"Hello, hello, hello! What is your position?"
"I'm the quartermaster."
"Nice to meet you!"
Liu Datou and Lao Abacus met late, and the first meeting was like meeting a long-lost brother.
After chatting for a while, Liu Datou asked: "Brother, what does within five steps mean?"
Old Abacus said proudly: "You are safe within these five steps. Just follow the regiment and be there at your call. Unless there is a war, the regiment will rush up and we will watch the battle from behind. When the battle is over, follow the regiment." Just pick up the equipment from behind."
"Damn it, I didn't expect to get such a good job when I first came here?"
The snot bubbles on Liu Da's beautiful head were about to pop out. There is no need to fight, just follow the leader's ass, wait for others to finish the battle, and then he can run out and pick up the equipment. But the most important thing is that from the local security group to the elite of the Central Army, the future is unlimited.
"Brothers, follow the special commissioner and do your best. Listen to the third battalion commander. Hahaha!"
Liu Datou laughed heartily and risked his brothers anyway.
But among these people, Liu Datou was the only one who followed him, and he was the younger brother who used to hang out with Liu Datou. It's not like they have never done it before, licking blood from the edge of a knife, and they have a bit more of a charlatanism.
People like Liu Datou are similar to Sun Boan. It's just that Sun Bo'an was brave and foolhardy, and Liu Da's head was turned upside down. He is brave in a certain way.
However, if this big head Liu was really at a critical moment of life and death, he would dare to fight for his life. After all, they are all gangsters, and if they are on this road of no return, if they are afraid of death, then don't leave.
Therefore, although these younger brothers of Liu Datou are not very capable, Liu Datou is sure of what they say. They put on their military uniforms, picked up the newly issued Japanese weapons, and followed Zhao Beishan.
This Zhao Beishan was previously the company commander of the Eighty-seventh Division's special agent company. He has good skills in leading troops. He also came from the Baoding Military Academy. But because his family had no connections, he has been in the army for six years and is still only a lieutenant company commander. .
After following the Dragon Boat Festival, Zhao Beishan was promoted to major and battalion commander, and Zhao Beishan was very satisfied. Duanwu also admired Zhao Beishan's military temperament.
As for Liu Datou's younger brothers, they admire people like Zhao Beishan even more. In their eyes, Zhao Beishan is like their elder brother.
This may be the power of faith. Whether you admit it or not, the words "Central Army" back then were just like the Forbidden Army and the Imperial Guard during the Ming Dynasty.
So when these guys heard that they could join the Central Army, none of them were as excited as Liu Datou.
Of course, these are all strategies for the Dragon Boat Festival, and the troops are used wisely.
He sent Zhao Beishan to lead the fourth battalion, but did not ask Sun Shiyu or Zhu Shengzhong.
Why not these two people? Sun Shiyu is a capable Sichuan soldier. But to put it bluntly, Sun Shiyu was also a wild boy, he never went to a military academy, and he came from Sichuan.
Of course, this is not to look down on Sichuan people. Sichuan was very closed back then. The cultural level is basically not high. Sun Shiyu had never been to a military academy, nor had he been in the Central Army. He had little experience and was unable to suppress others.
This is like a child who grew up in the countryside coming to the city for the first time. Can it shock the children in the city? It would be nice if you weren't bullied.
So Sun Shiyu couldn't take these people with him.
Let's talk about Zhu Shengzhong, Zhu Shengzhong is the Central Army, and he was also the company commander before. But his company commander is different from Zhao Beishan.
Zhao Beishan is a member of the special agent company. To put it bluntly, he is independent within the group. One person can hold up the sky.
But Zhu Shengzhong was different. He kept the establishment of the camp. When the superiors give orders, he just executes them without thinking about strategy or tactics. But the most important thing is that Zhu Shengzhong is too impulsive. And when facing a group of security guards who have no formal training at all, he may not have the patience.
This will lead to a result that Dragon Boat Festival least wants to see, which is to affect Dragon Boat Festival's plan.
And this plan may have started when Liu Datou and others were preparing to go up the mountain.
After Duanwu repelled the 53rd Wing and defeated the Japanese Air Force, he thought that the Japanese army would retaliate wildly after being frustrated many times. And if a regular war was fought, Jiangyin's current military strength would not hold an advantage.
