Chapter 31 Forming a Plainclothes Team
At the end of a high-level meeting between the two armies, which was not very pleasant, Hu Fei led his troops to leave Tanghui, the headquarters of the Third Army, and returned to the 88th Column Defense Zone. As soon as he returned to the station, he immediately called Cheng Laogang and ordered the reconnaissance battalion commander to strengthen the reconnaissance of the movements of the Japanese invaders.
Hu Fei judged based on the recent situation that the Japanese would probably launch an attack on an unprecedented scale at any time. Although the various units of the National Army in Zhongtiao Mountain have been prepared, they may not be able to stop the large-scale attack suddenly launched by the Japanese invaders, and Hu Fei must be prepared in advance.
The most sudden means on the battlefield is to make a sudden attack, and to catch the opponent off guard and achieve unexpected results. In a series of major battles, such as the Battle of Shanghai, the Battle of Xuzhou, and the Battle of Taiyuan, there were always cases of Japanese plainclothes teams pretending to be Chinese civilians to attack our troops.
This became a strange thing at the time. On our territory in China, the Japanese can disguise themselves as Chinese civilians to attack the Chinese army without hindrance, while our own army is beaten and restrained everywhere.
Although the various departments of the national army knew about this phenomenon, they did not have a very good way to deal with it, but in the military intelligence reports, the various departments often warned each other: Be careful of the plainclothes units of the Japanese army, and which troops and which generals were attacked by the plainclothes teams and spilled blood on the battlefield.
The 88th Column is also within the establishment of the national army, and Hu Fei has also received many similar military intelligence reports. I didn't care about it before, but today, after receiving a similar military intelligence report again, Hu Fei's mind suddenly had a flash of inspiration: The devil will use the plainclothes team, there is no reason why we can't do it ourselves, right?
Civilian clothes, every soldier has it, and whoever takes off his military uniform is a plainclothes team. But here's a problem: devils dressed up as ordinary people can approach the national army troops lightly, because the national army will not shoot at the common people. But the devils are different, if some ordinary people dare to approach the devil troops without authorization, the Japanese devils really dare to shoot with machine guns!
It doesn't work to disguise yourself as an ordinary person, so you have to improve your makeup methods and dress up as a devil directly! Anyway, the appearance of the Chinese and the Japanese is similar, and when they wear Japanese military uniforms, they look like Japanese soldiers, the difference is that they do not know Japanese.
This is also easy to solve. The reconnaissance battalion of the 88th Column has been dealing with the Japanese invaders for a long time, and has trained many Japanese translators. Take Cheng Laozhuan as an example, this old man was illiterate at the beginning, but now people can not only write a neat brush hand, but also speak fluent Japanese.
In fact, it is most appropriate for the reconnaissance battalion to serve as a plainclothes team, but the reconnaissance battalion has its own tasks, and the formation of a plainclothes team has to find someone else. Who is the right person to look for? After thinking about it, Hu Fei suddenly remembered a person, brush!
Yang Jinkai, the original Taiyuan City gangster, is now serving as an independent battalion commander, with a group of spies and puppet soldiers who have come over from the uprising, and it can be said that they have nothing to do except daily training, and it is obviously suitable to form them into a plainclothes team! The traitors have been dealing with the Japanese for a long time and are familiar with the behavior and habits of the devils. Suitable is appropriate, but these people alone seem to owe a little.
It's okay when training, but it doesn't mean it's okay to go to the battlefield, especially these people have been traitors before, and they are tainted in their conduct, so they can't be guarded against.
To form a new force, it is necessary to draw elites from other units to support it. Especially this army, which is not very good at politics, needs a group of experienced veterans to guide it. Hu Fei silently screened the troops under his command in his heart, and it seemed that only Gou Tianxiao's independent regiment could be dispatched to support the elite support plainclothes team.
Ji Jinbiao's troops were all cavalry, and Cheng Shuangxi's third regiment was the puppet army of the uprising, and these two troops were excluded in the first place; The two regiments of Li San and Yang Jinsheng are the main force and leading troops of the 88th Column, and it is not suitable to transfer manpower from outside; After such a comparison, Gou Tianxiao's independent regiment is suitable.
As soon as Gou Tianxiao came over and told him about the matter, Commander Gou patted his chest and agreed: I am a veteran who can definitely be trusted! Well, this problem is solved. The next step is to gather the people and change their clothes!
As soon as the brush heard that the independent battalion should be converted into a plainclothes team, he was happy. It's been a few months, and his independent battalion has eaten and practiced every day, and when he is tired from practice, he eats and sleeps well. It's like this every day, he's naturally active, and he's tired of doing things like this every day. Now that he finally has something to do, the brush's face is red with excitement.
Looking at the more than 500 soldiers standing in front of him, Hu Fei was quite satisfied. These were traitors, puppet soldiers, or robbers who robbed homes and houses, and hooligans who extorted money, but now they are standing there one by one with their chests up and their heads up, their necks are stalked, who dares to say that they are a group of scum?
"Brethren! Welcome to the 88 Vertical Plainclothes Team! "Hu Fei stood at the front of the team and enthusiastically told this group of people about the anti-Japanese form, the importance of the plainclothes team, and the glory of their national merits." One person makes meritorious service, and the whole family is glorious! Brothers, I hope that you will make more meritorious deeds in the future, so that your parents, brothers and sisters will all be proud of you! ”
As soon as Hu Fei finished saying the last word, he was looking at more than 500 people with red faces, not ashamed, but excited. Who doesn't want to make their loved ones proud of themselves? They didn't have the ability or the opportunity before, but now that the opportunity has finally appeared, then don't do it desperately!
After the mobilization, it is time to finalize the formation. Hu Fei divided the special team into three companies, one company wore civilian clothes for ordinary people, the second company wore the military uniform of devils, and the third company wore the military uniform of the puppet army. Usually, the three companies still train next to the detachment headquarters, and when they use which company is dispatched, they go out to perform tasks, and then go back to the headquarters to stay when there is no task, which can be regarded as Hu Fei leaving a guard battalion by his side.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon of 7 May 1941, the Japanese invaders concentrated six divisions, three brigades, two puppet army divisions, plus several hundred planes, and suddenly launched an attack on all defense areas of our Zhongtiao Mountain National Army at the same time! The 19 divisions of our defenders of Zhongtiao Mountain immediately counterattacked.
The Japanese invaders' fierce ground-to-air fire blew the sky red, and our officers and men suffered heavy casualties under the Japanese invaders' planes and artillery. The soldiers braved the heavy artillery and tanks on the ground, and the planes in the sky bombed, heroically holding their positions and never taking a step back!
The devils attack, our army defends, and the two sides fight desperately. Our officers and men do not have advanced weapons, but they have a will that is stronger than steel. The devils tried their best to attack but never made progress, but paid more lives. Anda Twenty-Three was in a hurry, and this old devil was in a hurry and quietly used poison gas bombs on the battlefield!
