I rise from the sword

Chapter 66 It's Yang Lin Again
Yang Lin knew what the monk was thinking, and he asked with a smile, "What? Do you think my independent battalion's equipment is too poor?"

The monk is a straight person, and he didn't hide anything, he said directly: "Sir, look at your clothes, you don't even have formal military uniforms, you should just be a motley crew affiliated with the 358th Regiment, right?"

Yang Lin said: "That's right, my independent battalion is indeed only attached to the 358th Regiment, not only did it not issue weapons and equipment to us, it didn't even have military uniforms.

The military uniforms we wear now were borrowed from the Eighth Route Army. "

The monk said: "It seems that what I expected was right. Your department is indeed a motley army like the guerrilla troops of the Eighth Route Army."

"you can say it this way."

Yang Lin nodded, and asked again: "By the way, you were the sergeant squad leader of the 72nd Division before you were captured?"

"Yes."

Although the monk didn't understand why Yang Lin asked such a question, he still nodded.

Yang Lin said again: "It is said that your division was defeated by the Japanese Sakata Regiment in the Battle of Xinkou?"

"Yes."

The monk's face became a little unnatural. After all, this incident was a great shame for him and the entire 72nd Division.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Yang Lin's mouth, and he continued: "Then do you want to seek revenge from Sakata United?"

"Of course I want to, even in my dreams!"

The monk nodded firmly. He seemed to have thought of something, and asked again: "Could you help me deal with the Sakata Alliance?"

Yang Lin deliberately pretended to be aggressive, and the Ma Gan next to him understood, and sneered, "What is the Sakata Alliance, their leader Sakata Shinzhe is the defeat of our battalion commander!"

The monk said incredulously, "How is this possible? Not even a single division of the Central Army is an opponent of the Bantian United. How could your independent battalion defeat the Bantian United?"

Ma Gan proudly said: "We not only defeated the Sakata Alliance, but even the old devil Sakata Shinzhe was captured by us."

"Sir, is this true?"

The monk looked at Yang Lin with hope, hoping to get a positive answer from him.

"Whether it's true or not, you'll find out when you go out and inquire about it."

"For this matter, the devil offered a reward of 5 yuan for my head. By the way, the price has been raised to 10 yuan now."

After a pause, Yang Lin said again: "In addition, I have detected the news of the remnants of Bantian United, and I am planning to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

How about it?Are you interested in joining my independent camp now? "

"In that case, I'm with you!"

The monk worships the strong and is also a cheerful person. After learning about Yang Lin's brilliant record, he immediately agreed.

Good guy, that face changed faster than turning the pages of a book.

"That's fine, I happen to be short of a guard, so you can be there for now."

Yang Lin patted the monk's shoulder with satisfaction, then turned to look at the rest of the people, and asked, "How are you doing, are you interested in following me?"

"Sir, we are with you!"

The crowd agreed in unison.

Leaving aside Yang Lin's brilliant record, just saying that Yang Lin is their savior, most of them would not refuse Yang Lin's invitation.

At this time, a platoon leader Shi Laosan came over: "Battle Commander, we had a total of 36 casualties in this battle. Among them, 15 were killed, 11 were seriously injured, and 10 were slightly injured."

"In addition, the brothers in the prison camp had a total of 73 casualties. Among them, 48 were killed, 10 were seriously injured, and 15 were slightly injured."

Shi Laosan's face was a little heavy. Compared with the smooth sailing of the Wanjia Town battle, the casualties in today's battle were too great.

And he also truly experienced the cruelty of war.

Yang Lin patted Shi Laosan on the shoulder solemnly, and said: "War is not a child's play, it is always accompanied by death and bloodshed.

Write down the names of those brothers who died in battle, and send 100 yuan of cash pension to each of their families. "

"Yes!"

Shi Lao san nodded heavily.

Yang Lin said again: "The devil's reinforcements are on their way, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, evacuate immediately!"

"Yes!"

The crowd clapped.

They simply cleaned up the battlefield, counted out the loot that could be taken away, and then set fire to the prisoner-of-war camp.

……

two hours later.

Kazuki Yamamoto came late. He looked at the ruined prisoner-of-war camp, his face was so gloomy that he could almost drip water.

He turned his head to look at the major officer who arrived here first, and asked, "Mr. Koizumi, who did this?"

Major Koizumi didn't dare to look directly at Kazuki Yamamoto's man-eating gaze, and lowered his head, he said, "Back to Your Excellency, this place is already like this when the humble officer arrived. Since no one was found alive, I don't know the specifics of the enemy. identity."

After a pause, Koizumi continued: "However, I have already sent troops to chase after them, and at the same time followed your instructions to strengthen the vigilance of the nearby checkpoints.

Therefore, I believe that the whereabouts of this Chinese army will be found soon! "

"Damn it! I don't care which unit of the China Army you are, just wait to be destroyed!"

Kazuki Yamamoto's heart is bleeding. His special agent team has only 4 squadrons in total, with a total of more than 80 people. Now he doesn't even know who the enemy is, so he lost an elite squadron.

How can Kazuki Yamamoto, who is proud and arrogant, not be hurt?

He gritted his teeth, clenched his right hand into a fist, and his fingernails were almost caught in the flesh.

……

the other side.

After Yang Lin and the others left the prisoner-of-war camp, they chose to walk along unoccupied trails. Although there were several small-scale battles with the devil's pursuit troops, these were only small groups of devils.

In the end, after several bloody battles, the Independent Battalion successfully escaped their pursuit and returned to the area controlled by the Jinsui Army.

……

noon the next day.

Taiyuan.

Japanese 1st Army Headquarters.

Yoshio Shinozuka was playing Go with his chief of staff Toshi Miyano, halfway through the game, Kazuki Yamamoto hurried in from the outside.

"Your Excellency, Commander, Your Excellency Chief of Staff!"

Yoshio Shinozuka looked up and asked, "Yamamoto-kun, have the Chinese troops that attacked the prisoner-of-war camp been wiped out?"

"Return to Your Excellency Commander, no."

"No?"

Yoshio Shinozuka's face showed a bit of displeasure, not because of the importance of this prisoner-of-war camp, but because of doubts about Kazuki Yamamoto's ability.

"Hay!"

Kazuki Yamamoto suddenly nodded, and immediately said: "However, I have already found out which unit of the Chinese Army attacked the prisoner-of-war camp."

Shinozuka Yoshio asked indifferently: "Which army is it?"

Kazuki Yamamoto said: "It's the Independent Battalion of the 358th Regiment of the China Jinsui Army."

"Independent Battalion of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army?" Toshi Miyano, who was sitting opposite Yoshio Shinozuka, said, "I know Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment, and he is one of the few military talents in the Chinese Army.

However, this person has always been very principled and conservative in doing things, so he shouldn't do things like leading a surprise attack.

In particular, the target is still in the hinterland of the imperial army's control area. "

Kazuki Yamamoto said: "You don't know, Chief of Staff. It was not Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment, who led the attack on the prisoner-of-war camp, but Yang Lin, the battalion commander of the Independent Battalion!"
