When Shang Zhen entered the group finger disguised by branches, to his surprise, Gao Huaide, Leng Xiaozhi, and Mo Jianchen were all there.
Seeing Shang Zhen coming, the three people nodded to him.
At this time, Lu Cao said: "What happened when you came back from Taihang Mountain? The military commander came to visit us."
When Shang Zhen heard what Lu Cao said, he knew that Lu Cao was talking about the people they had met before. He thought to himself, this military commander has a really good nose!
"We eliminated a puppet army in a village." Gao Huaide explained.
At this time, Shang Zhen directly asked about this matter when he saw Lu Cao, and he determined one thing. Even if Lu Cao was not a Communist Party, he was not far from the Communist Party. It was obvious that Gao Huaide helped the Eighth Route Army with weapons and ammunition, and Lu Cao There's no way Fucking doesn't know.
As he stayed in the 691 group for a longer time, Shang Zhen already knew more things.
Not only myself, but in general the entire Northeastern Army was pro-communist. Of course there was only one reason here, and that was that both sides wanted to resist Japan.
Those commanders of the Northeast Army. Whether it was the 51st or 53rd Army, the 57th or 67th Army, or even the commander of the Cavalry Army, there was no one who was not pro-communist.
I think that during the Xi'an Incident, the top management of the Northeast Army formed an alliance with the CCP, so the Xi'an Incident was peacefully resolved.
Because of this, Gao Huaide was able to get so many weapons and ammunition out of the army's ammunition depot. It was impossible to say that the people above had no idea that it was impossible.
"Have you killed all those puppet soldiers?" Lu Cao asked again.
"We didn't kill them all. We captured more than a dozen prisoners, but if they were traitors, they were Chinese. Later I asked Shang Zhen to release them." Gao Huaide explained.
"I don't know why, but Juntong and his gang came to us when they heard there was a battle there." Lu Cao said again.
"Have they captured the prisoners you released?" Gao Huaide asked again.
"This is still unclear, and it is impossible for the military commander to tell me the truth, but it is normal to suspect our Northeastern Army.
All of a sudden, the arsenal was out of so many guns and ammunition. Of course, the military commander would guess that these guns and ammunition were taken to the Eighth Route Army.
And you are returning from the direction of Taihang Mountain.
Dozens of puppet soldiers were wiped out by half the number of people, and the other half still used traps.
And you are returning from the direction of Taihang Mountain, which can already remind them of something. "Lu Cao sighed.
"I wish I had killed all those prisoners." Gao Huaide couldn't help but sigh.
At that time, Shang Zhen and the others wiped out most of the puppet troops in an ambush, and the remaining puppet troops surrendered.
In fact, there were different opinions on how to deal with the remaining prisoners at that time. Shang Zhen did not express his position, but Wang Laomao advocated killing all the puppet soldiers, but Gao Huaide disagreed.
And this further confirmed Shang Zhenwang's judgment that Gao Huaide was a Communist. After all, Communist troops did not kill prisoners.
There are advantages and disadvantages to not killing the prisoners or to killing the prisoners. The advantage is naturally that after the opponent is released as a prisoner, he will not be determined the next time he resists.
Otherwise, if the enemy knows that they will definitely die after being captured, they will naturally strengthen their determination to resist.
If you just release the prisoners, it is inevitable that die-hard elements among the prisoners will come back and continue to become enemies of your side.
However, the Communist Party's troops have always adopted a policy of preferential treatment of prisoners.
Not to mention the civil war, even in the subsequent War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, all U.S. military prisoners were treated preferentially, so much so that the U.S. military prisoners were eating rice, while the volunteer troops were gnawing frozen potatoes.
This also led to the fact that when the US military surrendered, they would actively surrender to the volunteers instead of the Korean People's Army.
"If you don't kill, then don't kill. You all should be careful in the future." Lu Cao said, but then he said in a more serious tone: "Huaide, go to the ammunition depot and check to see if anyone has leaked it. The sound of the wind.”
