Chapter 337: Crossing the railway smoothly

After receiving the order, the soldiers, except for those who were in charge of guarding, rushed to the cornfield, either with daggers or bayonets, or even with both hands to pull up the corn that was being filled, and bundled it into a ball neatly, ready to take it to the side of the deep ditch to fill the pit.

At this time, those regiment commanders also rushed over with the soldiers to get corn bales, Liu Tianshu and Nie Dadong watched from the side, and did not go over to participate, after all, they had more important things to do.

And Xu Qiangong's guerrillas, while feeling distressed, ran over to help.

Just when the soldiers cut down all the cornfields, a man about forty years old, under the leadership of Xu Qiangong, came over.

"Captain Liu, this is the owner of the cornfield." Xu Qiangong pointed to the people and said to Liu Tianshu.

When Liu Tianshu heard this, he shouted to the side: "Qianshi, you come here." ”

Hu Qianshi heard the shout and immediately trotted over.

"Take twenty oceans and give them to this uncle." Liu Tianshu immediately commanded.

When Hu Qianshi heard this, he immediately took out twenty oceans from his backpack and handed them to the people.

"This uncle, I'm really sorry, we are going to requisition your corn stalk to fill the ditch, this is to compensate you for your losses this year. You see, that's enough money. Liu Tianshu said sincerely.

He had asked Nie Dadong just now, this corn field that was cut down by them, the loss this year was up to fifteen oceans, but he knew that the farmers attached great importance to the crops, and if it was not a last resort, he would not let the soldiers cut the corn that was about to ripen.

When the people heard that the commander of the Eighth Route Army in front of them had lost so much, they hurriedly said: "This chief, my corn is not worth so much, ten oceans are enough, ten oceans are enough." ”

"Uncle, you just take it, it's more compensation for the ground being compressed, there will be a fight here soon, you go back quickly." Liu Tianshu looked at the time, it was almost four o'clock in the morning, although Su Xiaopeng and they hadn't rushed back yet, he couldn't wait any longer.

As soon as the people heard that the Eighth Route Army was about to cross the railway, they immediately took the money and left gratefully.

Liu Tianshu went to Yan'an via Taihang Mountain this time, and Liao Zhifeng asked Hu Qianshi to bring 300 oceans, saying that it was an emergency on the road. The money has not been spent.

Besides, a person like Liu Tianshu, who was born in a wealthy family, as long as he is rich, has always been generous, and he never wants his fellow villagers to suffer.

Seeing that everyone was ready, and when the devil's patrol left the area in front of him, Liu Tianshu made a gesture to Shi Qiang, Shi Qiang personally commanded the soldiers of the two squads of the guard platoon, quickly slid down the deep ditch from both sides, and then flew to the opposite side, the two soldiers quickly threw out the flying grab wrapped with hemp rope, hooked the railroad track on the other side, and the two figures quickly grabbed the rope and went up the avenue by the railway.

The fighters of the two guard squads moved skillfully, and in less than two minutes, they all reached the railway, and then quickly spread out to both sides, ready to block the attack, and the fighters in charge of the demolition quickly placed the cluster grenades under the railroad tracks in the distance.

At the same time as Liu Tianshu's guard squad moved, the two platoons of the Eighth Route Army escorted immediately carried the corn stalks to the edge of the deep ditch, and after putting down the corn stalks in their hands, the soldiers of the two squads quickly jumped down the deep ditch, dragged the corn stalks to the opposite side, and quickly gathered the corn stalks.

A hundred bundles of corn stalks were thrown into a deep ditch, and in the blink of an eye a passage was built.

At this time, the people who guarded the road began to warn the devils according to the signal that Xu Qiangong had agreed with them.

At the same time that these people sounded the alarm, the devils and the Imperial Association Army on both sides also discovered the strangeness of the railway, and as the gunshots rang out, dozens of devils and the Imperial Association Army rushed along the railway from both sides, and at the same time, the devils in the stronghold of the entire railway line also heard the wind.

Liu Tianshu saw that another platoon of soldiers rushed to the opposite side and established a blocking position with his two guard squads, and at the same time, a squad rushed across the railway and began to occupy the commanding heights on the opposite side of the railway, and immediately said to Nie Dadong and Ye Xiaowei who were standing beside him: "Captain, instructor, let's go, let's cross the railway." ”

Liu Tianshu and the three of them, escorted by the soldiers, quickly went down to the ditch along the passage filled by the corn stalk, and then ran to the opposite side with their guns.

At this time, the guard squad commanded by Shi Qiang had already exchanged fire with the devils who rushed to block it.

The soldier in charge of breaking the road saw the devil rushing forward, and the roar of the devil's ironclad patrol car was heard in the distance, and at the same time, the snowy lights swept in the night sky, and immediately pulled the fuse, and with the violent explosion, the railroad tracks on both sides of the blocking position were blown away.

Shi Qiang saw a team of devils rushing quickly, raised his gun to aim far away, and then shot steadily, and together with Shi Hu, he killed the two devils running in front, and the devils in the back saw that the Eighth Route Army was good at marksmanship, and they could still hit them at a distance of three hundred meters, so they immediately scattered in all directions, and swept the machine gun towards this side.

On the side of the railway, a few fighters came up with corn stalks, quickly piled up bunkers on the flat road, and lay on them to shoot at the enemy who was getting closer and closer.

It's a pity that the bunker made of corn stalks can't set up heavy machine guns at all, and the heavy machine gun of Company Commander Song was carried by the machine gun team to the hill opposite the railway, and began to sweep towards the avenue below.

