At the Japanese Army Brigade Headquarters in Laiyuan City, early in the morning, as soon as the brigade commander walked into the headquarters, he saw the chief of staff standing next to the sand table with a serious look on his face, waiting for him!
"General, as expected, your predictions are accurate. The military headquarters just sent a telegram asking us to pay close attention to the Independent Regiment and send troops to block them in Lingqiu. We will gather together as soon as the military headquarters orders the attack.
We must use our strength to kill them, and we are strictly ordered not to miss again in this operation. We must win with one blow and annihilate the independent regiment!"
"The order also specifically mentions Li Hao, the leader of the independent regiment. In order to prevent him from becoming a serious problem for the imperial army, we must kill him!"
The brigade took a long breath and replied: "This independent regiment is indeed targeted by the military!"
"Chief of Staff, we are under great pressure!"
"Since the military has strictly ordered us to kill the Independent Regiment in one battle, we must do it!"
"Once something unexpected happens, I, the brigade commander, will definitely be punished. And you, as the brigade chief of staff, will definitely be affected too!"
"So next we must work together, pay attention to the independent group, and then kill it!"
"Hi!" the chief of staff replied seriously!
The commando team set out at the Hongquan Village Independent Regiment station three days ago, but Li Hao never moved.
"Captain, commando telegram!" Communications platoon leader Zhou Liang hurriedly walked into the headquarters and reported!
"As expected, Xiao Yuan has chosen our target for action!" Li Hao judged with expectation on his face!
After quickly scanning the telegram handed over by Zhou Liang, a smile quickly flashed across Li Hao's face, and he answered happily.
"It's exactly what I expected!"
"This coal mine is neither big nor small, and we can just capture it. More importantly, there are no other coal mines and Japanese and puppet troops stationed within ten kilometers of this coal mine, which provides us with a good prerequisite for quietly capturing the coal mine."
condition!"
The political commissar who received the telegram reminded: "Are there too many defenders?"
"Xiao Yuan reported that although there is no garrison in this coal mine, the Japanese who control the coal mine are a chaebol. In order to protect the coal mine and check absenteeism, there are two hundred guards in the coal mine. There are nearly a hundred retired old Japanese inside.
They are all traitors, and they are well equipped with light and heavy machine guns and mortars!"
"Just attack this coal mine!" Li Hao was not persuaded by the political commissar and made a decisive decision!
"Being able to support so many guards and traitors means that the owner who controls this coal mine is very rich!"
"Then this coal mine is more worthy of our exploration!"
"As for the light and heavy machine guns and mortars equipped by the escort, they are nothing compared to the mountain artillery. And we will also bring light and heavy machine guns and mortars!"
"So the advantage in strength and firepower is on our side!"
"The Japanese escort team has at most one geographical advantage!"
"However, their only geographical advantage will be useless. If possible, I will try to win the whole battle and not fight them head-on. I will kill them before the Japanese can react!"
"Chief of Staff, immediately give the order to the attack force to set off in two hours. We will leave the base after dark and we will take a small road to attack Datong!"
The marching route was drawn up after the commando team had walked through it, bypassing all Japanese and puppet troops.
The troops marched day and night, and met up with Xiao Yuan who came to meet him at three o'clock in the morning the next night!
"Hello, Captain, we have found another situation in the past two days!" Xiao Yuan reported with excitement when he saw Li Hao.
"The little devils transport a batch of coal every three days. They just transported a batch during the day. If we take action tonight, the news that the coal mine has been captured by us will not be leaked for at least two days!"
Li Hao's brows suddenly wrinkled.
The troops also walked for nearly eight hours tonight, covering a distance of 40 kilometers!
My physical strength is considered very good in the army, but I am still a little out of breath at this time. I am sure that the rest of the army is definitely very tired at this time!
Li Hao is very confident in his commanding ability, but if he is asked to command more than two hundred out-of-breath and exhausted troops to attack two hundred well-equipped elite convoys who are waiting for work, Li Hao has no confidence at all!
But Xiao Yuan is right, now is indeed the best time to launch an attack!
The coal transporters have just left and now they are launching an attack. As long as the only radio link between the coal mine and the outside world is cut off, the Japanese army will not know that the coal mine has been captured by the independent regiment for at least the next two days!
And with these two days, I can safely return to the base with the rescued absentees and seizures!
This raid turned into an unsolved case. The Japanese would not have thought that it would be the work of an independent group more than 100 kilometers away. Even if they wanted to take revenge, they would not be able to find the target!
Seeing Li Hao's troubled face and not making up his mind for a long time, Xiao Yuan continued to add.
"And, Captain!"
"The main defenses of Guizi Coal Mine are facing the foot of the mountain and the gate. The defense of the back mountain is very poor!"
"Perhaps they never thought that they would be attacked, and that the enemy would attack from behind. Therefore, there are only two watchtowers and one trench in the back mountain. There is only one class of Japanese soldiers on duty every night. We can completely attack from behind.
Shan approached their position, then launched a close-range surprise attack, rushed into the living area with lightning speed, and then cooperated with the main force to attack from inside and outside to kill them!"
Li Hao's eyes lit up, he stared at Xiao Yuan and asked: "Are you sure the commando can approach the enemy's position quietly, then quickly enter the living area and capture the enemy's headquarters?"
Xiao Yuan replied confidently: "I'm sure!"
"Then let's take action tonight!" Li Hao finally made up his mind.
"It's three o'clock in the morning. The troops are too tired. It's unrealistic to go into battle right away!"
"Rest for an hour first, replenish your physical strength and dry food, start action on time at four o'clock in the morning, and end the battle before dawn!"
"Yes, leader!"
Four o'clock in the morning is definitely the most tiring time of the day. There were two Japanese soldiers standing on the two watchtowers. One of the Japanese soldiers was too tired, and the biting cold wind was like a needle pricking through the gaps in his clothes.
Get in, force him to huddle up in his coat, and lean against the corner of the watchtower to sleep!
The other sentry was no better!
He forced himself to keep his eyes open and look forward, but he was so exhausted and tortured by the biting cold wind that he almost hid his entire head in his coat, then held the rifle in his arms, looking drowsy.
Painful expression!
The most indispensable thing in a coal mine is electricity, so a searchlight is set up on the central turret of the living area behind the observation tower, and a thick lamppost shines back and forth on the edge of the living area starting from dark!
However, it was impossible for them to take care of every aspect of such a large living area, and each photo session took nearly ten minutes, which provided the commandos with an excellent opportunity to get closer to the observation tower.
As soon as the light from the searchlight moved in front of everyone, the surroundings became dark again.
Wearing camouflage uniforms specially prepared by Li Hao, several members of the commando team quickly emerged from the thatch, holding box cannons in their hands, and approached the watchtower like ghosts!
There were still less than twenty meters away from the watchtower. After all the Japanese security forces entered the shooting range of the box cannon, Xiao Yuan waved his hand and led everyone towards the watchtower!
He held the box cannon with a butt in his hand, and the butt was pressed against his shoulder as a submachine gun. The black muzzle of the gun was pointed at the Japanese soldiers who were getting closer and closer.
As soon as they make any movement, shoot immediately and don't give them a chance to fight back!
Then the commando team stormed into the station with lightning speed, went directly to the most important headquarters in the living area, and captured it!
Xiao Yuan was confident that with the commando's current firepower and combat effectiveness, it would only take one minute to reach the enemy's headquarters, launch a surprise attack, and capture it quickly without giving the enemy a chance to send a telegram for help!
