Chapter 407: The Guerrilla Detachment's Lair
Xiang Chu couldn't help but ask: "Three uncles! What weapons do your troops have now?"
Mr. Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Boy! To be honest, we are short of manpower. We only have a Hanyang-made rifle and a broadsword to supplement it. We have about 5 bullets and not many grenades."
Mr. Mi corrected him: "It's not that shabby. There are still a few Czech machine guns."
"We have guns but no bullets, which is about the same as a firewood stick."
Mr. Wang said unhappily, paused, and shook his head.
"The reactionaries won't assign us guerrillas, so we can only rely on the weapons we capture from the devils."
"So lacking?"
Xiang Chu said in astonishment, paused, and begged, "Three uncles! Please take all these weapons and equipment away. It would be so painful for me to come all the way from Shanghai and not be able to send them away."
Mr. Wang shouted, "I feel like you are showing off."
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "No way! I sincerely beg you to take them all away."
Mr. Mi shook his head and said, "These iron vehicles are of no use to us. They run out of gas after a short distance. Heavy weapons are not convenient for our guerrilla warfare. Let's use light weapons."
Mr. Liang nodded and said, "Yes! We took light and heavy machine guns, anti-tank guns, grenade launchers, Type 38 rifles, and weapons and ammunition."
Xiang Chu said anxiously: "Where are the Type 92 infantry guns? Take away at least two."
Mr. Wang said with a smile, "Lao Mi! Why don't we build one so that the soldiers can see it."
Mr. Mi nodded and said, "Okay! Ask an old party member you trust to come and move the things. You must not expose Chu."
"I know!"
Mr. Wang nodded and turned to run towards his troops.
Mr. Mi asked with a smile: "Chu boy! How are you going to act?"
Xiang Chu said thoughtfully: "Uncles! I want half of these dead devils to wear your military uniforms, and then pretend to be beaten to death by my people, so that we can both lose."
Mr. Liang praised: "This is a very good plan! I will implement it immediately."
After saying this, he turned and ran towards his troops.
"Yes! That's right, I'll give you a big gift."
Mr. Mi nodded, took out a map and handed it to Xiang Chu, saying with a smile,
"We are just about to move out of the guerrilla base in the west of Maoshan. You can lead your men to attack there tomorrow and report to the higher-ups for credit."
Xiang Chu took the map and said hesitantly, "Uncle Mi! Your nest is very well chosen. Are you really willing to give it up?"
Mr. Mi patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly: "Chu boy! You have provided so much intelligence and supplies to the organization and saved so many lives of comrades. How could your uncle be reluctant to let you go for your safety?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Don't praise me, I will be proud."
Mr. Mi smiled and said, “You are totally worthy of being proud!”
Soon, more than a hundred loyal Communist Party soldiers rushed over, carrying weapons and ammunition in an orderly manner, and took the Japanese corpses off the car and changed them into Chinese soldiers' uniforms.
In the end, a large amount of weapons and ammunition were left behind.
In order to act, Xiang Chu no longer insisted on taking her away.
At dawn, everything that needed to be taken was finally taken away.
Xiang Chu waited for Mr. Mi to lead the troops to leave, and started firing guns and cannons at the open space. After a while of noise, they were too lazy to go outside Qianyuan Temple, so they simply rested where they were.
Early in the morning, Zheng Zhili led the Lamma Squadron to rush over.
They were stunned when they saw the bodies of Chinese soldiers everywhere.
Li Tong laughed and said, "They are all Japanese butcher soldiers. We took our equipment and found someone to exchange for clothes."
"I see!"
Everyone suddenly realized.
Xiang Chu got off the Type 92 armored vehicle and shouted:
"Everyone get in the car immediately and follow this general to attack the lair of the New Fourth Army guerrillas of China."
Li Tong reminded softly: "Little Master! Is this the right way to call him?"
Xiang Chu scolded, "What's wrong? Hurry up and get the Japanese soldiers wearing Chinese military uniforms onto the car, and let's continue the show."
Li Tong said with a smile, "I understand. Drop a few at intervals and shoot randomly."
"If you act well, I'll send you to the United States to film."
Xiang Chu nodded approvingly and got into the armored car.
He took out the map drawn by Mr. Mi himself, and felt that it was more detailed than the Japanese map.
Zheng Zhili asked with a smile: "General! Where is the New Fourth Army guerrillas' lair?"
