Digging two infantry cannons in Wuminggou made Li Yunlong realize that his way of making a fortune was definitely feasible.
After dragging the two infantry cannons out of the pit, Li Yunlong turned his eyes and then stared at other combat areas. . .
"Da Biao, just do this. During this period, you and your people should seize the time and collect all the specific information about where there have been battles within a hundred miles around here. Let's find them one by one."
"If the current momentum continues, it won't be long before our new second regiment can build an artillery battalion."
Lao Li's imagination is so beautiful.
Zhang Dabiao, a stupid young man, didn't care about anything else. He did whatever Li Yunlong said. The two hit it off and continued to move forward on this road to wealth.
…
…
When Kong Jie and his party evacuated from the small mountain village area, there were 22 more comrades in the team, including 12 special shooters from the fifth regiment, namely Huang Baiyang, Su Zhengqiang and his team, and ten quasi-special shooters. , which is what Captain Feng calls a good seedling.
It can be said that these ten warriors came here because of their fame.
Originally, Commander Feng told these ten soldiers to stay in the Independent Regiment for a while to help Commander Kong, but these soldiers were not happy.
Then Huang Baiyang stood up and said: "I went to the Independent Regiment. The brand-new Type 44 rifle is yours. The two hundred and forty rounds of ammunition are yours. They are finished. Commander Kong will supply them at any time. Specially equipped An observer will cooperate with your sniper operations; in addition, there will be more opportunities to fight Japanese enemies than you think."
"Why does our marksmanship usually improve so slowly? It's because there are too few opportunities for actual combat. This time, Commander Kong directly led us to hone our marksmanship in actual combat."
"It only takes three months. Not to mention being a special marksman, have you heard of snipers? That is a much more powerful branch of arms than sharpshooters. Maybe you can also grow into such a sniper."
Upon hearing this, the ten soldiers said nothing and followed Huang Baiyang and his party to join the independent team.
Then, Kong Jie transferred eighteen soldiers from the guard company, and together with Huang Baiyang and his party, formed a sniper platoon composed of forty people.
Then Kong Jie divided the soldiers into sniper teams.
"A shooter, an observer, together form a sniper tactical team."
"Do you know why I organized everyone to form the sniper platoon in front of me?"
"For the answer to this question, you can imagine yourself as a sharpshooter on the battlefield."
"I don't need to say more about the sharpshooter, right? This is a unit that scares the enemy. The enemy never knows where he is hiding, and his bullets can kill the enemy at any time."
"Think about it another way, a sharpshooter is so scary. What if it is a sharpshooter in a squad, or even a platoon?"
"So I formed the sniper platoon in front of me. Next, I will take you to continue actual combat, hone yourselves, and let you witness with your own eyes how terrifying a group of snipers can be."
"I'll leave it here for you in advance. We soldiers in the sniper platoon have enough guns and ammunition tubes. I have only one request. I'll give you a lot of bullets. I won't let you put them in bullet boxes to rust. Give them to me as much as possible. Destroy the Japanese and puppet troops."
"After I have divided the sniper teams for you, your snipers and observers must cooperate tacitly, and go out of your way to call out the Japanese and puppet soldiers."
"How about it, comrades, do you have the courage and confidence?"
"Yes, yes -"
Forty soldiers from the temporarily established sniper platoon responded at the same time.
Kong Jie smiled and continued: "You should have some understanding of the current combat environment. Our sniper platoon's current position has broken out of the Japanese encirclement."
"The little devils are very busy now! On the one hand, they must continue to encircle and suppress the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang area. On the other hand, the rear areas of the little devils have now been occupied by our independent regiment, as well as the new first regiment and the new second regiment. They are making a lot of noise. It doesn’t look like it anymore.”
"In this case, the Japs will only focus on the defense in the rear and the main force of our Eighth Route Army. Just our team of forty people will never take it to heart."
"And since we have a small number of people, we can easily disguise ourselves and lurk. This is our biggest advantage."
"But if the Japanese underestimate us, then they are stupid. Twenty tactical sniper teams, this is no joke."
