Chapter 514 Zhu Gang's Diary - Ahead, an open field
"Did you notice that the devils are marching faster than they were chasing us. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info," Huo Xiaoshan said.
"Well, it's coming soon, that means the devil wantsβ" I was only halfway through my words.
"Run!" , Huo Xiaoshan and I said in unison.
"Why did the devils retreat, although we also killed dozens of devils, and according to the temper of the devils, they will be entangled to the end, but now they are retreating quickly, which means that they must have received orders from above." Huo Xiaoshan quickly analyzed.
"Could it be that the tide of battle has changed dramatically?" I guessed.
"It's very likely that this time it's in the Fifth War Zone, and the commander of the Fifth War Zone is from the Gui family.
He commanded the war quite strongly, and Taierzhuang won the battle, but it was under his command.
Therefore, it may not be impossible for the Japanese to win the war again. Huo Xiaoshan continued to analyze.
Although I have the impression that Huo Xiaoshan is definitely not a talkative person, I found that he is definitely a blind man who eats dumplings - a person who knows what to expect.
Not only did he have his own ideas in battle, but he was able to destroy the Japanese army and achieve eye-popping results, but he was also far superior to ordinary grassroots commanders in grasping the battle situation.
In addition, I intuitively felt that he seemed to be very familiar with the policies and tactics of our party, but he never refused to express his opinion, but instead listened to the dung ball in a conversation with the dung ball and inadvertently said "Internachonaire"!
I asked who he was listening to about this strange term, and he said that he was listening to Shen Chong, but of course he didn't know what this French word translated literally by pronunciation meant. (Note: Internacional, International Communism)
Shen Chong and Huo Xiaoshan are not very old, but they know Interna Xiongnaer, and this alone is enough to make me have rich associations.
However, now is not the time to study these things, I admire Huo Xiaoshan for deducing the above content just because the Japanese army has accelerated the speed of retreat, so he said: "Anyway, if the devil faces east, we prefer to face west, and it always can't be as he wishes!" β
"That's what it means!" Huo Xiaoshan said with a smile.
β¦β¦
The green hills were reckless, the trees were verdant, and more than 20 people from Huo Xiaoshan's battalion and I closely followed the traces left by the Japanese army after the march, and the large army was behind us.
I found that Huo Xiaoshan always brought me something unexpected, and his method of marching was very practical.
The spearhead is naturally in front, and the large army is naturally behind, but the large army always hides behind the hills, woods and ravines, and does not let the large army pass until the spearhead confirms that the open ground is safe.
And now more than 20 of us are hiding in the woods, and beyond the woods is an open field 100 meters wide.
Everyone focused their eyes on Huo Xiaoshan, naturally waiting for him to make up his mind whether to enter the open field.
The ancients had a saying that when the forest is not in the poor, the poor are not chased, but now we cannot rush into the open land in front, who knows if there is a "tail" of the Japanese army in the woods at the other end of the open land to cover the retreat.
If we go into the open field, even if we are swept away by someone with a crooked handle, we will definitely lose a lot.
Who can everyone look at without looking at Huo Xiaoshan, first, he is the decision-maker, and second, he is now our guide, who makes him perceptive.
Huo Xiaoshan waved his hand and lay down, which meant that he naturally stopped advancing, and then ordered Xiao Shi Suo: "Go and adjust all the machine gun grenadiers in the back." β
After a while, the machine guns and grenadiers arrived, and after Huo Xiaoshan gave an order to prepare to shoot, he still observed the woods outside the 100-meter open field and was silent.
"Chief, where is the little devil?" Xiao Shisuo waited to meet Huo Xiaoshan, but he was still silent, and couldn't help asking.
"In the woods across the street!" Huo Xiaoshan replied.
"I also know that it is in the woods opposite, but under which tree, is it the big pine tree or the big poplar tree or the big locust tree?" Xiao Shisuo still asked.
"How do I know, I am neither a mountain god nor a land lord." Huo Xiaoshan replied.
"Then why are you letting us set up machine gun grenadiers?" Xiao Shisuo asked reluctantly.
"Wait for the devil to move!" Huo Xiaoda replied.
"When is the devil moving?" Xiao Shisuo asked again, but a sentence came from behind him, which directly intercepted his childlike tongue.
Of course, he's a kid himself, although he's surprisingly good.
The person who intercepted him said yes: "Shut your mouth!" The old mistake is committed again, and if you grind again, I will beat you? β
"Who are you? The boss didn't discipline me! Xiao Shisuo was not convinced, turned around and said, but he glanced at the person behind him and called "Fourth Brother" and closed his mouth.
"I'll clean you up after the battle, you're so sticky, I don't know what's going on!" Tie Suo scolded him again, and Xiao Shisuo didn't move at all.
I know the three brothers of Xiaoshisuo, it is said that they were five brothers when they joined the army, and the eldest brother and the second brother were killed in battle, so the responsibility of disciplining Xiaoshisuo fell on the iron lock and copper lock.
The copper lock lock is a good temper, but the iron lock is like a fire, so Xiao Shi is not afraid of any leader in the direct battalion, but he is most afraid of his fourth brother.
I found that Huo Xiaoshan's temper is really good, and his tolerance for his subordinates, whether big or small, is sometimes intolerable in my opinion of the Eighth Route Army, which pays attention to the unity of officers and soldiers, but what I have seen so far is that Huo Xiaoshan laughed at the words and behaviors of some soldiers.
"You're too sticky this time, hey, don't cry, I won't talk about you!" Huo Xiaoshan rarely criticized Xiaoshi Suo, but he only brushed the ground with Xiaoshi's keyhole and turned red.
Huo Xiaoshan glanced back at him, and rarely criticized him, but when he saw that his eyes were red, he hurriedly withdrew the criticism.
But at this moment, gunshots and explosions suddenly rang out on the other side of the hill ahead.
The penetrating sound of "Dong Dong Dong" was undoubtedly unique to heavy machine guns, and I guessed that Shen Chong had hit a Japanese ambush with them.
"Eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, machine guns! Grenadier! Huo Xiaoshan shouted the moment he twisted his head back.
He shouted so urgently that he omitted the word "shooting", but how could the soldiers not understand?
So, in an instant, the "Da Da Da" bullet was as dense as a raindrop, completely covering the woods in the direction he was pointing!
Immediately afterward, "Tom Tom" smashed through three more grenades!
The gunfire was loud, but the opposite side was hit by bullets and leaves flying, and no one knew whether it had hit the enemy.
"The machine gun stops firing! Rush up! Two minutes later, Huo Xiaoshan shouted.
Huo Xiaoshan himself did not rush up, and stopped Lu Zhengsheng from rushing forward.
I didn't move, in my opinion, there is no reason for a battalion commander to take the lead in the charge in this situation, and he didn't let Lu Zhengsheng charge because he thought that Lu Zhengsheng was his guest as a member of the Eighth Route Army.
But after the soldiers of the battalion charged, I realized that the reasons I had assumed were not all correct.
Because I saw that the charge of the battalion was obviously specially trained, and their charge was very similar to the charge of the Japanese army, which was the kind of cross-cover charge.
The reason why he did not take the lead in the charge was because as the commander of the first battalion, he must not have participated in the kind of joint training between the soldiers who covered and who charged, and lacked sufficient tacit understanding with the soldiers.
Huo Xiaoshan is very calm and realistic.
