These guerrillas fought with strong will in a harsh and harsh environment. They could not see the hope of victory in the war of resistance and were already prepared to sacrifice at any time.
After listening to Xu Dalong's introduction, the guerrillas saw the hope of victory and deeply felt that their persistence over the years was correct. The tragic emotions in their hearts turned into a desire for victory.
Xu Dalong, Guan Zhenshan and the guerrillas had never heard of it. When they listened to the introduction by the special forces members, they realized that this young man was so famous, and his achievements astonished the guerrillas.
They all respected Xu Dalong very much and called him "chief" one after another very affectionately.
Xu Dalong is not a person who likes to put on airs, but he can understand the mood of these guerrillas. They have been fighting alone for many years, just like a group of orphans who have lost their parents. Now they have found an organization that gives them a solid sense of dependence. Therefore, Xu Dalong
They just let them call him that. Besides, given Xu Dalong's status, this title is quite normal.
Xu Dalong respected these guerrillas very much, talked to them cordially, learned about the origins of each of them, and listened to them tell about their hard struggle under extremely harsh conditions over the years, and gave them some advice.
Full recognition and sincere respect. The relationship between everyone quickly became closer.
After a few days of rest and seeing that Guan Zhenshan and others' bodies had recovered, they began to study their next move.
According to the introduction of Guan Zhenshan and others, the enemy situation in this area is very serious. This area is the junction of Yidong County and Yancang County. There are a large number of Japanese and puppet troops stationed in the county. How many troops are there? Guan Zhenshan and others also
I can't tell clearly, but I'm sure there are many people there.
The biggest difficulty for Guan Zhenshan and the guerrillas was not the large number of enemy troops, but the fact that there were no homes around them. Except for some villages around the county, the people in other villages were concentrated by the Japanese and puppet troops.
We arrived at a few large villages.
Guan Zhenshan and others were unable to obtain supplies of food and soldiers. If they wanted to seize a grain of food, a gun and a bullet, they had to attack Datun or a market town where the Japanese and puppet troops were heavily fortified.
The Japanese and puppet troops did not need to search for guerrillas all over the mountains and plains. They only had to hide in comfortable rooms and wait for the guerrillas to come.
In this case, every bullet fired by the guerrillas means one less bullet, and the loss of one member means one less member, and the strength becomes weaker and weaker. The battle not long ago was actually the battle between Guanzhen and Guanzhen.
Shan and others had given up hope. They risked going down the mountain. If they could no longer obtain weapons, ammunition and food, they would basically be unable to survive.
Xu Dalong has previously studied the situation of group tribes organized by the Japanese and puppet troops outside the Pass. This move was very vicious. The anti-Japanese struggle that was originally vigorous outside the Pass soon fell into disarray because of this measure taken by the Japanese and puppet troops.
After reaching a trough, most of them were eventually lost. Those who stayed in place to persist in the struggle no longer had large-scale armed forces, only scattered guerrillas like Guan Zhenshan and others.
The only way to change this situation is to attack the group tribes controlled by the Japanese and puppet troops and liberate the people there.
Guan Zhenshan and the others have wanted to do this for a long time, but unfortunately the power in their hands is too weak. Every time they attack the group headquarters, not only do they fail to achieve actual results, but they continue to lose guerrillas. As of now, they no longer have the ability to attack the group headquarters.
Went to attack the group tribe.
Xu Dalong discussed with Guan Zhenshan and others and decided to attack the group tribes in Yidong County first.
In order to avoid interference during the battle, the Japanese and puppet strongholds between the group tribes must first be destroyed.
Lanhua Town is a small town with a population of only more than 300 households. It houses an infantry squad of the Japanese army, a company of the puppet Manchukuo army, and a puppet police station, with a total strength of about 200 people. This Japanese and puppet army stronghold is located in
In the middle area between the two major tribes, no matter which tribe they attack, they will be intercepted by the Japanese and puppet troops. Therefore, Xu Dalong and others decided to attack this stronghold first.
Xu Dalong and others originally planned to attack the Japanese and puppet troops at night, but considering that there were many dogs in the town, it was difficult for the guerrillas to approach the town quietly at night.
Since it was difficult to see the situation at night, it was more troublesome to fight, and it was easy to accidentally injure ordinary people in the town. Xu Dalong decided to attack during the day.
