Chapter 393: You're Captured!
The battle plan of using the material convoy to lure the guerrillas to attack was known to only a few Japanese commanders of the Japanese puppet army stationed in Chucheng. Even in order to ensure that the news is not leaked, all the people involved in the battle are all little devils.
In the past, the puppet army would be sent to be cannon fodder when there was an action, but tonight it was quiet. In the opinion of the Japanese garrison officer in Chucheng, as long as the guerrillas really ambushed the material convoy, then the guerrillas would be unable to escape tonight.
The garrison officer who waited patiently in the city for the good news did not know that the encirclement and suppression troops he sent had become the guns of the task force at this moment. Even the uninvited task force had already set off for Chucheng.
In addition to Hu Biao and his entourage, dozens of miles away from Chucheng, a main force of the Fourth Detachment of the New Fourth Army was rushing to Chucheng under the stars. In order to save time for physical gain, the main regiment did not even carry much supplies and ammunition.
Even on the way to the hurried march, the chief of staff of the main regiment was still a little worried: "Regiment commander, let's rush to Chucheng like this, if something happens on the road, we're afraid that we won't have much strength to fight back, right?" ”
"This is a combat order directly issued by the head of the military department, if we don't advance lightly, it will be difficult for us to arrive at Chucheng on time. If we really miss the battle to recover Chucheng, when the leaders will be held accountable, will we bear it?
What's more, although we didn't bring heavy weapons, we did bring a lot of bullets. If we really encounter a small group of little devils, we still have the strength to fight back. Ordered the troops to hurry up, and the comrades of the guerrillas should come to meet them! ”
After receiving the combat order conveyed by the military headquarters at a higher level, this main force regiment still did not dare to slack off. The most important thing is that this main commander knows very well that once someone can capture Chucheng for them, it will also be extremely beneficial to them.
If they want to develop and grow in Chucheng, they must make a name for themselves. What's more famous than recovering Chucheng? Even if they can't hold Chucheng, if they can control it for a short time, it will also greatly boost morale.
With this fame, plus the captured materials, weapons and ammunition, the strength of their main regiment can also be rapidly improved. Behind enemy lines, what if the commander didn't want his troops to grow?
Regarding the acceleration of the main force, Hu Biao did not care much when he received the telegram sent by the other party. In Hu Biao's view, when this main force arrived in Chucheng, he believed that the battle should be over. The two sides may not even meet.
Arriving at the highway only three miles away from Chucheng, Tian Tiezhu, who was in charge of driving, soon saw the scout who was responsible for transmitting the information, and sent Hu Biao, who was sitting in the cab, a warning map drawn by the reconnaissance detachment.
Knowing that this place was not far from Chucheng, Hu Biao thought for a while and said, "Inform the troops, rest for half an hour before acting!" ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
With the news of the cavalry, the already exhausted puppet army, as well as the walking guerrillas, also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. On the other hand, the fighters disguised as Japanese soldiers did not use much physical strength because they rode in a car.
Even on the way by car, many fighters leaned on the carport and squinted for a while. Even if the car is very bumpy, it still consumes less physical strength than walking, and squinting can restore a lot of physical strength and energy.
Although some guerrillas felt that it was unfair, in the eyes of Qin Zhen and others, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this. The reason is simple, the task of their guerrillas is very simple, that is, to wait for the battle to start and take over the city defenses.
The rest of the fighting in the city did not need to involve the guerrillas. This also means that the guerrillas are coming to pick up the credit. Even if the task force could not take Chucheng, the guerrillas would not have any losses, and they would not have to undertake the task of attacking.
Since the guerrillas have no combat mission, isn't it normal to work a little harder and walk more? Isn't it possible to let all the guerrillas ride in a car, and the officers and men of the task force walk collectively, and then let the task force attack and kill the enemy, right?
In the process of the team resting, Hu Biao called the scouts on horseback, and after giving them an explanation, the scouts rode away again. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hu Biao called Qin Zhen, the guerrilla leader, over again.
Spread out the city defense map drawn by Xu Sandao and said: "Captain Qin, there are only about three miles left from Chucheng at this moment, and once you arrive at the city gate, the battle will start at any time." The task of your guerrillas is to take over the defense of the city gates.
When the battle starts, you are responsible for taking care of the captured puppet army, and you do not have to participate in the subsequent attack. Only one thing, before I and my troops come out, you have to make sure that the gates are not lost. You should be able to do that, right? ”
"Captain Hu, although our combat effectiveness may be inferior to your troops. But there are a lot of Japanese puppet troops stationed in the city, if you don't mind, I can still draw some troops to support you in the battle! ”
"Thank you! In fact, the offensive and defensive battles in the city, I'm afraid you are not very familiar with and good at it. If I can get such a detailed map of Chucheng, you should understand that I still have troops lurking into Chucheng in advance.
This also means that when the battle at the city gate begins, the rest of my troops will also be in the city to meet them. In order to avoid misunderstanding, it is best for you to stay at the gates. If you really need it, I will send someone to inform you at any time to help! ”
Hearing that Hu Biao really didn't need him to send troops to support, Qin Zhen didn't say anything more. But in my heart, I became more interested in this team. He was also very curious about how many troops there were in this army under Hu Biao!
