Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Chapter 901

"Organize the remaining soldiers in the barracks and fight the enemy at the gate!" Major Fukuda gave the order. Since there was no way to survive, they had to fight the enemy. He would rather die in battle.

"Hi!" The Japanese soldier nodded.

Soon, the remaining twenty or so Japanese soldiers in the military camp all came to the bunker at the entrance of the camp and were ready for battle.

At this time, several city gates had been breached by the soldiers of the special operations battalion.

On the walkway on the city wall, Japanese and puppet soldiers were lying in all directions, blood splattered on the stone bricks, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.

Many wounded puppet soldiers fell to the ground and wailed, while the uninjured puppet soldiers threw their guns to the ground and squatted down skillfully with their heads covered.

Before the soldiers from the special operations battalion came up, they were already shouting surrender.

Seeing this, Li Jin did not kill these surrendered puppet troops.

"Listen to me, everyone. If anyone dares to bully the common people in the future, I will never let him go! Do you understand?" Li Jin said loudly with a murderous look on his face.

"Understood, understood." The puppet soldiers nodded repeatedly, fearing that they would be beaten to death.

After having someone shoot the Japanese corpse again, Li Jin led his men down and quickly rushed towards the direction of the Japanese central military camp.

Looking at the backs of Li Jin and his men as they left, the puppet soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and some even wet their pants.

"I was so scared, I almost thought I was going to see the King of Hell."

"Damn, these people are the same group as the ones who attacked the city last time. They are so powerful."

"No doubt about it, it must be them. The Japanese were beaten so badly that they had no chance to fight back."

"They also continued to shoot the Japanese, each time hitting their heads. They had no intention of giving them a chance to survive."

The puppet soldiers were talking among themselves, their clothes already soaked with cold sweat.

"It's too dangerous to be a traitor. I just want to make a living, but I don't want to work for the Japanese." A puppet soldier couldn't help but say.

He was really scared when he saw his previously alive teammate beaten to death and turned into a corpse in such a short time.

"Or, let's not do it anymore. It's too scary." Another puppet soldier suggested.

"Not wanting to do it?! Do you think you can just stop doing it?! Your family members are all in the city. If you take off this dog skin today, you will be killed by the Japanese tomorrow!" said a puppet army squad leader.

Since they started out as traitors, it is not so easy to change their mind now. The Japanese will never let them go.

"What should we do? ! ! I don't want to encounter the situation today again. Look at them, they all died with their eyes open. I don't want to be one of them!" One puppet soldier wanted to cry when he said this. He didn't want to die.

The teammates lying on the ground all died with their eyes open, and their deaths were very tragic.

"I don't think the devils in the city can escape. They will definitely be killed.
Why don't we take this opportunity to take our families away? I don't believe the Japanese will send people to hunt us down just for us." Someone suggested.

"What if the other devils come back before we run away?!"

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this and gave up the idea. If they ran away and ran into the returning Japanese, they would be dead.

.........

The explosion of the shells not only alarmed the Japanese, but also woke up the sleeping civilians.

"What's going on?! Who's calling?!"

"I don't know, could it be the same troop from last time?!"

"It should be. It looks like the devils in the city are going to be in trouble again."

"Strange, how come they arrived so timely? The Japanese army had just left for a few days and they attacked us."

…………

Before Li Jin and his men arrived at the military camp, they sent someone to climb into the camp from the back. However, Major Fukuda didn't know this and continued to wait at the gate of the camp.

bang bang bang...

Da da da………

Gunshots suddenly rang out from behind, killing more than a dozen Japanese soldiers on the spot, and grenades fell into their bunkers.

Boom boom boom......

Explosions were heard one after another, and all the Japanese soldiers at the gate of the military camp were blown to the ground. Before they could recover, soldiers from the special operations battalion quickly stepped forward and stabbed them to death with bayonets.

From the attack to the end, it took less than half a minute.

Major Fukuda fell to the ground with his eyes open. He was covered in blood and his arms were blown off by a grenade.

Li Jin and his men also quickly entered the military camp, and some soldiers began to search the camp to prevent any Japanese from hiding in the dark and ambush them.

"Battalion Commander, we've searched everywhere, and there are no Japs." A soldier came to report.

"Yeah." Li Jin nodded and brought people to the warehouse. The last time they came, they moved a lot of supplies away but did not move all of them. It is estimated that they will not be able to move all of the supplies this time.

