Seeing Ye Zhiqiu's serious look, the guard immediately recalled seriously, "Just after nine o'clock, when they left Da Nianzi, I went out of their way to help them."
"Do you know which way they took?" Ye Zhiqiu continued to ask.
"Zhaozhuang, Dayong Village!"
"Zhaozhuang, Dayong Village!" Ye Zhiqiu read the names of the two villages, walked quickly to the front of the map, glanced at it, and shouted loudly: "Du Sanping!"
"Yes!" A strong voice outside the tent answered immediately. Immediately, a strong soldier walked in from outside the tent and saluted Ye Zhiqiu, "Batalion Commander, what is your mission?"
"You take fifty people with you immediately and get here as quickly as possible!"
"Is this the tiger's mouth?"
"Yes! You have to be fast! You take a small road and get here as fast as you can, as fast as you can, and try to stop Political Commissar Yue here. Then..." Ye Zhiqiu frowned at the map. Eyebrows, then your finger points to a place! "Then you protect Political Commissar Yue from here. Also, send a few people to Zhaozhuang to see if there are any Japs hiding there. Remember to send people to investigate, be smart, and don't let the Japs discover it. .”
"Yes!" Du Sanping saluted, "Captain, there are about 80 people in our security company. I will take away fifty, which leaves only thirty. This security headquarters..."
"Get out, get out, do the labor and management need your protection?" Ye Zhiqiu yelled, not wanting to waste any more time explaining to the guard company commander.
"Yes!" Du Sanping saw that the leader was anxious and knew that the mission was urgent, so he immediately turned around and went out.
After Ye Zhiqiu saw Du Sanping go out, he stared at the map for a while, and then slapped himself twice in the mouth.
Upon seeing this, the guard immediately went to pull him away, but was kicked aside by Ye Zhiqiu.
The guard stood up and immediately ran to Ye Zhiqiu and grabbed his hand: "Captain, what are you doing? Why are you beating yourself!"
"The boss and the employer deserve a beating, why don't you give yourself a slap in the face to relieve your anger?! Get out of here!"
The guard didn't listen at all, but still held Ye Zhiqiu's hand tightly and wouldn't let go, fearing that he was doing something self-harming.
"Okay, okay, I'm done fighting, it's okay."
Ye Zhiqiu's words were much calmer, and the guard gently let go of his hand.
Ye Zhiqiu cursed himself for being useless. When he handed over to Ding Wei, Ding Wei had told him that the Japanese had massacred villages to cover up their whereabouts in order to sneak attack on his headquarters.
At that time, he was just getting angry and did not consider the Japanese's tactical intention of massacring the village.
Just when he was worried that he couldn't find any trace of Shen Gu, he suddenly thought of whether the Japanese would be hiding in a certain village again.
More than 1,000 Japanese were not a small number, and they needed a big village to hide their whereabouts, so he immediately thought of the largest village behind him--Zhaozhuang!
And Zhaozhuang is a village that needs to be covered for evacuation, and it is the only way for the political commissar to pass.
If he were traveling normally, he would be able to arrive in the afternoon, but now that Political Commissar Yue was leading more than 200 fellow villagers, his movements would be slow, so he quickly sent out a security company to intercept them.
The people have been sent out, and now we can only hope that Du Sanping can catch up.
Also, fellow villagers of Zhaozhuang, I hope the Japanese can be more lenient.
The cigarette burned his fingers, and Ye Zhiqiu was burned. He shook his hand subconsciously, threw the remaining cigarette butt to the ground, took a look, and felt a little painful.
After sorting out his thoughts, as the leader of the regiment, a war was imminent and there were many things to do. Therefore, he could only put aside the matter of Zhao Zhuang and Political Commissar Yue and wait for the situation to develop while he took the guards to inspect the position. .
At the forward position of Yawuwu, Ye Zhiqiu hid in the trench and used a telescope to check the Japanese's arrangement. It was almost as he expected.
It's a pity that it's almost the same, but very difficult to fight!
The Japanese's almost textbook attack method was able to suppress the Chinese army at that time.
Why, the equipment is too poor.
Take the simplest infantry as an example. They are basically equipped with rifles. The Japanese's Sanba Daigai can shoot at more than 200 meters and hit the target. But for us, Hanyang's guns can be fired at 100 meters, and the bullets don't even know where to go.
There were many cases where a small team (about 70 people) defeated our company or even our battalion. This situation did not get better until the end of 41, as more were captured.
The trenches in Duck Docks are now much stronger than three months ago. Many places are reinforced with wood. The traffic trenches are more complicated than before, and there are also many small traps added. Even if the Japanese attack, they can still be tricked. A handful.
After wandering around in the traffic trench, I found that I was still short of ammunition. I saved the little ammunition I had, so I just insisted on the Japanese's three-long banzai charge.
Looking at the scarce ammunition, Ye Zhiqiu remembered that the puppet troops known as ammunition carriers did not appear on the battlefield this time, so he asked: "Are there no puppet troops in the attacking troops this time?"
"No, you little Japs from Yishui! But there is good news. The intelligence just sent back by the comrades from the reconnaissance company said that this time the proportion of Japs recruits is relatively large." Huang Liang, the commander of the first battalion, replied.
After hearing Huang Liang's words, Ye Zhiqiu immediately said seriously, "Don't underestimate the enemy! The little Japanese recruits may use more bullets for training than you."
"Yes!" Huang Liang quickly corrected his attitude.
"That's right. But the little devils have also imitated thieves and stopped sending puppet troops to deliver ammunition to us." Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile.
"It's okay, the Japs will give them the same, and the quality of the Japs' gifts are still high. Maybe we can capture a few crooked weapons?" Huang Liang said confidently.
Ye Zhiqiu turned around and patted Huang Liang's shoulder to express his approval, "You are quite confident. If you can capture it, just stay in your camp!"
"Thank you, captain!" Huang Liang grinned and immediately stood at attention and saluted.
The soldiers in the trenches were all busy. Some were inspecting weapons, some were counting supplies, and some veterans were surrounded by two or three recruits who were listening to the veterans explaining combat skills.
Looking at the sky, it was already afternoon. Ye Zhiqiu had not eaten anything since morning. At this time, he felt a sense of hunger in his belly, "Have the soldiers eaten?"
"All dry food has been distributed. Most of the soldiers in the battle did not eat it. Only a small number of soldiers repairing the fortifications ate some." Huang Liang answered truthfully.
After thinking for a while, Ye Zhiqiu said, "Eat what you have to eat. If the fight starts later, it won't be okay if you can't keep up with your physical strength."
Huang Liang wanted to say something else, but Ye Zhiqiu stopped him, "I'll notify the cooking team to do it later! Just don't worry about beating the Japanese."
"yes!"
Ye Zhiqiu felt bad, the war was about to begin, but now these soldiers did not even dare to eat.
"Report, a call from the division headquarters!" A communications soldier ran to Ye Zhiqiu and stood at attention, saluting.
Ye Zhiqiu took a look at the telegram, and then his brows relaxed a little:
Cover all villagers to retreat to a safe area; stay there until 5pm tomorrow.
