Chapter Seventy-Four: Surround a group, block a group, and fight a group
After receiving the information from the underground transportation station, the little devils who had been nesting in Zaozhuang and Lincheng also began to encircle the territory of Weishan. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhao Tiehu, who was far away at the detachment headquarters, knew that he had successfully diverted the attention of the little devil.
Listening to the scouts begin to report, the little devils stationed in Shanting Township swept the troops and began to retreat in an orderly manner. Zhao Tiehu knew that after hiding for so many days, they could finally show their skills again and bite the little devil fiercely.
According to the information received earlier, the actual strength of the little devils who entered the mountain pavilion this time was nearly a wing. There are really a lot of puppet army troops equipped with little devils.
Although Shanting Township is very poor, the area is not small, and even many villages are built in the mountains. This time, the little devil ordered to end the sweep and forced in the direction of Weishan, which means that the little devil's evacuation operation will also take a lot of time.
Now the little devil wants to play the tactics of encircling the two roads, but Zhao Tiehu wants to implement the tactics of dividing and annihilating. At least the little devil who entered Shanting Township this time wants to follow up and withdraw as smoothly as he came, which is almost impossible.
The troops who were responsible for following their palace and the rear of their palace earlier, are now urgently transferred to Xigang Town. As soon as these troops retreated, it meant that the little devils who had entered Shanting Township wanted to leave smoothly, but they were afraid that it was unlikely.
'Dabao, inform the guerrillas and the armed forces to carry out attack tactics for me. In the sections of the road where the little devils are likely to pass, all the mines are deployed in a large area. Send out the reconnaissance team of the detachment and keep an eye on the movements of the little devils. ’
'Yes, Captain! ’
After the order was conveyed, Zhao Tiehu took the main force of a detachment and began to sneak out of the mountain forest that had been resting for many days. For going out of the mountain again, the soldiers of the troops who had rested for many days seemed to be full of energy and in high spirits.
The infantry brigade that ambushed the little devils before really made many recruits and soldiers who joined the detachment feel that it was a wise decision for them to join the Eighth Route Army. Even if the Eighth Route Army is not paid, they still feel happy.
The most fundamental point is that similar to today's Shanting Township, there are basically no squires and landlords. Even if the squires who are usually more prestigious in the township belong to their fields, Zhao Tiehu basically spent money to buy them.
The squires who really refused to sell, Zhao Tiehu also asked people to do work for these squires to reduce the rent of the tenants, so that the people of Shanting Township could indeed feel the benefits brought to them by the Eighth Route Army.
Coupled with the material policy implemented by Zhao Tiehu in the base area, even if the people do not go out of the countryside, they still do not have to worry about not being able to buy the materials urgently needed at home. In general, today's Shanting Township is basically completely decided by the Eighth Route Army.
Many families with young laborers are willing to send their children to the army. The reason is that Zhao Tiehu does not pay ordinary soldiers, but gives them a certain amount of rent-free and living material subsidies.
This kind of real benefit of making the common people really feel the glory of the whole family when one person joins the army, and it also makes many people in Shanting Township send their young people to the army. With the addition of these new recruits, the expansion of the army is a matter of course.
More than 2,000 little devils were scattered in Ruoda's Shanting Township, except for the Japanese army in charge of commanding Nakasa, who carried a radio station. Most of the other scattered little devils need to be responsible for informing the retreat through cavalry and manpower.
When the little devil sent signal troops to convey the retreat order, the scouts of the task force also began to give orders to the guerrilla military engineering teams to prepare to block the attack. And soon, the location of the little devil's command was locked.
I learned that the little devil headquarters garrisoned nearly 1,000 Japanese puppet troops, and occupied a large village as a temporary headquarters station. Zhao Tiehu found Song Dabao and asked him to transfer a main company to cooperate with the village-level militia team in that village to carry out the operation.
The rest of the troops launched a corresponding ambush around the location of the little devil's headquarters. In Zhao Tiehu's opinion, once the little devil headquarters is attacked, I believe that other little devils scattered outside will also desperately rush back to support.
And what Zhao Tiehu has to do is to find a good favorable terrain and annihilate these little devils who have been driven back one after another. Wait for the little devils on the periphery to be cleared, and then carry out the final siege and annihilation of the little devils trapped in the village.
After listening to Zhao Tiehu's combat deployment, Song Dabao also smiled and said: "Detachment leader, this trick is called encirclement and reinforcement, right?" ”
'Nice! That village is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if we are to attack, we will have to divide a lot of troops to block it. In this way, it is somewhat insufficient for our current troops.
Therefore, they were trapped in Hujiabao first, and after letting the other little devils know the news, they rushed over to rescue them one after another. Most importantly, according to the order conveyed by the little devils, they were to converge first and then retreat.
