Chapter Eighty-Five: The Battle of Dongqiao Town
The scouts kept reporting the battle situation in front of them to the military seats. Gao Quan and his guard company did not go to the place where the rebels were fighting, nor did they go back to the puppet army camp to take command, he was on the street directly opposite the exit of the town.
Ten minutes into the start of the battle in the town, an earth-shattering shout of killing suddenly sounded outside the town! A fiery dragon approached quickly from far and near. Fifteen minutes, only fifteen minutes after the battle in the town began, the army outside the town had already arrived at the gate of Dongqiao Town!
"It's coming so fast!" A cheerful smile appeared on Gao Quan's face, and he turned to meet the team from outside the town.
"Throne!" In the midst of a loud shout, a colonel-officer who looked shrewd and capable stood in front of Gao Quan and saluted.
"Yuanqing, it's coming so fast." Gao Quan greeted with a smile and it was Sun Yuanqing, the head of the secret service group.
"Please assign the mission!" It wasn't until he saw Gao Quan with his own eyes that Sun Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief. It's so hard! The military seat took 300 people into the town occupied by the devils to recruit the puppet army, if something bad happens, the commanders in the army will not kill him alive?
"Send a battalion to control the puppet army camp outside the town, and send another battalion to take care of the puppet army who are fighting. They have already revolted, and now they are the troops of my 500th Army. If the war doesn't go well, replace them, and the devils in the town must be annihilated as soon as possible! ”
The devil's reinforcements have always come quickly, whether it is Zhongxiang or Jingshan, which is not far from Dongqiao Town, Gao Quan doesn't want to have a decisive battle with the devil's army here. To control the puppet army camp outside the town, the first thing is to let the remaining puppet troops in the camp see the military prestige of our army, so as to increase the confidence of these puppet soldiers; At the same time, there are not only empty houses in the puppet army camp, but there are still a lot of good things in it, and sending a battalion over can also help the puppet army move their homes. As soon as the things were emptied, it could be regarded as helping the rebels solve their worries.
"Yes!" Sun Yuanqing has been following Gao Quan for many years, and he has a very thorough understanding of Gao Quan's thoughts, and now when he hears these two orders, he knows what they mean.
The marching group that was heading into the town split up and left the town, and the rest continued with torches to the most lively part of the town. Gao Quan was no longer interested in fighting at this level. There is a total of one squadron of devils in the town, in addition to the two thousand puppet troops, and now hundreds of elites of the special service group have been added, if the battle can't end before dawn, then the combat effectiveness of this group of devils is really terrifying.
"With the assistance of the secret service group, the rebels have broken through the gate of the devil's barracks and are rushing to the barracks."
"The rebel army has entered the Japanese headquarters and is now searching for the enemy!"
The good news is frequent, with the addition of the special service group, the two rebels are progressing smoothly, and the time is still more than two hours before dawn. At this momentum, the troops will definitely be able to end the fighting and withdraw before dawn. This time, Dongqiao Town's absorption of the puppet army was smooth, but the materials obtained this time seemed to be a little small! Jun Zuo personally took action, but he only harvested more than 2,000 puppet troops, this result seems to be a bit small, and Gao Quan still has a little regret in his heart.
"Military seat," Shi Lei mysteriously approached Gao Quan and reported: "I was chatting with Gao Desheng just now, and I heard that there is an oil depot in Zhongxiang City, and there seems to be a lot of diesel in it!" ”
Diesel fuel! Gao Quan's eyes lit up when he heard these two words. His mobile detachment has not been able to play a big role until now, because diesel fuel has not been enough. This thing is a shortage of materials, even if Gao Quan has the cheekiness to ask for it in the war zone, Chief Li is not rich in his hands. The only way out is still the wool from the sheep, the convoy is snatched from the devils, and the diesel fuel is still taken from the devils! He has been keeping an eye on the movement of diesel, but he didn't know that the oil depot was in Zhongxiang City.
Whether it's stealing or robbing, it's not about burning him down. It's easy to go to the oil depot where you fried the devil, but it's a bit difficult to take out the oil secretly!
"In this way, stone, pay attention to the situation on the side of Zhong Xiang. Also, hurry up and find me a path to Zhongxiang, and let's go to Zhongxiang County tomorrow. After Gao Quan finished assigning the task to the commander of the reconnaissance regiment, he turned his face and ordered the commander of the special battalion: "Yuanqing, immediately send all the special battalions up, quickly end the battle, and replace the puppet army for me!" ”
"Yes!" The two regimental commanders agreed, turned around and went to carry out their orders.
When the gate of the headquarters was breached, Araki Shaosa ordered his telegraph operator to send a telegram to Zhong Xiang's brigade headquarters, and finally appealed: Send aviation troops to bomb Dongqiao Town! Shao Zuo wants to be loyal to the emperor and burn all the jade with his Dongqiao Town! Shaozuo's courage shook the heavens and the earth, but he forgot that even if his brigade commander could really agree to send him a plane to bomb him despite the fierce fighting ahead, it would be after dawn, and the plane would not be able to see the course clearly at night, and the air force would not let their pilots take off at night!
Twenty minutes after the telegram was sent, Araki had already burned the flag documents, and his last dozen soldiers were greeted with an angry rebel.
Looking at these usually docile puppet soldiers, who rushed over with a roar like a furious beast at this time, Araki Shaosa's eyes widened in surprise, and he was overwhelmed by the surging crowd. Although Shao Zuo put up a heroic resistance at the last moment, when the angry crowd surrounded him, even the most stubborn resistance became futile.
Araki Shaosa died, and all the devils in the city died that night, except for a few who escaped by burrowing into the chicken coop and dog pens.
A scout came to report that Zhong Xiang's devil brigade had left the city and was rushing to Dongqiao Town.
Will the devil just come out with a brigade? Gao Quan felt that the number of devils coming out was a bit insufficient. Zhong Xiang has a devil team. Send a telegram ordering Wang Dazhu to stop the devil's brigade and beat them up! Since the devils are so unsure of priorities, Gao Quan certainly doesn't mind teaching the devils a lesson. He is going to Zhongxiang to do something big, if there are too many devils left in Zhongxiang City, won't he be able to let go of his hands and feet when he gets things done?
The order was delivered, and the devil brigade that Zhong Xiang came out of was indeed stopped, but it was not all the troops of the 201 Brigade who stopped this gang of devils, and some of them were actually diverted by a regiment of the 500 Brigade. Originally, this is nothing, there are so many devils, who fights or not? The result is precisely that this regiment is fighting devils and almost making a big deal.
The five brigades of the 500 Army, plus so many directly subordinate troops, were distributed on the road between Jingshan and Zhongxiang waiting for an ambush by the devils. The Japanese troops came and went quite frequently between the two places, and it was normal for them to be ambushed by any of our troops on the road.
