Chapter 851
The second group of Japanese trucks that entered the pass were forced to stay in the middle area.
There were ten trucks of supplies. It was impossible for the Japs to move all the supplies with manpower. The Japanese army only left a small group of soldiers to guard the trucks.
More than a dozen Japanese troops stayed behind. To Zhao Zhiguo and others, it was as if those ten trucks were left there for him to pick up for free.
"Captain, could it be that the Japs did it on purpose?" a company commander asked.
Even if the little devils are wealthy, they have no reason to throw away ten trucks of supplies. It's not like they don't know the combat effectiveness of Zhao Zhiguo's troops.
"We don't rule out this possibility! Anyway, the little devils won't be able to move the supplies away for a while, so we just wait for the opportunity."
When it comes to war, you can never be too cautious.
"Send the order, the first company and the special forces team will stay, and the rest of the troops will withdraw to Anyang Town!"
Too many troops staying here can easily be noticed by the Japanese army, and they need too many supplies, which is not a good thing.
That evening, several Japanese trucks carrying a squadron of Japanese soldiers arrived near the pass.
The leading kid looked at the situation inside the pass with a telescope and kept shaking his head.
The road was not destroyed, but the rocks from the cliff collapse were enough for them to clean up for a long time.
The first section of the pass was okay. The Japanese army could clear one side and pile the gravel on the other side to allow trucks to pass.
But at the second pass, the road is already narrow and the blockage is the worst. Just looking at it gives the kid a headache.
The Japanese army could also transport supplies from the Jinyang area to the Bingzhou front line, but the time period for one delivery of supplies was two or three days longer than from the Pingcheng area.
Moreover, with the Central Army stationed in the south, the safety of the transportation team is much worse than that from Pingcheng.
However, the little devils quickly came up with a solution. They blasted the huge rocks blocking the road. The logistics transportation team and engineering troops joined the battle, plus the puppet troops. If the speed was fast, the road could be restored to smooth flow in three days.
.
"Boom boom boom"
That night, Zhao Zhiguo and the others heard the sound of an explosion in the pass.
"What's the noise?"
In order to restore the smooth flow of the road as soon as possible, the little devil arranged for engineers to blast the huge rocks blocking the road that night.
What Zhao Zhiguo and the others heard was the sound of the Japanese army detonating detonators.
"First company commander, take the men and stay on standby. Yao Pengju and two soldiers, come with me to have a look!"
Zhao Zhiguo had already made a guess, but he didn't expect the little devil to be so fast.
They quietly came to the hillside. There were bright lights at the bottom of the mountain, and there were bonfires every ten meters away.
The shadowy figures beside the campfire are the little Japanese engineers and soldiers at work.
"It seems that our explosion has really delayed the little devil a lot. Captain, should we take action?"
Let the little devils carry out the construction like this. If the little devils work overtime, the highway will be opened soon.
"Don't be in a hurry. Let's take a look first. If you don't believe me, the little devil won't rest."
Cleaning the gravel on the road is not an easy job. It seems to be quite energetic in the first half of the night, but in the second half of the night, you are exhausted and you will sleep like a dead pig.
The little devil was really working hard. He worked hard for most of the night and had no intention of resting.
"Look, we once boasted that we were the most hard-working nation in the world. It seems that we are not bad at this point! The advantages we give ourselves will kill us sooner or later."
Zhao Zhiguo stretched his body, which had been lying motionless for a long time.
"I also heard that some soldiers fell asleep on their bicycles because the Japs were chasing us?"
In order to pursue the fleeing Chinese army, a Japanese army once had no rest for two days and two nights. Some of the Japanese soldiers fell asleep while riding their bicycles.
Zhao Zhiguo did not answer Yao Peng, but looked at the time and saw that it was already one o'clock in the morning.
"We have to eat up the little Japanese engineers in a while. We need to scout out whether there are any large Japanese troops around."
They couldn't let the little devils successfully open the road.
Today, the Japanese transport team was unable to transport supplies to the front line. The Japanese attacking troops on the front line must have stopped their attack due to lack of ammunition.
As long as the little devil is delayed for one more day, the Chinese army in the direction of Bingzhou will have a little more breathing space.
"I'm going to take people to take a look nearby!" Yao Pengju said, "Do you want to arrange for people to take a look at those supplies?"
Yao Pengju really did not forget the supplies for those ten trucks.
A small group of Japanese soldiers guarded ten trucks. If they didn't take them away, Yao Pengju always felt that he had lost something.
"Including your special forces team, we only have two companies in total. We still have to fight. Do you think it will be convenient to carry so much supplies?"
It's not that Zhao Zhiguo doesn't want the supplies, but once he gets the supplies, he will become a burden to them.
If the weight of the soldiers is too high, the transfer speed will be slowed down. For this small amount of supplies, it is not worth the lives of a few people and a dozen people.
"Let's go reconnaissance first, and by the way, give the order for the first company commander to lead the troops to come closer."
Zhao Zhiguo's next target is the Japanese engineering troops. As long as the Japanese engineering troops are destroyed, their work of digging mountains and paving roads will have to stop.
Without engineers, even if the Japs have enough manpower, they will achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Under Zhao Zhiguo's order, the soldiers lurked quietly.
An hour later, Yao Pengju and several soldiers came back to report the reconnaissance situation. No large Japanese troops were found around.
"Give the order, everyone should get as close as possible to the Japanese army. As long as they are not discovered by the little Japs, they should put their bayonets on the little Japs' necks."
Zhao Zhiguo does not plan to harass him from a distance this time.
Long-distance strikes took a long time and caused limited casualties to Japanese engineers.
In close combat, the attack speed is fast and the opponent is caught off guard. The white knife goes in and the red knife comes out. The fighting speed is faster, which is more conducive for Zhao Zhiguo and the others to withdraw from the battle in time.
Under Zhao Zhiguo's order, all soldiers moved slowly in the direction of the Japanese army.
The sound of the explosion covered up the rustling sounds in the grass. Although the little devil was alert, the surrounding environment was too noisy for the little devil to concentrate on the darkness.
Especially in the second half of the night, it is the time when the human spirit is most relaxed.
The soldiers got closer and closer, and they could clearly hear the little devil's voice.
These little devils have no intention of calling it a day. They must have received a death order and must open the highway within the specified time.
That's why these little devils work overtime like they don't care about their lives.
"Bang bang bang"
