Gao Jiu listened in detail, and Cui Zhenshan, commander of the Fourth Military Sub-district of the Eighth Route Army Hebei Central Military Region, and others, proposed his own combat plan.

Such a combat plan is unimaginable and impossible for Cui Zhenshan and others.

They all felt that it was too risky, but when they saw Gao Jiu's confident look, they couldn't help but feel excited and decided to take the risk of following Gao Jiu to do something.

After agreeing on the combat plan, Gao Jiu and others set off in advance according to the plan.

After Gao Jiu left, Cui Zhenshan, Wang Shuanzi, Yu Tianming and others led the troops to set off.

On the way, Yu Tianming felt very uneasy. He said, "Commander, Mr. Gao's plan is too risky. If the Japanese and puppet troops discovered our whereabouts and sent troops to surround us, it would be too dangerous."

Wang Shuanzi didn't think so. He said excitedly: "We are very skilled and brave. We dare not think about it, and the Japanese would never have imagined that we dared to ambush under their noses. I think we can do it."

Cui Zhenshan has a heavy responsibility. This time he brought out all the family assets of the entire Fourth Military Sub-district. If there is an unexpected situation, he really can't explain it.

However, when they thought of seizing a strengthening weapon from the Japanese army, although they could not take away the cannons, the infantry weapons were more than enough to equip their entire Fourth Military Sub-district, and the idea of ​​getting rich still defeated the worries in their hearts.

He said: "This Master Gao Jiu is invincible. In the Taohua Mountain surrounded by tens of thousands of Japanese, people can still come out and run to our Hebeizhong to fight the Japanese. Who can imagine such a result?

There are only a hundred people, so they dare to fight the Japanese reinforcement wing alone. So many of us follow Gao Jiu to fight, what are you worried about?"

In fact, Yu Tianming also hoped that this would be the result. After hearing everyone say this, he stopped saying anything and continued to rush.

Starting from Xiaolizhuang in Zhengding and reaching Meihua Town, the expected ambush, is more than 30 kilometers away. If a troops with thousands of people take a country road, they have to pass through four villages. There are many traitors in these four villages. One of them has a gun tower of the Japanese, so they cannot hide the whereabouts of the troops.

Gao Jiu's marching plan was even more outrageous. He asked thousands of people from the Hebei Central Military Region to walk directly on the highway and marched on the highway in a swagger. He said that this would be safe.

Gao Jiu’s method sounds incredible, but it really makes sense.

By marching along the highway, you can avoid those villages, but you are likely to encounter Japanese and puppet troops on the highway.

Gao Jiu believed that in this war-torn era, people were afraid of danger, and few people would travel at night. Therefore, the chances of ordinary people appearing on the road at night are not high.

As for the Japanese and puppet troops, they were more afraid of attacks, so the possibility of a small group of Japanese and puppet troops operating at night was not very high.

In the Hebei Plain, especially along the highway from Peiping to Shijiazhuang, is a relative model area of ​​Japanese security. Most of the troops of the Eighth Route Army Hebei Military Region operate in remote mountainous areas and rarely appear in this area. In this area, the Japanese and puppet troops rarely have large-scale combat operations. Therefore, it is not normal to mobilize large-scale Japanese and puppet troops, and it is impossible for large-scale Japanese and puppet troops to advance on the highway every day. Therefore, the possibility of encountering large-scale Japanese and puppet troops on the road is extremely small.

Even if we happen to encounter the Japanese and puppet troops, there will not be so many people, and the scale will not exceed one or two squadrons. The Eighth Route Army has four or five thousand people here, so there is no need to worry about major losses. It’s just that the combat plan cannot be carried out as scheduled.

In order to avoid unexpected situations, Gao Jiu also took precautionary measures and sent some members of the Taohuashan guerrillas in front and behind the marching queue of the Fourth Military Sub-district, respectively, to take a car and serve as cover. They all speak Japanese, and when they encounter small groups of Japanese and puppet troops, they will solve them on the spot. When they encounter large groups of Japanese and puppet troops, they can also call the police in advance so that the main forces of the Fourth Military Sub-district will not suffer losses.

As for encountering sporadic passing people on the road, they will temporarily detain them and wait until the ambush is over before letting them go.

