Chapter 223 The first section of the horse wheel battle with a piece of felt
Wumen Village became a shelter point for the Japanese army's temporary airstrip, which made Yang Bangzi very annoyed, because the mountain beams on both sides of the horse post were controlled by the Japanese army, and the little devil was busy for two days and was pulling the grinder, padding the stone and ramming, and the soldiers who were in charge of monitoring the devil from a distance thought that the devil was building fortifications, so they reported that the devil was repairing the fortifications.
When it was found that the small plane with wings had landed, it was quickly reported to Yang Bangzi, who bypassed the south side of the horse post and went to Gegou Village from the west that day, where the Toad Mountain is the highest point in this area, and the mountain of Wumen Village is far away, and the situation in the valley can be basically seen with a telescope.
Isn't that what you see! In the afternoon, the reconnaissance plane of this kind of little devil that Yang Bangzi was familiar with took off and landed five times! What are the devils doing with this kind of small plane, and they can't see clearly because of the distance and the mountain beams covering it, so after thinking about it for a while, they shouted to the person in charge of the first detachment of the teaching brigade and the Baishishan guerrillas in Xipotai to the toad mountain, and arranged two tasks in Gegou Village.
First, it is required to send scouts to pass through the devil's defense line and go out at close range to the vicinity of the devil's plane's take-off and landing place, so as to reconnoiter what the devil's plane is doing. In addition, by the way, check out the devils in the town in the valley, how are they arranged?
The second is not to let the devils in Wumen Village just guard the hill so idly and cover the aircraft providers, but they have to find a way to beat the devils, probe the truth, and prepare for the large army to recapture Wumen Village.
The second task was well completed, Xipotai and Wumen Village were separated by a ravine, less than five miles away, and the terrain was very familiar, so the first detachment of the teaching brigade decided that they would come to a frontal feint, and let the Baishishan guerrillas go around the back of the village from the rotten foot ditch on the east side of Wumen Village, climb up from the stone cliff, and see what the Japanese position on this platform was like.
But the first task is not easy to complete. The north side of the post is different from the south, and the south side does not look at the wide river beach, but there are many surrounding cliffs, and the earth platform and earth beam are everywhere. It's just the middle of the river beach that hits out of the open field. Wherever you hide on the earthen platform, you can see the situation at the confluence of the two rivers.
To the north is a narrow valley that runs from the north end of the town to the village of Wumen. On both sides were continuous mountain beams, all occupied by the Japanese army, and even if they touched the devil's defense line, there was nothing to hide in the narrow valley. It's the edge of the airstrip where the devil is heavily guarded, how can you hide it and come back after reconnaissance?
After pondering and pondering, Yang Bangzi decided to select two warriors, who must be familiar with the terrain around the Horse Station, preferably locals, and then the feint attack on the side of Wumen Village must be fierce and realistic, so as to attract the defense of the entire Horse Walker Devil. Taking advantage of the panic when the devil was attacked, and letting the scouts in, Yang Bangzi woke up, he remembered the time when he recovered Zoumayi Town. The devil's plane blew up the whole town and burned it, and the unrecognizable dead people who were collected and carried out at that time were buried in a depression at the north end of the town, and there were many graves on the mountain side on the west side.
Not to mention, there are indeed two families in the first detachment of the teaching brigade that are walking in the horse post, wasn't the horse post occupied by the devil at the beginning, most of the villagers have withdrawn into the mountains in the west, after Yang Bangzi recovered the town, many young and middle-aged people who walked the horse post participated in his 20th regiment.
When I asked these two soldiers, there was indeed a depression at the foot of the mountain at the north end of the town, where the graves of the desperate and the righteous were all there, and the dozens of people who were killed and burned by the devil's plane more than two years ago were also buried there.
Yang Bangzi estimated that the little devil would not go to the graveyard at the foot of the mountain, and if he could lurk there, he would definitely be able to see the situation on the runway, so he and the two fighters studied the way to lurk.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was only in the afternoon, Yang Bangzi went from Gegou Village to the hill west of Wumen Village, where the enemy and us were facing each other, and then from here along the outside of the devil's defense line, all the way to the Tang family's garden, and finally decided to let the two soldiers touch in the middle of the devil's defense line.
