Bright Sword's Minion Interspersed

Chapter 184 A Bad Premonition

(One)

"General! General! General!" Songshan ran in in a panic, and reported: "The staff is opening champagne, and it is said that Yan Xishan was killed by the bombing. General, what happened?"

"Blow up Yan Xishan?" Yoshio Shinozuka sneered, and said without thinking, "It's absolutely impossible."

After a pause, Yoshio Shinozuka looked at Yamamoto and said, "Arrange a pilot with night flight experience for me, and make an appointment for the fastest takeoff time."

"Yes!" Yamamoto nodded. As for whether Hanagu should be notified, the commander didn't say, and Yamamoto didn't intend to ask.

Matsuyama looked suspiciously at Yamamoto, who shrugged.

"Yamamoto-kun, what did you want to say just now?" Shinozuka Yoshio asked.

Yamamoto frowned and looked at Yoshio Shinozuka, and said, "General, I have a bad feeling that the pontoon bridge may have been removed and hidden, but... this may not be the worst, anyway. ,not feeling well……"

(two)

It doesn't feel good, and it's not just Kazuki Yamamoto in Taiyuan.

On the outskirts of the Gaobiling bunker group, Akito Oshima, who was looking around with a telescope, also didn't feel very good.

As soon as he left the gate of Lingshi County, he was blocked by eight groups. Although Akito Oshima was nervous at that time, he was more excited. Anyway, his judgment was right!

However, inexplicably, the blockade suddenly failed!
And it was still in the evening, and there was a whole night plus a day before the rain stopped!
Rainy days and nights, this is clearly the last window period for the Eighth Route Army, but why did they suddenly leave?
Akito Oshima did not advance rashly. He waited until dawn before carefully ordering the engineering troops to clear the mines and advance. Then it took another whole day until the afternoon of April 4th before arriving at the Gaobiling bunker group.

After the rendezvous, Akito Oshima listened to the report from Inoue, the team leader who served as the garrison, and also conducted a detailed survey of the surrounding terrain of the Gaobiling bunker group.

The barbed wire has been blasted into four or five gaps, and the earthworks using the trenches have been advanced to a distance of 50 meters from the outer bunker. Judging from the remains on the site, the eighth road evacuated very calmly, and only a few damaged ones were left behind. pick and shovel!

If they blocked the normal attack normally, although they may not be able to completely destroy this strong bunker group, according to their attack routine on the Huting to Baicun stronghold group, it is definitely possible to blow up a few small bunkers on the periphery.

According to the report of the garrison in the stronghold, on the night when the attacking troops withdrew, some people did pass through the bottom of the valley, but the defenders in the main stronghold have been firing flares and guiding machine guns to shoot, so it is absolutely impossible for a large number of people to pass through!

In the early morning of April 4, Taiyuan informed that the bombers and reconnaissance planes had given priority to going to Heyuan County and Lingshui County, as well as the Huting to Xiacun stronghold group, which suffered more heavy losses.

(three)

Akito Oshima was not conservative either. He launched reconnaissance and deployment near the Huting stronghold group, searched and occupied three or four surrounding hills that could block the road at the bottom of the valley, deployed troops and firepower points, and let engineers The troops erected pontoon bridges on the spot and seized several highlands on the other side of Fen River...

seize?Is this the right word?

The Eighth Route has established blocking positions on at least three highlands across the Fenshui River, with trenches and sandbag parapets on them. Judging from the level of water in the trenches, preparations began at least three days ago.

However, they actually gave up!
Akito Oshima asked the soldiers to be cautious, and strictly checked the trenches and simple fortifications. After confirming that there were no mines and explosives, they arranged to be stationed and re-reinforced according to the infantry drill code.

Why give up?Could it be that they have already completed the breakout?
According to the news from Mr. Yamamoto Kazuki, Jiexiu County on the north side of this ancient post road, which has been abandoned for a long time, has also arranged troops to blockade the Lengquan Pass, and even further north to the Luliang Pass in Xiaoyi County. Many ambush positions with division-level troops have been deployed!
But there was no report of any exchange of fire from the north...

When the afternoon was approaching the highlight, a light liaison plane flew over from the upper reaches of the valley and circled several times. Although Akito Oshima's communication equipment could not communicate directly with the plane, it was clear that the plane flapped left and right before continuing to fly south. The movement of the wings showed that he did not find the place where Balu was hiding!
Akito Oshima raised his binoculars suspiciously, looked at the towering peak on the opposite bank, and at the main peak of Suoyue Mountain, the commanding height of more than 1300 meters above sea level. Akito Oshima did not arrange troops to search and seize it, because it was useless!The road cannot be blocked there, so what can you do if you go there?

But Akito Oshima always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with that mountain with sparse trees, but theoretically, any normal commander would be unlikely to put his troops and firepower on it!

The reinforcements here include three infantry squadrons, an infantry artillery squadron, a mountain artillery squadron, and a guard squadron sent by the commander of the Fujii brigade, plus an infantry squadron and an imperial association army company in the bunker group , There are already almost a thousand troops!
But where did the Eighth Route Army go?

Didn't it mean that it has been confirmed by fingering that it is the No. 1 radio station of the Eighth Route Army headquarters?

Didn't it mean that from Lingshui County to here, there are a total of more than ten or twenty institutions that use radio stations in a vast area that stretches for one to two hundred kilometers?
Where did everyone on Bageya Road go?God?Into the ground?

(four)

A round of red sun slowly sank towards the west mountain, and it was almost dusk, and the day passed in such a daze.

Akito Oshima's binoculars looked at the back of the three highland firepower points with horns on the other side of the river. At a distance of more than 500 meters behind the three firepower points, Akito Oshima arranged two troops and a mortar position. .

Now there is a faint smoke rising there. For two days, the soldiers have been eating cold rice balls. Today's dinner is finally able to drink hot soup...

"Hi! Nakamura-san! Iguchi-san! You all send someone to take down the lunch box first! I'll pack it for you first!" A cooking soldier yelled at the soldiers on the high ground thoughtfully.

"These guys! Are you treating it as a vacation?" Akito Oshima was a little dissatisfied.

"Detachment leader! Detachment leader!" The guard shouted: "I'm looking for your number, Taiyuan, Yamamoto-kun!"

"Okay, I'll come right away!" Akito Oshima agreed, put down the binoculars, and took another look at the towering Suokey Peak with uneasiness.

Tomorrow, we still need to arrange troops to search this mountain, yes, I will ask Yamamoto-kun for this idea later!

"Puff! Puff! Puff!" Suddenly Akito Oshima vaguely heard a familiar voice!

It's a dull explosion, is it?Fire booster packs for mortars?

　Favorites are welcome, thanks for the recommendation!
