Chapter 335: Playing Hide and Seek (I)
Two hours later, the call back from the division headquarters arrived, and Nie Dadong took a look, and his face suddenly became solemn. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It turned out that in the telegram, the division headquarters told the detachment that the Japanese army had received the news that their detachment was going to Taihang Mountain, and also sent a person named Moriki Kato to be responsible for directing the encirclement and suppression of the detachment, so that they must be careful.
Seeing that Nie Dadong's face had changed greatly, Ye Xiaowei immediately took the telegram and read it carefully, and asked Liu Tianshu to be called.
When Liu Tianshu heard that it was Moriki Kato coming, he couldn't help but think of his injury, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to meet this kid Moriki Kato, although he still doesn't know what Moriki Kato looks like, but he has an inexplicable yearning for fighting him.
Seeing Liu Tianshu's expression, Ye Xiaowei reminded: "Tianshu, our task is to go to Taihang Mountain smoothly, you also know that our small team, there are fourteen regiment-level cadres alone, and we can't make a mistake." ”
Liu Tianshu is a militant, but Ye Xiaowei and Nie Dadong are shouldering the heavy responsibility of bringing these regiment leaders to Taihang Mountain safely, and they don't dare to have a fever in their heads, so they don't care about 3721.
Hearing Instructor Ye's words, Liu Tianshu woke up from the desire to compete with Moriki Kato, looked at Ye Xiaowei embarrassedly and said, "Instructor Ye, don't worry, I promise not to come nonsense." ”
Since the situation has changed, Nie Dadong still summoned all the regimental-level cadres in the squad and reported that the devils were chasing and intercepting him.
It's just that he didn't expect that these cadres who went to Taihang Mountain were all cadres who had been killed on the battlefield, and they were very eager to compete with the enemy. No, as soon as I heard that the devil actually sent troops to hunt down the team, they all immediately geared up and prepared to have a good fight with the devil.
On the contrary, because Liu Tianshu was reminded by Ye Xiaowei, he was no longer fanatical at this time, and returned to his usual calmness.
When Sengerf first taught him about military affairs, he specifically mentioned that as a soldier, especially as a commander, impulse is the most harmful devil.
Nie Dadong saw Liu Tianshu thinking quietly there, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Comrade Liu Tianshu, tell everyone what you think." ”
Liu Tianshu personally went to the Pinghan Railway to reconnoitre, how to cross the Pinghan Railway, and even how to avoid the pursuit of devils, he should have the most right to speak.
Liu Tianshu saw that everyone's eyes were focused on him, and he was not polite at the moment, he stood up, glanced at everyone and said: "Everyone, I have some understanding of this Moriki Kato, last time he attacked my regimental headquarters with a well-equipped team, and that battle made my second regiment suffer a big loss, and I was also beaten by the little devil and stayed in the hospital for two months. To be honest, this Moriki Kato is definitely a difficult character, and his grasp of the fighter plane and the ferocity of his actions are like nothing I have ever seen. This time he came from Tianjin to deal with us, and we must be very careful. Today, Captain Xu and I went to the railway to reconnoitre, and the Liujia River section is indeed a good place to pass, but there, we also encountered the devil's lurking plainclothes. So, I think, the devil should also know that it is suitable for us to cross, and maybe he will set up a pocket there. In addition, according to the information sent by the local comrades, the plainclothes activities of devils are frequent, and the vigilance in the railway area has been significantly strengthened. I suggest that we leave here immediately and cross the Pinghan Railway at another location. ”
"Another location?" These regiment leaders were taken aback, you must know that Shenzhuang is only twenty miles away from the railway, and as long as they cross the Pinghan Railway, they can swim in the sea again.
"Yes, choose another location, and I don't think Shenzhuang is safe anymore, if we don't leave early, maybe the devil will smell the wind and catch up." Liu Tianshu said solemnly.
The devil's plainclothes are moving around, and if the news of the team's presence in Shenzhuang is learned by the devils, I am afraid that a large number of devils will surround them like mad dogs.
Nie Dadong listened and thought about it, and when he saw that Liu Tianshu was so sure, he couldn't help but look at him and asked, "Then tell me, where should we move to?" ”
"The most important thing about the squad action is that it is elusive and unpredictable. According to my analysis, the devils should focus their defense on the section south of Shijiazhuang, we can go north, and then unknowingly cross the Pinghan Railway from the north of Shijiazhuang. As soon as Liu Tianshu's words came out, it could be described as earth-shattering.
"Are you saying that we will go to the Jizhong base area first, and then try to move west?" Nie Dadong's eyes lit up. The rest of the comrades were digesting the impact of Liu Tianshu's sudden suggestion.
"Yes, anyway, there is still plenty of time for us above, and the comrades in Jizhong have experience in crossing the Pinghan Railway, and we can also get their help when we get there." Liu Tianshu said with a look in his eyes.
Nie Dadong and Ye Xiaowei glanced at each other, and then said categorically: "Okay, let's go to Jizhong first, Liu Tianshu, you immediately let the comrades prepare for departure, and I will go to Captain Xu to discuss the specific route." ”
"Okay, I'll get the job done." Liu Tianshu replied loudly.
