On the top of Liaobori Mountain, the Yuntai Temple, which used to be full of incense, has become a broken wall. Jiang Hong accompanied the commander of the "Jing Zhongying" guerrilla unit to stand by the broken wall and observe the movements of the devils with a telescope.

The commander looked at the devil who was outflanked in a fan shape, and said to Jiang Hong with some emotion: "This is a big meal!" Is it safe to eat them? Is there enough ammunition? ”

"It's okay! A few days ago, the 1st Squadron was busy and made a small ambush on Jingzhong Road, and captured five truckloads of guns and ammunition. ”

The commander looked at Jiang Hong appreciatively and sighed: "If our troops have equipment and quality like yours, why can't we drive away the Japanese devils!" ”

Jiang Hong took out a pocket watch and looked at the time, and then said, "Yes! It is indeed a great shame to think that we are a big country and that we have been invaded and bullied by the island nation of Japan. But then again, it is not that our generation is greedy for life and afraid of death, but that the military strength of the two sides is not equal. The Japanese army used airplanes, artillery, and tanks, while we had broken guns, spears, and broadswords, how could such equipment compete with the Japanese army armed to the teeth? So only by updating the weapons in our hands can we go head-to-head with the Japanese devils. Only when a country is strong can it not be bullied by other countries. ”

"Report! Political Commissar Xiao sent news that the vanguard of the devils had entered Liujiachong from the east and west, with the intention of forming an encirclement of our department. At this time, the operator of the independent brigade reported the latest situation to Jiang Hong.

"Chief, what do you see?" Jiang Hong asked the commander for instructions.

The commander waved his hand: "You will have full command of this battle, and you have more experience than me in ambush warfare!" ”

"Chief Xie trusts!" Jiang Hong excitedly saluted the commander, and then said to the operator: "Tell Political Commissar Xiao that the 1st and 2nd squadrons will cooperate with Captain Xu to guard the east and west entrances, and close the door and beat the dog after 20 minutes." ”

In the woods next to the entrance at the east end of Liujiachong, Xiao Hong looked at the Japanese puppet army that was rushing in, and said to Qiu Ju, who was holding a sniper rifle, "Later, you will fight the devil officers and their machine gunners, by the way, if you see Ding Yi, you must be merciful." ”

On the mountain beam on the north side, Guo Dazhuang, commander of the 43rd Regiment of the New Fourth Army, heard the footsteps and shouts of the devil getting closer and closer, and turned back to A Dechun, who was constantly wiping his sweat under the scorching sun, and said: "Captain A, I heard that your nickname is 'Beat Accurate', and you will beat me hard later!" ”

"Head Guo, please rest assured!" While answering Commander Guo's question, Dechun whispered to Wang Shishi beside him: "Later, you will be responsible for the machine gun and gunner who bombard the devils." ”

Time is moving forward second by second, and the air in the entire Liu Jiachong is so solemn that it seems to be able to squeeze out water.

Junichi Watanabe followed his troops to the foot of Mt. Chatori, and the retreating Shina army had fled into a mountain rush on the left. He ordered his troops to outflank the left and right, while he rode a snow-white war horse and confidently followed the large army into the mountain rush on the left, and his interpreter, Ding Jiaju, also rode a brown Oriental horse to follow closely behind.

At this time, it was noon, and Junichi Watanabe, who was still sweating all the time, felt a chill soon after entering Yamachong, and suddenly he shivered, and for a while he had a bad feeling, and the cold sweat unconsciously flowed down his head, and he tightened the reins and slowed down his progress. At this moment, a gunshot rang out from the "horn", and a red signal flare rose over Liaobori Mountain.

"Yaga! Caught in the ambush of the Chinese people. Junichi Watanabe fainted for a while, and then came to his senses, and he drew his command knife: "Sprinkle it to Lu!" Sprinkle to the dew! Then he turned the horse's head.

"Hit!" With the order of Guo Dazhuang, the commander of the 43rd Regiment, three heavy machine guns and twenty light machine guns roared and shot out viper-like flames. Nearly 1,000 grenades flew to the bottom of the narrow ditch like a flock of sparrows, "boom, boom", the continuous explosion was deafening, and the sharp shrapnel roared down with the breath of death, and for a time, the explosion of grenade mortar shells, the strafing sound of machine guns, and the screams of the Japanese puppet army were all in one piece, and they were endless. The Japanese troops, who had come to their senses, organized a stubborn counterattack while frantically rushing out of the mountain. At this time, the "Jing Zhongying" guerrillas guarding the east and west exits of Shanchong and the first and second squadrons of the Dahongshan Guerrilla Independent Brigade had already tied up their pockets, and they blocked the exit of Shanchong with powerful firepower while blocking the reinforcements of the enemy who had not yet entered the ambush circle. The battle was very fierce at the beginning, the Japanese army attacked inside and outside like mad dogs, and the fighters of the "Jing Zhongying" guerrillas soon suffered serious casualties, but fortunately, with the support of the first and second squadrons of the independent brigade, this ensured that the two exits were not breached.

