Chapter Twenty-Five: The Next Combat Goal!
As Zhao Tiehu led people into the Evil Dragon Ridge to form a guerrilla detachment, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were transferred over, after a day or two of getting along, gradually felt that Zhao Tiehu was not so unreasonable, and he was angry and scolding people at every turn.

In fact, after being stationed in the cottage, many soldiers were able to see Zhao Tiehu who came out from time to time to check the sentry when they were on duty at night. As a detachment leader, it is actually very rare to be able to do this.
On the second day of hunting, Zhao Tiehu did not organize any training, but instead took the soldiers of the detachment and began to repair the previously destroyed cottage fortifications. The fortifications were also repaired in order to be prepared.
As for the prey caught in the mountains, Liu Cheng personally led people to escort them back to Sanlian. Looking at the prey carried by the soldiers, the company commander Zhu Chengxi was also very happy and said, "Liu Cheng, why are you back?" What's going on with these? ”
'Company commander, instructor, good! This is the result of our hunting in the mountains yesterday, and Team Zhao asked me to carry some back to give the soldiers more food. In addition, the battalion headquarters also sent a wild boar of about 300 catties over. ’
Zhu Chengxi, who heard Liu Cheng's report, also smiled and said: "I really can't imagine that there is so much game in the Evil Dragon Ridge!" ”
"Company commander, it's not called Evil Dragon Ridge now. Last night, Team Zhao held a meeting with us to discuss and rename it Hutou Mountain. And our detachment will be called the Hutou Mountain Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment in the future. ’
'Hutou Mountain! Well, it sounds really appropriate, with Zhao Tiehu as your head, this tiger head is also suitable. However, do you have a lot of ammunition stockpiles now? Hunting with bullets, too loser, right? ’
This was not said by Zhu Chengxi, but by Song Jun on the side. Listening to Song Jun's inquiry, Liu Cheng still smiled and said, "Instructor, in fact, this is also a kind of training. According to Team Zhao's meaning, the marksmanship of our fighters needs to be strengthened.
Through this way of hunting, the soldiers not only have the opportunity to shoot live ammunition, but also hunt some game for the troops. Speaking of which, the area around Hutou Mountain has been occupied by bandits for so many years, and there are really a lot of beasts!
It's just that Team Zhao also said that this kind of training can't be done too much, even if you hunt, you have to go into the mountains once in a while. Otherwise, go hunting every day, or it won't be long before the wild beasts on the mountain will be gone. ”
Zhao Tiehu also understood the truth of drying up and fishing, and Song Jun, who heard this, also felt that it made sense. After beckoning the soldiers of the company and moving the prey into the warehouse for storage, the two also ordered Liu Cheng to enter the company headquarters.
At this time, Sun Jie, the captain of the first detachment who carried more than 200 catties of dissected wild boar, also arrived at the camp headquarters. Looking at the meat brought by Sun Jie and others, the battalion commander instructor, who hadn't eaten meat for a while, also felt very happy.
'Yes! Your little life seems to be better than ours! ’
"Battalion commander, instructor, this is what Team Zhao ordered us to carry on our backs, saying that the comrades in the battalion headquarters should also have more food. The prey was shot yesterday, and this is all meat dissected by a wild boar, which weighs about 200 catties!
Because the weather has been a bit hot lately, we also salted it when we came back. In addition, this is a letter from Team Zhao asking me to forward it to the battalion commander, hoping to get the approval of the battalion headquarters. In two days, the detachment is afraid that there will be action. ’
'Oh! Have you found the purpose of your action? ’
Qian Weizhong, who was very curious, asked Sun Jie to send the meat he carried back to the cooking class, and ordered the officers and soldiers of the battalion headquarters to be fed tonight. also led Sun Jie into the camp headquarters, and quickly opened Zhao Tiehu's handwritten letter.
After reading the above instructions from Zhao Tiehu, Qian Weizhong said with a little surprise: "Do you want to fight the idea of the bandits in Yingziyan?" ”
'Hmmm! What Team Zhao means is that our detachment is not a short distance from the third company and the battalion headquarters, and if we walk, it will be very troublesome to communicate back and forth. The most important thing is that even if you go out to fight in the future, walking on two legs will somewhat delay the fighter.
In the detachment there was a bandit recruit who had gone before anyway, and he knew something about Eagle Rock. The most important thing is that the gang of bandits in Eagle Rock has horses, and there are quite a few of them. I even heard that the little devil wanted to recruit this gang of horse bandits.
Team Zhao felt that if the detachment wanted to develop and grow in the future, it must continue to capture materials and weapons through battles, and make the detachment famous through battles. In this way, we can also attract some young people to join our team.
