The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

Captain Yamazaki rode into the village on horseback, got off his horse in front of the heavily guarded detachment headquarters, and walked in wet all over.

The headquarter of the detachment was set up in a brick and tile yard of a landlord. Compared with the damp and cold outside, there was a fire inside the detachment headquarters, which was much warmer.

When Captain Yamazaki walked into the room, he found that the commanders of the other brigades had all arrived.

"Yamazaki-kun, sit here—"

Captain Yamazaki, who saw the rain falling off the raincoat, entered the room, and the other captains nodded one after another to greet Captain Yamazaki.

Compared with the haggard and wet Captain Yamazaki, Captain Takahashi, Captain Anton, and Captain Tanigawa are all in neat military uniforms, which is in stark contrast to the embarrassed Captain Yamazaki.

"Yamazaki-kun, have you caught up with the Chinese?"

They played ping-pong-pong all night in the front, and the infantry captains in the back were very curious. As soon as Captain Yamazaki sat down, they couldn't help asking.

Hearing the concerns of his colleagues, Captain Yamazaki, who had suffered a loss last night, also sighed heavily, and said in frustration: "The Chinese people are too cunning, and it's all my fault that I underestimated the enemy and let them run away."

Hearing that the guerrillas who attacked them ran away, the other captains looked at each other in disbelief.

The combat effectiveness of the Yamazaki Brigade is not weak, how could the guerrillas who attacked them escape?

But when they saw Captain Yamazaki's embarrassment, they all knew that what he should have said was not a lie, so it was very intriguing. Could it be that the guerrillas are really that strong?

"Don't worry, Yamazaki-kun. The Chinese people have a good saying. The monks can't escape the temple if they run away. As long as they want to keep Baoying and Huaiyin, they can't escape, and they will all be wiped out by us in the end!"

Team leader Gu Chuan saw that team leader Yamazaki was in a bad mood, so he smiled and comforted him.

Main text Chapter 140 Dismissal investigation

Takahashi, Gu Chuan, An Dong and other brigade captains, like all the devil officers in the room, were full of arrogance in their bones.

Although they saw that the Yamazaki Infantry Brigade, which was the vanguard, was fighting in a panic, they only gave a few words of comfort, but they didn't take it seriously at all, because they looked down on those poorly equipped guerrillas from the bottom of their hearts.

Some people even felt that the Yamazaki brigade was so useless that they couldn't even beat some rabble-roused guerrillas.Lost the face of their Great Japanese Imperial Army.

But after all, they are all colleagues who look up and see down, and they just slander in their hearts, but they won't really say it out.

Captain Yamazaki can also feel the contempt from his colleague's tone and eyes. He has just suffered a defeat at the moment, and his heart is like a mirror. Any explanation now is a cover-up, which is futile, so he simply closed his eyes. Repose, do not participate in the discussion.

It's not that Captain Yamazaki has fought against guerrillas before, but it's the first time he's fought against the northern Jiangsu corps, but the strength of the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps really makes him still have lingering fears.

Whether it was the blockade along the way or the deadly battle at Jieshou, plus the two raids last night, these battles were fought by their infantry brigade against the Subei Corps, all of which showed that the Subei Guerrilla Corps was not a mob.

On the contrary, it is an elite division that has experienced many battles. Although their will to fight, their weapons and equipment and military literacy are not as good as their Imperial Japanese Army, they are almost the same.

If the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps cannot be eliminated as soon as possible, and they are given more time to grow stronger, it will be difficult for Captain Yamazaki to know what will happen in the future, but their situation will become more and more passive, that is for sure.

Captain Yamazaki and the others didn't have to wait long, and there were sonorous footsteps outside the door. Everyone turned their heads and saw the detachment leader Hisashi Watanabe walking by surrounded by a group of staff officers.

Seeing the arrival of the detachment leader Hisashi Watanabe, all the devil officers in the room stood up to greet him.

Shouichi Watanabe, the leader of the devil's detachment, walked to the main seat and stood still with a gloomy face. After glancing at everyone with his cold eyes, he lowered his hands, and everyone sat down again in unison.

"Yamazaki-san, how many Chinese people were wiped out last night?"

