"Tuk Tuk Tuk-"
The knuckles of the devil's staff slammed against the wooden door, making a dull sound, which woke up the sleeping brigade commander, Major General Xuan Dao Gao.
Xuan Daogao turned over and sat up. Seeing that it was dark outside the window and it was still dark, he frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
The devil's staff officer hurriedly replied outside the door: "General, the prisoner-of-war camp has been attacked, and all the prisoners have escaped..."
After hearing this, Xuan Daogao, head of the ghost brigade, changed his expression, and hurriedly got out of bed and put on his clothes and opened the door.
The door creaked open, and he saw the panic-stricken staff officer standing at the door, he asked sullenly, "When will the first thing happen?"
The staff officer replied respectfully: "An hour ago."
"Bagaya Road! Why did you report it now??" Major General Xuan Dao Gao immediately turned pale.
The devil's staff hurriedly explained: "This time the Chongqing army who attacked the prisoner-of-war camp came prepared, and all the telephone lines were destroyed. The Eighth Squadron stationed near the prisoner-of-war camp heard the explosion and the exchange of fire and sent people to check. , the prisoner-of-war camp was attacked, and when they arrived, all the prisoners had escaped."
After hearing the explanation, Major General Xuan Daogao's face softened. He knew that in such a dark rainy night, the Chongqing army launched an attack on the prisoner-of-war camp and succeeded. He himself was too careless.
He always thought that there was Tanaka Jingyi's 13th Division in front of them, and even if the Chongqing Army wanted to attack their Dangyang occupied area, it would be difficult to bypass the 13th Division's blockade.
But what he didn't expect was that the Chongqing army really quietly bypassed the blockade and launched an attack on their prisoner-of-war camp in Dangyang.
Thinking of losing more than 1000 prisoners of war in his own hands, Xuan Daogao felt upset for no reason.
"What is Lieutenant Kojima doing? Couldn't a reinforced squadron be able to defend for an hour?! What a waste, immediately dismissed and investigated!"
Major General Xuan Dao Gao cursed and vented his anger on the captain of the garrison squadron.
The staff officer glanced at Gao Xuandao, and then said: "Mr. Kojima has been killed in battle, and the garrison squadron suffered heavy losses in this attack, and the number of casualties is being counted."
"Do you know how many Chongqing troops attacked the prisoner-of-war camp?" Xuan Daogao was also surprised to hear that the prisoner-of-war camp suffered such heavy losses.
Xuan Dao Gao has been involved in the invasion of China since the July [-]th Incident, and he knows the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army well.
Although the combat effectiveness of their 18th Mixed Brigade is not as good as that of the 13th Division, their combat effectiveness is not much weaker. An infantry squadron is more than enough to deal with a Chinese infantry regiment.
But now he suffered heavy losses, which made him wonder if the main force of the Chinese army had arrived near Dangyang. If that was the case, it would not be an attack on a prisoner-of-war camp. Could it be that the Chinese army was preparing to counterattack on a large scale?
While Xuan Daogao was thinking wildly and guessing, the staff officer's words made him even more angry.
Because according to the information sent back from the prisoner-of-war camp, there are not many Chinese troops attacking the prisoner-of-war camp, at most one infantry battalion, but their combat effectiveness is very strong.
A mere infantry battalion dared to go deep into their control area to rescue prisoners of war. They simply ignored their 18th mixed brigade, and the brigade leader Xuan Daogao was very angry.
"The Chongqing army is too arrogant!"
Xuan Daogao roared angrily, it was like slapping them across the face.
"Immediately order all troops to assemble immediately!" Xuan Daogao issued the military order full of anger.
"Hi Yi!"
After the devil's staff bowed heavily, he immediately turned around and got into the rain.
Soon, the captains of the devils in the bed were also assembled in the headquarters of the 18th Mixed Brigade.
These sleepy-eyed captains had already heard about the prisoner-of-war camp on the way here, so they knew that the brigade commander Xuan Daogao was very angry.
In the brightly lit war room, all the devil officers looked serious, and when they were woken up in the middle of the night, they had already begun to scold their mothers in their hearts.
