Chapter 3 Penetrating Behind Enemy Lines
Cheng Sankui's company was originally a fully equipped 150-person integrated company, but when it was interspersed behind enemy lines, it had already lost more than 20 soldiers, and just now it fought a vicious battle with the devils, and more than 30 people were sacrificed, and the second platoon commander was unfortunately killed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info is now full of more than 80 people who can pick up guns to fight.
"Company Commander Cheng, what are we going to do next?" Seeing that the team was still heading all the way north, there was no intention of hiding or breaking away from the enemy-occupied area. Jiang Shan couldn't help but wonder in his heart, and while he was resting, he couldn't help but ask.
Cheng Sankui glanced at him, sighed, and said, "Wherever you go, it's counted." We were given the task of attracting the attention of the enemy and buying time and space for the safe transfer of organs and chiefs. As for where or how far it can be hit in the end, it's up to fate. ”
When Jiang Shan heard this, he was completely dumbfounded. What is this? A company, just give up? This is not the style of the Eighth Route Army.
"Company Commander Cheng, say something you shouldn't say. Your company is an outcast! Jiang Shan was stunned for a while before he whispered.
A trace of amazement flashed on Cheng Sankui's face, but it quickly disappeared again. He smiled helplessly and said calmly: "My old Cheng is a rough man, but not a fool. My company was pulled behind the enemy to attract firepower. I've seen that. But there is no way, our Eighth Route Army is not comparable to your regular army, the equipment is backward, and the quality of personnel is poor. Chairman Chiang and the Ministry of National Defense did not want to see us. Our Eighth Route Army was raised by our stepmother, and my grandmother didn't love my uncle. What do you fight with the devil? I can only fill it in with my life. ”
Cheng Sankui took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, groping all over his body, but did not find a match. Jiang Shan took out the Wehrmacht military lighter from his pocket, lit it with a "ding" sound, and lit a cigarette for him. Seeing Cheng Sankui staring at his lighter, Jiang Shan smiled and threw the lighter to him.
Cheng Sankui stretched out his hand to catch the lighter, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "It's really a good thing." In the Eighth Route Army, I'm afraid even the commander-in-chief doesn't have this thing. After speaking, he casually threw the lighter to Jiang Shan, looking at Jiang Shan's puzzled eyes, he explained: "To say something unlucky, these brothers of mine and I are all people who have no tomorrow today, and we may not sacrifice our lives for the country when a bullet flies over." It's a pity that such a good thing will be buried in the soil with me when the time comes. You'd better keep it. ”
Jiang Shan was speechless when he heard it, but Cheng Sankui chattered as if he hadn't spoken for a long time. "I know that Brother Jiang must feel that it seems very unfair to us to exchange the lives of those leaders for the lives of those leaders. But if not, what can be done? Now North China is full of devils, and the national army has long since run all the way to the south. Those who insist on fighting devils here are left with the Eighth Route Army and some unsuccessful local armies. In this war, there has to be someone who picks the lead and takes the initiative, right? Those of us who are ordinary soldiers, after the loss, it is relatively easy to replenish, but if the leaders have any accident, they will have to delay the big thing at that time. Therefore, before we set out, I told the brothers that even if there was no one left in a row, we had to ensure the safety of the leaders. ”
Jiang Shan looked around, and the soldiers of a company were sitting or lying on the side of the road resting. Although after a long journey and a series of fierce battles, everyone had a tired look on their faces, and many people had wounds on their bodies. But no one looked sad.
Cheng Sankui wiped his face and said with a smile: "Hey, look at my mouth, what are you doing with these useful and useless things." Brother Jiang, listen to what Brother Jiang said, if you really look at the situation wrong, you will find a way to get out by yourself. You're different from us, so there's no need to be here. With your ability, getting out safely will definitely not be a problem. ”
Jiang Shan didn't answer his words, sat on the ground, quietly thinking about his thoughts. Cheng Sankui saw that the soldiers were almost rested, spit out the cigarette butt in his mouth, and shouted loudly: "A platoon leader, assemble the team!" Keep moving! Liang Jianbin gathered the team, ran to Cheng Sankui's side, and asked hesitantly: "Company commander, where are we going?" ”
"Where are we going?" Cheng Sankui looked up at the sky, looked around again, then took out the map from the document bag, and after a brief look, said: "Continue to the north and lead the devil to drill the ravine!" Anyway, the farther away from the chief and the agency, the better! ”
The leader of the platoon got the order, and when he was about to turn around and execute it, Jiang Shan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke: "Company Commander Cheng, can you let me look at the map?" ”
Generally speaking, maps, as military materials, are classified documents. Jiang Shan rashly said this request, but it seemed abrupt. However, now he had a vague thought in his heart, and he was in a hurry to make sure, so he had to open his mouth.
Cheng Sankui looked at him and didn't say anything, just silently took out the map and handed it to him. Liang Jianbin opened his mouth, wanting to stop the company commander's move, but when he saw Jiang Shan's shining eyes, he still didn't say anything. He is also a veteran oilman, and he can keenly feel the courage and murderous aura on Jiang Shan's body. He vaguely felt that the fate of himself and his brothers might change because of this country.
