Chapter 407 Fighting the Horse Family Again (I)

"Hehe, battalion commander, why do you always think about tasks? I don't think it's the soldiers who are itching, it's your own heart, right? Seeing Tong Guijie's appearance, Liu Tianshu couldn't help laughing. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Political Commissar Guo Sizhong and Deputy Head Liu on the side laughed.

"Commander, you don't know, as soon as I heard that the group asked me to come to the meeting, the guys below shouted that I must take the task back, saying that everyone was holding back their training during this time, and they were looking forward to practicing hard with devils." Tong Guijie didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Liu Tianshu was still very happy when he saw this. He glanced at the political commissar Guo Sizhong, and asked the political commissar Guo Sizhong to convey the order of the detachment.

When he heard that the detachment ordered the 16th Regiment to send troops to the Zhangbaling area to take over the task of the 15th Regiment there, Tong Guijie looked at Political Commissar Guo and Liu Tianshu and said excitedly: "Regiment commander, political commissar, our first battalion went to Zhangbaling a few months ago to mobilize the masses, and we know the situation in that area very well, so this task will be handed over to our first battalion." We promise to get the job done. ”

At present, the base area is basically stable, but in order to avoid the attack of devils, the regiment will naturally not send all the main forces to Zhang Baling, and besides, Tong Guijie is still very confident in the combat effectiveness of his troops, and if he wants to complete the task of mobilizing the masses to carry out the anti-Japanese struggle in the area of Zhang Baling, his battalion can complete it.

Seeing that the commander of the first battalion grabbed the task unequivocally, the rest of the battalion commanders were a little unconvinced, but the second battalion was responsible for the defense of the west side of the base area, the third battalion was responsible for the defense of the south side, and although the fourth battalion was the closest to Zhang Baling, there was still a Majiaji stronghold in front.

Of course, the fourth battalion is the closest to the Zhangbaling area, and it stands to reason that if the troops are to be sent to advance into Zhangbaling, the fourth battalion should also be sent over.

"First battalion commander, our fourth battalion is the closest to Zhang Baling, and our battalion is the most suitable for this task." Kang Shuidong, the commander of the fourth battalion, looked at the commander of the first battalion and said.

Seeing that Tong Guijie and Kang Shuidong seemed to be quarrelling, Guo Sizhong stood up and said: "Don't argue between the first battalion commander and the fourth battalion commander, who to send to the Zhangbaling area, the regiment will naturally consider it, now everyone listens to what Commander Liu said." ”

Hearing what Guo Sizhong said about political commissar Guo Sizhong, Tong Guijie and Kang Shuidong immediately stopped talking.

Liu Tianshu's eyes swept over the two, and then at the other three battalion commanders, and then said: "Everyone, after the intensive training of each battalion of our regiment some time ago, I think the combat effectiveness should have been greatly improved. Don't worry, everyone, there is a battle. Although the devil has withdrawn from our base now, as long as there is a chance, I think the devil will definitely make a comeback. The detachment gave us instructions to develop in the direction of Zhang Baling in order to strengthen our ties with the Ludong team. In order to fulfill the order of the detachment, the regiment discussed it, and the top priority was to uproot the Majiaji stronghold and the Liuzhuang stronghold. Commander of the first battalion, the task of your battalion is to pull out the stronghold of Liuzhuang of the devils, the commander of the fourth battalion, the task of your battalion is to destroy the stronghold of Majiaji, the first company of the artillery battalion cooperates with the action of the first battalion, the second company and the third company cooperate with the action of the fourth battalion, and the original tasks of the second and third battalions remain unchanged, however, the second battalion immediately arranged personnel to carry out reconnaissance of the enemy situation on the front line of the Baisha stronghold. ”

In the past, the troops' ability to attack fortified positions was somewhat weak, but now the regiment has an artillery battalion and two 92 infantry guns, and the grenadiers' ability to fire ****** has been greatly improved.

Hearing that the regiment commander handed over the task of uprooting the stronghold of Liu Zhuang to himself, Tong Guijie, the commander of the first battalion, was a little dissatisfied, but he was still relatively happy.

After all, his first battalion, compared to the second and third battalions, finally grabbed the combat mission.

Of course, if you want to compare it with the fourth battalion, it is somewhat inferior.

You must know that the Ma Jiaji stronghold is a big stronghold, and the devil soldiers alone have a squadron, plus the puppet police of the Imperial Association Army, etc., compared to Liu Zhuang's enemy, it is more than twice as much.

After leaving the regiment headquarters, several battalion commanders immediately returned to their respective units and sent personnel to reconnoiter the enemy in front of them, especially Tong Guijie and Kang Shuidong.

The regiment commander said that they should come up with a battle plan and report it to the regiment headquarters within two days.

Since the fourth battalion was stationed in Sujiatang, the main target was the enemy of Majiaji, so to speak, they all knew what the enemy of Majiaji was doing.

It was the days when the 138th Wing swept the base area, because the fourth battalion had been guarding Sujiatang, and the devils in Linshan County had to guard against the Central Army and help protect the Yangtze River waterway, and at the same time, they also had to guard against the main force of the fifth detachment of the New Fourth Army in Ludong returning east. Naturally, the troops were insufficient for a while, and they did not dare to attack Sujiatang rashly.

Between Ma Jiaji and Su Jiatang, it was unexpectedly quiet.

Unfortunately, this tranquility was broken after the Spring Festival.

After Kang Shuidong sent the battle plan to Liu Tianshu for review, with Liu Tianshu's consent, he launched an attack on the enemy of Majiaji on the night of the third day.