Just do it, the two soldiers made preparations in the Tang Family Garden, changed into a coat of white blank cloth, and leggings tied with white cloth, put on cotton shoes with white pulp and felt pads, and replaced the spear with a short gun, except for weapons and ammunition and dry food bags and water bottles, Yang Stick looked at it, and asked no one to bring a piece of felt, rolled it up and carried it on his back.
Don't look at the cotton clothes and pants, this night is a low temperature of minus ten degrees, lurking reconnaissance, and can't make a fire to keep warm, the felt is basically yellow-white, it is not easy to distinguish between the snow and the mountains, draped on the body or under the body, can block the wind and cold.
When it was almost dark, the two scouts were about to leave for the vicinity of Shanhuozi, and before leaving, Yang Bangzi also specially instructed them to deal with the footprints well! The place you walked in the snow must be covered with snow again, otherwise your whereabouts will be exposed before you can reconnoitre.
At eleven o'clock in the night, a dazzling fire suddenly burst out in the northeast direction, and the fierce gunfire came like the rumbling of wheels on the mountain road, and the battle on the side of Wumen Village started on time!
After the two scouts saluted Yang Bangzi, they turned around and touched along the soil slope to the side of the mountain, Yang Bangzi lay on the slope edge, stared at the cliffs on both sides of the mountain, and looked at the snow under the cliff after a while, and gradually no longer saw the two scouts, and then returned to the Tang family garden with Xiaoliangzi.
There has been no movement on the side of Shanhuozi, and after waiting for an hour, there is no shooting or activity on the Japanese position, it is estimated that the scouts have entered safely, and at the same time the battle on the side of Wumen Village is still continuing, and the feint attack of the first detachment of the teaching brigade is quite decent.
This was tantamount to tearing a small hole in the outer defense line of the Japanese army, and now the devils in Wumen Village were in a hurry, and they did not blindly hide in the fortifications and fire guns, but sent two troops from the platform and the mountain on the west side, both numbering about 100 people, in an attempt to attack from the east and west, and flank the eight roads on the edge of the valley.
After fighting for more than 20 minutes, occupying the eighth road of a few small mounds on the edge of the valley, after resisting for a while, they took the initiative to retreat.
After a while, Yang Bangzi of Tangjia Garden heard a report from the phone, the Baishi Mountain guerrillas touched into the rotten foot ditch in the east of Wumen Village, and sure enough, they didn't find any devils defending the cliff behind the platform, and there was also a ravine between this and the mountain beam on the east side of the horse post, and there were devils defending the place where the ravine and the platform were connected.
The guerrillas who touched the cliff behind the platform of Wumen Village, and then saw the general deployment and strength of the devils in the light of the fire, and there were almost more than 200 devils on the platform alone, divided into three lines of defense, the first was on the north side of the platform and the side of the west slope platform to confront each other, the second was along the half of the platform along the first line of Wumen Village, and the third line of defense was not far from the back cliff.
Yang Bangzi told the first detachment of the teaching brigade to organize a few feints if there is nothing to do, day and night, but don't move the dark road of the back cliff and rotten foot ditch! He is to keep it and it will be of great use.
A day and a night have passed in anxiety, Yang Bangzi is usually very arrogant, sometimes very unruly, especially for political cadres and superiors, quite a posture that Lao Tzu has a gun and no one pees, but he can only describe his subordinates, especially those most ordinary soldiers, in one word - "good!" ”
The two scouts did not come back for a day and a night, Yang Bangzi did not wait for news in the Tang family garden, and had to rush back to Chuankou Town, he simply left Xiaoliangzi behind, let him take a few people to guard Shanhuozi, and immediately notified him as soon as there was news, so he rushed back to Chuankou Town overnight.
The military region also has new instructions for the devils who besiege the horse post, and a few days ago, the organs of the division were transferred from Shangzhai to Chuankou Town, and in winter, Yang Bangzi still felt that it was better to keep these organs closer to the main force.
