In fact, the operation of the Tang family garden is a tentative attack, these days in the horse post, can only vaguely feel that there are eight roads around, but you can't see or touch people, Qing Shui deployed to build a position on the north bank of the Tang River for the sake of security on the south side, at the same time he wants to also send a force to the west to feint to see what the reaction of the eight roads is.

This time I tried it out, it was not obvious, but as soon as the devil wanted to occupy the village or something, the killer trick could be used, judging from the attack suffered by the troops sent to the Tang family's garden, it was just some dirt tricks, Qing Shui understood that his real enemy had not yet shown up!

The General Staff Headquarters in Peiping has officially sent him a mission to solicit his opinions, and the top echelons of the North China Front have reached a preliminary consensus that the special operations wing around Qingshui will conduct an unprecedented winter operation.

Because Shimizu Dazuo was an officer transferred from the northeast, he fought against the Anti-Japanese Union in the ice and snow when he was a junior officer, and he invented the tactics of forming a small group of rapid field troops to closely pursue the Anti-Japanese Alliance.

The headquarters of the Japanese army has also repeatedly studied that in the past, this practice of fighting for half a year and then resting for half a year not only could not exterminate the Eighth Route Army and the anti-Japanese armed forces in North China, but left the Eighth Route in the mountainous areas for a few months of rest and recuperation, and when the Japanese army swept again after the weather improved, the Eighth Route also happened to replenish the troops, rested and recuperated and waited for the Japanese army's sweep.

Therefore, Senior General Okamura Ninji wanted to make use of Shimizu Daisa's experience in winter operations and the extraordinary combat effectiveness and endurance of the special operations wing to station in the hinterland of the Eighth Road's base area, and the contained Eighth Route could not be properly integrated and replenished in winter, so that as soon as the time came in the spring of the coming year, he could give a comprehensive blow to the tired Eighth Road.

But Shimizu Daisa's winter combat experience was the experience of pursuit, not the experience of garrisoning. At that time, the Japanese army's field search team used horse-drawn plows to load personnel and supplies, and woodcutters selected from Hokkaido served as soldiers, chasing the resistance in the mountains and dense forests. It can be said that it is a special force with high self-sustaining power and high field tracking skills, focusing on mobility and endurance in continuous combat.

But this mission is to be stationed in the mountains alone and helpless in the bitter cold, and to hold on for several months, which is not only a physical torture for the devils, but also a great test for the spirit! Let's not forget, the army of the little devils is a force that attaches great importance to supply lines, leaving the roads and railways like a suckling child who is suddenly weaned!

The officers are better, what about the soldiers? Surrounded on all sides, this kind of garrison mentality that the field troops had never faced was an unusually serious problem for all soldiers. And Shimizu Daisa's consideration is not to let the soldiers idle to face this dilemma, once people are idle, they will think about this and that, and there will be more troubles, so that the soldiers will feel the crisis all the time, and in order to save their lives, they must take the initiative to build fortifications and attack.

Take the horse post as the central point. The six surrounding villages became the support points that had to be controlled, and it was also a way to keep the soldiers moving and complaining.

The soldiers of the special operations wing had already guessed through all kinds of rumors that they were going to spend the winter in this big ravine, and their indignation and incomprehension did cause a lot of commotion at first, and many veterans who were supposed to retire this summer even colluded privately to make trouble with the officers, and even many officers were dissatisfied with the order to be stationed.

It's all about trouble. But the reality is here, if you want to go, you can, go by yourself, the nearest Laiyuan County is also more than 200 miles away, and the ice and snow are coupled with the surrounding Eighth Route Army. If you don't starve to death and freeze to death on the road, you have to be wiped out by the eight roads one by one on the road, veterans are veterans, and they have been paralyzed into machines by bushido for a long time in the army, and they will break up after sulking in the field, the officers are right. If you want to go, you have to be able to walk!

