At the same time.
On the winding mountain road, the Yamazaki Battalion was marching at a rapid pace. The adjutant reported to the captain,"
"Sir! We went the wrong way, 60 degrees north!”
Yamazaki slapped the adjutant in exasperation.
"Bastard, stop!"
The scout in front suddenly turned back
"Sir, we've left the forest. We've found a strange target ahead.”
"Nani?" Yamazaki frowned and followed the scout to the hill in front of them. He lay under a tree and looked down the hill with his binoculars.
Not far away was a flat valley. There were a few houses around it, like a small village, but there were no civilians inside. The people walking back and forth were all soldiers of the Eighth Route Army. There were two machine gun positions piled up with sandbags at the entrance of the village, and there were many sentry posts around it.
"Youxi, hiding in such a hidden place must be an important base of the 8th Route Army.”Yamazaki was excited. If there were important figures of the Eighth Route Army hidden inside, he would be able to make a great contribution.
"Pass on my order, prepare for battle!"
Yamazaki waved his hand, and the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain rushed up the hill. The artillery set up mortars on the right side, and the heavy machine guns were also set up in the most open position. The others checked their weapons and loaded their guns. The killing intent instantly filled the air, and the battle was about to start.
At this moment, the arsenal below was completely unaware of the arrival of danger. The soldiers who came to collect equipment were still sorting out the hard-won ammunition. The sentries were on guard duty. Everything was normal.
"Sir, the soldiers are ready for battle!”The squad leader reported to Yamazaki.
"Yosh!" Yamazaki put down his binoculars and slowly drew his sword. He stood up on the hill and pointed at the arsenal in front of him. He raised his sword and shouted,""Fire!"
"Bang, bang, bang…"
Several shells fell from the sky with sharp whistles, completely breaking the silence of the valley.
"Boom, boom…"
The artillery shells exploded around the factory one after another. Flames soared into the sky and thick smoke billowed. The entire factory was in a mess in an instant. Screams and cries for help rose one after another.
The shells continued to fall, and deafening explosions continued. The entire village was blasted into ruins. Houses collapsed, and broken walls were everywhere. Corpses could be seen everywhere.
Before the two defensive positions at the entrance could react, they were both hit by artillery shells. The machine guns and the five sentries beside them were blown away at the same time.
A cannonball landed on the donkey cart filled with grenades, instantly detonating the entire cart's ammunition. The donkey was torn to pieces in the terrifying explosion.
The other sentries were also panicking. They wanted to save people and fight at the same time. In the panic, many people were killed by the shells.
After several rounds of fighting, dozens of shells landed in the village, and the entire arsenal was basically destroyed.
Seeing that the explosion was almost over, Yamazaki took a step forward and pointed his sword forward. He ordered loudly,""Everyone attack!"
In an instant, the sounds of the Japanese charging could be heard all over the mountains and plains. The shouts of killing filled the entire factory.
At this time, Li Yun Long and the others had just returned to Yang Village. The soldiers were unloading the trucks in the courtyard when the deafening sound of cannons came from afar.
"Where are we firing? Where are we firing?" Kong Jie, the deputy commander, was immediately energized when he heard the cannon fire. He rushed outside in a hurry.
Li Yunlong stood on the wall and took the binoculars from Kong Jie. He looked in the direction of the cannon.
"It's the direction of Frontline Sky. Gather the troops immediately. There's definitely going to be a battle!”
"Number officer!" "Sound the assembly signal! Everyone, gather immediately!" Kong Jie shouted.”
This unit was the 12th regiment of Country R's 29th Brigade, the Yamazaki Battalion of the 5th Infantry Brigade. The entire brigade had a total of 1200 people.
On October 6, 1940, Country R mobilized tens of thousands of troops to carry out retaliatory mopping-up operations. They also carried out the inhumane " three light " strategy against the people in the base area in an attempt to destroy the living conditions of the Human Road Army in the base area.
All the people in the base area, regardless of whether they were men or women, old or young, were killed, their houses burned, their food stolen or burned, even their pots and bowls smashed, and poison was put into every well.
They were one of the troops that participated in this sweep. They burned, killed, and looted along the way, harming several villages. Hundreds of unarmed civilians were cruelly killed by them.
This time, they had accidentally passed through the precipitous Line of Sky, barged into the base, and launched this surprise attack.
As for the company commander who was guarding the frontline, he did not even fire a shot because he was afraid of the enemy.
At the same time, the news of the attack on the arsenal had reached the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
The president shouted at the deputy chief of staff angrily,"Capture that company commander who fled at the last moment and shoot him to death! Son of a b * tch, you're a disgrace to the Eighth Route Army.”
" I've already ordered the Military Law Department to execute them," the deputy chief of staff said." Judging from the enemy's movements, they don't know that we have an arsenal here.”
The boss slammed his fist on the table, causing the cup on the table to jump up."Kill this son of a b * tch Yamazaki Battalion.”
