Chapter 412: What is the Use of Corpses?
From the moment he made the siege plan, Hu Biao never thought of annihilating all the little devils in the city. If you are too greedy, you will lose more than you gain. Even if the task force is very elite, in terms of numbers, it is still much less than the little devils in the city.
If you really want to force the little devils in the city too hard, the task force that is responsible for the main attack task is afraid that there will be a lot of casualties. For Hu Biao, who is a commander, the situation he does not want to see, the purpose of the three-sided encirclement is to let the little devil see the hope of escape.
Under the onslaught of the special first company, the Japanese army responsible for guarding the south of the city was the first to collapse. As a result, the rest of the Japanese army in the city began to retreat in the direction of the north of the city. During the pursuit, Hu Biao also asked the combat team members not to approach too closely.
Follow behind the little devil and use your own weapon advantage to continuously consume the strength of the fleeing Japanese army. Even if there will be little devils who escape from Luzhou City, these little devils will still face the fate of being surrounded and suppressed by the guerrillas.
The guerrillas that have been rearmed are undoubtedly much more effective than they were earlier. In addition, the guerrillas are familiar with the surrounding terrain, and there are more people than the little devils who scattered and fled. Under the siege and interception, there should not be many little devils who can escape.
Knowing that the little devils began to flee from Luzhou City, Hu Biao quickly said: "Order all combat detachments, mainly persecute when attacking, and drive the little devils in the city away first." Explain to the platoon commanders and pay attention to the casualties of their own troops! ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
For some of the veteran players, they all know that Hu Biao cares about the casualties of the players. Even if a combat company was expanded this time, as far as these combat team members were concerned, they knew that Hu Biao still felt that the team was not large enough.
Moreover, it does take a lot of effort to train a cooperative combat team. In addition, they are all veterans of the Snow Shame Battalion, and they all have won Hu Biao's trust. If it were someone else, I was afraid that Hu Biao would not put so much effort into cultivation and training.
After receiving the operational instructions conveyed by Hu Biao, the combat platoons responsible for the main attack also began to adjust their combat methods. Using firepower and the constantly captured Japanese grenades, they forced the remaining Japanese troops to retreat to the north of the city.
The guerrillas who cooperated with the operation also felt very excited when they entered the city one after another. In the eyes of these guerrillas, the city of Luzhou was also the capital of Anhui Province, and after falling to the Japanese army, they did not expect to recover it.
However, today, they followed behind the task force and miraculously recovered the city of Luzhou. Even if this recovery was only temporary, the officers and men of the guerrillas still felt a deep honor and pride.
Looking at the little devils who fled for their lives, many officers and soldiers of the guerrillas also became more and more brave as they fought, and shouted excitedly: "Comrades, recover Luzhou City and encircle and annihilate the little devils." Keep your eyes wide open and take out all those little devils who are hiding! ”
Stimulated by the great victory, these guerrilla officers and men of average combat level also burst out with extremely strong enthusiasm for combat. In the face of the guerrillas who began to walk through the streets and alleys, Hu Biao also realized that he had to increase control and supervision.
If you continue like this, there may be misunderstandings. Therefore, the guerrilla commanders were immediately informed and told to gather their troops. Divide the search area accordingly, and prohibit the guerrillas from crossing the area to search or pursue the remnants of the enemy.
On the other hand, on the side of the task force, in addition to sending a sniper team to cooperate with the reconnaissance team and follow the pursuit of the fleeing little devils, Hu Biao began to let people take over the material warehouses in the city that had not yet been destroyed. For Hu Biao, the next step is to accept the fruits of victory.
Prior to this, Hu Biao still asked each combat platoon to gather the wounded fighters together. On this expedition, Hu Biao also recruited some hygienists from the cave hospital and asked them to provide simple battlefield care for the wounded soldiers.
As for the serious injuries, Hu Biao will also treat these fighters accordingly according to the corresponding situation. In a word, if there is a glimmer of hope, Hu Biao will find a way to save these team members. Even if you are disabled by injury, it is better than sacrifice!
Contingent members who are disabled by injuries can serve as recruit instructors when they return to the camp at Camp Shame. Don't look at the crippled hands and feet of these fighters, but their combat experience can save recruits from many detours.
Upon learning that the task force had begun to clean up the battlefield, many guerrilla leaders also muttered, "Why don't we let people clean up the battlefield too?" ”
"No one wanted the guns and ammunition that were left behind earlier. Now that people are cleaning up the battlefield, it's hard for us to grab it, right? ”
"There are so many places in this city, there are always people they don't go, right? Why don't we ask? ”
For these guerrilla leaders, they also knew that the materials and booty that could be captured in the next city must be extremely rich. It's just that they really didn't contribute much in this battle, and it was not easy to compete with the task force.
While these guerrilla leaders were discussing, Tian Tiezhu, who was acting as a liaison officer, appeared again and said: "Captains, the leader of our detachment asked me to inform you that except for the place where we are guarding the duty, I would like you to search other places.
Also, to be on the safe side, he wants you to prepare early. You'd better find a way to get the supplies, weapons and ammunition you seized tonight out of the city before dawn. Otherwise, if you want to transport supplies after dawn, it will be more troublesome! ”
The guerrilla leaders also understood the meaning of these words. There are places that the task force has sent people to guard, and they can't go and rob them. Where there are no task forces, these partisan leaders are left to search. In other words, looting.
