Eight hundred and ninetieth chapters maintain unique advantages
After this period of attack, Gao Jiu and others had figured out a certain rule, and there was no need for him to stay here for such a small action, so he left behind the special war squadron they brought, and cooperated with Yang Jiong and others to continue to destroy the railway line. He and Wang Zhankui and others returned to Taohua Mountain.
This time, the Lunan Military Region seized two trucks of supplies. They kept all of these supplies, but they took out half of the supplies according to the value of the supplies and gave them 120,000 oceans to Gao Jiu to express their gratitude.
Gao Jiu was not polite and accepted it. Although the money was not much, it could at least make up for the losses of the guerrillas.
In order to open up the Jinpu Railway, Tu Feiyuan tried his best to do so, and for this, he also took up two divisions of the Kwantung Army, plus a chariot brigade.
Unexpectedly, the Jinpu Railway was cut off again. He was very angry. He sent telegrams to the North China Front Army and the Central China Front Army, telling them that the railway must be safe, and that they will be responsible for the problems in their jurisdiction. If the railway line cannot be safeguarded, he will hold them accountable.
After receiving the order from Tu Feiyuan, the North China Front Army and the Central China Front Army attached great importance to it. They sent large forces to strengthen protection along the railway. However, this was useless. The underground party anti-Japanese armed forces and the Taohuashan guerrillas were elusive. They were always monitoring the Japanese army's actions and attacked as long as they seized the fighter plane.
Destruction is always much easier than building. The bunkers and railways that the Japanese army worked hard to build for a long time, and the enemy could completely destroy them in less than a second with explosives.
In this way, the Japanese army was exhausted and the railway line was still not connected.
Tu Feiyuan was very dissatisfied with this, and he told the Japanese army that they must find ways to deal with the hateful attackers.
In recent times, the underground party anti-Japanese armed forces and Taohuashan guerrillas launched an attack in Jiangsu. The Japanese army in Xuzhou were at a loss and they had to ask Tu Feiyuan for tactical guidance.
Doiyuan asked about Hamada Yoshihiro and General Haneda's experience in dealing with guerrillas. Based on years of research on the guerrillas in Takujima Taohuashan, Hamada Yoshihiro came up with a vicious plan and taught the troops of the Central China Front through Doiyuan.
That night, a guerrilla team temporarily formed by the Lunan Military Region launched a destructive attack on the Japanese railway line at night. They saw an unfinished bunker on the edge of the railway, igniting a fire inside, and three Japanese soldiers were cooking fires there.
The soldiers of the underground anti-Japanese armed forces quietly approached the bunker, took out grenades, and prepared to throw them into the enemy bunker and destroy them.
A company commander who led the team suddenly realized something was wrong. The three Japanese soldiers stood beside the fire, and their postures remained unmoved. A thought suddenly appeared in the company commander's mind: "Scarecrow. That's a scarecrow wearing a Japanese military uniform."
The company commander guessed correctly. The three Japanese soldiers were indeed scarecrows. They put on Japanese military uniforms to lure guerrillas.
The company commander realized that the problem was serious and hurriedly ordered a retreat.
Unfortunately, it was too late. Japanese soldiers had already appeared from all directions. They surrounded the underground party officers and soldiers.
Then something worse happened. The Japanese were prepared for a long time. They installed several searchlights at relatively high places on both sides of the railway. After the searchlights were turned on, the officers and soldiers of the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces were exposed to the enemy at once.
"Dadadadadada, Pingping Ping Pong" The Japanese machine guns and rifles fired together, and more than 20 underground party officers and soldiers were immediately shot and injured.
Faced with such a crisis, the company commander of the underground party was also very decisive and ordered all the officers and soldiers of the company to rush in one direction.
The Japanese soldiers saw the underground party officers and soldiers rushing over and concentrate their firepower to shoot at them, and soldiers kept falling in pools of blood.
The company commander's left shoulder and left arm were injured, and he continued to rush forward.
The soldiers followed him to shoot and drop bombs, constantly rushing hard against the enemy's rain of bullets.
The enemy troops who blocked them also suffered considerable casualties under the attack of the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces.
The Japanese army surrounded them from all sides, and from this side alone, the troops were insufficient after all.
The anti-Japanese armed soldiers finally broke out of the encirclement.
The Japanese chased their backs with searchlights and shot, and the soldiers who rushed out were still falling down.
