Chapter 338 Don't leave this time!
Looking at the Eighth Route Army rushing into Zuoyun City one after another, the puppet troops in the city who cooperated with the cooperation seemed to feel it. The Japanese who used to frighten them seemed to be the same today, and it seemed easy to kill them.
But compared to the excitement of ordinary soldiers, officers such as Zhu Dachang knew that today they could attack the South Gate like this, and the role of Captain Qin and his group of people should not be underestimated. The shooting skills of these people even amaze Zhu Dachang and others.
Especially the soldier carrying a scope rifle, almost every bullet would take away the life of a Japanese devil. It was these people's precise shooting skills that made the Japanese devil's machine guns unable to be fired at all.
If this is not the case, they will pay an unbearable price to open the city gate smoothly. No matter how many people, once the casualties increase, the morale of the military will be depressed, and the Japanese will be the same.
In terms of number of people, Zhu Dachang and others were obviously superior. In terms of marksmanship, Captain Qin and others' shooting skills were even more accurate than the Japanese. In this case, the Japanese guarding the South Gate could only watch the city gate open.
The commander of the 1st regiment of the 2nd Division, standing outside the city command center, looked at the 1st battalion rushing into the city and immediately said with a smile: "Okay, the 1st battalion has rushed in! Order the artillery troops to start stopping artillery. The rest, it depends on the 1st battalion!"
As the first battalion successfully entered the city, the stubborn enemy at the south gate was quickly cleared, leaving a company commander to take over the city gate. Zhu Dachang seemed to know that he should follow the Eighth Route Army to beat the dogs in the water at this time.
It will never be a bad thing to make more contributions!
‘Okay, since you are willing to fight with us, let’s join us! First battalion commander, please give them some bullets!’
When Captain Qin heard Zhu Dachang ask for a fight, he did not refuse their wishes and directly told the first battalion commander who rushed into the city. As the company commander of the regiment reconnaissance company, Captain Qin and these battalion commanders are naturally old acquaintances.
As a box of bullets was dismantled, many of the puppet troops who had been shot out all received ten bullets and began to cooperate with the first battalion to clear out the other three city gates. Under the attack on both sides, the Japanese army guarding the city was also defeated step by step.
When the main forces of the other three battalions of the first regiment entered the city one after another, the battalion had already taken the lead and attacked the Japanese military camp baptized by artillery fire. The Japanese inside did not last long.
Looking at the Japanese brigade captain who was directly bombed to death in the room, Zhu Dachang cursed hatefully: "It's a bargain!"
On the other hand, Captain Qin said, "It's a pity! Captain Zhu, now you will lead the team to cooperate with us to find out all the gentry who do the Japanese! Whoever is good or bad these people is, I believe you have a clear idea, right?"
‘Yes, please rest assured Captain Qin. Whoever did the most evils in these people, I, Lao Zhu, also has a deliberation in my heart. The family of my platoon leader was betrayed by these guys. Damn, it’s my turn to settle the deliberation with them now.’
During the period of being besieged, many of the puppet army's families were also attacked by the Japanese. However, many of the puppet army were very smart and asked their families to leave Zuoyun City in advance and go to the nearby countryside to avoid swords and weapons for the time being.
Such a small calculation undoubtedly allowed these people's families to escape. The gentry who was still trapped in the city at the moment was not very good. But Zhu Dachang also knew that he could not just point a deer to a horse at this time.
Since Captain Qin asked him to lead the way, Zhu Dachang also knew that after today's incident, he and his subordinates could only fight with the Japanese devils from now on. It can even be said that they would never have the chance to surrender to the Japanese devils in the future.
As the gunfire in the city gradually subsided, many gentry hiding at home and traitors from the pseudo-government were pulled out by the Eighth Route Army. As for their property, they were naturally fetched in a box.
Even the traitors who were extremely guilty were also imprisoned by the Eighth Route Army. At the right time, these people would be taken to the execution ground for public trial, and finally they were sentenced to death in front of the people.
For such an ending, many traitors saw that when the Eighth Route Army entered the door, their legs were already weak. Even if some people felt it was wronged, they did not want to be traitors with the Japanese. However, if they committed evil, they should repay the debt they owed.
Regarding these people, the final punishment will be given by the staff of the relevant border government. However, the arrest and investigation of their property will be the first regiment of the Second Division that invaded Zuoyun City.
The seized materials and property will be escorted back to Yulin City one after another. This city will be under the control of the border government from now on. The entire Zuoyun area will also be included in the base defense area of the column.
The people who had escaped from Zuoyun City before heard the sound of gunfire coming from the city this time. Although it was a bit unexpected that the Eighth Route Army dared to attack the city during the day, as the gunfire subsided, the people were curious who won.
