Chapter four hundred and seventy-first devils draw troops back to defense
"beat!"
After the Japanese team entered the encirclement of Liu Gen and others without any defense, Liu Gen directly fired and issued an attack order.
The two Colt pistols were in Liu Gen's hands as if they had turned into automatic rifles. In less than thirty seconds, he wiped out all the magazines of the two pistols, and each bullet could successfully take away the life of a Japanese man. In addition, the other soldiers had submachine guns in their hands. They had good marksmanship, so they could naturally be able to deal with the unprepared Japanese squad.
"Roar up! Kill these Japanese devils! Leave a few live!" Seeing that the Japanese were killed instantly, Liu Gen took the initiative to charge with the soldiers.
The monk dropped the light machine gun in his arms, pulled out the big knife behind him and rushed towards the Japanese. The other soldiers rushed up quickly and forcibly engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese. There was no way to choose to fight with the Japanese. Liu Gen and others did not carry much ammunition. Even if they could successfully annihilate the Japanese team, they would consume a lot of bullets.
In order to save ammunition as much as possible and then be able to wait for the next order from the division headquarters, it is still very necessary to choose to use hand-to-hand combat to kill the remaining Japanese.
"Stop the gun and don't kill it! Throw down the weapons in your hands!" After killing the Japanese with one knife, Liu Gen shouted loudly in his somewhat awkward Japanese.
The remaining Japanese were a little hesitant. Liu Gen and others' firepower was too strong. More than 30 submachine guns launched an attack at close range. Naturally, the firepower was not something that this Japanese team could resist. It can be said that after being attacked by Liu Gen and others, the Japanese in this Japanese team were a little confused. They didn't understand what was going on.
For these Japanese devils, they could only see others around them falling down constantly, and bullets easily took away most of the Japanese devils' lives.
Most of the remaining Japanese devils were scared to death. Facing Liu Gen and others who rushed up to fight with them, they had no resistance. After seeing more and more Eighth Route Army soldiers rushing up to kill them here, the remaining Japanese began to shake. The hand-to-hand combat continued, and less than two minutes after the hand-to-hand combat began, there were less than ten Japanese devils left!
"Snatch the gun and don't kill it! I guarantee your life safety!" Liu Gen looked at the remaining Japanese soldiers and shouted loudly again.
The remaining Japanese soldiers no longer hesitated this time. They looked at the Eighth Route Army soldiers around them and could see that the Eighth Route Army soldiers had blood red eyes, like wild beasts that devoured people. They immediately scared the Japanese soldiers. Some Japanese soldiers threw out their weapons in their hands tremblingly and raised their hands. When they saw this scene, they quickly threw away their weapons and stopped making worthless sacrifices.
These Japanese soldiers knew very well that even if they continued to fight, it would be difficult for them to take away the lives of any Eighth Route Army soldier. Especially these Eighth Route Army soldiers were very strong, and there was no weak among them.
"Very good! Monk! Check their weapons! Once there is any abnormal movement, they will be killed directly!" Liu Gen ordered the monk beside him.
The monk nodded, and he restrained the murderous intent in his eyes. If Liu Gen had not given the order, he would have killed all these Japanese! Among Liu Gen and others, I'm afraid anyone would want to do this, but they knew that it would be useful for Liu Gen to choose to capture these Japanese Japanese, otherwise Liu Gen would not have wasted time doing this.
"You stay where you are and don't have any abnormal movements. I will order people to check you to make sure you don't have any weapons and equipment! Don't have any abnormal movements, otherwise he will kill you directly!" Liu Gen's Japanese is no longer so awkward. Language still needs to be said more.
The Japanese soldiers were a little silent. They could see many Eighth Route Army soldiers aiming secretly. As long as they had any abnormal movements, they would definitely be shot dead as soon as possible. The Japanese soldiers who knew this were very smart. When facing the monks who checked them, these Japanese soldiers did not make any small moves and cooperated very well.
The monk also brought them to Liu Gen after carefully checking these Japanese soldiers several times. He also wanted to know what Liu Gen could ask about these Japanese soldiers.
"Monk, continue to take your comrades to guard against other Japanese troops." Liu Gen ordered the monk again.
