Chapter XXIX
The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army took off their military hats to reveal a lean short hair, Hu Fei looked at this person a little familiar at this time, "You are, you are Wang Dongwang, political commissar of the Eighth Route Army's martial arts team?" ”
"That's right, I'm Wang Dong. Hehe, I haven't seen Captain Hu for a few days, so I don't know each other? Wang Dong had a smile on his face, but he wondered in his heart, the two of them had only drunk at the same table a few days ago, how could Hu Fei not know him so soon? Looking at Hu Fei's appearance, he is quite shrewd, it is said that he should not be a person who turns his face and forgets things.
"Hehe, no, how could I forget the political commissar Wang of the Eighth Route Army's martial arts team?" Hu Fei was a little embarrassed. After all, people recognize themselves from afar, but they don't recognize others, so it seems that they are a little reluctant to go, right? However, Hu Fei also had his own reasons, "Political Commissar Wang, did you all paint camouflage on your faces before the Eighth Route Army fought?" ”
"Camouflage? Face? Wang Dong was taken aback, stretched out his hand to wipe his face and put it in front of his eyes, okay, the whole palm was covered with sludge! I don't know how he rubbed it when he fought with the devil. I wiped it on my face with my hand, and the more I rubbed it, the darker it became, and finally I was simply rubbed into a big flower face.
Wang Dong also smiled, and a young soldier ran behind him with a towel and a kettle. Pouring water out of the kettle and soaking the towel, Wang Dong wiped a few handfuls on his face, which can be regarded as cleaning his face.
"Captain Hu, this time our Eighth Route Army Martial Arts Team owes you a favor again. If it weren't for your cavalry brigade coming in time, our martial arts team would have suffered a big loss this time! As soon as he finished wiping his face, Wang Dong gave Hu Fei a military salute to express his gratitude, and then took Hu Fei's hand and shook it up and down vigorously, with an indescribably affectionate expression.
The so-called icing on the cake is easy, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow. Hu Fei helped twice to help the idea. Last time, I sent the weapons and ammunition that the armed engineering team was short of, and if it weren't for the batch of ammunition given by Hu Fei, the armed engineering team would not have been able to fight this battle today. This time it's even better, directly on the battlefield to help the difficult martial arts team!
Of course, Wang Dong has to be polite to Hu Fei, this is whether a friendly army is better than a friendly army, and a real friendly army may not have a cavalry brigade!
"Political Commissar Wang is too polite, saying that he owes favor and does not owe enthusiasm. We are all an anti-Japanese team, fighting with devils, who doesn't have a horse high and short time? Who will not help an ally when they are in trouble? I helped you today, maybe in the future, when I Hu Fei encounters difficulties, if Political Commissar Wang happens to meet him, can you not help me? ”
"Help, of course! As long as Captain Hu is useful to my Wang Dong, just speak. As long as it is within our power and does not harm the general interests of the country and the nation, my Wang Dong and our Eighth Route Army Martial Arts Team will never shirk! ”
At this point, Hu Fei's cavalry brigade and the Yanmen Pass area martial arts team of the Eighth Route Army led by Wang Dong are a bit of allies with each other, at least, the heads of these two armies have already said that they are in trouble to help each other. Although neither of them could tell the meaning, sometimes silence is better than sound.
"Captain Hu, why are you here? It's not Zhou Gongtuo's dream, who made a special trip to relieve me, right? "It's rare that Wang Dong actually joked with Hu Fei.
"No, I received an order from the military headquarters to lead the troops to participate in the Battle of Pingxingguan. From Shahe to Fanzhi, all the good positions that can be ambushed have been occupied by the elite troops of the Gui army and the Jin Sui army, and a small miscellaneous army like me can only go around and find some miscellaneous work to do. Since Commissar Wang is here, then it is your military engineering team that ambushes the Japanese army here, right? ”
"Yes, it's the Eighth Route Army. Let Captain Hu smile, the battle was not fought well, and the casualties of the troops were not small. ”
"What battle was not fought? As long as it's a war with devils, it's a good fight! Heavy casualties? How can you fight with devils without casualties? If the little devils are so easy to fight, they won't be able to occupy the Northeast, let alone Beiping! ”
Hu Fei's remarks were obviously to the appetite of Political Commissar Wang, and the two talked back and forth, and there was a tendency to become more and more speculative the more they talked. It's just that the gunshots that come to mind all the time on the battlefield remind the two that this brutal battle is far from over, and now is not the time for the two of them to catch up and chat.
Hu Fei proposed that he was going to attack the Japanese headquarters, and Wang Dong expressed his firm support and strongly requested that the Eighth Route Army military engineering team join the ranks of the raid troops! The anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the martial arts team was high, and of course Hu Fei was not easy to refuse. In these years, anyone has the right to resist Japan, and people are willing to go to the battlefield to fight devils, why do you refuse?
As a result, the guard platoon, which originally had less than ten people left, turned into a combined raid force with more than two hundred guns! Hu Fei and Wang Dong jointly served as commanders of the joint forces.
After the formation of the joint forces was completed, Hu Feiti divided the more than 200 people into two detachments, one led by him and Political Commissar Wang, and launched an attack on the Japanese headquarters from both sides like the jaws of the pincers on the left and right!
Hu Fei brought over more than a dozen people, and there were two or three hundred people in the martial arts team, and it was clear which was stronger and which was inferior. In this case, Hu Fei has to lead a force alone to attack the enemy, not to mention whether he can lead the soldiers of the martial arts team, just say that if he behaves like this, if he changes people, he will definitely think that he is not well-intentioned, and he plans to take the opportunity to eat half of the martial arts team!
But Wang Dong doesn't think so. Because if Hu Fei didn't come today, no one knew how many of the hundreds of people in his martial arts team would be able to go back alive after the war, and maybe the whole army would be wiped out and none of them would be able to go back! Since people can save the hundreds of lives of his martial arts team and let the soldiers fight with him, then what is there?
Wang Dong agreed simply, and Hu Fei did not look embarrassed. In this way, the joint force just formed by the Eighth Route Army Armed Engineering Brigade and the Independent Cavalry Brigade was divided into two halves, and the cavalry captain Hu Fei and the political commissar of the Armed Forces Wang Dong each led a team of more than 100 people to rush to the temporary headquarters of the devil brigade from the left and right! That's the back of the giant rock.
In the Japanese army, there are permanent packhorse divisions such as the Fifth Division, and an infantry brigade has four infantry squadrons.
In order to take the main heights of Mantou Ridge, the captain of the devil brigade, Yong Yamashita put three infantry squadrons into the main peak, and the other squadron was broken up by the Eighth Route Army Martial Arts Team and the guard platoon led by Hu Fei in the battle in the ravine! There were nearly 200 devils in a squadron, and there were less than 100 people who ran back to the brigade headquarters to regroup.
What can be used by Yamashita Yong's side now are these less than 100 remnants of the defeated generals, plus 30 civilian personnel from the brigade headquarters, 100 coachmen and porters from the transport squadron, and 70 or 80 people from half of the machine gun squadron. If all these people were combined, there would be almost two hundred and fifty or sixty people.
Hu Fei and Wang Dong led more than 200 soldiers from the combined army, and it was not easy to deal with the devils who were a little more numerous.
