    Chapter 61 Fierce Battle at Yingzui Ridge (1)

    Tang Qiuli just wanted to gather the commanders at all levels together to study the matter about the Japanese Songtian Regiment. When he saw them all coming, he was busy saying goodbye to his father, second uncle, third uncle, and Uncle Zhang, and repeatedly told him,  We must keep it confidential and not let any unreliable outsiders know that the folks in Tangjia Wopu helped the Blood Hands transport supplies to prevent the Japanese from crazy revenge.

    He had to be more careful. Tangjia Wopu was his root and where his heart was. If something happened, even if he won countless battles and eliminated countless Japanese, he would not be able to make up for such losses. What would happen to him would be  The eternal pain in his heart!

    The commanders of the Blood Hand Regiment gathered together and held the first plenary meeting in an empty room after occupying Sancha River.

    First, Qiu Sheng reported the situation where he was, but there was not much else. The biggest gain was that after the prison was opened, more than two thousand prisoners were released. In addition to some ordinary people who had already taken the travel expenses given by the army and went home, there were also  There were more than 1,600 people who insisted on following the troops. Most of them were former soldiers of the Northeast Army and many students and outsiders. Among them were more than 40 bearded men who were said to have been arrested for fighting Japanese soldiers.

    What interested Tang Qiuli the most was that there were more than twenty political prisoners. Qiu Sheng didn't know what the prisoners were, but these political prisoners were under the strictest supervision and were tortured.  Also the most serious.

    Qiu Sheng didn't know, but Tang Qiuli knew in his heart that the Communist Party members of this era were all good, with firm revolutionary beliefs and lofty ideals. They were not high-ranking officials and well-paid, majestic, and had their heads tucked into their waistbands.  Go up to the revolution, everyone is a kind of fire, a little dry firewood can burn, and you have found a treasure.

    Liu Tiehan and Feng Jiwu also came back with a rich harvest, including things from Japanese stores, homes, and shops, not to mention oil, salt, soy and vinegar, tobacco, wine, sugar and tea, daily necessities, etc.  etc., fully implemented the commander's intention, and completely carried out the "Three Lights", directly bringing the Japanese businessmen who made a fortune by plundering, bullying and dominating the market after arriving in China to a state of absolute poverty.  The pants he was wearing and the dentures in his mouth, of course, the dentures were gold, so there was nothing left.

    After the two people finished reporting, they felt a little worried. How could they transport so many things back to the mountains?

    Zhang Quan here can't hold it in for a long time. As a man in his forties, the wrinkles on his face are so happy that he is really good at whatever job he does. He mainly recruits people from all walks of life, such as tailors and tofu merchants.  They wanted everything from the hospital, and even mobilized the whole hospital, including the director, doctors and nurses, to come over. As for medicines, medical equipment, etc., regardless of Chinese medicine or Western medicine, they all were taken away or bought.  , and said proudly that this time the logistics stall was finally set up!

    Wang Xu was relatively calm, but he kept wiping his glasses happily. His biggest gain was that there was a small arsenal of the Japs here. After the troops occupied it, except for the factory director and a few Japs technicians who resisted and were killed, the rest  The people who got off were all Chinese. After further questioning, they turned out to be workers from Fengtian Arsenal. They were forced to come here. After Wang Xu mobilized them, they all followed the team without saying a word. Now they are busy dismantling machines and installing equipment.  , saying that not even a screw was left for the little devil.

    In addition to these, Wang Xu is also a careful person. He takes away all the machines, equipment, and raw materials that are needed by the base. He actually found a set of small water conservancy and power generation equipment. He didn't know that the devils got it here.  What's the use?  Anyway, the base is useful.

    Like Liu Tiehan, he was a little worried about how to transport so many machines and equipment back to the mountains, especially those sets of large machine tools, which could not be loaded on a sledge. No, he asked everyone for advice!

    Everyone immediately started a discussion around the key issue of transportation.

    Not to mention, a way was quickly figured out. All the livestock and sledges in the town, plus the captured ones, were all used to transport supplies. There happened to be more than 1,600 newly released people who immediately joined the transportation team.  Qiu Sheng, Wang Xu, Zhang Quan, and Xiao Ling formed the transportation command department, which was fully responsible for related transportation issues. The commander would not interfere. As for the sets of large machine tools, it was easy to handle. The eight large sledges were fixed under the machine tools.  It became a super-large sledge, pulled by four strong horses, and could be decorated with other things.

    Tang Qiuli secretly estimated that even if this was the case, all the supplies would have to be transported around 12 o'clock tonight at the earliest. Time is of the essence now. I don't know when the Japanese Matsuda Alliance will be able to transport them away.  Arrive.

