The semi-town is not big. The first guard battalion and the third sniper squadron, plus the scouts and field hospital guard companies who followed Liu Yimin south, the defense line is still very tight. The most important thing is that the third sniper squadron is there, and the lake bandits who are madly attacking are sniping.
The eyes of the shooters are all prey, just like a hunter hunting rabbits. After setting up the trap and shooting with the gun, they will naturally be sure, one shot at a time.
At this time, the heavy firepower of the Eighth Route Army did not fire. Most of the soldiers of the 3rd Sniper Squadron used sniper rifles with silencers. The gunfire was mainly caused by the single shots fired by the soldiers of the 1st Guard Battalion, which made the lake bandits feel the sound of gunfire.
It was not intense. I increasingly thought that the Eighth Route Army in the town was a transport force with little firepower density. On the contrary, the Japanese artillery squadron covering the charge of the Lake Bandits did a good job. The shells exploded on the wall near the south gate of the town one after another. I saw it before my eyes.
The city wall was about to be blown down, and the lake bandits charged even more vigorously.
Zhang Linfeng saw that the lake bandit groups in front of several gates around the town were getting denser and denser, and he couldn't help but look towards Liu Yimin.
Liu Yimin deliberately let Zhang Linfeng take command and said in a deep voice: "When facing a battle, you must be calm and decisive."
Zhang Linfeng immediately ordered heavy firepower. In an instant, the fire support company of the first guard battalion hidden in the town opened fire. The first to speak were the two mortar platoons of the fire support company. The Japanese artillery squadron's opening fire just now had exposed their
At the position of the position, as soon as the Eighth Route Army's artillery opened fire, the Japanese artillery position became a target. The artillery shells streaked across the sky and hit the Japanese artillery position in the stunned eyes of the Japanese artillery. The panicked Japanese artillery squadron quickly moved its position and headed towards
Then retreated. Immediately afterwards, the heavy machine gun platoon of the fire support company and the light and heavy machine guns of each company opened fire at the same time, spitting tongues of flames and rolled towards the charging Lake Bandit charge team.
Now it's getting lively. The lake bandits are bandits after all. They do some robbery, kidnapping and extortion. They are no match for regular troops fighting like this. The attacking lake bandit team is just like when there is a storm in Hongze Lake.
Whoosh, whoosh, it rolled towards the embankment made of stones, and then rolled back.
The lake bandits left corpses on the ground and ran away, with bullets from the Eighth Route Army chasing after them, constantly taking the lives of the lake bandits.
Gao Zhujiu, who had been clamoring to rush into half the town just now, was completely stupid now. He could not imagine how a good sneak attack could be discovered by the Eighth Route Army, and the Eighth Route Army defending the city had such strong firepower that they attacked his brothers as soon as they came up.
There came a blow to the head.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, Gao Zhujiu wanted to order a retreat. However, he was reluctant to part with the carts of ammunition, silver coins, food and stunning beauties in the city. He gritted his teeth, raised the pistol in his hand, and said "bang", "bang"
"Twice, he knocked down the two minions who were running towards him, jumping to the ground and yelling: "You guys, they are all a bunch of worthless bastards. They will retreat as soon as the Eighth Route Army blocks them. Damn it, who?
If you dare to run again, I will kill him! Go back and fight for me. Whoever breaks into half a town first will be rewarded with 10 yuan!"
Gao Zhujiu was a puppet soldier and a lake bandit, and Wei Yousan, the old man, was a lake bandit and a puppet soldier. He was ruthless, killed without blinking an eye, and had a ruthless spirit in fighting. Gao Zhujiu shot two deserters, and Wei Yousan bang bang bang bang bang, one
Five deserters were shot dead in one breath. Gao Zhujiu said that whoever rushed into the city first would be rewarded 10 yuan. Wei Yousan said it was 20 yuan plus a girl. Liu Wulianzi was even more unambiguous. He only had eyes for Eighth Route Army beauties, so what else could he care about?
The look of horror in the eyes of the gangsters, completely forgetting the rules of pulling the wind tightly, and with a fierce look in their eyes, after shooting several bandit soldiers in succession, they actually pulled the short coat from their waist and held it in their hands.
Holding a gun and a machete in one hand, he led the gangsters to charge again. As a result, the lake bandits who had been fleeing in panic just now started charging again.
Zhang Linfeng was about to order the baggage regiments deployed on the periphery to launch a counterattack, outflank and pursue the Lake Bandits, when he saw the Lake Bandits turning around and rushing towards them. Not only Zhang Linfeng laughed, but also Liu Yimin, Li Lingfeng and Wang Tongsheng beside him laughed.
