The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 510 Advice from the Japanese Captain
Jiang Xiaomei finally saw Gao Jiu, she was full of joy, just about to speak, when someone shouted: "Little sister."

Jiang Xiaomei followed the voice and saw her father Jiang Xinshan and elder brother Jiang Yong.

"Father, brother." Jiang Xiaomei was overjoyed and ran towards them.

Jiang Xinshan and his son looked at the heroic Jiang Xiaomei, and they were also extremely excited. The father and daughter talked affectionately.

Gao Jiu and the others were very relieved to see the scene where their family was reunited and talking happily.Many of them are now separated from their families, and even lost their news.This scene of family reunion and warmth makes people imagine and feel deeply moved.

So far, under the city of Cang County, the total number of Taohuashan guerrillas, Eighth Route Army troops, and Peace Army Seventh Division troops assembled has exceeded 5000.The Japanese army in the city has been bombarded by continuous artillery fire, and the current number is less than [-].The anti-Japanese army is fully capable of annihilating the besieged Japanese army.

In the headquarters of the Seventh Division of the Peace Army, Gao Jiu and others held a joint meeting.Attending the meeting were Gao Jiu, Wang Zhankui, Gao Hong, Commander of the Shandong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, Jiang Xiaomei, Commander of the Independent Brigade, Yang Jiong, Political Commissar, Cui Zhenshan, Commander of the Fourth Military Division of the Jizhong Military Region, Gao Wenchang, Commander of the 7th Division of the Peace Army, and Wang Yunliang, Chief of Staff. And officers above the various ministries and regiments.

Gao Wenchang, Wang Yunliang and the officers of the Seventh Division of the Heping Army were all very surprised to see that Gao Jiu was able to mobilize so many troops from the Eighth Route Army.

After the meeting started, Gao Jiu first briefed the participants on the battle situation.

After Gao Jiu introduced the deployment of troops between the enemy and us, he said: "Today, the remaining troops of the 132nd Division of the Japanese Army are less than 5000 people. They rushed into the county town with limited ammunition. With the current strength of our army, we are completely sure to eat Get rid of this enemy.

Although the Cang County area is a plain area, it is relatively easy for the Japanese army to provide reinforcements, but there is no need to worry about it. "

When he said this, Cui Zhenshan, the commander of the Fourth Military Division of the Jizhong Military Region, said: "I have already reported to the Jizhong Military Region that the Japanese army coming out of Beiping will be intercepted by the Jizhong Military Region's main force of more than [-] people. Buy us five days."

The Japanese troops who were able to come to the rescue in a short time were mainly the Japanese troops in the direction of Beiping.With the troops of the Jizhong Military Region blocking the enemy's reinforcements, the Anti-Japanese Army can safely encircle and suppress the Japanese troops in Cang County.

Everyone felt relieved when they heard the good news.

Gao Jiu went on to say: "According to the information provided by the military command, the Japanese and puppet troops in Northeast Hebei are gathering in the city of Cangzhou, with a total strength of about [-] soldiers. Among them, only the two infantry soldiers of the Japanese army are really capable of fighting. The brigade, and the rest are gendarmerie and puppet local armed forces, which do not pose a great threat to our army."

After solving everyone's worries and strengthening everyone's determination to encircle and wipe out the Japanese army in Cang County, Gao Jiu made specific combat deployments.

Gao Jiu asked all the troops participating in the siege to hurry up and repair the fortifications to prevent the Japanese army from breaking out.Wang Zhankui was sent to take part of the Taohuashan guerrillas and Jiang Xiaomei's cavalry to Cangzhou to monitor and block the Japanese reinforcements.

Gao Jiu asked the troops of the Seventh Division to take out all the weapons and ammunition in stock and distribute them to the Eighth Route Army participating in this battle.As for their losses, Gao Jiu promised to make up for them later.

In order to reassure them, Gao Jiu asked Jia Liu to send a telegram to the Chongqing government in his own name on the spot, asking them to provide weapons and ammunition.

Both Gao Wenchang and Wang Yunliang expressed their obedience to Gao Jiu's orders.

When the commanders and fighters of the Eighth Route Army arrived in Cang County, they had already been supplemented with a large number of weapons and ammunition seized by Gao Jiu and others. happy.Moreover, everyone is looking forward to the capture of a large number of weapons and ammunition after the Japanese army is wiped out.Everyone was very excited and asked Gao Jiu to make further operational deployments.

The meeting continued, and Gao Jiu asked the troops not to launch an attack on the Japanese army, but to continue to strengthen the fortifications and prevent the Japanese army from breaking through.The specific offensive operations were carried out by the Taohuashan guerrillas at night.

The officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army sincerely wanted to participate in the battle. Seeing that Gao Jiu only let them watch, they all felt a little dissatisfied and asked to participate in the attack, but Gao Jiu politely declined.

