Chapter 1129 Making wedding clothes for others
South of Wuxing Mountain, in front of a cliff.
Kenji Doihara was climbing a ladder and painting on the cliff.
He concentrated his energy and wrote down the four big words "Tu Fei Tun Bu".
On the flat ground below, more than 2,000 Japanese officers and soldiers lined up in an orderly manner to watch him write.
Needless to say, the Japanese soldiers were so hungry that they were exhausted and some of them fell down from time to time.
Doihara Ken'er threw down his brush and said arrogantly, "Yoshi! It's done. My calligraphy will be passed down through the ages."
"Crack!"
The ladder couldn't bear his 250-pound weight and broke into two pieces.
Kenji Doihara fell off the ladder and landed on the ground.
The Japanese soldiers burst into laughter, showing their extreme disrespect for him.
Takahashi Komasa and the Japanese officer rushed over and helped him up.
Doihara Ken'er looked at the devils who were laughing at him fiercely with his eyes like lightning, and announced loudly:
"The whole army is marching north! Suppress Chen Feng's Eighth Route Army in China, and seize food, horses, and beautiful girls."
The Japanese soldiers shouted excitedly: "Yoshi! Grab the food, grab the horses, grab the beautiful girls."
"Strangle the dog!"
Doihara Ken'er waved his hand and led the Japanese soldiers away from the Doihara garrison.
Takahashi Komasa looked back at the well-prepared fortifications and advised, "Your Excellency the Division Commander! It is far from enough for you to leave a small team to guard here. It is better to leave a squadron."
Doihara Xian'er shook his head and said, "No! Doi Tunbao is impregnable. Leaving a small team to defend it is more than enough. Besides, there is not enough food on the mountain. It can only sustain a small team for about one to two days."
Gao Qiao Xiaozheng smiled bitterly and said, "Why not leave anyone behind? Let's all go with us to grab food."
Doihara Xianer scolded: "You know shit! We kept them here to wait for Zhang Fei's team to come back, and to protect the well-fortified Toi Tunbao and the wheat that's growing well."
Gao Qiao Xiaozheng was very upset after being scolded, and deliberately said nonsense: "Your Excellency the Division Commander! Even though you brought so many people to Wolong Village to fight against Chen Feng's Eighth Route Army, half of them will starve to death when they reach Wolong Village."
Doihara Xian'er felt hungry and nodded, "Indeed! There is a lake ahead. Order the whole army to catch fish and roast them. Eat until you are full before leaving."
"Hello!"
Takahashi Komasa hurriedly took the order and gave the order to catch and grill the fish.
When the Japanese soldiers heard about getting food, they immediately showed great enthusiasm.
This greatly slowed down the pace of attacking Wolong Village.
In Wolong Village, the special operations detachment is ready to march.
All the necessary supplies were loaded onto horses and carriages.
Four hundred people changed into Japanese military uniforms, and one hundred people retained the Eighth Route Army uniforms.
Xiang Chu wore the Japanese colonel's uniform and played the role of Zhang Fei, the commander of the Doihara Division.
Lan Cheng, dressed in the uniform of the Eighth Route Army and leading a hundred veterans in the front, played the role of a special operations detachment being chased by the Doihara Division.
The troops gathered at the entrance of the village, ready to go.
"Report——!"
Ai Hai rode back and reported loudly:
"Captain! The film projection team is back."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Captain Ai! You guys transform into a reconnaissance team and have a full grasp of the battlefield dynamics."
"Yes!"
Ai Hai hurriedly accepted the order.
At this moment, a shadow spy ran over and reported loudly:
"Captain! Doihara Xian'er named the camp south of Wuxing Mountain Doi Tunbao, left a small group of Japanese soldiers behind, and led the others to come here, and went fishing in the lake along the way."
Gan Rong said with a smile: "Captain! You are really good at predicting the enemy."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "This is because I know Doihara Ken'er too well. It would be hard to predict if it were someone else. Let's go! After we rescue the miners, we will seize Doihara Ken'er's Doi Tunbao."
