Chapter 104: Moon 25
The Guard Company soldiers have already erected five tents, and all the military uniforms, military boots, raincoats and other supplies that Jiang Anguo exchanged are inside the tents.
A squad, ten people go in, then strip completely inside and directly choose the right size to change into.
The Lashu Defense Force's two regiments' military uniforms and supplies cost Jiang Anguo just over 30 points, mainly because 1 point can exchange for military uniforms for fifty people, and the other raincoats etc. are very cheap.
Jiang Anguo also sent Transport Vehicles carrying other military uniforms and raincoats to the other two camps.
This heavy rain came too suddenly; Jiang Anguo's own troops all have military backpacks on their backs with raincoats inside, so at the moment it started raining they immediately put on the raincoats.
There was no time for anyone to think; they went in, collected their clothes, changed, and after coming out could receive a cup of ginger tea that must be drunk to dispel the cold.
Otherwise, with this downpour, who knows how many soldiers would catch a cold.
"What is your name?" Jiang Anguo called out to a soldier he saw carrying a dog.
"Sir, I am Luo Dayun," Luo Dayun jogged over.
Jiang Anguo crouched, intending to pat Luo Dayun's black dog, but the dog gave no respect, baring its teeth and trying to bite Jiang Anguo.
"Quiet."
Unexpectedly, after Luo Dayun said that, the black dog instantly quieted down.
Luo Dayun's mind raced; if it bit the officer, would he have to kill his own dog, which is his treasure.
Lu Ning walked over at this moment and said, "Sir, don't underestimate Luo Dayun's dog; he rarely even eats himself yet still feeds the dog, and during the Japanese Army's surprise attack, Luo Dayun's black dog barked the loudest."
"Is that so? This black dog barked when it discovered the Japanese Army, after the Japanese opened fire," Jiang Anguo suddenly had a spark of inspiration.
"Sir, before the Japanese entered the bridge we didn't know what was happening; before the Japanese Army launched the attack, only Luo Dayun's dog was barking," Lu Ning said.
Jiang Anguo nodded; he seemed to have thought of something.
He asked no further and said, "You all get busy first."
Jiang Anguo quietly found an empty spot and immediately asked, "System, does this dog count among the ten thousand people?"
"Host, I don't want to answer that question," the system replied, still being tsundere.
Jiang Anguo opened the system directly, selected the Hunting Dog option, and indeed all the choices were dogs, all very cheap with high cost‑performance.
The Japanese he had just killed, excluding those needed to buy clothing, were enough to purchase seven hundred hunting dogs.
1 point can exchange for one dog.
Jiang Anguo, seeing the system not answer, tried directly; it worked, and ten large black dogs flashing with light appeared before him, and he immediately exchanged for ten German Black Shepherds.
As for why he exchanged German Black Shepherds, whether for combat ability or obedience, the German Black Shepherd is the best dog.
The Japanese Army has Wolf Dog Units, and most of these breeds have German Black Shepherd lineage.
What truly incites anger is that the Japanese use nationals to train these dogs, and many nationals are literally bitten to death by the Japanese Wolf Dog Units.
A dog's nose can smell things beyond five hundred meters; a well‑trained military dog might reach a distance of one kilometer.
The Japanese love to steal chickens and dogs the most, so they are very adept at ambushes; tonight's two attacks are a perfect proof.
When people are sleepy, their sensitivity drops, but dogs do not.
Jiang Anguo exchanged another ten German Black Shepherds, making a total of twenty, stationed at An's Fourth Camp, each company possessing two military dogs.
Military dogs neither take up slots nor cost much.
Moreover, Jiang Anguo observed that these military dogs' teeth are truly sharp; a single bite can almost finish a neck.
April 25, 4 a. m.
Jiang Anguo truly had no drowsiness at all; after being attacked twice in a row by the Japanese Army, he no longer dared to rest, fearing that Japanese artillery would strike again and end his life.
The Japanese Army has already reached this position, indicating they will arrive very soon.
Jiang Anguo also dared not be careless.
"Company Commander Song, I am preparing some Barbed Wire for you; on the bridge, no, across the river as well, we need to enclose it with Barbed Wire," Jiang Anguo exchanged several kilometers of Barbed Wire, which is not ordinary wire but has Barbs on it.
If the Barbs tear you, it is extremely sharp.
The position is a hundred meters from An River; this distance has no cover, so Barbed Wire is the best.
"Little Japan, if you want to attack my position, you must breach the Barbed Wire; then you will be exposed to our sight, one shot each, directly taking them away."
"Commander, do you think we should also collect the vessels along the river?" Song Mengqin said.
Jiang Anguo's steps forward then retreated, nodding, "Company Commander Song, your suggestion is good; all vessels near the river should be retrieved, and we will use some Flyhead Small Benefit to appease, letting these Burmese People come to dig trenches, then send them to Lashu."
"If these Burmese People refuse to cooperate, Company Commander Song, you should know what to do."
Without Jiang Anguo needing to elaborate, Song Mengqin nodded knowingly, a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, and said, "Rest assured, Commander, I know what to do!"
These days, Jiang Anguo has killed hundreds of Burmese People; he feels no pity, as lives are the least valuable thing in war, especially when they are Burmese.
The War of Resistance Against Japan lasted fourteen years in total, with a death toll over thirty million, possibly more; of a forty‑four to fifty‑million population, a tenth were slaughtered by the Japanese, a truly terrifying figure.
Precisely because of this, Jiang Anguo feels no guilt in targeting Burmese People.
These people actually collude with the Japanese; they should regret it, and the Japanese never regard them as humans.
Before dawn, all the corpses on the bridge had been moved away, and their clothes, weapons, and equipment were all stripped off.
It's unknown who was so ruthless to even strip the clothes away!
Only naked corpses remained, and Jiang Anguo didn't have anyone dig pits, but simply threw them across to the opposite side.
Unexpectedly, gradually units from the Temporary 50th Division, the Forty‑ninth Division, and the new Twenty‑eighth Division withdrew.
The number of personnel was still considerable, and Jiang Anguo immediately dispatched people to provide support, to avoid friendly fire.
Upon inquiry, these routed soldiers had retreated after being defeated by the Japanese.
Before battle, Jiang Anguo naturally could not assign these routed soldiers to combat units, as it would affect his own force's combat power; instead, once they gathered enough, he loaded them onto vehicles and sent them directly to Lava.
As for them wanting to retreat back to the interior, that need not be considered for now; Jiang Anguo hasn't planned to withdraw troops, so they cannot leave, and anyone who wants to leave, that's hard to say.
Jiang Anguo's gun in his hand can aim at the enemy, or at his own men!
