Chapter 147: Real Guerrilla Warfare (1)
A military police brigade of seven hundred and fifty people, three squadrons of infantry, a cavalry search team and other squads, as well as a brigade headquarters. Strictly speaking, the gendarmerie is somewhat like an armed police, not a combat force. Whether in terms of equipment or training, it is completely incomparable with field divisions.
In the Japanese army, the gendarmerie brigade can be regarded as a third-rate unit, and its combat effectiveness is not stronger than that of the puppet army, and it only surpasses the puppet army in terms of fighting will. The puppet army must face the Chinese, and weakness of heart is the most conspicuous feature. As a traitor, the psychology of being a thief is weak, and he is simply unable to exert his due combat effectiveness.
On the battlefield of the army, the mental will and the psychology of victory and defeat are very important, and if you lose your courage without a fight, you will not be able to win the battle no matter what. In fact, in the war with Japan, China first lost in momentum, always feeling that it could not defeat the Japanese, they had planes, tanks and artillery.
If you have guts, you may not win, and if you don't have guts, you will definitely lose, this is an eternal truth, but guts are not something you can say at once, he must build on the basis of truth. The reason why the Snow Fox Brigade won the battle was that it first overwhelmed the Japanese army in terms of momentum.
Victory after victory has greatly increased Snow Fox's confidence, and Snow Fox doesn't care at all about the same number of Japanese troops, or slightly exceeding the strength of the army. This meeting in Dissolved Tree Town is very important to the Snow Fox Brigade.
Xue Ru was a little blindly trying to attack and regain fat, which made her realize that she was a little too arrogant, and then held a meeting to study it, and she better understood the seriousness of Zhang Hu's question.
Xue Ru changed his thinking and avoided the generation of pride, the so-called arrogant soldiers will be defeated, and the meeting in Rongshu Town was held for many days, and it was not to study tactical and strategic issues, but also to study ideological issues. Only then did it work out that in the future, Snow Fox would not fight with the Japanese army above the wing as a last resort to avoid losses, and it was not Snow Fox's style to exchange casualties for victory.
Originally, the number of Japanese troops was the same as that of Snow Fox, they were all one squadron in Jiulong Mine and Datong Mine, and it was also a squadron in Tianjia'an, plus more than 300 people in the brigade headquarters, according to Xiao Yong and Qiao Han's proposal, that is, Snow Fox was also separated, one squadron attacked Jiulong Mine, one squadron attacked Datong Mine, and the remaining two squadrons and brigade headquarters attacked Tianjia'an, the Japanese brigade headquarters.
With the same number of troops, everyone thought that they could win, but Xue Ru did not agree, and she adopted the lion and rabbit tactics. That is to strike at the Japanese army with superior forces, and strive to end the battle quickly in order to reduce its own casualties.
Dealing with one squadron of the Japanese army with three squadrons, leaving one squadron and the brigade headquarters to monitor the Japanese troops in other directions, even Liu Yuanshan thought that it was unnecessary, and the three locations were fought one by one, and the delay on the road would be very long, not faster than starting a battle at the same time, and it might take longer.
But Xue Ru's words made everyone not argue, Snow Fox's action was not to seize the Huainan coal mine, but to eliminate the Japanese army.
There is no regulation on how much to eliminate, take it when you see it, eliminate one by one, if it doesn't work, don't fight other places, evacuate first, unless the devil gives up the Huainan coal mine, otherwise the snow fox will come back at any time.
With this opinion, others no longer argue. Jiulong is a mining area, the closest to Bengbu, so the first target is here, which is also Xue Ru's opinion, before the first attack, the devil must not know. Although the Jiulong Mine is close to Bengbu, it takes time for the devil to know the news, so he can calmly eliminate the devil, then turn to the Datong Mine, and finally attack Tianjia'an.
According to this tactic, Snow Fox used the method of Anfeng Town to lurk in Shuangqiao for another day, and after dark, it went straight to the Kowloon mining area occupied by the Japanese army from the path.
This is a small village, which was not famous at first, but after the General Administration of Mines of the National Government identified the mineral deposits here more than ten years ago, it invested in the construction of coal mines, making Kowloon also famous. Where there were factories, there were workers, and the number of people gathered around began to increase, forming a small village.
