Chapter Seventy-Four: The Japanese Army Retaliates
"Xiaohai, shouldn't we go get something to eat now, if we don't do it, we'll be hungry tomorrow!" Li Fan said. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Lu Hai nodded and said: "I want to get some food, and now it's obviously unrealistic to go back to the division commander to get some food, or let's go to the Japanese army to mix some food"?
"It's a fun idea, it's exciting to think about eating in the base camp of the Japanese army." Haizhi Zhile said.
"It's obviously unrealistic to eat under the Japanese army in front of you, and they will be incorporated into it and follow you to fight Yuwang Mountain, will you go? Let's go to some Japanese artillery towers in the distance or something!" Lu Hai said.
Immediately, Lu Hai took out the map and looked at it carefully: "Okay, there is a turret seven kilometers away from here, Li Fan, you take a squad to guard the mountain bag, let's go get food, if we haven't come back before dawn, you will retreat quickly, and strive to make a detour to Yuwang Mountain"!
Li Fan nodded and said, "Be careful."
Immediately, Lu Hai took Hai Zhizhi and Li Zheng and more than 20 of them quickly withdrew from the wheat field and walked quickly towards a Japanese artillery tower, walking for nearly an hour, and you guessed that they came to this artillery tower.
At this time, there were still a few sentries on the turret, and there were also three or four soldiers stationed below.
"Stop, what's going on"? The lights of the Japanese army came, and several sentries stopped Lu Hai and them, and Li Zheng took out the documents on his body and said: "We are responsible for pursuing the spies of the Chinese army, and now we are short of supplies and come to you to replenish them."
The Japanese sentry took the military ID card and looked at it for a while, and then Li Zheng saluted and said, "Hello sir, please come inside."
Everyone followed the Japanese sentry and walked towards a stone building next to the Japanese army's artillery tower, only to see that this is where you usually eat in Japanese dramas, and there are five tables in it.
"Sir, wait a minute, and I'll ask someone to cook for you." The Japanese sentry said respectfully.
When the Japanese sentry walked away, and only them were left in the whole room, Hai Zhizhi said: "You see that there are only five tables in this turret, which means that there are not many of them, or...
"No, as soon as the guns rang out, we were exposed, they didn't know our identity, we left after we finished supplying, and the task of the division commander was the most important"!
Haizhizhi nodded and said no more, and a few minutes later, a Japanese squad leader walked in and said, "You are the troops pursuing the Shina Army"?
Li Zhengshi stood up and said, "Yes, we have been chasing the spy for three days, and we are going to come here to replenish when we run out of rations."
Saying that, Li Zheng handed over the officer ID card on his body, and the Japanese squad leader took the ID card and said when he saw that there was no problem: "It's hard work, the food is already being prepared."
Li Zheng saluted the Japanese soldier and said, "Thank you!"
The Japanese squad leader smiled and walked out, and then walked out, and after a while, sure enough, some white-flour steamed buns and some side dishes were served, and there was roast chicken or something, and they had eaten wheat seeds for several days, even if they couldn't eat these on weekdays, they all ate it, and the Japanese squad leader thought that it was overwork, and it was not strange that he said: "I'll go get you supplies"!
Everyone closed their mouths and ate a lot, and after ten minutes, they took two bags of canned field food and some dry food, and Li Zheng got up and said, "Thank you!"
"All for the Holy War, for the Emperor"! The Japanese squad leader said.
"For the Emperor"! Li Zheng also said.
Saying that, everyone took the food with them, and Li Zheng said: "We have to continue to pursue the spy of Zhina, disturb it"!
The captain of the Japanese squad saluted and nodded, and Li Zheng waved his hand and said in Japanese: "Go"!
Although everyone didn't understand what Li Zheng said, Li Zheng knew what he meant by waving his hand, and then followed Li Zheng out of the Japanese artillery tower in a neat queue, swaggering all the way.
"Haha, these little devils are really easy to deceive, Li Zheng, where did you learn the devil's words, teach me, and then you won't have to worry about eating and drinking." Haijiji said with a smile.
"I learned this when I was studying in Japan, so I'll teach you if you want to learn." Li Zheng said with a smile.
"Did Hai Zhizhi bring out the rest of the roast chicken," Lu Hai said.
"I brought it out, but I brought it out and it was mine." Haizhi said with a cheap smile.
"Li Fan, they didn't eat anything, these are for them." Lu Hai said.
......
The sky gradually brightened, and the troops assembled by the Japanese army were also preparing for a new round of large-scale attacks, and in terms of numbers, there was an infantry wing, a cavalry brigade, an armored squadron, and two field artillery battalions, a pseudo-regiment, and Japanese heavy artillery and aircraft did not play.
Lu Hai, who learned of the deployment of troops, hurriedly reported this information to Zhang Chong, who learned the news, not only made arrangements on the defensive line, but also planted a large number of explosives on the forward positions, which were sent by Li Zongren at night, but these explosives were used to blow up tanks, and the rest were useless here, so they simply arranged them on the front line overnight, and when the Japanese army arrived, they were giving the Japanese army a big surprise.