Liu Yimin said: "Zhang Linfeng is so lucky to encounter such a group of ***. Well, reduce the fire pressure, attract the Japanese too, order the baggage regiment to prepare for attack, order the New Third Brigade and the New Seventh Regiment to attack quickly, we must
Seize the Japanese and puppet ships, close the door and beat the dogs!"
As Zhang Linfeng's order was issued, the mortars of the fire support company of the 1st Guard Battalion first stopped shelling, and then the heavy machine guns also stopped singing, leaving only light machine guns and rifles firing. In this way, the charging troops
The pressure on the lake bandits and the Japanese troops following the lake bandits suddenly eased.
As soon as Gao Zhujiu saw it, he immediately shouted: "The Eighth Route Army has no artillery shells. Brothers, rush forward. In the middle of the town, there is a white ocean, and the beautiful women are right in front of you. Everyone can grab it!"
Chen Peihua on the side couldn't help snorting coldly, and cursed in her heart: "You idiot, the Eighth Route Army will not have any artillery shells? You can't even lie to people."
Having said that, Chen Peihua did not realize that the danger was right in front of him, because although the Eighth Route Army had strong firepower just now, it did not take advantage of the victory to leave the city to pursue. According to common sense, this shows that the Eighth Route Army guarding half of the town has limited strength and dare not leave the position. Besides,
, there are still six squadrons of the Imperial Army that have not committed the attack. Those are the real Japanese troops. One squadron can fight against a Japanese regiment!
Perhaps they were frightened by the previous attack. This time, no matter how the gang leaders yelled from behind, the gangsters became cautious and slowed down their attacks.
Liu Yimin looked bored and turned to Li Lingfeng and Wang Tongsheng and said: "Let the three of us compare our marksmanship!"
When Li Lingfeng heard this, he said: "Okay, standing in the shelter and watching the battle is the most boring thing."
Wang Tongsheng said little. He grabbed his sniper rifle with one hand and the August 1 automatic rifle with the other, walked out of the shelter and went to the position. When Liu Yimin and Li Lingfeng saw each other, they both laughed, grabbed their guns and went to the position.
Gao Zhujiu was not that stupid. When he saw the heavy firepower of the Eighth Route Army defenders, he withdrew his team to serve as a supervisory team and turned to find the Japanese commander Yano Lieutenant Colonel.
When he met Yano, Gao Zhujiu saluted decently, then reported that he invited the imperial army to attack, and rushed into half the town at once.
Yano's combat experience is much richer. He has seen that the sneak attack has completely failed, and now he can only attack by force. However, the Eighth Route Army defending the city is not very strong. It can be seen from the gunfire that it is a reinforced battalion.
.Yano is confident.
When Gao Zhujiu came to Yano, Yano had already ordered the transferred artillery squadron to launch an all-out bombardment to suppress the Eighth Route Army's mortar positions and cover the Lake Bandit attack. At the same time, he ordered two infantry squadrons to join the attack from the east and north directions, and another
Each squadron simultaneously committed the attack on the south gate, and he led two squadrons as reserves.
As soon as Gao Zhujiu finished speaking, Yano patted him on the shoulder and said: "Commander Gao, your soldiers don't understand tactics. The attack formation is too dense and they can easily become targets of the Eighth Route Army. You have to tell the Imperial Army well."
Study and see how the imperial army launches an attack."
Gao Zhujiu quickly lowered his head and shouted "Hai" several times, then leaned in front of Yano and reported in a low voice that there were many Eighth Route Army flower girls in the town, and they were extremely beautiful. They were all journalists with foreign student backgrounds.
,actor.
At this point, Yano became excited and directly called the two squadron leaders responsible for attacking the south gate and told them that they must make it clear to the soldiers that the gold tickets in the town are big and the flower girls are big. Attack the town.
Have a day off.
When the two Japanese squadron leaders heard that the golden ticket was big and the flower girl was big, and that they were going to have a day off, they both became energetic. They walked back to their ranks with their heads held high, raised their command swords high, and commanded their respective squadrons to cooperate with the Lake Bandit's attack.
Charged.
As soon as the little Japs launched their attack, Gao Zhujiu's eyes widened. He saw the little Japs hunched over and running quickly behind his brothers. After running for a while, they lay down, placed their guns directly on the corpses on the ground and fired. Then
That is to follow up with light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers, establish positions, and cover the infantry charge.
