Chapter 6 Wang Lushui
Wang Lushui is a native of Pingxiang, Jiangxi, after graduating from high school, he went to a normal school, joined the Communist Youth League in the normal school, and joined the Red Army in 1929.
Before the reorganization of the Red Army, Wang Lushui served as the political commissar of the Red Fifth Regiment of the Second Red Division, and after the reorganization, he became an instructor of the second battalion of the 685th Regiment for a short period of time, and the troops crossed the river to Houma, Shanxi, due to the discord between Huang Yongsheng, the head of the 685th Regiment, and Deng Hua, the director of the Political Training Office, the 115th Division adjusted the leadership of the 685th Regiment, Huang Yongsheng was transferred to the Yang Chengwu Independent Regiment adapted from the First Red Division as the deputy head of the regiment, and Yang Dezhi, the teacher of the Second Red Division, came back from the second phase of the Anti-Japanese University to take over as the head of the 685th Regiment, and Wang Lushui was promoted to the first deputy director of the Political Training Office of the 685th Regiment.
In the battle of Pingxingguan, Wang Lushui was seriously injured in the head, and he was unconscious for a long time after being sent to the field ambulance.
Historically, Wang Lushui died in the battle to capture Tengxian County on December 13, 1945 after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, and was the commander and political commissar of the Shandong Eighth Division at that time.
This year, Wang Lushui was 24 years old.
After the Zunyi Conference on the Long March, the Red Army was downsized, transferred from the Red 15th Division, that is, the International Division of the Young Communist Party, to the Red Second Division, and completed the Long March with the Fifth Regiment of the Red Second Division. The leaders of the 2nd Red Division and the 5th Red Regiment were his old leaders. Now, Xiao Siming, who has crossed the soul, has fused the memories of the red ghost Xiao Siming, and this period of recuperation is with Wang Lushui day and night, and the relationship is naturally very good. It's just that during the recuperation period, Xiao Siming needed to be familiar with this era most of the time, observed silently, and rarely spoke.
Xiao Siming smiled, didn't answer Wang Lushui's words again, stuffed the compressed biscuits that Mei Ying stuffed into his mouth, bent down to unload the military leather bag that the devil squad leader was carrying diagonally, opened it, took out the map and documents inside and looked at it.
Command knives, binoculars, compasses, and pistols, these four things were the favorite objects of Japanese officers. But Xiao Siming didn't take the four things of the devil squad leader at all, but went to look through the map and documents first.
This is an indispensable quality for military commanders!
Little Japan had been plotting to invade China for a long time, and the military map drawn was more detailed and reliable than Yan Xishan's.
The documents and military maps of the Japanese army were all in Japanese, and they had to be translated to understand.
When the 115th Division was reorganized, there was a Japanese teacher named Zhang Xiuke, who was the younger brother of the famous writer Xiao Hong. Therefore, many cadres and soldiers of the 115th Division can speak a few simple words of Japanese, such as surrendering guns and not killing, and the Eighth Route Army giving preferential treatment to prisoners.
The second foreign language that Xiao Siming took when he went to college before the soul crossing was Japanese, and there was no difficulty in reading these simple documents and maps.
Fortunately, Xiao Siming, the red ghost who fused his memory, Xiao Siming, had been living and going to school with his parents in Hong Kong, Guangzhou, and Shanghai, and he knew a little Japanese. Therefore, Xiao Siming's ability to understand the maps and documents of the Japanese army is not surprising in the eyes of Wang Lushui and other old Red Armymen.
Mei Ying also understands Japanese, but she has not been in the Eighth Route Army for a long time, does not understand military affairs, and does not have the consciousness to read the maps and documents of the Japanese army first.
Wang Lushui doesn't understand Japanese and can't read.
In fact, Xiao Siming didn't need to look at the maps and documents of the Japanese army to know the current situation of friend and foe. After all, the Jin-Cha-Ji border anti-eight-way siege was an important battle when our army first entered the battlefield of resistance against Japan, and it was also the first time that the Japanese army invading China failed in a campaign offensive operation, which is of great significance. Xiao Siming, who had attended the Shijiazhuang Army Command College, worked as a training staff officer in a certain group army, and studied the history of the war, could not have studied this campaign without thinking about it. However, after all, it is the early stage of the anti-Japanese war, and there are no high-speed railways, highways, national highways, provincial roads, county and township roads in later generations, and the appearance of towns and villages is by no means the same. Otherwise, it will be difficult to get out of the mountains!
