Shuiquan Village is a village less than 20 miles away from Laiyuan County, and it takes up to three hours to reach the county seat by a rapid march. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the same time, Shuiquan Village is also the only way from Laiyuan to Lingqiu.

Although the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region ended in failure, the devils who withdrew from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region did not give up on the occupied county seats.

When the Japanese army retreated, Lingqiu County directly left a mixed brigade to search for and eliminate the surrounding Eighth Route Army with the county seat as the center.

With so many devils, the supplies and ammunition needed every day are astronomical. Therefore, the devil garrison in Laiyuan County will send a batch of supplies to Lingqiu every other week!

Because Shuiquan Village is the only way for the devils, in order to ensure the safety of this road, the devils directly stationed an infantry squad and a company of the puppet army here, with a total strength of more than 150 people.

Because the devils had not yet been attacked at this time, they did not spend the effort to build bunkers and gun ports next to the road. More than one hundred and fifty people, directly occupied several compounds in the village, and more than a hundred people were stationed in the compounds!

In this way, the devil is convenient, but it suffers the people of Shuiquan Village and several surrounding villages.

Although the supplies of the Japanese puppet army were all sent from the county seat, for the devils, there was always a time when they were bored and didn't want to eat after eating too many supplies.

The puppet army that assisted the devils in defending the lines of communication became the devils' most loyal lackeys at this time!

In order to improve the food, the puppet army constantly took the platoon as a unit, with a detachment of devil soldiers, to loot wealth in the surrounding villages.

It hurts very much that the only cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks in the people's homes were all snatched away by the Japanese puppet army in just one month.

If you don't give it, the devil will punch and kick it, and if you are unlucky, you will directly reward a peanut.

Of course, this is not the most ruthless.

After eating and thinking about *** after the food was ready, the devil fell in love with the beautiful girls around him again.

The company commander of the puppet army is a complete traitor lackey, and after receiving instructions from the leader of the devil squad, he took people to the countryside to rob people without saying a word.

So, in the devil's garrison for more than a month, more than a dozen girls and daughters-in-law were insulted by the devil, and then six people committed suicide at the gate of the barracks as soon as they were released from the garrison by the devil because they couldn't stand the insult, and they died.

It can be said that with Shuiquan Village as the center, the people of more than a dozen villages, large and small, hate the more than 100 Japanese puppet troops in Shuiquan Village.

But because there was no one to help them, everyone could only hold their anger and hatred in their stomachs.

Seeing the information provided by the underground party, Wang Ping directly set his first recruitment target in Shuiquan Village!

"Battalion commander, Shuiquan Village is a good place. As long as you get the support of the local people, with Shuiquan Village as the center, more than a dozen villages around you can recruit hundreds of strong guys casually! Instructor Cheng Xiao agrees with this opinion.

"It's easy!" Wang Ping's eyes quickly shot out two rays of fine light, and then said.

"As long as we eliminate more than 100 Japanese puppet troops in Shuiquan Village and avenge the surrounding villagers, the villagers will definitely support us in fighting devils!"

"It's a way! But the devil is not a vegetarian either. There were more than 100 Japanese puppet troops, more than 50 of them alone, and they were also equipped with two crooked handles, two grenadiers, and a heavy machine gun. And they still have a yard to hold onto, and it is close to the county seat, and the devils come by car to reinforce them, and they can kill them in an hour! That meant we had to settle the battle within an hour and then quickly withdraw from the battlefield! Cheng Xiao frowned and analyzed.

"The equipment of our independent battalion is good, with three mortars, the strong attack will definitely be able to take down the puppet army for more than 100 days. But there is a problem, there are too many new recruits in the troops, the casualties of the assault will definitely be large, and there is no guarantee that the battle will end in an hour! ”

"Then even the little devil reinforcements ate together!" Wang Ping said with a big mouth!

Cheng Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then objected: "No, we only have two hundred people, it's too risky to fight like this!" ”

Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "There is a little bit of risk, but as long as we calculate well, we will definitely be able to fight well, and we can achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost!" ”

"Lao Cheng, look, if I use a company to attack the devils, how many reinforcements do you think the devils in Laiyuan City will send!"

"There is an infantry squadron in the sky, and there are not many devils in the county, so it is impossible to kill chickens with a knife. In the devil's drive, a squad is more than enough to pack up one of our companies, not to mention an infantry squadron! ”

"And the devils in Laiyuan City were withdrawn from the front line, and a lot of heavy equipment was left on the front line. According to the report of the underground party, there are less than 20 cars in the entire Laiyuan City, which are specially used to send supplies to various strongholds. Even if the little devil wants to send more reinforcements, there are not so many cars! Cheng Xiao frowned and analyzed.

Wang Ping then added: "Then you are artificial, I use two companies plus an artillery platoon and a guard platoon together to ambush an infantry squadron of devil reinforcements, is it possible to win!" ”

"Definitely, we have three mortars, and four grenadiers, and we have plenty of ammunition, and if we're lucky, we can kill more than half of the devils in the first round of fire!" Cheng Xiao's eyes lit up and he replied.

But only a few seconds later, Cheng Xiao's brows furrowed again.

"There is still a problem, there are more than 160 Japanese puppet troops in Shuiquan Village, and there are only about 50 people in our company, how can we beat the devils to Laiyuan County for help! It's simply impossible to do, and the little devil is not muddy! ”

"Mountain people have their own tricks!" Wang Ping didn't explain, and replied confidently and mysteriously!

In the Japanese puppet army stronghold in Shuiquan Village, early in the morning, Wang Decai, the commander of the puppet army company, ran out of the room of the Japanese squad leader amid scolding, with a red slap print on his face.

The platoon commander of the puppet army, Wang Decai's henchman, immediately ran over and said, "Company commander, what does Nakata want to do?" ”

"It's not that there is nothing delicious, Nakata said that he is tired of eating canned food in the past two days, let's get some fresh chicken, duck and mutton back, otherwise everyone will be beaten with military sticks!"

"What, the brothers don't say anything when they eat steamed buns and drink vegetable soup every day, and he is not satisfied with canned food every day!" The platoon commander hurriedly retorted!

"Whoever makes them masters, we are slaves! Besides, you kid didn't take advantage of any time he went out. Don't talk nonsense, gather the brothers and prepare to go out and sweep and get food for Nakata Taijun! Wang Decai didn't feel that being a lackey was a shame at all, but ordered with a natural expression.

The reason is very simple, following his master Zhongtian, he also got a lot of benefits, just by searching and sweeping merchants along the way, he harvested nearly a thousand pieces of ocean in a month, as well as a lot of gold and silver jewelry and small yellow croaker. Compared with the original company commander in the Jin Sui Army, it is simply a heaven and an earth.

Now, even if he is asked to return to the Jin Suijun as a company commander, he may not be willing!
