Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 167 Picking up a heavy artillery company for nothing
After the battle, Wu Qin's third regiment did not continue to march in a hurry, but stayed in Xiaozhangzhuang for a little repair.

At noon on July [-], the rear troops who received the order gathered near Xiaozhangzhuang one after another.

After everyone arrived, Zhou Weihan directly held a battle meeting.

"I just received a telegram from the headquarters in the morning, ordering all the units of the Eighth Route Army participating in this battle to seize the big and let go of the small, and quickly encircle and wipe out the main forces of Shiyou's three units!" Zhou Weihan said to the crowd.

"Detachment Captain, is this a new situation?" Xing Zhiguo was the first to ask questions after hearing this.

"Lao Jiang doesn't stop. There is a change in the central army in Tainan. Zhu Huaibing's Ninety-seventh Army stationed in northern Henan has marched into Cixian, Wu'an, Shexian, and Linxian areas, intending to attack our Tainan base area. At the same time According to reliable information, Lao Jiang plans to mobilize the [-]st Army and [-]st Army south of the Yellow River to quickly march towards Tainan."

After Zhou Weihan finished speaking, the faces of all the people present were heavy, and Lao Jiang had spent a lot of money.

"The flames of war are at the door of my house. Have you notified Li Daben's garrison?" Zhao Gang asked eagerly.

"I have asked Li Daben to withdraw the garrison regiment, county brigade, and militia in Wu'an to Wuyi, shrink the troops, and wait for the arrival of the main force! At the same time, according to the instructions of the superior, in order to avoid conflict with the [-]th Army, Ciwu The local armed forces in several counties in Lin also retreated towards Wuyi!" Zhou Weihan said.

"Looking at it this way, the war in Southern Ji must end as soon as possible!" Zhao Gang said.

"Don't worry too much. The troops of the national army have always been slow to move, and the effect of uploading and dispatching is far inferior to ours. The [-]st Army and the [-]st Army can reach Tainan in three to five days, not to mention crossing the Yellow River. , we still have some time to spare!" Zhou Weihan said optimistically.

In order to eliminate the Eighth Route Army in Tainan, which has become a confidant, Lao Jiang held a special combat meeting. As a result, the meeting had just ended, and the content of the meeting was in our hands. At this time, the participating army commanders may not have time to rush back to the front from the rear. What about the troops!
"How's the situation in the rear?" Zhou Weihan asked.

"All I met were small groups of enemy troops. The largest company didn't even have a company. Before I came here, I counted nearly 1500 prisoners. The prisoners are currently handed over to a storage team composed of several county brigades. Since the enemy army has not formed Resist, the casualties of each regiment are minimal!" Zhao Gang said.

"Then use Xiaozhangzhuang as the rear base, and all the prisoners will be detained on the spot, and all the wounded will be left behind, so that the military doctors can treat them as soon as possible. Wu Qin, your first battalion will stay and be responsible for the safety of Xiaozhangzhuang!"

"The tactics are still the same, Dong Jiang, your reconnaissance company will go first, Zhu Dashan's cavalry company will attack everywhere, and will be responsible for driving the enemy southward. Little one, don't love to fight. Artillery battalion and guard company move together with the headquarters!" Zhou Weihan ordered.

"A lot of weapons and equipment were seized earlier, and the regiment leaders asked Wu Qin to replenish ammunition and equipment. Before two o'clock, all the ministries were ready and set off on time!"

"Yes" everyone replied.

The words are divided into two parts, the morning of July [-]th.

The 115th Division Independent Brigade was east of Wei County, at the junction of Qinghe County and Linxi County, and met Shi You's three military headquarters and the Secret Service Brigade unexpectedly. The two sides exchanged fire for three hours. Under the blocking attack, he fled westward with the remnants.

At the same time, in the north-central part of Beiwei County, Shi Yousan left behind the provisional third division, which had suffered heavy casualties in previous battles. It fought with the central column of our army for several hours, and most of them were eaten , only the division commander Mi Wenhe led the remnants southward to escape.

When Sun Liangcheng met with Shi Yousan before, due to different opinions on breaking out, he led only a thousand remnants to flee to the northeast, broke through the armed resistance of a certain place in the Southern Hebei Military Region, and then artificially swam in the northeast of Qinghe County, and successfully arrived at Xiajin County in the northwest of Shandong .

