Chapter 273: Blackfish Cave (Middle)
"What? Ma Yadong was killed by the Eighth Road, and the Eighth Road has surrounded the Black Fish Cave? ”
In the black fish cave, the thick torches illuminated the entire cave as if it were daylight, and Hao Fenglei, who was sitting on the top tiger skin chair, jumped up in surprise when he heard Zou Yefei's narration. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yes, the big boss, listen to the eight roads, the five masters not only robbed people and property, but also robbed the people's daughters, and as a result, they were met by the eight roads and executed by the eight roads. The Eighth Road also said that some of our people in Heiyudong had fornicated with the Japanese, and asked us to surrender immediately, otherwise we would be treated as traitors. The third master, Zou Yefei, looked a little panicked at this time.
There was a battle with Balu just now, and this battle swept away his self-confidence for many years. Since he joined the bandits, he has also lived a life of licking blood at the tip of a knife, and he has also killed people without blinking, and he thinks that he is also a ruthless character.
But after a firefight with the Eighth Route Army today, I realized that I was just a frog at the bottom of the well. He was in the north of the strange stone ditch, and he had found that the number of people on the opposite side of the Eighth Road was not as large as his side, but the Eighth Road had been pressing him to fight, especially there were many sharpshooters in the Eighth Road, and the marksmanship was accurate, so he broke out in a cold sweat when he thought about it.
He saw with his own eyes that several of his brothers only showed their bodies slightly, and they were immediately shot mercilessly by Balu.
But seeing his brothers being killed one by one in front of him, he was at a loss.
This terrifying feeling of being slaughtered by others was the first time he had experienced it.
"Traitor punishment? Collusion with the Japanese? Although I am a bandit, I have never betrayed my ancestors and become a traitor. This Eighth Route Army also deceived people too much, and if they want us to surrender, it depends on whether the guys in our hands agree or not. Second master, you immediately take people to guard the valley mouth, and I want to see how the Eighth Route Army rushed in. Hao Fenglei said hatefully.
"That's right, big boss, Balu is riding on our heads and, why do you say that we colluded with the Japanese? What evidence do they have? Our people in the Black Fish Cave are not scared, as long as we guard the valley mouth, I think the eight roads can fly in? Luo Tanglong, the fourth master, looked at Hao Fenglei and said angrily.
When the rest of the leaders heard what he said, they were also very dissatisfied with the eight roads coming to the door. However, they knew that it was not the best strategy to go out of the valley to find trouble with the eight roads, but as long as they held the valley mouth, the eight roads should have no way to take them.
The grain stored in the cave was enough for the brothers of the Black Fish Cave to eat for a year, and they didn't believe that Balu could stay at the mouth of the valley for a year.
Hu Jianshan, the second master, came out of the cave with more than 100 brothers, crossed the small lake in a boat, and then rushed to the mouth of the valley.
There were more than 50 bandits guarding the valley mouth, and the leader was Jiang Hongyong. Seeing the second boss coming with his brother carrying two heavy machine guns and a mortar, he immediately greeted him.
"Jiang Hongyong, what's going on in the Eighth Road?" Hu Jianshan looked at Jiang Hongyong and asked anxiously.
"Report to the second master, the eighth road arrived at the mouth of the valley, and immediately set up a machine gun on the opposite side, however, did not attack us, it seems that they are waiting for reinforcements." Jiang Hongyong, as the right-hand man of the Black Fish Cave, his eyesight is still good, and as soon as he looked at the posture of Su Xiaopeng and others, he guessed that he should be waiting for reinforcements.
However, Jiang Hongyong is still full of confidence in guarding the valley, you know, after the big boss decided to move his family to the Black Fish Cave, he immediately built a four-zhang walled wall at the mouth of the valley, which is connected to the cliffs on both sides, and all the trees within 50 meters outside the wall have been cut down, and even those dirt and stones have been completely removed.
At the same time, the firepower points on the walled wall covered all the open land outside the walled gate, and it was impossible for the Eighth Road to approach easily except for a forced charge.
Now the gate under the wall has been closed, and the back is covered with boulders, and it is easy to break through at all.
"Let's go up and have a look." Hu Jianshan nodded, walked to the wall with Jiang Hongyong and looked out, and sure enough, he saw the figure of the Eighth Route Army appearing in the mountains and forests opposite.
When Hu Jianshan saw Ba Lu Xuan in the mountains and forests outside the valley, he frowned and ordered the mortars to be lifted up the wall up to three meters wide, and the gunners to set up the guns, and then bombarded the woods.
Hearing the sound of cannonballs whistling in the air, Su Xiaopeng knew that the bandits were bombarding him with mortars, and shouted to hide, and the soldiers immediately looked for cover and hid.
As the shells fell, an explosion sounded in the mountains and forests outside the valley, and a tree with a thick bowl mouth was blown off by the waist and fell to the mountains and forests with a bang.
However, the cannonballs that Hu Jianshan let the bandits fire did not cause much damage to the soldiers of the reconnaissance brigade, except for one soldier's arm was hung off piece by piece, the rest of the soldiers were not harmed.
Shi Hu didn't expect that before he could attack, these bandits began to bombard with artillery. It's a pity that the bandits' artillery mounts are at a high place, and there is a wall to block them, so he can't see the bandits' gunners at all.
Su Xiaopeng saw that the bandits' artillery was very orderly, and he was secretly shocked in his heart, and immediately called the soldiers, set up the captured mortar on the side, and according to the general position of the mortar on the wall, quickly fired three shells in a row, and then quickly transferred.
