Chapter 7: Rivers and Mountains (31)

The Japanese army really didn't get up late, and the whole convoy's station became lively as soon as the day came, and the horses and carts were used to feed the livestock, and the people had to eat two mouthfuls of hard food, and they had to walk dozens of miles a day, and they had no food in their stomachs, and their feet would tremble. It's just that there are too many people, organized and undisciplined, although they got up early in the morning, they rushed to the evening, and they didn't go on the road one after another until dawn, and the whole team was like a sheep, and the Japanese soldiers who were so anxious that they were escorted were so anxious that they screamed. Finally let the back grasp the front and so on, the team got together, has walked out of Gaohe Port for almost five miles, running before and after, drinking three or four, tired of escorting the Japanese soldiers than the livestock carrying supplies, standing in the rain straight out of the tongue.

The convoy finally had a little order, and the speed gradually came up, and there was a feeling of marching.

It's just that these things have nothing to do with the Japanese infantry brigade, which is divided into three squadrons, one in the front, one in the center, and one in the rear, with a clear division of labor and each taking its own responsibility. The Japanese soldiers were fully armed, still wearing standard raincoats, and did not wear steel helmets on their heads, the steel helmets were carried on their backs, together with their backpacks, and they were raised high, making every Japanese soldier look like a Luo pot, and from a distance, a group of Luo Guo was marching. It's weird. They don't manage the people, they just follow the convoy, and when the convoy is fast, they take a few steps closely, and when the convoy is slow, they also stand and wait. The rain flowed onto their raincoats and floated on their faces, and from time to time Japanese soldiers were seen rubbing their faces and throwing the water to the side.

Suddenly, a burst of gunfire rang out from a distance, and a row of bullets came, although there were only about 30 guns, but they were quite accurate, the bullets bit the flesh, and the guns hit the target, and the 30 or so soldiers of the Japanese infantry squadron marching at the front end of the transport team fell to the ground in response, most of them hit the body, and a few directly hit the head, and suddenly, blood flowed out, and with the rain, it flowed all over the ground.

The convoy immediately stopped, and after a short panic of the Japanese army's shouting, about two squads of Japanese soldiers began to rush out to the place where the shots were fired, and the Japanese soldiers in the running area pushed away the hats of their raincoats, took off their helmets from their backs, and put them on their heads.

"You know what to ask for!" Chen Zhengxin asked.

"Got it, battalion commander, let's go." Wei Qicai, the commander of the heavy firepower company, said anxiously: "We must kill this group of Japanese soldiers." ”

"Figured it out! It's not all killed, it's as much as possible, and it's only three minutes, and when the three minutes are over, they must be withdrawn, and they are not allowed to be entangled by the Japanese. Understood, no! Chen Zhengxin shouted.

"Understood!" Wei Qicai replied.

Chen Zhengxin left with his people, leaving only the heavy firepower company in the ambush position, and a platoon of the thin monkeys fired a cold shot two hundred meters away from the Japanese convoy, and then ran away, and deliberately let the Japanese see passing in front of the ambush circle of the heavy firepower company. Sure enough, it successfully attracted two squads of more than a hundred devils.

This was Chen Zhengxin's wishful thinking, which led away the Japanese infantry brigades in batches and wiped them out in batches.

The commander of the Japanese convoy was a very experienced devil officer, and when he saw that there was an attack, he also saw that the infantry brigade had already attacked, and knew that this was an empty battlefield, and ordered the convoy not to stop, but to move forward quickly, the job of the convoy was to transport rather than fight, and when the combat troops came into contact with the other side, it was often the safest time for the convoy.

The transport team was safe, but the two squads chasing after them stepped into the ghost gate. Wei Qicai's heavy firepower company, a total of eighteen crutches, thirty hand cannons, this kind of firepower against the two devils' squad, is really a bit of a chicken knife to kill, and when the Japanese all enter the ambush circle, the hand cannons are divided into two groups, one in front of the other and one after the other, and the eighteen crutches and bullets are denser than raindrops, and they are splashed on the Japanese soldiers in front of them.

The attack lasted less than three minutes, and Wei Qicai didn't care whether the Japanese in front of him were dead or alive, how many died, and how many were still alive, and shouted: "Withdraw!" ”

The whole company crawled and ran north, leaving only the devils who were injured to the severity of their injuries and howled helplessly at the dead devils who had no gas.

The Japanese rushed over another squadron, and instead of continuing the pursuit, they were frightened by the scene in front of them. These Japanese soldiers are all newly recruited recruits from Japan, and the education they receive is that as long as they go to China, they are absolutely invincible, and the Chinese are still in the stage of big swords and spears, and in front of the great imperial soldiers, there will be no resistance power, they will kill if they want to kill, they will rob if they want to rob, and they will be glorious imperial soldiers for several years, and they will return with glory. Unexpectedly, before they reached the battlefield, more than 100 people died, and a few younger Japanese soldiers actually cried.

"Don't cry, Bage!" The Japanese officer scolded.

The soldier hurriedly stood up and replied, "Hai! ”

I don't dare to cry on my face anymore, I can only cry in my heart. Pick up the wounded, carry the corpses, and return to the convoy.