From Nie Dadong's words, it can be heard that he seems to have given the command of the combat unit directly to Liu Tianshu.
Out of the courtyard, Liu Tianshu immediately called Company Commander Zhao and Su Xiaopeng of the Eighth Route Army, asked them to prepare for action immediately, and at the same time asked the soldiers to try to bring six days of dry food.
From Shenzhuang to the Jizhong base area, it is about 300 kilometers, and even if it is a forced march, I am afraid that it will take four days, and although we can get help from local comrades along the way, we still have to guard against accidents.
After Xu Qianhong heard that Nie Dadong had decided not to cross the railway from Liujiahe, but to turn around and go north, and go straight to the Jizhong base area, although he didn't understand it, he still introduced the situation to him very dutifully, and at the same time promised to send someone to escort them north.
Between the base areas in southern Hebei and central Hebei, there are also underground traffic officers who are responsible for transmitting information and welcoming passing cadres, and so on, since Captain Nie has made a decision, he, as a guerrilla leader, naturally has to fully cooperate.
As soon as it got dark, the team immediately left Shenzhuang, quietly left the village from the north of the village, and then rushed all the way north.
Liu Tianshu and Nie Dadong didn't know that just two hours after they left, more than 500 devils surrounded Shenzhuang, and then the devils rushed into Zhuangzi and gathered all the people on the empty dam at the entrance of the village.
When Moriki Kato heard that the troops who entered the village to search for it did not find the shadow of the Eighth Route Army detachment at all, he immediately became angry and began to ask the people to hand over the hidden Eighth Route Army.
Fortunately, when leaving Shenzhuang, after Liu Tianshu discussed with Nie Dadong, he asked Xu Qianhong to tell the villagers that they could tell the devil that the team had lived in the land temple in the village and had now left Shenzhuang, and it could be said that the troops left the village from what direction, but where the team would go next, they would not know if they wanted to.
It is no secret that the team has stayed in Shenzhuang, as for the people who help them, they have not shown it on the surface, besides, the Eighth Route Army entered the village to borrow the land temple to live temporarily, and they, as ordinary people, could not stop it.
Liu Tianshu didn't want the people of Shenzhuang to give the devil an excuse to kill the villagers in order to keep this unimportant secret.
Hearing Moriki Kato's fierce questioning, the old village chief trembled and said slightly about the Eighth Route Army squad's stay in Shenzhuang, and at the same time told the devil that the Eighth Route Army squad left Shenzhuang before the imperial army entered the village, and he didn't know where he was going.
Moriki Kato didn't expect that the old man in front of him was still very acquainted, and he didn't hide it from the imperial army, and at the same time, the devil who went to the Land Temple to search, from the traces found, also proved that the old village chief was not lying. He touched his chin and said a few words, and immediately led his troops from the direction of the detachment out of the village and began to follow the traces.
Unfortunately, after two hours of pursuit, the traces left by the detachment disappeared, and Moriki Kato had to order the large force to return to the stronghold, and at the same time send a search force to conduct a carpet search.
As for the plainclothes of the devils, they began to reconnoiter the surroundings.
The detachment left Shenzhuang for only two hours, that is, they left Shenzhuang less than 30 kilometers at most, so Moriki Kato immediately took Shenzhuang as the center and conducted reconnaissance within 30 kilometers of the surrounding area.
At two o'clock in the morning, in a small forest northeast of Shenzhuang, the plainclothes reconnaissance team of the devils was ambushed by the Eighth Route Army, and twelve plainclothes were killed on the spot.
Because the Eighth Route Army suddenly appeared out of hiding in the grass, and these Eighth Route Army moved extremely quickly, these plainclothes soldiers had no chance to shoot at all, and they were already dead in the countryside.
When Moriki Kato learned that a search team searching in the northeast direction had lost contact, he immediately ordered the surrounding troops to search in that direction, and finally found that the twelve-member search team had been killed on the spot with cold weapons in the grove.
After he arrived at the scene, he carefully examined the wounds and found that they were all killed by a knife, and he couldn't help but gasp.
However, he immediately judged in his heart that the search team had encountered Liu Tianshu's reconnaissance team.
Since this is the case, it shows that his previous judgment was correct, and the Eighth Route Army did flee from the northeast.
It seems that their destination should be to Jizhong.
Subsequently, another search team in this direction was attacked by the Eighth Route Army, but fortunately, this time there was a devil who saw that the situation was wrong, and after being seriously injured, he even managed not to squeak and pretend to be dead, and finally got alive.
Seeing Commander Moriki coming, he reported the attack in a weak voice, and said that he had seen countless Eight Roads pass by him and go to the northeast.
At this time, Moriki Kato no longer doubted the true purpose of the Eighth Route Army, and immediately commanded the Japanese army to chase to the northeast, and at the same time let the devils and puppet troops in the northeast strictly defend it. (To be continued.) )
