Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

During the Duanwu Festival, a group of people rode their horses quickly on the street.

The people on the road did not know the other party's identity, so they all gave way to make way for Duanwu and others.

The South Gate was in sight, and the Japanese and puppet troops were already waiting in full battle array outside the gate.

The city gates were closed, and the Japanese and puppet troops, with bullets loaded and bayonets shining, rushed into the city.

Duanwu gently pulled the reins to slow down the horse, and exchanged glances with Liu Jinbiao and others.

Liu Jinbiao and Ma Xiaoliu all nodded, because they had already expected this scene.

Due to the delay of Wang Laoliu and others, they missed the best time to leave the city.

However, this did not pose a problem for Duanwu. Because the enemy troops in Tongyu Town were not numerous, and the city wall was very thin, with a height of more than three meters and even people could not stand on it. Only five enemy soldiers and six or seven puppet soldiers built bunkers at the city gate and stayed inside.

In other words, although the Japanese at the city gate received the news, their manpower was weak and they had not had time to send reinforcements.

  So what is there to be afraid of when facing a dozen Japanese and puppet troops?

He led the way, suddenly gave his horse a kick, and the warhorse he was riding rushed towards the city gate like an arrow. Liu Jinbiao and others followed closely behind, the sound of their horses' hooves like thunder and their momentum like a rainbow.

When the Japanese and puppet troops saw this, they cried out in surprise, gunfire rang out, and bullets rained down on Duanwu and others.

However, Duanwu and others had already made preparations. They hid under the horses' bellies and fired, and every shot hit the target.

The Japanese and puppet troops were shot one after another, and the first to be killed was the devil's machine gunner.

Once the Japanese machine gunner died, the Japanese and puppet troops became nothing more than a piece of cake in the eyes of Duanwu and others.

Duanwu shot and killed seven Japanese and puppet soldiers in succession, and whichever Japanese and puppet soldier was about to open fire would be the first to be shot and killed on the spot.

In the end, all the Japanese were killed, and Yukimura's puppet soldiers simply dropped their guns and knelt on the ground in surrender.

At this time, Duanwu did not rush out of the city gate but dismounted and asked the three puppet soldiers with a smile: "You are quite skilled in your job?"

The puppet soldier stammered, "Ying, hero, I, we were also forced. I have old people and children at home, please spare my life?"

Duanwu picked up the enemy's machine gun and put the magazine on his waist, saying, "I'll spare you this time, but you'll die the same next time we meet. It's better to die early and reincarnate sooner so you don't have to be so scared."

When the puppet soldiers heard this, they immediately looked bitter.

But one of them was very smart. He quickly took off his clothes and said, "I don't want to wear this dog skin anymore. I will go home and take my wife and children away from Tongyu Town. Please show mercy, hero."

Duanwu nodded and said, "You are very smart, let's go!"

The other two puppet soldiers also took off their clothes and said, "Hero, we are going back home to farm. Please treat us like a fart!"

Duanwu also waved his hand, and the two puppet soldiers ran away in a panic.

Duanwu looked at the puppet soldiers fleeing in panic and shouted, "Keep your word. There won't be a next time."

"He's a hero, he's a hero!"

Several puppet soldiers quickly turned around to express their gratitude, and then ran away in a flash.

Liu Jinbiao picked up a Japanese Type 38 rifle and said, "Leader Ye is a little merciful."

Duanwu nodded and said, "Yes, that's a bit merciful."

But at this moment, Li Ergou rolled his eyes and said, "Leader Ye, are you trying to kill people and destroy their hearts?"

Liu Jinbiao also realized that Leader Ye deliberately let these three puppet soldiers go back to create panic and make the Japanese and puppet troops in Tongyu Town lose their composure.

Thinking of this, Liu Jinbiao gave a thumbs up.

However, at this time, Duanwu had already mounted his horse and said, "Let's go, the Japs are chasing us." Liu Jinbiao and Li Ergou looked and saw that a group of Japs and puppet troops were rushing towards the South Gate without stopping.

But when they arrived at the South Gate, Duanwu, Liu Jinbiao and Li Ergou had already left, leaving only a group of Japanese soldiers cursing there.

As for chasing, forget it, two legs can never outrun four legs.

So the Japs could only pick up the bodies of their companions and then report to their headquarters that someone had stolen medicine from the hospital and killed and wounded the Imperial Army.

Of course, this is the Japanese's business, and if Duanwu and others want to return to the base, they still need to overcome many difficulties.

And this time when he goes back, Duanwu doesn’t need to hide anything.

We didn't want to have a head-on conflict with the Japs when we entered the enemy-occupied area before, because they wanted to steal medicine. If our whereabouts were exposed, the Japs would definitely be on guard.

But it’s different on the way back. Duanwu can fight his way back.

But Duanwu had another little idea.

If we fight back from somewhere else, it seems that it has nothing to do with the bandits in Fenghuang Mountain. The devils will think it was the guerrillas who did it.

This is not right. Since they came from the bandits' territory, they naturally have to go back to the bandits' territory.

However, this is not easy, because last time, Duanwu took Liu Damazi to rush into the Japanese checkpoint, and he also took away all the savings of the Japanese officers. It would be strange if the Japanese officers did not get furious.

But today, we saw that the Japanese officer was really furious. I don't know where he asked for reinforcements from, and it seemed like there were a lot of them.

Before, there were only a dozen Japanese soldiers and about twenty puppet soldiers at this checkpoint. But now, the number of Japanese soldiers has increased to 20 and the number of puppet soldiers has increased to 30.

There were more than fifty people in total, and they built fortifications. They rushed towards Phoenix Mountain with sandbags and piled up two layers of sandbags more than one meter high.

There were four machine guns outside the defense zone, and two layers of barbed wire were pulled along the side of Phoenix Mountain.

But judging from the footprints left at the scene, the Japanese did not plant mines.

In fact, the Japanese did not have the habit of laying mines. They were the attacking party. Has anyone ever seen the attacking party laying mines for themselves?

Therefore, on the battlefield in China, Chinese soldiers use landmines more frequently.

At this time, although the Japs hated the bandits in Phoenix Mountain to the core, they had no habit of causing trouble for themselves.

Because there are four machine guns, how many bandits can rush over?

So there was no need for the Japanese to lay mines at all.

But it is obvious that the Japanese troops were not sufficient, otherwise after suffering such a great loss, they would definitely go into the mountains to carry out a raid.

But at this time, it was obvious that the Japanese had no such plan and were just defending.

Duanwu and others quietly lay on the hilltop less than a hundred meters behind the devils, quietly watching the Japanese and puppet troops who were still busy in the sunset.

Liu Jinbiao laughed and said, "Leader Ye, it seems this road is blocked."

Duanwu thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, it is very smooth."

As he spoke, Duanwu took the machine gun and also took Li Ergou's Mauser pistol, then he sneaked towards the Japanese sentry post alone.

Liu Jinbiao was nervous and was about to call Duanwu, but Li Ergou stopped him and said, "Next, it's up to our leader Ye to perform."

Liu Jinbiao still worriedly said: "There are so many Japanese puppet troops, and only Leader Ye is alone. Should we go and help him?"

Liu Ergou shook his head and said, "We would be a burden if we went. Our leader Ye is amazing!" (End of this chapter)
