Chapter 367: Support Arrived
On Taihang Mountain, Liao Fan glanced at the sky, and then glanced at the watch in his hand by the light of the fire, there were still about two hours before dawn, but these people surrounded by them did not make the slightest move, Liao Fan was determined not to continue to wait.
"Enough time for you to think!"
After saying that, Liao Fan took two steps back, and then made a gesture. The soldiers from the fourth regiment began to move forward step by step, constantly compressing the encirclement. No one fired a shot, and Liao Fan certainly couldn't give the order for the soldiers to shoot.
Although the common people will not die under the guns of their own soldiers when they take such actions, it is very likely that they will die under the guns of the spies, in short, the spies will not easily leave Taihang Mountain alive.
The soldiers were getting closer and closer to the human wall composed of ordinary people, and some of the people in the human wall began to be agitated, and the originally peaceful scene gradually appeared chaotic, and the spies kept pulling the panicked people in front of them.
"Bang!"
A gunshot finally broke the silence of Taihang Mountain, and flames erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and a man dressed in ordinary people's clothes fell in a pool of blood.
"Get down!" Liao Fan yelled, not lying down but lying down, of course Liao Fan said it to the people.
However, under Liao Fan's order, in addition to the ordinary people lying down, of course, there were also their own soldiers, but the spies still held guns in their hands and half squatted and half standing.
"Commander Liao, we ......," a spy shouted.
However, before he finished speaking, the gunfire was loud, and more than a dozen spies who were originally hiding behind the people were killed by the soldiers, looking at the messy scene, Liao Fan ordered a ceasefire. The common people were afraid to move on the ground, some of them were shaking, some were crying, and some were excited......
A gust of mountain wind blew, and the rich smell of blood entered the lungs from Liao Fan's nose, and when the first gunshot rang out, Liao Fan had already guessed what the spies were going to do, but most of the soldiers brought by Liao Fan from the Fourth Regiment were recruits, they had never been on the battlefield, they had no combat experience, and it was obvious that Liao Fan had no time to stop it at the last moment.
"Take them all back, keep them strictly guarded, and no one can be let go without my orders." Things have happened, and Liao Fan is powerless to change the ending.
Under Liao Fan's order, Lao Si escorted away all the ordinary people present who had not yet reacted. A few minutes later, only the soldiers of the guard squad were left by Liao Fan's side.
Lu Liming looked at the corpse on the ground, and he didn't react to what was going on when the gunshot rang out at first. It wasn't until Liao Fan shouted to lie down that he understood that under the tight pressure of their troops, the last mental defense of the spies had been crushed, and when the gunshot rang out, it was a Japanese who fell.
Lu Liming walked to Liao Fan's side and nodded at Liao Fan, no need to speak, Liao Fan also understood that Lu Liming had fully confirmed that the first person to fall was a Japanese, but those spies were all killed by the soldiers under his command.
"Die or die, and let the soldiers burn all these corpses at dawn."
Liao Fan shook his head helplessly and said that he didn't pity these spies who were about to lay down their weapons, but felt a little sorry, because the living spies must be willing to take the initiative to confess everything they knew, but the dead spies had no value in the end except for turning into ashes.
"Brother Fan, the ...... in the army" Lu Liming reminded in a low voice, there were only soldiers from the guard class here, and he was not afraid to leak this matter.
"I know about this matter, let Yan Xuelin check it out after I go back, the situation in Beitai Peak has stabilized, and there is no need for us to stay any longer."
After saying that, Liao Fan returned to the headquarters, tossed all night, and the troops guarding the mountain pass also suffered casualties, Liao Fan's main purpose in coming to Beitai Peak was to stop the action of the spies, at least the thing was done successfully. After returning to the headquarters, Liao Fan fell asleep.
……
"Huh~ Why is the little devil denatured, why didn't he attack this morning?"
When Ma Wanzhong woke up at the headquarters of Pingding County, the sun had already risen, and he was busy arranging the troops in the past two days, and he had no time to rest at all.
However, the sun was so high this morning, but there was no gunfire in Pingding County, which made Ma Wanzhong feel very uncomfortable.
"What's going on with the Signal Soldiers?" Ma Wanzhong shouted loudly outside the headquarters.
A communications soldier ran into the headquarters to salute Ma Wanzhong, of course he didn't know what Ma Wanzhong was asking, and looked at his regiment commander with a confused expression.
"Why did the gunfire stop outside?"
The communications soldier finally understood: "Report to the regiment commander, according to what has been observed in the forward positions, at dawn today, the little devil suddenly began to dig fortifications two miles away from us. ”
Hearing the report of the communication soldier, Ma Wanzhong was a little confused by the second monk, obviously they were on the defensive side, and the little devil was the attacking side, why did the little devil suddenly start to defend, there must be a demon when something happens. Ma Wanzhong couldn't care so much, grabbed the binoculars on the table, brought his gun, and walked out of the headquarters.
