Chapter 532: Tianjin Attack (2)

Therefore, the Dongjuzi Airport and Railway Station outside Tianjin are not as tightly guarded as Qiao Youhua expected.

After getting the news, Qiao Youhua thought about it for a while, and decided to personally go to the Dongjuzi Airport to reconnoitre, and then reconnoiter the situation on the spot in the base area to formulate an attack plan.

Hu Linger took the initiative to ask to go with Qiao Youhua, Qiao Youhua just needed a deputy, considering that Hu Ling'er was also good, he nodded and agreed.

However, before leaving, Hu Linger dressed up in disguise before coming to Qiao Youhua.

I saw Hu Linger change into men's clothes, with a white headscarf often wrapped by northern men tied to his head, but no matter how you look at her handsome face, she lacks some of the manliness that a northern man should have.

Hu Ling'er spun around on the spot, and provocatively snorted at Qiao Youhua and said in Wanhu's tone: "Brother Qiao, do you think I'm dressed up like this?" ”

Qiao Youhua couldn't help but smile a little: "It's really worthy of being my little Ling'er, it's tempting no matter how you wear it!" ”

Hu Ling'er glanced at him: "Military affairs are the main thing, Brother Qiao, don't indulge in women!" ”

…………

Half an hour later, Qiao Youhua and Hu Ling'er, disguised as two ordinary farmers, came to the vicinity of Dongjuzi Airport, which is located southeast of Tianjin.

At this time, this place has not been developed and utilized, far away from the urban area of Tianjin, the entire airport is in the wilderness, because the airport involves military secrets, the Japanese devils do not allow the people to plant crops and cultivate crops within 20 miles around the airport.

Therefore, the wilderness around the airport was full of wild grass and trees taller than people, providing natural cover for Qiao Youhua and them to conduct reconnaissance.

In addition, Qiao Youhua and Hu Linger also found that in the east, south, and west directions of the airport, there was a river that was not very wide.

Originally, this river was decided by the Qing government in the sixth year of Tongzhi (1866) of the Qing Dynasty: Chonghou, the minister of trade and commerce of Sankou, was responsible for preparing a machine for the production of guns and ammunition in Tianjin.

Chonghou first set up a machinery factory in Haiguang Temple, 3 miles south of Tianjin, to manufacture foreign guns and foreign cannons and small ships, commonly known as "Xiju Gun Factory".

In the next year (1867), Chonghou found 22 hectares of land near Jiajiagu Road in the east of the city, dug trenches around, built a wall of more than 1,500 zhang long, and built the gunpowder factory of Tianjin Machinery Bureau, also known as Tianjin Machinery and Machinery Bureau East Bureau, commonly known as "East Bureau".

At that time, the factory formed a rectangular city wall with a length of 390 zhang and a width of 250 zhang, with a defensive fort built at the corner of the city, surrounded by rivers on the east and south sides, and the original channel of the adjacent flood control and drainage river -- the Jiajiagu Road Diversion River (now the Crescent River) was widened and deepened to facilitate the transportation of military raw materials and finished products.

Later, because of the invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance, the Dongjuzi Ordnance Factory was destroyed in the war, and after it became a military airport, the wall around the airport has been mostly destroyed and disappeared after decades of wind and rain.

Due to the water of the moat in the southeast and southeast directions, a new river was dug in the west of the airport, so far, the Dongjuzi Airport has become surrounded by water on three sides, and one side is close to Tianjin City, which is only less than ten kilometers, which is conducive to the defensive situation.

In order to prevent people from sabotaging and attacking the airport, the devils have added another layer of power grid on the inside of the barbed wire, and there are devils patrolling back and forth in the grid from time to time.

Qiao Youhua and Hu Ling'er quietly approached from the south of the airport, and came to the grass outside a moat.

Suddenly, a sound of footsteps came from not far from the barbed wire, Qiao Youhua and Hu Ling'er immediately put away their binoculars and lowered their heads to hide.

An airport patrol of about twenty devils, with guns on their backs, walked through the power grid not far in front of them.

The two glanced at each other, and then moved to a location, continued to observe and monitor, and quietly noted down the interval between the arrival of the devil patrol and the number of troops.

Subsequently, Qiao Youhua and Hu Linger explored the entire airport again, and after noting them down one by one, they left the airport and rushed to the East Railway Station.

The so-called East Railway Station is a branch station of the Jinpu Railway and the South Manchurian Railway at an intersection in the Guannei Tianjin, and this railway branch line was built to connect the wharf in the east with the city of Tianjin.

With this railway, the goods, munitions and even troops transported from the Tianjin wharf can be boarded by train from the East Railway Station and transported by railway, north-south transfer, or transported to Beiping and the west of Beiping through the Pingjin Railway.

It is a very important transportation hub in Tianjin, but it is similar to the airport.

The Japanese army thought that Tianjin belonged to the rear of its own forces, and the East Railway Station was located in the middle of Tianjin Wharf and Tianjin City.

In such a background, anyone who eats the ambition leopard dare not come to attack the East Railway Station! This was the unanimous voice of all Japanese officers and soldiers at that time.

