The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 443
Hamada Yoshito came to General Matsuda's office with his own battle plan and reported to General Matsuda.Unexpectedly, General Matsuda did not support his opinion this time.

General Matsuda has his own difficulties. Now, several divisions of the Japanese army have come to the Shandong area, and the division of labor between units is more clear.The powers of the Jinan Gendarmerie Command have been further reduced, and its main task is to be responsible for the security of Jinan City. The commanders of the military police in other places are held by the chiefs of the field army or garrison divisions. The Jinan Gendarmerie Command has no direct affiliation with them. Give them business coaching.The matter of sending troops to fight has nothing to do with him, and it is inconvenient for him to intervene.

There is another reason. General Matsuda has always supported Hamada Yoshito, but Hamada Yoshito is a disaster star. Every time he makes a battle plan, he will cause heavy losses to the Huang Army. Therefore, although his plan looks perfect, Everyone is reluctant to adopt his plan.

In addition, there is another important reason. After the Laoba Road from Shanxi entered Shandong, they pulled the team too fast. From the initial strength of one or two regiments, it quickly expanded to more than 20 troops. The regiment established military divisions in many places in the east and north of Shandong, mobilized the masses, established local armed forces, and grassroots regimes. They were the biggest enemies competing with the Japanese and puppet troops for the domination of Shandong.

On the contrary, Gao Jiu was only active in the Taohuashan area, and he didn't even harass the nearby Shoucheng County and Pingyue County, which was much less of a threat to the Japanese army in Shandong.Therefore, Taohuashan is not currently the main target of the Japanese army in Shandong.

Therefore, the Japanese 12th Army Command currently has no plans to besiege Taohuashan on a large scale.

General Matsuda did not directly veto Hamada Yoshito's plan, he patiently explained the operational thinking of the 12th Army Headquarters at this stage to Hamada Yoshito.

Although Hamada Yoshihito disagreed, he still felt that the Taohuashan guerrillas were a great threat. However, he only had the right to make suggestions, and it was limited to the Jinan Gendarmerie Command. Command's operational thinking.

He had no choice but to stop dealing with Gao Jiu for the time being, and focus on maintaining the law and order in Jinan City.

As the saying goes, a proud soldier is bound to lose.

The 8th Division of the Japanese Army participated in the Battle of Xuzhou and the Battle of Wuhan, and achieved considerable results. This time when they entered the Shandong area, the officers and soldiers felt a little wronged. They were unwilling to undertake the work of local security, and they were more willing to attack the city. Pull out the stronghold and make contributions.

The 15th Brigade lost a squadron in Shoucheng County, which did not attract much attention.After receiving Gao Jiu's challenge, they dispatched a brigade to Shoucheng County to receive the remains of that squadron of Japanese soldiers.

The area from Tai'an to Shoucheng County is a plain area, and they don't believe that they will encounter enemy attacks in such a terrain.

The Japanese Ito Brigade left Tai'an arrogantly and headed for Shoucheng County.

The special operations brigade and the cavalry brigade of the Taohuashan guerrillas were all cavalry, and the [-]-type infantry artillery they carried was transported by cars. They had already ambushed at the junction of Tai'an and Shoucheng counties, waiting for the arrival of the Japanese army.

The Taohuashan guerrillas had a limited number of people. A total of 400 people participated in the battle. An infantry brigade of the Japanese army had more than 1100 people. From the perspective of numbers, the Taohuashan guerrillas had a great advantage in equipment.

高九等人这次携带了8门九二式步兵炮，24门迫击炮，12挺92式重机枪、36挺捷克式轻机枪和22挺歪把子机枪，这样的火力超过了日军一个步兵联队的火力。

About 100 meters away from the road, the guerrillas dug a one-foot-deep shallow ditch behind natural shelters such as field ditches and canals, spread raincoats and quilts underneath, and lay there comfortably, covering their bodies. A khaki quilt was put on, and a layer of dust was sprinkled on it.

Looking from the road, there is no trace of the guerrillas at all. The artillery cannot be used at close range, so it is hidden in a cemetery far from the road.

