Chapter 732 Miserable little devil
Just as Gao Cang and the others were retreating, Qin Dongsheng and his troops were rushing to Twelvelipu non-stop.
They all know their own troops, and there is a fixed amount of supplies a unit can carry. If Gao Cang and the others don't withdraw their troops today, their supplies will reach the limit.
Therefore, Qin Dongsheng and the others must rush to Twelvelipu as quickly as possible, otherwise they will lose the opportunity to fight if the little devil arrives first.
The Japanese army never imagined that just after the troops in the mountains had finished their work, there was another army waiting to serve them outside.
It was dawn, and the kid who had been frozen on the mountain ridge all night had snot running from his nose.
Before daybreak, Captain Xiaojiazi ordered the troops to assemble and prepare to withdraw.
"Your Excellency, Captain, it's too cold this night. Why don't you let the cooking team light a fire to cook and go back after breakfast?"
The little devil is not made of iron. After drinking the northwest wind all night in this mountain, his body is quite exhausted.
It is estimated that if they go back like this, half of their soldiers will get sick, and there will be no way to fight on the battlefield again.
The Japanese captain also knew that his soldiers had suffered severe body temperature loss in the cold wind last night.
"Send the order and let the cooking team cook porridge. We will go back when we are full and full."
The Japanese captain did not know that this decision almost led to his death in Twelvelipu.
While the little devil was making a fire to cook, Qin Dongsheng's troops were still rushing towards Twelve Mile Pu.
"Quick, speed up!"
Qin Dongsheng kept urging the troops to rush to Twelvelipu as soon as possible.
"Third company commander, have the scouts sent by your company returned?"
Qin Dongsheng did not know the specific situation of the Japanese army.
Maybe the Japanese army would occupy Twelvelipu first. If that were the case, they might not have sent out scouts, so they might not have ambushed the little Japs, but they would have plowed into the Japanese army's arms first.
However, the scouts have not sent back any news, which makes Qin Dongsheng always worried.
Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to Twelvelipu, if their actions were noticed by the Japs first, the more than 500 of them would be surrounded by a large group of Japs.
Even if we were able to break through from a large group of Japanese troops, I'm afraid there would only be a few people left.
An hour later, the scouts finally returned to join the main force.
"Report... report..." The soldier panted and saluted Qin Dongsheng, "Captain, we didn't find anything unusual in Shilipu. We are not sure whether the Japanese army has not arrived or has left."
There were no Japanese troops stationed in Twelvelipu. There were only two possibilities. One was that the Japanese troops had not arrived yet, the other was that the Japanese troops had already arrived and then withdrew.
Zhao Zhiguo was not around at this time, so he could only make his own decision in everything.
"Second order, within an hour, all troops must arrive at Twelvelipu and make all battle preparations."
At this time, the sun has risen and the weather is still very cold, but the sun is shining on my body and I can already feel the warmth.
The cold wind last night has stopped, and the little devils who have eaten and drank enough have regained a little bit of morale. They seem to have forgotten the headache they suffered from the Chinese army yesterday.
After the large Japanese troops gathered, they retreated to Shilipu and then rejoined their large troops.
The way back went smoothly, and there was no more harassment from the Chinese army along the way. Although they didn't know where the Chinese army went yesterday, the Japanese army seemed to no longer care about Gao Cang and the others.
It was past half day, and it was quiet in Twelve Mile Po, except for the birds combing their feathers on the branches in the sun.
The Japanese army did not notice any danger, and their leading troops had already entered Twelvelipu.
The moment Qin Dongsheng saw the little devil's figure appear, he knew they had caught up.
They arrived at Twelvelipu ten minutes earlier than the vanguard of the Japs. If they were ten minutes later, the Japs would definitely find their traces.
The soldiers have already hidden themselves.
Half an hour later, the Japanese army arrived belatedly.
"Tell them one by one, and the sound of my gun is the order. Once the gun fires, no matter what weapon is used, fire at the little devil with all your strength."
Although they did not carry a heavy machine gun, Qin Dongsheng brought all their light machine guns and grenade launchers.
At this point they were just waiting for all the Japanese troops to enter their ambush circle.
The little Japanese didn't even realize that the danger was approaching them. They were still lining up in neat lines to approach Twelve Mile Pu.
"Bang"
The sound of a gunshot startled the unsuspecting little Japanese soldiers, and the Japanese soldiers took their guns off their shoulders.
However, before the little Japanese soldier could pick up his gun, several grenades exploded next to the little Japanese soldier.
"Boom boom boom"
Although the power of the grenade is not great, the sound of the explosion exploding nearby is quite scary.
"Da da da"
The machine gun kept firing at the panicking kid, and the kid who was targeted had almost no chance of survival.
A grenade exploded next to the Japanese captain, and the little Japanese captain fainted on the spot.
Either by luck or because he was destined to die, the grenade exploded at his feet, only grazing his scalp and knocking him unconscious, without injuring any vital parts.
Seeing their captain fall, the little devils around them all came to cover him.
The little Japanese soldiers covering the Japanese captain had no bunkers, so they naturally became good targets.
The Chinese soldiers on the battlefield didn't understand why the little Japanese would be exposed outside the bunker and shoot at them, but they would never let go of such a good opportunity.
"Machine gun, little devil over there, aim at them!"
When a platoon leader saw a large number of Japanese soldiers protecting their captain, he directly ordered the machine gunner to turn his gun and aim at the Japanese soldiers who had no cover.
"Da da da"
Every time the machine gunner pulled the trigger, a kid fell down.
Soon there were more than a dozen corpses of Japanese soldiers beside the Japanese captain.
"Cover! Retreat!"
The officers next to the Japanese captain tried their best to shout to the surrounding soldiers to provide them with cover so that they could retreat with the captain.
At this time, the Japanese army was in no mood to find out how many opponents there were. They just wanted to move their captain to a safe place.
The Japanese army retreated while fighting. Qin Dongsheng and the others took advantage and had no intention of pursuing them. After all, the Japanese army had a lot of troops. If the little devils were cornered, they would really jump over the wall in a hurry.
The little Japanese captain woke up an hour later and was still alive and kicking. The surrounding little Japanese soldiers and officers were dumbfounded.
In order to protect their captain, at least thirty little Japanese soldiers were sacrificed.
But after they successfully retreated for an hour, they found that their captain was still alive and well, with nothing wrong with him.
