For safety reasons, Ueno Kame suggested that Itagaki Seishiro transfer to the Jiujiang Pier because the dock was protected by the Marine Corps and the terrain of the dock was easy to defend and difficult to attack. If necessary, Itagaki Seishiro could also be transferred to the Navy's If you go on the gunboat and leave the shore at any time, your safety is still guaranteed.
However, Ueno Guifu didn't know that there were three Langya ambushing on the Jiujiang Wharf beach at this time, and one of them was the founder of the Langya Army - Xu Rui! If Itagaki Seishiro really listened to Ueno Kame's suggestion and moved the headquarters to Jiujiang Pier at this time, he would be really seeking death!
With Xu Rui's character, once he discovers the high-value target Seishiro Itagaki, he will definitely kill him quickly even if he risks his own life. What's more, Xu Rui may not risk his life. When he assassinated Neji Okamura, Xu Rui was in an almost certain death situation, but didn't he survive it in the end
However, Seishiro Itagaki, an old devil, should not die.
idiot! Ueno Kameguo's suggestion not only failed to earn Itagaki Seishiro's appreciation, but instead received a slap in the face.
Itagaki Seishiro slapped Kame Ueno across the face, glared at him and shouted: "As a commander, if you run away and retreat when encountering danger, will this army still have combat effectiveness?"
"Hai!" Ueno Kamefu suddenly put his feet back and bowed.
"Order!" Itagaki Seishiro groaned and said in a ferocious voice, "All personnel in the headquarters are ready for battle. If necessary, join the battle with the garrison!"
"Hai!" Ueno Kamefu nodded heavily, turned around and motioned for the messenger to go forward and convey the order.
Itagaki Seishiro's order was quickly conveyed, and the Japs in Jiujiang City immediately took action. At this time, there were about one infantry brigade left in the garrison in Jiujiang City, but even if there was only one brigade left, compared to the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army, It still occupies an absolute advantage in military strength, which is where Seishiro Itagaki's confidence lies.
However, the Japanese army needed to defend the entire Jiujiang, so dividing the force seemed weak.
After issuing two orders in succession, Itagaki Seishiro immediately issued a third order, ordering the defenders of the East City, South City, and West City to move closer to the North City to strengthen the defense of the North City neighborhood where the headquarters is located. Itagaki Seishiro This is They would rather let the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army go into the city to fight in the streets, but also protect the safety of the headquarters.
Therefore, Itagaki, the old devil, actually still cares about his own safety.
Of course, Itagaki Seishiro did this to trap the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army in Jiujiang City and buy enough time for the Japanese army to encircle Jiujiang from the outside.
Ueno Kamehao thought for a moment and then asked: "Your Excellency, Commander, if the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army is preparing to attack Jiujiang, then they must be hiding in the woods outside the city at this moment. Why not find them?"
"What happens after you find them?" Itagaki Seishiro asked with a frown, "Surround them and annihilate them?"
Ueno Kameguo immediately fell silent again. Indeed, there was only one infantry brigade left in Jiujiang's garrison at this time. Even if the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army was found hiding, it would be hard to say that they would win, and it would be absolutely impossible to annihilate them all. , if one is not careful, he may suffer a big defeat and put Commander Itagaki in danger!
If Commander Itagaki is defeated in Jiujiang again, the Japanese army will be humiliated!
This time, Xu Rui led the Sichuan army to attack Jiujiang for the third time. He was probably desperate. If the Japanese army went out of the city to fight, their wish was granted. Therefore, the Japanese army could not leave the city.
Itagaki Seishiro added: "Order the garrison to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside. The purpose of loosening the outside is to confuse the enemy, so that the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army will misjudge the imperial army and will not attack immediately, because the longer it takes, the more likely it will be to the imperial army." The more advantageous it is, the internal tightening is to step up the investigation of the killer ditch Xu Rui has reserved in Jiujiang City."
Itagaki Seishiro firmly believed that if Xu Rui dared to lead the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army to attack Jiujiang three times, he must have something to rely on! Because although Xu Rui likes to win in danger, he is not a reckless person. If he is not certain, he will never lead the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army to fight a losing battle with no chance of winning!
"Hai!" Ueno Kamefu paused heavily and turned around.
Itagaki Seishiro issued several consecutive orders, which immediately put great pressure on Zuanshan Leopard.
Zhuanshan Leopard has found the detonator, but after pressing the detonator, there was no response!
When I opened the detonator and checked, I found that everything was normal. It was either a fault with the detonator or a wiring problem. This could cost Zhuanshanbao his life! This is because when the lines were originally buried, the lines were buried very deep to prevent the Japanese from discovering them, so Zuanshan Leopard had to dig out the lines piece by piece and then inspect them one by one.
Moreover, during the inspection process, we had to avoid Japanese patrols, so the progress of the inspection was very slow. Nearly an hour had passed since Zuanshan Leopard entered the city, but Zuanshan Leopard only inspected less than 100 meters. line, and what’s more terrible is that the fault has not yet been found!