The officers and soldiers of the Seventh Division of the Peace Army, fearing the Japanese army for a long time, worried that Gao Jiu would let them launch a strong attack on the Japanese army, which would cause heavy casualties.They also didn't expect that Gao Jiu only let them watch from the sidelines and didn't take part in the attack, so they were very moved.

In this way, the Taohuashan guerrillas were responsible for the most difficult tasks of blocking the enemy's reinforcements and attacking the Japanese troops in the city.The officers of the Eighth Route Army and the Peace Army were very moved and admired by such a noble character.

Everyone expressed their obedience to Gao Jiu's order.

Gao Jiu's arrangement was not out of bragging rights, because he knew that whether it was the troops of the Eighth Route Army in Cang County or the troops of the Peace Army, there were not many backbone troops that could really participate in the battle.If they are responsible for these two tasks, once heavy casualties are caused, it will cause a serious loss of morale, and it is likely to cause bad consequences.

Gao Jiu's worries were not unfounded. Most of the current Eighth Route Army members are ordinary people without any combat experience. These people can only fight with the wind. Once they encounter setbacks, they may collapse immediately.

The troops of the Peace Army were forced to turn against the water, and the hearts of the troops were unstable. Once a large number of casualties were caused, they might be thrown back into the arms of the Japanese army.

Therefore, it is better to let them stick to their positions and prevent the Japanese army from breaking through.

Strong maneuverability and good night fighting are the strengths of the Taohuashan guerrillas, which can effectively reduce the casualties of the troops and kill a large number of Japanese troops.

After making the battle deployment, Gao Jiu asked the officers of the Eighth Route Army and the Peace Army for their opinions and asked them to supplement the combat plan.

Just then, a telegram from Chongqing came back.There were three telegrams in total. The bigwigs from the Military Command, the Ninth War Zone and the Fifth War Zone greeted Gao Jiu one after another, and said that they would provide him with weapons and ammunition according to Gao Jiu's request.

The officers of the Seventh Division of the Peace Army saw that Gao Jiu was not only able to mobilize so many Eighth Route Army troops, but also mobilized personnel from the military command of the government to provide information. A telegram was sent, and the government was willing to provide him with weapons and ammunition. With the support of Gao Jiu, I feel Gao Jiu's great energy even more, and I am more convinced of Gao Jiu.They believed that Gao Jiu's influence was enough to guarantee their future, so they followed Gao Jiu even more desperately.

Everything is ready, and the troops start their operations separately.

Wang Zhankui and Jiang Xiaomei were about to set off with their troops. Jiang Xiaomei arrived in Cang County on a long march, and it was too late to meet Gao Jiu alone, and they had to say goodbye in a blink of an eye.This time, Jiang Xiaomei didn't show any mood swings. Seeing that Gao Jiu was doing well, she was already very satisfied.She flew onto the war horse, turned her head and smiled sweetly at Gao Jiu, and Gao Jiu also smiled slightly, the deep affection in each other's hearts was expressed without words.

Gao Jiu waved at her, and Jiang Xiaomei rode her horse and whipped her whip, and galloped towards Cangzhou.

Gao Jiu is very satisfied with her confidante, no matter what danger she encounters, Jiang Xiaomei always comes to rescue without hesitation.For a man to be cared so wholeheartedly by an excellent woman, this life is already worth it.

The officers of the Peace Army who saw off Jiang Xiaomei and the others had all heard the story between the female general in red and Gao Jiu.When they saw the beautiful and heroic Jiang Xiaomei, they all cast envious eyes on Gao Jiu, and they admired Gao Jiu even more in their hearts.

Of course, Jiang Xinshan and his son were also in the crowd. Although Jiang Xiaomei and Gao Jiu did not communicate with each other, they could feel the friendship between them. After a short time together, they appreciated Gao Jiu very much. , are happy for Jiang Xiaomei.

After Wang Zhankui, Jiang Xiaomei and others set off, Gao Jiu moved most of the artillery of the Taohuashan guerrillas, the Eighth Route Army, and the Peace Army to the north of the county seat, because the county seat of Cang County is rectangular, and the east-west direction is long, so it can be used from the north. Artillery attack can easily cover the whole city.

The Seventh Division of the Peace Army has accumulated a lot of wealth. This time, they took out all their shells, plus the shells captured by the Japanese army in the battle, the number is quite considerable.

Gao Jiu personally commanded the artillerymen, and carried out a carpet bombing of the area controlled by the Japanese army in the county.

Lieutenant General Sakai, deputy chief of staff of the North China Dispatch Army, is a lucky one. He escaped unharmed last time in Peach Blossom Mountain.This time, on his way to Cang County, he was intercepted by troops from the Jizhong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army. He failed to arrive at the headquarters of the 132nd Division of the Japanese Army on time, and ended up taking another life.

