The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 505 Gao Jiu is in Cang County
The vanguard of the Japanese army was an infantry squadron. The Japanese garrison consisted of only two squadrons, about 130 people. They had been notified that the anti-Japanese army occupying Cangxian County was the main force.Seeing that they were approaching the county seat, these devils also began to be careful. They slowed down their marching speed and searched carefully.

They saw the enemy's cavalry from a distance, and immediately stopped advancing. While building fortifications on the spot, they sent people back to report to their superiors.

The enemy cavalry came towards them and stopped at a distance of more than 200 meters from them.The officers and soldiers of the Japanese army watched the enemy disperse in all directions, and quickly made preparations to guard against the enemy's attack.

The battle started, and as soon as the fire was exchanged, the Japanese army felt the strength of the enemy.Those enemies shot at them at a distance of about 250 meters. The marksmanship is so precise that they basically bite the flesh with such a long distance.

However, Japanese officers and soldiers were basically out of accuracy when shooting at such a long distance.The two sides stalemate for a short while, and the Japanese army suffered a large number of casualties.

The Japanese squadron leader hurriedly commanded the two mortars equipped by the squadron to shoot at the enemy. As soon as they set up the mortars, the enemy's bullets flew over, and the mortarmen were killed one after another.

The squadron leader of the Japanese army had never seen such a formidable enemy before, so he couldn't help feeling a little flustered.He knew that if he persisted like this, he would be consumed by the enemy.Seeing that the enemy's ranks were very scattered, he decided to concentrate his forces and charge in one direction. With superior forces, he would first destroy the enemies in one direction.

He drew out his command knife and shouted: "Assault here." He jumped up and charged forward with the soldiers to the right.

Ning Wen had been waiting for the devil's squadron leader to show up, and that guy had been hiding behind the field ridge, so he was lucky enough to be alive now.

The devils howled and rushed forward, and they were simply easy targets for the special forces.

This place is different from Peach Blossom Mountain in that the special operators carry limited ammunition.In order to save bullets, they no longer use machine guns, but use the rifles in their hands to destroy the enemies one by one.

The marksmanship of the special forces members was so accurate that the devils had already been killed in half after rushing forward less than 50 meters.The devil's squadron leader was shot in the neck by Ning Wen and killed on the spot.

The devils who were lucky enough to survive could not stand such a blow, and they fled desperately in the direction they came from.

The special forces members got on their horses, chased these devils, and shot them to death one by one.

The battle lasted less than 20 minutes, and most of the devils were killed. Only a dozen or so devils hid in a small depression and continued to shoot at the special forces.

The special forces had no choice but to use mortars to blast the devils out.

The battle was over, and the special forces confiscated all the weapons and ammunition on the devils.According to Gao Jiu's request, every time they fight now, they must save ammunition and capture as much as possible so that they can deal with the enemy's main force next.

After destroying the Japanese army, Gao Jiu led the other team members to continue forward to meet the enemy, except for the special forces members who transported weapons and ammunition back.

The follow-up Japanese army was the main force of an infantry brigade of the Japanese army, and a battalion of the puppet army acted with them.

Not long ago, the Japanese army received a report from the communications soldier sent by the forward squadron, saying that the anti-Japanese army was found ahead, and he immediately led the troops to reinforce.

When he saw the enemy's cavalry in front, he knew that the Japanese squadron in front was gone, otherwise, the enemy would not be able to get here by crossing the Japanese army in front.

The captain of the Japanese army immediately judged that the enemy in front was very strong. Based on his experience, if a squadron of the Japanese army in front was wiped out by the enemy, the enemy's strength should be at least 500 people.He immediately ordered the troops to stop advancing and build fortifications on the spot. At the same time, he sent someone to ask for help from his superiors.

He carefully observed the enemy's situation and felt very puzzled.Those enemies were less than 100 people. He suspected that this was just the enemy's forward force, and there should be a large force behind.

Therefore, he did not order the troops to launch an attack just because he saw a small number of enemy troops. He ordered to hurry up and build fortifications to prevent a large number of enemy attacks.

After a long time, the captain of the Japanese army did not see the follow-up enemy troops.Dozens of enemy cavalry scattered in groups of several and dismounted about 300 meters away from them.

The captain of the Japanese army judged that these anti-Japanese troops were only responsible for monitoring them in order to wait for the arrival of their main force.

Soon after, those enemies opened fire on the Japanese troops.The captain of the Japanese army ordered to fight back, and the two sides started a fierce exchange of fire.

A few minutes later, the captain of the Japanese army realized that something was wrong. In such a short period of time, the Japanese army lost more than 100 people.Obviously, they failed to achieve the effect of striking those anti-Japanese troops.

