Jiugong Town, Xinyi Regiment Headquarters.
Kong Jie walked in in a hurry, and said as soon as he entered the door: "Old Ding, this time is in serious trouble."
Ding Wei's eyes kept staring at the battle map in front of him, as if he didn't see Kong Jie.
"Old Ding?" Kong Jie waved his hand in front of Ding Wei's eyes, and said angrily, "Think I'm air?"
"Old Kong, you interrupted my train of thought." Ding Wei said angrily, "I was thinking about how to support Lao Li."
"How else can we support?" Kong Jie said with a dark face, "Yoshio Yansong specially transferred the third brigade back to block us. Judging from the current situation, if we want to cross the Tongpu Railway and directly It is impossible to support Lao Li, at most we will make a fuss along the Tongpu Railway and the outskirts of Anhua."
After a pause, Kong Jie suddenly thought: "Old Ding, how about we fight Anhua?"
"Old Kong, don't make trouble." Ding Wei said unhappily, "Only our two regiments don't even have a decent cannon, and it would be difficult to pull out a slightly larger stronghold, so why are you talking about fighting Anhua?"
Kong Jie said, "Then tell me, what should we do?"
Ding Wei squinted his eyes and said, "I'm thinking, it's definitely not possible to force it. We have to fight skillfully, and we can't fight recklessly. We have to find the devil's vital point!"
"The key?" Kong Jie said, "What is the key?"
After pondering for a moment, Ding Wei said: "Old Kong, let's gather the Violent Wolf Squadron and the Sirius Squadron first, and then select about [-] veterans from the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment to form an assault brigade!"
"And then?" Kong Jie said, "What happens after the establishment?"
"Wait first." Ding Wei said, "Yes, wait."
"Wait?" Kong Jie was dumbfounded.
……
Chu Yunfei took Fang Ligong to the forward observation post of the sole brigade of the Jinsui Army.
This frontier observation post is located in the southwest of the Xiji stronghold, less than five kilometers away from the Xiji stronghold, and the terrain is relatively high, so you can see clearly the Xiji stronghold and the terrain to the north from a condescending height.
With the help of the artillery mirror, it can be seen that the Japanese army is digging a blockade trench two kilometers north of the Xiji stronghold.
Fang Ligong directly looked down from the lookout hole with a telescope, and said, "According to my estimation, the width of the Japanese blockade ditch is about four or five meters, and the depth is only about two meters. The specification does not seem to be high."
Chu Yunfei said: "Brother Li Gong, haven't you seen it yet? The focus of the Japanese blockade this time is not the blockade ditch, but the bunkers along the blockade ditch. The Independence Regiment may be in big trouble this time."
Fang Ligong said, "Is it difficult to remove the bunkers along the blockade?"
"For our lone brigade, it's easy to pull it out." Chu Yunfei snorted and said, "A simple blockhouse like this can be destroyed with a single shell!"
"But for the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army,"
"It's not easy to unplug those bunkers."
"First of all, they have to cross the blockade ditch. After crossing the blockade ditch, they can only use methods such as digging, blasting or even storming to destroy the Japanese bunkers."
"The problem is, these simple bunkers are easy to fix."
"That is to say, the Independence Regiment spent a lot of effort and a heavy price to finally destroy a bunker, but the Japanese army repaired it in the blink of an eye. Do you think the Independence Regiment is not discouraged?"
"It must be discouraged." Fang Ligong laughed, "If it were me, I'm afraid I would just give up."
"The Independent Regiment will definitely not give up easily, and they will definitely fight the Japanese army to the end."
Chu Yunfei snorted twice, then shook his head and said, "This time, the independent regiment may be doomed."
Fang Ligong looked around subconsciously. Fortunately, there was no one else in the observation post, which would not affect Chu Yunfei's personal image.
At the moment, Xia Ligong said: "Then now, the only suspense is how much damage the Independence Regiment can cause to the Japanese army before it is finally wiped out?"
"Yeah, this is probably the only suspense."
Chu Yunfei nodded lightly, and said again: "Brother Yunlong, you must not disappoint Chu. To borrow a word from your brother, even if you die, you will die on the way of charging, so even if your independent group cannot escape, you will be killed." To destroy the army, one must bite off a piece of meat from the Japanese army before the entire army is wiped out."
……
At dawn, Wang Ye led the first combat team of the Wolf Warrior Squadron to Gujiayu.
Hearing that Wang Ye had arrived in person, Gu Zidi was overjoyed for a moment, and quickly led the militia back from the front position.
"Consultant Wang!" Gu Zidi stood at attention and saluted, and said happily, "I didn't expect you to come here in person."
Wang Ye returned a military salute, and asked again: "Have the devils and puppet soldiers ever visited Gujiayu?"
