Chapter Twenty-Nine: Combination Punches
It was Ye Xuefeng who led the attack on the county seat. At this moment, he was wearing a big hat and squatting on the city wall with the warm winter sun, holding a grass stalk in his mouth, squinting his eyes at the people coming and going on the street, the comrades of the commando team were already in place, just waiting for twelve o'clock at noon to attack.
The operation was unified and commanded by Chen Zikun, commander-in-chief of the Jiangbei guerrilla zone, and all armed forces in Jiangbei participated, and the Daqingshan detachment of the Eighth Route Army took on the two most arduous tasks, one was to raid the county seat, and the other was to block the reinforcements from North Thailand.
The market is very lively, the people who rush to the market are bustling, the sentry at the entrance of the Imperial Association Legion Department carries a big gun, lazily looking at the big girl and little daughter-in-law in the crowd, suddenly four peasants carry two slaughtered fat pigs and come over, saying that the pork bought by the boss sent us over, the sentry did not suspect that there was a fraud, waved their hands and let them in.
The four of them entered the regimental room, and the cook, who had already been inserted, came to greet them, took out the box cannon and grenades from the hollowed-out pig body and hid them under the table, chopped the pork into large pieces and threw it into the pot.
The cook took a bowl of stewed chicken, called a team member, carried a box cannon and grenades and entered the turret, saying that he was bringing food to the horse platoon commander, and the guards took a piece of meat from the bowl and ate it, and let them in. ”
"The horse platoon has a long nose and is really smart, and it is about to catch up with the dog." The young man behind the cook sneered.
"Who are you!" The horse platoon was furious.
"Lao Tzu is the eighth way!" The young man pulled out the box cannon, the nose of the machine was wide open, and the grenade was held in the other hand: "Whoever moves will kill whom." ”
The pistol of the platoon commander was hung on the wall, and several rifles were also placed against the wall, how dare he resist in the face of the muzzle, he obediently lay on the ground, the cook waved his hand down, and the other three knocked over the doorman and swarmed up, grabbed the light machine gun, climbed up the turret and took down the five-color flag.
This is a signal of success, Ye Xuefeng raised his wrist to look at his watch, it was exactly twelve o'clock, he walked to the street and stood still, pulled out the box cannon and shot three times into the sky, and shouted: "Eighth Road has entered the city!" ”
Suddenly there was a big chaos, the people scattered and fled, the puppet army guarding the gate of the regiment headquarters hurriedly raised their guns, they had already been put down by the random guns, the puppet army basking in the sun on the playground had not yet stood up, and a row of bullets on the turret was down, and a burst of smoke and dust was raised on the ground, and there was a **shout: "Surrender the gun and don't kill!" ”
The combat effectiveness of the puppet army was extremely poor, and the soldiers solved it without bloodshed, more than 30 people were captured, 80 rifles and two light machine guns were captured.
As soon as the gunshots rang out in the city, the large troops outside the city drove in, the county seat was empty, and the Daqingshan detachment only dispatched one-third of its troops, and within twenty minutes it controlled the whole city, except for the old county office guarded by Japanese soldiers.
The Yamada squadron only left more than 20 people to guard the old nest, but these more than 20 people were stubbornly guarding the old county office, and the guerrillas were stopped at the door by heavy fire, and they could not move an inch, and they attacked several times, and more than a dozen soldiers were killed and wounded, but there was still no progress.
Someone suggested climbing the wall, but as soon as he climbed the wall, he was hit by a shot by the Japanese soldiers on the turret, and the road could not be walked.
"Political Commissar Ye, what should I do?" The soldiers looked at Ye Xuefeng with anxious eyes.
Ye Wei helped the injured comrade-in-arms bandage his wounds, and said silently in his heart, Brother Ye, don't panic, be calm.
The sound of machine guns was dense and piercing, stimulating Ye Xuefeng's nerves, the damn devil resisted desperately, he had to let them know the power of the Eighth Route Army, he roared: "Grenade!" ”
A box of grenades was carried over, and two soldiers specially helped him pull the strings, although Ye Xuefeng was a political officer, he was also a Red Army soldier, with extremely high tactical literacy and excellent arm strength, small melon grenades were thrown into it one after another, and the smoke in the bombed yard was billowing, and the haunted house was howling.
Ye Xuefeng snatched a machine gun from the soldier's hand, rushed in first, and shouted: "Comrades, follow me!" ”
The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were shocked by Ye Xuefeng's bravery, is this still the political commissar they knew, without any hesitation, everyone picked up their weapons and rushed in with him, a few little devils came up with bayonets, and were swept down by Ye Xuefeng with a shuttle, and the rest of the people hurriedly drilled into the corner of the turret and resisted stubbornly.
The Japanese built a ten-meter-high turret in the old county yali, built with strips of stone and big blue bricks, extremely strong, with gun holes open on all sides, countless ammunition in the turret, dry food and drinking water, it is difficult to gnaw down.
Ye Xuefeng sent a few soldiers to go up with cluster grenades, and only one person rushed to the foot of the turret alive and pulled the grenade, but the turret was undamaged, and the fragments of the grenade were not lethal to the solid building.
Ye Xuefeng asked people to find a few quilts soaked in water and attack on the door panel, this kind of earthen tank can prevent fire, but it has no defense under the fire of machine guns, and sacrificed a few soldiers in vain.