The company commander turned his head and fired a few shots at the enemy's searchlight, knocking off a nearby searchlight. The searchlights arranged in other directions were a bit far away from here, and the light suddenly dimmed. The underground party officers and soldiers took advantage of the situation to run forward.
The Japanese soldiers chased each other reluctantly, so the company commander invited several soldiers to stay and block. Under the cover of the company commander and others, the soldiers who broke out into the encirclement finally disappeared into the darkness of the night.
Seeing that the Japanese soldiers could no longer catch up with other underground party officers and soldiers, they surrounded the company commander and others who were fighting and blocking.
After a fierce battle, most of the soldiers died, leaving only the company commander and a soldier who were still fighting back tenaciously.
The company commander's shooting skills were very accurate, and the Japanese soldiers who were trying to rush up were constantly knocked to the ground.
Seeing that the Japanese soldiers continued to fight like this, they had too many casualties, so they fired grenades at the company commander and the soldier.
The company commander and the soldier continued to shoot, and the grenade exploded nearby, and the two died heroically.
In this battle, the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces suffered heavy losses. A total of 76 officers and soldiers, including the company commander, died.
On the same night, the Japanese soldiers adopted the same tactics, and the officers and soldiers of the underground anti-Japanese armed forces of another company suffered great losses, and the number of casualties reached more than 60.
After the Japanese guarding the railway adopted such an ambush tactic, the underground anti-Japanese armed forces could not think of a better way to deal with the Japanese army. The attack on the Jinpu Railway had to temporarily stop, and the Jinpu Railway was reopened to traffic again.
The troops of the Shandong Military Region suffered a loss. The underground party leader and Gao Hong sent a telegram to Gao Jiu, telling the story of the Japanese army changing its tactics, hoping that Gao Jiu could help.
Gao Jiu was a little interested in the Japanese tricks and decided to take action himself to break the Japanese's night ambush tactics.
Gao Jiu, Wang Zhankui and others led two squadrons to more than 300 members of the Taohuashan guerrillas and set off with 240mm heavy mortars.
After they arrived in the southeastern Shandong area, under the arrangement of Gao Hong and Yang Jiong, they moved into a village and prepared to destroy the Jinpu Railway at night. If they encountered an ambush from the Japanese army, they would attack it.
The reason why the underground party leader and Gao Hong invited Gao Jiu to help was because he knew that he had unique night vision ability, which had an overwhelming advantage in night battles.
In fact, with the scientific knowledge mastered by Gao Jiu and the current technological level of the Golden Triangle, infrared night vision equipment can be produced. However, Gao Jiu does not intend to do this. If this night vision equipment is produced, no one can guarantee whether it will fall into the hands of the enemy. Once the enemy masters the night vision equipment, Gao Jiu's advantage in the night battle will be greatly weakened. This situation is not something Gao Jiu is willing to see.
That night, Gao Jiu and others came to the railway line on the Jiangsu territory again.
According to the information provided by the Shandong Military Region, we will find places where the Japanese army built bunkers during the day.
When the team was 1,200 meters away from the target, the team stopped.
Gao Jiu carefully observed around. Gao Hong and Yang Jiong also came this time, and both took telescopes to observe carefully at the place where the Japanese army built bunkers during the day. There were no lights on the railway line, no fires, and no discoveries at all.
The report they received was that the Japanese army lit a fire in the bunker and installed a scarecrow, deliberately attracting underground anti-Japanese armed forces to attack.
This time there was no firelight, so there should be no ambush from the Japanese army.
Gao Jiu observed carefully for a while and said, "The Japanese were indeed ambushing. They were ambushing 1,600 meters in front of the left.
1800 meters to the front right and 420 meters to the front left. Each place has about one infantry squadron. There are three people in the front right, which should be the lurking whistle of the Japanese army. The ambushing Japanese army seems to be an infantry squadron of the Japanese army."
Gao Hong and Yang Jiong heard that the Japanese army was arranged in this way, so they understood that because the underground anti-Japanese armed forces launched attacks in the past few days, they all came from the southwest. Therefore, the Japanese army set up ambushes in the other three places, leaving three lurking whistles in the southwest. They must have radio communication equipment in their hands so that they could inform the Japanese army ambushing other directions at any time.
