Bright Sword: Hosting the independent regiment, all become special forces

Chapter 244 Da Biao broke his arm, Shi Dafan was seriously injured, and the Japanese transport team was wiped out
The surrounding mountains and fields were quiet, there was no wind, and the sun had already slanted westward at this time, and the afterglow of the setting sun splashed blood on the battlefield.

There are potholes everywhere, and the trees that had just been green were reduced to ashes in the battle and artillery fire.

There seemed to be nothing else in the air except the scorched smell.

When Zhang Wei rushed to the frontline battlefield, the ambush was already halfway through, and the soldiers had already charged down, mingling with the Japanese transport troops.

Zhang Dabiao and other troops, who had been following far behind, also inserted into the battlefield from the side and rear.

This tough battle is not worth the slightest sloppy, Zhang Wei came to the top of the position, holding up the binoculars to look down.

The Japanese army had a strong will to fight. Although they were ambushed, the Japanese devils used their own corpses as cover on the spot, and had already organized a defensive position hastily.

Now what Zhang Wei saw were the corpses of both sides, and Xing Zhiguo was leading the commando to charge towards the Japanese army directly in front.

The situation on the battlefield was very tense, and the Japanese army had no intention of retreating at all. After being ambushed, they thought about how to annihilate this group of Eighth Route Army instead.

Even in their view, this Eighth Route Army is very likely to be one of the main forces of the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi.

"If the fight continues like this, even if this group of Japanese troops is wiped out, we estimate that there will only be more than 1000 people left."

The monk looked up at Zhang Wei who was frowning, not knowing what Zhang Wei was talking about.

Northwest Shanxi is their basic base, and they cannot be lost. The people are fine, the arsenal is fine, and although the troops suffered heavy casualties, there is almost a chance of a comeback.

What's more, the pre-war spring plowing is basically over, as long as these markings are in the hands of our own people.

"The battle will end soon, and it is time for this battle to come to an end."

Zhang Wei sighed, picked up the rifle beside him, loaded it, and rushed down with the monk and the communication team.

Five or six devils were stabbed to death in a blink of an eye, and the monk followed him, the box cannon in his hand, always on guard against cold guns in the distance.

The viciousness of this group of devils made even Zhang Wei secretly frown. These troops are old devils who have fought in battles, and their combat effectiveness is not at the same level as those mixed brigades before.

After sufficient time and systematic military training, these devils all possess a solid foundation and skills in fighting and stabbing.

If it weren't for the current soldiers of the special column, their physical fitness would not be able to keep up, and they would go to battle for days, full and hungry.

The battle situation will not be the anxious look it is now.

"Brothers, kill me!"

Zhang Wei let out a roar, and the soldiers seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and a burst of strength surged out of their bodies for no reason.

The Spike and Black Tiger brigades, which were still preparing for the pursuit, immediately gave up their plans to continue waiting, and joined the battlefield with their soldiers.

"Da da da!"

Zhang Wei, who charged over, happened to kill a Japanese soldier who was about to set up a machine gun. He immediately put the [-]-type rifle in his hand behind his back, lay down on the ground and controlled the sub-machine gun.

"Da da"

It's just that there are not many bullets, and there is no secondary shooter. After Zhang Wei killed the two devils, he took down the spear behind him again.

Turned on the special skill, bullet time.

After five gunshots, five devils were hit. The soldiers who were still in danger saw that it was the commander who fired the shot.

Having no time to thank the leader, he joined the battle group again with a roar.

The stabbing process was already very fast. After entering the hand-to-hand combat, the battle only lasted for about ten minutes before it was declared over.

Although all the devils were killed and most of the supplies were seized, for everyone, this was an extremely painful victory.

At this stage, the entire special column has more than half of its casualties. After the battle, it is estimated that there are less than [-] people left in the special column and the special first regiment.

"Captain, it's done!"

Zhang Wei searched for the sound and turned his head to look. Zhang Dabiao was covered in blood and his left arm had disappeared.

"Da Biao, what's going on?"

Zhang Dabiao smiled, and waved his hands indifferently: "I was bullied by the little devil, and my arm was cut off. The health worker said that there is no way to deal with it, and I can only amputate it. I just finished it."

Da Biao smiled reluctantly, the sweat on his forehead and slightly trembling body could explain his pain at this moment.

"Shi Dafan! Shi Dafan!"

Zhang Wei frowned and shouted, but Shi Dafan didn't call over, instead calling Zhuang Yan who was staggering.

"Head, the captain, he is injured!"

"Is it okay?"

Zhuang Yan nodded: "It should be fine. The bullet passed through and is out of danger. Commander, let's clean up the battlefield quickly and then retreat."

