In Dazhai Mountain, under a crooked-neck tree on the mountainside, when Han Yang and others heard that Yang Yuanshan had issued a combat mission, they were all very excited and gearing up.
It is the style of the soldiers of the entire independent regiment to be happy after hearing the battle, but the special agent camp is particularly outstanding.
Along the way from the special agent company to the special agent camp, in less than a year, the guys have fought several battles, and everyone enjoys the refreshing feeling of beating up the little devil!
He Yunfu heard that the attack time was two o'clock in the afternoon, and couldn't help but curiously asked:
"Batalion Commander, why is the attack time at two o'clock in the afternoon?
Why not fight in the morning, or even at night? "
"We cannot take advantage of our artillery in night battles. Starting at two o'clock, we will try to capture the coal mine in three hours, then move the loot overnight and retreat before dawn.
This is better for us. "
Yang Yuanshan explained.
Wei Dayong asked excitedly:
"Battal Commander, are our special operations companies still going to take down the Japs' headquarters this time?"
"No need. Look at the mountains over there?"
Yang Yuanshan pointed to the mountain peak in the distance.
Wei Dayong immediately picked up the telescope around his neck and looked over there.
"I saw it, what happened to the mountain?"
“There are little Jaap bunkers on those mountains, and in each bunker there are anywhere from a few to a dozen people.
Your task this time is to take them out and then let the artillery set up the artillery on the mountain.
Especially the tallest hat mountain, you must win it! "
"Catch! Don't worry, battalion commander, our special operations company guarantees to complete the mission!"
Wei Dayong is full of confidence.
“Just completing the mission is not enough.
I also want you not to make too much noise, at least not to alert the little Japanese defenders at the coal mine. "
Yang Yuanshan put forward higher requirements.
Hearing this, Wei Dayong also frowned a little.
According to Yang Yuanshan's request, grenades and mortars must not be used.
He immediately asked:
"Batalion Commander, can you shoot?"
“It’s best not to. But if you have to, you must shoot!
Not only can you shoot, but you can also use grenades and mortars! "
Yang Yuanshan answered.
Hearing this, Wei Dayong couldn't help but frown.
If you can't shoot, then this task is really difficult!
He instinctively ignored the second half of Yang Yuanshan's words. If the special operations company wants to complete its mission, it must complete it beautifully!
Since the battalion commander hopes not to shoot, Wei Dayong must do it!
At this time, Han Yang immediately suggested:
"Monk, why don't we just take action tonight, get close to the Japs' bunker in the dark, find a way to climb in, and kill them with bayonets."
"Hey, Zhong!"
Wei Dayong suddenly became excited.
Yang Yuanshan thought for a while and came up with an idea:
"You prepare some poisonous weeds that can emit thick smoke in advance, add chili powder or something in it. If the Japs are heavily guarded and you can't climb in, just throw the lit poisonous weeds into the bunker through the shooting holes. Then the Japs will definitely only If you can run out and escape, that's your chance."
Yang Yuanshan regretted that the dog system did not reward special types of ammunition such as tear gas and smoke bombs. Otherwise, it would have been much easier for Wei Dayong and the others to take down the bunker in the dark.
However, there are no serious tear gas or smoke bombs. An eight-way low-end version will do, and the effect should not be bad.
In our thousands of years of war history, the production and use of poisonous smoke balls has become commonplace.
After hearing Yang Yuanshan's idea, Wei Dayong instantly regained his confidence and nodded repeatedly:
"Chinese! Battalion Commander, this is a good idea!
I'll get ready right away! "
"good!
Your special operations company has to capture five bunkers in one night. Is it difficult?
Do you want me to send Xizi's sharpshooter squad to you?
What if we haven't taken it before dawn, so we'll attack by force? "
"Battalion Commander, don't worry. If we really want to attack by force, our special operations company can solve the problem."
Wei Dayong promised, patting his chest.
…
Wei Dayong went to prepare, and Yang Yuanshan ordered the two company commanders of the First Artillery Company and the Second Artillery Company:
"Ding Yongkuan, Gao Yuanzhi, your artillery will be deployed back to the peaks that the monks captured, and bombard the Japs' turrets and bunkers from the tops of the mountains.
These five peaks, headed by Mao Mao Mountain, may be far or near. You allocate your own artillery and manpower. Under the premise of ensuring that the range of the artillery can hit the little devils, you can calculate and shoot Zhuyuan in advance. Do you understand? "
"clear!"
The two agreed repeatedly, but they also felt a lot of pressure, especially Ding Yongkuan. It was not easy to transport the mountain cannon and cannon to the top of Mao Mountain.
He immediately decided to break up the meeting later and immediately go scout the terrain to see if he could find a suitable gun position for that precious cannon.
…
After arranging the artillery, Yang Yuanshan arranged the attack direction of several infantry companies, and then let everyone go down to prepare.
…
Towards evening, two correspondents sent by Zhang Dabiao came over.
"Report to Battalion Commander Yang that our first battalion has arrived at Taolingou. Our battalion commander sent us to inquire about the attack time."
Yang Yuanshan said calmly:
"Thank you for your hard work. Please report back to Battalion Commander Zhang immediately and launch the attack at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon!"