When the Eighth Route Army went north to resist Japan, there was no military map of Shanxi, and the headquarters asked Yan Xishan for it once, but did not come once. The only military map of Shanxi at the headquarters is still captured by our army from the Japanese army in an ambush.
It can be seen how precious it is to be able to get a military map at this time.
After looking at it for a while, Xiao Siming raised his head and said to Wang Lushui and Mei Ying, who were already standing beside him: "Political commissar, Sister Mei, this Japanese army is the 109th Wing of the 118th Infantry Brigade of the 136th Division. Judging from the documents of the Japanese army, the 109th Division of the Japanese army this time dispatched troops to participate in the eight-way siege of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei border region, and the attack was directed at Wutai County, the hinterland of the border region. The Japanese army may have inaccurate intelligence, thinking that the headquarters of Political Commissar Nie is still in Wutai County. This Japanese force was the vanguard flank search force of the Japanese army. The main force of the Japanese army should be preparing to attack and advance north along the highway through Shangshe and Xiashe, and then rush to Wutai County after crossing the Hutuo River. ”
Although Wang Lushui doesn't know Japanese, he has no problem reading the map.
After taking the map in Xiao Siming's hand and looking at it for a while, Wang Lushui said: "Your analysis is reasonable, you should report this situation to Political Commissar Nie immediately!" ”
Nie Rongzhen is now the commander and political commissar of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the cadres and soldiers of the Jin-Chahar-Hebei generally call him Commander Nie. Wang Lushui and they belonged to the 115th Brigade of the 343rd Division, and when they called Nie Rongzhen, the old political commissar of the Red First Army, they were also used to calling Nie Political Commissar.
There is no radio, there is no cavalry communicator, and this is so far from Fuping County, where the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region is now, how can it be reported?
Xiao Siming didn't discuss it with Wang Lushui again, and said directly: "You can't stay in this place anymore!" It is not a trivial matter for a squad of little devils to be wiped out. The little devils in the county town can't contact this team, and it is likely that a large force will be sent to search for and retaliate early tomorrow morning at the latest, and we will have to move immediately. Political commissar, Sister Mei, we divide the work, the political commissar is responsible for organizing people to clean up the battlefield, and must put away all guns and ammunition and not lose them. Sister Mei immediately went back to the cave to prepare for the transfer. I went to the Tibetan Mountain Temple in front, and there were three tasks, one was that there was no big livestock carrying supplies for the devils here, and I judged that the animals and supplies of the little devils were still left in the Tibetan Mountain Temple, and they had to be seized without damage; The second is to see if we can find the monks of the Tibetan Mountain Temple, and ask them to go out of the mountains to find our troops, guerrillas, and work teams, and report the enemy situation to their superiors. The third is to find some porters to help us carry the captured weapons and ammunition, and make stretchers to carry the wounded! ”
There was a hint of command in the tone of these words, not like a subordinate reporting to a superior, but a bit of a superior deploying tasks to a subordinate subordinate.
In this team of wounded, Wang Lushui has the highest level and is the leader of course!
Wang Lushui didn't hear it, or didn't care about the commanding tone in Xiao Siming's tone. On the contrary, as soon as he heard that the little devil might have left big livestock and supplies in the Tibetan Mountain Temple, Wang Lushui's eyes lit up and urged: "Okay, you bring someone, you can cover each other, and it is convenient to do things." We must think of finding our people and informing them of the enemy's situation. Especially the little devil's livestock and provisions, all of which are indispensable! The meat delivered to the mouth, Lao Tzu must eat it! ”
There is no way, our army's logistics supply is difficult, as long as the cadres and soldiers hear that they can capture the enemy's supplies, their eyes will glow green!
