Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 329 Killing Yamamoto Ikki and wiping out Yamamoto's special forces! (Subscribe)

What kind of play is this?
Zhou Weiguo, who was about to take over command of the operation, was shocked after hearing the report.

There were a total of more than two hundred elite Japanese soldiers.

Intending to break through the village where more than 800 of his people were stationed?

This is a battle that must be won.

If the Japanese turned around and ran, the subsequent pursuit would be very troublesome.

It is possible that troops stationed on the periphery will need to be deployed to cooperate in the encirclement and suppression.

And now, the commander of this Japanese army was either killed in the artillery bombardment or kicked in the head by a donkey.

"After hearing such dense sound of Thompson submachine gun fire, they didn't choose to retreat immediately. Are these Japanese devils tired of living?" Xu Hu was puzzled.

"The old man hanged himself, is he really dissatisfied with his life?" Zhou Weiguo couldn't help but think more. Could it be that the enemy was showing weakness on its own initiative?
It doesn’t quite look like it!

These little devils are really weird!
Is it a deliberate attempt to attract the attention of my assault regiment, so that other assault troops can use this opportunity to attack the headquarters?
Thinking of this, Zhou Weiguo couldn't help but feel nervous, and immediately stood up to make a phone call.
"Report."

The communicator walked quickly into the command center.

"Captain Wei reports that more than half of the Japanese troops have been killed by our army. Should we launch a counterattack?"

"Xu Hu, you take command of this battle and kill these bastards." Zhou Weiguo continued to give the order.

"Yes!"

Xu Hu stood up and left the command center, and Zhou Weiguo called the attacking army command center.

"Reporting to Commander Qian, our army has been engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy's elite troops outside Sunzhuang. We are currently gaining the upper hand and are expected to annihilate the enemy within four hours."

"Very good, the president is right beside me. Is there anything else you want to report?"

"The enemy's movements are strange and seem to be trying to attract our attention. Please strengthen the defense of the surrounding areas. I am worried that they will launch a decapitation operation against the headquarters."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements immediately."

After Qian Bojun hung up the phone, he briefly relayed Zhou Weiguo's report.

Chu Yunfei nodded.

"I plan to expand the security circle so that it will be easier to evacuate if something goes wrong."

Chu Yunfei nodded. Even though he knew there were no other attacking troops, he did not speak out to stop them. "Tell Wu Dadan and the others to step up their alert. The Guards Regiment hasn't seen combat for three months. After this battle, we'll make some personnel adjustments and rotations."

"In addition, the establishment of the Operations and Communications Departments must also be accelerated, and the chiefs of staff and staff officers at all levels must also be quickly appointed."

"Yes!"

Qian Bojun did have his own chief of staff and operations staff.

But the expansion was so fast that he couldn't even promote a few qualified combat staff officers.

He wanted to ask the Second War Zone Commander's Headquarters to transfer some troops.

But after the telegram was sent, few people were willing to come.

It’s not that there is no future following Chu Yunfei, but that there is no money to be made.

Rather than following Chu Yunfei through life and death, it would be better to just eat and wait for death in other troops.

Chu Yunfei knew clearly what these old soldiers were thinking.

"Also, do we need to contact Director Zhang Hefeng again?"

"What was his attitude before?"

"It's unclear, but I think it should be more supportive."

Chu Yunfei nodded: "We can do the corresponding work after the battle is over. We don't have much energy now."

"Yes!"

the other side.

Outskirts of Sunzhuang.

The commander of the Yamamoto Special Forces, Colonel Yamamoto Ikki, had been killed by a stray bullet that came from nowhere.

The remaining Japanese soldiers relied on the terrain to put up a stubborn resistance, but they basically could not hold out for too long.

Automatic guns have strong firepower, but at the same time, they consume a lot of ammunition.

They were infiltrating lightly, and after fighting for more than an hour, most of the Japanese had run out of ammunition.

Similarly, it was not that they did not want to retreat, but at the beginning of the battle, this group of extremely proud Japanese devils really wanted to break through the assault regiment's defense line and then directly attack Dongye Town.

When Yamamoto Ikki died and they wanted to retreat, they found that they had been surrounded by three combat companies.

Under Xu Hu's command, the more than 40 surviving Japanese soldiers were compressed onto a bare hill of less than one square kilometer, with almost no cover except for some scattered rocks.

After just one round of attack, more than half of the remaining Japanese soldiers were killed or wounded.

But still not a single Japanese soldier thought of surrendering.

