Chapter 13 Take the county seat lightly

The county seat of Yuxian is not big!

The inner city was built in the Sui Dynasty, and the outer city was built in the 11th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty. By the thirty-fourth year of the Wanli Chinese New Year's Eve of the Ming Dynasty, the inner city and the outer city were overhauled at the same time, and the pattern of the county seat of Yuxian County was fixed, and it has not changed so far!

From the east gate of the outer city to the east gate of the inner city, go straight along Dongguan Street.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, Yuxian County had good economic development because of coal mining and convenient transportation by Zhengtai Railway. Before the Japanese army captured the county seat of Yuxian County, the two lines of East Avenue were all business shops, and there were hundreds of shops with trade names. It's a pity that the devil came, and everyone who could run in the county ran away, and most of the shops on both sides of East Street were closed. Some of those who didn't run, or who returned to take care of their business without worry, also closed early at this time, and the streets were empty.

It was so fast that after a while, the twilight had turned into night, and the crescent moon had risen into the sky, and the sky was full of stars.

Because it is convenient for the devil patrol to patrol the outer city at night, the east gate of the inner city is not closed at night, and there are two large torches at the city gate, and a devil sentry stands under each of the torches.

Knowing the Japanese army's password, when Xiao Siming led the team to the east gate of the inner city, there was no trouble at all, and the two devil sentries were twisted and broke their necks in a daze, and they didn't even know how they died!

As soon as I entered the east gate, I met a team of devils who went to patrol the outer city, no more, no less, just five.

Xiao Siming was the first to drink in Japanese and asked: "Password!" ”

The devil Cao Chang, who led the team, replied reflexively: "Kaga! Rebate! ”

Xiao Siming said in Japanese, "Noto!" ”。

When the devil Cao Chang saw that there was a stretcher for the wounded behind him and a donkey cart for pulling the wounded, he was surprised and wanted to ask what was going on, but he didn't expect that His Excellency the second lieutenant who led the team ignored him and passed by him.

The devil Cao Chang consciously turned sideways to avoid it, and stood on the side of the road with the patrol team to make way for the imperial warriors who returned in a hurry.

To the surprise of the devil Cao Chang, His Excellency the Second Lieutenant, who had just walked past the patrol soldiers, suddenly turned his face, twisted around, pulled out his combat knife, raised it and swung it flatly, and the blade swept towards the neck of the last patrolman.

In an instant, a human head rolled to the ground, and the headless corpse fell with a bang, blood spraying all over the ground.

Suddenly there was a sudden change, the devil Cao Chang was stunned and didn't react, the imperial soldiers who were walking suddenly turned around, and the bayonet in his hand stabbed the remaining four people of the devil patrol who were standing on the side of the road to give way, and the sound of "poof, poof" sounded, and the four devils were bleeding from their mouths, and at least two bayonets were stabbed into their abdomen at the same time, and they fell to the ground with puzzled faces.

A few ordinary people who were driving donkeys ran over, dragged the devil's body to the side of the road, picked up the devil's gun, untied the belt with the bullet box hanging from the devil's waist, and took it back to the donkey cart.

After entering the inner city, the fellow who led Chen Desheng into the city to reconnoiter in the morning walked to the front, and led the team straight to the county government where the Japanese army headquarters was located and the first high school where the devil transport squadron was stationed.

The organs and units in the inner city have long been withdrawn, and the devils have not been able to establish a maintenance association after entering the city, and there is no Japanese puppet organ, and the inner city of Yuxian City is as quiet as a dead city.

Japanese leather boots clattered on the streets of the county, and the sound was heard far away in the silent night.

When I went to the county government where the Japanese army headquarters was stationed, I saw that the two devil sentries were standing straight at the gate, and through the courtyard wall, I heard the howls of devils, the sound of leather whips on people, and the screams of people being beaten.

Seeing Xiao Siming and them coming, the two sentries cheered up and shouted for the password.

After Xiao Siming answered the password, when he walked to the sentries, by the moonlight, he looked at it, and saw that the sentry's epaulettes were the red epaulettes of the infantry, which were different from the dark blue epaulettes of the baggage soldiers he met all the way just now, and he sighed in his heart, is it really like Wang Lushui said, in addition to the Japanese army's transport team, there are infantry combat squadrons or squads in this Yuxian City?