Gao Zhujiu thought to himself, this little Japan is so damn cunning. With their own brothers to block bullets for them, they can naturally shoot calmly, and their accuracy will naturally be much better.
When Liu Yimin went up to the position, he saw Tang Xingying climbing on a crenellation of the city wall, leading his guard squad to shoot at the charging troops of the Japanese and puppet troops. A bullet hit Tang Xingying, who was a little tall.
Sakura's military cap flew off, and her hair was immediately spread out.
Liu Yimin strode over, pulled Tang Xingying to the ground, and shouted in a low voice with a dark face: "Who asked you to come up? Why are you exposed so high? Are you trying to kill yourself?"
When he saw it was Liu Yimin, Tang Xingying, who had been speaking on behalf of the head of the Eighth Route Army on the stage before the fight started, raised her face and said with hatred: "I have had enough of life! It would be better to die on the battlefield. I just want to be a martyr! You don't care."
Do you get it?"
Liu Yimin pulled Tang Xingying to his side, pushed her head under his arm, quickly set up the gun, loaded the gun, and with a bang, beat the brains out of a Japanese officer who was directing the machine gun fire with a command knife.
, and then fired two more shots, killing the two machine gunners of the Jaap, and then turned around and scolded Tang Xingying: "What nonsense are you talking about? Think of your parents, think of your son. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will lock you up."
Confinement.”
Tang Xingying's bright eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and she looked at Liu Yimin dreamily.
Liu Yimin whispered: "Don't move, I'll go back and stay tonight."
Tang Xingying turned her head and said, "Who cares?" After saying that, she unconsciously moved her body into Liu Yimin's arms.
Liu Yimin stretched out his hand and gently scratched Tang Xingying's nose, and whispered again: "Be good," and then ignored her and turned his eyes to the battlefield again.
A shirtless guy came into Liu Yimin's field of vision. The guy was waving a pistol in one hand and holding a big knife in the other. He was shouting and shouting. Needless to say, he was the little leader of the Lake Bandit. A smile appeared at the corner of Liu Yimin's mouth, and his crosshair was on
Aiming at the guy's head.
Liu Wulianzi's mind was filled with the four female Eighth Route Army soldiers he peeped swimming by the lake. He wanted to rush into the town immediately and commit suicide, completely forgetting the danger. How could he have thought that the God of Death was there?
It was hanging above his head! At this time, he shouted while running: "Brothers, rush into the town. The Eighth Route Army transport team has yellow and orange gold bars, white flowers, and women with delicate skin and tender flesh.
Whoever grabs it belongs to whom. Follow me and rush!"
Before he finished speaking, a bullet flew towards him and went straight into Liu Wulianzi's mouth. A bloody arrow flew out from the back of Liu Wulianzi's head, and the impact caused him to fall on his back.
As soon as they saw that the ball was dead, a few cunning lake bandits shouted: "The boss's ball is dead! The boss's ball is dead!" While shouting, they started to run away backwards. It was nothing for them to run away, they were just passing by.
As Liu Wulianzi's gangsters began to flee backwards. This time, they were unlucky. The Japs from two squadrons had already launched an attack. How could they be allowed to disrupt the attacking team? There was a crisp sound of crooked machine guns, and Liu Wulianzi
The remnant lake bandits have all become the targets of the Japanese.
This scene fell into the eyes of Gao Zhujiu who was standing next to Yano watching the battle. He quickly said to Yano: "Taijun, those are our brothers and are extremely loyal to the imperial army. Just shoot in the air to scare them."
, but don’t really kill them again. If this continues, my brothers will be doomed. If they don’t die under the guns of the Eighth Route Army, they will die under the guns of the Imperial Army. There will be no way to survive!”
When the translator finished translating Gao Zhujiu's words, Yano became angry. He put the command knife directly on Gao Zhujiu's neck, with a ferocious look on his face, and roared loudly: "Escape from the battle, everyone will die! Yours, take the lead.
Charge. If you dare to disobey the order, you will die as well!"
Gao Zhujiu was so frightened that he peed his pants, trembled and ran away from Yano, and quickly went back to organize the attack.
At this time, Gao Zhujiu regretted his guts. He knew that this deal was completely ruined and he would not be able to afford it. Not to mention that the Eighth Route Army defending the city was so powerful that they could not attack. Even if they did, I was afraid that he would not be able to get in.
All my brothers are going to die too, and I have gained nothing for the little devil. Maybe I have to leave the guy who eats here, which will be a huge loss.
