The Japanese convoy finally entered the pocket formation of the Seventh Company...
"Order the artillery squad to shoot the hell out of you!"
Chu Xiong gave the order to attack.
This command is so refreshing!
"Squad leader Zhao, company commander ordered, blast him!"
Squad leader Zhao was immediately happy when he heard this. Finally it was the artillery's turn.
"Gun squad, fire six rounds rapidly, let go!"
The artillery squad's shooting elements have been adjusted, and they can just shoot at the Japanese convoy.
"Boom boom boom!"
Four 81mm artillery shells roared towards the Japanese convoy. In the first round, three artillery shells hit two vehicles, especially the leading vehicle, which directly hit two artillery shells.
One hit the front of the car, and the other hit the compartment.
The 81mm mortar shell was not comparable to a hand grenade. It directly penetrated the roof of the cab and exploded in the cab.
Captain Gao Ping and the driver were directly blown to pieces. The more than 20 Japanese soldiers standing in the carriage suffered heavy casualties. The firepower was too intensive!
After the artillery squad simply adjusted the shooting angle, another round of shells went straight towards the Japanese.
The Japanese who had been hit by the explosion reacted, and the driver suffocated the brakes.
Almost at the same time, a black grenade flew from the sky and exploded among the Japs, causing waves of blood rain.
The artillery squad's six rapid fire rounds were fired within half a minute. The lethality of 24 shells was not something that a few trucks could withstand...
"Damn it, the artillerymen are these losers. All my cars were destroyed by them!"
Chu Xiong cursed in distress, he had known that three rounds would be enough.
The Japanese who were not killed or injured jumped out of the truck one after another, and just as they were about to fight back, another grenade from Black Crow Crow came over;
"Boom boom boom..."
The massive fragments produced by the explosion of more than a hundred grenades enveloped the surviving Japanese soldiers, and a large number of Japanese soldiers fell down.
"Baga, you don't have the spirit of Bushido!"
"Mom, I don't want to die..."
"Chunzi..."
This group of devils shouted anything when facing death, but they didn't hear "Long Live His Majesty the Emperor."
"Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta"
Liu Dazhuang's machine gun finally had a chance to take action. If he didn't fire, there would be few Japanese left standing.
"Blow the charge! Leave no one behind!"
Chu Xiong gave the order to charge.
More than a hundred soldiers of the Seventh Company rushed to the road and began to clear and wipe out the enemy...
The battle lost its suspense in an instant, and the remnants of the enemy who resisted were quickly annihilated.
The Gaoping Squadron and all 188 pilots were wiped out, and no prisoners were captured. In the early days, the Japanese were very stubborn and rarely surrendered on their own initiative.
Of course, Chu Xiong didn’t intend to capture anyone alive!
In this battle, 11 more light machine guns were seized, 4 transport vehicles, two motorcycles were destroyed, 2 transport vehicles were seized, 12 grenades, more than 110 long and short guns, more than 1,000 grenades, and more than 20,000 rounds of bullets .
Helmets, bayonets, military uniforms, field rations and other supplies were peeled off and loaded into a truck.
The biggest gain was the seizure of a radio station. Chu Xiong's troops finally had a radio station!
Chuxiong used the two captured trucks to carry the captured equipment and supplies and headed straight to Liuzhen. It was time to pick the biggest peach in Liuzhen.
After the main force of the Seventh Company arrived at Liuzhen, they quickly launched an encirclement and annihilation of the remaining Japanese. Seeing that the situation was not good, the puppet military camp revolted on the battlefield under the leadership of battalion commander Ma Dayuan.
The targets they chose were the second-rate men in the plainclothes team. The plainclothes team was fine with bullying the common people, but they were no match for the veterans and greasers like the puppet army.
They were quickly annihilated by the puppet troops. This group of puppet troops also participated in the Battle of Taiyuan, but the troops were dispersed by the Japanese and became a rout;
Later, he was recruited by the Japanese and was responsible for assisting in the defense of Liu Town, but he was not stained with the blood of the people.
