Based on the map drawn by the Fourth Independent Regiment on the situation of the enemy and us in the area of Zhongtiao Mountain, Duan Peng taught Kong Jie to himself the tactical way to deal with the battle situation in Zhongtiao Mountain, and slowly introduced:

"When analyzing the battle situation in Zhongtiao Mountain, the detachment leader believed that in the area of Zhongtiao Mountain, the situation in which the enemy was strong and we were weak was the most obvious.

The strength of the Japanese army was much larger than that of the 4th Independent Regiment, and the terrain in the Nakajo Mountains was long and narrow, so there was not enough depth to deal with the Japanese army.

The combination of these factors led to the difficulty of the anti-Japanese war in Nakajo Mountain.

Therefore, our four regiments fought guerrilla warfare in Zhongtiao Mountain, and the focus of the battle against the Japanese army should still be on guerrilla warfare, movement warfare, and ambush warfare.

The tactical principle, on the other hand, is to follow the principle of avoiding the light. ”

"Avoid the light, the heavy?"

The second battalion commander said suspiciously, "Duan Peng, how can you avoid the light and pay attention to the law?" ”

Duan Peng explained: "The detachment leader also made a vivid analogy, that is, to hit a snake and hit seven inches, and it should be hit in a key place, which is called avoiding the light and the heavy. ”

When it comes to specific tactical plays, Duan Peng is confident.

After all, at the headquarters of the detachment, Kong Jie has been paying attention to the progress of the battle situation in Zhongtiao Mountain, and the military simulation sand table in the area of Zhongtiao Mountain produced almost listed the relevant situation of the Japanese army and the Fourth Independent Regiment on Zhongtiao Mountain.

Before coming, Duan Peng, who had done a lot of homework, took over the wooden ruler from the third battalion commander and began to work on the map with the operational map drawn by the fourth regiment.

On the map, Duan Peng bolded the first line with a pencil.

He explained: "This is Qingshan Village, which belongs to the jurisdiction of Mengxian County, a Japanese-occupied area, and this line is the transportation line that the Japanese army must pass through to sweep a section of Qingshan Village from the Mengxian garrison. ”

Immediately after that, he drew the second and third lines.

"Here are the two main cities of the Japanese army, Jixian and Yuanxian.

Once the Japanese army launched a sweep against our Zhongtiao Mountain base area, it would definitely pass through these two main cities and stock up on supplies and equipment in advance.

If we can burn the devil's supplies in advance and blow up the devil's arsenal.

The devil's sweep has not yet begun, and it has basically failed. ”

With Duan Peng's narration, the thoughts of the cadres participating in the meeting were immersed in the tactical play.

Han Feng, the commander of the fourth battalion, who was the first to come back to his senses, spoke:

"I see, I seem to understand what the old head of the regiment means by avoiding the light."

"The Japanese army launched a sweep of our Zhongtiao Mountain base area, and for the devils, the most important thing is the supply of logistics and these transportation lines.

This is the basis for fully ensuring that the Japanese army can continue to carry out the sweep.

For us, it is certainly unwise for the Japanese army to have an absolute superiority in strength, as well as large-caliber artillery, and even aircraft reinforcements, to confront the Japanese sweeping army head-on.

Therefore, what we have to do is to avoid the Japanese army's front, and hit the key points of the devils, just like hitting the snake and hitting the seven inches, hitting the most important material reserves and transportation lines of the devils. ”

Duan Peng said with a smile: "The fourth battalion commander understands one thing. ”

"This is also the reason why the detachment leader sent our commando team over for reinforcements this time."

"What our commando team is best at is infiltration, infiltration and raiding, and in the case of the devils being heavily guarded, they can still enter the county seat, blow up the devils' arsenals, and burn down their warehouses."

"But that's just one of them."

Duan Peng continued: "On the one hand, we will directly threaten the materials and arms that the devils have hoarded in the county seat, and on the other hand, we will arrange for the guerrillas to ensure that the devils' transportation lines are cut off on the way. ”

"One more thing, the frontal battle must also be coordinated accordingly."

"After the county town in the rear of the Japanese army is completely disrupted by us, the main force of our four regiments will move forward at the same time to attack, take the lead in defeating the devil's and tun villages, and eliminate the puppet regime."

"What we want is to keep the Japanese army busy at both ends, so that we have a chance to fight back."

"Therefore, this batch of American-style equipment sent by the old regiment commander played a key role." Wang Huaibao said.

"With this batch of American-style equipment, we have the most elite combat units and the most elite firepower equipment.

Even if there are not many troops, they can exert considerable combat effectiveness.

In this way, in the process of infiltrating the operation in a roundabout way, cutting off the transportation lines of the devils, and raiding the warehouses and arsenals of the Japanese military county.

We can intersperse operations with small combat units.

