Chapter 019: Walking on the Mountain Road at Night
The three trucks full of ammunition and military supplies attacked in the valley blocked the road and it was difficult to clear it for a while. In the short battle, the transport truck in front had already driven away in order not to be attacked, and the vehicles behind were difficult to pass. Dong Limao decided to walk.
Except for the weapons and equipment you carry with you, all other irrelevant personal items will be discarded.
But Li Yuanyuan's pocket was not thrown away, but was slapped on Hu San's shoulder. Dong Limao knew that women always had something to do without.
Walking too far along the road, they learned from a local driver that there was a mountain road that could directly reach the front mountain village, where there was a military supplies station. Passing vehicles would refuel and refuel at the military supplies station.
Leading by Zhu Yongsheng, Wang Jiagui broke the rear, and a group of thirteen people, three people and one torch in each room, walked up the mountain road.
"Sister, what is the number of today?" Dong Limao asked Li Yuanyuan who was walking in front of him.
"April 3." Li Yuanyuan replied. She was Zhang Dali in front of her, carrying the Japanese light machine gun on her left shoulder and holding the torch with her right hand...
"There are twenty-five days left before April 28." Dong Limao said to himself in a low voice. He clearly remembered that the Japanese army attacked Lashio on April 28, 1942. The battle situation of the Expeditionary Force began to change from that day.
"What's wrong? Is April 28th a special day for you?" Li Yuanyuan turned around and asked.
"Uh... nothing, just say it." Dong Limao didn't want to explain too much. He followed Hu San, holding a torch in his hand.
Dong Limao knew very well that this was a history that was difficult to change. Since he was unable to change it, he had to wait for history to change himself. He had gradually accepted the reality that he became his great-grandfather. Even if he didn't want to do this, he had no choice but to follow his great-grandfather's footsteps and move forward step by step. Perhaps, the great-grandfather walked on this mountain road sixty-two years ago, now and now, like himself, with time not bad. If this is true, will the great-grandfather and the others encounter any incredible things during this short marching?
Thinking of this, Dong Limao waved his hand and shouted: "Stay on the spot!"
"Rest?" Li Yuanyuan stopped and turned around and looked at Dong Limao in confusion.
The others also turned their attention to him, and Zhu Yongsheng turned back from the front: "Company Commander, we have just climbed the mountain road and there is no rest time..."
"Old Zhu, I think something is wrong." Dong Limao looked around the mountain. It was dark at this time, and it was the darkest time before dawn.
"You are worried..." Zhu Yongsheng guessed what he wanted to say.
"I'm not worried about meeting other Japanese sneak attack troops." Dong Limao shook his head and said.
"Yes, there is no longer a sneak attack from the Japanese army. In more than an hour, it will be dawn. The Japanese will not launch another sneak attack after the sneak attack failed." Zhu Yongsheng said.
"Isn't this a whimsical idea to block this important transportation line with more than twenty people? If I were a Japanese general, I would never be so stupid. I would definitely take a more effective and devastating sabotage activity to completely destroy this transportation mountain road called the lifeline, or make it difficult to recover in a short period of time..." Dong Limao's thoughts gradually became clear. He stared at Li Yuanyuan: "Sister, with the information obtained by your intelligence department, have the Japanese army sent troops to attack this transportation road?"
"The aircraft bombing has been going on since the Expeditionary Force entered Myanmar, but no information about the dispatch of troops has been intercepted." Li Yuanyuan answered affirmatively.
"Don't you think that the official village was attacked last night and was related to the ambush in the valley just now?" Dong Limao linked the two battles he encountered overnight.
"It should be that there is no connection. The official village was attacked by a man in black, that is, a Japanese spy. But the ambush we encountered just now was done by the regular army." Li Yuanyuan disagreed with Dong Limao's idea.
"How do you know that the Japanese army's regular army was wiped out just now?" Dong Limao asked back.
Li Yuanyuan glanced at the light machine gun in Zhang Dali's hand: "This weapon is only used by the regular Japanese army."
"Then are the weapons we hold American equipment in our hands, so we must be American soldiers?" Dong Limao's words seemed to convince Li Yuanyuan, and she no longer spoke.
"Company Commander, tell me, what should we do?" Zhu Yongsheng was also impressed by Dong Limao's analysis.
"Let your brothers put out all the torches." Dong Limao's first order was to put out the torches.
After the torches were all destroyed, Dong Limao continued: "Send a small group of troops to the rear to harass the expeditionary army's transportation convoy. It was a mantis arm to block the chariot, and it did not play a big role. If I were the Japanese commander and would not make such inaction decisions, then what would I do? It is very simple. Use the spy agencies and personnel that infiltrated the rear to first destroy the other party's intelligence agencies. This has been confirmed since the sneak attack in the official village last night, and then another act of pretending to ambush the transport vehicle, the purpose is to investigate whether there are troops equipped with strong firepower on this road. Unfortunately, he
We met us in this operation, which was something that the other party never expected... The small ambush convoy's enemy will be eliminated, which will give the other party an illusion, that is, we have a very powerful escort team... What will the Japanese army do next? Since the Japanese army knows that we have such a strong escort team, it means that this transportation line is very important to our army and must carry out a complete destruction strike... So, what is the main target of the attack? Why did the Japanese army continue to send planes to bomb but paralyze this transportation line? That is, they did not find the key points of the bombing."
Dong Limao's analysis made everyone stupid.
"Based on your analysis, Japanese spies are still looking for the main target of the bombing?" Li Yuanyuan asked.
"It is very likely that they would hide on the mountain and send the location of this mountain road to the Japanese command center, or they would send a report to the command center when they saw a large number of transport vehicles passing by, so the convoy was bombed when they appeared. Unfortunately, the mountains are high and the ditches are deep, and Japanese aircraft cannot fly and bomb at ultra-low altitudes. The accuracy rate is very low, and they failed to destroy the transportation line... After many bombings, the enemy felt that the effect was not great, so they thought of another method, which is what I just analyzed... So, where is the key part of this transportation line?" Dong Limao kept a secret, looked at Li Yuanyuan, and then at Zhu Yongsheng.
Li Yuanyuan deserves to be an intelligence officer, and she immediately understood: "Are you talking about the village with a military supplies station in front?"
"By the way, the purpose of the Japanese army's operation is to find the accurate location of the military command station." Dong Limao nodded and asked Li Yuanyuan: "Sister, do you even know that there is a military command station in the village ahead?"
"Well, I've never heard of it, and I don't even know that this transportation line has a military supplies station." Li Yuanyuan replied.
Zhu Yongsheng now fully understood, and he asked, "Company Commander, do you have to report this situation to the military headquarters?"
"It's too late, we don't have a hand... a phone or a transmitter." Dong Limao immediately changed his words, and he almost said the word "mobile".
"What should I do?" Li Yuanyuan asked anxiously.
