At the division headquarters, Political Commissar Luo immediately fell into nervous thought after reading the top-secret documents sent by the new 1st Brigade. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Judging from the explanation of the situation sent by Hong Feihu, there should be no problem with the authenticity of these documents, but according to the intelligence, the Qingdao side seems to be as calm as ever, is it really as Liu Tianshu speculated, Gao Nanqing did not report the loss of the documents to the Japanese in order to save his life.

If this is the case, is it possible to make a fuss about this Gao Nanqing.

Political Commissar Luo walked back and forth in the house, thinking for a long time, and finally found the Minister of Enemy Industry and talked to him in a low voice for half an hour......

Liu Tianshu returned to the regiment with Shi Qiang and Chen Jian, and immediately conducted a military inspection of the officers and men of the regiment, and then went to the reconnaissance brigade to inspect the training during this period.

Because the 1st and 2nd Battalions reinforced the Rongshan base area, the 2nd Regiment suffered heavy casualties and replenished many new recruits, so during this period of time, emphasis was placed on the tactical cooperation between the soldiers of the training squad and platoon, and as for the shooting training, it was also intensified.

It was only for live-fire training that the brigade headquarters transferred a batch of ammunition from the original stockpile, so that each recruit fired only 20 rounds of ammunition, which was even less than the number of ammunition fired by the original recruits.

A week after Liu Tianshu returned to the Second Regiment, the order from the brigade headquarters came down, allowing the Second Regiment to go to the Rongshan base area in concealment, and then rush to the territory of Changle.

Because according to the information sent by Qingdao, the devils will use the train to transport a batch of war materials in the direction of Jinan in a week, including uniforms and medicines urgently needed by the troops.

The people who knew about the long-distance attack mission carried out by the Second Regiment this time were limited to the political commissar and deputy regiment commander, that is, the staff officers in the regiment, and they did not know that the destination of the troops' departure this time was not Rongshan, but Changle.

When they arrived at the Rongshan base area, Han Fangping, the commander of the third regiment, took the commander of the third battalion, Ma Chaoyuan, and others to greet them early. Ma Chaoyuan's third battalion was originally the unit of the Fuyashan Independent Regiment, and this time he was ordered to be transferred to the third regiment and became the main battalion of the third regiment, which won Han Fangping's respect. This time, when he learned that the Second Regiment had been ordered to come to the Rongshan Base Area, he was naturally very excited when he was from his maiden family.

After Liu Tianshu and Han Fangping shook hands affectionately, Jin Zhenbiao and Hao Mengxuan also stepped forward to greet Han Fangping. The last time these two battalion commanders reinforced the Rongshan base area, they left a deep impression on Han Fangping and the people in the Rongshan base area, and those who knew each other naturally spoke to them cordially.

Hua Xiaohu, the commander of the third battalion, was the first time to go to the Rongshan base, and Liu Tianshu introduced him to him.

After Han Fangping asked people to take the second regiment down to rest, he accompanied Liu Tianshu, Liao Zhifeng and Yang Donghu to the headquarters of the third regiment.

After a few people sat down to talk, Liu Tianshu saw that there was no one else in the regiment headquarters, and only then did he introduce the tasks that the second regiment was about to carry out this time.

Knowing that the Second Regiment was just passing through the Rongshan Base this time, but the real target was Zhu Jiaao in Changle, he couldn't help but be taken aback: "Commander Liu, do you mean that the Second Regiment will march more than 200 kilometers to ambush the devil train in Changle?" ”

"Yes, but this task is currently only known to a few people in our house, Lao Han, you also know that after the main force arrived in Shandong, the supply of the troops suddenly became difficult, and it was about to be the end of the year, but many troops did not have winter clothes. You say, it's freezing on this day, how can the soldiers stand it? Originally, we also wanted to ambush the devil train in Fuchang County or Jinyang County, but the devils in these two places were so well defended that even if we successfully attacked the train, I am afraid we would not be able to take the supplies away. Therefore, with the consent of the brigade commander, it was decided to change the location of the ambush to Zhujiaao in Changle. You see, this is Zhujiaao, the railway is going to pass through this valley, as long as we stop the devil's train, quickly evacuate the battlefield within two hours, and enter the mountains in the north, even if the devil has great ability, it is impossible to catch up with us. Zhujiaao is very close to Qingdao, and Qingdao is a heavily defended city by devils, and they must not have imagined that we would attack there. Liu Tianshu said this, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "According to our intelligence, between Qingdao and Linan, there is only one squad of devils escorting the car, and there are only two squadrons of devils at Linan Station who are responsible for armed protection, and the ironclad train that comes to escort will also act together with the train at Linan Station." In other words, between Qingdao and Li Nan Station, it is the weakest route for the devil's defense. ”

After listening to Liu Tianshu's detailed introduction, Han Fangping realized that the brigade chose to ambush the train in Zhujiaao, which seemed to be risky, but in fact it was a deliberate decision.

"Commander Liu, what is the task of our three regiments?" In the order given to the Third Regiment, the brigade headquarters clearly instructed the Third Regiment to temporarily obey the command of Liu Tianshu, the commander of the Second Regiment.

