Chapter 54: Surrounding the Transport Squadron Flying Corps

  Liu Feng is a man from the 21st century. At that time, in Afghanistan, Liu Feng led a small team to raid an East Turkestan training base without considering the issue of ammunition at all. And after the US received intelligence that its archenemy Liu Feng had appeared in Afghanistan, it even dispatched flying gunboats to bombard Liu Feng wildly, also without considering the issue of ammunition at all.

  By the time of the Anti-Japanese War, because the Japanese devils and Liu Feng's fighting methods differed by more than half a century, Liu Feng had always been relatively smooth sailing, and ammunition problems had never troubled him. However, the Eighth Route Army was different, as it did not have its own weapons industry and could not manufacture weapons, at most only reloading bullets. The vast majority of ammunition could only rely on capture. Therefore, the Eighth Route Army's fighting method could only be to fire five bullets and then charge, using bayonets to solve problems.

  Liu Feng's tactical thinking and Commander Pei's tactical thinking were not on the same level, so neither of them was convinced by the other. After Commander Pei finished yelling, Liu Feng also refused to back down, shouting: "This way of fighting is irresponsible, with too great a sacrifice! Is it necessary to sacrifice so many soldiers for these few little devils? You still have so many artillery shells and grenades, why not use them?"

  "Pei Fangqi's voice was even louder than Liu Feng's, and he roared: "Liu Feng, you don't understand war at all! If we use up everything, what will we do if there is a combat mission tomorrow? What can we fight against the fully armed Japanese devils with? At that time, would it make you happy to let the little devils wipe out the 223rd Regiment?"

  Two men were arguing with red faces and thick necks when Chen Zhi-kui, the newly arrived political commissar, rushed up to separate them, saying: "I say, comrades, we seem to have won a victory. Why are you acting like we've lost? The little devils still have one battalion left. Let's take it down with one blow and annihilate the entire Autumn Mountain Brigade. The anti-Japanese situation in this area will be greatly improved. How can you two still find time to quarrel?"

  Liu Feng said: "Leave this battalion to us, the shock troops. Your 223rd Regiment has just been through a big battle and needs to rest. I guarantee that not one of our men will die in annihilating this enemy battalion."

  "Your assault troops have been fighting continuously for many days, with rich results. You should take a rest now. This battle will be handed over to our 223rd Regiment. I don't dare say we won't suffer any casualties, but our casualty ratio will definitely be very low."

  Liu Feng said: "No way, your fighting method causes too many casualties. Let us do it instead."

  "What's going on? Can your special forces even handle this? These little devils don't need your special forces' help at all!" Pei Fangqi glared and said.

  "Two of you, two of you. I think it's better for the two of you to join forces and fight together. This way, we can easily destroy the Japanese devils' squadron and reduce casualties. What do you think?"

  Chen Zhi-kui is the political commissar of the assault team. He has been watching Liu Feng win many victories and being lectured by him for a long time, so naturally he leans towards Liu Feng in his heart. However, Pei Fang-qi is the regiment commander of the regular army of the Eighth Route Army and an old revolutionary as well. Pei Fang-qi's qualifications are not something that Liu Feng can match. Moreover, Pei Fang-qi's casualty rate in today's battle is indeed a very excellent achievement for the Eighth Route Army to fight against the Japanese army head-on. Therefore, Chen Zhi-kui can only mediate and smooth things over in between.

  The two finally agreed to surround the last squadron of the devils together.

  Nakamura squadron is a transport squadron. Although it's just a transport squadron, its combat effectiveness is not weak. The combat effectiveness of the Japanese devils in this era is quite strong. The usual task of the transport squadron is to be responsible for the logistics transportation of the entire battalion, but its training is no weaker than that of other devils.

  However, this squadron transported the entire regiment's ammunition supply, so it had a large number of vehicles and horses. Their marching speed was not fast. Soon on the evening of the second day, the 223rd Regiment surrounded Nakamura Squadron. After learning that they were surrounded, Nakamura Squadron immediately built a circular array with vehicles and horses to resist the attack of the Eighth Route Army.

  Liu Feng said to Pei Fangqi, "Commander Pei, since we are fighting together, we must cooperate well. This is a transportation squadron that has transported a large amount of ammunition. Our mission is to completely capture the ammunition in this squadron and alleviate the shortage of ammunition for the Eighth Route Army. So I ask you not to rush into battle after just a few shots. Otherwise, the little devils will definitely blow up all the ammunition, and we won't get anything."

  Pei Fangqi snorted, but didn't object, knowing that Liu Feng was right.

  Seeing Pei Fangqi did not object, Liu Feng continued: "Our raid team has 16 snipers, divided into 16 directions to launch an attack on the little devils. Although the little devils have built a circular array, our snipers can still hit them. As for the puppet army inside, it can be ignored."

  "You mean we're just here to watch the excitement?" Pei Fangqi said discontentedly.

  Liu Feng said: "How can that be? Wait until our snipers have fully suppressed the little devils, then it's time for the 223rd Regiment to charge. At that time, the puppet army will only have the privilege of surrendering."

  Bai Fangqi had never seen a commando team in action before, only heard about it, so he also wanted to see how the commando team fought today. Although dissatisfied, he still agreed.

  Bai Fangqi ordered the 223rd Regiment to surround but not attack.

  Liu Feng then dispersed the 16 snipers in 16 directions, and Liu Feng shouted loudly with "Ming Xin Jing": "I am Liu Feng, you have been surrounded. The Little Devils' Qiushan Brigade has only this one transport battalion left so far. All other Little Devils have been eliminated. Puppet army brothers, you are Chinese, I don't like killing Chinese people, so when we fight later, I hope you will be careful. Don't really die for the Little Devils. Do you understand?

  In the circular encirclement of Nakamura's detachment, there were more than 240 puppet soldiers and 150 little devils. Originally, there were nearly 200 little devils and more than 300 puppet soldiers, but for so many days, Liu Feng's snipers had been sticking to Nakamura's detachment like a thorn in the flesh. So only 150 little devils were left, and although not many puppet soldiers were killed, surprisingly, over 100 escaped, leaving only more than 200 puppet soldiers.

  Those pseudo-soldiers who were lying on the ground heard that it was Liu Feng, the killing god. He actually eliminated all of the Autumn Mountain troops? You know that when the Autumn Mountain troops set out, there were over 3,000 little devils and pseudo-soldiers combined! In just a few days' time? They've been completely wiped out? And only these few hundred people are left?

  My goodness, what a waste of effort! If it weren't for the little devils watching from behind, these fake soldiers would have surrendered with just one word from Liu Feng. Now, although they haven't surrendered, they're thinking about how to save their lives when the Eighth Route Army arrives. It's impossible for them to play a useful role.
