Of course, that being said.

How easy is it to run 160 kilometers in one day and one night, even if it is an intermittent march, and it takes at least 16 hours to run.

After making up his mind, Han Feng discussed the specific details of the action with the cadres.

Han Feng said:

"Judging from the situation of our troops themselves, the fighters of our three mountain companies have been traveling back and forth in the mountains for a long time, fighting guerrilla warfare, sports warfare, and dealing with little devils, and their physical fitness is quite good."

"Before this, we have also fought dozens of kilometers and dozens of kilometers, but this time it will be an unprecedented challenge for us."

"When our supplies are not particularly lacking, everyone is not hungry, and the nutrition and everything can keep up, plus the field military boots specially issued to us by the regiment commander, the two pairs of feet are well protected."

"These are all favorable conditions for us to carry out this plan."

Zhang Min echoed: "What Lao Han said is right, during the Long March, our soldiers were hungry, not to mention, many of them didn't even have a pair of straw sandals to wear, and the weeds that could be used to beat straw shoes on the side of the road were exhausted by the troops in front.

But with a pair of barefoot girls, we still walked out alive from the more than 20,000-mile Long March. ”

"We have nothing else in the Eighth Route Army, if we are compared to the foot, we will recognize the second, and no one will dare to recognize the first."

This is the pride that belongs to the old Red Army.

The cadres, especially those who had experienced the Long March, were convinced of this.

Han Feng said with a smile: "Be prepared, although our feet are powerful, if the external environment can do better, our actions will be smoother." ”

He goes on to offer his opinion:

"Before we go, we had a full meal and added more meat. In addition, for the sake of operational attrition, each fighter was given three nutritious rations. ”

As he spoke, Han Feng took out a piece of nutritious rations the size of a palm, wrapped in oiled paper, from his pocket.

"This is the nutritional ration that our regiment commander ordered, and the logistics department specially researched the nutritional rations belonging to our independent regiment based on the nutritional rations seized from the little devils."

"The taste is sweet, the head of the regiment said, there are sugar cubes in it, and there are many high-calorie substances, don't look at this small piece of nutritious rations, it can even provide us with energy consumption for a whole day."

Du Zhongcheng said: "What else is there to say? This is countless times better than the conditions of our Long March. ”

"This 100-mile raid, we will definitely be able to win it smoothly."

Han Feng said: "In addition, in order to ensure that before the action, we have to open up a rapid movement route in the mountains in advance and mark it, so as to save us from taking more unjust roads when we are interspersed, or really hitting the cliff." ”

The cadres nodded in agreement.

"After this series of preparations, we can say that everything is ready, and we only owe the east wind."

After thinking about it, Han Feng added: "In addition, the ideological work of the soldiers, especially the soldiers who have newly joined the mountain company, must be in place, and for this long-distance attack, we need to make everyone mentally prepared in advance." ”

The three instructors nodded their heads, indicating that they would take responsibility for this matter.

It was around seven o'clock in the morning.

After Han Feng, Zhang Min, Du Zhongcheng, and several instructors discussed, the action time was set for two hours later.

At present, the troops will first move to Qingshan Village in the middle of the Nakajo Mountains, and arrive at Furukawa Village at a distance of about 80 kilometers, which is quite sufficient time, as long as they arrive before dark.

After arriving, the warriors would rest in Furukawa Village until the next evening.

During this period, the time was used to prepare all aspects of the operation, not only to make contact with the militia and villagers of Qingshan Village, Dashu Village, and Guhe Village in advance, but also to select the route of march in advance.

And determine the feasibility of the route of travel, and even need to cut down the obstacles in the middle of the way, cutting down the road that can be passed.

For these tasks, the soldiers took Qingshan Village as the end point, and sent a platoon of soldiers to Dashu Village and Guhe Village respectively.

Then, several instructors and cadres at all levels conveyed the contents of the meeting to the fighters and did ideological work.

"This operation is regarded as a long-distance running competition for our soldiers!"

"Our three mountain companies are just like the feet, which one loses, don't be afraid of being laughed at."

"Let's rush to Guhe Village before dark today, and let everyone have enough news after arriving, and give everyone more food in the evening."

……

The instructors did ideological work for the fighters.

The soldiers are not stupid, and naturally they know the difficulty of this long-distance attack.

But everyone is equally willing to believe the understatement in the instructor's words.

As one instructor put it:

"Comrades, this long-distance raid is undoubtedly hard, but nothing can stump a great army like ours with a fearless revolutionary spirit and will work hard at all costs for the fate of the motherland and the destiny of the nation!"

"The Red Army is not afraid of difficult expeditions, thousands of miles and thousands of mountains are just waiting for leisure, the five mountains are soaring and the waves are soaring, and the Wumeng is majestic and walking mud pills!"

"Today, let's change the Red Army to the Eighth Route Army, the so-called blue out of the blue is better than the blue."

