225. Inside and outside the wall
After Motegi Mae Nozuki decided to concentrate his forces to attack the northern wall of Kim Sang-tae, he was still nervous, for fear that he would be calculated by the 117th Brigade if he was not careful. He weighed it again and again with Umei www.biquge.info sent a number of staff officers and people from the special high school to surround Jin Shengtai to reconnoitre. The results of the return also confirmed the sketches drawn back by the spies who went to Kim Shengtai to investigate before. Motegi wanted to get the insightful instructions of his boss, so he held meetings in Chifeng and Tongliao respectively, but in the end, he didn't come up with a strategy to break the enemy.
While Motegi ordered the wings to step up their advance of the fortifications, he also called Koshiko Kuniaki and asked him to continue to send troops to trap the 117th Brigade in the small town and starve them to death. After a while, Xiao Ji Guozhao also called back, and he said: "Your Excellency General, what you said about increasing troops for you, besieging but not attacking or besieging and attacking is the best trick of the imperial army, and it can be the best policy." But now the Kwantung Army is also in the whirlpool of war, and it is difficult to pull out a single foot, so it has to wait for the mainland to mobilize troops. ”
"The anti-alliance of South Manchuria and North Manchuria contained 800,000 Kwantung troops before and after; From the Yalu River in the east, to the Daxing'an Mountains in the west, to Changbai in the north, and to Rehe in the south, it is estimated that there are more than 300 armed forces against the imperial army. They were elusive, and the imperial army they fought was really a little tired of coping. In the battle plan of the South Road, the 14th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army, which was attacking the Great Wall, was blocked by the 29th Army of the Northwest Army of the Chinese Army at Xifengkou and Luowenyukou. Taking advantage of the dark night and high winds, the army sent surprise soldiers to attack frequently at night, and cut off the heads of the imperial army with big swords. The imperial army there, sleeping at night, had to put their necks around with iron hoops...... Therefore, if you want to draw troops to the west, you must delay it for a few days. But you can also rest assured that the soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army will arrive in a steady stream. The Emperor also convened a cabinet meeting to take advantage of the Chinese civil war to launch a full-scale invasion of China......"
Motegi suddenly thought that the soldiers of the Imperial Army were not very big, and it was too right to attack from the northern wall. So, he stepped out of the tent, came to the bunker, and scanned the progress of the various wings digging fortifications. He saw that the soldiers of each wing were sweating and digging forward, and while digging the fortifications, the guns and bullets on both sides were flying, and there was already a small battle, and the big battle was imminent.
The owner of the National University said: "The big housekeeper Guo Donglin, you pull the rest of the people out, let Lian Fa teach him, how to load bullets, how to aim, how to hit the devil ......" turned around and said to Yang Chengzan: "I'll go to the temple for a while, you keep an eye here, I'll come when I go......" He was accompanied by several family members, walked out of the south courtyard quickly, and walked towards the old man's temple in the north-east direction. When they arrived at the Lao Ye Temple, the soldiers did not stop them, and they went straight to the headquarters set up in the main hall. Staff Officer Ma stepped forward to salute and said: "Just now, Deputy Brigade Commander Ji and Chief of Staff Zhang went to the front line to inspect the front, and inspired by the soldiers, they used the front command headquarters of the 233rd Regiment to dig a lookout gap, and Brigade Commander Ding also went to inspect the enemy...... Do you have something? ”
When the owner of the National University heard that it was unfortunate, he was afraid that the military situation would be delayed and the fighter plane would be delayed, so he said: "The old man is here, it's not a big deal, just to see what the brothers of the Southern Army still lack, we will try our best to meet your ......" At this time, the footsteps of many people came, and the guards shouted loudly: "Brigade Commander Ding has arrived, salute-" The owner of the National University and others hurriedly turned to the door to greet them. I saw Brigade Commander Ding striding in surrounded by everyone. When Brigade Commander Ding saw that it was the owner of the National University, he stepped forward with a smile and shook the hand of the national Bailing, and said, "The big boss, are you in trouble?" Is it because my subordinates are reckless and make you angry? ”
