Gunfire kept coming from the west.
The Ninth Company only has a few backbones and not many people. The task assigned by the regiment leader is... to protect the regiment reserve team!
The opportunity to confront the puppet army was naturally seized by Gao Yidao.
The members of the Ninth Company became reserve members, but they still took a platoon borrowed from the Second Company and marched westward quickly behind Commander Lu.
The borrowed soldiers were actually sent by Gao Yidao to protect Commander Lu. If the Commander didn't say anything, it was hard to say whether Hu Yi could mobilize them...
The regiment leader led the guards and followed the leading soldiers on the road ahead.
Hu Yiluo Fugui followed closely, followed by Ma Liang and Yatou.
Xiao Hongying pulled a strap on Luo Fugui's backpack and swung her two thin legs towards the birth. Suddenly she asked Ma Liang next to her: "Ma Liang, our guerrilla warfare must first have terrain advantages. Do you think this is possible on the plains?" Can you fight the Japanese?"
Ma Liang, who was next to him, shook his head: "We don't have the ability to fight against the Japanese on the plains. The regiment commander agreed to the plan proposed by the company commander because our current opponents are all puppet troops. The puppet troops' sweep this time has a very wide range." They have too many encirclements and too many small encirclements. They look very tight, but in fact their weaknesses are very obvious..."
The girl next to him answered: "I told you in the meeting this afternoon that only when the puppet troops are dispersed can we have the opportunity to defeat them all!"
Ma Liang nodded: "Then think about it carefully. The details of this battle plan are not perfect and there are many variables. You need to think more about how to change the battle plan in response to emergencies..."
Xiao Hongying suddenly smiled proudly: "Hey, your half-filled can of water is no better than mine! You have the nerve to let me think about it carefully? Let me tell you, this plan is just a different form of harassment and ambush. I see, there are a lot of loopholes!”
Ma Liang was stunned for a moment and immediately became interested: "Then tell me quickly!"
Xiao Hongying immediately asked proudly: "The puppet army is conducting a large-scale raid. Do you think... the little devil can really stay idle?"
Ma Liang thought for a while and shook his head: "You mean...the Japs are hiding somewhere behind? Could it be that the scouts who dispersed from the Second Company didn't even detect any news about the Japs?"
The pigtail kept shaking and looked at the darkness under the moonlight in the distance: "I didn't say that the Japanese were nearby! It's just... I think it's possible. The instructor of our class said that we should underestimate the opponent strategically and tactically. We can't underestimate any enemy! Think about it, we haven't seen any movement of the Japanese soldiers until now. Have we underestimated the Japanese soldiers? Isn't this a loophole?"
Ma Liang nodded and hurriedly followed Xiao Hongying's words to analyze: "Could it be that the Japs really think that raiding the occupied areas is too easy? With just the number of people in our independent group, the Japs may not even look down on us! So what? Don’t want to come out?”
Xiao Hongying had an unusual view: "This is unlikely. Think about it, this is the territory of the Japanese. His little devil can clean up everywhere openly and establish a prestige at the same time. So, I think the Japanese must be holding back bad intentions." Hiding somewhere we don’t know!”
"It makes sense!" Ma Liang agreed with the girl's opinion, and after thinking for a while he began to analyze the situation on the plain: "Think about it... the situation on the plain is not complicated. The main force of the Japanese is stationed in the county town, and the blockade towers and strongholds are stationed outside the city. There are puppet troops, maintenance committees in every town and village, and there are also traitors from the security forces, reconnaissance teams, and night raid teams. This time we have so many people active behind enemy lines. How could the enemy not know our whereabouts? ,dont you agree?"
Xiao Hongying was stunned for a moment: "You mean, the Japanese must have known our whereabouts for a long time? Then prepare..."
Hu Yi knew that Ma Liang and Yatou were discussing behind his back, and he deliberately told it to him. In the anti-Japanese university study class, there were such discussions every day, and he listened to the two talking nonsense without saying anything.
Xiao Hongying tugged at the strap of Hu Yi's shell gun holster walking in front of Ma Liang: "Hey, fox, can you hear us talking? Didn't you consider the Japanese factor when you came up with this plan?"
