Rise from the sword

Chapter 103 Order from Taiyuan

Shou County.

Inside the Japanese Army Headquarters.

"What do these beggars Tubalu want to do?"

Recalling what happened recently, the commander of the Japanese Army Battalion stationed in Shou County, Kuroshima, frowned.

Not long ago, the nearby Tuba Road suddenly ran out of the mountains, assembled and surrounded a fortress to the north of him, built a machine gun position, and began to dig deep trenches into the fortress, posing as if he was going to approach and attack the fortress from the ground, even He also cut the telephone line buried in the ground, causing him to lose contact with the fort and had to send troops to rescue.

Originally, he thought that the guerrillas had come to engage in their usual tactics again, so he didn't think much about it.

He has seen this move a lot during the year he was stationed in Shou County, and he is used to it. Tuba Road has no heavy weapons, and not many light weapons. There is no way to break through the fortress, so he just wants to think of other ways to resist.

Ambush his support team.

Help around the point.

Classic tactics.

But in the hands of the so-called Eighth Route Army, which is composed of a group of beggar farmers, without formal military training, and without any decent weapons, not even a few bullets, it has no effect at all.

At most one or two people were injured, if the other party was willing to go all out, maybe he could still cause a dozen casualties?
It's casualties, not deaths!

And most of the casualties were the Royal Association Army, the security team.

And he can easily make the opponent pay more than ten times the price.

The absolute gap in strength cannot be made up by any tactics.

However, although there is no threat to the imperial army, it still annoys many people on the Black Island, like a fly, no, it is like a mosquito bite, nothing happens, just very annoying.

So he marched along the way and sent out a lot of scouting posts to spread out the scouting, preparing to kill the ambush troops directly.

When encountering mosquitoes, just slap them to death before approaching.

However, to his surprise, the opponent seemed to have no intention of encircling the fort, and there was no ambush along the way. Even when his forward approached, the troops surrounding the fort quickly retreated. No cold gun was done.

The retreat was clean and quick.

When he went to the fortress to inquire, many people on the Black Island couldn't figure it out.

The opponent established a machine gun position, fired at the fortress machine gun from a long distance, fired thousands of bullets, but caused the careless fortress garrison unit to casualty several machine gunners, and then dug a deep trench tens of meters long, cutting off his phone line, that's all.

Does this action work?has no meaning?
Just connect the phone line, there are many things like this.

The trench can be filled immediately, because the earthwork is piled up next to it, and it takes ten minutes.

As for the casualties of several machine gunners, this was an accident.However, the other party was able to cause these two or three casualties because the garrison of the fortress was used to being careless and forgot the necessary machine gun shooting rules. When shooting, the machine gunners did not do anything concealed, so they were caught by the other party. Chance.

But there were only two or three casualties. For a brigade, there were so few that there was no need to report them.By the way, it can also serve as a typical lesson for the garrisons of various fortresses to strengthen their shooting regulations, which is not a loss.

And just for the casualties of these two or three people, the other party dispatched hundreds of people and spent thousands of rounds of ammunition. No matter how you look at it, it is not worthwhile. Doesn’t it mean that the Eighth Route Army is short of ammunition?

Doubtful Hei Dao people returned to the city with their troops.

But what he never expected was that after a while, the other party came again.

The same move, but with greater momentum, more people, more machine guns, and even set up a circular encirclement position. Dozens of machine guns fired at the machine gun shooting window of the tower, and the telephone line was cut. Let him have to dispatch rescue again.

There was still no attack during the march. As soon as the troops arrived at the fort, the other party quickly retreated into the mountains.

However, unlike the last time, the casualties of the garrison in the fort were much smaller this time. Only one machine gunner was hit in the shoulder, and the other was scratched by stray bullets.The opponent also consumed at least [-] rounds of ammunition, so it is unclear as to the casualties.

No matter how you look at it, the opponent is not a worthwhile battle, it is meaningless to say nothing, it is a waste of manpower and material resources.

"What the hell are these bastards trying to do?"

Many people in Hei Dao looked at the map around Meng County and began to contemplate and speculate.

But this move is obviously to attract his troops out!And every time it is attracted to the north!Then, it may be that the Eighth Route Army is trying to hide some covert operations in the south.

However, during the two dispatches, nothing happened in the south of Shou County!The other regions were equally calm, and there were no incidents of resistance against the imperial army.

The actions of the villages to collect grain went smoothly, the grain warehouses were not robbed, and the Imperial Association troops in various places were not attacked.

So, what did the other party want to do at such a high price?
After thinking about it, many people in Hei Dao couldn't figure it out.

After all, Yangquan is more than a hundred miles away from his residence in Shou County, and the Eighth Route Army used to only operate nearby, so he didn't think about it.

If he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking, but he still made some targeted arrangements.

He called for his machine gun squadron leader.

"Mr. Xiaochi, you deploy three heavy machine guns to the fortresses of Xiaosuzhuang, Jiazhuang, and Luozhuang. Remember to bring bulletproof steel."

