Chapter 290: The Battle of Manshou Mountain (5)

Zhang Fei took the lead, pulled the helicopter high, completed the formation in the air, and then flew back in the direction of Wanshou Mountain.

A distance of more than ten kilometers, just add the gas pedal and arrive. When Zhang Fei's helicopter formation flew over Wanshou Mountain, he saw that it was better to come early than to come by chance, and the battle had just started on the position of Wanshou Mountain.

After the 1st and 2nd Squadrons of the Lingmu Brigade fell into the rice field, they finally broke free from the rice field. A check of the number of people is a loss of more than half. At this time, from the position of Wanshou Mountain, fierce gunfire came.

The captain of the first squadron was shocked when he heard this, and said to the captain of the second squadron: "We have been fooled, and we have fallen for the plan of the Chinese army to divert the tiger from the mountain. Once Wanshou Mountain is lost, we will not even have a home. ”

The two squadrons of devils joined forces and rushed towards the position of Wanshou Mountain.

Of course, Han Xing and Li Shunchang couldn't let the little devil get their wish, and they were desperately blocking the little devil from retreating. But after all, the little ghost has a tenacious style, as long as he is relieved, he will fight with all his life until he hits the last person.

Therefore, Zhang Fei's helicopter formation came at the right time. At this time, there was no need for Zhang Xiaosan's order, but Zhang Fei directly ordered his formation: "The troops attacking the little devil head-on, 1,000 meters away from the enemy, tilted 45 degrees, and the headlights were all turned on, stabbing their eyes first." Then, heavy machine gun attack, beginsβ€”"

Not only Zhang Fei has experience, but these helicopter pilots also have experience. There were five or six planes, which drove directly to a distance of 1,000 meters from the enemy, and then as soon as the headlights were turned on, the heavy machine guns fired at the team attacking the devils.

The little devil was attacking, and suddenly there were so many planes flying in the sky, and the first squadron leader felt that something was wrong, it didn't seem to be our plane, our plane, how could it look like this, it had already flown over. And these planes, as if they were hanging overhead.

No, our planes simply don't have the ability to fly at night, and we can't go out at night.

It is a skill to fly fast, and it is even more capable to hang in the air and not fly!

Suddenly, a strong light fell from these planes. The eye is a strange thing, although it is a night battle, but it can also slowly become familiar with the darkness, although the sight is vague, but the difference between six and seven, eight or nine is not far from ten.

When the light shines brightly, no one's eyes can stand it! All of a sudden, his eyes were "blind".

"Holy!" The leader of the first squadron only felt that something was wrong, and he heard the roar of a heavy machine gun in his ears, which was really like heavy rain.

Needless to say, I can feel it by feeling, and the soldiers around me have fallen one after another, just like cattle and sheep being slaughtered.

Now it is really a rat that has drilled into the bellows, and the two ends are angry, there is Li Xiaoyi's security regiment in front of the block, and then there is the attack of the Southern Expeditionary Army and Li Shunchang, no, it should be said that the three heads are angry, and there is heavy machine gun fire in the air.

The leader of the first squadron and all the officers and men could only lie on the ground, silently gritting their teeth to bear the blow from the air. If you get up once, you will die faster.

The first squadron leader insisted on it without saying a word, and after a while, his eyes gradually returned to normal. Slowly opened his eyes and saw that he was lucky, he was not shot, but the officers and soldiers next to him were not so lucky, and a large number of people died.

How to fight this battle, if you want to fight, you don't have the capital, the leader of the first squadron had to give the order to break through, led the remaining dozens of people, and rushed outside desperately......

There was also a group of Japanese troops, that is, Captain Lingmu who was watching the battle not far away, and he was quite confident. Ever since he saw the Chinese helicopters carrying the soldiers away, he knew something was wrong. Hearing the fierce gunfire in Nanchang, his mood became more and more depressed for a while, and when he saw this helicopter squadron flying back again.

He had a hunch that Nanchang's reinforcements were over.

He saw this helicopter squadron striking his first and second squadrons so hard, and lamented in his heart: "Not to mention some remnants of the defeated generals, even the Japanese army of a wing can't withstand such a blow from these planes!" We...... Withdraw too! ”

He also gave orders to these dozens of his men to retreat.

What I don't understand about this battle is Li Xiaoyi in the Wanshou Mountain position. He said to the adjutant: "Commander Han gave Battalion Commander Zhang Xiaosan three tips when he left, it seems that he is in charge......

"Absolutely in charge," through this battle, the adjutant's view of the Southern Expeditionary Army has completely changed, and he also admires Han Xing so much, "With Battalion Commander Zhang's brain, how can he have such an idea." The first trick is actually a suspicious tactic, which expands the momentum of our attack on the Wanshou Mountain position, and wants to scare the Lingmu Brigade away.

Unexpectedly, Lingmu's Wanshou Mountain was so difficult to gnaw, and Battalion Commander Zhang had to open the second bag, which was actually the air force that was transferred to the Southern Expeditionary Army and attacked the position of Wanshou Mountain. After we occupied Wanshou Mountain, the enemy's Nanchang reinforcements and the two squadrons that came up first and transferred out came back. If the enemy from three ways is attacked, Wanshou Mountain will be gained and lost.

