Chapter 1421 The battle between man and dog
To the south of Wuxing Mountain, there are many artillery towers.
There are also long trenches and dense barbed wire.
The Japanese soldiers and puppet troops kept patrolling the trenches.
If you want to enter Wuxing Mountain from the road coming from Yuntai Mountain, you must pass Xiaozhuang Fort.
Hu Changsheng hid in the forest near the Xiaozhuang artillery tower, thinking to himself: "This place is surrounded like an iron barrel, how can I get in? I have to report to the head of the agency immediately."
He quickly retreated back to the cave where he was hiding and sent a telegram to Xiang Chu.
Not long after, I received a reply: "Go to Xiluanshiyao, Xigou, and go to Wuxing Mountain by land and water."
Hu Changsheng turned off the radio, took out the map, found the stone kiln, and muttered to himself:
"Although Luanshiyao is convenient for water and land transportation, there are trenches and barbed wire, as well as a Japanese barracks. Why would the chief choose to enter the mountain from there?"
Yuntaishan, Qinglong Gorge.
Minaharu Noriyoshi led a large group of Japanese soldiers here.
A large grave was built beside the road, with a wooden sign that read:
"This is what happens to invaders! Ai Haishu from the Wuxing Mountain Special Operations Detachment."
"Damn Eighth Route Army Ai Hai!"
Minamoto Haruki roared in anger.
He drew his command knife and slashed at the wooden sign.
"Lie down quickly!"
Saburo Sasaki shouted and threw him to the ground.
"Boom!" There was a loud noise.
The grave exploded, killing or injuring the Japanese soldiers nearby.
Noriyoshi Minaharu and Saburo Sasaki were shocked and fainted, and it took them a while to wake up.
Minaharu Noriyoshi's face was scratched by shrapnel and was covered in blood.
Saburo Sasaki was hit in the leg by shrapnel and screamed in pain.
The Japanese medical soldiers rushed forward and first stopped the bleeding and bandaged the two officers.
With gauze wrapped around his face, Minaharu Noriyoshi roared in anger:
"Baga! The Eighth Route Army is so cunning."
Saburo Sasaki shook his head and said, "Captain! The combat power of a squad of the Empire is equivalent to that of a regiment of the Eighth Route Army, not to mention Zhiren's elite squad. I don't think it was done by the Eighth Route Army."
Yuanchun Noriyoshi asked doubtfully, "Not the Eighth Route Army?"
Saburo Sasaki dragged a Japanese soldier's body that had been blown out of a grave, pointed at the part that had been torn by the dog soldiers and said, "Captain! Look at these bite marks, they were all caused by the wolfhounds."
Minaharu Noriyoshi said bitterly: "How hateful! Doihara Kan'ei's lackeys really rebelled."
Sasaki Saburo still didn't quite believe it, and said thoughtfully: "Captain! Why don't we send troops to search the surrounding area to see who else intervened and attacked Zhiren's team."
Yuanchun Noriyoshi nodded and said, "Yoshi! Send someone to search."
"Hello!"
Saburo Sasaki bowed and accepted the order.
He sent out a team to search for clues in the surrounding area.
At this time, the Japanese radio operator received the message and reported loudly:
"Captain! Doihara Dairai has called and brought a division to attack the Eighth Route of Wuxing Mountain. Please assist him in his military operations and attack from the south to completely wipe out the Eighth Route of Wuxing Mountain."
Minaaki Noriyoshi asked in confusion: "Doihara Kan'er brought a division? That's impossible!"
Sasaki Saburo wanted to avenge his nephew, so he urged, "Captain! This is a great opportunity to make meritorious service, and to avenge the attack on the Eight Route Army of Wuxing Mountain."
Minaaki Noriyoshi looked at his troops and said worriedly:
"Chief of Staff! Today our army is here lightly armed, and our heavy weapons are all in the garrison. If we are ambushed by the Eighth Route Army or the dog soldiers, we may be completely wiped out."
Saburo Sasaki asked, "Captain! I am willing to take two squadrons and stay here to find and destroy the Eighth Route Army."
Minaaki Noriyoshi had already lost a lot of soldiers and was worried that he would defeat both squadrons. He said thoughtfully: "Chief of Staff! To prevent an ambush, it is better to wait for the reconnaissance team to find out the surrounding situation before making a decision."
"Hello!"
Saburo Sasaki accepted the order reluctantly.
