...The relationship between Li Wenjie and Ninth Company Commander Zhu Wu has eased, but it does not mean that he has completely integrated with the soldiers of Ninth Company.
In this regard, Ninth Company Commander Zhu Wu told Li Wenjie, "In the past, Ninth Company was not fully organized, with only more than fifty people. It was said to be a company, but in fact it was just a platoon. At that time, our Ninth Company was united, but it is different now.
A lot of new soldiers were added, and the regiment leader also brought back a lot of surrendered national troops."
"For the new recruits, it's okay to say that their mastery of military skills is a little poor, and the training is just fine. But these national soldiers who have surrendered don't know who they learned from, and their noses are almost to the sky. Although
They didn't say it, but I know that in their hearts they always feel that our Eighth Route Army is inferior to their national army!"
Li Wenjie said: "When I came to the Ninth Company, the head of the regiment also told me that the Ninth Company is now mixed in composition. Lao Zhu, whether they are recruits or comrades from the national army who have surrendered, they now have only one identity, and that is us
Soldiers of the Ninth Company."
"According to my observation during this period, I also found a problem. Our Ninth Company only has about a hundred people, but the team is divided into three groups. One group is the old comrades of the Ninth Company, and the other group is the new recruits.
One group is the national army who surrendered. A small company is divided into three small groups. How can we get our hearts together like this?"
Zhu Wu is a rough man, and he has a headache when he hears this.
"I can't control what they think, as long as they are willing to obey orders on the battlefield."
“But I also have to straighten my thinking.”
"Then it's up to you, instructor Li." Zhu Wu smiled and quickly threw the hot potato away, "Oh, by the way, Wenjie, how about you use my method of leading troops? If it doesn't work, just scold him.
They can just give them a meal, or go up and kick them twice. This method works well, no matter if they are new soldiers or national soldiers, Turin!"
This is true. During training, Li Wenjie discovered that although Zhu Wu cursed and liked to kick people's butts, not to mention, even the national troops who surrendered also did this.
Therefore, if the entire Ninth Company does not consider the ideological issues of the soldiers in depth, it seems that there is no similarity or difference with other companies.
Li Wenjie smiled and shook his head. Zhu Wu was a military commander and a company commander, and the soldiers all knew his forthright and forthright character. This method might work.
But Li Wenjie is an instructor, so naturally he can't do this.
At seven o'clock the next morning.
At an impromptu military meeting convened by the Ninth Company, Zhu Wu said, "Since 1939, the Japs have begun to implement a law and order plan in North China. Railways and roads of all sizes are covered with gun towers and strongholds of the Japs, just like
It’s covered in dog-skin plaster, and it’s disgusting to look at.”
"The little devil wants to reduce the living space of our base step by step, and finally starve us to death on this mountain."
"But we are living beings, how can we be suffocated to death by just soaking in urine?"
"Yesterday I received news that the Japs were building a stronghold in the middle section of Xiaotong Road in the guerrilla zone that our Ninth Company is responsible for!"
"This little road is an important transportation line in our Ninth Company guerrilla area. Our independent regiment often collects public grain from nearby villages from here."
"The little devil is building a stronghold here to drive a nail into the heart of our Ninth Company. Tell me, can we just watch it?"
"No, you stupid little devil is just dreaming. Are you really treating our Ninth Company as a display? Company commander, let's fight!" The platoon leader spoke first.
The other two platoon leaders also nodded in agreement.
Zhu Wudao: "We will definitely fight. I have asked for permission from the battalion commander. You know the temper of the regiment commander. This happened in the guerrilla zone of our ninth company. The number of Japs is not too large. Naturally,
We, the Nine Company, have to solve the problem ourselves."
"The battalion commander said, and the regiment commander just said, we can request combat operations. If the battle is fought well, there will be rewards, but if the battle is not fought well, there will be penalties."
"Company commander, as long as the regiment commander and battalion commander agree, we will definitely fight this battle well, aren't we just a few little devils!"
