37. The rabbit of Bahrain beacon fire is sad for the dead fox
After research, it was decided that Miao Ziping, deputy of the regiment, would stay in Bayanling and command the Sixth Battalion and other units to contain and eliminate the Yunzhong squadron.
Li Shusen, Xie Zhanfang and other commanders, commanding most of the 233rd Regiment, quietly advanced to the Japanese Okaokamu Brigade stationed in front of the Yisu Maodu Plateau in the middle of the Bahrain grassland. They had to move forward in this way, because at the beginning, they were counting on Okokagi to rush to the aid of Yunzhong, and they were intercepted halfway, and Okokaki, the old fox, did not want to give in; A special battalion was sent to harass Okokaki's advance guard squadron, but they only returned fire with heavy firepower and did not pursue them in depth.
It turned out that Okokaki knew that the Yunzhong squadron was finished, and the Japanese army was not good at night fighting, and at the same time, he had received a night attack on the 34th Wing of the 36th Brigade in the southeast of the eastern part of the Bahrain grassland, in the area of Baoyin Ulagai, and led it to send out to chase ...... Notification ...... So he didn't let the squadron that asked for battle to enter.
Commander Li Shusen and the others were a little anxious, no matter how the defenders attacked, the devils would not chase them, and this battle would not be easy to fight...... They attacked for a long time, although they advanced slowly, but the devil's firepower was too fierce, and each squadron was equipped with machine gun squads and grenadier squads, which caused great casualties to the 233rd Regiment.
This is not a table, let's first take a look at the situation of the ninth and tenth battalions of the 234th Regiment.
At that time, Regiment Commander Yang Ganmiao led the 9th and 10th Battalions of the 234th Regiment to attack the 34th Wing of the Devil three times, crippling and destroying most of its three squadrons, and also blowing up the automobile team of a baggage team. There may be more than that, almost all of the officials who attended the meeting in the yurt at that time were killed, and looking at the corpses covered in the white cloth, you can know that there are a lot of people......
Commander Yang saw from this incident that the quality of the devils of the 34th Wing was too high, so he was stunned, and if it was the Chinese defenders, it might have collapsed long ago.
They were still unsatisfied, and when they returned the carbines, they were blown up by the devils with 92 infantry guns and grenadiers and lost hundreds of people, but fortunately, Company Commander Lu and they blew up the devils' military horses, otherwise Commander Yang and they might not be able to run.
Regiment Commander Yang and Deputy Chief of Staff Zhang Lianbei led the soldiers to spread their legs and run, and where the shells fell, they scattered from there, and ran away from the shells! came to the big tree garden, and Company Commander Lu and the others caught up with the troops. As soon as the number of people in each unit was counted, there were more than 1,500 people when they came, and less than 1,100 people went back.
Commander Yang's tightened heart remembered one more thing, he planned to transport a dead horse back, so that he could eat horse meat, but he had been busy running away from the cannonballs, and he forgot about it. He also complained bitterly and wanted Lu Shilang to take a few soldiers back to move back, but he saw that the soldiers of the reconnaissance company were carrying something on their backs.
It turned out to be horse meat. The ninth and tenth battalions ran in a hurry, but they didn't walk there, and Lu Shilang saw a soldier who was tripped by the corpses of devils and horses one after another, and said in his heart that they were all caught by the devil's cannon, so he remembered the words of the regiment commander. So he called out to the soldiers, picked a few fat horses, and the people waved their knives and cut some horse meat......
Commander Yang glanced at Company Commander Lu appreciatively and said Let's go quickly, it seems that snowflakes have fallen on this day. As he spoke, the snow particles fell from the brush, and half of the officers and soldiers were wearing the yellow skin of the Japanese army, but they were all frozen and wrapped tightly, and their teeth and bones were fighting. Head Yang said while holding his hands: "Hey, this ghost weather, it's snowing again, I don't know how far this place is from Baiyin Zhuoer?" ”
At this time, Ulaligi appeared from a company behind, and it turned out that he had not returned, but had run behind the troops. His Mongolian robe and felt hat were covered with snow, and he still smiled solemnly at Commander Yang. In the dark, I could also feel that he also wanted to salute Commander Yang, but he was embarrassed, because since he was brought into this new unit by the leader, the subordinates were saluting their superiors, and the soldiers were saluting the commander......
