Chapter 759 Enemy Response

The Zhepeng people reacted very quickly. They locked onto Hua Kezhi and his men's positions and immediately launched grenades.

If Hua Kezhi and his men had been a step later, they would have been killed or injured.

Su Yi and Yi Xiantian, who were sneaking in the yard, naturally saw the grenades whistling away with long tails. But at this moment, they had no time to worry about their companions.

After sneaking into the prison guards' living area, the number of Japanese soldiers suddenly increased.

At this time, nearly four minutes had passed since the first shell exploded. Whether they were working or resting, the Japanese soldiers had reacted and all ran to the open space in the yard and dispersed.

There were curses and angry shouts everywhere.

Su Yi and Yi Xiantian hid in the dark and sneaked. They saw the group of Japanese soldiers who had come from the work area before shouting a few words in front of the dormitory building, and then walked around the dormitory building to the back.

Su Yi said nothing and continued to walk quickly through the forest with Yi Xiantian.

When they arrived at the living area, the coverage of green plants was obviously increased, especially there were many evergreen coniferous pine trees planted here, which provided more convenient cover for Su Yi and Yixiantian's stealth.

The two of them moved forward quickly, bypassed the dormitory building from the forest, and then continued to move forward following the noisy sound.

The group of devils who came to "rescue" undoubtedly became the best guide for Su Yi and his team.

Following these ten officers, Su Yi soon saw a small building surrounded by a group of Zhepeng soldiers not far away.

This building is located at the end of the forest, quiet and elegant, and is definitely the best house in this prison.

According to the drawings Su Yi had obtained before, this should have been a forest.

But there is a small building that does not exist on the drawings at all, and it looks very elegant.

Just thinking about it, Su Yi understood what was going on-illegal construction!

This small building that does not exist on the drawings at all is likely to be the residence secretly built by the warden of this prison for himself.

As the highest official in the prison, he didn't want to squeeze into the dormitory building with his men, so he simply chose a place surrounded by forests and built a small villa for himself. There are too many such abuses of power for personal gain these days.

The group of "guides" were stopped outside the small building by the guards Zhe Pengbing, and they were clamoring at the door.

"Is Xi Yisang okay?"

"Is the general awake?"

From the occasional words, Su Yi judged that Xi Yiyi lived in this small building!

This is really not a surprising result!

This small building that does not exist on the drawings is definitely an excellent hiding place, safe and hidden, unknown to the outside world.

Su Yi looked at the small building not far away, and suddenly became excited and expectant!

Because he suddenly realized that a choice he made unintentionally before provided excellent cover and assistance for today's assassination!

That was his choice to bomb the dormitory building with a conscienceless artillery!

In fact, Su Yi did not deliberately bomb the dormitory building. If Su Yi's own intention was followed, he actually wanted to bomb the work area of ​​the headquarters, because according to his judgment and common sense, the Japanese's communication equipment, generators, arsenals and other important facilities and equipment would be set up in the work area.

But Su Yi wanted to sneak into the headquarters from the sewer pipe on the Linghe side, so he naturally had to choose another direction to bomb to divert the Japanese's attention.

He chose the dormitory building because the terrain there was higher, the angle of the explosive package was better, and the most important thing was the wind.

But now, Su Yi suddenly found that his two "precise" shots fell on the dormitory building, which might give the enemy an illusion.

Why was the bombing so accurate? Both shots were aimed at the dormitory building?

The enemy would definitely not think this was a coincidence. They would think that the attacker's target was the dormitory building, and its purpose was to blow up the officers who were sleeping in the headquarters.

They would think that the attacker got the map of the headquarters through some channel, so he locked the dormitory building and carried out precise bombing in the dead of night.

Once they have such a judgment, they will directly rule out the option that the attackers are very familiar with the "internal structure of the headquarters". Otherwise, the attackers should bomb this most valuable small building, because the highest commander of the central route, the commander of the Eighth Division, Xi Yiyi, lives here!