Avoid exposure caused by the size of the combat unit. ”

Duan Peng said: "That's exactly the truth. ”

"It's just a ...... in terms of the subsequent supply of ammunition for these American-style equipment"

Han Feng, who had a deep understanding of this, said with a bitter face: "In fact, our soldiers have always tried to maintain the principle of destroying an enemy with one bullet on the battlefield and being sure to save ammunition. ”

"But after the actual battle broke out, the situation was urgent, the Garand rifle in our hands had a large ammunition capacity, eight rounds, and it was a semi-automatic rifle, and it could shoot by pulling the trigger, and the soldiers didn't pay attention to it, and the amount of ammunition consumed was quite exaggerated after that battle."

"In addition, even if the ammunition of the Japanese army is captured, this caliber is different, and the bullets of the devils cannot be used on these American equipment."

"So these Garand rifle bullets, that's really one less than one."

The fighters of the fourth battalion were also depressed about this.

How sad I was at the beginning, how helpless I am now.

The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd battalions used conventional Type 38 rifles, made in Hanyang, although the firepower was not very strong during the battle.

But a battle was fought, ammunition was consumed, and there were captures.

Basically, it can be leveled, and even more ammunition can be accumulated, which can ensure continuous combat.

But most of the soldiers of the fourth battalion used Garand rifles, commonly known as the big eight.

At the beginning, Kong Jie sent over with hundreds of Garand rifles, as well as a considerable number of bullets of corresponding calibers.

It's just that no matter how much ammunition there is, it can't withstand only consumption and not capture.

So when it came to the follow-up, the fourth battalion was also helpless.

Han Feng had to order that in the case of non-essential combat, the soldiers of the fourth battalion would all use Type 38 rifles or Hanyang-made.

The Garand rifle also has ammunition, which needs to be used at critical times.

In fact, this is also the place where the Yankees chicken thieves who sold arms to the national army.

They first sold a large number of rifles to the Chinese army.

And because of the different calibres of the bullets, having a large number of rifles means consuming more ammunition.

So what can be done?

If you don't have your own production line, you'll have to find a way to buy it from the Yankees.

In this way, people have made one sum after another.

Guns can be carried, bullets can be sold, and production lines can be sold.

The question raised by Han Feng at the moment is also what Wang Huaibao and other cadres want to ask.

Everyone also knows that the biggest problem with the use of these American equipment is that it is impossible to guarantee the supply of subsequent ammunition.

In other words, it can only be used for a while.

Facing the worries of the cadres, Duan Peng laughed:

"Don't worry about this, it's not that we don't know the ability of our detachment leader, and the detachment didn't tell me specifically how to ensure the follow-up ammunition supply of these American weapons and equipment.

But the detachment commander said, let us use it with confidence, rest assured to fight, and he naturally has a way to deal with the follow-up ammunition supply problem.

In addition to the firearms and equipment, the amount of ammunition delivered this time is also quite sufficient.

The most basic Garand rifle has two base numbers of ammunition per rifle, which is 120 rounds.

Basically, the amount of ammunition carried by the devil is the same.

Everyone saves a little bit of use, and it is absolutely enough to solve the current crisis in Zhongtiao Mountain, and the follow-up detachment leader will also transport the corresponding ammunition. ”

As soon as the cadres heard this, the stones in their hearts all fell.

Two bases, 120 rounds.

That's enough.

Recalling the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the Eighth Route Army was outdated in equipment and scarce in ammunition, using an old sleeve that was almost smoothed out, and there were not a few bullets in that pocket.

The veterans with the most combat experience in the team are often able to distribute a dozen rounds of ammunition.

And an ordinary warrior is not bad to be able to shoot thirty rounds of ammunition a year.

The Eighth Route Army also advocated the elimination of an enemy with one bullet.

Strictly eliminate the waste of ammunition on the battlefield.

These 180 rounds were according to the previous standard.

Basically, an ordinary warrior has used ammunition for two or three years.

……

The problem of equipment has been solved, and there will be no shortage of ammunition for the time being.

Kong Jie asked Duan Peng to bring countermeasures against the Japanese army this time.

This is followed by specific operational mobilization and deployment.

On Duan Peng and the commando team led by him, Wang Huaibao did not give many orders.

"Your commando team has always had its own thoughts, I guess the old regiment commander also explained to Duan Peng very clearly, how to fight this time, Duan Peng, you can arrange it yourself."

"Yes!" Duan Peng responded.

Wang Huaibao continued: "Then let's spend two days to let our soldiers quickly familiarize themselves with these American equipment and get started quickly.

Fourth battalion commander, you and the fighters of the fourth battalion have been using American-style rifles for a long time and have plenty of experience.

