Chapter 0182: Surprise Attack on Bayin Town

Xin Yuan knelt in front of Master Huichong's grave, weeping bitterly and grief-stricken. He thought of Master Huichong's nurturing grace and cultivation, and he became more and more sad. He lay on his stomach on the ground, really didn't want to get up again, and stayed there with Master Huichong forever. Seeing this, Qiu Huachun was afraid that Xin Yuan would be too sad, so he hurriedly dragged Xin Yuan up.

Under the joint persuasion of all the warriors, Xin Yuan said goodbye to Master Huichong's tomb and followed Qiu Huachun to the bottom of the mountain. On the way down the mountain, Xin Yuan thought: Yao Fenglan buried her master and six senior brothers, and she must have come to Qingyun Mountain often, so Xin Yuan had the idea of staying in Qingyun Mountain and waiting for Yao Fenglan.

Coming to the foot of the mountain, Qiu Huachun temporarily held a pre-war mobilization meeting, told the soldiers about the operational intention of attacking Bayin Town, and called on everyone to obey the command in all actions and resolutely eliminate the defending enemy of Bayin Town.

After Qiu Huachun finished speaking, he set his eyes on Xin Yuan.

Xin Yuan looked at Qiu Huachun and did not speak, but beckoned Qiu Huachun to come under a big tree.

"Captain, I have an idea for attacking Bayin Town. There is now a squad of devils in Bayin Town, and there is a company of the puppet army, and we don't know where they are stationed, so I suggest sending a few soldiers disguised as civilians to enter Bayin Town to reconnoiter the enemy's deployment in Bayin Town. In this way, we know ourselves and our opponents, and we can win a battle. In addition, I suggest that we first send a squad to enter the town of Ba Yin with the scouts in makeup, as our internal response, so as to ensure that we take the town of Ba Yin and destroy the enemy. Xin Yuan said to Qiu Huachun.

"You're quite right. In my opinion, we quietly approached the town of Bayin, and the troops were waiting for the city in concealment. And then. Send scouts to the town to reconnoiter the enemy. How about we draw up a combat plan based on the enemy's situation? Qiu Huachun looked at Xin Yuan and said.

"Good. I agree. Xin Yuan agreed.

So, Xin Yuan and Qiu Huachun led two platoons of soldiers from the small road and quietly marched towards Bayin Town.

After three hours of marching, the troops reached a wooded area outside the town of Bayin. Qiu Huachun ordered the troops to stand by in the woods, and then called the leader of a platoon and asked him to lead five soldiers. Disguised as ordinary people, he went to Bayin Town to reconnoiter the enemy.

The first squad leader led five soldiers, pretending to be old farmers collecting firewood and dung, and entered Bayin Town from the main road. At the intersection of the south of the town, the squad leader saw two gun towers on both sides of the road, which were guarded by the puppet army. The puppet soldiers on the turret are carrying guns and cigarettes in their mouths, looking like they are hanging out. It may be that there are very few activities of the Eighth Route Army and guerrillas in Bayin Town, and these puppet armies are not the slightest bit guarded. People go in and out of town, and they don't check. Management is also lax.

The leader of the first squad instructed two guerrilla fighters to lie in ambush in the fields behind the two turrets, observe the changes in the turrets, and act as an advance team to wait for the troops to enter the town, take the opportunity to touch the guard posts of the turrets, and cooperate with the troops to take down the two turrets.

The leader of the first squad led the other three fighters and continued to walk towards the town. From afar, I saw two Japanese soldiers, carrying rifles, with chickens and ducks just snatched from the people's homes, swaggering across the street, and the pedestrians on both sides of the street hurriedly hid away when they saw the Japanese soldiers coming.

The first squad leader thought to himself: "Follow these two devils, you can find their barracks, and if you find the devils' barracks, you will know where the devils are stationed." The leader of the squad glanced at the other three guerrilla fighters, and the three of them dispersed, keeping a certain distance from the two Japanese devils, and followed the devils towards the center of the town.

The two devils flaunted their might, kicked and kicked the people who had no time to dodge, and vented wantonly. The anger in the hearts of the squad leader and the three fighters who watched continued to rise. A soldier couldn't hold it back, so he rushed up and slaughtered the two Japanese devils, and the squad leader hurriedly stopped him with gestures.

The two devils finally returned to their barracks, looking domineering and arrogant, and they didn't bother to look behind them to see if they were being followed. A squad leader and three soldiers used a building as a cover to observe the situation in the devil's barracks.