Xiao Siming shouted at that time: "Chen Desheng, change into the Japanese army's uniform, let me go!" ”
Chen Desheng is a native of Xingguo, Jiangxi, and a red imp who joined the army before the Long March. During the Battle of Pingxingguan, Chen Desheng was the communicator of the 685th Regiment, and when he was ordered by the regiment commander Yang Dezhi to notify the troops to reinforce the Lao Yemiao Heights, he was shot in the abdomen, which was a penetrating wound, and now he is basically healed, although the action is not very convenient, but he can participate in the battle.
It is said that Chen Desheng's original name was Chen Fucai, and now this name was given by Liu Yalou, the old political commissar of the Second Red Division, which means to encourage him to resolutely struggle and strive for continuous meritorious service for the victory of the revolution.
Chen Desheng shouted "yes" loudly when he heard this, and turned around to peel off the military uniform of the devil grenadier squad leader.
Xiao Siming immediately shouted: "Wear the uniform of an ordinary Japanese soldier!" ”
Chen Desheng muttered in a low voice: "It's more majestic to wear an officer's costume!" ”
Muttering and muttering, Chen Desheng immediately understood the trick, there were few Japanese officers, and the little devils who stayed behind in the Tibetan Mountain Temple could see at a glance whether they were disguised or not. Disguised as an ordinary soldier may also be quickly recognized, but after all, it will take a little longer.
Xiao Siming also took off his gray military uniform and changed into a Japanese army's coat and coat.
After the two of them changed their clothes, Wang Lushui took off the binoculars on the chest of the leader of the devil squad and handed it to Xiao Siming, Xiao Siming waved his hand and didn't ask for it, led Chen Desheng, and walked along the mountain path towards the Tibetan Mountain Temple.
The Tibetan Mountain Temple is located in a valley, only about four or five miles away from the deep ravine where Xiao Siming sniped the Japanese sniper team.
It is impossible to know when the Tibetan Mountain Temple was built. The current Tibetan Mountain Temple is rebuilt in the 12th year of Jin Dading, and has been repeatedly repaired in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.
Tibetan Mountain Ancestral Hall is built according to the mountain, sits in the north and faces south, the building is distributed on the platform of three floors of ascending, the front of the ancestral hall is the archway of "Tibetan Lonely Shengjing" in the Ming Dynasty, the central axis of the temple is successively arranged on the mountain gate, the music platform, the main hall, the dormitory, the dressing floor, the east and west sides are the bell and drum tower, the matching hall and the ear hall. In addition to some of the beams of the dormitory to preserve the style of the Jin Dynasty, the rest are Qing Dynasty buildings.
Xiao Siming is here to fight devils, not to travel, and he is not interested in the architectural style of the Tibetan Mountain Temple.
With a cotton military hat, leather boots, a yellow coat, bullet boxes and grenades hanging on the belt, a leather bag on their backs, and a 38 cover on their shoulders, Xiao Siming and Chen Desheng swaggered down the steps leading to the mountain gate under the watchful eye of a Japanese sentry standing guard in front of the gate of the Tibetan Mountain Ancestral Hall.
It wasn't until he walked to the mountain gate that the devil sentry felt that the faces of these two people were very unfamiliar, and hurriedly covered the 38 big cover, blocked the way, and asked for the password.
Xiao Siming killed all the little devils who entered the back mountain to search and reinforce, where would he know what the little devil's password was? However, it was only then that the devil sentry remembered to ask for the password, and it was obviously too late.
Xiao Siming scolded "Baga" in his mouth, waved out his right hand, and went up directly to slap the devil sentry, which made the guy stunned, staring at a pair of confused eyes, and his right hand involuntarily let go of the gun in his hand, and reflexively raised his hand to touch the beaten face.
The Japanese army is a fascist army in its bones, and it is normal for officers to physically punish soldiers. Not to mention ordinary soldiers, it is not uncommon for those lieutenants, adjutants, and generals to be slapped by their superiors.
At the moment when the devil sentry was beaten and confused, Xiao Siming stepped over the sentry's side, raised his right arm suddenly, clamped the neck of the devil sentry, and twisted it with all his strength, the devil sentry's eyes bulged out, and his face turned black and purple, and after a while, his body softened, and the 38 big cover in his hand also fell to the ground.
