Predator Reborn

Chapter 641: Strange Soldiers from Heaven

Time passed by minute by second while the two of them were contemplating. A few minutes later, Zhou Baozhong, who had not thought of any solution, couldn't help but exclaimed: "You damn little devil, if only I had one now."

The cavalry suddenly appeared behind them and launched an attack. It was guaranteed to drive them away, but they dared to attack our headquarters. I really don’t want to live..."

Just as Zhou Baozhong finished speaking, Liu Hua, who was deep in thought, suddenly remembered something. His eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly to Zhou Baozhong in front of him: "Old Zhou, what did you just say?

If there is a surprise army, what are you going to do?"

"Commander, I said, if I have a surprise force, I will suddenly appear behind the little devils and beat them to death. However, let alone a surprise force now, there is not even a company of troops..." Zhou Baozhong said with a look on his face

He replied helplessly.

"Yes, that's the sentence..." To Zhou Baozhong's surprise, Liu Hua in front of him, after hearing his answer, his eyes immediately emitted a sharp look. Then he said with excitement.

.

"Old Zhou, if a surprise force suddenly appears behind the Japanese army, I guarantee that this little Japanese army, which is alone and deep, does not need us to attack. Even if it scares them, it can scare them to death. And our current purpose is not

It is not about annihilating this small group of Japanese soldiers who have penetrated deeply alone, but to repel them and relieve the difficulties of the Shimenling headquarters."

"But, Commander, now the entire base area has no troops except for a thousand-man guard group around the headquarters. Where did this strange force come from...?" Zhou Baozhong acquiesced, but still said

He asked with a worried and helpless face.

"Haha, you are only half right. In the base area, we still have two troops, which have not been used. And among these two troops, although one of the troops is not large, its combat effectiveness is

But it is very powerful. As for the other unit, although its combat effectiveness is not strong, its total strength is very large. And it depends on us how to best use these two units..." Liu Hua

He said with a sly smile.

After listening to Liu Hua's explanation and thinking for a short time, Zhou Baozhong also showed a look of excitement on his face. Then he said with excitement: "Commander, you mean that the Reclamation Corps and the defense are around the arsenal.

The teaching team…”

"The one who knows me is Lao Zhou..." Liu Hua nodded affirmatively.

Immediately, facing Zhou Baozhong and a group of combat staff in front of him, he affirmatively said: "The base training team is composed of lightly and seriously injured people who have recovered from previous battles. At present, the total number of the entire training team is only five hundred.

Many people. However, these more than 500 people are all veterans who have been killed for a long time. When placed in our troops, they are at least first-level commanders of squads and platoons. It can be said that as long as they are equipped with enough good equipment, 500 people

The combat effectiveness is enough to be equivalent to a regiment of my main force."

Seeing everyone nodding thoughtfully, Liu Hua continued. "As for the Agricultural Reclamation Corps, although there is no combat effectiveness. However, after several months of development, the proportion of reserve party members in the entire Corps has exceeded 100%.

10. Even if such a unit cannot be used for a direct confrontation with the Japanese army, it can still be pulled out to scare the little devils and force them to retreat from the base area. When the time comes, beat the drowned dogs hard. I believe that even if they

No matter how low your combat effectiveness is, you still dare to charge..."

Only at this moment did Zhou Baozhong really understand something about Liu Hua. Then, with a look of enlightenment, he said: "Commander, I understand. What you mean is to order the teaching team to reinforce Deputy Commander Yang and stick to the headquarters.

.At the same time, the Agricultural Reclamation Corps was ordered to dispatch several Agricultural Reclamation Divisions to advance in a roundabout way toward the rear of the Japanese army with great fanfare, as if they wanted to eat these little Japs and force them to retreat..."

"Yes, that's it. Call Deputy Commander Yang immediately and order: Teaching team, rapid reinforcements to the headquarters, and stick to the headquarters. The First Agricultural Division, Second Agricultural Division, and Third Agricultural Division in the surrounding areas of the headquarters will immediately assemble to attack the Japanese army.

