Chapter 389 We can’t take even the slightest risk now, otherwise if something goes wrong it will be
Watanabe Jun'ichi, who was hiding in the dark, cursed in his heart, but launching a surprise attack at this time would not achieve much result at all. Li Yunlong never came out of the tank. He was like a turtle, speaking through the iron loudspeaker on the tank, leaving him no chance to attack.
Junichi Watanabe gently pulled Wang Dafu's clothes, and Wang Dafu immediately understood what he meant. He laughed and replied, "Captain, you have to have someone send us food and water. We didn't eat anything at noon, so we have to have a good meal in the evening!"
Li Yunlong said, "Wang Dafu, patrol the perimeter carefully. I will give you a great credit when I return. Be careful when patrolling and pay attention to the road ahead. Don't run into an armored vehicle again. You may not be so lucky next time!"
Wang Dafu was driving a three-wheeled motorcycle and used the cover of darkness to sneak up on the armored vehicle. However, before he could succeed, he was discovered by the armored vehicle driver. The only good news was that he did not arouse suspicion.
Soon someone brought food and water. Wang Dafu immediately took them and put them in the bed of the three-wheeled motorcycle. He led the remaining 12 three-wheeled motorcycles to the outskirts of the team. Everything was so calm and no accidents happened.
Li Yunlong looked outside through the tank's observation hole and found nothing suspicious. He immediately contacted Zhao Gang and Lin Zhenhua, holding the intercom in his hand and asked with a grim expression: "Old Zhao, I just sent those people away. What's going on? Why didn't you let Wang Dafu and the others come back?"
Lin Zhenhua's voice rang out from the intercom: "Old Li, don't you feel that what happened today is a little strange? The three-wheeled motorcycle patrol team is very far away from us. It would take an hour for all of them to get there. But they caught up with us as soon as we arrived at Xiaozhang Village. This is totally out of character. I always feel that there is something strange about this. We'd better be careful."
"If I really wronged them, I will apologize to them in front of everyone after returning to the base. Don't think I'm suspicious. We are escorting more than 8000 civilians. We can't afford to make the slightest mistake, otherwise it will bring very terrible consequences!"
Zhao Gang also echoed, "Old Li, we have to put the overall situation first. When formulating the escort plan, why did we only put the armored forces at the outermost edge? It is because the Japanese have no ability to seize our armored vehicles and tanks. This can minimize the risk. And our three-wheeled motorcycles are completely open-topped. If they are suddenly attacked by the Japanese special forces, the Japanese can easily succeed and then make a fake one to infiltrate the inner circle of our team."
"At that time, there is no need to shoot at the civilians. Just firing a few shots into the sky will cause large-scale chaos. Many civilians will be crushed and trampled to death in the dark. It will also seriously threaten the safety of the escort team. It's almost like blowing up a camp. The most terrifying thing is that even if we want to catch all these devils, it will not be easy to do it even in the dark of night. This matter cannot tolerate any carelessness, otherwise, if something goes wrong, it will be a big deal."
It’s not that Li Yunlong hadn’t thought about this before, but he trusted his brothers very much and forgot that there were many Japanese spies and inner ghosts hidden in the independent regiment, and Wang Dafu was one of them.
"Lao Zhao, college students, you reminded me very timely. I almost made a big mistake this time. The Japanese have carried out many assassinations in our base before, and we haven't completely eliminated the traitors and spies until now. We really need to be careful, otherwise it is very likely to cause a big accident!"
Li Yunlong ended the call with the two people, quickly adjusted the combat deployment, and adopted the 321 deployment method to strengthen the troops' outer defense.
After Wang Dafu took Jun'ichi Watanabe away, there was a look of fear on his face. He thought he had been exposed and Li Yunlong had discovered the clue. Fortunately, it was all his unnecessary worries. He safely retreated from Li Yunlong, but his back was still covered in cold sweat.
"Your Excellency Lieutenant Colonel, what should we do next? Li Yunlong ordered me to lead the men to be responsible for the outermost patrol, which means he wants to completely exclude me. I think we can't find a machine to act tonight, so we can try again tomorrow!" Wang Dafu suggested cautiously.
Jun'ichi Watanabe angrily cursed, "Wang Dafu, you idiot, only eight people from your patrol team survived, and you eight are intelligence officers planted by the empire. The patrol team has been wiped out by us. It's dark and we can't see clearly, so it's not easy to be discovered. But when daybreak comes, it will be easy for us to be exposed, and then we won't even have a chance to escape. The time of action must not be changed. We must launch a night attack tonight to cause chaos within the enemy. Only in this way can we complete the task assigned by Mr. Dasaku!"
