989 Yamamoto Planted Again
To be honest, there are not many Japanese and puppet troops hunting, among which the 91st Brigade's Kanto army was only about one squadron, and there was a battalion of puppet troops left.
Originally, in Yamamoto's opinion, there was no need for so many soldiers to pursue him. After all, the opponent was only the people, but the intelligence said that there were many people fleeing, so Yamamoto sent more people.
As for the original encirclement, it naturally did not disperse, and Japanese and puppet troops continued to be stationed.
So in terms of number of people, the strength of Han Feng and his party and the ambushed Japanese and puppet troops is not much different.
However, compared with the strength of the two sides, the battle between the main force of the Wulinkou Far Eastern Regiment against the Shimaji Brigade and a puppet legion last time was incomparable.
First, the Shimaji brigade was well-equipped and even carried heavy weapons and artillery. But the Japanese and puppet army in front of him, who were chasing the third battalion, because they really regarded Han Feng and his party as the people, and in order to achieve the goal of quick pursuit, they even gave up carrying baggage. At most, there were a few light machine guns, and most of the soldiers were just holding a manual rifle.
According to common sense, unarmed people have a gun, which seems to be enough for anyone.
Second, when he was fighting against the Islamichi brigade in Wulinkou, Han Feng directly had the idea of destroying the Islamichi brigade.
But this time, in order to avoid the trouble of quickly supporting the Japanese troops around him, Han Feng's order was to defeat the Japanese and puppet troops.
From these two aspects, the mission of the Far East Regiment this ambush is actually much easier than in Wulinkou.
When the battle started, Yamamoto was still paced back and forth at his temporary command center. He was wondering, "Just just hunting down a group of people, he also sent additional staff. Why hasn't the news been sent back yet?"
Suddenly, I heard gunshots coming from the southeast, and then gunshots coming from the northwest.
Yamamoto's face changed slightly, and he thought to himself that it was not good. The direction of the two gunfires was obviously just pursuing the people, so why did it seem like a firefight?
Could it be...
"Damn it, I'm fooled again, Han Feng, you cunning evil thief."
The staff members looked at Yamamoto who suddenly became angry and did not dare to say anything. The correspondents hurriedly ran into the command center to report:
"Reported that our troops were pursuing the people's two teams, and were ambushed in Xiaonankou in the northwest and Longwo Village in the southeast. The people who fled had disguised rebels. They suddenly launched a sneak attack. Our troops caught them off guard? They suffered heavy losses."
"Baga——"
Yamamoto's beard was almost rising? "The team closest to Xiaonankou and Longwo Village will quickly support the two places."
"Hi!"
After the furious, Yamamoto slowly calmed down. He said distressedly: "I'm fooled again? This hateful Han Feng, it turns out that these people are all disguised by his team? Now, he lost two squadrons and didn't say that he would let them escape again?"
Yamamoto said? It was too late to analyze with the commanders of the command.
The correspondents came in one after another to report:
Our troops were quickly defeated in Xiaonankou and Longwo Village, and the rebels evacuated in time. It was too late when our troops arrived.
...
Our Xiaogu Squadron suffered a raid in the direction north.
Our troops suffered raids in the south and east of our team.
"Deploy troops, mobilize troops? Encircle and suppress!" Yamamoto ordered.
"Report? After the rebels broke through, they quickly drilled into the mountainous forest area to deal with our army. After our army went deeper, they suffered huge losses."
"Report that the areas around our army were raided by unknown teams."
...
"Reported that a Royal Army rebelled and took the opportunity to sneak attack a small team of our army? Then he entered the mountainous area."
When this news finally came, Yamamoto, who suffered from internal and external troubles, finally collapsed. He knew that things could not be done, and even the Imperial Army began to rebel.
The original advantages are lost? If you continue to encircle like this, you will pay more money? You will suffer more shame.
In the stalemate, Yamamoto kept receiving bad news? A day passed quickly? The Kwantung Army General Command sent another order:
Because your troops have drawn too many troops from major county towns, rebellions are frequent in the county towns. Now your troops have failed to wipe out the Far East Corps. They immediately withdraw their troops and return the team to the original county town to maintain public order.
With pressure from all parties, Yamamoto finally collapsed and sighed, as if he had grown ten years old in an instant. He waved his hand and ordered:
"Send orders...withdraw, army!"
In an instant, the Japanese and puppet army was surrounded and suppressed, and retreated like a tide.
There was also a funny and hilarious incident.
Just as a squadron of a Kwantung Army in the 91st Brigade was evacuated horizontally.
A scout returned and said that he had discovered the enemy situation in a forest not far away.
The Japanese squadron leader asked about the situation, and the scout said that he looked like a group of Far East rebels, with hundreds of people squatting in the mountains and forests.
When the Japanese squadron leader heard this, his face turned pale. Without saying a word, he immediately ordered the team to quickly stay away from that area.
The destruction of the Shimaji brigade and many squadrons has become a nightmare for them, the lower-level Japanese commanders.
Even in the eyes of this Japanese squadron leader, even if the enemy's troops are as strong as his, he may not be the opponent, not to mention that there are hundreds of people squatting in the woods, and maybe they are waiting to ambush and raid him!
Looking at the squadron leader who hurriedly ordered the retreat, the Japanese scout was stunned and scratched his head. He originally wanted to say that the rebels of the Far East Army were holding pigs, sheep, chickens, and food bags around him. The situation was very strange.
But all teams have withdrawn. What's the use of saying these?
The scout sighed and hurriedly followed the team, but he always felt like he had missed something.
Just like that, the people wearing the clothes of the Far East Corps soldiers observed by the Japanese scouts were completely aware of it, avoiding a life-and-death crisis.
After Yamamoto's team retreated, the troops from all sides that were originally drawn by him returned to the original county town to maintain public order.
The underground comrades such as Zhang Wensheng and Zhou Guangwu were active in the area of Tangyuan County. Seeing that the Japanese and puppet troops returned, they knew that the crisis on the Han regiment commander had been lifted, so they ordered the organization to enter a lurking state again.
Some of the uprisings broke out in a place, some of which went into the mountains and forests to fight guerrillas, while others simply disbanded on the spot. When the Japanese and puppet troops returned, it seemed as if nothing had happened.
This made the Japanese and puppet soldiers very depressed.
At this point, the encirclement and suppression campaign organized by Saburo Yamamoto, the commander of the 91st Brigade of the Kanto Army, swept dozens of county towns, and the massive encirclement and suppression of the Far East Regiment and the Wuyun Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Base Area was completely over.
But for a few days, everything seemed to have returned to peace.
