Chapter 403: Poke and leave

However, now that the security of the military region headquarters is safe, Li Ziyuan is not very worried. After receiving his own briefing, with the rich experience of several heads of the military region, he will certainly not put the military district headquarters in danger. However, to lead this Japanese army in that direction can avoid the direction in which the military region headquarters is transferred, which is a headache for Li Ziyuan.

There are interspersed routes of the Japanese army on the map, but the key is that the military district headquarters and the headquarters are in charge of the political and rear organs, and they are not sure that they will move in that direction. It would be nice if his troops were around, not to mention these seven or eight hundred devils, even if they were doubling up, they would have nothing to worry about.

But now this battalion has half of its strength left in addition to the casualties in the previous battles, which makes me somewhat scruple too much. If they encounter the military district headquarters, with the small number of guards around the military region, and in the absence of other troops around, there is no way to divide troops to protect them.

After all, except for the alarm call he hung up to the military district headquarters after he rushed back to the field hospital, he has completely lost contact with the military district headquarters by now. The head of the military district shifted in that direction, and he himself is not at all clear now. Lead this group of Japanese troops by yourself, but don't guide this group of Japanese troops to the side of the military region headquarters, it will be quite a bad dish.

Thinking of this, he turned off the flashlight in his hand, put down the raincoat covering his head, and looked at the sky that was already a little dark at this time. After roughly calculating the retreat route, Li Ziyuan raised his telescope and headed down the mountain. At this moment, the Japanese puppet army under the mountain is piling up batches of Japanese corpses on wood for cremation.

As for the corpses of the puppet soldiers who were killed, they were thrown on the hillside and no one cared about them. The bodies of the traitors were dug up and dumped there. A Japanese soldier standing on the edge of the fire of burning corpses, holding his own saber, was constantly saying something to several officers around him with a blushing face.

The few plainclothes traitors in the team are also constantly putting forward some suggestions. It's just that compared to the Japanese soldier Zhongzuo with a blue face, the expressions on the faces of these traitors are quite unnatural. Obviously, the corpses in the pit brought a lot of shock to these traitors.

Although he didn't know the identities of those traitors, the confession of the puppet army before made Li Ziyuan a little vigilant about the identities of these traitors. If these people are also traitors to the Anti-United Nations, then they will be extra careful in this morning glory operation. Don't be taken away by this group of devils, but you were bitten hard.

Li Ziyuan didn't care what this Zhongzuo was thinking, he kept carefully observing the entire formation of the Japanese army, and at the same time carefully circled in his heart what he should do. Perhaps because of the shadow left by the village, or because of the fear of a sneak attack, most of the Japanese troops did not enter the village, and only some Japanese troops entered the village and controlled the village.

Most of the troops were deployed outside the village, and several machine-gun positions were set up around the perimeter to form crossfire, and the guard posts were placed quite far away. Although the entire Japanese army was in the process of resting, it put on a posture of attacking and retreating. Throughout the camp and beyond, a network of crossfire was formed.

Their artillery position, unfortunately, was placed under their noses, in this slightly open area. The mountain cannon and the mortar, one each of which were carried, had been unloaded from pack horses and had been driven into improvised artillery positions. The rest of the artillery, along with spare shells, was still unloaded on pack horses.

Of the five heavy machine guns carried, only two were unloaded, and the rest, along with spare machine gun cartridges, were also strapped to horses. Looking at such a formation, Li Ziyuan was somewhat cautious about his next move. He suspected that this was not just a tough nut to crack, but could even be said to be a fire hedgehog.

Its artillery and heavy machine gun fire are on duty, and the light machine gun is the backbone of the cross-fire network. If you can't figure out the sneak attack point yourself, it is very likely that you will steal the chicken and rice, but you will be trapped in it. This is the point of view, and you must find it accurately.

But caution is caution, but there are still some things that still need to be done. This group of Japanese troops must be taken away, otherwise leaving them here will be too much of a threat to the hospital. It's just that how to lead, Li Ziyuan still has to think about it carefully. After all, he was just luring them away, not to let this Japanese army bite him.

Li Ziyuan is very calm, he not only has to wait for the best opportunity, but the most important thing is to wait for the fighters to fill their stomachs and roughly recover some physical strength before they can start to act. Fortunately, all the wounded have been handed over to the field hospital, and their troops can now go into battle lightly.

The raging fire of the Japanese army's burning corpses under the mountain, Li Ziyuan's head on the mountain was spinning rapidly. At this time, the small mountain village, which had been disturbed by the sound of gunfire for almost a whole day during the day, fell into a strange tranquility at this time. But anyone with a slightly more sensitive nose will smell the tension in this tranquility.

Just wait until the Japanese troops down the hill burned the bodies of the war dead, packed the ashes into several vacated ammunition boxes, and tied them to horses. This Japanese army didn't go in that direction, but after strictly controlling the two commanding heights at the entrance of the village, they actually rested under Li Ziyuan's nose.

Although this group of Japanese troops has set up strict guard posts on the periphery of their resting place. But this move of the Japanese army made Li Ziyuan a little baffled. Some Li Ziyuan, who couldn't understand the Japanese army's approach, couldn't judge the real move of the Japanese army for a while.

