Chapter Twenty-Six: Go to Pingchuan Town for a big meal
After the order to blockade the two main strongholds in the eastern mountains, Qiaokou and Luoma, to strengthen the alert. Wang Tieshi led his troops, while searching along the mountainous area, while pursuing to the east. It's just that this time his judgment was only half right, and the remaining half was wrong.
It was Li Ziyuan's group that destroyed the Baijin Railway this time, and his judgment was still very accurate. But his judgment that Li Ziyuan would go east and withdraw to the mountain nest was a mistake in calculation. Because Li Ziyuan did not retreat to the east at all after breaking away from contact with the Japanese puppet army.
After getting rid of contact with the Japanese puppet army, Li Ziyuan did not lead the team to withdraw to the Qiaokou direction. Because he knows that direction, it is definitely not a way out of life now. The Japanese puppet army is not stupid, they should have judged their identity at this moment, and they will definitely search and pursue to the east.
At that time, the Japanese puppet army in the Qiaokou stronghold was expanding westward, and it was possible that he would be blocked between Qiaokou and Pingchuan. As for the direction of the fall, it is not the best way to retreat now. This bombing on the Baijin railway line, I am afraid that the entire Japanese puppet army in Hubei will be alarmed.
Blindly retreating, if you can't do it, you can only let the Japanese puppet army bite their butts and chase after them. Coupled with the terrain of Qiaokou Town and the alertness of the Japanese puppet army, after breaking away from contact with the Japanese puppet army, Li Ziyuan did not want to retreat to the east at all. Including the fall of the horse, he did not give any thought to it.
Li Ziyuan and himself were blocked in the mountainous area between Pingchuan and Luoma and Qiaokou, and were bitten and eaten by the Japanese puppet army. It's better to take a gamble and make some moves, at least after transferring the Japanese puppet army in Pingchuan back, they are trying to find an opportunity to withdraw.
However, after continuous combat and transfer, the troops were somewhat tired, and finding a place to rest became Li Ziyuan's top priority. At present, the terrain on the west side of the Baijin Railway is unfavorable, and the green gauze tent has not yet risen. Even if you cross the Baijin Railway, you can't find a place to rest in a short time.
The Japanese puppet army in Pingchuan Town is looking for itself everywhere in the east again, and the eastern mountains will definitely not retreat. For Li Ziyuan at the moment, returning to the shallow mountainous area on the outskirts of Pingchuan Town has become his only choice. For him right now, the most dangerous place is also the safest place. The truth of darkness under the lamp, he Li Ziyuan still understands.
When he withdrew to the outskirts of Pingchuan Town, after staying on the mountain where he had stayed at the earliest, he did not encounter the Japanese puppet army along the way, which made Li Ziyuan's heart relax a little. But after continuous combat and rapid marching, Rao is Li Ziyuan, who has always felt that his physical fitness is good, also feels a trace of fatigue all over his body.
After arranging for the troops to rest, they looked at the mountains to the east full of flashlights of the Japanese puppet army. Li Ziyuan looked at Liu Lianming beside him, but he didn't suppress his anger and said: "You're fucking crazy, we were almost all surrounded." There are no bullets, we can do it again. No, Lao Tzu can exchange Czech-made bullets and other troops for you. ”
"If you guys get served here, you're going to have more fucking bullets and another piece of shit? You listen to Lao Tzu, and the next time you fuck it, Lao Tzu will shoot you directly. You are a veteran, don't you know the truth of obeying orders on the battlefield? ”
also knew that today's incident was a little too reckless, and Liu Lianming, who almost didn't implicate everyone. was scolded by Li Ziyuan and didn't dare to say a word, but he blushed and wiped the gun desperately.
Seeing that this guy was bored and didn't speak, Li Ziyuan also lost interest in continuing to train him. Just when Li Ziyuan, who felt that he was very tired, leaned against a big tree and wanted to rest for a while. Shi Jin walked up to him with the machine gun in his arms, and the idea of letting him rest could only be left behind.
After putting the machine gun next to Li Ziyuan and taking over a flower trap thrown by Li Ziyuan, Shi Jin did not familiarize himself with this weapon according to Li Ziyuan's requirements, but said: "Captain, everyone's dry food is gone." This continuous march and battle, the mountain wind in the mountains is hard, and there is no food in this stomach. Gotta figure out how to get everyone something to eat. ”
After listening to Shi Jin's words, Li Ziyuan didn't care, and pointed to Pingchuan Town under the mountain and said, "There is something to eat, and it is all under the mountain." You go and tell everyone to tidy up their weapons first and rest for an hour. After the Japanese puppet army in the east has gone farther, let's go down the mountain to Pingchuan Town for a big meal. ”
"You and a few warriors, as soon as possible to get familiar with the flower mechanism in your hands. You don't have to think much about it, as long as you can change the magazine. When shooting, just shoot within 100 meters of a crowded area. When we go down the mountain to eat, I guess we need this guy to start a gang. ”
After Li Ziyuan said this, both Shi Jin, who was standing in front of him, and Liu Lianming, who had been silent, looked at him with some surprise. Seeing the surprised eyes of the two people who looked at him, Li Ziyuan did not make any explanation, but closed his eyes and raised his mind.
It's just that although he closed his eyes, in fact, Li Ziyuan couldn't sleep. At this time, the Japanese puppet army in Pingchuan Town was almost fully dispatched, and it was no problem to go down the mountain to make some movements. But there were two things he couldn't afford not to consider, one was the route of retreat, and the second was how to bring back as much loot as possible.
