On a hill on the south side of the Liudaohezi Japanese Pioneer Corps, Peng Dingjie was sent away. Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun, who led the team to rush towards Liudaohezi, were crouching in a bush and carefully observing the Japanese Liudao at the foot of the mountain with binoculars.
The situation at the headquarters of the Hezi Pioneer Regiment and its surroundings. [.Com text]
After a long time, Guo Bingxun, who put down the telescope first, pointed to the foot of the mountain and said: "Old Yang, we have carefully observed Sanguliu, Daqingchuan, and the Liudaohezi pioneering group along the way. Among the three pioneering groups, this one belongs to
The pioneering group is the largest and is located furthest south. If we start from here, we can quickly evacuate after a successful attack."
"But the biggest shortcoming here is that it is too close to the Japanese and puppet military police, and the terrain is too flat. Not counting the Japanese and puppet troops who are still searching for us around Wudaoling, there is a puppet forest police in Liudaohezi alone
There are more than a hundred people in the team, as well as more than 30 policemen from the Liudaohezi branch of the pseudo-police."
"The Puppet Manchukuo policemen at the Liudaohezi Police Station are nothing more than the forest policemen. I heard Lao Peng say that these forest policemen were specially set up by the Japanese army to suppress the Anti-Japanese Alliance activities in the mountains and forests. They have strong combat effectiveness and good equipment. They can even compete with
They are comparable to the elites of the puppet Manchukuo army. Most of these forest policemen are familiar with jungle warfare, mountain warfare, and are extremely familiar with the terrain."
"If what Lao Peng said is true, we must find a way to get rid of these people. According to our current situation, there is almost no chance of winning against them. And if we are entangled by them, it will be difficult for us to escape even if we enter the mountain. After all,
People here are the local snakes.”
Regarding Guo Bingxun's concerns, Yang Zhen smiled slightly and said: "Old Guo, you are from the regular army and are good at regular combat. I'm afraid guerrilla fighting is not your strong point. However, your thinking should have changed now.
:
"You are right. The terrain here is relatively flat, and judging from the surrounding situation of the enemy and ourselves, given our current situation, this place is not suitable for a head-on battle with the Japanese and puppet troops."
"But we have an advantage, that is, now we are in the dark, and the enemy is in the open. Although the distance between the Japs, the pioneering regiment station, and the Liudaohezi Puppet Manchukuo police station is very close, it is only a few miles away. But there are many obstacles on both sides.
It is a crop field that has grown up, and the hills separated in the middle are also full of corn."
"The height of these crops can now completely conceal a troop of more than a hundred people. If we ambush the next troop between the Japanese and puppet army garrison and the Japanese pioneer group, wait for the police to come over, and concentrate our firepower to attack, you
Can we achieve tactical surprise?"
"In this case, Lao Guo, we will launch an attack at dusk. You lead a hundred brothers to attack the Japs' pioneering group. I will lead the remaining brothers to ambush in that crop field and use the cover of the green gauze tent to provide reinforcements."
"I will leave two machine guns for you to provide fire support, and the other machine guns are under my command. I will use intensive firepower to reach their reinforcements in the shortest time. If you are lucky, you will not only be able to eat these forest policemen, but
We can replenish some equipment and even pave the way for our future activities.”
Hearing Yang Zhen's thoughts, Guo Bingxun pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll do it as you want. But I can't use these people here, leaving me seventy people is enough. Didn't you just interrogate the person?
There are only more than seventy Japanese in the Japanese pioneering group, and their weapons are only about twenty rifles and no heavy weapons. Apart from that, are the rest all old, weak, women and children?"
"To deal with the regular Japanese and puppet troops, we may need to have as much strength advantage as possible. To deal with these Japanese farmers, these 100 people are a bit too much. With equal strength, we can't beat the regular army that fights the Japanese. We can't beat the Japanese."
If we still can't defeat the farmers, we really won't have the face to face the world."
"Lao Guo, it's not that I trust the fighting power of my brothers, nor that I don't trust your abilities. Before Lao Peng left, he either said repeatedly that many of these Japanese pioneers were retired soldiers of the regular Japanese army, or the rest
They have also received a lot of military training on daily basis. They still have a certain degree of fighting ability, which must not be underestimated. They suffered a lot from the losses of these Japanese farmers in the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War."
At this point, Yang Zhen changed the subject and said: "Lao Guo, when you take a hundred brothers, don't worry about the other scattered households and directly destroy his headquarters. The reason why I used dusk to launch the attack is to take advantage of the opportunity.
At dusk, when the Japanese are having dinner, our defenses should be relaxed. This will help us stay concealed and engage with the enemy as much as possible."
"Take your brothers and use the backlight to get as close to the Japs as possible. I just observed that although the Japs have built some defenses at their headquarters, they have not yet been completed. As long as we can get as close as possible to their headquarters,
By launching a sudden attack, we should not cause too many casualties."
Seeing that Yang Zhen insisted on evenly distributing troops, although he disagreed, Guo Bingxun, who was extremely obedient, said nothing more. In fact, he knew that Yang Zhen was unwilling to distribute troops evenly in this way from the bottom of his heart.
