Chapter 665: The feeling of losing money
The Soviet-made heavy machine gun that turned the muzzle of the gun at an unknown time, and two crooked light machine guns, plus two grenadiers*. directly let these more than 30 devils lie down on the spot more than half of them. The rest of the devils didn't care to turn around and see where the machine gun fire was coming from, and they didn't dare to turn back and resist.
Use your skillful tactical movements to quickly climb over the ridge line of the mountain. It was only at the last few tens of meters that five or six people were knocked down by the machine-gun fire and accurate rifle fire from behind. No way, there is hardly any vegetation on the mountains here.
It's not a good place for ambushes, but there's also no concealment to take advantage of when retreating. These devils are running all the way to the top of the bare mountain, and this goal is too obvious. What's more, Li Ziyuan also issued a Japanese non-commissioned officer-level telescope to the machine gun squad leader of the heavy machine gun.
The crooked handles of the two devils who came over, the scope on the top of the gun is still there. Coupled with the characteristics of the crooked handle machine gun, it hits accurately and ruthlessly, almost equivalent to a sniper rifle that can fire continuously. These devils were able to escape more than a dozen in the end, which can be regarded as quite lucky.
Just waited until the rest of the devils, and when they finally crossed the ridgeline, they didn't expect a continuous explosion sound from under their feet. And what exploded under their feet was the tripping thunder that Li Ziyuan had planted under the ridge line of the northwest slope in advance and modified with *.
In addition, when Li Ziyuan set off from the Taiyue Military Region, he asked for it from the Taiyue Military Region, and he filled in some additional soil*. And these are still connected to the soil*, and the power is already very different. After the explosion ended, there were only three Japanese soldiers left who barely escaped the catastrophe, and they could continue to run wildly.
Seeing that the devil had basically been defeated, Li Ziyuan accepted it as soon as he saw it, and did not chase after the three Japanese soldiers who ran away. Instead, the troops were ordered to quickly clean up the battlefield and immediately prepare for the transfer. In this battle, Li Ziyuan gained a lot. Not only did they seize a large number of weapons and ammunition, but they also cleaned up more than 100 puppet prisoners, including the lightly wounded, when cleaning up the battlefield.
These puppet armies were not able to fight hard, and at the same time, they were frightened a little silly by the dense firepower from Li Ziyuan at the first time. Judging from their long-term experience in fighting with the troops of the Taiyue Military Region, these machine guns should have been troops of a regiment of the Eighth Route. So these puppet armies except for a few unlucky guys, and a few die-hard officers.
The rest of the people, all quite smart, immediately fell to the ground. Or simply, just lie on the ground and pretend to be dead. Relying on the good habits cultivated on the battlefield for many years, eighty percent of the puppet troops who participated in the war survived. And most of them got up quickly from the place as soon as the bayonet was pressed. As a result, the number of prisoners was so large that Li Ziyuan was also taken aback.
In addition, there were more than thirty seriously wounded Japanese soldiers. Li Ziyuan didn't do it this time, leaving all the wounded of the Japanese puppet army in place. The Japanese puppet soldiers who were killed did not move their military uniforms. But everything from the steel helmet to the kettle, from the bullet box to the belt, was ripped off.
This time, Li Ziyuan basically did not catch a minor wounded. At this time, the Japanese army was still quite tenacious. Not to mention live prisoners, even the lightly wounded are basically difficult to catch. This time, more than 30 Japanese soldiers were captured, and basically all of them were seriously wounded. On the contrary, this saved Li Ziyuan's trouble, and the lightly injured had to be escorted.
Leaving the seriously wounded Japanese soldiers in place is already very humane compared to the Japanese troops who directly give bayonets to the wounded of the opposing side on the battlefield. If it weren't for the discipline to watch, of course Li Ziyuan would have wanted to give these guys a bayonet to everyone. But there is no move, kill those pseudo-plainclothes team members, and the superiors may not punish themselves.
If these seriously wounded Japanese prisoners were killed, it is estimated that the superiors would never be able to spare themselves. Therefore, Li Ziyuan finally chose to show mercy to his subordinates and did not commit the discipline of mistreating prisoners. He just used the clothes on the corpses of the Japanese soldiers to wrap the wounded Japanese soldiers in a hurry.
Anyway, the seized first-aid kit has to be kept by my own people. Using their own clothes to bandage them, Li Ziyuan already felt that he was very interesting. As for whether directly bandaging clothes that have not been sterilized, are dirty after continuous running, and cannot see their true colors will cause wound infection, Li Ziyuan can't control it.
Know the wounded in your own troops, many times because of the lack of bandages and first aid kits. After being wounded, he was dressed with leggings or a piece of linen torn from his clothes. The Eighth Route Army, which is so poor that it can't even get together its military uniforms, how can it have so many bandages and first-aid kits?
However, when the troops were cleaning up the battlefield, halfway up the mountain in the northwest direction, they found Iwayama Shaosa, the commander of the Japanese pursuit operation, who had been shot again and was in a coma. This old man, who was in a coma at this time, after the wound was bandaged. Tie it up with the rope he was going to take the prisoners on, and let a few puppet army captives carry it with him.
It's just that although this ambush battle was won again, after the battle was over, after counting his casualties, Li Ziyuan almost didn't feel distressed and vomited blood. In the last ambush, the troops lost only nine casualties, and the combined number of light and serious wounded was less than thirty. In other words, last time he achieved quite good results at a slight cost.
But this time, there were more than 30 casualties, and the light and serious wounded together together with the losses of the last time were nearly a company. Although more than 200 Japanese troops were solved, Li Ziyuan was still distressed and trembling. These are all old bones that can lead troops in the future, so half of them are lost.