As soon as the battle began, Moriki Kato received a report that a small detachment of the Eighth Route Army suddenly appeared in Liujiahe and was forcibly passing through the railway. At this time, he realized that he had fallen for Liu Tianshu, a cunning Chinese, again. After the detachment left Shenzhuang, it did not rush to the northeast at all, and what attracted it was only a small force sent by him.

And it was this small force, chasing and chasing, and it also lost its trace.

Thinking that the Eighth Route Army detachment was crossing the Pinghan Railway, Moriki Kato was mad in his heart, and urgently ordered the Japanese troops in the nearby stronghold to intercept them at all costs, and at the same time ordered the Japanese troops in Minjian County on the west side of the railway to quickly fortify and block the attack at Kuangjiashan on the west side of the Liujia River.

The devils in the stronghold near Liujiahe received an angry order from Moriki Kato, and immediately poured out of the nest and poured into the area of Liujiahe.

It's just that Liu Tianshu's method of crossing the road was unexpected, and he actually used corn stalks to fill the ditch to cross the road, and less than ten minutes after the battle started, Liu Tianshu and they all crossed the railway.

Liu Tianshu saw the troops blocking the railway fighting fiercely with the frantically rushing enemy, and was about to give the order for them to retreat, when suddenly Hu Qianshi pointed to the opposite side and shouted: "Regiment commander, you see, it's the Su platoon commander, and the Su platoon commander is coming." ”

Liu Tianshu turned his head to look, and saw a string of torches appear on the opposite side, quickly moving to this side, and saw that there was a fierce battle on this side, and a signal flare suddenly rose, which was the contact signal from Su Xiaopeng.

Liu Tianshu was excited in his heart, and he said to Nie Dadong: "Captain Nie, you go first, I will chase you when I pick them up, and we will meet in Hujiawan." ”

Hujiawan is in the northwest direction of the Liujia River, and as soon as the detachment crosses the railway, Liu Tianshu judged that Moriki Kato will definitely order the surrounding devils to surround it, and the Japanese army in Minjian County is very likely to block it in the area of Kuangjiashan.

Because if the detachment went straight to the west, it would definitely pass Kuangjiashan. In order to avoid the resistance of the devil's army, Liu Tianshu decided to take the Hujiawan detour to the west.

Hujiawan is on the edge of the Pinghan Railway, and as long as the troops pay attention to secrecy, Moriki Kato must not have imagined that he would go north along the west side of the Pinghan Line.

"Okay, you have to be safe." Nie Dadong knew that now was not the time to be polite, so he nodded immediately, and took those regiment commanders to run towards the mountains and forests in front of him under the protection of a platoon.

Liu Tianshu carried a gun, ignored Hu Qianshi's obstruction, and ran onto the road.

"Commander, why are you here?" Seeing that Liu Tianshu actually ran over, Shi Qiang said nervously.

"Qiangzi, what's the situation, Su Xiaopeng and they will cross the railway soon, we must block the devil." Liu Tianshu lay on the corn stalk, raised his pistol and fired two shots in succession, killing the two devil soldiers who were constantly firing.

"Three soldiers were killed here, four soldiers were wounded, and the situation over there is estimated to be similar." Shi Qiang said a little sadly.

"Send someone to send the wounded fighters to withdraw first. When Su Xiaopeng and the others crossed the railway, we immediately retreated. Liu Tianshu saw that the devil's attack was very fierce, so he commanded Shi Qiang.

Shi Qiang immediately ordered, and Company Commander Song immediately sent someone to send the wounded soldier away.

Su Xiaopeng and the others finally followed the passage and successfully crossed the railway.

After all, Su Xiaopeng was a cadre brought out by Shi Qiang himself, he crossed the railway with his soldiers, and immediately established a blocking position at the height of the west of the road.

Seeing Su Xiaopeng and Platoon Leader Zhao crossing the railway, Liu Tianshu raised his hand to shoot the bullet in the empty pistol, said Let's go, and while walking back, he took out a magazine and reloaded it.

The devils who attacked from both sides naturally had cars and the like, but unfortunately it was not only the devils who had grenadiers, Su Xiaopeng's guard platoon also brought two grenadiers, and in the confrontation between the two sides, the devil's four cars were hit and turned into a raging fire, and the devil's ironclad patrol car, because the railroad tracks were blown up by the soldiers of the guard platoon, could not be repaired for a while, so it had to stop.

In this way, the devil's offensive can only rely on infantry charges, and those Imperial Allied troops who cooperate with the action, although they keep firing, the speed of advance is very slow.

By the time the devil's army arrived, Liu Tianshu had already taken the guard platoon and the troops of Company Commander Song and withdrew into the mountains and forests under the cover of Su Xiaopeng and others.

After entering the mountains and forests, Liu Tianshu asked Shi Qiang to take the guard platoon to take charge of the break, and the rest of the people immediately ran towards Hujiawan.

The soldiers of the guard platoon, all masters of arranging tricks, immediately planted tricks in the woods behind them, and then drove away.

Angry and frustrated, the devil and the Imperial Allied Army chased into the mountains and forests in the commander's angry shouts, but they didn't expect the explosion of grenades and grenades to sound from time to time, and the devils and the Imperial Allied Army who ran in front were blown up and cried to their mothers, and the devils and the Imperial Allied Army in the back heard the explosion and screams in front, and they were suddenly horrified in their hearts, knowing the danger in the forest in front of them, and had to stop.

Hearing the sound of an explosion behind him, Shi Qiang smiled contemptuously, and together with Su Xiaopeng, he quickly rushed to Hujiawan with a platoon of guards.

His guard platoon is not only responsible for breaking the rear, but also clearing the footprints of the troops. (To be continued.) )
