Chapter 552 Details determine success or failure

Gao Jiu asked the troops to hurry up and cook, and the troops set off after dinner.

He asked someone to connect to the telephone line of Chihe County. According to the Japanese regulations, the lower-level duty officer had to report to the superior duty officer at 6:10 pm every day. Gao Jiu waited until 6:30 and asked to get the duty phone number of the Japanese garrison in Chihe County.

He whispered Japanese.

The officers couldn't understand what he was saying, and looked at Gao Jiu curiously with confusion, and Ning Wen translated them while on the side.

After Gao Jiu was about to make a phone call, the Japanese duty officer scolded him, why didn't he report on time?

Gao Jiu said that the Liuzhuang stronghold was attacked by the Anti-Japanese Army. The Squad Leader of Sakata said that after the situation of the Anti-Japanese Army was found out, he would report to his superiors. Gao Jiu said that there was a little accident just now. When the Squad Leader of Sakata went out, he was killed by the enemy's mortar shells and the telephone line was also broken. He was a communications soldier. He had just repaired the telephone line and quickly reported to the brigade headquarters.

The reason why Gao Jiu said this is because he was worried that the other party would hear unfamiliar voices, which led to suspicion.

An ordinary correspondent called, and it was normal for the on-duty officer to be unfamiliar with his voice. As for the name of the Sakata team leader, there is a roster in the artillery tower and his name is also on the on-duty list.

The other party had no doubts, so he asked Gao Jiu, who pretended to be a communications soldier to report on the situation of the anti-Japanese army.

Gao Jiu told the other side that there were about 300 anti-Japanese troops, including machine guns and mortars, and the telephone line leading to Gaoyang Town was also cut off. They had sent people to Gaoyang Town to report the news. It is unknown whether they could be contacted. The anti-Japanese troops were fierce and the situation was critical. They asked the brigade headquarters to send reinforcements to rescue immediately.

The duty officer told him not to activate the phone, wait for a reply, and then go to report the situation. The duty officer soon returned and said that in 20 minutes, the troops would set off and let them stay waiting for assistance.

Gao Jiu deliberately said that the anti-Japanese soldiers were in large numbers and asked them to send more people to avoid losses.

The duty officer said impatiently that the main force of the brigade, both squadrons were dispatched, and there was also a squadron of the Peace Army, so that they must guard the stronghold and wait until the main force of the Japanese army arrives, and they should work together inside and outside to annihilate the enemy.

The officers all admire Gao Jiu and others for being fluent in Japanese, and at the same time they admire their adaptability and meticulous thinking. Now they have not only transferred the main Japanese army in Chihe County, but also learned about their military strength.

The officers then realized that when Gao Jiu started attacking the Liuzhuang stronghold, he thought of the subsequent series of battles, one by one, just like a clever chess player, taking three steps at one step.

The name of a person and the shadow of a tree. The officers were deeply impressed. It seemed that Gao Jiu was not only brave enough to fight, but also to rely on dazzling strategies. No wonder they could always win more with less and fight beautiful battles one by one.

The officers had been in contact with Gao Jiu for less than a day, and they felt that they had learned more tactical things than they had learned in military academy for several years.

Section Chief Li said with some concern: "Master Jiu, the Japanese have already been dispatched, so let's go out quickly. Otherwise, we won't eat anymore and we will eat when we come back from the war."

The officers were also worried about what he said, thinking that they should act quickly, otherwise time would be too hasty.

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, finish the meal steadily. The Japanese are 32 kilometers away from here. The Japanese are infantrymen. It takes at least three hours to walk here with their legs. We don't need to run so far to fight the ambush. Just find a place outside Liuzhuang to use Yi instead."

Seeing Gao Jiu so confident, everyone felt relieved.

Section Chief Li is a meticulous person. He felt something was wrong and didn't understand why Gao Jiu was so careless this time. In theory, he should be optimistic about the ambush position in advance, and he can't waste time just to have a meal.

Although he had questions in his heart, out of trust in Gao Jiu, he did not ask a question immediately, but was wondering why Gao Jiu did this.

Suddenly he discovered the problem. Gao Jiu's follower was a pair of twin brothers. Here, he only saw Ning Wen, but not his younger brother Ning Wu.

He understood a little and asked, "Master Jiu, has your brother already checked the terrain?"

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "Yes, Ning Wu has already checked the ambush position."

When the officers heard the conversation between Section Chief Li and Gao Jiu, they also understood. They now deeply admire Gao Jiu's meticulous thinking. They really don't understand that people are so young and so experienced in doing things. No wonder those Japanese suffer losses under his hands.

After the army finished their meal, they left the Liuzhuang stronghold. Before leaving, Gao Jiu asked Battalion Commander Wang to leave a squad of people. Two hours later, he began to fire guns around Liuzhuang, and could throw one or two grenades at a time, creating the illusion of continued fierce fighting here, and at the same time, Ning Wen cut off the telephone line.

