Chapter 455: There are ambushes in the village
It was night, in the mountains and forests five miles south of the small village. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Tang Weihua and Jia Chaodong saw the first battalion commander Gao Weiheng and instructor Han Cheng coming over, and hurriedly greeted them.
"Old Tang, old Jia, what's the situation?" As soon as he saw the commander of the third battalion and the instructor of the third battalion, Gao Weiheng asked anxiously.
Since joining the New Fourth Army, Gao Weiheng knows that in the Seventh Detachment, if he wants to be reused and speak hard, he has to speak with his military exploits. Originally, he came from the puppet army anyway, and he hoped to win the respect of his comrades by fighting.
The night before yesterday, the regiment arranged for his battalion to attack Jiangqiao Town, and the battle went very smoothly, for which he was praised by the detachment commander.
"Hehe, Lao Gao, this time will definitely make you have a good time, come, let me introduce the situation." Tang Weihua saw that Gao Weiheng was in a hurry to fight, and couldn't help but say with a smile.
After listening to Tang Weihua's introduction, he learned that the devils and the puppet army were close to 1,000 people, and he couldn't help asking: "Old Tang, how are you going to fight this battle?" ”
"Lao Gao, I have an idea, what do you think?" Tang Weihua smiled and said to Gao Weiheng, "The devil and the puppet army are now in the small mountain village in the north, according to the reconnaissance situation, the commanding heights outside the village are guarded by the devils, there are about 300 people, in addition, there are more than 300 puppet troops to cooperate outside the village, in this way, your first battalion is responsible for the east and north, and our third battalion is responsible for the west and south, and they will attack at the same time at 11 o'clock in the evening. ”
Knowing that Tang Weihua had actually laid an ambush in the village in advance, Gao Weiheng couldn't help but be amazed.
Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he did not pay much attention to the Red Army guerrillas operating in the south, believing that these people were all born with mud legs, and when it came to fighting, they should be far worse than himself. Who knew that after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he followed the commander to take refuge with the Japanese, and when the New Fourth Army attacked Majiaji, if he didn't want to work for the Japanese, he contacted the New Fourth Army in advance and decided to revolt in battle, maybe his life would have been handed over to Majiaji.
After joining the New Fourth Army, he partnered with Qin Yonghe, and only then did he see the ability of these military cadres of the New Fourth Army, especially the Japanese devils who swept the base areas were beaten to the ground by the detachment leader, which made him even more admired.
At this time, seeing that Tang Weihua would foresee that the devil would stay in a small village and set up an ambush in the village, this judgment of the battle trend alone made him amazed.
"Old Tang, you have arranged an ambush in advance, and when the time comes, we will cooperate inside and out, enough for the devil to drink a pot, in this way, I will arrange it immediately, and I will definitely launch an attack on time to see who rushes into the village first." Gao Weiheng said with great interest.
The 1st and 3rd Battalions immediately followed up with pre-battle preparations, and at this time, the Japanese captains who were staying in the small village had a sense of doom.
Although there was an unusual calm around him now, there was often a storm in the calm, and he did not believe that the New Fourth Army would give up the best opportunity to attack him.
What he can do now is to try to prepare for the defense as much as possible in order to meet the ferocious attack of the New Fourth Army.
Before dark, he had organized the soldiers who could fight into four squads, which were sent to the commanding heights on all sides of the village to defend, and at the same time arranged the puppet army on the side of the Japanese fortifications, and at the same time organized the baggage soldiers into two squads to be responsible for the defense of the village, and his temporary headquarters was defended by a small team of Japanese soldiers.
Pity those wounded soldiers, they can only be placed in the courtyard of the command post compound, the medical soldiers have exhausted all the medicines of the brigade, but still have not been able to bandage all the wounded soldiers, some of the wounded soldiers who are bleeding too much and are too badly injured, have gone to see the dear Amaterasu God in a groan of pain.
The captain of the Japanese army did not want to go to the front yard at this time, he could not bear to see those wounded soldiers in pain.
Time passed little by little, at 11 o'clock in the evening, the attack of the first and third battalions of the New Fourth Army began at the same time, the 60 mortars and grenadiers in the battalion suddenly roared, and the shells flew straight towards the positions of the devils and puppet troops on the periphery of the village.
Hearing the sound of killing approaching, the Japanese troops guarding the high place kept firing flares, and at the same time, the light and heavy machine guns continued to strafe outside, and the grenadiers arranged in the high places also began to bombard the outside.
It's a pity that the mortarmen and grenadiers of the first and third battalions are more handy in the use of mortars and grenadiers than the devils, and after they fired a rapid shot, they immediately quietly advanced forward, and when the devils' grenadiers launched a counterattack from a high place, they had already left their original firing positions, and the devils' retaliatory artillery fire only blew up clouds of gunpowder behind them.
The position of the grenadier arranged by the devil in the high place was exposed, and it was immediately hit by the devastating blow of the artillery fire of the New Fourth Army, and countless shells flew towards the high place, knocking out the few grenadiers left by the devil in a blink of an eye, and at the same time knocking out a lot of machine gun fire arranged in the high place.