But Peng Dingjie's repeated warnings before leaving made Yang Zhen somewhat hesitant. The reason why he tried his best to mobilize troops to deal with the pioneering group who did not have many weapons was because he wanted to solve the defense as quickly as possible. Regardless of whether he
How is the fight for reinforcements going? The most important thing is to get rid of these pioneering groups as soon as possible.
Yang Zhen didn't want to spend too long in this place, which was only twenty kilometers away from Zhuhe County and only more than ten kilometers away from the Binsui Railway. Because he knew that once the battle was delayed, even if he could wipe out all the puppet Manchukuo police forces in Liudaohezi
, but the Japanese and puppet troops along the Zhuhe County and Binsui Railway will reinforce here as quickly as possible.
Returning to the temporary resting place, the young man who was about to go into the mountains to collect firewood and was arrested as a spy saw Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun. He quickly stood up and asked cautiously: "Two officers, please ask.
Regarding the pioneering group, you don’t look like Japanese, so are you resisting the Alliance?”
Hearing this question from the young man who had provided him with all the information about this generation of Japanese puppet troops and the Japanese pioneering group in front of him, Yang Zhen glanced at him, hesitated slightly and said: "Yes, we are the Anti-Alliance."
After Yang Zhen's words fell, a trace of joy flashed in the young man's eyes: "It's fine that you are members of the Anti-League. Then please give me a gun. I will also fight the Japanese with you and kill these damn little guys."
Devil."
"Two sirs, you don't know that these little devils have made people in our area suffer. At the beginning of the year, the little devils, led by the county police, suddenly came to our Gada and said they wanted to buy our land.
But they only pay ten yuan for one acre of land, which is not even enough for 10% of the land price."
"The land in our Gada is all mature land and good farmland. As long as God is kind and doesn't cause droughts or floods, the people here will have a lot of surplus in addition to the grain they harvest for themselves.
"
"My family has six acres of irrigated land and twelve acres of hillside land. Before the Japs came, we lived a very prosperous life. In addition to the usual food and drink, there was a lot left over from the year's harvest. But what kind of pioneering mission did the Japs set up?
, forcefully took away my family’s land.”
"They give us ten yuan for an acre of land. What's the difference between this little money and free robbery? My family's eighteen acres of land were given a total of one hundred yuan. This land is the lifeblood of the farmers. Without it, we will starve.
Damn it. If they want to buy land, they should buy it at a price similar to the one they robbed for nothing. Let us do it."
"But we can't sell it. There are several families in our Gada who refused to sell it, and they were dragged to Liudaohezi and picked out in public with bayonets. Even if we ordinary people know that this land is equivalent to giving away to others, we can't.
I have to give it away too.”
"This little devil has taken over our land, demolished our houses, and forced us to work as long-term laborers for them. Those of us who have lost our land and cannot survive can only go to Tangyuan to dig coal or be evicted.
Go to the uninhabited areas further north to reclaim wasteland. Otherwise, we will have to work long-term jobs for these little devils."
"You can't go there to dig coal. I heard that the little devils there don't even treat us as human beings. After the spring land was confiscated here, dozens of people left. In less than half a year, only a few came back, and the rest were all
He died over there. We can’t go to the north either. It’s all raw land and only grass grows but not food. In order to survive, I can only work as a long-term laborer for them.”
"My father was beaten to death when he was young, because the land that my grandfather had opened was almost exhausted and the Japanese bought it for 180 yuan, and he was very angry to death. My uncle and one of my brothers-in-law refused to sell the land.
, he picked me alive with bayonets. I hated these little devils. They took away my family’s land and made my father angry to death. They forced me to work for him and even killed two of my relatives.
"
The young man's words made Yang Zhen carefully observe this young man again. As soon as he saw them inquiring about the Japanese pioneering group, he thought they were resisting the alliance. Not only did he proactively provide information, but he also asked to participate.
Yang Zhen observed very carefully, not only looking at the calluses on his hands that were worn by the hoe, but also carefully looking at the way he walked before saying: "What is your name and how old are you this year? Who else is there in the family? You
Do you think we are part of the Resistance Alliance?”
"My name is Liu Laogen, and I am eighteen years old this year. I lost my mother when I was young, and I was raised by several sisters. My sisters have all been married now, and I am the only one left in the family after my father died."
"The one who was killed by the Japanese was my eldest brother-in-law. Among the sisters, I am the closest to the eldest sister, and my eldest brother-in-law has always regarded me as his biological brother. I joined the Anti-League to avenge him."
"Although you are wearing Japs' skins, you all speak in Chinese. And the military uniforms you are wearing, the Japs can't be in such tatters. And if you ask me about the pioneering group, this is all arranged by the little Japs.
They don’t know? Why bother asking?”
"As for those officials in Manchukuo, apart from flattering the little devils and asking for help, they will never inquire about anything with people like us. Let alone ask such detailed questions. So I can tell at a glance that you are not devils.
Nor are they from Manchukuo."