The Ito brigade decided to set off on a temporary basis. Captain Ito never imagined that in such a short period of time, there would be a large number of enemy troops ambushing so close to Tai'an City.The Japanese army's brigade marched on the road unsuspectingly, as if traveling in mountains and rivers.

The first shot in the battle was still fired by Tagawa.Captain Ito was riding on a tall horse, and his goal was very obvious.Tian Chuan is the number one sharpshooter of the Taohuashan guerrillas besides Gao Jiu. His marksmanship has basically reached the point of perfection. From a distance of 100 meters, he can kill the target with a headshot just like Gao Jiu.

With a gunshot, Captain Ito's head exploded, and he fell directly from his horse.

The order of the Taohuashan guerrilla shooting was that the sniper team launched the attack first, and their task was to destroy the enemy's commander and machine gunner in the first place.

The rest of the guerrillas opened fire immediately after the special forces sniper team fired, with an interval of less than a second.

The Japanese army was a brigade with a relatively large number of commanders at all levels.The sniper team could only choose a Japanese commander with a higher rank to fire as much as possible.The ranks of the Japanese army are strict, and their ranks are easy to judge in the marching queue. Commanders with high ranks usually walk at the front of the queue, and officers with lower ranks stand in the queue.In the first round of shooting by the sniper team, officers above the squadron leader of the Ito brigade were basically killed.

Before the Japanese army could react, 12 heavy machine guns, 36 Czech-style light machine guns, and 22 crooked machine guns fired at the Japanese team together, and the rifles in the hands of other team members also spit out fire snakes.

The firepower of the Taohuashan guerrillas was too fierce. The bullets had no dead ends like the wind. Most of the Japanese soldiers were killed immediately. A small number of Japanese soldiers who survived fell on the ground and started to fight back.

The guerrillas did not charge, they continued to use firepower to suppress the enemy, and then bombarded the remaining Japanese troops with Type [-] infantry guns and mortars.The members of the sniper team also continued to kill the enemies they could see and were still alive one by one.

In just 5 minutes, the Taohuashan guerrillas fired 260 rounds of shells, more than 30 rounds of various bullets, and an average of 300 bullets were consumed to eliminate an enemy. This kind of battle is only fought by the Taohuashan guerrillas in the whole country. afford it.

In fact, it is not too disadvantageous to fight like this. First of all, it greatly reduces the casualties of the guerrillas.Second, the sooner the enemy is defeated, the better the capture.

This battle took only 5 minutes. At the cost of one guerrilla sacrifice, one serious injury, and two minor injuries, a Japanese infantry brigade of 1088 people was wiped out, and 726 complete weapons were seized. More than 600 rounds of mortar shells, more than 26 rounds of various bullets, basically replenished the amount of ammunition consumed by the Taohuashan guerrillas.

Tai'an City, the 15th Brigade Headquarters.

The head of the Autumn Mountain Brigade was a little confused. Not long ago, he received a report from the Gendarmerie Captain Hirata of Shoucheng County. He said that the Taohuashan guerrillas sent him another letter and asked him to tell the head of the Autumn Mountain Brigade. , let him take money to redeem the corpse, this time there are not more than 100 people, and more than [-] people from the Ito brigade will be added.

Gao Jiu didn't open his mouth like a lion. The corpses of Japanese soldiers, regardless of whether they were officers or soldiers, were priced at five oceans per person, and in the end they were rounded up, asking the Akiyama Brigade to pay fifty thousand oceans to buy these corpses back.

He also said that if the head of the Qiushan brigade is not convinced, he can send another person. Anyway, if one more person comes, it will cost five ocean dollars more.

The head of the autumn mountain brigade was mad with anger, but he also began to calm down.You must know that a standard infantry brigade of the Japanese army can almost compete with a division of the national army, and it was wiped out suddenly without knowing why. One can imagine how powerful the Taohuashan guerrillas are.

After a while, he calmed down and carefully studied the previous battles of the Taohuashan guerrillas. Only then did he realize that using troops below the regiment to deal with the Taohuashan guerrillas would be death.

He didn't dare to send troops without authorization anymore, and immediately reported the information to the division headquarters.