Do they have the audacity to use force on their own, and they feel that even if there are eight roads around, they will not pose a threat to themselves, or do they have other intentions? Even if the sneak attack on the military district headquarters fails, this Japanese army should not rely on it here. In the case that there may be many hidden Eighth Roads in the surrounding area, this Japanese army is not making trouble for itself.

And he had a somewhat bad feeling in his heart, could it be that this Japanese army was here, and it was a trap that he was preparing to set up for himself or the troops around him who were rushing around? If the Japanese army really has this kind of plan, then their own tactics are definitely a correct choice.

In this way, he can disrupt the entire tactical arrangement of the Japanese army and avoid the surrounding brother troops from being in danger. But if it is really like his own judgment, it is a conspiracy for the Japanese army to rest here, then what can he do to let this Japanese army bite him to the death, and to ensure his own safety, this is what Li Ziyuan needs to consider carefully.

It's just that judging from the firepower of this Japanese army, isn't this decoy a bit big? Although there were only more than 700 Japanese troops, this firepower was even higher than that of the two regiments of the Eighth Route Army, and the artillery even surpassed that of a main brigade such as the 358th Brigade. With such a heavy bait, the little devil is not afraid to scare away the eight roads around him who want to come up and take a bite?

The firepower of this Japanese army, coupled with the gap in the quality of individual soldiers between the two sides. It's not an ordinary eight-way main group, there are such good teeth that can gnaw down. To deal with this Japanese army, the Eighth Route Army had to mobilize at least three regiments of troops, not counting the strength of the peripheral blockades.

The Japanese army put on such a posture here, and Li Ziyuan never figured out their true intentions. However, the posture of the Japanese army made Li Ziyuan more determined to fight and touch the bottom of the devil. It's just a pity that the radio station I seized, because there is no operator, at least for now, it is just an ornament.

Otherwise, if he contacts the military district headquarters and sees what the surrounding situation is, he will judge more clearly. What is the current situation of the surrounding battlefield, and where are the military region headquarters and the surrounding brother troops now, Li Ziyuan is eyes black at the moment.

This undoubtedly made him take a more cautious attitude in his actions while making up his mind. And the strict vigilance arranged around the area of this Japanese army when they were resting made Li Ziyuan fail to find a chance to attack several times. However, the Japanese army was not in a hurry, and Li Ziyuan was not in a hurry.

Until the whole night has passed, and the morning star has appeared. Seeing that even the Japanese sentries who were very vigilant were a little dozing, and that several Japanese alert positions, especially the Japanese troops in the two machine gun positions, were somewhat lax because of the long period of peace and quiet, Li Ziyuan finally made up his mind to do it.

Calling the battalion commander and instructor to his side, Li Ziyuan said directly: "Let's do it now, go around from behind the Japanese army and touch the two hills at the entrance of the village." Deal with the Japanese soldiers on the hill first, and then stab him from behind the Japanese army's ass. If the Japanese army on the mountain is heavily defended, then directly attack those two hills. ”

"Remember, don't get entangled with the Japanese for too long, and leave as soon as you stab him. Don't be greedy and chew too much, and then trap ourselves in it. My intention is to fight quickly, retract quickly, and retreat quickly, leading them by the nose to move to the northwest. ”

"My determination was to draw four platoons, commanded by me, by the deputy battalion commander and a company commander, each with two platoons to attack a hill. If the Japanese did not find out, they tried to touch it with a bayonet as much as possible. If the Japanese find out, they will attack as soon as the guns are fired. ”

"All weapons, especially heavy machine guns and grenadiers, should be taken out. If you only take out two light machine guns and dozens of rifles to fool around, how can you convince the devils that we are the main force, how can you let them take the bait and drag them away from here? ”

Speaking of this, Li Ziyuan turned his head to look at the deputy commander of the battalion and said: "But this strong attack must grasp the posture, not only to convince the Japanese army that we are the main force, but also not to pay too many casualties." As soon as the devil launches a counterattack, you will immediately retreat, and don't be stuck by the devil. ”

After explaining to the deputy battalion commander who was commanding the front-line, Li Ziyuan pointed to the head of the battalion commander and said, "You and the instructor take the rest of the troops and spread out to the west in a trapezoidal configuration. When we finished stabbing the Japanese in the ass and retreated, we took alternate cover and broke away to the west. Remember, we must have a good grasp of the troops, and we must not run around in a swarm, let alone neglect one or the other. ”

After listening to Li Ziyuan's plan, the battalion commander looked at the Japanese artillery position under the mountain and said, "Chief, the devil's artillery position is right under our noses, and there is only one squad of alert troops. If we choose the artillery position of the devil to start, we can not only choose to be condescending, but also defeat the heavy firepower of the Japanese army. ”

"Otherwise, as long as we alarm the devils, these artillery will pose too much of a threat to us. And it's going to be dawn, and we still need a lot of time to get around. By the time we get out of the village, maybe we won't have any fighters. I think it's going to take this Japanese army away anyway, and it's better to be close than to be far away. ”
