I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 48 Gedonggou Mountain
When he came to the entrance of the village, Liu Gen found that Zhang Dabiao and others hadn't come yet. Looking around, he saw soldiers who were reclaiming wasteland.

The soldiers who have a goal are working very hard. After the training, the soldiers will work hard to reclaim some wasteland. In just two days, the wasteland around the village has been reclaimed.However, the wasteland reclaimed is not that much, there are many wastelands, and the wasteland reclaimed by the soldiers should be less than one-tenth.

Thinking of the existence of Taiyuan Airport, Liu Gen frowned slightly. He was a little worried that the devils would send out a reconnaissance plane and find something abnormal in Xinghua Village.

There are a large number of devil fighter planes in Taiyuan Airport, among which there are elite troops stationed by devils, and there are several devils' airports in Shanxi.In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the raid on Yangmingbao successfully destroyed 24 fighter planes at Yangmingbao Airport and weakened the devil's air force.

And after the Yangmingbao incident, the devils also became smarter. They established multiple airports in Shanxi, and the air force is extremely powerful.

Facing the threat from the devils in the air, the Eighth Route Army had no weapons capable of dealing with the fighters, which led to the fact that when the devils fighters arrived, the Eighth Route Army could only be passively beaten.Liu Gen wondered whether he should suggest to Ding Wei, the head of the regiment, to try to take away one of the devil's airports, but he was not very clear about the distribution of the devil's airports in Shanxi Province.

Another most important point is that the 129th regiment of the 769th division attacked Yangmingbao.The devil's protection of the airport has been extreme. It is undoubtedly quite difficult to successfully replicate the record achieved in the night attack on Yangming Fort.

"Genzi, what are you thinking?" Zhang Dabiao's voice sounded, and at some point he came to Liu Gen's side.

Liu Gen shook his head. He couldn't say that he wanted to kill the devil's airport. If he said that, Zhang Dabiao might think he was crazy.You know, even Li Yunlong didn't think about taking away the devil's airport in the past. The devil's airport defense is quite strong, almost to the extreme. Just a new regiment may not be able to break through the defense of the devil's airport.

"It's nothing, shall we go now?" Liu Gen asked.

The soldiers brought out by Zhang Dabiao were not many, and they all changed into the clothes of the masses, with many patches on them.Noticing this, Liu Gen realized what he had overlooked. He is still wearing a military uniform, so he can't enter Fangshan Town wearing such clothes, right?

"Here, put it on, I knew you might not have thought of it." Noticing Liu Gen's gaze, Zhang Dabiao took out the prepared clothes and said with a smile.

Liu Gen accepted it gratefully, and quickly changed his military uniform, "Brother Zhang, shall we just go in like this? What about the weapons?"

"Don't worry, we have already prepared it. This is the burden of preparation. You carry some debris on your back. Give me your pistol, and I will hide it for you." Zhang Dabiao said with a smile.

Seeing Zhang Dabiao wrapping the pistol and putting it under a dung truck, Liu Gen was stunned. Zhang Dabiao's experience is probably too rich.Looking at the hidden opening on the dung truck, Liu Gen felt a little bit moved by Zhang Dabiao's preparation. If it was him, he might not have thought of such a way.

"There is a compartment in the dung truck, so you don't have to worry about problems with the pistol." Zhang Dabiao explained to Liu Gen.

Liu Gen nodded. He could think of this and hide the weapon, so it should be much easier to enter Fangshan Town.Those puppet soldiers would not be interested in checking the dung truck, the smell on it could drive many people back.

"When we arrive at Fangshan Town, we will enter in batches and gather at the Gedong Hotel." Zhang Dabiao said.

Gedong is a small village. Fangshan Town is centered on Gedong Village. After Fangshan Town was changed into a county, Gedong Village was incorporated into it, and it became the center of Fangshan Town.The puppet troops also concentrated in the area of ​​Gedong Village. Who made the Gedong Hotel the largest restaurant in Fangshan Town?The puppet army also wanted to enjoy it when they were stationed in Fangshan Town. The area where Gedong Village was originally located naturally became the camp where the puppet army was stationed.

Fangshan Town is not that big, but the puppet army is scattered in Fangshan Town, and it will still be a little troublesome to deal with. The only thing to be thankful for is that the puppet army did not maintain enough vigilance in Fangshan Town.In most areas of Fangshan Town, the puppet army only left one or two soldiers on guard.

"Check your belongings. We are going to pass through Gedonggou Mountain. At around [-] o'clock in the afternoon, the regiment leader will also set off with three battalions of soldiers. They will temporarily hide in Gedonggou Mountain, waiting Our signal." Zhang Dabiao looked serious, this time the action cannot fail.

"Gedonggou Mountain? Can it accommodate so many people from our regiment? Once it is discovered, it will be terrible." Liu Gen asked with some doubts.

Zhang Dabiao laughed, "Genzi, don't worry, the soldiers of the reconnaissance company have investigated here. According to the local people, Gedonggou Mountain was the place where the Yang family stationed troops in the Song Dynasty. It is enough to put down our soldiers from one regiment. "

"That's it, then there should be no big problem." Liu Gen nodded, feeling a lot relieved.

After the inspection, Liu Gen and others chose to set off. They needed to arrive at Fangshan Town as soon as possible to prepare for the night's battle.Liu Gen was a little excited, he didn't have much fear in his heart, and he even looked forward to the battle that would come at night.Liu Gen and the others didn't bring many things, and the baggage on their bodies contained some sundries, and the soldiers' weapons were all packed in dung carts.

I don't know how Zhang Dabiao did it. When the dung truck was moving forward, the weapons hidden in it didn't make the slightest sound, which surprised Liu Gen.Along the way, Liu Gen and others took turns pushing the dung truck forward. It took two hours for Liu Gen and others to arrive at Fangshan Town.

Looking at Fangshan Town not far away, Liu Gen can see that the surrounding terrain is elevated from west to east, forming a trend of high east and low west. There are mountains on both sides of Fangshan Town, with a Beichuan River in the middle.Most of the people in the town live along the Beichuan River, which means that the land on both sides of the Beichuan River is fertile, wide and flat.

In Gedonggou Mountain, Liu Gen could see that the mountain was densely covered with ravines, which provided good terrain conditions for the new group of soldiers to hide.

Fangshan Town has no city walls, which means that it can be entered from any direction in the town. There is a simple wooden bridge over the Beichuan River, allowing residents on both sides of the Beichuan River to come and go.

"Each choose a direction. After entering the town, don't cause trouble and gather at the Gedong Hotel." Zhang Dabiao ordered.

Liu Gen nodded, and led a soldier towards Fangshan Town along the Beichuan River. The two of them were not moving fast, constantly remembering the surrounding environment and preparing for the night's battle.