This time the losses were so large, although they were also quite captured, and the results were quite impressive. But the loss was so big all of a sudden, Li Ziyuan still felt that he had lost his capital. He was reluctant to change the equipment of his soldiers, let alone the equipment of a company, even if he was given the equipment of a regiment.
However, Li Ziyuan did not have time to grieve, so he hastily buried his fallen brother and marked it on the map. Li Ziyuan led his troops to take prisoners, carrying captured supplies and wounded, as well as several Japanese officers who took prisoners. All the way, first follow the direction pursued by the Japanese puppet army, and first transfer to the woods at the time of the first ambush.
After lurking in the woods for a day, and allowing the troops to get the most effective rest. Li Ziyuan thrust straight to the north from that position. After the two Japanese puppet army search teams passed by, they found a gap in the encirclement of the Japanese puppet army, and went north to the northern edge of the Shangdang Basin.
Then he quickly transferred to the east, and quickly crossed the Shangdang Basin at the speed of a rapid march, very skillfully avoiding the Japanese puppet army who were searching for him everywhere. And those puppet soldiers who carried the wounded and prisoners were honest under strict monitoring and did not dare to make any small moves.
There was no way, it was the first time they had seen such a fierce Eighth Route Chief. Whoever wants to make any small moves, without saying a word, is directly a bayonet. After killing the first puppet officer who tried to avoid the Japanese puppet army passing by, and wanted to shout to raise the alarm, the remaining puppet army was much more honest along the way.
At this time, the Japanese puppet army who were searching for Li Ziyuan's subordinates everywhere in the Taiyue Mountains did not know that he was hiding under their noses for a whole day. Then a quick northward shift during the night, passing them a few times. However, before moving out of the Taiyue Mountains, Li Ziyuan released more than a dozen older puppet soldiers.
At the same time, before moving out of the Taiyue Mountains, Li Ziyuan used the military uniforms on the prisoners of the puppet army. Adopting the tactics of make-up sneak attack, he eliminated a stronghold of the Japanese puppet army in the northeast of the Taiyue Mountains in one fell swoop, captured more than 100 puppet soldiers and killed 16 Japanese soldiers. The winter clothes that the Japanese puppet army transported to the stronghold, as well as the seizure of a batch of taxes to be transported to Changzhi.
This stronghold was located in a large and prosperous market town, and Li Ziyuan raised a batch of cotton and cloth in this market town, as well as a batch of kerosene and other materials urgently needed by Taihang Mountain. Then, more than a dozen carts of the local puppet army were requisitioned on the spot, plus the prisoners of the puppet army were used as laborers, and the army marched all the way to the Taihang Mountains.
At this time, they were still sweeping the nets in the Taiyue Mountains, trying to catch the Japanese puppet army of this cunning guy. Only then did I know from the released captives that this Eight Roads was originally not from the Taiyue Mountains. It's just that passing by here and returning to Taihang Mountain, it is the old Eighth Road in the Taihang Mountain in the east, and they are sweeping the net in Taiyue District, all looking for the wrong direction.
After knowing that even if the entire Taiyue Mountain Area is turned over, this eight-way road will not be found. By the time he turned around and tried to pursue eastward, Li Ziyuan had already entered the Taihang Mountains. Looking at the lofty mountains of Taihang Mountain, the Japanese puppet army did not dare to continue to chase, and could only collect their troops back in despair.
What if you don't go back, there are no more than three or five thousand people, and the Japanese puppet army dares to go into the mountains to sweep up? Although the Japanese puppet army mobilized more than 2,000 troops to pursue Li Ziyuan, it was okay to pursue Li Ziyuan with this amount of troops. As for entering the mountain, not to mention Taihang Mountain, they don't dare to enter the Taiyue Mountain now.
Otherwise, how many people will come back from these two thousand people into the mountain? Besides, the Taihang Mountains are so big, and these two thousand people sprinkled them into it, just like sprinkling a bottle of pepper noodles in the river, they can't even get up a wave. This revenge can't be avenged at least in a short time, so don't sell one and take a gang.
It's not just that this group of devils doesn't dare to pursue anymore, the key problem is that their rear is also on fire now. Taking advantage of the fact that the devils were chasing this force like crazy everywhere, the troops of the Taiyue Military Region took the initiative to attack and took advantage of the emptiness in the rear of the Japanese puppet army to pull out a lot of strongholds.
In particular, the largest stronghold of the Japanese puppet army at the eastern foot of Taiyue Mountain is also the core stronghold that radiates dozens of miles around. The Japanese recruits that Li Ziyuan fought in his first ambush battle were assigned to other strongholds after reporting to this stronghold. The Japanese puppet army that pursued Li Ziyuan was the craziest and was ambushed by Li Ziyuan again also set off from this stronghold.
The location of this stronghold is quite important, and it is a key position to contain the eastern foothills of Taiyue Mountain. The Japanese puppet army controlled this stronghold and could overlook almost all the passages from the eastern foot of the Taiyue Mountains into the Shangdang Basin. Most of the various materials that flow into the base area also need to pass through the vicinity of this base.
The number of Japanese puppet troops in this stronghold has always remained at more than 300 people, and the weapons are quite sophisticated. The troops of the Taiyue Military Region have tried to uproot this stronghold several times before, but all because of the lack of firepower. As well as the stronghold and the surrounding strongholds, there are roads connected to the Japanese puppet army, and the reinforcements of the Japanese puppet army were rapid and unsuccessful.
Moreover, the location of this stronghold is also a relatively wealthy place in the entire Taiyue Mountains. This time, the troops of the Taiyue Military Region, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Japanese puppet army of the department, completely pulled out the nails of the Japanese puppet army at the eastern foot of the Taiyue Mountains in one fell swoop. Homeopathy also uprooted several surrounding strongholds that formed a strategic cooperation with the stronghold.
