Chapter 1266 The Secret Service Blocks the Japanese Army's Retreat
Although Miura gave orders to the Japanese troops in the direction of Jinyang City, there was no need for them to rush to attack Jinyang.
The purpose of this Japanese army was to contain Zhao Zhiguo's troops in the Jinyang direction.
But the commander of this force had different ideas. As long as they captured Jinyang City first, Zhao Zhiguo's troops would definitely be in chaos.
So the Japanese army in Jinyang direction is also attacking the city with all its strength!
But the little devils didn't know that the problem they were really worried about was not the Chinese army in front that blocked them from seizing Jinyang, but the spy group that went around behind them and could seize the Longyan River bridge at any time.
The moon hangs upside down in the cold river water, emitting sparkling light.
After the first ship crossed the river, all the soldiers immediately set up on the other side of the river to be on alert and cover the subsequent troops crossing the river.
I don't know how long it took, but more than 1,200 soldiers from the special agent group were assembled on the east bank of the Longyan River.
"Brothers, I told you, we are fighting this battle with our backs against the wall. In three days, the blood of many brothers will flow into the river behind us," Lu Zheng said, "but today I can tell you,
In these three days, whether it is a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, or the Palace of Hell, I will be with you."
Two or three kilometers further south is their target.
The Japanese army left a garrison on the Longyan River bridge. Although the number of troops was small, the Japanese would definitely not give up their position to the special agents.
"First company commander, you follow us to seize the Japanese positions. After the large troops see the signal, they will immediately deploy their positions. Within three days, not a single kid can be allowed to cross the bridge!"
In the dark night, Lu Zheng led a company of brothers to quietly approach the Longyan River bridge.
The Japanese troops guarding the Longyan River did not pay attention to bridge defense at all.
During the day, they saw with their own eyes the collapse of the Chinese army guarding the bridge.
Japanese patrols around the bridge were also sparse, and most of the soldiers had long since hid in bunkers and fell asleep.
The rushing sound of running water covered up the rustling of the troops slowly crawling forward, and the sentry had no intention of pricking up his ears to listen.
A company of Chinese soldiers is already within easy reach of the Japanese sentry post!
Suddenly, a black iron lump with green smoke rolled down to the foot of the little devil.
The little Japanese soldier rubbed his sleepy eyes and suddenly woke up!
"Grenade!"
As soon as the little devil shouted, the grenade exploded under his feet.
"Boom boom boom"
Continuous explosions illuminated the bridgehead, followed by shouts of death covering up the sound of the river.
"Come on!"
The bright bayonet shone coldly in the moonlight, going straight to the heart of the Japanese soldier!
The little Japanese was awakened from his sleep and frantically reached for the gun beside him, but the Chinese soldiers were already approaching and they had no time to fix their bayonets.
Lu Zheng took the lead and was followed by a company of soldiers.
The general will have the determination to die, and the scholar will not have the intention to survive.
"Quickly clear the battlefield, occupy the position, and prepare for support from the little Japs."
News that the bridgehead has been captured will soon reach the Japanese army.
Seeing that his escape route was cut off, the Japs could no longer focus all their energy on attacking Jinyang City.
Although the little Japanese guarding the bridge were not defeated at the first touch, they were unable to withstand the sudden attack of the Chinese army.
The first company commander fired the signal flare, and the troops of the special agent group quickly seized the bridge position.
The Japanese army did not expect that the Chinese army would suddenly appear and retake the bridge.
The little Japanese commander immediately ordered to stop the attack on Jinyang City.
"The Chinese army does not look like it is about to collapse. We may have fallen into a trap."
There is still no shortage of smart people in the Japanese army, and they have been at war for so many years and have experienced countless battles. Once the attack is unfavorable, the little Japanese will soon come back.
"Gather the troops immediately and retake the bridge! Make sure our retreat is clear."
The little Japanese commander also felt that there was a conspiracy, so he suspended the attack on Jinyang City and began to attack Lu Zheng's special agent group.
"Why did the little devil's attack stop?"
The two regiment commanders who were guarding Jinyang City got together.
Just now, the little devil seemed to be desperate for his life and continued to launch a strong attack on Jinyang City.
But now there was no movement from the little devil, which made the two captains feel a little uneasy.
The quieter the battlefield is, the more likely it is that what happens next may be unusual.
"We can't be careless. Now the main force has been transferred to the vicinity of Pingcheng for encirclement and suppression. It will take three days for support to arrive. If there is a problem on our side, it will cause big trouble for our commander."
The two captains guarding Jinyang knew the importance of Jinyang City now.
Before the battle in the direction of Pingcheng was over, they could not let a single soldier in even if they died.
"But we should still send people out to conduct reconnaissance to see what the little devil is up to."
After this reconnaissance, the troops guarding the city learned that the special agent group had taken advantage of the Japanese army to attack Jinyang City last night and regained control of the Longyan River Bridge.
The Japanese army's retreat was cut off, and the Japanese army attacking Jinyang exploded in an instant.
"In other words, the Japs are now concentrating their forces against the special agents?"
"Yes, the secret service group is now surrounded by the Japanese army at the bridgehead, and all our pressure has been transferred to the special service group."
"The leader of the secret service seems to be named Lu Zheng. I heard that he is our commander's old brother. Our commander is really brave to put our old brother in such a dangerous position."
"Should we send troops to support the special agent group? Otherwise, they will be in danger of being annihilated."
"The terrain of the bridgehead position does not allow much troops to be deployed. Although the Japanese troops are large, they can only engage in wheel warfare, and it is impossible for us to bypass the Japanese troops and send troops to the bridge."
It is almost unrealistic to reinforce Lu Zheng's special agent group, unless their large forces arrive to launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against the Japanese army.
Otherwise, only two people can have the final say on matters on the bridge, one is Lu Zheng and the other is the little devil, and God will not be able to interfere.
If they try to get involved now, not only will they not be able to help the secret service group, they may also get themselves involved.
"We can't let the secret service group help us resist all the pressure. The commander put our two regiments in Jinyang. The purpose is to hope that we will protect Jinyang."
"How about we fight guerrillas? Each regiment sends two companies of troops and goes out to harass the Japanese army!"
They definitely couldn't help the secret service group from the front. They could only find ways to contain some of the Japanese army's energy and reduce the pressure on Lu Zheng.
"Also, gather together the mortars of our two regiments. Let's concentrate our artillery fire to beat up the little Japs first, and then quickly withdraw."
Now that the Japanese army was contained, the troops in the city had new strength.
Chapter completed!