The devil's suppressive firepower weakened, and the New Fourth Army immediately took the opportunity to advance forward, and those puppet troops guarding the flank, seeing that the artillery fire of the New Fourth Army was so fierce, as long as their firepower was exposed, they immediately attracted a rain of bullets, and after dozens of dead and wounded people, the rest of the puppet army retreated in a panic under the signal of the commander.
Losing the cover of the flanks, the Japanese troops guarding the high ground immediately fell into a predicament, under the heroic attack of the first and third battalions, the defensive positions of the devils outside the village were quickly torn apart, and then, the defensive positions in the south and north were lost one after another, and the Japanese troops in the east and west saw that the situation was not right, so they had to abandon their positions and retreat to the village.
The captain of the Japanese army heard the fierce sound of gunfire outside the village, his face was so heavy that he seemed to be able to drip water, and he sat motionless in the room, with a handful of shiny ribs on his crossed legs.
The temporary headquarters of the Japanese army was set up in the compound of the Long family in a small village, and the Long family was a well-known and wealthy family in this area, and also had its own industry in Ningyuan County, and this house was naturally the largest and most beautiful in the small village.
It's just that no one thought that in a utility room in the backyard, there was a hidden underground dark room.
Company Commander Zhang and more than 50 soldiers stayed quietly in the dark room, and these soldiers quietly entered the village and arrived at the Long family compound at noon during the day. The one they brought into the dark room was Long Yanchun, the eldest lady of the Long family.
At this time, Long Yanchun, the eldest lady of the Long family, was sitting opposite Company Commander Zhang.
Through the vent of the dark room, Company Commander Zhang heard the fierce gunfire outside the village, took a deep breath, and said to the soldier who was looking at him with excited and expectant eyes: "Check the ammunition and prepare for action." ”
"I'm going to fight devils with you." Long Yanchun's face was flushed with excitement, and she looked at Lian Chang Zhang and said.
"No, the head of the regiment has given an order, you must ensure your safety, you just stay here, stone, big knife, you two stay, responsible for protecting Miss Long, if she is missing a hair, I will ask you two." Zhang Lian said without looking back.
Just kidding, the head of the regiment made it clear that Miss Long Yanchun's safety must be absolutely guaranteed, and if there is a hair missing, the head of the regiment will have to settle accounts with himself.
When Shi and Dadao heard Company Commander Zhang's words, they immediately glanced at Long Yanchun in frustration and sat there with their heads down.
The rest of the fighters looked at the stones and broadswords with some sympathy, and at the same time began to check the weapons and ammunition.
The reconnaissance company led by Company Commander Zhang can be described as fully armed, each equipped with a short gun and a long gun, not to mention four Japanese-style melon grenades, that is, crooked machine guns, and also brought two, but unfortunately they couldn't bring grenadiers.
After seeing that everyone was ready, Company Commander Zhang made a gesture, and a tall soldier immediately thrust the dagger in his hand into the wooden board on his head, and then slowly moved to the side.
The exit is under a large vat filled with sweet potatoes, but if the devil unintentionally moves the vat, he will not be able to find the hole underneath, because there is a plank on top of the plank, and there are bricks on the board that are exactly the same as the ground, and if it is opened from below, the plank below must be removed before the top plank can be removed, and if it is opened from above, the two bricks next to it must be removed before the hole can be opened.
The warrior took off the plank, put his ear to it, listened carefully, and after making sure that there was nothing unusual, he removed the plank from it, and together with another warrior, struggled to move the vat away, and then quickly drilled out of the hole.
The two warriors came out of the cave and immediately rushed to the door, their short guns in their hands, and watched out warily.
Outside the utility room, although there was also a tense atmosphere, there was no devil to be found.
After a while, Company Commander Zhang and others drilled out of the hole, to see that the devil didn't notice, Company Commander Zhang whispered a word of action, and let the soldiers open the door, and then the soldiers divided into three ways and began to attack rapidly.
At this time, the fighting outside the whole village was extremely fierce, and the sound of gunfire and explosions was still approaching the village, and the Japanese captain had no choice but to transfer some of the remaining soldiers in his hands to go up again.
Even the lightly wounded Japanese soldiers in the front yard who were still able to fight were also sent to defend outside the village at this time.
Company Commander Zhang and the others got out of the house, more than a dozen soldiers quickly rushed to the front yard, more than a dozen soldiers rushed to the location of the devil's radio station, and more than a dozen soldiers followed Company Commander Zhang to the command room of the Japanese captain.
They ran not far away, and they ran into a devil who came in a hurry, and the devil couldn't help but be stunned when he saw countless figures, and when he looked closely, he found that these people were dressed completely differently from the imperial army, and immediately shouted in horror to the New Fourth Army.
Seeing this, the soldier who met him head-on did not hesitate to raise his pistol and said a word of death at the same time as the gun rang out.
The devil was shot in the forehead and fell straight down on his back. (To be continued.) )
