Chapter 248 Stick to Ren County

One of the main reasons why Mengzi became the soul of the Volunteers in such a short period of time is that he is good at thinking. Books.com ( . .

In this battle, when the time and place were favorable, the volunteers suffered such large casualties, which made the fierce son have to reflect.

"Well, we still haven't mastered the heat. If the time of the charge is a little later, the road back to Benxi Lake at the crossroads will be blocked with heavy firepower, and the blow to the bottom of the mountain for more than half an hour may result in fewer casualties. When cleaning the battlefield, Mengzi stood on the hillside, looked at the battlefield below the mountain, and said to himself.

"You're right, most of our people were injured or killed while fighting with the little devils with bayonets, and this is a lesson. It's all my fault, as soon as the battalion commander sacrificed, his eyes turned red, and he let the team members rush down regardless of it. I didn't expect that the little devil's ability to fight bayonets was so strong. In the past, when we fought with the little devils, the losses were not so big, alas, ......" Hu Daniu said with some guilt.

"Brother Hu, to be honest, I don't blame you this time, it's because our blocking plan is not well thought out. We missed this location at the intersection when we chose the blocking position, which was a big mistake. If you hadn't let the team rush down in time, the little devil would have run more.

But, then again, this time we won it all. The total number of casualties of the little devils is more than 4,000, which is twice that of us and the guerrillas. Brother Hu, do you know that although the number of deaths of the little devils is not large, most of the people injured this time were burned, smashed and injured by landmines. This is too big a blow to the hearts of the little devils and the Imperial Army, and these injured people, even if they can recover in the future, it is impossible for them to go to the battlefield again. Mengzi patted Hu Daniu's shoulder and said.

"Mengzi, you're so right. Looking at the tragic scene of these people being burned by the fire, I am afraid that I will never forget it in this life. Hu Daniu sighed and said.

"Brother Hu, let's not sigh here, I guess Commander Liu of the guerrillas has already come, let's go over and meet. This time, they also suffered a lot of casualties, more than 1,000 people, and they also transferred all their troops and made a bloody investment. By the way, big brother, I mean give them more of these trophies, which can be regarded as a little compensation for the guerrillas. If they hadn't gone around from behind, we wouldn't have dared to let go and rush down the mountain. Mengzi accompanied Hu Daniu and said as he walked down the mountain.

"Yes, although the guerrillas are not as effective as us, their desperate strength is no worse than that of our volunteers. The loot thing, just look at it, anyway, it's all about fighting little devils, and we don't lack anything on the mountain. I think it's just half of the ammunition for the family, and I'll give them the rest. Hu Daniu said generously.

"This is according to what Deputy Commander Hu said." Mengzi said with a happy smile.

"By the way, big brother, tomorrow morning, I will go back to the county seat and take a look at the situation there, if there are no special circumstances, you will withdraw from the position the night after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow is the fourth day after the capture of the county seat, and I estimate that the commander will be able to finish arranging the affairs in the county town the morning after tomorrow, and then withdraw from the county seat. Mengzi continued. Although the resistance battle was a big victory this time, the little devil would not just stop, the volunteers had such a little capital, and the fierce man didn't want to throw it all here.

"Mengzi, after we withdraw from the county, will the little devil definitely be able to go back?" Hu Daniu said thoughtfully.

"This ...... I haven't really thought about it, but I don't think the little devils will give up here. Big brother, what do you think? Mengzi was stunned for a moment. To be honest, he really didn't think about when the little devil would come back after he withdrew from the county seat.

"The little devil must come back? It's hard to say. ”

"Brother Hu, you say that......"

"Mengzi, you see, Renxian is different from several other counties in Benxi Lake. It is far away from Xinjing, and it is a dead end with no return. After Ren County, it is the deep mountains and old forests. ”

Hu Daniu looked at Mengzi, and then said: "The little devil suffered such a big loss this time, the reason is that the county town is too isolated, far away from the edge and close to the ground, once something happens, it is very difficult to reinforce, as long as the only road is blocked, even if you are in an army of 100,000, you are in a hurry, and you can't get in." My idea is that the little devil is now short of manpower and can't handle it, so this Renxian City, it will not send the Kwantung Army for the time being, and it is most likely to send a part of the Imperial Association Army to recruit a group of traitors, and like the original, set up an autonomous association or something, and maintain it. Once the little devils have their hands freed, they will send the Kwantung Army to take charge. Now send the Kwantung Army, if there are fewer people, it will not work, it is still a dish in our mouth, and there are too many people to send it. Do you think that's the case? ”

Hearing Hu Daniu say this, Mengzi frowned for a while.

"Don't say it, what the eldest brother said makes sense. But if we don't withdraw from the county, it will definitely be a big burden for us. Even if a regiment of troops is stationed in the city, if you are not careful, you will let the little devil make dumplings. Therefore, if we want to keep the county seat, we have to give up all the current base areas and concentrate all of them on the periphery of Ren County. Needless to say, even food is a problem. Mengzi thought for a moment and said.