Zhu Wu nodded heavily, "Then it's agreed, we have to fight this battle, and we have to win it, and we have to take away the Japanese stronghold!"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Wu looked at the instructor Li Wenjie and asked: "Wenjie, do you have anything to add?"
The three platoon commanders were stunned, and they were a little confused. When did the relationship between the company commander and the instructor ease?
But it’s a good thing anyway, so I didn’t think too much about it.
Li Wenjie asked: "Lao Zhu, I have no objection to the war and will fully support it. The Japanese are taking the initiative to attack, so naturally we cannot just sit back and wait for death."
"It's just about the intelligence about Xiao Tonglu's Japanese stronghold. Have we collected enough information? How many Japs are there? How many puppet troops are there? What is the firepower configuration? What is the speed of support for reinforcements? Did everyone communicate in advance about the combat deployment before the battle?
Okay? How is the terrain in the middle section of Xiaotong Road? How to use the terrain to effectively launch an attack?"
Following a series of questions, the platoon leaders and squad leaders who came to the meeting stopped talking.
Zhu Wu coughed twice and glanced at the platoon leader.
The platoon leader said: "Instructor, the situation is urgent. We don't have time to investigate the detailed information. The rough information shows that there is one squad of Japanese soldiers, plus two squads of puppet troops, totaling about one platoon of troops. In terms of firepower allocation,
Our scouts can confirm that there are three light machine guns set up in the east and west directions of the fortifications outside the stronghold."
"So what about inside the stronghold? Is there more firepower hidden?"
"That's not clear." A long queue said.
"Where are the reinforcements? Have the reinforcements been investigated?"
"The closest to Xiaotong Road is another medium-sized stronghold of the Japanese army. At the speed of the Japanese army's walking support, it will take at least half an hour to get there."
Li Wenjie said: "What if the Japanese troops in the stronghold use transport trucks to support them? The Japanese relied on railways and roads to build strongholds, taking advantage of the mobility advantages of roads and railways. If one place is attacked, reinforcements can arrive quickly." p>

"If you take into account the speed of the Japs' mechanized troops, is this medium-sized stronghold still the only reinforcement along the way?"
"This..." The platoon leader was speechless.
"So, we are not even fully prepared for the intelligence work on the target we are going to attack. Isn't this battle too reckless?"
Several platoon commanders stopped talking and could only focus their wry smiles on the company commander Zhu Wu.
Zhu Wu explained: "Wenjie, I understand your concerns, but we also have our own considerations. The devils have put nails right under our noses in this war, and it is definitely inevitable."
"In addition, we did not have enough time to investigate the intelligence and found that the Japanese were building a stronghold in the middle of Xiaotong Road. This is the latest information passed on. The buildings in the Japanese stronghold have not been repaired yet!"
"This is the best opportunity for us to launch a sudden attack. Once the Japanese and puppet troops have completely built their stronghold, they will have more stable defenses. It will be much more difficult for us to forcibly remove the stronghold by then!
”
"In addition, don't worry about the reinforcements. If you can reach the mountain road of Xiaotong Road, I will arrange for the soldiers to lay mines in advance and prepare the reinforcement team to buy enough time for us to attack the stronghold."
"It's just a squad of Japs. The combat effectiveness of the puppet army is far behind. Our Ninth Company has the appetite!"
"Preliminary estimates indicate that if the attack goes well, we will be able to completely resolve the battle in less than ten minutes, and then leave another five minutes to clean up the battlefield. By the time the Japanese reinforcements arrive, we will have already blown up the Japanese stronghold!
”
"So what are the specific combat deployments and arrangements?" Li Wenjie asked.
Zhu Wudao: "I'm still confused about the specific situation. As for the battle plan, let's talk about it when we get there!"
"Okay!" Li Wenjie nodded.
The cadres of the Ninth Company all breathed a sigh of relief...
