Chapter 429 Reunion
Chapter 429 Reunion
It’s three o’clock in the night.
In the suburbs of Qingpu, Shanghai, there is a dense wild forest.
Ye Feng, with brigade commanders Zhou Qingshan and Hong Bing, regiment commanders Song Yu and Liang Long, and a battalion of 800 people, were lurking in secret.
Each soldier carried a lot of equipment and rations. They did not light a fire at night and did not make a sound. They all waited here silently.
"Report, we have completed the search within 15 miles and have not encountered a single Japanese spy."
Several scouts returned, and one of them said, "In the southeast, we have already contacted the Fourth Army troops coming to support Shanghai. Scout Lao Huang is leading the way for Commander Ye and his men, and they are heading towards us."
Have you met Commander Ye and the support troops he leads?
Everyone present was excited, even Ye Feng couldn't help but breathe faster. This was normal. To everyone, Commander Ye was their idol. Of course, they were filled with excitement when they saw the legendary high-spirited vanguard general of the Northern Expedition.
Zhou Qingshan, who served as the brigade commander, asked, "How many troops did Commander Ye bring this time?"
The scout replied, "There are about 3000 people, a full regiment, but their weapons and equipment are relatively backward, and many of their soldiers are pale and thin, and malnourished."
Hong Bing also asked, "What is Commander Ye's health condition?"
The scout said, "It's similar to the soldiers. Because they often sleep outdoors and have a shortage of food, General Ye looks very bad. In addition, he has been running long distances for many days and has not gotten enough sleep. General Ye's eyes are bloodshot and he looks very haggard."
This time when Ye Feng came to provide support, he was worried about the health of the soldiers who were providing support, so he brought a lot of extra supplies with him.
"Captain Song, take a squad and set out in secret in the 7 o'clock direction. There is a small earthen slope about three kilometers away. Go and kill the lurking Japanese spies. Remember, try not to shoot."
Ye Feng's sharp eyes continued to scan the surrounding terrain. Looking at the dark mountains and fields, he said:
"Captain Liang, you also take a squad and head to the 2 o'clock direction. There should be five Japanese spies there."
"Commander Zhou, take a company with you and go meet Commander Ye to help carry the wounded."
"Brigade Commander Hong, you are responsible for clearing all the Japanese spies lying in ambush on both sides of the road from here to Woniu Mountain."
As Ye Feng gave the order, the soldiers began to take action one by one.
Half an hour later.
Zhou Qingshan came over with three dusty men. The one in the middle looked exhausted, but between his brows, one could still see the powerful and sharp gaze that once dominated the party. This was General Ye, a famous general of the party organization.
"Commander Ye..."
Ye Feng immediately ran up, raised his head and chest, saluted properly, and said solemnly:
"Independent Reorganization Division, Division Commander Ye Feng, please give instructions, Chief."
Hahaha……
After returning the salute, Commander Ye couldn't help but burst out laughing. "You kid, you're still trying to play this trick on me? Come on, you're the Monkey King who's causing trouble in Shanghai now, you're very capable, don't play this trick on me."
"I heard you brought a lot of food. It's just right. My soldiers are starving. I said if we give them a cow, they can eat it right away."
"After we have eaten and drunk enough, we two Ye will have a good chat."
Commander Ye is forty-three years old this year and has already entered middle age. He is both Ye Feng's superior and can be considered Ye Feng's elder.
Sitting down with his back against a big tree, the soldiers brought by Ye Feng began to distribute food and water one by one. The team of thousands of people was very quiet in the night, which showed that this army had strict discipline.
Ye Feng sat down next to Commander Ye, handed him a portion of beef jerky, bread and water, and said with emotion:
"Commander Ye, now that you are here, Shanghai will be bright again!"
"You don't know, during this period, I couldn't sleep all night. The pressure was too great."
"The Japanese are so restless. They have lost two divisions, but they still won't give up. This time they are assembling a large army of more than 10 mechanized troops. And the Jinling Airport near Shanghai is said to be full of bombers, so many that they are just waiting to take off and drop bombs on us. And the Japanese First Fleet disappeared in Southeast Asia. It's easy to guess that this fleet has already headed north and will attack Shanghai at any time."
"We have 2 people and we have to fight against 10 elite Japanese soldiers. It's simply hell-level difficulty!"
"And the terrain of Shanghai is all flat and there is no strategic location to defend. It's difficult, difficult, difficult!"
After hearing Ye Feng shout the word "difficult" three times in a row, Commander Ye couldn't help laughing again, "I can't believe that you, a nationally famous super agent, Commander Ye who once destroyed a Japanese fleet single-handedly, would also be sentimental one day." As for Ye Feng's abilities, even though Commander Ye was very far away, he had heard a lot about Ye Feng. In Commander Ye's opinion, Ye Feng not only had terrifying individual combat power, but he was also accomplished in military command and strategic planning of corps operations. Ordinary generals could never compare to Ye Feng's level.
"Stop complaining, kid!"
Commander Ye continued, "The more you talk, the more it proves that you already have a plan in mind, right?"
Ye Feng couldn't help but give a thumbs up and flattered him, "As expected of you, Commander Ye. Nothing can escape your sharp eyes."
Commander Ye said, "According to previous front-line battles, if we want to resist the 10 elite Japanese troops, our Shenzhou troops must mobilize at least 40 people, or even more, to have the strength to fight."
"We don't have the advantage in terms of troop numbers."
"In terms of weapons and equipment, firepower output, we are also at a disadvantage."
"In terms of soldiers' combat proficiency, the Japanese still have an advantage."
"If we add the unfavorable terrain of Shanghai, we will be lagging behind in every aspect. This battle will be difficult to win!"
Ye Feng said, "In ancient times, fighting a war depended on the right time, right place, and right people. This era is different. As long as the grand strategy is well done and the marching plan is well arranged, it is still possible to defeat the strong with the weak when the enemy is at a disadvantage."
Commander Ye asked curiously, "Tell me, how did you plan this battle?"
Ye Feng said, "For the Japanese army, there is no other good way but to fight head-on. The Japanese air force is now assembled at Jinling Airport. We can send troops to raid thousands of miles away and blow up enemy planes. As for the Japanese navy, we also control a fleet and can barely engage in artillery battles with the enemy at sea."
Commander Ye said, "Four Japanese army divisions, all of them are elite troops. I guess you are going to take a risk again this time, right?"
Ye Feng nodded and whispered, "Water and fire attacks have been used in the previous two wars. The Japanese will definitely be well prepared, so this time, I plan to use the "poison gas bomb" developed by the Japanese themselves."
As soon as these words came out.
Commander Ye couldn't help but straighten his body and said worriedly, "Weapons that destroy humanity can kill the enemy but also hurt yourself. If used improperly, it may cause unimaginable consequences. Have you considered these?"
Ye Feng said, "So we need to lead the Japanese army to one place."
This battlefield is the best.
It is high on the four sides and low in the middle, so that the billowing poisonous smoke rising after the gas bomb explodes will not dissipate immediately.
A devastating smokestorm was enough to wipe out 10 Japanese troops.