Many people in Hei Dao said.

Didn't the Eighth Route Army like to use a large number of machine guns to shoot the shooting holes of the fortress, and to shoot and kill the machine gunners of the imperial army with high firepower?
Then I will deploy a heavy machine gun with longer range, greater power, and bulletproof steel plates!

"Hi!"

The machine gun squadron leader named Koike-kun immediately went to make arrangements.

"Your Excellency the Lieutenant Commander."

At this time, a staff officer came in outside holding a telegram, walked into the headquarters and said to the people in Hei Dao: "Telegram from Taiyuan Command!"

"Read!"

Many people from the underworld nodded and sat upright, with serious faces.

The Shouxian garrison is under the control of the First Army. This is a telegram from his immediate superior.

The staff officer changed his serious tone, as if imitating the commander's speech:
"Order: Troops stationed in various places investigate the location of Li Yunlong's Department of the Independent Regiment, and notify the First Army Command immediately after discovering it. No mistakes are allowed."

"Hi!"

After many people in Hei Dao lowered their heads, they suddenly raised their heads and repeated in doubt:

"Li Yunlong?"

"That Li Yunlong who shot and killed the leader of the Sakata Alliance at Cangyun Ridge?"

The death of Sakata made Li Yunlong very famous among the basic officers of the Japanese army.

"Hi!"

The staff officer replied: "It is this person!"

"I see···"

Many people in Hei Dao squinted their eyes and understood.

This is the Commander's plan to kill this person, a complete shame!
"Issue the order." Hei Dao said to the staff.

"Hi!"

The staff officer bowed his head and walked out of the headquarters quickly.

·····
"To attack the Liu Family Village?"

Looking at the battle plan on the table, Zhao Gang was stunned, and looked up at Li Yunlong with a surprised expression.

Did you really ask him to discuss military operations?

Wouldn't it be another time to Mingxiu plank road and secretly hide Chen Cang?

In view of Li Datuan's Guan Hui history, Zhao Gang is very suspicious of Li Yunlong.

"Hey hey..."

Li Yunlong didn't seem to see Zhao Gang's eyes, he smiled and continued:

"You also know that the regiment has recently expanded its army, and there is a lack of food, and we have no money to buy food, so I planned to go out and find some devils and puppet soldiers, so I sent people out to check around."

"According to the information I got, the old landlord of Liujiazhuang in Jiazhuang has stored a large amount of food, which is estimated to be enough for our independent regiment to consume for half a year."

Hearing this, Zhao Gang was startled suddenly.

There are thousands of people in the independent regiment, and the food consumed is not a small amount.

Seeing Zhao Gang's surprise, Li Yunlong explained:
"This Liujiazhuang is an ancestral landlord, and the family has nearly two thousand acres of land!"

"Two thousand acres!" Zhao Gang yelled out in horror, and his face became gloomy.

This number is almost half of the land of a large village.This is not something that can be obtained by normal means.It didn't take much for Zhao Gang to know that this Liujiazhuang must be a landlord and bully, like the kind in the fish and meat village.

Li Yunlong saw Zhao Gang's expression, and continued:

"That's right, the so-called Old Master Liu in Liujiazhuang is a full-fledged landlord bully. This old man has gathered a group of local ruffians to serve as housekeepers. Every year, people are killed. Even his three sons are traitors, which is very suitable for our attack. Target."

"The battle is not difficult. There are only about a hundred family guards in the Liu family compound, and a company can be captured in a few minutes. As for the devil's gun tower nearby, we will operate at night. As long as they are far away, the devil's light machine guns will not be able to hit them." to us."

"Liujiazhuang is five kilometers away from Shouxian County. It will take two hours for the devils to come here. Then we will send troops with mortars to intercept them on the road. The time is enough!"

Li Yunlong quickly explained the battle plan, and then said to Zhao Gang with a smile:

"This action, shouldn't you need to report to your superiors?"

"unnecessary."

Zhao Gang nodded.

As long as it is not a major military operation, such as a large force attacking a puppet stronghold, or storming a devil's artillery building, the rest of the small-scale operations can be decided by the front-line commanders themselves.

Ding Wei had fooled Ding Wei into the past when the Xinyi regiment besieged the devil's blockhouse twice before.There was no conflict with the devils, just taking a look at the devil's gun tower with the troops and firing some bullets.This is not training what is it?
Moreover, actions such as fighting against puppet army landlords and bullies are not difficult and can win the support of the common people, and the superiors strongly support them.

"However, this time there is a large amount of food to be transported, so a large number of people are required. I plan to bring the newly formed reinforcement battalion there. First, let this group of people see the world. Second, with more than 800 people, we can quickly send The food was transferred to the mountains."

"what do you think?"

Li Yunlong looked at Zhao Gang.

"OK, no problem."

Zhao Gang looked at the map and felt relieved after confirming that Captain Li should not be able to make a moth.

"Captain, can I act with the troops?" Zhao Gang said.

"Haha, okay!" Li Yunlong readily agreed.