However, for them, resistance is futile.

at the foot of the mountain.

Xu Hu raised the telescope in his hand and looked at the group of Japanese devils.

Wei Dayong squatted behind the stone, feeling a little strange: "Xu Hu, do you think these little devils are the same ones who raided the friendly army headquarters before?"

"It's really possible. This equipment and features are consistent with the intelligence of the Second War Zone Commander's Headquarters. It's a pity that these Japanese devils are too stubborn. If they surrender, we can probably get more intelligence." Xu Hu sighed and put down the telescope in his hand.

He waved to the mortar and grenade launcher shooters behind him.

"They are not puppet soldiers. If puppet soldiers are released, they know we won't kill them. But we didn't release any of the Japanese soldiers. Even if they are fools, they know we won't take prisoners."

Xu Hu was thoughtful: "Of course I know this. I originally had the same idea as the regiment commander, thinking that they were bait to die, but the battle has been going on until now. I haven't heard that the headquarters has been attacked."

"Could it have crashed into our defense zone?" Wei Dayong scratched his head and asked with a smile.

"It's not impossible, but the possibility is not high."

"Forget it... I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, the commander didn't allow us to leave anyone alive. We can just kill them all when daybreak comes. This will save casualties and reduce the use of flares."

"You're right, I think so too." Xu Hu smiled and nodded in response.

soon.

Another half hour passed.

Its daybreak.

As Xu Hu raised his arms high, they quickly fell down.

The gunners who had been prepared immediately completed the loading of the corresponding mortar shells and grenade launcher grenades.

Chirp~!

As the shrill screams continued to come.

One by one, the mortar shells fell into the rubble.

Occasionally, the Japanese would try to roll and evade through tactical moves.

The next moment they will be shot dead by the precision shooters who are watching them.

Dozens of Japanese soldiers were killed in just ten minutes.

Under the leadership of Wei Dayong, the third combat company quickly moved forward to clean up the mess.

the other side.

Zhou Weiguo also walked to the side of Yamamoto Ikki's body, where weapons and equipment were placed.

"Yamamoto Ikki. Rank: Colonel."

Apart from this, there is no other information.

The unit number should also be kept confidential.

Zhou Weiguo threw the certificate in his hand aside and looked at the helmet that he had picked up: "This helmet seems to be made of a new material?" "It should be. It doesn't reflect light under the sun. I guess it has bulletproof function, but after testing it, I found that it can still be penetrated."

"It could also be to prevent fragmentation, or it could be unlikely that something as light as a pistol, rifle, or machine gun bullet could stop it." Zhou Weiguo frowned slightly and made a simple analysis: "The camouflage net on it is not bad either, it should be made of nylon."

Under Zhou Weiguo's order, several soldiers removed it from their helmets and conducted corresponding small tests.

After being tied and hung, it can hang four Springfield rifles.

I won't add any more, this is enough.

Everyone was shocked.

Even Zhou Weiguo couldn't help but sigh that the Japanese devils really went to extremes in such details.

Quickly return to the command center.

Zhou Weiguo called the headquarters again.

"Hello, I'm Chu Yunfei"

[General, we have seized some automatic rifles, bulletproof helmets, and carrying gear. I would like to ask you how to deal with these things? ]

"I will arrange for relevant personnel to receive it and then transport it to Changzhi area."

"Yes!"

Chu Yunfei hung up the phone.

Since Zhou Weiguo didn't ask, he didn't say anything.

Some of these things have been seized before.

They were sent to the corresponding military research institute in the rear.

It’s just that the time is still short and we haven’t figured out anything yet.

Chu Yunfei planned to allocate a few to the 18th Group Army.

Tell the truth.

He was also curious whether he could really develop this "new material" in the cave.

If it is really possible, it would be really awesome.

At the same time, part of the remaining will be sent to the Northwest Manufacturing Bureau's Ordnance Department, part will be sent to the rear like the 14th Army, and the rest will be handed over to the Americans.
If the effect is really good, the Americans will naturally provide some to the combat troops where Chu Yunfei is after mass production.

It is worth mentioning that there were corresponding research institutions during the Republic of China period.

Even research institutes related to agriculture are fully equipped.

It’s just that the equipment and personnel level are relatively insufficient.

There are no particularly famous scholars, and no epoch-making research results.

In fact, the funding for these institutions is more abundant than that for military spending.

Many of these people later devoted themselves to the construction of the scientific research system after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

He has made many contributions to the Chinese people.

