Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

However, Cao Geng did not intend to explain too much.

"Don't worry about the origins of these little Japanese for now! Pack up all the equipment seized from the special base and bring it back to the camp! Also, I haven't asked you how many casualties our Third Battalion suffered in this battle?"

Wang Huaibao replied frustratedly: "Battalion Commander, this time we outnumbered the enemy and caught them by surprise. I didn't expect that in this battle, our Third Battalion actually lost 17 soldiers..."

The Third Battalion dispatched more than a thousand people, while the Japanese only had about two hundred.

Even so, they attacked the enemy by surprise and still lost seventeen soldiers.

This was simply unbelievable for Wang Huaibao.

This battle was fought so badly!

Actually,

What Wang Huaibao didn't know was that

In the later stages of the battle, the Japanese in the special training camp had already reacted.

After they realized what was happening, they launched a frantic counterattack against Cao Geng's Third Battalion soldiers...

Although Cao Geng and his men had the advantage in numbers,

And in terms of equipment, they completely suppressed the enemy before the Japanese could react.

But these little devils were special forces carefully selected by Yamamoto Ikki.

The combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

Cao Geng seemed to have expected this and nodded slightly.

"The loss of seventeen people is still acceptable! You know, we killed more than two hundred Japanese in this battle!"

"Weren't you curious about the origins of these little devils before? I can tell you that these little devils are special forces just like the Qianlong Battalion of our Third Battalion!"

The main force lost only 17 people, but killed more than 200 special forces.

In Cao Geng's view, this was already a great victory.

What's more, he also recruited more than 300 soldiers including Wei Heshang, and the weapons and equipment of the Qianlong Battalion were also secured.

He suffered no loss at all in this attack on Yamamoto Ikki's special base.

It's just that Yamamoto Ikki himself is not at home.

This made Cao Geng feel a little regretful.

The special forces team originally wanted to take down Yamamoto Ikki in one fell swoop.

Now it seems that we can only take action another day.

Wang Huaibao’s eyes widened immediately.

"Captain, do you mean that these little devils are actually special forces? Could it be that the weapons and equipment we just seized are the equipment used by special forces?"

He couldn't believe it.

When he came here with Cao Geng before, he knew that these Japs had extraordinary origins, but he didn't expect that they were Japan's special forces!

But on second thought, the battalion commander said he wanted to replace the equipment for the brothers of the Qianlong Battalion. Perhaps only the equipment of the Japanese special forces is worthy of the Qianlong Battalion?

Moreover, after hearing that the Japanese soldiers in these bases were all special forces, Wang Huaibao completely recovered from his loss.

Because he had seen with his own eyes how powerful the individual soldiers of the Qianlong Brigade were.

The Japanese soldiers in front of them not only have an average strength that reaches the level of the special forces of the Qianlong Battalion, but also have more than 200 people in number.

If such a team cannot cause any damage to the large force of their Third Battalion, then they do not deserve to be called special forces.

Moreover, even when facing two hundred special forces, the soldiers of their third battalion only lost seventeen people.

Wang Huaibao felt that such a record was enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life.

Only now did Wang Huaibao understand why the battalion commander wanted them to quickly resolve the battle and defeat the Japanese.

Because if these little Japanese devils were allowed to wear special equipment that he had never heard of, he was afraid that the soldiers of their third battalion would suffer greater casualties.

At the same time, he was also more curious about how much combat effectiveness the special forces of the Qianlong Brigade could demonstrate after putting on these special equipment.

"With these equipment, I believe the combat effectiveness of our brothers in the Qianlong Battalion of the Third Battalion will be rapidly improved! Then, you will be able to see how much potential they can unleash on the battlefield!" Cao Geng said with a smile...

"Battalion Commander, to be honest, I'm particularly looking forward to the combat effectiveness of the Qianlong Battalion." Wang Huaibao took a deep breath, eagerly hoping that the soldiers of the Qianlong Battalion could quickly put on their new equipment to fight the Japanese so that he could see it for himself.

"It will be soon." Cao Geng is also looking forward to that day.

...

After Cao Geng's third battalion soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, they quickly returned to the camp. What Cao Geng didn't know was that after he wiped out Yamamoto Ikki's special forces, Yamamoto Ikki led his elite troops to meet Kong Jie's independent regiment in Yangcun and started a fierce battle.

In this battle, the casualty ratio between Yamamoto Ikki's special forces and the independent regiment was 0:200! In other words, Yamamoto Ikki's special forces suffered no casualties in the battle, while Kong Jie's independent regiment lost elite Eighth Route Army soldiers.

Of course, Yamamoto Ikki's original target was the Eighth Route Army headquarters in Xiawan. He accidentally encountered Kong Jie's independent regiment in Yangcun, and seeing that his plan was ruined, he had to retreat with his special forces. However, on the way back, they happened to run into the Qianlong Battalion that had penetrated deep into the enemy-occupied area.

Since the members of the Qianlong Brigade inherited Cao Geng's more advanced special operations skills, even though their equipment was not as good as Yamamoto Ikki's special forces team, the special forces team did not gain any advantage in this battle.

According to Cao Geng's last order to the Qianlong Brigade, they were to destroy the enemy's stronghold. Therefore, after this encounter, the members of the Qianlong Brigade acted quickly and evacuated immediately after the sneak attack.

They didn't take Yamamoto Ikki's special forces seriously at all. After the battle, the Qianlong Brigade suffered no casualties, while thirteen members of Yamamoto Ikki's special forces were killed.

Yamamoto Ikki wanted to pursue the Qianlong Battalion, but the members of the Qianlong Battalion were not interested in fighting. They remembered the teachings of Battalion Commander Cao Geng that special forces should focus on the goal and should not give up destroying the enemy's stronghold just because of an encounter.

Therefore, Yamamoto Ikki could only watch the Qianlong Brigade disappear into the woods, just like their encounter with the Independent Regiment in the back mountain of Yangcun...

But this time, it was no longer the Chinese troops who suffered the loss, but Yamamoto Ikki's special forces team.

"I swear, I must find this unit. They dared to hurt my special forces. Once I find them, I will make them pay with blood!" Yamamoto Ikki was furious.

Half an hour ago, he beat Kong Jie so hard that he couldn't recognize his mother. In just half an hour, he tasted Kong Jie's taste. Originally, because the special forces team failed to successfully attack the Eighth Route Army headquarters in Xiawan, he was already in a bad mood...

Now, when they walk, they may encounter a special forces team whose camouflage skills and combat effectiveness surpass theirs at any time.

It would be strange if Yamamoto Kazuki could keep a good mood.
