Chapter 13: Changing Guards (13)

Night, the same night, because people are different, the night is different. Li Shigui on the southern line slept very peacefully, walked for a day, and was harassed three times, and the iron man would also be tired. The puppet 10th Brigade on the northern front also slept soundly, the dead were already dead on the other side of the pontoon, and those who were not dead could not cross the river, and they were safe for the time being. In the past, the materials were basically exhausted when the pontoon bridge was built, but now it is necessary to continue a section, and it is not an ordinary difficulty to find materials. The puppet army doubled the search area, and finally found some materials to tie the pontoon bridge, and when they concentrated on the big wharf, it was already the east mountain of the moon. Gong Qingyuan slept well, and his opponent was across the river, you can't come, and I won't go over, everyone is safe. The Mo Di of the mud river also slept well, the poon choi tasted good, and he sent a little wine, just to help him sleep.

It was the Eastern Front that slept badly, Li Benyi didn't sleep well, the Japanese army arrived at Qifengling, which was not far from the ambush circle, and the side of the couch could not allow others to sleep soundly, since Cheng Xin didn't want others to sleep, he definitely couldn't sleep well.

Liu Qinglong also couldn't sleep well, relying on the distance closer than Qifengling, he took the lead to the battlefield, and after taking the Japanese army by surprise, the Japanese army retreated passively, and Liu Qinglong and Zhao Xueliang joined forces victoriously. But the good days didn't last long, just when Liu Qinglong cleaned up the battlefield and made dinner ready to eat, the Japanese reinforcements from Qifengling arrived, and as soon as they joined the retreating Japanese army, they decided to attack Liu Qinglong. So Liu Qinglong was tragic, in a state of complete unpreparedness, Liu Qinglong's department was taken by surprise, threw away the freshly cooked meal, and ran away, scattering birds and beasts. Fortunately, the Japanese army did not pursue, and after eating the meal prepared for them by Liu Qinglong's department, they returned to help Shengqiao. Liu Qinglong's department finally gathered, checked the number of people, half of a regiment was missing, hungry and found a random place to cat for a night, planning to return to Yefu Mountain at dawn tomorrow.

There is also a group of people who can't sleep well, that is, Shi Chong. After solving the transport team from Chaoxian, Shi Chong immediately led Zhao Sheng'an's assault company, Liu Wukui's heavy firepower company and Panlong's spy company to leave the mud river in a row, and they wanted to rush to Yefu Mountain as quickly as possible, and strive to clean up the Japanese special forces before dawn tomorrow, after all, this opportunity to get replenishment is too precious and I don't want to give up.

From the mud river to Yefu Mountain, it is 60 miles, even in broad daylight, it takes six or seven hours to walk, and the time can only be longer when walking at night, but fortunately, there are enough flashlights in the guard battalion, and it is not a problem to rush to the night road. Shi Chong's plan was to arrive at Yefu Mountain before twelve o'clock, and Li Benyi's logistics department prepared a supper for them, and after three hours of rest, they went to Qifengling. Before dawn, do what you want to do.

After receiving the telegram from Mo Enemy, Li Benyi has not slept, waiting for Shi Chong's arrival, before eleven o'clock, he was surprised to find that Shi Chong had arrived, and asked Shi Zhong in surprise if he had a pair of scuds, Shi Zhong told him that it was not Scud, it was Hot Wheels. In Lujiang County, a few trucks were rented at a high price, and the road from Lujiang to Yefu Mountain was lazy. Li Ben smiled, the invincible person is wealthy.