Although the devil's barracks only has a small team, it occupies a large courtyard. The courtyard is surrounded by a courtyard wall more than three meters high, and the wall is built with barbed wire. There are two watchtowers on the left and right sides of the gate of the compound, and the watchtowers are obliquely planted with Japanese dogskin plaster flags. At the top of each watchtower, there is a sentry standing guard. There are also two sentry posts at the entrance of the courtyard. Looking into the compound, the row of bungalows running east and west should be the camp of the devils. It's noon, and the devils are sleeping in the barracks. Standing on a high place, you can see the devils lying on the marching bed.

The squad leader called a soldier and asked him to go back and report the investigation to the captain Qiu Huachun, and he and the other two fighters stayed behind and continued to monitor the devils.

After Qiu Huachun and Xin Yuan listened to the investigator's report, they basically knew the enemy situation in Bayin Town.

Xin Yuan said to Qiu Huachun: "Captain, I think so, we will each take a platoon and act separately, I will clean up the devils, you go to clean up the puppet army at the entrance of the town, we will act at the same time and take the enemy by surprise." ”

Qiu Huachun waved his hand again and again: "No, I'll clean up those devils, you go and clean up those puppet soldiers." The reason why Qiu Huachun arranged it this way was because he knew in his heart that the puppet army was a group of straw bales, which were easy to deal with, and as soon as the guns rang out, they raised their hands and surrendered; And the Japanese devils have relatively strong combat effectiveness, this gnawed hard thing, you can't always let Xin Yuan do it, Qiu Huachun wants to keep the most difficult devil to himself.

Xin Yuan understood what Qiu Huachun meant, so he took Qiu Huachun's arm and said firmly: "You are the captain, you should look at the overall situation, you take the artillery tower of the puppet army, so that you can go to the devil's barracks to support me, so it's decided." Xin Yuan didn't allow Qiu Huachun to say anything more, and shouted at the team, "The first platoon stays, and the second platoon follows me to the devil's barracks." The soldiers of the second platoon had already gathered around Xin Yuan, and by the time they turned around, Xin Yuan and them had disappeared into the bushes.

Xin Yuan led the soldiers of the second platoon, not to walk the streets of the town, but to detour to the east side of the town, jump over a low wall, quickly entered the center of the town, and touched the devil's barracks.

Qiu Huachun led a platoon of guerrilla fighters to the bottom of the turret at the entrance of the town early, and ambushed in the crops on both sides of the turret. The two fighters who were left behind by the squad leader to monitor and answer also returned to the team, and they gave a detailed account of the situation of the puppet army in the turret.

"Captain, let's fight! It's noon, and most of the puppet soldiers are sleeping in the turret, so it's a good time, let's get started. A long platoon lay beside Qiu Huachun and said.

"Wait a little longer! We're going to let Deputy Captain Xin and them do it first. If we make the first move and the gunshots sound, the devils will be awakened when they hear the gunshots, and it will not be so easy for Deputy Captain Xin and them to sneak attack the devils. Our opponent is a puppet army, and its combat effectiveness is not strong, and Deputy Captain Xin is facing well-equipped devils, and their difficulties are greater than ours. Qiu Huachun said.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the platoon leader shouted happily: "Captain, listen, the gunshots have gone out, and Deputy Captain Xin has done it." ”

Qiu Huachun also heard the gunshots, so he made an offensive gesture to the platoon leader. Two soldiers quietly touched the bottom of the turret, one by one, and silently sent the two puppet soldiers standing guard in the two turrets to the western sky. When the platoon leader saw that the guards of the two turrets had been cleared, he waved at the whole platoon of soldiers, and the soldiers divided into two teams and rushed into the turret.

A sentry standing guard on the top of the turret spotted the guerrillas, and just wanted to shout, Qiu Huachun drew out a dagger and threw it at him, impartially, piercing the puppet soldier's chest. The puppet soldier standing guard on the top of the other turret fired a shot at Qiu Huachun, Qiu Huachun rolled on the spot, and while dodging the bullet, a dagger pierced the sentry's throat in the sun.

The puppet soldiers were sleeping, and the gunfire woke them up, but it was too late, the guerrillas had already stormed the turret, and these puppet soldiers who had not yet woken up had to obediently raise their hands and surrender. The battle ended in less than ten minutes. Of the two turrets, all but four of the sentries were killed, and the rest became prisoners. The guns, ammunition and food in the turret were all owned by the guerrillas.

In the direction of the devil's camp in the center of the town, there was a dense burst of gunfire. Qiu Huachun left a few soldiers to guard the prisoners, led most of the guerrillas in the first platoon, and rushed to the aid of the second platoon led by Xin Yuan. (To be continued......)