The rear area is advancing in a roundabout way with great fanfare, making a posture of blocking the Japanese army's retreat. At the same time, when the Japanese army retreats, be prepared to launch a counterattack at any time and beat up the drowned dogs." Liu Hua nodded and ordered decisively.

At Shimenling Headquarters, the sound of gunfire and artillery a few kilometers away has clearly reached the ears of everyone in the headquarters. Listening to the intensive sound of gunfire and artillery on the front line, he looked at the map and saw the front lines retreating towards Shimenling. Yang

Jingyu's heart could be said to be extremely tense. He frowned and paced back and forth in the small headquarters, thinking about possible countermeasures.

However, as time passed by, the frown on Yang Jingyu's forehead still did not relax in any way. Yang Jingyu, who really couldn't think of any way, could only give up his last hope at this moment.

It rests on Commander Liu Hua, who is hundreds of kilometers away.

Finally, while he was waiting anxiously, a familiar sound of footsteps reached his ears. Immediately afterwards, the figure of the headquarters' communications staff appeared at the door of the headquarters.

Seeing the communications staff officer, Yang Jingyu asked eagerly what he had asked so many times tonight: "Communications staff officer, is this a telegram from the commander..."

"Yes, deputy commander..."

After receiving an affirmative answer from the communications staff officer, Yang Jingyu, who was already impatient and impatient, grabbed the telegram from the communications staff officer's hand before he could finish his words. Then, he began to browse quickly.

Half a minute later, in the headquarters, under the expectant gazes of all the commanders, the frown on Yang Jingyu's forehead finally slowly relaxed. The heavy and dark look of worry on his face was immediately replaced by a smile.

shrouded.

"Deputy Commander, is there any solution?" Seeing the instant change in the expression on Yang Jingyu's face in front of him, the staff officer on duty who was standing next to Yang Jingyu quickly asked.

"Well, the commander has already come up with a countermeasure for us. Our headquarters is saved. The staff officer on duty immediately conveyed the headquarters' latest combat order: order the training team defending the arsenal to attack immediately to reinforce the headquarters and resolutely block the attack.

The Japanese offensive. At the same time, the three agricultural reclamation divisions of the First Agricultural Division, the Second Agricultural Division, and the Third Agricultural Division were telegraphed to immediately assemble their troops, distribute a certain number of weapons, and advance in a roundabout way toward the rear of the Japanese army from three directions: southeast, west, and west.

It looks like our army is preparing to wipe out this Japanese army. Go and convey the order immediately..." Yang Jingyu ordered decisively.

Immediately, with a smile on his face, he walked to the huge military map of the base area and began to make final preparations for the next battle.

The Japanese 128th Division formed a mixed detachment because the sneak attack plan had been completely exposed. The detachment leader Colonel Nakazawa immediately changed his combat plan and changed the attack from three sides at the same time to a concentrated force at this moment. From the south

, launched an attack on Shimen Ridge with his most violent offensive.

This kind of combat plan is indeed a good choice for the Japanese army at this moment. Although the militia troops laid a large number of landmines directly in front of the Japanese army. However, when the Japanese engineering troops paid a huge price,

Each safe passage was cleared immediately.

Along the safe passage, the five thousand elite Japanese Kwantung Army troops were like an unsheathed sword, as if they were in no man's land. In less than two hours of fighting, the five thousand troops broke through the guard group in a hurry

There are two unknown lines of defense between them. And the entire front has been pushed to a place only five kilometers away from Shimen Ridge. As long as he continues to add more force, the location of the Eighth Route Army's highest headquarters will be five kilometers away from him.

Thousands of armies trampled underfoot.

