The ransacking of Weishan Town undoubtedly made the second detachment not have to worry about supplies for a long time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn Zhao Tiehu's view, such an action is also to accumulate strength for the future 'cold winter'.
This time, the whole Zaozhuang has been in a big way, and I believe that the little devils will definitely increase the garrison force of Zaozhuang in the future. In the long run, this does not take advantage of the development of the task force in Zaozhuang.
No matter how unconvinced Zhao Tiehu is, he must admit one fact, that is, with the strength of the current task force, compared with the little devils stationed in Shandong, there is no comparison at all, even if it is added to other Eighth Route Army anti-war units.
If you want to accumulate strength, you need time, and if you want to develop the army, you need materials. Taking advantage of the fact that the little devil was tossed enough this time, Zhao Tiehu also planned to accumulate some materials for the future development of the troops.
After coming out of Weishan Town, Zhao Tiehu still didn't care about resting, and took the commando team to Lincheng again. So much so that when the Japanese troops stationed in the river defense brigade learned that Weishan Town had been looted and rushed over, Zhao Tiehu once again jumped out of their encirclement.
Originally, in the opinion of the officers and men of the assault team, after the battle of Weishan Town, they should advance in the direction of Tengxian County and join the first detachment of the detachment. But now Zhao Tiehu is running the opposite way to the boundary of the city, which is really a bit unexpected.
After arriving in a dense forest valley in Lincheng, Zhao Tiehu finally ordered his troops to rest. After three days and two nights of continuous fighting, the officers and men of the unit were in high spirits, but their physical strength was greatly consumed, and they really needed to rest and recuperate.
And Zhao Tiehu also needs to take some time to determine the next combat goal. After letting the commandos camp and rest, Zhao Tiehu also found a rare place to sleep. At this moment, the territory of Weishan has become the focus of a new round of attention of the Japanese army.
First the river defense brigade, and then Weishan Town, the assault team fought for two consecutive nights, so that the Japanese army confirmed that the main force of the Eighth Route Army was in Weishan. Matsuyama Hiroyoshi, who learned the news, soon mobilized an infantry brigade from Teng County to reinforce it.
Adopt the method of dragnet search and arrest, trying to find out the Eighth Route Army hiding in Weishan. On the second day when Zhao Tiehu ordered the troops to rest, two reconnaissance planes of the little devil also appeared in the sky over Zaozhuang.
Seeing the two reconnaissance planes appear in Weishan, Yu Zhenghe quickly realized that something was wrong with the situation. After ordering the guerrillas to finish their daily training and go into hiding, they also issued a notice to the fishing villages along the lake, telling them to be on guard recently.
When the news reached Zhao Tiehu's side, Zhao Tiehu, who learned the news, was also very surprised: "Yes! In order to find us out, the little devil even sent out a plane. I'm really willing to spend the money! ”
'Detachment leader, what should we do next?' ’
Chen Wan, who took the initiative to ask to follow Zhao Tiehu out this time, also truly experienced the cruelty of the front-line battle. Even if every time she fought, Chen Wan stayed in a safe place and waited for news, but after the battle, she would also go to see it.
Looking at those little devils who were killed, Chen Wan would feel very relieved. can see those sacrificed and injured soldiers, Chen Wan will also feel very distressed. It's just that she knows that this is the cruelty of war.
If the biggest gain from coming out this time is undoubtedly to witness Zhao Tiehu's miraculous command and combat ability. took two or three hundred people, but they made a big Zaozhuang chicken fly and dog jump, making the little devil tired.
But what made Chen Wan most helpless was that when Zhao Tiehu treated her, she was really a revolutionary comrade-in-arms, and she didn't seem to treat her as a woman. You must know that when she was in college, she was also a flower of the school, and she had many suitors.
Even without the disaster back then, she is also the daughter of everyone's beautiful young daughter. Even if she felt that Zhao Tiehu was a little puzzled, Chen Wan could also feel that Zhao Tiehu still attached great importance to her safety.
Facing Chen Wan's inquiry, Zhao Tiehu thought for a while and said: "There are still three detachments in the detachment to generate electricity, and air defense posts have been added to the base in the past few days, and the training of recruits has been appropriately reduced." As soon as the little devil's reconnaissance plane is spotted, it immediately hides it.
The playgrounds carved out in the mountains are all camouflaged, so as not to let the little devil's plane see any flaws. The guerrillas everywhere should not be lightly moved in the near future. If there is an operation, it will be changed to a night operation. ”
'Yes, Captain! It's just that in this way, I'm afraid that the battle below us will become more and more difficult, right? ’
This is the inevitable result! There is a huge disparity between the enemy and our forces, and with our current strength, we can't meet the little devils at all. All we can do is try to deal with the little devils, and they will give up automatically.
Although we have the upper hand in the current situation, it is also because we have done a lot of preparation work in the early stage. Next, the little devils will gather in all parts of Zaozhuang, and it is estimated that sooner or later they will follow us.
It's just that there will definitely be no good results in a tough confrontation with the little devils. Therefore, the next step for our commando team to do is to divert the attention of the little devils from Zaozhuang and create an illusion for them to evacuate Zaozhuang. ’
Zhao Tiehu, who quickly came up with a strategy to break the game, asked Chen Wan to issue his combat instructions, and then took out the map captured from the little devil's hand, and began to analyze where the next step should be, and where the little devil should be led.
