Chapter 338: The National Salvation Army Preemptive Strike
When Tang Shengbo heard that he could get ten guns, his face suddenly burst into laughter: "The leader has agreed."
"The twenty Mauser pistols are all left in the reconnaissance company, and there is no need to hand over to the regiment headquarters. The reconnaissance team will pick first, and all the remaining equipment is equipped with the other two platoons of the reconnaissance company!"
Wang Tieshan answered readily: "Then I will give you the gun in a while. For bullets, each gun will be given 150 rounds, and the remaining 7,000 rounds will be temporarily handed over to the regiment headquarters."
"There is one more thing I want to report: Last night we raided the Japanese Punishment Guard Command, killed seventy or eighty Japanese devils below the deputy captain of the Guard, seized two radio stations, a large number of maps and important documents, as well as gold worth 3,000 yuan. All the things were brought back by us and needed to be sent to the regiment headquarters immediately."
Tang Shengbo was stunned again and looked at Wang Tieshan with disbelief and asked, "Say it again, where did you raid last night?"
"The Japanese army pacified the garrison command!" Wang Tieshan's expression was much calmer, as if raiding the Japanese command was a normal task, without any fuss.
I thought about it and continued to report: "Because we did not use guns during the raid, the Japanese in the city did not know the news of the attack on the command center, so we set up a large number of boasts there before we left."
"After all the reconnaissance teams left the city, the Japanese army detonated those thunders, and they probably could kill and injure dozens of Japanese devils."
"I guess Pingding City has become a mess, and the Japanese and puppet troops are searching for us in the city like crazy."
"In order to prevent the Japanese from taking the opportunity to retaliate against ordinary people, I took the initiative to leave the name of our National Salvation Army, but did not indicate the identity of the investigation team. I don't know whether it is right or wrong."
Tang Yufeng finally reacted from the shock, and his expression looking at Wang Tieshan was obviously more serious than before.
If I had just regarded Wang Tieshan as the deputy company commander of the reconnaissance company, I would talk to him as an above-level person.
At this moment, he had already placed Wang Tieshan on an equal position with him.
The difficulty of raiding the Japanese command is several times more difficult than raiding the puppet military police brigade. The reconnaissance team not only succeeded, but also escaped unscathed, which shows how strong their combat effectiveness is.
It was not until this time that Tang Yufeng understood why the regiment commander placed the reconnaissance team under the name of the reconnaissance company but did not give him command.
With the strong strength currently exposed by the reconnaissance team, I am indeed not qualified to command them.
Seeing Wang Tieshan displaying the captured radio stations, little yellow croakers, telegrams, documents, maps, etc. one by one, Tang Yufeng quickly stopped it: "Don't take out the rest, you can hand it over to the reconnaissance company immediately, and I will arrange for the troops to march and send it to the regiment headquarters."
"The reconnaissance team rests on site and replenishes their physical strength. The regiment headquarters asked you to keep an eye on the action team that the Japanese were about to send to our defense zone... Considering that the reconnaissance team has limited strength? The regiment commander specifically asked the reconnaissance company to cooperate with your actions? So don't be polite when there is a mission later, and just give orders if you want us to do whatever we want."
Xiyang County National Salvation Army? Including Zhou Cheng? No one expected that the reconnaissance team could win another battle in such a short time, and it was an almost impossible task to raid the Japanese army's pacification garrison command.
Looking at the spoils on the table? Several people were so happy that their mouths could not close, especially Tang Yufeng? He stared at the radio station on the table and was reluctant to leave: "Captain? Your decision to form a reconnaissance team is too correct. Although it took a little more manpower and material resources, it was strong in combat. The command of the Japanese garrison was like entering a no-man? Go if you want to go? Go if you want to go. I really want to form two more troops like this!"
Speaking of this, Tang Yufeng was moved by himself. He looked at the gold on the table and asked thoughtfully: "The gold sent back by the investigation team in the past few days is worth 9,000 yuan, and there is still a thousand yuan of existing oceans? The funding pressure of the regiment headquarters has disappeared all of a sudden, and there is still a lot of surplus? Otherwise, we will continue to pick people from the regiment and form another investigation team? The cost is higher, and we can still bear it!"
The Investigation Team used military achievements to prove its strength? It also proved that the decision to form a Investigation Team was correct when it defeated the opposition.
Zhou Cheng was very pleased? He was also very satisfied? But he did not agree with Tang Yufeng's proposal.
"Old Tang, in addition to consuming a lot of manpower and material resources to form a reconnaissance squad, the most important thing is to look at people. Even if we force him to join the reconnaissance squad, we can't train ordinary soldiers."
"The ability of our National Salvation Army to pick out the dozen or so elite troops in the existing reconnaissance team is the result of my continuous relaxation of conditions. There is really no one to support us in forming another reconnaissance team."
"Wait first and see if the 1,500 new recruits in the recruit battalion will have good seedlings after they form combat effectiveness, and then determine whether to expand the reconnaissance team."
After saying that, he turned his attention to the spoils on the table: "Old Tang, immediately organize a hand-translated all the documents and telegrams brought back by the reconnaissance team, and pick some important contents for me, the faster the better."
"The radio stations send communications. With them, there are already five radio stations in the communications queue, but we only have three telegraphers, and ordered Xue Ya and Deng Jinghua to bring me four qualified telegraphers as fast as possible, so that each of our main battalions who go out to perform tasks can be equipped with a radio station, which greatly increases the speed of our transmission of messages and commands."
