I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 47 Heading to Fangshan Town

Fangshan Town is located in the west of Shanxi Province, in the middle of Luliang Mountain. In the seventh year of the Republic of China, Fangshan Town was changed to Fangshan County.

Due to frequent wars and unstable domestic situation, Fangshan Town has not changed much after it was changed to Fangshan County, so the locals still call it Fangshan Town.The population of Fangshan Town is not large, less than a thousand households. The arrival of the devils made it difficult for Fangshan Town to maintain the peace of the past, and the population decreased a lot.Since the Japanese army occupied Fangshan in 1937, they have been oppressing the people of Fangshan.

After Zhang Dabiao sent scouts to Fangshan Town, he patiently waited for the scouts' reply. Judging from the situation in Fangshan Town, the scouts sent should not be in too much danger.

After borrowing half of the picks from the artillery company, Zhang Dabiao led the soldiers of the first battalion to reclaim the wasteland. He also knew that the daily training of the soldiers should not be affected by the reclaiming of the wasteland.From Liu Gen, Zhang Dabiao knew the arrangement of the artillery company, and the soldiers were rotated to be as fair and just as possible.

Zhang Dabiao naturally knew this too. When he asked the soldiers to reclaim the wasteland, he also carried out rotations, which made the soldiers have no complaints.Many of the fighters are full of expectations. After the reclaimed wasteland is planted with food, they will definitely get a lot of harvest. By that time, their daily meals will also be better.

After being reprimanded by Ding Wei, the new regiment commander, the second battalion commander and the third battalion commander both turned their attention to the first battalion, trying to make their battalion's fighters comparable to the first battalion.After learning about the reclaiming of the wasteland by the first battalion, the commanders of the second and third battalions were not far behind. They found some tools and let the soldiers use their spare time to reclaim the wasteland.

At the same time, after these two days, the Xinyi Regiment also specially sent out some soldiers to help the old people in the village reclaim the wasteland.These selected fighters can get certain rewards. Knowing this, the fighters signed up very enthusiastically and were selected.When helping the old people reclaim the wasteland, the soldiers were also very serious and hardworking, which made the old people in the village quite satisfied.

However, there are many old people in the village, and two days is not enough. After knowing that the soldiers of the new regiment were going to fight, the old village chief expressed his understanding.The only thing that worried the old village chief was that he was very worried that the soldiers of the new regiment would not come back.But after Liu Gen's assurance, the old village head was relieved. The location of their village was good, and it was the most suitable place for the new regiment to station in this area.

Xinghua Village is the name of this village. Xinghua Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and only one side leads to the outside world. It can be said to be quite concealed, which is one of the reasons why Xinyituan was not discovered by the devils.

Going out of Xinghua Village, surrounded by hills, even if devils come, it is difficult to carry heavy weapons, and the new regiment will be much easier to defend.Xinghua Village is less than [-] miles west of Fangshan Town. It is very easy for the new group to reach Fangshan Town.I'm afraid the devils wouldn't have thought that Xinyituan was right under their noses, and it was Li Yunlong who was courageous enough to place Xinyituan in Xinghua Village.

"Genzi, are you interested in going to Fangshan Town with me?" On Sunday, Liu Gen led the soldiers of the artillery company for training, and Zhang Dabiao came to the artillery company.

Liu Gen looked at Zhang Dabiao in surprise, "Brother Zhang, are you going to Fangshan Town? What about the battalion?"

Yesterday, the soldiers of the reconnaissance company who went to Fangshan Town returned to the Xinyi Regiment and found out the situation of Fangshan Town. The camouflage stationed there really relaxed their vigilance and were very lazy.At the same time, the soldiers also found the camp of the puppet army in Fangshan Town and the corresponding defensive facilities.

"I'm going to take part of the soldiers from the first battalion into Fangshan Town, and launch an attack in Fangshan Town at night. We should cooperate from inside and outside to take Fangshan Town."

