Chapter 042 Listening is false, seeing is true (seeking)
"Attack him and save him..." Zhong Chengjun kept repeating these four words with a thoughtful look on his face.
He has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running away.
As a veteran of the guard company, I have had no less contact with regimental commander Kong Jie than the company commander below.
He was by Kong Jie's side when he was making decisions in many battles, and there were many examples of battles in which he was able to save the enemy.
I was influenced by my ears and my eyes, and I learned about 50% to 60%.
Combined with the current situation of the guard squad, an idea suddenly appeared in my mind: "Squad leader, I have an immature way of playing, please help me point it out!"
"Split the troops into two and stage a big show of chasing and intercepting the Japanese and puppet troops outside the Wushan Town stronghold. Let the Japanese and puppet troops staying behind watch us eat their attacking troops and force them to send people out to respond!"
"Another force set up an ambush to attack the supporting force and eliminate them outside the stronghold to create conditions for attacking the artillery tower!"
After hearing this, Huang Yu agreed: "The idea is right, but some areas still need to be improved!"
"The strength of the guard squad is limited, and there are not that many people to split into two."
"Then we won't divide the troops!" Zhong Chengjun continued to propose as his mind became more active.
"Assign a combat team to watch the prisoners and act like Japanese puppet troops. A dozen or so will be enough."
"Others were responsible for outflanking and blocking the Japanese and puppet troops eight to nine hundred meters away from the stronghold. The little devils in the stronghold could just see the firefight, but they couldn't see it very clearly."
"When the Japanese troops break out of the stronghold, a few veterans will immediately turn around and greet them!"
"The remaining seven Japs in the stronghold have a squad leader, a machine gun team, a grenade team, and two riflemen. The machine guns and grenade can kill us from a long distance and pose the greatest threat."
"We can operate at night and use the cover of night to minimize the threat!"
"No, the attack on the stronghold must be carried out during the day and cannot be delayed until night!" Huang Yu suddenly interrupted.
"There are only sixteen Japanese and puppet troops left in the stronghold. If they can't clearly see the fighting situation outside the stronghold, they won't dare to come out no matter how brave you are!"
"Only when they operate during the day, and are sure that there are only a dozen of us and no other ambushes around, will they dare to leave the stronghold!"
Huang Yu's analysis was very reasonable. Zhong Chengjun was convinced after hearing this, but his brows furrowed at this moment and he immediately raised his concerns: "The chance of success during daytime operations is indeed higher, but the Japanese grenades and machine guns
It will definitely cause us casualties!"
"No, leave those Japs to me to make sure they don't have a chance to shoot!" Huang Yu confidently accepted this almost impossible task.
Seeing Zhong Chengjun looking at him with disbelief, Huang Yu immediately squatted on the ground and gestured with a stone: "The place where we are performing is at least 800 meters away from the stronghold. After the Japanese and puppet troops rushed out of the stronghold, several veterans immediately
Go up to us, rush forward 150 meters and establish a blocking position!"
"No matter how powerful the supporting troops are, they can't threaten the new recruits who are more than a hundred meters behind!"
"Didn't we capture a crooked gun just now? I led him to charge forward two hundred and fifty meters, and I hid a hundred meters in front of you and stood still!"
"After the Japanese and puppet troops entered your effective firing range, I launched an attack from the flank. I first used a crooked weapon to surprise the Japanese grenade group, and then changed my rifle to kill the Japanese machine gun group!"
"You shoot at the same time, kill two or three people, and the Japanese and puppet troops will be finished!"
"But before taking action, we must first cut off the telephone line from the Wushan Town stronghold to the county seat, conceal the news, and buy us time to evacuate Wushan Town!"
After Huang Yu finished speaking, a pocket array made of stones appeared in front of Zhong Chengjun.
Small stones representing the three veterans were placed in front of the responding force, and stones representing Huang Yu were placed on the flanks. The two sides fired crossfire, which could indeed severely damage the responding force in a short period of time.
But Zhong Chengjun was still worried and reminded: "The plan is fine, but you yourself are too dangerous!"
"One person hides on the flank to launch a sneak attack. He has to operate both a light machine gun and a 38-gun. The Japanese and puppet troops will definitely focus most of their firepower on you!"
"You are still young, and there is still a long way to go. I will attack the Japanese grenadiers and machine gunners on the flanks!"
"Old Zhong, you worry too much!" Huang Yu said with a confident smile.
"Only seven of the Japanese in the stronghold were dispatched."
"I will use my machine gun to kill two of them. If you kill two or three more, there will be no one left. How can they pose any danger to me?"
"This matter is settled!"
"The troops seize the time to clean up the battlefield, take the loot back to the woods and have a good rest. They will set off at four o'clock in the afternoon, start operations at five thirty, and seize the stronghold after dark..."
"If everything goes well, we will evacuate Wushan Town before dawn tomorrow and return to the base!"
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Second Lieutenant Nakajima, who was left behind to guard the stronghold, began to become unable to sit still.
Climbing to the top of the turret again, I stared at the mountain road Maeda left and looked forward to their return soon.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the sortie troops that Second Lieutenant Nakajima was expecting have not yet appeared!
At half past four, there was still no sign of the attacking troops at the end of the mountain road.
At five o'clock, Lieutenant Nakajima had already begun to jump anxiously, and several faint gunshots suddenly reached his ears.
"There are gunshots from the southeast of the stronghold. Everyone should enter the position and strengthen their alert!" Second Lieutenant Nakajima quickly ordered, raised his binoculars and looked in the direction of the gunfire.
The location of the gunshot was too far away from the stronghold, so he couldn't see anything.
But he could still hear something from the sound of the exchange of fire. Captain Cao, who hurried over, judged on the spot: "Captain, the gunshots coming from the battlefield are not dense. The number of people participating in the battle should not exceed forty people. They are about three kilometers away from the stronghold.
, mainly shooting rifles, only one crooked handle!"
"Yamada-kun must have found the enemy who attacked Nagakawa-kun, and the two sides fought together!"
"I want to take the machine gun team and the grenade team to meet them. I beg the captain for permission!"
Second Lieutenant Nakajima did not answer the call and quickly analyzed in his mind the pros and cons of sending a response force now.
Finally, under the longing gaze of Chief Cao, he objected: "We cannot yet determine the true situation on the battlefield!"
"The judgment just now was based on the sound of gunshots."
"Hearing is false, seeing is believing. What if the gunfire we heard was an illusion created by the enemy to lure us away from our stronghold?"
"Within the stronghold, you and I are left with only seven imperial armies and nine imperial alliance armies!"
"If we lose half our soldiers again, we won't be able to continue defending!"
"Wait a minute, the gunfire seems to be getting closer and closer to the stronghold!"
"It's not too late to attack when we can see the battlefield!"
