After all, it was dark and there were not many people there.
Other Eighth Route Army troops also passed by in this way. As long as the number is small, it will be fine.
Successfully entered the Jixi base area.
Arrive at Xiaoguozhuang.
This used to be the seat of the prefectural committee of the Jixi Base Area, but it is now empty.
Not only was it empty, it had also been set on fire. Only ruins were left. Almost everything that could be seen was burnt black.
Zhang Chu and others sat on the ground to rest. Gu Zidi went to contact the local armed forces.
Get in touch soon.
Someone arrived. It was Chen Taohua.
At this moment, she is fully armed. She is not at all like the delicate girl before.
Revolutionary struggle tempers people!
No matter who he was before, he eventually became a tomboy.
Chen Lihua was carrying an SVT-40 semi-automatic rifle on her back. Zhang Chu remembered that he had given it to her before.
"Chief Han!"
"Consultant Zhang!"
"You came just in time."
"If you come a little later, we will have to move to Pingxi."
Chen Lihua was relieved.
Then I introduced the basic situation to everyone.
"The Japanese's Okamoto unit came too quickly, and we didn't have enough defense."
"The troops have been dispersed and moved. Waiting for the opportunity."
Chen Lihua looked sad.
The Jixi base area is a guerrilla zone.
The so-called guerrilla zone means that the Eighth Route Army has no stable foothold.
Unlike other base areas, there are logistics, hospitals, and even small arsenals. There is nothing here. There are only some guerrillas or armed workers.
The reason is very simple, it is too close to the railway. The Japanese invaders raided frequently.
The Ping-Han Line runs through the north and south of the Jixi base area. The entire base area is like a skewer, strung in the middle by the Ping-Han Line.
The spear and shield are very prominent.
The Japanese must ensure the safety of the Ping-Han Line at all times.
This is the lifeline of the devil.
Once interrupted, the consequences will be disastrous. It will affect the entire North China war situation.
The Japanese invaders in Anyang, Xinxiang and other places will be in dire straits.
The main task of the western Hebei base area (guerrilla zone) is to paralyze the Japanese railway lines and find ways to bomb railways and trains.
Therefore, the battle between the two sides was very fierce.
In addition to the railway garrison, the Japanese invaders also equipped several infantry field regiments.
Okamoto Infantry Regiment is one of them.
"The Japanese troops divided into three groups and tried to surround us in the middle."
"Our policy is to break out of the enemy's encirclement, fight on the outside, and harass the enemy's rear."
A brief introduction to Chen Lihua.
This is the most basic anti-mopping tactic of the Eighth Route Army.
Commonly known as the flinging tactic, also known as you come and I go.
If you come to hit me, I will jump behind you so that you can't hit me.
If your rear is empty, I can still find an opportunity to stab you. If you feel pain, you will have to turn around and the sweep will be over.
The effect of such tactics is very obvious, but sometimes it fails.
For example, the Japanese invaders were too powerful.
Or maybe there is not enough strategic depth to distance ourselves from the Japanese invaders.
Unfortunately, the Jixi base area occupies both of them.
The Japanese came up as a regiment, with a total of 3,000 people. Including the assisting puppet troops, the number exceeded 5,000.
The main force in the western Hebei base area is three guerrilla groups, each with about a hundred people and less than two hundred people.
The strength ratio is almost one to ten.
how to spell?
It can only be to avoid the truth and attack the fictitious.
"How is the situation in Wen County?"
"Already given up."
"oh……"
Zhang Chu looked unmoved.
It turns out that Wen County has been abandoned!
Pity……
But there is no way.
A great man once said, if you save people and lose land, everyone and land will survive. If you save land and lose people, everyone and land will be lost.
It's easy as long as there are people.
While he was talking, Gu ZiDe had already returned. He also brought back more than a hundred people.
It is a guerrilla group that has been active in the western Hebei base area all year round. The leader is called Fang Yingying. His nickname is also a code name. However, not many people remember his original name.
"Consultant Zhang!"
"Captain Fang!"
Zhang Chu shook hands with the other party.
Fang Yingying expressed a warm welcome to Zhang Chu's arrival.
This is a man with great supernatural powers.
"Commander Zhang, from now on, we will obey your command."
"good!"
Zhang Chu was not polite either.
Commanding guerrillas is his favorite thing.
No pressure.
It can also make them reborn.
The original combat power was only 20, but it suddenly increased to more than 80!
This damn sense of accomplishment...
Why are you so obsessed with it?
I feel more excited than contributing 150 cannons.
No matter how powerful the headquarters artillery regiment is, I can't enjoy that sense of accomplishment...
"Show all your weapons."
"let me see!"
Zhang Chu spoke frankly.
The guerrillas showed off their weapons one after another.
Fortunately, I didn't see any old sleeves. I didn't see them made in Hanyang either.
Most of them are Mosinagan, and some are Yingqiqi. They are quite old.
"Where are the bullets?"
"Take them all out! Take them out!"
Zhang Chu continued to give instructions.
The guerrillas took out bullets one after another.
Some still have more than a dozen. Some still have a few. Some still have none at all.
There are more than 100 people, and all of them add up to less than 1,500 rounds of ammunition. It is quite pitiful. However, such weapons and ammunition are already considered good.
At any rate, I could barely resist the Japanese invaders.
Zhang Chu suddenly turned to look at Chen Lihua, "How many bullets do you have left?"
"Five." Chen Lihua answered.
Zhang Chu nodded thoughtfully.
Fortunately, she gave all the bullets to the guerrillas. Otherwise, they wouldn't have so many bullets.
The SVT-40 semi-automatic rifle also uses Mosin-Nagant rifle bullets. Both are universal.
Only Ying Qiqi is different.
what to do?
This is easy!
Replenish bullets directly.
"Bang!"
It is enough for one airdrop box to land.
Inside are two types of bullets. A total of twenty boxes containing 30,000 rounds. 15,000 rounds for each type.
One hundred rounds of ammunition for each rifle, that's about it.
The key is other weapons.
There are no light machine guns.
Heavy machine guns are useless.
Added light machine guns.
Let’s start with the Shiting dp-28 chicken.
Three more 81mm mortars.
This is standard equipment for guerrillas.
All weapons used were Soviet-made weapons.
What should Ying Qiqi do?
Leave it to Gu Zidi and others. They use Ying Qiqi.
It would be too bad if the same guerrilla group, consisting of a hundred or so people, actually used two different types of weapons.
Bullets are difficult to prepare.
Mosin-Nagant, paired with chicken and mortars, can be used as the main force.
Sure enough, Fang Yingying immediately beamed.
It’s all good stuff!
There are so many good things, so you don’t have to be afraid when encountering Japanese.
This 81mm mortar can shoot at each other with the Japanese 92 Infantry Cannon. The range is a little farther than the 92 Infantry Cannon.
They have all seen the Deggarev machine gun.
The former 28th Regiment of the Central Hebei Military Region has returned to the Central Hebei Military Region and passed by the Western Hebei base area. They all became familiar with this rotary machine gun.
Arrange machine gunners immediately.
Arrange the mortar team immediately.
Give the freed rifles to Gu Zidi and the others.
As a result, almost thirty rifles were freed up.
Sure enough, once you have heavy weapons, you don't need so many rifles.
"Report!"
"The Japs' top soldiers are searching this way!"
While talking, the scout arrived.
But the Japanese were also very cunning, and they actually caught the clues of the guerrillas and pursued them quietly.
Of course, the guerrilla reconnaissance posts are also experts and will not be easily ambushed by the enemy.
Otherwise, the guerrillas would have been wiped out long ago and would not survive now.
