Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2201 Sato’s incompetent roar!

The Japanese arrived at the guerrilla stronghold half an hour later, but found it empty.

Kitahara Hiroyuki guessed correctly. Their enemies did not try to stop them, but ran away.

Sato angrily ordered: "Search, these cunning guerrillas!"

Kitahara Hiroyuki was also very angry at this time because he was also fooled.

But he still had his wits about him, and ordered, "Send out sentries to guard and control all the commanding heights near the stronghold. The rest of you should search the stronghold carefully, beware that our enemies are still lurking in the stronghold. Also, there are traps, our enemies are very good at setting traps. Do you understand?"

"Hi!"

Several Japanese officers took the order and immediately went to pass it on.

At this time, Takahashi asked: "Kitahara-kun, are we too cautious? Remember when Sato-kun and I occupied the guerrillas' base, nothing happened. Isn't this the guerrillas' home? They will not destroy their own home."

Kitahara Hiroyuki sneered, "Takahashi-kun, our enemies will never remain the same. They are far more cunning than you and I can imagine."

"kindness!"

Takahashi nodded, and then stood in the front yard of the village with Sato and Kitahara Hiroyuki waiting for news.

The Japanese soldiers quickly occupied the commanding heights near the mountain stronghold, and the remaining Japanese soldiers began to search around the mountain stronghold to see if there were any hidden enemies.

A team of seven Japanese soldiers searched several wooden houses and found nothing, so they continued searching behind the houses.

One of the Japanese soldiers complained, "We thought we could rest for a while after entering the mountain stronghold, but we have to search again. We have searched so many places, but we found nothing. Isn't this new commander too cautious?"

"That's right! It wasn't like nothing happened when we occupied the guerrilla base before, right?"

Another Japanese soldier sighed: "Young officers are just unreliable. They are not as decisive as Mr. Sato!"

  ···········

A group of Japanese soldiers complained about Kitahara Hiroyuki's command ability while searching forward, but they saw an empty stable.

There were no horses in the stable anymore, but there were quite a few haystacks.

These are used to feed horses, but are also more suitable for Tibetans.

The Japanese soldiers gradually stopped smiling and became serious.

Although they complained about Kitahara Hiroyuki, it didn't mean that they were not alert at all.

Seeing so many haystacks, it would be easy for a dozen people to hide there.

So four of them stopped there, their guns loaded, while the other three used their bayonets to poke at the haystack.

If there was someone inside, they would definitely stab him to death with their bayonets.

After a while, all the haystacks were stabbed, but there was no blood on the bayonet and there was no feeling of stabbing anyone.

So one of the Japanese soldiers said, "It seems that there is no one here. We are too nervous."

Another Japanese soldier said, "There's a stable over there that can also be used to hide people. Let's go take a look and then leave!"

"Yeah, I remember when I was little I loved hiding in the stone trough in the stable. I still miss it when I think about it now!"

One of the Japanese soldiers sighed, chatting with the other two as they walked towards the stable. At this time, they were no longer as nervous as before, but completely relaxed. After all, there was no one in the haystack where people were most likely to hide, and the stone trough for feeding horses was so obvious, how could there be anyone hiding there?

Just as they approached the stable and stepped on the straw scattered on the ground, they heard a clicking sound under the feet of one of the Japanese soldiers.

The Japanese soldier was shocked, and the two Japanese soldiers beside him also heard it.

The three devils looked at each other, then turned around and tried to run.

But it was too late. After a loud bang, the whole stable began to shake.

The shock wave generated by the explosion directly blew away the three Japanese soldiers. His body drew a beautiful arc in the air and then fell heavily to the ground.

The other Japanese soldiers were frightened by the sudden explosion and hid behind the haystacks to avoid the flying shrapnel.

But even so, two Japanese soldiers were hit by shrapnel that penetrated the haystack and screamed in pain.

The leading Japanese soldier looked at the tragic scene in front of him with an angry expression on his face. He quickly pulled out the pistol from his waist and stared at the smoke and dust vigilantly, as if he was afraid that a few more enemies would emerge from the smoke and dust.

However, there was nothing around except flying dust and fallen companions.

There were no enemies in the stable, only booby traps left by the enemy.

"Baga! Damn Chinese."

The Japanese sergeant roared in helplessness, then ordered an uninjured and a lightly injured Japanese soldier to stay and rescue the wounded, while he quickly ran back to report to commanders such as Kitahara Hiroyuki and Sato about the discovery of booby traps in the mountain stronghold.

The old Japanese soldier Sato, Kitahara Hiroyuki, and Takahashi also heard the explosion. But after hearing the report from the Japanese soldier leader, they were still shocked: "What? Was the explosion just now a booby trap left by the enemy?"

The Japanese sergeant bowed and said, "Hey! Yes, sir!"

Kitahara Hiroyuki said to Sato with a serious expression: "Sato-kun, we should immediately order the imperial army to be more careful when searching."

Sato nodded and said, "I never thought the enemy would be so despicable as to place booby traps even in their own residence. Pass on my order, and have all the imperial troops beware of booby traps."

"Hi!"

A Japanese officer received the order and was about to pass on the message, but at this moment, there was a loud bang and another loud noise was heard.

In a wooden house less than 300 meters away from Sato, Kitahara Hiroyuki and others, flames suddenly shot up into the sky, and a huge fireball splashed out along with thick smoke and broken wood chips.

In the explosion, two Japanese soldiers who had just entered the wooden house were thrown out like dead dogs.

The two Japanese soldiers vomited blood when they landed on the ground. No one knew how many shrapnel had hit their bodies, and they looked like blood gourds.

The Japanese soldiers around were stunned by this sudden turn of events. They stood there in a daze, as if they were frozen in place, as if they could not accept the fact that their companions, who had just been talking and laughing together, turned into corpses in the next second.

Just then, Sato, Kitahara Hiroyuki and Takahashi arrived with their men.

They looked at the scene before them and were so angry that they were about to explode.

Because they saw that the entire mountain village was empty, but it still caused them casualties.

Sato's face turned pale, his fists clenched, and the veins on his hands could be clearly seen bulging. He suddenly raised his head and roared angrily at the sky: "Bakayalo, Chunjiang is a good guerrilla. If you have the guts, come and fight me head-on. What kind of hero are you if you hide your head and show your tail?"

  Colonel Sato's voice echoed in the valley for a long time, but no one responded. The Japanese soldiers could only hear Colonel Sato's own incompetent roar and a few startled birds in the distance! .
