77 [Stone Mine]

"Target, the Eighth Route Army in Liujiawan!"

Ichita Terada received intelligence support from the military captain Hirata Ichiro this morning. After determining the target, he was very arrogant and did not even have a complete combat plan, so he ordered the troops to set off quickly.

More than 1,500 Japanese and puppet troops formed a long marching snake. The front was a company of puppet troops, and the Japanese liked to use them to rush to mines to reduce their casualties.

Of course, the Japanese troops were large troops in the middle of the team, and the best protected at the end of the team was four French guns pulled by 24 horses.

These four cannons are a treasure. Japan lacks supplies, and even the weapons designed are more compact.

Take the Type 92 infantry cannon for example. It weighs very lightly, only more than 200 kilograms, and it is an excellent thing to put it in the mountains to fight. However, this kind of cannon also has its disadvantages, that is, its range is somewhat lacking, and its maximum range is only about 2,800 meters.

These four French Miss rapid-fire guns are not only more powerful, but also have a maximum range of 8,500 meters, much stronger than the Type 92 infantry gun.

But it also has a disadvantage, that is, its weight is not light, each door weighs more than 1.1 tons, and it cannot be disassembled and transported. It can only be pulled forward with six pack horses. On the Chinese battlefield where the road is relatively poor, its applicability is far less than that of the Type 92 infantry cannon.

Ichima Terada thought: These four cannons were useful. They took them out for a walk and gave the eighth Route Army a long experience.

However, the cannon was still too heavy. After walking less than one-third of the road, several miles were pushed by the puppet army shouting horns.

The angry Ichita Terada scolded angrily: "The eighth Route Army that dug the broken road, die, die."

Seeing this, Edogawaoka stood up and suggested: "Master, the soldiers are very fast, so I should take a small army to escort these four artillery slowly. You will lead a large army to raid and sweep the Eighth Route Army."

Ichita Terada just thought for a moment and agreed. In addition to leaving Edogawaoka's troops, he also assigned him a battalion of puppet troops as a coolie who transported four cannons.

In his mind, attacking a group of Tujiao Route Army groups, four mortars in his hand was enough, and this was just an extra help.

And behind, Yuan Pengfei, who received this news, was almost laughing. He was still having a headache about how to get these four cannons. Unexpectedly, the Japanese were so satisfied and gave him the opportunity.

If you don’t seize such an opportunity, you deserve to be struck by lightning.

"Lao Zhang, it's a pity not to eat the fat meat you come to your door! Look at how we fight?" Yuan Pengfei asked inquiry.

Zhang Dabiao looked at the map and said for a while: "Old Yuan, do you think the Japanese are fishing?"

Yuan Pengfei suddenly stood in awe of his hair and was startled by the idea.

"Wang Erlu, how long have the two teams of Japanese devils set apart?"

"Well, it's about ten miles!"

This does not rule out that the Japanese had the idea of ​​fishing. More than 500 Japanese and puppet troops could not be defeated in just one stroke. With this time, it would be enough for Takata Takata to take the large army to counter-surround.

Yuan Pengfei also won too many battles and was a little arrogant, thinking that the Japanese were just like this. Now it seems that if you treat others as fools, don’t you know that you are also fools in other people’s eyes?

The Japanese army knew that the Eighth Route Army liked ambushing and preferred good weapons and equipment, so these four cannons were a big piece of fat.

And he was afraid that the Eighth Route Army would not dare to take the initiative. So Ichita Terada was very considerate to disperse the troops to lure them to take the initiative.

With this idea, Yuan Pengfei didn't dare to make a fuss, "Old Zhang, then how do we fight?"

Zhang Dabiao: "The Japanese did this, we can't do it as he wanted. We ordered the 2nd Battalion and the 3rd Company to disperse and fight the sparrow battle. Two or three people, four or five people in a group, and leave after the battle. Let him taste the taste of the sparrow battle first."

This is easy to say, avoid the real and go to the virtual, use scattered soldiers to consume the enemy's living power, disrupt their steps, and then find favorable opportunities to formulate the next combat plan.

But since that's the case, how can we lose landmines!

Yuan Pengfei: "Old Zhang, since this is the case, it's better to add mines. I still have hundreds of stone mines mixed with iron mines, which is enough to give the Japanese a pot of cruelty."

This time it was Zhang Dabiao's turn to be shocked. Hundreds of stone mines were going to the sky!

Stone mines, as the name suggests, are mines made of stone. There is one major difference between them and iron mines, that is, they are more concealed.

For iron mines, Japanese engineers can detect metal with minesweepers, draw them into circles with white ash, and bypass them.

But if you encounter stone mines, this method will not work. The Japanese were blind and could only take a detour. If you still have to pass, there would be no other way except to take livestock or human lives.

"Old Yuan, you kid are rich, how can you get so many stone mines? Zhang Dabiao asked in surprise.

"Hey, this is nothing. There are seven or eight old stonemasons in my defense area. This iron mine is similar to that of the stone garlic mortar. The old stonemason can get one for you in a meal.

We mobilized the masses to work for a month and made more than 500 stone mines. If it weren't for the fact that many Japanese were bombed at this stage, it would be more than that one to count now." Yuan Pengfei said very proudly.

Of course, this kind of thing was not his first intention. In 1941, a militia in the Yimeng base area suddenly had a whim to create such a stone mine, which caused the Japanese to suffer a great loss.

It’s just that the Eighth Route Army is subject to conditions, and many people just listen to it and don’t think about carrying it forward.

It was because Yuan Pengfei was relatively idle in the base area during this period that he found a way to get gunpowder and created a killing weapon like stone mines.

After hearing this, Zhang Dabiao couldn't help but sigh that Yuan Pengfei could make trouble, "Old Yuan, let me go back and give me some, I'll exchange it with you with a machine gun!"

"Okay, there are still some ones that will be made next month. I'll give you another hundred. But if there are more, you have to exchange them with guns and ammunition.

After all, my militia are holding big blades and making guns! You, Lao Zhang, have to pay some hard work!" Yuan Pengfei said jokingly.

"Don't worry, I can't lose you."

Zhang Dabiao waved his hand and said indifferently.

Now that he has become a local rich man, his troops are so strong that he is almost rich, and some small money is not worth mentioning.

Moreover, the stone mine is effective, so I can exchange it for some guns and ammunition. When the mine is blown up, I will recover it from the Japanese again!

The warriors who received the order at the foot of the mountain were in a state of joy.

The third company, which often fought guerrillas in this area, became the main force of the sparrow war. Hundreds of people were scattered all over the mountains and fields, and from time to time, two cold guns were fired to interfere with the marching Japanese.

Ichita Terada didn't take it seriously at first, and sent a small group of Japanese troops to pursue him, trying to kill the enemy who fired the cold gun.

However, there were too many enemies who fired cold guns along the way. After pushing forward for ten miles, he sent ten men and more than 300 people to pursue him. If he dispersed like this, his large army would not be left without a single person in the future.

Send cavalry to recall the small group of troops that were seriously damaged. Ichita Terada thought hard and had a new idea.
