Chapter 55 Some points can't be earned
"Rufeng, we got home smoothly. How are you doing?" Mao Erde's voice came from Wang Yue's intercom.
"Uncle De, you have returned to the Yalu Mountain base, that's great. Well, we are all pretty good, now we are almost at Qianzhang Cliff." Wang Yue rode on the horse and replied with the walkie-talkie.
"That's good. Are you planning to spend the night at Qianzhang Cliff tonight?" Mao Erde asked. After all, it's too late now, and it's really inconvenient to walk at night. Besides, there are not no wounded people on Wang Yue's side, but there are really no serious wounded people.
"No, I got some good things and I'm in a hurry to send them back for you, haha." Wang Yue laughed.
The good thing naturally refers to the two Type 92 infantry cannons seized from the Liutiaoxian Artillery Team. During the day, this thing caused heavy losses to Wang Yue's troops, but now it was confiscated by Wang Yue and the artillery team was destroyed. This retribution sometimes comes really fast enough.
Of course, Wang Yue was anxious to go back, not entirely because he wanted to offer treasures, but because the Qianzhang Cliff had been emptied and was bombed by the Japanese for two rounds. Maybe there were still some Japanese left behind now. It was hard to say that Wang Yue had no need to take that risk at night.
Another reason why Wang Yue is so heartless is that the wounded brought back by Mao Erde and the daytime bombardment caused 20% of the 200 soldiers led by Mao Erde Zhou Xiong to sacrifice 20% of the injured, and 30% of the injured ones. There is no way for those who sacrifice it. However, if Wang Yue can go back in time, he may be able to treat more. After all, Wang Yue’s current medical skills are really not comparable to Xu Zimiao.
"Rufeng, what good thing makes you so anxious?" Mao Erde on the opposite side felt a little itchy when Wang Yue said this, so he couldn't help asking.
"Haha, it's a good thing anyway. Be prepared to not sleep tonight. You and Mr. Li seize the time to count the casualties of today's soldiers. Let them report the contributions of each company and platoon. No matter what, you must reward if you have any merits." Wang Yue smiled and changed the subject directly.
"Mr. Li will do these things in the afternoon. When you and Zhou Xiong come back, you will make up for the situation of the third company and it will be almost done." Mao Erde said.
"That's it, let's talk about it when you go back." Wang Yue finished the call with Mao Erde, and suddenly thought of something again, so he turned to Zhou Xiong and ordered: "Brother Zhou, the shortcut to Mengliang Mountain we walked this afternoon, and Uncle De led the wounded through the primeval forest of the Xing'an Mountains. When the time is ripe, we must correct and widen it as soon as possible, at least to ensure that we can move forward."
"I understand." Zhou Xiong replied.
Zhou Xiong could still guess Wang Yue's plan. With the expansion of the advance army and the increase of its power, it is an inevitable trend to develop outward. However, this is a ruling area after all. It is definitely an unwise move for Zhang Dan to seize the city with the Japanese. At least before there is enough strength, the advance army must exist in secret and develop in secret as bandits or other situations. Therefore, the Yalu Mountain Base, Qianzhang Cliff and Mengliang Mountain were secretly opened up through the primeval forest of the Xing'an Mountains and connected them into one. This will definitely have great benefits for the development of the advance army.
"By the way, how far is it from the valley you mentioned?" Wang Yue asked again.
Before the battle this afternoon, Zhou Xiong and others stored the materials in Qianzhang Cliff, as well as some horses, carriages and so on in a hidden valley not far from Qianzhang Cliff. After all, they thought it was just a show, and when the Japanese left, the soldiers who stayed at Qianzhang Cliff would get the things back again, but they didn't expect that so many unpredictable things would happen later.
Now Wang Yue and others are in a hurry to go back, so they will definitely need horses. After all, Wang Yue and Zhou Xiong have a total of nearly 60 people. There are only more than 30 uninjured war horses seized from Liu Tiaoxian. Therefore, most of them were riding on the way. If they were not talking about the time they were delayed, the horses would not be able to stand it. So they thought of coming here to pick up the horses. Of course, they also wanted to see if there were any special situations in Qianzhang Cliff.
"Battery Commander, it's not too far. Just cross the mountain ahead and arrive." Li Tai, the first platoon leader of the Third Company, replied, because he was responsible for this matter, Zhou Xiong was not very clear about it.
Soon, the group arrived at this hidden valley. However, when they entered the valley, everyone was completely stunned. All the horses and carriages in the valley were gone, but the supplies were not moved. What's the matter? Stealing horses and carriages but not supplies, is it because there is something wrong with the brain?
"Could it be that the Japanese discovered it?" Zhou Xiong guessed.
"Forget it, there is no need to guess. For the sake of the present, the wounded can only ride horses. The others will take turns riding horses and running forward. Fortunately, they are only about twenty miles away, and it won't take long." Wang Yue thought for a while and said.
