Chapter 814: To capture Gao Jiu alive
The members of the Taohua Mountain guerrillas all have a high degree of consciousness. After the guerrillas escaped from danger, they did not continue to escape. After suffering such a big loss, they must figure out the origin of this enemy.
Therefore, he quietly returned and secretly observed the situation of the enemy troops who had attacked them.
He followed the enemy all the way to their barracks. After inquiring, he found out that this powerful enemy was the second division of the 6th Army of the Huang Jiejun. The division commander was Cui Mingjiu, who was born in a bandit, and he actually dared to be called Jiuye.
The guerrillas returned to Luoyang City and reported to their superiors. Li Chengwu brought him to see Gao Jiu.
Gao Jiu heard that he had suffered such a big loss in the hands of the puppet army. This was unprecedented for the Taohuashan guerrillas. He couldn't help but become furious and slapped him on the desk.
Gao Jiu's force was so fierce. This time he was really angry again. He had no control over the strength he used. With a "click", the heavy desk was actually slapped in half by him, and the things on the table were also spread all over the floor.
Jia Liu had never seen Master Jiu get so angry, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Li Chengwu and the guerrillas also knew what Jiu Ye was doing. They knew that he felt sorry for the casualties of the guerrillas, and they couldn't help but respect Jiu Ye even more.
Gao Jiu said angrily: "Jia Liu, go and call all the people in charge."
Jia Liu hurriedly ran out.
After a while, Zhang Quan, Wang Zhankui, Guo Hengming, Du Shengxi and others all came in.
On the way, everyone had already heard Jia Liu tell the whole story, and they were furious. When they saw Gao Jiu, they asked to lead their troops to destroy this group of dog traitors who had made trouble on Tai Sui's head.
Gao Jiu was really angry this time. He said, "We must avenge our brothers and use the blood of dog traitors to pay tribute to the heroic spirits of the sacrificed brothers. This time I want to wipe out the Second Division of the puppet army, and I don't want a captive either."
Gao Jiu's words met the appetites of all the brothers. Everyone was ready to wait for Gao Jiu to give the order to set off.
Cui Mingjiu received a report that his men would destroy 11 members of the Taohua Mountain Guerrillas next time, and felt very proud, thinking that the Taohua Mountain Guerrillas were just like this.
In order to show his achievements and talents, he asked his soldiers to carry the bodies of the Taohua Mountain guerrillas and follow him to the division headquarters of the 39th Division of the Japanese Army.
After asking for the division commander of the 39th Division, he showed the corpses of the Taohua Mountain guerrillas to the division commander with some flaunts.
The 39th Division suffered a loss in Gao Jiu's hands, but he had already received a hint from the commander of the Seventh Army, asking him to attack Luoyang City, and specifically warned him that he was just a gesture and never really attack Luoyang City, otherwise the 39th Division would definitely suffer heavy losses and might even be destroyed.
According to the requirements of the commander of the Seventh Army, this time the puppet army was the leader. He was worried that these puppet troops would not be reliable and prepared to supervise the battle behind the puppet army.
Seeing that Cui Mingjiu had killed so many Taohua Mountain guerrillas, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
He knew that Gao Jiu would definitely not suffer this loss and would definitely retaliate against the puppet troops in a crazy way. Apart from fighting with the Taohua Mountain guerrillas, the puppet troops had no way out at all.
The division commander pretended to be very happy and praised Cui Mingjiu fiercely, saying that he was a hero, and believed that he would definitely be able to defeat the famous Gaojiu in the world and become famous all over the world from now on.
When Cui Mingjiu saw that the division commander valued him so much, he couldn't help but feel proud. He patted his chest and sweared to say that he would definitely destroy the Taohua Mountain Tour Team and capture Gao Jiu alive.
In order to encourage Cui Mingjiu to fight Gao Jiu to death, the 39th Division commander gave Cui Mingjiu a batch of Japanese equipment.
Cui Mingjiu was even happier and returned to his division headquarters happily, summoned his senior officers to discuss and continue to launch an attack on Luoyang City.
At this moment, the roar of an airplane suddenly came from the sky, and then a large number of bombers emerged in the middle of the clouds.
The puppet troops were not aware of the situation within the Japanese army at all, and they did not know that the Japanese air force could no longer participate in the war.
