Chapter 109 Each has a trick to lure the enemy (1)
"Bang", a Japanese Type 92 infantry cannon fired again in the valley.
With this fire, the cannon body sat back for a while, but was pushed to the spot by the cannon hoe behind it.
The smoke rose, and another Japanese soldier carried the shells forward, but was immediately stopped by the Japanese commander.
So far, they have only fired more than ten artillery pieces in total, but the Japanese commander thought this was enough. After all, the Northeast Army in Ningyuan City only had one regiment.
If the Northeast Army did not lose the Fengtian Arsenal, then the Japanese Kwantung Army would be a little afraid. After all, the Northeast Army had all the aircraft, cannons, tanks and vehicles.
However, with the September 18th Incident, the Northeast Army's military production base was occupied by their Japanese Kwantung Army, which used less than 200 troops.
Without logistics supplies, the Northeast Army is like a tiger without teeth. So what's the terrible thing about their Japanese Kwantung Army?
What's more, artillery bombardment was just a plan to knock on the mountain and shake the tigers set by the Japanese army.
Ningyuan City is just a small county town, and there is no danger to defend. If they shoot shells into the city, how will the Northeast Army react?
At this time, in the Ningyuan County town, the regiment commander Liu Cheng was looking at a house that had been blown up with a calm face. The soldiers were busy saving people from the ruins.
Unfortunately, a Japanese shell hit the military camp, and dozens of officers and soldiers in the house were either killed or injured.
"Captain, you can't stand it here. If the Japanese fire a few more shots, our casualties will definitely be even heavier. Let's break through." His chief of staff advised.
Liu Cheng did not expect that their regiment would be surrounded by the Japanese army in Ningyuan City.
Originally, Liu Cheng planned to hold on to wait for assistance. Although Zhang Liancai suffered most of the losses and Zhang Liancai was killed, according to the reports of the returned soldiers, the more than ten scattered soldiers he had gathered had already escaped.
Liu Cheng had no reason not to believe that the more than a dozen scattered soldiers would not go to Suizhong, which is closest to Ningyuan City, to find reinforcements.
It was only 200 miles from Ningyuan to Suizhong. If the ten scattered soldiers were not stupid but went to find horses to travel for transportation, they would have arrived after two days of reinforcements.
But now the Japanese army actually shot the shells in Ningyuan City. Just this small city and narrow streets, how could it withstand the Japanese army's bombing like this?
"Ah--" The injured soldier was pulled out of the ruins by his companions, and he was already choking, but his feet had turned 180 degrees, which was his ankle that exploded.
Liu Cheng became upset.
"Save people quickly, break through an hour later, and rush out from the northeast." Liu Cheng ordered.
"Captain, why did you rush out from the northeast?" His chief of staff was puzzled.
The northeast direction is the direction of the Japanese army, there should be many Japanese troops there, right? His chief of staff thought.
"The west is the territory of Japanese artillery. Are you looking for death from there? You don't think that the Japanese artillery can hit four or five miles, but you can't hit a mile or two?" Liu Cheng asked back.
His chief of staff could only respond "Yes".
In fact, what can we do from which direction to break out? They are now trapped in a dangerous city. Who knows in which direction the Japanese army has deployed more troops?
At this time, just west of Ningyuan City, the Japanese artillery soldiers who had temporarily completed the artillery mission were resting.
But at this time, a Japanese soldier screamed. When the other Japanese soldiers looked over, they saw that the Japanese soldier had turned around and pointed to the west and shouted.
There is no need to follow the direction pointed by the Japanese soldier.
Just because it's too obvious.
All the Japanese soldiers saw that a few wisps of light blue smoke rose behind the low hill just a few hundred meters away to the west.
The 92 infantry artillery used by the Japanese artillery was about five miles away, and the Northeast Army in the city did not have artillery, so when they fired the fire into the city, they chose a place that was not far or near - three miles away from Ningyuan City.
It is a valley surrounded by low hills.
Since they arrived here only at dusk yesterday, as artillery positions, there were naturally warning sentries around them.
However, the sentry was only placed on the hill behind the position. When the sentry looked west, they didn't take it seriously.
But now there is blue smoke rising from the other end of the hill. What's going on?
The Japanese commander thought for a moment and gave an order, and he ordered the six Japanese soldiers to check the place where the green smoke rose.
Of course, there will be no fewer Japanese troops besieging Ningyuan City, but not many, let alone their artillery is several miles away from Ningyuan City. Why do they set off so many soldiers?
Now there is only one infantry that protects their Type 92 infantry artillery, and the rest are artillery soldiers.
A Japanese army's squad is equivalent to a squad of the Chinese army, and the full squad is only thirteen people.
The Japanese commander felt that it would be a lot for him to send out five soldiers.
Nowadays, the large and medium-sized cities in the three northeastern provinces have almost been occupied by the Japanese army. As the saying goes, "all tempers are used to come out." Even now, there is only one squadron of the Japanese army besieging Ningyuan City. As for the others, they are all puppet troops, and the Japanese army is now very arrogant!
Under the leadership of a leader Cao, the five Japanese soldiers went to the place where the green smoke rose. When they walked around the hill ahead, they found that the wisps of green smoke were still behind the hill ahead.
This is a hill and the forest is dense. At this time, the Japanese army discovered that there was a winding mountain road in the woods, but they had never noticed it at all.
Five Japanese soldiers opened the distance between the front and back and carried rifles and then advanced. When they climbed up to a Gaogang, they saw more than ten houses in the valley.
At this point, they realized that there was a small village here!
Several Japanese soldiers recalled as they spoke. They escorted the infantry cannon to the open ground outside the hill at dusk yesterday. At that time, they did not see smoke rising from behind.
It seems that the Chinese people did not dare to ignite the fire when they saw the war here.
But they can't always have cold meals, so today I can't help but start cooking with a fire.
Seeing that the origin of Qingyan had been found, the Japanese Chief Cao wanted to take his head back, but at this moment, a Japanese soldier pointed to the front and shouted. The remaining Japanese soldiers followed his finger and saw a goat tied to a big tree in front of a farmhouse!
Several Japanese soldiers were excited at the same time. Chief Cao waved his hand and left a soldier to guard the mountain with guns. The remaining four men walked down from the Gaogang with guns.
