Chapter 26: Attack while the situation is on
Sure enough, as Qiao Youhua expected, the headquarters was shelled, and the news that the supreme commander's life and death were unknown soon spread to all the Japanese troops around Zheng Village, in fact, the explosion in the dark night was enough to alarm them.
Most of the Japanese puppet army was chaotic, and the blockade was even more lax, and Qiao Youhua and Jiang Haidong easily withdrew to Zhengcun.
After returning to the village, Qiao Youhua immediately ordered the entire Dragon Tooth Task Force to assemble.
In a large courtyard in the center of the village, Qiao Youhua looked at his subordinates in the dark with a torch in his eyes: "Brothers, in today's battle, your appearance is quite good, which is beyond my expectations, and it even makes the little devil fiercely understand the power of our Dragon Tooth Task Force!"
After this battle, you will all become a qualified fighter, and I am very proud of you.
Just now, I killed the Japanese command with Captain Jiang, and the devils outside the village are already in chaos, for us, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has come, pick up your weapons and rush out for me, take the initiative to attack the enemy, and take advantage of the situation to defeat them! ”
"Don't let go of a Japanese puppet army and flee back to the county seat! Give it to me, brethren! As Jiang Haidong raised his arms, dozens of members of the Dragon Tooth Task Force who had already killed red-eyed people rushed out of the compound one after another.
Qiao Youhua and Jiang Haidong handed over the two grenadiers to the two soldiers, and both of them picked up the crooked light machine guns loaded with bullets and rushed to the front of the line.
At this moment, the devils outside the village had already become a mess, and several Japanese second lieutenants and lieutenant officers were urgently discussing what to do.
Tom tom Boom Boom Boom Boom ...... A violent explosion sounded, and the blockade fortifications arranged by the devils at the intersection of the north of the village were already enveloped in a sea of fire.
Under the cover of the grenadiers, Qiao Youhua and the other four soldiers led all the soldiers of the Dragon Tooth Task Force to launch a swift attack on the devils.
Five crooked light machine guns formed a rapid and dense firepower to open the way, and the surviving Japanese puppet troops at the firing point were shot and fell to the ground.
The Japanese puppet army, which was already panicked and demoralized, was suddenly attacked by such rapid firepower that they couldn't resist at all, and soon turned around and fled.
On the battlefield, the escape soon caused a terrible chain reaction, especially Li Ka-shing's more than 100 devils, who fled back regardless of a single qiē, not only scattered the Japanese troops who wanted to stop them, but also triggered the rout of the devil soldiers.
Qiao Youhua and his comrades-in-arms kept strafing and pursuing with light machine guns, and the Japanese puppet army was constantly shot in the back and fell, and soon, the Japanese puppet army was defeated like a mountain, and they couldn't even take care of their cars and other baggage.
"Brethren! Chase, don't let go of a little devil! Zhang Yunshan, who was also holding a light machine gun, shouted at the top of his throat and led the task force to continue the pursuit.
In the panic, many Japanese puppet troops ran into the vast green gauze tent in a panic, and the scattered army could not form an army, Qiao Youhua and others led the task force to pursue all the way for a full 20 kilometers, and at 8 o'clock in the morning, there was no Japanese puppet army in front of them, so they stopped the pursuit.
Return and start cleaning up the battlefield.
When Qiao Youhua and the others returned to the location of the convoy left by the Japanese army, Zhang Yunshan had already rushed over to report to him: "Captain, good news, we have captured two artillery pieces!" ”
"Artillery?" Qiao Youhua's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Where is it?" ”
Four or five task force members had already come running with "artillery" and spare parts in their hands.
Qiao Youhua looked at it and couldn't help but smile and said: "I thought it was really an infantry gun or something, it turned out to be a 60mm mortar!" ”
Seeing this, Zhang Yunshan asked, "What, captain, isn't this cannon good?" ”
"It's not bad, it can only be regarded as a light short-range small-caliber artillery, but for us now, it is not a small heavy weapon, and the devils used them to launch artillery attacks on us last night." Qiao Youhua said with a smile.
"Well, this mortar is really powerful." Zhang Yunshan recalled the scene when the village was shelled last night, and the feeling of the ground shaking was vivid, and he couldn't help but understand.
"Naturally, it is much more powerful than the grenadiers we currently have, both in terms of range and power." Qiao Youhua suddenly remembered a question: "By the way, why didn't you see the shell?" Aren't there shells? ”
"Cannonballs?" Zhang Yunshan looked at several task forces, and they all shook their heads.
Wu Ming said: "It is estimated that the little devils were all shot up last night, but it's nothing, as long as there is a mortar in hand, when there is a chance to go to the highway to fight the little devils one day, there will be everything!" ”
"Yes." Qiao Youhua said with relief: "Don't be idle, hurry up and clean up the battlefield and collect our loot as much as possible." ”
It was almost noon, the battlefield was cleaned, and the training ground at the west end of the village was already full of all kinds of captured guns, ammunition and supplies, and the nine military trucks had also driven here.
Qiao Youhua smoked silently with a captured Japanese Sakura brand cigarette in one hand, Wu Ming, who was in charge of statistics, walked over at this time, and said to him with excitement on his face: "Head, our harvest this time is really not small, you see, there are more than 300 rifles, two bases for each ammunition, five light machine guns, 3,000 bullets, and in addition to a Type 92 heavy machine gun with 600 bullets."
There were four mortars, no shells, eight grenadiers, 150 small grenades, 19 pistols, a number of bullets, and more than 100 grenades.
By the way, there are also these nine intact military trucks, which still have more than half of the fuel in them, and the side three-wheeled motorcycle you captured earlier can also be driven out to pull the wind. ”
Hearing this number, the corners of Qiao Youhua's mouth finally couldn't help but smile happily, with this batch of supplies, he can arm a battalion of type B, of course, this is only based on the number of weapons.
After all, the formation of a force is not only about weapons and ammunition, logistics is the top priority, if you just want to rely on the transportation line to ambush devils to feed a battalion-level troops, it is unrealistic, and the real logistics have to rely on the support of the local people.
The people's war advocated by the great Chairman Mao is the most shrewd and correct ideology, and once any army is without the support of the people, it will not be able to survive for a long time.
No matter how brave and invincible it is.
Seeing that Qiao Youhua was happy, Wu Ming continued: "This is only calculated according to the intact, and I don't count some damaged weapons. ”
Qiao Youhua nodded and said: "Yes, with these weapons, our firepower will be greatly strengthened, and our strength will naturally be further improved, hurry up and mobilize the villagers to help hoard the excess weapons and ammunition, and then drive the military truck to the woods under the mountain to hide, and release the gasoline for centralized storage, and keep it for later use." ”
"Yes!" Wu Ming and the others stepped forward one after another, and then turned around and left.
