I fought guerrilla warfare in the Yimeng Mountains during the Anti-Japanese War

Chen Feng was the first to receive the news of the connection of the Jinpu Line and the news of the Japanese army's reinforcement, but he didn't take it seriously. Zhang Liang from the Second Battalion of the First Regiment had been stationed in the southern mountainous area for some time, and the team had grown from more than 500 people to 1,200 people. They had almost eliminated all the Japanese and puppet forces in the southern mountainous area, and could attack the Jinpu Line from Mount Tai to Jinan at any time. This was the killer move left by Chen Feng. No matter how airtight you manage the middle section of the Jinpu Line, don't you consider the safety of the northern and southern sections? Who gave you such mysterious confidence!

"Send a message to the Second Battalion of the First Regiment. Do not reveal your strength too early. You can continue to expand and train your troops as winter approaches. There is no need to rush to move the Jinpu Line, and do not expose your intention to destroy the Jinpu Line too early. The special forces can infiltrate covertly in the direction of Jinan and grasp the information of the airport and important targets."

Li Yunyan went out gracefully. Chen Feng was a little dazed looking at a telegram. The Haizhou port was overhauled and the railway line from Haizhou to Xuzhou was re-maintained. Chen Feng was very clear. The Japanese army looted materials in China. The coal in Shanxi went to Qinhuangdao. In Henan, Anhui, and Lincheng area of ​​Shandong, the coal mines all went to Haizhou (Lianyungang). This must be fought! Qinhuangdao is out of reach, and Haizhou must not be let go.

It's not just coal. In the past, the diking of the Huayuankou dike caused a large area of ​​the Yellow River flooding. Even so, the Japanese army still robbed 800 million tons of grain from China. Now the Yellow River flooding area is gone, and the Longhai Line passes through high-yield grain areas. Without considering the Northeast and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the amount of grain on both sides of the Longhai Line alone is an astronomical figure. How serious would the consequences of grain loss be? That would cost millions of lives. Those who have seen 1942 understand that the Longhai Line must be destroyed and the Haizhou (Lianyungang) port must be bombed, and this bombing must be even more severe than the Jinpu Line.

On December 12, Chen Feng recalled the commanders of the 10nd and rd Regiments of the Guards Regiment, and discussed the attack plan with Shen Zizhong, commander of the st Regiment of the New Fourth Division. Xuzhou was not considered, and the attack would start from the east of Pizhou. The Guards Regiment had no attack mission, but it would dispatch two battalions to join forces with the Lunan Detachment to guard the direction of Xuzhou and block enemy reinforcements.

The remaining three cities, Xin'an County, Donghai County and Haizhou City (Lianyungang City), were attacked by one battalion each from the Second and Third Regiments, and the remaining forces besieged Haizhou. In addition to killing the Japanese, it was important to blow up the railway lines and ports. The land in the north had begun to freeze, and after this battle, at least the Japanese would be unable to resume transportation before the spring.

Shen Honglie crossed his legs and listened to the plan, feeling that one regiment was too few.

"Brother, let's train my nine thousand new recruits! They have been training for some time, and they probably won't have much chance to go to the battlefield before and after the New Year. I can mobilize six thousand new recruits, and you can take charge of the arrangements. They are still lacking in numbers to fight the Japanese, but destroying the railway line will be no problem. With six thousand more people, they can overturn the railway line in one night!"

"I've thought about this before. Isn't this because I'm worried that if the combat effectiveness isn't up, it's easy to suffer too much damage?"

Shen Honglie shook his head.

"Brothers, this group of people must be trained hard. The team leader below said that there are still quite a few sly ones. We can take this opportunity to train them. If they can't keep up, I hope they will become assholes themselves so as not to affect the enthusiasm of the team."

"Okay, let them only carry light weapons, tools of destruction and explosives, and we will leave the railway line to them."

"Everyone, the Japanese Fourth Fleet may return at any time. We must act quickly and all units must be ready. We must set out in the afternoon of the 11th and arrive at the designated location before 12 pm. We will launch the attack at o'clock. We must withdraw from the battle at am on the th and evacuate in a dispersed manner. Do you understand?"

"understand".

"In addition, this time we are going to attack a city, so each unit should bring more rocket launchers. Third Regiment Commander, please tell us about Haizhou's defense situation!"

Wang Hanqiang stood up and Chen Feng gestured for him to sit down.

"There were two Japanese army regiments stationed in Kaizhou City, affiliated with the 116th Division of the Japanese Army. The two regiments were the Shimizu Regiment of Ichiro Shimizu and the Takeuchi Regiment of Shunji Takeuchi."

"The Qingshui Regiment is an infantry regiment stationed at Haizhou East Station and the port. In September this year, a battalion of troops was sent north to station in Ganyu District."

"The Takeuchi Brigade is stationed in the urban area, and its forces are mainly concentrated near the railway station, where there are large quantities of supplies and food. In addition, the Takeuchi Brigade belongs to a cavalry brigade. Haizhou has a flat terrain, which is suitable for cavalry raids. The direction of the station is heavily guarded, with many fortifications such as bunkers and hidden bunkers."

"Okay, let's divide the work! The Second Regiment and the First Regiment of the New Fourth Division are responsible for the Japanese troops in the urban area. I won't say much about fighting the cavalry. Make full use of the power of rocket launchers and machine guns and try not to let them charge."

"The Third Regiment is responsible for the Japanese troops at Haizhou East Station and the port. The battalion in Ganyu will be handed over to the Independent Regiment! Let Lu Feihu take two battalions there."

"The special forces of each unit should first deal with the Japanese and puppet troops along the way, and all the troops should go there by car. Since there are supplies there, we cannot come back empty-handed."

"Brother Shen, your new recruits should try to go there on horseback. After destroying the railway, if there is enough time, those who are close to Haizhou can go to Haizhou to carry some supplies back. Even if there are no good things, at least bring back food."

"Don't worry, we can still gather three thousand war horses."

"Okay, I will contact Chongqing and pay attention to the information of the Japanese Fourth Fleet. The plan will not be adjusted unless there is an unexpected attack. Everyone, go back and prepare after dinner!"

On the morning of the 11th, a secret telegram came from Chongqing stating that the Japanese Fourth Fleet was still off the coast of Guangzhou. The telegram also asked why Leng Qiang was inquiring about the Fourth Fleet's information and whether they were going to attack Qingdao again. Chen Feng did not reply and told Song Zihan to call back at o'clock in the evening to attack Haizhou.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Feng and the two battalions of the independent regiment set out. Forty trucks headed for Linyi City in a mighty procession. These were the only trucks at the foot of Mount Mengshan. After the meeting on the 10th, the other trucks were driven away by the Second and Third Regiments.

The two battalions were equipped with heavy firepower, including forty mortars, forty rocket launchers, and twenty anti-aircraft machine guns. Except for these special arms, the rest of the team members were all equipped with submachine guns. Chen Feng was still holding a 98k. This time, when attacking the Ganyu area, an infantry battalion still put some pressure on the two battalions of the independent regiment. They could only suppress the opponent through firepower configuration.

The convoy did not enter Linyi. It passed through Banquan, which is between Linyi and Junan, and headed straight for Zhubian Township, which belongs to Junan. Zhubian Township is actually the control area of ​​the Third Regiment. For safety reasons, it could not leave Zhubian and head for Ganyu District until dusk.

When the convoy arrived at Zhubian, a special operations platoon of the Third Regiment was already waiting. Members of the platoon looked at Chen Feng excitedly. They were the eyes of the Third Regiment in Haizhou area. They did not participate in the last attack on Qingdao. This was the first time they saw their captain after coming down the mountain.
