Li Changshui said worriedly: "This is too passive. We must know exactly where the Japanese epidemic prevention and water supply troops are going. Where will they go next?"
Xu Dalong said: "The Japanese army is not familiar with the people in our base area. They dare not enter rashly and may try. But as long as the base area is tightly sealed and the Japanese army has no chance to take advantage of it, they should go to the front line of Licheng to follow them."
The main forces converge."
Li Changshui was still very worried. He said: "The matter is so important that we cannot rely on guesswork. Do you think there are any other ways?"
Xu Dalong said: "We can force the Japanese army to seek shelter from the main force. Now, although the special operations brigade and the cavalry brigade cannot openly set up checkpoints on the highway, they can form small groups to check passing vehicles on the highway at any time.
The Japanese army cannot grasp the whereabouts of our cavalry, and it is difficult to pose a threat to them. With such actions, the Japanese epidemic prevention and water supply troops are worried about being detected, and they can only seek shelter from other Japanese troops."
Li Changshui nodded and said: "This is a solution. Then inform Deputy Captain Sun and others immediately."
After Sun Desheng and Wei Monk received the telegram from Xu Dalong, they immediately made arrangements. They sent a large number of personnel to form a small team. Whenever they saw a suspicious target, they would suddenly appear on the road to conduct an inspection. After the inspection, they would return
Evacuate quickly.
At this time, Oshima CITIC and the Super High School Section Chief had already escorted the epidemic prevention and water supply troops into Yushan County. They were also very careful and sent a truck about one kilometer in front of the convoy to explore the road. Once they found that the Eighth Route Army was intercepting
, they escorted the epidemic prevention and water supply troops to move in other directions.
Just as the convoy approached Yushan County, Oshima Zhongxin saw a group of Japanese cavalry appearing around the truck in front. They stopped the truck in front for inspection.
Oshima Zhongxin originally thought that the Eighth Route Army no longer dared to set up checkpoints, but he did not expect that they would adopt such guerrilla tactics to conduct interceptions and inspections. This method was really difficult to guard against. God knows when a group of Eighth Route Army cavalry would suddenly appear.
He quickly ordered the car to stop, then turned the car around and returned to the town they had just passed through.
The vehicle was intercepted by the Fourth Squadron of the Cavalry Brigade. When they intercepted the truck on the highway, they did not forget to look around and found that a truck turned around on the road, which was very suspicious.
They immediately sent some people to follow up and also sent people to report to their superiors.
Xu Dalong and others were driving on the highway when they received a telegram from Sun Desheng and Wei Monk, saying that there was a high possibility that the Japanese anti-epidemic and water supply troops had appeared in Yushan County. They immediately rushed in the direction of Yushan County
past.
Oshima Zhongxin and the Super High School Section Chief discovered the Eighth Route Army cavalry following them and knew that their whereabouts had been exposed.
They tried their best to conceal the truth, but they did not expect to be discovered by the enemy in this way. They were worried that they would soon attract a large force of the Eighth Route Army. They did not care about their face, and hurriedly sent a telegram to the chief of staff, requesting to send a large force.
A large number of Japanese troops came to escort.
Nowadays, the fighting on the front line is tense, and the Japanese army is almost running out of ammunition and food. The only guarantee for this battle at present is this epidemic prevention and water supply force.
The chief of staff was well aware of the seriousness of the problem and hurriedly issued a death order to the Japanese and puppet troops near Yushan County, asking them to rush to Yushan County immediately to escort the epidemic prevention and water supply troops. The surrounding Japanese and puppet troops rushed to Yushan County frantically.
At this time, there were too few Eighth Route Army troops operating in this area and could only intercept a small number of Japanese and puppet troops.
Soon, thousands of Japanese and puppet troops gathered around the Japanese epidemic prevention and water supply troops. By midnight that day, more than 2,000 Japanese and puppet troops had arrived. By 10 a.m. the next day, the 31st Japanese garrison division
The regiment dispatched an infantry regiment and rushed here. The regiment leader Toyotomi Hideyoshi was appointed as the temporary commander-in-chief, commanding the Japanese and puppet troops in Yushan County to protect the epidemic prevention and water supply troops.
Not only that, the 11th Independent Mixed Brigade also sent two infantry brigades to meet the epidemic prevention and water supply troops along the way.
Sun Desheng and Wei Monk sent telegrams to various squadrons of the cavalry brigade and special operations brigade scattered in various places, asking them to gather in Yushan County. The two of them also led the troops left behind and rushed over.
