Chapter Fifty-Nine: Camouflage Surprise Attack!

For the Japanese soldiers who were sent to the countryside and stationed in the towns, they seemed to like such a mission. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn the past, when they were in the county seat, they could only watch their bosses take advantage of them, and they didn't have anything to do with them.

But after being sent out alone to carry out missions, they became the overlords of each township and town. The people of the whole township were allowed to be taken by them. As long as you don't kill a lot, it will be fine in the eyes of many little devils.

Especially this time, they were sent to the countryside to collect food, and the food that the security chiefs appointed by the Japanese army entertained them with food, which also greatly satisfied many little devils. Often, after eating and drinking, you can also get some additional benefits.

In the name of maintaining local security, these little devils sent to the countryside can be regarded as having reaped enough benefits. Even if a lot of little devils know that they are not popular. But they also knew that the local people were very afraid of them.

As the garrison officer issued an order to raise their vigilance and not to go out at will, some Japanese soldiers felt that the little devils stationed in Zhangzhuang were too incompetent. If it weren't for their incompetence, maybe they would have been able to go out and reap the benefits of the past.

Liucheng Township, which is the closest to Zhangzhuang, although the geographical location is not as good as Zhangzhuang. However, there are a lot of grain fields in this township, and it is also the key area of the Japanese army's grain requisition. The Japanese troops who were dispatched here also inspected several villages with a large number of grain fields.

Although these Japanese soldiers knew that there were troop activities of the Jin Sui Army near Liucheng Township. But this time, they organized a targeted sweeping operation and directly defeated the main battalion of the Jin Sui Army stationed near Liucheng.

In the eyes of many Japanese troops, although the Jin Sui Army was a fighting force with good combat effectiveness in China. But since they advanced into Shanxi, the Jin Sui army could also be said to have been defeated and defeated under their powerful attack.

Such a defeated general, many little devils look down on it in their hearts. During the period when they were stationed in Liucheng Township, they also did not see the troops of the Jin Sui Army dare to attack the township office where they were stationed.

In fact, as many Japanese troops knew. Since the loss of Taiyuan, Shanxi, the real main force of the Jin Sui army is concentrated in Linfen and other places, and most of the Jin Sui army now stationed in Yushe was formed by the defeated army.

These troops have all fought with the little devils, and they know how strong the little devils' combat effectiveness is. Under normal circumstances, these troops of the Jin Sui Army did not dare to provoke the little devils easily, but hoped to divide the area with the little devils.

It's just that Jin Suijun didn't expect that they wanted to maintain a confrontation with the little devils, but the Eighth Route Army would come over and intervene. After Zhao Tiehu set his sights on Liu Chengxiang, he quickly put it into action.

Considering that the little devils have been checking strangers in and out of the township recently, they are very strong. Zhao Tiehu, who arrived in Liucheng Township, did not enter the township office to reconnoiter at the first time, but walked around the vicinity of the township office.

In the process of reconnaissance, Zhao Tiehu also began to plan to attack from there tonight. After the attack, it is better to retreat from that direction. In addition, the possible accidents during the battle are also in his consideration.

Looking at the scouts beside him, Zhao Tiehu also asked in a timely manner: "How far is the nearest Jin Sui army from here?" Is it possible for them to come over and join in the fun after we do it? ”

"Captain, I don't know much about this situation, maybe the second company commander knows better. It's just that you also know that our relationship with Jin Suijun is actually not very good. Although there is no friction, they are all wary of each other in private!

Earlier, the Jin Sui army deployed a main battalion of troops here, but later it was attacked by the little devils, and the entire main battalion was defeated. Although the little devil left after the sweep, the Jin Suijun should not dare to get too close to the countryside!

During this time, the little devils in the countryside patrolled several nearby villages, and they didn't hear any actions from the Jin Sui army. They are probably frightened by the little devils, so they dare to take the initiative to come over and join in the fun! ’

Listening to the scout's analysis, Zhao Tiehu thought for a while and said, "This matter must also be guarded against!" Later, if the commander of the second company arrives, let them set up a few teams of sentry posts nearby. Before the battle is over, no one is allowed to approach the battlefield. ”

'Yes, Captain! ’

As a soldier of later generations, Zhao Tiehu knew more or less that in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the Eighth Route Army had a lot of friction with the Jin Sui Army and the National * Army in Shanxi. Even if there were no large-scale battles, the private confrontation never stopped.

Even if Zhao Tiehu didn't think about making trouble with other anti-Japanese war forces, he hated people who were still engaged in infighting and friction when this kind of nation was dying. In his opinion, being more careful is not a bad thing.

If when they launched an attack, the Jin Sui army came over and intervened, who would be credited with this credit then? Even if this kind of credit is not uncommon for Zhao Tiehu, but how will the captured loot be divided at that time?

