Chapter 50: Road Ambush Warfare
The town is not very far from Zhixi Town, and the sound of gunfire from here in Zhixi Town can be faintly heard in the town of Lock Spring.
When Li Zeming, a traitor in Suogong Town, heard the sound of gunfire from Zhixi Town, he realized that something was wrong, and he immediately asked his family to pack up and prepare to escape.
Li Zeming is the squire of Suochun Town, he took refuge with the Japanese and became the mayor of Suochun Town, and his nephew Li Shouye gathered more than 100 bandits and bullies near Suochun Town to become a security team, and Li Shouye served as the captain of the security team.
The weapons and ammunition of the security team of Suochun Town were also issued by the Japanese, but compared with the equipment of the security team of Zhixi Town, the equipment of Suochun Town was far worse.
However, the members of the security team of Lock Spring Town are bandits and bullies, these people have been exposed to guns, and they have a certain combat effectiveness.
Li Shouye had different opinions about Li Zeming's desire to rush to Pingding County, and he felt that relying on the security team to guard Suochun Town, those dirt roads would not be able to get in.
Li Shouye insisted on staying in Suochun Town, while Li Zeming insisted on going to Pingding County to seek protection from the Japanese.
The two of them argued, and finally Li Zeming took more than 50 security guards and more than 30 family members to escort the property of more than a dozen carriages and left Suochun Town.
Li Shouye took the remaining more than 50 security teams to stay in Suogong Town, and without the shackles of Li Zeming's uncle, Suogong Town became Li Shouye's world.
He began to extort the people of Suochun Town, and at the same time began to persecute the families of the soldiers who participated in the Eighth Route Army, and he wanted to ask for credit in front of the Japanese masters.
Like Zhang Lezi in Zhixi Town, Li Shouye didn't take the county brigade seriously, and he felt that the county brigade might not even be able to defeat the security team in Zhixi Town.
Especially after hearing that the gunfire in Zhixi Town had stopped, Li Shouye felt that maybe the security team of Zhixi Town had wiped out all the Tuba Road.
How would he know that Sun Weiguo had annihilated all the security teams in Zhixi Town, and at this time he was leading his troops to Suochun Town.
After the county brigade left Zhixi Town, Sun Weiguo took the second platoon and six squads as the spearhead and quickly marched towards Suochun Town.
The tragic deaths of Guan Zhou's father and sister angered Sun Weiguo, and he wanted to completely eliminate the traitors in Pingding County.
At present, the main force of the Japanese army is fighting against the main force of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the Japanese troops in Pingding County are afraid that the county brigade will not dare to go out of the city, and this is a good opportunity for Sun Weiguo to act.
Thirteen soldiers of the county brigade ran quickly along the road under the leadership of Sun Weiguo, and when they marched for about half an hour, Sun Weiguo raised his right hand.
The fighters immediately stopped marching, they quickly fell to the ground, and a crooked light machine gun was also erected.
Sun Weiguo was half-squatting on the ground, he raised his binoculars to observe the situation in front of him, and Li Zeming's team fleeing to the county appeared in Sun Weiguo's sight.
Seeing more than 50 men wearing black clothes and black pants with guns appearing, Sun Weiguo didn't need to think about it to know that this must be a traitor.
He immediately ordered the fighters to be ready for battle, and at the same time sent a fighter to inform the troops behind.
After a while, Hong Zhiqiang, Cheng Zhan and others came here with the soldiers.
The mortars and heavy machine guns transported by the two carriages were also hurriedly taken down, and Zhao Wei led the soldiers of the heavy machine gun squad to set up two Makqin heavy machine guns.
On the stone, the fighters with the mortar squad set up two mortars, and the three light machine guns of the Liang Tieniu machine gun squad were also erected.
"There were more than eighty people, armed with four Czech light machine guns, and the rest were armed with Type 38 rifles." Sun Weiguo said softly while observing.
"Squadron Leader, how to fight?" Hong Zhiqiang immediately asked.
"The machine gun platoon assists in the battle, and the main attack is still your first and second platoons, so you are not allowed to cause casualties." Sun Weiguo gave the order.
Fighting these traitor security teams is simply a good way to train your troops.
These traitor security teams are not strong in combat and will not cause casualties to the troops, while the recruits can carry out actual combat, which is a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.
After Hong Zhiqiang and Cheng Zhan heard Sun Weiguo's order, the two of them nodded, and they hurriedly began to deploy their positions.
The warriors began to hide on both sides of the road, and the wagons were pulled aside.
Sun Weiguo hid behind the soldiers with a platoon of machine guns, although Sun Weiguo gave the task of annihilating traitors to the first and second platoons.
But at critical times, if there was a mistake in the first and second platoons, he would direct the cannon platoon to provide immediate support.
Li Zeming and the others did not notice the situation of the soldiers of the county brigade in the distance, and they also drove the carriage towards the front.
In fact, if it weren't for Sun Weiguo's special forces background, his hearing was beyond ordinary people, it was very likely that this encounter would have been an encounter.
Counting Li Zeming's family, a team of more than 100 people gradually drilled into the ambush circle set up by the county brigade.
Li Zeming's family members were all in the carriage, and more than 80 armed men were guarding both sides of the carriage.
Four strong men carried Czech light machine guns to open the way in front, even if they encountered ordinary bandits, they did not dare to rashly act when they saw this posture.
It's just that the county brigade is different, they are well-equipped, and the soldiers are holding their breath, and when they see the traitor in sight, they can't wait to shoot immediately.
Sun Weiguo's order was not given, and the soldiers did not dare to shoot indiscriminately, and after the battle in Zhixi Town, these soldiers had some improvement.
When Li Zeming's team entered the ambush circle, Sun Weiguo gave the order to shoot.
He was holding a Type 38 rifle and aimed at a strong man with a Czech light machine gun, but he did not shoot.
Sun Weiguo wanted to see if the soldiers in the first and second platoons were able to hit the four sharpshooters with light machine guns.
"Boom, boom." The grenadier squad was the first to fire grenades, and one grenade after another exploded near the wagon.
Compared with the shooting in Zhixi Town, the shooting accuracy of the grenadier squad has improved a lot, and the first three grenades to be fired all exploded under the feet of the traitors.
Immediately after that, three more grenades were fired, and these three grenades exploded near the traitors' side, and the shrapnel was enough to kill the traitors.
Six grenades exploded, and more than a dozen traitors fell to the ground, followed by five crooked light machine guns.
A traitor fell to the ground, and they didn't have time to react.
More than 30 family members threw away their guns as soon as possible, and they raised their hands.
After Li Zeming, who was in the carriage, heard the sound of gunfire, he opened the curtain of the car with a trembling cane, and saw that most of the traitors had been killed, and his face turned pale.
"Lay down your arms at once, don't resist." Li Zeming hurriedly shouted.
After hearing Li Zeming's voice, the traitors dropped their weapons one after another and raised their hands like the family members.
