The distance of more than 30 kilometers was just like this, and it passed quickly. When we reached about 5 kilometers of Wuzhuang, it was noon. The sun in winter was not particularly virgin, but it was the best time to have visibility and was not suitable for attack.

In the era of thermal weapons, the number between the two sides was no longer particularly important at some point. In a special place, two machine guns and enough ammunition were enough to resist an infantry regiment. Liu Ye was carrying artillery at this time, but if a machine gun position appeared, the losses at that time would be very large.

The reconnaissance team has been in place one by one. In the plan, it is divided into a fan-shaped area, just like 12 arrows pointing directly to the more than 40 square kilometers controlled by the Okada Brigade. Because it is a search, these Japanese soldiers are not distributed in a concentrated manner. According to the previous location, coupled with a certain search and speculation, we can find the location of each Japanese army and confirm whether the other party's organization is complete.

Radio means that you can call at any time. Okada brigade has about 1,100 people divided into a brigade headquarters, three squadrons, a machine gun squadron with more than 170 people and an artillery squadron with more than 50 people. However, because it is mountain combat, the machine gun squadron and artillery squadron were mixed into an infantry squadron. In total, it is four squadrons and a brigade headquarters.

With confidence, we can calm down. In the quiet mountains and forests, there is nothing else except the sound of birds and beasts. Soon, the radio sound broke the silence. From the first sound, it started to be continuous. Soon, 12 messages arrived.

The mission of the 12 groups of scouts is, in addition to monitoring the status, location, and military strength of the opponent, the most important thing is to monitor whether the opponent's troops are intact. When the Sakamoto brigade was annihilated in Nantou County, a list was obtained in the military command. It happened to be the list of the entire Inoue corps, which recorded in detail all the personnel of the Inoue corps. There are a total of 3,875 people, of which the number of Okada brigade is 1,089, and there are even detailed configurations and composition structures below.

During this battle, the staff members studied it many times. Integrity is the most critical. It is necessary to ensure that all the people from the Okada brigade are here before they can launch an attack. Otherwise, a team of more than 50 people may be able to solve the problem.

According to the 12 directions, a brigade of the other side was divided into 5 parts, including the personnel of the brigade headquarters, 110 people from the brigade team, and 55 people from the artillery team. There were a total of about 200 people. They were in the center and were in Wuzhuang. There was no movement, and there were four squadrons left. They were completely divided and walked around the mountain with a distance of more than a square kilometers. The farthest was from the nearest time, at least about 20 kilometers.

The dispersed team, the army that cannot clench its fists, and the distance between them is far, which gives them a great opportunity.

Liu Ye opened the map, marked the location of the Japanese army on the map according to the introduction of the scouts, and then conducted a series of research with the staff. First, he concluded that the farthest squadron, which was a small number of people, was an infantry squadron formed on the basis of the machine gun squadron. They had already climbed a mountain with an altitude of more than 800 meters. The terrain was rugged, the mountains were high and dense, and in some cases, it was not suitable for combat.

There is no way to go, you can only adapt to the situation. Moreover, according to the mountain road, even if the fight is fought here, it will take at least one day to get down. It is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain, especially in the middle of the mountain with high mountains and dense forests. Even the scouts did not go deep and stare at them from afar.

In addition to the farthest squadron, there are two squadrons that have been scattered. Moreover, these two squadrons are not far apart, but they are easy to deal with. As long as they go around in the middle and defeat each one, they can successfully take him down. As for the last squadron, for some reason, they have crossed Zhushui River. The amount of water in Zhushui River in winter is not small, but their location is not far from Wuzhuang, but it is the deepest part of Zhushui River. Unless they have practiced swimming specifically, it is not easy to come here.

Using this radio, all the information of Okada Brigade was quickly brought over. Everything around had formed a simple map. Liu Ye was drawing the information on the scouts to obtain. The more he added it, the more excited he became. He was divided into 5 brigades. To a certain extent, it was equivalent to reducing their strength by at least 2 points. In addition, they did not know how to attack, as long as they could destroy the opponent's brigade headquarters as soon as possible, losing concentrated command and morale, and there was a great chance of victory next time.

Time is running out, and this is the best opportunity. They must seize it. There are very few personnel in a brigade, with a total of about 200 people, including the 110-man horse squadron and 55-man artillery squadron. They are not good at infantry.

It is just a brigade headquarters, so it is impossible to use too much here. Only one platoon was used, with about 60 people, plus a small number of Wufeng Army, with a total of about 150 people, which is equivalent to a quarter of the entire expedition team. The remaining personnel were divided into two directions and rushed towards the two scattered squadrons. As long as the brigade headquarters and the two scattered squadrons were solved, everything would be settled.