Moreover, they couldn’t take anything away because they already had a lot of supplies. If they hadn’t brought any supplies, they could have taken them away.

Li Jin fell into deep thought for a moment. He felt reluctant to just burn the supplies in the warehouse.

"Never mind, move it. Move it away first, and then hide the supplies." Li Jin gave the order decisively. It would be a waste if so many supplies were not moved.

What a pity! If Kong Sheng and the others were here, they could have moved all the supplies.

Not long after, Liu Changshun, Lu Changgong and others also rushed to the warehouse and joined the moving work.

But there were indeed a lot of supplies in this warehouse, and there were also several howitzers, which made Li Jin very envious.

But this thing is too heavy to take with me.

"A 150mm howitzer, this thing is not small." Liu Changshun sighed.

"Yes, it's just too heavy. We have to blow it up." Li Jin sighed and ordered people to blow up several howitzers.

Afterwards, Li Jin had people pour gasoline on the materials that could not be moved, and then burned the materials in the warehouse.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky and flames shot up into the sky.

Li Jin and his men came out of the military camp with a bunch of supplies.

Just then, a young man suddenly emerged from the street ahead.

"Don't move! Put your hands up!" As soon as he appeared, he was discovered by the soldiers of the special operations battalion, who immediately raised their guns and aimed at the boy.

They would not let down their guard just because the other party was a teenager. Who knows if the other party might be carrying a bomb. "Don't shoot, don't shoot, I'm a good person, I'm a good person!" The teenager raised his hands quickly and shouted loudly.

"Put down the gun." Li Jin ordered.

Several soldiers from the special operations battalion then pointed their guns downwards, but they still stared at the boy vigilantly.

"Why are you running out so late at night instead of staying at home?" Li Jin asked the young man.

"I want to join you and fight the Japanese together! Please accept me!" The young man quickly stated his purpose.

He also wanted to join the army to fight the Japanese and defend his country. He thought other troops were too weak, and he felt that this army that had captured Xiangyang twice was very powerful.

"I don't have time to take you with me now. If you want to join the army, go find other troops. Go home now!" Li Jin said. They didn't have time to recruit soldiers now.

Bringing this kid along would be a burden.

"Please accept me, I really want to fight the Japanese with you. My parents were killed by the Japanese, and my brother was also killed by the Japanese. Now I am the only one left, and I want revenge!" Zhao Erming pleaded seriously!
Li Jin also learned from the system that what this kid said was indeed the truth.

"Why don't you take this kid in? If he can't run, the soldiers can take turns carrying him." Liu Changshun couldn't bear it when he heard that.

"Come with us." Li Jin said to the young man.

This young man had a blood feud with the Japanese devils, and it would be unjustifiable if he did not accept the gift. During this period, there were many people like this young man, whose family members were brutally killed by the Japanese devils, so they chose to join the army to avenge their families.

"Thank you, thank you!" Zhao Erming was very happy. Finally, he could fight the Japanese too.

"Let's go!" Li Jin gave the order, and everyone left carrying the supplies.

…………

At this time, Minamida Morikazu was still anxiously waiting for news, and he had already asked someone to send a telegram to the brigade commander.

"Captain of the regiment, the brigade commander sent a telegram! Something big has happened, Xiangyang has been attacked by the enemy!" The Japanese lieutenant colonel lifted the curtain and walked into the tent, speaking directly, his face full of seriousness and heaviness.

"What?!" Minamida Morikazu was stunned when he heard that.

"The fact that Xiangyang was attacked by the enemy means that the enemy has been playing tricks on us from the beginning to the end!" the Japanese lieutenant colonel continued.

In other words, the enemy deliberately exposed their position in order to lure them out and then attack Xiangyang, while at the same time making fun of them.

"We underestimated them after all." Nan Tian Shouyi sighed helplessly. The enemy's attack on Xiangyang meant that the enemy already knew that they were ambushing.

The enemy's next step after capturing Xiangyang is probably to retreat by a detour.

"Yes, fortunately the enemy attacked early, otherwise, once the division commander and his men completed their deployment, it would mean a huge consumption of manpower and material resources.
"Captain, you will at most be scolded, nothing else should happen." The Japanese lieutenant colonel consoled him.

"Well, does that mean I should thank the enemy?!" Minamida Morikazu asked back.