"Commander, this is the situation this morning, and I don't know why the little devil will shrink his defense." The commander of a battalion in the forward position defense reported to Ma Wanzhong.
"Did you send scouts to scout?" Ma Wanzhong asked.
"Two waves of scouts have been arranged, and nothing has been found, and the little devil doesn't seem to be fighting."
"Regiment commander, the signal corps from the division headquarters is here!" A soldier with a communications soldier came to Ma Wanzhong's side.
"Chu Pengtian's soldiers?" Ma Wanzhong looked at the soldier in front of him and asked.
The signal soldier nodded: "Commander Ma, Captain Huang asked me to tell you that the Second Regiment has captured Yuxian, and now the Japanese army in Yangquan does not dare to move south. ”
Hearing the report of the communication soldier, Ma Wanzhong grinned: "The immortal dragged Wen Crepe, but the second child's combat effectiveness is not bad, Yuxian County has been taken down, it seems that if I don't make some noise, we will let the second child rob the limelight in the future." ”
"Commander, is there any new battle plan?" After several battalion commanders beside Ma Wanzhong heard what Ma Wanzhong said, they guessed whether their regiment commander was going to hand over a new combat mission to them.
Ma Wanzhong thought about it, the battle has been fought for two days, and the soldiers must also be sleepy, their main purpose is to defend and pacify the county town and prevent the Japanese army from moving south, and it will definitely not be easy to launch an attack on the Japanese army in front of them at this time.
"I remember that there is still a lot of meat in the little devil's warehouse, and the soldiers will be stewed at noon today, if the little devil doesn't attack, everyone will have a good rest." Ma Wanzhong said to several battalion commanders under his command that now is not the time to be stunned, and letting the troops rest well is the last word.
After Li Weimin took Yuxian, the effect was very significant, and the Japanese army had to divide its troops to prevent Li Weimin from sending troops south, so as to ensure that the support troops could be repaired and replenished after arriving in Yangquan, and then they could continue the battle smoothly.
Moreover, the loss of Yuxian County can directly threaten the railway from Taiyuan to Yangquan, and the little devil has to pay attention to the role of Yuxian, and wants to take advantage of the fact that the Second Regiment has just occupied Yuxian and has not gained a firm foothold to take Yuxian back.
In other directions, the railways and highways that had been destroyed by the common people last night had already played a role, and when the mechanized support units of the little devils arrived, they found that the roads had been destroyed, and the cars could not move forward at all, and the Japanese troops, who were already sleepy and tired, were forced to get out of the cars and walk.
However, the road has been ploughed into fields by the common people, and even when walking, the speed of the Japanese reinforcements is much slower, and they are constantly harassed by the snipers of the special combat team on the way, and the situation was even worse last night, when the special combat team gathered together and bit off the logistics of the little devils. The little devil is in the light, the special combat team is in the dark, and the little devil can only be beaten passively in this battle. Even if the little devil has strong combat effectiveness, the spirit of bushido is also screaming, but in the face of the special combat team that came and went without a trace, waved his hand and took away a large number of Japanese devils, it was really a punch on the cotton.
Finally, they got closer and closer to the target, but the road was destroyed again. However, the little devil's will to fight is really strong, maybe he is angry with the special combat team that has disappeared without a trace, since he got the order, whether it is facing the harassment of the special combat team, or facing the road that has been destroyed, their speed has slowed down, but the little devil still marches towards the goal without sleeping.
Just when the little devils were still more than thirty miles away from the county seats, they began to encounter resistance in the real sense. On the first day, the 3rd Regiment continued to expand its gains, and the area under its control had reached a radius of 60 miles around the county seat, and last night, with the assistance of the masses, the 3rd Regiment had destroyed about 30 miles of roads and railways on the main road.
"Let the troops defend it for me, if I can't hold it, Lao Tzu will kill him!"
Hu Guoshan gave the final order, give you such weapons and ammunition, if you can't resist the Japanese army without heavy weapons, this face will be lost to your grandmother's house. However, there were no heavy weapons, but the Japanese planes in the sky were arrogant.
The defensive battle within 30 miles of Xiyang County and Heshun County began, and the third regiment was responsible for the two county seats, and the scope of defense was too large, and the troops were overstretched, so there was Hu Guoshan's death order just now.
Zhao Caizhu, who was in Xiyang County, looked at the information in his hand and sighed: "Fortunately, there is a special combat team, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to bear it this morning." ”
"Arrange for the communications corps to return to the command headquarters and tell Brother Fan that we need support." Zhao Caizhu said calmly to a soldier beside him, "And tell the regiment commander that the situation here is ours, and it is estimated that the regiment commander is also struggling to support it today." ”
In the morning, Liao Fan made a simple arrangement of the defense situation in Beitai Peak, brought the soldiers of the fourth regiment and left 200 people for Lao Si to lead, assist in the deployment of the mountain pass, and prevent the little devil from killing a horse gun, Liao Fan took the remaining soldiers of the fourth regiment, passed through Feihu Ridge, and then returned to his headquarters.
