The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 148 Kong Jie's Deployment

around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Kong Jie rushed to Xinzhuang with a reinforced company.

Perhaps because of writing the "Military Military Training Manual" with Kong Jie, Zhao Gang paid special attention to the development of the militia in Xinzhuang.

After meeting with the captains of several militia teams in Xinzhuang, Zhao Gang asked them about the daily military training of the militia comrades.

The result is naturally unsatisfactory.

The four militia brigades had a total of nearly one hundred and ten people, but the total number of guns did not exceed twenty.

None of the four of them could carry a gun. As far as that was concerned, most of them were old guns that were about to be eliminated, and some of them might not be able to shoot well on the battlefield.

The captains were reluctant to use it during training, and the militia members even used wooden guns for training.

As for the training items of the militiamen, there is a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, which is not systematic.

After all, it is a militia organization mainly engaged in farming and supplemented by training.

When Kong Jie took out the meeting gift and dozens of guns brought to the militiamen, the eyes of several militia captains lit up and thanked Kong Jie repeatedly.

In the original words of one of the militia captains, "Commander Kong, with these guys, our equipment is almost as good as that of the guerrillas, so we don't have to worry about it now."

After bidding farewell to several militia captains, Kong Jie said to Zhao Gang: "Old Zhao, let's excerpt a part of the militia military manual we wrote and simplify it to apply to Xinzhuang. Send some to Xinzhuang."

"By the way, arrange a few more literate cadres to help these militia captains train Xinzhuang's militia properly."

"Okay, don't worry, I will arrange this matter." Zhao Gang responded.

When Kong Jie led the team away from Xinzhuang, the comrades of the militia looked at the various guns equipped by the soldiers of the reinforced company, and felt the might and majesty of the soldiers of the regular army. Their expressions were full of admiration and yearning.

Some children even said to their grandfather, "Grandpa, when I grow up, I want to join the Eighth Route Army!"

The villagers were sent all the way to the village entrance, and Kong Jielang said in a loud voice: "Thank you, folks, let's all go back! Militia comrades, come on, you are the frontline force protecting the villagers and the cornerstone of our Eighth Route Army's strength. You can relax." No way! You have to do farm work, and don’t miss out on military training in your spare time. After a while, I will send cadres to send training manuals, and some cadres will be responsible for special guidance. As long as you have enough training and the training is in place, The independent group welcomes you at any time!"

"it is good--"

The militiamen answered with joy.

After leaving Xinzhuang, Kong Jie led the team all the way to Luomapo.

The terrain of this Luomapo is peculiar, with high slopes on both sides, and a gentle mountain road about ten meters wide below. On weekdays, people basically walk instead of cars, so the small mountain road is distributed in strips, and people often walk on the road. Because the clods of soil are hardened by being stepped on, it is not easy to grow grass, and it is bare. The places that are not often stepped on have grass that can reach ankles.

"This is the place. According to the information, this group of devils is very likely to pass by here."

Li Yunlong said: "Luomapo is not too far from Xinzhuang. It's only less than two miles away. It takes only a few minutes to get there. What's the kid doing here? Are you going to Xinzhuang? But you said that there are not many devils, and with such a small number of devils, they dare to come under our noses to cause trouble? Old Kong, is your news reliable or not?"

Li Yunlong, who has a keen military sense, spotted the problem at a glance.

Kong Jiele said: "Lao Li, what if I say it's a cavalry?"

"Cavalry? Do you really think that cavalry are wild vegetables on the side of the road, and you can step on several of them with one foot?" Li Yunlong was a little suspicious, but while talking, he suddenly realized a terrible problem.

"Damn it, old Kong, so you are really a cavalry?"

"Why did you suddenly figure it out again?" Kong Jie asked with a smile.

Li Yunlong said: "I thought about it carefully just now, there are not many devils, and they are rushing to our Xinzhuang, so there is only one possibility - cavalry!"

"The devils took advantage of the high-speed maneuverability of the cavalry to suddenly attack the villages in our base area. It's not like the devils haven't done this kind of thing before."

"In the face of this situation, we often have a headache, because we can't get accurate information, and the speed of the devil's cavalry is too fast. Even if the villagers discovered the news of the devil's cavalry in advance, there is no time to pass it on."

"After the devil cavalry plundered and slaughtered, they rode away directly. When our troops arrived, the day lily was cold."

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong said with emotion: "The devil's oriental horses are better than the puppet army's war horses. Old Kong, you are really lucky. You just captured a cavalry company in front of you. Now the devil will give you another horse." coming?"

Kong Jie warned: "Don't eat what's in the bowl, but look at what's in the pot."

"What do you mean, is I that kind of person?" Li Yunlong sighed and said, "Old Kong, from the fourth battalion, to the cavalry company, to this deputy commander, I have not missed your favor. I can also get a cavalry, and I feel better."