After the detachment leader Hisashi Watanabe sat down, he first set his sights on Major Yamazaki who was sitting on the left bench.

The team leader Yamazaki hurriedly stood up and reported with shame on his face: "Your Excellency, the detachment leader, you are incompetent under your post, and let the Chinese escape."

"Um?!"

Hearing that the guerrillas escaped, Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil's detachment, raised his eyebrows immediately, and his cold eyes made the team leader Yamazaki feel heavy pressure.

The team leader Yamazaki endured the pressure and hurriedly explained: "Your Excellency, the Chinese people, this is a planned attack. They launched the attack while we were asleep. Landmines were planted on the road, an ambush was set up, and it was dark, even though my pursuing troops let them escape..."

"Why didn't your sentries and patrols give early warning? Are they all asleep?" the detachment leader Shouichi Watanabe asked coldly, "Or did you say you underestimated the enemy and didn't deploy sentries?"

"Our sentries and patrols were assassinated quietly. I can be sure that there must be an elite combat unit in the Chinese army, otherwise our sentries would not have been eliminated quietly." Captain Yamazaki said firmly.

Commander Yamazaki's explanation did not satisfy detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi, and he immediately asked, "Have you figured out the number of the Chinese troops that attacked you?"

"It's...it's too dark to see clearly, but judging from the military uniforms left over from the corpses, they should be members of the Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Corps."

Because Yang Ling and his northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps were behind enemy lines, their military uniforms were re-dyed and sewn from captured Japanese and puppet army uniforms, but they still had armbands to prove their identity.

But on the battlefield, any brothers who were killed and could not take their remains, the living brothers would tear off their armbands and take them back.

The result of this is that although many brothers from the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps were killed in the battle last night, there were also many corpses left on the battlefield.

Because the armbands were all torn off by their companions and taken away, the little devil couldn't tell which army attacked them, he could only make a rough estimate.

Captain Yamazaki's answer made the detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi extremely dissatisfied. After playing for a long time, he didn't even figure out the other party's number.

"Bagaya Road!"

Watanabe Shouichi was so angry that he slapped his hand on the table, making all the officers sitting around jump in fright.

"Hi!"

Captain Yamazaki bowed his head heavily, his waist was almost bent ninety degrees, but his heart was also full of bitterness, it was hard to tell, who called the guerrillas too powerful.

Looking at the captain Yamazaki who was bending over and bowing his head, he was silent for a while, and then the detachment leader Watanabe Toshiichi took a deep breath, calmed down the anger in his heart, and regained the composure that a commander should have.

"How much is the battle damage?!"

After a long silence, the detachment leader Toshiichi Watanabe who calmed down stared at Major Yamazaki as he spoke slowly.

Hearing the detachment leader Toshiichi Watanabe asking about the battle damage, Captain Yamazaki complained even more. After a few seconds of stunned, he hesitated to speak.

"The Chinese attacked twice, our soldiers fought bravely and wiped out more than a hundred Chinese..."

"I'm asking how much your battalion has suffered in battle?" Watching Captain Yamazaki looking around at him, the gloomy-faced detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi interrupted him coldly.

"Our troops killed 410 people, injured more than [-] people, lost six light machine guns, eight grenadiers, and countless ammunition..."

Captain Yamazaki also knew that if he stretched out his head, it would be the same if he retracted his head, so he had to tell the whole story.

While reporting, he tremblingly glanced at the detachment leader Shouichi Watanabe, whose face was getting more and more gloomy. In his heart, he hated the guerrillas who attacked them. If they hadn't attacked him, how could he have become so passive.

Hearing that the Yamazaki Infantry Brigade suffered such a large loss, which was equivalent to the loss in a medium-scale battle in the early days of the war, all the devil officers gasped in unison.

"Bagaya Road!"

The ghost Captain Yamazaki didn't finish his sentence, and the detachment leader Toshiichi Watanabe, who was holding back his anger just now, couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore, grabbed the cup on the table and slammed it at Captain Yamazaki fiercely.

The thrown cup happened to hit Captain Yamazaki in the face, and immediately the tea spilled all over Captain Yamazaki.

"Hi!"
