295 The Plan Has Changed
According to the accurate information sent by the Baoding Underground Party, Zhao Dahai's company took action one day in advance, which meant that Lu Yuan and the others had to camp in the wild overnight and ambush the Japanese military train from Baoding to Zhengding the next day.Lu Yuan didn't say anything about it, and he couldn't see any abnormality or impatience in Lu Yuan from his expression. Not only that, Lu Yuan also deliberately turned a blind eye to some small movements of the three-person observation group in private.

"Old Kang, what does that kid mean? I think that kid is a bit contemptuous of us." In the evening, Zhao Dahai learned about Lu Yuan's performance and performance throughout the afternoon from the members of the observation team who came over. Especially when he learned that Lu Yuan had been sleeping soundly all afternoon, Zhao Dahai suddenly felt that Lu Yuan's sound asleep in the afternoon might be intentional.Zhao Dahai's suspicion was not echoed by Cannes, on the contrary, Cannes laughed for a while.

"Old Zhao, this is because you are hypocritical. It is normal for people to look down on us. Do you still think that the battle in Xiaocaogou was the Japanese army that you repelled? Think about it carefully, how dare you stand up to hundreds of Japanese soldiers by yourself? Those who fought tough battles in the Japanese and puppet army, can they not have a little arrogance? I know what your idea is, but I want to remind you first, this young man surnamed Lu is not simple, at least he is better than you and the bosses at the headquarters think It's not that simple." Cannes's words made Zhao Dahai calm down, and after thinking about what Cannes said just now, Zhao Dahai suddenly realized that this matter seemed to be really his own wishful thinking.

"Okay, don't think about it so much, let's talk about the battle first. I think it will take ten and a half days for the German to recover from his injury. That is to say, we still have a lot of time." Can't bear to see the tangled look on the old friend's face, the thoughtful Kang Cheng immediately reminded Zhao Dahai that as long as Lu Yuan is still stranded in the area controlled by the Eighth Route Army, they still have a chance to persuade Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan, who was far away from the main position, didn't know that Zhao Dahai and Kang Cheng were thinking about how to keep themselves. After the sun finally set and the land fell into darkness, Lu Yuan lifted the turf from the trench and climbed to the ground.In order to ensure the safe operation of the railway, after encountering several small-scale attacks by the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese army in Baoding recruited a large number of local people and forced them to dig protective ditches along both sides of the railway. The railway inspected the protective ditch, and once a problem was found in the protective ditch, the Baoding Japanese army would immediately mobilize troops to search along the railway.

For this reason, the Eighth Route Army troops who rushed to Xiaozhangzhuang in advance could not attack the railway during the day, so they could only quietly climb over the protective ditch and bury the explosives under the railway embankment after nightfall.The explosives this time were provided by Lu Yuan, and he also personally promised Cannes that he would guide the Eighth Route Army to plant the bombs. Now is the time to start the operation.Lu Yuan, who had climbed out of the trench, did not pause at all. Before the three-person team behind him had crawled out, Lu Yuan had already walked down the grassy slope briskly and moved towards Zhao Dahai's main position.

Zhao Haihai's company didn't have any specific engineers, and the only ones who followed Lu Yuan to plant the explosives were the two veterans in the company who played with explosives the most times, and the other was the three-person team who was almost inseparable from Lu Yuan's side.Under the eyes of Zhao Dahai and others, Lu Yuan and his party quickly crossed the open ground without any shelter, and then put the wooden planks they brought with them on the protective ditch, and they quickly crossed the protective ditch and lay down on the ground. Under the railway embankment.

The railways of this era are very different from the railways seen in Lu Yuan’s later life. The roadbeds of railways in later generations are often much higher than the ground, but the railway roadbeds of this era are only slightly higher than the ground, and some places are even almost parallel to the ground. .When the Eighth Route Army used to bury explosives, they mostly used gunpowder fuses to detonate them. Explosives that were detonated in this way often had omissions due to moisture in the gunpowder fuses or other reasons. What Lu Yuan prepared for the Eighth Route Army this time was detonated by an electric detonator. Dynamite pack.

The place where the explosive package was placed was chosen by the Eighth Route Army itself. Lu Yuan only took the explosives from the three-member team and handed it to the opponent after the opponent selected the detonation location, and then personally taught the opponent the steps to install the electric detonator and wires.The explosives and electric detonators were provided by Lu Yuan, but the wires rented to detonate the explosives were new wires that Zhao Dahai’s company had cut from the utility poles in the Japanese-controlled area in the past. A full 100 meters of wires were enough to detonate these explosives.

After arranging the explosives and connecting the detonators and wires, Lu Yuan and the others quietly retreated under the cover of night. Zhao Dahai's Eighth Route Army soldiers rushed forward and quickly cleaned up all traces of the protective ditch. After careful inspection, the Japanese soldiers inspecting the railway absolutely did not see any suspicion.Time passed by, and Lu Yuan, who had slept all afternoon, did not feel sleepy, so he squatted in the trench and silently wiped his sniper rifle.After wiping the sniper rifle, Lu Yuan, who had nothing to do, unloaded the bullets from the magazine one by one, and carefully wiped them one by one with a coarse cloth.

