The opening of the bright sword leads a battalion

Chapter 72

At night, the Sakata Alliance quietly surrounded them.

Fortunately, it was late at night, and they took a step back. The soldiers sent by Chu Qi had already sent the poisoned wounded to the field hospital overnight.

Along the way, the leading platoon leader was even more worried, because Chu Qi told him that he had to report the situation here to the brigade headquarters as soon as possible during his trip.

——The goal of the Sakata Regiment turned out not to be the Shuiyaozi Arsenal, but the Independent Regiment of the Military Division!

He needs to notify the brigade headquarters immediately and ask for help!

This statement seems crazy, but in fact, it is somewhat reasonable.

After all, the location of the Shuiyaozi Arsenal is a secret within the Eighth Route Army, how could it be easily known by the devils?Therefore, it is reasonable for the devils to attack the independent regiment of the military division.

Along the way, the platoon leader was also speeding up the march as much as possible. After leaving the station for a certain distance, he directly divided his troops into two groups, one to the brigade headquarters and the other to the field hospital.

The soldiers were divided into two groups, both of which were very urgent, and forced to march all night without stopping.

……

……

the other side.

As for Chu Qi's awareness of the approach of the Sakata Alliance, Staff Officer Yamada didn't know.

He never imagined that Chu Qi was so smart, and by such a coincidence, he happened to catch the deserter from the Sakata Regiment, and connected it with the poisoning incident.

At this moment, he is leading a Japanese army brigade, quietly approaching Weishui Village, the station of the independent regiment of the military division.

After approaching Weishui Village to a certain range, Yamada gestured to the soldiers behind him to stop.

One devil soldier didn't pay attention to Yamada's gesture, and knocked the helmet on his head directly onto Yamada's head.

Yamada covered his head, turned around and glared at the soldier with wide eyes.

Seeing this, the soldier hastily bowed his head and apologized.

Yamada stared for a while, and finally squeezed out a few words from his mouth.

"You, I remember you. When I attack tomorrow morning, you must be the first one for me!"

Yamada said furiously with a ferocious expression.

Hearing this, the soldier's expression turned bitter, but he couldn't help it.Within the Japanese army, the orders of the superiors absolutely cannot be disobeyed.

He had no choice but to bow his head and bow:

"Harmful……"

Hearing this, Yamada glared at the soldier again, and then relieved himself.He looked at the other soldiers behind him, and his expression immediately became serious again.

When it comes to serious matters, Yamada is not ambiguous, he said seriously:

"Soldier, let the troops build fortifications on the spot, keep the movement as small as possible!"

"We are close enough to Weishui Village, where the Eighth Route Army is stationed. If we go any further, we will be easily spotted by soldiers from the Eighth Route Army. Let's make preparations and attack tomorrow morning."

It was said that one of the soldiers made a "harmful" sound. He was an orderly soldier, so he naturally had to take the initiative to take over the task of notifying the troops.

When the other soldiers heard the words, they silently removed the engineering shovels from their backpacks, and silently began to dig the bunker trenches.

Naturally, trenches must be dug, otherwise, without the support of fortifications, the Sakata Regiment's encirclement of the independent regiment of the military division would easily be broken up and broken out by the Eighth Route Army.

As the chief of staff of an alliance, Yamada naturally knows this truth very well, and it is exactly the same, he will not give Chu Qi the slightest chance in this regard.

After giving orders for the construction of fortifications, Yamada thought for a while and came to the rear of the large army.

Here, eight [-]-type mortars are on display here, and beside the mortars is the newly added artillery squadron of the Bantian Wing.

Since the artillery squadron was attacked by the 772nd regiment and other troops last time, if it weren't for the special operation to be carried out this time, Commander Shinozuka might not necessarily have added artillery to the Sakata wing.

Because the Type [-] mortar is really expensive, and it is also a very precious weapon in the Japanese army.

And that's exactly what happened, after seeing these eight mortars...

Staff Officer Yamada couldn't help grinning. These eight mortars were the greatest guarantee for him to encircle and annihilate the Eighth Route Army this time, and they were also the most powerful firepower in the hands of the Sakata Regiment.

With these eight mortars, no matter what kind of fortifications the Eighth Route Army has set up, they will definitely be vulnerable to the imperial army of our empire.

……

……

at the same time.

After guessing that the Sakata Alliance was nearby, Chu Qi and Sun Nong discussed it, and they all agreed that it was the best choice for the large army to stay in Weishui Village.

After all, if the Japanese army was really nearby, it would definitely be too late to retreat. If a large force retreated, it would be difficult to hide their traces.In the end, sooner or later, the Japanese army will follow the trail and bite, and it will be even more difficult to escape.

Under such circumstances, the independent regiment of the military division might as well use Weishui Village's position to defend, so as to hold back the Sakata Wing and seek opportunities for the overall battle situation of the Eighth Route Army.

After all, a regiment-level Japanese army detoured to the hinterland of the base area through uninhabited mountainous areas, which was very bad for the Eighth Route Army.

If no one came to hold these devils back, then the Sakata Alliance would start to wreak havoc in the hinterland of the base area, and the final casualties would be unimaginable.

Not only will a large number of civilians who have not had time to retreat in the future be massacred, but even some unprepared Eighth Route Army troops will suffer heavy casualties under a sudden attack.

And this time...

A company of troops was arranged to patrol the whole village. Chu Qi and Sun Nong kept packing things at the regiment headquarters and stayed awake.

It was midnight at this time, and the Sakata Regiment had just started to build fortifications. At this time, an Eighth Route Army soldier passed the inspection of the regiment's sentry and walked into the regiment's headquarters.

The soldier's name was Chen Zhipeng, and he called Chu Qi. Hearing this, Chu Qi turned to look at Chen Zhipeng, and followed him to the outside of the regiment headquarters.

"how is the situation?"

After leaving the regiment headquarters, Chu Qi asked immediately.

Hearing this, Chen Zhipeng replied:
"The enemy indeed has nearly a regiment's strength, and they have surrounded the village at this time. I just took a closer look. The configuration of light and heavy weapons is basically at the regiment level, and it seems difficult to deal with. "

After hearing this, Chu Qi nodded solemnly, expressing his understanding.

He didn't doubt whether what Chen Zhipeng said was true or not.

After all, the one in front of him is the "night vision eye" recognized by the military sub-independence regiment. It is said that at night, in low-light environments, others cannot see things more than ten meters away, but Chen Zhipeng can see them.

Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, Chu Qi has heard before crossing that some color-weak and color-blind people can see more clearly than ordinary people at night.

He didn't know whether the Chen Zhipeng in front of him was color weak or colorblind, but in short, Chen Zhipeng's eyes could exert a huge effect in the night environment.

For example, now, Chu Qi has a panoramic view of some of the actions of the Sakata Alliance.