The captain of the Japanese army has been active in this area for so long, and he has never heard of such a powerful anti-Japanese army in the area.He judged that this enemy must be from outside, and he immediately reported the situation to his superiors.

The division head of the 132nd Division of the Japanese Army received several reports that a very powerful anti-Japanese army was found in Cang County.He also judged that this enemy was by no means the local anti-Japanese armed forces.

The Taohuashan guerrillas led by Wang Zhankui launched an attack on multiple Japanese troops and caused heavy casualties to the Japanese troops.These Japanese troops also reported this situation to the Division Headquarters of the 132nd Division.

The division head of the 132nd Division had received a notification from his superiors. According to the situation described in the notification, he suspected that the enemy army that appeared near Cang County might be the Taohuashan guerrillas from Shandong. He immediately The Japanese intelligence agency was asked to investigate the matter.

Soon after, the Japanese army got news from the captured prisoners of the underground anti-Japanese armed forces, saying that their superiors ordered them to withdraw to Jizhong, and those who were responsible for covering them included Gao Jiu's Taohuashan guerrillas.

After the division head of the 132nd Division received this information, he immediately reported to the headquarters of the North China Dispatch Army in Peiping.

Ever since Gao Jiu and others destroyed the heavy artillery unit of the Second Heavy Artillery Brigade, the North China Dispatch Army hated Gao Jiu to the bone.After hearing the news, he immediately sent a telegram to the head of the 132nd Division, ordering them to leave only a small number of troops to chase the anti-Japanese troops who participated in the riot, and concentrate their main force to encircle and suppress Gao Jiu.

The head of the 132nd Division confirmed that Gao Jiu was near Cang County, and he was very excited.He believes that this area is a plain area, Gao Jiu and the others are out of the special environment like Taohua Mountain, and they cannot compete with the powerful Huang army.For him, it is far more important to eliminate Gao Jiu, a world-renowned gangster, than the mob who participated in the riot.

He made up his mind, and issued a death order to the various units of the Japanese and puppet troops under the 132nd Division, asking them to encircle Cang County with all their strength, and must encircle Gao Jiu in the county seat of Cang County to completely annihilate him.

Just when the troops of the 132nd Division encircled Cang County, the headquarters of the North China Dispatch Army sent them a telegram, asking them to surround Gao Jiu and report to them immediately after confirming that Gao Jiu was in Cang County.The North China Dispatch Army decided to send the Heavy Artillery Brigade, the rest of the troops, and the First Air Force of the Air Force stationed in Peiping to participate in this combat operation to encircle Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu naturally thought about what the enemy could think of.

After Wang Zhankui and others harassed multiple Japanese and puppet troops, they wiped out a large number of Japanese and puppet troops and covered the retreat of the underground anti-Japanese troops that participated in the riot.Then, according to Gao Jiu's instructions, they headed towards Beiping.

After Gao Jiu and the others confronted the Japanese army for a while, they saw that the Japanese army had too many troops, and the artillery hidden among them kept firing at Gao Jiu and the others. Unfortunately, two special forces members were hit by shells sacrifice.Gao Jiu ordered the retreat and led the team back to Cang County.

The underground party came to a conclusion based on all kinds of information. They knew that the Japanese and puppet troops were targeting Gao Jiu and the others, so they sent a telegram to Gao Jiu, asking them to evacuate Cang County to avoid being encircled by the Japanese and puppet troops. .

Gao Jiu learned from Jiang Jing that about 4 anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians had not yet evacuated. He decided to continue to stick to Cang County to attract the main force of the Japanese and puppet troops and buy time for the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians who participated in the anti-Japanese riots to break through safely.

The underground party was very moved by this, and asked Jiang Jing to transfer some backbones from the retreating anti-Japanese army to help Gao Jiu and others stick to Cang County.

Jiang Jing once again mobilized 500 combat backbones to join Gao Jiu's defense force.

Gao Jiu was very pleased and went to visit these remaining underground anti-Japanese soldiers in person.

These soldiers could have evacuated with the large army. They knew that if they stayed in Cang County, they would definitely die.But they saw that the famous Gao Jiu and the guerrillas from Taohuashan risked their lives to fight here for the anti-Japanese army in Northeast China, and everyone was willing to fight side by side with them and share life and death together.

After seeking Jiang Jing's opinion, Gao Jiu reorganized the remaining underground party anti-Japanese troops into 11 companies, which were temporarily led by people from the Taohuashan guerrillas.

