470 Enter Hongdong
...In the evening, Xu Zilin got angry and almost scolded all the cadres of the regiment headquarters. Just when she was not careful, as the highest commander of the regiment, Han Feng actually followed the commando team and went deep into Hongdong County alone.
This is not what the team leader should do. It is just a dereliction of duty. Xu Zilin lost her temper because of this, but she was helpless. She couldn't really report to the headquarters!
"How long have the leader and the others left?"
Zhang Dong smiled bitterly and said, "The political commissar, the regiment commander and others set off at around 6 o'clock. It has been more than an hour now."
Xu Zilin nodded and looked at the sky that had fallen into the darkness. He was still angry and said, "This old Han, let's talk about him well when he comes back."
In a corner of Hongdong County, several black shadows kept passing through the streets and alleys.
The economic development of Hongdong County can only be considered ordinary. When night falls, it is natural that the entire county town cannot be brightly lit. Occasionally, there are several families who sleep late, and the faint light of candles or kerosene lamps flashes in the house, which will soon be extinguished. Kerosene and candles are also scarce things, and no one can bear to use them more. In this era, human activities mostly follow the rules of working from sunrise to sunset.
The entire county town's buildings basically use the ruins left by the late Qing Dynasty, surrounded by wide and thick city walls several meters or even dozens of meters. I don't know how long the circumference is. In short, it is surrounded by the area of the county town. Unless it enters from one of the four gates in the southeast, southwest and northwest, it can only fly in with wings.
Most of these city walls are made of bricks, glutinous rice mortar, loess and other materials. They are very strong. Even if the Japanese artillery shells are bombed continuously for half an hour, they may not be able to be blown up.
The Qing people still paid great attention to Feng Shui, and even the position of the city gate facing is quite particular, most of which are four directions, east, west, south, north, and of course, there are also some more. Open several small city gates with a biased orientation for convenience.
During this period, in order to ensure the public security in the county, the Japanese army usually closed the city gates very early, and did not give any opportunity to the anti-Japanese armed forces. Han Feng and his party put on makeup and became commoners and mingled among a group of people. After several rounds and searches, they entered the county gates. Not long after, the city gates were closed tightly.
Han Feng had previously looked at the structure of the south city gate of Hongdong County where he entered. In addition to the stable city wall, there was also a triple city tower at the city gate. If it were in ancient times, the three towers might have been gate towers, arrow towers, main towers, and the inner and outer structures of the city walls. There were all kinds of military offensive and defense facilities such as moats, gate towers, suspension bridges, corner towers, and stents.
However, in this era, with the large number of use of thermal weapons, these military facilities that were originally used in the old days were greatly reduced and were gradually abandoned and gradually forgotten.
When Han Feng and his party entered the city, they noticed that in the third floor of the city gate, light machine guns were installed on the first, second and third floors. In addition, a team of Japanese troops and a team of puppet troops guarding, plus abundant ammunition, with the advantage of condescending firepower, the defense at the city gate tower was tight. In addition, the top of the wall was several meters wide, and the tops on both sides of the city tower could accommodate hundreds of troops. Under such firepower, no wonder the pitiful scarce equipment of the anti-Japanese armed forces had never heard of any deeds of capturing the Japanese county town in so many years.
It was not until in recent years that Li Yunlong's independent regiment first captured Ping'an County, and then Han Feng's New Third Regiment captured Heyuan County and Wucheng County, which was a precedent for attacking the Japanese County.
No wonder Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army stationed in the Three Jins, hated Li Yunlong and Han Feng to the core. These two initiators were here, and the anti-Japanese armed forces behind them followed suit, and the public security of a large number of Japanese troops suffered unprecedented impacts.
The Japanese army, who were forced to do so, knew that the symptoms were not the root cause, could only send a large number of troops to sweep the Eighth Route Army bases in a helpless manner, attempting to improve this situation.
In Hongdong County, the houses of ordinary residents do not have the luxurious structures like the city walls. Most of them are brick and wood structures, and the poor even have thatched. When they are close to the prosperous areas of the county, there are only a few wealthy families who build bungalows. As for foreign buildings, they can be seen occasionally, but the identity of such families is self-evident, and there will be some Japanese in need.
Walking next to the old pebbled path, the only light that can be used is the bright moonlight tonight.
"Third brother, let's go here!"
The big bull whispered to lead the way, and several figures walked forward in the darkness and soon arrived at a house.
Although this house is not magnificent or even a bit dilapidated, it is still spacious. Compared with the surrounding brick and wood structures covered with tiles and even thatched houses, it is already a gorgeous residence.
Li Hai cursed in a low voice: "This is a little puppet army captain, and he lives in a very small place."
Han Feng laughed and said, "This is the way the Japanese devils win over the hearts of the people. One is to rely on guns and the other is to rely on interests. Otherwise, why would there be so many surrender factions?
Let me say something more self-deprecating to everyone. If we really talk about it, our Chinese people will live a little better in the enemy-occupied areas ruled by the Japanese army. They are not enemy-occupied areas, Guojun-regulated areas, and suburban villages, and are suffering from the destruction of various forces, and the people can hardly survive."
Bao Taiping whispered: "Third Brother, if you say so, would it be better to let the Japanese rule over us?"
Han Feng mocked: "Of course not, the Japanese are ambitions. The reason why they use this policy of gentleness is to paralyze our Chinese people. Why? In the final analysis, our China is too big. It is impossible for the Japanese to eat us in one bite, so they can only use this beastly means to invade our country in disguise.
Once their invasion is successful, or if our people show a little bit of things that will not let them go, the Japanese will immediately reveal their true colors. Are there still fewer massacres in various cases?"
Li Hai cursed: "These Japanese devils are really poisonous.
The third brother is right. The Japanese have never been kind-hearted. It is impossible to expect them to be kind-hearted. We have to kill them all and kill them out of China completely.”
"Yes, kill all these dogs!"
"We can't let them go out of our territory alive."
The team members were filled with righteous indignation.
Han Feng said: "Everyone is right. The Japanese will surrender sooner or later. If they surrender, they will leave China for nothing? That is absolutely impossible. Blood debts must be paid with blood. The Japanese have committed so many crimes in our territory. I hope to let them give them a digit, let them repent and reform themselves? I have a delusion.
If you fall behind, you will be beaten. If you are kind and ruthless, you will be cowardly.
I don’t care about other troops. In my New Third Regiment, there are no prisoners and no one left behind."
yes
The team members responded in a low voice.
"Let's go into the yard and let the two Japanese invite us to dinner. I'm still empty all the way!"
A few figures, not knowing how to move, did not walk through the main door or the back door, and the two-meter-high courtyard wall flipped over and landed on the ground, with almost no movement...
