Chapter 51: Get Ready for Action!

The railway guerrillas won the first battle, and Zhao Tiehu, who had high hopes for this guerrilla force, also breathed a sigh of relief. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIn fact, when he chose to come to Zaozhuang to establish an anti-Japanese base area, he thought that he must form this meritorious guerrilla force.

Even if the second detachment is currently stationed on Weishan Island, Zhao Tiehu also hopes that someone will remember the story of the Anti-Japanese War that happened on this island and the lake area in the future. These heroic stories in childhood memories, Zhao Tiehu didn't want to disappear because of his arrival.

With the success of the first battle, with the subsequent run-in of the troops, I believe that the road below the railway guerrillas will be much easier. As the head of the task force, Zhao Tiehu's eyes naturally cannot be all on one guerrilla force.

As long as the railway guerrillas feel the importance he attaches to them, Zhao Tiehu believes that the military and political backbones who have been selected as commanders in the past will also bring out this guerrilla force and make it a flying tiger soldier on the railway line.

Just when Zhao Tiehu was keeping an eye on the little devil's actions in the power plant and coal mine, Tan Changze, who was in charge of reconnaissance and intelligence collection, finally found out that the little devil had already shipped a batch of machinery and equipment from the direction of Beiping and was about to arrive in Zaozhuang.

Zhao Tiehu, who learned of this situation, wanted to rob the train loaded with a large amount of machinery and equipment. But he knew that these mechanical equipment fell into his hands and could only be used as scrap metal in the end.

With the current situation of the Eighth Route Army, it is very difficult to transport these huge machines. If you want to use these machines, you don't have the conditions to do that. Therefore, all he could do was to rush to destroy this batch of valuable supplies.

Whether it is power generation equipment or mining equipment, even if it is produced by small devils, the corresponding cost is not cheap. In Zhao Tiehu's opinion, if this batch of valuable equipment is blown up, I believe that the little devil will also feel pain.

To some extent, it can also have the benefit of killing two birds with one stone. It not only caused the little devil to lose a batch of equipment, but also made the little devil's factory unable to recover in a short time. Toss a few more times like this, and it is estimated that the little devil will also jump off the wall.

Summoning the special operations detachment that was training in Yufengling, Zhao Tiehu said calmly: "Comrades, your first actual combat training mission is here. I just received information that the little devil transported a batch of power generation and mining equipment from Beiping.

The value of this batch of equipment is very expensive, and the effect on the little devils is naturally great. In order to keep our coal mine resources from being stolen by the little devils, I decided to send you to destroy this batch of equipment so that the little devils could not start working.

In order to avoid irritating the little devils, I decided to take a special operation approach to complete the mission. And there is only one goal of this mission, which is to blow up this batch of equipment transported from Beiping, are you confident? ā€

'Yes! ’

'Good! Next, the reconnaissance team went into the city and worked with our comrades at the underground station to find out the time of the arrival of the little devil train. In addition, the blasting team went to the railway line into the coal mine in advance to plant explosives and waited for the order to start the explosion.

The ambush site should also be chosen, bring the mines we brought with us the previous time, and choose the terrain around the ambush site. Once the little devils learn that the train has been attacked, the little devils gathered around are bound to attack wildly.

And at this stage, we are not suitable for an all-out war with the little devils. Therefore, in this operation, we must not only complete the task, but also think of a good plan to get out safely. Therefore, comrades have to cheer up, understand? ’

'Understood! ’

'Alright, the captains of the squads stay, and the others are ready to act!' ’

'Yes, Captain! ’

As Zhao Tiehu assigned combat tasks, the members of the special operations detachment, who had been training for a long time, were also eager to see how their training results were during this time. After gathering a few squad leaders and re-discussing the battle plan, Zhao Tiehu quickly led people out of Yufeng Ridge.

Regarding the departure of Zhao Tiehu and his party, Zhu Zixi also didn't ask too much. He knows very well that if there is a need for the cooperation of the third team, Zhao Tiehu will also issue the corresponding task. If not, just stick to your post.

Doing a good job is also something that Zhao Tiehu has always emphasized. Don't look at the three-point team's development now, but compared with the powerful little devils, their gap is still far away, and there are still many things that need to be improved.

By the time Zhao Tiehu went down the mountain and lurked at a guerrilla station near the coal mine, Tan Changze, who had been notified in advance, had been waiting here for a long time. For Zhao Tiehu's arrival, the guerrilla fighters were undoubtedly very happy.

With the tremendous improvement of the strength of the task force in Zaozhuang, Tan Changze, as the person in charge of intelligence, with the full support of Zhao Tiehu, also established a well-organized underground intelligence network with a large number of personnel.

From the puppet army to some puppet government officials, there are also some ordinary people, and even some little devils' foreign banks and train station staff. Every intelligence officer who has been recruited into the team is providing a steady stream of information to the task force.