He really didn't expect that when Gao Jiu's small Taohuashan guerrilla was surrounded by a large army, things suddenly turned around so much. Not only did he fail to eliminate Gao Jiu and others, but the main force of the Japanese 132nd Division was lost More than half of them were surrounded in the county town.

Those hateful seventh divisions of the Peace Army even took refuge in Gao Jiu and others. Such a result is completely unimaginable.From this day on, Sakai completely lost trust in the puppet army.

Sakai received an order from the commander of the North China Dispatch Army, asking him to serve as the commander of the reinforcements and lead the Japanese army in the direction of Beiping to break through the interception of the troops of the Eighth Route Army's Jizhong Military Region and rescue the remnants of the Japanese army besieged in Cang County.

Usually, the troops of the Jizhong Military Region always fight against the Japanese army, and it is very difficult to find them.Unexpectedly, now that they have become elites, they dare to mobilize such a large-scale army to stop the Huang army.

Sakai was so angry that he ordered the troops to launch a fierce attack on the Eighth Route Army.

At the beginning of the battle, Sakai was full of confidence, thinking that the troops of the Eighth Route Army were vulnerable and that they could be defeated with a single charge.How could I have imagined that the Eighth Route Army troops fought so bravely and with proper tactics.They alternately took cover and carried out mobile defensive operations, which caused great losses to the Japanese army. In eight hours, the Japanese army advanced less than 30 miles.

The troops of the Jizhong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army went all out this time.Not only did they receive orders from the superior organization of the underground party, but they were also moved by the bravery and fearlessness of Gao Jiu and others, who sacrificed their lives for the sake of the underground party. They must not let down this rare friend.

The battle is getting bigger and bigger. On the land of Hebei, the enemy and us have used more than 10 troops. The two sides fought desperately on the North China Plain.

The Japanese army trapped in the county seat was ready for street fighting with the anti-Japanese army.Unexpectedly, the anti-Japanese army did not launch a charge at all, but continued to bombard with artillery fire.For a long time, the Japanese army used artillery fire to suppress their opponents, and today they finally tasted the feeling of being bombed by heavy artillery fire.

With a large number of Japanese troops, there was limited room for maneuver in the city, and the violent shelling caused a lot of casualties.

At 6:30 in the evening, the anti-Japanese army outside the city was finally tired and began to eat.The Japanese soldiers in the city were very sad. They entered the city in a hurry and did not take care of them.The people in the city evacuated ahead of time, and they couldn't find a place to grab it, and they couldn't even find a pot if they wanted to drink boiling water.The morale of the Japanese army was very low, so they had to send another telegram to the headquarters of the North China Dispatch Army, hoping that the reinforcements would arrive as soon as possible.

Wang Zhankui, Jiang Xiaomei and others arrived near Cangzhou City and set up an ambush on the road leading to Cang County, preparing to intercept Japanese reinforcements.

They waited until dark, and the Japanese reinforcements did not come out.

It turned out that the Japanese regular army in Cangzhou City had only less than two infantry brigades. They already knew that there were a large number of anti-Japanese troops surrounding Cangxian County.Therefore, they did not act blindly, but urged the Japanese and puppet troops from surrounding counties to gather in Cangzhou City, intending to wait until enough troops were gathered before launching reinforcements to the besieged Japanese troops in Cangzhou County.

According to their past experience, they believed in the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army and believed that they would be able to defend Cangxian County, so the Japanese army was not in a hurry to deploy reinforcements to Cangxian County.

Seeing that the Japanese army did not come out, Wang Zhankui and Jiang Xiaomei had already figured out the Japanese army's intention after discussing it.Therefore, they let Jiang Xiaomei's Eighth Route Army troops stay on the road in case the Japanese army came to reinforce them.Wang Zhankui led the Taohuashan guerrillas into five combat units to attack the various Japanese and puppet troops assembled towards Cangzhou City.

As night fell, Gao Jiu led some members of the Taohuashan guerrillas into the city through the tunnel, preparing to attack the Japanese army at night.

In today's Cangxian County, except for the area controlled by the Taohuashan guerrillas, most of the buildings in other places have been destroyed.The members of the Taohuashan guerrilla climbed onto the roof and formed a condescending posture towards the Japanese army.Everyone is holding a sniper rifle, ready to sniper the Japanese army.

Gao Jiu still adopted the old tactics. He led Tian Chuan, Ning Wen, Ning Wu, Li Xiaoshan and others to sneak attack the enemy with a large number of grenades.

Since Gao Jiu has night vision ability, the darker the sky, the better for him.God is really helpful. Since the light rain yesterday, it has been cloudy until now. In the county town of Cang County, it is basically impossible to see your fingers.

Gao Jiu and others hid behind a wall close to the Japanese army. Gao Jiu picked up a grenade and saw a group of figures shaking about 30 meters away. Gao Jiu knocked the grenade on the wall and threw it away. past.

