"Master's things are so easy to get? I want you to spit it out twice as much. Brothers, hit me!"
At dawn on March 20, 1942, a Japanese brigade once again forcibly crossed the Pew River and launched a forceful attack on the 200th Division position!
On the position, light and heavy firepower were fired at the same time, and bullets were sprayed desperately towards the Japanese army.
Mortar shells roared down one after another.
"Brothers, fight me!"
Ding Wenrui was in high spirits: "Don't save your damn bullets. We have used up all the bullets and thrown away all the grenades. How can we, Meng Tuanfu, continue to cheat!"
"Well said, it's just me, huh?"
Meng Shaoyuan opened his eyes fiercely: "Damn it, Ding Wenrui, are you praising me or scolding me?"
"The staff respects you."
Ding Wenrui was in high spirits.
To say the least, our Meng Tuan still has the ability.
I went to the regiment headquarters for a walk and brought back so many supplies at once!
Since the Japanese army entered Myanmar, they have been unstoppable and unstoppable.
But in Tonggu, they encountered such fierce firepower and such tenacious resistance for the first time!
The Japanese infantry brigade attacked twice in a row, but suffered disastrous defeats due to the stubborn resistance of the advance battalion and the close cooperation of the cavalry regiment.
They abandoned more than two hundred corpses and evacuated in a hurry. Some ran directly into the nearby forest to avoid the fierce attack from the Chinese army!
On the cavalry regiment's position, slogans of "Revenge for Captain Huang" resounded everywhere!
The blood is still not dry, now is the time to repay the blood of the hero!
The position is as stable as Mount Tai.
However, by the afternoon of the 20th, the situation took a turn for the worse.
All more than 20,000 Japanese troops from the 55th Division arrived in Donggu.
The defensive pressure of the 200th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force suddenly increased.
"Regiment Meng is attached, call the regiment headquarters!"
"read!"
"The advance battalion has made outstanding achievements in defense so far. However, the main force of the Japanese army has arrived. In order to prevent the enemy from cutting off the retreat and forming an encirclement, the advance battalion blew up the existing fortifications and moved to the second line position!"
"Yes! Execute the order!"
"Meng Tuanfu, there are more."
"Read it."
"Really? Why don't you see it yourself?"
"Nonsense, Nian, I have nothing shameful to do, sir!"
"Meng Shaoyuan, you shameless bitch, you cheated me of my supplies. If you don't give me a good beating, I'll beat your bitch's head to pieces!"
Officers such as Ding Wenrui and Li Zhifeng were holding back their laughter but did not dare to laugh out loud.
Meng Shaoyuan was so embarrassed: "Xiao Yao, what are you talking about?"
"Sir, you asked me to read this." Yao Shuang looked aggrieved.
…
The arrival of the Japanese 55th Division caused a sudden change in Tongguzhi's defense situation.
On the frontal defense line of Tonggu, facing the strong troops and artillery of the 200th Division, the commander of the Japanese 55th Division, Hiroshi Takeuchi, adjusted his tactics and shifted the focus of the attack to Ekechun in the south of Tonggu.
Under the cover of aircraft, artillery, and tanks, the Japanese army organized a fierce attack.
The 598th Regiment of the 200th Division, led by regiment commander Zheng Tingji, fought bloody battles and repelled Japanese attacks many times.
The battle history of the Japanese 55th Division:
"This is the first time we have encountered a strong enemy at Wudun since Daiku marched north. The attack was frustrated due to underestimation of the enemy, and false alarms of capturing the enemy positions continued to come from the front line, leaving the command in confusion and a bitter battle."
At this time, since the expedition of the expeditionary force, the first advance battalion to arrive in Tonggu became a reserve team.
The soldiers in the advance battalion who were eager to kill the enemy and achieve meritorious service all complained.
Even those members of Meng Shao's original guard who had just become addicted but were not satisfied at all were muttering: "Sir, what are your skills? Can't we live here?"
"What can I do? What can I do?" Meng Shaoyuan shouted: "Damn it, if you have the ability, go find the teacher!"
"Divisional headquarters phone number!"
At this moment, a voice interrupted the argument.
Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly answered the phone, and Dai Anlan's voice came from the other end: "Our left-wing position was breached by the Japanese army. We order the advance battalion and the 1st Battalion of the 600th Regiment to recapture the position before dark!"
"yes!"
As soon as he hung up the phone, Meng Shaoyuan immediately raised his voice: "Ding Wenrui, gather the brothers, organize a death squad, fight with the little devils for your life, and regain the position before dark!"
…
On the afternoon of the 20th, under repeated crazy attacks by the Japanese army, the Tonggu left wing position was breached.
The 599th regiment was attached to Meng Shaoyuan, and the 600th regiment was attached to Zhao Libin. They were ordered to each lead a battalion and launch an attack at the same time. They must restore their positions before dark!
Meng Shaoyuan, who followed the team and quickly moved to the left, took a look: "Ding Wenrui, where are the death squads?"
"Sir, there is no need to use death squads now." Ding Wenrui said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "We are not on a domestic battlefield now. We are a mechanized division with sufficient firepower and tanks and mortars to assist. It is not worth risking human lives so early. .”
Uh, this.
The weather is very good today.
In terms of military command, I am still an amateur after all.
Yes, it is no longer on the domestic battlefield. China's most elite troops have been drawn to Myanmar.
On the domestic battlefield, once orders are received to regain positions, death squads will be formed as soon as possible.
what to do?
We have no tank support and no powerful artillery fire suppression. What else can we do except risk the lives of our brothers?
But it was different on the Tonggu battlefield.
The 200th Division is such a good unit.
No, leaving one more is just one.
At this moment, Meng Shaoyuan was even more determined in his thoughts!
In order to regain the position as soon as possible, Dai Anlan not only mobilized two reserve battalions at once, but also dispatched an armored vehicle to assist in the battle!
When they arrived at the left wing position and reunited, Meng Shaoyuan and Zhao Libin immediately formulated a battle plan.
First suppressed by artillery fire, then, under the cover of armored vehicles, the two battalions launched an attack at the same time!
Meng Shaoyuan and his guards witnessed a scene that was extremely rare on the domestic battlefield.
As soon as the officer's whistle blew, the two battalions took out their belongings and fired mortar shells crazily at the Japanese army.
After a round of artillery fire, six buglers stood up at the same time, and the loud bugles resounded through the sky!
Armored vehicles appeared first.
Then, countless soldiers of the expeditionary force burst out with earth-shaking shouts and rushed towards the position like a tide!
The Japanese soldiers, stunned by the shells, organized a resistance in a hurry.
However, the gray tide has been sweeping in uncontrollably!
With just one charge, the Japanese army was forced to abandon the position they had worked so hard to gain.
The battle was fought so easily that Meng Shaoyuan thought he was still in a dream.
When it comes to grabbing credit, he, Master Meng, says he is second, and no one dares to say he is first.
The leather boots that were barely stained with dust stepped on the battlefield, and Master Meng stood proudly:
"Send power to the division commander. Our advance battalion has retaken the position!"
Li Zhifeng said in a daze: "It would be great if we could have more 200 divisions on the domestic battlefield!"
Master Meng's proud look disappeared instantly.
Yes, that's right, the troops must be retained!