According to the situation on the battlefield, Gao Jiu set up the corresponding combat plan and immediately issued combat orders.
According to Gao Jiu's order, Wang Zhankui, Li Chengwu, Ning Wen and Ning Wu each led 100 guerrillas to ambush the three ambush points of the Japanese army according to the direction designated by Gao Jiu. Gao Hong and the head of the underground party led the guerrilla artillery troops to advance to the right front.
When he reached a distance of two hundred meters from the three Japanese hiding whistles, Gao Jiu asked everyone to stop first and continued to touch forward by himself.
Gao Jiu arrived at a place 80 meters away from the Japanese army's lurking whistle and stopped. He raised his sniper rifle equipped with a silencer and shot at the Japanese army's lurking whistle one by one. After silently eliminating the Japanese army's lurking whistle, he came to the place where everyone was staying.
Everyone continued to move forward, passing the location of the Japanese army's lurking outpost, and continued to approach the railway line.
When they arrived at three locations roughly equal to the Japanese ambush, the artillery began to set up artillery.
The artillery aimed the guns at the Japanese army in three places. Each group of artillery consisted of two heavy mortars and six ordinary mortars. Gao Jiu issued fire orders respectively, and the artillery adjusted the artillery according to the data provided by Gao Jiu.
Gao Hong and Yang Jiong both knew Gao Jiu's magic, but he was able to accurately detect the enemy at night, and conduct accurate range measurements, calculate artillery shooting elements, which still shocked them. At the same time, he was envious of Gao Jiu. With such ability, no enemy is an opponent.
About five minutes later, Wang Zhankui, Li Chengwu, Ning Wen, and Ning Wu all reported to Gao Jiu that they had reached the designated position. Gao Jiu issued an order to open fire to the artillery.
"Bangbangbangbang." With a muffled sound, a group of shells flew out of the muzzle and flew towards the predetermined target.
The Japanese army responsible for the ambush mission is an infantry squadron of the Xuzhou Railway Garrison. These days, they have set up ambush along the railway every night. Since they successfully attacked the underground party anti-Japanese armed forces that came to attack, it has been relatively quiet in recent days and no night attacks have occurred.
The Japanese officers and soldiers believed that the attackers would not come again. Although they set up ambush, their defense was extremely relaxed, and many soldiers simply took a nap there.
Suddenly, the unique sharp whistling sound of mortar shells flying came from the sky. The Japanese officers and soldiers all had great combat experience. It could be heard that these shells were flying towards them.
So they lay tightly on the ground, covering their heads, hoping to avoid the damage caused by the explosion of the shells.
Tom, shells fell into the enemy group accurately.
If ordinary mortar shells explode at close range, the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground have a higher probability of survival.
However, the 240mm heavy mortar shell is extremely powerful, and even if the Japanese soldiers lie on the ground, they still cannot survive within a radius of more than ten meters.
After the explosion, most of the Japanese officers and soldiers who were ambushing there were killed and injured. The remaining Japanese soldiers fired at the location where the fire was generated when the mortar gun was fired. Although they were far away from the guerrilla artillery position, they still instinctively shot in that direction.
The fire generated by the muzzle fire exposed their targets, and the guerrillas who were ambushing behind them used sniper rifles to eliminate the enemy troops they could see one by one.
After this attack, the Japanese army was already very little left. They had already discovered that there were enemy ambushing behind them. The Japanese army did not dare to shoot again, so they could only lie tightly on the ground.
This is still useless. Gao Jiu commanded the artillery to continue bombarding the alive Japanese soldiers.
The Japanese finally collapsed. They jumped up from the ground and fled towards Xuzhou without caring about it.
During the escape, they encountered a blow from the Taohua Mountain guerrillas led by Li Chengwu who was ambushed in the direction of Xuzhou, and wiped out some of the enemies.
Unfortunately, it was too dark, and seven or eight Japanese soldiers fled in the end.
In fact, Gao Jiu could catch up with these Japanese soldiers and eliminate them one by one, but Gao Jiu planned not to do so. He was willing to leave some survivors for the Japanese and let them go back to report.
He believed that after receiving the report, the Japanese superiors could determine that the Taohuashan guerrillas had been here based on what happened on the battlefield.
Gao Jiu believed that after this attack, the Japanese soldiers would no longer dare to use the tactic of ambushing at night to deal with the night attacks of underground party guerrillas.