Fortunately, there is a 156th Division to the south of the 112th Division, otherwise Jiangyin's retreat would be directly cut off by the Japanese.
The 156th Division is also one of the most capable troops. The teacher's name is Li Jiang, he is brave and resourceful.
After the defeat in the Nanjing Defense Battle, everyone else was crowding the city gate, but he was the only one who walked past the city wall without conflict with the 36th Division.
So this is a smart guy.
With him here, Duanwu doesn't have to worry about his retreat being cut off.
But how to kill the enemy? As soon as it dawns tomorrow, the Japanese army will inevitably retaliate crazily. By then, the entire Jiangyin Fortress will probably become a battlefield. This will be a war of attrition. Consume a lot of shells and consume a lot of life.
The last thing the Dragon Boat Festival wants to see is such a war of attrition. However, due to the lack of troops in Jiangyin Fortress and Commander Huo being very cautious, he was unable to use many tactics. For example, Dragon Boat Festival wanted to mobilize all the troops of the 112th Division to wipe out the 53rd Regiment, but Commander Huo vetoed it.
Of course, Duanwu could choose to force Commander Huo to carry out this order. But he was also afraid that the Japanese 116th Regiment would take the opportunity to sneak attack Jiangyin Fortress. Because he had received another reliable intelligence before: the Japanese 116th Regiment was rapidly maneuvering towards the Jiangyin Fortress.
In fact, the 116th Regiment came after Zhou Weiguo. With Zhou Weiguo running in front, can the vanguard of the 116th Wing not hurry up?
So this plan was canceled by Dragon Boat Festival. He only severely damaged the Japanese 53rd Regiment and laid a hidden danger for himself. Even Kitano Sanjuroro is still alive.
This Sanjuro Kitano is known as a lunatic among Japanese military officers. He is cruel, cunning, and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
It's a pity that Danwu knew it too late, otherwise he would have made a desperate effort to kill Kitanoyama Jukuro.
However, the enemy's tactics provided an opportunity for Dragon Boat Festival. And this opportunity came when Kitano Sanjuroro sent his pig teammate Liu Big Head.
The Japanese thought they had grasped seven inches of Big Liu's head, but little did they know that Big Liu's head was not as stupid as they thought. Not only did he betray Akai, but he also sold Kitano Sanjuro.
Kitano Sanjuro's plan was known to Danwu at this time, and the next step was to kill people.
It’s just that in the final analysis, there are still insufficient troops. Otherwise, if the newly recruited security regiment doesn’t even understand it, how can we safely put them all on the battlefield?
But there are still few people. The three battalions on the 671st regiment's position add up to more than 1,200 people. Even if Zhao Beishan and Liu Datou's third and fourth battalions were present, there were only more than a hundred people.
Sun Shiyu's first battalion, Zhu Shengzhong's second battalion, and Lao Snoring's special agent company totaled about 150 people. With these troops, it would be difficult for them to defeat even one Japanese brigade, let alone annihilate the entire 116th Regiment.
It would be nice if the 156th Division could cooperate, but according to what Commander Huo said: the 156th Division’s defense area is not small, and Li Jiang is cautious, he probably won’t take this risk unless Secretary-General Yang personally this command.
But it was around three o'clock in the morning, and he was in a dilemma whether he could find Secretary-General Yang or not. And once it gets bright, it will be difficult to complete the Dragon Boat Festival plan. So he had no choice but to fight a small-scale war of annihilation.
"Go and tell your division commander to dispatch at least one battalion from the 667th Regiment and the 668th Regiment. Let the 672nd Regiment be vigilant. Once the 671st Regiment's position is attacked, the Japanese 53rd Regiment will definitely take the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the 672nd Regiment. Ask Wan Yi to be careful of the Japanese artillery, and don’t let all the soldiers from each company and platoon gather together. Go ahead!"
After the Dragon Boat Festival order, the communications soldiers of the 671st Regiment rushed to find Commander Huo to convey the Dragon Boat Festival order to Commander Huo. Master Huo was angry. The weapons and equipment he had just obtained made Duan Wu take back another hundred sets.