At this time, the captain of Yamamoto's garrison saw that Akiyama had been beaten, and his attitude was not so arrogant, so he told him his previous experience and persuaded him to obediently give money to the Taohuashan guerrillas.

The head of the Qiushan brigade was still a little unconvinced, he said: "Yamamoto-kun, you are too cowardly to do such a thing as paying the bandits such a large sum of money, I will not pay it, let's see what those bandits can do to me ?”

He made up his mind that this time he would lead the main force of the 15th Brigade to recover the body and let Gao Jiu know that he was not threatened.He didn't believe that if he and his brigade were dispatched at the same time, what could Gao Jiu do to him?
Captain Yamamoto saw that idiot Akiyama was still talking hard here, so he knew that this guy was in trouble, and Gao Jiu would definitely have further blows waiting for him.

Captain Yamamoto couldn't understand Akiyama's arrogant face, and he didn't bother to remind Akiyama.Back at the garrison, Captain Yamamoto told his subordinates to strengthen their defenses, sleep with one eye open, and hide in the barracks no matter what happened.

Although he couldn't tell when Gao Jiu would come, he believed that Gao Jiu would definitely come again to give Qiu Shan a serious warning.

He guessed right, Gao Jiu became angry when he saw that the head of the Qiushan brigade did not reply.He asked Zhang Quan and Wang Zhankui to return to Taohua Mountain with the main force of the guerrillas, and left Tian Chuan's sniper team near the battlefield to guard the corpses, ready to strike coldly at those enemies who dared to collect the corpses. He himself went to Tai'an City.

At midnight, Gao Jiu came to the southwest corner of Tai'an City, climbed up from the city wall, and after entering the city, he came to the secret intelligence station of the Taohuashan guerrillas in Tai'an City.

He asked where the headquarters of the 15th Brigade was, and walked towards it.

At two o'clock in the morning, Gao Jiu entered the headquarters of the 15th Brigade. He walked around inside and saw a small white two-story building, which was heavily guarded. There was a high-end car parked at the door. As provided by the intelligence station, this should be the residence of the head of the Akiyama Brigade.

Gao Jiu came to the back of the small building. After the Japanese patrol passed by, he first climbed onto the roof, and then entered the small building through the skylight.

Although the rooms in the small building do not have signs, they are usually on the side of the second floor according to the habit of senior officials.From the position of the sentry standing at the top of the stairs, Gao Jiu could tell which side the head of the Akiyama Brigade lived on.

So, he turned over from the toilet on this side.The toilet is easy to identify, it is winter, the windows of other rooms must be closed, only the toilet will leave a gap.

After entering the corridor, Gao Jiu saw a total of six rooms inside. Gao Jiu looked at each of them from outside the door. There was no one in one room, which should be the reception room.There was more than one person in the two rooms, so it couldn't be Qiushan's room, and if one toilet was removed, there were only two rooms left.There is one person in each of these two rooms, sleeping in it.

Gao Jiu pushed open the door of a room, the door made a "squeaky" sound, the person sleeping inside muttered something, and then fell asleep again.

Gao Jiu took advantage of the moonlight to see the clothes hanging on the hanger next to the door.He touched it, and it was the uniform of a lieutenant sergeant. This must not be Akiyama.

Gao Jiu closed the door and backed out, and came to the last remaining room. He pushed the door, but the door was actually inserted from the inside.

The so-called Yigao people are bold, so Gao Jiu was not polite, grabbed the doorknob and pushed hard inside.Gao Jiu's strength was really too great, he pulled out the screw on the door abruptly, making a crackling sound.

Gao Jiu had already judged that the guards at the entrance of the stairs couldn't hear these noises, and the only ones who could hear them were the people in the room.

Sure enough, the people in the room heard the noise and woke up.He dazedly saw a black figure walking in, and said dissatisfiedly, "What's the matter?"

Gao Jiu walked quickly to his bed, and said softly, "Your Excellency, brigade commander."

The person lying on the bed was indeed the head of the Akiyama brigade. He still didn't realize it, mainly because he didn't expect it. He thought it was his subordinates who wanted to report to him.

He said, "Is there anything we can't talk about tomorrow?"

Hearing his tone of voice, Gao Jiu was sure that he was the head of the Qiushan brigade, so she covered his mouth with a hand and put a dagger on his eyelid.