I was in my heart, it was time for me to send the arrow on the string, where would Xiao Siming hesitate, smiling, and said to the two Japanese sentries that his team had a bad battle today and suffered a lot of losses, and asked where the military doctor was.

In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army had permanent divisions and special divisions, each of which had four field hospitals. However, the field hospitals all operated with divisions and brigades, and the infantry brigade had only three doctors and four sanitary soldiers, and the squadron had only four sanitary soldiers. A squad that acts alone can be assigned a health guard from the squadron.

As soon as Xiao Siming said this, the Japanese sentry who had already relaxed his vigilance also became enthusiastic, put away his gun, saluted His Excellency the Second Lieutenant, and reported that the military doctor of the brigade had been drawn with His Excellency the Captain, and there was no military doctor here.

After speaking, the two Japanese sentries lowered their heads and said respectfully according to Japanese etiquette, "I'm sorry for the trouble!" ”

With this bow, the two sentries at the entrance of the Japanese brigade failed to raise their heads again. Several bright bayonets pierced their abdomen, the tips peeking out from their backs.

Solved the sentry, leaving two soldiers to stand guard in disguise as Japanese soldiers, leaving the pack horses, donkey carts and stretchers behind all outside the door, Xiao Siming took the other soldiers, holding guns, and tiptoed into the courtyard.

The sound is coming from the backyard!

Entering the backyard door, Xiao Siming took a look inside and understood what was going on!

The backyard of the county government is actually the backyard of the county government in the past, which belongs to the living area of the families of county officials.

Under a row of bright torches, a devil warrant officer sits on a wooden chair with a combat knife on his post, on the left side stands a row of six devil soldiers with rifles with bayonets, and on the right is a machine gun bunker made of sandbags, and four devils crawl in the bunker, holding a Type 96 light machine gun.

Behind the Devil warrant officer, there was a translator standing, who was bending down and whispering something in the devil's ear.

Next to the devil soldiers, there were more than a dozen people who also wore devil cotton military uniforms, but they were all carrying German 20-round shell guns, and one of the guys led by them was actually draped left and right, carrying two German-made shell guns, and there was a Japanese king's eight box holster hanging on the belt around the waist of the military coat.

There are people tied to the pillars of the houses around the backyard and the trees in the yard, some wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army, some wearing the uniforms of the National Army, and some wearing the clothes of the common people. Without exception, these people were covered in blood on their clothes.

Looking inside, under the moonlight, the house is full of people!

Needless to say, this is a captive captured by the little devils!

There were a dozen corpses lying in the courtyard!

Five guys with shell guns on their backs and black cotton clothes and pants were whipping several people who had fallen to the ground, scolding and scolding them, and asking where the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, which ambushed the Imperial Japanese Army at Pingxingguan, had withdrawn!

It seems that after the Japanese brigade marched to the Tibetan Mountains, it left behind a squad of Japanese troops to interrogate the captured Eighth Route Army, the Kuomintang Army, local cadres and the masses in a vain attempt to find out the whereabouts of the main force of our army.

The Japanese army that captured Yuxian this time was from Xiyang all the way to capture Shouyang, and went north to capture Yuxian, raided and outflanked in the area of the three counties, and the wounded of the Eighth Route Army, local cadres and the stragglers who were separated from the large army after retreating from the front line of Niangzi Pass were definitely many of them were trapped in the net by the Japanese army. This Japanese army was also a field force, and it was impossible to march with prisoners all the time, and without the cooperation of the military police and the puppet regime, it was left in Yuxian County and handed over to the special forces operating with the army.

If Xiao Siming hadn't led his team to attack and occupy the county seat of Yuxian County, this part of the captured people would have been killed by the Japanese army.

Xiao Siming originally wanted to use a bayonet to solve the battle, but as soon as he saw this posture, he knew that he had to use machine gun bullets to speak. Because there is not only a detachment of devil infantry in this courtyard, but also those fake devils with shell guns and military uniforms! Those guys must be spies from the Northeast or North Korean spies, and the shell guns on their backs are melee weapons and fierce firepower. Once they are asked to pull out their guns, with Xiao Siming's current strength, it is difficult to say who will kill the deer!