"I'll just go by myself to be more at ease. The fighters of the first battalion are not weak in combat effectiveness, but I'm not here, and other situations are easy to happen." Zhang Dabiao said in a deep voice.Zhang Dabiao had a fighting spirit in his eyes. He chose to go to Fangshan Town not because he was worried about problems with the soldiers, but because he wanted to go to the front line to fight.

After following Li Yunlong for a long time, Zhang Dabiao was also influenced by Li Yunlong, and would think of leading the soldiers to the front line.

"What about the remaining soldiers of the battalion? Besides, I'm leaving, what about the soldiers of the artillery company?" Liu Gen hesitated. He wanted to visit Fangshan Town, but he was worried about the soldiers of the artillery company.

Zhang Dabiao laughed, because he knew Liu Gen would be like this, "Gen Zi, the artillery company has just been established, it is better not to go, and the artillery company will not play a big role in this battle. Send your artillery company Infantry artillery is not suitable for quick transfer, and infantry artillery can easily attract the attention of Linxian devils and puppet troops."

"The head of the regiment said that we must prevent the identity of our new regiment from being leaked, otherwise it will easily attract the devils to encircle and suppress them again."

Liu Gen nodded, he understood, and he didn't have any objection to this arrangement.The artillery company has a certain combat effectiveness, but the artillery company can't play a big role in the night battle. What's more, once Fangshan Town is bombarded, it will be difficult to lure the rotating puppet army into Fangshan Town.

The Type [-] infantry artillery is easy to move, but it is surrounded by hilly areas, and with artillery batteries, it will undoubtedly affect the speed of marching.

"Then I'll go to Fangshan Town with Brother Zhang and see what's going on in Fangshan Town." Liu Gen said solemnly.

Zhang Dabiao nodded in satisfaction, "I knew you would go with me, you talk to the soldiers of the artillery company, and meet at the entrance of the village in half an hour."

Watching Zhang Dabiao leave, Liu Gen returned to the training ground of the artillery company, and could see that these soldiers were concentrating on training.The training was very boring and tiring, but none of the fighters complained of suffering, they have been working hard and persevering.

"clap clap"

"Soldiers, take a break, let me tell you something." Liu Gen clapped his hands and told the soldiers to stop training.

The soldiers of the artillery company stopped, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and under Liu Gen's gesture, each filled a large bowl of cold boiled water and drank it.After training, the soldiers are already very satisfied after drinking a bowl of boiled water.

"Battalion Commander Zhang came to me just now and told me about our regiment's battle plan. This time the battle needs to end the battle quickly, so as not to cause too much impact and alarm the devils in Lin County. That is to say, this battle, without us What about the artillery company? I know what everyone may think, but the regiment headquarters has made a decision, and we can't change it!"

"The only thing everyone can do is to continue to train hard. When our artillery company is used, let the devils taste the power of our artillery company. The training for these two days will be in charge of the first squad leader. I need to go to the square with Zhang Battalion Commander. Shanzhen, maybe we can bring back some good things for everyone." In front of the soldiers, Liu Gen looked serious.

The soldiers were a little bit unwilling, but there was nothing they could do. What the regiment decided was not something they could change.As for Liu Gen's going to Fangshan Town, the soldiers did not have any objections. During the training, the soldiers all knew that Liu Gen, the company commander, worked hard, but he was much better than them.

After arranging the affairs of the artillery company, Liu Gen checked his equipment and walked towards the entrance of the village.

　ps: Thank you for the reward from io after a long time. I may not be able to write the remaining chapter today, because I need to check the terrain around Fangshan and the forces that existed at that time.If there is no one today, I will make it up tomorrow, sorry.

　　In addition, according to records, Fangshan should be a county at that time, but I wrote it as a town, I am sorry for that.When I checked the information before, I looked at the map with Fangshan marked on it, so I mistakenly thought it was a town. When I checked the information next, I will be more serious.