The monk nodded and left directly with the soldiers. In the battle with this Japanese squad just now, except for a few soldiers who were accidentally injured, no other soldiers were injured, and no soldiers died. If such a record was reported, it would be a contribution, but Liu Gen and others had no interest in such contributions.
Liu Gen came to these Japanese soldiers and asked seriously. His Japanese accent was a bit awkward, but he could still understand the words of these Japanese soldiers, which would make these Japanese soldiers understand what they mean.
Half an hour later, after confirming that he could no longer ask about anything from these Japanese soldiers, Liu Gen handed the Japanese soldiers to other soldiers for care. In order to avoid any disturbances from these Japanese soldiers, the soldiers tied them up and stuffed their mouths. During this period, these Japanese soldiers did not choose to resist, which made the soldiers feel a little regretful. It seemed that they had no chance to kill several of them.
After asking these Japanese soldiers, Liu Gen's face became more and more serious. From these Japanese soldiers, he learned that the Japanese had intercepted the telegram from the Eighth Route Army troops again and learned about the disappearance of Deputy Chief of General Staff Zuo Quan. This small Japanese army chose to come to Cross Ridge to search because they received relevant orders and needed to come and check it.
The Japanese troops are contacted every three hours, and the same is true for this Japanese squad. But now the Japanese squad leader was killed by Liu Gen and others in the battle. When the next time the Japanese troops contacted this Japanese squad, they would definitely find some abnormalities. At that time, the Japanese would definitely dispatch troops to check the specific situation of Cross Ridge.
In other words, in three hours, Liu Gen and others' situation will be quite dangerous. To be precise, the remaining time is less than two hours.
But even if Liu Gen knew this clearly, he had no idea of evacuating. He would not easily take the soldiers away before receiving the order from the division headquarters. Of course, Liu Gen also hoped that the division headquarters could give them the next order as soon as possible, otherwise if he had to stay in this area, casualties would definitely be inevitable.
In order to make the soldiers prepare enough, Liu Gen informed the monk and others of the news that the Japanese troops would be coming in two hours. After learning this news, the monk and others were in a heavy mood. Although it was easy for Liu Gen and others to wipe out a Japanese infantry team this time, it was based on the situation where the Japanese team was not prepared. If the Japanese team was prepared, it would not be so simple that Liu Gen and others wanted to easily take them down.
Time flies, until late at night, and there is no news from the division headquarters, and for some reason, the Japanese troops have not come.
Liu Gen didn't know that the Japanese troops did not come, but they could be more relaxed. Just to prevent the Japanese from confusing themselves, Liu Gen still asked the monk to lead the soldiers to investigate further, trying to determine whether there were really no Japanese troops to the direction of Cross Ridge. He was only relieved after the monk and the soldiers investigated all of them and failed to find the existence of the Japanese troops.
"The Japanese may have encountered something difficult, otherwise there would be no reaction at all." Liu Gen said to the monk.
For the Japanese, unless they encounter more urgent things to do, they will not have time to contact the infantry squad in the direction of Cross Ridge.
The Japanese troops did not come, but Liu Gen still kept the soldiers vigilant enough. In order to avoid the soldiers being too tired, he could only work three shifts of the soldiers to ensure that everyone is in good condition.
At this time, Liu Gen and others did not know that in the Changzhi direction, the 129th Division's troops attacked the Japanese Changzhi Airport. Because the 129th Division's troops attacked too suddenly, the Japanese did not have enough defense, so the 129th Division's troops attacked Changzhi Airport successfully bombed the Japanese Changzhi Airport. At the same time, all the Japanese traffic lines in the Changzhi direction were attacked by all the troops of the 129th Division.
In just a few hours, all the Japanese traffic lines in the Changzhi area were paralyzed. The sudden attack caused Yoshio Iwamatsu, the commander of the First Japanese Army, to quickly order the Japanese troops who were sweeping in the Anti-Japanese Base Area to be transferred back to ensure the safety of the Changzhi direction.
The attacks carried out by the Eighth Route Army troops also made Yoshio Iwamatsu realize that all areas need to have enough troops to defend, otherwise the attacks in Changzhi would also appear in other areas. In this way, even if Yoshio Iwamatsu did not want to mobilize the troops to sweep in the anti-Japanese base area, he had to do this at this time. It is okay to sweep the Eighth Route Army troops, but it is necessary to ensure the stability of the occupied areas.