While eating, I learned from the reconnaissance company of the 138th Division about the camping of the Japanese puppet army in Qifengling, although the reconnaissance company of the 138th Division has made great progress, but compared with Zhang Shenghu's reconnaissance company, there are still many gaps, but I still got a rough idea of what is needed. The camp of the Japanese puppet army in Qifengling was divided into three districts, one was the Japanese area, and there was also a Japanese infantry squadron, a transport squadron, a machine gun squadron, and two artillery squadrons. Hearing the two artillery squadrons, Shi Zhong was a little puzzled, most of the Japanese army had a 55-person artillery platoon, a 10-person platoon, a 15-person ammunition squad, and two 15-person artillery squads each equipped with a 70mm Type 92 infantry gun. Only a very small number of troops had a 122-man artillery battery, including a 27-man ammunition platoon, and two 31-man artillery platoons each armed with two infantry guns. This infantry brigade is actually a high-equipped artillery company, Shi Zhong clasped his fingers and calculated, walked three infantry squadrons, and there were no less than 600 people, this infantry artillery configuration is not weak, it seems that the 116th Division has signs of transformation into the main division. The Japanese military area is on the left, and on the right is Wang Zhanlin's three battalions, the number of which is quite large, more than 500 people, and there is an independent small camp at the foot of the mountain almost 800 meters away from the two camps, which does not have dealings with the two large battalions, mysterious and secretive, and the entry and exit management is extremely strict, and the people are not more than 100, and the military uniforms are also different from those of ordinary Japanese troops, and it is estimated that they are the so-called special forces. The reconnaissance company commander said as he pointed out a way to bypass the two large military camps from the back of Qifengling and directly kill the small battalions of the special forces.

"I'll take you." The commander of the reconnaissance company said: "I walked back and forth twice today, and I can find my way without a light." ”

"One more trip, it will be too hard for you!" Shi Zhong said.

"You guys came here from the muddy river, what is it for me to walk this way!" The reconnaissance company commander said: "If we clean up this group of Japanese soldiers, we will not be afraid of them tomorrow, and even if we fight hard, we will have a much better chance of surviving." ”

Li Ben nodded, he was still a little worried about the poison gas bomb, after all, it was famous and notorious. The reason why I would rather listen to Mo Enemy's advice and keep it for one more day is also because of my scruples about this gas bomb.

Looking at the map, Shi Zhong told Li Benyi that after cleaning up the Japanese special forces, he would lead his troops to retreat from the side of Qifengling to Baihu, and then turn to the mud river to rebuild, and no longer participate in the subsequent battles. Li Benyi believed that the Japanese puppet army, which did not possess poison gas bombs, was equal in number and roughly equal in force, and that he had a better chance of winning by waiting for his work. What's more, he was embarrassed to let Shi Chong, a tired army that fought continuously, participate in the subsequent battles, although he was also very enthusiastic about Liu Wukui's heavy firepower company configuration, with such a force to assist in the defense, it can be said that the result is twice the result with half the effort.

After a good night's sleep, he set off on time at three o'clock, with the assault company in front, the spy company in the center, and the heavy firepower company behind. Under the leadership of the brothers of the reconnaissance company of the 138th Division, the offensive and defensive formations were laid out, and Liu Wukui's heavy firepower company was inserted between the Japanese battalion and the special forces battalion, and a little improvised fortifications were built. The work of the assault company was very simple, Shi Zhong asked them to kill this small Japanese army in silence, hand it over to Panlong to clean up the battlefield, and then retreat quietly.

It's easier said than done, but it's not that simple.

It was a small farmhouse yard with a ring of tents on the flat land in front of the yard and a barn separated by carts. There were not many livestock, three mules and two horses, and five carts, and there was nothing on the cart, and it was estimated that all of them were moved into the yard. The courtyard wall of the courtyard is very high, there are front and back doors, the back door is closed, there is no clear whistle in the black linen, and the gate is wide open, not only hanging two dead lanterns, but also standing two bright whistles under the lanterns.

The Japanese special forces have an infantry squad, which is responsible for their vigilance, this group of conscientious Japanese soldiers, has become Zhao Sheng'an's biggest trouble, two bright sentry in the bright lantern, it is very simple to solve, but I don't know where there is a dark sentry, as for the mobile outpost, circle around the yard, turn around twice, will stop for five or six minutes, this is easier to do, as long as you master the law of time.

