The Japanese drove a three-wheeler and ran wildly along the highway toward Heshun County.
Soon they arrived at the location where the main force of the new group ambush.
However, according to the plan, in order to lure out the Japs from Heshun County, these two Japs three-wheelers were released.
On this kind of road made of mud and stone, the speed of a three-wheeler is much faster than that of a truck, and it can even reach a speed of 60 per hour.
In order to get reinforcements as soon as possible, the two Japs pilots drove their three-wheelers as fast as they could.
In about 15 minutes, the Japanese drove a three-wheeler to Heshun County and started communicating with the Japanese in front of the city gate.
"Nani?"
"The transport team was attacked by the Eighth Route Army in Gongjiagou. The Eighth Route Army's firepower was very strong?"
In the office of the Japanese military police captain in the county seat, Zuo Jiujian, the senior commander of the Japanese military stationed in Heshun County, heard this and suddenly stood up, his tone full of anger and disbelief.
What makes him angry is that Tubalu actually causes trouble on his territory. If something happens, he won't be able to walk away with it.
What’s incredible is that tens of thousands of Japanese troops have been mopping up the Eighth Route Army base for several days, and there are still Eighth Route Army soldiers who have slipped through the net?
Zuojiu Brigade was originally affiliated with the Fourth Brigade, but the Fourth Brigade has been defeated and has not yet been rebuilt. He does not even have a superior now.
If you have something to do, you can only contact the communications department of the headquarters, but the intelligence and communications department of the raid will not take the initiative to tell his little Shaozuo.
Therefore, Tadaya Sakuma had no idea about the failure of the tens of thousands of Japanese troops.
Last night, the communications room of the headquarters had sent him a telegram, saying that a transportation team was going to stop at Heshun County and asking him to prepare for the reception.
Zuokuma Tadashi had already ordered his men to prepare lunch, but he did not expect that the transport team was ambushed by the Eighth Route Army halfway.
"Hi!"
"That's what those soldiers from the 37th Division's Baggage Regiment said!"
The brigade staff officer and Dao Jingde said for the first time.
Zakuma Tadashi narrowed his eyes: "There is no problem with the identity of those soldiers, right?"
"No problem." Kaneshima Keitoku said, "Identity tags and military discs have been checked, and the identity is confirmed."
The military handheld disc is the military ID card, and the ID card is the Japanese name and unit number. Only when the two match, the identity is correct.
After a pause, Kanejima Keitoku said tentatively: "Captain, you mean, this is probably a trap?"
Zakuma Tadashi touched his chin and said: "It may not be a trap, but it is always right to be careful. Our fourth brigade was almost completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army. These mud-legged people are quite powerful. There is no need to leave the city. It is better not to leave the city.
Bar."
"Captain, what about the transport team?" Kanejima Keitoku asked, "Are we just going to watch the supplies of the raiding troops being snatched away by the Eighth Route Army?"
Zakuma Tadashi hesitated for a moment. He now wanted to capture those heavy baggage soldiers and deal with them secretly, as if nothing had happened.
But in the end, reason prevailed over impulse.
"Order, the first and second brigades of the Imperial Army and the Imperial Alliance Army brigades are assembled and on standby."
"Immediately send electricity to the communications room of the headquarters, report the attack on the transport team to the headquarters, and request tactical guidance!"
"Hi!" Kanejima Keitoku said, then walked out quickly.
…
Shanxi.
Taiyuan.
Japanese First Army Headquarters, Commander's Office.
"Nani?"
"The transport team delivering supplies to the mopping up troops was attacked 15 kilometers north of Heshun?"
After hearing the news, Yoshio Shinozuka's expression changed, he put down the documents in his hands, and stood up abruptly.
There were more than 70 trucks, each loaded with 3,000 kilograms of military supplies, a total of 210,000 kilograms of supplies.
It is enough to support 30,000 mopping up troops to continue mopping up the base area in southeastern Shanxi for another seven or eight days.
If something happens to this batch of supplies, we can only order a withdrawal, because the supplies carried by the mopping up troops have been exhausted and can only last for another two or three days.
Like Tadashi Saakuma, Yoshio Shinozuka looked puzzled, how could there be a Eighth Route Army there?
Could it be that the main force of the Eighth Route Army had escaped long ago? The 30,000 raiding troops swept away Lonely?
"Hi!" Communications Staff Officer Toshimatsu Kasai said after a pause, "Jiu Shaozuo, stationed in Heshunzuo, would like to ask for tactical guidance."
Yoshio Shinozuka said without hesitation, his tone was cold and stern: "Immediately order Master Zuo to lead his troops to the rescue. If anything happens to the transport team, Master Zuo will have a caesarean section to thank the emperor."
From this telegram, he had already sensed that Zuojiu Shaozuo didn't really want to rush for help, otherwise he wouldn't have said anything about asking for tactical guidance.
"Rush for reinforcements?" Kasai Toshimatsu said hesitantly, "Your Excellency, Commander, could this be an eight-pronged plan to encircle the point and call for reinforcements?"
Shinozuka Yoshio said: "As long as it is not Li Yunlong's troops who ambush the transport team, there will be no problem. Moreover, even if this is a treacherous plot by the Eighth Route Army, the Zuojiu Brigade must rush to the rescue. This batch of military supplies must not fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army."
"Hi!" Kasai Toshiatsu said, then walked to the communication room next door.
…
In Heshun County, the gendarmerie headquarters.
"idiot!"
"Can't Commander Shinozuka see that this is a treacherous plot by the Eighth Route Army to encircle the enemy?"
Zakuma Tadashi angrily crumpled the telegram into a ball and threw it on the floor, his face becoming extremely ugly.
If he failed to complete his mission and had to perform a dissection to apologize, he would have no way out.