As for the guys who are beating people with leather whips, they are all traitors from Pingjin to Shanxi, and they are also very murderous!

Xiao Siming took out the Wang Ba box, stuffed the command knife into the scabbard, turned his head and whispered to Qiu Wei and the others who were following him: "Machine gun preparation!" Assault with me! ”

After saying a word, Xiao Siming stepped into the small courtyard with an arrow, and the Wang Ba box in his hand opened fire with a "bang", and the bullet went straight to the back of the devil's machine gunner's head.

As long as it is within the firing range, the pistol is much more convenient to use than the 38 big cover, and it can be fired continuously!

Xiao Siming fired one shot, and the second shot hit the devil's machine gun deputy shooter!

The machine gun squad leader Yuan Gang, the grenadier squad leader Zhang Huaide, the first squad leader Qiu Wei, and the second squad leader Zhang Pengfei, who rushed into the courtyard immediately behind Xiao Siming, rushed in, and the Type 96 light machine gun in their hands "gurgle" and screamed, and the bullets shot into the back of the little devils and spies, and they fell into a piece of uproar.

The latest to die were the five traitors who beat people with leather whips, for fear of accidentally injuring the captured people who fell to the ground and the people tied to the pillars, these five guys were dealt with with the king's box and bayonets by the soldiers who rushed in!

The hospital is full of blood!

As soon as the gunshots rang out, the intent of the sneak attack was revealed!

Xiao Siming didn't care about rescuing those captured personnel, so he commanded the soldiers to hurriedly search the courtyard of the county government, leaving three soldiers to organize the wounded of the captured Eighth Route Army and local cadres, and put them on guard, so he led the team out of the courtyard of the county government and went straight to the No. 1 elementary school where the Japanese transport squadron was stationed.

What Xiao Siming didn't expect was that the gunshots in the courtyard of the county government did not wake up the other Japanese soldiers, and the streets were still empty and empty!

It seems that the devils and traitors who interrogate the captured people in the courtyard of the county government often shoot and kill the prisoners, and the little devils are used to the guns fired there!

When I arrived at the entrance of the first high school, a stench came to my nose.

Xiao Siming flashed to the side, and when he took a look, there was a row of rubber-tyred carts parked in the yard, tethered to almost 100 pack horses, and the devil soldiers were having dinner, and there was not even a sentry at the door.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Siming made a gesture, issued an order to prepare for battle, picked up the whistle taken from the devil patrol Cao Chang, led the team into the courtyard, and blew the whistle.

The shrill whistle broke the silence in the courtyard, and the devil soldiers who were eating saw a second lieutenant with a team suddenly appear in the courtyard and blew the whistle, thinking that there was an emergency, and began to assemble in the middle of the courtyard!

Xiao Siming blew a few times and began to shout in Japanese: "Assemble!" Gather! All transport squadrons assembled! ”

Now it's okay, those little devils are moving fast, and it won't take long for them to line up in detachments and squads!

The Devil Squadron Leader and the Executive Officer were also eating, and when they heard the whistle, they ran out of the house, shouting loudly as they ran, asking what was going on and why they gathered?

Xiao Siming ignored the devil squadron leader and the executive officer, took out the Wang Ba box on his waist, and hit the devil squadron leader and executive officer on the head with his backhand!

The sound of gunfire made the little devils who were gathering suddenly wake up, as if they had just found out, looking at the muzzle of the black hole in front of them.

The machine gun squad leader Yuan Gang, the first squad leader Qiu Wei, the second squad leader Zhang Pengfei, the grenadier squad leader Zhang Huaide and others who were standing beside Xiao Siming clucked the Type 96 light machine gun in their hands and screamed happily, and the bullets were sprinkled on the devils who were gathering.

Since the total annihilation of a devil squad on the threshing floor, this team of wounded people already has six Type 96 light machine guns, plus the one captured at the Dadongmen and the one captured at the county government compound, there are already eight light machine guns, and the firepower is quite fierce. With this firing, the eight Eighth Route Army, who were born in the old Red Army, held eight machine guns and spat eight tongues of fire, how could the forty or fifty devil transporters gathered in the courtyard withstand it!

The battle ended quickly and without any suspense!
