Chapter 156: Order a Retreat!
Last night, after a sneak attack on the rear base camp of the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain, Zhao Tiehu decided to leave the Yunling Mountain Range and return to Jiugou Mountain in Qi County. www.biquge.info In his opinion, the lesson given to the Japanese army in Taigu this time is believed to be profound enough.
Although it is not clear how much damage was caused to the Japanese army by last night's attack. But Zhao Tiehu also understands that with these troops he brought, he really wants to die in the mountains with the little devils, and he is afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses.
Choosing the battle plan that is most beneficial to him is also the operational principle that Zhao Tiehu has always followed. Now that the plan to rob the military train has been completed, it also inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army in Taigu, and also urged the destruction of many sections of railways in Taigu.
This series of sabotage also made the situation of the Japanese army around Taigu more and more complicated and difficult. If he continued to stay here, Zhao Tiehu was also worried that the little devil would send heavy troops and do something desperate at that time.
After burying all the materials that were inconvenient to carry, Zhao Tiehu led the combat detachment into the vast mountains. When the troops marched for two hours, Zhao Tiehu heard a roar in the air.
Thinking about what kind of voice this was, Zhao Tiehu immediately said: "Stop advancing, hide on the spot, hide and don't walk around!" ”
After giving this order, Zhao Tiehu quickly found a big tree and climbed up, stood on the treetop and took out a telescope hanging on his chest, and soon saw that the Japanese fighter plane that appeared in the sky in the distance was flying towards the mountain range.
'NN's, the little devil is really ruthless enough, and he even sent out fighters to carry out bombing. Fortunately, the withdrawal was fast, otherwise they would have been blocked in the mountains, and it is estimated that they would have to shed their skin if they didn't die! ’
When Zhao Tiehu realized that the fighter plane came to cooperate with the Soshan troops to encircle and suppress him, he was also glad that he did not continue to stay in the mountains and entangle with the little devils. If you really want to fight with the little devils like yesterday, there will inevitably be heavy casualties in the troops.
Even though the vegetation in the mountains is lush, it still can't withstand the bombardment that falls from the sky. Compared to ordinary artillery shells, aerial bombs are naturally more powerful. After a single shot, it is estimated that the soldiers near the explosion should not want to live well.
After coming down from the tree, Liu Cheng also said with a solemn expression: "Captain, is it the little devil's plane?" ”
'Hmmm! There are still a lot of them, but fortunately, we have been walking for more than two hours, and I believe that it is not so easy for the little devils to catch up. From now on, we will try to choose a path that is covered by trees.
As soon as the little devil appears above us, immediately stop moving forward and hide in the spot. As long as they are not discovered by the little devils in the air, even if they want to throw bombs, they probably don't know where to throw them. After all, this mountain is huge! ’
Yes, I'll pass on the order! ’
In order to ensure that he did not get lost in the mountains, Zhao Tiehu once again served as the leader and led the combat detachment to advance along the deep mountains and dense forests. Once he heard that the little devil's plane was close, Zhao Tiehu would make a gesture to order the troops to hide on the spot.
Fortunately, the deeper you go into the mountains, the more lush the vegetation becomes. It is naturally impossible to find people hidden in the woods in the air. Most importantly, the Japanese flew fighter jets and reconnaissance planes, not helicopters that could hover.
When these two types of aircraft are reconnoitring, no matter how slow they fly, they often sweep away the targets they observe below. If it's a target in motion, it may be possible to find it. If it's a stationary target, it's hard to spot!
When Zhao Tiehu led the combat detachment and began to advance into the mountains, Miyata Konan also ordered the troops to advance into the mountains. What they had to do was very simple, find out the hidden position of the Eighth Route Army and give air fighters ground bombing guidance.
It's just that after a few Japanese puppet troops entered the mountain, they found that the silence of the mountains and forests frightened them. Compared with the cold gunfire that came from time to time yesterday, it has never been encountered today, which makes many Japanese soldiers wonder if the Eighth Route Army has escaped.
They could march to the area they had not searched yesterday, and the thunder that the mountain search troops feared the most sounded again. Listening to the sound of explosions coming from the mountains and forests ahead, many of the little devil officers who led the team seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
In their opinion, since there is a trick mine, it means that the Eighth Route Army should still be there, but the hiding place of the Eighth Route Army may be deeper than yesterday. But as long as the Eighth Route Army is in the mountains, they can always be found.
If they do, it will be difficult to find them!
As the Soshan troops began to fall into the threat of treacherous mines, but still did not see the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army, many Japanese commanders became a little weak-hearted. Many officers began to worry about whether the Eighth Route Army had already run away.
Miyata Konan, who also went into the mountains to stay in the rear, also looked a little panicked when he learned that the search force had not found the location of the Eighth Route Army. Once the Eighth Route Army really slips away, then he will be really in trouble.
In order to eliminate this Eighth Route Army that had escaped into the mountains, Mei Mijiro sent all the fighters. But they didn't realize that the Eighth Route Army that had entered the mountain had already left. This kind of dereliction of duty will also make it difficult for Miyata Yunan to be held accountable.