With a sound of "boom", the group of figures were instantly blown away.

The explosion alarmed the Japanese officers and soldiers. They knew that the Taohuashan guerrillas had launched an attack on them, but they couldn't see the enemy, so they could only blindly shoot fiercely at the area guarded by the guerrillas.

The snipers of the Taohuashan guerrillas had long been waiting for the Japanese army to fight back. They were condescending and could clearly see where the Japanese army was shooting.Everyone opened fire one after another, causing heavy losses to the Japanese army.

Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others followed behind Gao Jiu, passing grenades to Gao Jiu non-stop.Gao Jiu didn't throw grenades blindly. He first aimed at the front, and then gradually moved to the sides, throwing grenades in order.

In 10 minutes, Gao Jiu threw more than 30 grenades and wiped out all the Japanese troops within a radius of 60 meters in front.Then, he led Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others to move forward, and some of the special operations team members also pulled out some people to move forward with Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu and others advanced more than 30 meters, found a cover and stopped, and continued to throw grenades from here.

Gao Jiu and the others are very regular, cleaning up an area every 10 minutes.An hour later, the area controlled by the Taohuashan guerrillas was expanded by a whole block.

The devils died in the hands of Gao Jiu inexplicably. They didn't know where the grenade came from, and they didn't know how to avoid it. The strong fear infected every Japanese officer and soldier. Now they really saw it. The legendary The power of Gao Jiu.

Two hours later, Gao Jiu had thrown 400 grenades, killing at least 500 Japanese soldiers.

The snipers of the Taohuashan guerrillas also killed no less than 500 Japanese soldiers, and they followed Gao Jiu to continuously expand the occupied area.

After throwing so many grenades in a row, most people would have had arm cramps or swelled up, unable to throw them anymore.But Gao Jiu was in good health and didn't feel tired at all. He still kept the rhythm of three grenades per minute and continued to sneak attack on the Japanese army.

As the area controlled by the Taohuashan guerrillas expanded, the area controlled by the Japanese army became smaller and smaller, and the Japanese army became more and more dense. The grenade thrown by Gao Jiu became more and more lethal.

Another hour passed, and the Japanese army couldn't bear such a terrible blow. Before Gao Jiu bombed with a grenade, they automatically retreated.Of course Gao Jiu was not polite, and continued to bomb after chasing the devils.

The devils are powerful in combat and their will to fight is also very tenacious.However, facing the fear of the unknown, their spirits also began to collapse. Many officers and soldiers of the Japanese army could not bear such tremendous pressure, became mentally disturbed, and ran around yelling.Their emotions infected other Japanese officers and soldiers, and everyone didn't know how to fight this battle.

When the captain of the Japanese army who took over the command took over the command, he was very happy, because if he could command the Japanese army to win this battle, he might be promoted to the chief of staff or brigade commander of a certain unit. It is a good time to get promoted and get rich.

After the heavy casualties caused by the heavy shelling, his excitement has basically disappeared.The battle at night was completely beyond his cognition. In this kind of battle where the enemy could not be seen, the Japanese army lost more than [-] people, and the huge casualties caused a heavy blow to him mentally.

Now he no longer has the thought of getting promoted and getting rich, but only thinks about how to survive.

The constant and regular explosions, like hammers, kept hitting the nerves of the Japanese officers and soldiers, and everyone was basically desperate.

The commanders of the Japanese army ran to the regiment leader one after another and asked him for tactical guidance.

The joint captain of the Japanese army didn't know how to fight this battle at all, so how could he guide others?
He was so depressed that he didn't say a word there.

At this time, a captain of the Japanese army said cautiously: "Your Excellency, Captain, I have a suggestion. If I am wrong, please don't blame me, Captain."

The captain had already run out of ideas, and when he heard that someone could offer advice, he cast his hopeful eyes on him.

The captain said: "Your Excellency, the captain, all colleagues, you all know me as a person and know that I am not a person who is greedy for life and fear of death. However, we cannot let our officers and soldiers die in vain like this. Therefore, I suggest, Gao Jiu surrendered."

As the captain of the Japanese army, he had been brewing these words for a long time before mustering up the courage to say them.He was very worried that the captain would be furious, and he was also worried that other colleagues would look down on him.After speaking, he looked at everyone anxiously, ready to bear the anger of everyone.

Unexpectedly, everyone was silent.At this moment, he had confidence, knowing that everyone, like himself, no longer had the confidence to continue fighting.

The captain of the regiment remained silent. He actually wanted to surrender to Gao Jiu, but he was the highest commander here after all, and he was ultimately responsible for it. He had to weigh it carefully.

"Boom, boom, boom", the rhythmic explosion of the grenade gradually moved towards them.This ghostly voice forced the captain to make an early decision.