After some thought, Zhao Tiehu quickly thought of a way to divert the little devil's attention. After calling Li Chengwu and several platoon commanders for discussion, the reconnaissance detachment once again left the team to conduct reconnaissance for the main force in advance.
After resting for the night in the dense forest in the mountains near Lincheng, Zhao Tiehu ordered the troops to set up camp and began to prepare for the road. As for going there, Zhao Tiehu still didn't say anything, and the officers and soldiers of the commando team also didn't ask much.
With the experience of the previous times, many fighters know that as long as they follow the large army, it is enough. As for where to hit next, you will naturally know when you get to the place. And what they have to do is to be ready for battle at all times.
When Zhao Tiehu ordered the troops to stop advancing, and looked at the brightly lit place in the distance, a soldier immediately said: "This seems to be Lincheng!" Are we going to attack the city tonight? ”
While many fighters were talking, several platoon commanders of the assault team walked into the ranks one after another and left with the troops under their respective commands. Some went to the main traffic routes outside the city to prepare for ambushes, while others began to set up mortars outside the city.
Compared with the artillery detachment of the third detachment the night before, which only carried two mortars, it frightened the defenders of the city. In the end, it was found that this was simply the attack tactics of the Eighth Route Army. As a result, it was a toss-up, but it was Weishan Town that was finally lost.
For this reason, the Lincheng garrison officer was also reprimanded by the Zaozhuang garrison officer. In the words of Matsumoto Hiroyoshi, 'The garrison officer of the city is too sloppy, and he is a bit of a soldier. did not find any signs of the eight-way attack, so he asked Zaozhuang for help, which was greatly humiliated. ’
At this moment, there are as many as eight mortars set up outside Lincheng, which means that after the shelling begins, it is estimated that the defenders of Lincheng will be startled again. As for whether to attack the city next, Zhao Tiehu also has his own plans.
In front of the artillery detachment, the machine gunners of the assault detachment were all concentrated. Along the vicinity of the city gates, a tight machine-gun blockade was formed. What Zhao Tiehu has to do tonight is to beat the little devils guarding the city.
At present, the little devils are gathering heavy troops in Weishan, but Zhao Tiehu has come around to Lincheng again. It is estimated that after learning the news, the little devils who entered the territory of Weishan would vomit blood angrily. After all, it's really tiring to toss back and forth like this!
But these are exactly what Zhao Tiehu wants, and the so-called morning glory tactics are also played by Zhao Tiehu. As for whether to fight Lincheng next, it depends on whether the little devil will be successful. If he doesn't hit the plan, Zhao Tiehu won't feel anything to lose.
When everything was ready, the artillery detachments were divided into two artillery positions, and four mortars opened fire first. According to what Zhao Tiehu learned, the little devil who had rested in Lincheng for a day earlier had just left for Weishan during the day today.
Although the garrison stationed in the city has strengthened its vigilance. But in the face of the Eighth Route Army's attack and harassment troops that were shelled outside the city, they also seemed a little powerless. After all, their cordon could not have been deployed outside the city.
The Japanese puppet army who was on duty at the head of the city, looking at the firelight and whistling sound coming from the darkness of the city gate, immediately someone shouted: "Shelling! Whistle, there is an enemy shelling outside the city! ”
With the piercing whistle, the defenders in the city, who were worried about whether the Eighth Route Army would come again when the large army left, quickly ran out of the barracks as a reflex, and began to enter their respective defensive positions in an orderly manner, staring at the place of shelling outside the city.
The first reaction of the garrison officer in Lincheng, who also heard the sound of shelling, was that the Eighth Route Army was coming to attack again. But is this time an attack or a real attack? Why did the Eighth Route Army launch an artillery bombardment of Lincheng as soon as the large army left?
The garrison of the city, who was full of puzzlement, did not dare to send a telegram for help, but ordered the troops to strictly guard the city wall and not go out. After five rounds of firing from four mortars, the shelling finally stopped.
The Japanese puppet army guarding the city wall also began to turn their heads and whispered: "Why is it that the light is firing again, and I don't see anyone attacking?" ”
Just when these Japanese puppet troops were puzzled, another artillery detachment also opened fire. This time, the target of their shelling was a relatively low section of the city wall. What frightened the defenders even more was that they saw people running outside the city.
'Not good! If you want to break through from here, immediately inform Your Excellency the garrison officer and let him quickly send reinforcements! ’
When the Lincheng garrison learned that the enemy situation came from the west gate of Lincheng, he could only send additional troops there. But when the reinforcements arrived, the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army, which had been hanging outside the city before, seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
Hearing this news, the Lincheng garrison officer was also very angry and said, "Baga! What the hell are you trying to do? ”
In the eyes of the Lincheng garrison, these Eighth Route Army obviously regarded the Lincheng garrison as a soft persimmon. When there was a large army, the Eighth Route Army did not dare to show up at all, and as soon as the large army left, the Eighth Route Army came, and it shelled at every turn.
It's just that not long after, after the eight mortars also launched shelling, the garrison officer of the city also looked very entangled. In his opinion, in this case, should the situation be reported?
