Dawn, lingering clouds, gentle breeze.
Green gauze tent.
The column approved Hu Yi's suggestion and mobilized more than 200 militiamen for him.
A team of more than two hundred people had a total of more than ten rifles.
An enemy machine gun suddenly rang out on the highway.
Immediately the Japanese retaliated, mortars and grenades were fired.
The Japanese captain originally planned to secretly surround Yongnian County.
Unexpectedly, they were ambushed by the peripheral troops of "Xu Tieying" when they were still twenty miles away from Yongnian County.
He took out the tap fire and lit it and looked at his watch. At half past five, the four-way encirclement team should be almost in place.
In this case, let's invade Yongnian County openly.
The highway extends eastward between the green gauze tents.
A small river runs through it.
Create an open space.
Hu Yi chose to ambush in the open area.
Be prepared to prevent the puppet troops from sneaking into the green gauze tent after the battle begins.
At that time, the materials on the highway will become the target of both parties.
Whoever dares to touch the materials on the highway will die.
Some people who are not afraid of the cold bathe in the river.
There was a lot of noise.
More than a hundred people hid in the sorghum fields on the north side of the highway and slept.
On the road, there is a long queue of puppet army baggage.
There are sorghum fields on both sides of the road ahead.
Walking on the road with green gauze tents on both sides, the puppet soldiers had to be very alert.
More than a dozen puppet soldiers nodded nervously with grimaces, imitating the Japanese soldiers holding Czech-style light machine guns and shooting at the green gauze tents on both sides of the road.
Da da da.
The whizzing bullets knocked down a sorghum stalk.
It is said that this move is called fire reconnaissance!
The peasants who were following behind, with mules neighing and horses croaking, shouted and cracked their whips in their hands.
The puppet soldiers scattered in the middle were carrying guns and yawning. Not only did they not help, they also held the mule and carriage with one hand and walked with their eyes closed.
The puppet troops at the end followed lazily, and even if they were attacked, the brothers in the front would be shot first.
On the mule cart, there were pots, pans, grain bags and stretchers, but there was no box containing bullets.
Hu Yi put down the telescope and waved.
He did not fully adopt Madman Yang's suggestion of letting go of the puppet ration team.
He believed that this group of puppet soldiers should be used to explore the way, and they would still fight, but not here.
For the Ninth Battalion, the seizure of puppet guns and ammunition was no longer enough to satisfy their appetite. Those materials were of little use, so let them go first.
Since you want to pack the baggage, find the target at once.
It seems that Jiuying has never considered producing its own bullets, not even Li Xiang who plays with gunpowder.
It is different from many battalion-level troops that will set up a repair shop or a reloading ammunition workshop.
Everything in the Nine Battalions depends on capture.
Everyone seems to have developed a habit of looking for enemies when they run out of bullets.
Let this group of puppet soldiers pass by first.
Arrange a platoon of soldiers two miles away, hit them and then run away.
Show the enemy weakness first.
The order was quickly issued to Luo Fugui.
In desperation, Luo Fugui immediately ordered a row from Big Dog.
Thirty people were selected from the militiamen hiding in the green gauze tent to form a platoon.
Prepare to go two miles to the east and deliver the puppet army's baggage team.
This battle can only be lost but not won.
It is difficult to win a battle, but easy to lose a battle.
Lead the people to find the ambush location again.
The big dog couldn't sleep, so he lay on the edge of the sorghum field on the north side of the road and looked west.
Luo Fugui took Big Dog as the second echelon. According to Boss Hu's arrangement, his side had to fight first.
As the commander of the ambush unit, he was lying next to the big dog, making a steady and gentle sound.
Big Dog couldn't help but mutter: "You can't sleep at this time, the Eighth Route Army is really different from the National Army."
Another series of gunshots was heard from the north, followed by a loud burst of gunfire.
It rang for a while and then became quiet again.
Time passed slowly, and the sky in the east turned white.
The big dog suddenly pounced and kicked Luo Fugui's thigh: "Here we come."
Luo Fugui turned over and sat up, and said confusedly: "Who is here, roasting chicken?"
"It's the correspondent. I guess the puppet army's transport team is about to arrive." Big Dog said and curled his lips: "As long as you can outsmart the puppet army's transport team, let alone roast chicken or goose!"
"Your grandma's legs! Dare you kick me?" Luo Fugui covered his thigh and looked at the vague footprints.
