Chapter 61: Preset Positions
It took the reconnaissance company more than half a day to arrive at the position, and in the woods, He Jiaming summoned three platoon commanders to come over.
"Check the specific situation, the vegetation on the ground and the overall length of the forest ......" He Jiaming arranged the task, after all, it is a forest, and the arrangement of trees is irregular, and the division of the shooting boundary needs to be well observed and deployed.
……
In Baihe County, after the arrival of the 1st Brigade of the Ishida Wing that day, two squadrons were sent out from the north and south gates to search for traces, but the result was nothing.
It was obviously cleaned up, and there were traces of cleaning on both sides, and the other party was too cunning.
He Jiaming was not stupid, he sent a squad of soldiers out of the south gate to be responsible for clearing the road for a distance.
Then bypassed the county town of Baihe, and soon caught up with the large force of the reconnaissance company, after all, the things were too heavy and the speed of action was very slow.
The captain of the devil's brigade sent a telegram to the Lucheng Wing Headquarters informing them of the situation here, and Wing Leader Ishida ordered them to be stationed temporarily.
As the captain of the wing, he is also worried about the counties within the current Lucheng range.
After all, there was a serious shortage of troops, and the railway was the focus, and there he sent two squadrons of troops, otherwise there would not be only one squad stationed in the county.
Now it seems that on the one hand, it is necessary to guard against the imperial army, and on the other hand, it is necessary to guard against the inside of the county town to prevent the enemy from mixing into the county seat.
Therefore, he is considering adding one or two squads to each county, and he is ready to split the first brigade, so that Baihe County needs to leave at least two squads.
In this way, there are more than 100 imperial soldiers in the county, but the mobile force in their hands has become weak.
However, as long as the county seat and the railway are safe, then he will not need mobile forces for the time being.
Previously, as a wing commander, he maintained the mobile force of a brigade, but he actually wanted to make contributions.
Being placed in the rear to maintain law and order in the occupied territory is not what he wants, facing the battlefield, defeating the enemy, and making achievements, this is what he wants to do.
He also hopes to become a brigade commander, or even a division commander, and now he is the rank of Dazuo, and he is promoted to major general and brigade commander, although it seems to be one step away, but this is a chasm!
But now?
Not only does he always have to be reprimanded, but he doesn't even have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, he must now ensure the safety of the Lucheng area, and his previous mistakes cannot be repeated.
Therefore, he asked the first brigade to stay still for the time being, waiting for him to study the deployment of troops, and then return to Lucheng, and at the same time monitor the situation around Baihe County to see which unit of the Eighth Route Army did it.
When the army returns, he must take revenge himself!
……
He Jiaming had already led people to survey the terrain at this time, and he thought that there would definitely be no problem in choosing here, "Sun Xi! ”
"Here!"
"Immediately take a few people, go back and inform the regiment commander that the location has been chosen, let him come to the convergence as soon as possible with the main force!"
"Yes!"
Sun Xi left with someone, but He Jiaming thought that it would be good if there was a horse.
However, this time it would be better if the complete motorcycles could be captured, and some fuel could be brought back as a means of communication, and it would be even better if the enemy's radio station could be captured, and it would be possible to communicate directly with the brigade headquarters......
Well...... This one needs to be considered!
At this time, the Japanese army had not yet established telephone communication, so the Eighth Route Army did not have enough telephone lines, and the main force of the brigade was still on the Pinghan line at this time!
If radio communications were established, the brigade commander would know what the new regiment had gained, although he probably knew it now, after all, the local organization would report to the top.
A few newly built regiments, which areas are active in which areas are clear!
The weapons and equipment of the new regiment will be targeted by the brigade commander if they don't get it right?
He Jiaming has a view of the overall situation, but the new group is his foundation, and it is impossible to cut the meat directly, so it is better not to expose some things too early.
A new group needs to grow!
He Jiaming led the reconnaissance company to be on guard and study the terrain at the same time, after all, this is a big road, and there are still people walking during the day, and when someone comes, they have to hide themselves.
It's so intermittent that you can't rest assured that you can study it until the evening, but it's already dark, and you can't light a torch to prevent being discovered, so you can only take advantage of the moonlight, little by little.
The new regiment finally arrived, Li Yunlong came over, He Jiaming began to tell, and let Li Yunlong see the prepared foxholes and camouflage, and he could observe it repeatedly during the day tomorrow.
"Okay, let's continue tomorrow, although I don't know how many days the little devil will stay in the county seat, but we'd better prepare during the day tomorrow, and then lurk on the spot!" Li Yunlong said.
He Jiaming nodded, "Yes, you need to have enough patience, the materials can be transported every day, and you can have a hot meal at night!" ”
"Don't worry, I've explained everything, there will be villagers from Xiaowangzhuang who will cooperate with the cooking class to send us supplies every day!" Li Yunlong had expected this early on.
There is no sign of this devil brigade returning to Lucheng now, the specific reason is unknown, and the specific time is even more unclear, after all, this kind of information has no ability to obtain for the time being.
He Jiaming can go to the county seat to find Xu Mang and ask, but if the other party returns at this time, no matter how good He Jiaming's physical strength is, he can't run the car!
"I've ambushed cars before, the devil's cars are generally about five meters apart from each other, after all, the speed is not very fast, the distance of five meters is enough to brake, and the cluster grenade we planted has to add the car commander!" He Jiaming is very careful.
"Tomorrow you will arrange, I will check the machine gun firing boundary, this time I will bring all the light machine guns, and let Wang Chengzhu personally bring a grenadier squad over!" Li Yunlong took precautions.
"Well, in addition, you need to block the front and rear, I am going to take the reconnaissance company to block the tail, and when the time comes, I will directly take them to assault and solve the battle at close range with a pistol!"
"Okay, that's it, let's start deploying tomorrow!"
……
After a night without words, the new group rested directly in the field, and at this time, the little devil's wool blanket was very useful.
It's just that the number is still insufficient, and they are all built by two or three people, and the wild at night is still a little cold.
After dawn, the soldiers of the new regiment got up one after another, moved their bodies, washed up briefly, and the cooking squad also arrived with the cart, took out the lunch box, and everyone had breakfast.
Li Yunlong took Zhang Dabiao and rearranged He Jiaming's deployment yesterday.
Hundreds of people in the whole regiment worked together to dig out foxholes, and then arranged camouflage.
