Chapter 47: Encirclement and Reinforcement (3)

"Sir, find out clearly, the commander of the puppet army stationed in Zhangwu County is a young man named Hashimoto Mayama, there are more than 200 soldiers and a garrison regiment of the Imperial Association Army in the county, the total number is about 600 people" Yu Dazhi, dressed as a common man, drove the mule cart back, and after taking the Caoling Coal Mine, Zhao Zhi sent Yu Dazhi and several Chinese mercenaries among the mercenaries to disguise themselves as ordinary people transporting coal into Zhangwu County, and did not move after taking Caojiazhuang, Zhao Zhi was equal to Dazhi's reconnaissance results.

After a day of wandering around the county, Yu Dazhi not only figured out the number of the puppet army, but also used crayons to draw the specific location of the puppet army in the county seat on the white cloth handkerchief on his shoulder, as for the sketch of Zhangwu County, Zhao Zhi had already known it from Huang Weirong's son who went to school in the county, plus the sketch brought back by Yu Dazhi, as long as he used these things, Zhao Zhi could accurately attack the garrison of the puppet army at the first time.

"Surround the point and send reinforcements." After knowing Zhao Zhi's combat intentions, Li Dashan, the only officer among the prisoners of war of the Eighth Route Army, was a little surprised, Zhao Zhi is now formulating this battle plan and the Eighth Route Army's commonly used encirclement point reinforcements are exactly the same, but in Zhao Zhi's battle plan, all the troops are allocated very reasonably, unlike the Eighth Route Army, which will concentrate most of its forces for ambush every time, once the troops left on the other side as sniper reinforcements cannot bear it, it will cause a situation of killing 10,000 enemies and injuring 8,000 themselves.

"Almost" Zhao Zhi smiled and shook his head, "Although it looks similar to your usual encirclement point reinforcements, but I call this kind of combat mobile warfare, destroying the enemy in non-stop movement, whether or not I can eliminate the puppet army that came to the rescue, I can take Zhangwu County, because that is my real purpose" Zhao Zhi's words made Li Dashan fall into deep thought, Zhao Zhi's tactical tactics are similar to those commonly used by the Eighth Route Army, but Zhao Zhi's tactics are more flexible, multi-point attacks, and if you miss a hit, you can get rid of the pursuers and flee immediately.

"Eugene, your submachine gun squad is attacking the county seat, Dazhi takes the scout squad to do the target guidance, snail, all the machine guns are handed over to you to command, the first wave of attacks must be fully fired, and the attack position will be evacuated after three minutes, Yezi, you and Jinquan will each take 10 snipers to watch the head and tail of the target, and the target soldiers and baggage team will be handed over to you to deal with, Iron Hammer, the mortar will be handed over to you, and the opponent's heavy weapons will be handed over to you to deal with" Zhao Zhi made the final tactical arrangements for the mercenaries, this will be the establishment of the mercenary force, One of the most intense operations.

The firecrackers looted from Caojiazhuang were piled up in a big pile, and the iron bucket was also ready, which was the specialty of the Eighth Route Army, Zhao Zhi picked up the phone at the same time, Li Dashan also lit the firecrackers in the iron bucket, the crackling firecrackers and the echo of the iron bucket, like the sound of machine gun shooting, "I am the Caojiazhuang team, I am the Caojiazhuang team" Zhao Zhi said in a panic and used the phone to rescue the county, "We have been attacked by a large number of eight roads, the Caoling Coal Mine has been lost, repeat, the Caoling Coal Mine has been lost, Eight roads are attacking Caojiazhuang, ask for support, ask for support"

Zhao Zhi, who had broken the telephone line, threw the telephone receiver in his hand with a smile, the entire Caojiazhuang had been surrounded by the Imperial Association Army that had just come over anyway, and no one could run out, and the troops attacking the county town had already set off on horseback before dawn, four hours was enough for them to hide very close to the county seat, as long as Hashimoto Mayama dared to raise troops to save Caojiazhuang, Zhangwu County would definitely be broken by Eugene and them.

"Let's go, it's time for us to act" Zhao Zhi greeted, and several mercenaries who stayed in Caojiazhuang got on Zhao Zhi's truck, which was just intercepted this morning, they were originally going to Caoling to pull coal, but now it has become Zhao Zhi's means of transportation, which is why Zhao Zhi chose to carry out the battle today, if the truck that pulls coal does not go back, the puppet army in Zhangwu County will be suspicious.

Zhao Zhi's choice of ambush point is a large open area only more than 20 miles away from the county seat, Li Dashan, who came with him, disagreed with Zhao Zhi's plan, in his opinion, this is not suitable for ambush at all, there is no one to hide on both sides of the road, but Zhao Zhi doesn't think so, there are more than a dozen lonely graves not far from the north side of the highway, which will be the place where Zhao Zhi arranges the machine gun group, these lonely graves have long been here, and the pedestrians and the puppet army who changed their guards are tired of looking at it, They would never have imagined that someone would hide in this graveyard and ambush them.

Zhao Zhi chose this place as an ambush point, the main reason is that there is an abandoned village 2 miles away from the cemetery, between the cemetery and the village, the leading soldiers of the Yue army will choose the village as the key defense object, so that they will relax the search for the cemetery, once the puppet army brigade on the kilometer is ambushed by the machine gun group, in the case of not being able to hold on, their only way to retreat is the village 2 miles away, this is another trap prepared by Zhao Zhi for the puppet army, which will trap the puppet army alive in it.

When Zhao Zhi drove to the ambush point, the mercenaries who rode horses from the direction of the county town to report the news also brought the news that Hashimoto Mayama was coming with reinforcements, Hashimoto Mayama brought 150 soldiers and 300 imperial troops this time, but the reinforcements from Hashimoto Mayama came in batches, he called all the trucks, bicycles and mules and horses in the county, and sent a mixed army of 120 people to hurry over, but he took the rest of the puppet army and fell behind and marched with the help of the carriage.

"This Hashimoto Mayama's courage is too small" Zhao Zhi saw at a glance that this was Hashimoto Mayama's fear of being ambushed to make such a formation, but the other party was already like this, and his side had to change the way to deal with it, and several grenadiers that were originally used as supplementary firepower were transferred by Zhao Zhi to the deserted village, and most of the prisoners of war were also sent over, and their task was to cooperate with the snipers to block the vanguard of the puppet army on the side of the deserted village, attracting Hashimoto Mayama's attention to focus on the deserted village.

The machine gun group that was originally arranged in the cemetery was strictly ordered by Zhao Zhi not to expose the target, their target was the follow-up troops of the puppet army led by Hashimoto, whether they could eat the big fat meat of Hashimoto Mountain, to a large extent, it must rely on the endurance and assault firepower of the machine gun group, and the firepower group of all 7 machine guns in Zhao Zhi's hand in the cemetery was his last trump card, and it was also the straw that would crush Hashimoto Mountain.
