How could Yoshio Shinozuka understand?
The Eighth Route Army's military and civilian unity performed "China Speed" for the little devils.
Yes, the main force of a detachment that originally took advantage of the Japanese army's destruction of a detachment's autumn harvest to go back to the agricultural area behind Guizi County to seize grain actually only consisted of three regiments, with nearly 6,000 troops.
Compared with the vast agricultural areas where the Japanese concentrated planting in the suburbs of major counties, this number of people is indeed not enough.
But there were enough people who couldn't stand it and came to help.
According to the relevant departments of the first team, based on the memories of relevant soldiers of the 1st, 23rd and 3rd regiments:
The main force of the 123rd Independent Regiment was divided into multiple groups, and the operation to seize Japanese crops was fully supported by the people from the county.
There may be hundreds of people, and even tens of thousands of people!
The villagers took farm tools from their homes. When they heard that the Eighth Route Army was harvesting crops from the Japanese invaders and needed help, they hurried over and immediately jumped into the intense harvesting operation.
As a result, due to the lack of troops, according to Kong Jie's plan, each company must be responsible for at least 100 acres of crops.
The soldiers threw away their arms and harvested as fast as possible. In addition, they were farmers and were skilled in harvesting. They could harvest more than one hundred square meters of wheat, millet or rice every hour.
Calculated this way, if a company has 100 soldiers, it will harvest more than one acre of land every hour.
And the soldiers of each company are responsible for more than one hundred acres of crops. How much time will it take?
But the arrival of the villagers quickly reversed this situation.
Take a certain combat company of the Independent Regiment as an example.
More than 2,000 people came to help at one time.
The harvesting people and the soldiers almost surrounded the entire farmland of more than an acre, and then began to harvest rapidly from all directions.
It might take a company of soldiers a day to harvest the farmland.
With the help of a large number of people, it took less than three hours to harvest everything.
Other companies are basically in the same situation.
According to subsequent statistics from relevant departments, the main force of the 123rd Regiment detoured to the rear of the Japanese-occupied areas to seize Japanese crops. There were probably hundreds of thousands or even more people who came to help.
Therefore, the harvesting time originally planned by the headquarters was greatly advanced.
So that the little devil was caught off guard.
After the crops on large tracts of farmland were plundered.
Su Lai is a team of soldiers who work hard every time, and they also adhere to the principle of "you can't fool anyone but our own people".
As agreed in advance, we plan to distribute 50 kilograms of grain to each person who comes to help.
As a result, almost all the villagers refused.
When we came to help, everyone ran faster than anyone else.
When the soldiers agreed to distribute food, everyone evacuated faster than anyone else!
"What kind of food do you need? It's such a cold weather. Let's go out and do some exercise. We'll keep our bodies warm. It's not a loss!"
"That's right, Comrade Eighth Route Army, if you insist on giving, then just think of it as the anti-Japanese food we donate to you!"
"Yes, although we live in the occupied territory, we are by no means obedient citizens! Comrade Eighth Route Army, our hearts have always been for our fellow soldiers!"
Even those ordinary people who ran to help with excitement and shouted that they would definitely get the 50 kilograms of grain as a reward from the Eighth Route Army shook their heads when faced with the grain that the soldiers actually brought out:
"What kind of food do you want? Comrade Eighth Route Army, if we take the food, won't we be harming ourselves? If the little devil comes back to look for trouble, we won't be able to explain it with how many mouths he opens!"
Just like that, almost none of the people who came to help asked for the 50 kilograms of grain.
Everyone came to help like a tide, and then retreated like a tide.
If you really wave your sleeves, you won't take away half a grain of food.
The soldiers, who did not care to lament the simplicity of the people's hearts, quickly brought in the harvested millet, wheat, rice, sorghum and other crops.
Quickly follow the established evacuation route and move towards the base area.
At this time, there were still some remaining Japanese and puppet troops in major counties, but due to the strong combat effectiveness of a team of soldiers, they did not dare to approach them at all.
As for the direction of the evacuated city gate, it had already been occupied by the soldiers during the attack, and troops were left to guard it to ensure the smooth flow of transportation channels.
In this way, under the cover of the main force, the various seizure troops quickly withdrew from the Japanese counties and towns.
After the performance of "China Speed" was completed, what came next was the tacit understanding and cooperation between the military and civilians of the Eighth Route Army.
