Chapter 115 Kong Jie's Anxiety
Chapter 115 Kong Jie's Anxiety
The next day.
Lijiazhuang County Brigade.
On the training ground of the cavalry camp, Sun Desheng and Li Yunlong were discussing the next cavalry selection.
"Instructor, we got so many war horses from the Japanese this time that we can form a cavalry company again..."
"Yes, that's right. I came to the cavalry camp today to take you to the county brigade to select people. Now our cavalry team is getting bigger and bigger, and we have to thank the Japanese for the gift." Li Yunlong said with a smile.
"Instructor, what are we waiting for? Let's go quickly."
Then Li Yunlong brought Sun Desheng to the training ground of the county brigade.
At this time, some new recruits were already training on the training ground.
After the recruits complete their training, they will be assigned to various companies.
Sun Desheng and Li Yunlong squatted at the edge of the training ground to watch the performance of the recruits.
"Instructor, you know what, these new recruits have pretty good physical fitness."
Li Yunlong nodded after hearing what Sun Desheng said.
"Yes, look at these new recruits, they are full of energy."
"The main reason is that the food in our county brigade is good. Only when we are full can we have the strength to work. Not everyone can persist in such high-intensity training. Without sufficient nutrition, we can't do it at all." Li Yunlong said with emotion.
"Okay, Sun Desheng, stop wasting time here, let's go in and pick some people. While these new recruits haven't finished their training yet, let's pick out the good ones first."
Sun Desheng smiled and said, "Okay, instructor, I feel relieved when you say that. I will go pick someone right away."
In the next half day, Sun Desheng and Li Yunlong selected more than 250 recruits on the training ground and brought them to the cavalry battalion.
At first, the newly selected recruits were not happy about it, but when they heard that they were going to join the cavalry battalion, everyone became excited. After all, who would want to be an infantryman when they could be a cavalryman? Cavalrymen are much more comfortable than infantrymen. They can march on horseback without having to run hard.
........................
Night falls.
Three or four Japanese military vehicles appeared on a road leading to the Eighth Route Army base in Heyuan County.
I saw the truck moving slowly in the dark without turning on its lights.
The Japanese driver drove the truck on the rugged dirt road with the help of the moonlight in the sky.
The truck compartment was filled with fully armed Japanese soldiers.
This group of Japanese devils was none other than the special forces team led by Yamamoto Ikki. Their target this time was the Eighth Route Army headquarters base located in Daxia Bay.
When they were about to reach the edge of the Eighth Route Army base, Yamamoto Ikki gave the order to stop advancing.
The Japanese convoy immediately stopped on the road, and then the Japanese drivers hid the cars in a small forest.
The Japanese special forces quickly assembled a team of more than 100 Japanese soldiers, each of whom was battle-hardened and experienced.
Yamamoto Kazuki quickly called Masuko Shigeo.
"Captain Mashiko, we have now arrived near the Eighth Route Army's base. You will be the one to lead the team in how to proceed."
"Hi." Masuko Shigeo responded.
Then the Japanese special forces acted quickly and, under the leadership of Shigeo Mashiko, moved towards Daxia Bay where the Eighth Route Army headquarters was located.
In the dark night, a group of hundreds of Japanese soldiers were marching quickly in the mountains.
Along the way, the Japanese special forces bypassed several checkpoints set up by the Eighth Route Army.
When they encountered a place that they could not get around, the Japanese special forces would climb over the cliff.
In less than half an hour, the Japanese troops arrived near Yang Village where the independent regiment was stationed.
at this time.
In the command post of the independent regiment, Kong Jie was discussing the next actions of the independent regiment with the commander of a battalion.
"Captain of the First Battalion, the Japanese have been conducting raids everywhere recently, and we don't know what they want to do." Kong Jie asked in confusion.
"Captain, I don't know what's wrong with the Japanese. According to reports from the guerrillas under us, the Japanese are now dispatching more frequently than before."
"It's really weird."
"Captain of the First Battalion, my eyelids have been twitching these past two days. I always feel that something bad is going to happen. You need the soldiers to be on high alert, especially the secret sentries in the dark. They must keep their eyes open and never let the Japanese get close to us." Kong ordered.
"Don't worry, Commander. We have sentries everywhere around our base in Yangcun." The battalion commander said confidently.
"That's the best. I hope nothing bad will happen. Maybe I didn't sleep well these past two days."
Kong Jie looked at the clock hanging on the wall. It was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
"Captain of the First Battalion, it's getting late. Go back and rest early. You still have training missions tomorrow."
"Yes, Captain."
The battalion commander turned and left the command post and began to walk towards the barracks.
at the same time.
The Japanese special forces have already reached the outskirts of Yangcun, where the independent regiment is stationed.
Some members of the Japanese special forces stopped on the outskirts of Yang Village.
Mashiko Shigeo reported to Yamamoto Ikki who was standing next to him.
"Colonel Yamamoto, ahead is Yang Village where the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment is stationed. As long as we bypass Yang Village, we can head straight for the Eighth Route Army headquarters base in Daxia Bay."
"Captain Mashiko, can we bypass the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment in Yangcun and head straight for the Eighth Route Army headquarters?"
Mashiko Shigeo shook his head.
"Captain, no, if we want to bypass Yangcun and reach the Eighth Route Army headquarters base..."
When Yamamoto Ikki heard that they could not bypass Yangcun, he turned around and gave instructions to the team leaders next to him.
"Everyone, pay attention. Now we are quietly moving past the edge of Yang Village. Don't make any noise."
After the instruction is delivered.
Yamamoto Ikki led the Japanese special forces and began to move towards Yang Village.
After bypassing several checkpoints, the Japanese were about to pass.
A Japanese soldier's kettle accidentally fell to the ground.
"Bangdang..."
The sound of metal hitting the ground was particularly harsh in the night sky.
The sudden sound made all the Japanese soldiers hide quickly.
Yamamoto Ikki was so angry, but now was not the time to stop, he had to rush through Yangcun immediately.
When the Japanese soldier's kettle fell to the ground, a soldier in a secret sentry post nearby heard the sound.
"Hey, did you hear the sound just now?" asked a soldier.
"No, there's no sound. Who would be wandering outside in the middle of the night?" said another soldier.
"No, I really heard a sound. I'll go out and take a look." As he said that, he stood up and prepared to go out and take a look.