Regiment Commander Yang had already gained insight into his thoughts, and said in his heart that this person learned things quickly, and if he was absorbed into the troops, he might soon be trained to become a commander. He looked at Uraliji, who was also constantly chatting, and asked, "How far is it from Baiyinnaoer here?" ”
While patting the snow particles on his robe, Ulaliji said in a stiff Chinese dialect: "It's not very far, and it is less than sixty miles to the meadow north of Baiyinnaoer...... But I can't go any further, I have to find a place to leeward back. Set up a fire for the brothers to roast, warm up and then hurry to ......"
When Commander Yang heard this, he felt that it made sense, and said: "Pass my order, see where there is a leeward place, stop for the time being, light a fire in each company, keep warm, and also roast some horse meat to eat......
The commander of the 33rd Wing of the 36th Brigade of the Devil, Oshima Shuo Osa, received a call from the commander of the Miaki Takada Brigade and learned that the 34th Wing was attacked by the Chinese defenders at night, and the commander of the Wing, Inada Zhao, was killed by a grenade thrown by the defenders, and there were no less than a dozen commanders who were loyal to the emperor with him, and the 34th Wing also lost nearly three squadrons of men and horses.
The combat strength of the 34th Wing was greatly damaged, and it had to wait for the division and the Tongliao Command to replenish the officers and supplies......
Hearing this news, Oshima Tree O Osa didn't know what it was like, and he groaned for a while, feeling a chill down his spine. He felt that if he was the co-captain of the 34th Wing, he would never have held a meeting in the yurt, would never have made similar mistakes of one kind or another, and would not have died in vain. Like himself, Inada graduated from the Tokyo Imperial Non-commissioned Officer Department in 1916 and advanced his studies in the Army at the Imperial University in 1922.
Since he fought against the Anti-Japanese Federation and the Volunteer Army in various parts of South Manchuria and North Manchuria, the folklore, military and geography of the Shina people have become the objects of his own research.
As a son of Kumamoto, he has a talent that he will never forget, especially for the people and things in China, and he has a high interest and curiosity in training. He knows the current situation in China and the domestic situation in this country. He also knew about some warlords such as Chiang Kai-shek, as well as about the Red Army. He also understands that the current unit that has driven to Chifeng is a bandit force that does everything from tomb robbery to drug trafficking.
On the afternoon of the 28th, he suddenly got the news that the imperial army on the grassland was frequently attacked, and he was quite puzzled that an army that was so poor that it was a scumbag, and used tomb robberies as military salaries, dared to go to the grassland to fight the imperial army, especially with the Sixth Division, and ate the leopard's gall? No matter what, the 33rd Wing will also converge this and that army to see what kind of combat power they dare to be so arrogant?
Because after the occupation of Lindong, the 33rd Wing had to monitor Cui Xingwu's troops, and also had to divide a unit to intercept the remnants of Shi Wenhua coming down from the Tianshan Mountains, so Oshima Shuxiong's original plan to march south has been blocked, and the 34th Wing rushed to Baoyin Ulagai ahead of their wing. At noon on the 28th, Oshima Shuo also searched the gut-scraping laughing rice field Zhaoshi, and said in his heart that if you drive there first, you may not necessarily start a war with the Chinese army, and the imperial army of your wing will go there, why is the Chinese army so stupid and hit you with the muzzle of the gun?