Guo Bailing shook his head and said, "You are the teachers of benevolence and righteousness, and there is no place for recklessness. I came here this time for two things, first, about the spies, you can deal with what you should do, don't let me find a personal affair. I'm quite ashamed of this, and we won't talk about the past. The devil's intentions are far-reaching, and it can be seen that he has long had the heart to kill my China. Second, there are many devil guns and plenty of bullets, which is their advantage, and we don't have it. But we have a dirt trick, I don't know if it works...... "When everyone heard him say that he has a dirt trick, they all wanted to hear it. I'm so tired from working with Motegi these days, wouldn't it be better if I really had a miracle trick. Brigade Commander Ding also looked at his face carefully, and said: "Ao, the big boss really has a trick and can kill and injure the Japanese army, that's great, I would like to hear about it, and I also ask the big boss to give me advice." ”
Guo Bailing hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "The military master has won the award, how can I be a common man with any strange tricks, but I just heard the idea of the subordinate, and some people said that they stood in the limelight and sprinkled pepper noodles on the devil...... I've ordered someone to pack all the chili noodles from the grocery stores and stalls, but the chili noodles are limited after all. I suddenly remembered, I don't know if it's okay, there are limited chili noodles in our small town, but there are ...... horse dung eggs" Everyone heard that the wind of chili noodles could be spicy to the eyes of the devil, but the horse dung eggs, no one had tasted them, how could he achieve the effect of hurting the devil?
The people in the headquarters not only said that they were grateful, but that respect was a must. Brigadier Ding was quietly thinking about what he said, and at the same time, he also had to make a statement to the big boss, the Japanese spies in the city, dead and alive, had nothing to do with his big boss, and his Brigadier Ding's words were the final word. But before Brigade Commander Ding finished speaking, Deputy Brigade Commander Ji smiled, and he said: "The owner of the National University, there are high-ranking people under him, and he sprinkles chili noodles in the wind, and there have been in the history of war." In addition, during the Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese general, once ordered the soldiers to raise the ashes left over from cooking on a sea boat. ”
After Deputy Brigade Commander Ji finished speaking, Brigade Commander Ding said: "The owner of the National University, sprinkling chili noodles on the devil with the wind is indeed a good strategy, which can alleviate the problem of the devil's fierce attack." On behalf of all the officers and men of the 117th Brigade, I would like to express my gratitude, but you still have to tell everyone about how to kill and injure devils with horse dung eggs, so that we can quickly implement the ......" The owner of the National Congress listened to Brigade Commander Ding's urging, and said: "The matter of horse dung eggs is something I suddenly remembered, in the early years, Qian Baichuan Dadong's family used this method to deal with bandits, and now I don't know if it can deal with devils." Let's light the dry horse manure, put it in a small cloth bag, and throw the idea into the sky. The wind helps the fire, and the horse manure will be more vigorous, and it will definitely burn the bag, and when the wind blows, isn't it all fire and ashes that fall? Can the devil not be afraid of burning? ”
When everyone heard about his roasted horse dung eggs, they also thought it was feasible, so they all chattered and discussed. Brigade Commander Ding said again: "The owner of the National University, the two strategies you mentioned are very feasible, but according to what I just went to the temporary lookout to see, outside the north wall, the ground is too wide, so where to sprinkle the chili noodles?" Just this kung fu, the devil is still far away, the chili noodles are sprinkled, and the wind will not blow anywhere, and it will fall to the ground......" Staff Officer Wang said: "Brigade Commander Ding, why don't we take the owner of the National University to the lookout again, visually check the progress of the devil, and then discuss how to throw things into the sky when we come back......"
Deputy Brigade Commander Ji said: "Staff Officer Wang is right, go and inspect it visually, but Chief of Staff Zhang and I won't go, let's study how to throw the chili noodles up." He said to the big boss of the country: "Big boss, who is the person who came up with the idea of chili noodles, we want to meet him......" Brigade Commander Ding said: "That's fine, our soldiers are divided into two roads, which can save time......" Guo Bailing looked at these military masters, especially those who were called Brigade Commander Ding and Deputy Brigade Commander Ji, who spoke and acted simply, neatly, and did not complain that people had fought with devils these days, this is a general sent down by God.
