"We have to get rid of the Japanese pursuing us first. Otherwise, the Japanese will catch up to us sooner or later!”
Li Congjing gritted his teeth. The Japanese pursuing them were actually chasing after them. They were just prisoners of war! Was it worth it to go through so much trouble to chase after her?
However, if Li Congjing knew what Kunda Kenichi was thinking, he would understand that these prisoners of war were to be provided to Yamamoto Ichiki's special forces for assassination training. At this time, the county town in northwest Shanxi where Kun Tian Jianyi was stationed was already a confidant of the Japanese. It was impossible for prisoners of war to be sent to him in a short period of time.
Wei Da Yong said,"Sir, we only have a few Type 38 Japanese rifles and two Type 92 heavy machine guns." With this little firepower, if the Japanese soldiers caught up, they probably wouldn't be able to hold on.”。
The 130-plus captives who were running around and out of breath nodded. Fortunately, it was night time. It would be difficult for the Japanese to catch up to them.
"That's why we have to find a place to rest and hide! It was now around midnight, and the temperature at night was low in the early morning! Old Wei, are you familiar with the surrounding area? Is there a place where I can rest and recuperate?”Li Yun Long quickly finished speaking and looked behind the team. He saw a long fire snake in the dark of the night.
It was the scene created by the Japanese soldiers holding torches. Looking at the fire snake, it was less than five to six minutes away from them.
Although Wei Da Yong wasn't from Jin Province, he had been to the county where they were locked up. He had also been to the area with the 27th Division, so he knew a little about the situation there.
Wei Da Yong thought for a moment and said," Sir, there's a Black Cloud Stronghold about 20 miles to the north from here. It's a bandit lair." The mountain stronghold is well hidden and easy to defend but hard to attack. It's suitable for us to rest and reorganize!”。
Li Congjing thought to himself.
If Wei Da Yong knew that he was killed by the second-in-command of the Black Cloud Stronghold, Lin Shan, who knew what he would think?
However, now was not the time to think about these things. The Black Cloud Stronghold was indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. Otherwise, the leader of the Black Cloud Stronghold, Xie Baoqing, would not have been able to stay in the Black Cloud Stronghold despite the fact that the Jinsui Army and the Eighth Route Army were still fighting against the Japanese.
This meant that the Black Cloud Stronghold was very suitable as a base! Moreover, the Black Cloud Stronghold was surrounded by mountains. The terrain in the mountains was uneven, and there were a large number of high ground in the mountains, which was beneficial for defense.
"Brothers, don't worry. I have my own countermeasures. Now, they had to continue retreating and get rid of the Japanese soldiers behind them! Brothers, retreat, head north!" Li Congjing shouted and retreated north with Wei Dayong.
Now that they had a target, all the prisoners of war immediately found their backbone. They followed Li Congjing, who had the highest military rank, along the mountain path and ran straight towards the Black Cloud Stronghold.
On the small path behind him, the 200-odd soldiers of the Kuntian squadron were chasing after him with torches in their hands.
"Bageya Road, hurry up, continue chasing!”Kuntian Kenichi cursed as he urged his Japanese soldiers to continue their pursuit.
If they could not catch Li Congjing and the other prisoners, they would be punished when Yamamoto Ichiki's special forces arrived at the county town where Kuntian Jianichi was stationed.
"Sir, the soldiers can't run anymore. Should we stop for a while and rest?”Kuntian squadron's adjutant Shen Gong Jiro said breathlessly.
"Bajialu, is this the time to rest?" Kun Tian Jianyi scolded. The prisoners of war had all escaped. If Yamamoto's special forces came to the county town, they would not have any prisoners of war to use. You and I are both guilty of another crime. If we offend Colonel Yamamoto's special forces, will we still have a good ending? Carry out the order and continue to chase. Even if they die, they must get back those prisoners of war! These were the prisoners of war that Colonel Yamamoto specifically wanted to use! Hurry up!"
" Ha Yi, sir!!!"
Kamiko Jiro immediately turned serious. Although the Yamamoto Special Forces that would come tomorrow was only a special force, they were under the direct jurisdiction of their greatest superior, Lieutenant General Shinozuka Yoshinan, the commander of the Japanese First Army in Jin Province.
With this order, the 200-odd soldiers of the Kuntian squadron had no choice but to brace themselves and chase after Li Congjing and the others with their torches.
Li Yunlong and the others were speeding up towards the Black Cloud Stronghold in the north.
"Looks like we have to find a place to deal with the Japanese pursuers first!”Li Yunlong looked at the four captives carrying the two Type 92 heavy machine guns seized from the prisoner of war camp. He thought for a moment and said fiercely.
"I agree, sir!" Wei Da Yong said. When we carried these two heavy machine guns out, we even let a few of our prisoners of war brothers get their ammunition plates. If we can find a place to block the Japanese from both front and back, these two heavy machine guns should be enough to kill a squadron of 200 Japanese soldiers. It shouldn't be a problem!”。
Li Congjing nodded. Wei Da Yong was right.
They only had two heavy machine guns, a few Japanese Type 38 rifles, and some grenades that they had snatched when they escaped from the prisoner of war camp. There weren't many weapons, equipment, and ammunition. However, if the bullets from the two heavy machine guns could block the Japanese squadron in the enclosed space, they should be able to kill them all.