Gao Huaide said "Okay".
At this time, they suddenly heard the sound of cannons coming from the north.
Everyone subconsciously rushed out of the regiment command post. At this time, they saw smoke and dust rising from the explosion in the town ahead.
No need to ask, this is the beginning of the Japanese attack again.
The Japanese army had the advantage in firepower. If it was just a plane bombing, it might hit somewhere. But since the artillery shells were already hitting the town ahead, wouldn't they start a ground attack?
This time the position of the 691st Regiment was arranged like this. The first battalion was in the town in front, and the second and third battalions were in the back. The three battalions were arranged in the character "pin".
Originally, after learning from the Meihua Town tragedy, Lu Cao did not plan to set up a position in the town, but this was a plain area, and if they did not defend the town, they would have no chance of defending.
Therefore, Lu Cao could only mobilize some of the people there to evacuate, but the remaining people vowed to live and die with the town.
This situation undoubtedly made Lu Cao both moved and ashamed.
Of course, I was moved by the fact that the people also knew the importance of resisting Japan. I was ashamed that the soldiers were incompetent and allowed the people to be massacred by the invaders.
Lu Cao began to look forward with a telescope.
"What should you people do?" At this time, Leng Xiaozhi asked Shang Zhen in a low voice.
"We should go to the enemy's rear to cause trouble. With just our few men holding the position, it won't do much good." Shang Zhen replied seriously.
Although Gao Huaide knew about the relationship between Shang Zhen and Leng Xiaozhi, there was Mo Jianchen here after all, and Shang Zhen didn't want his affair with Leng Xiaozhi to become known to everyone.
"Actually, you don't call this causing trouble, this is guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines!" At this time, Mo Jianchen spoke.
"Huh?" Shang Zhen looked at Mo Jianchen.
Shang Zhen still had a good impression of Mo Jianchen.
Even though Mo Jianchen is only two years older than Shang Zhen, he is an Eighth Route Army soldier, or in other words an old Eighth Route Army soldier, or an old Red Army soldier. In other words, he is a veteran with much older qualifications than him. That was the Long March. Come here!
Shang Zhen was actually very curious about the Red Army. If a team could travel through most of China and still survive in the end, how strong must its military quality be!
At this time, Mo Jianchen saw that Shang Zhen had turned his attention to him, so he said 16 words. These 16 words would be famous in later generations. Every military enthusiast would know this, but at this time Shang Zhen heard it. There is a feeling of enlightenment.
"When the enemy advances, we retreat. When the enemy is stationed, we harass him. When the enemy is tired, we attack. When the enemy retreats, we pursue him." Mo Jianchen said.
What Mo Jianchen was talking about was the 16-character formula formed by the CCP troops during the long-term guerrilla war.
"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue." Shang Zhen murmured and repeated these 16 words.
If they used these methods involuntarily when fighting the Japanese army, these 16 words spoken by Mo Jianchen highly summarized their fighting methods.
Oh, there are capable people in the Eighth Route Army! At this time, Shang Zhen realized.
These 16 words do not mean how high the cultural level is, but because they are concise and summarized in one sentence, which is the highest guiding principle when the weak defeats the strong.
"If Captain Shang is interested, I can explain it to you when I have time.
This is the experience and lesson learned from countless lives since the establishment of our army. "Mo Jianchen said again.
Shang Zhen quickly responded "Okay".
But before Shang Zhen finished pronouncing the word "good", Lu Cao, who was holding a telescope, suddenly shouted "bad"!
"What's wrong?" Gao Huaide asked hurriedly.
"The Japanese troops are outflanking, and they want to surround the entire battalion!"
As soon as Lu Cao finished saying this, Shang Zhen and the others heard the sharp whistling sound of artillery shells flying in the distance, and then the artillery shells exploded more than 50 meters away from them.
It seems that the Japanese army is going to attack that town first, and their artillery fire has begun to extend.