He suspected that there were people among the bandits who were skilled in handling mortars, and in order to prevent retaliation from the other side, he had to be careful.
Hu Jianshan did not expect that his mortar had just fired a few shots, and was retaliated by the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army, but fortunately, his mortar was arranged behind the wall, and the Eighth Route Army only deduced the approximate location according to the trajectory, which allowed his mortar to survive.
However, in this way, many brothers on the wall were injured by shells that fell on the wall, and two of them were blown off the wall.
"The second master, the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army is too fierce, I'm afraid we are not opponents." The gunner Qi Changgen ran over, looked at him and said nervously.
Some time ago, Heiyudong contained a defeated army that was said to be the broken up of the national government, Qi Changgen and Tian Siyuan said that they were originally mortar operators in the army, but no, they were appointed as mortar instructors by Hao Fenglei.
It's just that Hao Fenglei was not very confident about this rout of less than ten people, and after he promised to contain them, he immediately scattered these rout soldiers and organized them into various squads under him.
And Qi Changgen and Tian Siyuan were left in the cave.
After Zou Yefei lost two mortars to the north of the strange stone ditch, there was only one mortar left in Heiyu Cave.
Now even Qi Changgen said that the artillery fire of the Eighth Road was fierce, which made Hu Jianshan's heart sink.
"It's okay, our wall is as high as four feet, even if Balu has wings, it is impossible to fly over, tell the brothers to aim the gun for me, as long as Balu dares to attack, immediately hit his mother."
Su Xiaopeng was overjoyed when he saw that the bandits' artillery fire was suppressed, but he was still not carried away by the victory, there were only two squads of about 20 people around him, and he still had self-knowledge if he wanted to attack the bandits with more than 200 people.
Fortunately, after two hours of confrontation between the two sides, Shi Qiang and Kuang Guosheng led their troops to arrive.
"Su Xiaopeng, what's the situation ahead?" As soon as he arrived at the valley mouth, Shi Qiang looked at Su Xiaopeng and asked.
The regimental commander had already sent two telegrams inquiring about the fighting situation of the reconnaissance brigade.
"Report to the captain, the bandits have been blocked by us in the valley, but they have built a strong wall at the mouth of the valley, and there is an open area of fifty meters in front of them, and our soldiers cannot approach it at all." Su Xiaopeng wiped the sweat on his forehead and said.
"Let's go, take me and Company Commander Kuang to have a look." Hearing Su Xiaopeng's words, Shi Qiang nodded.
The three of them arrived at the small hill opposite the valley mouth, Shi Qiang held a telescope to carefully observe the situation in the valley mouth, and found that this Hao Feng thunder was really extraordinary, he built a walled wall at the dangerous place of the valley mouth, the walled wall directly connected the cliffs on both sides, like a cliff, only leaving a wall about four meters wide in the middle. As for the stream that flows out of the valley, it flows out from under the wall.
Through visual inspection, it can be judged that the wall is at least three or four meters thick, and such a strong facility cannot be destroyed by a few mortars alone.
Coming back from the hill, Shi Qiang looked at Kuang Guosheng and said: "Company Commander Kuang, it seems that it is not possible to eliminate this gang of bandits and attack by force, in this way, your fourth company is responsible for blocking the front and putting on a strong attack posture, and our reconnaissance brigade wants to enter the valley from other places, and then meet the inside and outside, and take down the wall at the mouth of the valley." ”
"Okay, just do what Captain Shi says." Kuang Guosheng knew that if he wanted to say that the eaves were going to walk the wall, the reconnaissance team was definitely better than his own troops, and since Shi Qiang had already said so, he should have other ways.
After the two said the contact information, Shi Qiang took Su Xiaopeng and Shi Hu and immediately retreated.
At this time, the reconnaissance squadron led by Wang Dachun had successfully climbed to the high place on the east side of the Heiyudong Valley, and he held a telescope to observe there quietly for half an hour, carefully taking a closer look at the terrain in the entire valley, especially the location of the waterfall, he looked very carefully.
Through observation, he found that there were several bamboo rafts in the lake in the valley, which were supposed to be the transportation vehicles of bandits on the lake, and there were also some simple buildings by the lake, as for the black fish hole behind the waterfall, because of the waterfall, it was not clear to see.
However, according to his speculation, there should be no other way out of the valley in the Black Fish Cave, after all, the surrounding mountains are very large, and if a secret passage is to be dug out manually, it is not known when.
The only thing I was worried about was that there would be a dark river in the Blackfish Cave. Of course, this is not very likely.
Just as Wang Dachun was thinking about how to quietly go down to the valley, the communication soldier came to report, saying that the captain asked him to wait in place, and the captain was rushing over with Su Xiaopeng and them.
When there was still an hour before dark, Shi Qiang and the others came to the cliff and met Wang Dachun.
After listening to Wang Dachun's introduction, Shi Qiang carefully observed the situation in the valley again, and called Wang Dachun and Su Xiaopeng over.
"Da Chun, Xiao Peng, I observed just now, the bottom of the cliff in the east is far away from the bandits' houses, and it is not close to the waterfall, so it should be the weakest place for the bandits, so after dark, we will go down from there, and after going down to the valley, Wang Dachun will take your people to cooperate with Company Commander Kuang to capture the valley, and Su Xiaopeng will be responsible for blocking the bandits from the Black Fish Cave from rushing out. Lao Zhu, your people are responsible for eliminating the other bandits in the valley, everyone remember, this gang of bandits is extremely vicious, as long as they don't lay down their weapons, they will all be killed. ”
In the end, Shi Qiang's words revealed a thick murderous aura. (To be continued.) )