After the Japanese army seized the Kowloon Mine with this as the center, in order to prevent the miners from escaping, they fenced it with barbed wire around it, and a large area of low sheds was a resting place for the miners, and there was barbed wire around the mouth of the mine. A squadron of the Japanese military police was located in Jiulong Village, and the usual management was carried out by the Mine Police and the Security Force.
There are less than 200 people in the mining police team, which is actually a puppet army, but the captain is Japanese, and the security team is the head and supervisor, all of whom are traitors and hooligans. Led by Wang Fushun, the leader of the local Green Gang, they are the most ferocious people here.
The Japanese do not directly manage the miners, and they are managed by these people in the security forces, and the chief of the coal mine tells them. In order to curry favor with the Japanese devils, these shameless and inhuman guys are more fierce than the devils, and they also arrest people everywhere to supplement the labor force.
Of course, the life of the miners is worse than death, eating moldy grain, and working under the mine every day. The Japanese do not care about the lives or deaths of these Chinese, they only care about how much coal can be produced and how to explain to the Japanese command.
In order to show the correctness of Japan's aggression and to conceal their true nature, the North China Front and the Central China Front asked the Japanese Miki Company and the Mitsui Company to find local people and people from the former mining companies to set up the so-called United Coal Company, but it was stipulated that the coal could only be sold to Japan, the price was determined by the Japanese, and the profits were divided between the Japanese and the Japanese, and 70 percent went to the Japanese.
China's minerals, the Chinese work, the price is set by Japan, the goods have to be sold to Japan, but the Chinese side can only share 30 percent, this is also called cooperation? In Japan, Mitsui represents Mitsui Yoshi, which is already good, otherwise it is all Japanese.
In this way, it can only squeeze Chinese miners and reduce costs. The mine was miserable at the beginning, and people died almost every day. It was this environment that reminded Xue Ru of a term that everyone knew in later generations when he heard Wei Ming's report: "mass grave." ”
The hatred and anger in her heart made her decide that this was the first place for Snow Fox to strike. Several Snow Fox officers at the meeting unanimously agreed, even if they couldn't get anything from the Huainan Coal Mine, then they must fight here.
In Liu Yuanshan and Lai Changwen's opinion, the devils should be killed, and those traitors should be killed, since there are two hundred mine police teams, and sixty or seventy security teams plus a squadron of devils, there are quite a few people, so they agree with Xue Ru's tactics, fight without dividing troops, concentrate forces, and solve them one by one.
This time, can the devil not be unlucky? The Snow Fox Brigade dared to face a wing of the Japanese army, and a brigade was no problem at all, but there was only one squadron of devils here, and it was still a third-rate gendarmerie, and in terms of the three squadron leaders who attacked, the more than 200 mine police teams could be treated as if they did not exist.
Three squadrons approached the Japanese garrison from three sides in the darkness of the night. The mine police team was in the mine, and the devil gendarmes were in the village, and carelessness was an important issue in the defeat of the Japanese army.
Wu Youcheng of Anfeng Town thought about it again and again, but he didn't dare to report it to the devil. Snow Fox will come back, if he reports, the devil spared him, but can Snow Fox spare him?
Anyway, the devil didn't know, after the snow fox left, the people in the town discussed it with the security captain, and they treated it as if nothing had happened, and no one would mention it in the future. Even these people don't talk about these maintenance associations, and ordinary people can't figure out what's going on, what to say.
Therefore, the Japanese army did not know about the operation of the snow fox, what were they guarding against? Looking at the barbed wire in front and the sentry post on the corner, Xiao Yong, who was in charge of the frontal attack, secretly decided that there could be no more problems this time. Xue Ru also specially warned him that he could not underestimate the enemy just because the Japanese army was small, even if it was a devil, he had to do his best.
He said calmly: "The first squad sent people to snipe the watchtowers on both sides and kill them as soon as possible, the second squad blew up the barbed wire, killed them directly, and found the telephone line, so that the devils could not contact the outside, and the third squad rushed all the people, except for the miners, together, and killed those who resisted." ”
The three squad leaders nodded to show that they understood, and in the dark night, the troops scattered and approached the mining area around the Japanese wire, and the snow fox was indeed cautious, because there was only one squadron of devils and two hundred mine police teams, and they were so careful when dealing with a wing before.
