Chapter 682 Grain Requisition
"Well done, it would be great if you could make a Japanese squadron surrender without firing a single shot!"
"Captain, why is it so difficult for you to praise me?"
"Because I think you can do better. For example, you just revealed to them that we only have one platoon."
Zhao Zhiguo pointed to the puppet company commander on one side.
Apparently the puppet company commander had overheard the conversation between the two men. When he learned that Yao Pengju only had one platoon, he asked them to put down their weapons. His eyes were filled with resentment.
"If you hear it, just hear it. Anyway, the gun is already in our hands. Even if there is only one squad now, they don't dare to do anything to us. Brothers, come out and take away the gun, bullets and grenades."
"Report, the puppet army is still ten minutes away from Xiaoxinzhuang!"
The scouts returned at this time, and the puppet company commander heard that their large force was about to arrive, and he was so angry that he almost spit out blood.
"Boy, I bet you are lucky. If it weren't for the sake of your captain, one of your brothers would have an ear cut off, and you would be shot by me."
Before leaving, Yao Pengju couldn't help but threaten the puppet company commander.
"Send a message to Cui Rongxing and tell him thank you for his equipment. I will go to Wangxian to treat him to dinner in the future!"
Zhao Zhiguo also didn't expect to blow up the Japs' tanks and armored vehicles, and even get a company's weapons and ammunition.
Zhao Zhiguo and his troops had just left Xiaoxinzhuang when Cui Rongxing arrived with his troops.
After learning that Zhao Zhiguo had left with his troops and that his troops had been disarmed by Zhao Zhiguo, Cui Rongxing slapped the puppet company commander.
"After I returned home, I kept my mouth shut about today's matter. The shame was thrown at my grandma's house. Will the imperial army still dare to use us in the future? After I returned, I told them the same story, saying that you were ambushed by the Chinese army!
"
Cui Rongxing is only thinking about how to explain to Chuan Yuezhi after he returns.
In fact, Kawazuki Chi doesn't care whether the puppet army can achieve results, because he also understands the combat effectiveness of the puppet army.
The reason why the puppet troops were allowed to go out was just to try their luck.
Just like the army has been losing battles all the time, if one day the blind cat really encounters a dead mouse and wins the battle, wouldn't it be a big surprise?
But Kawazuki was still very annoyed that the puppet army had lost a company of weapons and equipment.
Although the weapons of the puppet army lacked maintenance and were all in pieces, they still had two machine guns.
Soon they would go to the countryside to collect grain again, and they still needed to rely on the puppet army. Chuan Yuezhi didn't want to have a stalemate with Cui Rongxing at this time, so he could only agree to Cui Rongxing to transport a batch of weapons and equipment from Pingcheng as soon as possible.
Unless absolutely necessary, the little devil will not give the weapons and equipment he uses to the puppet army.
The weapons and equipment they provided were all seized from the Chinese army. For example, when they attacked Pingcheng, the guns that could not be transported away from the Pingcheng arsenal were all used to equip the puppet troops.
These weapons are basically idle in the warehouse, and they can still play some role when they are delivered to the puppet troops.
Zhao Zhiguo and the others gained a lot. He also disliked the weapons of the puppet soldiers, but the bullets carried by the puppet soldiers were still sufficient.
The standard ammunition for an individual Japanese soldier is 120 rounds, the number of bullets carried by the puppet soldiers is 60 rounds, and each soldier carries four grenades.
"The little devil will soon go to the countryside to collect food. When we return this time, we should also arrange for the troops to enter Wang County in batches."
This operation in Wang County took them a lot of time, and the Japanese army only blocked Wang County for three days.
Now the little devil is checking suspicious people in Wangxian County.
If Chuan Yuezhi knew that Cui Rongxing personally sent Zhao Zhiguo out of the county, he would definitely have Cui Rongxing quartered.
However, as the time for the grain requisition drew closer, Chuan Yuezhi had to focus on the deployment of the grain requisition.
Now that the armored force was destroyed, he could only rely on his own infantry.
"Start from the village closest to Wang County, and have a squadron of troops on standby at any time. Whenever something happens, get on the truck and provide support immediately!"
The machine gun squadron and an infantry squadron were guarding Wang County to prevent them from sending troops out to collect food. Zhao Zhiguo sent troops to capture Chuan Yuezhi's lair.
One squadron was divided into small groups to follow the puppet troops to the countryside, and the other squadron served as a mobile unit. Their trucks were also on standby for support at any time.
After arranging everything, Chuan Yuezhi's troops began to collect grain from the villages near Wang County.
Cui Rongxing did his duty conscientiously. After receiving the order to collect grain, he immediately arranged for someone to notify Zhao Zhiguo.
Although he wanted to kill Zhao Zhiguo quietly, he still had to do things for Zhao Zhiguo when his control was in Zhao Zhiguo's hands.
"How is it? Do you know the strength and arrangements of the Japanese army?"
Zhao Zhiguo shared the intelligence with the company commanders under him. In this battle, each company commander will lead his troops to act alone. If they encounter a large-scale attack by the Japanese troops, they may also gather their troops and follow them.
The Japanese army fought a big battle.
"Now that everything is clear, let me tell you the purpose of this battle. The first is to smash the Japanese army's plan to go to the countryside to collect food. The second is to bring out as many of our soldiers as possible. We must not be reluctant to fight, but we found that
Fighters can eat up the enemy, but we will never show mercy!"
The little Japs were huddled in Wangxian County, just like a fist, and there was nothing Zhao Zhiguo could do against them.
But the little devil left the protection of the county and stretched out his hands. They wanted to cut off the little devil's fingers one by one.
"Instructor, you follow Gao Cang. Tian Kezhi, you should stay in Anyang Town. I will leave two companies of troops for you. If something happens, notify me immediately."
Anyang Town is currently Zhao Zhiguo's only rear area. Of course, Zhao Zhiguo must first ensure the stability of his rear area.
"Gao Cang, Qin Dongsheng, you leave one company and the machine gun company behind. Each company in action can only carry one mortar and cannot carry heavy machine guns. It also carries grenades and our homemade mines."
This battle is mainly guerrilla, and carrying heavy weapons is not conducive to the rapid movement and transfer of troops.
In particular, the Japanese army had trucks, relied on roads, could arrive quickly, and carried heavy machine guns and other weapons, but it would slow down the marching speed of Zhao Zhiguo and his troops.
"Yao Pengju, your troops put on Japanese military uniforms and go to the villages below to collect grain from the landlords in the name of the Japanese army!"
The Japs need food, and Zhao Zhiguo and the others also need food, and the food storage areas have been built and must not be left empty.
"Isn't this too boring? Let's just sneak into Jinwang County and kidnap that old devil Chuan Yuezhi!"
