Chapter 19
"You are Zhu Ziming from Qingfeng Village!" Zhou Weiguo looked Xu Wen up and down and couldn't help but praise: "What you did tonight was so beautiful!"
Xu Wen smiled slightly and said: "The wise brother of Wei Guo personally led the lone army as the rear guard of the entire army. He is extremely brave and admirable."
Fang Shengli stepped forward to interrupt the mutual sympathy between the two, and advised: "Commander, Captain Zhu, this is not the place to talk. The Japs may come back at any time. Let's withdraw first and then talk."
Xu Wen and Zhou Weiguo nodded one after another, and they immediately ordered their respective troops to stop the pursuit and slowly retreated to the position in front of the Pre-First Regiment.
On the battlefield, Xu Wen said to Zhou Weiguo again: "Brother Weiguo, now that the enemy has been defeated, it is a good opportunity for us to retreat. I will lead the rear to provide cover. You and your people can retreat to Kunshan first."
Zhou Weiguo shook his head and refused: "Thank you, Brother Zhu, for your kindness. Weiguo has been ordered to stay here for eight hours. We still have one hour to complete the task, so we cannot retreat for the time being.
In this way, Brother Zhu, you take your people and withdraw first, and I will stop the Japanese for an hour and then withdraw!"
"Now there are only two of our troops in the entire Shanghai area. Once we leave, you will be unable to support us alone. You have to withdraw together. I have decided that the independent brigade will stay and advance and retreat with you." Xu Wen said solemnly.
"Brother Zhu, this..." Zhou Weiguo was deeply surprised. Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xu Wen: "Okay, that's it! When I first saw you, I thought you liked me, brother. Dare you take me with you?"
With such a small amount of people, he can defeat so many little devils, he is a decent man, I am sure to make this kind of friend."
Zhou Weiguo was also a cheerful person. Seeing Xu Wen being like this, he was no longer polite. He immediately stood up in awe and saluted Xu Wen: "Brother Zhu, from now on you and I will be brothers of life and death!"
Xu Wen patted Zhou Weiguo on the shoulder and said, "What an honor!"
Later, Xu Wen quietly took out some of the weapons and ammunition he had just exploded in the battle, saying that they were seized from the Japanese, and gave them to Zhou Weiguo's pre-regiment for free to supplement their battle losses!
The soldiers of the Pre-Regiment were extremely grateful to Xu Wen and everyone in Qingfeng Village.
About an hour later, the Japanese army launched another attack, which was easily defeated by the two forces commanded by Xu Wen and Zhou Weiguo.
The main reason is that Xu Wen and his team have five Panzer IV tanks with powerful firepower and amazing defense, which is equivalent to five more solid fortresses and forts.
The attacking Japs were bombarded by tanks and their flesh and blood were scattered everywhere. In addition, the light and heavy machine guns and submachine guns in the hands of Xu Wen and other soldiers were also very powerful, so the Japs were beaten until they cried for their fathers and mothers, and suffered heavy casualties.
After repelling the Japanese's retaliatory attack, Xu Wen immediately advised Zhou Weiguo to retreat. Seeing that the blocking task had been completed, Zhou Weiguo immediately nodded in agreement.
The two troops merged into one and quietly withdrew from Jiading County under the cover of night, heading towards Kunshan along the Beijing-Shanghai Highway.
On the way to retreat, Xu Wen counted his points. In the blocking battle in Jiading just now, he did not trigger a new mission, but by killing many Japanese, he also exploded more than a dozen rifles and charges, and
Some ammunition.
Therefore, his redemption points currently have a total of 10,000 points left.
It can be exchanged for five heavy machine guns or a batch of submachine guns to supplement the strength of the troops, but Xu Wen was not in a hurry to exchange it because there would be no large-scale battles before retreating to Nanjing.
When they arrive in Nanjing, their two heroic troops will naturally be given priority to be replenished, so these 10,000 points can be reserved for emergencies.
At that time, the Japanese army was mainly busy chasing down the defeated soldiers of the Chinese army and seizing Shanghai and its surrounding areas. Therefore, Xu Wen and Zhou Weiguo's troops successfully withdrew into Kunshan County.
Here, a large number of defeated soldiers, sick and wounded soldiers of the Chinese army gathered.
After the troops entered the city, they stopped to rest in an open space in the city. It was already dawn.
Xu Wen asked Li Wu and others to drive the tank aside and hide it to prevent Japanese air attacks, while he and Zhou Weiguo went to the street against the wall to rest.
Today was a sunny day. They leaned against the wall and smoked cigarettes in the sun, enjoying the rare comfort.
Suddenly, a group of neatly dressed and well-equipped defeated Chinese soldiers came from the south gate, from south to north.
Zhou Weiguo happened to take out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, gave one to Xu Wen, and put one in his mouth. When he felt that there was no fire on his body, he looked up and saw the comrade approaching, so he waved to the runner.
The second lieutenant of the national army at the front shouted: "Brother, stay back! Borrow a fire!"
The leading national army lieutenant was obviously startled, stopped, turned around, took out a match, lit it, and lit it for Zhou Weiguo.
Xu Wen, who was standing behind, saw this scene and suddenly remembered something. He immediately pulled out the gun on his waist and quietly asked the system: "System, are these national troops in front of them Japanese spies?"
The system replied: "Yes."
Xu Wen immediately waved to Li Wu and others not far behind him, and Li Wu and Wu Yongqiang ran over immediately.
He came up behind Xu Wen and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
Xu Wen pointed at the national second lieutenant who was lighting Zhou Weiguo's cigarette in front of him, and the more than 20 national army soldiers behind him, and said solemnly: "These people are not national troops, they are Japanese scouts pretending to be!"
"Ah?" Li Wu and Wu Yongqiang were shocked. Li Wu even asked directly: "Brother, what should we do?"
"Let the brothers copy the guys and keep them for me!" Xu Wen put the cigarette Zhou Weiguo gave him in his mouth, pulled the bolt of the Mauser pistol in his right hand, pushed the bullet and loaded it, and ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Li Wu and Wu Yongqiang happily accepted the order, immediately waved their hands to the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade behind them, and led them towards the group of national troops.
At this time, the fake national army lieutenant had just finished lighting cigarettes for Zhou Weiguo, but Zhou Weiguo had not noticed anything unusual yet.
Xu Wen, Li Wu and others had already led people to surround them. Li Wu and Wu Yongqiang raised their guns with fierce expressions and shouted loudly: "Put down your weapons! Otherwise I will kill you!"
The fake second lieutenant of the national army was shocked and wanted to take out a gun and kidnap Zhou Weiguo, a colonel of the national army in front of him.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Weiguo's skill and reaction speed were much faster than his. He shot out like lightning, grabbed his right hand that had just touched the gun, and twisted it hard. At the same time, his other hand quickly pulled out his own gun and held it against him.
He hit the fake second lieutenant on the forehead and shouted with a cigarette in his mouth: "Brother, don't move."
The fake second lieutenant of the national army saw that he and his subordinates were surrounded by Xu Wen's subordinates who were several times his own and could not take action. In desperation, he immediately shouted in Chinese: "The Central Army is bullying people! They rely on themselves as the Central Army
The army wants to annex us!"
