Chapter Eighty-Five: Uncle Gen and Captain Yang

sent two detachments to complete different tasks one after another, which made Sun Yumin very uncertain, especially Xiao Yuying's side, he was afraid that she would have something wrong.

After worrying for a long time, there was no news and no follow-up, which made him very anxious, and just wanted Xiaoshanzi to notify Dong Wenbin and Lin Yuanping to come over, but he received a call from Zhanshutang, who was praising him and the little girl both inside and out, and said: "Brother Sun, I am willing to exchange a battalion of personnel and weapons and equipment for your sister." ”

Sun Yumin was very angry, she asked rhetorically: "I will give a battalion of troops and weapons and equipment in exchange for your wife and children, are you willing?" ”

Zhan Shutang was stunned for a moment on the phone, and then laughed: "Brother, you misunderstood what I meant, what I said was that I would send a battalion of troops, and replace her with my 81st Division as an officer, at least give her a regiment commander to do it." ”

Only then did Sun Yumin know that he had misunderstood others, and said with a smile: "You are too much to promote this little guy." ”

After hanging up the phone in the exhibition hall, the two boulders hanging on Sun Yumin's heart finally put down one piece, the little girl is fine, what is the situation on Zhang Quan's side?

……

The people sent out by Uncle Gen and Captain Yang left all morning without bringing news.

This made the soldiers of the national army brought by Zhang Quan very anxious, and a few who waited impatiently gathered around Zhang Quan, and someone asked: "Captain, are these mud legs reliable?" Why has it been so long and there is no news? ”

Zhang Quan and the other two soldiers of the second battalion were not in a hurry at all, they looked very relaxed, seeing that Zhang Quan did not answer the words of others, a soldier said for him: "Put ten thousand hearts, people are familiar with every grass and tree here like their own backyard, they can't find it, and we will be even more blind." ”

Zhang Quan smiled and said to the questioning soldier, "What he said is what I want to say." ”

Uncle Gen and the people brought by Captain Yang gathered together, they didn't bother to stay with these national soldiers, if it wasn't for the orders of their superiors, how could they be with these "white dogs" they thought they thought.

It was already noon, and both sides began to prepare Chinese food on their own. Because Sun Yumin of the 20th Division did not withhold the military sound and food money, the living standards of the soldiers were relatively high.

The guerrillas were much worse on the other hand, boiling a large pot of water in an iron pot, pouring in a little cornmeal, and then putting some unknown wild vegetables and boiling them into a pot of wild vegetable paste, even so, it was not enough for half a bowl per person. Compared with the pot of soup made by the soldiers of the national army with canned beef, there is a lot of fried fragrant fried rice, which is one in the sky and one in the ground.

Zhang Quan and the three of them couldn't stand it, so they took off the food bag on their bodies, picked up the soup that had been fished by the soldiers of the national army and sent it over.

Uncle Gen was from the past, he smiled at Zhang Quan and the others, and then lowered his head to drink his corn paste. Captain Yang, the little girl, didn't appreciate it, and said in a loud voice: "How to bring it back, how to bring it back, although we are poor, we will not be so poor that we will not even lose our backbone." ”

Zhang Quan had no choice at all, seeing that this little girl was determined not to accept it, he had to walk up to her and said softly: "Comrade, the three of us are our own people, and we were sent by Yan'an. Seeing that she was about to shout loudly when she opened her mouth, Zhang Quan hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth and continued: "We are on a secret mission, don't make a noise, this matter can only be known to you and Uncle Gen." ”

Seeing the little girl captain nodding, he let go of his hand, and as soon as he got up, he suddenly felt a force coming from his back, and his body flew up and fell heavily to the ground.

Captain Yang watched Zhang Quan being kicked down by Chang Geng in his team, and quickly blocked in front of the big Chang Geng, and said angrily: "What are you doing? ”

"This white dog, he just bullied you." Chang Gung said.

"Captain Zhang is joking with me, don't you beat people in the future?" Captain Yang gave this stupid big look.

After she drove Chang Gung away, she quickly helped Zhang Quan up and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." Zhang Quan was very angry when he was kicked, but when he heard the conversation between the two on the ground, he realized that he was abrupt, and his anger suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he kept apologizing in his mouth: "I was not good just now, and I forgot that you were a woman." ”

Captain Yang didn't speak again, walked up to Uncle Gen, and whispered a few words in his ear. Uncle Gen listened to her and glanced at Zhang Quan and the three of them a few times, and as soon as Captain Yang finished speaking, he got up and walked over, and said to the guerrillas with a grin: "You have sent food, everyone is welcome, give it a share." ”

When the people on both sides were still eating, the people sent out came back one after another to report, but they didn't find the devil artillery, only the last group of people on Uncle Gen's side didn't come back, and I hope it's all at this point.

