Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 66 Fishing in troubled waters
"Since the devil's eyes are on Shuiquan Village, the defenses in other places must be very loose. In this case, we can sneak out of Shuiquan Village under the cover of night, take two devils' strongholds, and completely disrupt the situation in Laiyuan. The devils in Laiyuan City can't understand our strength even more!" Wang Ping continued to suggest.

At this time, Cheng Xiao's eyes also brightened, and he said excitedly: "The more chaotic the situation in Laiyuan is, the more we can fish in troubled waters. With luck, we can still gain a firm foothold in Laiyuan and expand our base to Laiyuan is possible!"

After finishing speaking, he asked Wang Ping: "Battle Commander, a chaotic Laiyuan may bring us too many benefits. If you say how we should fight, I will definitely support you!"

"Go in three steps!" Wang Ping replied with a serious face, and then began to give orders.

"Old Zeng, I will give you the first company. While ensuring the casualties of the troops, seal off Shuiquan Village as long as possible. If it is really impossible, retreat immediately. Of course, don't forget to mobilize the people in Shuiquan Village when you retreat. The people temporarily left the village to take refuge. After the little devils found out that Shuiquan Village did not have the main force of the Eighth Route Army they were looking for, they probably vented their anger on ordinary people."

"As for your retreat destination, here it is!" Wang Ping pointed to a small village called Zhangjiawan on the map and said.

When Cheng Xiao and Zeng Quan looked at the map, they immediately thought of Wang Ping's intention to hide the troops here.

Zhangjiawan is said to be a village, but it is more appropriate to describe it as a temporary gathering point.

In the past, it was a temporary resting place for hunters to hunt in the mountains. Later, a war broke out here. In order to avoid the disaster, several hunters directly moved their homes to the mountains, which formed the current Zhangjiawan.

Because the village is too small and there are very few people.Until now, the official road from Shanwai to Zhangjiawan is just a mountain road.

If it wasn't for the devil's map being too accurate, Zhangjiawan would not be shown on the general map at all.

If the troops hid here, the devil would definitely not think of it.

Not only that, coming out of Zhangjiawan is the official way, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it with the words "advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended".

The troops hide here, as long as there is a fighter plane outside the mountain, the troops can go out of the mountain immediately to fight the devils!

Thinking of this, Zeng Quan immediately replied: "Please rest assured, Battalion Commander, I promise to complete the task!"

Wang Ping turned to Cheng Xiao and said, "Old Cheng, the next step is the second step, to completely disrupt the situation in Laiyuan!"

"I will fight with you separately, and you will take the platoon and all the prisoners and rush to Zhangjiawan first, train the recruits, mobilize the prisoners to join our Eighth Route Army, and guard the equipment and supplies we have seized by the way!"

"In the next battle, the equipment and supplies captured by the troops, as well as the prisoners, and the recruits who are willing to join our Eighth Route Army, I will have them all sent to Zhangjiawan and handed over to you, the instructor!"

"As for me, I took the initiative to attack with all the remaining combat troops of the independent battalion, took down the two strongholds of the Japanese and puppet troops as quickly as possible, and then retreated to Zhangjiawan for repairs before the devils in Laiyuan City could react, waiting for the opportunity to fight! "

Cheng Xiao suddenly proposed: "Battle Commander, I also have an idea, the two strongholds you plan to attack should be farther away. This way the devils will not be able to figure out our strength even more, and the distance from the chaos we want will not be far away. Far!"

Wang Ping nodded affirmatively, "That's what I think!"

"First choose a stronghold in the north of Laiyuan City, then choose a stronghold in the west to attack, and finally circle back here, so that the devils can't figure out our strength and position at all, and become headless chickens!"

Laiyuan City Japanese Army Headquarters, because Ono Dazuo kept a gloomy face and kept quiet, the entire headquarters became more and more depressed.

At this time, the chief of staff hurried over and reported: "Commander, the staff gathered all the information and found that all the soldiers we went to investigate Shuiquan Village disappeared outside Shuiquan Village! I am sure that the main force of the Eighth Route Army who attacked Shuiquan Village is still there." In Shuiquan Village, and a large net has been set up in Shuiquan Village, we are not allowed to go to Shuiquan Village to investigate and find out the true strength of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Yoxi!" A rare smile appeared on Ono's gloomy face.

Chang Song analyzed in one breath: "What I'm most worried about is that the Tuba Road has wiped out our more than 200 imperial soldiers and then slipped away. Since they are still in Shuiquan Village, it will be easy to handle!"

"Chief of Staff, continue to intensify the investigation of Shuiquan Village. We must find out the strength of the Eighth Route Army in Shuiquan Village. Tell our cooperating security forces that no matter who completes the task, the Imperial Army will reward 500 silver dollars! If it is our own, A reward of 1000 silver dollars!"

"Also, order the garrison in the city and all the guards around Shuiquan Village to prepare to send troops immediately. As long as we find out the strength of the Eighth Route Army in Shuiquan Village, we will send troops to destroy them!"

"Hi!" The chief of staff replied with a look of anticipation!

Thirty miles away from Shuiquan Village, the Japanese army stronghold in Wuzhen, because it was too far away from Shuiquan Village, they did not receive the order to send troops to Shuiquan Village.

Although the garrison squad leader really wanted to take his men to Shuiquan Village to make meritorious service, but without orders, he could only stay at the stronghold aggrieved.

But for the puppet troops in the stronghold, not going to Shuiquan Village to fight is their dream result.

As soon as the devils entered the stronghold to rest, they began to congratulate each other that they had escaped another disaster.

Although they were arranged by the devils to patrol outside the stronghold, compared to being cannon fodder for the devils on the battlefield, they are definitely very lucky to be able to guard the stronghold alive.

Because they were in a good mood, the puppet troops also went out of their way to patrol and guard at night.

But no matter how energetic they are, by three or four in the morning, they are also getting tired.

At this time, Wang Ping came.

After five hours of rapid march, the Wuzhen stronghold finally came into Wang Ping's sight.

Although the troops were exhausted, Wang Ping resolutely gave up the idea of ​​letting the troops rest when he saw that there were only three hours left before dawn.

"Guard platoon, block all the entrances and exits of Wuzhen, and then cut off the telephone line from Wuzhen to the county seat. I want to ensure that the news that we have taken down the Japanese army stronghold in Wuzhen will be blocked for at least one day and one night!"

"The third company, go around behind the devil's stronghold to launch an attack, the second company has heavy machine guns, and launches an attack directly from the front, the artillery platoon sets up all three mortars, and fires at the stronghold at the beginning of the attack, destroying all firepower points in the stronghold! "

"I'll give everyone half an hour to prepare. After half an hour, according to my gunshots, attack the stronghold!"
