    As soon as Xu Ziyu left, the rumbling sound of cannons shrouded the small building. This old house, which was said to have a history of hundreds of years, collapsed amid the explosions.

    At this time, the entire Niujia Village was full of gunshots and explosions. It seemed that there was fighting everywhere, and there seemed to be thousands of people fighting.

    But in fact, the number of troops fighting in the entire village is very limited. The Japanese army invested two squadrons of more than 300 troops, plus more than 100 puppet troops. The Shandong Guerrilla Corps quietly invested four combat groups from a squadron of the guard squadron.  , a total of less than fifty people.

    "However, these fifty people have all received training from the special operations team, and they are all qualified special operations members themselves. Naturally, their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of ordinary troops!"

    Half an hour later, after suffering huge casualties, the Japanese army finally occupied most of the village and were now attacking the northernmost part of the village.

    Xu Ziyu saw that the time was almost up, then gave a signal to other team members and others, and then quickly evacuated from the northwest direction of the village.

    After a lot of effort, the Japs finally captured the entire Niujia Village, but what disgraced Major Akiyama was that they didn't even find a corpse of the enemy, or even a single Chinese citizen.

    Angry Major Akiyama once again ordered people to burn this abominable Japanese village to the ground, and then sent a group of people to transport the corpses to the county seat, while he led the main force and continued to advance towards another Chinese village not far away.

    As soon as they left Niujia Village, the troops were attacked again. This time the attack was caused by a landmine. A total of one soldier was killed and two others were slightly injured.

    Major Akiyama has realized that the enemy wants to use this tactic of constant harassment to slow down their attack, and at the same time, it is also constantly consuming the morale of the troops. If the fight continues like this, his troops may be defeated before they reach Jinshan.  The casualties are all over!

    After the troops were attacked by landmines, the cautious Major Akiyama immediately ordered the troops to stop advancing and at the same time sent engineers to clear the mines.

    Sure enough, after the demining troops entered the scene, they quickly dug out two landmines on the side of the roadbed and detonated them one by one, eliminating the danger.

    Major Akiyama nodded with satisfaction, and then asked the demining soldiers to take the lead, using professional mine detection tools to clear the way for the army.

    The ensuing march went much smoother, and these engineers did play a role, digging out more than a dozen landmines on a short stretch of dirt road.

    However, the good times did not last long. Just after the army had moved forward less than three kilometers, the engineers were attacked by snipers from the other side while clearing mines.

    At that time, an engineering team was clearing mines at the entrance of a forest, and the infantry was waiting behind. As soon as the engineers there made a move, everyone heard several rapid gunshots.

    After the gunfire, the engineers who were clearing mines instantly fell to the ground and then became motionless.

    What shocked the Japanese soldiers was that the gunfire just now was very short and urgent. After the gunfire, the engineers fell to the ground almost at the same time, and all of them were shot to the head. This accuracy was far beyond the reach of even the special marksmen in the army.  Not as good as.

    At this time, Major Akiyama could no longer care about his anger. He was so shocked that he was covered in cold sweat.

    Thinking about it, it has only been three and a half hours since he left the county seat today, and his troops have lost more than 280 people, but he did not even see the shadow of the enemy. This battle was really useless.

    After adjusting his mood a little, Major Akiyama immediately called out to the soldiers who were firing indiscriminately, and asked the artillerymen to set up mortars, and then sent engineers again to continue demining.

    The engineers had just taken action. The snipers hiding in the dark moved again. Several more gunshots were fired, and the two engineers who were clearing mines died again.

    Of course, this time the Japanese artillery showed its power. The moment the gunfire rang out, two gunshots were heard. Immediately afterwards, Major Akiyama saw a figure blown up in a pile of rocks 500 meters away.  , after landing, he was carried by several figures and disappeared into the darkness.

    Although the artillery extended its firepower in a timely manner, because the opponent's sniper position was well-chosen and filled with dense trees, it was impossible to see clearly what was going on inside, and the effect of the artillery attack could not be guaranteed at all.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????? ?? But the minefield across the front became a stumbling block, and Major Akiyama had to send engineers again to continue clearing mines.

