As soon as Captain Liu and Political Commissar Lin heard that Zhou Wu had an important task handed over to them, they immediately opened their hearts and hurriedly stood up and said: "If the commander has any tasks, we will guarantee to complete the tasks."
Zhou Wu smiled and said to them: "Take your time, don't worry, I want to hear about the situation of your Mengshan first, how is the terrain of your place Look at the map, the mountains are undulating, the location is very dangerous, you are a local native, let's talk about the situation first." ” Captain Liu and Political Commissar Lin were a little unhappy when they saw that Zhou Wu first asked them to introduce the situation, and Zhou Wu saw their emotions, so he smiled and said to them: "I plan to set up an ambush in your Mengshan, I must first understand the terrain and landform of your place."
What's the matter, isn't this a combat mission" "Oh, that's not what it means, to say that we have a lot of mountains in Mengshan, there are big mountains everywhere, endless, winding and winding, and in the west, those mountains are all bare stone mountains, there is not a single grass and trees on the mountain, when we were there to fight guerrilla warfare against small Japan, we were surrounded by devils on the stone mountain, almost dying of thirst, fortunately, the local villagers risked their lives to send things up the mountain, only barely survived, I want to say, ambush, choose our Mengshan where the best, as long as the enemy comes in, Everywhere you can hit them.
Captain Liu introduced the topography of Mengshan to Zhou Wu.
Zhou Wu heard this, and immediately asked Captain Liu: "Is there a water source nearby, I see that there is a place called Mengshangu on the map, you can tell me in detail." ” "We are too familiar with that Mengshangu, it is a square stone mountain, there is almost no water on it, the nearest water source is in the Yi River twenty miles away, how can the People's Liberation Army set up an ambush there, this is not good, if the enemy does not come in, the brothers' drinking water will become a big problem, we were trapped on the stone mountain by the devils, there are few people, the villagers can solve the problem by sending us water, you have so many people, it is absolutely not good."
Captain Liu shook his head again and again, he heard Zhou Wu ask him about the situation of Mengshangu, thinking that Zhou Wu was going to ambush the nearby enemy there, so he hurriedly said kind words to dissuade him.
Zhou Wu smiled and shook his head: "We want to invite the enemy's forty-seventh division to come over, as long as we lead them to that Mengshangu, then the rest of the matter will be easy to handle, in this way, Lao Xu, where is the forty-seventh division now" Zhou Wu turned his head and asked the chief of staff Lao Xu.
"According to the previous intelligence, the 47th Division is advancing all the way, and it is less than a few dozen kilometers away from Linyi, and at this marching speed, it will be able to reach Linyi City before dark today."
Chief of Staff Lao Xu said.
"Finally broke in, in this way, Lao Xu, immediately ordered Lao Liu, who was guarding the city, to quickly evacuate in the direction of Mengshan, Ge Sanmin, Xiao Zheng and Huang Shuisheng and their teams covered Lao Liu's first division to retreat, and led the forty-seventh division in the direction of Mengshan, telling the fat man, don't withdraw too quickly at once, lest Zhang be suspicious, so as not to lure them into Yimengshan Mountain."
Zhou Wu immediately began the deployment of the campaign, he felt that the time was ripe at this moment, as long as he could bring in all the 47th Division, in the ravines and ravines in Yimeng Mountain, even if the 47th Division was strong in combat, first lead them by the nose and walk around the mountains twice, and then concentrate all the troops at hand to make dumplings After the fat man received the order to retreat, he couldn't figure it out in his heart, this Linyi City was finally snatched from the hands of the enemy, and he didn't sit down yet, and he was going to give up again, he was really a little unwilling, but he didn't dare to disobey Zhou Wu's order, remembering that Zhou Wu had told him to pretend to be like some and not show his feet, so he ordered his first division to leave one regiment to block the 47th Division on the grass and wood mountain south of Linyi City, and the rest of the team all withdrew in the direction of Mengshan, and the fat man was good at holding his position, If you know that you want to lure the enemy in, this link that stays to block the attack after the break is quite important, and the success of the entire plan to lure the enemy is related to whether the block attack is good or not, if you fight too tenaciously and block the enemy in front of the position, it will not work, the enemy will see that there is no play in the onslaught here, then you have to choose another way, in this case, the task of luring the enemy will not be completed, you must fight just right, and at the moment when the enemy thinks that you are about to break through the blocking position, retreat in a timely manner is the key.
At present, among the officers under Zhou Wu, the one who can skillfully grasp this timing is none other than the fat man, which is why Zhou Wu let the fat man's first division be responsible for the task of luring the enemy, Ge Sanmin, Xiao Zheng and Huang Shuisheng cooperated with them on the flank to cover.
After the order was issued, the team of the first division withdrew in the direction of Mengshan with great fanfare, and he personally led a regiment to Caomu Mountain in the south of the city to block the 47th Division, the fat man also has a hobby, that is, the more dangerous the front, the more interested he is, and feels that it is enjoyable to fight like this, always staying in the command post in the back, in a daze at the map and telegram, he can't stand it, it is better to take his brothers to fight against the enemy in the forefront position.