The traffic line was destroyed and the airport was blown up. If this happened a few more times, then Iwamatsu Yoshio, the commander of the First Army, might not be able to be the commander of the first army for a few days.
As the Japanese swept the troops in the anti-Japanese base area were drawn, the transferred Eighth Route Army troops also returned to Liao County. The Japanese swept the troops were very harsh, but no matter what, the Eighth Route Army would not easily give up the base area opened. What's more, the Eighth Route Army had been in Liao County for a long time. Unless the Japanese put a large amount of troops into the Liao County area, the Eighth Route Army would not give up the anti-Japanese base area of Liao County.
After receiving the news that the Japanese mobilized troops were withdrawn, the bosses immediately made the decision to return to the Matian area of Liao County.
After the bosses made the decision, the radio station at the headquarters started again. Soon, the headquarters received a telegram from the 129th Division. When the correspondent sent the telegram to the bosses, the bosses were in a very heavy mood. When they had not received the news from Deputy Chief of General Staff of Zuo Quan, the bosses had a bad premonition.
But now, when the bosses actually learned the news, they still couldn't accept it.
"Order Liu Gen and others to stay in the Cross Ridge area. When encountering small Japanese troops, they will directly annihilate them with all their might! Avoid news leaking!"
"In addition, we ordered the main force of the 129th Division to march towards the Cross Ridge and prepare to fight against the Japanese sweeping troops! In any case, we must return to the Cross Ridge as fast as possible and see our old brother again." President Peng said with a heavy expression.
When Liu Gen and others received the telegram from the headquarters, it was already early in the morning. After learning about the headquarters' orders, they didn't have much thought.
The main force of the 129th Division is coming towards Liao County. If it goes well, it should be possible to return to Liao County and reach the Cross Ridge in less than three days. Of course, this is the marching speed of the combat troops. If some officers are added, the speed opportunity will be reduced a lot. But Liu Gen believes that with the eyes of the bosses, some combat troops will inevitably be able to return to Liao County first.
Considering the combat troops of the 129th Division, Liu Gen couldn't help but think of the Independent Regiment. With the Independent Regiment, the 129th Division should be the main force of Liao County first. With the Independent Regiment, it would not take too long to come to Cross Ridge. I hope that the Japanese will not notice the abnormalities of Cross Ridge in the past few days.
When Liu Gen learned that the main force was returning to Liao County, everyone was relieved that Liu Gen could clearly see the changes in the soldiers. When the main force returned to Liao County, the pressure they had to bear would not be so great, and they could also safely hand over the Cross Ridge area to the main force for defense.
The soldiers were very clear about their own situation. Even if they had submachine guns seized from the Japanese and had sufficient firepower, they would not have too many opportunities to play against the Japanese troops. The submachine guns in their hands were good, but they could only catch the Japanese off guard once. As for achieving more results, it would be much more difficult.
After the whole day of alert, the soldiers did not notice too many abnormalities, and no Japanese troops came to the Cross Ridge area. However, Liu Gen did not think that the Japanese would ignore the Cross Ridge area. The Japanese drew troops because there was a problem with the traffic line in the rear and needed a certain amount of troops to remain stable. However, when the Japanese came to their senses, they would definitely notice the Cross Ridge area.
At noon the next day, Liu Gen and others could see the Japanese reconnaissance plane flying over the Cross Ridge. The reconnaissance plane was very low in flight. While observing the situation in the Cross Ridge in detail, they focused on the previous Japanese infantry squad's garrison. After no abnormality was found, the Japanese reconnaissance plane quickly left. However, at this time, Liu Gen and others realized that the Japanese troops were coming.
As expected by Liu Gen and others, at three o'clock in the afternoon, a Japanese infantry team arrived. Instead of entering the Cross Ridge, they built a temporary camp at the foot of the mountain, waiting for more troops to come.
After the monk and others discovered that a Japanese infantry team had arrived, Liu Gen went to observe it. He could see that this Japanese team was very cautious, especially in the construction of temporary camps, and attached great importance to the defense of the camp. The camp built by Japanese was only possible to take down the camp in a short time unless Liu Gen and others had several mortars in their hands.