    After thinking about this, Tang Qiuli calculated this harvest again. With this harvest, it can support the consumption of a team of about 5,000 people within two years. The current army, even the new ones, can't even count.  With less than 3,000 people, this battle was so enjoyable that heI laughed secretly in my heart. After all my plundering, Sanchahe's economic foundation has been set back by at least ten years. Let the little devils worry!

    Just when the meeting was coming to an end and everyone was about to split up, a scout ran in sweating profusely and whispered something in Qiuquan's ear.

    After a while, Qiuquan told everyone that the scouts who stayed in Songjiang City to monitor the Japanese Songtian Regiment had received accurate news. More than 3,000 Japanese soldiers in the Songtian Regiment had come out in full force this morning and rushed to the Sancha River, all mules and horses.  The chemical march, along with two tanks and four armored vehicles, has been out of the city for more than an hour now.

    After listening to Qiuquan's report on the enemy's situation, Tang Qiuli breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if he knew the enemy's actions, otherwise, he would always be worried.

    Next, the focus of the meeting shifted to how to challenge the Japanese Matsuda United Team.

    This is the first time that the Anti-Japanese Blood Hand Regiment has faced off against a large Japanese army since its establishment, and it is a head-on battle. If you are careless and fail to take into account one aspect, the army will suffer heavy losses and even be in danger of being annihilated.  .

    Tang Qiuli immediately made specific arrangements.

    Arsenal, hospitals and logistics personnel immediately followed the transport team back to the base and deployed 200 team members to be responsible for escorting and guarding.

    Qiuquan led all the temporarily assigned team members and reconnaissance teams, a total of 150 people, and set off immediately, heading out on the only road from Songjiang City to Sancha River, harassing the Japanese along the way, slowing down the Japanese's marching speed, and bringing in more enemies.  Weapons with long ranges should be equipped with sharpshooters. Do not fight head-on. If necessary, cover the safe retreat of the main force.

    The Transportation Command must transport all supplies into the mountains before 11 o'clock tonight. They can use segmented transportation to speed up the transportation pace. Materials that cannot be transported can be blown up. The details will be determined by the Transportation Command.  The members decided that the command members would evacuate Sanchahe along with the last transport team.

    Tang Qiuli, Liu Tiehan, Feng Jiwu, and Shan Hu, with three hundred strong soldiers, were responsible for blocking the Japanese. The troops were all equipped with automatic weapons to maintain the density of firepower. In addition, twenty sharpshooters followed the troops, mainly  Sniper commander.

    At this time, Xiaoling was hesitant, hesitating to speak, and kept looking at him with her beautiful big eyes. Tang Qiuli understood what this girl was thinking. She wanted to stay with him, no matter what!  Let¡¯s not talk about the injury on her arm. This is the sniper battle. You can imagine how cruel it was. She was facing a Japanese field regiment. Are you kidding?

    He stopped Xiaoling's thoughts with a stern look, and told her that transportation is equally important. Taking care of the work you are responsible for is the greatest support for me. After hearing this, Xiaoling had to give up the idea. This girl also understood in her heart.  At this time, try not to cause trouble to Qiu Li. The affectionate kiss before parting and the worry and concern in his eyes made Tang Qiuli's heart tremble. Everyone also understood Xiaoling's concerns and found excuses to leave.  Leave space for the lovers.

    After making these arrangements, it was already nine o'clock in the morning. Tang Qiuli had no time to say goodbye to his father and the others, so he set off with his troops.

    Yingzui Ridge is located fifteen miles due south of the Sancha River. It is the only way in and out of the Sancha River. Of course, there is another road, but it is two days longer than taking the Yingzui Ridge. Therefore, the Songtian United Team  In order to reach Sanchahe as soon as possible, we must take this road.

    The terrain of Yingzui Ridge is dangerous. It is ten miles up the ridge and ten miles down the ridge. A large driveway winds through the ridge. The cliffs on both sides are towering. The pine forest is dense and the bushes are thick. From a distance, it looks like the open mouth of an eagle. Therefore, the local  People named it Yingzui Ridge. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack. It was a good place for ambush.

    After Tang Qiuli led his troops to this place, he immediately deployed his troops. Fifty team members were placed on each side of the cliff. He also strictly ordered that the main frontal position would never be exposed before firing. He was allowed to prepare a large number of ammunition and grenades, and every  There are three heavy machine guns on the side. As for the light machine gun, there is almost one for everyone. Anyway, there are plenty of them in the Japanese depot, so if you don¡¯t use them, you can¡¯t use them.

    The remaining two hundred team members were all arranged at the highest point on the ridge, like a gate, firmly cutting off the driveway. Tang Qiuli arranged all the mortars on the front position, behind the main position.  , set up artillery positions, with enough ammunition for the Japanese to drink a pot.

    But when building a frontal blocking position, the soldiers encountered a problem. It was freezing and snowy, and the ground was frozen harder than stone. When they dug out the snow and lowered it with a pickaxe, the soldiers' hands were so shaken that they became numb, leaving only a white spot!  But if the soldiers are put in a difficult position, unable to build a position, and facing the fierce firepower of the Japanese, they will suffer a loss!  What to do?