After resting for less than a quarter of an hour after dinner, the secret sentry sent out by Zhang Quan came back with a person, it was the person who did not come back from Uncle Gen's side, and he asked his sentry urgently: "What's the matter?" ”

The sentry replied, "This man is a runner, probably from running too far and too long, and he is tired." When he saw my uniform, he passed out after only one word. ”

"What?"

"He said to bring him to Uncle Gen." The sentry replied.

Uncle Gen was already beside the person who was placed on the ground, and kept shouting: "Pillar, wake up, pillar, you wake me up." ”

Captain Yang pulled away the crowd, squatted down, and pressed his thumb the person who had fainted on the ground, and in just one moment, the person called Zhuzi was woken up in pain.

When Uncle Gen saw this person wake up, his eyes lit up, and he asked hurriedly, "Pillar, have you found the devil's artillery position?" ”

"Uncle Gen, I found it, the devil's artillery position is in Ren Zhangzhuang." The pillar replied weakly.

"What? How could it be there? Uncle Gen was surprised. He stood up and said to one of the guerrillas next to him: "Bring the food left for the pillar and the soup." ”

Zhang Quan and Captain Yang also got up and asked Uncle Gen, "Where is Ren Zhangzhuang?" Why are you so surprised? ”

Uncle Gen didn't speak, he picked up a few stones of different sizes from the ground, put a larger stone on the ground, and said, "This is Juye County." Then he put another slightly larger stone on top of the stone representing the giant field, and said, "This is Qilin Town." Immediately afterward, Uncle Gen put a small stone on the upper left of the stone representing Qilin Town, and said, "This is where we are." He placed the last stone on the right side parallel to Qilin Town, and after placing the stone, he also drew a line next to the last stone, saying: "This is where Ren Zhangzhuang is located, and it is not far from the downstream of the Zhuzhao New River." ”

This simple map is clear and clear, Zhang Quan found the problem at a glance, he was a little puzzled, why would the devils set up the artillery position in such a remote place, and it was parallel to the infantry, aren't they afraid of encountering the Chinese army?

He can't understand, it doesn't mean that others can't understand, Uncle Gen tried to measure the distance from Qilin Town to Juye County with a withered branch, and then measured the distance from the next Zhangzhuang to Juye County, and finally took the artillery position of the devil in Zhangzhuang as the center point, drew a circle, this time Zhang Quan and Captain Yang both understood the devil's intentions, it turned out that the circle drawn by Uncle Gen framed Juye County and Qilin Town, this is a second move of the devil, no matter whether the national army is defending Juye City or counterattacking Qilin Town, as long as the gun sounds, All the troops will be exposed to their guns and become lambs to the slaughter.

Zhang Quan figured this out, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, he called over a soldier and said, "Hurry back and report to the division, the devil's artillery position is in Ren Zhangzhuang." ”

Uncle Gen was the most powerful of the people led by them, and when he saw that Zhang Quan and Captain Yang had no ideas, he immediately said: "Ren Zhangzhuang is nearly twenty kilometers away from here, and we have to pass through the devil's blockade and highway, so we have to set off quickly." ”

Zhang Quan and Captain Yang hurriedly agreed, and the three of them each straightened out their subordinates and set off together.

After more than two hours of rapid marching, they bypassed the devil blockade around Qilin Town, crossed two roads where the devil convoy was constantly passing by, and finally arrived near the devil artillery position mentioned by the pillar.

Renzhang Village is a relatively large village around it, with one or two hundred households, and most of the people in the village are surnamed Ren and Zhang, so it is called Renzhang Village.

About one kilometer south of the village is the Suzhao New River, and about two kilometers southwest is another village called Renli Village; There is a large forest in the west of Renzhang Village, and there is a large open field between the forest and the village, which was originally a wheat field, but now it has been made an artillery position by the devils, and there are twenty or thirty artillery pieces standing on the position; At the east end of the village is a larger field, which is also the foundation for the survival of the villagers of Renzhang Village; To the north of the village is the entrance to the village, and the only dirt road leads from this zigzag path to the rest of the city.

Zhang Quan and the others led the pillar to the periphery of Renzhang Village, and after settling and hiding the soldiers, they let the pillar take them to a high point, and from the telescope he saw a few gun barrels in the corner of the devil's artillery position, as well as the devil's trenches and heavy fire points around the artillery position, three layers inside and three layers outside.