In half an hour, the first squadron was finally in place, but it was still early according to the specified time, in order to prevent the devils from running, they needed to attack from three sides, and surrounded the devils inside, Xiao Yong stared at the pocket watch in his hand, watching the pointer move forward slowly, and felt that it was too slow. In my heart, I told myself to be steady and steady, and I couldn't make mistakes again.
The time finally came, in fact, Xue Ru was a little too careful, Xiao Yong and when they arrived at the position, Qiao Han and Dai Wensheng also entered the position, and they were all waiting for time. Xiao Yong picked up a rifle, looked at the Demoman who was hiding from the searchlight in the dark and approaching the barbed wire, pulled the trigger, and with a bang, the searchlight went out.
At the same time, two other searchlights were extinguished, and the sentries standing on the high watchtower also fell with the sound of gunfire. The sound of gunfire was an order, a booming explosion was heard, a gap was blown open in the annular barbed wire fence fixed by the Japanese stakes, and the first squadron rushed in, with spears in hand bayonets and pistolmen guns in hand, in groups of four, scattered and rushed forward.
At this time, the mining area was in chaos, and it was suddenly hit, and the Japanese squadron leader Kawasaki Ichiro did not understand what was going on. The gunfire was not very serious, but the explosion was violent, and there were sounds from three sides, so that he didn't know which side to attack for a while.
At this time, it was obvious that it was no longer possible, and those mine police and security teams were all running around with their heads in their hands, and they didn't shoot back at all. However, people are not as fast as bullets, so they can run somebody to this side, and some people to run to that side, so they have to run to the middle.
The devil also wants to fight back, but his combat effectiveness is not as good as others, except for the end of being knocked down, there is nothing else, and he is constantly retreating. The mine chief and Yuzo got up, and when they understood what was going on, they ran out to call and ask the team headquarters for help.
But he didn't attack as fast as the attackers, Xiao Yong ordered the first time to control the outward contact, Qiao Han They also ordered this, * flew into the small house, let alone make a phone call, even Kawasaki Ichiro's life was gone, the battle was a dry and decaying, only twenty minutes, the remnants of the Japanese soldiers, the mine police team and the security team were surrounded in the middle. Looking at these troops around him, the leader of the devil squad didn't know who it was. With a gun in his hand, he looked at these people outside in horror. Some of the mine police and security teams wanted to surrender, but there were Japanese around them, and they didn't dare.
How many Japanese troops there were, how many mine police teams there were, Snow Fox didn't know, but there were more than 200 people surrounded in the middle. Xue Ru and Liu Yuanshan came in, and Dai Zong asked, "Miss, what should I do?" Let them lay down their arms? ”
Xue Ru knew that the time was very tight, whether he ran out at night or not, no one knew, once the devil knew the news, it was not terrible to be prepared, but worried about the reinforcements of the Japanese army in Bengbu. "Shoot and kill, send someone to blow up the mine and equipment, notify the miners, and let them go home." ”
Ruthless, indeed ruthless enough, Xue Ru, who was crying and crying yesterday, turned her face and became so fierce again. In fact, Liu Yuanshan didn't know that Xue Ru's crying was not because of Xiao Yong's affairs, but because of the longing for his parents in that life and the painful release in his heart. There was already an indignant thought, and seeing the situation here, Xue Ru's heart was somewhat distorted, she wanted to kill all these people, and she did not have a good feeling for those people from the mine police team who were mixed with the devils, and did not treat them as Chinese, and gave the order to kill them all.
Whether it was the devil who was surrounded in the middle or the mine police team, they definitely did not expect that they would be greeted by bullets, and in the face of such a situation, either side would persuade them to lay down their arms and surrender. But they were wrong, because it was the Snow Fox Brigade that surrounded them.
The leader of the devil squadron is still thinking that he is the Great Japanese Imperial Army and will not surrender, but people don't need you to surrender at all, pistols, rifles, and machine guns fire together, and when the devils and the people of the mine police team understand it, it will be too late to resist again.
In just a few minutes, everyone fell to the ground, and Liu Yuanshan watched Xue Ru turn his head around, knowing that Xue Ru still couldn't bear it after all. To Qiao Han, they said: "Quick, clean up the battlefield, blow up the coal mine and equipment, be fast." ”
The three squadrons left some people to check the bodies, and the Japanese soldiers who did not die provided replenishment guns, and those Chinese who did not die had no one to care about them, whether they could die or not, that was to see his creation. Xue Ru is indeed a little unbearable, if there are all devils in this, she will not be like this, after all, most of them are Chinese.