After the timid Gao Zhujiu returned to Chen Peihua, he pulled Chen Peihua to crawl on the ground and muttered in a low voice. Chen Peihua quickly made gestures towards the messenger next to him. Not long after, Gao Zhu was attacking.
Nine, Chen Peihua's Lake Bandits began to act cunning. Needless to say, Gao Zhu, who was in charge of supervising the team, was behind them. The remaining Lake Bandits of Chen Peihua's tribe began to fall to the ground and pretended to be dead dogs, and began to slow down.
Slowly crawling around, it was clear that he was about to slip away.
It was too late to escape at this time. Following Zhang Linfeng's order, the Eighth Route Army's Baggage Regiment deployed outside the semi-town was activated. The reinforced infantry artillery of two companies of the Fire Support Battalion of the First Baggage Regiment fired, and the shells smashed
At the Japanese artillery that had just re-established its position, it launched a test fire, followed by a salvo of five rounds, destroying the Japanese artillery position in one go.
The Japanese commander, Lieutenant Colonel Yano, was shocked until this moment, knowing that they had hit a rock. The Eighth Route Army in front of them was not just a transport team, they were a field force with artillery. Judging from the situation, the Eighth Route Army was using half of the town as bait.
, prepare to lure and annihilate your own troops.
Lieutenant Colonel Yano did not dare to neglect and ordered a report to the brigade headquarters to request permission to withdraw.
Before the reply from the Japanese Brigade Headquarters arrived, the firepower of the defenders in the semi-town suddenly became stronger again. Light and heavy machine guns, mortars, and grenades all appeared. The Eighth Route Army even fired flares to illuminate the battlefield and provide heavy firepower.
Indicate the direction of attack. Immediately afterwards, troops of the Eighth Route Army who had set up ambush suddenly appeared on both sides of the town and rushed towards the Japanese and puppet troops attacking the city. What was even more frightening was that the team that stayed in Chengziwa to guard the ships sent out an emergency signal for help.
, needless to say they were attacked by the Eighth Route Army.
At this time, Yano did not dare to hesitate any longer and immediately ordered the Japanese troops to retreat to Chengziwa. They must repel the sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army and recapture the ships.
As the Japanese army retreated, the situation on the battlefield reversed. The lake bandits of all stripes had already suffered heavy casualties. They originally expected the Japanese army to succeed in the attack and enter the city. Now they were completely desperate. They never thought about it again.
They went to burn and kill people in the town, which immediately turned into a rout.
At this time, Zhang Linfeng decisively ordered the charge horn to be sounded. The first guard battalion and the third sniper squadron came out from half the town. The first baggage regiment outflanked the Japanese and puppet troops from both sides and launched a pursuit of the participating Japanese and puppet troops.
Yano had two squadrons in reserve at hand. He thought that with these two squadrons, there should be no problem in recapturing the ship. Therefore, he ordered the retreat and took the two squadrons towards Narikowa.
What Yano didn't expect was that Chengziwa had already fallen into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. After the New Seventh Regiment, the main force of the New Third Brigade, had eliminated the Japanese squad and lake bandits guarding the ship, it quickly turned around, formed a fan-shaped attack formation, and began to outflank and defeat the fleeing Japanese and puppets.
Jun. Yano didn't even reach Narikowa, but met the New 7th Regiment halfway in Kautou.
One side was frightened and fled in panic, while the other side was well prepared and waiting. The outcome of this battle was already determined.
Liu Yimin did not participate in the pursuit. He returned to the headquarters and sent a report directly to the New Third Brigade and the New Seventh Brigade, notifying the Japanese army of deploying troops to attack half of the towns and ordering them to seize the Japanese troops in Xuyi County, Siyang County, and Huai'an County.
Taking advantage of the empty troops, they quickly attacked and captured these three counties.
Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua did not escape after all, but what surprised Liu Yimin was that the two bandit leaders were captured by Tang Xingying, Zhao Xiaoman, and Jingjing with their respective security squads.
It turned out that Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua mingled with the defeated troops and fled towards Chengziwa's lair. They knew that as long as they fled into the reed swamp, the Eighth Route Army would not be able to catch them even if they had the ability. Unfortunately, the Eighth Route Army did not give them a chance.
The 1st Guards Battalion of the Eighth Route Army, the 3rd Sniper Squadron and the 1st Baggage Regiment that were outflanked from the town all pursued them on horseback. The two legs of the lake bandits could not escape the four-legged horses anyway. Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua were in a hurry.
He jumped into a lotus pond and hid under the lotus leaves.