What did he think when he heard this? Want to deploy two battalions? Want to use the fastest speed? Are you kidding me? What if the Japanese cross the river? The water area on the north side is not small. Two battalions were mobilized at once. Once the Japanese attacked from the waterway, the consequences would be disastrous.
But this time, Duanwu gave a death order. In addition, the previous Dragon Boat Festival tactics were not wrong, so he decided to support them. And I happened to see the soldiers of the Independent Regiment checking their weapons and ammunition.
Master Huo asked: "Brother, what are you doing?"
A Sichuan Army platoon leader of the first battalion said: "There is going to be a war, and everyone must listen to the command of the regiment. It is no joke to rectify the law on the spot without obeying orders. On Yushan Mountain, a company of the 174th Division disobeyed orders and even It’s not the same death. Mr. Huo, let’s go!”
As he said that, the Sichuan Army brother had already led his people away, and everyone moved smoothly, not daring to slack off at all.
Commander Huo nodded and ordered: "Notify the 667th Regiment immediately. The 668th Regiment will deploy a battalion of troops to quickly reinforce the 671st Regiment's position without any mistakes. In addition, my guard company will also be mobilized and the officers from the division headquarters will be sent to me. Form an officer platoon.”
"Master, are you going to fight in person? This is too dangerous."
Master Huo's guard said worriedly.
"Grandma, what should I do if I don't go into battle? You can't take back the weapons and equipment you sent out? When the time comes, kill the Japanese, don't let me come back empty-handed, go and deliver the order!"
Commander Huo gave a loud order, and the entire Jiangyin Fortress began to move in the darkness.
The leaders of the 667th and 668th regiments had no idea what was going on and thought it was a massive Japanese attack.
But they guessed correctly, indeed this was a large-scale attack. Kitano Sanjuro worked hard to quickly capture the Jiangyin Fortress. He first obtained the command of the 116th Regiment and the 58th Regiment through his teacher.
Although the 58th Regiment has not arrived yet, Kitano Sanjuroro feels that the 53rd Regiment and the 116th Regiment are enough. The 53rd Regiment plus the 116th Regiment have a total strength of nearly 7,000 people. As for how many people there are in the entire Jiangyin Fortress, I am afraid that the total strength will not be more than 5,000.
In addition, the artillery wings of the 53rd Regiment and the 116th Regiment are already in place, so Kitano Sanjuroro believes that they have a good chance of winning today's battle. He was counting on Liu Datou and Akai to fire the first shot on the 671st regiment's position.
It's just that more than an hour has passed by waiting. Although the sky has not yet dawned, it will probably dawn in half an hour, and by then, the meaning of the surprise attack will be lost.
Kitano Sanjuro was a little worried and said to Zhongye Village: "Zhongye-kun, is that big head Liu reliable?"
Zhongye Village thought for a while and said: "At least when I was under my rule, he didn't make any mistakes. Just that one time he let rats enter the imperial army's granary and I kicked him, and there was nothing else. "
Kitano Sanjuro frowned and said, "If this bastard can't complete his mission, see how I skin him alive."
Zhongye Murura said: "Kitano-kun, don't worry too much, Akai is a very capable imperial soldier under me. With him, everything can be saved."
"Okay, then we'll wait a little longer."
Kitano Sanjuro said helplessly, but at this moment, a red flare suddenly flew up from the northwest of the 53rd Wing.
The flare exploded in mid-air like a bright firework.
Kitano Sanjuro suddenly stood up when he saw the exploding flare. Because this is his signal to success.
Chuchuchu! ...
Da da da! Bang bang! Bang, bang,...
boom! boom! ...
···············
At the same time, the sound of machine guns, rifles, pistols, and explosions of grenades also followed.
The straight-line distance between the two was nearly three kilometers, and the news reached the camp of the Japanese 53rd Regiment.
With a joyful smile on his face, Sanjuro Kitano ordered: "Let the Imperial Army of the 116th Regiment attack quickly and assist the security regiment in capturing the 671st Regiment's position. Order the 3rd Infantry Brigade and Artillery Regiment in Hanoi to attack the 672nd Regiment's position." Launch a fierce attack to contain the 672nd Regiment and prevent them from sending any reinforcements to the 671st Regiment's position. Hahaha, one hour, no, I only need half an hour to make the entire Jiangyin Fortress collapse from within, haha Ha ha!"