With such measures, the troops in the Fourth Military Sub-district marched seemed to be very popular, but there was no need to worry that the news would be leaked.

As Gao Jiu expected, the troops of the Fourth Military Sub-district met with sporadic people along the way, and there was also a Japanese motorcycle. They were all detained, without any impact on the marching of the Fourth Military Sub-district. The troops marched on the road, which was naturally much more comfortable than walking on the country road, and the marching speed was much faster.

At two o'clock in the morning, the troops of the Fourth Military Sub-district had approached the ambush site. They stopped on the road to rest, waiting for news from Gao Jiu.

Until now, Cui Zhenshan and Wang Shuanzi have been very convinced, and they are full of expectations for the next ambush.

Yu Tianming was still a little nervous. He kept looking forward with a telescope. He could not see anything, but he still subconsciously did this.

He was still a little worried and said, "There is a small team of Japanese soldiers in Meizhuang Town, and half a squadron of Peace Army (the organization of the puppet army in Hebei region). Can't Jiuye and the others make any mistakes?"

Wang Shuanzi said, "Old Yu, what are you worried about? The situation of our march along the way proves that what the Ninth Master said is right. Do you dare to think about such a march in the past?"

Yu Tianming said embarrassedly: "You are right, I believe in Master Jiu, but it is too difficult to deal with so many Japanese and puppet troops in a quiet manner."

To be honest, Cui Zhenshan was also a little worried, and he said, "The same thing is true, skilled and brave. Since Mr. Gao Jiu said that, I believe he can do it."

His words were to comfort Tianming, and in fact, he was also to comfort himself, because he couldn't understand how Gao Jiu and others could deal with all the Japanese and puppet troops in Meizhuang Town without a single shot.

Besides, Gao Jiu and others were riding along the road by car. They had arrived at Meizhuang Town at 10:30 last night. Gao Jiu once again asked a guide sent by the Fourth Military Sub-district. The guide was a local from Meizhuang Town. He asked him to introduce what he knew to Li Chengwu, Shi Jianlong, Liang Shihu and others, and once again clarified the next combat operations.

For Gao Jiu, it is not too difficult to sneak into the town and solve the Japanese and puppet troops inside. However, he still has a problem that needs to be solved, that is, before destroying these Japanese and puppet troops, he must be familiar with the situation of the Japanese and puppet troops. Otherwise, before the Japanese artillery troops pass here tomorrow, they will definitely call the Japanese and ask about the situation. If they cannot deal with the Japanese army normally, the Japanese army will definitely send troops to investigate the situation in advance, and the ambush plan will not be implemented.

Gao Jiu and others took a car through the middle of Meizhuang Town, and then turned around and returned, pretending to be the Japanese troops heading from Dingzhou.

After entering Meizhuang Town, Gao Jiu took Ning Wen and Ning Wu toward the barracks of the local Japanese garrison.

Lieutenant Tanaka, the Japanese squad leader stationed in Meizhuang Town, saw a Japanese squadron coming, and hurried and enthusiastically received the reception.

Gao Jiu said that he was the combat staff of the Japanese Second Heavy Artillery Brigade, because the troops will pass through Meizhuang Town tomorrow. For safety reasons, they will stay here until the troops of the brigade pass by tomorrow before leaving.

The captain of Tanaka knew about the news that the Japanese Second Heavy Artillery Brigade was about to pass, and he was not suspicious and warmly welcomed Gao Jiu and others.

Gao Jiujin was very talkative, had a cordial conversation with Lieutenant Tanaka, and gave Lieutenant Tanaka a pack of cigarettes. Lieutenant Tanaka felt very friendly when he saw that Your Excellency the Major was so approachable. The two of them chatted very well and even drank a small wine.

In this way, Gao Jiu learned a lot from his mouth that he wanted to know, especially his accent.

Second Lieutenant Tanaka belongs to the 142nd Division of the North China Expeditionary Army. Second Lieutenant Tanaka complains that he is alone in a small countryside place like Meizhuang Town, and he hopes to be transferred to a big city.

Gao Jiu said that he had a close relationship with Hejian Dazu, who had been transferred to Shanghai. After he returned from Shandong this time, he could help Lieutenant Tanaka to be transferred to Peiping. Lieutenant Tanaka was very happy and deliberately cursed Gao Jiu.

