Chapter 28 Transfer to Yangcun
"Baka!"
Fujita Ichiro had no choice but to withdraw his troops!
General Shinotsuka sent a telegram ordering an immediate evacuation and warning against advancing any further.
This reminded Fujita Ichiro of the divisional meeting last month, where General Shinotsuka decided to appoint Yamamoto Ichiki to send special operations forces deep into the Eighth Route Army's base area to destroy the Eighth Route Army's headquarters. Now the opportunity has arrived.
Originally, the First Regiment's mission was to force more of the Eighth Route Army's main forces to come out and engage in a large-scale melee! Then, Yamamoto Ichiki was ordered to take the opportunity to approach the Eighth Route Army's headquarters, but the Eighth Route Army chose to retreat.
If they were to pursue relentlessly, it would clearly be contrary to the strategic plan. It would inevitably alert the Eighth Route Army headquarters, and the headquarters would certainly have to relocate.
At the front line, the infantry of the First Regiment began to retreat, much to the surprise of the soldiers of the three regiments of the Eighth Route Army.
Based on past combat experience, once the Japanese army gained an absolute advantage in battles with the Eighth Route Army, it was impossible for them to retreat.
But this time, it was quite unexpected!
Chen Geng, the commander of the 386th Brigade, was also confused about the Japanese tactics. The Japanese had already withdrawn their troops, and it was impossible for his troops to catch up.
Thus, the 386th Brigade successfully withdrew from Liuchen Village and returned to its safe base.
In this battle, Wang Yousheng earned more than 40,000 points!
Wang Yousheng was surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood.
When we fought the Sakata Regiment last time, there were no major tactical changes. All three regiments charged in headfirst, and the combat rewards were very few.
This time, due to the defensive retreat, under the command of Brigade Commander Chen Geng, the three regiments adopted flexible and varied retreat tactics, which triggered the special reward of the "Golden Finger" and resulted in so many points being earned.
After the battle, Wang Yousheng used up all his points without hesitation and exchanged them for eight self-healing capsules. He then secretly placed them in the medicine while the medics weren't looking.
He didn't want to make a big fuss; he just wanted to secretly make a small contribution to the Eighth Route Army.
Eight self-healing capsules are enough to improve the injuries of eighty soldiers.
However, compared to large-scale warfare, his amount of medicine was still insignificant.
After all, this retreat resulted in over a thousand casualties...
After breaking free from the Japanese encirclement, the three regiments, following the brigade commander's orders, marched rapidly toward their new base areas.
The previous base was definitely unusable, as it was necessary to prevent a second Japanese raid.
Wang Yousheng naturally followed Li Yunlong to the Independent Regiment. This was because Kong Jie had received orders from headquarters to transfer him to Yangcun!
Why did headquarters transfer the Independent Regiment to Yangcun?
It's very simple. Headquarters was furious when they learned that Kong Jie had disobeyed orders on the battlefield. However, they also learned that Kong Jie had a reinforced battalion of firepower under his command. With their overwhelming combat advantage, they annihilated the entire Japanese cavalry battalion. This was an unprecedented victory!
That's why the Independent Regiment was transferred to Yangcun.
Yangcun is only a few kilometers away from the headquarters, Daxia Bay. Li Yunlong's trip to Yangcun can also be considered a return to the headquarters.
Yangcun.
Kong Jie had ordered three battalions to rest in several villages near Yangcun, leaving only a guard company at his own command post.
After arriving in Yang Village, Wang Yousheng quickly thought of this guy, Yamamoto Ichiki.
He connected this to the sudden retreat of the Japanese First Regiment, and he was pretty much certain that they would launch a surprise attack in the coming days.
Now, a choice is presented to him.
First, assist Kong Jie in defending Yang Village, and use the Golden Finger to resist Yamamoto Ichiki, causing Yamamoto Ichiki to retreat in the face of difficulties.
Second, pretending not to know, the Independent Regiment's guard company suffered heavy losses, Kong Jie was dismissed, and Li Yunlong smoothly took over.
When the thought of this option arose, Wang Yousheng resolutely decided to assist Kong Jie.
