Chapter 388 The plan is the plan
In order to win the Battle of Wuhan, many of the main divisions of the Japanese army began to advance to Wuhan from the north and south. Wherever the army went, except for a few military points where garrisons were defending, most of the defenders of remote towns were about to collapse at the touch of a button.
In view of the relationship between time and troops, the Japanese troops who occupied the cities along the route also paid more attention to the cities at the county level. As for the small towns and villages they passed through, the Japanese army had no time to take care of them for the time being, and could only be controlled by the puppet army formed.
The Japanese army, which had just occupied Chuzhou not long ago, recently began to order the defenders of each city to raise supplies for the front-line combat troops. To raise a large amount of military supplies, it means that both the Japanese army and the puppet army must try to loot the people as much as possible.
Compared with the area where the main force of the Japanese division passed, the anti-Japanese forces operating behind enemy lines did not dare to mess around. As for places like Chuzhou, the Japanese army did not have many troops stationed, and most of its control was limited to county towns or highway areas.
Hu Biao, who was passing through this place, did not know what the guerrillas of the New Fourth Army were trying to ambush at the fork in the road late at night. But he could still guess that there must be some convoy or people passing by on this road tonight.
Looking at the two captured scouts, Hu Biao tested his words and confirmed his guess even more. After looking at the map, Hu Biao continued to smile and said, "No accident, you want to ambush the convoy that has never been installed, right?" ”
In the face of Hu Biao's further temptation, the two scouts continued to remain silent. But one of them looked at Hu Biao and the others, and finally said, "You are not spies!" Who are you? ”
Being able to be selected as a scout shows that the brains are smarter. If Hu Biao and his entourage were really spies who were bought by devils, then the guerrillas were lurking before, and it is estimated that they would have been ambushed by Hu Biao and his entourage, and the road would not be so quiet!
In response to the scout's inquiry, Hu Biao smiled and said, "Okay! You know a lot about who we are, and it won't do you any good! If it weren't for the two of you, we wouldn't be dragged here tonight. Wait patiently! ”
Just as Hu Biao was chatting with the two scouts, Zheng Jingwu, who was in charge of receiving the telegram, quickly stepped forward and said, "Detachment leader, there is a situation!" ”
"Say!"
"According to the report of the reconnaissance team, a convoy is coming from the direction of Lai'an! There were three cars, plus a Japanese squad, and a small number of puppet soldiers and oxen and wagons. Judging from the direction of the convoy, it should be here in an hour! ”
"Got it! Order the reconnaissance squad along the way and continue to carry out surveillance! Send a report to Sandao and ask him to pay attention to the road situation in the direction of Chucheng. I always feel that it is not normal for the little devil to transport supplies in the middle of the night. ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
After listening to Zheng Jingwu's report, Hu Biao sent instructions to the rest of the reconnaissance team and asked them to monitor the highway section. In Hu Biao's opinion, the little devils should know that there are anti-Japanese forces in the area, and they must also want to lure them out to encircle and annihilate them.
The place where the guerrillas set up an ambush was really good. Correspondingly, it is also necessary to bear the reinforcements that may arrive from the other two directions. Once the little devils use the security convoy as bait, then the guerrillas will be really in trouble.
Hu Biao, who was hiding on the side and waiting quietly, soon received a telegram from Xu Sandao from the direction of Chucheng. As Hu Biao expected, when the convoy in the direction of Lai'an departed, several cars also drove out in the direction of Chucheng.
Receiving the telegram from Xu Sandao, Hu Biao sneered: "Sure enough, this is really a fishing tactic!" Order the scout teams and keep watching! As long as there are no large reinforcements, the departments will continue to be on standby! ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
They were harassed by the anti-Japanese armed forces active in the occupied areas many times, and the Japanese army also began to learn to use some bait and use some false news to lure the anti-Japanese armed forces to dispatch. And the Japanese army also took this opportunity to encircle and annihilate these anti-Japanese forces.
For the anti-Japanese forces behind enemy lines, they not only have to fight with the little devils, but also need to fight with wits. If you are not careful, you may fall into the trap laid by the little devils. When it comes to messaging, the little devils are much faster than the guerrillas.
Looking for Qin Tianyou, Hu Biao pointed to the section of the road in front of him and said, "Take you over and set up an ambush circle in that area." After the battle starts here, the little devils from that direction should quickly rush to reinforcements.
What you have to do is very simple, that is, to wipe out all these little devils who rushed from Chucheng for reinforcements. As for the guerrillas of the New Fourth Army, with me and the rest of the combat platoons watching, nothing could happen. The battle is over, let's continue to hurry up! ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
After entering the territory of Anhui Province, Qin Tianyou and others were also ready to engage in battle at any time. However, such engagements are often hasty and short-lived, and the troops will leave quickly as soon as the battle is over, without giving the enemy a chance to entangle.
Even if the Japanese were aware of such a battle, they would mistakenly think that it was carried out by the anti-Japanese forces behind enemy lines, and they would not guess what this matter had to do with the task force. Changing places with one shot can also ensure the safety of the troops to the greatest extent.