It is clear that the guerrillas want to expand and develop behind enemy lines, and in many cases they can only rely on battlefield captures. If the city of Luzhou is large, even if the Japanese army has not been stationed for a long time, Hu Biao believes that there are still many things that are worth packing and taking away by the guerrillas.
As for the warehouses and important targets controlled by the task force, they will be handed over to the guerrillas if they were to be searched and counted by the task force, and the materials that cannot be used or taken away will be handed over to the guerrillas. Before that, Hu Biao did not want to clash with the guerrillas because of the spoils of war.
The so-called wealth moves people's hearts, and the more times like this, the more we must maintain a calm attitude. As for the seizure of some less loot, it is nothing in Hu Biao's opinion. As long as there is a battle to be fought, he does not have to worry about the problem of the task force making up for it.
Except for a small amount of weapons and ammunition, it was not possible to obtain supplies from the Japanese army. The vast majority of the weapons equipped by the task force were used by the Japanese army. This also means that as long as the little devils are constantly eliminated, the task force will be able to fight with war.
In the face of Hu Biao's decision, the guerrilla leaders who cooperated with the operation did not feel that there was anything wrong. Tonight, it is the task force that can take Luzhou City, and it is the task force that really contributes. At the end of the day, they're still coming to pick up the benefits.
Now that the task force has given up a lot of benefits, if they are not satisfied, then it seems too greedy to be a human being!
After arranging the treatment of the wounded, Hu Biao took the inseparable guard platoon to the garrison headquarters that had been extinguished. Looking at the ruins in front of him, Hu Biao had a slight headache and said: "It seems that the power of our cannonballs is really not small!" ”
"Large-caliber heavy artillery, the power of shells is naturally extraordinary. Otherwise, we won't be able to take the commander of the little devil in one pot. Detachment leader, what now? Do you need to clean up this ruin? ”
Raising his hand and looking at his watch, Hu Biao still nodded and said, "Time should still come!" On the side of the barracks warehouse, I checked before, but I didn't find any valuable loot. Not surprisingly, something of value should be in these ruins.
Arrange the team and start cleaning up the ruins. If the intact adjutant's body is dug up, it is carried out. These corpses are of little use to us, but I'm sure there are a lot of people who like them. It's good to use as a gift! ”
Giving gifts with corpses?
This way of giving gifts still puzzled Qin Tianyou and others. But they all know that compared with the evaluation of the combat merits of the task force, many anti-Japanese troops of the national army are more keen on picking up corpses. The adjutant of the little devil is equivalent to the colonel of the national army!
As Hu Biao ordered the cleaning up of the garrison headquarters that had become a ruin, the bodies of the adjutant officers who had been killed earlier began to be exhumed one after another. To Hu Biao's delight, in this ruin, the combat team members quickly dug up the collapsed warehouse.
Looking at the gold, silver and jewels that were being cleaned up one after another, all the team members knew that their detachment leader liked this kind of loot the most. Fortunately, the team members all know that the reason why Hu Biao likes these gold, silver and jewelry is more for the development of the army.
With the continuous expansion of the size of the troops commanded by Hu Biao, there is also a lot of military pay that needs to be paid every month. In addition, Hu Biao has successively purchased weapons, equipment and materials from outside, so it doesn't cost money?
The more money captured, the faster the army will develop. In these years, if you want to feed an army, it is still easy to have problems without abundant funds to back it up. If you can't even eat enough on your stomach, how can you expect your subordinates to be loyal?
By the time the task force cleared the garrison headquarters that had been reduced to ruins, the valuable loot was packed into boxes. As for those things that have little value, they are naturally abandoned. The bodies that were cleaned up were also ordered by Hu Biao to be cremated.
Even if it is abandoned here, the little devils who will return to the future will also deal with it. But in Hu Biao's opinion, now that these bodies are cremated, it will be difficult to know where those little devils died when the little devils count the war damage in the future.
Thinking of the period of the Anti-Japanese War, those unknown martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country, their relatives have been looking for and waiting. Hu Biao felt that this kind of pain should also be tasted by the little devils. Let them know what the consequences of provoking a war will be.
Returning to the little devil barracks that had also been cleaned up, looking at the materials that had been loaded one after another, Hu Biao, who took over the list of supplies, quickly said: "There is not much time until dawn, notify the troops, leave Luzhou City before dawn!" ”
"Yes! And what about the partisans? ”
"They're the head snakes, so it's okay to leave later! Even if the little devils rush to reinforcements, it will be difficult to get here in a short time. Leave all the supplies we have left behind to the guerrillas. Let's leave the aftermath alone! ”
"Understood!"
Thinking that the task force would leave Luzhou next, Hu Biao once again asked the guerrilla leaders to be found. Inform the guerrillas that all the materials that were cleared out but could not be taken away were handed over to the guerrillas. Looking at those supplies, these guerrilla leaders also smiled.
With the capture of Luzhou City in this battle, the strength of these guerrillas will be rapidly improved after returning to the base area. With the strength, when they encounter little devils in the future, they finally don't have to worry about having no power to fight back!
