Chapter 734 Target Supply Station
After a small-scale fierce battle, the mountains and forests became quiet again. A pseudo-Mongolian cavalry reconnaissance team of the Ninth Military Region broke into the hidden area of the Twelve Detachment. Following Ma Qian'an's instructions to "eliminate all intruders and not let one go", the Twelve Detachment simply encircled and annihilated the reconnaissance team of dozens of people.
Zhuoligetu was wearing a single-soldier standard tweed coat, fur turned over the steel helmet-lined fur and buckled it on his head with satisfaction. Not far below him was a lieutenant-level officer of the puppet Mongolian army, half lying on the snow, staring at Zhuoligetu's every move with fear.
The enemy launched a large-scale attack, and the 12th Detachment took back the Zhuoligetu brigade scattered on the grassland. Now Zhuoligetu is the commander of the 5th Regiment of the 12th Detachment. Although this is just a small regiment of the second battalion and fourth company, Zhuoligetu is very happy with his new position.
Zhuo Ligetu stared at a shiny sword halfway into the snow, then looked at the pseudo Mongolian officer in front of him, and finally squatted down and stared at the trembling puppet army and said impatiently: "Hey, you really embarrass our tribe members, why did you throw the knife? What do you think? I am so big now. This knife finally sheds out of sheath. Will you let me insert it back without blood? As the saying goes, it's hard to get into the sheath of a knife. Don't you knock me down? Discuss it and get up and hit it?"
"No, no, no..." The puppet officer shook his head like a rattle, "I admit defeat! I can't beat you." Seeing Zhuoligetu's disappointed eyes, the puppet officer stumbled and tentatively said: "Don't you treat prisoners preferentially?"
Zhuoligetu said angrily: "Bear goods! You don't treat you with preferential treatment! You don't dare to fight with your sword. Why should I treat you with preferential treatment? I really embarrass your ancestors!"
The pseudo-Mongol lieutenant named Borjijit, and it is a famous surname. There are many brave men of his ancestors. No wonder Zhuoligetu was disappointed when he saw Haritao Borjigit.
Ha Ritao seemed to be stimulated by the word "ancestor". He turned over and got up, picked up a saber still on the snow, pulled it out with a whistle, and roared and rushed up.
This is like us Mongolians! Zhuoligetu pulled out the long sword on the snow and stepped forward, and the two of them fought together.
Several soldiers in the distance were puzzled and looked at the regiment commander fighting fiercely with the prisoner. What was going on? The regiment commander was trying to make a knife, and they even cut them after surrendering. Really! But the soldiers didn't come up to help. They believed that since Zhuo Ligetu had the courage to provoke a battle, they had the courage to face him. I wouldn't care about you if I shook my shit. The soldiers shook their heads and ignored him.
After a few rounds of back and forth, Zhuoligetu was more skilled. He kicked the opponent down with a side kick, then rushed forward and pressed the blade on Ha Ritao's neck, staring at Ha Ritao's reaction with wide eyes.
Ha Ritao did not beg for mercy this time. He thought that since he was challenged by Zhuoligetu and he had faced the battle again, this was a war between the two, similar to a duel, and had nothing to do with the background of both sides. If he lost, he would admit it.
Unexpectedly, Zhuo Ligetu suddenly stood up and inserted the saber back into the sheath with a sound of brushing it. Instead of killing him, he pulled him up friendly and hammered his shoulder intimately, making Ha Ritao a little confused.
"Okay, boy! It's not bad for the guy who can catch me, Zhuoligetu, for more than ten swords. I didn't embarrass your ancestors. I'll ask you, why do you work hard for the Japanese?"
"Just make a living!" Haritao saw that Zhuo Ligetu was kind and braver, so he turned aside Zhuo Ligetu and continued to say, "What else can I do? The people from the flag said that I am a good material for joining the army. If you don't want to tell me, I will join the army. I dare not go?"
This is the truth. The Japanese took control of the pseudo-political government in Manchuria. The government ordered the recruitment of troops. How many of them were so bold to not go?
