When the sky was bright, Tang Cheng, who was sleeping in the dark, was woken up by Song Tieshan, whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. Although Song Tieshan, who had not slept all night, looked a little haggard, the excitement in his eyes was very obvious. At the end of the battle last night, Song Tieshan was like this
With an expression on his face, after cleaning the battlefield and counting all the loot, Song Tieshan came to harass Tang Cheng impatiently. He was eager to share his joy with Tang Cheng.
The sleepy Tang Cheng didn't know the purpose of Song Tieshan's visit. He understood everything just by looking at Song Tieshan's expression of getting rich overnight. Tang Cheng didn't say anything, just waiting for Song Tieshan to speak first. "Company Commander Tang, do you know how much loot we have seized?
"?" As soon as Song Tieshan spoke, Tang Cheng almost laughed. This guy really came here to show off. Song Tieshan didn't know that Tang Cheng already knew his purpose, and he was just showing off to Tang Cheng.
"Including the trophies we seized at the hillock, we now have 86 intact rifles, 2 mortars, two grenade launchers, 3,000 rounds of bullets, 53 melon grenades of the little devil, and two more
Light machine gun." The more Song Tieshan talked, the more excited he became. When he was so excited, he even waved his arms to the rhythm of his words. "If these were placed in my old army, these trophies would be enough to form an infantry company.
.”
As a loyal listener, Tang Cheng did not lose his mind because of Song Tieshan's excitement. He rubbed his face several times, and Tang Cheng interrupted Song Tieshan's excitement. "Captain Song, the ambush of the Japanese army at Tugang and last night's victory were only temporary.
, once the Japanese infiltration troops across the river are organized into small groups and complete the assembly of large units, we will not have many chances to successfully ambush the Japanese troops. Besides, the casualties of your guerrillas are not small. I think you should leave here as soon as possible.
Waiting to be finally wiped out by the Japanese army here."
Song Tieshan was confused by Tang Cheng's words. He came to Tang Cheng not to let Tang Cheng pour cold water on him. This was different from what he expected. "Company Commander Tang, what do you mean? We just won the battle."
, you should be thinking about how to use these weapons and equipment to expand the guerrillas, why do you suddenly say you want to evacuate Lijia Pu?" Staring at a pair of bloodshot eyes, Song Tieshan looked at Tang Cheng, trying to see from Tang Cheng's face
Abnormal movement.
Tang Cheng, who was being stared at closely by Song Tieshan, had the same expression as usual, and even his eyes did not change. Song Tieshan's expression gradually solidified. He knew that what Tang Cheng had just said was not a joke. "Captain Song, put the spoils first."
Aside from mentioning it, do you know how many people are left in your guerrilla team? How many people are left in the guerrilla team that came to support you?" Tang Cheng glanced sideways at Song Tieshan, then slowly got up from the bed,
"I asked the stone to count the number of people last night. Now you two guerrillas only have 19 people left, including 5 seriously wounded and 6 lightly wounded."
"Captain Song, there are only eight of your guerrillas left who can continue to fight with guns. With this few manpower, do you think it makes sense to continue to keep Lijiapu? You won't wait until you recruit enough
Without the manpower, the Japanese army crossing the river will overwhelm this place. You and your people will not be able to stop them at all, and the weapons and equipment you captured will eventually be recaptured by the Japanese army." Tang Cheng's words were no less than a thunderous sound, and the people were stunned.
The thing that Song Tieshan didn't want to face the most was revealed.
The guerrilla force he formed in Lijiapu originally had more than 30 people, plus more than 40 people from Miao Changsheng's guerrilla force. In just three battles a day and a night, only 19 people were killed or injured. Only 8 were still alive.
The fighting guerrillas probably couldn't stop even an infantry squad of the Japanese army with this small amount of manpower. Song Tieshan's expression began to become solemn. Maybe what Tang Cheng said just now made some sense.
Seeing that Song Tieshan's expression began to relax, Tang Cheng continued, "Don't look at the more than 3,000 rounds of ammunition that were seized. If there was a real exchange of fire with the Japanese army, just the continuous firepower of the two light machine guns, 3,000 rounds of ammunition would not be enough for the machine gun to fight a battle.
"Tangcheng did not tell Song Tieshan that those trophies were the figures after Lao Dongbei's private division. If you include the bullets in the backpacks of Lao Dongbei and Liu Shitou, the actual number of bullets captured by these two groups of Japanese soldiers should be more than 4,000 rounds.
"Eat first. Let's discuss this matter after dinner." Song Tieshan couldn't come up with an idea after much thought, so he had to take advantage of the situation and change the topic. The most important thing now is to hold down the three people in Tangcheng.
As long as Tangcheng and the others can stay, other things can be discussed later. At the cost of only three people being killed, Jiuzi Tugang successfully ambushed dozens of Japanese soldiers. Last night's arrangement also killed all the Japanese soldiers who entered the village.
After being killed, Song Tieshan was so impressed by Tang Cheng's ability that he was willing to let Tang Cheng and the others leave easily.
Breakfast was just mixed noodles and porridge, but there was a big pot of meat on the table. Song Tieshan said that a horse in the village was killed by the Japanese army yesterday, and it was nothing serious anyway, so he just peeled it and cooked it in a pot, which was just in time.