Just before the Japanese attack, the old routine of the Japanese army was used again, that is, the plane bombing, five or six planes flew to Yuwang Mountain again and bombed indiscriminately, and after a wild bombardment, it was machine gun strafing, but the difference was that the position of the Japanese bombing this time was not the fake position set up by Zhang Chong, but the main trench where they hid the soldiers.
After a bombardment, the casualties of the 184th Division increased significantly, and some soldiers were either killed or buried alive with cat's ear holes, but after the Japanese planes bombed again, they drove to the air above the heavy artillery position on Chehuishan again, and then used machine guns to strafe the entire Chehuishan position.
Fortunately, the heavy artillery of Chehuishan was not ordered to hide in the cave, and after the Japanese bombardment indiscriminately, the Japanese heavy artillery also bombarded Yuwang Mountain on time. And most of the Japanese forces are also rapidly attacking the Yuwang Mountain position.
The entire Yuwang Mountain at this time everywhere smoke in the air, almost the entire Yuwang Mountain sky was covered, and at this time the Japanese army also approached the foot of Yuwang Mountain and began to charge, the people hidden in the cat's ear hole had to brave the extremely fierce artillery fire to start firing.
For a while, the casualties became more and more serious, and at this time, Zhang Chong said with a stern face: "What's the matter? How can the Japanese army know so clearly the hidden position of our army, and always take the lead in containing our army"?
"Could it be that a spy has come in"? Xue Zizheng frowned.
"Impossible? The current Yuwang Mountain position is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the Japanese army can't mix in, and my soldiers know that it is impossible to be a traitor"!
"We all use telephones to give orders, could it be that our phones were intercepted by the Japanese army"? Xue Zizheng thought about it and said.
Zhang Chong then remembered that almost all of his orders were notified to the front army by telephone, and the Japanese army must have listened to their phone calls, so he knew every order given by Zhang Chong, and after pondering for a while, Zhang Chong picked up the phone and called the whole army and said: "From now on, all calls will be communicated in Bai dialect, not in Chinese, and all troops will retreat to the second line and other support units"!
What Zhang Chong said was that even Xue Zizheng on the side didn't understand, because Zhang Chong was speaking the Bai dialect, that is, the Yi dialect, and after a while, all the departments of the 60th Army came with this completely incomprehensible Bai dialect, but all the troops retreated towards the second line.
In the headquarters of the Japanese army, when they heard the content of the call that they did not understand at all on the phone on the mountain, the Japanese army signal soldiers were dumbfounded, they could understand Chinese clearly, but what was the matter with this Yi dialect?
In fact, the 60th Army came from Yunnan, and 60% of the soldiers were Yi people, there was no obstacle to communication in Yi dialect, and the Yi language was difficult to understand, claiming to be a faction, different from local dialects, only the Yi people could understand it, that is, the authentic Yunnan people were also dumbfounded when the Yi people spoke the Yi language, not to mention the Japanese army!
Not only did the Japanese army not understand this, but even a few traitors in the command headquarters were completely dumbfounded, this thing was completely babbling and couldn't understand anything, what was the point of listening to someone's phone line?
After a moment of silence, Seishiro Itagaki spoke: "Let the military dogs out, bite off their telephone lines, and all the attacking troops will attack on all fronts"!
"Hey"!
Just when several hundred Japanese troops and some cavalry rushed to the forward position, our defenders on the mountain suddenly pressed the detonator, and a violent roar sounded on the front of the entire position in an instant, and the violent explosion turned the entire forward position into a fire cavity seven or eight meters high, and the Japanese troops who rushed up suffered heavy casualties in an instant, and some of them died without even slag.
At the same time, mortars and anti-aircraft artillery also began to bombard the Japanese army, the field artillery battalion directly bombarded the middle of the Japanese army, and many soldiers on the mountain also opened fire to suppress the Japanese army.
On the right side of Yuwang Mountain, about a large group of Japanese troops began to attack on the left side, and the soldiers guarding here also opened fire fiercely to greet the Japanese troops under the mountain, and on the left side of Yuwang Mountain, the same Japanese brigade cooperated with a regiment of the puppet army to attack.
At this time, Yuwang Mountain has become a battlefield, the whole line of attack and the whole line of defense are staged here, the battle is extremely fierce, the barrels of the machine guns are all red, and the roar of the artillery fire has made the ears completely roar in the sound of not hearing any other sound.
Zhang Chong's reinforcements were continuously sent to the front, and in the end, even his own spy platoon was sent out.
The Japanese troops under the mountain were charging frantically, the defenders on the mountain were frantically blocking, grenades, rifles, machine guns, and some soldiers even lit bags of explosives and threw them down.
At the same time, Li Zongren, who learned that the 184th Division had suffered the most fierce attack, hesitated for a while and ordered: "Tell Tang Enbo and Yu Xuezhong to take the initiative to contain the Japanese army, especially Tang Enbo, and tell him that if he delays the military situation, he will come and see him"!
