Dragon Boat Festival doesn't want to see a Donald Duck-style fiasco.
But as a junior officer, what can he do?
Perhaps it would be a good choice to continue to be promoted and increase the military rank. But Duanwu calculated that this was almost impossible.
He was promoted from an unknown top soldier in the security regiment to the commander of the independent regiment of the 88th Division. This was an exceptional promotion. If we go up further, we have to ask those veteran warlords if they agree.
Yes, in Duanwu's eyes, those high-ranking officials are basically old warlords. After being severely beaten by the National Revolutionary Army, he suddenly woke up and joined the revolutionary family.
But at their core, warlords are warlords. The Chairman even sometimes cannot control them.
Therefore, there is little hope for Duanwu to continue to be promoted. Even though he was the captain of the colonel, Sun Yuanliang made an exception and promoted him because he believed that he would most likely die in Sihang Warehouse.
So it goes without saying that this is a dead end. Including the chairman of the committee, I'm afraid everyone has their own Xiao Jiujiu.
Dragon Boat Festival did not gamble on this chance. In contrast, Dragon Boat Festival wanted to consume the Japanese troops.
There are only so many Japs, if you kill one, you will lose one. Kill until the Japanese are gone, and China will win this war.
And today, the Dragon Boat Festival still made this plan.
At nine o'clock in the morning on November 10th, five Japanese warships will use the cover of fog to conduct reconnaissance and fire at the Huangshan Fort in order to understand the firepower distribution of the Huangshan Fort.
After the investigation was frustrated, the Japanese would retaliate against the Huangshan Fort. Reconnaissance planes were first dispatched for reconnaissance, and then in the afternoon, several fighter jets and bombers carried out retaliatory bombings on the Huangshan Fort.
Little did the little devils know that most of the fortress positions were built in caves. Even if they flew fighter planes to bomb and strafe the fortress, it would not be effective. On the contrary, the imported German anti-aircraft guns exerted their firepower advantage and shot down three Japanese planes.
A Japanese second lieutenant pilot parachuted to escape.
This is the Japanese who is waiting for the Dragon Boat Festival.
The Japanese still attach great importance to their pilots. And especially good pilots.
As a second lieutenant pilot, captain level, the Japanese will not give up easily. And the Dragon Boat Festival is to use this Japanese pilot to fish.
Dragon Boat Festival ordered Zhou Da Bang and his men to drive the Japanese pilots into the forest.
This was a delicate job, to scare away the Japs but not to let the Japs notice that he had been discovered.
Moreover, the Japanese pilot must see that there are very few people chasing him and he has a chance to escape, otherwise other Japanese soldiers will not take the risk to save him.
Duanwu guessed that in order to save the pilot, the little devil would dispatch at least a small team of troops.
The weapons and equipment of this small team of Japanese soldiers are the reason why Duanwu has been squatting here.
The independent regiment of Dragon Boat Festival was very short of ammunition, although Wan Yi tightened his belt and got some 9mm pistol bullets for Dragon Boat Festival. Dragon Boat Festival borrowed ten more boxes of grenades.
But this is not enough at all. There are still more than 330 people in the independent group. Only about sixty of them were armed with MP28 submachine guns, and forty were equipped with German-made shell guns.
As for the American m1911 military pistols, most of them have become decorations. When they ran out of bullets and had no supplies, they were all in pieces.
Most of the remaining soldiers were holding Japanese-style weapons. Light machine guns, Type 38 rifles, etc.
Although six grenade tubes remained, they lacked shells.
Rifle bullets and machine gun bullets are also in short supply. Some soldiers even had two bullets left in their guns.
Therefore, if Duanwu wants to continue fighting, weapons and equipment must be replenished, especially Japanese ammunition.
Time passed by, and the Japanese finally appeared on the river.
The Japanese were afraid of being discovered, so they did not take a large ship. Instead, they found a bamboo raft from somewhere and rowed it slowly from the other side of the river.
Half an hour later, ten Japanese soldiers came ashore first and formed a defensive formation on the bank to cover the Japanese soldiers behind them.
Xie Jinyuan looked through the telescope and said with admiration: "You guessed it right, Tuan Zuo, there are a total of sixty Japs. They are a small team of Japs, led by a second lieutenant officer."
"Sixty Japs can only replenish some of our ammunition, but it's not enough."
Duanwu shook his head and said, feeling like a clever woman can't make a meal without rice. If this were placed in modern times, how could soldiers on the battlefield worry about insufficient ammunition?
But this is a true portrayal of soldiers in that era. They did not have enough weapons and ammunition to deal with the devils. Many people even took risks on the battlefield to pick up Japanese weapons and equipment, but were killed by the enemy in front of the battle.
At this time, Duanwu also felt the helplessness of lack of ammunition.
"Tuanzu, let's fight? Sixty Japanese are not enough for us to fill our teeth."
Zhu Shengzhong volunteered to fight for the first time.
Duanwu scolded: "Get out of here, you know, they just landed, they are always ready to escape. These devils are slipping."
Send someone to ask Zhou Dabang to make some noise for me, so that the Japanese pilots can continue to call for help.
And you take the independent battalion to ambush the enemy where they must pass. You kid, remember this, if you let a Japanese go, I will use you as a gunman. "
"It's a group seat, hehe!"
Zhu Shengzhong was scolded, but he was quite happy. He took the people from the independent camp and ran away.
There are still more than 100 people in the Independence Camp. Why don't you deal with dozens of Japanese soldiers with a pinch of salt?
Duanwu continued to stare at the Japs. When he saw more than forty Japs starting to take action, Duanwu called Sun Shiyu over and said, "Take the new battalion and go around from behind the Japs. Once the independent battalion gets into trouble with the Japs, Hit the Japanese from behind so that they cannot take care of both the front and rear."
Sun Shiyu said: "Tuanzuo, are you too careful? With the strength of the independent battalion and three times the advantage over the enemy, more than forty Japanese soldiers can definitely end the battle within five minutes."
Duan Wu hugged Sun Shiyu's neck, pushed Sun Shiyu's body down and said: "Concentrate superior forces and destroy the enemy as quickly as possible. Don't take any chances. Otherwise we will pay an extremely painful price."
"I understand, Danzai."
Sun Shiyu nodded, Duanwu let go, and Sun Shiyu led the people away to take the little devil's escape route.
At this time, there were still a dozen Japs left on the river beach, probably a small team. They were guarding the bamboo raft to search for the troops and guard their retreat.
There is no bunker on the river beach, so it is very difficult to get close. The nearest bunker to the Japanese was about 150 meters away.
Duanwu shouted: "Lao Xie, bring a few good marksmen with me. There are sixteen Japanese in total. We must end the battle within thirty seconds."
Xie Jinyuan was surprised and asked: "Tuanzu, why do you have to end the battle within thirty seconds?..."
