I really came here to fight against Japan

Chapter 490: Battalion Commander Persuaded to Surrender and Got Shot

Sun Desheng jumped off his horse and shouted, "Where is the shooting?"

It’s not that Sun Desheng is timid. Don’t forget that he is a cavalryman.

In such a small stronghold, riding on a horse would make you a sitting duck.

Translator Xia stepped forward and said, "Commander, the place where the shooting took place should be the barracks of the Imperial Army.

There were two battalions of the Imperial Army there, and our Battalion Commander Zhang went there to persuade them to surrender.

There was a battalion commander named Gou Buling, who was a die-hard traitor and not easy to persuade.

Now there are gunshots over there again, I'm afraid Captain Zhang is in big trouble."

When Sun Desheng saw the man in front of him, he saw that he had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a look of "righteousness".

"Comrade, please help lead the way for us. Let's go to the military camp and eliminate those traitorous dogs."

Several soldiers of the Imperial Army who were guarding the gate looked at Translator Xia and Sun Desheng and ran straight to the barracks.

Hey, our translator Xia is quite tight-lipped.

You see, he keeps calling me "chief" and cursing me "a diehard traitor".

No matter how you look at it, this translator Xia is an underground worker who has infiltrated the stronghold.

Translator Xia: What are you looking at? It's my fault for being too immersed in the drama...

With the personal guidance of Translator Xia, Sun Desheng led a battalion of soldiers to block the gate of the Imperial Army camp.

Translator Xia looked at the dozen or so bodies on the ground and quickly called out to Captain Zhang who was holding his shoulder.

Captain Zhang's shoulder was obviously injured, and blood was flowing down his hand.

Sun Desheng waved his hand and the medical soldier immediately stepped forward to help Battalion Commander Zhang treat his wounds.

"Brother Zhang, what happened to you? You suffered such a big loss."

Captain Zhang smiled bitterly and said, "I was tricked by that bastard Su Wangcai just now.

When I arrived just now, I asked someone to use machine guns to seal the gate.

The terrain here is special, and the Japanese base is behind the barracks.

The enemy's courtyard wall was thick and high, and they had no way to escape from behind it.

The only exit was blocked by me, so they had no choice but to negotiate with me.

I didn't expect Su Wangcai to be so unsportsmanlike and order his men to shoot us while I was talking to Captain Liu.

Not only was I injured, but even Captain Liu and his dozen or so guards were killed by Su Wangcai.

He is now leading two battalions of the Imperial Army, hiding in the barracks and fighting stubbornly.

They firmly disagreed and surrendered to the Eighth Route Army leaders."

At this time, the medical soldier had already treated Captain Zhang's wounds.

He said: "The people inside are really cruel, your wounds were caused by a Type 38 rifle.

The trajectory of this gun is stable, which means the opponent's shooting skills are terrible, otherwise your head would have exploded."

Sun Desheng said angrily: "Are the people inside so arrogant?

Aren't you determined to work for the Japanese?"

Sun Desheng arrived at the gate of the Imperial Army's camp. With full energy, he shouted to the people inside.

"Listen to me, Imperial Army soldiers in the barracks. I am the commander of the cavalry regiment of the Eighth Route Army, Taiyue Military Region.

I will give you three minutes to think about it. If you do not surrender after three minutes, you will be treated as a traitor. "

At this time, the Imperial Army in the barracks also started shouting.

"Listen up, Eighth Route Army soldiers outside. I am Su Wangcai, the commander of the Third Battalion of the Imperial Army.

You guys hurry up and leave the base, otherwise the Taijuns will come and kill you, and you will never be able to return."

Sun Desheng: "Are you still waiting for the Japanese? They have already withdrawn from their base and don't care whether you live or die."

Su Wangcai said in panic: "You are talking nonsense, how could the Queen not care about us?

The lady must be gathering heavy troops now, and will soon be able to form a counter-encirclement of the Eighth Route Army.

Don't be fooled by the Eighth Route Army. As long as you hold on, the reward from the Queen will be given to you.

Otherwise, whoever surrenders to the Eighth Route Army will have his entire family killed by the Taijun."

After Su Wangcai's intimidation, the Imperial Army soldiers who had begun to become restless in the barracks quieted down again.

At this moment, the translator Xia shouted from the side: "Mr. Su, do you think the Japanese are your father? Why did you send a large number of troops to rescue you?

When the Eighth Route Army entered the stronghold just now, where was the Taijun you mentioned?

When the Eighth Route Army shouted at you to surrender, where was your Taijun?

The Japanese's base is only separated from you by a wall. May I ask where they are now?

Brothers inside, listen up, don't listen to the nonsense that guy named Su is talking about.

He was a die-hard traitor, so he didn't dare to agree to surrender to the Eighth Route Army.

I know that the brothers are following the Japanese now because they have no choice but to make a living (Translator Xia said this for himself).

As long as you lay down your weapons and surrender now, the Eighth Route Army comrades will not refuse to give you a chance to live.

There is also a private person named Su. The Japanese have just called to inform Huang Huaishui.

Now all the Japanese in the Huting stronghold have fled, leaving only the Imperial Army to hold the position and wait for reinforcements.

The Eighth Route Army has now occupied the entire stronghold. Su Wangcai, how many minutes do you think you can hold on?"

Sun Desheng nodded. This "Old Xia" was a pretty good negotiator.

What he said was reasonable, well-founded and restrained, and he used both appeasement and intimidation tactics on the Imperial Army.

Su Wangcai shouted: "Brothers of the Imperial Army, don't believe what Xia said.

The Eighth Route Army that came from outside were either Li Yanwang’s troops or Wu Yanwang’s troops.

If the brothers surrender to them, they will definitely die."

Translator Xia: "Su, you are talking nonsense. The commander has just said that they are from the Taiyue Military Region Cavalry Regiment.

He was the head of the brigade of the Eighth Route Army, and his own directly subordinate troops were an absolutely important regiment.

You don't trust me, so you don't trust the commander of the Eighth Route Army brigade?"

After some deception by Translator Xia, the Imperial Army in the barracks began to become restless again.

One reason is that half a day has passed, and no Japanese soldiers have been seen coming to support them.

At this point, everyone believed 70% or 80% of what Translator Xia said, that Captain Sato had escaped.

Most of the Imperial Army here were just trying to make a living.

Since the Japanese have already run away, there is no need for them to save Sato's life.

Another thing is that since they surrendered the cavalry regiment of the brigade commander, they had nothing to worry about.

When Su Wangcai saw that he could no longer suppress the Imperial Army in the barracks, he realized that he could no longer suppress it.

He quickly called one of his trusted confidants over and whispered to him.

"Kill that Xia guy for me, and make sure you hit him on target this time.

Otherwise, all these peasants would have surrendered to the Eighth Route Army.

Don't forget that we all have the blood debt of the Eighth Route Army in our hands.

If we are caught by the Eighth Route Army, none of us will survive."

The soldier under his command, with a fierce look in his eyes and a Type 38 rifle in his hand, sneaked out of the barracks.

Sun Desheng, who was outside the barracks gate, pulled translator Xia over.

"Who is Li Yanwang? What does this Wu Yanwang mean?

Why are the Imperial Army willing to surrender when it is mentioned that it is a numbered regiment? "

As soon as these words came out, Translator Xia's face became obviously embarrassed.

He explained: "This King Li is the Brigade Commander Li Yunlong.

Wu Yanwang is naturally the Brigade Commander Wu Changfeng of our Eighth Route Army."