"Let Deng Jinghua pick a radio station and set off with the scouts who had just returned, arrive at the blockade line and meet with the reconnaissance company, and establish a radio contact between the reconnaissance company and the regiment headquarters..."
In a Japanese stronghold on the blockade, nearly sixty Japanese were divided into three groups to gather here on the open space at the barracks.
They were wearing military uniforms of the National Salvation Army and holding Japanese equipment. Two of the soldiers happened to be two combat teams, and the third team was equipped with two heavy machine guns and two mortars, forming a mixed fire support team.
Because of the military uniform, they glanced over and they were out of place with the Japanese devils responsible for the guards around them, and they looked like two troops.
"The army sets off right away... I am waiting for your good news here. I hope you will live up to the brigade commander and complete the task smoothly..." The captain and squadron leader standing in front of everyone looked expectant.
"Hayi..." The captain of the three teams answered at the same time.
They are all squad leaders with the rank of lieutenant. It should be considered a waste of talent to command a combat team to sneak into the national defense zone for sabotage.
However, in order to increase the chances of the operation team, allow them to survive in the National Rescue Military Defense Zone for longer and create more damage, Major Asakawa reluctantly gave up and forced ten second lieutenants with rich grassroots command experience from the army to strengthen the operation team, and promised that as long as they complete the task smoothly, all officers will be promoted to lieutenant on the day they return to the army.
With beautiful expectations for the future, each team leader is full of expectations for their next actions, and wishes to enter the National Salvation Military Defense Zone and kill all directions now.
A crack was carefully opened at the gate of the stronghold. A combat team first came out. After more than a dozen Japanese disappeared completely in the night, the international support team followed and another combat team came out finally...
More than two hundred meters away from the stronghold, the members of the two reconnaissance teams were like hunters, lurking quietly in the grass.
They have been here for half a night, taking turns to watch the gate of the stronghold.
Seeing the Japanese coming out and wearing military uniforms of the National Saving Army, the two team members immediately became energetic because the prey they had been waiting for for a long time appeared.
One team member continued to stay where he stared at the gate, and the other team member quickly retreated.
There was a reconnaissance squad hidden in the two hundred meters behind them, and they unconditionally cooperated with the two team members in front to keep an eye on the stronghold.
Two minutes later, the reconnaissance squad left the hiding site and divided his troops to follow the Japanese who had just left the stronghold.
The blockade line is the junction between the National Salvation Military Defense Zone and the Japanese and Puppet Army occupied the area. The Japanese Operation Team left the blockade line and walked dozens of meters away from the Xiyang direction and entered the National Salvation Military Defense Zone, and then headed straight to its own activity area.
Zhou Cheng was woken up in his sleep in the Xiyang County National Salvation Army. When he hurried to the war room, Chief of Staff Chen Zhengyu and Deputy Commander Tang Yufeng were all around the sand table to discuss something, and his eyes shot out from time to time.
"Captain, the Japanese Operation Team has been dispatched..." Chen Zhengyu saw Zhou Cheng coming, and quickly pointed to the sand table to introduce.
"Captain Wang of the Reconnaissance Team and Company Commander Tang of the Reconnaissance Company sent a telegram together. They found a total of thirteen Japanese operations teams, including ten Japanese operations teams in combat teams, with fifteen Japanese soldiers and two puppet troops leading the way. The other three operations teams were equipped with two mortars and two heavy machine guns, which should provide firepower support to the ten previous operations teams."
"The approximate locations of the 13 operation teams are marked on the sand table. Deputy Commander Tang and I think we should take the initiative and kill the Japanese before they start to destroy our defense zone, completely solve these hidden dangers, and let the Japanese lose their wife and their troops."
"We must take the initiative!" Tang Yufeng said.
"The documents and telegrams brought back from the Japanese command have been translated by half, and the Japanese military brigade commander clearly records the next strategy of the Japanese military commanding us!"
"The Japanese still plan to start from the food, block us first, and prevent a piece of food from entering our National Salvation Army from outside. Then they send troops to infiltrate into our defense zone, burn down crops that have not yet been harvested in the ground, and destroy our granary for storing grain... to increase our food shortage."
"When the defense zone is out of food, the morale of the army and the people will be unstable, and even turmoil occurs. The Japanese will gather heavy troops to launch an attack. If we don't say we will be hit all of us, there will definitely be no problem if we have severe damage."
"I'm going to report this to you tomorrow morning, but I didn't expect the Japanese to take action tonight."
"The defense zone is so big. If the Japanese really want to burn the fields and get food, we can't be able to guard against it. The best solution is to take the initiative and catch them all in one place, and not give them the chance to burn our food."
Zhou Cheng looked gloomy when he heard this. The Japanese devils' trick was too powerful. If the reconnaissance team had not judged from some details that the Japanese would send troops to infiltrate the defense zone and raid the Japanese command center to bring back this information, no matter how well they were prepared, the National Salvation Army would have suffered heavy losses in this operation.
Take a deep breath, stare at the sand table and start giving orders: "Order the First Battalion and the Cavalry Company to act immediately, strengthen a certain number of heavy machine guns and mortars based on the platoon, and quickly fight and kill these operation teams."
"Order the intelligence department, the first battalion, the second battalion, the spy company, to keep an eye on the Japanese in Xiyang to death."
"The operation team that pacified this side has been dispatched, and they should start to act. They must find the enemy in the shortest time and kill them."