Coupled with Qiao Youhua's reconnaissance ability as a super soldier king, they easily completed the reconnaissance of the East Railway Station without exposing any traces.

…………

After completing the reconnaissance, Qiao Youhua and Hu Ling'er returned to the stronghold more than 20 kilometers away from Dongjuzi Airport, and when they arrived, it was already dark.

As soon as they returned to the secret stronghold, there were some barking dogs in the village outside, Qiao Youhua and Hu Ling'er were having dinner at the time, and soon an elite soldier in charge of vigilance came to report that Wan Hu had arrived.

As soon as the words fell, Wan Hu and Xiao Wu had already walked in from outside, they were ordered by Qiao Youhua to bring the Dragon Shadow Guard personnel out of Tianjin City again, preparing to carry out an attack and battle outside the city with Qiao Youhua.

Qiao Youhua hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks, stood up and greeted him: "Brother Wan, Xiao Wu, you are here." ”

The two of them hurriedly took the lead in saluting Qiao Youhua, and some of the Dragon Shadow Guards who followed behind them also followed suit.

Qiao Youhua smiled slightly and raised his hands and said, "Okay, you don't have to be too polite, how many people will you bring this time?" ”

Wan Hu immediately replied: "According to your orders, some of the brothers who were originally hidden in the city were brought out, and there are almost forty people together. ”

Qiao Youhua muttered: "I now have more than twenty people under my command, plus your more than forty people, nearly two platoons of troops, which is enough." ”

"Brother Qiao, have you already decided, whether to attack the East Bureau Airport or the East Railway Station?" Wan Hu asked.

Qiao Youhua said: "I went to the field with Ling'er today to investigate, and the situation I found was similar to that brought back by the people you sent.

The difference is that I found that the garrison at the East Station seems to be more lax, and there seem to be puppet soldiers such as military police and other soldiers among the guards, not all Japanese soldiers. ”

Wan Hu nodded and said: "That's right, after all, the Japanese devils regard the airport as much more important than the railway station, so the airport is full of devils in the garrison, and the East Railway Station is adjacent to the Tianjin Wharf, and it is not surprising that there are local ruffians and local police traitors and lackeys to assist in guarding and maintaining law and order." ”

Qiao Youhua nodded and said, "Well, it makes sense, I'll think about it on the way back, you and I will each lead a small team to attack the East Railway Station and the East Bureau Military Airport at the same time." ”

Wan Hu was a little surprised: "Brother Qiao, we only have more than 70 people in our hands, and the troops are divided into two routes, attacking two places at the same time, is it too scattered, the East Railway Station is fine, but the devils on the side of the East Bureau Airport, according to the information we have, there are at least 1,000 people."

And with well-established fortifications, we have too few people to dispatch, and I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed. ”

Qiao Youhua said: "It depends on what our purpose is in this battle, what kind of results we want to achieve, if we plan to completely paralyze the entire Dongjuzi Airport and destroy all the Japanese fighters and ground support facilities in this airport, then not to mention that our more than 70 soldiers are divided into two ways, even if another 100 people come, I am afraid it will be difficult to do it before the arrival of Japanese reinforcements."

If we only try to destroy a few Japanese planes and inflict as many casualties as possible on the enemy, then there is not much difference between the dispatch of more than 70 people and more than 30 people, and the number of people is smaller, but it will be easier to retreat. ”

Wan Hu nodded abruptly and said, "Oh, Brother Qiao, I understand when you say that, then you can give the order, we have no objections." ”

Qiao Youhua gave Hu Ling'er a look and said, "Bring the battle map." ”

Hu Ling'er naturally wouldn't flirt with Qiao Youhua anymore in front of outsiders, she was very businesslike, and quickly ordered a combat map to be taken off the wall and sent to Qiao Youhua and Wan Hu.

Qiao Youhua took the map, put it on the table nearby, and then pointed to the area of the East Bureau Airport and the East Railway Station above and said to Wan Hu: "Brother Wan, you see, with our current location, it is about thirty or forty miles away from the airport, and it is at least fifty miles away from the East Railway Station.

I plan to personally lead people to attack the East Bureau Airport, and the East Station will be handed over to you and Xiao Wu. ”

Wan Hu nodded happily and said, "No problem, I promise to complete the task, but Brother Qiao, I have a JianyΓ¬." ”

Qiao Youhua said: "Brother Wan, please speak." ”

"Go and attack the East Railway Station, blow up a section of the railway, kill a few devils and traitors, and don't bring too many people, in my opinion, thirty people is enough, and the remaining ten or so people will be left to you, you can keep it as a reserve, and it will be good to take you back when the time comes." Ten Thousand Tiger Road.

Qiao Youhua thought for a while and nodded: "It's okay, Brother Wan, Xiao Wu, you all have to remember that we don't have many troops at hand, so this attack and combat operation is aimed at retaliating against the Japanese invaders in terms of momentum and dampening their morale, and you don't have to care about the specific results."

Don't be too war-loving, fight if you can, kill as many as you can, if the situation doesn't allow, quickly get out of the fight and protect yourself. ”

"Yes!" Wan Hu and Xiao Wu suddenly stepped forward.
