Chapter 248 The Battle of Xifu Tent Station

The reconnaissance platoon of the independent regiment was about to maneuver to a place called the Jiangyi Station on Longhai Road, and the platoon of Changning Erzi, who was lying on the ground and observing, felt the ground under his belly suddenly move sharply, and then a long whistle of a train whistle was heard from a distance.

A train whirred, whirring, panting, clattering (the sound of an old-fashioned slotted steel rail train walking), the snow-bright locomotive headlights shone out far, far away like a searchlight, the train turned a big bend, and the clear light swept past the place where Ning Erzi and the soldiers were lying on their stomachs.

When the light shone on the scout, Ning Erzi, who was constantly observing with a telescope, had a white flower in his eyes, and he couldn't see anything for a few seconds.

Waiting for the light to sweep over, Ning Erzi's eyes couldn't help but say after seeing things again: "This train is really amazing, I haven't seen such a bright light when I'm so big." ”

A soldier lying next to Ning Erzi also muttered: "Platoon commander, if you light all the lights in our village, there is not a single light on this train, and I can't see anything just now as if I was blind." ”

Most of the fighters of the independent regiment came from the countryside, and very few had seen the train, but this time they felt very new when they saw the train.

I saw the train whirring and whirring, and when it reached a place not too far from the soldiers, it slowly stopped, and then a few people got out of the train, carrying buckets and carrying buckets of water up from under the locomotive.

A soldier said to Ning Erzi excitedly: "Platoon commander, I know what they are doing, the train is thirsty, so we have to fill it with some water just like the big animals used in our village to cultivate the land, or we won't work." ”

Ning Erzi knocked the soldier on the head: "You know a fart, the train is thirsty, do you know what the train is made of, the train is made of iron, can the train made of iron be thirsty?" ”

This time the soldier really said right, the train made of iron also had to drink water, the old steam locomotive had to be refilled with water regularly, and at the base it was water with a device called a water crane (a tubular device with a pointed head down, a bit like a bird's hook beak, which has long been eliminated), and in the middle of the way, it could only be benzene.

Three people got down from the locomotive, and several people carried a lot of water from the well in the middle of the line (the crew of the steam locomotive is three people, one is the driver, one is the co-driver, and one is the stoker who adds coal, if you want to be the main driver, you have to be the deputy first, and you must do the stoker before being the deputy, the stoker is the most tired body in the past, a spade of coal is more than 30 catties, and it is required to add how many times per minute to be qualified)

After filling up the water, the driver pulled the whistle (the position above the right hand), and the train made another long whistle and then started slowly, gradually driving faster and faster, and after a while, the train was gone.

After the train left, everyone finally took a breath, and one of the soldiers said with emotion: "Hey, I finally saw the train, and there are many people in our village who have never seen this big guy in their lives." ”

Ning Erzi snorted with his nose: "What is this, when we win in the future and defeat Lao Jiang, let's all go and take this train and see what it's like to sit on it, but now is not the time to watch the excitement, let's not forget what we are here for, action." ”

Dozens of scouts pounced like tanuki, and it didn't take much effort to get a clear picture of the situation around the station.

Don't look at this tent station is not big, but the geographical location is very important, less than 100 kilometers away from Baoji, it is an important outpost station in Baoji City, there is a large storage warehouse, and there is a company of soldiers to guard it all year round.

However, because the soldiers of this company have not appeared for a long time, their guards are lax, and the soldiers who have no spare time have already gone to bed early, and occasionally a few people with excess energy still play cards and drink together.

Seeing the Kuomintang soldiers who were not prepared at all, Ning Erzi immediately reported the situation to his battalion commander Zhang Jinsong, and after ten minutes, the entire battalion of the reconnaissance battalion arrived.

Zhang Jinsong reported the situation to the regiment commander Li Yong, and asked for instructions to attack immediately, there was only one company of the enemy stationed at the tent station, and there was no arrival of our army, and with the combat effectiveness of the reconnaissance battalion, there was no problem in taking down the enemy of this company.

The regiment commander Li Yong immediately agreed to Zhang Jinsong's plan, but told him to destroy the enemy while also protecting the staff and equipment of the station from being damaged, this station is about to become our service, so the safety of all kinds of equipment and personnel is very important, and it is also necessary to pay attention to whether there are other enemy troops in other directions, and the main force of the regiment will also arrive immediately.

It was during the day to fight Fufeng and Qishan, and there was only one company of defenders at this tent station, so there was no need to use any deterrent methods, and the surprise attack would achieve a good and sudden effect, which was the flexible use of tactics.

After receiving the order, the reconnaissance battalion rushed over, and Ning Erzi opened the door of the house that was still on with one kick, only to see several Kuomintang soldiers drinking and bragging in the clouds.

