Chapter 10 Take Gongcheng (Ask for Receipt, Ask for Recommendation)
As He Zhengdao led the remaining more than 100 Red Army, armed to the teeth, and went straight to the headquarters of the security regiment in Gongcheng, the officers and soldiers of the security regiment who blocked along the way were all defeated by the imposing Red Army. By the time He Zhengdao cleaned up the surrounding Gui army, there was already a group of Gui army defenders waiting in front of the headquarters of the security regiment.
Looking at the defenders hiding on the walls of the fortifications and headquarters, He Zhengdao clearly ordered the charge directly, which would bring unpredictable casualties to this already physically and mentally exhausted Red Army.
Thinking of the mortar that was brought by the people just now, He Zhengdao quickly said to those soldiers: "Bring the mortar, and a few more brothers will watch the **** cannon, and then I will use the mortar to blow up these dogs." I'll see how long they can be in it, shrinking turtles! ”
Hearing that He Zhengdao could operate mortars, most of these Red Army, who were mostly infantrymen, undoubtedly looked excited. Soon, the soldier carrying the mortar put the two mortars in front of He Zhengdao.
For this kind of mortar, which was common in the Red Army period, He Zhengdao, who had played with almost all kinds of weapons in his previous life, quickly assembled the parts that several soldiers put on the ground. Looking at the heavy machine gun position in front of him and the defenders on the wall of the headquarters in front of him, He Zhengdao adjusted the angle of the two mortars just by giving a thumbs up with his eyes.
Wait until He Zhengdao took out two shells from the gun box and said to the soldiers who followed him: "Wait a minute, you just need to follow my current operation and throw the shells into the barrel." ”
Watching He Zhengdao aim the tail of the cannonball at the barrel, the cannonball quickly slid into the barrel as soon as he released it with both hands, and within a few seconds, the mortar made a 'tom' sound. A smoke-emitting mortar accurately hit a heavy machine-gun position not far ahead.
This adjustment of the parameters, only the work of throwing the shells into the barrel, along with the two grenadiers who were sent out. Loading one after another, in the headquarters of the security regiment in front of him, which closed the door, there was a sudden sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
Seeing that a heavy machine gun position was eliminated, He Zhengdao moved one of the mortars slightly. Then he asked the grenadiers, who seemed to be very excited, to stuff shells into the barrels.
As this mortar shell accurately hit another heavy machine gun position, He Zhengdao waved his hand and said: "Brothers, rush, kill the white dog!" ”
Without the threat of heavy machine gun positions, the defenders in the headquarters were bombed by mortar guns again, and He Zhengdao, who acted as the vanguard of the team, held a light machine gun and shot the Gui soldiers who dared to show their heads on the wall and fell to death. When he rushed to the front of the command department, he was worried that there would be an attack in the courtyard inside, so He Zhengdao quickly asked people to bandage a few grenades.
Holding it in his hand and feeling the weight, he turned back to the soldier behind him and said: "Wait a minute, I will throw the grenade in, as soon as the grenade explodes, a few of you with light machine guns will rush in as the first team, don't pay attention to what the people inside say, just rush into the headquarters for me, catch their commander, then tonight's operation will be more than half a victory." Did you hear it all? ”
Several machine gunners who had been completely shocked by He Zhengdao's marksmanship immediately shouted: "It's clear! ”
Seeing that these machine gunners understood, He Zhengdao took two steps back and came to the gate of the courtyard, took a deep breath and pulled the grenade's pull ring off. After a two-second delay in his hand, he threw it into the yard with all his might. Soon He Zhengdao and the others who were outside heard the people inside shouting: "Flash flash, there are grenades!" ”
As soon as these people's words fell, they heard a few 'boom' sounds, and He Zhengdao suddenly kicked open the door of the jacking. As the big iron door let out a wail and was kicked down, the machine gunner, who had been preparing for a long time, pulled the light machine gun in his hand and rushed inside, regardless of whether there was anyone in front of him.
Following these machine gunners, the Red Army soldiers who also rushed into the headquarters at a fast pace, looked at the iron-clad gate, a footprint that was almost half an inch indented, and sighed that He Zhengdao, who led the team, was worthy of being a martial arts master who came out of the chief's side.
In the face of these Red Army, who rushed in and killed without asking anything, the Gui Army hiding inside. This time, without shouting from the Red Army, many officers and soldiers raised their guns above their heads and shouted: "We surrender, the Red Army will give preferential treatment to the prisoners!" ”
Depend on! These guys knew more about the Red Army's capture policy than He Zhengdao and others.
For these officers and soldiers who surrendered with guns, He Zhengdao asked Wang Tianlin, who was following him, to quickly lead people to confiscate their guns and bullets, and escort them up for disposal after the war, while he himself led people to rush into the headquarters of the security regiment located in the courtyard.
The two city defense officers who were still preparing to resist were sieveed, and the deputy head of the security regiment who stayed here handed over his pistols very well. and ordered the remaining officers to surrender their guns to He Zhengdao's murderous Red Army.