"Okay! Now I'll recruit your soldiers, follow me!" Zhuo Ligetu waved his hand domineeringly, "Even if you die with the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, you can still gain a good reputation. Follow the Japanese as a dog. If you die, you can't get on the table!"
Zhuoligetu was generous enough. In the blink of an eye, he decided on Ha Ritao's fate. Ha Ritao had no choice, so he also gave a big gift readily, "Thank you for not killing me, I'll go with you!"
The leader of the third regiment, Bartel, rode a steaming horse to Zhuoligetu and shouted: "Zhuoligetu, bring your captives with you. Commander Geng wants us to have a meeting."
Zhuoligetu stared at the horse with a keen eye. This was a reconnaissance horse, which was temporarily used by Bartel.
Now the 12th Detachment is far away from its original activity area and has lost the supply of essential materials to feed war horses for a long time. Moreover, when the mountains are blocked by heavy snow and the main valleys are guarded by enemies, it is extremely difficult to move a large number of war horses. Therefore, before the Japanese formed an encirclement, Ma Qian'an had ordered all the troops to be sent to the Anti-Japanese United Nations control area except for retaining reconnaissance and necessary pack horses. Now the 12th Detachment has basically become infantry, which makes Zhuoligetu, who has grown up, not very accustomed to it.
Bartel seemed to have something to say, but he glanced at Haritao and stopped talking.
Zhuoligetu is familiar with this action, so there must be a big task. Zhuoligetu then smiled at Haritao and said, "You are lucky. You have made great achievements when you just joined the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces. These days I have been so tired that I was beaten to the teeth. I immediately sent another piece of meat."
Ha Ritao was not stupid. He knew that the teeth in Zhuoligetu's mouth was referring to him, and he smiled and agreed. However, the word captive sounded harsh, Ha Ritao still expressed a little protest, "I am not a prisoner, I am a brother."
The task assigned by Geng Dianjun was the task assigned by Ma Qian'an to attack the large supply station of the Japanese. For this reason, Ma Qian'an divided all his troops into four groups, each of which was responsible for a supply station.
In order to ensure the completion of the target and not leave the Japanese a chance to strengthen the defense of the supply station after being alert, the four teams must launch an attack within the same time. The four teams are different from their targets. In order to ensure that they launch an attack at the same time, troops far away from the targets must set out first. Bater and Zhuoligetu received the farthest target. After the task was dispatched, the team set out overnight in the night.
After the second night came, Ma Qian'an also led a team to his goal.
His target was Sanhe Town. Sanhe Town originally had a population of more than a thousand people and more than a dozen ethnic groups. Now it has suddenly become the main supply station for the encirclement and suppression of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces. The population has expanded several times for a while, and the traffic is very noisy every day.
Cao Changchen, the commander of the Fourth Army of the Kwantung Army, has already entered Sanhe Town. He lives in the only two-story building in the town. He always has endless "official duties" in the command center every day, and issued countless instructions to command the front-line troops to fight, and was very busy.
Caochangchen, who was overworked this day, had to rest for a while under the advice of his subordinates. He walked up to the second floor and looked at the giant supply station a hundred meters away through the window, hoping that the busy military vehicles outside would give him a feeling of a golden sword and an iron horse.
However, after looking at it for a while, Cao Changchen shook his head in disappointment. He saw several damaged field cannons hanging from the car. Needless to ask, they must have been damaged by the anti-Japanese fire on the front line and pulled them back for repair.
The anti-Japanese artillery was no less than the enemy they faced in terms of number, caliber and accuracy. Caochangchen now only hoped that the opponent's artillery shells would not be able to provide support, that's all. Faced with a unit that also had fierce artillery fire, the Japanese army had no advantage in heavy weapons.
This battle is hard to fight! Caochangchen sighed in his heart. Several main forces of the Anti-Japanese United Army converged with Ma Zhanshan, and it was even more difficult to break through one by one.