At this point, Kong Jie's expression gradually became serious, "The sniper platoon has been temporarily established. The platoon leader will be veteran Huang Baiyang, and the deputy platoon leader will be Su Zhengqiang. As for the squad leader and deputy squad leader, you decide for yourself."
"Of course, in our sniper platoon, it depends on the sniper level and record. If you don't have any level, you won't be able to take on the important task of commander."
"So you comrades who serve as commanders have a heavy burden on your shoulders. You must not only ensure the coordinated operations and safety of the entire team, but also ensure your own efficiency in killing the enemy."
"Okay, let's talk about the main point next. What is the main mission of our sniper platoon?"
"It's very simple. Attack the enemy's stronghold, or in other words, frighten the enemy's stronghold."
"We have twenty sniper teams. What do I hope to achieve? With the cooperation of one or two sniper teams, we can defeat the Japanese and puppet soldiers in the stronghold so that they will have nightmares even when they sleep, and they will not dare to leave the stronghold even half a step. "
"Everyone must not underestimate a soldier who only holds a rifle. When this soldier is a sniper, he poses a much greater threat to the enemy than an infantry soldier."
"One person can take down an enemy squad, a platoon, or even a company; one person can take down a gun tower, or even a stronghold. Doesn't this sound a little impossible to everyone?"
"But what I want to tell you is that when you truly grow into excellent snipers, you may not be able to complete these tasks alone."
"Now that I have some free time on the road, I will tell you some stories. I will tell you some stories about how some excellent snipers used less to hit more, and even achieved miraculous stories of killing an enemy alone and capturing a large number of enemy soldiers."
…
This is Kong Jie's combat plan and combat ideas for forming a sniper platoon.
Use the sniper platoon with small targets but powerful combat effectiveness to deal with the enemy's various strongholds.
We do not seek to directly capture the stronghold, but we seek to deter the Japanese stronghold.
Then cooperate with the main combat troops to attack Japanese strongholds and conduct counter-mopping operations.
The reason is simple. Under the threat of a sniper team, the Japanese and puppet troops will not leave their strongholds easily.
After the Japanese and puppet troops did not dare to leave their strongholds easily, the connection between the Japanese strongholds would not be so close, so that when the Eighth Route Army troops attacked the strongholds, they would not be harassed by reinforcements from other strongholds.
In addition, during the large-scale sweep, the main force of the Japanese army relied on the many strongholds behind it to provide ammunition and supplies from time to time.
Once the stronghold is lost, the Japanese's logistics supply will definitely be affected.
If the main force of the Japanese raids returns to support the major strongholds, it will reduce the pressure on the Eighth Route Army's units to counter the raids to a certain extent.
This is Kong Jie's new idea of using the sniper platoon to deal with the Japanese strongholds.
…………………………………………
On the 15th.
The Japanese army launched a major sweep on the 12th, and it is now the fourth day.
In general, the Japanese army continued to shrink the encirclement and carried out a large-scale sweep of the Taihang area, forcing many Eighth Route Army troops around the Taihang area to retreat and relocate.
New second group.
Li Yunlong led the first battalion to easily break through the encirclement of the Japanese brigade. After breaking through the Japanese encirclement, he attacked strongholds and towns in the rear areas of the Japanese army, attacked the maintenance associations, eliminated the local Japanese and puppet defenders, etc.
Political commissar Zhao Gang led the remaining troops of the New Second Regiment to carry out counter-mopping operations with the help of mountainous defenses.
The Japanese brigade's raid on Yangcun, where the New Second Regiment was located, was abandoned and began to return to support the villages and towns in the rear to deal with the New Second Regiment's breakout.
During the movement, the New Second Regiment fought with the mopping up Japanese troops from time to time, but did not quarrel with them. Instead, they avoided the main force of the Japanese army and continued to make trouble in the rear of the Japanese army.
New group.
The Japanese army dispatched two full brigades with the intention of besieging the new regiment's station.
Ding Wei's troops were divided into two groups, leaving some troops to lead the Japanese army by the nose and fight mobile warfare in the mountains.
