Chapter 310 There is no one!
Since the ambush was arranged, Song Yuping had considered how to wipe out the Japanese troops who were staying in the river in one fell swoop. Song Yuping also encountered this ambush for the first time, and he seemed very cautious when deploying a combat plan.
According to the news sent back by the reconnaissance team, the Japanese river defense forces entering Guxi River were followed by tugboats and kayaks. How to choose a suitable place and completely wiped out the Japanese army.
The previous three harassments were naturally feinted attacks, used to paralyze the Japanese river defense force that invaded. They felt that Dangtu's defenders knew they were coming. But what they could do was to adopt this harassing tactic to slow their speed.
The ambush point is set at this turning point, which is more suitable for the terrain here, even if the river surface is wider. However, because there is a turning point, the water flow here is relatively fast, which is conducive to blocking the river and allowing the gunboat to slowly move.
The result was natural. This river defense force that planned to invade Dangtu through the Guxi River. I really thought that the harassing troops on both sides of the river bank were deliberately slowing down their advance and buying time for the city's defenders to transfer.
It is precisely because of this kind of speculation that even if it is inappropriate to know that the tugboat and the gunboat are too close, the two gunboat commanders felt that it is best to follow the gunboat.
When sailing against the current, if you don’t advance, you will retreat. Now the two gunboats completely lose their ability to protect. They even pose a huge threat to the wooden tugboat behind the gunboat. If they really hit, the tugboat behind them will sweep over and die.
Falling into the river may not necessarily lead to death, but in this rapids, it is also in this winter. I believe every Japanese man knows that the consequences of falling into the river will also cause skin loss if he does not die!
With two gunboats, one completely capsized and floated downstream, while the other gunboat also lost its defense ability. It endured one mortar after another falling from the sky until it also lost its power and floated downward.
Seeing this scene, Song Yuping smiled and said, "Okay, we can let our people go over and clean the battlefield."
The officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion who had been waiting for a long time, as well as young fishing nearby, flew to the river section where they were still under shelling. The blocked bamboo rafts quickly became stepping stones for the offensive troops.
The fishermen who were holding long poles were holding these bamboo rafts off-line and kept approaching the overturning gunboats. Some Japanese troops who climbed onto the bamboo rafts to survive were also killed by officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance troops who were approaching one after another and were directly killed in the bamboo rafts or rivers.
With the two gunboats and tugboats, they were eventually washed to the river beach next to the turning point, and there was no living Japanese man on the entire river except for the dead bodies. For the special forces, it is their purpose to not leave Japanese Japanese to live.
Looking at the corpses of Japanese devils who were dragged ashore one after another, Song Yuping looked at the young people with a pale expression, but smiled and said, "Don't treat these Japanese devils as humans, just treat them as beasts you salvaged from the river.
Although this beast cannot be put into the pot, it is also very valuable. Remember to take all the clothes on these Japanese devils back later. Do you look at the velvet coats and pants worn by the Japanese devils? This thing is very warm and not heavy on them.
Just like this one on the Japanese, I guess you may not be able to earn anything if you fish for half a year. All the clothes on the Japanese are left to you. Go back and change them, wear them yourself or give them to your family, so you can be very decent. Don’t think that they are dead!
As for the other equipment on the Japanese, many people like it in the New Fourth Army, so it will be difficult for you to give it to you for the time being. However, when you have the opportunity to enter the New Fourth Army in the future, I believe you will know that this equipment is good.
I also looked at the two tugboats and there were a lot of canned food and food. I will ask someone to put some for you later. Of course, I have to work hard for you to touch the weapons that the Japanese dropped into the river. We are very short of weapons!"
‘Okay! Please rest assured, Chief, we will definitely do this!’
After Song Yuping said that the clothes and boots on these Japanese devils were given to them. These young people who were also aware of the goods knew very well that the clothes on the Japanese devils were really not good things that money could buy!
As for the clothes worn by dead people, I can’t even eat enough these days, so who cares about this?
Called a reconnaissance company commander, and Song Yuping said directly: "You will be responsible for cleaning the battlefield. According to what I just said, the clothes on these Japanese devils will be given to them later. After that, every young man who helped salvage them will give them a few sets.
The extra ones will be sent to the base together with other supplies. Remember, the machine guns and artillery on the gunboat will be found to be removed by someone. As for the gunboat, it will be dragged back to the middle of the river and sank it."
'yes!'
Two gunboats blocked the river channel. Although it did not affect the direction of the river, it could effectively prevent the Japanese gunboats from entering the Guxi River in the later period. Without towing the gunboats of Shenhe, the Japanese gunboats would not be able to enter Dangtu City.
