The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 745 It's All Yours
According to Gao Jiu's request, the two county brigades set up ambushes on both sides of the road, while Gao Jiu and the others continued to move forward and came to the bottom of the hillside.

Both sides of the road here are bare, and there is no suitable location for an ambush nearby.

Gao Jiu pointed to both sides of the road and said, "Look at this side, 130 meters away, isn't there a lot of bushes there? Our men and horses can lie in ambush behind that. Look again, there are 150 meters away on this side of the road. Isn’t there a small slope outside? Our people can ambush behind that slope.”

The leaders of the military sub-division saw that Gao Jiu just glanced over there, and he was able to tell such an accurate distance, and they didn't know how he did it.

They were a little skeptical. After hearing Gao Jiu's words, the two staff members immediately ran to both sides to check the terrain.

They came back soon after, and a staff officer couldn't help but said: "Master Jiu is really amazing. I measured my steps while running just now, and it's really 130 meters there. It's really amazing."

Another combat staff officer actually measured it secretly, and he also admired it very much.

He said: "Commanders, I have already seen it, and our troops can be ambushed behind."

The matter was settled in this way. The chiefs of the Third Army Division commanded the troops of the First Regiment and set up ambushes on both sides of the hillside.Gao Jiu and the chiefs of the Third Army Division commanded together. Wang Zhankui and Du Shengxi led the Taohuashan guerrillas to ambush behind a hillside three kilometers away. After the battle started, they attacked the enemy from the side and rear.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Yang Wen led the officers and soldiers of the second regiment and three county brigades to launch a feint attack on Changdong County.

The progress of the battle was almost exactly as Gao Jiu expected.

After the Japanese and puppet troops in Changdong County were attacked, they saw a large number of anti-Japanese troops outside the city, so they asked their superiors for help.

The Japanese army dispatched an infantry brigade from Huanbei County to rush to help.

When the Japanese army arrived at the preset position of the Eighth Route Army, they indeed sent out vanguard troops to search.

The members of the county brigade ambushing there lacked combat experience. Seeing the Japanese army searching, they opened fire first.

The Japanese army had been prepared for a long time, and they immediately divided into two teams and launched an attack on the two county brigades lying in ambush there.

After fighting for a while, the members of the county brigade retreated when they saw the fierce Japanese attack.

After the Japanese army drove away the ambushing county brigade, they only sent a small number of troops to monitor them, and the large troops quickly assembled and continued to rush to Changdong County.

Seeing that the Japanese brigade was about to run out of this hilly area, they never dreamed that there was a sudden violent explosion on the road, and then a large number of Eighth Route Army soldiers appeared on both sides of the road, violently attacking the Japanese army on the road. open fire.

The captain of the Japanese army was already killed when the explosion occurred. The sudden blow caused the loss of nearly half of the Japanese army in an instant, and the Japanese army lost its command for a while.

The officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army carried limited ammunition. After a burst of firepower, they immediately jumped out of the position and charged the Japanese army with shouts.

The distance of more than 100 meters was approaching in an instant. Before the Japanese army could organize an effective resistance, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army rushed onto the road and started hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army.

In the second half of the Japanese marching brigade, a squadron leader of the Japanese army retreated along the original road, seized a hillside, and used firepower to cover other Japanese troops to approach them.

The Eighth Route Army was very experienced in combat, and they could not disengage from the Japanese army, otherwise they would be hit by Japanese firepower, so they violently pursued the retreating Japanese army.

At the beginning, the squadron leader of the Japanese army saw that his men were mixed with the Eighth Route Army, and was worried that he would injure his own men by shooting. They opened fire on the crowd running towards them, and the officers and soldiers of the Japanese Army and the Eighth Route Army were shot and fell down one after another.

The officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army suffered heavy casualties, so they had to lie on the ground and fight back against the Japanese army.Due to the unfavorable terrain, the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were exposed to enemy fire, and casualties continued to increase.

At this moment, violent gunshots rang out from behind the Japanese army, and members of the Taohuashan guerrilla armed with machine guns and submachine guns rushed towards the Japanese army, causing heavy casualties.

The squadron leader of the Japanese army hastily dispatched part of his troops to block the attack of the Taohuashan guerrillas.

