The North Effect Station of Yuci City was a temporary material transfer station for the Japanese. The Zhengtai Railway passed through it, and a large amount of combat materials prepared by the First Army for the autumn sweeps were stored here.
In order to ensure the safety of Zhengtai Road, the Japanese built a large number of artillery towers and bunkers along the railway. Armored vehicles equipped with cannons and heavy machine guns also patrolled back and forth on the railway regularly. Any Chinese who approached the railway would be shot.
A reinforced Japanese squadron has been stationed at Beixiao Station for a long time. Their mission is to ensure the safety of the station's material transfer station;
There is also a large group of Japanese soldiers stationed in Yuci City. It only takes more than an hour for them to arrive at the station. If you take a car, it will only take 20 to 30 minutes;
This reaction time is very fast. After all, a reinforced squadron of Japanese soldiers can withstand a regiment's attack for more than half an hour.
Responsible for guarding the station is the Shiqiao Squadron of the independent fourth brigade, which has strengthened a heavy machine gun squad equipped with 4 Type 92 heavy machine guns;
In this way, Shiqiao Squadron has 3 infantry squads and 1 heavy machine gun squad, with a total strength of more than 230 people. Relying on the station's defenses, even if China sends a regiment to attack, they can at least hold on until the reinforcements in Yuci City arrive. arrive.
In the mountain forest two kilometers away from the station, the Tiger Special Operations Brigade led by Shitou has been deployed. This time he brought two squadrons, the "Northeast Tiger" and the "Central Tiger". The "South China Tiger" squadron stayed at Shenxian Ridge and was responsible for the old camp. protection.
Squadron Chen Yan, who is responsible for the reconnaissance mission, has brought back information about the Japanese defenders and is reporting to Shitou. Captain Zheng Xiaolong of the Central China Tiger Squadron is also listening;
Chen Yan picked up a wooden stick and drew a simple defense map for the Japanese on the ground. He picked up a stone with the other hand and placed it on it. This is Yuci City:
"Captain, look, this is Yuci City, a brigade where Japanese soldiers are stationed. If you take a truck and add in the reaction and assembly time, the reinforcements can arrive in 27 minutes at the fastest;
This is a station. The Japanese have stationed a reinforced squadron and a heavy machine gun squad. If we attack by force, we will definitely not be able to do it with just a few people like us!
Of the three Japanese infantry teams, two are placed inside the station and one is placed on guard around the station."
After Chen Yan finished speaking, he picked up a stone, placed it opposite the station, and continued:
"This is Baihe Peak, a commanding height of more than ten kilometers around, about 1.5 kilometers away from the station. The Japanese commander was very cautious and placed half a team on the top of the mountain;
The purpose is to guard this commanding height and prevent anyone from passing through this point and attacking the station with light artillery such as mortars. "
Shitou nodded and started asking about Chen Yan:
"Old Chen, how is the terrain of Baihe Peak? Is it suitable to set up the Wei Shen Cannon on it?"
"Captain, I have found out from the local fellows that there is a platform on it, which is at least two minutes wide. Not to mention the Wei Shenpao, a mortar squad can deploy it. This is why the Japanese have to send people to defend it. .
The road up the mountain is very steep. There is only one road. The Japanese set up a machine gun on it to block the road up the mountain.
But this is not a problem. According to the fellow villagers, you can also climb up the rope from the back cliff. There are only about twenty Japs. To deal with them, you only need to send a small team up. "
After listening to Chen Yan's introduction, Shitou felt confident. Now with the Weishen single-barreled rocket launcher, the tactics of special operations have undergone revolutionary changes. Close combat is no longer needed. The range of several kilometers makes the Japanese hard to defend. ;
A few people carry a single-barreled rocket launcher and a few rockets on their backs. They can set up the cannon on any flat ground and shoot. After the shooting, they put the gun away and leave. The firepower is fierce and the lethality is high. This kind of special operations is the Japs' transport force. nightmare!
After understanding the enemy's situation, Chen Yan began to deploy combat missions. This time they brought out a total of 24 rockets and 3 single-barreled rocket launchers, and dedicated a squadron to carry these equipment.
"Old Chen, you lead two teams to clear the guard posts at the foot of Guizi Mountain, and then guard the outside to guard our retreat;
I personally led the remaining team to deal with the twenty-odd Japs on the White Crane Peak;
Squadron Zheng Xiaolong and Wei Shen are on standby at the bottom of the mountain. After I deal with the Japs on the mountain, I will notify you to go up the mountain. We will give the Japs at the station a super surprise! "
"Old Chen, Old Zheng, do you have anything to add?"
Under Chu Xiong's words and deeds, Shitou has become a special warfare expert. War is the most training thing. Now Shitou is able to command the Tigers' special warfare brigade with ease, and he is no longer Wu Xia Ameng three years ago.
Chen Yan and Zheng Xiaolong both shook their heads, agreed with Shitou's battle plan, and each carried out actions according to their own tasks...
At the top of Baihe Peak, a 92-heavy machine gun completely blocked the passage up the mountain. The Japs from the two detachments took turns on duty, while the other Japs were resting on the summit platform.
During lunch, Second Lieutenant Hirose was leisurely basking in the sun, while a few Japanese soldiers were roasting two plump pheasants by the fire, which they had hunted in the mountains and forests;
The food was usually very poor. Each person only had a can of beef or a salted fish rice ball to barely fill his stomach.
Second Lieutenant Hirose lives in the mountains and often sends people to the mountains and forests to catch some game to improve their food. This morning they were lucky and got two pheasants, and each person could get a large piece of chicken.
The pheasant has been roasted for more than ten minutes, and the fragrance is overflowing. Not to mention that Hirose is not basking in the sun. Even the Japanese on duty turn around and look at the top of the mountain from time to time. They are only a few dozen meters away from the top of the mountain. The scent already made their mouths water.
"Yo Xi, Takaoka-kun's barbecue skills have become much better. Once all the Chinese are eliminated, you can return to Kyoto and open a barbecue restaurant!"
When Sergeant Takaoka, who was in charge of the barbecue, heard Second Lieutenant Hirose's praise, he suddenly felt a little elated, and said to Second Lieutenant Hirose with a charming smile:
"Hirose-kun has given you too much praise. When the time comes, I will ask you to give me more praise. At that time, we will at least call you Mr. Hirose, Major!"
All the Japs laughed. Not only did Sergeant Takaoka cook the meat well, he was also good at flattering him. The picture made Second Lieutenant Hirose feel happy. In his opinion, it was a sure thing that he would be promoted to Major in the future. .
While they were joking, the first pheasant was roasted. Takaoka tore off the fattest chicken thigh and handed it to Second Lieutenant Hirose respectfully.
Hirose is not polite. In the whole team, this chicken thigh is the only one who has the qualification to taste Takaoka's craftsmanship first, and then the other Japanese.
Hirose picked up the roasted brown chicken leg, brought it to his mouth and sizzled off a large piece. His mouth was full of oil, and the other people were drooling when they looked at it...
“It smells so damn good, it’s a pity it’s a chicken leg!”
Team leader Ma Dahu, who had just climbed up from the top of the mountain, cursed secretly, and then decisively pulled the trigger of the crossbow. A crossbow arrow accurately hit the side of Hirose's neck from a 45-degree angle...
Almost at the same time, the crossbows in the hands of other team members also shot towards their respective targets.
"Puff puff……"
One by one, the Japanese reflexively touched their own necks or nape. Of course, some were shot in the face when they turned around. A pair of dog eyes were filled with fear, as if they had seen a seducer from hell...