The big dog looked at the soldiers gesturing in the sorghum field opposite: "Don't talk nonsense, Chief Hu and others are signaling from the front. They are a company of more than a hundred people. There are civilian husbands."
Luo Fugui grabbed the binoculars from next to the big dog and looked at them for a while, but found nothing.
Lying down again, he lazily looked at the morning stars in the sky through the gaps in the sorghum leaves: "Don't worry, the distance may still be ten miles or eighty miles. It's still early. Don't be surprised. Let's sleep for a while."
The sound of gunfire from the direction of Yongnian County was faintly heard, and slowly turned into a continuous buzzing sound.
It seems that the Japanese and the outer troops of the bandits were involved in the fire.
Rumble.
Suddenly there was a thunderous sound of artillery in the sky, echoing among the clouds.
Luo Fugui sat up suddenly: "Get ready for battle!"
"Be prepared, you won't even see a ghost." The big dog muttered while biting the cake.
As soon as Luo Fugui gave the order, the correspondent immediately sent the order, and rustling sounds began to appear in the green gauze tent, and occasionally there were some coughing sounds.
"Ahem."
"Can you die if you don't cough?" a voice cursed.
"It's none of your business, believe it or not, I'm cheating on you?"
"Continue to sleep." The second order came next.
"Who gave the order?" Someone asked immediately.
"Captain Luo, go find him if you want." The correspondent looked arrogant.
"Grandma, I remember everything clearly. You are not allowed to pull the bolt, push the ammunition and load the gun without an order." Luo Fugui's lazy voice spread freely in the green gauze tent.
The big dog stared nervously not far away. The mighty puppet army on the road had passed the place where Chief Hu set up an ambush.
The figures ambush on both sides of the road immediately retreated
Since there is no need to win, it is better to hide deep in the green gauze tent.
However, Big Dog did not want to let all the puppet troops go. He wanted to get twenty-three guns to arm the militia.
It's best if you can get a gun, but forget it if you can't.
The quartermaster of the puppet city defense commander believed that there is no harm in being cautious when sailing a ten thousand year ship.
Even if the imperial army engages in a large-scale offensive like Yongnian County, it is basically impossible to win it in a day or two.
It takes three to five days to be considered normal.
The amount of ammunition consumed is not a small amount.
In the age of cold weapons, the army moved forward before using food and grass.
Entering the era of hot weapons, it is reasonable for the army to attack and follow with food and grass.
I was attacked by the Eighth Route Army yesterday, so I had to be careful this time. The imperial army said that the Eighth Route Army was connected to Xu Tieying.
With the habit of the Eighth Route Army, it is very possible to ambush their own baggage team.
Therefore, a company that was not very obedient was sent to escort the grain truck first, and the ammunition was then transported by imperial army vehicles.
The Tang dog rifle hidden in the green gauze tent was aimed at a puppet soldier carrying a short gun.
boom.
Gunshots fired.
The puppet troops on the road were startled.
He immediately shouted for the enemy to attack, followed by a puppet commander shouting for a counterattack.
More than a hundred rifles immediately opened fire on Qingsha Zhang.
A machine gun followed and opened fire.
As the firepower intensified, the puppet troops pulled bolts and pushed bombs more and more diligently.
Anyway, the puppet army is not short of bullets. Bullets can blow from the imperial army at any time like the wind.
He didn't even care that the person who fired the gun in the green gauze tent was obviously attracting firepower.
While shouting at the civilians to drive the mules and carriages away from the ambush point, they continued to blindly block fire.
After fighting for a while, the pseudo-company commander ordered to reduce the firing frequency. Although the bullets were blown by the strong wind, if they were all fired now, the wind would not blow them away and their lives would not be saved.
Finally, I heard the sound of hurried footsteps and the sound of clothes rubbing against sorghum leaves in the Ken gauze tent.
Then the sound faded away, disappearing to the north.
The pseudo company commander finally raised his head. The ambush firepower was not strong. It seemed that it should be Xu Tieying's small force.
He still knew what Lin Buchai said, and sighed and muttered: "Send someone back to report to the regiment leader that only a small group of bandits ambush."
The green gauze tent is more than twenty meters deep.
A lot of sorghum leaves fell beside the big dog. He looked through the dense stems and leaves and aimed his rifle at the puppet army officer who gave the order.
There were too many obstacles, and he was not completely sure that he could hit the puppet officer.