Xu Dalong and Li Changshui were very happy. No matter what, they finally found the exact location of the Japanese epidemic prevention and water supply unit. Their hearts were half relieved. They also speeded up and hurried over.
Li Changshui said with emotion: "Thanks to the cavalry brigade and special operations brigade operating in this area, the little devils had to show their true colors."
Xu Dalong smiled and said: "This is called in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy and trick is just a decoration."
After Colonel Toyotomi Hideyoshi met with Chuxin Oshima and the Superintendent of the High School Division, the three of them discussed the next action together.
He said: "Your Excellency, Section Chief, Oshima-kun, I have received an order from the First Army Headquarters to fully cooperate with your department's actions. What are your plans next?"
Before Toyotomi Hideyoshi arrived, Oshima CITIC and the Super High School Division Chief had already discussed it. After this stage of fighting, they also deeply felt the power of the Eighth Route Army, and now they no longer have the guts to carry out other operations.
Planned, the only wish is to escort the epidemic prevention and water supply troops to the front line and join the main force. In this way, half of their mission is completed. As for how to carry out the attack, we will wait until they reach the Licheng front line.
The head of the Section of Science and Technology told Toyotomi Hideyoshi of their discussion.
The 31st Garrison Division, where Toyotomi Hideyoshi belongs, is responsible for local security. During this period, it has suffered a lot from the attacks of the Eighth Route Army Cavalry Brigade and the Special Forces Brigade. He is very worried about the Super High School Chief and others who ask him to carry out other tasks.
As for the mission, he was relieved when he heard that it was just to escort them to the front line of Licheng to rendezvous with the main force.
The total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops gathered here now exceeds 6,000. Despite this, Toyotomi Hideyoshi is still a little worried. He asked Huang Xiejun's 2nd Division to send two regiments over and accept his command.
He decided to wait for the troops from these two regiments to arrive before escorting the epidemic prevention and water supply troops to the front line of Licheng.
The commander of the First Brigade of Huang Xiejun's Second Division led two regiments out of Jiyuan County and headed for Yushan County. As soon as they entered Yushan County, they were attacked by the Eighth Route Army cavalry.
Although there were only three squadrons of Eighth Route Army cavalry who arrived here, they dealt a heavy blow to Huang Xie's army. They didn't know how many Eighth Route Army cavalry were around, and they were worried that the entire army would be destroyed. They were unwilling to fight, leaving hundreds of corpses behind and taking them with them.
The troops retreated to Jiyuan County in panic.
While Sun Desheng and Wei Monk were gathering troops, they ordered the troops to intercept Japanese and puppet troops on the spot if they encountered them on their way to Yushan County. They would annihilate small groups of Japanese puppet troops if they encountered them, and harass large groups if they encountered them.
.
After receiving the report, Toyotomi Hideyoshi said worriedly: "This is already the fifth incident of being attacked by enemy forces. The small units of our army around us no longer dare to come for reinforcements. I am afraid that the main force of the Eighth Route Army will soon
Gather together.
I think we can’t stay here any longer and we need to set off quickly.”
Oshima Zhongxin and the Super High School Section Chief also believed that there were already a lot of troops gathered here. They took advantage of the fact that the main force of the enemy army had not yet been assembled and rushed on their way. They did not stop and immediately headed for Yushan County.
Just as they were approaching Yushan County, they encountered a squadron of the Special Operations Brigade. The Japanese and puppet troops killed and injured nearly a hundred people. After entering Yushan County, they collected some vehicles and horses in the county. In addition to daily necessities, they also brought
After finding the Japanese and puppet troops in Yushan County, they set off overnight and continued on their way.
After the Japanese and puppet troops left the city, the squadron that had previously attacked their special operations brigade and the two squadrons of the cavalry brigade that had arrived launched an attack on the Japanese and puppet troops.
The Japanese and puppet troops did not dare to fight, so they rushed on their way while fighting. Soon after, two other cavalry squadrons came over and joined the attack on the Japanese and puppet troops.
The Japanese and puppet troops were in a very embarrassed state, losing troops and generals along the way. By the time they entered Huairou County, they had lost more than 1,000 people.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi really didn't dare to move forward anymore. He said: "Your Excellency, Section Chief, Oshima-kun, more and more enemy cavalry are arriving here now. Plus we have time to rest here, I'm afraid the enemy
The main force of the army's cavalry has already arrived. If the main force of the enemy's army gathers here, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach Licheng County at all, and we will all be eaten by the enemy on the way."