(Dividing line)
Outside Jiujiang City, in the southeast corner.
Time passed little by little, and anxiety began to pervade the army.
In particular, the more than 100 soldiers of the security brigade under Gou Ligui have become restless. The veterans of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army are relatively good, but there is also a feeling of uneasiness among them.
Leng Tiefeng looked calm, but in fact he began to feel uneasy.
If everything goes well, then the Mountain Leopard will be able to detonate the explosive in ten minutes at most!
Even if the little devils in the city are heavily guarded, the mountain leopard will definitely be able to detonate the explosives within a quarter of an hour at most!
But now more than two hours have passed, and the two thousand kilograms of explosives that were previously buried have not yet detonated! This can only mean one problem, something happened!
As for what exactly happened, it's hard to say.
A possibly buried explosive was discovered and had been destroyed by the Japs!
Another possibility is that there is a problem with the fuse or detonator, and Zhuanshanbao is undergoing maintenance.
In addition, there is another possibility that something happened to Zhuanshan Leopard, and he was injured or sacrificed. However, this possibility is extremely small, because from the time Zhuanshan Leopard entered the city until now, there has been no gunfire in the city, not to mention whether there are still people in Jiujiang City. Even if there were Japanese special forces, they would not be able to kill the mountain leopard silently.
Leng Tiefeng could not determine which possibility it was, but no matter which one it was, it was not good news for the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army, because as time went by, the possibility of the Japanese judging their intentions was becoming Getting higher and higher, once the Japanese figure out their intentions, the battle will be over.
Han Feng came over and said, "Captain, how about I go in and take a look?"
Leng Tiefeng shook his head, because whether it was the first possibility or the second possibility, it would not help if Han Feng went there, but it would exponentially increase the possibility of exposure! Both Han Feng and Zuan Shanbao have good skills, but no matter how good their skills are, there is still the possibility of exposing the target. If the two of them act, statistically speaking, the possibility of exposure will increase exponentially!
Han Feng said in a deep voice: "Captain, we can't wait any longer, otherwise the captain and the others will be in danger!"
Looking at his watch, Leng Tiefeng said in a deep voice: "Wait another ten minutes. In ten minutes, whether the leopard succeeds or not, we will attack on time!"
Han Feng was silent.
(Dividing line)
Han Feng's worries are not unnecessary. At this time, Xu Rui, the Siberian tiger and Xiao Taohong are facing huge danger!
Because it was already past eight o'clock in the morning, the sky was already bright, and the dock was starting to become busy. Although Xu Rui and the other three were disguised very realistically, and because they were wearing tactical cloaks, they looked just like the rocks on the riverside. , but as the sun gradually rises, the risk of exposure begins to multiply.
Because the cloaks of Xu Rui and others are painted with black silt, which will dry out and turn white after being exposed to the sun. At this time, there will be a difference from the rocks on the riverside. Even if ordinary people see the difference, they will not notice it. What kind of reaction, but if they meet someone who has studied this, Xu Rui and the three of them will immediately fall into a situation of death!
For example, if Junsi Oluhara happened to be here and found three whitish and cracked rocks on the river beach, he would immediately realize that they were disguised by the special forces. However, he would only need to quietly mobilize a few machine guns to block the river beach. , Xu Rui and the three of them will definitely die, because they have nowhere to hide on the river beach, and they can't run away. The waist-deep mud will become a fatal obstacle!
Therefore, Xu Rui and the three of them are facing huge danger at this time, and the wisest thing to do is to evacuate the river beach as soon as possible.
But if we evacuate the river beach at this time, it means that the operation has failed, because even if the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army succeeds, occupies Jiujiang North City again, and lays down the pier, it will face a desperate situation without a boat. Without a ferry, it will If we can't cross the river or the Yangtze River, the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army and the Jiujiang Guard Brigade will be completely destroyed!
And this is definitely not the result Xu Rui wants. What he wants is to lead this army to break out!
Time is passing bit by bit, and the risk of exposing the target is increasing sharply. What should we do
Xiao Taohong lost her temper and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, why don't the captain and the others take action?"
The environmental noise on the Yangtze River was extremely noisy, and the dock was also extremely noisy, so Xiao Taohong was not worried that the Japanese would hear the conversation between her and Xu Rui.
The Siberian tiger on the other side said in a deep voice: "It stands to reason that the veterans should have arrived outside Jiujiang City as early as two hours ago. Under normal circumstances, they should have taken action as soon as they arrived, but until now there has been no There is a movement, there is an accident, I don’t know what it is? But there must be no problem with the explosives!"
Xiao Taohong made a soft noise and said, "What if something goes wrong with the explosives?"
"Soldiers will block it, water will flood the soil, that's it." Xu Rui snorted and said, "Wait another ten minutes. In ten minutes, whether the veterans take action or not, we have to take action!" (To be continued.) )
