After all, Meng Jiemin is only a few years older than Liu Cheng, and in his opinion, Liu Cheng is just a teenager who matures relatively early and has a certain talent for fighting, so he is not always on guard like Zhang Zhenguo.

So Meng Jiemin did not hide this matter from Liu Cheng, and also asked for his opinion.

Liu Cheng has this battle in his memory, and after seeing Song Zhimin and knowing his identity, he thought of the battle in history where Meng Jiemin united with the "Song Battalion" and thousands of people to counterattack the rock.

Although the battle was remembered as a success, there is no detailed information about the casualties of the side.

But you don't have to think about it to know that this is bound to be a tragic victory!

At noon on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Song Zhimin, together with the village chiefs of the two villages and Meng Jiemin, carefully studied the entire plan, and finally decided to attack from all sides at the same time.

The Song battalion and the guerrillas attacked from the east and west gates, while the people of the two villages entered the county town of Panshi through the ruined city walls from the north and south.

Although they had an absolute advantage in numbers, Liu Cheng was worried about the casualties of the people.

They don't have guns in their hands, they rely entirely on people, and they will inevitably pay a rather heavy price.

Meng Jiemin ordered Liu Cheng and Li Erniu to lead more than 500 people into the city from the south, and Pu Hao and Zhang Tiezhu to lead another 500 people into the city from the north.

As for the specific coordination after the start of the battle, it is up to them to decide.

Two hours later, Liu Cheng met with the villagers.

Although the number of more than 500 people sounded a bit bluffing, when he really saw these people, Liu Cheng's heart suddenly felt sad.

Almost one-third of them are over 50 years old, young adults between 20 and 50 years old are all skinny, and there are even 60 or 70 teenage children.

Although in Liu Cheng's opinion, these people did not have the ability to fight at all, their faces were full of determination, and even the faces of those children did not have a trace of fear.

Although Liu Cheng couldn't bear it in his heart, he knew that this was war, and this was the price that needed to be paid in the early stage of resistance!

If you want to take weapons from the enemy and arm yourself, you have to start from this state.

Liu Cheng has no time to be lonely and sad, what he can do is to teach these people the most basic battlefield survival skills in the shortest possible time.

He divided the people, excluding the children, into nine equal groups, with an equal mix of old people, women, and young men, so that they could move at roughly the same pace.

The sixty or seventy children were grouped individually and led by him.

The first thing Liu Cheng taught everyone was not to panic when they heard the gunshots, immediately lower their bodies, and quickly find a hidden object that could resist bullets to ensure their own safety.

The second is that everyone must be scattered, not gathered together, and not give the devils a chance to concentrate on strafing.

Finally, there are the means of attack.

Liu Cheng asked everyone to find at least five branches with a diameter of no less than four centimeters and a length of no less than one and a half meters, sharpen one end, and teach them the essentials of throwing.

This primitive javelin is the only way Liu Cheng can think of to reach the target of long-range attacks, but in such a short period of time, how much everyone can master it, and what kind of effect it can have when really throwing an attack, it depends on luck.

Another point is that in order to achieve the effect, this method must be thrown in groups, focusing on the same target in small groups to be effective.

It was getting dark, and everyone was at their designated location.

Song Zhimin was the last to arrive, and his face was still painted, obviously there was a conflict.

There were fifty or sixty soldiers who rebelled with him, and they had not only weapons in their hands, but also two machine guns.

At this time, Liu Cheng's heart that had been hanging finally let go a little, and he knew very well in his heart that if there were no such people, tonight's action would inevitably end in failure.

"Horn!"

After a crisp gunshot, everyone immediately launched an attack and rushed towards the city of Panshi County.

Liu Cheng carried nine javelins on his back, held the crossbow, and rushed to the front with those children, and was the first to rush into the county seat.

Although Yokoji Matsuo didn't get the news in advance, he reacted immediately when he heard the gunshot.

With the gendarmerie as the center, he had three detachments defend the east, west, and north directions, and personally led people to guard the south.

Although there are only more than 50 devils in the gendarmerie, there are nearly 100 of them plus the traitors and dogs collected by Matsuo Yokoji after he came to the rock, and they all have guns in their hands!

Although Yokoji Matsuo is not as scheming as Ono, his ability to command the battle is not bad, and he made the most effective deployment at the first time.

First of all, he did not disperse his forces, but concentrated around the gendarmerie, and reported the incident to Nomura as soon as possible.

Now, as long as Yokoji Matsuo can hold on to the gendarmerie and hold out until reinforcements arrive, he will be able to completely wipe out this reactionary force and the people!

The first time Liu Cheng entered the city, he saw through Matsuo Yokoji's intentions.

By narrowing the defensive circle in this way, he undoubtedly put his side in a dilemma.

If you force an attack, it will inevitably lead to a dense situation of personnel.

The devil has a machine gun in his hand, and he doesn't even need precise aiming to inflict great casualties on these civilians.

But if you retreat, it will be a waste of all your efforts, and when the devil's reinforcements arrive, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Meng Jiemin and Song Zhimin also saw Matsuo Yokoji's intentions, although they had formulated corresponding countermeasures in advance, but the implementation was not satisfactory.

First of all, there is a big gap in the combat effectiveness of the two sides, and the shooting accuracy of the Japanese soldiers is far greater than that of the soldiers of the Song battalion and the guerrillas, and the closer the distance is, the greater the casualties, but if the distance is far, it will not be able to strike effectively at all, and it can only be a waste of bullets.

At the critical moment, Meng Jiemin stood up from the bunker and shouted to the people behind him:

"Comrades! For victory, follow me! ”

The attacks from the east and west did put some pressure on the devils, and there were casualties, but the casualties on the side of the guerrillas and the common people were even greater, far more than ten times that of the devils, especially those who held the kind of farm tools as weapons.

There was still a distance of nearly 100 meters between the two sides, and the casualties on the civilian side exceeded 100 people.

In such a situation, there is no complete strategy at all, but to grit your teeth and move forward, otherwise, what awaits them will be an even more heavy price!
