Chapter Seventy-Three: Attacking the County Town (First Update)

The leader of the devil squad drove the motorcycle desperately out, knocked down the soldier with a gun, escaped from the town, and disappeared into the night.

Lei Jian's company, with the cooperation of the local armed forces, quickly eliminated the stubborn little devils who were blocked in the room, and then surrounded the puppet army camp, and under the strong attack of fire strikes and shouting persuasion, the company commander of the puppet army was killed.

The deputy company commander shouted inside the house: "Don't shoot, we surrender." ”

In order to stabilize the local security in Jujia Town, Lei Jian ordered those bastards who were three sects and nine streams, and usually relied on RB forces to oppress the people, gather them to give lectures, give serious warnings, and then run rampant in the countryside in the future, and they will not be spared.

The children of the people in the nearby villages and towns saw that the anti-Japanese troops were strictly disciplined and eliminated the enemy puppet troops stationed in the town, and they sent men to join the anti-Japanese forces.

Captain Han, the local armed force, insisted on taking the team to join the Lei Jian Company, and even the captured puppet soldiers, after a short period of education and transformation, actively signed up for the team.

According to the order issued by the SD Anti-Japanese Salvation Guerrilla Army and the 3rd Army Headquarters to expand the army and consolidate the base area before leaving, Lei Jian screened and captured the descendants and puppet soldiers who were resolute in resisting Japanese aggression and incorporated them into the first battalion and one company of the independent regiment.

At present, the number of soldiers in the first company has expanded to nearly 200 people, and there are five platoons under it.

The battle of Jujia Town eliminated the first devil stronghold fortified outside the city of Yantai, which greatly encouraged the enthusiasm of the military and the people for the War of Resistance.

Captain Han, the local armed force, sent the young and strong team members to join the first company, and he led the elderly and women team members to continue to persist in the struggle behind enemy lines.

After attacking Jujia Town, the soldiers of the first company were provided with the latest weapons and equipment, ammunition and materials urgently needed by the troops, and loaded into three-horse carts.

In the early morning of the third day, the troops left Jujia Town and headed for the Cuijiakou base area.

Cuijiakou is more than 150 miles away from Yantai City, and the little devils stationed in N County are not strong enough to reach the whip commander of Cuijiakou base area.

A while ago, the little devils surrounded the Thunder God Temple and severely damaged the headquarters of the 3rd Anti-Japanese Army, resulting in the sacrifice of Commander Ridge and the great loss of the base area.

Later, the headquarters of the 3rd Army moved westward and joined the independent regiment, the Cuijiakou base area lost the support of the main force, and the anti-Japanese mood was low.

The villagers in Cuijiakou, seeing that the anti-Japanese team had fought back, smiled one by one, and the base area had a new vitality.

Lei Jian stationed in the Cuijiakou base less than ten days, with a company raid on N county, more than 100 little devils stationed in the county desperately resisted, the battle was very fierce, after a day and a night of fierce fighting, the devils who were not eliminated fled back to Yantai City in panic, and the county seat was occupied.

The county seat of N is more than 50 miles away from Yantai City, and it is necessary to cross three or four mountains that are not too high in the middle, although it is interconnected with a narrow road, it is still not very convenient to come and go.

Lei Jian led a company to attack the county seat, and did not garrison it in the county seat, but handed it over to the anti-Japanese government.

The work of one battalion and one company of the Independent Regiment in Cuijiakou has been prominent, and the contingent has expanded to more than 500 people.

In 1938, according to the order of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Yan'an, the 3rd Army of SD Anti-Japanese Salvation was reorganized into the 5th Detachment of the SD People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Army of the Eighth Route Army of the Chinese Revolutionary Army.

One battalion of the independent regiment was connected to a new combat mission, and it left the Cuijiakou base area that night and urgently moved closer to the independent regiment stationed in the Wangjialing base area.

Commander Fang saw that Lei Jian returned to the base with more than a battalion of troops and was fully armed, he patted Lei Jian's shoulder and laughed: "Good boy, your current strength is about to catch up with one of my regiments." ”

"Lei Jian, the strength of the first battalion of the independent regiment is not as much as your company, my battalion commander is good to do it for you, hahaha." Luo Jinchuan looked at the energetic Lei Jian and said with great appreciation.

Lei Jian said embarrassedly: "Regiment commander, battalion commander, I will return the company to you, as long as I leave my ten old brothers to me." ”

Regiment Commander Fang became serious and said to Staff Officer Chen beside him: "A battalion-level meeting will be held immediately, and Lei Jian will attend." ”

Lei Jian sat at the regiment headquarters for the first time, he didn't speak, took out a small notebook and kept remembering, the third battalion commander next to him grabbed it, and said with a smile: "This Lei boy is really capable, I haven't seen him for a month or two, and he has learned to read and write, you see, is this kid a pig with a pig nose and an onion pretending to be an elephant?" Yes? Hahaha. ”

"Ma Teng, return the notebook to Lei Jian, you bastard, you don't study for a day, and you're jealous when you see people recognize a few words." Captain Fang didn't expect that Lei Jian, a bastard boy, would be able to read and write.

He walked to Lei Jian's side, asked for a few pages in the notebook, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he felt, his brows stretched for a while, closed the notebook and said: "Look at it, Lei Jian is a crop baby, not only knows how to read, but also writes so well, but there are too many typos." ”

As soon as Lei Jian heard that Regiment Leader Fang said that there were too many typos in his notes, he didn't believe it, and just wanted to go back to his notebook to take a look, he suddenly laughed.

