Chapter 512: Gu Zhutong was captured
"Ah, the Special Operations Brigade, you are the special operations brigade that makes the little devils frightened, the Reading Division of the Eighth Route Army. Comrades, the Party Central Committee has not forgotten our New Fourth Army, and the Party Central Committee sent the most elite special operations brigade of the Eighth Route Army to rescue us. Now that the Kuomintang army under the mountain has been defeated by the special operations brigade, and the whole battalion can still continue to operate, it will immediately replenish the weapons and ammunition discarded by the enemy and prepare to retreat..."Hearing the squad leader's answer, the battalion commander, who was still puzzled just now, immediately showed a look of excitement on his face, and ordered excitedly to the remaining more than 80 soldiers in the trenches... As for the soldiers who stood in the middle of the standing, the faces of the more than eighty had already been revealed, ready for the last battle before death. After hearing that the dozens of people in front of him turned out to be a special operations brigade, a unit that even the Chinese army was afraid of, his face immediately regained a trace of color. Hearing the battalion commander's order, the tired look on the faces of the more than 70 fighters who were still able to continue the operation was also swept away, and they quickly jumped out of the trench and picked up the brand-new rifles and light machine guns that were discarded when the enemy retreated in front of the position. At the same time, a yellowish-orange bullet was also stuffed all over the body by these surviving fighters... In less than a few minutes, these dozens of fighters, who had only replenished a little dry food and ammunition, showed a look of resoluteness on their faces, and their morale rose with the bulging bullets in the bullet bags.......
"Comrade, there are still 76 fighters left in the battalion, and we can continue to fight, so please assign us tasks..." Looking at the troops standing in front of him, after replenishing dry food and ammunition, and once again regaining their morale, the battalion commander came, and was carefully observing the side of the squad leader who had captured the enemy's military map, and asked with a serious face..."Comrade battalion commander, our unit was ordered to rescue the comrades-in-arms of the New Fourth Army. According to the regulations, the rescued troops, under the leadership of some team members, will quickly withdraw from the battlefield and move along the retreat route that our army has already chosen, so as to avoid falling into the encirclement of the enemy again. Comrade battalion commander, please gather your troops at once, take all the wounded and prepare for evacuation. When the time comes, I will send a special operator of the combat team to cover your retreat. The squad leader replied, "Comrade, what about you?" With one less combat team, there are less than fifty people left in the total strength, what do you plan to do next? The battalion commander did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically to the squad leader in front of him.
"Comrade battalion commander, our next task is, of course, to rescue more comrades-in-arms like you, who are surrounded by heavy enemy troops. You can rest assured, although we only have four combat teams left, there are absolutely no problems in this mountain forest... The first combat group, you immediately take the soldiers of the New Fourth Army and rush to the rendezvous point explained by the captain before departure, hurry...."The squad leader ordered loudly..."No, this comrade, you are rescuing our New Fourth Army troops, although we are safe, but we cannot watch our comrades-in-arms being killed by the enemy... Comrade Captain, I order a platoon of fighters to retreat with the wounded, and the rest of the troops will follow you. I promise that in the course of the operation, all of them will obey your command and strive to rescue more comrades..."The battalion commander shook his head and replied with an affirmative face... After a full half minute of contemplation, the squad leader who couldn't think of any solution had to agree to the proposal of the battalion commander in front of him, and then ordered: "Okay, Battalion Commander Wang, you select fifty soldiers from the remaining troops, bring all the light machine guns and bullets we have captured, and act with us." The rest of the troops, taking the wounded and three prisoners, withdrew from the battlefield"
"Thank you, Captain Li, I promise, we will definitely listen to the command during the operation...."After speaking, Battalion Commander Wang ran away with a smile on his face. Among the remaining more than seventy fighters, a full fifty fighters were selected, carrying a dozen or so light machine guns captured in the battle just now, followed closely behind dozens of special combat personnel, and began to rush towards the next battlefield....