"Our conditions are much better than those of our predecessors now, are we going to lose to those predecessors of the Long March?"

Looking at the soldiers' gradually bright and firm eyes, the instructors began to tell the soldiers the story of the Long March.

These stories have long been familiar to veterans.

The veterans never get tired of listening to it, and after listening to each story, their bodies seem to be filled with strength again.

The soldiers who had newly joined the mountain company heard relatively few stories about the Long March.

At this moment, I listened very carefully, and truly felt the fearless spirit of the predecessors of the Red Army during the Long March.

9 a.m.

The three mountain companies were ready and set off on time.

At the same time, in order to alleviate the pressure of moving halfway, some heavy weapons, Han Feng and the three of them discussed, and temporarily hid in Qingshan Village.

By about 8 p.m. that day, the three mountain companies arrived at Furukawa Village at a not very fast speed.

The team immediately repaired to eliminate the fatigue caused by the continuous run of nearly 80 kilometers.

The villagers of Furukawa Village, who learned the news, warmly received the mountain company and his party.

The fighters had a full dinner and hurried to regain their strength.

Rest for the night.

On the morning of the next day, Han Feng and his men made specific plans for the content of the follow-up operation, selected the combat target, and made preparations for the battle.

Militia units from the local and surrounding villages, as well as some brave civilians, rushed to help.

……

There is one point, Han Feng, Zhang Min, and Du Zhongcheng reached a consensus.

Even if it is a war of movement, attack at three points to confuse the Japanese army.

The offensive intensity of each of these points must also be sufficient.

It is necessary to fight until the little devil is frightened, and the little devil feels that the troops of the Eighth Route Army may break through the city at any time.

As planned, the siege broke out in the evening of the same day.

Furukawa Town.

As a border town in the Nakajo Mountain area, the Japanese army did not deploy many troops here.

All this time, there has been no fighting, no guerrilla raids.

The Japanese puppet army was also a little lax in its defense of the county.

The sun had already set half a hour from the western mountains.

A few cannon shots directly kicked off the battle.

This was the first batch of American M2 60mm mortars that Kong Jie got from John, a total of three, plus three base shells, which were directly sent to the mountain company.

At the moment, it is very powerful here.

For these three 60mm mortars, Han Feng is a precious matter, if it weren't for this time in order to deter the Japanese army with strong firepower, Han Feng would be reluctant to use it.

Boom –

With the loud sound of the shells exploding, the position of the Devil's City Gate was suddenly shelled.

Take advantage of the time when the Japanese puppet army defenders on the city gate were suppressed by artillery fire.

The soldiers of the three mountain companies, who had long been ready to go, directly opened the straggler line and charged in the direction of the gate of the county town of Devils like a tide.

More than a dozen light machine guns in the rear opened fire at the same time, suppressing the Japanese troops with direct fire and covering the charge.

The sudden and violent blow, the devil squad who was stationed at the city gate, and the puppet army with less than a platoon, were directly stunned.

The surprise attack came unexpectedly, and the lieutenant of the devil officer in charge of defending the city looked down at a glance.

He couldn't help but be frightened, and secretly swallowed saliva.

At dusk, the number of troops of the Eighth Route Army that launched the offensive was simply too much.

A battalion, a regiment?

No, the strength of at least one main regiment, or even more.

The ferocity of the enemy's firepower exceeded the Japanese army's inherent impression of the Eighth Route Army's backward equipment and scarce ammunition.

The opponent even has the superior firepower to completely suppress the position of the city gate.

This is definitely the main combat force of the Eighth Road, the elite of the elite.

The area of Zhongtiao Mountain is the figure of the Eighth Route Army.

The Japanese puppet army here has also heard of it.

But they remembered the information they passed on, saying that it was just some scattered guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, how could it be like this.

At a glance, it is definitely more than the strength of a main regiment.

In fact, Han Feng's approach was to put the main combat forces of the three mountain companies at the forefront of the charge.

The militia units, local troops, and ordinary people who rushed to help this time were arranged in the rear.

Everyone only needs to shout twice and pretend in the direction of the county.

Why choose to start the battle at dusk?

In order to let the Japanese puppet army on the city gate not see the specific situation of the troops in the rear of the attacking Eighth Route Army.

I just thought that all of them were the main combat units of the Eighth Route Army.

Coupled with the straggler line deliberately opened by the soldiers, it will also confuse the judgment of the Japanese army, and estimate the strength of the Eighth Route side more.

The battle at the city gate lasted less than ten minutes.

Under the heavy artillery fire, the city gate position was directly forcibly captured by the soldiers.

The Japanese puppet army defending the city was forced to withdraw from the city gate, and the military police, the puppet army garrison, and the garrison troops in the city quickly arrived, relying on the buildings in the town, and the soldiers at the city gate to fight......