"Commander Han, I think about it this way, your third regiment will stay in the base area for the time being, but you must secretly let the local comrades organize personnel to cooperate with us in transporting supplies, and at the same time, after our second regiment leaves here, you must act as if we are still here, so as not to let the enemy notice the actions of our second regiment. It is 200 kilometers away from Zhujiaao, and even if it is forced to march, it will take two days and two nights, and our second regiment will leave here this evening and rush to Zhujiaao to prepare for an ambush. The villagers who helped to transport supplies in the base area also responded at this position, and our transportation over there was handled by local comrades. Liu Tianshu pointed to the map and began to introduce the mission.

According to the plan, after the second regiment succeeded in the first blow, it immediately quickly transported supplies into the mountains with the help of Zhao Yaxuan's guerrillas and the villagers of his organization, and then quickly retreated westward.

The three regiments met at a distance of 100 miles from Zhujiaao.

Han Fangping looked at the map and deduced the entire operation in his mind, and after a while, he looked at Liu Tianshu and asked a little solemnly: "Commander Liu, this task is too arduous, is the strength of one of your regiments too weak?" ”

After all, the Second Regiment had to ambush the train and help carry supplies, and its total strength was only 1,000 people, so it was really difficult to complete such a large operation.

Liu Tianshu saw Han Fangping's worried eyes, thought for a while, and said, "Or, Commander Han, let your three battalions follow us together." ”

"Okay, let the three battalions follow you, and I'll arrange the rest." Han Fangping nodded.

Because the operation was top secret, in the evening, the soldiers of the 2nd Regiment and the 3rd Battalion of the 3rd Regiment were suddenly called up, and then immediately rushed to the east.

Fortunately, when the officers and men of the 2nd Regiment suddenly marched eastward with the regiment commander, they guessed that there must be an important task, and at this time they received an order to start overnight without the slightest delay.

The soldiers of the third regiment and the third battalion, knowing that they had to follow the old regiment commander to carry out the task, their enthusiasm was not ordinarily high, and they quickly completed the assembly.

On the evening of the third day, Liu Tianshu and Liao Zhifeng led the second regiment and the second battalion of the third regiment to finally come to the mountains and forests north of Zhujiaao to meet Zhao Yaxuan, who had been ordered to arrive.

"Captain Zhao, we meet again, and this time we have to work hard for you again." Seeing Zhao Yaxuan, Liu Tianshu said happily.

"It's all about fighting devils, what's not hard. Commander Liu, we have secretly organized more than 300 villagers in accordance with the instructions of our superiors, and at the same time monitored the surrounding devil strongholds. Zhao Yaxuan stroked the bangs on her forehead with her hand and looked at Liu Tianshu.

"Okay, Captain Zhao, let your people take the three regiments and three battalions to immediately block this area, all personnel are only allowed to enter and not leave, and the news is strictly sealed." Liu Tianshu nodded, and then gave an order.

So many Eighth Route Army suddenly appeared here, if the devil knew about it, then all plans would be in vain.

After arranging all this, Liu Tianshu immediately rushed to the temporary regiment headquarters and contacted the brigade headquarters through the radio.

Subsequently, the radio of the brigade headquarters came with the details of the devil's delivery of supplies this time.

This time, the devil transported materials to Jinan through the Jiaoji Railway, but the destination was actually Henan.

This batch of supplies was so large that the uniforms alone were enough to equip a wing, plus two wagons of weapons and ammunition, and the medicines and equipment needed for a division, a full six wagons.

Seeing the detailed list sent and the running time of the train, Liu Tianshu couldn't help frowning.

He didn't expect that the materials transported by the devils this time would be so generous. You must know that the number of a standard wing is 3,800 people, and there are more than 3,800 sets of clothing and bedding, and even if one person can transport five sets, it will need 800 people, plus two wagons of weapons, ammunition, and medicines, and about 2,000 people will be needed for transportation alone. However, Zhao Yaxuan only organized more than 300 villagers, and the maximum number of people that his troops could pull out for transportation was 500 people, and the shortage of manpower required for transportation alone was about 1,200 people.

Do you want to destroy the goods that can't be taken away?

Liu Tianshu looked at the telegram in his hand, but he was unwilling.

Thinking of this, he stared at the map and thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to ask the brigade commander for instructions, so that Han Fangping could take the main force of the three regiments and the villagers to move closer to Zhujiaao in advance, and strive to meet at a place thirty miles away from Zhujiaao.

Hong Feihu was also very moved after knowing the materials transported by the devils from the intelligence from the Qingdao underground party, but as a brigade commander, he didn't want to increase the pressure on Liu Tianshu, who was on the front line, and now he saw that Liu Tianshu suggested that the third regiment should go east in advance to respond, and after discussing with Jiang Jinyong, he immediately agreed to his suggestion.

You must know that with this batch of materials, the problem of the main force surviving the winter can be solved by more than half.

After contacting Han Fangping, Liu Tianshu immediately released the reconnaissance team in his hand and closely monitored the movements of the devils from Qingdao to Zhujiaao and the town of Linan in the west. At the same time, be prepared to blow up the railways along the line as soon as the attack begins.

The Devil's reinforcements are more likely to rely on the railway, as long as the railway is blown up and the Devil cannot take the train for reinforcements, even if it temporarily changes to a car or walks here, it will allow the Second Regiment to gain valuable time to retreat.
