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

Kong Jie said angrily, "You, Li Yunlong, are bold and shameless. I, Kong Jie, cannot compare to you. The children's group of others avenged the sacrifice of our independent group's soldiers.

And no matter how good the Japs' weapons are, if we don't have bullets, they're no better than firewood sticks. What am I going to do with them?"

Li Yunlong finally understood what Kong Jie said, "Are you talking about the Children's Group? Their leader is called Wang Ye?"

"Yes! He is young and tall, and he will definitely be a handsome guy in the future!" Kong Jie is very optimistic about Wang Ye.

Li Yunlong thought about it, turned around and walked back. Kong Jie was stunned. Why aren't you making a fuss? If you have the guts, go find the children's group and ask them to go!

After Wang Ye came back, he immediately calculated the merit points for annihilating Yamamoto's special forces, and then added points for the newly recruited soldiers.

In this way, the number of children's corps soldiers reached 5000, and the rest were soldiers who could go to the battlefield immediately. In addition, Wang Ye also found more than 30 spies among the new recruits.

These spies felt very strange to see an unnumbered unit recruiting soldiers, and thought of the strange things in Pingyang during this period.

Spies from all parties joined the Children's Corps through recruitment without any prior agreement. Wang Ye laughed and said that these people were all from other forces because they could not be added.

Wang Ye called the spy battalion commander Wang Xiaokui and ordered him to arrest all the spies, execute all the Japanese spies, and release all the spies from other forces.

Let them tell their respective leaders that the Children's Corps will start the Pingyang Campaign immediately and stay in their own areas without making any noise.

Wang Ye will not be polite to anyone who causes trouble for the children's group.

Two days later, Noda and his regiment finally arrived at Pingyang County. By then, there were more than 3500 Japanese soldiers in the vicinity of Pingyang County, and the number of Inter-Japanese War soldiers was as high as 8000.

Wang Ye listened to the report of the reconnaissance battalion and made a simple estimate of the merit points in his mind. If all these people were eliminated, there would be at least 4 merit points.

As long as we capture Pingyang, the children's group's mobile artillery battalion will be there.

Wang Ye excitedly moved the headquarters forward to Chen Village, near the county seat, on the outskirts of Daqing Mountain.

"Captain, with our current weapons and equipment, the time is not right for us to attack the county town, because we don't have heavy siege weapons."

Wang Ye knew that the Type 92 infantry guns had no problem hitting the turrets, but the county walls were thicker and harder.

"Why not? Don't we have 88mm anti-aircraft guns? I have already increased the number of guns in the artillery battalion to 27. The entire artillery battalion is fully staffed.

With these 27 guns, no matter how thick the wall is, we can penetrate it. If the Japanese planes dare to come over, I will kill as many of them as they come!"

Wu Gang asked in surprise, "Why don't I know?"

"You don't know? Didn't I tell you?" Wang Ye really forgot.

"No!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, Political Commissar, don't worry, if there are any weapons or equipment for the troops in the future, I will definitely tell you the first time!"

The 88mm anti-aircraft gun is very heavy, especially because it requires a lot of shells, so the artillery battalion used military trucks to pull the guns over.

Noda, who had just finished inspecting the county's defenses, returned to the headquarters and confidently said to the Japanese officers inside,

"You have done a great job on the renovation of the county town these days. Not only have the city walls been raised and thickened, but the distribution of firepower points is also reasonable. I am very satisfied!"

The Komura Battalion under the Noda Regiment arrived at Pingyang first. These defensive tasks were basically completed under the guidance of the battalion leader and the squadron warriors.

He replied modestly, "Thank you for the compliment, Commander. The county's defense has been perfected.

But we know nothing about the enemy right now, which is very dangerous!"

Noda asked in confusion, "The area outside Pingyang County has been occupied by the enemy, and it has been a month.

Your intelligence personnel don't have a clear understanding of the enemy's situation?"

Xiaocun explained, "The enemy basically moved out in small groups like squads and platoons, and we had no way of detecting their main force.

Now we know that the enemy has strong firepower. One squad has 4 machine guns and a 60mm cannon.

Our corresponding small team is no match for them at all."

The Japs didn't know about assault rifles and thought they were also machine guns, and they all had powerful firepower anyway.

"What?" Noda shouted in surprise. He had seen all the Chinese troops, and there were troops with stronger firepower than theirs.

On the other hand, the weapons of the National Government's Teaching Corps were very powerful. With the same number of people, the two sides fought back and forth, comparable to elite troops.

Now this army, which has never seen its true face, can actually defeat the imperial warriors with the same number of people.

Although the brigade is a second-line unit and cannot be compared with the field divisions of that year, it is also not comparable to those people in northwestern Shanxi.

Could it be that the strength of this unit is as strong as the teaching corps that we encountered in Shanghai back then?

"Has there been any news from the Taiyuan intelligence department?" Noda put away his contemptuous attitude, put the children's group on an equal footing and asked.

Since the opposing troops were so powerful, he had to be careful in dealing with them. At least he had to know their numbers and weapons and equipment.

Otherwise, a mysterious enemy may cause them heavy losses.

A Japanese soldier came out from the back of the headquarters and said, "Hello, Colonel. I am Kagawa Metoyo from the Taiyuan Intelligence Department.

The only information we have at the moment is that the enemy calls themselves the Children's Corps. I think this is a fake number to confuse us."

"That's right!" Noda nodded in agreement. What the hell is this children's group? Don't think he doesn't know.

Aren’t they just the Eighth Route Army recruiting those idle kids to serve as sentinels?

If a children's corps could attack a county town, the Eighth Route Army might have attacked Taiyuan long ago. How could Commander Youzhong be so leisurely?

"Keep talking!"

"Recently, this so-called children's group has recruited more than 1700 new soldiers in Pingyang.

I have arranged for some new people to go in, and I think it won’t be long before they can pass on the message!"

What Xiangchuan didn't know was that the spies were discovered by Wang Ye as soon as they entered, and now these spies might be digging holes deep in the Daqing Mountains.

"Yoshi!" Noda praised, and then said, "Kagawa-kun, you guys need to be faster. Although General Sasaki will bring other troops to support us,

But we don’t know when the other side will launch an attack on the county town! "

"Hey!"

Noda looked at the commanders of the battalions and squadrons in the headquarters with serious expressions.

"Everyone, in the entire occupied area of ​​North China, there has never been an active attack on a county town. This time the enemy's goal is very clear.

We are under great pressure. If we accidentally lose the county, the entire Third Brigade will become the laughing stock of the empire.

Our Noda Corps may also be cancelled like the Watanabe Corps, so please work hard!"