Several Japanese soldiers set up a Type 92 heavy machine gun, and just about to fire, a special operator used an 82mm recoilless gun to blow up the Devil's Type 92 heavy machine gun together with the soldiers.

The guerrillas suppressed the Japanese army with firepower, beating them so hard that they couldn't hold their heads up.

Some guerrillas threw grenades at the Japanese army continuously, and wiped out most of the Japanese troops who blocked them. Then they rushed up and wiped out all the remaining Japanese troops.

The guerrillas rushed to the position of the Japanese army and launched a fierce fire attack on the Japanese army who were shooting at the Eighth Route Army.

The Japanese army could not bear such a blow, they finally collapsed and fled in panic.

Seeing this situation, the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army immediately got up from the ground and rushed up with shining bayonets.

Ten minutes later, the battle was completely over, and a Japanese infantry brigade of 875 people was completely annihilated.

Seeing the corpses of the Japanese soldiers all over the place, the officers and soldiers of the Third Army Division raised their rifles high and burst into loud cheers.

The leaders of the Third Military Division were very happy. They had never achieved the record of annihilating more than one squadron of the Japanese Army before. After Gao Jiu and others came, the Third Military Division actually wiped out two Japanese infantry brigades in a row. They were all very excited and cheered together with the soldiers.

The morale of the officers and soldiers of the Third Army Division was high. They picked up the weapons and ammunition left by the Japanese army, assembled, and went to Changdong County with the Taohuashan guerrillas.

Yang Wen, the head of the second regiment, led the officers and soldiers of the second regiment, and soldiers from the three county brigades to besiege the county seat. When he saw the Taohuashan guerrillas and the officers and soldiers of the first regiment rushing over, he knew that they must have been wiped out. The reinforcements of the Japanese army couldn't help cheering.

After the Taohuashan guerrillas and the officers and soldiers of the first regiment arrived, they strengthened the siege of Changdong County, and then launched an attack on the county.

Gao Jiu commanded the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army to attack the county from three sides to contain the Japanese troops.He led the Taohuashan guerrillas to attack the city wall from the south.

The leaders of the Third Army Division saw the Taohuashan guerrillas set up mortars and bombarded the walls of the Japanese army.Their shells were shot very accurately, almost all of them fell on the city wall, and many Japanese and puppet troops could be seen flying off the city wall.

Immediately afterwards, the guerrillas blocked the city wall with machine gun fire, and the bazooka hand and the 82mm recoilless gunner carried out precise strikes on the firepower points on the city wall.

Gao Jiu personally led a detachment of guerrillas to rush under the city wall. They threw another row of grenades towards the top of the city wall, then threw flying claws towards the city wall, and quickly climbed up.

After Gao Jiu and the others got on the city wall, they immediately set up their machine guns and fired at both ends of the city wall. They quickly controlled a long section of the city wall, and other guerrillas quickly climbed up.

It took less than 10 minutes for the guerrillas to attack until they all climbed the city wall.

The leaders of the third military division were all stunned. They recovered and ordered the soldiers to rush over as well.

With the help of the guerrillas, the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army climbed up the city wall continuously, and followed the members of the Taohuashan guerrillas into the city.

Soon after, the gates of the city were opened, and members of the Eighth Route Army and the county brigade outside the city rushed into the city with shouts.

The Japanese and puppet troops guarding the other city walls saw the anti-Japanese army entering the city and knew that the county could not be defended. They panicked and fled in all directions.

Thousands of members of the Eighth Route Army and the county brigade rushed into the city, chasing and annihilating the remnants of the enemy.

There was a squadron of devils guarding the Japanese material depot, and the Japanese gendarmerie also fled in. Including the staff in the depot, there were more than [-] Japanese soldiers in the material depot.Relying on the wall of the military station, they blocked the attack of the Eighth Route Army.

Gao Jiu led the Taohuashan guerrillas to rush over. Without saying a word, they picked up the rocket launcher and 82mm recoilless gun and blasted at the Japanese army.

The walls of the military depot were blown down in pieces, and the officers and soldiers of the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties.

The special forces members used 82mm recoilless guns and rocket launchers to continue to attack the walls in other areas. Gao Jiu led the Taohuashan guerrillas to rush through the gap opened.

They came to a distance of more than 30 meters from the gap, threw a row of grenades into it, and rushed in quickly with the smoke and dust generated by the explosion.

The officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army followed closely behind and also rushed into the Japanese army's material depot.

The members of the Taohuashan guerrilla team are very experienced in combat. They use the various shelters inside to suppress the enemy's firepower with submachine guns and machine guns, and then use rocket launchers and 82mm recoilless guns to attack every Japanese army they see. firepower.

On the opposite roof, several Japanese soldiers were strafing with two machine guns. A rocket flew over and knocked them off the roof.

Several Japanese soldiers extended their rifles from a window and opened fire on the guerrillas.

An 82mm recoilless shell hit the inside of the window, blowing them out of the window.

As the firepower of the Japanese army was blown up one by one, the resistance became weaker and weaker.

The battle continued for more than 20 minutes, and all the Japanese troops in the material depot were wiped out.

Surrounded by soldiers, the leaders of the underground party and the chiefs of the third military division came to the warehouse area of ​​the Japanese army, and saw two rows of six large warehouses inside.

They came to a warehouse and saw the huge lock on it. An Eighth Route Army soldier stepped forward and smashed it with the butt of his gun. Seeing that it didn't work, he fired several shots at the lock and finally broke the lock. head.

When the soldiers pushed open the door of the warehouse, the leaders of the underground party and the leaders of the Third Military Division saw that there were countless large boxes in the warehouse, neatly stacked, and they knew that there were weapons and ammunition inside without looking. .Because they have seen a large row of mortars neatly placed under these large boxes.

The soldiers opened the box, and sure enough, there were bundles of rifles inside, and other boxes contained machine guns, pistols, and a lot of bullets.

"Get rich, get rich."

Although before the war, the chiefs of the military sub-districts were all looking forward to making a fortune, they did not expect that there were so many weapons and ammunition in the warehouse.

At this time, other warehouses were also opened, and officers and soldiers ran over to report their findings to the leaders of the military division.

These warehouses store a large amount of various materials. It can be said that these materials are many times richer than the wealth accumulated by the Third Military Division over the years.

The leaders of the Third Military Sub-division were all smiling, and the eyes of the officers and soldiers were also narrowed.

The person in charge of the underground party was also very happy, but he knew that they could not make decisions about the distribution of these materials, so he first asked Gao Jiu and the Taohuashan guerrillas for their opinions.

At this time, Gao Jiu, Wang Zhankui, Li Chengwu and others walked over.

The leaders of the underground party and the leaders of the military sub-district rushed to greet him,

The person in charge of the underground party said: "Mr. Gao, we have seized so much material, how do you think it should be distributed?"

The leaders of the Third Military Division also looked at Gao Jiu eagerly, their eyes full of eagerness.

Gao Jiu and the special forces members of Taohuashan didn't like these Japanese-style equipment at all.

Gao Jiu said, "All these supplies belong to you."

"really?"

The head of the underground party and the chiefs of the Third Military Division were overjoyed and asked in disbelief.

Wang Zhankui smiled and said, "When did my ninth master say something that didn't count? All these things belong to you."

"Thank you so much."

The leaders of the underground party and the leaders of the military division all smiled happily, and expressed their gratitude to Gao Jiu and others.

At dinner, the leaders of the underground party and the chiefs of the Third Army Division set up a banquet for Gao Jiu and the others and the members of the Taohuashan guerrillas.

At the banquet, the person in charge of the underground party, on behalf of the leaders of the Third Army Division, took out a gift list and said, "Mr. Gao, thank you and the members of the Taohuashan guerrillas for your great help to the underground party. All the property we seized in this county will be given to you as a token of our gratitude."

Gao Jiu took the gift list and saw that it said: "40 large yellow croakers, 100 small yellow croakers, and 20 yuan now."

Gao Jiu was very satisfied with the sincerity of the underground party, so he was not polite, so he asked Jia Liu to put it away.

The leaders of the underground party and the military sub-district felt a little more at ease when they saw Gao Jiu accept the gift. Everyone was very happy and toasted Gao Jiu one after another.

The person in charge of the underground party said: "Mr. Gao, the Japanese army has suffered such a big loss, and I am afraid they will retaliate. See if you can lead the officers and soldiers of the third military division to fight again, completely smashing the Japanese army and launching a big raid." attempt."
