With more people and greater strength, hundreds of puppet prisoners took action together, and it took only one day for the Independent Company's station in Hongquan Village to be restored to its original state.
As soon as Li Hao walked into the headquarters, a correspondent rushed over: "Company Commander, we have captured the Yantou Village stronghold!"
"The three mountain guns of the artillery platoon fired six shots in a row, directly blowing a gun tower and three bunkers in the stronghold into rubble. Most of the Japanese were buried in the ruins before they could react. All other Japanese were also killed, and none of them escaped.
, most of the puppet troops were captured!"
"The guard platoon, fire platoon and artillery platoon are on their way back with the capture!"
Hong Linfeng was the first to hold back and shouted with excitement: "Company Commander, mountain artillery is indeed a weapon for siege. With these three mountain cannons, the little devil's turrets and telegraphs are like paper in front of us.
Hit, it’s so exciting!”
"By taking down Yantou Village, we can break out of our base, rush into the area occupied by the little Japs, and run into the little Japs' stomachs to cause havoc in heaven!"
Li Hao immediately ordered: "One platoon, four platoons, attack immediately, fight village by village, kill the traitor armed forces raised by the little devils, and then recruit troops to fight against the Japanese!"
"The reconnaissance platoon also set off and went directly to the county town. Keep an eye on every move of the Japanese and puppet troops in the county town. Report any situation immediately!"
As soon as the correspondent left, Hong Linfeng continued to ask: "What about the second platoon?"
"There are also baggage platoons, recruit platoons, and cavalry platoons!"
"Basically the entire army was wiped out in the first battle of Hongquan Village, and not even a single cadre was left. I suggest that we first set up these platoons, then replenish the troops, and start training as soon as possible to form combat effectiveness, especially the second platoon!
"
"There are not many combat troops in an independent company. The role of a main platoon on the battlefield is very important. We cannot let it remain empty!"
Li Hao had already thought about it and replied with a serious face: "The secret camp garrison platoon performed very well this time, especially their platoon leader. He held off the little devils by showing weakness, waited for the main force to fight back, and finally killed them by attacking from both sides.
This move is very powerful and makes me admire him with admiration!"
"My opinion is to let Zhang Yuan be the commander of the second platoon, and take two squads and a machine gun team from the defense platoon to reorganize the second platoon!"
"The remaining infantry squad has been expanded into a garrison platoon!"
"As for the other platoons, it is definitely unrealistic to transfer troops from combat units!"
"All the troops suffered heavy casualties in this battle. Every remaining veteran and cadre is their backbone and backbone. Each one is precious and must not be transferred casually!"
"You contact the health team in the secret camp immediately. Many seriously injured people must have recovered during this period. Make a list of the veterans who have recovered and those who are about to recover. By the way, what positions they held before they were seriously injured and what their positions were during the Red Army.
List them all!”
"The cadres of several platoons are generated from these people. It does not affect the combat effectiveness of several main platoons, but can also set up the frame of the recruit platoon, cavalry platoon, and baggage platoon to directly replenish recruits!"
Hong Linfeng immediately replied: "No problem, I will make arrangements now!"
Before Hong Linfeng left the headquarters, Zhou Liang, deputy commander of the communications platoon, rushed in and shouted from a distance.
"Company Commander, urgent call from the military division!"
Hong Linfeng, who walked to the door, immediately stepped back and asked: "Company commander, what's the matter?"
Li Hao quickly read the telegram handed over by Zhou Liang, and then frowned.
"Two things, one is a war report, and the other is an order!"
"Last night, the military division assembled the first and second brigades for a big battle: the original purpose was to ambush a Japanese and puppet army, but the blocking force failed to block the Japanese reinforcements, and the ambush ended hastily!"
"Did the military division lose the battle?" Hong Linfeng's heart suddenly rose to his throat, his brows furrowed, and he asked worriedly
Li Hao shook his head and replied: "It's not a defeat!"
"Because the troops withdrew from the battle in time, the loss of the military division was only one battalion! But they still killed more than 900 puppet troops. In terms of casualty ratio, it can definitely be called a great victory. The only regret is that it was not completed.
The scheduled combat goal is to completely annihilate this Japanese and puppet army!"
Hong Linfeng took a long breath and replied: "That's good. As long as the troops win the battle, the final victory in this anti-mopping up campaign will belong to us sooner or later!"
"The final victory must belong to us!" Li Hao affirmed without hesitation.
Then he continued to introduce: "The combat goal has not been completed. The military division wanted to use an ambush to severely damage the Japs and sweep away the troops. The goal of forcing them to retreat was not achieved. The Japs not only did not retreat, but instead intensified their attacks on the base areas, swept the base areas, and retaliated against the troops.
Partition!”
"What the commander means is to look for fighter planes again, find a way to hit them again, and severely damage them!"
"But this will take time. The military division requires us to hold back the Japanese and puppet troops passing through Lingqiu. If possible, we will delay them for five more days!"
Hong Linfeng replied confidently: "Company Commander, there will definitely be no problem in completing the mission!"
"The Watanabe Brigade is now trapped in Lingqiu County. It needs supplies but no supplies, and it needs troops but no soldiers. It can't even get out of the county seat, let alone attack the military subdivision!"
"Not to mention five days, we can delay it even if it takes ten days!"
Instead, Li Hao calmed down, shook his head and replied: "Don't be careless!"
"Without the battle of the military division, there is at least a 70% chance that the Watanabe Brigade would stay in Lingqiu."
"If today's puppet army loses nearly a thousand troops in the military division, the result will be different. It is very likely that something unexpected will happen!"
"The Japanese army cannot just watch the two mopping up troops that have reached the base area suffer heavy losses again. They will probably reinforce the Watanabe Brigade at all costs and require the Watanabe Brigade to enter the base area!"
"In this way, they will have three lines of mopping up troops in the base area, cooperating and supporting each other, both in terms of security and the chance of winning the entire mopping up will be greatly increased!"
"This is what I'm most worried about right now!"
"Squad leader Zhou, please send a telegram back to the military division immediately. The independent company will ensure that the mission is completed!"
"Also, how did the last time I asked you to train telegraph operators go? We were very lucky when we raided the Watanabe Brigade at night. We seized another radio station, and there were two of them. Although they were both low-power, they were powerful in spirit.
There is still no problem in using it within Qiu territory!”
"I am in urgent need of operators who can send and receive telegraphs to use these two radios to facilitate the communication between the troops!"
Zhou Liang hesitated and replied: "Company Commander, I have selected four young people to train them, and two soldiers are particularly talented. Give me another three days, and I will conduct a training camp for them!"
"In three days, I will give them to you!"
"Although it's not as proficient as mine, there's still no problem with sending and receiving messages."
"The only thing that needs to be solved is the password. Because they are newbies, they must have a code book to translate the message!"
Li Hao frowned and replied: "You must not be able to use the code book of the military division?"
Then he turned his attention back to Zhou Liang: "You have specialization in the art industry, so I still leave this task to you!"
"After all, this is just our internal contact, the password doesn't need to be too complicated!"
"Give you three days to come up with a set of passwords based on the clear code, and we will use them ourselves!"
Zhou Liang did not refuse, and reminded him tactfully: "Company Commander, I can figure out a simple password, no problem!"
"But it's too unsafe. The Japanese telegraph operators are all veterans and they can decipher it very quickly!"
"Don't be afraid!" A flash of confidence quickly flashed across Li Hao's face, and then he explained.
"There are only so many people in our independent company, and the scope of our activities is only so large. At worst, we will change a new password every month. If the Japanese want to decipher it, let them decipher it. It doesn't matter!"
