Chapter 148 Japanese Army Commander Matsui Taro
Tan Tai Ming Yue said stubbornly:
“Most of our Brotherhood members have never received military training, I admit that!
But I have about 100 people who have been trained. Although they are not regular military training, they are all famous killers in the underworld. Each of them has extraordinary kung fu. Please let me lead them to fight this battle with you!"
Tan Tai Leng Yue also jumped up and wanted to go with them: "If my sister goes, I will go too. Anyway, don't think of leaving me behind!"
Yao Xinghua always felt a little embarrassed when he saw that Gu Wenxuan only took his troops and the brothers to fight.
After all, it was Gu Wenxuan who gave the Sichuan Army food, guns, ammunition and so much money.
Sending hundreds of people into the first battle is unacceptable no matter how you look at it.
So he said to Gu Wenxuan: "Brother, how about this, we send a battalion to assist you in the battle!"
Gu Wenxuan knew what Yao Xinghua was thinking and that he was afraid of offending him.
Is Gu Wenxuan such a petty person? After all, we brothers have traveled through time from the future!
What could the 1-plus Japanese puppet troops do? If I wasn't afraid of being suspected, I could beat them all by myself.
Besides, he also has a legion of soul warriors!
So he patted Yao Xinghua on the shoulder:
"Don't worry, Lao Yao. Just protect Heping Town. We can't send out too many people. If they attack Heping Town from multiple directions, we can't just sit there and wait for them to come and attack.
We don't have Zhuge Liang's ability, you just need to carefully guard the four gates of Heping Town!"
Rodpey walked up and said:
"That's right, my brother will definitely have no problem fighting. Just look at how he beat the enemy's artillery tower all by himself before. Now he has hundreds of brothers. Even if he can't defeat the enemy, he should have no problem protecting himself, right? Brother!"
Gu Wenxuan admired Luo Depei's character very much: "Brother, you only know how to flatter me and make me work hard for you!"
Rodpei said proudly: "That depends on who it is! The person who makes me flatter him, I'm not bragging, there are not many people in this world who are worthy of my flattery!"
Everyone laughed together, and the slight rift that existed before suddenly disappeared.
So Gu Wenxuan led 800 of Zhao Yulong's men, plus Tan Tai Mingyue's 900 martial arts masters, a total of more than people, and quietly left Heping Town.
Half an hour later, they saw the Japanese army and the Imperial Army troops setting up camp in a relatively flat area south of Heping Town.
Gu Wenxuan stopped advancing 2 kilometers away from the Japanese position.
In this damn winter in the north, especially on the plains, there is no shelter at all.
Everyone can see each other from a distance, so it is not easy to launch a surprise attack.
This kind of place is most suitable for large-scale military operations.
Gu Wenxuan looked around the fields and saw only a few wheat seedlings less than a few inches tall, which was absolutely impossible to hide a person.
He made everyone crawl on the ground.
He suddenly thought that it would be great if the armed work team had their own tunnel.
Unfortunately, when he arrived in Henan, he was not familiar with the local area and didn't know whether there were any people from the Red Party's armed work team here.
However, there are tunnel warfare in these areas of Hebei. Are there no tunnel warfare in Henan?
At this time, Zhao Yulong, who was standing next to him, crawled over and said to him, "Boss, how about I take a few dozen smart people to investigate!"
Gu Wenxuan thought for a moment and said to Zhang Yulong, "Take your men to find some dry firewood nearby and pile it up here. Then we can set fire to the entire camp!"
Zhang Yulong was puzzled: "We are still 2 kilometers away from the enemy. How much dry firewood will it take to burn them?"
Gu Wenxuan waved his hand: "Just go ahead, there's no need to talk so much nonsense!"
Zhang Yulong didn't say anything. He turned around and called dozens of his brothers to go with him to the nearby villagers' homes to find dry firewood.
Twenty or thirty minutes later, Zhang Yulong and his hundred men and some villagers came to them carrying a lot of dry firewood.
Gu Wenxuan also asked the villagers to sell all the peppers in their homes to them.