Destroy the soldiers of the brigade, and they will work with the new recruits to resist the counterattack of the last squadron. As long as they persist for 2 hours, they will be surrounded by other squadrons, and everything will be settled.

The plan is perfect, but it depends on execution. So in order to avoid problems as much as possible, Liu Ye sent soldiers from the Northwest Army in many key links. Then, he personally led the main army of 150 people to Wuzhuang. The rest, led by Lin Long and Wei Ming, rushed to two scattered squadrons.

The battle is always full of unknowns, even if they have a complete plan, the same is true. Their location is closest to Wuzhuang, but before they arrived in Wuzhuang, gunfire suddenly rang several miles away.

Liu Ye sighed and ordered his subordinates to stop for a while. This was already the closest wood to Wuzhuang. It was under the obstruction of the woods that they could quickly infiltrate. It was only more than 300 meters away from Wuzhuang. In the plan, he would forcibly break through more than 300 meters. If 150 young and strong people were running with all their might, it might take only a few dozen seconds to cross this area. However, the sudden gunfire completely eliminated this possibility. If he advances towards the other party's village in an open area of ​​300 meters, he will inevitably be attacked by the other party's firepower, which is no less than suicide in this situation.

Liu Ye was very depressed. What he wanted to know more was who was and why he suddenly shot.

The gunshots were abrupt, and the reason was very simple. A small group of five Japanese troops seemed to suddenly emerge from the dense forest upstream of Zhuoshui River and just ran into Wei Ming's army on the mission. During the sudden encounter, the scouts of Wei Ming's army immediately started and solved them with rifles. But the entire plan was exposed.

The 12th group of scouts carefully observed each part, but Wuzhuang was an exception. After all, this was a fixed farm. It was not a scattered scattered outside. Many numbers could only be estimated. In addition, it was almost an hour and there was no back and forth. It was time for lunch. Who would have thought that five Japanese soldiers would crash into it like this.

They belong to the brigade headquarters and horse squadron. None of the five people were at peace. They ran out at noon and went down to the river to catch fish and grill fish, because the place they chose was more secret. After all, they had to avoid the brigade headquarters, so the scouts were not as good as they were in a hurry, which made them a change of variables.

The gunshots were very eye-catching around the calm village. Around the two scattered squadrons, located in the brigade headquarters in Wuzhuang, were like a calm water surface, and a huge rock was thrown into it. The first thing that was to move was Wuzhuang. A team of about 70 people quickly set off from Wuzhuang. According to the previous reconnaissance, this should be composed of the personnel directly under the brigade and 55 artillery team members. They quickly went in the direction where the gunshots rang out. In the continuous radio, the investigators also spoke out the movements in other places.

Liu Ye's face was gloomy and the telescope carefully observed everything in Wuzhuang.

"Company Commander, can't wait any longer!" The platoon leader said with some concern. Everyone knows that the current situation has been exposed. It should be no problem to deal with these 70 soldiers, but it will be a bit difficult to deal with the original target squadron. At this time, let the brigade headquarters overcome the current difficulties. If a squadron from Zhuoshuixi comes over, it will be even more difficult to deal with the Japanese.

Liu Ye knew very well that after a little contemplation, he immediately ordered an attack, with the Northwest Army as the leading position, and the scattered soldiers line bypassing the front of Wuzhuang and attacking the Okada brigade. The scattered soldiers line. When facing not many automatic firearms, the power of the automatic firearm can be minimized, so as to avoid casualties as much as possible.

However, it seemed that it was very lucky. Wuzhuang had no reaction. It seemed that everyone's eyes were attracted by the gunshots. No wonder, this area was the core area of ​​Okada Brigade. They had been here for more than half a month and spent half a month searching. There was no hair around. They had been staying in the world for a long time and had no desire to stay in such a remote place with nothing. Even if the gunshot just now, they intuitively thought that it was a few boys who were blind and hunting nearby. And so many people were sent out, but the staff in charge of guards did not find traces of the Wufeng Army. The rest, hiding in the brigade headquarters, did what they should do and what else to do.

Inexplicably, the battle continued very smoothly. The battle of the brigade headquarters finally started successfully, with only 110 ordinary horse-drawing squadrons left. They could not stop the Wufeng Army, which was like a wolf and a tiger. They even killed the more than 70 living forces that were ushered in the gunshot. The entire battle ended less than 10 minutes later. Liu Ye's army successfully occupied Wuzhuang and achieved a good start to attack the Okada Brigade, capturing the captain Okada Murata, and even the brigade flag was seized. (To be continued.)