That night, Xu Dalong, Guan Zhenshan and others led the guerrillas quietly to the vicinity of the town. Several special forces members rode fast horses to serve as a guard around the town and cut off the telephone lines in the town.
It dawned early in the summer. By 6:30 in the morning, the visibility was already very high. The Japanese and puppet sentries in the town first heard the dogs barking, and then discovered that a group of guerrillas were coming outside. The Japanese and puppet sentries immediately fired the alarm.
, the Japanese and puppet troops in the town came to the town wall one after another and prepared for defense.
It was Guan Zhenshan and his guerrillas who appeared outside the town. When they arrived outside the town, they opened fire at the Japanese and puppet troops. There were many sharpshooters among them, and their hit rate was also very high. After a while,
Seven or eight Japanese and puppet troops were killed.
Shortly after the battle began, the Japanese commander in the town was very angry when he saw that there were only 20 people in Guan Zhenshan and he immediately organized his troops to rush out.
There were about 30 Japanese troops who rushed out of the town, and there were 70 or 80 puppet troops.
Seeing the large number of Japanese and puppet troops, Guan Zhenshan and others did not dare to fight, so they fought and retreated.
The Japanese and puppet troops had been searching for these guerrillas for a long time. When they saw them coming to seek death, of course they refused to let go of this opportunity and pursued them desperately.
Just as the Japanese and puppet troops were passing through a depression, they were suddenly ambushed by a special force. The main force of the special force all participated in the battle this time, with a number of nearly 200 people. Their firepower was fierce and their marksmanship was accurate, and they defeated the Japanese and puppet troops in an instant.
The people were on their backs. Before the Japanese and puppet troops could react, more than half of them were killed or injured.
Guan Zhenshan and others saw that the Japanese and puppet troops were ambushed, and immediately turned back to join the attack on the Japanese and puppet troops.
At the beginning, the Japanese and puppet troops still wanted to put up a stubborn resistance, but under the care of the precise marksmanship of the special operations team, their officers and machine gunners were killed one after another, and they could not organize effective resistance at all. The remaining Japanese and puppet troops had no intention of fighting.
They retreated toward the town. The guerrillas took the opportunity to pursue them.
The Japanese and puppet troops were fleeing, and several special forces cavalry blocked their way. The battle lasted for another seven or eight minutes, and finally all the Japanese and puppet troops who came out of the town were annihilated.
Then the guerrillas came to Lanhua Town again and surrounded the town.
The Japanese and puppet troops in the town had called the Japanese and puppet troops in the county for help, but unfortunately the call could not be reached. They sent people to ride out of the town to report the news, but they were blocked by a guard post set up by the guerrillas.
After completing the siege of the town, Xu Dalong commanded the special forces to launch an attack.
Before launching the attack, Xu Dalong had already told Guan Zhenshan and the guerrillas in advance, telling them not to participate in the attack and leaving the battle to the special forces.
On the one hand, Xu Dalong did it out of love for these guerrillas. After all, their number was too small. These were the seeds left by the guerrillas outside the customs and must be carefully cared for. Another reason was that Xu Dalong and the others were worried about Guan Zhenshan and others.
Although they are not good at attacking tough situations, I hope they can learn from the special forces.
The battle started soon, and Guan Zhenshan and others saw that the special operations team members were very organized. Each of them did not act alone, but all formed a combat team of three or five people. At the beginning, they
Instead of launching an immediate charge, they used firepower to suppress the Japanese and puppet troops in the town. The special operations team members usually formed one or two combat teams to block a firepower point of the Japanese and puppet troops. The snipers even used firepower to suppress the exposed Japanese and puppet troops.
The army killed them one by one.
The main force of the Japanese and puppet troops in the town had already come out. There were not many people left, and the number of firepower points was also very limited. Under the attack of the special forces team members, the firepower was fully suppressed.
Next, several special operations teams quickly approached the town with skillful tactical movements, then used rocket launchers to destroy the two fixed firepower points in the town, and then threw grenades at the Japanese and puppet troops lying behind the wall.
, the remaining Japanese and puppet troops could not resist and ran towards the east end of the town, where there was a three-story gun tower.