"It's still early, there's no need to rush. Let's just patrol the periphery and lie dormant for now, waiting for the right opportunity. We must not attract Li Yunlong's attention now, just like we do on weekdays. Don't make any unnecessary moves. If we really can't find an opportunity, then we'll launch a night attack at 1 a.m. No matter how much it costs, we must rush into the inner circle and cause large-scale chaos within the enemy!"
Junichi Watanabe was like a poisonous snake in the dark, spitting out his tongue, looking for the right opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the independent regiment. Li Yunlong also felt a slight uneasiness, and he mobilized the forces of an armored company, slowly spreading towards the direction of the three-wheeled motorcycle patrol team, and as long as Junichi Watanabe dared to take action, he would resolutely eliminate him.
There were only three people on the tank that Li Yunlong was riding in, a tank driver, a telegraph operator, and Li Yunlong himself, so there was plenty of space. The telegraph operator called Lin Zhenhua again, and soon the two sides were in touch.
"College student, you were right to be cautious before. I also felt a slight sense of crisis. We must not panic at this time. I have arranged an armored company to slowly approach the three-wheeled motorcycle patrol team, and used another armored company to defend the inner circle. The remaining two armored companies will protect the team and continue to move forward. You kid, be careful later. Don't jump up and down after the fight. Stay in the communication command vehicle honestly, don't run around!"
Lin Zhenhua rolled his eyes in annoyance and did not refute Li Yunlong's good intention. He also knew that he was a burden on the battlefield. He could give some advice, but if he really had to fight the Japanese, unless he was extremely lucky, an ordinary Japanese soldier would be able to kill him without leaving a single piece of armor.
Lin Zhenhua knew that Li Yunlong must have something else to say, but he was too lazy to listen and directly handed the communicator to Zhao Gang who was observing the situation outside. Zhao Gang took the communicator in front of him, put it to his mouth, and asked curiously: "Old Li, I didn't hear a word of what you were saying just now!"
Li Yunlong was a little unhappy for a moment, and wanted to vent his anger by talking to Lin Zhenhua. Suddenly, he heard Zhao Gang's voice, and said with a laugh: "Old Zhao, I was just looking for you! You have to let the brothers be on guard. I estimate that the devils will launch a night attack soon. After hearing the sound of gunfire, the people will definitely panic. At this time, you, Old Zhao, will come out to stabilize the situation. It is best to separate the people at this time, and separate them one company at a time. Even if there are devil spies mixed in, the chaos can be quickly quelled!"
Zhao Gang had been prepared for this matter, and replied seriously: "Old Li, before you came, I had already completed the formation of the civilians. A leader was selected for every 50 people, and a squad of soldiers was assigned to protect them. Now the only problem is the group of civilians you brought. I have sent a battalion of troops to divert them to ensure the safety of the civilians. You can rest assured!"
"All troops strictly follow the password identification I mentioned. If they find someone giving the wrong password, they will shoot immediately. Last night, we used this trick to eliminate all the troublemakers in the team and maintained peace for a day. I will definitely not be soft-hearted at this time. When dealing with the enemies of our independent regiment, I can only feel at ease if we eliminate them all. Don't worry that I am too soft-hearted!"
The worry on Li Yunlong's face also disappeared. He was afraid that Zhao Gang could not make up his mind. There was no room for hesitation at this time, otherwise more people would die. If he did not make a decision, he would suffer the consequences. Only iron-blooded means could deter those villains.
"Lao Zhao, I don't have much to say. The later it gets, the more dangerous it will be. Let the brothers eat all the chocolates. The bitter taste can refresh you. Don't be confused at this time. Let the brothers open their eyes wide and don't miss any suspicious spots. As long as you feel danger, just shoot. Let's shoot first. Let the people get used to the sound of gunfire first, so that they won't hear it suddenly in the middle of the night and run around in panic. That will only hurt others and themselves."
During the following night's march, the sound of gunfire could be heard from time to time, which made Watanabe Jun'ichi blush. He had not expected that Li Yunlong would be so insidious and cunning, trying to make his night attack fail in this way.
The civilians who were protected in the inner circle were a little nervous when they heard the gunfire at first, but they had received the news in advance, and they became braver. They listened to the gunfire coming from the outer circle, whispered to each other, and their fears were reduced. The team became more lively, and from time to time, people could hear people cursing the devils...
