Chapter 21 Lure the enemy
The telegram was sent out, but the Matsumoto Squadron did not respond for a long time. The anxious Shiro Goto sent three telegrams, not only the Matsumoto Squadron, but also the Tanaka Squadron, which went out to chase the enemy at the same time as the Matsumoto Squadron, also lost news. Two main squadrons were missing in one encounter, and even the scheming Shiro Goto was scared. He was afraid that the two squadrons would make a mistake and the boss would not forgive him!
What should I do? When I go back and report, I will definitely be sent to the military court. In order to avoid punishment, Shiro Goto bit his heart and just chased Hu Fei!
Anyway, there is a Suzuki Brigade behind him, so don’t worry that Hu Fei can use any trick to kill half of his brigade. If Major Goto can catch or kill Hu Fei, then he will be considered a great contribution! The two missing squadrons can be considered as a result of the war. No one will come to make things difficult for him at that time. Yes, just do it like this!
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the solution was so sophisticated, the Grandma Goto reported his idea to the commander of the Suzuki Brigade. Without General Suzuki's cooperation, his pursuit plan would not be possible, right?
It doesn’t matter to Suzuki Kuichiro. Anyway, he came this time to cooperate with Goto Brigade, which was to cheer for Goto Shiro. Major Goto believes that something could happen to the Suzuki Brigade, and the commander of Suzuki Brigade believed even more! In these Jinsui provinces, which Chinese army dared to make the idea of a Japanese military brigade? As soon as the Suzuki Brigade went out, it was like a tiger walking on the street, and all living people had to avoid it!
If you want to chase after me, then I will just follow me. Anyway, I will be rewarded with me after you catch Hu Fei. Suzuki Kuichiro carried this kind of mentality of watching the excitement in sightseeing, and followed Goto Shiro into the deep mountains.
Hu Fei dared not divide the troops. The infantry battalion he led was all puppet troops who had just joined the army. It was okay for him to follow him. If these people were allowed to relax, they might disperse at any time! Fortunately, although Hu Fei did not divide the troops, he had reinforcements.
Commander Hu led a newly rebellious army through the mountains, and anti-Japanese teams rushed to support from all directions. The first one to arrive was Yang Jinsheng's second regiment. The second regiment was originally coming here, and it was normal to meet Hu Fei. Then Ji Jinbiao and the cavalry regiment went around in a big circle and rushed over from nowhere.
As the team gathered more and more, the generals asked for a fight and asked to find a place to fight the Japanese! Hu Fei firmly disagreed with this, and he did not agree to the decisive battle with the Japanese! The Japanese behind him are a brigade. How many people are there in the 88th Column and how many guns are there? Being confident is a good thing, but it is not a good thing to be confident if it turns into blind optimism!
Dividing troops! Hu Fei, like Cheng Laogan, adopted the strategy of dividing troops. Anyway, he has more people now, so he doesn't care about dividing the troops a few more times. Hu Fei's original intention was to divide the Japanese troops into thin air and catch a small group of people who took the opportunity to fuck him! He must be more familiar with the mountains than the Japanese, and he is also familiar with ambushing in the mountains, traps, etc., so he can use the environment in the mountains to slowly grind the Japanese. Over time, one day he will be able to grind the Japanese to death!
Suzuki Kuichiro didn't know what Hu Fei was thinking. If he knew about it, he would probably turn his head and run away. He would not be too late in the mountains for a second! It would definitely not be a good thing to have such an enemy plotting against him!
Shiro Goto discovered that Hu Fei had increased his troops, but he was not worried too much. The Japanese army was not afraid of the number of soldiers in the country, but they were afraid that they would play tricks when they met. Fortunately, the Suzuki brigade behind gave Major Goto confidence. In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy can only be regarded as an episode.
Seeing Ji Jinbiao's cavalry galloping not far away, shooting guns at this side, Major Goto gritted his teeth and ordered the soldiers to shoot, but he just chased without division. Later, he was forced to do nothing. When he was sent out the attacking troops, Goto Shiro repeatedly reminded his subordinates: You must protect the radio station and contact me at any time. In addition, you are not allowed to chase them far away! You must return if you have a distance of more than one thousand meters!
Ji Jinbiao was trying to trick the Japanese into chasing them, but after playing tricks for a long time, the Japanese were not fooled. They turned around and left when they were far away. No matter how you provoke them, the Japanese just didn't chase them far away. Isn't this annoying thing!
Hu Fei led the way in front with his troops, Ji Jinbiao and his cavalry kept harassing each other from far and near, which made Major Suzuki feel upset. However, the Grand Master insisted on one thing, that is, he must not divide his troops to pursue, and he must not give his opponents a chance to defeat each other!
In this way, the Chinese and Japanese armies launched a long-distance tug-of-war in the mountains, one in front and one behind.
There was a three-way intersection in front of him. Hu Fei called Yang Jinsheng over and pointed his hand at the fork in the road. "Jinsheng, you can take the Second Regiment over there and find an opportunity to attack the junction of the Japanese and strive to lead the Japanese army to divide the troops!"
"Yes!" Yang Jinsheng agreed and led his troops to the fork in the road. The Goto brigade chasing behind seemed to have not seen it. It was time to shoot guns, and it was time to march, and there was no intention of chasing the fork in the road. Goto Shiro was determined to follow Hu Fei to the ends of the world.
If Shiro Goto can tolerate it, it doesn’t mean that others can tolerate it too. A few hundred meters behind Goto brigade was following the Suzuki Brigade. The commander of the Suzuki Brigade had long discovered that there were Chinese troops nearby that were frequently harassing them.
However, the Chinese soldiers harassed the Goto Brigade and did not provoke him. Suzuki Shiro didn't say anything. What did his brigade commander come out? Therefore, although he was unhappy, Major General Suzuki did not accuse Major Goto's cautious approach.
Goto Brigade chased Hu Fei and passed by the three-way intersection. When the Suzuki Brigade passed, Yang Jinsheng, who had been waiting there, suddenly started attacking! The second regiment fired guns and cannons, grenade launchers, and rifles and bullets hit the Suzuki Brigade like raindrops! Most of the vanguard squadron of the Suzuki Brigade died and injured on the spot, and more than fifty Japanese soldiers died in the raid.
Yang Jinsheng knew that there were many Japanese people in this group, so he gave the army a death order before the attack: two shots per grenade launcher, three shots per soldier, and retreat after the attack!
When Suzuki Kuichiro recovered from the sudden blow and ordered the troops to start counterattack, his enemy had already retreated! This mute lost so much that he suffered, so don't mention it! Goto Shiro is the spy leader, and he can tolerate it. Suzuki Kuichiro is not good, he is the commander of the major general brigade, so how could he not fight back after being beaten? Do you still need the dignity of your superior?
"Ogawa Brigade, attack!" Major General Suzuki pointed with his hand at the fork in the road. Major Ogawa in front immediately pulled out his command knife after receiving the order, "Attack!" Thousands of Japanese soldiers turned to the fork in a fierce manner. (To be continued)