As long as we ambush around the village, wait for those little devils who have withdrawn to return, and then wipe them out as quickly as possible, I believe we will gain something. Clean up the little devils on the periphery first, and then clean up these little devils trapped in the village. ’
'Yes, understood!' I'll arrange it! ’
Taking advantage of the cover of night, a company of the first detachment, led by the militia of Hujiabao village, began to lay mines around the village. The perimeter is covered by a large force, and the militia and the soldiers who planted the mines can also lay mines with confidence.
Just looking at the large number of mines carried, the militia in the village was a little worried and said: "Comrade, these mines have been buried, how can we go back in the future?" ”
'Rest assured! These thunders are used to besiege the little devils, and if the little devils can't step on them cleanly, we will also send someone to take them out. Those places were mined, and we will all remember them. You can rest assured about this! ’
Landmines are sometimes a double-edged sword for troops. Fortunately, when Zhao Tiehu launched a sweep of the little devils, he did not arrange for the guerrillas to use landmines on a large scale. As a result, there are still a lot of mines stockpiled at Headquarters.
At present, most of these mines are buried around the village of Hujiabao. As long as people can pass, the warriors have buried mines. In addition, the soldiers who had planted the mines also built blocking fortifications at the exit outside the village.
The company responsible for laying mines, their next task is to block the little devils who may break out of the village. If there are mines to act as sentries for them, they can also safely hide in the distance and spend time with these little devils.
And at this moment, several squadrons of little devils who were ordered to start returning, looking at the safe mountain road when entering the mountain, always stepped on mines on the way back. The officer with a little devil said: "Baga! It seems that the Dirt Eight Road doesn't want us to retreat! ”
'Squadron leader, what should I do?' If we continue to delay like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to meet the commander on time! ’
Facing the worries of his squad leader, looking at the soldiers who were constantly injured and killed by mines, the squadron leader of the little devil also had a headache. But in the current situation, he really can't think of a good way.
Until one of the squad leaders said very insidiously: "Squadron leader, there is another way that may work!" ”
'What's the solution?' ’
'Isn't there another squadron of the Imperial Allied Army that cooperates with our actions?' Wait and find a time for them to go ahead and be in charge of minesweeping. In any case, we must get out of this village as soon as possible. ’
Let the puppet army act as a humanoid minesweeper weapon, which is the method that this little devil squad leader came up with. Although this is done, there will definitely be many puppet soldiers who will die for this. But in the eyes of the squad leader, it was all worth it.
After all, even if the entire puppet army company is killed, it will be a success to ensure that they can get out of the mountains safely and join the main force. When the time comes, I believe that the command will not blame them either. No matter how many Imperial Allies die, the little devils will not feel distressed.
In the face of the squad leader's suggestion, the other squad leaders were also dazzled, even if the little devil squadron leader was a little struggling. can think that if he can't meet the main force on time, he also needs to take responsibility, and there will even be greater risks.
Therefore, the next morning, the Imperial Association Army was confiscated by the little devils, and they were rushed by these little devils to step on the mines. Faced with the threat that if you don't step on the mine, you will die, and if you step on the mine, you may be able to pick up a life, these puppet soldiers can only grit their teeth with tears in the end.
The guerrillas who stayed near the minefield couldn't help but grit their teeth when they saw this scene and said: "These little devils are really ruthless!" ”
'Well deserved! Who calls these yellow skins bad for anything, but they are lackeys for the little devils. Since he is a lackey, he deserves to be abandoned by his master! Brothers, aim a little later, and focus on those little devils. ’
'Yes, Captain! ’
Even if the guerrilla leaders sympathize with these puppet troops, their task is to stop these little devils who are delaying their preparation to go out of the mountains to join the large army. Therefore, whoever steps on the thunder, all they have to do is stall for time.
While watching the little devil hit the thunder, he put a cold gun from time to time. In short, it is to make the road out of the mountain for these little devils to become extremely bloody and slow. And the little devil wants to get out of the mountain, this road is not short!
Situations like this have occurred on many mountain village roads in Shanting Township. According to Zhao Tiehu's order, for some little devils who went into the mountains to search and sweep, the tactics of blocking and attacking were implemented, and some of them were allowed to withdraw safely.
These little devils who had safely withdrawn and were rushing to Hujiabao to join the main force were always under the supervision of a reconnaissance team of a detachment. According to the strength of these little devils, Zhao Tiehu also adjusted the number of ambush troops accordingly.
In a word, according to Zhao Tiehu's order, when ambushing these little devils, who are mostly squadrons, you must be fast, accurate, and ruthless. As soon as the opponent enters the ambush circle, it immediately gives a thunder blow.
Encircling a group, blocking a group, and fighting a group are Zhao Tiehu's tactical principles. In this case, two squadrons of little devils soon entered the ambush circle set by a detachment.
Because everything went smoothly on the return trip, the little devils of the two squadrons did not expect that not far from their main force, the main force of the Eighth Route Army had set up an ambush circle waiting for them. By the time the reaction came, it was too late!