After it was late at night, he insisted on giving his room to Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu said that he would hit it off at first sight and wanted to sleep with him and continue chatting, so the two lived in the same room.

At 1 a.m., Gao Jiu took action. Poor Lieutenant Tanaka went to see their Aunt Amaterasu in his dream. He would never be able to go to Peking City in his entire life.

The people from the Taohuashan guerrillas lived in the Japanese barracks. When they saw the lights in Gao Jiu's room and turned them on and off three times in a row, they started to move. More than fifty Japanese soldiers followed their squad leader to meet Aunt Amaterasu in their sleep.

After dealing with the Japanese army, Gao Jiu called the captain of the Peace Army stationed in Meizhuang Town and said that there was an emergency action and asked him to gather all the security forces to come to the Japanese barracks.

The squadron leader of the puppet army heard that it was Lieutenant Tanaka's voice. He did not dare to neglect, so he hurriedly gathered all the puppet troops and brought them into the Japanese barracks, and was then disarmed.

Then, under the leadership of the puppet army squadron leader, Li Chengwu and others controlled all the traitors in the town office. In this way, the entire Meizhuang Town was controlled by the Taohua Mountain guerrillas without any guns or bullets.

At 2:40 in the morning, Cui Zhenshan and others saw a car coming on the road ahead. They knew that it must be the troops of Gao Jiu and others, so they sent people to stand in the road and wait for each other to come.

Sure enough, Ning Wen came, and he said, "Commander Cui, my Jiuye has taken down Meizhuang Town. Please take the troops there."

Cui Zhenshan and others were very excited to hear that Gao Jiu and others really took down Meizhuang Town.

Yu Tianming asked in disbelief: "Nothing happened, right?"

Ning Wen is now very similar to Gao Jiu. He said lightly: "What can happen? Without a single shot and an ammunition, all the Japanese and puppet troops, including the traitors in the town, have been solved."

Cui Zhenshan and others had to accept that they were a small team of Japanese soldiers, half a squadron of puppet troops, and those traitors, who had less than 100 people in total, were solved silently.

Yu Tianming was still a little curious, and he asked, "There are no casualties in your guerrillas, right?"

Ning Wen still said lightly: "No."

Cui Zhenshan gave a thumbs up and praised: "The Taohua Mountain Guerrillas are indeed well-known."

Wang Shuanzi said: "You Taohua Mountain guerrillas are so powerful. Are you the most elite troops brought out this time?"

He saw that Li Chengwu's troops were well-equipped. These people not only knew how to use various weapons skillfully, but also drove cars and everyone could speak Japanese. This was already a symbol of the elite troops for him, and he was very envious of this.

Although Ning Wen was unwilling to show off, he still couldn't help but say: "This time, the troops brought by Jiu Ye were from our Taohua Mountain outside of our Taohua Mountain. They are far behind our Taohua Mountain special forces."

"Wow," everyone was surprised and their chins almost fell off. In their eyes, Li Chengwu's army was already extremely elite. Unexpectedly, it was just the peripheral troops of the Taohua Mountain guerrillas. How elite the main force would be? It was simply unimaginable.

Cui Zhenshan said enviously: "After this battle, please help us train such a unit."

Ning Wen smiled faintly and said nothing.

Wang Shuanzi was also very much looking forward to having such a special forces team. When he saw Ning Wen's expression, he asked in confusion: "Brother Ning Wen, is your Jiu Master unwilling to help us?"

He disagreed with Ning Wen's attitude, thinking that they worked hard to help Gao Jiu and others in war, so they should give him such face.

Ning Wen said sincerely: "The training of special forces members is very difficult. A special forces member consumes a normal month, and at least two hundred oceans. When encountering combat operations, it will cost more money."

What Ning Wen said is not exaggerated at all. The value of a special forces member's equipment, such as sniper rifles, thugs, engineer shovels, time bombs, telescopes, daggers, and other special forces equipment, costs at least 300 oceans. The various ammunitions required for training, as well as food and nutrition costs, even if they are trained to drive, gasoline is consumed. In short, various expenses are huge, plus the salary of the special forces members of the monthly salary, the large rewards after receiving meritorious service, etc., are not affordable to the troops of the Fourth Military Sub-district.