If you go to rescue, you will probably die, but if you don't go, you will definitely die. Having a caesarean section to apologize is no joke.
Chief of Staff and Shima Kage Totton, he stood a little far away from Tadashi Zuakuma. He knew the captain's temper very well. Once he got angry, he would find someone to slap him in the face.
He didn't want to get into trouble, and the feeling of being slapped in the face was unpleasant.
"Order, the First Squadron immediately takes a car and rushes to Gongjiagou for reinforcements!"
"The Second Squadron and the Independent Brigade of the Royal Association Army went on foot to support!"
Taking a deep breath, Zuo Kuma Tadashi picked up the Shao Zuo command sword on the table and said to the staff with a calm expression.
"Hi!" Staff officer Shima Jingtoku breathed a sigh of relief, paused and walked quickly outside.
The Zuojiu brigade also has some trucks, but not many, only 8, which are used for support and rapid maneuvers.
The artillery towers and strongholds on the Pingliao Highway are often attacked by the Eighth Route Army. Having a convoy can quickly rush to the rescue.
However, the Japanese's resources are really poor and they cannot mechanize all their troops. A brigade with 8 trucks is considered wealthy.
Unfortunately, the Japanese trucks were too small, and eight trucks were only enough to carry one squadron of soldiers.
After receiving the order, the two Japanese three-wheelers took the lead and came towards Gongjiagou with 8 trucks loaded with Japanese soldiers with guns and live ammunition.
…
The battle in Gongjiagou is coming to an end.
There were only about 250 Japanese soldiers responsible for escorting more than 70 trucks.
It is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of troops, firepower and terrain.
The Japanese were trapped at the bottom of the ditch, and in desperation began to charge to the death.
"Keep shooting and hit the Japanese who come up!"
Chen Dugu sneered, times have changed, let you little devils know what firepower is king.
Chen Dugu, who was reimbursed, did not let the soldiers rush down to fight hand-to-hand, but continued to name the Japanese with his superior firepower.
It’s not that you don’t save bullets, but that you can practice marksmanship well and greatly reduce the casualties of the troops.
Everything…
Bang bang bang…
Machine guns and large-caliber heavy machine guns opened fire.
The Japanese who rushed halfway were either beaten to pieces by machine cannons or shot in two by large-caliber heavy machine guns.
The dense rain of bullets poured down, and the Japanese couldn't stand it any longer. Knowing that the eighth route would not be blocked, they got under the car one after another.
However, there were still machine guns and large-caliber heavy machine guns that struck the trucks. The fuel tanks of the two trucks were exploded, and two fireballs were ignited with a loud bang.
When Chen Dugu saw that this was not going to work, the regiment leader ordered most of the supplies to be seized. He then filled the two shell guns with bullets, inserted one shell gun into the holster, held the other in his left hand, and held a ghost head knife in his right hand.
.
"Corpser, blow the charge horn!"
All are…
Behind Chen Dugu, a loud and exciting charge bugle sounded.
Hearing the sound of the trumpet, the soldiers of the county brigade instantly became excited. The Eighth Route Army soldiers jumped up and rushed toward the car like a tiger descending a mountain.
The Japanese got out from under the cars one after another and started hand-to-hand combat with the Eighth Route Army.
Chen Dugu held the ghost-head knife in his right hand and hid the shell gun behind his back in his left hand. He almost rushed to the front, when he faced a short but very strong Japanese man holding a 38 rifle and shouting that he was charging toward him.
Just when the two sides were a few meters away, the Japs were about to raise their guns and shoot, but Chen Dugu was faster. He raised his left hand like lightning and pulled the trigger at the same time.
The Japanese had a bloody hole in his forehead, and the military cap on his head was blown away by bullets from the rifle. He fell to the ground with eyes wide open and a look of reluctance on his face.
This wave is when Lao Liu meets Lao Yin Coin.
The soldiers of the county brigade also learned some of the essence of Chen Dugu's insidious tricks, and they knew how to cooperate with each other just by looking at each other.
When there were soldiers fighting with the Japs in the front, the other soldiers would understand and go around and stab the Japs in the waist from behind.
…
The main 1st Battalion and Heavy Machine Gun Battalion of the New Regiment are located five kilometers away from Gongjiagou.
"Old Li, listen."
"There is no movement over Gongjiagou. The battle should be over. How many trophies have been captured?"
Beside Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang whispered.
With a distance of five kilometers and two hills in the middle, the sound of gunfire could not be transmitted, but the sound of artillery could be heard.
Li Yunlong sounded confident: "It must be a lot. How can the transportation team that delivers supplies to the Japanese mopping up troops get so little supplies?"
"That's true..." Zhao Gang said, "Our new regiment is also lucky. We happened to be ordered by the brigade headquarters to fight guerrillas in this area."
"The regimental commander, political commissar, and lookout posts have sent out signals."
Zhang Dabiao carried a ghost machete on his back, an MP40 submachine gun on his chest, and a shell gun on his left and right sides. He ran over and whispered.
Armed to the teeth.
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang quickly raised their binoculars and looked at the lookout post. The scouts on the lookout post had already brought down the dead trees.
"The Japanese came a little too fast?" Li Yunlong's tone was surprised, but his eyes were very calm.
Zhao Gang's expression suddenly changed and he said, "It seems to be a Japanese convoy?"
Zhang Dabiao listened for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, it's the sound of a truck."
Not long after, two Japanese three-wheelers appeared from the corner, followed by a truck full of Japanese.
"Captain." Zhang Dabiao asked in a low voice, "Should we fight?"
In the field of view of the telescope, Li Yunlong counted the number of Japanese trucks. First he narrowed his eyes slightly, and then shook his head: "There are only 8 vehicles, at most one squadron. Let this Japanese army go and leave it to the third battalion and the county brigade."