Ning Erzi yelled: "Listen, we are the People's Liberation Army, don't move, raise your hands, whoever moves will kill whom." ”

These guys who were drinking were still a little stunned when the door was opened, and as soon as the door opened, the cold wind blew, and Ning Erzi shouted again, and the wine was basically sober.

Most of the seven or eight soldiers who drank obediently raised their hands, only one guy may have burned his head with alcohol, and he pushed away a few wine bottles and wanted to get a gun, how could Ning Erzi give him a chance to take a gun, the Tangmu submachine gun in his hand was aimed at this guy's head and shot a point.

At a distance of four or five meters, the three bullets hit the head of this person very accurately, and the bullets could not withstand the force of the bullet's kinetic energy explosion before they could drill out, and they all lifted off the bridge of the nose, and the whole head came from the front with a big cover, and the red and white brains and bone fragments collapsed into the bodies of several soldiers who were drinking together, and the corpses slipped out of the stool to the ground.

The wine and food that the soldiers who had just drunk and ate immediately spit it out, and several people knelt on the ground with weak legs: "The People's Liberation Army spares life, the People's Liberation Army spares life." ”

Ning Erzi ignored these guys, told the soldiers behind him to put away their weapons, and everyone was escorted outside, and then quickly came out of this room and ran to other rooms.

As soon as the gunfire rang out here, several gunshots came out from the next room one after another, and the sporadic gunfire also subsided after a short time, and most of the soldiers of an infantry company of the Kuomintang stationed in the tent were asleep, and they were completely blindfolded when they encountered the sudden attack of the reconnaissance battalion, and they were captured without much resistance at all, and only a few stubborn officers were directly killed by the soldiers, and the whole battle process did not take more than 20 minutes.

At this time, the regiment commander Li Yong and the brigade of the independent regiment also arrived quickly, and Zhang Jinsong hurriedly reported: "One infantry company of the enemy was completely annihilated, and only two of the reconnaissance battalion were slightly wounded, and there were no sacrifices." ”

Several battles in a row were fought by the reconnaissance battalion, Fufeng, Qishan, and this tent were all like this, not only the casualties and the results were great, which made the cadres and soldiers of other battalions very envious, especially Li Jiangguo, who kept muttering: "The battle was finished before we came up, and the reconnaissance battalion is now the big red man of the regiment commander, and it is more popular than our infantry battalion." ”

In fact, other battalion commanders and instructors also have the same thing on Li Jiangguo's mind, but they didn't say it like the big-mouthed Li Jiangguo, let the reconnaissance battalion do everything, and what else do you want our infantry battalion to do, the regiment commander doesn't know what's wrong these days, and always uses Zhang Jinsong's reconnaissance battalion to attack first.

He Cuihua, the deputy commander of the baggage battalion and the commander of the fifth battalion, was even more resentful, and originally wanted to fight a few more battles while Wang Laohu had not come back, and he had passed the addiction of the commander of the main infantry battalion first, but these few times were the faces of the reconnaissance battalion, and the acting fifth battalion did not let go of a single shot, she followed behind Li Yong and muttered: "These battles have been fought, the fifth battalion is no different from watching the excitement, it is not as good as other battalions, how many shots can be fired." ”

Li Yong ignored the nonsense of Li Jiangguo and He Cuihua, asked Zhang Jinsong to put his guard on guard, and then sent someone to occupy all the areas around the station within five kilometers, and he took the regimental guard company to the operation duty room of the station.

There were two staff members in the operation duty room of the station, one operation attendant and one field attendant, who were already a little frightened at this time, and when they saw Li Yong who walked in, an older one stood up, and said with trembling lips: "Ladies and gentlemen, we are all staff members of the station, not soldiers, I don't know what kind of army it is?" ”

Li Yong smiled and said to the two people: "Don't be afraid, you know that you are not soldiers, we are the People's Liberation Army, and the discipline of the People's Liberation Army should have been heard, and the Kuomintang soldiers in a company outside have been completely eliminated by us, I hope that the staff at your station will still work as usual, and inform us in time if there is any situation, I don't know if the comrades can do this." ”

"It will be done, it will be done." The two people in the duty room agreed one after another. Li Yong sent a few soldiers to let the staff lead the way, and the stationmaster also brought over.

Looking at the frightened stationmaster, Li Yong hurriedly comforted him and said, we are the People's Liberation Army is the Eighth Road, what do you have to be afraid of, what should you do, arrange the passenger, freight, shunting, loading and unloading and other types of personnel at the station, go to work as usual, and the PLA will ensure that their safety is no problem.

As soon as Li Yong said this, the stationmaster and a few staff members were stable, and the operation attendant said that a train was coming soon, what should we do.
