I really came here to fight against Japan

If any Japanese soldier accidentally comes back to life, a grenade thrown at him can blow up all their spoils.

The Japanese still had usable Type 38 rifles, but they didn't capture many.

A Type A division has 35,000 people and only about 27,000 rifles.

Their artillery and logistics troops have no use for rifles.

The Type 38 rifles of the soldiers of Kato's detachment were all left in Baotou, probably because they benefited the garrison there.

The 1st and 2nd Brigades, which were led by Division Commander Inoue to carry out the mopping-up operation, had only more than 13,000 rifles.

This is already a lot, just like a National Army army of 17,000 people.

They only had seven or eight thousand rifles, just a little more than half of what the Japanese had.

Unfortunately, in several encounters along the way, many of the Japanese rifles were destroyed.

Especially in the final encounter at Wild Wolf Valley, many of the 77th Division's rifles were destroyed by artillery shells.

If we clean up now, we can still have about 5,000 of them, and no more than 300,000 rounds of bullets.

These bullets were preserved because they were placed in the baggage pile.

The other bullets either exploded or were fed to the prairie wolves.

The fighters of the Third Guerrilla Division also put together a dozen mortars and light and heavy machine guns.

Although they look down on these things, they are useful to the guerrilla detachment in Daqingshan.

If these weapons were handed over to the Eighth Route Army, the guerrilla detachment in the Daqing Mountains could immediately be transformed into a guerrilla column of 10,000 people.

The Daqingshan Military Sub-district of the Eighth Route Army became the Daqingshan Military Region.

The battle on their side was over, and the Third Guerrilla Division headed straight for Daqing Mountain without rest.

They didn't want to rescue the Eighth Route Army, they were preparing to rescue the First Brigade.

After all, the Japanese sent a division and two puppet Mongolian cavalry divisions.

More than 20,000 troops of the First Brigade were trapped in the Daqing Mountains and could not get out.

This time, the Japanese Suiyuan Command thought that their opportunity had come because of the support of the elite troops of the Kwantung Army.

They dispatched another brigade of troops and rushed to Daqing Mountain.

Prepare to wipe out the Eighth Route Army’s base in the Daqing Mountains in one fell swoop.

By the way, the First Brigade of the Sixth Guerrilla Division of the Gansu Army was also destroyed in the Daqing Mountains.

Well, this was a mistake made by the Japanese military headquarters in Suiyuan.

They thought that the 20,000 Gansu troops in the Daqing Mountains were the entire Sixth Guerrilla Division.

If they knew, this was just someone else's trip.

There are still 30,000 main forces hiding outside, and they would never go to Daqingshan to cause trouble for the Gansu Army.

Qin Haichuan was also very excited. He had asked General Fu to help harass the Japanese troops in this area.

As long as the guerrilla division can succeed, it can wipe out one brigade and one division of the Japanese devils and then surround the two pseudo-Mongolian cavalry divisions.

The entire puppet Mongolia, Suiyuan, and Chahar regions, except for the big cities occupied by the devils.

Basically, the Chinese military, which is close to our party, has the final say.

Even if the Japanese managed to escape in time, they would not dare to send out troops to harass the Shanxi war zone.

At this point, the danger on the northern route of Shanxi's Second War Zone has been completely resolved by Qin Haichuan.

Because of the artillery regiment of the 77th Division under the Kwantung Army.

He was left in the Northeast and did not follow the main force to sweep the Daqing Mountains.

The Kwantung Army Headquarters refused to admit the fact that their 77th Division had been completely wiped out.

Even the body of Division Commander Inoue, as well as photos of his official seal and command sword, had been reported in the newspapers.

They also recruited soldiers from the Japanese islands and reorganized the 77th Division based on the artillery regiment.

In fact, there was indeed a fish that slipped through the net during the encirclement and annihilation of the 77th Division this time.

It was the Japanese soldier who drove away from the temporary camp on the grassland.

He took advantage of the fact that the encirclement was not closed and unexpectedly broke through the cavalry division's blockade and headed towards Baotou.

But just when he was about to reach Baotou, his good luck finally came to an end.

At some point, a bullet pierced his lower abdomen, and the blood from his body could not be stopped.

At this moment, the truck's fuel gauge also showed that the gasoline was running out.

His eyes had already started to become blurry, and he could only keep his feet on the accelerator, then he leaned over the steering wheel and passed out.

When the guards at the gate of Baotou city saw a car coming unsteadily, they immediately shouted "Stop" and fired warning shots.

The military truck, which had run out of fuel, finally stopped when it was about to hit the suspension bridge.

When the soldiers at the city gate opened the car door, they saw the Japanese squadron leader with his intestines spilling out, dead on the steering wheel.

A Japanese soldier guarding the gate suddenly shouted, "Sergeant, there's another person alive in the back carriage."

When the sergeant rushed to the back of the truck.

Inside the carriage, besides a foolish team leader, there was also a military truck riddled with bullet holes.

They got no other information because nothing could be asked of a stupid soldier.

The Japanese garrison in Baotou had no choice but to transfer the frightened team leader to the Kwantung Army's hospital.

Since only one person from the 77th Division that went to Daqingshan returned, it was difficult for them to deal with the situation.

Moreover, news later came back from outside the city, and rumors spread from then on.

It is said that the destruction of the 77th Division was the result of Chang Shengtian's intervention.

The guerrilla division, as the party involved, remained silent about this victory.

The Japanese army was completely confused by this and only knew that the Mongolians had been acting weird these days.

The way they looked at the Japanese troops was different; everyone was filled with pride.

Therefore, the squad leader who knew the truth about the 77th Division's defeat was sent to the rear.

But he never woke up again. A few years later, he was abandoned by the Japanese in the wilderness during their retreat and turned into nutrients for sorghum rice.

More than 500 "rebels" from the Kato Detachment of the 77th Division escaped in the afternoon of the previous day.

They also knew that their group's target was too big on the grassland, so they decided to run separately.

This strategy was indeed effective. A battalion of 300 Japanese cavalrymen were forced to split into more than ten teams to track down these "rebels".

These soldiers from the Peninsula had a miserable life. They could not find anything to eat except digging some grass roots to quench their thirst.

Besides, there were Japanese cavalry behind them, repeatedly setting up nets to catch them.

As night fell, the Japanese soldiers lit a fire to rest, but they had to continue to escape.

The sun rose again the next morning, which was usually their hope.

But now, it has become a poison that claims their lives.

They really couldn't run anymore, and many soldiers sat down on the spot.

Waiting for the Japanese soldiers behind to catch up so that they can end their lives quickly.

Sure enough, in less than an hour, the Japanese behind them caught up with them.

They ran all night, but the horses were not strong enough to run as fast as they could in an hour.

The sound of "bang bang bang" gunfire rang out again on the grassland in this area.

Groups of Peninsular "rebels" were constantly killed by the cavalry that caught up with them.

Afterwards, these Japanese soldiers were knocked off their horses by the guerrilla division cavalry who encircled them from the outside.

As fate would have it, these Japanese soldiers who were chasing us were transformed from hunters back into prey, and instantly became victims of the gun.

Song Yinquan, the brigade's quartermaster from the Peninsula, was the smartest runner.

He did not choose to run with everyone, but hid behind the team alone.