He said: "Chief of the Autumn Mountain Brigade, I am Gao Jiu of Taohuashan Mountain. If you want to survive, you should obediently keep quiet."

Although Qiushan is usually arrogant, he has never encountered such a horrible thing. The famous Gao Jiu actually touched his room.Seeing the dagger shining in front of him, he chose to give up resistance.

Gao Jiu picked up the pillow towel and blocked Qiu Shan's mouth, then took out a rope and tied him up.This is not over yet, he took out two more grenades and tied them to Akiyama's body,

Then he said: "Chief of the Qiushan Brigade, I have something to discuss with you, and I hope you can cooperate."

Qiushan knew that Gao Jiu could kill him at any time, so he nodded, expressing his agreement with Gao Jiu's opinion.

Gao Jiu took out the pillow in his mouth and said, "Your Excellency, brigade commander, I heard that you have become the commander of the Tai'an military police. I hope we can live in peace. Shoucheng County and Pingle County are all my territory. If you don't pass by me Without permission, I sent troops to Shoucheng County without permission, and I had no choice but to kill them all.

I have already asked you to pay 5 oceans to buy those corpses, but you didn't give me face, so I had no choice but to come to you in person to ask for it. "

Qiu Shan listened to Gao Jiu's words and meant that he didn't intend to kill himself, so he immediately relaxed.He was a smart man and said: "Mr. Gao, I have heard from Captain Yamamoto that he has paid you, and I am already planning to pay, and I am planning to send someone to deliver it to you tomorrow."

When Gao Jiu heard this, Qiu Shan was still a sensible person, and he said, "Since you have that intention, then I won't bother you anymore, just give me the money now."

Akiyama said: "There is money in the safe next to the table, the key is on my belt, and the password is 3213." Gao Jiu quickly opened the safe, and saw that there were money orders, gold bars and other valuables inside.He took the money order, which was 35000 oceans in total, and he took a few more gold bars, and said, "I'm not greedy, so I'll take 5 oceans from you." Then, Gao Jiu took out two more gold bars from the safe, and said : "However, I can't run this trip in vain, I have to pay for running errands."

Akiyama said: "You can take whatever is in the safe."

There are really a lot of things in his safe, which are worth [-] to [-] oceans at least.

Gao Jiu said with a smile: "I'm a trustworthy person, and as much as I say is as much as I say. However, I have something to remind you, don't bother me in the future, so that we can live in peace. Do you agree?"

Akiyama didn't have the guts to disagree, he said, "I agree."

Gao Jiu said: "I am a trustworthy person. I hate other people's dishonesty. If someone doesn't count, the consequences will be very serious."

Qiushan now really knows how powerful Gao Jiu is, and he has made up his mind not to provoke Gao Jiu in the future.

He said solemnly: "Mr. Gao, don't worry, I, Qiushan, am also a man of faith. As long as I am in Tai'an, none of the No.15 brigade will enter Mr. Gao's territory."

Gao Jiu said with a smile: "Okay, let's make a deal. Your Excellency, brigade commander, I will leave. However, I have to wrong you."

After finishing speaking, he stuffed the pillow cover into Akiyama's mouth again, took the two grenades from Akiyama's body, and shook them in front of his eyes to let Akiyama understand that he really did not have any malice towards him.

Afterwards, he left Akiyama's room.

Qiu Shan lay on the bed without saying a word, because he didn't know whether Gao Jiu had really left.He thought that since Gao Jiu had the guts to come here, he must have a way out.He didn't want to struggle to get someone to arrest Gao Jiu now, he decided to lie down like this until dawn, waiting for the adjutant to come and wake him up.

The reason Gao Jiu was so polite to Akiyama was because he didn't want to fight the Japanese army.Akiyama is the highest officer of the Japanese army here, and if he can reach a certain tacit understanding with him, a lot of trouble can be saved.

Facts have proved that Gao Jiu's approach is correct, at least at this stage.After such a scene, Qiushan really lost the enthusiasm to find Taohuashan trouble.

On this day, Jiang Xiaomei and Yang Jiong came to Peach Blossom Mountain.
