Fortunately, although the reconnaissance platoon moved a little slower, they finally came back before Lin Qungao could no longer bear the wait. After going down the mountain, he saw that the reconnaissance platoon was bringing a tightly bundled young man. Lin Qungao and
His instructor was shocked. He asked them to find a guide, not to tie up pigs. How could he tie up people? What was the difference between kidnapping and kidnapping?
Looking at the very angry battalion commander and instructor, the reconnaissance platoon leader said cheerfully: "Battal Commander, instructor, I don't have to use force. There are not many people here, but when they see us...
He hid faster than a rabbit and ran to the mountains to hide."
"It took a lot of effort to find a few people, but even though we had worn out our mouths, there was no one to guide us. They either kept their mouths shut and said nothing, or they didn't know anything about it. The superior's task still needs to be completed, and there is no other way.
We can only use force. Although this method is a bit rough, it can still be regarded as completing the task of the superior."
While Lin Qungao was listening to the report of the reconnaissance platoon leader, the instructor over there untied the frightened young man who was trembling all over. He said as calmly as possible: "Young man, don't be afraid, you are from this area."
Human beings? We are not bad people, we are the Northeastern People’s Anti-Japanese Allied Forces fighting against the Japanese and destroying Manchukuo.”
"I would like to ask, is there any other route here that can bypass the valleys around Majiazhai and go directly to Majiazhai Village? If you are not willing to show us the way, can you please point us to one?
Lu? We can pay you a certain amount and also guarantee your absolute safety."
However, no matter how pleasant the instructor was, the captured young man did not open his mouth. He just stared at his shoes and did not say a word. This young man's performance made the reconnaissance platoon leader scratch his head and said: "Instructor.
, he is not mute, he screamed quite loudly when we caught him."
"Is this kid scared? No way. Even though we tied him here, we didn't use any force on him along the way. We were afraid that he would fall after his hands and feet were tied up, so our people were carrying him along the way.
When he was on the way, I told him that as long as he showed us the way, we would put him back."
Hearing the reconnaissance platoon leader say that he was not mute, the young man raised his head and looked in front of him. He always talked to him in a friendly manner and said: "Sir, we know that you are a member of the Anti-Japanese Alliance and are dedicated to fighting the Japanese. But some time ago
The Japanese have said that if anyone leads the way or helps you, they will kill the whole village."
"We don't know if you will be retreating after this fight. If you retreat after this battle, what will happen if the little devil really takes revenge? The little devil is ruthless and will do what he says. So do we.
I have no choice but to hide when I see you."
"Last year, one of my sisters married into an uncle's family in Qingyuan County. Several people in their village joined you. After you withdrew, the entire village of hundreds of people, old and young, were all killed by the Japanese. You guys beat them.
We support the devils, but if you stay there permanently, it’s okay, but if you leave after the fight, the people will be the unlucky ones."
"The little devils never use reason when they kill people. They don't care how many people join you. Anyway, they are the so-called gangsters in one household and the whole village. It's not that we don't want to help you, it's because we really don't dare to help you.
Once you leave, if the little devils come back, they will kill you."
"It's not that I don't want to help you, but as long as I show you the way and let the little devils and those idiots know about it, the whole village will not be able to survive. Sir, we beg you, you should let go
Let me go back, my parents are still waiting for me in the mountains."
Hearing the reason why the young man stopped chewing, Lin Qungao and his instructor, while feeling a little heavy, assured him: "Don't worry, not only will we not leave this time, we will also completely liberate the entire South Manchuria."
.We want to eliminate the enemy forces in Majiazhai this time in order to completely liberate South Manchuria. Look at us tough guys, do you think the little devils can resist?"
"Don't worry, let us lead the way. This time we two promise that we will definitely not leave. How about it, young man, we two are here to guarantee you, you should believe us. We are the main military and political officers of this army.
,Are we not worthy of your belief?"
After listening to the assurances of Lin Qungao and the instructor, the young man looked at the two tanks behind him. He hesitated for a long time before nodding slightly and said: "Sir, actually, we bypassed the valleys in front and entered the tank directly.
There are no roads to Majiazhai. Most people think that the only way to enter Majiazhai is through a few surrounding valleys."
"Actually, there is another route, and you don't have to go through those valleys. You can turn from here to the direction of Shantoubao in the southwest, go around two villages on the Zhaojiagou line, and then turn to the southeast. Climb a low mountain.
There is a natural village behind the mountain pass. From there, you can bypass the mountain col in front and directly enter Majiazhai."
"Although the mountains there are not high, except for a few trails and a small river, there is no route for big guys like you to move forward. There are two rivers between that natural village and Majiazhai, but the water volume is not the same.
It’s not big, and people can cross it without any problems.”
"Between that natural village and Majiazhai, from that natural village to the river south of Majiazhai, there is a large pear forest. So from the commanding heights around Majiazhai, you can't see
Come here. The natural village is only five miles away from Majiazhai. It is basically a flat land sandwiched between two mountains.
