Chapter 618: Sato leaves shit footprints, and Team Yellow kicks Kudo's door
The shelling finally stopped. Sato got up and saw that his brigade was in such a miserable state.
The Sato Brigade, with more than 12,000 soldiers, now has only about 400 men left.
Apart from a squadron on duty at the city gate, he now only has one squadron under his command.
During the bombardment, only about 200 Japanese soldiers escaped, and only about 100 of them were carrying guns.
Their arsenal in the barracks was also blown up into the sky.
Sato knew that there must be many living subordinates beneath the ruins of the barracks.
But he didn't want to care about it now, because Sato had figured it out.
The reason why the national army outside the city suddenly launched an attack was definitely because the main force of their division could not come due to an accident.
Since the big fish Kurokawa has been hooked, there is naturally no need for me, as the bait, to stay.
At this time, he didn't care about the strange smell on his body. As soon as the artillery fire stopped, he immediately got up from the ground and commanded the troops to retreat.
"Hurry up, everyone, follow me and break out from the city gate. There is a squadron of our brigade there."
After saying this, Sato led the more than 200 survivors and ran towards the city gate.
There is no need to go to the other city gates because the guards of those two city gates are the responsibility of the puppet army and the detective team.
By listening to the location of the gunfire and the sounds of artillery fire, he could already conclude that the National Army's guerrilla division had entered the city.
There was no need to investigate; the national army could easily enter the county town without making any noise.
Either the puppet army turned against us, or the detective team rebelled, or maybe both.
They had already experienced the minefield outside another city gate.
If we break out from there again tonight, we don’t know what tricks the enemy commander will prepare for us to use against us and our subordinates.
Therefore, the South Gate guarded by their brigade squadron was the safest way to break out.
He was quite fast. Just as they were evacuating, the soldiers from the Second Battalion of the Independent Regiment had already attacked the gate of the military camp.
When I walked through the gate, there was really nothing to see. The entire military camp was almost flattened.
Second Battalion Commander: "Brothers from the first platoon and those who surrendered, search the enemy camp immediately.
See if there are any who haven't started yet, and give them a hand.
You guys from the first battalion's search platoon, come quickly and see if any of the Japanese have escaped.
We should also root out the Japanese and not let any of them escape."
Platoon leader: "Report to the battalion commander, the Japanese should have fled in that direction, should we chase them?"
The battalion commander looked at the puppet army's commander, Xie, who quickly said, "Commander, that direction is the South City Gate.
That's the defense zone of Brigadier General Sato. If they want to escape, they will definitely go in that direction."
The second battalion commander turned around and asked, "Are you so sure that they ran from that direction?"
Platoon leader: "Report to the battalion commander, the Japs must be heading in that direction.
Look at those shit-stained shoe prints on the ground. They were from the camp, walking towards that side.
If you don’t believe me, smell it. The smell is not gone yet.”
The battalion commander looked down and was so disgusted that he quickly got away from there.
"Bad boy, why didn't you tell me earlier? You've ruined my new pair of shoes."
Then he took the remaining soldiers of the Second Battalion and asked Captain Xie to lead them and head straight for the South Gate.
Now let’s talk about Captain Kudo of the Military Police and the situation there.
Kudo was the captain of the military police. He usually hid in the county town to work, so he didn't have to go out personally to catch anti-Japanese elements.
So my evaluation of Captain Kudo is that he uses his brain more than his hands.
The reason why he was able to become the captain of the gendarmerie was not because he was so smart, but because he was really not good at fighting.
In this respect, he is much worse than Captain Fu of the detective team.
When Captain Fu heard the gunshot just now, he immediately took out his revolver, jumped from his chair and squatted at the door.
The reason why he was able to perform such standard tactical moves was due to his time in the countryside.
Being chased and beaten by the Eighth Route Army guerrillas for many years has trained his reaction and response abilities.
He did this because it would be bad for them if someone rushed in.
Then the opponent's gun must be pointing at the center of the room.
If you hide against the wall at the door, you can shoot the person in the back when he enters the door.
Don’t ask why Captain Fu is so good. The answer is that he learned it from the scouts of the Eighth Route Army.
Think about the first few years when the Eighth Route Army arrived in Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, many of their detective team members died.
After all, this is the lair of the gendarmerie. They are engaged in intelligence interrogation, so naturally their rest time will be very late.
In addition, their captain Kudo has not gone to rest yet.
So there are still many Japanese soldiers busy working in the gendarmerie.
Platoon Leader Zheng's subordinates initially used silent pistols to eliminate targets house by house, and the process was quite successful.
However, a group of Japanese soldiers were preparing to go out to the gate to change guard.
I just happened to see a soldier from the search platoon stabbing a Japanese officer with a dagger.
A member of the detective team nearby even covered his mouth. The battle started in an instant.
However, the Japanese's dying struggle seemed so pale and powerless.
The soldiers of the search platoon reacted quickly. Once they saw that their actions had been exposed, they just started fighting.
The soldier quickly let go of the knife and dodged to the side.
The bullet fired from the Japanese Type 38 rifle grazed his shoulder and hit the outer wall of the office.
At this time, the young man in the search platoon was already half-crouching, and quickly took out his gun and loaded the bullet.
Just as the Japanese soldier from the gendarmerie was still pulling the bolt of his gun.
The M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle in his hand had already fired eight shots in rapid succession.
When his magazine jumped out of the gun chamber, the three Japanese soldiers standing in the front had already been shot and fell to the ground.
Then another soldier from the search platoon also raised his gun.
The two of us shot at the Japanese over and over again, one firing and the other reloading bullets.
With only two semi-automatic rifles, they were able to suppress a dozen Japanese soldiers and force them to retreat step by step.
This made the detective team member dumbfounded. He even forgot to look for a cover.
Alas, is it that the brothers of the guerrilla division are too brave, or is it that the current generals are really no good enough.
Finally, a soldier passed by the Japanese and fired a volley of bullets at them.
Just like that, in less than a minute, a squad of Japanese soldiers died under the guns of three Nationalist soldiers.
Everyone in the detective team now admires their own Captain Huang very much, who has great vision.
Fortunately, they joined the guerrilla division relatively early, otherwise they might have been the next to be killed by them.
Come to think of it, if the army of your country has always been so powerful, who would want to be a traitor?
Captain Huang was not idle either. As they walked towards Kudo's office, Japanese soldiers kept coming out to intercept them.
However, these Japanese soldiers all died at the hands of the search platoon soldiers who followed and covered them.
Captain Huang wanted to show his firm opposition.
He picked up a Japanese command knife from the ground and walked to the door of Kudo's office first.
Before Platoon Leader Zheng could provide cover, Captain Huang kicked open the door of Kudo's office.
