The next day, at around eight o'clock in the morning, outside the north gate of Wuning County, a group of "weirdos" dressed as local old men appeared in front of the sentry post of the Wuning Guerrilla Brigade, but they were obviously different from the locals. The name "weirdos" came from From the mouth of a guerrilla named Xiang Mengcai, and the basis for what he called these people was that these people were obviously a head shorter than the locals, and their walking posture was very weird. In addition, they seemed to have no expression on their faces, just like who It seemed like he owed them eight hundred yuan. After a guerrilla brigade under his command was ambushed by the Japanese army, Chi Guanxing felt that the combat power and ferocity of this Japanese army exceeded those he had experienced before, so he ordered The guerrilla forces under their command tightened their defense lines and ordered the people within their jurisdiction to evacuate to the nearest county. They decided to use strong walls to clear the country to fight against the Japanese army's clearing operation. Chi Guanxing took it for granted that the Japanese army's Taiwan Infantry First Regiment would The raid was defined as a clearing of the guerrilla base areas. It was not that he lacked the overall concept, but that the tentacles of the student army had not yet extended so far. In the vast mountainous area at the junction of the three provinces of Hubei, Jiangxi and Hunan, not only the student army existed at this time The guerrilla armed forces of the GCD and the Central Army, as well as the Guangxi clique's guerrilla armed forces, are active among them. The mountainous areas are always areas that the Japanese army cannot completely control. The brave and unyielding Chinese people rely on the complex terrain of the mountainous areas to persist in the struggle. The Japanese army had not wiped them out before, but with little success. Not to mention Chi Guanxing's northern Gansu guerrilla column. Their weapons and equipment were basically the same as those of the regular army of the cadet army, but they lacked heavy weapons. Therefore, they were unable to fight positional warfare with the Japanese army. As for the GCD, the Central Army and the Guangxi guerrillas, they also had their own unique tactics in dealing with the Japanese army. In general, the time, place and people were all on the same side. On their side, the Japanese army had actually lost the possibility of victory.
The leading officer of the Northern Ganxi Guerrilla Column on duty outside the North Gate at this time was named Xiao Daliang, the squadron leader. After hearing Xiang Mengcai's comments about "weirdos", he was already suspicious of this group of people, so he went up to ask them personally He seemed to be taking the lead: "Where is your Luyin?" Luyin, this is actually the product of internal fighting between several major guerrilla armed forces. In guerrilla warfare in mountainous areas, the various guerrilla units under the Northern Jiangxi Guerrilla Column are better. They can Supplies were obtained from Ganzhou, but for the GCD, the Central Army and the Guangxi guerrilla armed forces, everything they needed could only be raised locally. Therefore, even though the top leaders of all parties ordered their guerrilla commanders to exercise restraint, However, in the face of the pressure of survival, some disharmonious things still happened. In order to prevent guerrillas from other forces from going to their own jurisdiction to recruit men or collect supplies, road guides were invented.
The leader of this group of people was a man in his thirties. He was about 1.7 meters tall and was considered the most normal-looking among the group. He nodded and bowed and said to Xiao Daliang: "Sir, the little Japs are coming. In order to avoid the little devil, we did not set up a road guide. Sir, the little devil is behind us, please save us."
When he didn't speak, Xiao Daliang thought he was quite pleasing to the eye. After what he said, Xiao Daliang tasted something different. He put his hand on the handle of the gun and said, "I think I've seen you before. You are from Qiancun, and the little devil has never been to Qiancun."
The man was startled for a moment, and then he said with a flattering face: "Yes, yes, I am from Qiancun."
The man would not have thought that Xiao Daliang's words were just to flatter him, and that Qiancun was nothing at all. Before he finished speaking, Xiao Daliang had already taken out a gun in his hand, pulled the trigger with his thumb, and pointed the gun at his chest. He shouted and asked: "Who are you? Tell me honestly. Huh, there is no Qiancun within dozens of miles around, but which Qiancun are you from?" Xiao Daliang shouted uncertainly, and his brother held the The gunmen gathered around. There were twelve of them. Xiao Daliang had a shell gun. Except for two of the other eleven, they used 38-type caps. The others were all Wei Qing-style assault rifles.
The man's expression changed when Xiao Daliang pointed a gun at him. After hearing what he said, a sharp look suddenly flashed in his eyes. He suddenly pulled open his autumn shirt, revealing the explosives tied to his chest, and glared at Xiao Daliang fiercely. He said: "If you don't want to die, put down the gun, otherwise we will die together." At the same time, the "old cousins" behind him took out one or two pistols from their bodies like magic. There is also a bastard box for the shell gun, and there is actually a Yun-style pistol from Xuebingjun.
The man's true colors were revealed. Xiao Daliang's face changed slightly, but his hand movements did not cause any hesitation. When he pulled the trigger, he used both feet to make him fall backwards. When the gunshot sounded, he shouted: "Brothers, they are devils, fight them."
"Boom." The explosive on the man's chest was detonated by him, and the man turned into a huge fireball. At the same time, gunshots rang out intensively. Xiao Daliang was too close to the man. Although he reacted quickly, he failed. Still surrounded by the explosion, the intensive gunfire mixed with the explosion instantly caused heavy casualties on both sides of the confrontation. Nine of the twelve people in Xiao Daliang's group fell instantly, seven of whom lost consciousness immediately, and the others The three of them shouted loudly and hugged the fire with all their strength: "The devil is coming, the devil is coming."
The sound of explosions and gunshots spread far away, and Wuning County was immediately in chaos. People on the streets screamed and rushed toward their homes, while a large group of guerrillas rushed out and quickly climbed up to the city wall. About two kilometers away from the sentry post, a group of more than 300 Japs were lurking in the mountains and forests. They rushed out with the sound of explosions. A captain looked towards the head of Wuning County with a telescope in his hand, and saw the guerrillas with guns and live ammunition. His expression changed and he cursed fiercely: "Ba Ge, this bastard Noda was actually discovered by the Chinese."
In the captain's opinion, letting his soldiers pretend to be Jiangxi old men and sneak into Wuning County to open the city gate was a good idea that only a military genius like Zhuge Liang could come up with. He finally managed to pull off such a proud work, so naturally he was very interested in it. He had high hopes, but Chi Guanxing's guerrillas refused to cooperate, causing him to waste a lot of brain cells. This naturally made him angry.
"Sir, what should we do next?" A second lieutenant walked up to him and asked,
The captain put down his telescope, narrowed his eyes, and gritted his teeth and said, "What else can we do? Attack the Chinese guerrillas. One of our squadrons is enough to wipe out a whole group of them. How many guerrillas can there be in Wuning County?"
Under the order of the captain, a squadron of Japs launched an attack on Wuning County. In addition to having no tanks and field artillery, the Japs of this squadron were equipped with various other light and heavy weapons. It was supposed to be enough to attack a county town. However, learning The Bingjun guerrillas have always been famous for their sophisticated weapons. When the battle started, the Japanese army's ten mortars could only fire two shells each. More than forty grenades flew out of Wuning County. At this time, the captain was dumbfounded. ,