At present, it is better to stay with the big guy, and the whole wing can have hope of getting out of the mountains alive when they are together, based on this, Shimizu Daizo has passed the first difficulty of being stationed, and the problem of people is solved.

The problem of food supply is the number one difficulty, and this Qing Shui has not yet faced a difficulty, after all, the plane is not a piece of paper or something, or the airdrop has been successful, which shows that the airdrop is still hopeful, so he decided to take the initiative and do a good job of defense first.

The first support point to be fought for is Miaogoumen Village on the south bank of the Tang River, this village is built on the platform on the south bank, backed by the mountains, overlooking the river valley, the strategic position is extremely important, it is equivalent to blocking the south of the river valley and the east to the road to the Maguan, if you want to have a more comfortable room for maneuver in the horse post, you must take the Miaogoumen Village area.

Therefore, Shimizu Dazuo ordered to excavate fortifications along the open area facing the Tang River in the south of the Zoumayi, and first build a complete riverbank defense system.

In addition to sending a squadron to the Tang Family Garden in the west to feel the way, Qing Shui also prepared a troop, these more than 200 devils were in the town before dark, and only after dark did they feel the darkness out of the town to the garrison position on the north bank that had not yet been completed, Qing Shui Xiang used the illusion that the Japanese army was going to defend the riverbank, and sent troops to attack Miaogoumen!

In the middle of the night, more than two hundred devils quietly came out of the river bank fortifications, wading through the cold and biting river water, moving to the south bank step by step in the waist-deep river water, not to mention the eight roads, I don't know if it is not on the south bank, or sleeping too dead, the river surface of a hundred meters wide is almost crossed, and there is no movement in the area of Miaogou Gate.

The wet shoes of the soldiers at the front have already stepped on the land on the south bank, the ice stubble by the river is clattering, and in the silent night, the devils are about to all go ashore!

Suddenly in the night a dog barked, two! Three of a kind! Gojo! Ten of a kind! I don't know how many dogs barked! All at once, the quiet night sky was also a mess!

Shimizu Daisa, who was watching the battle on the north shore, felt a burst of heat on his back, and scolded in his heart, where did this dog come from! If you don't call it in the morning or at night, you just called it after your subordinates crossed the river!

From the south bank of the river to the platform of Miaogoumen Village, in the middle is a large open land, is the West River into the Tang River for many years to impact out of the small alluvial plain, more than 500 meters long, nearly two kilometers wide, the devils must pass through this more than 500 meters long flat land to rush to Miaogoumen Village.

Originally, I wanted to quietly use the night to touch the platform outside the village, and then rush up in one go, and use the tactics of a surprise attack to catch me off guard, in the case of absolute superiority in firepower, Qing Shui is still very confident in his subordinates in close combat, but now the sneak attack is not good, as soon as such a dog barks, even those who sleep and die have to be woken up!

Where did the dogs come from? In these years, people can't eat or wear, few families still have dogs, and when they hear the movement of dogs, there are not a few, how can there be dozens!

This is a wild dog, it is said that wild dogs were all domestic dogs at the beginning, because the devils swept into the mountains, killed people and burned houses, so that many dogs in the mountains became lost dogs, and when they got together, they became wild dogs.

As I said earlier, many of the soldiers who died in the rear hospital of the Eighth Route Army were dug out and eaten by this wild dog after being buried, and the wild dog even dared to attack single people in broad daylight.

This time, the wild dogs smelled blood, and the Qingshui Wing broke through from the area of the Dragon King Temple to the north, and the dead soldiers along the way were hastily buried, so they provided food for the wild dogs, and the enemy and us didn't fight a few battles on the south bank of the Tang River, and the wild dogs ran here after the smell of blood.

After all, it is still a dog raised by Chinese, even if it becomes a wild dog, it is still a Chinese dog, and as soon as I heard the movement of the little devil's big-toed shoes stepping on the ice, the group of dogs began to bark! This is a message to the eight roads on the terrace!
