Chapter 194 Take the initiative
The road is slippery in the snow,
The Heixiazi tribe is four to five hours away from Jingpo Lake Town, so Yin Xinjun arranged for Peng Yuan to rest there.
However, someone like Yin Xinjun, who had a snow suit and natural skills, reached the Heixiazi tribe in just two hours!
Gao Yang prepared rice, fried vegetables, and canned food for the soldiers!
In a house in the middle of the tribe,
Peng Yuan lay on the kang, rubbing his stomach, humming and saying it was so enjoyable!
Finally he had meat. He ate three cans of beef and two large bowls of rice.
Gao Yang asked with concern,
"Captain Peng, are you full? If not, there's more!"
"I'm full! I'm so full!"
A loud and long laugh sounded from the door of the house.
"Lao Peng, how many days have you been hungry?"
Peng Yuan heard the familiar voice and hurriedly got off the kang.
Yin Xinjun has come over.
The soldiers lying on the kang also stood up hurriedly.
Peng Yuan held Yin Xinjun's hand tightly, tears welling up in his excited eyes.
"Brother Yan Wang, I miss you so much!"
Yin Xinjun deliberately said,
"At that time, I invited you to follow me south, but you insisted on going west to find your military headquarters!"
Peng Yuan's face turned red.
"Oh, forget it. I've been searching for a long time but still can't find the military headquarters. Most of our troops have been killed and we're out of ammunition and food. I think I should find you to help me."
Yin Xinjun laughed and said,
"You, take the troops here to rest and have a good rest. I will provide you with ammunition!"
In the Heixiazi tribe, the Japanese and puppet regimes built several rows of brick houses, as well as offices and warehouses, so the soldiers had no problem camping here.
"By the way, I heard on the way that your people went north? Are there any actions?"
"I am now arranging three teams to take turns attacking targets within Hailin County. Teams 1 and 4 have already left. When they come back, Team 2 will also attack!"
"Then we'll go too! If we don't kill the devils this day, we'll feel uncomfortable all over!" Peng Yuan shouted, patting his chest.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Take a rest for three days. By the way, I met some comrades from the First Army of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces here. They have joined us and are now the 4th Squadron!"
Yin Xinjun then recounted how Wang Yaohui and his special forces regiment had been searching for the Second Route Army.
Peng Yuan said excitedly,
"Oh my God, the First Army has contacted the Central Government. This is great news. The commander will definitely be very happy to know this."
Yin Xinjun said,
"So, we are in the Jingbo Lake area, which makes it convenient for us to connect with the North and South Anti-Japanese United Army. Our next task is to destroy the surrounding Japanese railway lines, group tribes, strongholds and even county towns!"
Peng Yuan also nodded frequently.
"I'm familiar with the north. I just came from Hengdaohezi. Three days later, we will set out to destroy the Binsui Railway!"
"Lao Peng, I'm telling you, this is your base. We can fight wherever we want. If you need supplies, just come back and get them!
After all, it is winter now, so our range of activities is within 100 kilometers around us, and we carry 3-5 days of dry food when we go out! When spring comes, we can further expand our range! "
Mudanjiang City,
The Kwantung Army's 4th Independent Garrison Command,
Saito Yaheita hasn't smiled for many days. Recently, Yin Xinjun's crazy attacks on Ning'an County and Mudanjiang City disrupted his many deployments.
The large-scale campaign against the Jingpo Lake area originally scheduled for seven days later made him extremely worried. The four infantry battalions participating in the campaign were now seriously short of personnel.
Among them, the Third Battalion, which suffered the most serious losses, had a full strength of 1126 soldiers, but now has only 571!
Lieutenant Colonel Koizumi, the Chief of Staff, was also worried.
"General, I'm afraid that our forces are not up to the task of conquering Jingpo Lake right now. Before the campaign even begins, several battalions have already suffered more than 890 casualties! I think we need to request additional troops from the Kwantung Army Headquarters!"
The commander of the first battalion, Major Oshima Seiichi, had just arrived in Mudanjiang. His troops were ambushed by the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces on the way and lost more than 200 people. He also said worriedly,
"General, the opponents we are facing now are very different from before. Their equipment is no less than that of the Empire's soldiers. They also have infantry artillery, machine guns, and ammunition! This makes it very difficult for our troops to fight, and the number of casualties is very large!"
After hearing this, Saito Yaheita slammed the table in anger.
"Where has your blood and courage gone? Have you forgotten how we won the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War? We relied on courage and the belief that we would win!"
The phone on the table rang.
Saito Yahei picked up the phone.
An anxious voice shouted,
"Commander, Bailang Town has encountered a frenzied attack by the enemy. Now the county garrison has only more than 100 people. Request tactical guidance!"
The person who called was Lieutenant Takeo Kawakami, captain of the Japanese garrison in Hailin County. From his voice, the situation was extremely critical!
Bailang Town is located about 15 miles south of Hailin County and can be reached in two hours on foot from the county!
Saito Yahei was furious.
"Hold on! Hailin County must not be lost! Major Oshima, take your men on the train to provide support immediately!"
Hailin County is located on the Binsui Railway Line. Now the Tujia Railway has been cut off. If any problems occur on this railway again, Saito Yahei will be so scared that he will have to commit suicide by disembowelment!
White Wave Town,
In a large courtyard,
Several soldiers piled up the captured supplies, which included bullets, grenades, rifles, clothes and so on!
At the gate of the yard, five trembling pseudo-policemen were kneeling, and two soldiers holding rifles stood beside them!
Wang Hao, the leader of the first team, yelled,
"You bunch of traitors, don't you know the peeling order?"
Several people immediately shook their heads desperately, but those who felt guilty lowered their heads!
"Okay, in that case, I'll give you a chance. Whoever reveals a traitor can live!"
Wang Hao walked behind the first kneeling policeman and pulled out his pistol.
"I'll count to three! 1, 2, 3,"
Bang! A gunshot rang out, red and white liquid splashed everywhere, and the policeman fell down!
Wang Hao then walked towards the second policeman.
"twenty three..."
"The house next to the tailor shop on the east side of the town, the owner is called Geng Zhi, he is a spy, he serves the Japanese military police in Hailin County!" the police shouted wildly!
Wang Hao waved his hand, and two soldiers immediately dragged the policeman up and headed towards the east of the town!
On the west side of the town, many people gathered in the square.
Ding Shan said loudly,
"I'm Ding Shan, the adjutant of the Yanwang Army. I believe that you are all men of integrity. Are you willing to let the devils ride on your heads and bully you? If you are willing to fight the devils, follow me to the police station to get your equipment!"
A dozen young people raised their fists and shouted slogans!
"Down with the Japs!"
"We're going to fight the devils!"
