Chapter 80: The First Battle Shows Its Might
After chasing for a while, Lu Caiting ordered to stop the pursuit, and this ambush battle was easily resolved, Lu Caiting led the soldiers back to the battlefield site, packed up the guns and ammunition, the steel helmet of the devil and the armed belt of the Imperial Army, and then dug a big pit on the side of the road to bury the body of the devil and the Imperial Army, because there were no ravines and ravines between the mountains in this area.

The seriously wounded and sacrificed soldiers on their side have been sent back to the mountains by the ambulances of the medical team, and the lightly wounded soldiers have been bandaged and left behind, and the battlefield has been cleaned, and the craters and blood stains on the road have also been covered with dust, and there is no trace of fierce fighters to be seen.
Lu Caiting then led the soldiers to ambush on the hillside by the road, monitoring the direction of Shuangji Town, in case Lingmu escaped back to the stronghold of the fort in Shuangji Town, and then led the troops to counterattack and return, monitoring for a while, but there was no movement.
Zhu Ke said impatiently; "This Japanese donkey has been beaten stupid by us, where do you dare to come again? Let's go back to the mountain. ”
Lu Caiting looked at the winding road in the direction of Shuangji Town, and nodded; "It seems that Gu Tao and they have cut off the telephone lines from the stronghold of the fort in Shuangji Town to the county seat and the various stations of the Devil Emperor Allied Army, after Lingmu returned to the stronghold, he couldn't get through the phone, and he didn't know that we were the New Fourth Army that came out there? He must be very annoyed, and he doesn't dare to rush back easily, he must have sent someone to the county seat to report to the gendarmerie, I don't know how long it will be delayed? Lingmu definitely didn't dare to come, just according to what Deputy Battalion Commander Zhu said, let's go back and go to the big cave to help the captain carry their things, they should have finished the soldiers. ”
Zhu Meng immediately turned around and waved his hand to the soldiers and gave an order, retreating to the big karst cave under the Tiantai slope, and the team immediately quickly moved to the big karst cave on the side of the highway in the direction of Jiangjun Ao and Dongqiao Village, and soon reached the front of the big karst cave.
The political commissar and the captain were directing the soldiers and villagers to unload the captured booty from the car, Lin Zhifeng saw Lu Caiting and the soldiers of his five battalions returning, and hurriedly raised his hand to Lu Caiting, Lu Caiting trotted over, reported the battle situation to the political commissar and the captain, annihilated sixteen devils, forty-two people of the Imperial Army, two of his own soldiers were sacrificed, five were seriously injured, eight were lightly injured, and sixty-one rifles and two light machine guns were captured.
Lin Zhifeng listened to his report and happily punched him in the chest; "Okay! The task was completed very beautifully, and it was only this casualty that so many devils and two dogs were eliminated. ”
Lu Caiting was about to ask the captain about the battle situation there, but when he saw Zhao Sihai's face full of sadness, he sighed and blamed himself; "It seems that the war is a thing, our Lao Zhao is really not this piece of material, our side has suffered a lot of losses, probably counted, there are more than forty sacrifices, and more than ten are seriously injured, at that time, we were simply stunned by the devil's mortar, if it weren't for the chief of staff and Captain Shen to make a quick decision, immediately ordered the snipers to gather the artillery that shot the devil and used grenades to blow up the artillery group, I don't know how bad the consequences were? What a shame! ”
Lu Caiting patted him on the shoulder and comforted; "Our soldiers are on the battlefield for the first time, and suddenly encountered the bombardment of the devil's artillery group, they have no experience, they will definitely be overwhelmed, the captain does not have to blame himself, if this situation is encountered next time, the soldiers will not be afraid, even if they dodge, they will not panic."
Lin Zhifeng said on the side; "Captain, now is not the time to discuss the battle situation, we will have a meeting to study it later, and now we still command the soldiers to transfer the loot up the mountain as soon as possible."
The number of people is strong, and the unloading car is quickly completed, and the items are stacked on the ground, and the empty car that has unloaded the items is driven into the big karst cave again and again, and the hole is still hidden with branches.
