Chapter 503
“1939 . 5 . 9, Xiaoshi, who was sent back by Huo Xiaoshan, brought the large army into Dahongshan, and heard that Huo Xiaoshan and they used a tank to hit the headquarters of a Japanese wing this time, and the enthusiasm of the soldiers of the directly subordinate battalion for war rose again. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
1939 . 5 . 10. Huo Xiaoshan met with a battalion commander of the 39th Army, only to learn that the 39th Army was also in this Dahongshan area, but only two regiments were sent to conduct guerrilla warfare in the rear of the Japanese army, and the rest of the troops were used as ambushes for the Chinese army to counterattack the Japanese army.
1939 . 5 . 11. Huo Xiaoshan led some officers and men to hold a forum with 10 officers and men of the Eighth Route to discuss how to carry out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines in the Dahong Mountains and exchange experiences in fighting devils.
1939 . 5 . 12, Huo Xiaoshan convened a meeting of officers above the platoon level of the battalion directly under him to deploy how to use the platoon as a unit to fight devils with piecemeal kraft candy combat methods.
1939 . 5 . 13, Huo Xiaoshan was divided into ten teams and officially attacked.
Originally, after assisting the Fifth Theater to combat the infiltration and sneak attack of the Japanese army in the Fifth Theater, I should have led the team back, but the ten of us became more interested in Huo Xiaoshan's battalion at the same time, so I decided to stay for a while.
This time, I didn't participate in the battle with those combat backbones of Huo Xiaoshan's subordinates, but chose a small detachment of ordinary warriors composed of forty people, and I hope to get to know Huo Xiaoshan more deeply by treating them ordinary soldiers.
Yes, I'm going to use the term "warrior" here.
Only people from our own team call soldiers, and usually we all call other Kuomintang soldiers soldiers.
The reason why I call the people in Huo Xiaoshan's battalion like this is because apart from the fact that they do not believe in communism, I don't feel that they are much different from the Eighth Route Army led by our Communist Party.
They fought bravely against the enemy, but they also paid attention to tactical tactics.
They are strictly disciplined, every soldier can consciously do not disturb the people, see the people near the station in trouble, they are willing to help each other without taking a penny, they can camp in the light rain on the street, and they will never go into the house to hide from the rain.
Their officers and men were the same, eating the same meals and receiving the same meals.
There is no doubt that they also have a tradition in this team, and this team is said to have only existed for two years so far.
I am glad that the leader of this detachment I am part of is such a veteran who has witnessed the birth of tradition, and he has a memorable name called "Dung Ball", and he has no big name.
The dung ball is very small, and according to the private division of the soldiers of the direct battalion to the officers, he is also the leader, but because of his unattainable name, others can't call him the leader, so the soldiers call him the ball.
"Ball, why don't you let us kill more devils?" Shortly after departure, a soldier asked about the dung ball.
Dung Balls explained, that's because our quartermaster department has been in the limelight lately, so let us avoid the limelight, and don't let the devils find out that our entire battalion is in the Dahong Mountain.
Speaking of which, they have been in the limelight lately, and the soldiers have been talking about it, and it can be seen that they are very proud of their team.
I took the opportunity to ask Qiuzi why your battalion was so friendly to our Eighth Route Army.
Qiuzi replied, at first glance, you and us are the same kind of people, both of whom fight devils, and in addition, you don't bully or curse people, and you don't pretend to be bullish like the Central Army, which is very similar to us.
He also said that the other leaders and the madmen have no objection to us associating with you.
I asked who the madman was, and he said that Shen Chong was crazy when he started the war, but this year it was much better, and the boss was so easy not to get angry, and there were many times when everyone listened to the madman.
I asked again, by the way, what kind of person is your chief daughter-in-law?
When the dung ball heard me ask, he replied that our daughter-in-law was the kindest, most beautiful, and bravest girl I had ever met.
Then who is the two of them in your family? I asked again.
After looking at me carefully, he smiled and said, Who told you that they were married?
I ask you again, how well do you know your daughter-in-law?
But at this time, the dung ball did not answer, but diverted the conversation and said something else.
Obviously, Dung Ball is one of Huo Xiaoshan's henchmen, and I feel that he should know a lot of things about Huo Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law but refuses to tell me.
So why didn't he tell me?
Why didn't he tell me I couldn't think of it, but I could analyze it.
If Huo Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law was just an ordinary girl, she would never be brave.
If Huo Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law is also a Kuomintang, then there is no need for him to hide it from me, because although their direct battalion is different from other Central Army, it is itself a Kuomintang, so there is no need for the dung ball to hide it from me, unless......
Well, stop talking about it!
By the time we said this, we had already left the camp for a long time, and the fighters of this group automatically shut their mouths.
What a highly conscious team!
We set out at dawn and at noon we went out of the mountains.
Huo Xiaoshan's team was really experienced in fighting guerrillas, and Dung Ball sent out a plainclothes squad of six people first, and the large army followed from a distance, and in the afternoon, the plainclothes squad came with the news that they had found a Japanese heavy force.
At this time, the dung ball had already found a local villager as a guide.
The fellow told us that about 20 miles in the direction of the Japanese army's advance, it was closest to the Dahong Mountains, and that it was also the only way for the Japanese army.
So, we began a rapid march.
We were in a hurry, and during this journey, I found that the physical strength of the ordinary soldiers of Huo Xiaoshan's battalion was also very good, and even surpassed the ordinary soldiers of our Eighth Route Army.
I think there are three reasons why they have good physical strength.
One is that they are also highly conscious of fighting devils.
The second is that they have a significantly high level of training.
The third is that their food supply is more abundant than ours, and their soldiers are generally stronger than our Eighth Route Army and even the soldiers of the Central Army, and they all say that it is the credit of the former fat man Zheng Youjian.
Finally, we set up an ambush on a hill more than 300 meters away from the road before the Japanese arrived.
At that time, some fighters complained that the ambush position was not ideal, and it was too far from the road.
But the dung ball said that it was just right, and I knew the reason he explained to the soldiers, because I was also present when Huo Xiaoshan was making the battle deployment.
Huo Xiaoshan demanded that each detachment should not kill more than fifteen enemies at a time.
Actually, I quite understand Huo Xiaoshan, he doesn't want to be famous, he just wants to make a fortune and fight devils, but there is no way, the combat effectiveness of his team is too strong, and it is impossible to keep a low profile.
The battle was just like Huo Xiaoshan's arrangement, the scale was not large, and the number of kills was limited.
The reason why the scale is not large is because the dung ball commanded all the soldiers to shoot only one platoon gun, and after the fight, they turned around and ran.
I didn't shoot, I kept watching, and according to my observations, even though each shot was only one, the number of Japanese killed and wounded should be about twenty.
On the way we retreated, the dung ball said, this is an order from the head, we can't kill more devils, otherwise if the number of heads is matched between the shooting soldiers and the Japanese soldiers, the Japanese army should fall at least thirty. Only about twenty fell, and that was because two of them hit one of the devil soldiers at the same time.