"This guy is really careless." Zhao Shengan said: "I'll scare the snake first and see if there is a secret whistle." ”

Shi Zhong shook his head and said, "Don't make any noise, this place is clear at a glance, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to arrange a secret whistle, so let people go to the back door first to see if they can open the back door." I estimate that the Japanese special forces are all in the courtyard, and the outside is a vigilant force. ”

Zhao Sheng'an confessed two sentences, only to see two black shadows around the back of the courtyard, taking advantage of the gap of the mobile whistle, throwing a small pebble, hitting the courtyard wall, the stone touched the wall, making a slight sound, if there is a dark whistle, there will definitely be a reaction, the result is very good, there is no movement around.

The black shadow rises and falls, squeezes out, and enters the back door hole, where most of the farmhouses are earthen walls, the walls are very thick, and the door hole is very deep. Reaching out and touching the double doors, one of the soldiers immediately took out the thin blade in his arms and stuffed it into the gap between the two door panels.

The single latch, this simple, gently swinging the blade, the latch slowly tossed aside, and the last whisper was heard, and the latch was opened. The two soldiers unbuttoned their pants, took out their tools for committing the crime, one to the left and the other to the right, and poured over the pivots on either side of the door. Rural doors, when opened and closed, most of them will make a squeak of wood rubbing against wood, if you want him not to call, the best way is to refuel, of course, the most convenient is to pee.

After urinating, the two soldiers quivered, gently pushed the door open, and got in, and when they gently closed the door panel, the mobile whistle had already appeared by the door.

Watching the mobile sentinel leave, even Deputy Zhang Chongshan did not wait for Zhao Sheng'an to greet him, and quickly entered the courtyard with a platoon, Shi Chong saw that in their hands, everyone was carrying a dagger with blood on their throats.

Zhao Shengan didn't say a word, let the second platoon be on the left and the third platoon on the right, responsible for guarding, once there was an accident inside, he immediately took action, rushed to the gate, and killed the guard team outside the yard as quickly as possible.

Shi Zhong felt more tired than doing it himself, and in the weather at the end of April, he was sweating.

After a while, someone came out and told Shi Zhong that there were no living people inside, and fifty-three Japanese soldiers were all killed. There are a lot of supplies, they don't dare to move, and they wait for the company commander to get them. Deputy Zhang Lian had already gathered a row at the door of the front door, and a few brothers had already climbed the courtyard wall, and all the M712 and small organs in their hands were opened.

Panlong beckoned, and all his men entered the back door. Next is the time of transportation, the first batch is wooden boxes, more than thirty wooden boxes, sent out, and drilled in. The second batch is protective clothing, more than 50 sets of protective clothing, this thing, Panlong regards as a treasure, and money can't buy it. The third batch was a bit disgusting, the backpack was okay, the clothes and leather shoes were peeled off from the dead devils, and some of them were stained with blood. Shi took a second look at the leather shoes, which were very different from the ordinary Japanese soldiers' clothing, with a half-waist, soft leather, and matching protective clothing.

As Zhang Chongshan withdrew with people, Shi Chong's heart returned to its original position. asked Liu Wukui to inform him that he came quietly and left quietly.

"It would be nice to get those carts and livestock, although there are not many things, but it is really tiring to carry." After walking two kilometers in one breath, Pan Long proposed to rest, he was tired, walked in the middle of the night, stole again in this tense state, and then walked about two kilometers with a weight in the pre-dawn darkness with one leg and one foot low.

There was a faint morning light in the east, Shi Zhong looked at the surrounding environment, and asked the scouts of the 138th Division, where is here? The scout looked at it and said that this place is called Laoba, and it has gone out of the small ridge, and from here to the south, it is the White Lake. Shi Zhong told the scouts that they would walk the way to the south, so there was no need to bother anymore, and asked them to return to the division headquarters and tell Li Shizuo that the mission had been completed and there was no need to worry about the Japanese army's special ammunition.
