Chapter 591: I Want Some Machines
The observers in the trees were a little nervous. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThere are a lot of Japanese soldiers this time, in case they get under the canopy and study the big tree carefully, they will find their hiding place.
At this time, gunshots rang out at the same time in two places on the north and south sides of the big banyan tree. There were about twenty people in both places, and there were not many guns, so the Japanese troops immediately divided into two squads and attacked these two places.
The attacking Japanese squad soon arrived at the ambush site, and the person who fired the shot was gone.
Soon, two squads were taken out.
The Japanese brigade seemed to realize that the big banyan tree seemed to be a trap and wanted to retreat. At this time, it was already late, and the gunshots rang out again from the north, south, east and west, and there were people in ambush even under the big trees.
Japanese troops fired in all directions. Shooting is a bit blind, because you can only roughly judge the opponent's position, and you can't aim accurately.
In this way, more than a thousand devils were grinded to death little by little, and there were fewer and fewer people.
On the west side of this place is a big mountain, the sun sets early, and in the deep twilight, the remaining devils find that their commanders have been shot, and they are desperate. Some committed suicide with grenades, while others rushed into the bushes with guns and were killed.
Observers went from apprehension to appreciation of their combat process. The British officer was conflicted. If you kill yourself, I'm afraid that your performance will not be as good as the Japanese army.
This time the battle lasted roughly four hours, and the reinforcements of more than 1,000 Japanese troops were all killed, and only two partisans were wounded, one of them was hit by bullets and the other by bayonets.
This time, most of the devils were shot, because it took a lot of time to set up the mechanism.
The most surprising thing is the record of the guards on the path. The four of them wanted to participate in the battle, but they were not worried about the safety of the trail, and the trail saw that the British American observers were guarded, so he let them out.
Unexpectedly, these four people are not very well hidden in the jungle, but they kill the most. Each of them killed more than fifteen, and Liu Baijie was the most powerful, with twenty-two Japanese soldiers killed and wounded under him.
These four men were in ambush near the big banyan tree, so the officers watching the battle saw how they killed the enemy several times. The most impressive thing is that a guard hides at the root of a big tree, and when a Japanese soldier jumps over the root, he stabs him underneath.
Although Xiao Lu himself was holding a gun, he did not fire a single shot.
This made the local fighters have to admire because he used his newly learned skills instead of guns.
Li Wei wanted to enter the town after the war, but was stopped by a small road. The whole team took the captured Japanese weapons and immediately retreated.
The bodies of more than 1,400 Japanese devils were stripped naked and neatly laid out there. The ears were all cut off. The local Japanese army was all killed, and it was only a few days before someone came to collect the body. Both the Burmese and the Japanese were terrified: these resistance forces were simply devils.
November 12, 1942. India, Assam.
Stilwell happily paid for 7,000 rifles and bullets. The officers and soldiers of the various Allied units saw a large number of ears, and they were all frightened. There are more than 20,000 people in a full-strength division of the US military, and it is still very easy to come up with an extra division of equipment and take out more than half of it.
The U.S. Army, the British Army, and the Indian Army further restrained their contempt for the Chinese army, and even revered the troops of the small road. The Allied commanders were not afraid of these soldiers who harvested their ears, but of Xiaolu and others. These people build troops, forces that attract indigenous peoples. These people are almost omnipotent.
After consultation with the commander of the theater, Li Wei's coalition army was given the name of an independent division. Originally, Chongqing didn't want to give this name at all, but these people themselves are cannon fodder, and Stilwell's tone is firm, so Chongqing will not insist.
After this partial victory, the morale of the Allied forces in India was high, and Stilwell devised a battle plan to start in February and start in April and start a jungle battle before the rainy season arrived in April. Jungle warfare imitates the guerrillas, and trains for a month, and the instructors are people from the British Jungle Warfare School.
For the sake of jungle warfare, the Americans quickly mobilized some equipment and equipment suitable for jungle warfare from China. When all the Allied forces are available, they will launch an operation behind enemy lines in Burma.
The effect of the battle was that both sides won and lost, and although the results were not as good as those of the guerrillas, they dragged the Japanese army into a quagmire.
Because the local people of the guerrillas are not Burmese, they have always hated the Burmese, and they are not at all merciless when they get rid of the Burmese spies who collude with the Japanese army. The Japanese army, lacking the support of the natives, began to suffer.
After that, the Independent Division engaged in guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines, and in a year Stilwell had 50,000 guns fired.
Later, Stilwell discussed: "Commander Li, can you give you some other baggage, such as oil, heavy machine guns, and cannons. The rifle was somewhat deficient. ”
Li Wei said: "I want some machines to make cannon machine gun rifle parts, can you give them to me?" ”
The trail is about to go.
Before leaving, Li Wei and Xiaolu had a few long talks.
Xiaolu asked him to accept the military cadres of the 115th Division who were coming soon. Li Wei didn't understand this, and asked Xiaolu to tell him in detail.
Xiaolu told him about the 115th Division.
After Division Commander Lin was injured and went to the Soviet Union to recuperate, the 115th Division continued to fight on the mountainous battlefield, but some cadres and fighters gradually disappeared from the Shanxi battlefield.