Jiang Shan, who got the map, stopped talking nonsense, squatted aside and studied it. After a bag of cigarettes, Jiang Shan raised his head, looked at Cheng Sankui, and said word by word: "Company Commander Cheng, I suggest not to go north!" Veer! Go East! ”
"Eastward?" Cheng Sankui glanced at Jiangshan suspiciously, looked down at the map again, and said: "Our task is to attract the attention of the enemy. Our whole action is meaningless. ”
"Company Commander Cheng, look here." Jiang Shan pointed to a point on the map with his finger and patiently explained: "If we continue to go north, we will be tantamount to burrowing into the nest of the Japanese army in North China." With just a few of us, it is impossible to make any waves in the devil's nest. As long as the Japanese army blocks our retreat with one squadron, and then uses the superior strength of one brigade in front to intercept us, then with our strength and backward equipment, it can only be a dead end. ”
"What's the use of going east? The devil's troops are concentrated in the north, and if we go east, we are safe, but it is equivalent to exposing the back of the organ and the chief to the devil, what is the difference between this and being a deserter? Cheng Sankui frowned and said what he thought.
"Company Commander Cheng, what was the task you accepted at the beginning?" Jiang Shan did not answer him directly, but asked an irrelevant question.
"At all costs, attract the attention of the Japanese army, stick to the main force of the Japanese army, and cover the chief and the organs to cross the canal." Although Cheng Sankui wondered why Jiang Shan was asking this at this time, he still answered him seriously.
Jiang Shan smiled slightly and said: "That's right, the requirement of the mission is to attract the Japanese army, not to send you to death." Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to lure the Japanese army over while preserving yourself? ”
"You mean?" Cheng Sankui's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked. Jiang Shan's voice was a little loud, and the surrounding warriors also listened to it. Originally, everyone was determined to die, but suddenly they heard that there was a different result, and many people became short of breath. After all, no one wants to die in vain, and it is better to have a glimmer of life than to fall into despair.
"If you go further north, North China is a vast plain area, and even if there are small hills, most of them are below 100 meters, and the terrain is gentle, so there is no danger to defend at all. The Japanese army is extremely excited, relying on the soles of our feet to race against the wheels of the devil's cars, we don't even have a chance of winning! When the time comes, we will be rabbits in the field, and we can only be slaughtered by devils. Jiang Shan continued to explain patiently, "If you go east, close to the water network of the canal, the roads are muddy and rugged, and it is difficult for the devil's cars and heavy weapons to pass. And that side belongs to the hilly area, when the time comes, we will take the devil in circles between the mountains and mountains, and if we can't defeat him, we will exhaust them! When the devil is exhausted, let's kill the horse pistol again, who do you say will be stained? ”
Cheng Sankui pondered and didn't speak, obviously, Jiang Shan's words made him very moved. Liang Jianbin next to him listened to it for a long time, and finally had the opportunity to interject: "Company Commander Jiang, this plan looks very tempting. But there is one problem that remains unsolved. As soon as we leave, what will happen to the rear of the chief and the agency? Do you want to let the devil chase after the chief's ass? If there is any mistake, then our company will be the sinners of the Eighth Route Army! ”
Jiang Shan drew a line on the map with his hand and said confidently: "Don't worry, as long as we advance eastward, the Japanese army will definitely wave its troops and chase after us." When the time comes, it will simply not be possible for them to have the energy to chase the chief. ”
"Why?" Cheng Sankui and Liang Jianbin looked at Jiangshan together, not understanding where he got his confidence.
"Company Commander Cheng, Platoon Commander Liang, look here. On our way east, we had to pass two medium-sized supply depots for the Japanese army. The Japanese army is now preparing for the Battle of Xuzhou, and its forces are stretched. The supply depot was behind them again, and with the arrogance of the Japanese army, they would definitely not believe that there would be an attack by the Chinese army. The defensive forces are bound to be empty. At that time, we will take advantage of the characteristics of the Eighth Route Army, which is good at night warfare and guerrilla warfare, and vigorously engage in these two supply stations. On the one hand, you can hurt the Japanese army, and on the other hand, you can replenish yourself. Do you think the Japanese army will notice us? ”
"At that time, we will definitely be a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the Japanese army, and they will definitely not let the main force of the Eighth Route Army operate in their rear. It's definitely coming to encircle us. Liang Jianbin answered first, he vaguely had some eyebrows in his heart, and roughly guessed Jiangshan's plan, but there were some things that he hadn't thought about clearly.
"You see, we are attacking all the way forward, giving the Japanese army the illusion that we are going to attack all the way east. If the Japanese army doesn't care about us, then we will fake it and give him a few hard blows; If he comes to encircle and suppress us, now the battle of Xuzhou is imminent, and hundreds of thousands of troops in the Fifth War Zone are on the front line of the Chenbing Canal. The Japanese army would certainly not risk the collapse of the entire line and draw troops against a company like ours. Then, he can only transfer troops from the northern front, where the relative pressure is lighter, to encircle and suppress us. In this way, won't the pressure on the organs and the head be reduced? Jiang Shan said with a smile.
Cheng Sankui and Liang Jianbin burst out with joy in their eyes, and Liang Jianbin followed up and added: "As long as we hold out until the organ and the chief get out of danger, we will quickly get out of contact with the Japanese army and enter the defense area of the fifth war zone. ”
Cheng Sankui patted Jiang Shan on the shoulder, almost slapped Jiang Shan to the ground, grinning and laughing: "It's really you, Brother Jiang, I can't see it, you are really hidden." A game of dead chess, stunned to make you play a clever move! Now, it's the little devil's turn to be uncomfortable! The platoon commander ordered the team, according to the plan of the commander of the Jiang company, to advance to the east! ”
Many soldiers listened to the conversation between the three of them very well, and the plan of the country turned decay into magic, so that everyone could see the hope of life. Encouraged by this force, all exhaustion was thrown out of the clouds. This lone army, deep behind enemy lines, began a magical interspersed journey.