After Ning Wen told the reason, Cui Zhenshan and others kept shaking their heads. They really didn't have the ability to support such a force.

Not long after, Cui Zhenshan and others brought the troops into Meizhuang Town. After entering the Japanese barracks, they immediately felt a surprise.

In the middle of the yard of the Japanese barracks, all the captured Japanese and puppet troops were piled up, including a mortar, two grenade launchers, 4 light machine guns, 41 Type 38 rifles, 86 made in Hanyang, 4 wrench guns, two turtle boxes, and a large number of various ammunition.

Cui Zhenshan and others talked to Gao Jiu, and the light of their eyes was paying attention to the weapons and ammunition.

Finally, they heard Li Chengwu say, "My Ninth Master has given you all the weapons and ammunition in the yard."

Although Wang Shuanzi and others had already had such expectations, because Gao Jiu had said that they would give them all the seized weapons and ammunition. However, when they heard that they were really given to them, they still felt overjoyed.

Although many of the Eighth Route Army soldiers were holding spears and big swords, they usually also conduct shooting training, and they still know the basic use of weapons. With so many weapons added at once, their combat effectiveness has been greatly improved.

The commander of the Fourth Military Sub-district Force who came with Cui Zhenshan, as well as the commander of the Second Regiment, the political commissar, and the captains and political commissars of various county brigades were also very jealous when they saw these weapons and ammunition, and they looked at Cui Zhenshan with eager eyes to see how he distributed them.

Cui Zhenshan has now had full confidence in Gao Jiu. He said: "These weapons and ammunition are not enough. First, give it to the first regiment. There will be a whole regiment of Japanese soldiers coming tomorrow. We will ensure that everyone has a share of those weapons and ammunition."

Wang Shuanzi was very happy. The others were full of expectations for the soon-to-be seized of a large number of weapons and ammunition, and they stopped saying anything.

Next, according to the plan formulated in advance, Cui Zhenshan sent a county brigade to transfer all the people in Meizhuang Town. In order to smoothly transfer these people, Gao Jiu took out another part of the ocean and sent five yuan to each household. He also promised that if their houses were damaged during the war, the Eighth Route Army would compensate them. Of course, Gao Jiu also paid the money.

When the people heard that there was a war here, they were very scared and wanted to hide. Now there was a lot of ocean to take, so they successfully obeyed the arrangements of the Eighth Route Army and left Meizhuang Town under the escort of the county brigade.

Then, Cui Zhenshan and others lie in the main force of the military sub-district in Meizhuang Town.

The next morning, the phone rang in the Japanese barracks in Meizhuang Town. It was the Japanese army in Dingzhou City asking about the situation in Meizhuang Town.

Gao Jiu imitated the accent of Lieutenant Tanaka and reported his safety to the other party, and the other party conveyed the situation to the Japanese commander of the Second Artillery Brigade.

Soon after, the Japanese Second Artillery Brigade drove out of Dingzhou City.

The special forces members who had already guarded outside Dingzhou City immediately notified Gao Jiu by telegram.

Gao Jiu said to Cui Zhenshan and others: "The troops of the Japanese Second Heavy Artillery Brigade have come."

Cui Zhenshan immediately issued an order, and the First Regiment, the Second Regiment of the Fourth Military Sub-district, and the various county brigades were ready for battle.

Meizhuang Town is only 25 kilometers away from Dingzhou City. At 9:10 am, the Japanese vanguard came first.

The Japanese vanguard consisted of three motorcycles and a truck, with a total of more than 30 Japanese soldiers, and the leader was a captain.

After entering Meizhuang Town, they saw Gao Jiu and others greeting on the roadside. After asking about the situation, they continued to drive forward.

The Japanese never dreamed that under their noses, there was a huge army of more than 4,000 people buried.

Twenty minutes later, the main Japanese army troops drove over, and heavy trucks dragged heavy artillery, rumbling, and the earth shook.

The Japanese convoy finally drove into Meizhuang Town, the closest one was only 20 meters away from the Eighth Route Army soldiers who were ambushed in the buildings on both sides of the road.

The soldiers held the swords and guns in their hands tightly and waited for the order to attack.