Seeing this, Section Chief Li was a little confused. He asked: "Master Jiu, shouldn't you cut off the phone line? The Japanese will come to check the situation here at any time. Wouldn't it be better to leave someone to deceive the Japanese?"

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "The reason for cutting the phone line is because I have said just now that the phone line from Liuzhuang to Gaoyang Town has been cut off. So if the phone line here is not cut off by the Anti-Japanese Army, it would be unreasonable.

The Japanese troops had correspondents, and they could also send people to climb up the telephone poles along the way and call the Liuzhuang stronghold. If the phone was connected and the Japanese army wanted to call the commander here, we could not make him a commander who was familiar to the other party, and the matter would be revealed.

The phone could not be connected, and they couldn't figure out the situation, so they were even more anxious to come and reinforcements."

Section Chief Li and the officers saw Gao Jiu doing things so thoughtfully, and they became more and more admiring him.

The troops left Liuzhuang about two kilometers and saw Ning Wu walking towards them. Ning Wu said, "Jiu Ye, there is a position suitable for ambushing not far ahead."

This time, Gao Jiu did not set up a position, but asked the officers of the 77th Division to set up their own positions. As a result, they also set up an inverted triangle position.

It can be seen that these officers are also good at learning.

More than two hours later, the Japanese officers and soldiers ran over with short legs and were very tired. There were about 300 Japanese soldiers, and more than 100 puppet troops.

When they entered the ambush position, they could vaguely hear gunshots and explosions in the direction of Liuzhuang.

As he wanted to fight the enemy, the Japanese commander became careful. He decided that the troops would stop advancing temporarily and send people to investigate the situation first, and then make a decision. The Japanese in front stopped, and the Japanese behind gradually followed, and the teams that had been long gathered together.

It was already 9:30 pm at this time, but there was bright moonlight tonight, so the situation of the Japanese could still see clearly.

The officers of the 77th Division were originally worried that the Japanese army's marching line was too long and it would be difficult to kill them in large quantities during the ambush. Unexpectedly, the Japanese and puppet troops were so obedient and got together obediently.

Most of these officers graduated from the military school and were very smart people. Only then did they realize that Gao Jiu's calculations were so accurate that the reason why he chose to set up an ambush at a place so close to Liuzhuang was to calculate that the Japanese would stay temporarily when they arrived here and send people to investigate the situation.

The officers all sighed very much that Master Gao Jiu is Master Gao Jiu, and everything is so smart that no matter who encounters such an enemy, he will feel a headache.

Seeing the enemies gathered together and such a good opportunity, Gao Jiu was naturally not polite. He picked up his sniper rifle and fired the first shot at a Japanese army riding a horse.

The tactics this time were the same as last time. A large number of grenades and a large number of seized grenades exploded violently on the road. This time, because it was dark, the Guo army was ambushed near the highway, and their firepower could be fully utilized. Therefore, although the Japanese reinforcements were large this time, they were easier to fight than the Japanese reinforcements last time. Because the distance was close enough to fully utilize their firepower advantages, Gao Jiu did not immediately order the charge, but ordered the troops to use firepower to continuously attack the Japanese and puppet troops.

The firepower of the inverted triangle position was not dead, and the Japanese and puppet troops on the road had nowhere to hide, and there were heavy casualties.

After fighting for five minutes, Gao Jiu saw that the enemy's resistance had basically been disintegrated, so he ordered a charge.

This time, the National Army's casualties were still only more than twenty people, annihilated 369 Japanese troops, more than 120 puppet troops, and more than 20 prisoners were captured.

After interrogating the prisoners, Gao Jiu and others learned that there were less than 200 Japanese and puppet troops in Chihe County. They decided to attack the county town overnight.

At two o'clock in the morning, the troops arrived near the county town.

Gao Jiu asked Section Chief Li and others to lead the main force of the troops to ambush near the south gate of the county town, and asked Ning Wen and Ning Wu to select more than a dozen capable National Army soldiers to open the city gate.

Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others led a team to climb up the city wall not far from the south gate of the county town, and then touched towards the city gate.

Not long after, gunshots sounded near the South Gate, and Gao Jiu ordered the troops to quickly approach the city gate.

Before the troops arrived, the city gate had been opened. Ning Wen, Ning Wu and others destroyed the enemy troops guarding the city gate and welcomed the troops into the city.

By interrogating the prisoners, Gao Jiu and others had already mastered the deployment of the Japanese and puppet troops in the city in advance. According to the advance deployment, after the troops entered the city, they divided into three groups to attack the Japanese brigade headquarters, the military police and the Peace Army brigade headquarters.

An hour later, all other targets of the Japanese and puppet troops in the city were wiped out, leaving only a small group of Japanese troops hiding in the Japanese brigade headquarters and still resisting stubbornly.

Because the Japanese army was familiar with the terrain and occupied the territory, the officers and soldiers of the guo army launched two charges and were repelled, causing considerable casualties.

At this time, Gao Jiu, who had finished the battle with the puppet army, rushed over. He asked the officers and soldiers of the guo army to stop charging and surround the enemy on all sides. Then he brought Ning Wen and Ning Wu, carrying a bag of grenades, and approached the enemy.