Gu Wenxuan put all the peppers on the firewood.
Then he ordered his men to tie together all the grenades and mines on their bodies and bury them next to the firewood. Of course, they should be dozens of meters away from the firewood, otherwise if one of them exploded, they would be blown to the sky before they even left.
Zhang Yulong finally understood that the boss was preparing a minefield for the enemy.
I thought to myself, the enemy is so far away, will they come to this minefield in the middle of the night?
After everything was ready, Gu Wenxuan said to Zhao Yulong and Tan Tai Mingyue:
"I will go to the enemy's position to harass them and make them chase me. While they are chasing me, you can light this fire to ignite the firewood. These peppers will definitely be very choking."
"These peppers are so choking when they burn, will they still chase us?" asked Tan Tai Ming Yue.
"People have a rebellious mentality. The more we use the pepper to ignite it, the more it will choke people. They think we are trying to stop them from chasing us, so they will definitely chase us in this thick smoke.
Once they pass through this thick smoke, they will see our minefield, which will kill them directly. Do you think my idea is a good one?"
No one said anything after hearing this. It was estimated that no one had enough confidence that his minefield would be successful!
Gu Wenxuan asked these people to bury the minefield, and he ran towards the Japanese camp ahead with his dog.
The sisters Tan Tai and Ming Yue really wanted to go with him.
But Gu Wenxuan didn't allow him to follow him, because Gu Wenxuan still had some secrets that he couldn't let many people know.
Gu Wenxuan ran two or three hundred meters with his black dog, and naturally hid his body in the faint mist, which was generated by his own spiritual energy.
Of course, the hundreds of soldiers behind him had no idea that the mist was generated by his own spiritual energy, and they thought it was due to the weather.
Gradually, Zhao Yulong and his men could no longer see Gu Wenxuan and his black dog.
Gu Wenxuan gradually approached the Japanese camp.
In fact, the Japanese army was not far away from Heping Town at this time, but there was a reason why they did not immediately besiege Heping Town, because the Japanese army was not good at night fighting.
They also said that they still don’t understand the situation of the Sichuan Army in Heping Town.
Because they had been stuck in that lawless area for a long time, the White Party did not counterattack, and they did not advance either.
If the Japanese army continued to advance, there would be a flooded Yellow River area in front of them, with disaster victims and starving people everywhere.
If the Japanese army occupies this area, it will have no strategic significance for the time being.
And how would he deal with the residents and disaster victims in these areas? No matter how cruel they were, they couldn't kill all of them.
The White Party government in the mountain city did not want this area either, but it was difficult to abandon it obviously. If the Japanese army did not attack them, they would naturally abandon this land. They would not be able to justify themselves internationally and would not be able to explain to the people at home.
As a result, a stalemate arose in that area for a short time.
Suddenly, the Sichuan Army took over the place, which made the Japanese army somewhat confused.
Moreover, according to intelligence reports, this Sichuan Army Independent Regiment was defeated in Shanxi and fled to Henan. This made it even more difficult for them to understand why these Sichuan Army troops suddenly became powerful and seized their Heping Town.
The North China Expeditionary Army was determined to retake Heping Town, but they were not very enthusiastic and were relatively stalling for time.
It was the Matsui Regiment that came to besiege Heping Town this time.
The commander of the regiment was Taro Matsui, a professional soldier who rose from an ordinary soldier to colonel. He had participated in the Russo-Japanese War and had extensive combat experience.
Originally, many of his men wanted to attack Heping Town today.
Being able to set up camp in the town would at least make life much more convenient, but Taro Matsui did not accept the opinions of his subordinates. He stopped 10 kilometers away from Heping Town and prepared to attack Heping Town the next day.
Because he knew that his troops were not good at night battles, and that this place was full of intertwined forces. He could not attack rashly, he had to see the situation clearly.
As for whether the town of Heping will be captured earlier or later, it won't be a big problem.
He even stopped maneuvering early this afternoon. He wanted to see what actions the Sichuan Army in Heping Town would take!