Little by little, they were transferred to the Great Southwest. The military cadres of the Great Southwest are ostensibly the people of the Northeast Army and the Northwest Army, but in essence, they are indeed very numerous, but we have another hand, that is, recently, we will transfer a large number of cadres and fighters of the 115th Division to the southwest.
These military cadres should be dispersed and go deep into various regions to train guerrilla units and troops and carry out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines. They.
Li Wei knew that these military cadres were going south. However, in the past year or two, these people were mainly in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guizhou provinces under the leadership of the Southwest Bureau in Chongqing, and Li Wei has recently focused his work on Burma, so should the military cadres of the Eighth Route Army also be in Burma?
Xiaolu's answer was yes. In the future, Master Lin will also come to Yunnan and Myanmar. Because the southwest was Lao Chiang's last base, it was not suitable for Division Commander Lin to carry out military activities in a big way, and the troops should develop in a low-key manner.
In the future, Division Commander Lin will become the military chief of the entire Great Southwest. The operational scope of the Great Southwest should cover northern Burma, southern Tibet, Yunnan, northern Vietnam, and so on. It's a far-thought-out layout.
Li Wei thought carefully and knew that the bureau of the Great Southwest had become bigger. What he used to think about was to gradually occupy northern Burma, stabilize in northern Burma, and then develop westward. The new layout will greatly accelerate this process, especially in southern Tibet.
Xiaolu said: "Got it, right?" ”
Li Wei said: "I see." This must have been worked out by you and the chairman. With this plan, the plan you told us is greatly accelerated. I had planned to expand my tentacles into southern Tibet in four to five years. With this plan, it will be possible to occupy southern Tibet next year. ”
Xiaolu said: "If you can't do it next year, you must be able to do it the year after tomorrow." It's not optimistic here, it's a place where Confucius can't go, and the people don't know Chinese or Chinese characters. The difficulty will be great. ”
Li Wei said: "The 115th Division is not easy enough. ”
Xiaolu: "Since your business has grown, you have contributed money, transportation, and underground organizations, it has been much easier for them to transfer. You will have to assist Master Lin well in the future. ”
Li Wei said: "Yes." Captain, where are you going next? ”
Xiaolu: "I'll go to Guangxi first, and then I'll go to Taiwan there, and then I'll go to Dalian." ”
Li Wei said: "Take the sea route? ”
Xiaolu: "Take a boat." ”
November 29, 1942. Xiaolu and his party left Myanmar and flew to Guangxi by plane.
Soon, Xiaolu's plane flew to an airfield near Qinzhou, Guangxi. This airfield was built by the company Fuxian. After it was built, it was basically unused. After the plane took them here, they left for Kunming, Chongqing.
The outside world has since lost the whereabouts of the trail. Later, he appeared in Dalian, and some people were tracking him, studying his movements, carefully studying this part of his itinerary, and did not know the essentials.
Over the years, Guangxi has been shrouded in the huge shadow of the Japanese army. The Japanese army in Vietnam amassed heavy troops, and in 1940 fought a war, and the Guangxi Theater of China lost its troops. Even at that time, Lao Chiang was accurately bombed by Japanese planes in Guilin.
At present, there are no Japanese troops in Qinzhou, but it is very close to Vietnam, and the sea is also threatened by Japanese warships. Xiaolu regarded this place as an enemy-occupied area and asked Fuxian Company to open up a base here.
Today, the base areas have blossomed in various parts of Guangxi, and their situation is second only to Yunnan. Zhou Gong transferred cadres from Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Jiangxi and other places and sent them to Guangxi. According to Xiaolu's suggestion, Guangxi's task is to educate the people by mobilizing anti-Japanese forces, not to pursue temporary combat results, but to make long-term plans. For this reason, most of the cadres who come to Guangxi are student cadres, and there are fewer military cadres.
The people in various base areas in Guangxi have tasted the sweetness, the quality of life has improved, and they have begun to identify with Fuxian Company.
Qinzhou Fuxian Company took Xiaolu and the others to the base, a farm, and then transported them to the beach by boat.
One night, the group went to the beach. The man who led the way turned on the lights several times, and a small boat rowed over, loaded the dozen or so people, and sailed out to sea.
Liu Baijie didn't know what boat he was going to take, and if the commander-in-chief didn't say it, he wouldn't ask. However, he guessed that he should take a warship to Taiwan. Didn't Dalian capture a couple of Japanese ships.
The boat walked for a while, but there was no big warship on the sea, but it saw a big black creature on the water not far away, like the back of a big fish, with high fins exposed on the water.
The boat rowed to this big guy.
Liu Baijie was still wondering, only to see a light on the big guy, flashing a few times, and then his own boat was also lit up and flashing a few times. Needless to say, it's a code.
Liu Baijie thought to himself: "Just take this boat? What is this? ”
glanced at the commander-in-chief, but saw that the commander-in-chief was already excited, and said, "My number three." See you again. ”
Liu Baijie asked, "What kind of ship is this?" Shall we sit on this? ”
Xiao Lu smiled: "This is a secret weapon. Go up and you'll know. "For the vast majority of fighters of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance, even low-ranking officers, what is a submarine? I don't know.