As the time approached the time when the Baoding underground party would send another report, Zhao Dahai ordered his radio operator to turn on the radio. Ten minutes later, the Baoding underground party organization sent the telegram on time. "It's broken, the damn kid even added two passenger cars to the back of the train, and there are more than 100 Chinese on it." After reading the telegram translated by the operator, the face of the company commander Zhao Dahai changed drastically. Once they blow up the railway, Naturally, the train transporting weapons and ammunition by the Japanese army would overturn the roadbed, but the two passenger cars attached to the rear of the train would surely also overturn the roadbed, and there were more than 100 innocent Chinese on it.

The task of Zhao Haihai's company is to destroy the railway, and then look for an opportunity to ambush the Japanese army's munitions train, and look for opportunities to destroy the munitions transported on the train.But the trouble now is not the munitions train, but the two passenger cars temporarily added by the Japanese army to the rear of the train, which may be related to the lives of more than 100 innocent Chinese.Zhao Dahai immediately ordered the operator to send a report to the Eighth Route Army headquarters, but the information sent by the Baoding underground party organization showed that the arms train prepared by the Baoding Japanese army would depart from Baoding Station in a quarter of an hour.

"I'm afraid it's too late. For the more than 100 Chinese people on the train, I'd rather suspend the mission." Cannes's opinion made Zhao Dahai even more anxious.If the batch of munitions transported by the Japanese army in Baoding arrives in Zhengding, they will be immediately equipped to the Japanese and puppet troops in the direction of SJZ. At that time, more anti-Japanese forces will be massacred and pursued by the Japanese and puppet troops. This will undoubtedly affect the situation of the domestic war of resistance. It's even worse.

"Maybe I can give it a try. Since you have no other better way, why don't you let me have a try." Lu Yuan who came after hearing the news saw Zhao Dahai and Kang Cheng just in time for them to wait anxiously When the headquarters telegraphed. "Since the passenger car is temporarily attached to the rear of the train, why can't we blow up the railway to force the train to stop early before the train reaches the bombing point. The Japanese escort on the train is just a Japanese army squad, and I will deal with them. That's it, the passenger compartment at the rear of the car will be handed over to you to control."

Lu Yuan cherishes his own life, so he will not propose a plan to pick up the train in advance, but proposes to blow up the railway in advance to force the train to stop.When Zhao Dahai and Kang Cheng were full of doubts, Lu Yuan used the light from the oil lamp to draw a simple map on the ground with a short knife, and patiently explained it to Zhao Dahai and Kang Cheng. "This is the railway embankment, this is our current ambush position, and this is the bombing point where explosives were planted."

"The train will depart from Baoding immediately. If we detonate the explosives and blow up the railway when the train is about to arrive here, the train will definitely be forced to stop on the railway. There are no more than two kinds of Japanese soldiers on the train. Choose, one is to seek help from the Baoding Japanese army immediately, and the other is to get off the train to find the cause or conduct a search. And I will cross the railway embankment to the other side before the explosives detonate, so that you and I will form a relationship with this train With the situation of pincer attack, no matter which direction the Japanese soldiers on the train get off from, they will be within the range of our firepower.”

"But if the Japanese army on the train chooses to hold on and not wait for rescue, then I will immediately take on the task of blocking the enemy army in Baoding. I have proved my strength to you in the battle a few days ago. This time, I will also be like It was the same as that day, blocking the attack of the Japanese army in Baoding. I forgot to tell you, the gun in my box has a maximum range of more than 200 meters, and I also brought armor-piercing bullets this time. Even if the Japanese army in Baoding uses armored patrol vehicles, I can destroy them too."

Lu Yuan's words shocked Zhao Dahai and Kang Cheng completely, especially the last words of Lu Yuan made Zhao Dahai ecstatic.After receiving the mission to ambush the Japanese train, Zhao Dahai was most worried about the Japanese armored patrol vehicles, because apart from using explosives for close-up attacks, the weapons equipped by the Eighth Route Army could hardly pose a threat to the turtle shell.Well now, Lu Yuan brought super powerful weapons and armor-piercing bullets this time, so he doesn't have to worry about meeting the dealer's favorite car from the Japanese army.

The sky was already pale, and it was less than half an hour before the sky became bright. Lu Yuan, who returned to the mound, led a three-person team to quickly cross the protective ditch with the help of soldiers from the Eighth Route Army. When they set off, Lu Yuan and the others finally found a fairly suitable position on the opposite side of the railway embankment. Checking the time, the remaining time was enough for them to dig their position.

"If there is a real fight, you'd better stay here without my consent. Once there is a fight, it will be difficult for me to take care of you, and my tactical style may not be suitable for you." Lu Yuan explained to the three-person team With a sound, he opened the box, assembled the heavy sniper rifle, and carefully observed the surrounding terrain with the scope.
