Chapter 178: Smoothly Return to Shaanxi

"If you encounter a large-scale sweep by devils, how will you deal with it?" The chief of staff asked.

"The two companies that came out were responsible for delaying the attack speed of the devils and guiding the devils to the core position of the arsenal. There is a company here with 50 technicians and 50 technician apprentices, and the strength reaches 220 people. The reserves of ammunition, food, and water are enough to support more than three months of high-intensity combat. It is impossible to rely on secrecy, there are a large number of villagers here who know, so this is not only the real core, but also a battlefield for a large number of devils, if you want to surround this place, according to the surrounding mountains, the encirclement reaches more than 40 miles, and it takes more than 3,000 troops to encircle it tightly, and if you don't have it, you have to guard against us to encircle and annihilate their isolated team. ”

"What if the devil puts 3,000 people to besiege you for half a year?" The chief of staff asked.

"If that's the case, there's really nothing we can do to get them out but harass. Hehe, don't think about how to live when you damn it! What's more, the arsenal is also a grain reserve, and the three-month statement is the ammunition reserve of the Guanshan position, and tomorrow it will increase the share for another month. If the devils put 3,000 people here for two months, my second base must be a big development, and it should be almost time to attack, and see if they still want to level the Han line. It was Ma Biao who answered.

I feel in my heart that it is a businessman who counts money as a bargaining chip, and it is a soldier who counts his life as a bargaining chip. In his previous life, he had no chips, but in this life, his chips are money; Only those who dare to gamble their lives are qualified to be generals, it seems that they really have nothing to do with the general!

The chief of staff pondered for a while and said: "One platoon is a teaching platoon, and the training ground is set up in the area of the farm, so there is no problem in preventing spies from sabotage, and one platoon is a guard platoon, plus the scouts of the headquarters, there is no problem with the protection command." The other three companies were proposed to be placed on the edge of the guerrilla zone for rotational combat, with one company attacking and two companies protecting. If necessary, concentrate forces for a surprise attack, in short, to support the fighters in the guerrilla zone. You study and see, it is not an order. Taihang Mountain has a lot of room for maneuver, don't be reluctant to give up things, "On Protracted War" has already made it clear, "the basic principle of war is to save oneself and destroy the enemy", and we must not forget this principle at critical moments. Let the staff officers work harder, find more suitable places for ambushes in Taihang Mountain, and concentrate forces to fight a war of annihilation is another basic principle of warfare. ”

The chief of staff asked if he had anything to say, and when he shook his head, he directly announced that the meeting had ended. The others are so good, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, it makes no sense for us to listen, I have to learn from the instructor, and I will leave it alone if I leave in Licheng!

The result was that he was lying down on his own.

For Ma Biao to drink to congratulate, he was split by the chief of staff and cleaned up, if in the future, no matter what the reason, you Ma Biao gets drunk once, you will cut off a gold star, and if you become a major, you will be assigned to be a company commander!

Peng Chengfu finally decided to stay and bring his daughter-in-law back to Shaanxi, but his daughter-in-law did not agree; He is the current commander of the reconnaissance company and the commander of the guerrilla zone.

The team that followed him back to Shaanxi consisted of 49 technicians, 90 engineers, 5 medical personnel, 310 disabled soldiers, and 98 soldiers, or 562 people. The 15 scouts, plus Li Daze, the chief of staff, Zheng Wenxian, Dalia and Erya, a total of 583 people, were equipped with 30 mules and horses. Ma Biao arranged for Peng Chengfu to bring 50 scouts and a platoon to escort him. There were nearly 300 people in total who had combat effectiveness, and it was also decided that no one except the soldiers would carry weapons, and that they would only keep dry food for ten days except for their personal belongings. Seeing the strength of the restless chief of staff and Peng Chengfu, he began to study the devils in that place on the road.

The route choice is from Linqi Town to Lingchuan, along the west side of Taihang Mountain, bypassing Jincheng to Wangwu Mountain, which is the defense area of the Chinese army. It is estimated that there will be more than 200 kilometers of mountain roads, including more than 150 kilometers in the area controlled by the Chinese army, and the march is expected to take five to six days. Peng Chengfu returned along the eastern side of Taihang Mountain.

