Chapter 753 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
This shows a posture of not daring to fight.
Those mortars, machine guns and tanks are just kidding you.
The company commander was a little nervous and prepared to try to persuade them.
Just as he was about to speak, the soldier lying on the sandbags shouted, "Commander, they're coming."
The battalion commander and the company commander raised their heads and looked over. This time, the woman coming over was no longer the same woman from not long ago.
Zhao Shoutian and two soldiers came to the battalion commander in a careless manner and said, "My wife asked me to ask you something. The time is up. Will you give way or not?"
After coming out of Qingfeng Village, Zhao Shoutian once again recalled the time when he was a mountain king. He looked at the battalion commander with his nose in the air and a face full of contempt.
Even though he is only a captain, he has been working in the independent regiment for a long time, and his temperament is well-controlled.
"us……"
A battalion commander was preparing to find an excuse.
But before he could finish, Zhao Shoutian nodded; "Okay, I understand."
After he said that, he turned around and ran to the other side.
A battalion commander asked his subordinates in confusion, "What did he understand?"
The company commander wasn't paying attention; he was observing the other person's actions. Just now, the man's eyes seemed to indicate that he hoped he wouldn't agree.
Also, those eyes would look at the soldiers around him from time to time.
The greed he revealed was just like when he went to the countryside to collect grain.
His intuition told him that this group of people was really possible.
Boom boom... boom boom boom...
Before he could figure it out, the other party took action.
"Quick, report to the leader immediately, they...they really took action."
Jinsui Army Corps Headquarters.
Captain Li looked quietly at the clock hanging on the wall.
Half an hour had passed. He checked the phone next to him and, finding no sound, breathed a sigh of relief. "I told you, they won't do anything, and they don't dare to do anything."
"Let me ask about the situation." The chief of staff walked to the phone and dialed the number of the frontier checkpoint with uncertainty.
The call went through, but no one answered.
Captain Li, sitting in his chair, felt a pang of fear in his heart. "What's going on?"
"The call is unavailable." The Chief of Staff looked at Captain Li with a pale face. "They are not really going to launch an attack, are they?"
"Impossible, they absolutely wouldn't dare to do that." Commander Li said in an uncertain tone, asking the chief of staff to prepare to call the Second Battalion to report the situation.
Before he could grab the phone, it rang.
He immediately grabbed it and said, "Headquarters, what's going on over there?"
"Commander, I'm from the Second Battalion. The Central Army has launched an attack on us. We've been surrounded. The First Battalion is finished. What should we do now?"
The first-line checkpoint is under the responsibility of the first battalion. In order to facilitate transportation when the time comes, it is not far from the first battalion’s base.
To ensure safety, he waited ten minutes before asking about the situation.
But I heard something.
The first battalion was finished, and the second battalion was surrounded by the enemy. The enemy's combat effectiveness was so strong.
"Report immediately to the war zone headquarters that the Central Army has launched an attack on our unit."
Boom boom...
With tanks leading the way and armored vehicles following behind, the independent regiment advanced at a speed that was like entering an empty land.
The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was able to hold out at first, but as mortars and anti-aircraft machine guns swept across, those who were still alive immediately raised white flags and shouted, "Stop fighting! We are all on the same side. Brothers on the other side, stop fighting!"
"That's their second battalion, right?" Xiao Ya asked, standing halfway up the mountain and looking at the waving white flag.
"Yes." Fang Shengli took a drag from his cigarette. "It's their Second Battalion."
"Leave one company behind from the First Battalion to seize their weapons. Equip the Fourth Battalion with tanks and quickly advance towards the regimental headquarters where the Third Battalion is located to force them to surrender."
Fang Shengli lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, "The road has been opened. Their Third Battalion is not on our route of advance. Why do we still have to fight our way through?"
"The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army believed they had blocked a portion of the Japanese army and had practically disregarded the Central Army and some other units. The commander of the Second War Zone, as the common people say, was living on two legs, playing both sides, dancing on both legs, and refusing to offend either side."
To put it nicely, such a person is a man who can play both sides, but to put it bluntly, he is a fence-sitter. Once the Japanese army gains a major advantage in Shanxi, he may turn against the Japanese on the spot and let the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army deal with the Central Army and other forces.
"Killing the chicken to scare the monkey, right?" Shen Xin asked from the side.
Xiao Ya lowered her hands to her lower abdomen. "The Shancheng people have been wanting to crack him down for a long time, but he won't come out for any military meetings outside of Shanxi. He's worried that if he does, he won't be able to return."
"Well, I guess so. Since Commander Bai has sent such an order, let's take this opportunity to teach his Shanxi-Suiyuan Army a lesson. Don't think that just because he has 300,000 troops, he can do whatever he wants. We can wipe out one of his regiments in half an hour, and let him know that his hundreds of thousands of Shanxi-Suiyuan troops are just a number in the eyes of the Central Army."
Sano Tadayoshi understood Xiao Ya's meaning and chuckled. "We won't attack you because we share the same ancestor and are three brothers. But if a real fight breaks out, with the military equipment and aviation power that Yamashiro currently possesses, defeating them would be a piece of cake."
Captain Li never dreamed that his regiment and an artillery company could be completely wiped out by the enemy in less than half an hour.
He was not a prisoner, but he was also a prisoner. He looked at the soldiers being escorted away, and then looked at the officers of the independent regiment who were coming not far away.
Captain Li stood in the distance, waiting for the other party to come over. He found Fang Shengli, who currently had the highest military rank here.
"You're attacking friendly forces. Aren't you afraid of being court-martialed? Do you think you can afford to destroy the unity of the War of Resistance? I'm reporting this to the Second War Zone Commander's Headquarters."
Fang Shengli chuckled and glanced at Captain Li; "That's a good hat."
"What do you mean?" Captain Li frowned. He did not accuse them because these people attacked first. Attacking means attacking friendly forces.
Fang Shengli knew that he was not good at arguing, so he took a step back and let Xiao Ya stand in front.
Captain Li looked at Xiao Ya and snorted coldly, "Why, am I not telling the truth?"
Xiao Ya looked at him for a moment and then hummed. "That's the truth, but I think what will happen to us is not your concern. What you should be worrying about now is writing a suicide note quickly so that your concubines have a way out."
Captain Li was so shocked that his mouth dropped open for a moment before he laughed. "That's ridiculous! You were the ones who started the fight first, and now you're saying I should take the blame. Don't you think that's ridiculous?"
