The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 163 The Japs are attacking!

After saying these words, Jiang Cheng pressed the receiver hard on the phone.

Turning back to check the bullet in the Browning, Cai Yuanming raised his eyes and asked him, "Did Master Shuai shoot?"

"Oh no, it's just a dead old dog."

Jiang Cheng responded casually, and the troops began to assemble and set off.

Nearly thirty scouts have been sent out, but none of them have returned yet.

As night fell, the entire Daping Village fell into a pre-war silence.

Especially after those Japanese businessmen who took to the streets to cause trouble were arrested, there was not a single person to be seen, whether in the usually bustling commercial streets or on the country dirt roads in farmers' courtyards.

This prosperous town seemed to have come to a halt, but the tense atmosphere continued to accelerate the soldiers' heartbeats.

nobody.

The fields outside the city were bare, and there was no sound except the howling of the cold wind.

"The Japanese, they won't stop coming, will they?"

Ye Hai's voice was full of doubt, "Master Jiang, do you think they will be scared?"

afraid?
The provocations came to my door and excuses were found. Maybe they were afraid of a few words from me?
Shaking his head silently, Jiang Cheng held up the telescope and continued to observe.

Everywhere within the focus was pitch black, and he turned to look at the two newly built bunkers and fortifications.

There is no sign.

"Master Jiang, Master Jiang!"

At this moment, Cai Yuanzong's adjutant Luo Zhengyang came running over breathlessly, "Captain Liu called and said that Captain Ding from Xiyingchang has set off with his troops."

"He said he received an order from his superiors to suppress a group of bandits."

"But Captain Liu said that judging from the direction they are heading, they don't look like they are going to suppress bandits, but rather they are heading towards us."

what?
Jiang Cheng was secretly shocked.

This Captain Ding is Lao Feng’s man!

Feng Delin's 28th Division remained stationed around Fengtian, with a total of four camps. The largest one was the West Camp located on the northwest side of Fengtian.

Everyone knew what it meant that Liu Runchuan's unit, which belonged to Sun Liechen, was suppressed by the Marshal.

The Japanese haven't arrived yet, but the thieves in the house are like a cat smelling blood and take advantage of the opportunity to sneak in.

"Will you do it?"

Cai Yuanming looked nervous.

It's hard enough to deal with just the Japanese, and if they add this guy named Ding... they're going to be in big trouble.

"Even if he had the guts, he wouldn't dare to make the first move..."

Jiang Cheng shook his head and smiled silently.

After all, it was Feng Laosan, the Marshal's guide and the one who dominated western Liaoning.

No matter how stupid he was, he should have understood that Liu Runchuan was stationed in Xiyingchang as a spy sent by the Marshal.

If he dared to take action against Dapingzhuang at this time, his good days would be over.

Jiang Feilan and the Cai family are undoubtedly a sore in his heart, but for the sake of getting rid of the sore, is it worth it for him, Feng Laosan, who is currently the military supervisor of Feng Province?

"Come here and wait for a bargain."

Jiang Cheng sneered.

If Miura defeated them, they would probably take advantage of the situation and occupy Ohira-sho under the pretext of striking back at the Japanese;

And if Miura fails to capture the city after a long siege, it will also consume their energy, and Ding can take advantage of the situation and snatch the territory from them!
The beads on the abacus made a really loud sound, and he could hear it clearly from here.

Almost at the same time, a scout team turned back.

"Master Jiang, they are here! All the Japanese from Xinshi Village have come out, there are probably two or three hundred of them!"

Two or three hundred.

Such a big event, is it just for them?
"You two, go and inform the regiment commander, and ask him to call Commander Liu in Xiyingchang and tell him that the Japanese are approaching." Jiang Cheng gave the order immediately.

This is no joke. According to the Japanese army's organization, this number is equivalent to a squadron.

Common configurations include rifles, light machine guns and grenade launchers, and even one or two heavy-armored teams carrying heavy machine guns.

It may not sound like a large number, but during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the combat and fire coverage capabilities of a Japanese squadron were enough to overwhelm two or three infantry companies.

Besides, this was 1916, and the previous Daping Village couldn't even deal with a group of Mongolian horse bandits, let alone the well-equipped and well-trained Kwantung Army.

It was undoubtedly a tough battle.

However, as long as they can hold the Japanese back, they will win.

Without Liu Runchuan, there is still Sun Liechen, and behind him there is the powerful Marshal Zhang!

"Move the flying mines to another location, set them up outside the city walls... and wait until the Japanese get close enough before firing them."

Jiang Cheng patted Cai Yuanming on the shoulder and said, "Second brother, you go there yourself. You were good at that stuff when you fought in the inner city before."

"understood."

Turning around and running, Cai Yuanming growled orders.

As soon as the gasoline barrel was moved, the trap buried outside the city exploded.

Just after Okawa Masao left, Jiang Cheng took out a few wooden-handled grenades and demonstrated:
People were hung upside down in a shallow pit, and the fuse was lengthened to form a tripwire. About two to three hundred of them were buried in the processing area outside Dapingzhuang.

As soon as someone touched it, this thing exploded.

The ability to hurt people is limited, but causing damage is enough to serve as a reminder.

"Brothers are here, get ready."

The wind suddenly blew in the second half of the night, and Jiang Cheng growled around him.

As agreed, the lanterns on the city walls were extinguished one after another, and every rifle filled with hatred was aimed at the wilderness.

"Pfft..."

Accompanied by a hair-raising bang, countless shells drew arcs in the air!

"Damn it, get down!"

As soon as Jiang Cheng shouted this, the shells fell and exploded one after another.

Some landed on the gate tower, while others flew over the city wall and landed in people's houses. There were loud bangs and flames everywhere.

One of them was very close to Jiang Cheng's fortifications, and flames and air waves suddenly burst out around them, almost knocking both him and Ye Hai over.

A large amount of boiling black soil poured down, and Jiang Cheng held down the cursing Ye Hai and hid him.

When this kid exploded, he was only thinking about protecting himself and didn't even think about hiding.

"You're going to die!"

The firelight faded, and Jiang Cheng slapped him on the back of the head in annoyance.

"Ready to fight!"

Jiang Cheng shouted angrily, "The bastard is here to steal our things. Beat him up!"

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder and soil that flew everywhere. Some people were injured and some fell down, but more people gritted their teeth and pulled the bolts of their guns, ready to go.

The bunkers outside the city suddenly started firing indiscriminately. The light machine guns that had just been brought back were used for the first time. No one expected that they would be used to entertain the Japanese devils.

The first round of charge was suppressed smoothly. After all, it was a defensive battle: the two bunkers and multiple machine guns could form a dense firepower network, and in the blink of an eye, they were beaten so hard that they dared not show their heads.

There was no intention of giving these invaders a break, and the "Flying Thunder Squadron" led by Cai Yuanming began to roar!
Regardless of whether the attack is accurate or not, there is no such thing as accuracy in a saturation attack.

Just now, the Japanese stepped on the mines they had laid in advance outside the city, and Cai Yuanming was very clear about the Japanese's location.

After a series of explosions, the other side was silenced.

There was only fire on the entire Japanese position, and it seemed that no one could be seen.

No way... is it so bad?