Come here to satisfy everyone's hunger. The guerrillas are accustomed to gathering together to eat. There are only three of them and Song Tieshan who came to keep company at the table in Tangcheng. Tangcheng doesn't have big requirements for food, but Lao Dongbei and Liu Shitou are the two.
People praised the pot of horse meat so much that their mouths were filled with oil.
After finishing the meal and wiping his mouth, he brought up old things in Tangcheng again, "Captain Song, we agreed yesterday that we will help your guerrillas get through this, and then we will continue to go south. Now the Japanese troops have been surrounded and killed.
Here in Lijiapu, it's time for us to say goodbye. If you guerrillas decide to leave Lijiapu, maybe we can still walk together for a while."
Hearing Tang Cheng say he was leaving, the guerrillas squatting in the yard to eat all looked at Song Tieshan eagerly, especially Tieniu and Gouzi, who stood up. They were hoping that Song Tieshan could take Tang Cheng and the three of them away.
Stay. "Captain Song, you may not know that we captured a few people alive when we were cleaning the battlefield last night. I have already asked that there is more than one Japanese army crossing the river. There are many Japanese infiltration troops like theirs.
Yes, these two Japanese squads we ran into are just two of them."
"I don't know how these Japanese troops communicated with each other, but they couldn't just mess around like chickens. As long as they learned that two teams had broken up in Lijiapu, I don't think they would just sit back and watch.
Ignore it. You only have so many people now, and it is impossible to ambush the Japanese army. Since you no longer have the ability to ambush the Japanese army, you should not stick to Lijia Pu, but leave here before the Japanese army blocks the south passage.
, only when the space for maneuvering is larger can your guerrillas continue to play their role."
Although Tang Cheng's rhetoric failed to make Song Tieshan's face improve, Song Tieshan agreed with Tang Cheng's words in his heart. The guerrillas relied on flexible and mobile combat, and were good at small-scale ambushes and sneak attacks. If they were really blocked by the Japanese army, Here, the greatest advantage of the guerrillas will be lost. "Captain Tang, you keep saying this, maybe you are afraid of the little devil." One of the guerrillas squatting in the yard stood up. Tang Cheng looked over at the sound and saw that it was a kid. The one who looks familiar should be one of Miao Changsheng's subordinates.
"I remembered, Captain Tang, you are **'s people. What ** is best at is retreating. You have already evacuated from Shanghai and Nanjing to our Hubei province. It doesn't matter if you withdraw more." Liu Shitou was so angry at the words of the guerrillas that he threw the bowl in his hand, and Lao Dongbei rolled up his sleeves. He looked like he was about to fight. Tang Cheng didn't say anything. After all, what he said was right. The Anti-Japanese War was not fake, and it was unprepared that some troops were just going through the muddy waters. Coupled with the blind command from above, the reputation of the Communist Party has long been ruined on the streets.
"Xiao Hu, shut up. Company Commander Tang and the others are all people who are sincerely resisting Japan. You can't kill a whole boatload of people with one stroke. Our superiors have long said that we must treat people who are sincerely resisting Japan differently." Song Tieshan dared to turn a blind eye. Watching Lao Dongbei rush over, he stretched out his hand to hold Lao Dongbei tightly, and at the same time scolded Xiao Hu, who had just spoken. Xiao Hu, who was scolded by Song Tieshan, did not reply, and squatted down to eat again, but there was a gap between Xiao Hu and Song Tieshan. Their eyes met and Tang Cheng looked at them seriously.
Tang Cheng, who was laughing secretly, couldn't help but shake his head. In order to get him to stay, Song Tieshan really used all kinds of methods. Song Tieshan told him a lot of truth, and then begged him hard. Seeing that neither of these methods worked, Now even the black and red face is used. According to the singing method of the black and red face, this Xiao Hu will be scolded by Song Tieshan before he clearly expresses his position. As expected, it is what Tang Cheng thought. Seeing that Tang Cheng's expression did not change, Song Tieshan had no choice but to He scolded Xiao Hu severely. If Tang Cheng hadn't stopped him, Song Tieshan might have put Xiao Hu in solitary confinement.
"Captain Song, we really have some things to do. If we hadn't escorted the Han family across the river to visit relatives, we might not have stopped at Lijiapu. It's a pity that the five members of the Han family could not escape the bad luck. Since we There are no more escorts, so we have to deal with our own affairs. We belong to the 88th Division and we can't just wander around like this." Tang Cheng did not say the complete words, but Song Tieshan already knew about Tang Cheng meaning and decision.
Regardless of whether Tang Cheng and the others are leaving or staying, after yesterday's battle, Tang Cheng and the others can be regarded as comrades who have fought side by side with the guerrillas. Based on the principle of good separation and good separation, Song Tieshan made the decision when sending Tang Cheng and the others out of the village. They also sent 200 more bullets and 10 grenades to Tang Cheng and the others. Seeing Liu Shitou sitting cross-legged in the carriage with a sad face, Tang Cheng smiled and looked at Li's shop getting further and further away, and said in a deep voice, "It doesn't matter, let's slow down a little. I think Captain Song and the others will definitely catch up."