To Hu Biao's surprise, it didn't take long for the team to go to Lai'an to reconnoiter and pass another urgent message to Hu Biao. Looking at the urgent telegram sent by the reconnaissance team, Hu Biao was also very surprised: "There are still cavalry!" ”
After thinking for a while, he said: "Pillar, go and call the Lei platoon commander of the special second company!" ”
After a while, Lei Xiong rushed to the temporary headquarters where Hu Biao was. Knowing that behind the convoy transporting supplies, there was also a cavalryman of the Japanese squadron, Lei Xiong also said excitedly: "Detachment leader, do you leave this matter to us?" ”
"That's right! The cavalry is extremely fast, and once the battle is engaged, it is believed that the cavalry of the little devils will quickly come to reinforce it. What your fire platoon has to do is to wrap this cavalry squadron around me. No one or one horse is allowed to run away for me! ”
"Please rest assured that the fire platoon will ensure the completion of the task!"
"Follow the pillar to get your ammo! Ambush positions, set up on the road two miles away! ”
"Yes!"
As a new member of the task force, Lei Xiong also hopes to have the opportunity to advance his position. But the promotion of the task force also requires combat merits as capital. As the platoon commander of the firepower platoon, Lei Xiong must also make more meritorious contributions.
Fighting with a company does not have much merit to make. Only by fighting independently, Lei Xiong and his team members can get more credit. Let him lead the firepower platoon to deal with the cavalry squadron of a little devil, Lei Xiong is still very confident.
The reason is that most of the members of the fire platoon, except for a few riflemen, are machine gun firefighters. The ratio of light and heavy machine guns was also the largest in the entire task force. This does not include the machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns that Hu Biao provides at any time!
The guerrillas, who rushed to the ambush area in advance and were seizing the time to build an ambush position, did not know that their ambush tonight was actually a trap. With a total of more than 100 people, the consequences of ambushing so many Japanese troops can be imagined.
Fortunately, perhaps Hu Biao happened to bring people through here. After learning that the little devil wanted to yin the guerrillas, Hu Biao decided to make a plan. When the battle starts, I believe the little devils will also feel caught off guard!
With the sniper team lurking near the guerrilla ambush area, Hu Biao said to several team members: "After the battle starts, focus on solving the machine gunners and officers of the little devils." We are not allowed to shoot until the guerrillas have fired! ”
"Understood!"
As the time to arrive was getting shorter, the side of the road became quieter. The guerrillas who were lying in ambush on the side of the road also looked at the road ahead and said, "Could the information be wrong?" Will the little devil really come at such a late hour? ”
"It shouldn't be fake! Didn't our scouts during the day say that the little devils had already raised supplies and were ready to send them to Chucheng? ”
"Could this be a trap?"
"Who knows! Let's take a look! If there are too many escorted little devils, we won't fight. If there are few escorted imps, let's fight. Anyway, we need supplies too. Without guns and food, how can the army expand and develop? ”
Fighting behind enemy lines, the guerrillas of the New Fourth Army also needed a large amount of guns, ammunition, and food if they wanted to develop and expand. Even if the New Fourth Army is slightly better treated than the Eighth Route Army, it can still be subject to many restrictions.
If it wants to expand and develop, the New Fourth Army can only expand its troops by attacking the little devils and using the ammunition and materials captured on the battlefield. As far as the guerrillas in ambush are concerned, they have already pulled out the main force of the guerrillas tonight.
Fighting the puppet army and a small group of devils, the guerrillas still have a lot of confidence. But if they really want to run into a large number of little devils, the guerrillas can only temporarily avoid the edge. And recently, the little devil has actually been tossed enough by them.
Several convoys carrying supplies were harassed or attacked during their journey. As far as the Japanese troops stationed in Chucheng were concerned, they naturally wanted to get rid of this guerrilla force as soon as possible. That's why such a bait is laid.
When the sound of car engines was heard in front of the road, and the headlights could be seen from a distance, the guerrillas lying on the ambush position also entered a state of readiness. The commander in charge of observation also began to pay attention to the situation of the convoy.
"Three cars, and some ox-and-horse carts! I only saw the puppet army, but I didn't see the little devils, what's going on? ”
"Will the little devil stay in the car?"
"Possibly! Captain, what to do? To fight or not to fight? ”
"Hit! There are only three cars, and even if there are hidden little devils on them, I believe that the number of people will not be too many. Tell the fighters that they have to fight quickly. When the battle is over, immediately clean up the battlefield and evacuate and return to the base area! ”
"Yes, Captain!"
Regarding the situation discussed by the guerrillas, Hu Biao, who also saw the appearance of the convoy, was naturally unclear. In fact, Hu Biao is also speculating whether the guerrillas, who are ready for an ambush, will start a battle.
If the guerrillas did not shoot, then Hu Biao would have to watch the convoy leave. However, he felt that with the strength of this convoy, if the guerrillas were really coming for it, they would not let go of such an excellent opportunity.
This also means that as soon as the guerrillas fire their guns, the little devil reinforcements that have arrived on both sides of the road will also quickly come to reinforce them. If Hu Biao hadn't passed by here by chance tonight, the fate of this guerrilla force could have been imagined!