For He Zhengdao to shout and order the security regiment troops in the city to lay down their arms and surrender, the deputy head of the regiment, who did not want to die, also expressed his full cooperation. I just hope that in the end, he can get the forgiveness of He Zhengdao, the commander of the Red Army. In this regard, the answer given by He Zhengdao is that it depends on the effect of his persuasion of the troops in the city.
I thought that there would be a few diehards in the Gui army in the city, but after the deputy regiment commander was captured and pushed in front of the Gui army, who was still ready to resist. The officers and soldiers of this group of security regiments obediently laid down their arms and surrendered speechlessly. When the Gui soldiers in the city arrived, except for those who were killed or fled and hiding, almost all of them who could be caught were caught in the open space of the security regiment and taken into custody.
Let Wang Tianlin send two squads, set up four heavy machine guns to surround the camp, and if anyone dares to attack or resist, shoot them directly. Therefore, if these Gui soldiers want to live well, in addition to being honest themselves, they must also explain that others must be honest. Otherwise, as soon as the Red Army's heavy machine guns are fired, it will really be in vain to kill innocent people.
After cleaning up the city defense troops of the Gui Army in the city, He Zhengdao quickly sent people to take over the city defense of Gongcheng, and let the Red Army soldiers brought in, riding the captured security regiment war horses, to take Zhang Cheng and others who stayed outside the city into the city overnight. At the same time, he arranged for people to begin to count the loot of various warehouses in the city.
With regard to the weapons and ammunition that could not be taken away from this large warehouse, and seeing that there were still four vehicles transporting materials in the city, He Zhengdao singled out a few soldiers from the Red Army who dared to boldly try to drive overnight, and explained to them in detail the essentials of driving. And led these people and taught them the procedures and techniques of driving.
After the assault teaching, He Zhengdao was not worried about any car destruction and death, so these nervous and excited soldiers drove around the city in four cars. From the initial bumps and bumps to the last few laps, these surprise training drivers have been able to drive the car in style.
With these four cars, He Zhengdao will undoubtedly have more supplies to transfer from the city, pick up some valuable things and load them overnight. And after dawn, in order to prevent the news from leaking, the Red Army, which was specially ordered to wear the clothes of the Gui Army to defend the city, was only allowed to let people in, not to let people out.
As for when they attacked last night, because the speed was too fast, the deputy head of the regiment who stayed behind had not yet had time to spread the news of the fall of Gongcheng. This also gave the Red Army, which had time during the day to take the opportunity to take turns to rest and follow up on food, to free up a valuable time to rest and recuperate.
Compared with Wang Tianlin and the others taking turns to rest, He Zhengdao began to arrange preparations for retreat all the time. During their one-day stay in the city, they successively captured several search teams of the Gui Army who had entered the city with Red Army prisoners, and rescued dozens of Red Army soldiers who were escorted here to receive rewards.
With the replenishment of these Red Army soldiers, He Zhengdao's troops also quickly broke through to more than 300 people, and he could form three downsized companies of 90 people, as well as a guard platoon that he specially selected to form.
Knowing that they would leave next, the news of the appearance of a Red Army unit in Gongcheng was likely to cause shaking in the surrounding counties, and he would definitely not be able to take some seriously wounded soldiers on the road. Otherwise, it will make it more difficult for troops to move to war.
He Zhengdao, who didn't want these Red Army to fall into the hands of the Gui Army again, thought that in almost every county in these years, there should be underground party organizations. Immediately ordered people to post the news of the capture of Gongcheng by the Red Army in the city. For a while, the people of Gongcheng, who felt that something was wrong when they got up, realized that their Gongcheng was occupied by the Red Army.
He Zhengdao, who had originally planned to attract some pursuers for the main force, also ordered all three companies of the Red Army to change into Red Army uniforms after posting the Red Army's characteristic big-character posters. Soon a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman, like a Red Army sentry standing guard at the gate of the headquarters of the Security Corps, asked to meet with their unit commander.
After hearing that it was the secretary of the underground party branch in the city, and sure enough, he Zhengdao was undoubtedly very happy, and hurriedly ended the battle meeting of the next marching route, and let people lead the underground party secretary of Gongcheng.
From the conversation, it was learned that in the case of the defeat of the Red Army on the front, the guerrillas here had successively rescued hundreds of Red Army soldiers, and they were all hiding in the mountains near Gongcheng to rest. He Zhengdao immediately sent a small unit to accompany the underground party secretary to bring back the Red Army that had no weapons and had lost its combat effectiveness.
At the same time, from the seized materials, guns and ammunition, he generously sent the underground party branch secretary and a batch of weapons and equipment used by the regular army of the Gui Army. As the equipment for these underground parties and the local guerrillas to expand their troops in the future.
This is also to make this guerrilla force active in the vicinity of Gongcheng not have to retreat or dodge because of the lack of ammunition because of a few shots when they encounter a small group of Gui troops in the future.
In this regard, the party branch secretary, who is also the political commissar of the guerrillas in the Gongcheng area, is undoubtedly a surprise. I sighed in my heart, they finally don't have to worry about the lack of weapons!
