Chapter 20 Flying a Kite
"Report!"
A voice came from outside the door.
Maeda just put away the paper and pen, frowned and said, "Come in."
A figure flashed, and Ge Fugui walked in, nodding and bowing.
Behind Ge Fugui, there was Zhao Youcai, who was only wearing a shirt.
Maeda Tsuyoshi had already remembered Zhao Youcai's last name and asked, "Zhao Sang, were you ambushed again?"
"Hai, Your Majesty is wise." Zhao Youcai said with a sad face, "That group of Eighth Route Army didn't leave. As soon as we entered Tiger Bay, we were ambushed again. Two imperial soldiers died on the spot."
"Baka!" Maeda Tsuyoshi stood up and shouted angrily, "Are you pigs? You've already been ambushed once, so why are you not alert? How dare you be ambushed again in the same place?"
Zhao Youcai and Ge Fugui rolled their eyes when they heard this.
Damn it, didn’t you say that the Eighth Route Army would definitely leave?
The Eighth Route Army has already left, why should we be so vigilant?
Maeda Tsuyoshi gritted his teeth and asked again: "So, you surrendered again?"
"We have no other choice." Zhao Youcai shuddered and hurriedly explained, "Taijun, those Eighth Route Army soldiers are not ordinary Eighth Route Army soldiers. We really can't defeat them."
"We have to fight even if we can't win. Soldiers should fight to the bitter end."
Maeda Tsuyoshi said with a dark face: "You have no blood at all!"
Zhao Youcai cursed in his heart, if I had blood in my veins, would I be your dog?
"Zhao Sang, this is the last time." Maeda Gang said with a dark face, "If it happens again, you will suffer the most cruel punishment in the world, and you will definitely regret it."
"Hayi, there will definitely not be a next time."
Zhao Youcai was frightened when he heard this and shook his head repeatedly.
"Remember what you said." Maeda Tsuyoshi groaned, stood up and walked out.
When they reached the dormitory door, Maeda Tsuyoshi shouted again: "Order, Team 1, assemble urgently!"
Looking back at Ge Fugui, Maeda Gang continued, "Ge Sang, send a company as well. This time, we must capture this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers and use them to practice assassination for our new recruits!"
…
Tiger Bay battlefield.
Li Sigen trotted over to Wang Ye and said, "My lord, are you looking for me?"
Wang Ye hummed lightly and asked, "Ace of Diamonds, how many wires have you cut?"
"I don't know, I haven't weighed it." Li Sigen said, "But it should be at least 200 to 300 kilograms."
Wang Ye said: "Don't cut it yet, call back the King of Diamonds and the Jack of Diamonds, there is a combat mission."
"Yes." Li Sigen responded, and then asked, "What about the cut wires?"
"Hide it first." Wang Ye said, "Come back and get it after dark."
Li Sigen responded, turned around and hurried away.
Wang Ye said again: "Xiao Wang, Ace of Spades, Ace of Hearts, both of you come here."
Wei Dayong, Wang Xikui and Wang Gensheng hurried over to Wang Ye.
Wang Ye said: "The Japs have suffered two losses in a row, they will definitely retaliate next time, and they will definitely not be stupid enough to send a small force this time, they will definitely send a large force."
Wang Xikui said, "Your Majesty, let's retreat quickly."
"Retreat?" Wang Ye asked coldly, "Why should we retreat?"
"Ah?" Wang Xikui was stunned for a moment, and said blankly, "Not retreating?"
Wang Gensheng also said: "In a sparrow war, shouldn't we stop when we are ahead?"
The independent regiment had often fought such guerrilla warfare in the past, where they would take advantage and then run away, leaving the Japanese with no chance of revenge and no choice but to suffer in vain.
"Quit while you're ahead?"
Wang Ye scolded, "Why are you two so shallow? Are you satisfied with just such a small benefit? Can you be more ambitious?"
"No?"
Wang Xikui said: "Your Majesty, we have seized 28 Liao 13 rifles, plus more than 500 rounds of ammunition, and oh, three Japanese horses!"
Unfortunately, one of them ran away.
Wang Gensheng said: "There are still thirty sets of cotton clothes!"
“We’re just getting started here?” Wang Ye sneered.
"Let me remind you, we are Wolf Warriors."
"As a wolf warrior, you should have the bloodthirsty instinct of a wolf warrior."
Wang Gensheng asked: "My lord, what is the bloodthirsty instinct of the war wolf?"
Wang Ye said: "The bloodthirsty instinct of the war wolves is that any enemy that appears in their sight must be bitten to death, and they can't easily escape."
"What if we encounter a large group of Japanese soldiers?"
Wang Gensheng asked, "Do you want to fight them head-on?"
"Why not?" Wang Ye said murderously, "There are ways to fight a large army and there are tactics to fight a small army. Today I will teach you how to fight a large army."