It is also one of the few things about the Nationalist government that deserves praise.

mountain city.

Command headquarters.

Chang Ruiyuan had just peeled the egg in front of him when he noticed that Wang Shihe seemed to be hesitant to speak and pretending to be nothing.

Chang Ruiyuan knew his deputy chief guard quite well, and immediately said, "Just say whatever you want to say."

Wang Shihe was silent for three or two seconds. "The latest news from the Second War Zone is that a small elite Japanese force launched an attack on the Flying Tigers' attack headquarters. The two sides are fighting fiercely in Sunzhuang, less than six miles away from the headquarters in Dongye Town."

Chang Ruiyuan was startled, put the egg in his hand aside, turned around and looked at Wang Shihe seriously: "How much time has passed?"

"Forty-five minutes"

Chang Ruiyuan took a deep breath, stood up and ordered: "Send a telegram immediately to inquire about the details."

"Chairman..."

"I'm not in the mood. I won't eat."

"Yes, I will go and arrange it immediately."

Chang Ruiyuan nodded, immediately stood up and walked towards the large combat meeting room.

The Nanchang direction was guarded by the 74th Army.

The situation has basically stabilized.

The two sides were in a de facto standoff.

Except for Fengxin, Lehua and Anyi which were controlled by the Japanese army, the rest were strategic locations.

For example, Gao'an and other places were basically still in the hands of the National Revolutionary Army.

This battle has to be fought.

The Japanese army mobilized two divisions to fight this time.

The battle lasted for more than 20 days without any rest or corresponding rotation.

After learning that the battle line had been stabilized.

Chang Ruiyuan and others decided to attack the two divisions of the salient in order to achieve the goal of a comprehensive counterattack.

Preparations were made to mobilize the 32nd Army of Shangguan Yunxiang of the Third War Zone, the 19th Army of Luo Zhuoying of the Ninth War Zone, the 1st Army of Gao Yinhuai, and the 30th Army of Wang Lingji.

A total of eight armies and twenty-two divisions of combat strength.
Today's combat meeting is the Military Committee's final discussion on the feasibility of the counterattack plan.

Wait until everyone is in place.

Xu Yongchang immediately began to speak out. Like everyone else, he clearly supported the counterattack.

In the eyes of this group of people, this is a great opportunity to achieve a big victory.

The second person to speak was Chen Cixiu.

"Gao's army will use part of its forces to monitor the enemy in Anyi, Fengxin, and Jing'an and attack them when the opportunity arises. The main forces will advance along the Nanxun Line between Lehua and Yongxiu from both sides of Fengxin and Anyi."

He was eager to counterattack and achieve success, after all, Luo Zhuoying was his man.

Following them were Deputy Chief of the General Staff Bai Jiansheng and Chief of the General Staff Cheng Qian.

Chang Ruiyuan hadn't even opened his mouth yet so many people had already clearly supported the counterattack.

He nodded slightly, feeling extremely satisfied. "We will discuss the specific combat plan after the General Staff Headquarters draws it up. We will also discuss the relevant matters of the strategic counterattack in the Second War Zone today."

"Jingzhi, how much supplies does the Second War Zone Commander's Headquarters estimate will need to be replenished?"

He Yingqin was able to reach this position, naturally he had some basic abilities.

Under Chang Ruiyuan's sudden question, he still answered fluently: "75 million rounds of mm bullets, million rounds of various machine gun bullets, rounds of mm mountain artillery shells, and various mortar shells..."

"In addition, a number of other combat equipment will be needed, with a total military expenditure of 73.5 million national currency.

In addition, the vast majority of equipment production capacity in the country is currently unavailable, and I have ordered people to import them.

A month ago, we reached a relevant agreement with the Soviets. The Soviets will urgently allocate a batch of supplies from their current weapons and equipment. It is estimated that it will take another month for them to arrive in China."

Chang Ruiyuan nodded with satisfaction.

One month later, it was April 25th.

Just from the perspective of time, it should still be in time.

As long as there are no problems with Chu Yunfei and the Flying Tigers Attack Army Command, the situation in the Second War Zone will not deteriorate.

"The Japanese are now in a predicament of insufficient military strength, and now they have sent someone to inform us that they want to negotiate."

Chang Ruiyuan had already stood up at this time, looking confident of victory: "I have sent a secret telegram to Yongzhi, letting him express my thoughts and opinions. If the Japanese want peace, they must retreat to the time before the Marco Polo Bridge Incident."