Jiang Jing gathered the underground party members of these 11 companies, mobilized them, and asked them to unite with other anti-Japanese fighters, resolutely obey the command of the Taohuashan guerrillas, stick to the county seat of Cang County, and save the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians from danger To gain time.

These underground party members expressed their obedience to the organization's decision, and played their exemplary role as an underground party member in future battles.

In this era, the vast majority of underground party members have firm beliefs, can play a central role in the army, and can play a very important role in uniting the army and enhancing the combat effectiveness of the army.

Gao Jiu ordered the Taohuashan guerrillas to take the time to familiarize themselves with the underground anti-Japanese soldiers, conduct tactical training for them, and distribute the captured weapons and ammunition to them, which greatly improved the combat capabilities of these anti-Japanese fighters.

In this way, in addition to the 200 members of the Taohuashan guerrillas who Wang Zhankui took away, the total number of Taohuashan guerrillas, underground party troops, and the guerrillas of Jiang's father and son who remained in Cangxian County reached [-]. More than [-] people, well equipped and high morale, are ready to fight to the death with the Japanese and puppet troops.

Just before the Japanese and puppet troops were about to encircle Cang County, Gao Jiu called Tian Chuan, Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others, and asked them to lead 20 special forces outside the city to attack the enemy with cameras.At the same time, they are given an important task, which is to ensure the safety of the tunnel exit in the future.

After leaving the city, Tian Chuan, Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others first went to the northwest of the county seat, where they attacked a puppet army that was chasing the retreating underground anti-Japanese army, and seized more than 100 guns and ammunition.Tianchuan sent two special forces members to transport the weapons and ammunition back to the county with the help of the underground anti-Japanese army.

In the future battle to defend the county seat, the biggest difficulty is the lack of ammunition.What Tian Chuan and others did made Gao Jiu very happy.He told Tian Chuan and the others that the weapons and ammunition they had seized could be temporarily stored in case they could be used at critical moments.

That night, Gao Jiu quietly came to the house in the southeast corner of the city.

Huang Wei is indeed a talent, with rich experience in digging tunnels.In order to speed up the excavation, he adopted the method of two-person frontal excavation. Although the amount of tunnel excavated in this way seems to be larger than those tunnels that can only be passed by one person, the tunnel dug in this way is not only more spacious, but also convenient. Start construction, but the speed is faster.At the same time, because the tunnel is relatively spacious, the problem of ventilation can be solved without more additional vents.

Huang Wei and others worked desperately to dig the tunnel, and the progress of the tunnel was very fast. In just two days, nearly 120 meters had been dug.

Gao Jiu was very happy, and rewarded all those who participated in the excavation of the tunnel with 20 yuan each, and promised that after the task was completed, in addition to the 50 yuan promised to reward them, another 30 yuan would be given to them. They rounded up to 100 oceans.As for Huang Wei, Gao Jiu decided to reward him another 100 oceans.

Gao Jiu admired Huang Wei very much, and after seeking his opinion, he decided to take him to Taohua Mountain together.After Huang Wei got in touch with Gao Jiu and others, he also had a certain understanding of the Taohuashan guerrillas and was willing to join the Taohuashan guerrillas.

Under the arrangement of Gao Jiu, before the encirclement of the Japanese army, a special forces member and two members of Zheng Sanpao were sent to escort Huang Wei's family to Peach Blossom Mountain to solve his worries.

Gao Jiu personally inspected the tunnel. He saw that there were enough manpower, so he made a suggestion: that is to speed up the speed of personnel shifts. Every two people only keep working for 10 minutes before starting to change people. Maximum stamina.

After Huang Wei and others tried, they found that this speed could be accelerated, and they all expressed their admiration for Gao Jiu's method.

After Gao Jiu came for this trip, Huang Wei and the others were in high spirits and worked harder to dig the tunnel.

Later, Gao Jiu personally led people out of the city, attacked the Japanese and puppet troops near the county seat, and seized more than 100 guns and a large amount of ammunition.

In the evening of this day, a large number of Japanese and puppet troops finally formed a siege on the county seat of Cang County.

The division head of the 132nd Division of the Japanese Army made a comprehensive judgment based on various reports and believed that Gao Jiu and others were surrounded in the county, so he reported the news to the North China Dispatch Army.

The senior officials of the North China Expeditionary Army were very happy and ordered the Second Heavy Artillery Brigade to set off for Cang County tomorrow morning. At 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, the Japanese First Air Force sent bombers to bomb Cang County.

In the afternoon of that day, Wang Zhankui and others had already arrived near Beiping. After night fell, they quietly came to the periphery of the Japanese army's Beiping airport, preparing to launch an attack on the Japanese army's airport at night.