Pull a large number of carts to transport the harvested crops.
During the evacuation process, the speed of the soldiers will naturally be greatly slowed down, and they will easily be caught up by the Japanese pursuers.
In addition, the target is too large, which can easily lead to exposure.
If we were to transport all the harvested crops back to the base through transportation teams, there would be too many variables along the way.
Therefore, Kong Jie had already arranged the battle plan for the evacuation!
"It's similar to the way we looted the food transported by the Japanese military train last time.
After our transportation team left the Japanese counties and towns and quickly entered the guerrilla zone, the crops we transported along the way were dispersed and hidden in the tunnels of various villages along the way, waiting for subsequent transshipment. "
The next actions will be carried out step by step.
The crops transported in large quantities on pallets were like being gnawed by locusts along the way. After passing through a village, they were eaten up to 30,000 to 50,000 jins.
Villagers came one after another to help unload trucks, transport and store grain.
In this way, they quickly passed through the guerrilla zone and were about to approach a team's outer base area. The transport team that originally transported a large amount of crops basically had only a few empty trucks left.
At this time, the Japanese mopping up troops that had withdrawn from the first team's base area blocked the main advance route of the 1, 2, and 3 regiments.
The orders received from the headquarters of the Japanese mopping up troops were: to intercept the main force of the Eighth Route Army evacuating to the first team's base area.
Recapture the stolen crops of the Japanese Empire.
As a result, after the encounter between the two sides, the soldiers who were no longer burdened by crops in the marching team quickly deployed and started a confrontation with the Japanese army.
The original transportation team suddenly transformed into the first independent anti-Japanese detachment of the Eighth Route Army in northwestern Shanxi, a truly elite field army.
The sudden burst of fighting power stunned the oncoming little devil.
In particular, several company commanders gave full play to the spirit of Lao Liu.
After a few people made a summary, the American Browning heavy machine gun carried by the team this time, that is, the M1919A4 heavy machine gun, was built in advance for heavy machine gun fortifications and erected on the high slopes on both sides of the mountain road that the Japanese army must pass.
Taking advantage of the condescending terrain and unobstructed open field of vision, the crossfire from both sides directly formed the densest firepower network, tilting towards the oncoming Japanese army.
Bullets fell like dense raindrops.
When the battle broke out, six Browning heavy machine guns burst out with firepower.
Not to mention the oncoming Japs, even the soldiers of several companies who were the instigators were shocked by it.
Seeing a series of blood mist erupt in the ambush circle, the little devil was shattered into pieces before even the sound of wailing could be heard.
Feel the amazing rate of fire and terrifying power of this Browning heavy machine gun.
One company commander couldn't help but uttered a curse word: "Damn it, this power is like an animal!"
That's not all.
Lao Liu's spirit can always prompt the soldiers to use all their firepower and equipment to conceal themselves in advance, and then use a sudden explosion to show their most powerful power.
In addition to the Browning heavy machine gun, there is also the 60 mortar position that everyone has built hiddenly.
The scattered sniper teams also continued to take away the lives of some officers, gunners and machine gunners in the Japanese army with sniping attacks from time to time.
The oncoming Japanese troops were completely enveloped by this ocean-like ambush.
As a Japanese cavalry tank retreated in advance of the Japanese mopping up troops, it roared in.
Then they were blasted away by individual anti-tank rocket launchers by the soldiers of the anti-tank team who were accompanying the main force of the 1, 2, and 3 regiments to harvest Japanese crops.
The Japanese's thin-skinned tank turned into a pile of scrap metal amid the loud noise.
The Japanese infantry who followed behind were completely stunned!
They seemed to have just seen what a real elite field force of the Eighth Route Army was!
They now have to consider where to intercept these crops that have been harvested by the Eighth Route Army.
It's a matter of how to save one's life.
…
The Japanese troops stationed in the headquarters of the First Shanxi Army in Taiyuan City.
Japs Commander Yoshio Shinozuka just received the news:
"While the Eighth Route Army troops poured into the large agricultural areas occupied by our army to harvest food, a large number of Chinese people suddenly emerged to participate in the harvesting operation.
This greatly accelerated the Eighth Route Army's action speed and improved the Eighth Route Army's harvesting efficiency! "
"General, this is why the Eighth Route Army, which is not large in number, even in just a few hours, harvested all the crops planned for planting in various counties of our army."