Zhang Wei nodded and looked at the soldiers on the battlefield: "First treat the wounded, clean the battlefield, and prepare to retreat!"

"Yes!"

The treatment of the wounded and the cleaning of the battlefield were carried out in an orderly manner. In the darkness, the Japanese army did not notice that the transport team was wiped out.

Then Zhang Wei took the soldiers to transfer to the western Shanxi area, and the next goal was to go to the southeastern Shanxi base.

Two days later, Zhang Wei led the remaining soldiers to Fangshan County, where they also met soldiers from the anti-Japanese base area in southeast Shanxi.

However, because of the war in Shanxi, the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Shanxi was also transferred to support. Now there is only one independent platoon and one county brigade left in Fangshan County.

There was nothing they could do about the lack of emergency medical supplies. Some soldiers had no time to rescue them and fell on the way to the march.

Zhang Wei stood in front of a hillside, and Xing Zhiguo frowned and stood behind Zhang Wei.

Cigarette butts all over the floor, but I don't know how to speak.

When Zhang Wei went to touch the cigarette case again, the cigarettes inside had already been smoked clean, and Xing Zhiguo had no choice but to hand over the cigarettes in his pocket.

Zhang Wei was taken aback for a long time, he hadn't noticed Xing Zhiguo standing behind him.

"Smoke mine, smoke some cigarettes, drink some wine, you'll feel better!"

Zhang Wei smiled: "What's the matter, are you afraid I will be hit?"

Xing Zhiguo nodded: "Everyone is uncomfortable. After all, you have only been in the army for two or three years. You have never encountered such a thing. I am also worried about you."

Seeing Zhang Wei's silence, Xing Zhiguo continued: "During the Long March of our Red Army, many soldiers died in front of me. Compared with them, I am lucky."

Zhang Wei did not speak, and silently lit a cigarette. Xing Zhiguo sighed helplessly: "We got in touch with Lao Li and the others. The Japanese army has already evacuated the northwestern Shanxi area after lack of supplies. Most of the people in the base area are fine."

"The arsenal has been moved to the southeast of Shanxi, and the production capacity has been affected, and raw materials are also lacking. It is estimated that it will take at least three months to resume production."

"The head of the headquarters means that you stay here in the southeast Shanxi base area, while Lao Li and the others will continue to stay in the northwest Shanxi area to re-establish the base area." Zhang Wei nodded: "Just stay here."

After speaking, Zhang Wei smiled: "Old Xing, you said how beautiful the scenery here is!"

Xing Zhiguo couldn't help but nodded. Northwest Shanxi couldn't see green for half of the year. Now that spring has begun, some trees have begun to sprout and some leaves have grown.

Weeds are also popping up, dotted with these bare yellow land.

After Zhang Wei's ambush of the Japanese transport convoy ended, Li Yunlong led the troops under his command to conduct two ambushes.

After annihilating two transport teams coming from Taiyuan, the [-]th Division was completely cut off. In desperation, Shan Baozong Wu could only order a retreat.

The situation of the Sixth Division is also very poor, since the decisive battle with the main force of the Eighth Route Army has not been found.

In the vast mountains, forests, and villages, from time to time, subordinates will be attacked by the Eighth Route Army, and some guerrillas who appear and disappear make them very troubled.

The transportation of supplies was too late to keep up, and the Sixth Division had no choice but to withdraw to the Yangquan area.

The 41st Division was exhausted. For a whole month, they were in the process of marching, forced marching, and resting.

Although there was not a tough battle, this small-scale harassment operation was not less.

The guerrillas, martial arts teams, and even armed militias active in the mountains did not kill many devils.

However, it was able to prevent the soldiers under Yuejiang Youzhen from resting normally. In addition, the transportation team was wiped out, and all weapons and materials were basically seized.

Yuejiang Youzhen is also worried that this special column still has the ability to annihilate them.

So he immediately asked Okamura Ningji to evacuate.

Ningji Okamura has a logistics report on his right hand and an evacuation application on his left.

Can't help but sigh: "The current situation has deteriorated to such an extent? Our control over the rural areas of North China has dropped a bit."

"General, we"

Neiji Okamura waved his hand: "I agree with Tsukie Yuma's request to withdraw, and I will go to the headquarters of the dispatched army to report the situation and discuss further strategic plans in the near future."

"Hay!"

After this battle, more than half of Yamamoto's secret service team suffered casualties, but the telecommunications reconnaissance team performed very well.

The No.11 Division of the Japanese Army was severely damaged, with only half of its numbers and combat effectiveness remaining.

Not to mention the Sixth Division, even if they recruit new recruits again, they will not be able to restore their previous combat capabilities.