Just as the people were watching, the guerrillas patrolling Zuoyun City recently came to the village and said, "Friends, the main force has successfully captured Zuoyun City, and now we need people to help transport supplies.
Also, let me tell the villagers a good news. This time the main force captured Zuo Yun and will not leave again. From now on, we will become a liberated area. In the future, the villagers will no longer have to worry about the Japanese going to the countryside to collect grain and sweep the food."
Upon hearing this, the people of the village said happily: "Captain Liu, the Eighth Route Army is really not leaving this time?"
‘Well, I won’t leave! I learned from the main force before that the main force will not leave when the main force comes. In the future, there will be a main force stationed in Zuoyun City. The Japanese want to capture Zuoyun again, unless we defeat our main force first.
Moreover, soon after, Zuo Yun will establish a democratic anti-Japanese government. As long as everyone works hard in the future, I believe that good days will come soon. Another good news is that the troops should be expanded by then.
Lao Li, if you two guys are willing, you can send one to the army. Although the Eighth Route Army does not pay any wages now, they also offer a lot of things during the Chinese New Year and holidays, and also wear brand new cotton coats.
If your boy is successful, he might be able to become a senior official in the main force in the future. At that time, your life will be better. In short, we will no longer have to worry about the Japanese entering the village in the future.’
Such situations have occurred in the countryside around Zuoyun City. As various guerrilla squads mobilized one after another, many people came to Zuoyun City to help clean the battlefield and transport supplies in the drizzle and cold wind.
Although there will be troops here, some supplies still need to be transported away. When the people arrived, they looked at the traces of guns and cannons everywhere in the city and knew that the previous battle was quite fierce.
However, after many people entered the city, they saw the puppet soldiers and said in surprise: "Why didn't these Ergouzi be beaten to death?"
When the puppet army heard this, they felt a little uncomfortable. But they thought that they had accompanied the Japanese to the countryside to carry out a siege, and it was natural for the people to hate them.
On the contrary, the Eighth Route Army soldiers on the side received orders from their superiors. When they heard the people's inquiries, they smiled and said, "Friends, today Zuoyun City has been successfully captured, and they have helped a lot.
Even in the previous battle with the Japanese, many people died. Everyone made mistakes. For those who owe the blood debts to the people, our Eighth Route Army will definitely punish them severely.
In addition, after a while, the villagers can come to the city to watch the public trial organized by the anti-Japanese government. Many of these puppet soldiers are miserable people. Since they already know that they are wrong, please give them a chance to reform themselves."
The explanations of the Eighth Route Army soldiers made these puppet soldiers feel warm. However, many people think that even if the cotton coats on them are quite warm, they would rather change into the cotton coats of the people if they could choose.
On the other hand, many people who entered the military camp and began to clean up the houses collapsed after being bombarded. Looking at the bodies piled up in the playground, they seemed a little scared, but they still felt relieved.
Especially when those who died were the Japanese, the people spit out from afar, as if they wanted to vent their resentment towards the Japanese. However, when they saw the sacrifice of the Eighth Route Army and the puppet army, the people were more respectful to the former.
Regarding this situation, Zhu Dachang, who was still standing with Captain Qin and organizing the military camp to clean up, suddenly said: "Captain Qin, I, Old Zhu, have a request. I hope Captain Qin can help you tell your leader, is that okay?"
‘Captain Zhu, please tell me!’
As the previous Eighth Route Army soldiers said, the puppet army brigade did help a lot when Zuoyun City was able to successfully capture this time. The puppet army, which originally had thousands of people, died nearly 400 people when they completed the recovery of Zuoyun City.
More than 200 people were injured. Even the commander who entered the city felt very surprised. In a sense, some people had a lot of anger, and the combat power they burst out was unimaginable.
It is hard to be afraid that Zhu Dachang was also injured in his arm. Seeing the other party helping with his life, Captain Qin and the soldiers in the group of soldiers were quickly dismissed a lot of contempt for them and were willing to say something nice to them.
‘Captain Qin, I, Lao Zhu, will not say much about how you deal with me next. But my brothers all followed me to vote for the Japanese devils, and now they obeyed my orders and eventually died in battle with the Japanese devils.
If I am buried in the future, can I change my military uniform? I dare not ask them to change into your military uniforms, can I let them be buried in the military uniforms of the Jinsui Army? This is also the only thing I, as the battalion commander, can I do for them.’
Perhaps Zhu Dachang now really realized that the puppet military uniform was annoying. His request to change the military uniform and bury really surprised Captain Qin. Even if Captain Qin wanted to agree at once, he knew that he needed to ask his superiors for instructions.