Hu Yi's voice came faintly: "The battlefield is ever-changing. Sometimes we need to think about simplicity. The simpler the plan, the easier it is to execute. As long as we are fast enough, guerrilla operations can also be carried out on the plains. This involves rapid penetration, blocking, Harassment...
The most critical point is that when we seize enough puppet uniforms and the communication between the puppet troops is not smooth, then we can even sneak into the puppet troops to mop up the troops. After fighting a few more times, we will be able to fight on the plains in the future. Who can tell the difference between the puppet army and the Eighth Route Army? By calculation or not, the puppet army is our mobile ammunition depot. Not only can it harass the enemy at night, it can even fight the puppet army head-on during the day! "
Xiao Hongzang got excited: "Uh... say it again, I didn't quite understand it!"
Captain Lu, who was in front, was very happy. He had learned a lot from the Anti-Japanese War. Thinking of this, he suddenly said: "Our purpose is to establish a base in the plains. After we have established a foothold, we can establish an intelligence system that can fight against the enemy. Then we can use The puppet troops are afraid of death, so they have to cooperate with us. At the same time, they mobilize the masses to dig tunnels in each village and set up militias. In the future, when our base area grows... let alone counter-mopping up, we will fight positional warfare with the enemy behind enemy lines. It's not difficult..."
Before Commander Lu finished speaking, a dark figure ran back from the front: "Report to the commander, the enemy is mopping up the troops about five miles ahead. The Second Company has arranged for people to touch the sentry and catch tongues!"
...
The crescent moon hangs alone in the deep sky, emitting a faint cold light.
Gusts of cold wind blew past the corpse hanging from the big tree, occasionally turning over the bloody clothes, carrying the faint smell of blood and drifting towards the darkness in the east.
A Japanese second lieutenant and more than ten of his men had a heated argument with Battalion Commander Wang.
The Japanese second lieutenant said with a ferocious face: "Don't forget that night pursuits are prohibited without an order from the imperial army. Battalion Commander Wang, I need a reasonable explanation!"
The translator quickly translated the bird language into Chinese.
Battalion Commander Wang felt extremely aggrieved. Looking at the Japanese in front of him, a second lieutenant dared to challenge his own rank of captain! But he had to explain the situation to the second lieutenant with gestures: "A small group of thirty-some Eighth Route Army troops tore through our defense line from behind and headed west. Shouldn't I pursue it?"
The translator quickly spoke to the Japanese second lieutenant...
"There are really only a few thirty? How is this possible?" The Japanese second lieutenant was a little dazed. Not long ago, news came from the artillery tower. A certain unit called to say that the main force of the Eighth Route Army was found due east of the current position, with at least two battalions of troops!
There is no word on what kind of fighting method the Imperial Association Army should use, how to detect the whereabouts of this group of Eighth Route Army, whether to block it or intercept it on the spot, or whether it can be stopped!
Obviously, the headquarters really wants to test the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Association Army!
After the translator translated his bird talk into Chinese, the second lieutenant shook his drunken head after thinking about it: "According to the news we got, a group of eight soldiers appeared in the east, numbering five to six hundred people, and they were behind us at this time. , you have to make up your own mind on how to deal with it now!"
After listening to the translator's words, Battalion Commander Wang was stunned for a moment, and he basically understood. He had long known that the imperial army conducted this raid to test the combat effectiveness of each department.
Compared with the ungrateful bandits and rogue security forces recruited by the imperial army, during several meetings in the county town, I had seen the security forces under the regiment commanders, battalion commanders, and even commanders. The combat effectiveness of the imperial association army was very high. A batch.
Now, when the Eighth Route Guerrilla Group appears, most of them are those from the Independent Regiment!
Thinking of the letter of appointment issued to him by the military commander not long ago, wouldn't he be able to get two credits if he destroyed this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers?
Such an opportunity to show off your skills is right in front of you...how can you miss it?
Thinking of this, Battalion Commander Wang immediately nodded to the Japanese Second Lieutenant: "I will make arrangements immediately!"
One order after another kept flying out of the mouth of Battalion Commander Wang, and the soldiers were constantly coming in and out...
reconnaissance...
Digging trenches...
Firepower layout...
Troops working together...
Deep battlefield settings...
Hold an enemy situation analysis conference...
Frontal blocking, flanking flanking...
I was stunned by the eyes of the Japanese second lieutenant...
What a dazzling and sexy operation...