    Tang Qiuli also felt embarrassed. Suddenly, he had an idea and thought of a brilliant idea.

    Ask the team members to pick up a large amount of wood, burn it on the position, boil the frozen soil, melt it one layer, and dig another layer down. The excavated soil is piled in front of the trench to make a breast wall and set up several large pots., melt the snow, wait for the snow water to cool down, and then pour it on the piled snow and soil. In the days of Kanto, it freezes as you pour it, and the storage is stronger than reinforced concrete.

    When the soldiers got busy, they all knew that this was a life-saving occupation. After a while, they were just here to withstand the Japanese shells. How dare they not try their best? Not to mention, this trick worked really well and the progress was greatly accelerated. The soldiers were all  He secretly praised the commander for being smart and wise!

    Taking advantage of the excitement, I dug a few more shelters, covered them with thick pine canopies, tree branches, poured snow, and then poured water on them, layer by layer, so that they could withstand even airplane bombs.

    By about four o'clock in the afternoon, a complete blocking position was completed. The traffic trenches were connected to the main position. Many anti-gun holes were dug inside the trenches. A section of road in front of the position was splashed with water by the soldiers and became slippery.  There is an ice rink with a certain slope on the parapet, mainly to destroy the Japanese armored vehicles. Even the positions on the cliffs have built anti-cannon holes.

    For the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, Tang Qiuli specially asked the soldiers to install many Molotov cocktails. He just got an empty wine bottle, filled it with gasoline, and left a twister outside. This thing was extremely effective against tanks and armored vehicles. Tang Qiuli  I came up with this idea after being inspired by the classic battles on the Soviet-German battlefield during World War II.

    Everything was ready. It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Zhang Quan arranged for a sumptuous dinner to be delivered, with enough fish and meat. He also prepared three days' worth of dry food for each soldier.

    Tang Qiuli was secretly surprised by this. Why didn't he expect that Zhang Quan had considered the problem comprehensively? The team he led might have to engage in guerrilla warfare with the Japanese in the mountains and forests in the next few days.  These leaders in my own army are not simple!

    After the soldiers had eaten and drank enough, they wrapped themselves in their fur coats and hid in the shell-proof hole to take a nap. After a while, it was unclear how fierce the battle would be. They took the time to be mesmerized for a while to regain their energy and beat the Japanese devils hard.

    At this time, several commanders had a dispute. Liu Tiehan and Feng Jiwu were both veteran soldiers who had experienced battles for a long time. They understood how this kind of positional warfare was fought and knew that it was the most dangerous place. They both had to lead the team to do it.  The commander of the frontal attack, in one sentence, asked the commander to go up the cliffs on both sides. The reason was that the commander was the highest commander and could not tolerate any mistakes. Tang Qiuli understood their good intentions, but they could stay in the most dangerous place.  To your comrades?

    The result of the dispute was that Liu Tiehan and Feng Jiwu went to command the battle on the cliffs on both sides respectively. He and Shan Hu stayed in the frontal blocking position to take charge of the command. According to Shan Hu's opinion, he was the only one left, and the commander did not need to be left.  On the front, of course Tang Qiuli couldn't agree. How could he be willing to let his good brother bear the danger alone? In the end, he followed Tang Qiuli's deployment and each reached the command position.

    The sun has set, and twilight has begun to cover the earth. Tang Qiuli stood at the commanding heights, holding a telescope in his hand, and carefully observed the large driveway on the opposite side. After watching for a while, there was no movement, and he turned his attention to the Sancha River behind him.

    There are still lights in the town, and a long dragon made of lights winds its way into the mountains. Qiu Sheng and the others are nervously rushing to transport supplies.

    The night was getting darker, the wind was blowing, the pine waves were bursting, and the biting cold air was hitting the ground. Suddenly, Tang Qiuli's keen spiritual sense caught a trace of movement, which was faintly coming from the opposite side.

    He used his binoculars to stare closely at the direction of the abnormal movement. Shan Hu hurriedly lay down on the ground, pressed his ears tightly to the ground, and listened carefully. After a moment, he quickly got up and said to Tang Qiuli: "Command  Chief, here we come!¡±

    When Shan Hu just finished saying this, the roar of an engine came faintly.

    After a while, the sound of the engine became clearer. In Tang Qiuli's telescope lens, a little light appeared, followed by one and two.  , the lights gradually connected together, like a poisonous snake, meandering towards this side, and then, the roar of the engine was clearly transmitted to the ears of all the team members.

    Songtian Regiment, you are finally here, everyone is ready for battle, Tang Qiuli issued the order.

    The soldiers stared at the poisonous snake with its fangs and claws, and tightly grasped the guns in their hands.