The Eighth Route Army could not capture the turret, and the Japanese soldiers did not dare to come out, and the battle reached a stalemate.
Ye Xuefeng was anxious, and suddenly someone reported that Xia Jingqi had run away and only caught Lu Sanli, a traitor.
"Drag it down and die!" Ye Xuefeng Road.
"Grandpa Balu spares his life." Lu Sanli screamed miserably, was dragged to the ground not far away, opened the back of his head with a shot, and lay on the ground like a dead dog.
……
The county town is in full swing, but Captain Yamada doesn't know at all, at this moment he is leading the troops on the way to Longwang Village, Longwang Village is located at the foot of Daqing Mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Imperial Association Army has been encircled and suppressed many times in vain, and the Imperial Army has not freed up their hands to clean them up, this time it is going to be real.
Yamada's squadron is a regular infantry, not mountain infantry, it was winter, the soldiers were wearing military coats, sweating after a long march, after entering the mountains, the sky suddenly changed, the temperature plummeted, there was deep snow on the mountain, and it was very difficult to march, but seeing the deep rut marks on the ground, Captain Yamada still urged the soldiers to refuel and move forward.
The Yanma was panting for breath, a burst of white mist was raised, Captain Yamada raised his binoculars to observe the enemy situation on the mountain, only to see the pines and cypresses on the mountain covered with snow, the scenery was extremely beautiful, and in the distance was the endless Daqing Mountain Range, and there was no end in sight, suddenly a bright light flashed, and he wondered in his heart, what was that.
There were three people lying on a hundred-year-old cypress tree halfway up the mountain, Orion Cheng Shi and his son sixteen-year-old bolt pillar, and one was Zhao Ziming.
Holding a monocular in his hand, he observed the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain, counted the collar badges of Captain Yamada and said: "One, two, three, three stars, he is a big official, so I will take him under the knife." ”
Zhao Ziming glanced at him from a distance and said, "He's just a horseman, don't beat him, Brother Shi, come on." ”
Cheng Shi said: "Brother, it's better for you to come." ”
Zhao Ziming said: "Daqingshan is your territory, or you come." ”
Zhu Zhu said: "What do you two let you do, don't fight, I'll fight." ”
At the foot of the mountain, Captain Yamada felt that his ears were hot, and he thought that it was probably his wife Mie in Nagoya, his hometown, who was missing him, and it had been eight months since he last visited his family, and he didn't know if his pregnant wife had given birth, and he smiled when he thought that he was about to become a father.
"Work hard, capture the Dragon King Village, I will allow you to come nonsense." Captain Yamada encouraged, fighting on the battlefield of China, wildness is indispensable, the last sweep, the squadron killed dozens of unarmed civilians, including pregnant women and children, although the heart is not very comfortable, but the thought that this is in the occupied area, but also relieved.
Suddenly, Captain Yamada felt a pain in his body, reached out and touched it, the red blood stains on the white gloves, and the gunshot rang out immediately, he knew that he had been hit by the sniper's bullet, and his body fell off the horse, and the well-trained soldiers hurriedly looked for cover, shooting indiscriminately, and the medical staff helped the captain stop the bleeding, and tore off the military uniform to see, the bullet hit the liver part, and the blood loss was extremely fast, the captain's face was extremely pale, and he pointed to his pocket, trying to say something, but finally did not say it.
The medic took a bloody letter from his pocket and said, "Send this back, right?" ”
Captain Yamada blinked, tilted his head, and died.
The commander was killed, and the squad leader, Lieutenant Suzuki, took over the troops, and he ordered with red eyes that he must avenge Yamada-kun.
The Japanese soldier's earthy yellow tweed coat is particularly eye-catching in the ice and snow, Cheng Shi and Zhao Ziming are first-class snipers, using carefully selected three-eight large covers, straight ballistics, extremely high precision, although the lethality is limited, but the advantage is that the caliber is small and the bullet is light, and can be carried in large quantities.
"Little Japan is more stupid than a roe deer, and he rushed forward in a daze, isn't this looking for death?" The bolt muttered, pulling the trigger at once, don't look at his young age, his marksmanship is about to catch up with his father, and he wears Yang in a hundred steps, and there is no missing bullet.
Zhao Ziming noticed that an enemy was coming from the flank, and hurriedly reminded Cheng Shi: "Brother, the little devil is here." ”
Cheng Shi picked up his rifle: "Let's go!" ”
According to the predetermined plan, the three soldiers were divided into three ways to fight and retreat, making the devils dizzy, and it could be judged from the sound of gunfire that there were few snipers, so they were unwilling to suffer, gritted their teeth and continued to chase, but they didn't know that they were moving towards death step by step.
Unconsciously, the Japanese soldiers chased into a valley, on both sides of the cliffs, people with a little military knowledge know that this is the best place to set up an ambush, Lieutenant Suzuki woke up when it was too late, countless boulders rolled down from the top of the cliff, smashed them on their backs, and then rained grenades, the devils of the explosion cried wolf, and suffered heavy casualties.
The puppet army that followed behind saw that the situation was not good, so they ran away, and a row of guns shot out in the woods, and they were so frightened that they knelt down and surrendered.
When the sun went down, the battle was over, except for a small group of devils who were missing in the depths of the mountain, the rest of the enemies were all wiped out, Zhao Ziming walked to the body of Captain Yamada, raised his axe and cut off his head, put it in a leather bag, flew on his horse, and galloped away.