Compared with the dark eyes when I first came to Zaozhuang, today's task force has established underground transportation stations in all counties under Zaozhuang's rule. Even in some towns and villages where there are no little devils stationed, there are also intelligence officers of the Eighth Route Army who are collecting information.

In addition to the lack of rapid transmission of intelligence, Zhao Tiehu was still very satisfied with the intelligence network he had established. In terms of messaging, it is more due to the lack of radio stations and professional dispatchers.

In this kind of thing, even if Zhao Tiehu wants to do it, it is impossible to devote such valuable equipment and personnel to the construction of the intelligence network in a short period of time. But for the relevant personnel, he still asked Chen Wan to help with the training.

After all, in the future, even if these people are not trained in Zaozhuang, they can be successively transported to cities around Shandong. In that case, perhaps in the near future, the Eighth Route Army will be able to weave a powerful intelligence network in Shandong.

After listening to Tan Changze's report, Zhao Tiehu also said in a timely manner: "The little devil near the coal mine has no movement, right?" ā€

'Not yet! However, where is the detachment leader going to start? As soon as the train transporting the equipment arrives, it is estimated that it will go directly to the coal mine. And with such a valuable thing, the little devil will definitely send troops to escort it.

Some of the headaches are that we can't find out exactly when the train will arrive for the time being. If we could know the time when the train arrived in Zaozhuang, maybe we could have robbed the train in Tengxian. ’

'Stealing those devices is useless for us right now. Those equipment need fuel and electricity. And the equipment is very heavy, and if you rely on people and horses to carry it, it will be difficult to transport it into the mountains unless it is disassembled into parts.

So, what we're going to do is find a way to blow up these devices. And the place where you do it can't be in the city, and you can't let the train reach the mining area. Find a place to start on this railway from the city to the mines! ’

'Ahh Blown up? That's all good stuff! ’

Hearing that Zhao Tiehu planned to blow up those valuable equipment, Tan Changze felt a little pity. But he also understands that Zhao Tiehu's concerns are very reasonable. Unless you can get the supplies to the rear, it won't do much to grab them.

For Tan Changze's pity, Zhao Tiehu didn't know how valuable this batch of equipment was. If this batch of equipment can be transported back to the rear or even Yan'an, I believe that those leaders in Yan'an will be very happy.

But in such a year, if you want to transport such bulky equipment to Yan'an, anyone with a little brain knows that it is impossible at all. Therefore, blowing it up is the wisest choice!

After explaining this, Zhao Tiehu continued: "Let's have an intelligence officer in the power plant and the coal mine to pay attention to what arrangements the little devil has in the near future. In addition, let the guerrillas operating in the vicinity also be prepared accordingly.

Once we start the operation, it is estimated that the little devils stationed in the mining area will launch another large-scale sweep. Later, send a telegram to the third division, and send two companies from them to strengthen the defense of the secret camp.

As soon as our side moved, the partisans began to move the masses. If the little devils are entangled at that time, I don't mind commanding the third detachment and fighting the little devils in the mining area. ā€

'Okay, I'll take care of these things!' ’

After thinking about the attack and the aftermath, Zhao Tiehu personally led the special operations detachment to find a suitable place for ambush and blockade along the railway line. Not far in front of the ambush site, the explosives carried were buried under the railroad tracks.

Taking advantage of this time, when the little devil coal mine had not resumed work and the little devil did not patrol much, Zhao Tiehu built some defensive and hidden fortifications at the ambush site. As soon as the little devil's train came, a surprise attack was launched.

Fortunately, this time, the little devil didn't let Zhao Tiehu wait too long. Recently, there has been no movement, and the little devils stationed in the mining area suddenly dispatched a squadron with the puppet army and began to deploy along the railway line.

This move, combined with the news received earlier, Zhao Tiehu knew no matter how stupid he was, and the train transporting the equipment was only afraid that it was coming. It seems that the little devil is also worried that someone will sabotage the railway, so he will send troops to guard the railway line in advance.

It's just that the little devils also didn't expect that someone was ready for the railway line earlier than them. Seeing the little devil patrol that suddenly appeared near the ambush site, many special combat team members also felt very depressed.

Only Zhao Tiehu said calmly: "Okay!" Before the train arrived, they let them patrol if they were willing to patrol. When the train departs from Zaozhuang, we will start and kill these little devils first.

In this case, the train from Zaozhuang is estimated to be even more unprepared. When the time comes, as soon as we explode here, even if the little devils in the neighborhood hear the movement, we will be able to throw explosives into those carriages. ā€

Judging from the situation of the little devils' defense, a squadron of little devils and puppet troops are scattered on this railway line dedicated to transporting coal, which is also very sparse. This kind of arming can only play the role of early warning.

And the special operations detachment led by Zhao Tiehu only needs to find a breakthrough battle and quickly blow up the equipment on the train to withdraw from the battle. In such a short period of time, even if the little devil knew that the train was attacked, he was afraid that he would not be able to save the fire from far away!