A small part of the items by the villagers of horses and mule team on the mountain road on the mountain road general ao, Dongqiao Village, most of the items are transported to the ladder slope, directly transported to the mountain, the original guns group comrades considering the mountain to carry food items is very difficult, they designed and manufactured a lifting hoist flat crane, using the hoist sliding principle, wire disc crane, can directly rise to the top of the mountain from the bottom of the ladder slope, the wire reel is stirred by manpower, the crane can be lifted freely, so that manpower and time are greatly saved, On weekdays, the crane rises on the top of the mountain, there is a rope under the mountain, if there is something to carry, the people under the mountain shake the rope, the top of the rope is tied to Xiangling, the mountain puts down the gourd flat crane, of course, the hoist flat crane is also in the hidden place of the woods next to the slope of the ladder, out of the comrades on the mountain, it is difficult for other people to find.
The items were quickly transferred, and the soldiers also returned to the camp on the mountain to rest, and several column leaders came to the storehouse of the cave to inspect the captured spoils, Ning Chenlong introduced to everyone; "The trophies seized this time, the whole box of weapons and equipment is the equipment of a brigade of devils, one hundred and fifty boxes of rifles with a large official three and eight large covers, 1,500 rifles, 20 heavy machine guns, 40 light machine guns, 40 mortars, 20 bulk light 92 infantry guns, a whole box of bullets, a whole box of shells, some steel helmets, military uniforms and belts, marching tents and other military supplies, and more than 180 rifles, 12 light machine guns, 8 mortars, four of which were damaged by our grenades, But the comrades of the firearms group have seen it and can fix it. ”
Looking at the stacked weapons, equipment, ammunition, and munitions in the room, several leaders were so happy that they couldn't help but reach out and touch this and there, as if walking into a palace full of gold and jewelry, which made people doubt in a dream.
After the leaders were happy for a while, Ning Chenlong reported to Lin Zhifeng and Zhao Sihai; "Political commissar, captain, in view of the current situation of the devil's upcoming summer clean-up and sweep, I suggest that our column should support the Susi detachment with some of the weapons captured this time, six heavy machine guns, twelve light machine guns, ten mortars, eight ninety-two infantry guns, five hundred rifles, plus a whole box of bullets, shells and munitions, as well as a hundred mines that we have made now, the Susi detachment has our support this time, especially with mortars, infantry guns and mines, they will be able to smash the devil's summer sweep."
As soon as Ning Chenlong's words were finished, instructor Duan Xingguo clapped his hands happily; "The chief of staff is too thoughtful, the Susi detachment has these weapons and ammunition, especially mortars, infantry guns and light and heavy machine guns, like a tiger with wings, it is not afraid of the devil's sweep, it is really our good chief of staff!" It can be seen that his heart is still concerned about his original troops.
Zhao Sihai couldn't help but stretch out his hand and scratch the roots of his head and ears, and said hesitantly; "Isn't it more? Let's ambush the devils this time, the devils will definitely retaliate, they will start attacking our camp, and we also need weapons and ammunition! ”
Lin Zhifeng glanced at him and smiled generously; "Lao Zhao, let's have a sense of the overall situation, and it is appropriate for fraternal troops to support each other, just follow the words of the chief of staff, immediately send someone to prepare these things for them, and release carrier pigeons to inform them to send someone to pick them up."
Lu Caiting also comforted Zhao Sihai; "Captain, although the area is open and deep, but most of them are puddles and flat terrain, unlike our mountains, which have cliffs and cliffs to cover, and are also easy to hide, their conditions are much more difficult, and it is appropriate to give them some support and cooperation, the more active they are under the mountain, the safer our mountains will be, this is called the relationship between lips and teeth."
Zhao Sihai replied embarrassedly; "Political commissar, the deputy captain is right, in fact, it's nothing, that's what I said, mainly because our sacrifice is too much, and my heart hurts a lot."
Duan Xingguo sincerely thanked Lin Zhifeng, Lu Caiting, Ning Chenlong, and Zhao Sihai on the side; "On behalf of the Susi detachment, I would like to thank the leaders of the column for their support, and all the commanders and fighters of the Susi detachment will never live up to the expectations of the column and the Susi people with this batch of weapons, and they will definitely beat the little devils hard."
Lin Zhifeng is funny and authentic; "After all, Susie's detachment is your mother's family, is it normal for you to worry about your mother's family!"
Everyone laughed, and Lin Zhifeng said to a few people; "Let's go and see the situation of the wounded, make a detailed statistical report on the number of people who died in each battalion, distribute the pension to the families of the martyrs, and hold a grand memorial service for them."