"There's nothing to say. As long as the devil's cavalry dares to come over, they won't even think about going back."

Kong Jie smiled, "This is more or less the same. It's the old Li I know who has a clear grievance."

Ha ha ha ha--

"Old Kong, don't give me a high hat, maybe I will regret it again!"

"It's useless to regret it, you are a part-time worker, what if you fail?" Kong Jie stared.

When the ambush deployment was arranged, Li Yunlong asked, "When will the devil's cavalry arrive?"

"uncertain."

"how many people?"

"A squadron or so."

"How about the equipment?"

Kong Jie raised his head and glanced at Li Yunlong, "I said, Lao Li, are you still going to finish? Let me tell you, you are here to help out in this battle, just wait and see."

Li Yunlong stopped talking. In fact, he still has some doubts. Is Kong Jie's information accurate?The devils would send out cavalry to attack Xinzhuang, but the intelligence message was intercepted by this old Kong. Is it true?
If it is true, it seems that the enemy industry department developed by this independent regiment really has two brushes, and the new second regiment will have to be there in the future.

"One battalion commander, one battalion commander?"

"To!"

Wang Leihu, the commander of the first battalion, was called. Kong Jie took a branch and drew some sketches in an open space, mainly circles with some distances apart, and a simple schematic diagram of the distribution, and then said: "This time, I will let everyone Bring an engineering shovel and a foreign pick, and according to the schematic diagram I drew, dig some traps like this on the ground of this mountain road in Luomapo. The specific size, depth, and diameter of the trap circle are up to you. Thinking about it, there is only one request, if the devil’s war horse comes, at least I must trap the devil’s horse so that it can’t even get up.”

"In addition, after encountering a horse trap, the devils may walk the low slopes on both sides and plant some landmines on the low slopes."

"Yes!" Wang Leihu replied, the trap was very simple to make, and he immediately understood what Kong Jie meant.

Kong Jie explained to Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong: "The devil's cavalry rushed over, most of them were light cavalry. To eliminate such a light cavalry, the strange terrain of Luomapo is undoubtedly the best place."

"As long as the cavalry is blocked, I can eat whatever I want for the cavalry."

"Actually, it is not difficult to kill this devil's cavalry, but the difficulty is how to separate the devil's cavalry from the horses."

"These horses have to live. I don't even want to let these horses under the devil's crotch be injured."

Zhao Gang said clearly: "Understood, so Lao Kong, you let the soldiers dig these circular traps on purpose, just to pose a threat to the devil's war horse, so that the little devil has to dismount and move forward."

"However, what if the devil's cavalry encountered a trap and realized that there might be an ambush, turned around and led the team to run away?" Li Yunlong asked.

Zhao Gang nodded, this is indeed an uncontrollable situation.

Kong Jie laughed and said, "It's easy to solve. The devil's cavalry is rushing to Xinzhuang. It's not in the devil's character to retreat easily. Of course, we have to further lure them here."

"After we have dug the trap hole here, I will ask the militia comrades in Xinzhuang to help. What to do is also very simple. After the devil cavalry fell into the horse pit, show up around and hold the bow and arrow in your hand. With outdated weapons such as shovels, hoes, and blunderbusses, it is enough to shoot two arrows indiscriminately, take a few shots, and then flee back to Xinzhuang in a hurry."

Li Yunlong said happily: "Okay, old Kong, I understand, you are deliberately giving the little devil a loophole, first use the trap to stop their horses, and then use the militia to lure the enemy, so that the little devil feels that the opponent It’s very weak, just a team organized spontaneously by some villagers in the village.”

"In addition, the devil lost his horse and some manpower, so he must be annoyed. If I were a devil, I would temporarily put the horse behind and lead the soldiers to Xinzhuang through the gap in the horse trap, and kill the militiamen. clean."

"In this way, the devil's war horse will be completely separated from the soldiers, and there will be no need to worry so much when ambushing with firepower."

Kong Jie smiled and said, "Old Zhao, have you seen it? My method works so well that even a cunning little devil like Li Yunlong fell for it."

"Of course, no one can guarantee that if it doesn't happen, if the devil still chooses to retreat directly after seeing the militiamen after being trapped in a horse pit, I will arrange manpower in advance to guard the west side of Luomapo and cut off the devil's attack." retreat."

"In desperation, even if we capture fewer war horses, we can only wipe out this group of devils here."

After making up his mind, Kong Jie called Mu Mu, the leader of the investigation team, and arranged: "The security range is extended by three kilometers, the communication method is 500 meters, and the flag signal is quickly transmitted. Even if the devil's cavalry arrives, At least 10 minutes of maneuvering time must be obtained for the ambush troops."

"Although the possibility is very small, we still have to guard against the devils choosing other routes."

"Yes!" Wood replied...