    There is a 40-kilometer journey from Niujia Village to Jinshan. According to Major Akiyama's estimate, it will take up to eight hours to arrive. This is the speed after burning, killing and looting along the way.

    But in fact, after walking for eight hours, they didn¡¯t evenThe distance of ? has not been traveled.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The farther you go toward Jinshan, the more steep the terrain becomes and the more complex the terrain conditions become.

    It was not until 5 o'clock in the afternoon that the troops reached Majiazhuang, which was still 15 kilometers away from Jinshan.

    Since the sky was getting dark, Major Akiyama did not let the troops march overnight. Today's journey made him realize that the enemy in front of them was far more difficult than they imagined.  Marching during the day is so dangerous, let alone at night.

    So Major Akiyama decided to stay in Majiazhuang for the night before taking action tomorrow. But what he didn¡¯t know was that the special forces controlled the night at night, and this night was destined to be extraordinary!

    Turning back to the southern front, as Li Guoyao expected, the Japanese troops in Peixian County were indeed not enough for a brigade. In fact, the Japanese troops in Peixian County only had 500 people, and including the puppet troops, they were only a little more than 1,000.

    ¡°However, these Japanese and puppet troops have to garrison more than 20 township strongholds in Peixian County, and they must always monitor the resurgence of the national army on Weishan Island. The task is very heavy.

    More importantly, the two brigades of the third column of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps were operating on this front line. Although they were relatively secretive, they often came out to wrestle with the Japs, which caused a lot of pressure on the Japanese army.

    The 12th Army Headquarters obviously knew about this situation, so when it issued the order, it asked the Japanese troops in Caoxian, Fengxian and other places to allocate an infantry squadron to reinforce Peixian. Finally, with the addition of Peixian's troops, they managed to organize an understaffed army.  The infantry brigade went north to cooperate with Chutaro Shimizu's troops.

    The Japanese army on this route had a total of three infantry squadrons, plus an artillery squadron and a machine gun squadron, with a total strength of 821 people. The commander was Taro Watanabe, the captain of the Peixian garrison.

    Watanabe knew that his headquarters did not know the local terrain very well, so he immediately transferred an infantry battalion from the puppet army in Peixian County to coordinate operations. Therefore, the total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops on the southern front was one infantry brigade of Japanese troops plus one battalion of puppet troops.  The army has a total strength of 1,080 people, which can barely be regarded as a complete infantry brigade.

    "However, since this Japanese and puppet army belonged to different battle orders and was completely put together temporarily, its combat effectiveness can be imagined. This is why Li Guoyao asked Li Bing and Zhao Wenshan to attack his army.

    It was just such a miscellaneous group of soldiers who marched toward Jinshan after coming out of Peixian County!

    Because there were puppet troops leading the way, the Japs were still very fast. Of course, this was mainly due to the fact that the Japs dispatched more than 20 large trucks this time, and the baggage and artillery were all carried in cars. The soldiers  All you need to do is move forward with your own personal equipment, which is tantamount to greatly speeding up the marching speed of the little devil.

    Of course, the deliberate release of water by the national army was also an important reason. Unlike Akiyama's troops, Li Guoyao had a very lenient policy towards the Japanese army, letting the troops open the road and not blocking it at all.

    Therefore, at around six o'clock in the evening, the Japs arrived near the Taigong Temple and set up camp on the spot.

    The situation of the Japanese troops in Chengwu County was similar. The troops were progressing smoothly and were not attacked at all. Their speed was unparalleled.

    According to the Japanese commander¡¯s prediction, they would be able to arrive at Jinshan at noon the next day.

    The situation of the Japanese troops in the direction of Jining was not good. Like Akiyama's troops, the troops encountered crazy blockades from the Chinese army along the way. They used cold guns and artillery, as well as various mines and explosive packs. The little Japanese who were beaten hard suffered heavy losses.  After a whole day, we only walked more than 20 kilometers.

    Despite this, the little devil had a good day. The four armies were less than 20 kilometers away from Jinshan, and the encirclement was almost certain, which made Chutaro Shimizu and others quite happy.

    What's more, the elite troops in Chutaro Shimizu's hand have not yet been dispatched, and the balance of victory seems to be leaning towards them!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