The Japanese will think that the attackers don't know that Xi Yiyi lives here, or even the existence of this small building, and thus judge that the attackers can only carry out long-range attacks outside the headquarters and will never appear inside the headquarters.

The Japanese will never let the attackers go, and they will definitely send troops to hunt down the attackers.

But the troops of the Eighth Division are basically on the front line. The reason why they set up the headquarters here is that they think this is the rear area and very safe.

So only one guard regiment is retained here.

This guard regiment, in addition to the reconnaissance battalion and patrol team scattered on the periphery, also sent out 300 people to guard Beipiao County.

The troops left in the headquarters are only 400 to 500 people.

There are twelve sentries on the four high walls. Each sentry must be equipped with at least a standard combat team. In this way, the sentries on the high walls alone require about 120 people.

There is a company stationed at each of the front and back gates, minus 200 people.

The remaining 100 to 200 people are the troops on duty at various posts within the headquarters and the soldiers on rotation.

If the Japanese send people to chase the sneak attackers, how many people should they send?

At least one company must be sent out.

Where will they send people to pursue?

The first choice must be soldiers who are on rotational leave. If the number is not enough, priority will be given to soldiers on duty in the compound and in non-important positions.

But they will definitely not mobilize the sentries on the high wall and the troops guarding the two gates, because the enemy comes from outside, and these troops must be prepared for attacks from outside at any time!

Because they had made a misjudgment before, they would boldly mobilize the guards in the hospital to chase the attackers.

In this way, the happiest person will be Su Yi!

There were so many Zhe Peng soldiers guarding the yard, which made Su Yi very fearful and headache.

But if his conjecture is correct, then the pressure Su Yi faces will be greatly reduced, and his chance of success in assassinating Nishi Yiichi will also be greatly increased.

The small building in front of me was surrounded by soldiers with guns, as well as officers who came to "escort" them.

Su Yi, who originally planned to fight quickly, suddenly changed his mind.

He decided to wait and see what happened.

Making this decision is undoubtedly a risk, because even though Su Yi and Yixian Tian are careful enough, they will inevitably leave traces. These traces are likely to be discovered by the Zhepeng people.

Once discovered, the Zhepeng people will definitely seal off the entire headquarters and then launch a blanket search. At that time, no matter how powerful Su Yi and Yixian Tian are, they may not be able to escape.

In other words, if Su Yi stayed in the headquarters for a second longer, he would be in greater danger of being exposed.

Although he had to take such a huge risk, Su Yi decided to wait patiently. He believed in his own judgment!

At the same time, in the small building opposite Su Yi.

Nishi Yiichi, who was still wearing pajamas, frowned and was listening to his subordinates' report on the attack on the headquarters.

"The first explosive fell into a room on the second floor of the dormitory building. The explosion caused four staff officers in the room to be shattered on the spot. In addition, the explosion also caused a partial wall collapse, and at least 13 officers were trapped in the collapsed In the room, life and death are currently unknown.”

"The second explosive fell on the corridor on the third floor of the dormitory building. The explosion time was about three minutes apart from the first. At this time, the officers were awakened and had already evacuated from the dormitory building to the yard, so the second explosion The explosion only affected a nearby officer and suffered minor injuries.”

"The damage caused by the two explosions is as above, and there are no other casualties or losses."

"The explosives were fired from the slope to the north. During the second launch, the flames exposed the gangsters' traces. Private Umekawa Uchiku on duty at the No. 2 North post immediately counterattacked with a howitzer after locking the target. After the round of counterattacks, the enemy stopped moving."

"Currently, the guard regiment has sent a reconnaissance team to investigate the explosive launch site. The specific situation has not been reported back yet. The above is the detailed process of the entire incident, Nishi Yi-san!"

Xi Yiyi said coldly: "Two explosives suspected of being explosives were fired from the same direction, instead of shells. What does this mean?"

The subordinate said: "It means they have mastered a device unknown to us that can launch explosive packets."

"Idiot!" Xi Yiyi scolded mercilessly, "This shows that the number of attackers was small and they did not have heavy weapons, so they used some trick."