The Chinese army hadn't come for a long time, but they attacked the prisoner-of-war camp at this time, and they felt a headache when they thought of chasing them on the muddy road in the heavy rain.
"The Chongqing army attacked our prisoner-of-war camp, and more than 1000 prisoners of war were all rescued, and they found out that we drew the blood of the prisoners of war to make plasma." The brigade commander Xuan Daogao's face was particularly dignified.
Xuan Dao Gaodao: "Presumably everyone knows that once this matter is exposed, we will be under great pressure from the international community, so we must catch up with these fleeing Chongqing soldiers and prisoners of war. Only the dead will not reveal this matter." secret."
"I ordered that, except for the Pingtian infantry brigade, the rest of the troops should form a pursuit force immediately, and this Chongqing army must be wiped out! This time, we will not keep any prisoners!"
"Hi Yi!"
The answers of the devil officers were forceful, and their faces were filled with a bloodthirsty look.
Soon, when the barracks of the devils in Yangcheng became noisy, groups of devil soldiers with live ammunition lined up and drove out of the barracks. Military vehicles full of devils also splashed muddy water all over the sky, and began to attack Yang Ling and the others. Chase action.
The reaction speed of the devils was very fast. The time between receiving the prisoner-of-war camp and encountering an attack and dispatching troops was only more than an hour.
Of course, Yang Ling and the others didn't know that the devils had dispatched heavy troops to chase and intercept them.
They successfully rescued more than 1000 captured officers and soldiers in the prisoner-of-war camp after paying only more than a dozen casualties, which can be said to be a complete victory.
After the rescue operation was completed, they prepared to retreat to Dahong Mountain along the planned retreat route. As long as they entered the mountainous area, the little devils would have nothing to do with them.
"Thank you for your guerrillas' help this time, and look forward to our next cooperation."
Yang Ling and the others were going to evacuate with the rescued officers and soldiers, while the guerrillas had to stay in the area and continue to fight guerrillas. Because time was running out, they had to separate again.
"What did Officer Yang say? You are the ones who saved people. We are just helping. If you go to Dangyang to perform missions in the future, just say hello. Our guerrillas will definitely help." The mission was successfully completed. Guerrilla is also happy.
"In that case, I'll thank you in advance. When you return to the army, I'll treat you to a drink." Yang Ling saluted the guerrilla officers and soldiers.
Many officers and soldiers of the guerrillas were also left by the troops when they retreated. Although they wanted to go back to the troops, they also had orders to stay here to fight guerrillas. Seeing Yang Ling salute them, they also They all returned the gift one after another.
"This time we annoyed the little devil, you must be careful of the devil's revenge." Before Yang Ling left, he did not forget to remind the guerrilla leader.
"Don't worry, Mr. Yang, we will definitely pay attention."
"Then we'll take our leave, bye."
"Take care of yourself!"
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
The heavy rain shrouded the distant mountains and near forests, and the sky was already slightly bright. A large group of devils with live ammunition were pursuing along the direction in which Yang Ling and the others retreated.
Although the heavy rain washed away many traces, no matter how well the road traveled by thousands of people is concealed, there will always be clues, and it is difficult to fool the cunning little devil.
"Captain, the little devil is chasing in this direction."
After separating from Yang Ling and the others, the guerrillas were going back to the hidden camp to rest. After all, they took away the devil's prisoner-of-war camp overnight and fought a battle. They were exhausted, but soon they found the devil's trail.
"How did the little devil come so fast?"
The guerrilla leader stood on a high place and held up his binoculars to observe. In the binoculars, a large number of devils were chasing after them.
Yang Ling and the others attacked the devil's prisoner-of-war camp and rescued thousands of captive officers and soldiers, which can be said to have stabbed a hornet's nest.
The commander of the Devil's 18th Mixed Brigade, Xuan Dao Gao, naturally refused to let them go so easily. In order to save face and not expose their evil deeds, after learning that the prisoner camp was attacked, he immediately mobilized a large number of soldiers. The troops surrounded Yang Ling and the others.
