8 detachments, in addition to leaving the fire detachment to look after the house, 6 infantry detachments and artillery detachments were all dispatched. In addition, more than 500 people from the "moving brigade" with the district squad and militia as the backbone were dispatched, and more than 1,000 people were dispatched in batches. Sneak into the vicinity of Wanjia Town.
Such a large-scale operation can be called the largest military operation on the 8th Route in recent times, but Gao Jianwu started the fight without asking for instructions.
Anyway, it is a "battalion"-sized organization, and now has the freedom of action to conduct independent operations within the independent regiment.
Shen Quan led the team to attack Wanjia Town, and Gao Jianwu robbed the army. The two had a clear division of labor.
...
Hidden in the snow, even though it was only 30 meters away from the railway tracks, the little Japanese armored trains that patrolled the railway every once in a while were invisible as if they were blind.
Zhou Shaoping's heart was surging, and he was extremely impressed by the snow camouflage suit provided by Dagushan.
Zhou Shaoping, who was originally the platoon leader of the main force, had some personal feelings about coming to Dagushan to "study", but the regiment leader personally arranged it, so Zhou Shaoping could only obey the order.
However, just a few days in Dagushan completely subverted Zhou Shaoping's imagination, and at the same time destroyed his pride as the main force.
Facing Gao Jianwu's unparalleled training subjects and special equipment, Zhou Shaoping felt like a layman in combat.
Just like the camouflage clothes he was wearing now, Zhou Shaoping knew that Dagushan was not only a kind of snow clothes, but also special clothes suitable for different terrains such as mountain camouflage.
Although not every Dagushan guerrilla can equip it, and only the commandos have it now, but even so, Zhou Shaoping was completely stunned.
In his world, he never imagined that a combat uniform could make a person disappear from the battlefield in just a few dozen seconds.
Who in the independent group would have thought of such a magical method?
"Team Gao," Zhou Shaoping came back to his senses, looked at Gao Jianwu next to him, and said softly, "The armored car is a big guy who is difficult to deal with. It will not be easy for us to kill him."
"Don't worry, we have the means to deal with it." Gao Jianwu smiled, "Our biggest challenge is the military ranks."
Gao Jianwu's eyes drifted into the distance, as if he wanted to see what the military column in the distance was carrying.
But it's obviously not possible.
"Remember, if a large number of little Japs come out to fight back, then we must retreat without hesitation!" Gao Jianwu warned.
This is why Gao Jianwu must follow Zhou Shaoping's team. After all, this is not a direct unit. He has just taken over, and Gao Jianwu does not dare to let them go.
As for the Hammer team, there is no need to worry about Gao Jianwu's orders.
"Understood!" Zhou Shaoping nodded heavily and fought side by side with Gao Jianwu. Zhou Shaoping felt honored.
This is the respect for the strong after seeing how powerful Dagushan is.
This is what the military is like, the stronger you are, the easier it is for others to obey you.
Time passed by, and if it were an ordinary person, they would have been frozen in the snow.
However, after Gao Jianwu upgraded his explosive equipment, cloth and clothing options appeared for military supplies. This kind of waterproof balloon cloth was also one of them. Naturally, Gao Jianwu selected it. In the name of outsourcing, he first bought a set of it for the commando team and made it into waterproof balloons. Pads for the commandos to carry with them.
Although it is still very cold to lurk in the snow now, it is completely different from when Zhou Shaoping and others lurked in the snow alone in cotton-padded clothes.
What's more, each of them also has a pair of leather shoes.
Plus a submachine gun, a full magazine of 200 rounds, and a box cannon.
Coupled with a machine gun group composed of two light machine guns, with such equipment, Zhou Shaoping felt that his team had no reason to lose even if it ambushed a squadron of little Japs.
Because it is possible to kill half a squadron of imps at the very beginning.
It's really not that cool to directly use a submachine gun against a little devil to kill the 38-year-old Gai.
...
The train, which was puffing out long white steam, seemed to be a bit late.
However, Gao Jianwu and the others, who heard the sound from afar, did not complain at all. Instead, they instantly became energetic.
"Attention, the Japs' armored vehicles are coming. No shooting is allowed without my order."
Gao Jianwu lowered his voice and ordered to Zhou Shaoping and the others.
...
Han Gang was more nervous and excited than Zhou Shaoping.
He didn't know where the captain got a 92 infantry cannon!
This is a real barrel cannon!
Although this gun is almost the weakest among the cannons, Han Gang, who was born in the 8th line, is completely satisfied to be able to use this thing.
That's something the brigade commander's artillery battalion hasn't even equipped yet.
What's more, the combat mission Gao Jianwu gave him today was to kill the railway armored vehicles!
Without the 92 infantry gun, this armored vehicle that can resist machine guns would be a nightmare for the guerrillas!
But with the 92 Infantry Cannon, that layer of armor is as fragile as paper to the 92 Infantry Cannon.
Hearing the churning sound of the train, Han Gang, who was familiar with the Little Devil Railway, knew that the railway armored vehicle would arrive soon.
He took a few artillerymen, painted the armor of a 92 infantry gun white, mixed with the white snow and a bush of grass, and stood waiting more than 200 meters away facing the railway tracks inconspicuously.
The artillery shells have been loaded long ago, and the preview of the designated target on the railway has been completed.
Now just waiting for the prey to arrive, Han Gang will complete his first kill on an armored vehicle in his combat career.
You must know that he got this task after fighting with Liu Shiqiang for a while.
Liu Shiqiang of the artillery detachment would rather give up the opportunity to attack Wanjia Town than get the chance to kill the armored vehicle first.
However, Liu Shiqiang had just joined Route 8 after all, and he took the initiative to give in after a while.
Gao Jianwu is willing to give everyone a fair chance, but Liu Shiqiang must know it well.
...
Shen Quan led the first and second detachments and the artillery detachment, which was only 2 miles away from Wanjia Town. It almost formed an isosceles triangle with the ambush location of Gao Jianwu and others, but at the vertex.
If the little devils from Wanjia Town dare to come out, it will be more convenient for them and they can intercept them at right angles.
At the same time, in order to prevent encounters with small Japanese soldiers in the military formation, the team should evacuate quickly.
If it were not for the troop transport column, Shen Quan would have chosen the opportunity to intercept and divide his troops to attack Wanjia Town in a two-pronged approach, completely wiping out the little Japanese and the second Japanese in Wanjia Town.
Compared with Gao Jianwu and others who were on the railway side, there was no train in sight where Shen Quan was ambushing, and there was a hill in the middle, so they waited even more anxiously.
Chen Quan stared at the sky closely, waiting for the signal flares to appear in the sky.
No one thought that today, this battle would be extraordinary.
Because no one thought that such an unconventional special battle would happen here.
Gao Jianwu did not expect that the things loaded on the train exceeded his imagination.