After all, the life of the Jin Sui Army at this stage is actually not very good. Even if they are local factions in Shanxi, the sustainable defeat will also make many Shanxi people disappointed in them. If it weren't for the support of the Nationalist Government, they wouldn't have survived until now.

After completing the pre-war reconnaissance, Zhao Tiehu found that the Japanese puppet army stationed in Liucheng had more alert forces deployed in the countryside. There are not many patrols deployed on the periphery, and even if there are occasional patrols, most of them are puppet troops.

According to the situation investigated by the scouts, most of the puppet troops in these township offices were composed of young men who had taken refuge in the homes of some little devil squires. To put it mildly, most of these puppet soldiers were doing household work before carrying guns.

Considering that the situation in Liucheng Township is different from that of Zhangzhuang, the Japanese army is more concentrated in the township office, and there are many residential houses around. In order to avoid affecting the people in the countryside during the battle, Zhao Tiehu finally decided to carry out a camouflage surprise attack.

Looking at the scout, he said, "Go and see, the deputy detachment leader, they are there." I'll take people first, and then get closer to feel the situation. If we can control the puppet army patrol, it should be easier for us to take down the little devils next. ”

'Yes, Captain, I'll let you know. What will we do if the deputy detachment commander arrives? ’

'Wait here!' If we succeed, I'll send someone to call you!" ’

After giving some orders, Zhao Tiehu led the remaining action team members to pick an area where the puppet army patrol passed and lurked. Considering that it was still dark, Zhao Tiehu did not take immediate action.

Until the sky was getting dark, Zhao Tiehu found an intersection where the patrol passed, and asked everyone to put on the camouflage clothes made in the mountains before, lying in the low grass passing by, waiting for the arrival of the puppet army patrol at any time.

When the implementation of the lurk, Zhao Tiehu also confessed: "Wait a minute, you all remember, don't shoot at will." What we have to do is to force these puppet soldiers to lay down their arms and surrender. As for the puppet army that dares to resist, I'll take care of it later.

Remember, as soon as I get up, you have to get up as soon as possible. As long as there is an encirclement of these puppet armies, with the courage of these puppet armies, I believe they will not dare to resist to the end. If you don't use your guns, you'll be half the battle! ”

'Yes, Captain! ’

Looking at the previous in the mountains, Zhao Tiehu used tree vines and some weeds to temporarily compile a mountain camouflage suit for everyone. After everyone lay down, Zhao Tiehu deliberately checked it again, and re-added grass to the obviously exposed position.

After confirming that it was difficult to find the people lying under the road in the case of poor sight, Zhao Tiehu also found a place to hide. Next, what they have to do is quietly wait for the puppet army patrol to pass by.

According to Zhao Tiehu's analysis, the place where they were lurking should be a necessary place for the puppet army's peripheral patrols. It's just that it's not clear how often the puppet army patrols, so they have to wait patiently.

When Zhao Tiehu led people to ambush on the side of the patrol road, Liu Cheng also pulled his troops to the hillside not far from his hometown to stand by. As for the second company that was invited, it was also not far from them at this moment, and it didn't take long for them to converge with Liu Cheng.

The scouts, who had been on standby nearby, also gave a brief introduction to the situation. After listening to the scout's report, Chen Shanming, the commander of the second company, said directly: "Okay, since it is what your captain ordered, then we must cooperate well." ”

Liu Cheng, who was staying on the side, interjected at the right time: "Chen Lian, you said that after Jin Suijun heard the gunshots, is it possible to come over?" ”

'Probably unlikely!' Some time ago, the little devil caught them off guard. Since that sneak attack, the Jin Sui army did not dare to set up their troops in this vicinity, and their troops stayed in the mountains more.

Although we don't usually deal with each other much, but tonight is our action, they want to come and pick peaches, how can they let them succeed! Don't worry, as long as they dare to come, I will stop them. Just wait for the attack, really don't you need our help? ’

Regarding the task assigned by Zhao Tiehu to the second company, Chen Shanming always felt that it was a little too easy. Even if there are two platoons of troops around Liu Cheng at this moment, in Chen Shanming's opinion, it is somewhat difficult to capture the place where a Japanese squad is stationed.

But when Liu Cheng heard this, he still smiled and said: "Chen Lian, our captain is good at sneak attacks, and if there are many people, it is easy to expose the target." If they can deal with the patrolling puppet army and let us get close to the township office, the little devils will definitely not be able to stop it.

This time I brought all the veterans of the detachment, as well as the guard company of the battalion headquarters, plus four grenadiers of the little devils. If you really want to fight, the township office where the little devils are stationed will definitely not be able to stop it for too long! ”

After several victories, Liu Cheng also had great confidence in fighting a small squad of the Japanese army. After all, in the last ambush battle, the little devil who died at the hands of Zhao Tiehu alone, I am afraid that there will be at least one squad!