The news of the fat man's large army evacuating out of Linyi City to Yimeng Mountain soon spread to the commander of the 47th Division, Zhang, Lao Zhang hurriedly looked at the map, laughed, and said proudly to his subordinate officers: "Sure enough, as I expected, Linyi's began to flee, and ordered the first brigade in front to speed up the march, quickly pass through the grass and wood mountains, and capture Linyi, the large army quickly followed, and the artillery regiment prepared artillery support, brothers, let's work harder, and drink celebration wine in Linyi City at night."
It is no wonder that he, with 30,000 well-trained male soldiers under his command, plus tanks and armored vehicles to help, has a large number of artillery, exceeding the number of all the artillery in Shandong, and although the Linyi city on the opposite side is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it has taken the initiative to give up Linyi and quickly fled towards the Yimeng Mountains in the north As soon as Division Commander Zhang gave the military order, Brigade Commander Huang of the First Brigade at the front of the 47th Division quickly ordered the tank regiment at the front to speed up and quickly pass through Caomu Mountain, in the south of Linyi, only the terrain of Caomu Mountain is considered a dangerous terrain, as long as it passes through this place, there is no danger to defend in other places, even if there is an ambush on Caomu Mountain, then with their own tank regiment and a large number of infantry to cover the attack and advance, forgive those who can't resist it, do they have decent weapons to deal with tanks and armored vehicles The tank regiment of the 47th Division rushed towards the grass and wood mountain, the dust was flying along the way, and the sound of the tank engine "rumbled" resounded in the south of Linyi City, the local villagers thought that some monster was coming, and a few brave villagers hurriedly came to take a look, and found that a large number of iron bumps drove over on the road leading to Linyi City.
Watching these tanks and armored vehicles of the Kuomintang army rushing towards Linyi City, those fellow villagers scolded in their mouths: "Don't look at the majesty of these things, it's not a pile of scrap metal when you get to the People's Liberation Army, it's useless."
The tanks of the 47th Division Tank Regiment have not yet driven to the side of Caomu Mountain, and the fat man who is ambushing in Caomu Mountain has already gotten the news, and he has heard that there are many tanks and armored vehicles that have come over, and the fat man feels that he does not have a guy at hand who can take advantage of the tank, so he should bear with it first, let go of this batch of enemy tanks, and focus on the enemy infantry behind.
The fat man ordered his brothers on the position: "Let go of the enemy tanks in front, give me a hand against the enemy infantry behind, pay attention to cooperation, and no one is allowed to shoot until I have not fired" As soon as the commander of the leading tank regiment saw that there was Caomu Mountain in front of him, he used a communication machine in the tank to order the tanks and armored vehicles behind him to suspend their advance, and used firepower to guard the surrounding area to prevent ambushes in the area of Caomu Mountain The fat man lying in ambush on the hillside saw that the enemy tanks were about to fire, thinking that his whereabouts had been detected by the enemy tanks, and he was about to pull out the Browning pistol on his waist and fire, thinking to himself: Don't worry, let's see where these tanks are going to fire The tank guns began to bombard in turns, because it was fire reconnaissance, those Kuomintang tank soldiers had no target to bombard the slopes on both sides of the hill, and the heavy machine guns on the side of the turret also began to roar, for a while, the surrounding hillside shook the ground, the fire soared into the sky, the smoke was everywhere, and the movement was loud, but it could not blow up the fat man's brothers who were ambushed on the hillside, at this moment the fat man knew, it turned out that these tanks were fired indiscriminately, and they didn't find that there was an ambush on the hillside here.
Those tank bombardments are actually emboldening themselves The enemy tanks bombarded and strafed the surrounding hillsides, and when they found that there was no response, they quickly stopped the bombardment and reported to Division Commander Zhang in the rear: "Fire reconnaissance was carried out in front, no ambush was found, and it was safe to pass" As soon as he heard that the tank team in front of him said that he had not found any problems and did not check it carefully, he hurriedly ordered the 1st Infantry Brigade that followed behind the tanks to immediately catch up and capture Linyi City with the tank regiment, and he wanted to capture Linyi before dark and have dinner in the city The enemy tank regiment in front received the order to advance rapidly, so they drove at full speed and rushed towards Linyi City, while the infantry of the 1st Brigade of the 47th Division, which followed closely behind, rushed through the grass and wood mountains and rushed towards Linyi under the shouting of Brigade Commander Huang.
At this moment, a black and oppressive thing suddenly fell down on the hillside on both sides of the road, and quickly exploded in the middle of the infantry ranks, and then, a storm of bullets and bullets spilled down, and a row of enemy infantry fell to the ground on the spot, and Brigade Commander Huang hurriedly jumped out of the jeep and shouted to his officers: "We have encountered an ambush, immediately organize a counterattack" t1706231537:
