The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 790 A Different Guerrilla

Gao Jiu, Li Xikun and others drove a truck to the headquarters of the 12th Army of the Japanese Army. They unloaded the tarpaulin on the truck and prepared for shelling. Only then did they realize that the elevation angle of this giant artillery was not so large. The distance is too close, but it can't hit.

So they drove the truck and looked for other locations to shoot.They drove for a long time, but couldn't find a suitable location, because their sight was blocked by the surrounding tall buildings, and they couldn't see the location of the headquarters of the Japanese 12th Army.

Li Kun said: "Master Jiu, this can't be done."

After thinking about it, Gao Jiu said, "It can be done."

He had the truck driven to a corner of the street, which faced an open area of ​​the street, but still could not see the headquarters of the Japanese 12th Army.

Gao Jiu picked up a telephony machine and asked everyone to wait here. He came to the opposite side of the street and climbed up a five-story building. From the top of the building, he could clearly see the headquarters of the Japanese 12th Army. .

Gao Jiu first observed the relevant data of the distance between himself and Li Xikun and others, and then calculated the relevant data from them to the headquarters building of the Japanese 12th Army, calculated the shooting parameters, and notified the mortar through the telephone scale and direction.

Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others adjusted the artillery and reported to Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu said, "Let's fire."

With a bang, the huge shell flew out, drew an arc in the sky, and landed heavily on the top of the Japanese 12th Army Headquarters building.

This kind of mortar is worthy of being called a building demolition expert, and the whole building was blown down when it was shot down.

Gao Jiu reported the adjusted data again, and asked Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others to fire two more shots, blowing up the other two buildings in the 12th Army headquarters compound.

Then he quickly descended the roof, got into the truck and left quickly.

Back at the Military Command Liaison Station, Li Xikun excitedly reported the operation to Xu Zhongming.

Xu Zhongming also couldn't put it down for this kind of giant mortar. He and Li Xikun looked at Gao Jiu eagerly, hoping that Gao Jiu could leave this heavy mortar to them.

Gao Jiu understood what they were thinking, so he gave them the mortar.

It's just that he didn't bring many shells, leaving them with seven shells.

Although there were fewer shells, Xu Zhongming, Li Xikun and others were still very excited.This guy will definitely come in handy at a critical time.

The commander and chief of staff of the 12th Army saw that what General Matsuda said had come true, and all three buildings in the headquarters were bombed and collapsed.Although not many people stayed behind at night, nearly 100 people were lost.

They did not rush back to the headquarters compound to check, but worked in a temporary residence.

The chief of staff called General Matsuda, thanked him on behalf of Commander Dongxiang Yoshino, and asked for his opinion on whether to conduct a city-wide raid in Jinan City to capture Gao Jiu and his group.

General Matsuda said: "Please inform your Excellency, Commander, and suggest that this matter should stop here, and the city-wide raid should not be carried out. According to my estimation, Gao Jiu and the others have already left Jinan City after firing the cannon.

If he hadn't left Jinan City, someone would have provided him with a secret hiding place.Jinan City is too big, it is difficult to find him.

If I say something, you may not like to hear it.It is a good thing that he cannot be found, and if he is found, more people will be lost.Because even if Gao Jiu is found, it is impossible to catch him.If you offend him, you will only be retaliated more severely.

To tell you the truth, I have ordered the special high-level classes of the Gendarmerie Command, as well as the Gendarmerie and Police Stations to stay behind closed doors, so as not to anger Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu is a sensible person. He saw us doing this. If he was still in Jinan City, he would leave the city immediately. "

The chief of staff put down the phone and relayed General Matsuda's opinion.

Dongxiang Yoshino really believed in General Matsuda now, what he said was indeed correct, Gao Jiu did not attack the Japanese military police headquarters.

It seemed that they really saved General Matsuda's face. Since General Matsuda said that Gao Jiu would leave Jinan City soon, they didn't want to make trouble anymore.

Xu Zhongming, Li Xikun and others have long been accustomed to the large-scale raids by the Japanese and puppet troops. They have been operating in Jinan City for so many years, so they naturally have their own way to escape the inspection of the Japanese and puppet troops.

They quickly hid the giant mortar and arranged for Gao Jiu to leave Jinan City.

After Gao Jiu entered Jinan City, Zhang Quan and others were on their way back, seeing the stronghold of the Japanese and puppet army, they couldn't help itching their hands, and fired at the stronghold of the Japanese and puppet army.

That feeling was so cool, a few shots passed, and a stronghold of the Japanese and puppet troops was reimbursed.

As they walked along the way, when they saw barracks or strongholds of the Japanese and puppet troops, they set up mortars and bombarded them.

In this way, they killed at least 800 Japanese and puppet troops along the way.

When Gao Jiu got in touch with them, he told them that this kind of shells could not be replenished for the time being, so that they could use them sparingly.Only then did they stop their attacks on the Japanese and puppet troops.

The Japanese Twelfth Army Headquarters had already formulated a combat plan to attack Southwest Shandong, but such an accident disrupted their plan, so they had to stop temporarily.

They sent a telegram to the base camp again, hoping to send them another batch of giant mortars.

The Japanese devils stopped temporarily, but the attack of the Taohuashan guerrillas had just begun. .

The Second Air Force of the Japanese Army went to bomb the arsenal under Jiang Xiaomei's control, which was tantamount to stabbing a hornet's nest. Gao Jiu must produce a result to satisfy Jiang Xiaomei.

After Gao Jiu and others went to Qingdao, Wang Zhankui and others passed through the defense zone of the Japanese 38th Division. Following Gao Jiu's method of dealing with the Japanese Zhengzhou Airport last time, they not only captured the Japanese airport, but also captured dozens of Japanese aircraft of various types. military aircraft.

They originally wanted to directly attack Zhengzhou City, but after hearing from Gao Jiu that they had obtained the batch of giant mortars, they waited for Gao Jiu to come back and attack Zhengzhou City with these giant mortars.

After the giant artillery was lost, the 38th Division of the Japanese Army also received a notification from the headquarters of the 12th Army.

They learned of the tragedy of the attack on the headquarters of the 12th Army, and they were very glad that they did not provoke Gao Jiu.

I heard that people from the Taohuashan guerrillas appeared near Zhengzhou City, so I hurried to find contacts and sent someone to get in touch with the Taohuashan guerrillas. They said that if the guerrillas attacked Zhengzhou, the 38th Division would never participate in the battle. I hope Gao Jiu Do not target the 38th Division.

Stationed in Zhengzhou City is the Seventh Brigade of the Japanese Army's independent mixed group, and the head of the brigade is a young officer.

Hearing that the Taohuashan guerrillas had destroyed the airport of the Japanese Second Air Force outside the city and were currently wandering outside the city, planning to attack Zhengzhou City, he was very angry and personally led three infantry and artillery battalions out of the city to look for Taohua Mountain guerrilla warfare.

The independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army does not have a unit organization below, and is directly under the four infantry brigades, engineering brigades, field artillery brigades, and heavy brigades. This time, basically the main force has come out.

He received reports that the enemy had fewer than 1000 men, which he believed to be sufficient.

The Japanese army and the Taohuashan guerrillas met in Yemapo outside the city, and the two sides started a field battle.

The army's [-]th independent mixed brigade is a field brigade, and field combat is what they are best at. The brigade leader was very happy when he discovered the traces of the Taohuashan guerrillas that day.

He thought that the Taohuashan guerrillas would fight against them like other guerrillas, and it would be very difficult to catch them.Seeing that the Taohuashan guerrillas had put up a stance in the field, the brigade commander of the Japanese army became excited.He believed that the Taohuashan guerrillas were not worthy of the name in the legend, and the commander was even a little unwise. He dared to fight against his three infantry brigades and one artillery brigade with a force of less than a thousand people.He immediately ordered the ministries to prepare for the attack.

The artillery brigade of the Japanese army set up the Type [-] infantry artillery, ready to bombard the guerrilla positions.

Before they opened fire, the artillery fire from the guerrillas had already hit.The artillery fire was not only very accurate, but also very violent.

The guerrillas now have a large number of military trucks, dragging 102mm howitzers and 122mm cannons, and began shelling the Japanese army more than ten kilometers away.When a row of artillery shells hit, the Japanese artillery position was destroyed, and the Japanese artillery was overturned like a toy amidst the violent explosion.

Fortunately, the Japanese 92-type infantry artillery that was not destroyed ran away and wanted to use artillery fire to fight back against the artillery of the guerrillas. Unfortunately, their range was far out of reach, and they were completely passive.

The brigade commander of the Japanese army was a little confused by the fierce artillery fire, and saw that the artillery position was destroyed.He simply commanded the brigade of the Japanese army and rushed towards the Taohuashan guerrilla position.

As soon as they charged, the artillery of the guerrillas had already covered them, and the Japanese soldiers were beaten on their backs, causing heavy casualties.

The brigade commander of the Japanese army was very angry. Regardless of the casualties of the soldiers, he commanded the troops to rush forward, hoping to get close to the guerrillas to avoid the bombing of the guerrillas.

When they approached the guerrillas' positions, they realized that the crooked machine guns and Type 38 rifles in their hands were not the guerrillas' opponents at all.

The firepower of the guerrillas was too fierce, not to mention the light and heavy machine guns, but the submachine guns in the hands of the guerrillas, and the bullets fired were like torrential rain.There are hardly any dead ends.

How could the Japanese army withstand such a blow?The ones rushing to the front fell one by one, and the others hurriedly lay on the ground.

At this moment, the mortars of the guerrillas came over.There were too many mortars, and swarms of mortar shells fell in the middle of the Japanese army. The Japanese army had nowhere to hide and had to retreat to the position where the attack started.

The brigade leader of the Japanese army was still a little unwilling. He decided to change his tactics and attack with one infantry brigade head-on, while the other two infantry brigades that had been disabled were outflanked from both wings.He hopes to use tactical means to change the disadvantages of weapons.

At this moment, the roar of the plane came from the sky.The brigade commander of the Japanese army was dumbfounded. He knew that the airport of the Second Air Force of the Japanese army had been destroyed, and these planes might also belong to the enemy.

Sure enough, dozens of B-24 Liberator bombers flew over, and a large number of aerial bombs almost turned the ground over.

The brigade commander of the Japanese army was lying on the ground, holding his head in his hands, and was very lucky to escape the catastrophe.

After the explosion, when he checked the casualties of the troops, he discovered that all three infantry brigades were disabled, and on average, each brigade could not even make up the strength of an infantry squadron.

At this moment, the artillery fire from the guerrillas came again. The Japanese army could not bear such a blow. The brigade head took the lead in retreating in the direction of Zhengzhou city.

The infantry fighting vehicles of the Taohuashan guerrillas could not be transported from the Golden Triangle. They were still riding horses here. Even so, their maneuverability far exceeded that of the Japanese army.

The remnants of the Japanese brigade were running, but found that the cavalry of the Taohuashan guerrilla had already appeared in front of them, and their retreat had been cut off.

Soon after, he saw the cavalry of the Taohuashan guerrillas appearing from the rear and on both sides, and they were surrounded.

The head of the brigade of the Japanese army hurriedly led the remnants of the defeated generals, occupied a small hillside, and urgently built a defensive position to resist the attack of the guerrillas.

The Taohuashan guerrillas did not charge the Japanese army at all, they just surrounded the remnants of the Japanese army from a distance.

The command post of the artillery at the front again provided the yardstick and direction for the artillery in the rear.Those large-caliber artillery quickly covered the hillside.

The Japanese army had no place to hide. After the bombardment, the brigade commander of the Japanese army was so lucky that he still survived.He came to check the casualties of the troops again, and found that there were less than 200 troops left.

He had already sent a telegram for help to the 38th Division of the Japanese Army, and the 38th Division of the Japanese Army promised that they would send reinforcements as soon as possible.However, what he didn't know was that his troops never left the barracks at all.

The guerrilla cavalry began to approach, and at a distance of several hundred meters, they stopped again and began to set up mortars.

The brigade commander of the Japanese army knew that he was doomed, sent a farewell telegram to the commander of the 12th Army, and then committed seppuku.

It has to be said that the young generals of the Japanese army were all undead, and the later notorious kamikaze secret service team was also organized by these guys.

The head of the brigade died, and the Japanese army lost its command, making it even more vulnerable.

Some Japanese soldiers wanted to surrender because they had heard that surrendering to the Taohuashan guerrillas was not life-threatening and would send them away.So, a lieutenant of the Japanese army took off his white shirt, picked it up with a bayonet, and prepared to surrender.

Unfortunately, he was a little slow.The guerrilla mortars came in with astonishing density, like plowing, and blasted every inch of the hillock.

The guerrillas saw that there was no movement on the top of the mountain, so they sent people up the mountain to have a look. All the Japanese troops on the mountain had been wiped out.

In this way, the main force of an independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army was wiped out by the powerful firepower of the Taohuashan guerrillas in less than an hour.

Wang Jindong led the main force of the new 187th Division and also came to the battlefield.
