Chapter 373: The Sixteenth Regiment
Liu Tianshu lay behind a small dirt bag, staring at the devil rushing over through the grass in front of him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the command of a devil officer wielding a box of kings, the seven devils ran towards the mountains and forests quickly, and at the same time raised their guns to shoot at Su Lan and Lao Ji who were running towards the mountains and forests.
It's just that after these devils seemed to find that there were only ******** people in front of them, they had the idea of capturing them alive, and the bullet fell around Su Lan and Lao Ji, but it didn't hit the two of them.
When the pursuing devil rushed to less than fifty meters away from Liu Tianshu, Liu Tianshu suddenly stood up from behind the small earthen bag, holding his own twenty rings in his right hand and the captured shell gun in his left hand, and suddenly hit the devil.
The power of twenty consecutive rounds is indeed not small, as he swung his muzzle lightly, the four devils who ran in front were hit by bullets ****, screaming and falling backwards, and the other two were hit by the bullets from Liu Tianshu's left hand, one devil was shot in the head and killed directly, and the other devil was shot in the shoulder, and fell to the ground screaming at once.
The leader of the devil squad who commanded the pursuit, out of the corner of his eye, saw a figure suddenly flash in front of him, and immediately screamed badly, and at the same time his body suddenly rushed forward, avoiding the bullets that shot at him. And the other devil was lucky to escape because he was at the end.
Hearing the sound of firecrackers, the face of the devil squad leader changed greatly, and when the bullets flew over his head, he hurriedly raised his head, and saw a figure shooting at the same time, rushing towards his location.
Seeing this, the devil squad leader gritted his teeth and raised the Wang Ba box in his hand, but unfortunately Liu Tianshu had already discovered the location of the devil squad leader, and at this time, he saw that his position was different, and his body immediately flew to one side, and at the same time, the bullet hit the position of the devil squad leader.
As soon as the leader of the devil squad fired a shot, he saw Liu Tianshu suddenly turn the muzzle of the gun, and in shock, he immediately fell backwards, and then crawled backwards with a rolling belt.
At this time, the soldier who was following him found that his companions had been knocked down one after another, and immediately raised his gun desperately to hit Liu Tianshu's position.
It's a pity that Liu Tianshu won't stop and shoot on the spot, while he forced the devil squad leader to retreat, his body rushed forward quickly, and the devil soldier fired two shots in a row and failed to hit, but Liu Tianshu raised his hand and shot him in the forehead, and died directly on the spot.
However, with the soldier's desperate resistance, the squad leader finally fled fifty meters backwards and ran backwards desperately.
Liu Tianshu saw that the leader of the devil squad had run out of the effective range of the shell gun, and immediately rushed two steps, and saw a ghost soldier struggling on the ground, so he immediately raised his hand and shot it, smashed the devil's head, and at the same time took the devil's 38 big cover.
It's just that when he turned to look at the devil team leader, he found that the devil team leader had run away along the path.
Seeing this, Liu Tianshu had to quickly collect the grenades on the killed devils, and at the same time took two 38 big covers and put them on his back, and the rest of the 38 big covers were smashed directly.
After all this, Liu Tianshu hurriedly ran towards the woods.
As soon as he ran into the woods, a group of Japanese puppet soldiers ran in the distance, and the captain of the ghost squad who escaped chased after him with dozens of Japanese soldiers and imperial allies.
Liu Tianshu ran into the woods and caught up with Lao Ji and Su Lan.
Lao Ji and Su Lan heard the fierce gunfire behind them, and they were worried about Liu Tianshu in their hearts, and when they saw Liu Tianshu coming, Su Lan hurriedly asked with concern: "Are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, let's go, the devil is coming." Liu Tianshu said, took off a 38 cover and handed it to Lao Ji, and then arranged two treacherous thunders behind him.
Fortunately, Lao Ji was familiar with the terrain in this area, and the three of them quickly walked towards the depths of the woods.
Running into the mountain forest less than eight hundred meters, he heard the explosion of a grenade behind him, Liu Tianshu smiled contemptuously, followed Lao Ji and Su Lan, and quickly ran to the southeast.
This mountain forest is not big, it belongs to the hilly landform, if he can't get rid of the pursuers as soon as possible, Liu Tianshu is worried that the surrounding devils will hear the news and form a siege against them.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Tianshu laid six trick mines in the forest, and then carried a gun and under the leadership of Lao Ji, he quickly walked out of the mountain forest from the other side, passed through a village, and ran along the reeds by the river for a while, and then ran into a cornfield.
After running for an hour, no gunshots could be heard behind him, and Lao Ji and the two of them quietly got into a small boat from the side of a river, and the boat swung into a reed.
With Lao Ji's whistle, two people who looked like ordinary people with weapons in their hands came out of the reed forest.
Seeing Lao Ji, the young man in front of him who still had childishness on his face shouted in surprise: "Lao Ji, are you back?" ”
"Shui Sheng, this is a comrade from above, who was ordered to go to the detachment headquarters, we were discovered by the devils, so we can only hide here with you." Lao Ji looked at the man named Shui Sheng and said.
"No problem, our captain is in front, let's go, I'll take you there." When the aquatic student heard Lao Ji say that when they crossed the highway, they were discovered by the devil, so he said nonchalantly.
When they followed Shui Sheng to meet the captain, Liu Tianshu and Su Lan learned from Lao Ji's mouth that Shui Sheng and the others were guerrillas active in this area, and the captain's name was Xiao Fulong, and their guerrillas used this wide reed swing as a base.
When he saw Captain Xiao, Liu Tianshu learned that his guerrillas numbered only about fifty people, and one-third of them were unarmed.