"yes!"
…
Time ticked by and it was getting dark.
Yang Yuanshan asked the soldiers to go to bed, but he and Han Yang stood on the hillside, looking at the Mao Mountain in the distance.
There, Wei Dayong and the soldiers of the special battle company were already sneaking in quietly.
The moonlight is very good tonight. The soldiers climbing the mountain should not have to worry about missing the mark and rolling down the hillside.
"Battal Commander, do you think Monk and the others can capture those bunkers as planned?"
Han Yang asked.
“If you can’t take it, you have to take it.
If you cannot set up artillery at the commanding heights, you will easily lose overall control of the situation.
Now I have no idea how many Japs will come out to support Shuiquan. If all the commanding heights can become our artillery positions, then I won't be afraid of how many people they will come out. "
Although Yang Yuanshan asked Zhang Dabiao to attack Shuiquan in order to make Shuiquan City unable to support the coal mine, he did not put all his hopes in this. He was still prepared to set up dozens of cannons at the commanding heights to keep the little devils in check.
Yang Yuanshan estimated that Maomao Mountain is only three or four kilometers away from Shuiquan Coal Mine and only six or seven kilometers away from Shuiquan City. With the range of cannons and Type 41 mountain cannons, it can even directly bombard Shuiquan City.
He estimated that the reason why the Japs did not deploy heavy troops on Mao Mountain, but only placed a small detachment, was that they thought Tubal Road could not have artillery with such a long range.
After all, in their opinion, the most commonly used mortars on Tubal Road are 60mm mortars or 82mm mortars. Even the Type 92 infantry cannon is a luxury item.
That's why there is such a huge loophole.
Otherwise, if they put a squadron or more of troops on the top of Mao Mountain and built a mountain cannon and three or four heavy machine guns, then today's battle would be impossible.
While the two were talking, they suddenly saw a faint flash of fire on the top of Hat Mountain in the distance.
Yang Yuanshan quickly kept silent, picked up the telescope and looked over there.
Under the bright moonlight, he vaguely saw figures moving outside the bunker.
…
Half an hour later, a special operations team member with blood on his body hurried back to report:
"Report to the battalion commander that the special operations company has captured the Hat Hill bunker! No guns were used!"
"Okay! Great! Do you have any casualties?"
Yang Yuanshan's heart dropped to his stomach and he asked quickly.
"Three comrades were injured, but they were not serious!"
"Okay. Send the wounded back for treatment quickly."
"yes!"
Seeing the special operations team member running away, Yang Yuanshan immediately said to Han Yang:
"Okay, we don't need to keep watch anymore. Let's go back to sleep. After daybreak, we can just wait for the monk to report his victory."
"Hahaha, battalion commander, this monk's special operations company is really a sharp knife!
I want to wait for this war, I will also be in the first brigade, select 20 or 30 people, and form a direct special operations platoon. What do you think? "
"As long as you can feed them, it's up to you.
Our team should be expanding soon. You and Lao He will have to stand alone sooner or later. It will be good for you to form some direct troops in advance and use them when the time comes. "
Like Li Yunlong, Yang Yuanshan has always been supportive of his subordinates who take the initiative to develop their teams and improve their combat effectiveness.
Being impressed by Yang Yuanshan, Han Yang naturally couldn't hide his excitement and nodded repeatedly.
He could tell that what Yang Yuanshan meant was that the secret service battalion would soon be upgraded to a secret service regiment, and he and He Yunfu would definitely be promoted to battalion commanders by then.
In one year, he, Han Yang, went from being a squad leader to a battalion commander. How could he not be excited about this?
It’s not that fast on a rocket!
…
After sleeping until dawn, Yang Yuanshan got up and heard Wei Dayong's victory report. All five bunkers were easily captured.
In the dark night, home-made smoke bombs were very effective. The little Japs were so smoked that they became dizzy in their sleep. They escaped from the bunker in embarrassment and were then killed with bayonets by the soldiers of the special operations company.
In the end, only one soldier was killed and seven were injured.
Asking Wei Dayong to take people to rest, Yang Yuanshan hurriedly ordered Han Yang to take people to help the artillery battery push the artillery up the mountain and set up gun emplacements.
However, just an hour after they arrived, Han Yang sent someone to report urgently:
"Battal Commander, from the east of Mao Mao Mountain, a small team of Japanese soldiers came out and ran towards the top of Mao Mao Mountain with a few crooked light machine guns. It seems that they discovered something unusual in the bunker on the top of the mountain."
Yang Yuanshan couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
It seems that there must be a regular communication mechanism between the little devil's mountaintop bunker and the guards at the coal mine, otherwise the little devil would not be able to send people to check.
He understood what Han Yang meant. There were still a few hours before the agreed attack time. If this little Jaap team was eaten now, the entire plan would be exposed.
But if we withdraw from the mountain, the plan to set up artillery at the commanding heights will also come to an end.
And once the little devil gets to the top of the bunker, he will still find something unusual.
Since there is no other choice, Yang Yuanshan can only give a decisive order:
"Order Han Yang to annihilate all these little devils without letting anyone slip through the net!"
Added Chapter 3, the end!
Thanks again for your support!