They thought this was a Japanese bomber. Seeing such a huge fleet of aircraft, they thought that the battle would be even better after the guerrillas were bombed, and they were all very happy.
Cui Mingjiu and others temporarily interrupted the meeting and walked into the yard to look into the sky.
Suddenly the bombers dived, and then countless small black dots fell from the sky.
After all, Cui Mingjiu and others were all soldiers and had the necessary military knowledge. He knew very well that the small black spots must be aviation bombs. Although they didn't understand why the Japanese army suddenly bombed them, they all knew to find a place to hide. The entire military camp was in chaos.
After a fierce bombing, the puppet army's barracks were dim and dark.
The huge explosion shook the earth, and an aviation bomb exploded not far from Cui Mingjiu, and he fainted at that time.
When Cui Mingjiu woke up and found that his legs were very painful, he looked carefully and realized that he was pressed on his legs by the collapsed beam. He knew that his calf was broken by feeling.
He let out a howl like a pig slaughter, shouting, asking the soldiers to come and save the people quickly.
The officers and soldiers who were lucky enough to die rescued Cui Mingjiu and tried to find someone to bandage him the wound, but found that the health team base of the accompanying army had been blown up and no medical staff ran out.
They had no choice but to call an ordinary health soldier from the company and simply treat Cui Mingjiu's wounds.
The grassroots health soldiers did not have anesthetics, and Cui Mingjiu couldn't stand the pain, so he asked the Chief of Staff to hurry up and report on the situation of the troops after the air strike, and then sent him to the hospital of the 39th Division of the Japanese Army for treatment.
The chief of staff said in frustration: "The casualties of the troops were very heavy. Although they have not been fully counted, at least thousands of people have been lost. I don't know what the Japanese did. The enemy's planes came to bomb, what did their fighters do for food, and why didn't they intercept them?"
Cui Mingjiu was not so thoughtful, so he ordered the chief of staff to stay and take charge of the troops, and asked someone to quickly carry himself to the Japanese to treat his leg injuries.

At this moment, a combat staff officer ran in. He said in horror: "Report to Master Jiu, the situation is not good. Gao Jiu's Taohua Mountain guerrillas are coming."
When Cui Mingjiu saw his panic, he said dissatisfiedly: "What are you panic? Gao Jiu's Taohua Mountain guerrillas have only a thousand troops. Come on, come here, what's so amazing."
The combat staff shook their heads and said, "Jiu Ye, it's not just the Taohua Mountain guerrillas, but also a large number of Guojun officers and soldiers, with at least tens of thousands of people, which has surrounded us."
Cui Mingjiu became even more angry and said, "You are talking nonsense. Behind us is the defense zone of the 39th Division of the Japanese Army. Why did the enemy surround us? I dare to lie about military information, and Laozi shot you to death."
The combat staff became even more frustrated. He said, "Jiu Master, after the enemy bombed us just now, all the Japanese retreated and gave up our retreat, and were surrounded by the enemy."
It turned out that in order to completely annihilate the Second Division of the Puppet Army, Gao Jiu and others, in addition to the entire Taohuashan guerrillas dispatched the troops in Henan, they also asked Wang Jindong to personally lead the 187th Division to form an encirclement of the Second Division of the Puppet Army.
Most of the bombers sent by Gao Jiu went to bomb the camp of the Second Division of the puppet army, and several bombers dropped some bombs outside the base of the 39th Division of the Japanese Army.
They deliberately did not bomb the Japanese army, but just deterred them.
When the commander of the 39th Division of the Japanese Army saw the actions of the Taohuashan guerrillas, he knew that this was giving them face. They came to fight the puppet army and avenge the dead guerrillas. This was reminding him not to trek into this muddy water, otherwise, the aviation bomb would soon land on his troops.
The division commander had no intention of fighting with Gao Jiu. If he saw this situation, it would be too stupid to be ignorant. When he received a report that the enemy's large group of troops were approaching here, he immediately chose to retreat and did not send anyone to inform the Second Division of the puppet army. This was because he was hoping that these puppet troops could block the Taohuashan guerrillas and cover him.
As a result, Cui Mingjiu and his second puppet army division were confusedly surrounded by the anti-Japanese army.
