Snow Leopard: Building the Strongest Elite Group through Robbery

Chapter 163 The scapegoat

How can we strike a balance between these two?

Zhou Weiguo didn't understand and asked, "How are you going to take this issue into consideration?"

Ono chuckled and pointed to the location of the 36th Brigade. "It's not that complicated. It's just a matter of two poison gas bombs."

"No one used it." Fang Shengli exclaimed.

Ono clicked his tongue; "Who cares if he uses it or not? We have it, why not use it? And it can also give them an illusion that we have plenty of poison gas bombs. What is this called? This is called intimidation. It's just to tell them one thing: next time you use poison gas bombs, be careful, because I really have them."

"You still seem to be making sense. I don't even want to make a battle plan." Zhou Weiguo threw away his pencil and looked at the people present; "If you have any objections, don't bother us."

Do you have any other opinions? Ono has already said this, especially the last thing. Tell them that we still have this thing. This is actually a deterrent.

"Then let's act. We will set out at night and head for the Sichuan Army's defense line. Also, let the Sichuan Army launch an attack after we arrive to cover our arrival.

Using artillery alone is not an effective method. Having been fooled twice, the Japanese army cannot be fooled again, so they have to try another approach.

Fang Shengli nodded beside him; "Later, I will go to the Sichuan Army in person and explain the situation to them."

If I can beat you to death once, I can beat you to death a second time, this is Zhou Weiguo's idea.

As for Ono's idea, it was even simpler. The Sixth Division had learned its lesson, and this time they had prepared a lot of good things for the 36th Brigade. If they could poison those bastards to death, those things would be ours.

Yes, it belongs to our independent regiment, no one can take it away.

At the 36th Brigade's forward command post, the previous brigade commander, Ushijima Mitsuru, died in battle, and Major General Amedaka took over the position.

His mission was to rebuild the fighting confidence of the 36th Brigade and also to let the higher-ups know that the last time the 36th Brigade headquarters was destroyed by the enemy, it was an accident.

After taking office, he used his connections to obtain more equipment for the 36th Brigade, and even had a tank battalion directly transferred to him from the division. Under his leadership, this force has once again regained its former glory.

Whether attacking the Wu-Fu Line or advancing into the Xi-Cheng Line, they demonstrated extraordinary performance. After launching the attack on Nanjing, they became the vanguard of the division, clearing roads through mountains and building bridges across rivers.

This time, the 36th Brigade broke through to the enemy's rear. Facing them in the rain was a division of the Gui army and a brigade of the Sichuan army. He was confident that he could defeat the enemy.

Of course, this was not his purpose. His purpose was to defeat this place and then quickly advance to the southwest, cut off the retreat route of the brigade's archenemy, the 74th Army, and annihilate it in this area.

In this way, the shame of the 36th Brigade will officially end.

"Your Excellency the Brigade Commander, the Sichuan Army is mobilizing troops to the front, and I'm afraid they will launch an attack on us." Chief of Staff Kuroki came up to him and pointed to the Sichuan Army position in the distance.

attack?

Yuzhong laughed and looked up at the sky. "They don't have the ability to attack, but I think they still have the ability to launch a sneak attack."

Sneak attack?

Hei Mu thought for a moment; "Could they be planning a surprise attack at night?"

"The Sichuan Army just likes to steal and do bad things. This is not the first time they have done this."

Kuroki nodded. "Your Excellency the Brigade Commander is right. Then I will have the troops in the front ready for defense."

"Let them prepare. Remember, do not leave the fortifications. Our troops are not for them. Our target is the 74th Army. They are our opponents."

The time to avenge the previous shame is just around the corner. If we don't wipe out his 74th Army, 36th Brigade and Division this time, we will never be able to overcome this hurdle.

"Your Excellency the Brigade Commander is right. This time, we must let them know how powerful we are."

Yu Zhong believes that he has this ability.

Of course, he believed that if he defeated the 74th Army, his rank would go up, because the 74th Army had caused too much harm to everyone, and whoever defeated them would definitely be promoted and would be received by His Majesty. And he was the closest to this opportunity.

He will give it his all.

The Sichuan Army launched an artillery attack at night, using the few artillery pieces and mortars they had at the Japanese positions.

Fang Shengli saw that Brigade Commander Wang's face darkened every time there was an explosion. He knew very well that artillery was the lifeblood of the Sichuan Army.

Today, in order to cover the independent regiment's tanks, they used all their resources.

"Old Wang, don't worry. After we defeat the 36th Brigade, I promise I will give you two infantry guns and mortars. I swear, by then, your brigade will be transformed from an old hen into a duck."

The thirty-something Brigade Commander Wang turned his head and looked at Fang Shengli, wailing, "Why are you still a duck? That's a brigade, and you only have one regiment, how can you fight like that?"

He didn't believe that the independent regiment could defeat the enemy, but this was an order from above and he had no choice but to carry it out.

Fang Shengli thought to himself, you don’t know how the independent regiment fights. If you knew how the independent regiment fights, maybe you wouldn’t say this.

The Sichuan Army fired artillery shells, and the Guangxi Army nearby did not understand the situation, so they immediately launched an attack.

This undoubtedly made Yu Zhong believe that the other party had guessed right and they were really planning a sneak attack.

A night attack ended in half an hour because all the tanks of the independent regiment arrived at the front line.

Zhou Weiguo brought several battalion commanders to the Sichuan Army Brigade Command.

After meeting with Brigade Commander Wang, Zhou Weiguo said with a smile, "Brigade Commander Wang, please take your troops and evacuate."

Evacuate?

I want to launch a night attack and let the independent regiment come up, not to evacuate down. This guy wants me to be court-martialed.

"You want me to be court-martialed?" If you evacuate without permission, you will be shot.

Although the Sichuan Army is called double-gun soldiers, they are also brave.

How could he evacuate at this moment?

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Xiao Ye knew that Zhou Weiguo's words made people unhappy, so he jumped out and said to Brigade Commander Wang with a smile, "That's not what we, Old Zhou, meant, Brigade Commander Wang."

"So what do you mean?" asked Brigade Commander Wang with a frown.

Xiao Ye coughed, glanced at Zhou Weiguo, then waved his hand slightly, and Chen Ning quickly took a box and put it on the table.

Ono went over and opened it himself, revealing seven or eight shells inside.

He took Brigade Commander Wang to the artillery shells and pointed at them. "This is the poison gas bomb sent by the army headquarters. We need to use it to kill them."

What?

Zhou Weiguo was also confused. He glanced at Fang Shengli and suddenly found that Fang Shengli seemed to be as confused as he was.

What does this have to do with the army headquarters?