"In the summer, I was captured by the Japs and had to dig trenches. Although I don't understand that stuff, I know that the defensive things they built in this direction seem to be very simple. Basically there is nothing, just along the river.
There are some very simple things.”
Having said this, the young man looked at Lin Qungao and the instructor in front of him, paused and said: "Two sirs, you have agreed not to leave. You must keep your word, we are a village elder.
My life is in the hands of you two officers."
After the young man finished speaking, Lin Qun Gao and his instructor looked at each other excitedly. Lin Qun Gao patted the young man and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely do what we say this time. Even if you let us go, we won't
Let's go. I promise not to let the little devil come back to harm your family and fellow villagers."
After that, Lin Qungao didn't care whether he wanted it or not, as he was afraid that the young man would run away. He immediately grabbed the young man and pulled him directly to the tank turret. After giving the order to immediately load the infantry with the tank, he did not hesitate at all.
Depart immediately.
Under the guidance of the young man, Lin Qungao and his men's roundabout operation basically went smoothly. Although when they crossed the mountain pass, the height and slope of the pass were a bit unexpected.
They expected that it would be impossible to cross directly.
In order to keep it secret, we had to pick up all the engineering shovels, dig the slope as gently as possible, and cut down some trees from the mountains on both sides to lay the ground to facilitate the passage of the tanks, which was delayed for more than an hour.
The rest of the interspersed actions are like walking by the watch, almost smooth all the way.
When his tank battalion and a cooperating infantry battalion rushed into this natural village surrounded by mountains amidst the stunned villagers, he discovered that the terrain here, except for the previous pass, was simply for the purpose.
Prepare your own, shallow, long and roundabout routes.
It is true that the entire route from this natural village to Majiazhai is full of dense pear forests, and although it is located on a terrain sandwiched between two mountains and a ditch, the mountains on both sides are not only not high, but the slopes are also quite gentle.
Your own tanks can even go directly up the mountain and move along the mountainside.
At the same time, there is a gravel-bottomed river in the pear forest that is enough for a tank to rush out. The water is no deeper than the ankle, but the width is more than ten meters. The most important thing is that it is only five miles away from Majiazhai, and
The Japanese defense in this direction seems to be as simple as the young man said.
In fact, no matter how good the Japanese army's defense is in this direction, for Lin Qungao, it is time to shoot and there is no turning back. He has been delayed for too long. If he continues to grind, he will really miss it.
Since he had no other choice, Lin Qungao was ready to go for it without any scruples.
After checking the camouflage on the tank again, as well as the tank's fuel and machine gun and artillery ammunition, Lin Qungao directly ordered that he led the first company down the river in the center, and the second and third companies directly went up the mountain. The troops were divided
The three groups rushed directly towards Majiazhai. Each tank was equipped with an infantry platoon to speed up the infantry's advance.
Lin Qungao abandoned the fixed attack route of the Anti-Japanese Alliance these days, and adopted the tactics of black tigers from another direction. If the Japanese army was in the key defense direction outside Majiazhai, they would quickly and directly break into Majiazhai.
In this small mountain village east of Zhonggu.
It was indeed a bit surprising. At present, the attacks from the east and west sides had attracted the attention of the Japanese army in Majiazhai. And as the young man said, the Japanese army's defense in this direction was very weak. His tank cluster
, when advancing towards Majiazhai, they did not encounter too many obstacles. The number of enemy troops and firepower encountered along the way can even be described as insignificant compared to other directions.
After rushing out of the woods and arriving outside Majiazhai Village, he encountered several Japanese field machine gun fortification groups and a rapid-fire artillery firepower point. These fortifications were not worth mentioning in Lin Qungao's eyes, but he ordered
The forwards used tanks to rush forward and crush all the people and equipment inside the fortifications into the ground.
If they really couldn't be crushed, they would just shoot them out like a target. When our troops had already reached the outside of the village of Majiazhai, even the Japanese troops running back and forth in the village could clearly see the situation.
Now, there is actually nothing left to hide. Whoever fires first at this time will be able to take advantage.
When Lin Qungao's tank cluster suddenly shot out from a distance of five miles from the southwest mountainous area of Majiazhai and suddenly appeared on the other side of a river east of Majiazhai, the entire Majiazhai Japanese army fell into chaos. The entire Majiazhai
No one among the Japanese troops in the stronghold expected that the enemy troops would come out from the safest place.
Because the direction from which Lin Qun Gao rushed out had always been unusually calm. Since the battle started, the Anti-Japanese Alliance and the Majiazhai front line have been attacking from three directions: west, southeast and north. Due to the terrain, the southwest direction
relationship, it did not become the offensive line of the Anti-Union Alliance.
Moreover, the terrain is a mountain col. Except for the only entrance and exit, almost all of it is surrounded by surrounding mountains. It may be possible for light infantry, but it is impossible for tanks to enter that direction. Therefore, in that direction, the Japanese army, except for some defensive
Apart from the infantry's field fortification groups, there are almost no permanent fortification groups.