The special operations team members rushed into the town, used houses and walls as bunkers, and used machine guns and sniper rifles to block the shooting holes in the turrets. The Japanese and puppet troops in the turrets did not dare to approach the shooting holes at all, and the firepower suddenly fell silent.
.
The guerrillas took the opportunity to approach the gun tower and then threw grenades into the firing holes.
In fact, they could use 82mm recoilless rifles and rocket launchers to attack the gun towers. They considered that Guan Zhenshan's team did not have such weapons. Even if the special forces team left some for them before leaving, they would not be able to obtain replenishment of ammunition.
, so they still had to rely on themselves to use ordinary weapons to solve the battle, so they conducted a tactical demonstration.
The entire offensive battle took less than half an hour to completely annihilate the Japanese and puppet troops relying on fortifications for defense, and only one of the special operations team members was slightly injured.
Guan Zhenshan and others were all veterans who had experienced hundreds of battles, and their combat effectiveness was extremely strong. However, when they saw the battles carried out by the special operations team members, they still felt a huge gap and admired the special operations team members to the ground.
After the town was captured, Xu Dalong left it to Guan Zhenshan and the others as to how to handle the rest.
Guan Zhenshan and others were very experienced. They opened the Japanese and puppet granaries, gathered the people in the town, distributed food to them, and then carried out anti-Japanese propaganda.
The Songshan guerrillas originally had a strong influence in this area and were very popular among the people. They had not shown up for a long time, and the people thought that the Songshan guerrillas had been eaten by the Japanese and puppet troops.
Now that they saw Guan Zhenshan and others, they were all very happy, and more than 20 people signed up to join the guerrillas on the spot.
Seeing this scene, Xu Dalong, Wei Monk and others all nodded secretly and saw the hope that the Songshan guerrillas would regain their glory.
Soon after, Xu Dalong, Guan Zhenshan and others evacuated the town with the seized weapons, ammunition and a large amount of living supplies. However, they did not go far and came to a forest.
After the people in the town could no longer see the situation here, they quietly stopped. Soon after, the intercom rang, and the scout who stayed outside the town reported that there were Japanese and puppet personnel in the town heading to the county seat.
Reported.
Xu Dalong asked Guan Zhenshan to send a few guerrillas to take the new recruits to transport supplies back to the foothold on the mountain. He took the others and bypassed the town, heading towards Yidong County.
Just as Xu Dalong expected, the Japanese and puppet troops in Yidong County heard that something happened in Lanhua Town, so they sent an infantry squadron and a company of puppet troops to search Lanhua Town.
On a small river embankment, Xu Dalong and Wei Monk set up an ambush with their special forces. The Japanese and puppet troops coming out of the city thought that the guerrillas who occupied the town had already evacuated. They planned to go to the town to understand the situation.
Then they went into the mountains to search and suppress. They never thought that the guerrillas would dare to come to the county town to set up an ambush. Therefore, when they crossed the river, they were violently attacked by the special forces team members.
The special forces had strong firepower and caught the Japanese and puppet troops by surprise, losing half of their troops on the spot. Strictly speaking, the Japanese Kwantung Army still had a strong will to fight. Even the puppet Manchukuo army was stronger than the puppet troops in the Kwantung area.
The combat effectiveness is stronger.
They encountered a sudden attack and began to organize resistance after a brief panic.
At this moment, fierce gunfire suddenly rang out from behind them, and a squad of special forces and Guan Tieshan's guerrillas launched an attack from behind.
The Japanese and puppet troops could no longer bear it and soon collapsed. They fled in all directions, but they could not escape the bullets of the guerrillas and special forces. The battle ended soon after, with more than 150 Japanese and 110 puppets annihilated.
Manchu soldiers, including more than 50 prisoners.
Guan Zhenshan and others were very excited after winning several big victories in a row. There were too many weapons and ammunition seized now. The team members all selected the latest and best rifles, and each of them carried two hundred rounds of bullets.
, they will no longer have to worry about lack of ammunition during war.
In order not to give the Japanese and puppet troops time to react, Xu Dalong decided to fight continuously to attack the group tribes.
In order to avoid leaking the news, the captured prisoners were not released immediately. Instead, they were asked to carry their unbolted rifles, load ammunition boxes, and follow the guerrillas.
There are a total of five group tribes in Yidong County. Xu Dalong and others attacked the one closest to Songshan. (End of this chapter)