So far, Shi Yousan's remnants have been surrounded by our army between Shuangma Town and Dongshan Town in the south-central part of Wei County.

Wei County is more than 130 miles long from north to south, and more than 60 miles wide from east to west. Shiyou Sanbu has enough depth here, which is why it can flee back and forth.

Dong Jiang's reconnaissance company was resting in a green gauze tent at this time.

"Company commander, we've been wandering around here for almost two hours, and we haven't found anything!" A soldier of the reconnaissance company complained.

"Hey, if we catch up with all the good things, why do we need brother troops? Wait, now that the encirclement is getting smaller and smaller, Shi Yousan will miss the truth sooner or later! I reckon Shi Yousan is also here, It's just that we didn't find out!" Dong Jiang said calmly.

"Company commander, there is a situation. Two military trucks passed by not far from the north! The green gauze tent is blocking it, and I can only see the roof!" A soldier reported.

"Look, isn't this coming to live? Go, have a look!"

Dong Jiang excitedly led people to the place where the military truck passed by just now.

"Company commander, look at the wheel marks, the truck seems to be pulling the cannon!"

"Damn it, our luck is too good, we got rich this time."

The tire marks of military trucks were very deep. Dong Jiang and others followed the marks all the way to the west, and soon found the enemy at the foot of a mountain.

Dong Jiang immediately led a few people to investigate, and they were lying in a bush.

The one tracked by Dong Jiang and others was the heavy artillery company of the 105th Army, which had two Krupp [-] artillery pieces under its jurisdiction. Lao Jiang gave him three times in order to win over his friends.

The enemy's heavy artillery company was resting at the foot of the mountain. Two trucks were pulling the cannons with shells on them. The soldiers of the heavy artillery company ran behind the trucks.

"Company commander, this group of enemy troops are too arrogant, they dare to light a fire and cook in an open and aboveboard manner, we really don't exist!"

"Company commander, what kind of cannon is this? Why is it so big!" The soldier on the side exclaimed.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is a Krupp 105 artillery, which is also a rare item in the Central Army. I didn't expect Shi Yousan to have two. Stop talking nonsense, withdraw, and you can still eat hot food if you move quickly!" Dong Jiang said.

"It stands to reason that these two heavy artillery should have accompanying guards. Why are there only so few people? Isn't this letting us pick up a heavy artillery battery for nothing!"

After Dong Jiang brought his people back, he directly summoned everyone to issue combat orders.

"The number of enemy troops should not exceed a hundred. It seems that they have just traveled a long distance, and they haven't even set up a guard post!"

"The north side of the location is a hill, and the south side is a large green gauze tent. Thief Nine, you and the sniper team will snipe from the hill on the north side. Anyone who dares to resist will be attacked.
Others enter the green gauze tent, then outflank the left and right, and quickly deal with the enemy. In order to prevent the shells from exploding, they should be careful when shooting. "

at the foot of the mountain.

Two trucks pulled the artillery aside, and the rest of the soldiers of the [-]th Army Heavy Artillery Company gathered together and were lighting a fire and cooking, not aware of the approaching danger at all.

"Damn it, I'm exhausted. People are chasing trucks, and my legs are still shaking! When will we run with our own legs!" A man lay on the ground with his legs crossed.

"Who told the army to allocate the trucks that originally belonged to our artillery company to the secret service brigade? I really thought we were the Eighth Route Army, and everyone had iron feet!"

Dong Jiang and others were lurking in the green gauze tent on the opposite side. On the opposite hill, Thief Nine and the soldiers of the sniper team had already selected their positions.

Seeing this, Dong Jiang directly led the soldiers of the reconnaissance company to outflank it from the left and right sides in two batches.

The distance of forty or fifty meters is reached in an instant.

"Crack, crack!" Gunshots rang out, and more than a dozen enemy soldiers who were standing and cooking were knocked down, and the rest of the enemy soldiers lying on the ground were surrounded by Dong Jiang and others.

Seeing that the enemy army was surrounded by his own side without any reaction, Dong Jiang couldn't help laughing: "Everyone be obedient and don't move, be honest!"
