Chapter 401: On Paper
The mountains are high and the sun is cold, and the west wind sweeps the yellow sand, covering the endless stretch of people and guns.
In the middle of the team, Li Youde, who was dressed as an ordinary gentry, if he didn't know him, no one would have thought that he was the supreme commander of this puppet army, more like a passer, or coerced by the puppet army.
In the desolate mountains, except for the invincible imperial army in the world, a team of this size is rare, pompous and magnificent, but Li Youde's face is not good, and his brows are deep.
At present, the march is on the boundary of Qingshan Village, which is the territory of the Ninth Company of the Independent Regiment, and Li Youde guessed that the Ninth Company should have smelled it. Li Youde didn't mind exchanging fire with the Eighth Route Army, but after all, there was an ambiguity with the Independent Regiment, and the Ninth Company was a neighbor, so he had to be cautious about some things.
This mission had to be completed with all his might, not only because it was the Imperial Army to be saved, but also because it was also a test. If we cross the territory of the Ninth Company, the Ninth Company will certainly look for trouble, and we must not be dragged back by them, friction is inevitable, and the battle may be fought, but the key is to what extent? We must grasp the bottom line! Now is not the time to turn the other cheek with the Independent Regiment.
The problem is that only you know about this matter, and you can't expect your soldiers to control the proportions, it's difficult!
Leading the team in front is the battalion deputy Li Yong, black leather boots school officer uniform, high-spirited and commanding to show his majesty, raising his eyes forward, a ruined village is already in sight, so he stopped and waited, waiting for Li Youde to come with the team, accompanied and left, and said: "Uncle, are you tired? Let's stop and rest?"
"It's fine, I'm just a little worried. ”
"We have a lot of soldiers, plus you are strategizing, what else is there to worry about?"
"Strategizing, do you think...... Am I a marshal?"
"Of course, I, Li Yong, have never seen anyone more powerful than you, uncle!"
Glancing at Li Yong's youthful vigor, Li Youde smiled helplessly: "Bing, death is also, and it is easy to say." If Zhao does not bracket it, if it is necessary, the one who breaks the Zhao army will also bracket. ”
"What do you mean? Hehe, how can I understand this? ”
"Zhao Kuo, have you heard of it? Now, your uncle and I are 'Zhao Kuo'. After saying this, Li Youde smiled bitterly again: "Hehe, I'm also a 'famous general', I know enough!"
It's a pity that Li Yong scratched his ears and cheeks for a long time, his head was full of Guan Yu Qin Qiong, and he didn't know who 'Zhao Kuo' was, but since the uncle compared himself to Zhao Kuo, then this person should not be bad!
"Uncle, there is Qingshan Village ahead, you say...... Will that Ninth Company jump out and look for trouble?"
"Even if he can't, he'll be! Their nest is in the south, isn't it?"
"Yes, more than ten miles to the south, by the river, there seem to be a few people. ”
"Find something to do for them, so as not to drag us down. Pass my order, and the Sixth Company will go south from here to turn over their nest!"
"Sixth Company?" Li Yong was surprised, this Sixth Company was the most disobedient to Li Youde's command among the three companies adapted from the mountain bandits, and it was the most disobedient to the Yin, and its discipline was sloppy and smoky. Although the strength of the 9th Company of the Independent Regiment does not seem to be much, it can be expected that this 6th Company will fight ...... So Li Yong proposed: "Uncle, look...... Plus a company how, I'm afraid of him ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Youde waving his hand: "No need, it is estimated that there are not many people in the Ninth Company of the Independent Regiment, and one company can't be defeated? Don't forget, it is the right thing to go north through Qingshan Village to save the Imperial Army." ”
Li Yong ran out to give orders, Li Youde continued to follow the team to the west unhurriedly, if he wanted to fight without breaking, he could only do this, if he really made the Eighth Road in a hurry, they would have to go to the Fallen Leaves Village to set fire, why bother?
......
Gray military hat, two buttons black shiny, curved brim, habitually blackened eyebrows; gray military uniform, crossed Japanese armed belt, his M1932 and binoculars on the right side, cross-shouldered on the left side, water bottle, shoulder bag, and dry food bag; on the left side of the waist is a wide leather bullet box, the right side of the waist hangs a bayonet sheath; the 38 cover hangs vertically on the right shoulder, and the right thumb of the right hand naturally supports the rifle strap on the rib side.
Hu Yi glanced at the equipment of the six warriors in front of him, turned around and began to walk quickly.
Ma Liang team is second, Liu Jianqiang is third, Chen Chong is fourth, and seven figures trot out of the wine station.
Little Red Ying looked on tiptoe with her pigtails, until the soldier who ran the farthest turned around and waved his hand at her vigorously, then she withdrew her gaze, stomped the dust on the upper of her shoes, and shouted impatiently in the direction of the bunker: "Mule, are you finished?
Behind her, a dark-skinned and serious-looking warrior stepped forward and stood beside her, wanting to speak, and Wu Shishi, who had been staring at him, also took a step forward, unceremoniously raised his hand and pushed him hard, because of his strength, he pushed him on the spot, and took two steps back, and then Wu Shishi continued to stare at him numbly, like a beast ready to burst out.
Xiao Hongying turned her head when she heard the voice, raised her little eyebrows and asked Tian Sanqi, "What's uncomfortable?"
Tian Sanqi glanced at Wu Shishi, kept the current distance and said to the little girl, "I need a gun." ”
"Is this talking to me?"
Tian Sanqi pursed his lips: "Report!"
"Say it. ”
"I need a gun!"
"No guns. ”
At this time, Xu Xiaoying came running over, and there was a slight rattling sound in the satchel she was carrying, and Xiaohongying asked, "How much did you bring?"