Hearing Deputy Brigade Commander Ji's question, he hurriedly said: "The idea of chili noodles is a young ......man from Fan Guangyuan called by one of my grocery store shopkeepers" He turned around and said to a family member: "Go, call Fan shopkeeper here, just say that the military master has something to do, I called him here...... The family agreed, turned around and ran out. After Guo Bailing sent Jia Ding away, he followed Brigade Commander Ding and others to the 233rd Regiment in the middle of the rear wall. When they got there, Commander Miao continued, and Brigade Commander Ding introduced the owner of the National University to Commander Miao. Commander Miao said with a smile: "I have been looking up for a long time, in fact, we met just now, you can dedicate one of your cities, my generation of soldiers is grateful, moved, and felt, and I really can't express it in words." Let's put it this way, as long as the little devil dares to come closer, he will definitely die in Huangquan. We've been fighting Motegi for these days, so we don't have enough lives, but we have to keep your little town......"
Guo Bailing listened, clasped his fists and said, "This military master has won the award." My small town, I don't give it up, and the devils are also worried about it, and the spies that have been discovered are proof of this. Besides, if the country is ruined and the country is gone, can the family still be preserved? So, don't think about keeping my little town. My country's Bailing started from scratch, borrowing the strength of everyone to enrich this small city. But I have always regarded money as dung, and the enemy is now the only way to give up ......"
After hearing what they said, Brigade Commander Ding said: "The owner of the National Congress, sincerity can show the sun and the moon, and the great will be touched by the world, all the officers and soldiers of my 117th Brigade will ......encourage you again" Guo Bailing said: "Master Ding is serious, someone in my country can afford to take it and let it go, at this time we really want to hate the same enemy, but once you can't hold it, you don't have to think about the small city and me, you can withdraw." There is a saying that the army is impermanent, and if you play with devils, you still suffer a loss......" Brigade Commander Ding and the commanders, listening to his words, although they were noncommittal, they were also moved. Brigade Commander Ding said again: "The owner of the National University, come and see, the tricks of the little devils are evil enough, they are digging the fortifications obliquely, intending to dig directly to the root of our big wall......"
He turned back to Staff Officer Wang and said: "Inform all regiments and directly subordinate teams of their ideas, all the fortifications of the devils are moving forward rapidly, and those who dig gun holes and build ladders have found a powerful position to accurately kill and injure the devils...... Staff Officer Wang immediately received the order, turned around and ordered people to pass the order. Brigade Commander Ding said again: "Boss of the National University, you see, the devils are all advancing in the fortifications, and there are still about 200 meters away from the big wall. Guo Bailing also made a visual inspection through the hidden lookout seam and said: "Throwing horse manure into the sky, you can only find a throwing pole." But we don't often make that house, and it is estimated that it is very good to throw three zhang high. Let the devil push it forward a little more......"
At this moment, Lian Fa ran over and said, "Dadong, the chili noodles are ready, and the pole throwing post is also ready...... Guo Bailing asked: "Where is the horse manure?" Ready to get started? Lianfa said, "I'm getting ready." However, you see how suitable this pole post has to be buried, or it is tied to the big wheel, so you can move it......" Guo Bailing heard this, and said: "Okay......" Everyone looked at the continuous hair, and Brigade Commander Ding said: "What a smart man......"
Motegi took out his pocket watch and saw that it was a little past ten. Qingyang Mountain, which is iron blue in the southwest, is more solemn by the sun. He felt more and more that this abrupt and upright mountain had a sense of inadquest. He thought of Mt. Fuji, of the Yamato nation, that the mountains became taller, and that war became more sacred. Divine is crazy if he is too sacred, he grabbed the bunker on the south side of the tent, looked at the east and west for a long time, and said to the herald Second Lieutenant Noda: "The herald has passed, and the brigades and regiments have stepped up their attacks, and there are ...... places" Captain Yamaoka received the order and immediately asked Matsuda's brigade to rush out of the trench and towards the wall......