If the enemy did not attack Xiangyang but instead took a detour, he would probably be caught in the trap.

To some extent, he really had to thank the commander of this army. Although Xiangyang was captured, he would not suffer too severe punishment.

"The commander of this unit has an extremely flexible mind. He plans several steps at a time. We are acting completely according to the opponent's rhythm." The Japanese lieutenant colonel felt a little scared.

Not only is the combat effectiveness of this unit terrifyingly strong, it also has a commander who is good at conspiracy and intrigue. It is extremely difficult to defeat the opponent.

Especially since the other party was always in the dark, and this exposure was intentional.

"We have no way to deal with this army." Minamida Morikazu felt a little tired. He thought that others were idiots, but in fact, they were the stupidest ones who easily fell into the enemy's trap.

"In fact, it's not us. It's because this unit caused us too many casualties. So when we learned of the enemy's whereabouts,

I just wanted to annihilate the enemy as quickly as possible and avenge the soldiers who died in battle, but I didn't consider many things.

In general, we were blinded by anger. After all, we suffered too much loss in this unit." The Japanese lieutenant colonel began to analyze one by one.

Anger dominated their minds, so that they could not see the enemy's simple plan. Even the division commander was affected by anger, or rather, not only the division commander but also the higher-level officers were affected by anger.

No one would remain calm after learning of this troop's whereabouts.

"Yes." Nan Tianshou nodded in agreement. In fact, he just wanted to destroy this army to prove himself.

However, this time not only did they fail to prove their abilities, but they were fooled by the enemy. It had only been more than a month since Xiangyang was captured last time, and it was captured again.

It's a complete disgrace to the empire.

"Pass the order down and let the soldiers set off. We are going back to Xiangyang." Nan Tian Shouyi said.

"Captain, are we setting off now? There's no need. It will be too late for us to go back." said the Japanese lieutenant colonel.

From the time he learned that Xiangyang was attacked until now, he knew without a doubt that Xiangyang must have been lost, and there was no point in rushing now.

"Well, let's go back early to deal with the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle." Nan Tian Shouyi explained that if they traveled day and night, they would be able to return to Xiangyang the day after tomorrow morning.

"Okay." The Japanese lieutenant colonel nodded in agreement and was about to leave, but then stopped.

"Captain, the brigade commander said that the division commander has canceled the opportunity for encirclement." The Japanese lieutenant colonel almost forgot to mention this.

"As expected." Minamida Morikazu said. The enemy had already guessed that they were going to encircle them, and would definitely choose to take a detour to leave. If they still wanted to adapt to the plan at this time, they would be fools.

.........

The next morning, Li Jin and his companions had already left Xiangyang far away and entered the mountains.

"Xiao Liu, ask the telegraph operator to send a coded message saying, thank you for the supplies you sent to Xiangyang, I will take a detour and leave first.
I wish you guys eat well, drink well, and sleep well on the road to the siege, and don’t miss me too much.” Li Jin couldn’t help laughing when he said this.

"Battalion Commander, isn't your telegram a bit too hurtful?" Liu Changshun couldn't help laughing after hearing it.

The battalion commander also thanked the other party and wished him a good meal, which was simply rubbing salt into the wounds of the Japanese. How could the Japanese sleep well now?

"Damn it?! It's okay." Li Jin responded with a smile. Since he had already offended the Japs, he might as well offend them more thoroughly. He liked to see the Japs looking helpless and furious.

"It's a big loss, Battalion Commander. I'm going to send a telegram." Liu Changshun said, turned around and left.

At this time, Zhao Erming came over.

"Battalion Commander, can I ask what unit we are from?!" Zhao Erming looked curious.

"What kind of unit do you think we are?!" Li Jin asked back.

"Hmm... the National Army?! But, the National Army doesn't seem to have such a powerful force. Could it be the Eighth Route Army?! That's not likely either. Could it be the Northeast Army?! I heard someone speak in what sounds like Northeastern dialect." Zhao Erming thought about it and made two guesses, but both seemed wrong. In the end, he felt that Li Jin and his men were from the Northeast Army.

"Remember, we are the Eighth Route Army." Li Jin responded with a smile.

"Ah?! Are you the Eighth Route Army?!" Zhao Erming was stunned when he heard this.

"Well, you'll understand when we get to the base. Also, you should say we are the Eighth Route Army, not you." Li Jin nodded and emphasized again that Zhao Erming is now one of them.