He also led another part of the main force to break out directly and ambush the Japanese reinforcements returning to the county town in various places.
In the words of the regiment leader Ding Wei: "There are many ways to eat meat. Lao Kong took the opportunity to change homes and went to the enemy's lair to eat meat. We robbed and supported the enemy reinforcements on the way and could still eat meat."
At first, the Japanese troops did not return much strength, even only one squadron.
These Japanese and puppet troops were naturally accepted by Ding Wei with a smile.
Independent regiment.
Following the transfer orders issued by the Japanese military command, the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade and the Ishii Regiment continued to deploy troops back to the county town, resulting in the remaining troops being insufficient to deal with the independent regiment, and the two sides fell into a temporary stalemate.
After all, the Japanese army did not conquer Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang.
Four tanks used by the Japanese to deal with the independent regiment were damaged.
Two of them fell into a pit dug by the commander of the fourth battalion, Lei Dasheng.
There were also two tanks that were directly blown up by large amounts of explosives buried underground.
This made the Japanese army realize that the Eighth Route Army, the Independent Regiment, possessed absolute anti-tank strength, which frightened the remaining tanks into retreating to the rear.
Niukou Village area,
The remaining troops of the Independent Regiment continued to act as if they were being restrained by the Japanese army, secretly coordinating Kong Jie, and fighting with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Battalions in all aspects.
…
It's about five o'clock in the afternoon.
Kong Jie led several sniper teams to a certain stronghold of the Japanese army.
After preliminary investigation, the monk returned to the reporting room and reported: "Captain, this stronghold is not big. We have just observed it with a telescope for a while, and we only saw five Japanese soldiers before and after, and there are more than 20 puppet troops remaining."
Kong Jie nodded, "The Japs have mobilized a lot of troops for this large-scale sweep, and some of the Japs in the strongholds have also been mobilized. The general situation in the Japanese and puppet strongholds now is that there are more puppet troops and fewer Japs."
"In this way, let each sniper team hide in different directions. I will kill the Japanese first, and the remaining puppet troops will be easy to deal with. If they are frightened, they may be able to defeat them without bloodshed."
"Yes!" The monk responded and turned around to make arrangements.
At about 5:40, the first gunfire rang out, breaking the calm around them.
A Japanese sergeant who was holding a cigarette in the stronghold was shot dead.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
The puppet platoon leader was striking a match and was about to light a cigarette for the Japanese sergeant when gunshots rang out and bullets flew over, directly piercing the Japanese sergeant's forehead. On the face of the puppet platoon leader.
The great fear made the puppet platoon leader tremble, and then the sharp and loud word "enemy attack" popped out of his voice.
Bang bang——
Another gunshot rang out, and under the gradually darkening sky, the Japanese and puppet soldiers in the stronghold didn't even know where the shooter was hiding.
Two Japanese soldiers fell down one after another.
Now, only the last two Japs were left in the huge stronghold.
After the puppet soldiers were frightened, they realized a problem. The enemy's sneak attack seemed to be aimed at the Japanese.
This made them feel frightened but also a little happy.
"Taijun, they must be the sharpshooters of the Eighth Route Army. We haven't even found where they are hiding. We dare not show our heads now. If we do, we will die!"
The puppet platoon leader hid in the gun tower and said to the remaining two Japanese.
"Baga, these hateful Tubal Roads!"
The remaining two Japs were yelling and screaming, but they were also afraid of death and did not dare to show their heads.
It was quiet outside the stronghold, and Kong Jie and his sniper team members were well hidden.
The sudden silence was as if nothing had happened before. If it weren't for the corpses of three Japanese soldiers lying quietly on the ground at this moment, the puppet soldiers would probably have thought the same.
But the Japanese and puppet troops all knew that at this moment, the outside of the stronghold was probably locked by the sharpshooters of the Eighth Route Army.
..."Captain, we have defeated three Japs. The remaining Japs and puppet troops have all hid in the houses and gun towers. What should we do next?" The monk quietly came over and asked.