Zhang Quan saw that the defense was so tight, not only did he gasp in his heart, not to mention that his strength was not enough to fill the gaps between his teeth, and it would be useless to come another regiment.

Just when the three of them were at a loss, they heard a rapid whistle on the devil artillery position from a distance, and Zhang Quan chuckled in his heart, the devil artillery was about to open fire.

Captain Yang was a little girl after all, and she was a little nervous after hearing the whistle, and asked anxiously, "Did the devil find us?" ”

Uncle Gen also looked at Zhang Quan with concern on his face, waiting for his answer.

"No, the devils didn't find us, this whistle is their assembly sound, they are about to open fire, but they don't know where to shoot." Zhang Quan replied, and he sighed: "As soon as the cannon sounds, the troops who don't know where will suffer again." ”

Sure enough, just when Zhang Quan kept remembering the deployment of troops and the distribution point of heavy firepower in the devil's trench, a loud "boom" came from the artillery position, and they were startled when they were so far away, and their eardrums were also shocked to a faint pain.

Zhang Quan said to Uncle Gen and the three of them: "This is the first test shot, after the devil corrects the impact point, it will be a formal shelling, you must open your mouth later, otherwise your hearing will be damaged." ”

"We can't let them open fire like this!" Uncle Gen didn't listen to what Zhang Quan said, and muttered a sentence in his mouth.

Seeing that Zhang Quan, Captain Yang, and the pillar were all staring at him, he said again: "As soon as the shell is fired, a large number of soldiers on the position will fall, and we have to find a way to speed up and kill this position." ”

Captain Yang's face was full of sadness, and he said: "Uncle Gen, you see, no matter which side you attack the devil's position, there is such a large open field, and forcibly attacking can only become a live target for the devil soldiers, and you can't fight it." ”

The pillar echoed her words on the side: "Yes, Uncle Gen, before we can rush forward, we all have to die on the way to the charge." ”

Uncle Gen sighed and said, "We will throw this little person into it, as long as we can knock out this artillery position, it will be worth it." ”

For a few minutes after the first shell was fired, no further fire was heard, and the only thing that could only be done was to keep busy with the ghost soldiers around the artillery.

Captain Yang suddenly said: "If it is in Jiaxiang, I will definitely go to touch the devil's nest." ”

"How do you touch it?" Zhang Quan said angrily: "This frame, even a bird can't fly over, let alone a person!" ”

Captain Yang raised his eyebrows and replied unceremoniously: "People and birds can't get by, but rats and pangolins can." ”

A sentence woke up the person in the dream, Uncle Gen seemed to think of something, and said to the pillar: "Go and find Zhao Laofu and Da Xizi." I remember they said that their village ......" Seeing Zhang Quan and Captain Yang looking at him with surprised eyes, he explained: "These two people are from this village. ”

As soon as he heard that there might be a way, Zhang Quan almost jumped up with excitement, put his arm on Uncle Gen's shoulder and said, "If you can break the devil's artillery position, I will ask my superiors to give you credit, then you will be regarded as a hit." ”

Uncle Gen shook his head with a wry smile and said, "What's the use of asking for credit, as long as I can drive the devils out of China from Juye, Jining, Shandong, I'd rather die here." ”

"Uncle Gen, don't talk nonsense, we'll all be fine. The devil artillery will also be killed by us. Captain Yang saw that Uncle Gen was a little in a low mood and was busy comforting.

Boom, boom......

Before her words fell, a huge cannon sound sounded on the devil's artillery position, different from the previous test firing of only one cannon, this was a series of shells, twenty or thirty guns fired shells one after another, with a sharp scream of breaking through the air, falling into the distance I don't know which piece of the national army position.

The loud sound made it impossible for the three people who were close to them to communicate in words, and Zhang Quan made a retreat gesture and took the lead in slipping down from the place.

Uncle Gen asked the two people who were looking for the pillar to be brought to the front of the servants, and got exciting news from their mouths, as early as more than half a year ago, the tunnels of Ren Zhang Village and Ren Li Village were all repaired to the forest, because the same surname is the majority, and the tunnels of the two villages are connected together in the forest. Because Ren Zhangzhuang is a big village, there are at least two tunnels that pass under the devil's artillery position, and the slight trouble is that there is no exit left in this open space, if you want to attack the devil, you have to re-open your mouth, and it is a big problem to open the exit and not let the devil find out in advance.