The other seven special operations teams with the same mission as them also launched a fierce life-and-death rescue on the battlefield within a radius of several kilometers. Thanks to the efforts of the two combat squadrons and more than 400 special combat personnel, the units of the New Fourth Army, which were surrounded by heavy troops and ran out of ammunition and food, were snatched back from the hands of Lord Yama. A wounded man, captured by the enemy, was also rescued ... In just one night, nearly 2,000 commanders and fighters of the New Fourth Army were rescued by the special combat troops, freed themselves from the enemy's encirclement and suppression, and successfully withdrew from the battlefield... The special operations squadron, led by the political commissar himself, can be said to have achieved very great results after a night of fighting. Similarly, Liu Xiaogang, who was preparing to sneak attack the enemy's command organs, and the two special operations squadrons distributed on the Nuoda battlefield were also not idle. Just when the first New Fourth Army unit besieged by [***] was successfully rescued. The entire special operations brigade and the most elite guard team led by Liu Xiaogang have quietly moved to the foot of a mountain..."It seems that tonight, we are lucky to have encountered a big fish..." Holding the telescope in his hand, he looked at the top of the mountain several hundred meters high, above a huge tent, the dense antennas, telephone lines, and various officers and patrol units that were constantly going back and forth on the narrow path leading to the top of the mountain. The corners of Captain Liu Xiaogang's mouth couldn't help but show a sneer, and he said excitedly..."Captain, the investigation team has returned, and the situation has been investigated. The enemy on the top of the mountain is the supreme command organ of the Kuomintang army this time, that is, the headquarters of Gu Zhutong, the commander-in-chief of the Kuomintang army, and Shangguan Yunxiang... In addition, around the perimeter of the command headquarters, approximately a battalion of guard units was arranged. At the same time, on two hills, less than a kilometer away from the commanding troops, a regiment of troops was stationed. As long as the gunfire here goes off, in a maximum of ten minutes, the reinforcements of the two regiments can rush to the battlefield..."Just when Liu Xiaogang observed the enemy's position in front of his eyes. The captain of the guard squad whispered to the strong man he had just detected..."It seems that this is a hard bone that is not easy to swallow....A guard battalion unit, with dozens of people in our hands, it is almost impossible to quietly eliminate all of them." This Gu Zhutong really deserves to be the general commander of the Kuomintang army, and the security defense of his headquarters is very tightly arranged..."Liu Xiaogang nodded and said..."However, captain, there is a very brief summary of the Bank of China. According to reconnaissance, the two main regiments of the enemy, as well as their headquarters, were arranged in a zigzag pattern. And their two main regiments were aimed exactly at the direction where the battlefield was located. Even the enemy's guard battalion placed most of its forces in front of the headquarters. As for the rear of the command, only one company of troops was placed. I think we can go straight back to the rear of the enemy's headquarters and launch a sneak attack...", the squad leader continued.
"Quick, bring me the map of the enemy detected by the reconnaissance team..."Hearing this, Liu Xiaogang's eyes immediately lit up, and he immediately snatched a sketch in the hand of the squad leader in front of him, and began to look at it seriously according to the squad leader's answer just now... In less than half a minute, Liu Xiaogang's face was immediately shrouded in a confident smile.
"Okay, okay, it looks like God is helping us. This Gu Zhutong, even if he is the commander-in-chief of the Kuomintang generals, is destined to become a prisoner of our Eighth Route Army tonight. Captain Zhang, ordered the troops, immediately transferred, detoured to the rear of the enemy's headquarters, and moved at the right time. Remember, after the transfer, we must wipe out all the traces we left behind, and we must not let the enemy's patrol force find any clues..."After reading the sketch in his hand and looking at the watch on his arm, Liu Xiaogang did not hesitate, and immediately ordered to the team leader beside him....
A group of more than 60 people, with Liu Xiaogang's order, quickly disappeared into the dark night, and made a detour to the rear of the enemy's headquarters... Finally, after another two-hour covert march, the troops finally succeeded in passing through the blockade line arranged by the enemy's guard units and concealed themselves at the foot of the hill, which was still more than 500 meters away from the enemy's headquarters..."The reconnaissance group, which was responsible for knocking out all the enemy's sentinels, and the first and second combat groups, which were responsible for destroying the enemy's patrols. The 3rd and 4th Combat Groups, under my personal command, penetrated directly into the enemy's headquarters and prepared to capture the enemy's supreme commander..."After a short rest of 10 minutes, Liu Xiaogang immediately gave the order to attack the team members behind him.
As a result, a sharp weapon composed of crossbows and crossbow arrows with cold light began to set off a bloody dark battle in the rear of the enemy's headquarters... Under the accurate shooting of crossbow arrows, one by one the enemy sentries collapsed limply in the grass and turned into corpses... Enemy patrols were wiped out in an instant by sudden crossbow arrows. In less than ten minutes, the two patrols in the rear of the enemy headquarters, together with a platoon of guard posts, all fell under the crossbow arrows of the team members, and turned into lonely ghosts..."Captain, all obstacles have been cleared, and only one platoon of the enemy remains, with a few machine-gun fortifications, blocking us in front of us?" "As the last sentry fell in the thick grass. Looking fifty meters away, less than fifty meters behind the enemy's headquarters. On several machine-gun positions stacked with sandbags, black holes of gun barrels were prominently exposed.
"Can you touch them quietly and kill them all?" Liu Xiaogang nodded, put down the binoculars in his hand, and asked the team leader in front of him.
"No, the enemy is in front of the position, and several huge bonfires have been lit, which illuminate the front of the position brightly, and the soldiers can't get close to the range of the crossbow at all..."Captain Zhang shook his head and said..."You can't sneak over, let's go the opposite way and walk over in the light." Order a combat group, change into the clothes of a [***] patrol, disguise themselves as a patrol, and walk directly to their positions. If this is possible, they will be wiped out silently, and then the enemy's supreme commander will be captured. If we can't succeed, we can only carry out a strong attack, destroy the enemy's command organs, and let the rear quickly retreat..."Liu Xiaogang's face showed a resolute look, and he ordered with a look of certainty..."Yes, captain, this time I will personally lead the team, and I will definitely quietly take the enemy's position and open a passage for the troops..." After speaking, the leader of the guard squad disappeared from everyone's field of vision with an elite combat team.