"You're right, I think so too. The big burden of the county seat cannot be carried on its back, and it must be withdrawn. Our volunteers have not yet become strong enough to reach that point, and now they do not have this ability, and we cannot afford to carry this burden. What I mean by this is that we can talk to the guerrillas and let them set up an autonomous organization in the county, and they are experts in this regard. Hu Daniu said with a smile in the blink of his eyes.

"Big brother, you make it clearer, do you already have a better way?" As soon as Mengzi saw Hu Daniu's smiling appearance, he knew that he must have an idea.

"Look, Mengzi, in the west of the county seat, there is a regiment and two regiments garrison, and it is only a hundred and ten miles away from here. If two outpost battalions were drawn from these two regiments and stationed in the mountains forty or fifty miles away from Ren County, they would be able to pose a direct threat to the county seat. In this way, the county seat, the outpost camp and the first regiment and the second regiment just formed a ladder shape. The outpost battalion is in front, it can be attacked, there are two regiments of support in the back, it can be defended in retreat, two battalions are retracted, and the two regiments in the back can be used as backing, even if there are more little devils, it does not dare to rush over.

In the east of the county seat, there is the Li Jiataizi base, where there are thousands of militia groups, plus the team of volunteers stationed there, the combat effectiveness of these people is quite good.

To the south of the county seat is the deep forest and mountains, which is a natural barrier. To the north is the road. At the three intersections of Renxian, Benxihu, and Xinjing, we can enter and leave at any time with the guerrillas, so even if we don't stay in Renxian City, there is this autonomous association of the guerrillas, and the little devils will not dare to attack easily.

Even if one day, the Kwantung Army frees up its hands to reoccupy Renxian City, outside this city, there are a few of our regiments and a few tigers squatting outside the city, it will not be able to sleep sincerely. Hu Daniu said analytically.

"Deputy Commander, you and you wait, let me digest it....... Haha, my Deputy Commander Hu, I really didn't expect that there is still this elixir in your stuffy gourd, I think this method will work. In this way, when we meet with Commander Liu and Political Commissar Yao of the guerrillas, we will first tell him about this plan, and then we will report to the commander and discuss it with her. The method you said is very good, not only does it have no baggage, but it can also contain the energy of the little devil. When the time comes, this Renxian County, we can come if we want, and we can leave when we want, and there will be no burden. Mengzi laughed happily.

Mengzi and Hu Daniu walked down while discussing, and after a while, they came to the main battlefield of the guerrillas. At this time, Liu Jun was leading his team to clean up the battlefield.

As far as the guerrillas are concerned, although the casualties this time were relatively large, such a victory opened up the history of the guerrillas since their establishment. Therefore, the guerrillas were very excited from top to bottom.

"Commander Liu, this battlefield can't be cleaned tonight. As Deputy Commander Hu said just now, all the weapons on the battlefield belong to your guerrillas, and we can only give us some of the ammunition, and all the other supplies will also belong to you, which can be regarded as compensation for participating in the resistance war this time. As soon as Mengzi saw Liu Jun, he immediately said.

Hearing what Mengzi said, Liu Jun was stunned for a moment: "Commander Mengzi, is this true?" That's embarrassing. But seriously, these things have helped us solve big problems. On behalf of all the officers and men of the guerrillas, I thank you. "Liu Jun is not polite, of course, this is not the time to be polite.

"Commander Liu, it's a shame for you to say that. Although the volunteers and the guerrillas are under different superiors, our goal is the same when it comes to fighting the little devils. If you hadn't stepped forward this time, we wouldn't have been able to do it boldly. Besides, it's not the first time that our two teams have worked together, so let's call it communication.

By the way, Commander Liu, there is something I want to discuss with you first......" Mengzi said here, and told him what Hu Daniu had just told him.

Hearing what Mengzi said, Liu Jun's eyes couldn't help but light up: "Commander Mengzi, your analysis is really right, but I can't be the master of this matter alone." In this way, let's go back to the place where we live on the mountain, and I will immediately hold a meeting to unify our thinking, and if you have no opinions, please ask your superiors, and according to the current situation, the superiors will agree, then do according to your opinions. Liu Jun said immediately.

Liu Junzhi is a very simple person.

As soon as he returned to the headquarters at the top of the mountain, he called Political Commissar Yao and several major leaders of the guerrillas, and asked Mengzi to explain his and Hu Daniu's thoughts to everyone in detail.

These leaders of the guerrillas have not been thinking about this Renxian city for a day or two, but they are still very clear about how many catties and taels they have. This is also one of the main reasons why as soon as the volunteers proposed to attack Renxian City, the guerrillas immediately went down the mountain to help block the attack.

But after all, the main attack was the Volunteers, so there was no objection to the idea of the Volunteers wanting to abandon the county. Of course, the main reason is that they also know that it is unrealistic to stick to the county seat.

Now listening to Mengzi's analysis, these leaders can't help but have a flash of inspiration in their brains, and they are suddenly excited.

"The head of the Mengzi regiment is right, I'll just say it, we have all fought down in the county, why can't we return it to the little devil so easily......?"

"Yes, although it is unrealistic to stick to the county seat, but let the head of the fierce son analyze it like this, we really have hope......"