Ai Hai said hurriedly: "Captain! I sneaked into the Doi Tunbao. Doihara Xianer led two regiments of Japanese soldiers and spent more than three months repairing the fortifications and reclaiming and planting wheat fields all over the mountains."
Xiang Chu asked: "What kind of defenses have been built at Tufei Tunbao?"
Ai Hai said in detail: "There are bunkers, shelters, cat-ear caves and everything else, forming a crossfire."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Let Doihara Xian'er deeply feel what it means to make wedding clothes for others."
Lan Cheng ran up and asked, "Captain! Should we burn down Wolong Village and leave a ruin for Doihara Xian'er?"
Xiang Chu looked back at Wolong Village and shook his head, saying, "No need! We in the Eighth Route Army must not burn down the houses of the people. Let Doihara Xian'er stay for a few more days to buy some time for us to occupy his 'Doihara Tunbao'."
Lan Cheng smiled and said, "That's great! I can exchange accommodation with him. His place is impregnable."
Xiang Chu waved his hand and said, "Captain Lan! Hurry up and lead the troops to set off. If you encounter the Japs, sneak behind us. If you encounter the Eighth Route Army, go up and block them. Try not to shoot along the way and maintain radio communication."
"Yes!"
Lan Cheng hurriedly took the order and rode his horse forward.
The two teams were two miles apart, one in front and one behind, running towards the Dongfeng Coal Mine.
Jincheng, the office of the commander of the Japanese garrison army.
The Japanese regiment commander Okazaki Takeo is studying "Wu Zi's Art of War" carefully.
He is a fan of Wu Qi and always motivates himself with Wu Qi's spirit.
He paid special attention to troop training and cared about the sufferings of his soldiers, and was deeply loved by his soldiers.
At this time, his attendant, Tanakatani Rong, ran into the office holding a medal and said happily:
"Mr. Commander! The Red Sun Medal awarded to you by the headquarters has been delivered."
Okazaki Takeo didn't even look at it, and waved his hand and said, "This medal was obtained for the meritorious service in guarding the Dongfeng Coal Mine, not for fighting on the battlefield, so it's not worth mentioning."
Tanaka Tani Rong placed the medal on his desk and said with a smile:
"This medal is nothing to you, but it is something that others cannot even dream of."
Okazaki Takeo threw Wu Zi's Art of War into the corner and sighed loudly, "Alas! When will I be able to annihilate tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers on the battlefield like Wu Qi and achieve unparalleled military exploits?
Even if we can just massacre some Chinese civilians like in the Nanjing Massacre, that would be great.”
Tanaka Tani Rong said with a smile: "Your Excellency, Commander! According to intelligence, the Chinese Special Operations Detachment is in Wolong Village in the north of Wuxing Mountain. They have sent personnel to recruit soldiers. If we can destroy this detachment, it will be an unprecedented military achievement."
Okazaki Takeo stood up and ordered, "Mobilize a battalion and follow this colonel to Wolong Village overnight to wipe out the Eighth Route Army Special Operations Detachment from the face of the earth."
At this moment, the office phone rang.
Okazaki Takeo picked up the phone and heard an instruction:
"Xiaozhi! Take your squadron to the south gate of Jiaozuo City immediately and fight a big battle with your uncle."
After he finished speaking, he put down the phone and said with a smile, "Gu Rong! Xiao Zhi is tired of guarding the Dongfeng Coal Mine every day, and he also wants to lead the squadron to fight. This time it's just right to take him with us."
Tanaka Tani Rong said worriedly: "Your Excellency the commander! The Okazaki Squadron left the Dongfeng Coal Mine, and only the Matsushita Squadron was left. What if the Eighth Route Army attacked..."
Okazaki Takeo interrupted him and said disapprovingly, "The Dongfeng Coal Mine is well-fortified, and the Matsushita Squadron is more than capable of defending it. Even if all the Eighth Route Army comes to attack, they won't be able to take it down. Go and gather the troops."
"Hello!"
Tanaka Tani Rong bowed and accepted the order.