In the barren mountainous areas of eastern Hubei, it is difficult to provide enough meat to replenish the strength of the soldiers. In the days of long-term lack of food and oil, it is difficult to ensure the physical fitness of the soldiers. The troops are all young people, and they are in a time when they can eat. Now it's a spring famine, and it's okay for a common person to do it every day.
However, for troops who have to march and fight every day, as well as to ensure a large amount of training, it is simply impossible to ensure the physical exertion of the soldiers. From the confession of the leader of the puppet army, Li Ziyuan learned that in Pingchuan Town, there was a Japanese army quartermaster warehouse and an arms warehouse.
Pingchuan Town, which has convenient transportation and is located at the junction of plains and mountains, has always been a supply base for the Japanese army in the southeast of Shanxi Province to sweep the Taihang Mountains from the west. There was a transit munitions warehouse for the Japanese army, which was stocked with a considerable amount of supplies. If these supplies can be brought back to the camp, it can be effectively alleviated.
There were also a dozen or so Czech-made rifles that he had buried, and three boxes of ammunition. If it can be transported back, plus the few flower organs in the hands now, the problem of insufficient weapons in the troops can be solved, and more than half of it can be solved. Of course, if we can get a little arms in Pingchuan Town, then the problem of insufficient weapons in the troops will be completely solved.
But the first premise is how to transport this batch of munitions back. Ten people can't carry much when they're tired, and if they carry supplies, weapons and ammunition on their backs, the soldiers won't even be able to run, let alone run. People hate less when they use it, which is the biggest headache for Li Ziyuan at the moment.
However, despite the lack of people to transport materials, Li Ziyuan did not regret not bringing all the troops out. For Li Ziyuan, it is more important than anything else to ensure that the troops complete their training. If the whole team is pulled out, with today's posture, it is estimated that it would be good to have half of them left. In this case, a large number of people is not necessarily a good thing.
Li Ziyuan, who had been thinking hard for a long time with his eyes closed, and had not come up with a way, could only take one step at a time. As for the retreat route of the squad he is carrying now, he has already thought of it. After heading south into the mountains, turn east to find a way to retreat. These soldiers who have already experienced a certain amount of actual combat tests, Li Ziyuan would rather go back empty-handed than suffer a casualty.
After making up his mind, Li Ziyuan opened his eyes and looked at the hour, then turned his head to look at the east and saw that the Japanese puppet army could no longer see the flashlight. Li Ziyuan replaced the shell gun in his hand with a new magazine. He stood up and said to Liu Lianming, who was studying the flower mechanism with Shi Jin: "Gather the troops and go down the mountain to have a big meal." ”
After speaking, he pointed to it, because he couldn't find a replacement clothes, Liu Lianming, who was the only one in the whole team who was still wearing the Eighth Route Military uniform, said: "However, Lao Liu has to wronged you first." Can we enter Pingchuan Town without firing a shot, and have a full meal mixed with it, but it will be pointed at you. ”
After Li Ziyuan said this, Liu Lianming was a little stunned. Before Liu Lianming could react, Li Ziyuan had already tied him up with a rope, of course he couldn't really tie him up. At the end, Li Ziyuan made a live connection, and Liu Lianming could open it as long as he worked hard. But at least it seems that Liu Lianming seems to be tied up quite strongly.
After tying up Liu Lianming, Li Ziyuan told the plan in his heart. His idea was very simple, to infiltrate Pingchuan Town in the name of sending prisoners, and to look for an opportunity to solve the remaining Japanese puppet army without shooting as much as possible. However, when talking to the puppet army, because he is from Sichuan, his identity will be revealed as soon as he opens his mouth, so it is still up to Shi Jin to come forward.
However, considering that everyone was dressed as an authentic peasant in the southeast of Jin, Li Ziyuan still meant to use the pseudo-Hubei County plainclothes team as a cover. Li Ziyuan repeatedly told Shi Jin that when he encountered the puppet army sentry asking for documents, he must put on a fierce posture as much as possible. It really doesn't make sense, so I'll just slap it directly. Replace documents with a slap and pass through the blockade of the puppet army at the entrance to Pingchuan Town.
As for why he tied up Liu Lianming first before he said the plan in his heart, that was Li Ziyuan's own reason. Don't let this guy suffer a little more, how can he be so embarrassed by himself before? And in order to strengthen the effect of the captive, Li Ziyuan also consciously kicked Liu Lianming several times, and Liu Lianming was covered with shoe prints, so he was satisfied with his legs.
can kick people openly, which makes Li Ziyuan's mood much better. However, after kicking Liu Lianming, who had unspeakable bitterness, Li Ziyuan was also glad that when he was about to set off, he took off Guan Li's clothes and did not come out in a military uniform. And Liu Lianming, this guy, did not find a suitable replacement for casual clothes because he had no casual clothes and his height.
Becoming yourself is the best and only option in this plan of action. Otherwise, wouldn't you have to get a shoe print? Could it be that his subordinates also learned to kick themselves? After doing all this, Li Ziyuan looked at the embarrassed Liu Lianming, clapped his hands with satisfaction before leading the team to set off.
This time Li Ziyuan was shrewd, he did not choose to enter Pingchuan from other directions. Instead, he swaggered directly into Pingchuan from the east, that is, the entrance and exit in front of him. The place where he judged that he was almost not trapped at the end was east of Pingchuan Town.
If the Japanese puppet army wants to clear itself, it is very likely that the first person to mobilize is the defenders of the east gate of Pingchuan. In this way, the number of defenders east of Pingchuan Town will definitely be weakened to a certain extent. Moreover, the railway line was attacked before, even if the Japanese puppet army in Pingchuan wanted to get rid of itself and then quickly. But they will not relax their vigilance on the railway line, so the east side with the least number of troops will be their best choice.
