Chapter 104: German Weaponry 87th Division Reinforcements Relieve The Defense
Zhou Weiguo and Chen Yi never dreamed that they would be rescued by a batch of elite German-equipped troops, and that those Japanese Marine Corps who had routed Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun and the remaining soldiers of the 19th Route Army under him, who had already fixed bayonets, would be completely annihilated.
Looking at the battlefield in front of him, with batches of Japanese Marines’ corpses lying scattered across the smoke-filled ground, Zhou Weiguo’s mood was extremely shocked.
“Are you Zhou Weiguo?”
Just as Zhou Weiguo was deeply shocked,
Company Commander Chen Weihua of the German-equipped troops also walked up to Zhou Weiguo, whom he had rescued, and inquired.
“Ah! Yes! Officer!”
“Thank you very much for saving us!”
Hearing this, Zhou Weiguo came back to his senses and thanked him with a smile.
“You don’t need to thank us. You should thank your cousin Zhou Wenhua!”
“It was he who had us come to rescue you!”
“Alright, the battle here is now over, and the 19th Route Army’s reinforcement troops are also about to arrive here, so we need to leave immediately!”
“Please follow us and leave right now!”
“Because we need to ensure you can get home!”
Company Commander Chen Weihua said sharply to Zhou Weiguo.
“Mm! Thank you!”
“By the way, may I ask why my cousin had you come to save me?”
“Where is he now?”
Hearing this, Zhou Weiguo thanked him again.
At the same time, he was extremely shocked in his heart that these German-equipped troops, with excellent weaponry and killing Japanese Marines as easily as chopping vegetables, were actually dispatched by his cousin Zhou Wenhua, who had recently been focusing more on business.
“I’m not clear on that. Contact him after you get home!”
“After we escort you, we still have combat missions!”
“Please follow us and leave immediately!”
Company Commander Chen Weihua responded calmly.
“Good! Thank you!”
Zhou Weiguo thanked him for the third time.
Then he took Chen Yi’s hand and followed these German-equipped troops to leave together.
Meanwhile, Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun also walked over as they left and expressed his thanks.
Then, he watched Zhou Weiguo leave together with these German-equipped troops.
“Where exactly did these troops come from?”
“Their weaponry is so excellent, and they look a lot like the four German-equipped troops recently formed by the Central Army. Could they be their troops?”
After Zhou Weiguo left,
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun muttered to himself with a face full of confusion.
“Battalion Commander! Our reinforcements have arrived. They want to see you and take over the defense from you!”
At this moment,
Soldier Wang Wenhuan under Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun also hurriedly ran up to him,
pointing to the reinforcement troops behind, all uniformly equipped with German weaponry, and reported.
Hearing this,
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun immediately turned around to observe those incoming German-equipped reinforcement troops.
He saw these German-equipped troops rapidly taking over the defense of their battlefield, with light and heavy machine gun troops and mortar troops quickly occupying advantageous positions and strongpoints, ready to guard against incoming Japanese troops at any time.
These German-equipped troops not only had excellent morale,
but their military bearing was only slightly inferior to that of the German-equipped clone troops who had just escorted Zhou Weiguo away.
Seeing this,
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun immediately showed a brilliant smile and went to exchange and hand over the defense with those incoming German-equipped 87th Division troops.