"Maoshan West!"
Xiang Chu smiled, picked up the megaphone and shouted,
"set off!"
The convoy started and drove towards the west of Maoshan.
Li Tong and others threw the corpses of the Japanese soldiers along the way and fired guns and cannons indiscriminately, as if they were always fighting.
When they were approaching the border of Jurong County, a huge mechanized force of the Japanese invaders caught up with them from behind.
Xiang Chu got out of the car and asked his convoy to pull over to let the Japanese troops go first.
When they got closer, they found out that it was the Japanese Type A Division, the 13th Division.
Division Commander Rikinami Ogishu participated in Bandai Hitoshi's last visit.
When he saw Xiang Chu, he immediately got out of the car and walked up to him to greet him warmly:
"Leader of the Yamashita Generation! I didn't expect to see you here again. You killed so many Chinese soldiers, and you also suffered heavy casualties. Were you ambushed?"
"So it's the Ogishu Division Commander, yes!"
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly, showed him Mr. Mi's map, and pretended to say hatefully, "I seized the hand-drawn map of this Chinese army, and immediately rushed into their lair to avenge the dead imperial warriors."
Ogisu Rinhei took a look at the map and said in amazement: "This must be a map drawn by a top student from the Huangpu Military Academy. You have caught a big fish. Congratulations!"
"I will go to the lair of this Chinese army right now and capture them all in one fell swoop!"
Xiang Chu clenched his right fist and said angrily, took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to him, and asked with a smile:
"Captain Ogisu! Where are you going?"
"Thank you, Daiichi!"
Ogishu Riki happily took the cigarette and responded,
"Let's go to Linhuai Pass!"
Xiang Chu lit a cigarette and frowned, "Wouldn't it be too dangerous for a single army to go north to seize Xuzhou?"
Dizhou Libing laughed and said, "How can we fight alone? We will send out 24 troops to attack Xuzhou from the north and south."
"Great!"
Xiang Chu pretended to be excited and pointed to the west.
"Once I have eliminated that Chinese army, I will go to Linhuai Pass to ask you for your combat experience."
"it is good!"
Ogizhou Libing said happily.
Xiang Chu waited for him to leave, then immediately got in the car and sent a telegram to Song Xi:
"Sister Xi! I just received intelligence that the 13th Division is heading to Linhuai Pass, and the enemy will send 24 troops to attack Xuzhou from the north and south. Xiang Chu!"
Not long after, Song Xi called back as if possessed by a ghost: "Dear! Your information is very timely. Sister Xi!"
Xiang Chu was shocked and immediately replied: "Sister Xi! I guess your face must be red."
Song Xi replied: "Get lost! I was just half asleep and was talking in my sleep."
Xiang Chu called back: "Yeah! I guess you dreamed about me again."
Song Xi no longer called back, indicating that she agreed with what he said.
Soon, the convoy arrived at the road west of Maoshan.
Xiang Chu left a small team behind and took the others up the mountain, pushing two Type 92 infantry guns and carrying grenade launchers and heavy machine guns.
With the guidance of Mr. Youmi's hand-drawn map, we sneaked into his extremely hidden lair at noon.
Xiang Chu held the command knife in his hand, pointed at the guerrillas' lair and shouted: "Give me the peaches! Kill them!"
"kill!"
The Lamma Squadron roared in a pretentious manner.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound of gunfire, and the guerrillas' lair was attacked.
In order to make the scene more realistic, Mr. Mi left behind a large number of party members and soldiers, who shouted and fired a few shots before running away.
Soon, Xiang Chu led the Nan Ya Squadron into the guerrilla command post and ordered Zheng Zhili domineeringly:
"Chiyo-kun! Take pictures as much as you can. This general needs to report the results of the battle to Commander Kageo Ishida."
"Hello!"
Zheng Zhili hurriedly accepted the order.
Xiang Chu ordered Bao Ge: "Pingxiang Bao Ge! Send a telegram to the Central China Front Army Headquarters. The Military Police Supervision Battalion destroyed the lair of the Chinese Maoshan guerrilla detachment at the cost of sacrificing the Kishida Squadron, and killed more than 2,000 Chinese resistance elements."
Bao Ge looked at the empty surroundings and said with a wry smile, "General! We destroyed the guerrilla detachment's lair? We killed two thousand rebels? Are we exaggerating?"