And after less than ten minutes, less than twenty meters away from everyone, a [***] patrol team suddenly appeared... More than a dozen [***] soldiers, humming a small tune, slowly walked towards the [***] position on the top of the mountain... To everyone's surprise, the patrol of 12 people, without any interrogation, easily walked to a position less than ten meters away from the enemy's machine-gun position....
And at this moment, the crossbows hidden behind the back of the 12 team members slowly revealed his bloodthirsty form... Just when the 12 people were approaching a machine-gun position, and an officer-like person on the position, holding a shell gun, was about to walk out of the position for questioning, a command to "start" reached everyone's ears... Immediately afterwards, 12 crossbow bows, under the inditation of 12 team members, desperately shot a few crossbow arrows in the crossbow arrow slot at their fastest speed, and shot them into the necks of [***] soldiers... A slight scream sounded, and more than thirty soldiers, before they could react, were inserted into hedgehogs and turned into limp corpses under the intensive fire of a full 60 crossbow arrows..."The reconnaissance team is responsible for guarding the surroundings. The rest of me rushed into their headquarters. Demand, now is an important moment, we don't have time to keep prisoners. Therefore, if you see any enemy officers below the rank of major general, do not hesitate to shoot them all... Now let's set off right away...."After seeing the signal of the successful operation, Liu Xiaogang immediately took more than 30 team members and quickly rushed towards the enemy's headquarters on the top of the mountain... At this very moment, Gu Zhutong, the supreme commander of the enemy, together with his deputy commander Shangguan Yun and staff officers, a general commander-in-chief, a lieutenant general, and several major generals were surrounding a huge sand table in the tent of the headquarters to discuss the constantly changing battle situation in front of them..."What's going on, when did a unit with such a strong combat effectiveness appear in the New Fourth Army." In less than a few hours, several regimental headquarters and one brigade headquarters were attacked, three colonels and regimental commanders, one major general brigade commander, and one lieutenant general division commander were captured, and their fate is unknown. What's more, the more than 2,000 troops of the New Fourth Army are just gone....Chief of Staff, you say, what the hell is going on, can any of you give me a reasonable explanation..."Gu Zhutong patted the sand table in front of him and asked with an unhappy face..."Commander-in-Chief Gu, don't ask them, they don't know, or let me tell you?" Just when all the staff officers bowed their heads and were silent in the face of the commander-in-chief's questioning. The curtain of the tent was lifted at once, and immediately after that, several '[***] soldiers" broke in. The soldiers who walked in the front said with a sneer to the command headquarters and the command staff.
"Who are you, who let you in, don't you know, this is the commander-in-chief of the war zone, Ma. Guards, guards, pull these unruly soldiers out and kill me..."Gu Zhutong, who was already annoyed, saw a few small soldiers and talked to himself in such a disdainful tone. Immediately, there was a burst of anger, and he ordered at the door of the tent with an angry face..."Comrades, start moving, let our Commander-in-Chief Gu know who we are..." Facing the several staff officers who were blocking him, he pulled the trigger of the bow and crossbow..."Whoosh..."A slight sound sounded, and several team members who followed Liu Xiaogang pulled the trigger of the bow and crossbow in their hands at the same time. Suddenly, after a rain of arrows, more than a dozen guards and combat staff officers who were about to draw their guns in front of Gu Zhutong were stuck with crossbow arrows that were emitting bursts of cold light on their necks, and turned into corpses..."You are [***]'s troops?" Looking at the dozen or so corpses that fell in front of him, looking at the few people left, the only few left, the commander with the rank of general on his shoulder, looking at the soldiers standing in front of him, a delicate crossbow and a steel arrow that emitted a cold light, Gu Zhutong suddenly came to his senses, and couldn't help but exclaim..."Commander-in-Chief Gu, generals. You guessed it, our number is the Special Operations Brigade of the Reading Force Division of the Eighth Route Army. Today, I was ordered to come and take a few generals to Shanxi Province to be judged by the people. I think Commander-in-Chief Gu, as the general and commander-in-chief of [***], should know what crimes he has committed against the people in the past few days... However, I warn you, don't think about running away, now you are surrounded by my people. If anyone has any irrational thoughts, I promise, you will die more tragically than a few people on the ground..."A sneer appeared at the corner of Liu Xiaogang's mouth, and he replied to Gu Zhutong in front of him..."Alas! When I was carrying out the order of the chairman, I had long thought that you [***] people would not let me go, and I really didn't want to fight, but I came so quickly. Dare to ask this brother, is the unit that suddenly appeared on the battlefield your troops..."Gu Zhutong sighed and replied speechlessly..."Commander-in-Chief Gu, I will definitely tell you these things on the way." Captain Zhang, clean up the battlefield immediately, bring the necessary things, and retreat immediately... Commander-in-Chief Gu, generals, please..."As Liu Xiaogang waved his hand, several team members rushed over, quickly collected the guns of several people, and joined the retreat with a few people.
