War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 91: Changing Orders Every Day

Chapter 91: Changing Orders Every Day (Thanks to '鬻笨' for the 500 reward!)
"Major!"

At the station, Terauchi Murakazu was staring at the map and measuring with a ruler. When his subordinates came to report, he completely lost his initial composure and walked quickly to his subordinates and asked, "You'd better tell me that the bastards in the mountains have been killed by the Yamazaki team!"

The subordinate lowered his head, but this time it was not a courtesy: "I'm sorry, Major... The answer is exactly the opposite. The scouts we sent out did not come back."

"I think the Yamazaki squad has probably been wiped out, and without causing too much damage to the enemy."

Terauchimura was stunned for a moment, then asked, "How many of them are there?"

"It's not clear yet, but judging from the sound of gunfire, there are definitely no more than a hundred people."

Terauchimura paused for a moment, lost in thought. He did not get furious like other commanders in this situation, but his bloodshot eyes proved that he was not not angry, he was just trying his best to restrain himself.

"Order the artillery positions to hide as much as possible and not to engage in fire with the enemy..."

"Major!" the subordinate asked in surprise, "There are a total of 55 artillerymen we borrowed. Are they capable of..."

"This is an order!"

Terauchimura shouted loudly, and then explained: "The enemy's strategic goal is to alleviate the predicament of Yang's army by attacking the station, so this group of people can even be said to be willing to pay any price to defeat us!"

"Since you know the other party's intentions, why don't you follow their wishes?"

"Instead of guessing aimlessly where they are, it's better to let them appear before our eyes!"

"With our weapons configuration, no one in this land can kill us instantly..."

The soldier continued, "You mean, as long as we hold out against the first round of attacks, no matter what the outcome, the artillery will have time to adjust the muzzle and launch an artillery attack on the enemy position."

"That's right!"

Terauchimura gritted his teeth and said, "These people are really capable, and they deserve our attention."

"In Chinese history, there was a king named 'Dayu' who, when faced with a flood, did not simply block it, but dredged the river to allow the flood to flow to other places..."

"Then why can't we do this?"

"Let them come, rush over like a flood, let them expose themselves, let them use the sound of gunfire to actively request artillery coverage, we just need to wait quietly..."

……

"Brother, the station!"

Xu Chaoyang appeared near the station at Qu Yong's shouting, but to his surprise, not only did they not encounter any ambushes along the way, but they actually felt more and more uneasy as they walked.

It’s a bit like being sent home coldly by your family after a parent-teacher meeting. When you know what’s going to happen but it doesn’t, the torment of waiting for pain to come suddenly appears.

"do not move!"

Xu Chaoyang hid behind a tree and looked at the station in the distance. He saw the tight defense inside the station and the pheasant neck that was constantly being raised by padding with sacks and aiming at the top of the hill.

The Japanese were guarding against possible enemies appearing on the top of the mountain. In other words, the enemy commander had already judged the situation of the Yamazaki squad and adjusted the entire defense strategy before they arrived.

But why didn't they immediately seize the commanding heights around them?
Xu Chaoyang even raised his head to take a look at the nearby hills, thinking with a completely out-of-date way of thinking: "Could it be that the people up there have laid out a minefield in advance, just waiting for us to get up there?"

Otherwise, he really couldn't understand why the Japanese left such a good firepower point vacant. It was already a big deal for a squadron to come out with Type 92 infantry guns, but could they also come with mines?

If they were really equipped to this level, they would probably be able to fight the Russians, right? Would he be taken so seriously? With just a few dozen of them?
calm down!

Must calm down!

Xu Chaoyang was thinking and comforting himself. He knew that only when he calmed down would he be able to deal with the current situation.

……

"report!"

"Enemy troops have been spotted!" When Terauchi Murakami heard this in the station command room, he even raised his eyelids with excitement: "Where are the people? How many are there? Why aren't they attacking?" He asked all the questions in a row and waited for the answers he expected to appear.

The soldiers came up quickly and pointed to the small valley next to the station: "Here, there are about twenty people. As for why they didn't attack, I don't know..."

"How many?"

Terauchi Murakami asked in disbelief.

"The men at the artillery position have spotted them, and they say this is the exact number."

"impossible!"

Terauchimura swept his hands across the table, sweeping the pen holder, phone, and water cup to the ground, and roared, "No way!"

"Twenty people can't kill the Yamazaki squad so quickly. Twenty people can't rush to my machine gun position, let alone open fire on an entire squadron from hundreds of meters away!"

"This is a shame!" Terauchi Murakami was not actually questioning. What he really wanted to say, translated into modern Internet language, should be: "How dare they!"

"report!"

Another Japanese soldier rushed into the office in an instant. When the two Japanese soldiers stood together, the second Japanese soldier said, "Report to the major, the enemy troops have been spotted at the rear of the station."

"How many people?" Terauchi Murakami looked at the other party with more anticipation.

"About twenty..."

Terauchi Mura fell silent. He didn't know what to say. Even if there were twenty people on each side, that would only add up to about forty, not even as many as a full-strength team. How could he not remain silent?
This is tantamount to saying that Yamazaki is a fool for letting someone wipe out the entire squad in one encounter; it is more like saying that he, the squadron leader, is an idiot for bringing out such subordinates...

"Major?"

The soldier asked: "Should we continue to wait as planned, until all the enemies rush to the commanding heights closest to us, and then bombard them..."

The soldier suddenly didn't dare to ask, because as he was speaking, he felt the brewing anger in Terauchi Murakami that was about to burst out.

At this moment, Terauchi Murakazu was very much like a gambler who was originally very confident, but after entering the casino, he guessed the wrong answer several times in a row. He began to doubt himself, and began to doubt whether he could control this ever-changing battlefield. He even didn't know in agony whether he should continue to wait for the gunshots that had not yet been heard.

Reason told him that he should immediately issue a combat order and have the artillery bombard the enemy troops that had been discovered in order to destroy the enemy's manpower to the greatest extent possible;

But his hope was telling him that the enemy would sooner or later gain access to the commanding heights, which was after all the most advantageous position for attacking the station.

Just like everyone who is faced with life choices and doesn't know how to choose, their heartbeat always speeds up at critical moments.

This is how the world is. Sometimes when you are at your wits' end, your enemies may be in a worse situation. At this time, it depends on who has more patience...

"Shelling."

The faint sound of mosquitoes appeared in the station.

"Major, what did you say?"

When questioned by the soldiers, Terauchi Murakami raised his head angrily and shouted at the top of his voice: "Bombardment! I said bombardment!"

"Tell the soldiers on the artillery positions to eliminate all enemies within sight as quickly as possible!"

The soldier... was dumbfounded.

He had just conveyed the instructions of forbearance to the artillery position according to the order of the superior, but he did not expect that a few minutes later, the superior changed his order...

 Thanks to brother '鬻笨' for the 500 yuan reward. Thank you very much.

  By the way, I will not change the ten thousand word update. My brain is not working well today, and it is difficult to revise the later chapters. I will go to take a nap, and when I wake up I will continue to finish the later chapters and then I can publish them.

  I said I would write 10,000 words every day, and it means 10,000 words every day. I just need to adjust my time. Thank you very much.
