Chapter 454 What a great opportunity
Chapter 454 What a great opportunity
Captain Tian Gu was so tired that he sat on a rock to rest and drink water.
Upon hearing the news, Captain Tian Gu's throat gushed out water.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
He coughed and gasped a few times, stood up angrily and threw the kettle heavily to the ground.
"Bagayalu, Bagayalu!"
"Damn Chinese, how dare they use the radio to deceive me, bakayarra!"
"Notify all surrounding troops to immediately intercept the pursuing tank convoy and transport convoy!"
The Japanese soldiers in the stronghold that had just let Yuan Shuai leave received the news and were so angry that they slammed the table and cursed.
"Baga, we've been fooled. They're not the Tiangu Detachment, they're the National Army! Chase them, chase them!"
There was only one battalion at the stronghold, so the Japanese captain had to send out two squadrons to cooperate with a battalion of puppet troops to pursue.
After all, the National Army has twelve tanks.
The Nationalist army was able to snatch twelve tanks and more than forty transport vehicles intact from the tank soldiers of the Tiangu Detachment, and even slipped away right under their noses.
It can be imagined that the number of people in this national army is at least more than a thousand people, and their combat effectiveness is quite strong.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to defeat a tank squadron, let alone seize all the tanks.
However, the Japanese squadron leader did not think so much and kept urging the puppet troops in front to speed up.
The puppet army battalion commander deliberately slowed down and even ran to the Japanese squadron leader.
He said as he ran.
"Taijun, that was the tank squadron of the Tiangu Detachment. Together with the baggage train, there should be more than a thousand people! You know better than me how powerful the Tiangu Detachment is. They were able to kill the tank squadron and baggage train of the Tiangu Detachment, and even robbed all the tanks. This shows that these nationalist troops are really good at fighting!"
"Our two teams combined have less than a thousand people, and they have tanks, twelve tanks! Even if we catch up to them, if their tanks turn around, can we defeat them? Moreover, the Kuomintang army is very cunning. If they plant mines on the ground, the consequences will be disastrous!"
The Japanese squadron was accompanied by a Japanese translator wearing glasses.
After the translator translated the words, the squadron leader broke out in a cold sweat on his back and quickly stopped.
"idiot!"
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and shouted loudly.
"Tell your people to continue to hold the front! Remember, the Kuomintang army has seized some cunningly, so you guys, be careful!"
"Hey! You have to be careful!"
The puppet army battalion commander quickly ran to the front, shouting loudly, asking the team to slow down.
He didn't want to be cannon fodder for the Japanese at the front.
If the tank turns around, the first to die will be these puppet army cannon fodder battalions.
However, what they didn't expect was that not long after Yuan Shuai turned the fork in the road, he asked the soldiers on the top of the cars and tanks to get off, and let the soldiers who had been running behind them get on the cars. This exchange could allow the brothers to recover their strength better.
At the same time, a squad of brothers was arranged to quickly plant mines on the road.
Although the puppet troops behind were slow, they finally arrived here.
Several puppet soldiers triggered the booby trap.
Several cluster booby traps exploded on both sides of the road.
A large number of puppet soldiers from an entire platoon were killed or wounded in the explosion.
The dead were lying motionless in a pool of blood, while the living were lying on the ground, covering their bleeding wounds and wailing in pain.
The puppet soldiers behind were so scared that they quickly scattered and hid.
Looking at the smoke ahead, and the corpses and wounded on the ground.
The Japanese squadron leader broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
"Damn it! There really is a landmine on this road!"
The puppet army battalion commander who was not far ahead was so frightened that his face turned pale, cold sweat broke out, and his whole body was shaking.
"Damn it, my bad mouth actually has a thunder!"
"Don't move, let Taijun come over to clear the mines!"
The puppet army battalion commander quickly ran back to find his father Taijun.
But who knew that the Japanese did not bring any engineers this time.
The Japanese squadron leader shouted at him.
"Bakayalu, there are no engineers in our team! Let your men clear the mines!"
"Taijun, we don't even know how to clear mines!"
"Bagayalu, get down on the ground and use your bayonet!"
"I……"
"idiot!"
The Japanese squadron leader slapped him hard on the face.
"Hi Yi!"
The puppet army battalion commander had no other choice but to turn back and have a squad of soldiers lie on the ground in front, stabbing the ground with flashlights and bayonets.
But these puppet soldiers had only seen the Japanese clearing mines, but had never experienced actual combat.
They were so scared that their faces turned pale, and they were shaking with cold sweat.
However, Yuan Shuai had limited time, so he only set up a booby trap line on the road, and used this booby trap line to place several linked cluster grenades on both sides of the road.
The puppet soldiers lay on the ground and poked the ground with bayonets for a long time but did not find any mines or booby traps.
When the Japanese saw that there were no more mines ahead, they allowed the puppet troops to continue advancing in the front.
During this time of delay, Yuan Shuai's tank troops and convoy had already moved forward a long way.
In the distance, a reinforced cavalry company was galloping wildly in the jungle.
Hearing the sound of the explosion, Company Commander Du Er stopped his horse, looked towards the direction of the minefield where the sound came from, and shouted loudly.
"This way, quick!"
The team quickly ran in the direction.
After a long time, the team reached the top of a hillside.
Seeing the flashlight on the road from a distance, Du Er gritted his teeth and cursed in a deep voice.
"Finally found you, you damned little devils!"
"Captain, why can't you see the tank lights?"
Du Er shouted angrily.
"There are too many hillsides blocking the way. However, since the Japanese are heading that way, General Yuan's team must be in front of this road. Notify the brigade commander and contact General Yuan!"
When General Yuan received the news, he immediately ordered Du Er to quickly make a detour and fight guerrilla warfare, and then retreat after the battle!
Du Er was immediately delighted when he heard this, and quickly led his more than 200 horsemen to make a detour forward.
After all, there were local people in his team, and even in the middle of the night, they could still recognize the road under the starlight.
The team quickly came to a hill in front and set up an ambush.
When the Japanese puppet troops arrived, more than a hundred grenades were thrown out, and at the same time, more than twenty Czech machine guns fired crazily.
After firing a magazine, the team quickly retreated and rode away.
By the time the Japanese opened fire to fight back, the team had already retreated.
After firing for a while, the Japanese puppet troops had no choice but to cease fire.
However, seeing so many corpses and wounded soldiers lying on the ground again, the Japanese and puppet troops were so angry that they cursed.
One of the two squadron leaders was also shot dead.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining Japanese squadron leader could only let the troops rest on the spot, treat the wounded, and no longer pursue them.
Du Er and others were extremely happy.
More than two hundred people, a sneak attack, caused at least nearly five hundred casualties to the Japanese puppet army.
However, someone on the road was muttering in dissatisfaction.
"Captain, we had a chance to completely wipe them out!"
"Why did you take us away?"
“What a great opportunity this is!”