Thinking of the great military exploits he had achieved after destroying the Eighth Route Army's command system. In the temporary headquarters, Colonel Nakazawa's mouth immediately showed a smile. And at this moment, the new round of attack he organized was

Under the heavy firepower of the Eighth Route Army, they were once again defeated.

He glanced at the few officers in front of him who had smoke on their faces, lowered their heads, and said nothing. Colonel Nakazawa did not get angry. Because he saw every detail of the battle that just happened in front of him.

The retreat of the troops was not due to the lack of efforts of the few beloved generals in front of them, but to the fact that the firepower of the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side was too fierce.

"Kimura-kun, in the attack just now, your First Infantry Battalion was the main force in the attack. What do you think of the attack just now? Are the casualties of the troops high?" Colonel Nakazawa glanced at the subordinates in front of him and faced

asked Major Kimura, captain of the First Battalion that had just launched the attack.

"His Excellency, Captain of the Detachment, after two consecutive attacks, our First Infantry Brigade has paid the price of more than 300 casualties, including more than 250 direct casualties. At present, the entire infantry brigade still has the ability to survive.

There are more than 500 soldiers in the war, and they are fully capable of launching an attack again. Please rest assured, Your Excellency, the detachment leader. However, I have something to report to Your Excellency, the detachment leader..." Major Kimura replied affirmatively.

"Yoshi, if anything happens, report it immediately." Colonel Nakazawa nodded and said.

"Your Excellency, the detachment leader, through the attack just now, I discovered that the density of firepower output of the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, as well as the strength of the defending troops, have suddenly been greatly strengthened. More importantly, the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army, and the last attack,

There have been earth-shaking changes. 0..." Seeing the looks of shock and disbelief on everyone's faces, Major Kimura continued.

"Your Excellency, detachment leader, in the first attack, our first brigade only paid the price of more than a hundred casualties, and nearly half of the troops were only injured. However, in the attack just now, our first brigade only suffered casualties.

The number of casualties in a large group alone exceeded 150. More importantly, most of the 150 warriors who died in battle were killed by a single shot by the Eighth Route Army sharpshooters..."

"Nani? How is it possible, Kimura-kun, what do you mean?" After a brief shock, Colonel Nakazawa asked thoughtfully.

"Your Excellency, detachment leader, I humbly believe that during the initial attack, the Eighth Route Army suddenly received reinforcements from an elite unit. And the combat effectiveness of this elite unit is definitely not inferior to that of my heroic Kwantung Army soldiers, especially their marksmanship.

Very outstanding." Major Kimura replied affirmatively.

However, just as Major Kimura finished speaking, Colonel Nakazawa shook his head with certainty. Then, he said with a firm face: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. According to the reconnaissance of my intelligence personnel, the remaining

The main force of the Eighth Route Army in the base area has less than a thousand troops. And after two hours of continuous fighting, the total remaining strength of the Eighth Route Army is only about 500 people at most. Where can they get reinforcements..."

And at this moment, bad news one after another, like snowflakes, flew in front of Colonel Nakazawa. His passionate fighting spirit was completely blown away.

After several hours of fighting, it was already dark. With the arrival of dawn, Japanese air reinforcements immediately appeared unscrupulously over the base area, preparing to provide as much air reinforcements to the ground troops as possible.

However, the bomber formation responsible for reinforcements has not yet flown to the combat area. In the vast mountains, three reinforcements like swimming dragons appeared in the eyes of the little Japanese pilot. Of course, the most important thing is that these three

The marching direction of the Eighth Route Army's reinforcements was directed towards the Shimen Ridge area, which was currently in flames of war.

"Your Excellency, detachment leader, urgent call for air reinforcements..." A communications staff officer rushed into the temporary headquarters with an anxious look on his face and reported to Colonel Nakazawa in front of him.

"Nani, what happened to the telegram sent to us by the air reinforcements? Why has it been so long and the air reinforcements requested by my mixed detachment have not arrived yet...?" Colonel Nakazawa frowned and asked.