Luo Jinchuan asked, "Lei Jian, when did you learn to read and write?" If you want to learn, you have to learn well, but you can't make mistakes all the time. ”

Lei Jian stood up with a red face and said: "You think it's a typo, that's if you don't know, what I wrote is a simplified word in the future, don't say it, you won't understand it." ”

Yes, the simplified word decades later suddenly appeared in the eyes of these people through the era, and of course it would be regarded as a typo if they didn't know it.

Regiment Commander Fang returned the notebook to Lei Jian, and suddenly said solemnly: "Comrades, we are now the team of the Eighth Route Army, and all actions must be under the command, according to the order of the headquarters of the fifth detachment of the Eighth Route Army, I ......." ”

The commanders present looked at Regiment Commander Fang and listened to him give a new combat order.

Lei Jian accepted the order and returned to the first company, but before he sat down, Battalion Commander Luo walked in, and Lei Jian stood up and saluted.

Battalion Commander Luo pulled the thunder sword and sat down, and asked seriously: "Company Commander, what do you think about this attack on Ninghai City?" ”

"The conditions are not ripe, and it is not the best time to attack the county seat."

"You kid dares to resist the combat orders of the detachment headquarters, I think you have to learn hard, what is called obeying orders." Luo Jinchuan stood up and said solemnly.

Lei Jian stood up, looked at Luo Jinchuan and said a little aggrieved: "Battalion Commander Luo, this is your fault, you asked for my opinion, and you were criticized for your ideas, what kind of thing is this?" ”

"Haha, you kid is quite good at justifying, okay, I will convey the order of the regiment headquarters, ordering you to transfer a reconnaissance squad to the company, led by you, and sneak into the city to find out the enemy's troop deployment and weapon allocation, one day, can you complete such an important task?"

Lei Jian saluted and replied: "Please rest assured that Battalion Commander Luo will complete the task." ”

When the soldiers of the first company heard that they were going to the county seat to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, they enthusiastically signed up one by one, and Lei Jian selected ten soldiers and set off immediately in disguise.

Lei Jian took ten warriors and rushed out of the Wangjialing base area across the horse, and soon approached the county seat of NH.

He deposited the war horse in a landlord's compound not far from the county seat, explaining the situation, the landlord surnamed Song did not shirk too much, and promised to be willing to take care of the war horse.

Lei Jian took the brothers into the city, he first found Zhao Long, the head of the flower child, privately asked about the situation of some little devils in the city, and asked Zhao Long to take them close to the devil city, the key areas of the city gate troops to reconnoitre.

Back at the regiment headquarters, Lei Jian reported the situation in the city that he had detected, and handed over the map of the devils in the city he drew to the head of the regiment.

After careful study, the battle plan was adjusted, and the troops were ordered to arrive outside Ninghai before dawn, do a good job of concealment, wait for orders, and carry out a strong attack.

In the attack on the county seat of NH, the first battalion was the main battalion attacking the south gate, and the first company was the vanguard of the main attack.

It was dark and dreary, and the darkness before dawn enveloped the county seat, and it would take another ten minutes to storm the county seat.

Lei Jian said to the deputy company commander Niu Dali: "Deputy company commander Niu, you take four platoons to storm the south city gate, cover me with a platoon to assault and occupy the city gate, knock down the city gate, and intersperse into the city, you have to rush to the combat site in time to support me according to the map I drew for you." ”

"No, the assault platoon should be led by me, you are the supreme commander of a company, without your command, the offensive mission will not be very smooth, you."

"Bastard, I told you Niu Dali, once you can't follow quickly, the assault platoon I lead will be surrounded by enemies, you know? Execute the command. ”

Lei Jian gave an order to the platoon that was attacking him: "Check the weapons and equipment and the tools for climbing the city." ”

He looked at his watch and said, "Get ready, five minutes to go." ”

A man touched Lei Jian's side and whispered, "I'm going too." ”

"Y-Can you save me my mind? This siege task is arduous, and the casualties will definitely be large, so you are obedient and stay behind. ”

"Brother Lei, my Chun Tao has already died a few times, you are not afraid of death, and I am not afraid of either."

As soon as Lei Jian saw that the time was up, he didn't care about talking to Chun Tao, and ordered to the row next to him: "Hide close to the city wall and attack." ”

Under the darkness of the night before dawn, more than forty black shadows relaxed their feet, quickly approached the city wall, and crouched at the base of the wall waiting for the first gunshot.

The east slowly revealed the white of the fish's belly, the sky turned gray, and the visibility could be seen more than ten meters away, and suddenly a gunshot rang out, and Niu Dali led a company of four platoons, like a tiger out of the mountain, with a gun and a tongue of fire rushing to the south city gate.

More than 20 little devils and a platoon army guarding the south city gate were suddenly attacked by fierce fire, and the commander of the devil guarding the city gate was panicked, and he ordered a quick counterattack to close the city gate.

The devil commander grabbed the phone and called urgently: "Squadron Leader Masao Kosaka, the Eighth Route Army is attacking the South City Gate and requesting rapid reinforcements." ”

Before Masao Kosaka got up, he heard a fierce gunfire in the direction of the south gate, and he jumped out of bed and just wanted to run over to grab the phone to question, when he heard the piercing phone ring suddenly. 9098
