Chapter 45: Avalanches and Cracks
Yamamoto Daisa, like a bull that can't be pulled back, didn't even pay attention to the warning telegram from the Kwantung Army Headquarters, and plunged headlong into the border of Qinggang Prefecture!
Seeing that the pursuers behind him were introduced into the territory of Qinggang County by himself, Li Yunlong knew that the task had been completed. Next, he led his troops to slow down the retreat, and he had to give the commander-in-chief some time to reflect.
In fact, where does Ren Laifeng use him, what reaction time does he have? As soon as the sharp knife detachment led the devils out of Bei'an County, Ren Laifeng received the news. The idea is his, the tactic is set by him, can he not pay more attention?
Ren Laifeng sent the sharp knife detachment to Bei'an County to lure the enemy, and he himself led the mechanized troops purchased from the Soviet Russian side back to Qinggang. Ren Laifeng wanted to put this small-scale local encirclement and annihilation battle in his own base area Qinggang, so that he could not only test the lethality of these new weapons, but also ensure absolute safety. The first time I tried it, Ren Laifeng didn't want to make any mistakes.
The scouts continuously reported the progress of the Sharp Knife Detachment to the commander-in-chief, and when Ren Laifeng saw that the fire was almost over, he immediately gave the Sharp Knife Detachment an order: Quickly accelerate to the southeast and disengage from contact with the enemy!
As soon as Li Yunlong received the order, he knew what was going on, this was the commander-in-chief who had already arranged everything and was about to do it! He came back from Chik County with him, so he naturally knew that his leaders had bought a large number of heavy weapons, and this time he was going to test the power of these big guys.
Today's battle has nothing to do with his Sharp Knife detachment, not even with the vast majority of the partisan troops. Except for the artillery detachment and the Flying Tiger Battalion, everyone only has to be spectators.
"Let's go! The commander-in-chief has an order, move in the southeast direction! Come on! After Li Yunlong loudly conveyed the commander-in-chief's military order, he took the lead and went down in the southeast direction! Behind him, the warriors of the Sharp Knife Detachment rode their horses and followed closely behind, and the sound of horses' hooves was like muffled thunder.
Li Yunlong took his sharp knife detachment and ran faster! Of course, Yamamoto Osa led a group of infantry could not keep up, and suddenly there was no target in pursuit, and the enemy ran away! Yamamoto hesitated. He already sensed that this could be a conspiracy! If he immediately led the troops to turn around, there might be a glimmer of life, but his blind confidence in his own strength led him to a point of no return.
"Onward! Target Qinggang County, capture Ren Laifeng alive, eliminate the guerrillas, and go! "The goal has changed from chasing the cavalry at the beginning to attacking Qinggang County and eliminating the guerrillas. After knowing that the front was a guerrilla base, Yamamoto Daisa's appetite suddenly grew.
His Excellency Osa, with more than 1,000 Japanese troops rushing in the direction of Qinggang County, came with no idea that there was a grim reaper waiting for him and his troops with a grim smile in front of him.
That is, after the sharp knife detachment disappeared, the Japanese army advanced about 500 meters. Suddenly, a thunderclap sounded in the wilderness like a clear sky, "Boom! Bang! Bang! There was a loud bang, and the color of the sky was red and dark, as if a peerless demon had been born. Between heaven and earth, there is a vastness before the catastrophe comes.
Yamamoto Daisa's eyes widened in horror, and he looked at the arrows of death flying from the sky at high speed one by one! The next moment, the earth turned into a sea of fire, and the earth became an endless hell.
Countless fire snakes scurried, and the landslides cracked, several times more violent than the Great Kanto Earthquake of that year. Countless young Japanese soldiers were instantly turned into pieces, and their severed limbs flew into the sky and fell everywhere, and the bright red blood stained the earth.
Yamamoto Dasa was so angry that he scolded: "Eight grid tooth road! As soon as the scolding fell, a hot cannonball landed three meters away from him and exploded.
The flames and waves of qi instantly threw His Excellency Osa into the sky, and then turned into the energy between heaven and earth, and countless organic matter returned to the earth, nourishing this soil that had been slaughtered by the flames of war. Waiting for the future when a plant sprouts, he can enjoy this warm sunshine again in another form.
The cannon unleashed bombs one after another, turning the battlefield into a hell of fire. Ren Laifeng held a telescope in his hand and carefully observed everything on the shooting range. Yes, the area where the Japanese troops were located was the shooting range, the shooting range of the guerrilla artillery detachment. Cai Gaofeng, the commander of the artillery detachment, was using this opportunity to train his artillerymen.
Anyway, the enemy has no power to fight back, they can't even run, what a good target! Cai Gaofeng couldn't even help but be excited, and personally manipulated the cannon to fire a shot. And his cannon sent Yamamoto Daisa back to the Yasukuni Shrine in a righteous manner.
The siege lasted ten minutes. Ten minutes later, the shelling stopped, and the artillery put away its artillery and prepared to evacuate. Leaving after the fight is a tactic that the artillerymen must master, and at the same time, it is also the only magic weapon for them to save their lives. Even if there can be no danger today, this iron discipline must never be violated. The artillery left, and the Flying Tiger battalion went up.
Today, the Flying Tiger Battalion is re-equipped with automobiles and is once again the only formed mechanized unit of the guerrillas. Who else but them can do this kind of work faster and better?
The Flying Tiger Battalion went up to check the results of the shelling, and the results were quickly passed back. Most of the Japanese troops were annihilated, and a few fled.
This is not an oversight on the part of Ren Laifeng, no matter what kind of annihilation war in history, as long as it is slightly larger, there is rarely a result that is left behind. Including the Battle of Changping in history, not one of Zhao's 400,000 troops died without running. There were more than 1,000 Japanese puppet troops who came to pursue, and it would be unrealistic to say that a single shell killed them all and didn't run away.
A small number of enemies have fled, but this is on Chinese soil, in the base area actually controlled by the anti-Japanese guerrillas in Northeast China, and it is really unknown whether they will be able to run back to Bei'an County alive.
This battle of annihilation was fought suddenly and violently, leaving no time for the enemy to react, and Yamamoto Osa and the Japanese army led by him had completely disappeared between the white mountains and black waters in the northeast.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Ren Laifeng immediately ordered his troops, and he would personally lead the cavalry detachment and a car company of the Flying Tiger Battalion to Bei'an County. The devil slaughtered the people of Shimen Village and captured more than a dozen women in the village, Ren Laifeng promised the villagers of Shimen Village to rescue people, and he couldn't go back on his word.
The sharp knife detachment lured the enemy, including the Qinggang annihilation of the enemy this time, which was caused by the Shimen Village tragedy. Now that the battle is over, and when it is time to fulfill his promise, Ren Laifeng naturally can't avoid it. Let's go, go to Bei'an County again, and see what Bei'an has become without devils.