.

"Aerial reinforcement report: Three reinforcements of the Eighth Route Army appeared at a position about fifteen kilometers southeast and west of our mixed detachment. The total strength of each reinforcement is about 3,000 people. Bombers to reinforce our mixed detachment

The squadron, in order to slow down the march of the Eighth Route Army reinforcements, has temporarily changed the bombing target. At the same time, the air reinforcements suggested that I mix the detachment and prepare in advance to meet the enemy..." the communications staff reported loudly.

"What, nearly ten thousand Eighth Route Army troops are advancing towards our rear area..." At this moment, Colonel Nakazawa could no longer hold back the shock in his heart at this moment. Regardless of his own gaffe, he faced the person in front of him.

The officers couldn't help but exclaimed. Then, under the surprised eyes of their subordinates, they walked directly to the map and began to observe it carefully.

After a brief observation, the pencil in Colonel Nakazawa's hand, as his right hand continued to tremble, was directly crushed in half by Colonel Nakazawa. Then, with a pale face, he said: "No, the Eighth Route Army's third reinforcements

, attacking us from three directions: southeast and west. The Eighth Route Army has a huge appetite and wants to swallow us up here."

Colonel Nakazawa's words were like thunder, shocking everyone and they couldn't help but open their mouths. Then, Major Kimura, captain of the First Battalion, asked:

"Your Excellency, detachment leader, after several hours of fighting, my advance detachment has suffered more than a thousand casualties, and there are only less than 4,000 fighting troops left. At the same time, after several hours of continuous fighting,

More than half of the ammunition carried by the troops has been consumed. What should we do next? Should we continue to attack, or should we immediately break through and retreat before the Eighth Route Army encirclement is formed..."

After a brief reflection, Colonel Nakazawa said: "This is not something I can decide. The troops will continue to attack. The communications staff will immediately report the situation encountered by my mixed detachment to the division headquarters and request the division commander to make a decision.

….”

In the forward headquarters of the Japanese 128th Division, a combat staff officer rushed into the headquarters panting. Facing the division commander Lieutenant General Yamaoka Shigehou who was observing the map in the headquarters, he reported anxiously: "Division Commander

Your Excellency, urgent call from the mixed detachment..."

"Mixed detachment, has Mr. Zhongze destroyed the Eighth Route Army's command structure? Quickly, give me a telegram..." Shanggang raised his head and asked the communications staff officer in front of him with gleaming eyes. Then, he answered

After passing the telegram handed over by the communications staff, I began to browse quickly.

However, in just a few seconds, the face that was full of smiles immediately turned gloomy. He quickly walked to the map and marked the deployment of enemy and friendly troops in the telegram. Then, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

road.

"Baga, what's going on? Is it true that the Eighth Route Army has the ability to spread the beans into an army? With an army of nearly 10,000 people, where did they find an army of nearly 10,000 people out of thin air..." Shan Gang Chonghou couldn't help but ask.

Looking at the division commander who seemed a little distracted in front of him, the chief of staff carefully reminded: "Your Excellency, division commander, I think that now is not the time to discuss this. In two hours at most, my mixed detachment will be trapped by the heavy forces of the Eighth Route Army."

We are surrounded by troops. At present, our 128th Division has suffered more than 3,000 casualties. If the advance detachment is completely destroyed again, then the combat effectiveness of our 128th Division will be greatly reduced. Therefore, whether the advance detachment

We will withdraw our troops immediately and please make an early decision, Division Commander..."

"Well, since the Eighth Route Army should not be killed, even if the lives of the entire 5,000 soldiers of the advance detachment are taken, there will be no results. In order to preserve the combat effectiveness of our 128th Division, we immediately ordered the advance detachment to retreat. In any case,

We must all break through successfully..." Lieutenant General Yamaoka Shigehou waved his hand and ordered with a look of helplessness.

"Hai, your Excellency, the division commander is wise..."
