Bright Sword: An eight-year-old boy led a group to fight the Japanese invaders

Watanabe, who had just mustered up a little courage to live and die with his men, collapsed to the ground as he looked at Kato Ying, who was dying beside him with blood all over his head.

He buried his head tightly in the ground, fearing that the sniper on the opposite side would aim at him.

Unfortunately, his guards didn't think so. "Sir, the enemy is too strong. We must break out immediately, otherwise we will be surrounded by them!"

Before Watanabe could say anything, he was pulled up by the guards and ran up the hillside on the left.

Wang Su saw Watanabe Masaru's shoulder badge in the light of day, "Ahaha, there's a big fish here!"

Watanabe was running up the hill with his short legs. He didn't know what was on the other side of the hill.

But he knew that if he stopped at this place, he would be dead. As more and more guards around him fell, he was getting closer and closer to the hillside.

Just as he was about to roll over the hillside ridge, a bullet hit him accurately in the back.

Watanabe Masaru's eyes turned black. In the last moments of his life, I wonder if he regretted coming to China?

The 1st Battalion, the 2nd Battalion and the 3rd Battalion successfully joined forces, and the Japanese soldiers who were sandwiched between them all lay on the ground and died.

By this time, it was already 6:2 in the evening. From 4: p.m. when the Japanese launched their tentative attack to now, a total of and a half hours had passed.

Wang Ye looked at his watch and thought the time was okay. After all, they were fighting on the defensive.

If we take the initiative to attack, it may be faster, but the casualties will be much greater.

It was not a loss this time, especially with the capture of the regiment flag. Wang Ye could pay off all his debts and even have some left over. He was very satisfied.

Ever since the children's group blew up the enemy's plane, the scouts of the Eighth Route Army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, and the National Government never blinked an eye.

They thought there was something wrong with their eyes. The Japanese army was dispatched, with tanks and aircraft as support, and the entire army was wiped out in just over 4 hours.

And it seems that their own casualties are very small. What kind of powerful army is this? Or are these all fake devils? Why are they fighting differently from them?

It was not until the children's group cleaned up the battlefield and walked back with the spoils that the scouts slowly realized that the battle was over.

At noon the next day, the scouts finally returned from Xiaolin Village, a hundred miles away from Daqing Mountain. Despite his tired body, the reconnaissance squad leader went directly to the reconnaissance company commander to report.

The battalion commander felt that his men were telling him stories, but the squad leader refused to accept the news and went with his scout to find the brigade commander.

"Report, the reconnaissance battalion is back!"

The brigade commander had been keeping an eye on the situation in Daqing Mountain for the past two days. When he heard that the scouts had returned, he immediately called them in. The deputy brigade commander, the brigade chief of staff, and the political commissar were all in the room.

The brigade commander looked at the dusty scout and said in a reproachful tone, "Meng Wei, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you should pay more attention to your soldiers. They just came back, and even if they don't rest, they should at least have a hot meal before reporting, right?"

Meng Wei, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, said with a smile, "Commander, I didn't come here because I wanted to. It's because there's something wrong with what they said, so they dragged me here to ask you for justice!"

"Judge? Judge what?" the brigade commander was curious.

Meng Wei pulled the reconnaissance squad leader and said, "Repeat what you just said to the brigade commander and the other leaders!"

Seeing that the reconnaissance squad leader had not spoken for a long time, the brigade commander asked directly, "You have only been gone for four days, right? It takes a lot of time to travel such a long distance. Did the Japanese have already finished fighting when you got there?"

A Japanese regiment, even if it is not a fully staffed regiment, is still a regiment. The brigade commander believes that no brigade is completely invincible to the Japanese.

Although it is not clear what kind of troops the Daqingshan troops are from, it is definitely not a brigade. Not many people dare to say they can stop the Japanese regiment.

The reconnaissance squad leader then raised his head and said, "Reporting to the brigade commander, reporting to all the leaders, the Watanabe regiment was completely wiped out at Yerenling outside Daqing Mountain at 6:30 last night.

More than 2600 people, including the commander of the wing, Watanabe Masaru, were killed, and even the four bombers coming from Taiyuan were shot down! "

The deputy brigade commander stood up from the bench in a flash. He didn't care that the bench fell to the ground because he moved so quickly.

"From what you just said, it sounded like you were saying that the Japanese regiment was completely wiped out and Watanabe Masaru was dead, right?"

"Yes, deputy brigade commander!" The reconnaissance squad leader nodded affirmatively.

The deputy brigade commander heard the reconnaissance squad leader's answer and turned to look at his partner.

The leaders of the brigade looked at each other in bewilderment, all thinking they were listening to a foreign language. The reconnaissance battalion commander Meng Wei said, "Commanders, I just said this is impossible, and now he is using it to fool you!"

The brigade commander said thoughtfully, "Captain Meng, don't be so absolute, and you can't doubt your comrades without basis. Let's listen to the specific situation!"

The reconnaissance squad leader recounted everything he had seen, and even a man as experienced as the brigade commander was horrified.

"You mean to say that this unit has a lot of firepower, and you have developed more than 20 heavy machine guns?"

"That's right. When they were charging, I counted and there was only one battalion at that position. But when we were fighting the Japanese squadron, there were very few people, maybe only one platoon!"

"You mean a platoon is equipped with three heavy machine guns? How is that possible? The Chinese army does not have such a luxurious unit!" The deputy brigade commander flatly denied it.

The brigade commander continued to ask without comment, "You just said that they have anti-aircraft weapons. The four Japanese fighter planes were just about to dive when they were blown up by the crossfire?"

"Yes, judging from the firing point, there should be four anti-aircraft guns, and these four guns can fire horizontally. The Japanese tanks were destroyed by these four guns!"

The reconnaissance squad leader said affirmatively.

"Strange, do we in China have a gun that can shoot down both airplanes and tanks?" the political commissar asked with some confusion.

"Yes!" the brigade commander said with certainty, "Back then, the German-equipped divisions under the National Government had anti-aircraft guns like this, but they were very large and tall, not suitable for concealment, and would be discovered by the enemy from a distance!"

The political commissar was really curious now. "This means that the government doesn't even have such weapons. So where did this unit get them from?"

The deputy brigade commander couldn't help but be curious. "What I want to know most now is, what kind of troops are this?"

"Needless to say, it must be the National Government. Weapons and equipment cost money. Who in the whole of China is richer than the National Government?" said the chief of staff somewhat disappointed.

"That's not necessarily true!" The brigade commander said mysteriously, "A few days ago, I asked the intelligence chief in Ping'an to deliver the news that the Japanese might launch an air raid on Daqing Mountain."
