Chapter 1798 New Ideas for Stopping the Enemy
"Gee! Gee!" With the shouts of the soldiers driving the carriages, the four carriages ran wildly along the road.
There were not many people on each carriage, only six or seven Northeast Army soldiers, so the horses could run very fast.
Because the carriages ran very fast, the carriages were shaking violently.
Fortunately, the veterans had foreseen this, and they tied all the guns and ammunition they used to the carriages.
It's just that the guns and ammunition can be tied to the carriages, but they can't tie themselves to the carriages, so they were thrown into the air while the carriages were running.
"Haven't we all found a good position? Why are we going forward again?" A soldier in the last carriage asked loudly while the carriages were shaking.
"Who knows? Just do whatever you tell us to do." The companion in the carriage answered.
When the person asking the question was about to say something else, the carriage happened to pass a bump, so the words he was about to say turned into "Oh my god", and then he was thrown into the air.
To say that he was thrown away is just an exaggeration.
That is to say, the buttocks of the people sitting on the carriage left the board and the people were completely out of the carriage.
But being thrown away does not mean flying. Just when he fell, the person who was speaking instinctively stretched out his hands to support the carriage below.
But even with the support of his arms, when his body hit the carriage, he was still hit hard. He felt that his intestines were about to leak out!
The soldier who asked the question was Hu Jiucheng, and he had a nickname called "Hu Lielie".
Hu Lielie was also a veteran of the Northeast Army, but because he was a habitual complainer, no matter who became the superior, he was not welcomed.
And he was still a person who was tired but not appreciated.
You say he didn't work? He worked! Was he not brave in the war? He was brave!
But the problem was that he loved to complain, and that was tired but not appreciated, wasn't it?
Hu Lielie was a soldier in the original guard company.
When Qiu Bo first came to their company as the company commander, he was not convinced.
But through a series of battles, Qiu Bo proved that he was still competent, and Hu Lielie was convinced, although he had a lot of complaints.
But just as he was convinced by Qiu Bo, Qiu Bo was transferred to the guard company as the company commander.
Now the company commander has changed to Chu Tian, so his complaints naturally came again.
What he wanted to say was that the ambush position was ready, why did they suddenly change the plan now? This scholar is not good at being a leader!
It’s just that the carriage was running too fast, and finally "blocked" his mouth.
After the carriage ran for more than 20 minutes, Chu Tian, who was sitting in the first carriage and observing the terrain on both sides of the road, shouted: "Stop! This is it!"
So the sound of "whoosh" and "whoosh" rang on the road, and the horses pulling the carriages neighed and stopped.
"Except for the coachman, follow me to that hilltop, you coachmen drive the carriages there to meet us." Chu Tian pointed at the order he issued with his finger.
"Everyone except the driver" The hilltop was right next to the highway, more than a hundred meters away from the highway.
Behind the hilltop, there was another dense forest a hundred meters away, but from their current position, they could still see that there was a field after the dense forest.
The place where Chu Tian asked the carriage to go was the field behind the forest.
Chu Tian ordered all the soldiers to move naturally, and the guns and ammunition were still tied to the carriage.
But at this time, Chu Tian suddenly shouted again: "By the way, Shan Fei, take two people to the front and fire a few shots to see if you can lead the Japanese scouts away."
Shan Fei responded and ran forward with the two soldiers who had gone out with him to scout, and Chu Tian took the rest of the people to run to the head.
In this way, Chu Tian took the thirty people and ran to the hilltop with him, leaving only twenty people.
And except for Chu Tian who was in charge of commanding, the rest of the twenty people did the same work.
Two people in a group, one responsible for carrying the machine gun and the other responsible for taking the bullets!
There were other guns, but they were all the box guns they carried.
The reason was that all the machine gunners in their company were transferred here yesterday!
Generally speaking, each of the nine squads in a company would have a squad-based light machine gun. Of course, in Zhulai, some squads of the Chinese army did not have light machine guns, but they had portable light machine guns.
Although the portable light machine gun was actually a submachine gun or a carbine, the portable light machine gun was also a light machine gun, at least in China today.
The light machine gun configuration of the Eighth Route Army guerrillas did not meet this standard at all.
But who were Shang Zhen and the others? You asked them to equip the entire regiment, but they did have the ability to equip a battalion of three companies with light machine guns.
Due to the urgent enemy situation, no one knew what Chu Tian's combat intention was, and why he would transfer all the light machine guns to the front. Chu Tian did not have time to tell them, but since it was the order of the superior, let's do it!
When Chu Tian and his machine gunners ran up the hill panting, they saw the Japanese and puppet troops coming from afar along the road.
A squadron of Japanese soldiers had more than 200 people, plus hundreds of puppet soldiers, which stretched out a long line.
The machine gunners were busy setting up machine guns, and Chu Tian raised the telescope again.
He was looking for Japanese scouts.
When he found the scout team with both Japanese and puppet troops 200 to 300 meters away from the Japanese brigade, gunshots rang out.
Although the gunshots were mixed together, Chu Tian could tell that there were only three gunshots, because he only sent three people in total.
In the telescope, Chu Tian saw that a Japanese soldier and a puppet soldier were shot and fell down.
The rest of the Japanese soldiers naturally either lay down on the spot or looked for the direction of the bullet.
A simple preview showed the difference in military literacy between the Japanese and puppet soldiers.
In the telescope, Chu Tian clearly saw that a Japanese soldier pointed his rifle directly in front of the Japanese and puppet soldiers.
Chu Tian knew that according to the speed that Dan Fei and his team ran just now, the Japanese gun muzzle was pointing in the general direction of Dan Fei and his team.
Those who could go out to perform such a mission were of course veterans, and their shooting skills were naturally very accurate.
Next, Chu Tian saw that the Japanese soldiers began to aim and shoot, and then a Japanese and puppet soldier climbed up and ran in front of the Japanese and puppet soldiers.
At this moment, the Japanese and puppet soldiers' scouts reacted quickly. It seemed that only Dan Fei and his team's guns had just sounded, and the Japanese army had determined the approximate position of the shooter and began to chase.
Chu Tian didn't even need to look at it now, because he knew that Shan Fei and the other three must have run to the distant fields.
While Chu Tian was observing the Japanese and puppet troops, the old soldier who had already set up the light machine gun had not even forgotten to put wild grass on his hat.
At this time, the veterans had already understood Chu Tian's intention.
He asked Shan Fei to lead the Japanese scouts away, because he was afraid that the Japanese and puppet scouts would find them hiding on this hill that was not very high to be honest.
The scattered gunshots were fading away, because Shan Fei and his men led the Japanese and puppet scouts farther and farther away.
At this time, the large group of Japanese and puppet troops moved forward again.
Sure enough, just as Shan Fei's reconnaissance said, the Japanese and puppet troops were anxious to go to Shuiquan Town, and they really didn't want to get entangled with the small anti-Japanese team!
Are you anxious to go? But this time I won't let you do what you want! Chu Tiantian was ruthless. He felt that he had to fight this battle well. This was his first battle as a company commander!