A reconnaissance company was left to guard the river. Song Yuping led other combatants and soon returned to the location of Dangtu Garrison Camp that retreated into the mountains. Battalion Commander Zhu and others were very concerned about their return.
Just looking at the 38th Gallery on the back of many scouts, Battalion Commander Zhu said happily: "Captain Song, has the Japanese cleaned up?"
‘The two Japanese squadrons and two small gunboats have been solved! However, I left a reconnaissance company there, and many nearby fishermen were salvaging weapons and supplies that fell into the river.
I'll ask Battalion Commander Zhu to make some hot rice and ginger sugar water to send it. As for the seized materials, I'll ask Battalion Commander Zhu to send some people to move it back here later. There are a lot of grain and canned food on the ship, and it will be stored here at that time.'
Battalion Commander Zhu also felt incredible when he heard that the two Japanese squadrons that were attacked were completely wiped out. But he naturally felt happy when he heard that a lot of supplies on the ship had been seized. After all, this camp also had to support a lot of people!
During this temporary camp, led by Battalion Commander Zhu and his commanded garrison troops, Song Yuping also said seriously to Battalion Commander Zhu during the meal: "Captain Zhu, although the river channel is temporarily blocked, it may not be safe.
Most importantly, there is currently a Japanese military brigade that has begun to attack Chuzhou. If the situation in Ma'anshan changes, I believe they will send troops to attack us from northern Anhui.
Therefore, your next task is to ensure the safety of Dangtu. Once you find that a Japanese army is coming from northern Anhui, I hope you will do your best to block the attack and gain time for our troops to transfer.
Here, in addition to your garrison battalion, our guerrilla brigade will also cooperate with you in the battle. If there is any emergency, please notify me in time. In this way, I can let go of my hands and feet on Bowang.
If there are small troops that infiltrate from Bowang, remember what I said before. Don’t fight against the Japanese. All you have to do is to rely on your understanding of the terrain here to hold back these Japanese.
Turn the incoming Japanese brigade into a Japanese brigade, then divide the brigade into squadrons, and finally divide it into small squadrons. Finally, concentrate the troops at your hands, and as long as you feel that it is possible to wipe out the opponent, you will take a bold attack.
Since you came from the teaching corps, I believe that in the battlefield command, you should have a better way than me, a mud-legged person. But there is only one thing to remember, remember not to fight with the Japanese devils, do you understand?"
'Please rest assured, since we have chosen to stay, we will definitely cooperate with your battle. I also hope that if you find any enemy situation ahead, please notify us in time.'
'Don't worry about this! At that time, I will use telegrams or guerrilla brigade members to convey messages to you. But you must also be careful about strangers. The spies of the Japanese are still very insidious!'
After explaining a lot of things, Song Yuping also left a reconnaissance company to cooperate with the local guerrilla brigade to fight. There is a reconnaissance company here. Even if Battalion Commander Zhu wants to make a magic trick, I believe he can deal with it in time.
It’s not that Song Yuping did not believe in Battalion Commander Zhu’s determination to fight the war, but that he felt that he should not give the safety of the flanks to the other party with confidence. Any time he thought about a way out, he would have more hope of life.
When Song Yuping and the rest of the scouts began to march towards the Bowang area, the guerrillas operating in the Bowang area also launched a harassing night attack against the invading Japanese infantry corps.
For the Japanese infantry corps that entered Bowang first, they really felt incredible. The reason was that after they entered Bowang, they found that the villages they passed were empty and there were no people in some small towns.
‘Baga, why don’t there be anyone?’
The Japanese corps captain who led the team into Bowang was very angry and scolded him. For the Japanese army, their supplies were often on-site. But this time, people could not find them, let alone replenish supplies.
‘Captain of the regiment, it seems that these Chinese troops have really transferred the people here. Our search team had checked several villages before and found that although the houses in those villages were locked, they took away all the food inside.
Even the wells used by many villages to fetch water have been temporarily filled. The supplies we are carrying can support for up to five days. Look, are we going to stop for a while and wait for the subsequent main force to come up before setting off?’
Failure to implement on-site supply means that all supplies can only be transported by their baggage troops. They do not know at this moment that the roads they had taken before have become bumpy.
It is estimated that the difficulty of transporting the subsequent materials in is not very great. The most important thing is that the Japanese infantry and rear wing that went deep into the army will become very difficult now even if they want to leave Bowang. Because the special operations team has already set their sights on them.
