Chapter 304 Chu Yunfei's Report
Chapter 304 Chu Yunfei's Report
"Commander, there is a reinforced company of militia over there, and they have sneaked back again."
"Commander, those militiamen are all changing into the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army."
"Commander, there are so many patches on those uniforms..."
"That's not right, Commander. What the Eighth Route Army soldiers wore should be a piece of military uniform hanging among a pile of patches."
Chu Yunfei listened to his guard Sun Ming shouting in shock on the top of the wall.
I was originally feeling sad and angry, but at this moment, I suddenly felt a sense of inexplicable joy.
He and Fang Ligong climbed back onto the roof and took over the telescope to observe.
This was not a big deal, even Chu Yunfei shouted, "This group of Eighth Route Army soldiers are so cunning!"
How can these be called rookie militiamen? They are clearly the most elite troops from the Eighth Route Army.
Having been in contact with the Eighth Route Army for several years, Chu Yunfei is well aware of its situation.
The older the Eighth Route Army soldiers are, the more patches they have on their uniforms.
The more likely it is, the more likely it is that they are the old revolutionaries who participated in the Long March.
These two thousand men were all wearing uniforms that seemed to have nine pockets sewn on them.
Who knows, they really are the elite troops coming from northern Shaanxi to protect Pagoda Mountain.
Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong looked at each other and had similar guesses in their minds.
However, let them report the lack of intelligence in northern Shaanxi to the Second War Zone...
Forget it. We can’t help the Eighth Route Army because it’s a military order that cannot be disobeyed.
But if they were to collude to take advantage of someone's misfortune, they would be despised by them.
The two of them just looked at each other and turned their heads away tacitly, as if they had suddenly forgotten something.
Just as the two of them were distracted, the situation on the battlefield of Cangyun Ridge reversed several times.
The base of Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment is located on a high terrain, and one can clearly see the situation on the Cangyunling battlefield.
First, a squadron of Japanese soldiers launched a feint attack, and then, while the Eighth Route Army's vision was blocked by smoke bombs, they suddenly attacked the position at the junction.
It seemed that the junction between the two regiments of the Eighth Route Army was about to be lost.
These two Eighth Route Army regiments would be split into two by the Japanese, with the front and rear unable to take care of each other.
Suddenly, those "old Eighth Route Army soldiers" who had changed into military uniforms immediately showed their fangs.
Four heavy machine guns, several mortars, and more than a hundred rifles.
The Japanese soldiers in this squadron were wiped out directly.
Further down was the Japanese artillery position, where they began test firing.
Then, from the pass of Cangyunling, a large number of artillery of the Eighth Route Army began to bombard the exposed positions of the Japanese.
When a battalion of Japanese devils rushed to within 200 meters of the Eighth Route Army's position.
The Eighth Route Army concentrated all its artillery and began to cover this group of Japanese devils.
This is "artillery". When did the Eighth Route Army become able to possess so many artillery?
Don't worry about whether these are mortars or Type 92 infantry guns.
In short, the Eighth Route Army now not only has a large number of artillery, but also has the ability to engage in artillery battles with the Japanese.
In a short while, more than a thousand Japanese devils were wiped out.
Did the Eighth Route Army become stronger? Or did the Sakata Regiment become weaker?
Or maybe we have both become stupid and what we saw just now was an illusion.
This was not the end. Half an hour later, the Eighth Route Army, which had been beaten for two days, actually began to actively attack the Sakata Regiment.
Now think about it, with just Sakata Nobutsu, there are only two remaining Japanese battalions.
The several thousand troops of the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army did not dare to launch an attack in broad daylight.
How dare this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers do this? What is their confidence?
Oh, I see. It turns out that their confidence comes from the countless artillery shells.
First, the Eighth Route Army artillery here bombarded the Japanese positions regardless of cost.
The Sakata Corps, which was under great pressure, actually showed signs of escaping.
Then, another troop of the Eighth Route Army appeared from the side of the hillside.
Not only did they blow up Sakata Nobutsu's regiment headquarters in one fell swoop.
Then they attacked from both sides and bombarded the remaining Japanese troops.
The Eighth Route Army wiped out the Sakata Regiment within half an hour.
Everything I saw was too abnormal. The news that Sakata Nobutsu was completely wiped out could definitely not be concealed.
Chu Yunfei had to report to the Second War Zone and made a guess.
Maybe, probably, possibly, something big happened in Cangyun Ridge.
Some important leading cadres of the Eighth Route Army were targeted by the Japanese devils.
Therefore, the Eighth Route Army had to send elite troops to rescue him.
Otherwise, what happened today cannot be explained at all.
Why did the Eighth Route Army have two artillery units and appear in Cangyunling, a place like this where no one lives?
Then at one o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, the Second War Zone had not yet responded to Chu Yunfei.
Another loud explosion was heard from the direction of the Cangyun Ancient Road.
Chu Yunfei quickly sent people to check, only to find out that the Japanese's 4th Mixed Brigade was destroyed.
They were unexpectedly ambushed by the Eighth Route Army and were completely annihilated by this elite force.
The tactics are exactly the same, which is to wait until all the Japanese enter the ancient road.
First use a large amount of explosives to blow it up (actually high explosives).
Then there was a grenade attack from the side. When all the grenades were thrown, there was a heavy machine gun attack.
After the heavy machine gun fire was finished, they resumed their grenade attacks, and then the Eighth Route Army launched an infantry charge.
In short, we need to learn from the tricks the Japanese used to bully our national army.
I tried different tricks and used them on the Japanese as well. It was really satisfying.
Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong had no choice but to send a telegram to the Second War Zone again to report the news of the destruction of the 4th Mixed Brigade.
As for whether the higher-ups believe it or not, it is not something they can control.
On the morning of the next day, the "Enlarged Meeting to Summarize the Cangyunling Operation" was held at the town office in Cangyun Town.
Division Commander: "First of all, we would like to commend the two regiments led by Commander Cheng and Commander Ye.
It is precisely because of these two regiments that they have the spirit of not fearing sacrifice and being brave enough to sacrifice.
In the early stages of the battle, they suffered nearly two thousand casualties.
This created an opportunity for our division headquarters, logistics department, and nearby fellow villagers to transfer in time.
Therefore, the first credit for the battle of Cangyun Ridge should be given to their two regiments.
Therefore, with the approval of the headquarters, the Cheng and Ye regiments were awarded a collective great merit. "
Looking at the two people who stood up and saluted excitedly, the commander quickly asked them to sit down.
Deputy Commander-in-Chief: “Well, your division commander fully affirmed your achievements.
But you also have some things you do not do well, and I will continue to criticize you for what you do.
You don’t have to think about it. I’m here today just to pour cold water on you.
You fought really well in the beginning, showing the power of our Eighth Route Army and the integrity of Chinese soldiers.
But after the militia brigade of Lianzhuang Team reinforced you, why are you still timid?
Do you know why I changed my generals at the last minute?
It is because you had lost your fighting spirit at that time, and you were not as courageous as a militia commander. "
The two team leaders were immediately ashamed!
In fact, it’s not that they are afraid of fighting. It’s mainly because behind them are the division headquarters and the headquarters, as well as many fellow villagers nearby.
If either of them made any mistake, the losses to the Eighth Route Army would be truly incalculable.
Of course, they were also among them, and they looked down on the militia brigade brought by Shimuqiao.
If Li Yunlong were here, he would have changed his tactics long ago after seeing the militia group had more people and more guns.