Although Kang Shuidong's fourth battalion was formed the latest, Kang Shuidong was originally a staff officer of the regimental headquarters and had very rich combat experience; as early as a few months ago, he secretly sent people to infiltrate Majiaji, and at the same time, through the inner line, he also said goodbye to a company commander named Gao Weiheng of the Imperial Cooperative Army, and as soon as the New Fourth Army launched an attack on Majiaji, Gao Weiheng immediately let go of the eastern position of Majiaji that he was guarding, and let the New Fourth Army enter the town through his position.

At 10:20 p.m., the first company of the fourth battalion arrived at the east of Majiaji on time, and after seeing that the agreed time was up, Gu Tang, the commander of the first company of the fourth battalion, immediately signaled the long platoon next to him to send a signal.

Gu Tang looked at it and said action to the platoon commander, and the platoon commander immediately took a platoon of soldiers and ran forward quickly in battle formation, and in a blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Gao Weiheng's position.

"I've finally been looking forward to you." Looking at the soldiers of the New Fourth Army rushing over in the dark, Gao Weiheng said excitedly to the liaison officer Cheng Jiantong.

"Brother Gao, you are welcome to join the revolutionary team, and we will be a family from now on." Cheng Jiantong said to Gao Weiheng excitedly.

Subsequently, Cheng Jiantong introduced a platoon leader to Gao Weiheng, and after the two shook hands, Gao Weiheng withdrew from the position to the east with his brothers according to the predetermined plan.

After the platoon commander commanded the fighters to take over the position, he immediately gave a signal to the company commander behind.

After a while, the first company of the fourth battalion quickly passed through the position guarded by Gao Weiheng and quietly entered Majiaji.

When Kang Shuidong received the report that the first company had entered the town from Gao Weiheng's position, he was immediately overjoyed and immediately ordered the whole battalion to attack.

With Tang Shuidong's order, the second and third companies of the artillery battalion that cooperated with the action of the fourth battalion immediately bombarded the fortifications defended by the devils of Majiaji, and the two 92 infantry guns continued to roar towards the night ahead, and the shells flew out rapidly, falling on the hill west of Majiaji.

After the last time the turret was destroyed by the New Fourth Army, the devils stationed in Majiaji did not build turrets around Majiaji, but built deep fortifications on the hill outside the town, several hidden forts were connected by communication trenches, and mines were planted in front of the position.

The devil guarding the hill to the west was a little drowsy at that time, when he suddenly heard the sound of cannonballs whistling in the sky, and the faces of the two experienced veterans suddenly changed, shouted that it was not good, and immediately grabbed their guns and ran out.

The New Fourth Army put artillery into bombardment of the positions in the west, and there is no need to think about it to know that the New Fourth Army is preparing to capture Majiaji this time. And from the sound, it can be heard that this is the 92 infantry cannon firing, although the power of the 92 infantry gun is not as good as the 75 mountain artillery and field artillery, but if it is falling on the bunker, the bunker will still be blown up nine times out of ten.

As an Imperial soldier, it is natural to know the power of infantry artillery produced in the Empire.

The rest of the soldiers, seeing the veteran running out, immediately ran to their respective combat positions with their guns in their hands under the command of the commander.

The shells fired by the artillery battalion immediately exploded on the hill to the west, and countless fires rose up, turning the devil's position into a sea of fire.

Yoshino, the devil commander who was in charge of guarding Majiaji, received an urgent call from Nishiyama and immediately drew a squad from the town to reinforce him. At the same time, it ordered the remaining directions to strengthen vigilance to strictly prevent a sneak attack by the New Fourth Army.

Having fought many times with the New Fourth Army, Yoshino already knew that since the New Fourth Army was determined to attack his stronghold, it would naturally not attack only from the west.

However, the strength in his hands is limited, and there is less than a squad guarding the west hill, and after drawing out the squad to reinforce at this time, only one squad is ready in his hand, and as for the other three directions, except for a few Japanese troops, they are basically the Imperial Army.

After a while, he heard gunshots from the north, and Yoshino ordered the Imperial Army guarding the north to resist it, and at the same time called the county town of Rinsan to report the emergency.

At this moment, gunshots rang out from the east and south as well.

As soon as the first company of the fourth battalion passed through Gao Weiheng's position, it collided with the devil soldiers who were originally supervising the battle on Gao Weiheng's position.

Due to the limited number of troops, Yoshino only sent thirteen Japanese troops to take charge of the eastern defense line in peacetime, and the main task of these Japanese soldiers was to supervise the Imperial Allied Army.

Originally, the garrison of these Japanese troops was behind the position of the Imperial Association Army in the east, but this day happened to be the birthday of a Japanese team leader, and these Japanese soldiers all ran into the town to drink, and the remaining five devils were killed by Gao Weiheng.

No, hearing the sound of gunfire outside the town, these Japanese soldiers rushed back to their positions with a sense of alcohol, ready to urge the Imperial Allied Army to defend strictly.

Who knew that before these Japanese soldiers had even stepped into the position, they collided with several soldiers whose clothes were obviously not the Imperial Army.

The Japanese soldiers who were walking in front saw a string of figures coming down, thinking that the Imperial Allied Army had abandoned the battle and fled, and immediately shouted angrily: "Stop, what are you doing?" Go back quickly and hold your ground. ”

Who knew that before his words fell, what answered him was a rain of bullets, and five of the eight Japanese soldiers were knocked down in a blink of an eye, and the remaining three were not quick to react and lay on the ground, and they would also be killed on the spot. (To be continued.) )