Cui Mingjiu was very good at fighting. Although he hated the Japanese army for betrayal, he knew that it was not the time to care about this. He ordered everyone who had just heard of the news of the Japanese army's retreat to keep a secret and not let other people know this news, otherwise the morale of the army would definitely be shaken.
Cui Mingjiu issued a series of emergency orders, asking the troops to seize the time to build fortifications and prepare to persevere in waiting for assistance.
He now knew that the 39th Division was unreliable, so he sent a telegram to his direct superior, the Sixth Army Command of the puppet army, and on the other hand, he sent a telegram to the commander of the Seventh Army, requesting reinforcements.
Most of the backbone of the Second Division of the puppet army were old bandits under Cui Mingjiu back then, and they were all brave and good at fighting. They were not panicked when they saw that they were surrounded by the enemy, and immediately urged their subordinates to strengthen their fortifications and prepare to repel the enemy's attack.
The reason why the Second Division of the Puppet Army was confident was that they paid great attention to the training of the troops, especially the intensive training of soldiers. Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the Second Division had basically reached an excellent level of shooting skills.
Now that they have sufficient ammunition, they believe they will be able to repel the enemy's attack and persevere until the arrival of reinforcements.
The officers and soldiers of the puppet army were already a little proud. The officers and soldiers deliberately promoted the incident of killing 11 Taohuashan special forces team members. Therefore, the officers and soldiers were very proud at this time and were very strong in fighting. They were ready to use their precise marksmanship to deal a severe damage to the Taohuashan guerrillas again.
Unfortunately, all the officers and soldiers of the Second Division, including Cui Mingjiu, were wrong.
The Taohua Mountain guerrillas are rich and powerful. The newly-edition 187th Division is also well-equipped and there is an arsenal behind them. They are too lazy to let the soldiers charge in the enemy's rain of bullets and let their cannons speak directly.
The Taohua Mountain Guerrillas carried a large number of artillery, and the number of artillery from the newly compiled 187th Division has reached more than 150.
They were unceremonious and pouring ammunition into the puppet army's positions.
Such fierce firepower caused the puppet troops to fly in flesh and blood. The pride they originally had quickly disappeared under the fierce bombardment, and the entire army fell into panic.
They had no intention of holding their positions and ran around one by one, trying to find a place where they could escape enemy shelling.
Not long after, a roar came from the sky again, and the bomber group of Taohua Mountain guerrillas flew over again.
This time, they not only dropped ordinary aviation bombs, but also spent a lot of money to completely annihilate the puppet army and dropped dozens of giant bombs weighing 623kg on the positions of the puppet army. A large area of no man's land was quickly formed around the location where the bomb exploded.
The anti-Japanese army's armed forces were not in a hurry to launch an attack under the command of Gao Jiu and Wang Jindong.
They just slowly narrowed the encirclement step by step, compressed the puppet troops into a very narrow area, and then used artillery fire and aviation bombs to destroy them again.
Cui Mingjiu is so lucky that he survived in this situation.
He ordered the reporters to desperately call the commander of the Seventh Army of the Japanese Army for help, but unfortunately, there was no reply at all, and the Japanese army had completely given up on them.
Cui Mingjiu was very angry and wanted to stomp the radio station to vent his anger. Unfortunately, his leg was injured and he couldn't use it. So he pulled out his pistol, slammed the radio station, and finally let out a sigh of anger.
Cui Mingjiu had a lot of combat experience. When he saw the enemy's army was so generous, he knew that if this continued, the entire army would be destroyed sooner or later.
So he shouted loudly to the Chief of Staff and asked him to gather troops quickly and prepare for a breakthrough.
He shouted for a while, but he could not see the Chief of Staff.
He asked his subordinates to look for him, and soon someone came over to report that he had seen the chief of staff's body being blown out of shape by a bomb.
Cui Mingjiu asked the people around him to find all the alive officers above the battalion. After about ten minutes, a few people came in a sparse manner. It seemed that the others had been killed.
Cui Mingjiu asked about the situation of the troops. These officers who survived by chance kept shaking their heads. The enemy's artillery fire was so fierce, how could they still have the ability to control the troops?
They couldn't tell how many people were left of their subordinates, but they were sure that there were not many left.
Cui Mingjiu couldn't care about that much, so he asked these people to quickly rectify the troops, gather all the people they could see, and prepare to break through.