At this time, Battalion Commander Zhang opened the third bag, to put it bluntly, the Southern Expeditionary Army called Zhang Xiaosan sat on these strange planes and broke the enemy individually. ”

"So," Li Xiaoyi only figured out the taste at this moment, "Han Xing is just like Zhuge Liang, he can pinch and calculate, and he can surprise soldiers, which is also true?" ”

"It's absolutely true," the adjutant also boasted for the Southern Expeditionary Army at this time, "I see that this Han Xing, not only has Zhuge Liang's talent as a leader, but also some strange weapons, like a big bomb that is burning in the back, these planes that go straight up and down, have you ever seen it?" It's the first time I've seen it! ”

Li Xiaoyi finally figured it out and said: "If the Southern Expeditionary Army can win the battle, not only the commander has extraordinary military command ability, but also these very powerful weapons!" ”

Since Wanshou Mountain was occupied by the Chinese army, the Japanese 34th Division was supposed to withdraw to their place of departure, but of course their hometown was occupied, and they could not come back, so they could only make a detour to Nanchang.

By April 2, the 49th Army took over Xishan and Wanshou Palace, and the 70th Army reoccupied Fengxincheng, all the lost territory was recovered, and the Battle of Shanggao ended.

In this battle, more than 65,000 Japanese troops participated in the battle and suffered casualties as high as 16,000, of which the 33rd Division suffered relatively light casualties, and the 34th Division and the 20th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade suffered more than 50% casualties.

The casualties of the national army were 20,000. Although the casualties of the national army were slightly higher than those of the Japanese army, this was already the smallest casualty ratio since the Anti-Japanese War.

The results of the battle directly led to the downfall of the commander of the 11th Army Corps, Kazuichiro Sonobe.

The Japanese military top brass continued to be angry, and dismissed Kazuichiro Sonobe, commander of the 11th Army, from his post on charges of improper command, and replaced Lieutenant General Anami, who had served as commander of the 109th Division stationed in Fenyang, Shanxi, and later as vice minister of the Ministry of the Army, as the new commander of the 11th Army.

As a result, Kazuichiro Sonobe was laid off less than a year after taking office, becoming the commander of the 11th Army with the shortest tenure.

The conclusion of the Southern Expeditionary Army is that the Chinese side won a complete victory in this battle, and under such a large gap in the military strength of China and Japan, can there be such an achievement, is it not a big victory?

Han Xing believes that the victory or defeat of a war does not depend on the number of dead people, but on whether the goal of the battle can be achieved. At the beginning of the campaign, the Chinese side always occupied the initiative in the campaign, and until the end of the final battle of Shanggao, the Chinese side still occupied the initiative in the campaign.

Now that the battle of Shanggao is over, in view of the tense situation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, it is better to stay away from them. The Southern Expeditionary Army immediately reorganized its ranks, transported troops from the air and road to Hengyang Airport, and then airlifted from Hengyang Airport to Guanxian, completing this great Shanggao Campaign.

Zhang Weihan, commander of the New 8th Brigade, and the personnel of the headquarters personally took over the wind and dust for the Southern Expeditionary Army, held a meeting to sum up experience, and a meritorious service award meeting, so that the Southern Expeditionary Army could have a good rest, needless to mention.

The Southern Expeditionary Army had a good time in their own homes, eating and resting well.

But these soldiers of Han Xing are used to fighting. I am a little tired of fighting for a long time, but I am even more bored of not fighting and being idle.

Hou Dashan, Yin Zhaoli, You Qianqian, Zhang Xiaosan, Wu Xiaoming, Li Dazhong, these fierce generals found Han Xing again, saying this and that, it is nothing more than how others are, and it is not a matter of us being idle! You commander, look up there and see where we can be used!

As for Liu Zhiyuan, he has been promoted and has been transferred to the 4th Division of the Luxi Military Region as the commander. Han Xing was both happy and a little disappointed for this old comrade-in-arms.

Some people also say gossip, look at it, your subordinates have been promoted, what is the matter with you as a commander! When you went south, you were a commander, and as long as you didn't go south, you would be dismissed, and it didn't count as anything!

Han Xing is a person from the past, and he doesn't take these gossips to heart. Who let himself carry the identity of a military commander! During the Southern Expedition, having such an identity can play a good role as a cover. But in the base area, with such an identity, who would dare to use himself!

However, if you should find Zhang Weihan to ask for help, you have to find it, a soldier, he is born for war!

Before asking for war, he first studied the situation in his second hometown, Chiping County.

After Fan Zhuxian's death on November 15, 1938, the Japanese invaders occupied Liaocheng, and Chiping County also fell into chaos. On the first day of the first lunar month in 1939, the Japanese invaders occupied Chiping, and the county seat was lost.

In January, the Japanese invaders launched an attack on the three detachments of the recalcitrant army Qi Zixiu stationed in the area of Chiping Daluzhuang, and pursued them to Chinan Dawuzhuang, forcing all the men and horses of Qi Zixiu to surrender to the Japanese invaders soon after, and Qi Zixiu became the commander of the puppet army.

After the Japanese invaders in the autumn of 1939, they swept Cui Lou in the fourth district of the old county government of the Kuomintang, and the detective captain Li Qishan led all the men to join Qi Zixiu and became the head of the fourth regiment of the puppet army.