It would be really difficult to deal with this Japanese and puppet army if they were just hiding in the fortifications.
Kong Jie thought for a while, looked up at the sky again, and said with a smile: "It's easy to handle. The sky is getting dark now. Let's do three things next."
"First, leave two sniper teams and continue to target the stronghold. As long as the Japanese and puppet troops show up, they will be killed directly."
"Second, use the two grenades we brought and fire two cannons into the stronghold to let the Japanese and puppet troops know that we also have artillery on hand."
"Third, let the rest of the comrades mount their war horses, just around the stronghold. Don't be too far away. Just circle around and shout."
The monk understood it, his eyes lit up, and he immediately responded: "Yes!"
soon.
Boom——
First, two grenade shells hit the turret in the Japanese stronghold. The huge sound frightened the Japanese and puppet troops in the turret.
"No, Taijun, these Eight Route Army soldiers have cannons. Could it be their main force that came here?"
"Third brother, go check on the situation."
The puppet soldier named Lao San nodded bravely, and as soon as he stuck his head out of the window of the turret, he was shot down with a bang.
The observers of the sniper team who stayed outside the stronghold immediately locked onto the puppet soldier named Lao San. Huang Baiyang fired his gun instantly and successfully killed the target.
Looking at the puppet soldiers lying limply on the ground, the puppet platoon leader's face turned pale with fright.
The sharpshooters of the Eighth Route Army are still there, keeping an eye on this place!
The Japanese and puppet troops in the artillery tower were looking at each other in shock and confusion. Suddenly, the sound of horses galloping was heard around the stronghold. Judging from the sound, there seemed to be quite a lot of them. The sound of horse hooves was very chaotic, mixed with shouts of killing.
At this time, all the puppet soldiers were completely panicked.
"Taijun, the main force of the Eighth Route Army is really coming!"
Then, outside the stronghold, a shout came through the loudspeaker:
"Listen up to the puppet troops in the stronghold. The Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army is here. If the Chinese don't kill the Chinese, if you want to survive, kidnap the Japs in the stronghold and come out and surrender immediately."
"You only have one minute to think about it. Once the minute is up, we will directly bombard the stronghold. No one will survive by then!"
The shouts rang out, and the Japanese and puppet troops in the turret were shrouded in fear.
Puppet soldiers, you look at me and I look at you. They want to go out to see the situation, but no one dares to show their heads. The sharpshooters of the Eighth Route Army are deadly.
One of the two Japs could understand Chinese. When he saw the faces of the puppet platoon leader and his entourage, he immediately tightened his grip on the gun in his hand and cursed: "Baga, Wu, yours, what do you think?" Can you rebel?"
The Japs were obviously a little excited. If the puppet troops didn't take action at this time, the Japs would probably take the lead.
Platoon leader Wu shouted loudly: "Hit!"
Before he finished speaking, he took out the tortoise box in his hand and opened fire first, directly killing the Japanese in front of him.
Before the other Japanese had time to recover, a group of puppet soldiers knocked off his gun, snatched his gun, and tied him up with a rope.
In babbling Japanese, the last remaining Japanese screamed in terror.
"What's his name? I don't usually tolerate the cowardice of you little devils."
Wu Pai Chang cursed and even kicked the surprised and angry Japanese.
Then Platoon Leader Wu looked at the surrounding puppet soldiers and said: "Brothers, this Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment is not easy to mess with. We are also trying to survive right now. This matter is rotten to my heart. Don't say anything to anyone." go out."
"Yes!" the puppet soldiers responded in unison.
Then Platoon Leader Wu quickly asked someone to take the white chess piece that seemed to have been prepared early in the morning. While extending it along the machine gun muzzle of the gun tower, he shouted: "Eighth Route Commander, don't shoot. We will kill the remaining Japanese." One, and another one was tied up, Chinese people don’t beat Chinese people!”
Outside the stronghold, Kong Jie was happy and shouted to the puppet soldiers in the stronghold: "You still have some backbone, okay, we don't know how to shoot, get out of the stronghold quickly! Remember to tie up the kid Bring the devil with you."