Minaaki Noriyoshi ordered: "Radio operator! Call Doihara Kan'ei. Our brigade is willing to assist him in his military operations against the Eight Route Army of Wuxing Mountain."
"Hello!"
The Japanese radio operator hurriedly received the order.
Not long after, the Japanese reconnaissance team turned back.
The squad leader reported: "Captain! Except for the traces of the Eighth Route Army and the Dog Soldiers in the north, there are no traces of any troops on the other three sides."
Minaaki Noriyoshi ordered, "Chief of Staff! You take a squadron and stay behind to bury the fallen imperial warriors. Continue to send out reconnaissance and wait for this captain to come."
"Hello!"
Saburo Sasaki bowed and accepted the order, secretly delighted.
As soon as Minaaki Noriyoshi left, he immediately led his troops north.
To the north of Yuntaishan is the Xigou Rock Kiln.
There is a large lake at the foot of the mountain, from which the river branches off, connecting to the Gan River and leading directly to the Wuxing Mountain.
Under the cover of night, Liu Zhengxiong and Xiao Liu led the dog soldiers and arrived here first.
Under the hazy moonlight, there were Japanese soldiers standing guard on Xigou Bridge.
The Japanese army camp was lit up, and a huge murderous intent was hidden in the silence.
Liu Zhengxiong smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Liu! There is at least one battalion of Japanese soldiers in the camp. How can we get through?"
Xiao Liu said angrily: "We have dog soldiers, what are we afraid of?"
Liu Zhengxiong shook his head and said, "The enemy barracks are well-defended, with trenches, barbed wire, and bunkers. If the dog soldiers attack suddenly, they will be wiped out."
Xiao Liu sighed and said, "Old Liu! The boss said that if this Japanese dog bites too many people, it might become a mad dog. It would be a disaster if it was given to the Eighth Route Army."
Liu Zhengxiong gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay! Let's let the dogs bite. Next, we will train Chinese native dogs, and there will be no mad dogs."
The two men acted immediately and called the dog trainer spy, who brought the dog soldiers to Xigou Bridge.
Xiaoliu waved the dog soldier's flag and pointed towards the Xigou Bridge.
The dog soldiers rushed towards the Japanese soldiers at the bridgehead like arrows.
The Japanese sentry at the bridgehead was caught off guard and had his throat bitten by the Chinese native dog that was the first to be hit, so he did not raise the alarm.
Liu Zhengxiong, Xiaoliu and others were overjoyed and rushed to the bridgehead, cut the barbed wire and lowered the suspension bridge over the trench.
Xiao Liu waved the dog soldier's flag towards the barracks, pointing directly at the Japanese barracks on the other side of the trench.
The dog soldiers swarmed across the suspension bridge and rushed into the Japanese barracks.
There were also sentries in the Japanese barracks. When they vaguely heard dogs barking, they hurriedly turned on the searchlights.
Under the searchlight, wolfhounds rushed in and went into tent after tent.
"Bang!"
Liu Zhengxiong raised his hand and fired a shot, killing the Japanese sentry.
However, the Japanese sentry had already pressed the alarm.
Suddenly, the alarm sounded loudly, and the Japanese soldiers woke up and instinctively picked up their weapons to fight back.
In the darkness, a battle between man and dog began.
The wolfhounds bit the Japanese soldiers frantically, and the Japanese soldiers fought back desperately.
Liu Zhengxiong and others blocked the exit and fired fiercely at the Japanese soldiers.
Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire, echoing throughout Xigou.
The Japanese soldiers were caught off guard at first, but gradually came to their senses.
They found that there were not many wolfhounds and Eighth Route Army soldiers who launched night attacks.
The Japanese captain ran to the broadcasting room and shouted loudly: "Warriors of the Empire! There are only a few Eighth Route Army and dog soldiers in the night attack. Work together to eliminate them."
Liu Zhengxiong saw the wolfhounds and the Japanese soldiers perishing one after another, and more and more Japanese soldiers fighting back. He sighed and said, "Xiao Liu! Not only are all the dog soldiers being killed, but we can't escape either."
Xiao Liu pointed to the south and said with a smile, "Look! The boss is coming."
Indeed, on the road to the south, Xiang Chu’s convoy was speeding towards them.
Liu Zhengxiong shook his head and said, "No! I feel it's still not enough. There are at least 500 devils left. Let's retreat!"