Liuzhen is restored!
Chu Xiong has no plans to leave Liuzhen for the time being. He wants to establish a solid anti-Japanese base with Liuzhen as the center.
The more than 200 puppet troops who surrendered were all replenished into the seventh company after shaving off a small number of crooked melons and split dates. A platoon also returned to Liuzhen from the old camp.
In the Battle of Liuzhen, another Japanese squad was annihilated, and a total of 7 Japanese field squads and some technical soldiers, including drivers, were annihilated, a total of 386 people.
The weapons and equipment of two and a half squadrons were seized, and two radio stations, more than a dozen war horses, more than 10,000 yuan in silver dollars, and several kilograms of food and supplies were seized from the Liuzhen squadron headquarters.
The Seventh Company suffered a total of 34 casualties, including 15 killed and 19 wounded.
Chu Xiong wanted to quickly strengthen himself before the Japanese reacted.
The first thing to do is to divide the three main platoons into two and divide them into six basic platoons of more than 30 people. Each class is also divided into two.
In this way, the Seventh Company had six platoons. All the more than 200 surrendered puppet troops were dispersed and reorganized into the six platoons. Ma Dayuan served as the leader of the sixth platoon. The leader of the fourth platoon was promoted by the fifth squad leader Yan Haoyu. The fifth platoon leader was recruited by the first squad leader. Tan Tao, an officer of the Central Army, serves as the officer.
This Tan Tao had previously served as the company commander of the Central Army. He was a student of the seventh phase of Huangpu Wuhan Branch and a native of Hunan;
I had some leftist thoughts when I was in school, and I have withstood the test in these battles.
In addition, the artillery squad has been upgraded to an artillery platoon. Although there are only 4 guns now, Chu Xiong believes that more cannons will be captured in the future. He will set up the frame first. The whole platoon also has 80 people. The platoon leader is Zhao Hui, the former artillery squad leader. , is also from the old Red Army.
The strength of the Tigers' special operations team remains unchanged at 16 people. The two slightly injured personnel are not a big problem and will recover in less than a week.
The expanded Seventh Company has six 80-man infantry platoons, one artillery platoon and the directly affiliated Tiger Special Forces. Together with the 10-man company headquarters, the total personnel has expanded to 586.
Chu Xiong did not want to attract the attention of the Japanese too early, so he tried his best to suppress the level of the troops;
With one company, the Japanese will pay much less attention to it.
The leadership team of the Seventh Company includes
Company Commander: Chu Xiong
Instructor: Yang Wei (also instructor of the garrison company)
Commander of the garrison company: He Zhenhua (platoon level)
Platoon leader: Li Qing
Second platoon leader: Zhang Yu
Third platoon leader Lin Xiaofeng
Fourth platoon leader: Yan Haoyu
Fifth platoon leader: Tan Tao
Sixth platoon leader: Ma Dayuan
Artillery Platoon: Zhao Hui
Vice-captain of Tiger Squad: Chen Xiaohu (Stone)
Since a large number of machine guns and grenade launchers were captured this time, each of the 36 infantry squads is equipped with a light machine gun (primary and secondary shooters), a grenade launcher (primary and secondary shooters), 9 riflemen, and a rifle Each hand is responsible for carrying 60 rounds of ammunition for the machine gun team, and the whole class carries 24 grenades for the grenade cannon.
Recruit 500 new soldiers in Liuzhen and surrounding villages, and send them all to the old camp of Shenxianling for three months of training;
After three months, 120 people will be added to the garrison company, and the rest will be added to the main force.
The main force conducts half-month training in a way where the old lead the new, mainly team training;
Each platoon leader must carry out a grievance campaign among the revolting soldiers and provide them with political education and military technical and tactical training.
The army's technical and tactical training already has a fixed template. Just follow it and there will be no mistakes;
However, we have encountered some troubles in recruiting new recruits...
