Chapter 1155: Deputy Battalion Commander
Baoying County, White Horse Lake.
Days of rain have poured into Hakuba Lake, and the water level has risen so much that the lake has flooded the dry tidal flats along the shore, leaving only a few old fishing boats moored on the shore, but the fishermen are nowhere to be found.
The water of Hakuba Lake is shrouded in mist, and as far as the eye can see, the water waves are rippling and hazy, and the large reeds stretch until the rain and fog that cannot be seen in the sky, quiet and peaceful.
At this moment, in this dense reed, the officers and soldiers of the second battalion under the command of the Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Corps were hiding in it.
In the depths of the reeds, tents and reed-made huts were connected one after another, and the brothers hid here to escape from the devils.
After the devils occupied Baoying, they immediately sent troops to pursue and suppress the guerrilla troops, while Wu Changqing and the brothers of the second battalion scattered to the area of Baima Lake to disperse and hide.
The main force of the second battalion has been hiding in this reed, and has sent various companies out to attack the devils to fight guerrilla warfare, which not only plays a role in confusing the devils, but also gives the devils a lot of casualties, and has won a lot.
Although the conditions for hiding in this wilderness are a little more difficult, it is better to be safe enough, even if they are discovered by the little devils, they can use the cover of the reeds to quickly transfer.
"The devils have set up a supply point for troops in Li Village, we have figured out the situation, a devil infantry squad is stationed in the village, and one is stationed outside the village, there are more than 100 devils, and our two companies can eat it."
The guerrillas have been hiding in the shadows, but the little devils are in the open, and there are guerrillas hidden among the people to provide information, so Wu Changqing knows the whereabouts of the devils well.
Although there is a brigade of devils sweeping through this area now, there are dozens of villages around it, and there are rivers and paddy fields, and the scattered villages and complex brothers have greatly limited the combat effectiveness of the devil troops.
Although there are a large number of devil encirclement and suppression troops, the guerrilla brothers who take turns to attack are all familiar brothers, and they lead the little devils every time.
Every time the little devil was tired and wanted to stop and recuperate, the guerrillas suddenly appeared and dealt them a severe blow, which made the little devil almost go crazy.
The guerrillas now have the initiative in full control, and their goals are now not limited to the search team of the devils, but also the main force leading the devils in circles, and they have begun to target the supply points of the devils.
The Theater Command provided very little supply to the guerrilla corps in northern Jiangsu, and most of the weapons and ammunition had to be handled by the guerrillas themselves.
After this period of combat attrition, the ammunition in the hands of the brothers was quickly depleted, and now they had to find a way to get ammunition.
Fortunately, the brothers of the third company who returned from completing the mission brought back good news, they found a supply point for the devils, and the forward base for providing supplies and ammunition for the devils.
Because it is a strange rural area, there is no road for trucks to drive, and it is inconvenient for the devil to carry a large amount of ammunition to fight.
Therefore, most of the devil troops who fought were lightly armed, so that they would not be unable to catch up with the guerrillas when they discovered them.
And in some of the villages in the area of activity, they have set up fixed material supply points, which are responsible for providing supplies to these lightly armed devil troops at any time.
"Where is the main force of the devil now?"
Although he got the information about the supply point of the devil's materials, the battalion commander Wu Changqing did not have the slightest carelessness.
"Hehe, battalion commander, don't worry, the main force of the devil has been led by us to Zhuzhuang in the north, and he won't be able to come back for a while." The commander of the third company said happily.
In their opinion, the little devil is just like a stupid pig, he knows to chase after their ass and eat their fart.
As they ran, the brothers began to disperse, digging into the reeds in the woods beside the road, and the final result of the little devil's pursuit was that the target in front of them was getting smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared completely.
The Devil Soldiers also tried to outflank them in a roundabout way, but because they were unfamiliar with the terrain, they often got stuck in the mud while walking, or were blocked by rivers without bridges, which made them almost crazy.
And the brothers of the guerrillas were at home in this vast rural area, and with the help of the local villagers.
"Are there any villagers in the village?"
"The villagers have already moved to the surrounding villages before the devils arrived."
"What is the firepower configuration of the devil?"
"I didn't see heavy machine guns and infantry guns, but there were a lot of light machine guns, and grenadiers......"
The battalion commander Wu Changqing is a thoughtful person, although the devil's supply points are within reach, he still does not dare to be careless.
He is now a battalion commander, and the lives of hundreds of brothers under his hands are in his hands, others can despise little devils, but he will not.
He knows that the little devil is insidious and cunning, although this material supply point seems to have a weak defense, but who knows if it is a trap of the little devil.
If they appear, a large army of devils will surround them, and then the boat will capsize in the gutter.
After careful questioning and deliberation by Wu Changqing, he finally determined that the supply point of this devil could be hit.
"The reconnaissance platoon will go over and feel the situation again now, make sure that there is no change in the devil's defense, and mark all the devil's firepower points."
"The 1st Company, the 2nd Company, and the Machine Gun Company are ready to attack, set out after dark, and launch an attack at 12 o'clock in the evening, striving to end the battle in half an hour."
Soon, the battalion commander Wu Changqing gave the order to attack, if they could take down the supply point of this devil's supplies, their ammunition and supplies would be able to last for a while.
"I personally led the attack, and when I was away, you took over the command." After the battalion commander Wu Changqing gave the order, he instructed the deputy battalion commander Hua Gou.
The deputy commander of the second battalion was originally Liu Jinhu, but Liu Jinhu had died in the battle against Baoying, and the brave and daring Hua Dog was promoted to deputy battalion commander.
"Battalion commander, use a cattle slaughtering knife to kill chickens, and leave the task of beating the devil's supply point to me, I promise to take down the devil's supply point smoothly!"
The deputy battalion commander Hua Gou was also promoted step by step from the big head soldier to the position of the current deputy battalion commander, and he is also a native of Huaiyin, which can be said to be a soldier of northern Jiangsu, and hates little devils more than anyone else.
With Liu Jinhu's death, Hua Gou is now promoted to deputy commander of the second battalion and desperately needs a battle to prove himself, and this is an excellent opportunity.
"Battalion commander, you are the commander, how can there be a reason to charge into battle, the task will be handed over to us." The commander of a company also echoed on the side.
Several company commanders persuaded them one after another, letting the battalion commander Wu Changqing stay here to command, while they went to the supply point to fight the devils.
"In that case, then you should take the brothers and come back after the fight, so as not to be glued by the devils."
Wu Changqing also intended to let Huagou take his brothers to fight and establish prestige in the camp, so he no longer insisted on going by himself.
"The battalion commander is assured that the mission will be completed!" Deputy battalion commander Hua Gou swore and assured.