Gu Zi said: "We sent a group of puppet soldiers over before dawn, but we beat them back."
"Okay, then I know." Wang Ye said again, "Have all the villagers moved into the tunnel?"
"It has been transferred to the tunnel a long time ago." Gu Zidi said happily, "Not only the personnel, supplies, and even the livestock have been transferred to the tunnel. Even if the devil enters the village, he will not be able to find a single grain of rice."
"Okay." Wang Ye nodded, and said, "Go to the forward position."
Chapter 365 Sparrow Battle
Ping'an County, Gendarmerie Headquarters.
Miyano Doichi had already moved his division headquarters from Anhua to Ping'an County, in order to direct the nearby D to fight, or this time to mop up Fuliang Mountain.
It took almost three days for Gui Chuanqing to take several staff members of the staff department to build a huge simulation sand table to simulate the terrain of Fuliang Mountain.
Miyano Michiichi can intuitively see the latest progress of the mopping up from the sand table.
Gui Chuanqing pointed to the sand table and said: "Master, please look, the first batch of [-] civilians recruited from the nearby villages have arrived, and they are digging the first blockade ditch along the edge of the Fuliang bandit area."
"Baga!" Miyano Michiichi scolded, "Why are you only five thousand people?"
Gui Chuanqing said: "The next two batches of civilian husbands will be delivered soon, and it won't have much impact."
Miyano Michiichi snorted coldly, and said again: "Kamekawa-kun, I don't care about the process, I only want the result."
After a pause, Miyano Michiichi continued: "I only give you ten days. Within ten days, the first [-]-kilometer-long blockade ditch must be dug, and four hundred simple blockhouses and forty small strongholds must also be dug. It has to be fixed."
"Hayi!" Kiyoshi Kamekawa said after a heavy pause, "Don't worry, the head of the division, there will be no delay."
Miyano Michiichi turned around and left with a muffled grunt. The sweep had just begun, and the main force of the Second Guards Division hadn't even been dispatched yet, so there was absolutely no need for him to stay here, and he could take the time to rest.
It's not too late to be on duty until the mopping up really enters a critical stage.
"Leader, go slowly." Seeing off Miyano Michiichi, Kamekawa Kiyoshi turned his gaze to Arai Tsuneo and Pan Ren.
"Arai-kun, Pan Sang." Gui Chuanqing said with a dark face, "You have heard the words of the head of the division just now, I don't care what method you use, you must recruit [-] civilians within two days."
Regarding the number of civilian husbands, Kamekawa Kiyoshi has carefully calculated.
One peasant can clear ten earthworks a day, 25 peasants can clear 31 square meters a day, and the size of the blockade is two meters by four meters. They can dig [-] kilometers in one day, and the blockade can be dug in seven days. There are still three One day is used to repair bunkers and small strongholds, and there is no time in time.
Tsuneo Arai frowned and said: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, it is no problem to recruit civilians, but if the escape phenomenon cannot be eliminated, no matter how many we recruit, we will run away. This will seriously delay the progress."
"Nani?" Kamekawa Kiyoshi said calmly, "Is there a civilian husband who escaped?"
"Yes, and there are a lot of them." Arai Hengxiong said, "It's not just about escaping. After being escorted to the construction site, many civilians are not willing to contribute at all. They are just doing foreign work, and they can only clear less than one earthwork a day. This kind of progress It can't keep up with the Chief of Staff's vision at all, it's just a waste of food."
"Baga." Gui Chuanqing said bitterly, "These unruly people in China are too hateful."
Arai Hengxiong said: "But they are all good citizens in the consolidated area. According to the order of the general, they cannot be killed indiscriminately, and they cannot even be abused."
Gui Chuanqing's eyes turned to Pan Ren: "Pan Sang, you are resourceful, what can you do?"
"It's so simple." Pan Ren smiled and said, "Just grab their lifeblood."
"Mingkin?" Kiyoshi Kamekawa and Arai Tsuneo looked at each other blankly, "What kind of life?"
"Children, their children." Pan Ren said, "Arrest all the children of civilian husbands and put them under centralized supervision. If anyone dares to run away or do foreign work, let alone kill them, they will cause accidents, such as being bitten by a dog, or falling from a high place." fell, or fell into the pond, and their baby was gone anyway."
"Suoga!" Gui Chuanqing said happily, "Pan Sang, your loyalty is great."
"That is, that is." Pan Ren said flatteringly, "I am absolutely loyal to the imperial army."
Kamekawa Kiyoshi said to Arai Tsuneo again: "Arai-san, then follow what Pan Sang said and arrest all the children."