The super high school section chief was also frightened. He said: "Oshima-kun, I think Toyotomi-kun is right. Licheng is not too far away. I think we should just stick to Huairou County and wait for the Yellow Army's attack."
The main force will come over, and then we will go to Licheng together."
Oshima Zhongxin now has no idea. He is also very worried that the epidemic prevention and water supply troops will be surrounded and annihilated by the Eighth Route Army's cavalry troops in the wild.
He agreed with the opinions of the Super High School Section Chief and the Regiment Captain, and the three of them jointly sent a telegram to the Chief of Staff of the First Army, stating their experiences and opinions, hoping to stay in Huairou County and await reinforcements.
The chief of staff agreed to their request. He sent a telegram to the 11th independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army, asking them to go to Huairou County, join Oshima Zhongxin and others, and escort the epidemic prevention and water supply troops to the front line of Licheng.
On the outskirts of Huairou County, Xu Dalong, Li Changshui and others met with Sun Desheng and Monk Wei. In a cornfield, Xu Dalong, Li Changshui, Sun Desheng, Monk Wei and others sat on the ground to discuss the next action plan.
Sun Desheng said: "Captain, I have received a report that the Japanese independent mixed 11th Brigade has sent two infantry brigades and is on its way to Huairou County. Should we kill the Japs from these two brigades on the way?"
Xu Dalong did not express his opinion, but just said: "You guys, please share your opinions."
Monk Wei said: "I agree with Deputy Captain Sun's opinion. Let's first kill these Japs who come for reinforcements. These Japs hiding in Huairou County dare not come out, and their epidemic prevention and water supply troops will not be able to play their role.
The little devils on the front line have almost run out of ammunition and food, and can't hold on much longer. We will win this battle in Licheng."
Li Changshui said with some worry: "There is no way to continue like this. The most important thing is to kill the little devil's epidemic prevention and water supply troops."
For Li Qiulin, the people present here used to be his commanders, but now he has become a special operations captain directly under the military region headquarters. His rank has also risen, and he can express his opinions at such an important meeting.
He said: "I also agree with Deputy Captain Sun's opinion to trap the Japanese defense water supply troops in Huairou County. At least we know they are here.
If they are allowed to join the Japanese army, it will be difficult to deal with it. Let us first surround the Japanese in Huairou County, and then find a way to go to the county and kill those little Japanese who poisoned us."
Li Changshui said: "This is also a way. However, the Japs are very tightly guarded, so this matter may not be easy to handle. The bacteria and poisonous gases carried by the Japs' epidemic prevention and water supply troops cannot be exposed in the county. Even though they are enemies here,
We occupy the area, but the people there are also Chinese people, so we cannot let them suffer harm."
Li Qiulin said: "How about releasing the little devils and destroying them in the wild? Wouldn't it hurt the common people?"
Sun Desheng said: "If we don't kill the two brigades of little Japs who came for reinforcements and let them go into the city to join the Japs troops in the city, they will have too many troops.
The little Japanese clearly know that we are watching them, so they will be very vigilant. It would be difficult to ambush them. Even in the wild, with so many Japanese troops, it would be very difficult to eat them."
Li Qiulin said: "But if we kill these two brigades of Japs, the Japs will be huddled in the city and cannot come out, which will be difficult to deal with. If we go into the city to attack the Japs' epidemic prevention and water supply troops, the Japs will be anxious, and they will be here
There is poison in the city. What should we do?"
Li Changshui said: "We have to think of a way to not only allow the Japanese to come out, but also be sure to eliminate them in the wild."
Everyone expressed their opinions, and they all knew that these opinions were not perfect. In the end, everyone focused their attention on Xu Dalong, waiting for him to make the final decision.
Xu Dalong already had a countermeasure at this time. He said: "Let me ask you a question, under what circumstances will the little devil not easily carry out a biological and chemical weapon attack? Are you afraid that those bacteria and poisonous gas will be released, so you must strictly protect yourself?"
Li Changshui was thoughtful, and Sun Desheng immediately said: "The damn little devils have no humanity, they don't care about the life and death of the people, they can release poisonous gas at any time.
I think there is only one place, as the captain said, where the Japs will not only not release poison casually, but will also strictly protect it, and that is in a crowd of little Japs."