You must not hide your secrets, but pass on your experience and methods to the soldiers of the other battalions in a timely manner. ”

Han Feng said with a smile: "Commander, don't worry!" Absolutely. ”

Han Feng said, including several company commanders of the fourth battalion, all of them had a smug look on their faces.

And voila!

At present, regarding how to use this batch of American-style equipment, our fourth battalion has become the teacher of the whole regiment.

"As for the combat mission of interspersed with roundabout operations and cutting off the transportation lines of the Japanese army, Han Feng, I will still hand it over to your four battalions,

Your four battalions are composed of mountain companies that have accumulated considerable combat experience in the Nakajo Mountains.

This interspersed and roundabout combat mission belongs to none other than your four battalions. ”

This is a recognition of the soldiers of the 4th Battalion.

Han Feng immediately straightened his chest and responded, "Please rest assured, the head of the regiment, we promise to complete the task!" ”

Wang Huaibao nodded and continued to arrange the specific combat missions of the other battalions.

The final combat deployment is basically the same as the fighting style relayed by Kong Jie and Duan Peng.

The commando team that is best at stealth, infiltration, and surprise operations is responsible for making trouble in the county towns in the area occupied by the Japanese army.

Blow up the devil's arsenal, burn the devil's grain and grass, and even destroy the devil's communication station, power supply station, railway station, and so on.

The commotion is getting better and better, and it is best to make the devil county a mess.

The soldiers of the original mountain company of the 4th Battalion took advantage of their familiarity with the terrain and topography of the Nakajo Mountain area to take the opportunity to intersperse detours and go around the back of the Japanese sweeping troops.

The focus is on the transport lines of the devils.

Cutting off the transportation lines of the Japanese army, so that the Japanese sweeping troops were forced to end the sweep ahead of schedule due to the lack of logistical supplies.

In addition, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd battalions were responsible for containing them from the front.

At the same time, when the Japanese army was in a difficult situation, they took the opportunity to defeat the devil's merger village, eliminate the puppet regime, and completely break the encroachment of the devil's merger policy.

……

……

Zhongtiao Mountain, north of the Yellow River.

While the military situation is quietly evolving, on the other side, south of the Yellow River on the back of Zhongtiao Mountain.

On the land of Yuzhou.

It is rapidly spreading and exacerbating a natural disaster that is a thousand times more terrible than war - a great drought not seen in decades.

The soldier Xiao Wu accompanied Shen Wenyue, a reporter from the former Jinnan Newspaper, and under the cover of the soldiers of the Fourth Independent Regiment, he crossed the Yellow River south into the land of Yuzhou, which was already the third day.

The two brought almost a week's worth of food rations.

At this time, because the main force of the Japanese army was still stationed north of the Yellow River behind Zhongtiao Mountain, and did not continue to march to Yuzhou, there was no devil on the land of Yuzhou now.

It's just that as the journey continues, as the pace goes deeper and deeper.

Shen Wenyue and Xiao Wu witnessed this journey, the people were struggling to make a living, mourning all over the wilderness, and there were corpses and bones all the way, only the terrible scene of purgatory on earth with flies spinning and wild wolves wailing.

As it progressed, the tragedy became more and more unsightly.

On both sides of the arid, almost cracked road, the bones of people who had starved to death were seen at any time.

Seeing all this, Shen Wenyue, who couldn't believe her eyes, couldn't help but sigh:

Du Fu described in "Soldier Chariot Travel", you don't see it, Qinghai head, no one collects the white bones in ancient times. The new ghost is annoyed and the old ghost is crying, and the sky is cloudy and rainy, and the wet voice is chirping......"

"I have always lamented the fate of the ancients, and human life is like a mustard."

"But in this day and age, natural disasters and man-made disasters go hand in hand, and once disasters bebelow ordinary people, isn't the tragedy even worse than in ancient times?"

"Before heading south to the Yellow River, I also heard from the victims of the disaster who had fled the past to tell about the horrific daily situation in Yuzhou."

"At that time, I sympathized with the plight and suffering of the victims, but I was never able to actually feel it, and I even thought that the victims were exaggerating."

"But now I know how naïve I am, and how can the disasters described by the victims compare to the tenths of what we see in front of us?"

Along the way, even if he has been on the battlefield many times and has seen Xiao Wu who has been bloodshed and sacrificed, his face is a little pale after witnessing the tragic scenes along the way.

When he was in the independent regiment, the regiment commander Kong Jie proposed.

On some official roads leading from Yuzhou to Shanxi, some shelters were built at intervals.

At that time, Xiao Wu didn't understand what these shelters were for, and thought that they were temporarily accommodating living people.

Later, I learned that it was to store the skeletons that no one cared about and exposed on the official road.

Now witnessing all this, Xiao Wu completely understands why the head of the regiment would arrange it like this.

The severity of the disaster here has far exceeded the imagination of the world.

If you don't see it with your own eyes, how many can you imagine?