Kitano Sanjuro laughed loudly, but MCC Village was not happy at all at this time. Because this was his plan originally. He now only hopes that Kitano Sanjuro is not an ungrateful person and has forgotten his promise.
But at this time, Kitano Sanjuroro had already forgotten the back of his mind. Because it was all under his wise command that such results were achieved.
But little did he know that all of this was a trap set by Dragon Boat Festival, and he made a fatal mistake.
The Japs of the 116th Regiment of the Japanese Army are not very familiar with Liu Datou's security group. They will not be suspicious of any Northeastern soldier who wears the clothes of the security group. What's more, the person who pretended to be a security team to report the news at this time was reporter Fang.
Reporter Fang not only spoke Japanese, but was also taught by the Dragon Boat Festival to be good at acting. He ran down the mountain and deceived the Japanese soldiers from the first brigade of the 116th Regiment, saying that he was an imperial soldier from the 53rd Regiment and was ordered to pick them up the mountain.
The Japs in the First Brigade were undoubtedly deceitful. Because these are Kitano Sanjuro's orders. Moreover, the fighting seemed to be fierce on the 671st Regiment's position. So they rushed forward without thinking too much.
And sure enough, the road up the mountain had been opened, and they encountered no obstacles at all when charging.
And when they arrived at the fortifications of the 671st Regiment, they discovered that the security regiment was having a fierce exchange of fire with an enemy company. The enemy's reinforcements are coming from the other side of the position, that is, the north side.
Seeing this, reporter Fang urged loudly in Japanese: "This way, this way, block the enemies here. The security team's combat effectiveness is not good. They can only deal with small groups of enemies."
At this time, there were gunshots everywhere, and it was dark. The little devil didn't know what was going on, as long as someone ordered him to listen. They were tricked into a long and deep trench.
But the little devil didn't think there was anything strange. Instead, he thought it would be very safe.
Uehara, the captain of the first brigade of the Japanese 116th Regiment, ordered his Japs to occupy three trenches and shoot at the soldiers of the 671st Regiment from the north and south.
After a round of shooting, the opponent was beaten so hard that he couldn't even lift his head. The Uehara Japanese laughed loudly and said: The Chinese people are just like this.
Just at this moment, Duan Wu poked his head out from among the soldiers of the Independent Regiment who were disguised as security guards, and then gently pressed the detonator.
Boom!
A series of explosions came, and at least half of the little devils went up to the sky. It turned out that Duanwu had planted explosives in the trenches in advance.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, all the explosives of the 671st Regiment were buried in the trenches, and all the members were acting. In addition to the main role of reporter Fang, the Dragon Boat Festival's independent group plays the role of the security group, and Liu Datou's men led by Zhao Beishan play the role of the Northeastern Army fighting with them.
Naturally, a battalion of the 671st Regiment also played the role of the Northeast Army. But what these Northeastern troops want to play is the Northeastern troops who wake up from their sleep and run out of bunkers everywhere. Their appearance made Uehara and his Japanese soldiers unable to think too much. They hurriedly entered the position, only to be blown away and knocked upside down.
But there were too few explosives, and only half of a group of Japanese soldiers were killed. Most of the remaining Japanese soldiers were injured, but not fatally.
They still had fighting strength and wanted to resist, but at this time, the other two battalions of the 671st Regiment had already killed them from behind the Japanese.
The leader of the team was Wang Zan, who started a hand-to-hand battle with the Japanese after a random shooting.
The two sides were fighting fiercely. Although the little Jaap was very skilled in stabbing, fortunately the Japs had not fully woken up from the explosion they encountered before. In addition, half of them were killed by Wang Zan and his men, so the number of people was again occupied. With the absolute advantage, and the first battalion of the 671st Regiment also joining the battle group, it is only a matter of time before the Japanese 116th Regiment's 1st Infantry Battalion is annihilated.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the Second Infantry Brigade of the Japanese 116th Regiment had already begun to climb the mountain. They were rushing in with all their strength to support the First Brigade of the 116th Regiment, and behind the Second Infantry Brigade was the Third Infantry Brigade. Grandma has quite a few people, a total of 2,230 people.
And at the same time, the artillery of the 116th Infantry Regiment also moved, and they were aiming at the Eshan Fort! ...