In the battle at Liuchen Village Pass, many soldiers died before his eyes, and he would not let the soldiers of the guard company lose their lives without knowing why.
Even if it changes the course of the plot.
Wang Yousheng had thought it over and realized that there were two ways to help the Independent Regiment block Yamamoto Ichiki.
First, fight alone, or have Zhang Shan and his men assist you.
Second, inform Kong Jie of the intelligence and ask him to deploy defenses.
Therefore, in order to wait for Yamamoto Ichiki, he specially asked Li Yunlong to stay a few more days.
Wang Yousheng was clearly not of a high enough rank to give orders to Kong Jie, so he decided to keep a close eye on the movements within a kilometer radius of Yang Village every night and report any incidents immediately.
At the same time, by using their special abilities, they can analyze the enemy's position and direction, and set up firing positions.
That evening, Wang Yousheng and Zhang Shan had just finished ten rounds of bayonet fighting. After more than a month, Wang Yousheng had mastered the basic bayonet technique to a proficiency level of 100, but he had never actually fought against the enemy.
Zhang Shan and his soldiers were very happy. In the battle of Liuchen Village, they fought bravely and, thanks to their excellent bayonet skills, not a single person was injured or killed.
Furthermore, he killed three Japanese soldiers by himself.
Clearly, the bayonet fighting technique proved effective.
Currently, Wang Yousheng only hopes to break through the Bronze Zone and reach the Silver Zone as soon as possible. The Silver Zone contains intermediate bayonet fighting techniques, and he is very much looking forward to his cheat system giving him a good reward.
"Old Commander!"
Wang Yousheng was squatting in the corner of the yard wiping away sweat when he noticed Li Yunlong returning with his hands behind his back.
Li Yunlong's expression was off; he seemed to be sulking, and he kept muttering curses.
Wang Yousheng was also puzzled. After being transferred from Liuchen Village to Yang Village, Li Yunlong's mood had been very complicated. Anyone with eyes could see that Li Yunlong was feeling stifled.
"Shengzi, pack your things tomorrow, we have to go back to the clothing factory."
Li Yunlong walked to the door of his room, tilted his head and said something.
"Going back?" Wang Yousheng was a little reluctant, after all, that damn Yamamoto hadn't made a move yet.
Li Yunlong said, "What, you want to stay here for the New Year? I have to go back and make my uniform."
"Bang!"
Just then, a gunshot rang out from the void.
Something's up!
Li Yunlong's tiger-like eyes narrowed as he looked in the direction of the gunshot; it was the sentries at the village entrance who had fired.
"They're here!"
Wang Yousheng finally saw Yamamoto Ichiki, but why didn't his cheat code give him any hints? However, he quickly figured it out: the village entrance was a kilometer or two away from the regimental headquarters, which was already beyond the range of the aftershocks!
As soon as the gunshot rang out, the entire Independent Regiment sprang into action.
The guards hurriedly assembled, and Kong Jie, who had just gotten into bed, also quickly put on a shirt, grabbed his gun, and rushed out.
"Where are you shooting? Where are you shooting?"
Kong Jie moved closer to Li Yunlong and said in surprise.
Li Yunlong said, "It looks like some Japanese devils have sneaked into our territory. Old Kong, where's your guard company? Let's go check it out."
"Damn it, headquarters is only a few kilometers away from here, we can't afford to have anything happen to them!"
After Kong Jie finished speaking, he immediately organized the guard company to rush to the village entrance.
Wang Yousheng didn't move because he understood that Yamamoto Ichiki's special forces team wasn't just one group at the village entrance; there were others in the back mountains.
During this period, he had been wandering around the back mountain, which has a cliff hundreds of meters below.
Kong Jie originally wanted to set up a sentry post next to the cliff, but considering that the cliff was so high that even a bird probably couldn't fly up, he didn't take that into consideration.
But Yamamoto Ichiki climbed up the cliff, and the special forces attacked from both sides, which is why Kong Jie was attacked from both sides!
Now that Wang Yousheng has the intelligence, he naturally cannot let Yamamoto Ichiki succeed.