Who knew that the conscience of the Chinese army was greatly broken, they did not go to war, did not issue war letters, and did not wait until dawn to fight again; Or, like many other places, such as Shenyang Beidaying, Shanhaiguan and other places, waiting for the imperial army to attack first...... Their unconventional way of playing seems to have something changing their command philosophy...... Roar ......
It was nearly half past eleven o'clock in the evening that Oshima received a call from the commander of the Miaki Takada Brigade, conveying to him the bad news of the 34th Wing, saying that it was a misfortune for the imperial army and reminding him to be on guard. After he answered the phone, he couldn't sleep, he couldn't figure out whether this bad news was happy or sad for him, and it happened that the chief of staff, Hideta Kosuke Nakasa, couldn't sleep, so the two of them drank with canned food, each filled a glass of sake, and talked freely while drinking.
In general, both of them also sighed a lot about the untimely death of the captain of the fourth wing of Inada Zhao, but said little in substance. Hideda Kosuke Nakasa is also a graduate of the Tokyo Imperial Non-commissioned Officer Division, and his home is the same as Inada Zhao's home in Kawaren Town, Kumamoto Prefecture, so Oshima Shuo is reluctant to show too much joy or worry in front of Hideda Kosuke.
This is because he has followed the division commander Lieutenant General Sakamoto Masayoumen for many years, and has been deeply influenced by his teachings and the Chinese Confucian and Mencian way of moderation...... The city government should not be too shallow to be detrimental to the career of the official.
Eida Kosuke Nakasa had already sensed what this chief was thinking, but it was not good to compliment him explicitly, because he felt that Inada-kun had just returned to the East, and as a friend and fellow countryman, he couldn't say something sorry for him......
Thinking of this, Yingda Kosuke raised his glass and toasted with Oshima Shuxiong, and said: "Oshima Osa, the attack on the 34th Wing is the misfortune of the imperial soldiers, and it is also the misfortune of you and me, our 33rd Wing should drive directly to the Xilamulun River, with the courage of the imperial soldiers, we must see what kind of Chinese defenders this Chinese defender is......"
Oshima Shuo listened to his words, and he also agreed, haha laughed, he was also eager to fight.
At this time, it was snowing outside the tent, and Hideda Xiaosuke said: "Oshima Osa, this is going to be in Japan, and the spring has already sprouted, at least it is much warmer, and it is just the right time to see the snow scene here!" Oshima Tree Hiro looked at the snow outside the window and said, "Yaxi, you and I are singing about wine, the great cause of the empire has not been competitive, come and toast...... Cheers to the empire's occupation of Manchuria and the great cause of invading China......"
Hideda Kosuke searched his intestines and scraped his stomach and wanted to say something that was not harmful to Inada Zhaosi, and Oshima Shuo liked to listen to it, when the phone rang. Oshima Shuo picked up the phone, and Miaki Takada said on the phone: "Oshima-kun, when the imperial soldiers suffered this misfortune, I couldn't sleep, poured a glass of sake, and drank it myself......"
Oshima hurriedly said: "Your Excellency General, although the imperial army has suffered this misfortune, you must take care of your health, and my 33rd Wing guarantees that under the command of the general, it will fight a decisive battle with the Shina army to the end, so as to clear the northern gate of Chifeng......" Major General Takada Miaki praised Oshima unconsciously, and ordered him to start early tomorrow morning and attack and advance towards the Xilamulun River.
On the morning of March 1, 1928, the snow in the Bahrain grassland stopped, but the temperature plummeted, the weather was cold, and the 33rd Wing of the Japanese Army was ready to move, but it was difficult to march, because it was too cold, first of all, there was no water to drink horses, and some devils were holding guns, and their fingers were frozen......
At this time, a call was received from the brigade headquarters, saying that the Tongliao Command was ordering the Lushun Aircraft Transport Team and other imperial planes to immediately unload ammunition, load cotton clothes, cold medicines, and other necessary items, and immediately fly to the Bahrain meadows to make an empty ...... to the Imperial Army
