Chapter 170 Thermal Power Station
After leaving the Shinichi Brigade, Gaoda went to inspect the Heian Brigade, the Artillery Regiment, and the Cavalry Regiment.
He expressed satisfaction with the training of various troops.
After a period of recruiting, all units of the independent column have reached full staffing.
As long as the weapons and equipment are in place, the independent column can be pulled out to fight the Japanese.
By then, the Japanese in northwest Shanxi will be given a big surprise. An independent column of more than 34,000 people is no joke. It is enough to change the situation in the entire northwest Shanxi region.
If the independent column is allowed to develop for another half a year, the entire northwest of Shanxi will be ruled by the independent column. However, the Japanese will not let the independent column develop peacefully.
It was already dark when Gaoda returned to the Lijiazhuang Command Center from various troops.
Today's inspection took him nearly a day, and he gained a thorough understanding of the situation of the various troops under the independent column.
Ping'an County is now a piece of iron barrel run by the Independent Column. Except for the county seat which is still in the hands of the Japanese, all the territories have been occupied by the Independent Column.
Gundam was not in a hurry to attack the county town. Anyway, the Japanese soldiers in the county town did not dare to come out easily and stayed in the county town all day long.
............
late at night.
Gundam called the monk to the headquarters.
He plans to take the special forces battalion to Heyuan County to attack the Japanese power plant tomorrow.
Ever since the special forces company wiped out Yamamoto Ikki's special forces, the monk, at the suggestion of Gundam, began to select special forces from the county brigade.
The special forces company was also promoted from a company to a special forces battalion. The entire special forces battalion has 600 people, all of whom are elite soldiers from the county brigade.
Their fighting power is extremely terrifying, and they have become the strongest trump card force in Gundam's hands, which is commanded and deployed by him personally.
The monk strode into the command center and said, "Commander, Wei Dayong from the special forces battalion has arrived to report for duty."
"Monk, you are here, please take a seat."
The monk sat upright in the chair.
"Monk, how is the training of the special forces battalion going now?"
Gundam said as he made a cup of hot tea and brought it to the monk.
The monk took the teacup with both hands and said.
"Commander, all the soldiers of the special forces battalion have been selected and in place. After two or three days of adaptation, the soldiers are now able to complete their daily training tasks."
"Yes, it seems that the soldiers of the special forces battalion train very hard and can adapt to high-intensity training so quickly."
Gaoda continued, "Monk, tomorrow morning I will lead the special forces battalion out to carry out a mission to attack the Japanese power plant in Heyuan County."
"All personnel will depart on this mission in trucks. We need to haul back all the equipment in the power plant."
"Yes, Commander."
After receiving the order, Wei Dayong returned to the barracks to arrange the task.
The soldiers of the special operations battalion were very excited when they heard that they were going out to carry out a mission.
They haven't gone out to fight the Japanese for a long time.
Early next morning.
Gaoda led 600 soldiers of the special forces battalion on a truck from Lijiazhuang to Heyuan County.
Heyuan County Thermal Power Plant is located 3 kilometers outside Heyuan County.
This is a small thermal power plant with two installed units with a capacity of about 130 kilowatts, which mainly supplies electricity to Heyuan County.
There is a coal mine next to the Heyuan Power Plant. The mined coal is transported directly to the power plant to generate electricity.
This is also the only thermal power plant in the area, while other county towns still use diesel generators for electricity.
Generally, only the Japanese barracks and living areas had electricity supply, while the rest of the people had no access to electricity.
The 30 trucks of the special forces battalion were driving quickly and arrogantly on the road, and no Japanese soldiers tried to stop them.
Now all the Japanese outposts in Ping'an County and Heyuan County have been destroyed by the independent column.
In order to preserve their manpower, the Japanese transferred all the Japanese soldiers back to the county town.
Three hours later.
The special forces battalion arrived at the Japanese thermal power plant outside Heyuan County.
A small team of Japanese soldiers was stationed in the power plant, responsible for defending the power plant.
"Monk, there is a squad of Japanese soldiers stationed in the power plant. Take your men and kill them all."
"Yes, Commander."
The monk turned around and shouted.
"First company, follow me."
The monk led a company of more than 180 soldiers towards the thermal power plant.
At this time, the Japanese soldiers in the power plant had not noticed the danger coming.
The soldiers quickly killed the Japanese soldiers at the door.
The monk opened the gate and led a company of soldiers to charge in.
The Japanese squad inside the power plant discovered the soldiers from the special forces battalion.
The Japs immediately opened fire.
“Bang, bang, bang…”
"Da da da."
The submachine guns in the hands of the special forces battalion soldiers defeated the Japanese and forced them to retreat step by step.
The Japanese squad leader quickly picked up the phone and called Heyuan County for help.
"Captain, the power plant is under attack by the enemy. We request immediate support."
After hanging up the phone, the Japanese squad leader led the remaining Japanese soldiers to organize a defense line inside the power plant building.
"Warriors of the Empire, reinforcements are about to arrive."
"Hold it to me."
The Japanese squad leader drew out his command knife and commanded his fellow Japanese soldiers to attack the company of soldiers.
The Japanese took advantage of the favorable terrain and for a time fought on equal terms with the first company.
"Battalion Commander, the Japanese occupy a favorable position in the building, and the soldiers can't rush through."
"Damn little devils, Captain, you lead a platoon of soldiers to attack from the back of the building."
The company commander shouted loudly.
"Everyone in the first row, follow me."
A company commander led a row of soldiers and launched a strong attack on the Japanese position from behind the power plant building.
For a moment, the Japanese had to send troops to support the rear. Seeing this, Wei Dayong led the soldiers to launch a strong attack from the front.
A fierce battle broke out between the two sides in the building. In the end, all 58 members of the Japanese squad were killed by the soldiers of the first company. Because the soldiers were wearing bulletproof vests, no one was injured or killed.
If the Japs had not occupied the advantageous terrain, they would have been wiped out long ago.
Every soldier in the special operations battalion is an elite soldier, and any one of them can easily kill five or six Japanese devils.
Gundam was looking at the time on his watch outside the power plant. It took the soldiers of a company less than half a quarter of an hour to kill the Japanese defensive team.
He was very satisfied with this record.
Then, Gundam ordered all trucks to enter the power plant and prepare to transport the equipment.
The other two companies of the special forces battalion were left by Gundam outside the power plant to block the Japanese invaders coming out of Heyuan County.
After the battle, Wei Dayong led the soldiers to quickly clean up the battlefield in the power plant.
