Chapter seven hundred and twenty second dangerous attack
Zhong Chenggong was only a deputy battalion commander before, and he could not think that far ahead in terms of vision or thinking.
However, he was very good at learning. As soon as Wang Ping finished speaking, he found a map and spread it on the table in front of the two of them.
After looking at it for two minutes, he confirmed: "Captain, this Tongpu Railway is really a fat and oily railway. All the supplies of the Japanese army of 50,000 to 60,000 troops on the front line are sent through this railway. Every day, there are several fully loaded trains with various kinds of vehicles."
The trains that grow supplies and food take the Tongpu Railway to the front line!"
"If we could really control the Tongpu Railway, we could collect 10 million kilograms of grain by just intercepting a few grain-laden trains!"
A smile appeared directly on Wang Ping's face: "There is not only food on the Tongpu Railway, but also a large amount of weapons, ammunition and other materials. As long as we can control the Tongpu Railway, then our new regiment will not need the equipment and ammunition.
I’m worried.”
"It's true!" Zhong Chenggong's eyes slowly shot out two rays of light.
Staring at the map, the more I looked at it, the happier I became. I wanted to take people to rob a Japanese train transporting supplies and equipment.
"That's not right!" Suddenly, the smile on Zhong Chenggong's face disappeared, and these two words appeared, his brows furrowed.
"Captain, the Tongpu Railway is more than 20 miles away from the two towns we control, and there are a lot of Japs in between. In addition, the Japs have also built a large number of strongholds and gun towers along the railway. Even if there are military columns coming, the military columns will
There are Japanese armored trains in front and behind to protect them, so how can we rob them? And even if we rob them, we don't have enough manpower to transport the captured items back."
"Then make this area our base!" Wang Ping said, pointing to a large blank area on the map.
At this time, Zhong Chenggong suddenly thought of the Second Battalion operating in the north of Linfen.
The large area pointed by Wang Ping is right between the main force and the north of Linfen where the second battalion is active.
If the second battalion is fully staffed during the operation and can send troops to cooperate, then with the current strength of the new regiment, it will definitely be able to capture this area and then extend the base area all the way to the mountains and hills north of Linfen.
After a pair of eyes quickly shot out two rays of light, Zhong Chenggong affirmed: "This method is feasible, but it is best to have the Second Battalion to cooperate. Do you want me to send a telegram to the Second Battalion immediately, asking them to seize the time to train and expand the troops!
"
"Okay!" Wang Ping replied without much hesitation.
Regardless of whether the Second Battalion will participate in this battle in the future, expanding the troops and improving combat effectiveness will be good for both the Second Battalion and the entire New Regiment.
Zhongshanling Village in the north of Linfen was the first village that the Second Battalion actually occupied after entering the north of Linfen.
"Instructor, we still have enough food in hand!" After receiving the telegram from Zhong Chenggong, Xiao Yunshan directly turned his attention to Wu Yanrong.
"There are still more than 2,000 jins. Originally, there were still more than 2,000 jins. Several families in the village had run out of food and couldn't open the pot. I took the initiative and took out a thousand jins of grain to help them, and then there were only more than 2,000 jins left!
"Wu Yanrong replied.
"Enough?" Xiao Yunshan affirmed: "The regiment headquarters ordered us to expand our troops as soon as possible. After the autumn harvest is over, there will be a big battle waiting for us. My idea is to leave the wounded behind and send out all the main forces to fight more outside.
Win the battle, establish a base, and then recruit troops!"
Li Wen suddenly said: "Battle Commander Xiao, your idea is very sound, but the time given to us by the regiment headquarters is too short. There is only less than a month until the end of the autumn harvest. If we build a base first and then recruit new soldiers, then
It will definitely be too late to train again and achieve combat effectiveness at the end!"
Xiao Yunshan's brows immediately furrowed into a big "Sichuan" sign.
After hesitating for a long time, he stared at Li Wen and asked, "What do you think, Captain Li?"
"The troops are ready. It depends on Battalion Commander Xiao whether you have the courage to grab them?" Li Wen asked with a smile on his face and an exciting tone.
"Puppet troops controlled by the Japanese!" Xiao Yunshan reacted immediately.
Li Wen shook his head and replied: "Not only the puppet troops, but also many prisoners of the Jinsui Army, Northwest Army, and even the Central Army captured by the Japs from the frontal battlefield!"
"Those people are all veterans who have seen blood and fought in wars. Add them to the army, equip them with better weapons, and they will be able to go to the battlefield immediately, even without training!"
"Fuck it, definitely do it, this is the fat meat in your mouth, if you don't eat it, you won't eat it for free!" Xiao Yunshan replied with eyes shining.
Li Wen smiled and did not answer immediately. Instead, he frowned and asked, "Commander Xiao, please don't agree too early. Listen to what I have to say. Otherwise, you will definitely regret it when you go to the battlefield!"
"Our special forces team found a prisoner camp with the Japanese. There are more than 700 prisoners, who are specially building strongholds and gun towers for the Japanese!"
"The Japs also know that we are coveting the prisoners in their hands. Therefore, a squadron of Japs of infantry and a company of Imperial Army soldiers were specially assigned to guard them. Therefore, if we want to rescue these prisoners from the Japs, we must
We must kill these Japanese and puppet troops!"
"Do it!" Xiao Yunshan gritted his teeth and decided.
"If your direct team were not here, I would definitely not have the guts to use dozens of people to fight against the puppet army for two to three hundred days. But now that you are here, especially your Captain Li, I am confident!"
Mountainous areas and hills will definitely be the key activity areas of the Eighth Route Army in the future. In order to control the mountainous areas, the Eighth Route Army's activity space and mobility in the mountainous and hilly areas should be reduced as much as possible. The Japanese directly decided to build strongholds and artillery towers in all important villages in northern Linfen.
With the stronghold and turret as the center, radiate and control the surrounding small villages, and then control the entire mountainous hills step by step.
After a day of hard work, not only were the captive soldiers with yellow faces and skinny faces exhausted and lying on the ground without wanting to get up, the Japanese and puppet troops responsible for guarding them were also exhausted.
However, the Japanese squadron leader who led the team knew that he was holding a piece of fat that made the Eighth Route Army jealous, and he might get burned at any time because of this piece of fat.
Therefore, every night, he arranged for an infantry squad and a platoon of puppet troops to conduct twenty-four patrols and did not dare to relax at all.
On a hilly plateau two miles away, Xiao Yunshan and Li Wen both held telescopes and stared motionlessly at the half-built Japanese stronghold.
"Captain Li, the Japanese and puppet troops are too heavily guarded, making a sneak attack almost impossible!" Xiao Yunshan frowned and judged.
Li Wen directly denied: "Ordinary troops may not be able to do it, but Battalion Commander Xiao, don't forget that our directly affiliated troops are not ordinary troops."
"My idea is to sneak attack first and then attack by force!"
"Battlemaster Xiao, please pick out twenty elites and follow our direct team to open a passage quietly. Then we will rush into the stronghold and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the remaining Japanese!"
"Fight with a bayonet!" Xiao Yunshan frowned again.
Li Wen shook his head and explained: "Bayonets are definitely no match for the Japs. I said that in close combat, we should use pistols and guns to kill them in close combat."
"Last time we attacked the Japanese special forces, we captured a lot of submachine guns. They are good at close combat and can definitely kill the Japanese at the minimum cost in close combat!"