After this battle, the transport team was already in the front, and the Japanese infantry brigade was left behind in order to deal with the aftermath. Just as they were gathering to get a simple farewell ceremony for the corpses of the jade-shattered Imperial soldiers, Nguyen Dong Sheng's * accurately fell on their heads.

It was only three rounds of shelling, and then there was no sound, and when the Japanese reacted, they could no longer hear the sound of artillery, only to see more corpses around them, and some more wounded soldiers.

The commander of the Japanese infantry brigade, a tall Japanese wearing the rank of Nakasa, drew the knife on his waist, slashed in the air a few times, let out a bad breath, and ordered an inventory.

Soon, the count was completed, and there were three attacks, in which a total of 131 people died, 48 people were seriously injured and could not walk, and 101 people were slightly injured. The attrition amounted to a third. Leaving a squad to take care of the wounded and deal with the dead soldiers, the other 400 people ran forward to chase the convoy, and the Japanese Nakasa knew very well that if the convoy was lost, they would die under the guns of the imperial military police, even if they did not die under the guns of the Chinese army.

"The Japanese army has divided its troops!" When Huang Tianhua heard the news, he shouted happily and said to Yang Kezhi: "If you get it again, this new ghost soldier will be almost the same, and there will only be a transport team of two hundred logistics soldiers, even if it is ours." ”

In less than an hour, the Japanese army reduced more than 300 people, Yang Kezhi was surprised, even Lin Yingjian and Hu Jiting behind him couldn't believe their ears, the Japanese would have such a useless time, maybe they saw their doubts, Huang Tianhua explained: "This is a group of recruits, the Japanese thought that let the supplementary soldiers send supplies, killing two birds with one stone, it turned out to be completely wrong, recruits are recruits, and they must learn to fight under the leadership of veterans. I haven't seen a soldier in the dot array, and no matter how strong it is, it's limited. We also saw this, so we dared to take the initiative to provoke them. Compared with them, both of our troops are veterans who have fought out, who have seen life and death, and after the battle formation, veterans beat novices, and that's it. When our regiment commander fights a war, he attaches great importance to the lives of his soldiers, not because he does not dare to sacrifice, but because he is afraid that there will be too many new recruits and not enough veterans, and his combat strength will drop seriously. ”

Lin Yingjian nodded and said: "We have expanded rapidly during this period, from more than 3,000 people when we were organized into four detachments last year to now, it has doubled, more than 6,000 people, many soldiers are farmers who have just put down their hoes, our seventh regiment, almost two-thirds of the old soldiers have been transferred out, and the people who have been added are all new soldiers, and the combat effectiveness has indeed been greatly affected." ”

Hu Jiting pulled Lin Yingjian's clothes hard and asked him not to tell his military secrets, Lin Yingjian pulled away his hand and said: "Don't pull it, this is not a secret, everyone should be open and honest when they fight devils together." He turned back to Huang Tianhua and said, "Deputy Huang Tuan, I think there is a second reason. ”

"Tell me." Huang Tianhua said.

"Equipment." Lin Yingjian said: "Our equipment is better than that of the enemy, we have artillery, which can attack from a distance, and the Japanese army is a supplementary force, with only 38 big covers, not even one more machine gun, and no hand cannons, compared with us, they are too much worse." ”

"Very right!" Huang Tianhua said: "To fight a war, one is to fight talents, and the other is to fight steel. If we are above the Japanese in both of these terms, the Japanese are no match for us at all. ”

This time, even Hu Jiting nodded involuntarily, thinking from the bottom of his heart that this Kuomintang reactionary officer really had two brushes.

After chatting together, it didn't take long for Chen Zhengxin to come from the intercom, and the second wave of ambushes had ended. This time, Chen Zhengxin used delay, he asked Luo Wei to bury * along the way, and the thin monkey used cold guns along the way, using delaying tactics to pull the Japanese infantry brigade to catch up with the pace of the transport brigade, so that Wei Qicai's heavy firepower company and Ruan Dongsheng's artillery company came to the predetermined position, and the next thing was a hard-hitting attack.

Under the threat of * and cold guns, the Japanese army walked more and more slowly, farther and farther away from the convoy, and when they finally passed through Luo Wei's * formation, they plunged into the cloth pocket.

First the hand guns, then the machine guns, when the Japanese were completely fixed in one area, the * of the artillery company joined in, and when the Thin Monkey assault company fired the bullets accurately at the Japanese soldiers, the morale of the Japanese broke down, and with a loud sound, they turned around and ran towards the wounded who had been left at the first attack.

Chen Zhengxin did not let the troops chase after him, but built fortifications in this place, to block the relieved Japanese infantry brigade on this side, and let the four detachments and seven regiments over there move to the transport team escorted by only one logistics squadron.

Knowing that the 1056th Regiment had properly handled the Japanese infantry brigade and that there was only one transport brigade in front of him, Yu Qilong, the commander of the second battalion of the seventh regiment of the fourth detachment, laughed and said: "This battle, Lao Tzu will fight!" ”