Moreover, the gang of bandits Yingziyan has been a disaster in Yushe for many years, and if they can be exterminated, it will also help improve the status of our Eighth Route Army in the hearts of the people of Yushe. Let the people know that we are an anti-Japanese team that has come to ensure the safety of the party. ’
But can you deal with these bandits, in your thirty or so? You must know that in the early years, the Jin Sui army also wanted to exterminate them, but they never succeeded. Your detachment is newly built, so you can pick this kind of hard bones, are you sure? ’
Facing Qian Weizhong's inquiry, Sun Jie smiled bitterly: "Battalion commander, I really don't know this. If I were to be in charge, I wouldn't be able to do that. But if it is replaced by Team Zhao, then I dare not say it.
Yesterday when they were hunting in the mountains, the prey that the Zhao team hit with one shot accounted for almost half. Most importantly, he fired only five shots, and five wild boars were killed in five shots. The big boar he brought today is his trophy.
According to what the Zhao team said at the meeting last night, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, he will take people to reconnoiter the enemy situation in advance, and then formulate a combat plan after returning. The most important thing is that the little devil weapon he fought on the Yushe Highway before will also be brought back at that time.
In fact, yesterday when we went into the mountains to hunt, he gave each of us five rounds of ammunition for hunting. If he doesn't have any confidence, I'm afraid that it won't be long before our detachment will fall into a situation where there are no bullets available.
But I think he is full of confidence, not as domineering as others said earlier. Now that there is something in the detachment, he will also take the initiative to discuss with our three squad leaders and Liu Pai, who was sent by the third company, and it seems that he is quite easy to talk. ”
Listening to Sun Jie's narration, instructor Zhou Bixue also smiled and said: "Of course, your Zhao team is the main battalion commander during the Red Army's Long March. And the time he spent in the army as a revolutionary officer is older than my qualifications and that of the battalion commander!
The battalion headquarters sent you over, and I also hope that you can learn more from Captain Zhao. Don't feel dissatisfied with the battalion headquarters giving you the establishment of a guerrilla detachment. In fact, your Zhao team will definitely be promoted and reused by your superiors in the future.
As for what you want to do to the bandits in Eagle Rock, as long as you feel sure, the battalion headquarters will not stop you too much. It's just that when you fight, you have to be careful. After all, our power is very limited right now, understand? ”
'Yes, Instructor! ’
As the gift-giving team returned one after another, Zhao Tiehu learned that the battalion headquarters had agreed to his combat proposal. Early the next morning, he took Hu Aniu and five veterans to come out of the Hutou Mountain camp again.
After all the people changed into their uniforms, Zhao Tiehu walked in front by himself, and followed the two people at intervals in the back, which was also done to avoid attracting attention. After all, seven big men are on the road together, which is still somewhat attention-grabbing.
Under the leadership of Hu Aniu, Zhao Tiehu and his entourage walked for more than two hours on the mountain road, and finally arrived at the place where Yingziyan was located. Knowing that Yingziyan was not far ahead, Zhao Tiehu also gave the order to stop advancing at the right time.
Looking at the nearby terrain, Zhao Tiehu also said directly: "Go to the mountain, take a rest on the mountain." Wait a minute, I'll go with Hu Niu to reconnoitre, and you guys are all on standby. ”
'Captain, let's go with you!' ’
Alright, there shouldn't be too many people for this kind of thing. These bandits have all served as soldiers, and they have a certain sense of anti-reconnaissance. If there are too many strangers, I am afraid that it will also arouse their suspicion. Most importantly, the terrain in front is not conducive to concealment.
I have to say that the gang of bandits in Yingziyan are very smart and chose such a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, there are open fields all around here, and if they don't see it right, they can quickly transfer even if they have a war horse.
Therefore, if we want to clean up this group of bandits, we must also think of a way. You all stay in the mountains, don't just walk around. After the reconnaissance is over, we will go to the Yushe Highway and carry the weapons I captured last time back to the mountains. ’
Seeing that Zhao Tiehu disagreed, the soldiers who came with him were not too reluctant. After resting for a while, Zhao Tiehu took Hu Aniu down the mountain from the other side and began to approach Yingziyan for pre-battle reconnaissance.
I saw that one side of Eagle Rock turned out to be a rock wall, and the remaining three sides were surrounded by low bush jungle on two sides, and the remaining side looked very open. When you arrive at the reconnaissance, you can also faintly see the sentry tower built not far away.
In this kind of terrain, if a large army is organized to attack during the day, you will only be afraid of the bandits on the mountain, and you can see the troops coming from a distance from afar. This also means that the bandits in the cottage can also prepare in advance.
After turning around, Zhao Tiehu looked at the side of the rock wall thoughtfully. And Hu Aniu, who was following alongside, looked around with some trepidation. After all, for him, if he wasn't accompanied by Zhao Tiehu, he wouldn't dare to hang around here if he was killed!