The day before departure, I took the little girl to the farm to say goodbye to her grandmother. The eldest lady is in good health, mainly in good spirit. The smile is also hearty and hearty, and when he is young, he should also be the backbone of the family. In the end, he specially instructed that he must save his life, and he didn't care about anything when the devil came, just fleeing for his life. Every two or three years, I take Erya to see, and if the person is gone, I will immediately put Erya on the farm to raise chickens instead of him. The eldest lady is an understanding person, and she swears to see what Erya looks like as an adult! Looking at the physical condition of the eldest lady and her little feet, I still dispelled the idea of taking it to Shaanxi.

I made a memorization, which can be placed in the front, I learned it from the southerners, and I tied Erya in front and tried it with a backpack, which felt pretty good. This is an emergency measure, and the march in peacetime is of course carried by a military doctor who is qualified to ride a mule.

Set off as scheduled, holding a little girl by herself, a beauty on the left, a beauty on the right, I don't know how far away from hugging the left and right, the left doesn't want to hug now, and the right doesn't dare to hug now. Ma Biao saw him off, still like a pug circling around the chief of staff, and the chief of staff kicked away in annoyance. When he came to himself, he looked like a standard soldier. I didn't want to bother with it, but I felt that there were beautiful women next to me who were also watching, so I thought about it and said: "The next time you come, you and your team are still so arrogant, then you will be punished!" ”

"Instructor, how are you going to punish you?" Ma Biao asked.

Well, still want to bargain? He said leisurely: "How to punish is a difficult problem, I am going to start thinking from now on, I guess when I come back, I must have an idea, if I don't have an idea, I won't come first!" ”

provoked the chief of staff to laugh and said, "The two of us think together!" ”

Ma Biao's anxious eyes rolled, and he didn't think of how to deal with the suppression from the two chiefs! had to put his chief of staff in front of him, and he began to be courteous to the two beauties.

The two beauties promised to persuade the two chiefs on the way, thinking that the beauties couldn't hold back a few words of kindness, who knows, less than twenty meters away, the two beauties began to mumble and study, how to get drunk this annoying guy next time they meet. Terrible! Don't believe the good words of beautiful women in person!

There were 50 scouts in front to reconnoiter and open the way, and the march was smooth. After passing the Lingchuan base area, he began to travel day and night, passing near Jincheng, using more than 200 troops to hit two strongholds that the chief of staff did not like. The chief of staff heard that there were only 5 devils in a stronghold with 20 puppet troops, and 40 puppet army prisoners had to consume 10 scouts to escort them back to the base area! Ten more mules and horses would have helped the march a lot. Qi's chief of staff went straight back to the Buddha queue.

After crossing the Qin River, Peng Chengfu fought a battle of anger and achieved good results. Dongye Town, which controls the entrance to a road from Yangcheng to Jiyuan, has a squad of devils and more than 200 puppet troops. The problem is that Peng Chengfu feels that he is about to arrive at Wangwu Mountain, and there is no place to consume the three 60 mortars and shells brought by one of his platoons, and he is a little aggrieved to bring them back. Taking advantage of the moonlight in the second half of the night, he bombed the puppet army with a random cannon at the devil's barracks. According to the convention, the Eighth Route Army has three mortars, and it can basically be judged that there is a battalion. As soon as the puppet army ran away, four-fifths of its strength was gone, and the devils didn't dare not run away. They all ran away, Peng Chengfu was embarrassed not to go in to take a look, a total of 9 devils died, and more than 20 puppet soldiers, and 11 puppet soldiers who didn't dare to run were arrested, but fortunately, when the puppet army ran, they were unwilling to bring guns, and weapons were seized a lot.

It was still the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, and the guerrillas, who only had more than 30 people, heard the gunfire and immediately supported it, which moved Peng Chengfu. took a few pleasing guns and some gold and oceans, and gave the rest to the guerrillas, which made the guerrilla captains also worried, plus more than 40 prisoners; With a garrison of more than 250 people, there is naturally a small arsenal or something, and it is not a small task for so many weapons, food, and clothing to be transported overnight! reported overnight, coupled with the mobilization of the masses, it was possible to sweep away Dongye Town before the devil reacted!