"Hey! It's me who is stupid, Xi Yisang!" His subordinates hurriedly said respectfully.

Xi Yiyi narrowed his eyes slightly and continued: "The attackers accurately targeted the dormitory building during the two bombings. Their target was very clear and they had mastered the terrain information here in advance. This was definitely a premeditated attack. But if it was It’s a premeditated action, and there are some contradictions in it. Do you know what it is?

The subordinate thought for a while and said cautiously: "They should blow up the computer room and communications department. They just killed a few staff officers and it won't affect anything."

"Idiot! The most valuable person in this headquarters is me! Shouldn't they target me first?" Xi Yiyi said angrily, "Blowing up the computer room and communication equipment will only cause us a little damage at most. It’s troublesome, because we have backup equipment. Anyone who is not a fool would not think of this.”

"Killing a few combat staff officers, as you said, has nothing to do with the overall situation. Only by killing me can it be possible to rewrite the outcome of this war." Nishiyi said coldly, "At least, it will completely change the situation in the middle. The ground changed. But they didn’t do that. They didn’t mean to bomb this small building to kill me. Why?”

"Because they are afraid of Xi Yisang and dare not attack you!" the subordinate said.

"Idiot! Big idiot!" Xi Yi yelled angrily, "This shows that they don't know where I am! They don't even know the existence of this small building!"

"That is to say, their intelligence is not that accurate and thorough. Otherwise, they should bomb this place!"

Having said this, Xi Yiyi smiled coldly: "Their plan stops here. These are just some ground rats in the sewers. They only dare to hide in the dark and dirty sewers and steal some food when the master is not paying attention. Bite something to pinpoint the location. Carrying out precision bombing on the dormitory building is already the limit of what they can do. They only have two chances to project explosives. Once our Yellow Army fights back, they immediately run away in confusion as if they have seen a cat, and they do not dare to do anything. Any counterattack."

The men hurriedly said: "Maybe they have died in the counterattack just now."

"It's possible." Xi Yi nodded.

Just then, a guard came in to report that the soldiers who went out to perform reconnaissance missions had feedback.

Xi Yi waved his hand to let the person reporting in.

"General, we found traces left by the attackers on the slope to the north. We found a gasoline barrel half buried underground. We guessed that this was the device they used to launch explosive packs."

"Gasoline barrel..." Xi Yi sneered, "This further proves my speculation that they are just a group of self-righteous thieves!"

"Yes, they are not worth mentioning!" The subordinates echoed.

"But these thieves caused us casualties!" Xi Yi said grimly, "It takes at least three years to train a qualified combat staff. How much manpower, material resources and financial resources will it cost? These damn rats must pay the price for the losses they caused to the empire!"

"Xi Yi-san, please give your orders!" The subordinates hurriedly said.

"Before tomorrow morning, I want to see the bodies of these daring thieves hanging on the walls of Beipiao!" Xi Yiyi's eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Also, anyone or any organization that dares to provide them with intelligence must pay the price! The warriors of the empire must not sacrifice in vain, and blood debts must be repaid with blood!"

"Hey!"

The subordinate said loudly, and after a pause, he said, "The officers are very concerned about your safety, Xi Yisang. After the explosion, the officers of the staff department came and are now gathered outside the door. They want to see you safe and sound with their own eyes, so that they can feel at ease."

Xi Yiyi couldn't help but smile: "Since they are all here, let's just move up the routine staff meeting tomorrow morning. Please let them all come in. I will hold today's staff meeting in the living room on the first floor."

"Hey!"

The subordinate took the order and left.

After a while, the officers waiting outside the door filed in one after another, and asked Xi Yiyi about his well-being, needless to say.

On the other side, his men went out and immediately put on a capable look, issued orders in an orderly manner, and arranged troops to pursue the attackers.

Just as Su Yi expected, except for the soldiers on rotation, he pulled out all the soldiers from some unimportant posts in the courtyard, and the guard force of the entire courtyard suddenly became lax.