The 482nd Regiment of the Sichuan Army, which was responsible for the reinforcements of the periphery, repelled the attacks of the devils again and again under the command of the regiment commander Gao Yunpeng, and launched artillery battles and white-knuckle battles with the devils several times, and simply blocked the reinforced enemy outside the mountain pass, and the scene was tragic.

Inside the mountain chong, the Japanese puppet army, which suffered the first round of heavy blows, suffered heavy casualties, and there was chaos, and the survivors retreated frantically. At this time, the three military trumpets of the 43rd Regiment sounded the charge horn at the same time, and the soldiers of the New Fourth Army who were ambushed on the mountain beam rushed down the hill with a murderous voice. A: Dechun hurriedly commanded mortars and infantry artillery to extend fire at the retreating enemy.

The Japanese puppet army, which retreated to the vicinity of the two mountain passes, was suppressed by strong firepower at the same time, and was killed and injured by the stones rolling down the Liaobori Mountain, coupled with the grenades thrown from the mountain one by one, the horizontal shrapnel made the panicked Japanese puppet army unable to find a safe corner, and there were countless casualties for a while.

At the east exit, Qiu Ju held a sniper rifle and fired alternately at several pre-selected sniper positions, and there was no missing bullet. According to Political Commissar Xiao's instructions in advance, she specialized in beating Japanese officers wearing yellow tweed uniforms, which frightened the Japanese officers and did not dare to raise their heads. At this moment, the figure of Ding Jiaju, the Japanese translator, appeared in her scope, just about to pick the fire, suddenly thought of the command of Political Commissar Xiao, so he aimed to the side again, and then another familiar figure appeared in the scope, she recognized that the devil officer wearing the rank of Dazuo was Junichi Watanabe, and suddenly her heart was ecstatic, she held her breath, aimed the center of the cross in the scope at Watanabe's head, gently pulled the trigger, and with the sound of a gunshot from the "horn", Junichi Watanabe shot in the heart, and slowly fell down from the horse. When Ding Jiaju saw Watanabe shot and fell off the horse, he hurriedly jumped off the horse, hugged Watanabe's corpse and exclaimed: "Dazuo has been shot, withdraw quickly." ”

The ambush began at noon and continued into the evening. More than 1,100 Japanese puppet soldiers who entered the ambush circle of Liujiachong, except for a few who escaped by burrowing into the woods while it was dark, most of the other personnel, including the captain of Junichi Watanabe, were annihilated, and Ding Jiaju took Junichi Watanabe's corpse to break out of the encirclement under the instruction of Xiao Hong. More than half of the Japanese puppet troops who participated in the rescue suffered casualties, and finally withdrew to their respective strongholds. More than 140 guerrillas were killed or wounded by the "Jing Zhongying" guerrillas, more than 50 were killed or wounded by the 43rd Regiment of the New Fourth Army, and more than 60 were killed by the 482nd Regiment of the Sichuan Army.

The New Fourth Army and the Sichuan Army once again joined forces to counter the "sweep", inflicting heavy losses on the Japanese army and smashing the Japanese army's conspiracy to conquer Dahong Mountain. Yan'an was naturally overjoyed and rewarded. Although the Fifth Theater and Chongqing also issued a commendation order, they were not happy in their hearts, and they preferred to see the Japanese raze the Nanshan revolutionary base area of the Chinese Communist Party to the ground, so that they could reduce the strength of the Communist Party without bloodshed. For this reason, they gave He Shuheng, the commander of the 161st Division of the Sichuan Army, a difficult problem, and ordered him to let Xiao Dejun lead the Dahongshan Guerrilla Independent Brigade to return to reconstruction, and then he was promoted to lieutenant general and Xiao Dejun to major general.

In the headquarters of the 40th Division of the Japanese Army, the division commander Naojiro Amaya received the battle report, and was speechless in shock for a while, and then angrily drew his saber and chopped the documents, pen holders, and teacups on the table into pieces. He instructed the intelligence services to find out as soon as possible what kind of miraculous team it was, and in just ten days he suffered two heavy losses, and he vowed that one day he would break this team to pieces.