She said to Lai Changwen beside her: "Send someone to load all the money and loot into the car, Sari, I see how many cars there are, drive away together." ”
Ouyang Sari, a stand-up, with his own guard team began his scraping operation, of course, all the useful things were loaded into the car, there is a lot of gasoline here, he has always wanted to have a mechanical force again, he doesn't want to throw away, these things are too precious, use one car to load gasoline, other cars to load things, explosions began to appear in the distance.
"Miss, this person is looking for you." Zhang Zhong came over and led a person, dressed in tatters, and he couldn't tell his age, and there were forty or fifty people behind him. Xue Ru asked, "What are you looking for me?" Didn't I already have someone pay you to get home? ”
The man suddenly gave a military salute: "Report to the sir, we are prisoners of war, and we were brought here by devils to mine." What kind of troops are you? Can I join you and fight against Japan together? ”
Xue Ru looked at him and said: "The National Revolutionary Army, the Snow Fox Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Brigade, since you are prisoners of war of the National Army, then you should return to the team, you don't have to join us." ”
This person looked at Xue Ru in a daze, Snow Fox Brigade? As soon as you hear the name, it is not a regular army. When these people rushed in, the miners were all lying on the ground, and none of them came out, and no matter who came in, they all had a grudge against the Japanese. They all want to kill devils, how can they get out? The time of the battle stopped for a while, and when these miners came out, they saw a strange military uniform, and they didn't know what troops, but they could see that they were not armed bandits.
The person in the lead was the company commander, and these people behind him were all prisoner of war brothers he had contacted, and he had this opportunity, and of course he wanted to join these troops. Liu Wenyu originally thought that he was a soldier of the national army, and these people must keep him, but he was rejected by the other party. This has never happened before, and I feel angry. Snow Fox, when I heard the name, it was not a regular army, but it was so awesome. As soon as he got angry, he turned around and said, "Brothers, let's do it ourselves, let's go." ”
"Stop," Xue Ru said with her mouth open. Liu Wenyu turned to look at Xue Ru, thinking that she had changed her mind. Xue Ru said: "Wenxiu, give them some guns and bullets, and we will withdraw." ”
These people are a little stunned, people don't want it, it must be that they don't believe in themselves, but why do they still give them guns and bullets? Ordered Zhao Wufu.
Li Wenxiu followed Xue Ru and said, "Miss, there are not many of us, they are soldiers of the national army, they are better than the people, why don't you want them?" ”
Actually, what Li Wenxiu asked was also what Lai Changwen wanted to ask, although the meeting was to study the elite route, but it was not a person who didn't want it, why did the young lady refuse?
Xue Ru said: "Three reasons, first, they were captured on the battlefield, which proves that they are not strong-willed people, although they were captured for various reasons, but they were able to work in the mine and did not resist, either they were not prepared, or they were afraid of death." Second, when we rushed in, they fought for more than 20 minutes, and they hid in the shed and did not come out, proving that they did not seize the opportunity to resist, and they were not brave people. Third, we didn't come out until we sent people back to participate, which was a bit late. Another point, we don't know them, and we don't have time to train them, there will be a battle soon, and leaving them will be sent to death, and they have already returned their freedom, and they want to resist the war, and there are many places, so there is no need to join us. ”
Lai Changwen said: "In such a short time, I can think so much, admire, admire." ”
Xue Ru glared at him: "Don't pat yourself on the back, get out of here quickly, and go to Datong Mine, I don't know if the devil knows the letter." Ordered the troops to run forward, attack the Chase mine before dawn, and retreat after finishing the work. ”
Liu Yuanshan asked, "What about Tianjia'an?" Don't fight? ”
Xue Ru said: "I'm afraid it's too late, if we hit Tianjia'an, I'm afraid we won't get anything, and we won't be able to take anything away, act." ”
It's really fast enough, this is a mining area, and there are really a lot of devils' cars, a little better, a little newer can have five cars, and the other dilapidated cars, of course, are given one*.
With the mines exploding behind them, the Snow Fox Brigade had already left the Kowloon Mine with loot and cars and headed for the Datong Mine. Run along the way because time is running out. First, I am afraid that the devil will know, and second, I must enter the Datong mine before dawn.