"Oh my God." Wang Xikui said, "My king, are you really planning to set up a third ambush here?"
"You're right." Wang Ye sneered, "I'm really planning to set up a third ambush here."
After a pause, Wang Ye continued, "Now listen to me explain the tactics. This tactic is called kite flying. As long as you can fly a kite well, you can still defeat a squadron of the Japanese, and you can also retreat unscathed when facing a battalion."
"Is this true? So awesome?" Wei Dayong and the other two looked at each other.
…
The Huting stronghold is located on the simple road leading to Yangquan County.
More than fifty Japanese soldiers were lined up in four columns and marching forward.
Behind the Japanese, there were more than a hundred puppet soldiers, also arranged in four teams.
Without any warning, the Japanese lieutenant in charge suddenly raised his right hand and shouted, "Stop!"
The fifty or so Japanese soldiers and more than a hundred puppet soldiers following behind them stopped one after another.
"Diao Sang! And Zhao Sang." The Japanese lieutenant turned around and shouted, "You two, come here."
The puppet army company commanders Diao Desheng and Zhao Youcai quickly ran forward, bowed and said, "Madam."
The Japanese lieutenant pointed to the ridges on both sides of the road and said, "The Tiger Bay is ahead. Two teams of you will go up the mountains on both sides to prevent the Eighth Route Army from shooting at the Imperial Army."
"Ah?" Diao Desheng and Zhao Youcai's faces fell.
Diao Desheng said tactfully: "Madam, the Tubalu had already run away."
"Baga!" The Japanese lieutenant immediately took out a Nambu pistol and pointed it at Diao Desheng's forehead, saying coldly, "Are you going or not? If you don't go, I'll kill you."
Diao Desheng was so scared that he fell to his knees.
When Zhao Youcai was hesitating whether to kneel down, he suddenly heard the whistling of a bullet.
The next moment, Zhao Youcai felt a warm liquid splashing on his face with a fishy smell. He subconsciously licked it with his tongue and it was salty.
Suddenly, Zhao Youcai seemed to understand something.
When he looked up quickly, he saw an extremely horrifying scene .
He saw that Captain Kameda, who had just been standing in front of him and Captain Diao and showing off his power, had only half of his head left.
Moreover, this half of the head was not the left half or the right half, but only the back half. The front half of the head, along with the nose, eyebrows, eyes and upper jaw were all gone.
A broken jaw hung under the empty half of the skull.
As Zhao Youcai was watching, his lower jaw dropped with a click.
It sounds long, but in fact, all this happened in a flash. Zhao Youcai screamed and fell to the ground with his head in his hands. The other Japanese soldiers also reacted quickly.
There were three other Japanese soldiers who were also knocked down.
The Eighth Route Army's marksmanship was more accurate than the Japanese expected.
A Japanese second lieutenant took over command at the first opportunity.
"Nine o'clock direction! Machine gun team, suppress fire!"
"The first squad will outflank the left, and the second squad will flanke the right flank."
"The third squad and the Imperial Army will attack from the front, advance at full speed!"
At a command from the Japanese second lieutenant, the machine gun teams of the three Japanese infantry units immediately set up their light machine guns and concentrated their fire on the hill at the nine o'clock direction.
Three nine-man infantry squads (lacking machine gun groups) were quickly divided into three groups, advancing rapidly from the left wing, right wing and center respectively. The Japanese soldiers' tactical skills were indeed good, and they used the infantry assault tactics of fire cover, breakthrough in the center and flanking on both wings to perfection.
However, it's useless!
…
Nine o'clock direction.
The ones who fired the shots just now were the sniper team led by Wang Ye and Wang Xikui.
After firing a shot, Wang Ye and his men got up and ran to the back of the mountain.
When the Japanese machine gun fire poured onto the top of the mountain, Wang Ye had already retreated to the reverse slope of the mountain with the sniper team members Wang Xikui, Zhao Erwa, and Huang Shun.
The grass and trees on the top of the mountain were broken and shattered.
But Wang Ye and the other three were unharmed.
Wang Xikui asked as he ran, "My Lord, what kind of bullet did you use just now? Why is it so lethal? You blew off half of the Japanese captain's head with just one shot?"
Wang Ye said: "It is the 6.5mm caliber Arisaka bullet."
"Impossible." Wang Xikui shook his head . "Arisaka's bullets have strong penetrating power. If they hit the head, there would only be two bullet holes. At most, the exit would be larger. It is absolutely impossible for them to have such a great killing power."
Wang Ye smiled and said, "This is because I modified the bullet."
"The bullets were modified?" Wang Xikui asked anxiously, "How?"
"Want to know?" Wang Ye smiled slightly and said, "I'll tell you after we kill the Japanese flag bearer ."
"Your Majesty, you said this." Wang Xikui was overjoyed and said, "Keep your word."
Wang Ye said: "One spit is as sharp as a nail."