Hearing this young man say his name, Yang Zhen, who was drinking water from the kettle, almost sprayed Guo Bingxun's face with a mouthful of water. Liu Laogen? Why does this name sound so familiar? It seems like a name he has seen in later generations.
The name of a trashy TV series starring a certain so-called comedian.
However, although he thought this guy's name was funny, Yang Zhen quite admired this young man's cleverness and sharp eyesight.
It took a lot of effort to suppress his smile. Yang Zhen patted the young man on the shoulder and said, "I mean, Lao Gen, you are familiar with this place, right? You are a long-term worker in the pioneering group of the little devil."
, I believe you are familiar with their place? Can you take us as close as possible?"
"It's very familiar. I have grown up here since I was a child, and I know every plant and tree here. I am more familiar with the little devil's headquarters. Little devil, I am very familiar with their place. Their headquarters occupies this place.
A courtyard belonging to the largest landowner. The landowner is my uncle. I often go there to play, and I know where there are dog holes."
"The little Japs just brought six carts of grain and a batch of guns and ammunition in a big truck the day before yesterday. They said they were for the new Japs who came last autumn and the families of those who came before. There is a dog hole next to the place where they were piled up.
.You guys don’t know about this dog hole, but I can take you in directly from there.”
Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun looked at each other after hearing this, and both found the joy that could not be concealed in the other's eyes. Six cars of food, at least about six tons. This food can at least meet the needs of the army for a month. Not to mention that there is also a batch of guns and ammunition.
.
After receiving this extremely useful news, Yang Zhen did not hesitate at all, and immediately nodded and said: "Okay, Lao Gen, I agree to your application to join the army. When it gets dark, you will take Chief Guo into the Japanese prison."
Headquarters. If you surrender the gun, you will be given one."
Hearing that the officer in front of him agreed to join the army, Liu Laogen immediately stood up and said excitedly: "Okay, sir, don't worry. Where those little devils live, they usually move there, usually at that time.
I know what to do. I promise to bring this officer and brothers in without alerting the Japanese."
After making a plan, Yang Zhen saw that the time was almost up, so he divided his troops into two groups. One group was led by Guo Bingxun to attack the little devil's pioneering group. He took a hundred brothers and rushed to the ambush site. But Yang Zhen chose to ambush.
When it came to the location, the ambush position was unexpectedly chosen on the other side of the hill. Only one light machine gun was placed on the hill to control the firepower of the entire battlefield.
Of course, with the lessons learned at the Wudaoling Iron Mine, Yang Zhen did not forget to ask Li Mingrui to cut off the telephone line from the Japanese headquarters to the outside before he finally divided his forces. He was careless last time and was taken advantage of by that damn cook.
Yang Zhen was very cautious this time.
As slaves, the Puppet Manchukuo police in Liudaohezi naturally attach great importance to the safety of their masters. After the first gunshot was fired from the headquarters of the Japs Development Group, there was movement in Liudaohezi. Although the gunfire was not intensive, it was only sporadic.
, and it did not last long. However, the Puppet Manchukuo Forest Police in Liudaohezi and the Puppet Police in the Police Department still mobilized in full force and rushed towards the camp of the Development Group.
Looking at the more than a hundred Puppet Manchukuo policemen who were rushing towards the pioneering regiment station for fear that something would happen to his master and who had already entered his ambush circle, Yang Zhen ordered the leading soldiers to be let go and to concentrate on his marching brigade.
When Yang Zhen was deploying, he repeatedly requested that all actions be preceded by the sound of gunshots in his hands. He was absolutely not allowed to make any noise unless he fired. From the beginning of the breakout to the present, after several days of fighting together, these brothers, although
The tactical level has not improved much due to time. But its obedience is nothing to say. The mutual cooperation has also improved to some extent.
Yang Zhen made no move, and everyone silently held their guns and looked at the enemies who were marching less than fifty meters away from them. No one disobeyed the order.
Seeing that he was completely within the range of his own firepower, Yang Zhen did not hesitate at all and took the lead in firing the gun in his hand, knocking an officer off his horse.
As Yang Zhen's gun fired first, all the rifles and machine guns lurking in the crop fields on both sides of the road used the afterglow of dusk to pour a dense rain of bullets on the unsuspecting Puppet Manchukuo military police.
Especially those machine guns that formed a cross. Due to training, the power they exerted was far less than that in the hands of the Japanese. But such a close distance, with almost no need to aim, still caused great casualties to the pseudo-policemen.
In order to solve the problem that the brothers are not familiar with loading the Taisho 11-year-old light machine guns such as the Japanese, and are easily interrupted by replenishing ammunition for the machine guns, Yang Zhen specially organized all the machine guns into two machine gun groups to implement alternate firing.
, the problem was temporarily solved, allowing the machine gun to continue firing.
In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, Yang Zhen repeatedly ordered before the battle to use only firepower to solve the problem. It was absolutely not allowed to launch an unauthorized charge before all the enemies were defeated. This order given by Yang Zhen was very important to him at this time.
The brothers who were already treated like gods naturally had no objections.
After all, compared to lying on the ground and shooting with a bayonet, I'm afraid