Hear the words.
Anger brewed in his heart, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged out from his clenched fists. Yoshio Shinozuka suppressed his anger and said, "Damn the Eighth Route Army First Division, and these damned thugs!"
But he wanted to continue plundering resources and stationed himself in the counties and towns in the occupied areas for a long time.
A mass base is needed, and a large number of Chinese people in the occupied areas are indispensable to help grow food and help maintain the operation of the economy and the vitality of the entire county.
Do you think the cruel little devils will only implement the three-pronged policy of killing everyone, burning everyone, and robbing everyone?
But in fact, the ambitious little devil will not only carry out the three-guang policy, but also implement the so-called "three no's policy", which means no killing, no robbing, and no stealing.
Such a three-no policy is sometimes even more terrifying than the three-guang policy.
They restrained the Japanese troops from violating law and discipline, thereby winning over people's hearts and paralyzing the Chinese people.
The Japanese chief of staff on the side was afraid that his commander would get angry and do something to arouse public resentment, so he immediately reminded:
"General, this is not the first time that these Chinese people have behaved like this, but now is not the time to deal with the people. What we need to do with the people is still to maintain law and order and strengthen management."
"Of course I understand this."
Shinozuka Yoshio nodded, a cold look flashed in his eyes.
"There is an old Chinese saying that boils frogs in warm water. These unscrupulous people who have always rejected our Empire of Japan will one day be wiped out or assimilated by our Empire of Japan!"
"Now we should focus on this Eighth Route Army unit that looted our crops."
"In this way, immediately notify all parties of the mopping up troops, block all evacuation routes from the county to the Eighth Route Army's first team base, and encircle them in reverse."
"We must intercept the Eighth Route Army, which is evacuating our army's crops from counties and towns, and regain the military supplies."
"Hi!" Kitagawa responded.
But it didn't last long, probably only more than an hour later.
The Japanese headquarters received another message from the headquarters of the various regiments that were raiding the troops:
"...We did encounter the Eighth Route Army troops retreating from the county seat!"
This made Shinozuka Yoshio's gloomy face, which was almost dripping with tears, slightly improve.
then……
"But this Eighth Route Army is extremely well-equipped, even equipped with a large amount of American equipment, and its combat effectiveness is very strong!
In just a brief confrontation, our fifth regiment suffered more than 300 casualties.
In addition, the so-called large amount of crops was not detected from the Eighth Route Army team that appeared! "
There is more than one such news.
Then came news from other regiments and brigades of the Japanese army. In their reports, they expressed in a tone full of horror: The Eighth Route Army they encountered must be a truly elite team.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the Eighth Route Army our army encountered, both in terms of sophisticated equipment and powerful combat effectiveness, far exceeds our imagination. We can even conclude that this is a truly elite team!"
"They are far more powerful than the so-called main force of the Eighth Route Army that our army encountered when advancing near the first team's base..."
As the news came one after another, and after contacting each other, the truth seemed to be coming out.
Beichuan, the Japanese chief of staff, couldn't help swallowing in the silence and said tentatively:
"General... Could it be that from beginning to end, the so-called main force of the Eighth Route Army that our army encountered while advancing towards the base area of a detachment was not the main force of this detachment.
And this Eighth Route Army, which detoured to the rear of our army's occupied area and took the opportunity to seize our army's crops, is the real trump card in Kong Jie's hand? "
So far.
Yoshio Shinozuka's plan to use the raiding forces to return reinforcements, counter the siege, and recapture the crops snatched by the Eighth Route Army went bankrupt.
Faced with Kitagawa's speculation, Yoshio Shinozuka was silent for a long time, and finally he just uttered four words - "Kong Jie Kong Jie!"
He called Kong Jie's name twice with four words in a row.
The hatred mixed in it made even the Japanese Chief of Staff Beichuan shudder.
A sneeze——
In the headquarters of the first team, Kong Jie, who seemed to be noticed by others, couldn't help but sneeze. Then he received a series of good news from the front, and couldn't help but clapped his hands and said with a smile:
"Okay, okay, great fight!"
"We stole the little devil's winter food this time, so we don't have to worry about it this year. Once the war situation stabilizes, let all our soldiers have a good harvest!"