The No. 40 First Division can now be called the No. 40 First Regiment, and its combat effectiveness is probably not as good as the Bantian Regiment of the previous Fourth Brigade.

Although the Japanese army believed that they had basically defeated and annihilated the Eighth Route Army troops in Northwest Shanxi, their control over Northwest Shanxi had once again dropped a notch.

There are even some difficulties in maintaining the confrontation with the Jinsui Army and the Central Army.

Recently, perhaps the Central Army and the Jinsui Army learned about the situation of the Japanese army, and immediately launched a spring offensive consisting of 45 regiments and two armies, totaling more than 5 people.

The target is directed at Yuncheng, SMX, Luoma, Luoyang and other places.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the failure of this combat mission has nothing to do with Yamamoto Kazuki's stupidity!"

Adjutant Ogawa pointed directly at Kazuki Yamamoto, because in this battle, the higher-ups did not think it was a victory worth celebrating.

"I agree with Ogawa-kun. The telecommunications reconnaissance team has locked the location of the enemy's headquarters, but General Kazuki Yamamoto messed up the operation, and I heard that the Yamamoto Special Forces, which spent a lot of resources to cultivate, suffered more than half of the casualties again. , The loss is exhausted, we should think about whether this training method is worth continuing!"

As soon as the combat staff officer finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought.

Zhang Wei's success seems irreproducible, and during this battle, except for the infantry brigade of the [-]th Division in Lingqiu County at the beginning.

None of them were attacked by small troops. The activity of the special column seemed a bit vulnerable on such a large battlefield.

"Furthermore, the preparation plan of the Imperial Association Army proposed by Yamamoto before has been proven. The combat effectiveness of the Imperial Association Army has increased compared to before, and this battle is called brave, especially the soldiers represented by Qian Jun. My subordinates believe that we should vigorously publicize, mainly to persuade surrender."

Neiji Okamura nodded. What this staff officer meant was that the Yamamoto Special Forces should stop doing it.

You basically failed to execute the missions. Although you are indeed good at combat, we suspect that you, Yamamoto, have some brain problems, and you can't do any missions well.

The training of the Locust Alliance Army is pretty good. If it doesn’t work, just throw Yamamoto in charge of training the Locust Alliance Army. Anyway, he suggested it.

"The exploration of special operations is one of the strategies decided by the Tokyo headquarters, if there is no leadership by Kazuki Yamamoto."

"General, I have a nephew who is incompetent, Takeshita Junzhong Zuo, who once studied special operations at the Berlin Military Academy in Germany. I would like to recommend it for you!"

Neiji Okamura nodded upon hearing the words: "Intelligence officer, do you have any information about Jun Takeshita?"

"Takeshita Jun, after being famous in Kyoto, Japan, graduated from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy and studied at the Berlin Military Academy in Germany. In the Battle of Nanjing, he once led an elite team to break through the city gate. After completing the mission, he returned to China to continue his studies. Just today He was ordered by the military to come to China."

This is an unremarkable resume. If it weren't for the experience in Germany, Neiji Okamura would not even take a second look.

"Then let Takeshita Shun become Yamamoto-kun's deputy. As for Yamamoto-kun's arrangement, I still need to think about it."

Neiji Okamura was quite disappointed with Kazuki Yamamoto, but there was nothing he could do. There was no longer a tough soldier like Kazuki Yamamoto among the short men.

Kazuki Yamamoto's failure was not due to his lack of personal ability, but it just explained the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army in the Northwest Shanxi base area.

Fortunately, Okamura Ningji "strategized", resisted all opinions, and organized this unprecedented scale of public security operations in North China.

After all, Okamura Ningji was responsible for the Japanese offensive and defensive operations in the entire North China region, but in the recent operations, almost all of his energy was put on the northwestern Shanxi region.

Moreover, the Tokyo base camp was also very dissatisfied with the pursuit of Zhang Wei's unit successfully breaking away from the 41st Division, and even issued another assassination mission to Tegao.

But this is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, they still don't even know what this Zhang Wei looks like.

"General, just received the latest information that the Zhang Wei Department of the Eighth Route Army has entered the southeastern area of ​​Shanxi. The exact whereabouts are unknown."

Every time I hear news about Zhang Wei, it's not good news, not once, it's damn sure that I can't catch up.

"How is the clean-up campaign going on in the southern Shandong area?"

Ningji Okamura changed the subject and asked about the war in southern Shandong and northern Jiangsu.

"General, everything is going well. It is estimated that this summer will be able to build a model security zone. Please rest assured, General."

"That's good, get in touch with Yan Xishan as soon as possible to find out the next move of their Jinsui army."

"Hay!"