So Wang Yue and his party rushed on the road again, but the speed was much faster than before. Because everyone was tired just now, they rode directly on the two of them and then prepared to pick up the horses here. Now after a period of rest, everyone's physical strength has recovered a little, so the speed of riding horses and running is naturally faster.
"Hey, there seems to be a large group of people in front?" One of the soldiers, an old soldier, suddenly felt a sense of induction. Then he lay on the road and listened to confirm for a while, and then reported to Wang Yue and Zhou Xiong that there was indeed a convoy and a cavalry team ahead.
Zhou Xiong immediately ordered several agile soldiers to ride their horses to investigate first. After more than ten minutes, a few people reported that there was a team of Japanese soldiers ahead, with a population of about fifty or sixty, which should be the size of a team. They also found that the horses and carriages hidden in the valley were taken away by these Japanese soldiers.
It turned out that the first team of the Hehuang Squadron had been sending people to search for carriages and horses this afternoon, with the purpose of transporting corpses. However, this Qianzhang Cliff is located in a wilderness, so horses and carriages are not so easy to find. However, they seemed to have good luck today. At dusk, a Japanese soldier went hunting because he was hungry, but accidentally found horses and carriages in the valley, so he was able to load hundreds of corpses onto carriages and prepare to transport them back to Nanlu Town.
Speaking of which, the corpses of the Japanese on the carriage were actually at noon. Zhou Xiong and others used these horses and carriages to pull them from Da'antun. Now they were pulled back by the Japanese using these horses and carriages. They were really unbearable and they were struggling.
"Battery Commander, how about it? Are we going to kill these Japanese devils now?" Zhou Xiong heard that the Japanese who pulled the corpse were right in front of him, so he immediately wanted to try.
I have to say that fighting the Japanese with Wang Yue still made Zhou Xiong very excited. I won’t talk about annihilation of Fuyuantian Squadron in the morning. After all, Zhou Xiong and Wang Yue were not together at that time, but in the afternoon’s blocking battle and the battle of ambushing the Liutiaoxian Artillery Team at night, the two of them really fought side by side.
Through these two battles, Zhou Xiong truly began to be loyal from the heart and began to submit to Wang Yue. Not only because the two battles were beautiful, but also because Wang Yue had good shooting skills and strong combat power, but because Wang Yue really cared about the warriors and was concerned about the safety of the warriors, and he was even the leader in the battle, and could even be described as being brave and fearless.
In addition to his previous recognition of Wang Yue's knowledge, methods, etc., this led to Zhou Xiong, of course, not only Zhou Xiong, but also Zhou Xiong, who participated in the war today, none of these former bandits and now soldiers had the same idea as Zhou Xiong. They all believed that Wang Yue was a worthy person to follow, especially fighting the Japanese with Wang Yue, which was really exciting.
Of course, these are a bit far off. Looking back at Zhou Xiong's proposal, although Wang Yue also wants to fight the Japanese, after all, it should be Wang Yue's happiest thing to earn points by killing Japanese. By the way, Wang Yue has really made a lot of points throughout the day today. Although Wang Yue had not had time to ask Misa, Chu Luan estimated that there should be eighty or ninety.
However, although points are certainly something to be earned, Wang Yue still needs to think clearly about some points. Can it be earned?
It’s like the Japanese squad in front of you. If Wang Yue was willing to lead these fierce soldiers, I believe that killing or even annihilation of them would be fine, but the points of the Japanese in front of you are really the kind that cannot be earned.
Why?
In fact, the reason is very simple, for the safety of the Yalushan base and the smooth development of the industrial park plan.
Today, the reason why Wang Yue's troops wiped out the Fuyuantian Squadron at all costs was the above purpose, and the disaster was led east to Qianzhang Cliff was actually for this purpose. Of course, what happened behind Qianzhang Cliff did not develop according to the script was unexpected by Wang Yue.
But if the team in front of us is now cleaned up, then it is very likely that all the efforts today will be in vain, because if nothing unexpected happens, this team should be the last garrison force in Nanlu Town. If it is also killed, you can imagine the anger of the Japanese. Of course, we are not afraid of the anger, but we are really afraid that they will search and suppress the bandits everywhere, so the Yalu Mountain base will be hidden, and the industrial park plan will lose its meaning.
After figuring out these joints, Wang Yue directly gave up the idea of killing these Japanese men to earn points. Not only could they not be killed, but they also had to try their best to protect the Japanese from a safe arrival in Nanlu Town. Of course, in Nanlu Town, as long as Wang Yue's troops did not attack the Japanese, no one would dare to challenge the Japanese.
However, facing the passionate look of Zhou Xiong and others asking for battle, Wang Yue had to make some comfort, and then tactfully informed him of some of the reasons. Of course, he must add that the soldiers have worked hard enough today and the Japanese have killed enough. Remember the lives of these Japanese first.
Afterwards, Wang Yue and his group followed the Japanese transport team until all the Japanese entered Nanlu Town, Wang Yue led everyone to the Yalu Mountain base.