After throwing more than 30 grenades in a row, the Japanese army in the yard no longer moved.

Gao Jiu's magical method opened his eyes to the army officers and soldiers.

After entering the Japanese brigade headquarters, Gao Jiu smiled and said to Section Chief Li, Battalion Commander Wang and others: "Now, you can report the victory to the division."

Section Chief Li, Battalion Commander Wang and others had been itchy for a long time, hoping to report the victory to the division commander as soon as possible. However, after the previous few battles, Gao Jiu did not mention this, so they kept it to this point. When they heard Gao Jiu say this, they were very excited and hurriedly sent a telegram to the division commander to report the victory.

The 77th Division Division Headquarters.

Commander He Chongshan, Chief of Staff Li and senior officers of the 77th Division were waiting for news from Gao Jiu and others. Although they had heard of Gao Jiu's glorious achievements, they did not see them with their own eyes.

The reinforcement battalion sent by the 70th Division this time is the most elite unit of the 77th Division. They are very worried that if the battle is not smooth, they will lose these backbones.

As the day passed and there was still no news, everyone couldn't help but be worried.

Although Teacher He was lying on the bed, he still couldn't sleep. It was almost dawn that he fell asleep in a daze.

"Bang bang bang!" The door suddenly rang.

He Chongshan was shocked and sat up from the bed. He asked, "What's the matter?"

Chief Li's excited voice came from outside, and he shouted: "Secretary, good news! Mr. Gao and Section Chief Li and others won a big victory."

He Chongshan hurried over and opened the door, asking, "What's the matter?"

Director Li handed over the telegram and said excitedly: "You can read it yourself, Master."

After reading the telegram, He Chongshan was extremely excited. He annihilated a whole infantry brigade of the Japanese army, a battalion of the puppet army, and also captured a county town. This was a great contribution.

You should know that after the Battle of Changsha, the troops of the guo army have always been on the defensive position. Being able to capture a county town dominated by the Japanese army would definitely cause a sensation.

When he saw the telegram saying that there were less than 100 casualties in the guo army, he said with emotion: "Chief Staff Li, Mr. Gao is worthy of being Mr. Gao Jiu. I really can't think of how they fought this battle?"

Chief of Staff Li said excitedly: "Teacher, we have made a lot of money this time. Not only have we wiped out so many Japanese soldiers and captured a county town, but the most important thing is that we have sent so many officers to study with Master Gao Jiu, and the combat effectiveness of our division will be greatly improved in the future."

He proposed this idea first, and now he admired his foresight and couldn't help but praise it.

Teacher He was very happy. He said, "Old Li, your suggestion is very good. You are right. We have made a lot of money this time."

In order to avoid the enemy coming to take revenge, Gao Jiu and others searched the county town, and at 10 a.m., they withdrew from the county town and returned to the garrison of the 77th Division.

This was a brilliant victory. Commander He and Chief of Staff Li organized all the officers and soldiers and ordinary people in the division headquarters to welcome Gao Jiu and the officers and soldiers of the strengthening battalion outside the city.

The 77th Division's reinforcement battalion returned with a full load this time, seized a large number of weapons and ammunition, and captured a lot of prisoners, showing a big face in front of the people. Not only that, they also gained a lot of money. Under the guidance of Gao Jiu and others, they plundered a lot of money, worth more than 300,000 oceans.

Gao Jiu and others also opened the prison in the county and released many underground party members. The underground party members called to express their gratitude to Gao Jiu.

The 77th Division grandly hosted Gao Jiu, Ning Wen and Ning Wu, and distributed Gao Jiu 100,000 oceans from the seized materials.

After fighting this battle, Gao Jiu's anger gradually calmed down. Gao Jiu and others rested for a day, and the next morning, they bid farewell to the 77th Division and prepared to leave.

He Chongshan and others tried to keep Gao Jiu, hoping that Gao Jiu could teach all the officers of the division a tactical lesson based on his experience in this battle. It was difficult to refuse his affection, so Gao Jiu had to agree.

In the small auditorium of the division headquarters, He Chongshan and others led more than 200 officers from the division to listen to Gao Jiu's lecture. In order to show his grandeur, He Chongshan and Chief of Staff Li and others sat in the audience to listen to the lecture.

Gao Jiu combined this battle example to explain in detail from various aspects such as the judgment of the enemy situation, terrain selection, combat characteristics of the enemy and us, and the use of troops.

Gao Jiu's explanation is easy to understand and easy to understand. The officers of the 77th Division can understand it. Especially those officers who participated in the battle with him this time have a deeper understanding of Gao Jiu's tactical explanation.

After the class, Gao Jiu offered to say goodbye again. He Chongshan and others reluctantly parted, saying goodbye. In order to thank Gao Jiu, He Chongshan gave Gao Jiu another 20,000 yuan, saying that it was the lecture fee, so he asked him to accept it. They sent Gao Jiu to the city gate and wanted to watch Gao Jiu and others leave.