Being able to reconnoiter the deployment of Chucheng tonight in such a short period of time is enough to show that Hu Biao's subordinates have extremely strong reconnaissance capabilities. Even such a raid mission, I'm afraid that Hu Biao should have done it no less than once!
Taking advantage of the half-hour rest before entering the city, Hu Biao adjusted the combat arrangement again. With the deployment map provided by Xu Sandao, the follow-up assaults on the city by various units also appear to be more targeted, so that they will not have to look for attack targets after entering the city.
As soon as the time for rest came, Hu Biao, who came to the front of the car again, said in a timely manner: "Board the car, go!" ”
Those puppet soldiers who felt that they had not rested enough, got up again and said, "I have to leave again, how long have I been resting?" ”
"Can't walk? Do you want to give you a complete break? Don't want to go, you can stay! ”
In the face of the complaints of these puppet soldiers, the combat team members who pretended to be captives replied coldly. These puppet soldiers who originally complained instantly shut up and even hurriedly apologized. They know what it means to rest completely!
As the convoy appeared in front of the city gate of Chucheng, the puppet army responsible for guarding the city felt somewhat surprised. The Japanese soldiers who accompanied them on duty ordered very quickly: "Baga! Hurry up and open the gates, the warriors need to enter the city! ”
"Yes, Taijun!"
I knew that in the evening, there were many cars and troops out of the city. Although it was very late now, the convoy turned back to the city to rest. The torches hanging at the head of the castle can also be seen next to the convoy.
Many puppet soldiers standing at the gate of the city waiting, looking at the 'captives' who were escorted in the ranks, said with a little surprise: "Captured a lot of prisoners!" Could it be the partisans? When Taijun went out of the city before, was it to encircle and suppress the guerrillas? ”
"Who knows! Looking at it this way, there should have been a lot of prisoners. These guerrillas are really unlucky! ”
"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense about some things, let Taijun hear it, there will definitely be no good fruit for you to eat! ”
As far as some puppet soldiers are concerned, they hate the guerrillas for always making trouble for them. But some people still think that these guerrillas dare to confront the little devils, and they really seem to be heroes. Heroes are still more worshipped.
Seeing that the little devil didn't even check his documents and opened the city gate directly, Hu Biao also said directly: "Pillar, drive the car directly into the city gate." These puppet troops at the city gate can be handed over to the escort team to be responsible! ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
After instructing Tian Tiezhu, Hu Biao knocked on the carriage behind him again and ordered: "Commando prepare!" Once you stop, immediately rush out of the car and give priority to the little devils on the city gate. In addition, convey instructions to the escort team members to deal with the little devils in the city gate cave. ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
Compared with Hu Biao and his entourage, they were very calm, disguised as guerrillas of the puppet army, but they seemed a little weak and nervous. Fortunately, there are experienced veterans of the task force in their team, who took the opportunity to remind and comfort them.
When the car slowly entered the city from under the noses of the puppet army defending the city, these puppet soldiers on duty still saluted and greeted. When the convoy drove out of the city gate, the team responsible for escorting the 'captives' also arrived at the puppet army that greeted them.
Just as there was a puppet army defending the city, he smiled and said, "Brother, I'm tired tonight!" After capturing so many captives this time, Taijun will definitely have a reward! ”
"Reward! Would you like to be rewarded with a bullet? Don't move, we are the Chucheng anti-Japanese guerrillas, you have been captured! ”
Seeing that the car in front of him had stopped, the commando sitting in the compartment had already rushed out of the car quickly. The combat team members who were mixed in the escort team quickly controlled these puppet soldiers defending the city with stunned expressions.
For the puppet army that tried to resist, the combat team members did not say a word, and the white knife went in and the red knife came out. Listening to the gunfire coming from the city gates, the guerrillas who cooperated with the battle also pointed their guns at the puppet soldiers who came to meet them.
"Don't move! Whoever moves will be killed! We are Chucheng guerrillas, and those who don't want to die are all holding their heads and squatting! ”
In the face of the muzzles raised by the guerrillas, as well as the iron-blooded suppression methods of the combat members, the puppet soldiers who wanted to survive the city all obediently raised their hands and surrendered. At this moment, Hu Biao and others have launched a rapid assault on Chucheng.
The assault team responsible for seizing the city launched a surprise attack along the aisle of the city gate. The rest of the assault force, led by vehicles and reconnaissance detachments, began to advance towards the Japanese barracks and garrison headquarters in the city.
What even surprised Qin Zhen and the others was that as soon as the battle at the city gate began, there was the sound of artillery shelling in the city. Although he didn't know where the shelling was, Qin Zhen could still guess that it should be the ambush soldiers sent by Hu Biao in advance.
In the case of the little devils being caught off guard, the task force composed of all the elites quickly launched a surprise attack on the Japanese army in Chucheng. In this case, how long can the Japanese army in the city hold out?