"Five hundred rounds, the squad leader said it was too much. ”
"Not much. Then Chaotian Sanqiyi said: "Take it off and carry it on his back." Then he said to Wu Shishi, "Give him your pickaxe and shovel on your back." ”
The bear finally came out of the bunker, carrying a light machine gun with a crooked handle, and swayed unhurriedly: "Ahem...... Well...... That one...... Have you all arrived?"
"Are you embarrassed?" Little Red Ying rolled her eyes at the bear, and pointed to the kettle on the bear's body: "Is there any water? Don't expect to drink me!"
"Oh? uh...... Right, right. Small, go and fill the kettle for the squad leader. ”
“......”
Tian Sanqi silently carried the bullet bag on his back, and then carried Wu Shishi's short pickaxe and sapper shovel. He was very disappointed, he wanted to follow Hu Yi's group to the north, but unfortunately there was no him; he wanted to stay at the wine station with Li Xiang, but unfortunately there was no him; Luo Fugui's group was the least risky and the least, but it didn't even give him a gun.
The ninth squad leader of Jiao'er Lang, a girl who lacks morality, a fool with cold eyebrows, plus the thinnest soldier, can this group fight?
Soon after, the group also set off. Luo Fugui took the lead, Xiao Hongying followed, Wu Shishi ranked third, Xu Xiao was fourth, and Tian Sanqi was at the end. They walked unhurriedly under the leadership of the bear, without any tension, if the word 'autumn tour' can be used to describe this most heartless group...... Couldn't be more apt!
......
The wine station was a busy mess, counting Qin You, the instructor, there were ten people from the Nine Company, and the machine gun group trained here in the five regiments, which was fifteen people, plus the sixteen militiamen in the wine station village, the combat force was a total of thirty-one people.
This was Qin You's first time organizing combat preparations, and Hu Yi threw half of the Ninth Company to him, the instructor, but he didn't have any smug thoughts at all. Qin You knew very well that fighting a war was not a simple matter, it was a matter of human life, and he, a layman, felt that the six gods had nowhere to start, so he simply carried out his gun and found Shi Cheng.
"Instructor, what are you ......?"
"Shi Cheng, now I will hand over the command to you, you will command this battle, and I will be a soldier for you! Success is your credit, and I will bear the responsibility for failure! Now you can send me a task. ”
From Qin You's deep wrinkles, Shi Cheng saw seriousness. This was something he didn't expect, and for the first time, he looked at the unshaven face seriously and carefully: "Instructor, you don't have to do this, you should still command." We are just defending, the enemy is not a devil and has no heavy firepower, this is not complicated, Li Xiang and I took a few people to guard the bunker, and basically controlled the front of the entrance. ”
Shi Cheng pointed to the only flat-topped stone house in the wine station: "Send someone to set up a ladder to carry sandbags to the stone house, build a high bunker, put a few guns, cover the traffic trench behind the pillbox, and monitor the north and south wings at the same time." As long as there are two points before and after, you can hold the wine station. Therefore, the fifteen of us should be divided into three groups, one group of pillboxes, one group of stone houses, and the other group of people hidden in the traffic trenches as reserves. ”
After some guidance, Qin You had a certain understanding, and he asked again: "Don't you use the militia?"
"Yes, sixteen militiamen, fourteen of them went one mile upstream along the other side of the river to covertly monitor the river, and two sent one mile downstream to make secret sentinels. If the enemy wants to cross the river, I guess he should go around from upstream, because a long part of the downstream is full of rushing water, which is inconvenient, and the possibility cannot be ruled out. If the enemy does not cross the river, the people on the other side do not have to withdraw, and if the enemy wants to cross the river, the people on the other bank go directly to the south, and the militia moves freely according to the situation. They still couldn't get into the wine station, and the bunkers on the stone houses still kept them from entering the village on the other side. There is no way to do this, but to bet that the enemy is going around from the top, and the militia can scare them from crossing the river. Instructor, do you have confidence now? I just let the company commander force me to fight, don't forget that we can run at any time. ”
"Then I'll try, if something unexpected happens, you can alert me!"
"Hey, hey, obey!"
Qin You turned back to command the chaotic soldiers, while Shi Cheng jumped into the traffic trench and ran into the bunker with a puff of smoke.
Li Xiang and three other soldiers were busy in the bunker, sitting the three-year-old heavy machine gun onto the freshly repaired tripod.
"Can it work?"
When he turned around and found that Shi Cheng had come in excitedly, Li Xiang clapped his hands: "I didn't know if I could hold it when I opened it." ”
"Li Xiang, let's talk about it first, I'll be the machine gunner myself, don't fight with me!"
"Whatever you want, I'm just here to see the results of my repairs, and as for use, I'm not interested, and you don't expect me to press bullets for you. ”
Shi Cheng finally put his mind at ease, and couldn't wait to push away a soldier by the machine gun: "You make me a secondary shooter, press the bullet protection plate for me, and you, hurry up and ...... This guy has a great time!"
"Brother Shi Cheng, the bullets haven't come yet!"
At this time, five soldiers ran outside the bunker, and a bullet box was placed at the entrance of the bunker with a bang: "Hey, we should use the heavy machine gun, right? We are the heavy machine gun crew!"
Shi Cheng didn't even raise his head, and went directly to grab those yellow and cancan Tomosaka rifle bullets. The soldiers of the Ninth Company next to him used their bodies to block the soldiers from the five regiments outside the pillbox, and said with a calm face: "You five are reserves, go cool in the traffic trench, hurry up, don't hang around here!"
The five warriors left the bunker in frustration, "Scum Nine Company!" someone finally whispered.