"Hai!" Arai Hengxiong paused, and walked out of the gate with a saber in his arms, preparing to take two infantry squadrons of the gendarmerie to various towns and towns to arrest the peasants and their children.
……
Gujiayu Village is less than five kilometers away from Ping'an County.
The first outermost blockade ditch is almost adjacent to Gujiayu, and when digging the deep trenches around the village later, they can even share a considerable length of trenches, which saves trouble for the devils.
Considering that the Eighth Route Army will definitely attack and harass, the devils and puppet troops have also made a lot of preparations.
The main road leading to Gujiayu had been blocked, and a dozen circular barricades were built along both sides of the main road. Each barricade had a machine gun erected on it, and there were five devils and a dozen puppet soldiers in each.
Behind these dozen or so circular barricades, there are artillery positions of the devils.
Behind the artillery positions, there are devils' armored units on standby.
Then there is Ping'an County, needless to say, there must be the main force of the devils.
Not to mention the militia in this battle, even if the main force of the independent regiment came, it would not be able to chew.
But the devils and the puppet army were not in a hurry to attack, and only supervised the digging of the blockade by the civilians.
However, the supervision of the devils and puppet army seems to be useless, and the civilian husbands are almost gone.
Gu Zidi, who was holding a tin horn, became even more excited when he saw civilian husbands running away.
"Fellow townsman, don't be so busy. You don't get paid to work for the little devil. What are you trying to do?"
"Hurry up and go home and have a look. Maybe the devils and puppet soldiers are doing harm to your family. Hurry up and go home."
"Then who, are you a bitch? Are you still digging and digging, and digging again, I will shoot, and I will kill you bitch!"
"Hey, that's right. Why do Chinese people make things difficult for Chinese people, right? We don't make things difficult for you, but you don't make things difficult for us either. Just shovel a few times and put on a show, don't really dig."
"Da da da da da da!" When Gu Zidi was shouting vigorously, a bullet suddenly swept over.
The iron horn protruding from the trench was knocked away and fell to the bottom of the trench. When Gu Xiaobei picked it up from the ground, he saw that there were several holes in the iron horn.
"Damn, the devil's marksmanship is really good."
Gu Xiaobei was speechless: "This distance must be 800 meters?"
"This is a Jin-made imitation Czech-style light machine gun with an effective range of up to 1000 meters." Wei Xilai, who was lying not far away, said like a treasure, "The standard range is 500 meters, and it weighs [-] kilograms. It is an excellent gun. A light machine gun is better than a devil's crooked light machine gun, but a crooked one is even more incomparable."
"Grass!" Gu Zidi scolded, "If only we had one."
"You want a machine gun?" Wang Ye smiled, and said, "Then find a way to introduce devils into the village."
"Will the devils come?" Gu Zidi said, "It's almost noon, and the devils and puppet soldiers have not moved their nests in the circular barricade opposite, so I don't think they will be fooled."
"I haven't even tried it, how do you know that devils won't be fooled?"
Wang Ye snorted coldly, and then said, "So, go and buy two big roosters from the fellow villager, shed their feathers, set up a bonfire for barbecue at the entrance of the village, and buy two more bottles of wine."
"Chicken? Do you want wine?" Gu Zidi wondered, "I have no money."
Wang Ye took out two oceans and handed them to Gu Zidi: "Hurry up."
Then Gu Zidi led Gu Xiaobei into the entrance of the tunnel.
Wei Xilai picked up the tin horn and said, "Captain, do you want to keep shouting?"
"Don't bother." Wang Ye said, "If you dare to run, you will run away. If you dare to shout, he will not dare to run. So you should save some energy and save it to fight devils later."
"Will the devil really come?" Wei Xi came alive.
"This is only the first day." Wang Ye said, "Maybe the devil's senior generals have issued strict orders, but the devils below have never tasted our strength, so they must be unable to restrain themselves."
……
On the Japanese positions.
"Sir, dinner is ready."
"Tai-kun Nomura, come and eat white flour buns."
Ma Laosi brought two detectives, carrying a large bucket of white flour steamed buns and a large bucket of millet porridge to the position, and greeted the devils guarding the barricade for dinner.
The devil officer carrying the rank of second lieutenant said to Li Wudou: "Li Sang, the position is handed over to you."
"Hayi!" Li Wudou, the company commander of the puppet army, bowed his head and said, "Taijun Nomura, feel free to eat lunch, we will guard the positions."
"Yo Xi."
Nomura Junji waved his hand and shouted again, "Dinner is served."
More than 50 devils who had been starving for a long time got up one after another, ready to come down for lunch.
It may be because there was no exchange of fire all morning, so the devils were a little relaxed psychologically. Among them, two little devils did not go through the traffic trench, but went directly to the ground.
Now most of the body is exposed.