"Captain Xiao, this is Comrade Liu Tianshu, this is Comrade Su Lan, they were sent from the fourth detachment to the fifth detachment to work." Lao Ji looked at Xiao Fulong and introduced.
"Hello two, welcome to our guerrillas." Xiao Fulong stretched out his hand and shook Liu Tianshu warmly.
"Captain Xiao, there are many disturbances this time." Liu Tianshu said politely.
"They are all revolutionary comrades, what is there to disturb or not, are you hungry? Let's go, I'll take you to get something to eat. Xiao Fulong said boldly.
Following Xiao Fulong to the reed forest not far away, Liu Tianshu found that there were several shacks made of reeds, and more than a dozen guerrillas stayed there to rest.
Seeing Xiao Fulong bring a few black wowotou, Liu Tianshu and Su Lan already felt hungry, so they were not polite at the moment, and picked up wowotou and ate it in a big gulp.
In the next two days, because the devils were searching outside, Liu Tianshu and the three had to stay in the reed forest, but after Liu Tianshu gave Xiao Fulong the two captured 38 big covers, a shell gun and some bullets, Xiao Fulong was so happy that he almost couldn't close his mouth.
Three days later, Xiao Fulong got the news that the devil had stopped the search, and at the same time, the detachment sent a company of troops to respond.
He had to follow the instructions of his superiors to send Liu Tianshu and the three to the shore and hand them over to the New Fourth Army that came to greet them.
Under the escort of the New Fourth Army, which was ordered to come to meet them, four days later, Liu Tianshu and Su Lan came to Chenzhuang, where the fifth detachment was located.
Walking into Chenzhuang, Liu Tianshu saw that there were countless New Fourth Army troops entering and leaving the village, and when he passed by a small farmhouse courtyard, he also saw the sign of the Red Cross hanging there.
Liu Tianshu listened to Lao Ji's introduction and said that it was Vice Minister Qian of the Political Department of the Fifth Detachment who came to greet him, so he naturally greeted Vice Minister Qian respectfully.
"Comrade Liu Tianshu, when I learned that you were transferred to work in our detachment, Commander Luo Xian personally asked me to come to greet you, go, I will take you to the detachment headquarters." Vice Minister Qian had a warm smile on his face.
When leaving the fourth detachment and going to the fifth detachment, Liu Tianshu knew the situation of the fifth detachment. The fifth detachment was a newly formed detachment, with three regiments below, but the total strength was less than three thousand.
However, he knew that Commander Luo was a famous general during the Red Army, and he also participated in the Long March.
To be honest, he was very excited to work under Commander Luo.
The three of them entered the compound where the detachment was located, and the sentry standing outside the door naturally ran in to report.
Liu Tianshu and Su Lan had just walked a few steps when they saw a few people walking out of the door, and one of the strong men saw Liu Tianshu and strode up to greet them.
Vice Minister Qian hurriedly introduced: "This is our Commander Luo, Commander Luo, this is Comrade Liu Tianshu and Comrade Su Lan sent to our detachment by Yan'an. ”
As soon as Liu Tianshu heard that the person in front of him was Commander Luo, he immediately stood up and saluted, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Commander Luo, Liu Tianshu has been ordered to come to report, please instruct." ”
Commander Luo then returned a military salute, and then pulled Liu Tianshu and said, "I have long heard that Yan'an has sent us a tiger general, and the comrades are looking forward to you." ”
"The tiger general doesn't dare to be, but as long as Commander Luo gives an order, Liu Tianshu will guarantee to complete the task no matter how difficult it is." Liu Tianshu hurriedly said.
Subsequently, Commander Luo introduced Political Commissar Guo and Chief of Staff Zhao to Liu Tianshu, as for Minister Fang of the Political Department, he went to the Eighth Regiment because of something in the Eighth Regiment.
When everyone met, they naturally couldn't help but speak enthusiastically, especially Political Commissar Guo, who represented the fifth detachment and welcomed Liu Tianshu and Su Lan.
After staying at the detachment headquarters until the afternoon, Commander Luo and Political Commissar Guo briefed Liu Tianshu on the situation of the 16th Regiment, and then the next day, accompanied by Deputy Director Qian, they went to Sujiatang, thirty miles away from Chenzhuang.
The 16th Regiment of the Fifth Detachment of the New Fourth Army is stationed in Sujiatang for the time being.
Looking at the battalion and company-level cadres sitting in the room, Liu Tianshu suddenly felt a heavy burden on his shoulders.
After announcing the appointment of the organization just now, Deputy Director Qian demanded that all party members and cadres of the regiment strictly implement the orders of the detachment under the leadership of regiment commander Liu Tianshu, resolutely and thoroughly strike at the enemy, and develop and strengthen the revolutionary forces.
Guo Sizhong, political commissar of the 16th Regiment, stood up and expressed his position, saying that he would work with Commander Liu Tianshu to build the 16th Regiment into a steel unit and strive to become the main force of the detachment as soon as possible.
After sending Deputy Director Qian away, Liu Tianshu and Political Commissar Guo returned to the regiment headquarters.
Guo Sizhong put a glass of water in front of Liu Tianshu, and said with a heavy expression: "Commander Liu, you also saw the situation of our regiment just now, the whole regiment is less than 600 people, it is said that there are three battalions, but in fact, each battalion only has two companies. The serious shortage of troops was secondary, our regiment had less than 300 long and short guns, and more than half of the soldiers could only use broadswords and spears. What's even more serious is that as soon as our 16th Regiment was established, it suffered a big loss at the hands of the devils......" (To be continued. )