Tang Xingying was happy when she knew Liu Yimin was going back to see her. After following Liu Yimin down the city wall, she saw Zhao Xiaoman and Jingjing riding out of the city with the security squad to pursue them. She became competitive and immediately led the security squad to lead out the horses.
The prancing horse chased after him.
After this chase, I actually caught a big fish.
Gao Zhujiu is a pervert. Originally, the Eighth Route Army was eager to chase and destroy the fleeing Japanese and puppet troops. He could have escaped hiding in the lotus pond. Unexpectedly, he saw Zhao Xiaoman, Jingjing and Tang chasing after him.
After seeing Xingying, he was so fascinated that he couldn't help but want to take a closer look. In this way, the swaying lotus leaves revealed his figure.
Who is Tang Xingying? He is a hero of the Red Army who twice captured the officers leading the enemy's vanguard troops on the Long March. How could a bumpkin like Gao Zhujiu escape her discernment? As soon as he saw any noise in the lotus pond passing by, he immediately
He rushed back and ordered the guards to occupy the small lotus pond. First they shouted, and then they fired. In this fight, Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua were injured, and the blood floating on the water completely exposed their positions.
, the two lake bandit leaders who were addicted to murder had to raise their hands and surrender.
The old three Wei Yousan and Sun Naixiang, Wang Naihan, Zhang Wenbo, Liu Siluanzi, Liu Qingyang and others were not lucky enough to be captured. These guys are all desperadoes. If they are defeated, they will be like gamblers who are jealous of gambling.
After admitting defeat, the Eighth Route Army dared to resist stubbornly when they caught up, trying to show off their marksmanship. Don't you know that although their marksmanship is good, in the eyes of the soldiers of the 3rd Sniper Squadron led by Li Lingfeng and Wang Tongsheng, they are just little babies who don't count the ball?
He was completely vulnerable, so naturally he could not die anymore.
Li Lingfeng personally interrogated Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua. Only after this interrogation did he know the reason for this semi-town defense battle. Li Lingfeng did not dare to hide it and made a detailed report to Liu Yimin. Now, Tang Xingying and Zhao Xiao
Man, Jingjing, and Huang Wei were unlucky. They were all humiliated by Liu Yimin's training. Even their achievements in capturing Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua were offset.
Liu Yimin immediately issued an order to establish the Hongze Lake Management Bureau of the Eighth Route Army, appointing Huang Wenhu, the instructor of the First Guard Battalion, as the director. Based on the First Guard Battalion and Three Companies, the First Battalion and Three Companies of the Baggage Regiment, and the Second Battalion and Three Companies, the young people in the Hongze Lake area were recruited.
The fishermen formed the Hongze Lake Water Guard Group, which is responsible for completely eradicating the remaining bandits on the lake and protecting Hongze Lake.
I heard that the Eighth Route Army had won a great victory, annihilating the Japanese and puppet troops who had sneaked into half the town, and captured Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua alive. Half the town and the surrounding villages were boiling, and all the people came out holding torches to help the Eighth Route Army clean up the battlefield.
Lift the wounded.
By the time Liu Yimin finished handling his official duties, there was already a buzz of people outside the courtyard. Huang Wenhu, the newly appointed director of the Hongze Lake Management Bureau, reported that the fellow villagers had heard that Gao Zhujiu and Chen Peihua had been captured, and they were all waiting outside the courtyard to ask the Eighth Route Army
The chief approved the shooting of these two damned men. If the Eighth Route Army did not want to waste bullets, it would ask the chief to approve the handing over of these two damned men to the fellow villagers, who would stab them to death with harpoons.
Liu Yimin had encountered this kind of situation when he eliminated the Han Sanjie gang in Jinjie Town, north of Yulin. He knew that the bandits were extremely evil and would probably be cut into pieces if left to the fellow villagers. In his heart, Liu Yimin felt that no matter how big the bandits were, they would die.
However, the Eighth Route Army is the people's army and wants to create a red world. Everything must be done in accordance with the laws of the anti-Japanese democratic government. Therefore, he told Huang Wenhu to hold a public trial in the name of the Hongze Lake Management Bureau to let
The fellow villagers complained, and then they were tried and executed in public in accordance with the laws of the National Government and the Shaanxi Anti-Japanese Democratic Zone Government's decrees on punishing traitors and bandits. The purpose was to suppress the two giant bandits to deter the remaining bandits in Hongze Lake District and arouse the masses to resist Japan.
.
After hearing this, Huang Wenhu went to do the work of the fellow villagers.
