Devil's Army

Chapter 560 Ambush the Qinhuangdao Japanese Reinforcements

The special forces squad leader quickly took the Japanese scout back to the village for interrogation.

Li Hongmei and her team had interrogated the Japanese agents in Huludao, and she applied to the squad leader for a jury, who agreed.

At first, the Japanese scout wanted to die and refused to cooperate.

Li Hongmei used the same methods she used to deal with the Japanese agents in Huludao on this Japanese scout.

The two girls who were lying on the crack of the door felt cold on their backs and wanted to vomit. They had never thought that Sister Mei, who was always smiling and amiable, could have such a cruel side.

Li Hongmei picked the nails of the Japanese scout's ten toes and cut off two of his fingers. He finally surrendered.

When the special forces heard from the Japanese scout that he had an accomplice scouting outside Qingshangou, they immediately sent troops to search for him.

However, the other Japanese scout had already taken advantage of the chaos to escape back to Jianchang County.

By interrogating the Japanese scout, the squad leader obtained an important piece of information, that is, the Japanese squad leader in Jianchang County requested reinforcements from his superiors. The superiors have agreed to send a squadron to Jianchang County.

But he didn't know when they would arrive. However, he also told the squadron leader that this squadron of Japanese troops would arrive at Jianchang County from Qinhuangdao via Qinglong County.

The information was quickly delivered to the Jackal and the Gray Wolf.

The Jackal and the Gray Wolf had a consensus that they must not allow this Japanese squadron to enter Jianchang County. Otherwise, the difficulty of retaking Jianchang County would increase significantly.

Gray Wolf immediately gave the order: the two teams stationed in the bandit nest in Daqingshan should immediately join forces with the team in Qingshangou and the women's special forces team to set up an ambush on the route that the Japanese reinforcements must take, and he would immediately send a large force to reinforce them.

Since there was a gap of more than a day between the capture and interrogation of the Japanese scouts and the Japanese's agreement to send reinforcements, the Japanese might already be on the way.

Without further ado, the two teams from Daqingshan met up with the special forces from Qingshangou and set out immediately to set up an ambush on the road from Qinglong County to Jianchang County.

The twenty or so new recruits also requested to participate in the mission, but were rejected by the squad leader. Their military qualities were far from meeting the requirements for going to the battlefield.

However, in order not to dampen their enthusiasm, the team leader still gave them a task, which was to patrol and defend Qingshangou.

The special forces members didn't say anything more. After sorting out the ammunition, they set off immediately.

Since they were unfamiliar with the road conditions and terrain, the special forces members brought two new recruits to act as guides.

They searched along the way from Jianchang County to Qinglong County and looked for a suitable ambush site.

From Jianchang County to Qinglong County, the mountains along the way are steep, with rugged rocks and lush trees.

The special forces finally chose a place called Laohuangcheng in Lugou Township as the ambush site.

The special forces did not encounter any Japanese reinforcements along the way, which means that the Japanese reinforcements should not have arrived yet.

The next step is to wait patiently.

Gray Wolf also sent two squadrons of special forces and Flying Dragons to rush over.

Two of the squads entered the former bandit nest of Hu Erye in Daqing Mountain, and the other squadron rushed to the old imperial city at full speed.

However, the main force of the Gray Wolf had just arrived at the Daqing Mountains, and the two teams had just separated from the main force. When they entered the Daqing Mountains, the ambush by Li Hongmei and her team officially began.

Moreover, the intelligence provided by the Japanese scouts was wrong. The Japanese reinforcements were not a squadron, but a squadron of infantry and a reinforced squad of artillery.

The Japanese in Qinhuangdao had never fought against the Devil's Army, and they regarded the Devil's Army as an ordinary Chinese army, so they were very arrogant and looked down on others.

They treated this reinforcement operation as a cross-county tour and chatted and laughed all the way.

When they arrived at the old imperial city, they were ambushed by an army and were thrown into disarray for a moment.

Under the command of the squadron leader, they finally stabilized their position and began to counterattack the special forces of the First Army that were ambushed on both sides of the Old Imperial City.

The Japanese artillery squad behind them immediately set up their guns and began bombing both sides of the old imperial city.

Although the special forces were well-trained, they were also human beings. Under the intensive bombardment of the Japanese artillery, casualties continued to rise.

The team leader was extremely anxious when he saw the situation.

They were originally a special forces team that performed special tasks, but now they were treated as ordinary troops to fight positional warfare. But there was no other way, there were no other troops nearby. The army needed them, the country needed them, and they had to stand up without hesitation. This was the mission of the Chinese soldiers!

The Japanese artillery bombarded the army that was blocking their way to Jianchang County.

The special forces team that intercepted the Japanese team suffered heavy casualties, and the casualties were still rising.

Lacking artillery, the squad leader had no choice but to send a telegram to the Jackal, informing him of their current predicament and asking where the reinforcements had arrived.

At this time, the special forces had blocked the Japanese reinforcements from Qinhuangdao for more than an hour.

Because the road was rocky and difficult to walk on, the large army advanced slowly.

Jackal calculated the distance and estimated that they could reach the outskirts of Jianchang County earlier than the Japanese reinforcements and block the Japanese reinforcements' road to Jianchang County. He then asked the team leader to open a gap appropriately to let a group of Japanese soldiers pass through.