'Shao Zuo, what should I do?' Do you want to keep searching? ’
'Sou, I don't believe it, these Eighth Route Army really escaped. ’
Unwilling to believe the fact that the Eighth Route Army had left, Miyata Yukinan still had a trace of luck. However, this kind of search that has never been fruitless cannot go on forever, even if the search and arrest force does not matter, but the planes in the air cannot afford to consume it.
Seeing that the plane hovering in the air was ready to leave, Miyata Konan finally gritted his teeth and said, "Guide the plane and bomb those two mountains." I don't believe that these dirt roads have really escaped. ”
Pointing to the two mountains in front of him with dense vegetation and relatively dangerous terrain, Miyata Yukinan finally did not dare to let the plane return without dropping bombs. In his opinion, only by letting the plane drop the bomb can he find a way to deal with the aftermath.
If you really let the commander above know that with the cooperation of the aircraft, they can't even find the place where the Eighth Route Army is hiding in the mountains, it is incompetent. For incompetent officers, it is impossible to mix in the Japanese army.
As several Japanese soldiers advanced to the vicinity of the two mountains designated by Miyata Konan and launched the signal flares that guided the planes into the sky, the bombers that had been hovering in the air began to slowly fly over the two mountains.
As the bomb compartment opened, a string of aerial bombs landed rapidly from the sky. When the bomb fell on the jungle floor, a series of violent explosions and firelight rose into the air, which made the Japanese puppet army searching the nearby mountains also look sideways.
Even Zhao Tiehu and his party, who had already marched far away from the location of the explosion, couldn't help but stop and look at the place where the explosion and the fire came from. Many of the fighters felt that they were fortunate to have retreated in time.
If they hadn't retreated early, it is estimated that they would have stayed in the mountains, and under such a fierce bombardment, it is estimated that they would have to shed their skin if they did not die. But now, no matter how much the little devils bomb, it won't help, they have already left.
After looking at it a few times, Zhao Tiehu finally shook his head and said, "Okay, don't look at it, continue on the road!" I hope that this bombing will not cause any fire to spread. Otherwise, the jungle around Yunling Mountain will inevitably be destroyed a lot! ”
The power of aerial bombs is self-evident, and they can be dropped in the jungle and can also ignite fires. Fortunately, there are many water ditches in the Yunling Mountain Range, and I hope that under the obstruction of these water ditches, the heat will not spread to the entire Yunling Mountain Range.
Just as Zhao Tiehu and the others were back on the road, the Japanese puppet army searching the mountains also quietly stared at the two mountains that were on fire, hoping to see the scene of the Eighth Route Army escaping from the mountains. As a result, after waiting for a long time, I still didn't see a single figure of the Eighth Route Army.
In the face of the continuous spreading fire, a little devil officer could only sigh and say: "Shaozuo, if you want to come to Tubalu, you should flee while we are unprepared." If there were really eight roads in this vicinity, I am afraid that they would not be able to hide for a long time.
Now that the fire has spread, let's leave quickly to ensure the safety of the troops! Look at the direction of the wind, I'm afraid that the fire will burn to our side, so let's retreat quickly and find another way! ”
'Yaga! Well, give the order to retreat! ’
Even if he was unwilling, Miyata Konan could only order all the Soyama troops to withdraw from the mountain. Just when everyone was worried that this fire would continue to burn, and I didn't know how many mountains and forests would be burned, God seemed to be a little overwhelmed.
After a burst of thunder and lightning, the downpour poured down, drenching Zhao Tiehu and the others who were marching in the mountains, not to mention the soup chickens, and also extinguishing the fire that was spreading continuously, making the nearby people and mountain people seem to breathe a sigh of relief.
Considering the impact of the heavy rain, Zhao Tiehu did not order the troops to continue marching, and found a relatively safe place, so he ordered the troops to camp and rest. While setting up tents to hide from the rain, the troops also began to bury pots for cooking.
Looking at the soldiers who were still in a good mood in the heavy rain, Zhao Tiehu also felt very happy. Even if the rain prevented them from moving forward, Zhao Tiehu felt that the rain did come in time, which made him feel a little less guilty.
If the fire is allowed to continue, it is believed that it will have a bad impact on the vegetation and environment of the Yunling Mountains. Now the heavy rain is very timely, which will undoubtedly allow this bad situation to be controlled in a timely and effective manner.
As for blocking the way of their march, in Zhao Tiehu's opinion, a day and a half a day late, in fact, it doesn't matter. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity to relax, it is also a very good opportunity for the troops to relax.
Some puppet soldiers who had just joined the combat detachment also felt a little moved and surprised when they saw that these Eighth Route Army treated them equally, and what the Eighth Route Army ate, they also ate.
It's just that I thought of what Zhao Tiehu said before, it will take a while to test them, and many puppet soldiers feel that they must perform well next. If they can join this team, maybe they will be able to make it out one day.
The longer I have been in contact with Zhao Tiehu and others, the more the newly joined puppet army can appreciate the strength of this force. Carrying so many supplies through the mountains and mountains, the sound on the road is very small, and often a gesture can order the prohibition of the line.
Isn't it the luck of a soldier to be able to join such an elite army? In these war-torn years, if you can stay with a group of elite soldiers, you will have the hope of surviving!
