Chapter 277: Unite at Night

On this day, Hanfeng's troops captured a large number of enemy weapons and ammunition, which were initially estimated to be more than 5,000 rifles, more than 150 light machine guns, 12 heavy machine guns, more than 30 medium machine guns, more than 40 20-mm machine guns, and more than 20 37-mm anti-aircraft guns.

This is not counting the field heavy artillery, mountain artillery, infantry artillery in the heavy artillery wing of Miyamoto's troops.

By the way, attached to the heavy artillery wing, there were also two anti-aircraft gun squadrons and two anti-aircraft machine gun squadrons of the Japanese army.

Of the captured artillery fire, one-fifth was blown up, and the rest, intact, became trophies of the Chinese army.

This is a major win!

Hanfeng's troops, having pursued the enemy, regained the three important gates of Jinling City, and the city walls of the north, northeast and northwest of the city for more than ten miles.

In the evening, the units spontaneously organized themselves, set up their own defensive positions, and rested.

Hanfeng also acted urgently, and the seaside strategy was deployed.

He ordered Li Tecong to be the remaining commander in the area of the Military Grain City and the Kaimen Building, mobilize Ye Zheng's troops, enter the northwest region, and be responsible for the city defense tasks in the northwest zone, mobilize Zhao Chongguo's troops to the north, control the city defense to the east of Rujiangmen, and mobilize Du Fenglie to the northeast to serve as the commander.

Set up the phone line quickly and contact you at any time.

In Jinling City, there are still a lot of telephones and telephone lines, which can be found in some ruins and some high-rise buildings with small losses. Together with the equipment of the captured Japanese army, it was easy to obtain.

These officers were all instructed by Han Feng.

Gather and organize troops, mobilize citizens, establish defensive positions in depth, and collect and seize large quantities of weapons and ammunition. At the same time, prevent enemy sneak attacks at night.

On the Han Feng side, the focus is on managing the artillery problem.

Twenty field guns were quickly divided into four detachments, one remained in the middle position, and three were assigned to the command of three corps commanders.

As for the commander of the artillery detachment, he gave a face-to-face lecture and asked everyone to further familiarize themselves with the shooting and observation procedures, and also master the observation in the light of night.

A new round of training of artillery was carried out.

After that, the artillery detachment, with the cooperation of the infantry, took away the field artillery and shells with great difficulty.

Here it has to be said that today's seizure.

The most fundamental reason for the elimination of the Miyamoto Heavy Artillery Wing was to strike preemptively.

Moreover, with the most advanced sighting system, the most rookie artilleryman, fool egg, can leap to surpass the most skilled artillery professionals of the Japanese army.

100% accurate aiming, which was unimaginable for the Japanese army.

And, their disguise!

Exquisite camouflage, blinded most of the enemy, especially the enemy artillery officers.

Also, the artillery of the Japanese army, in fact, was not in its heyday, especially the shells, which were pitifully few and easily refused to be used.

This was caused by the enemy's long transport lines and repeated attrition by Hanfeng's troops.

The artillery of Miyamoto's wing was almost completely destroyed, the artillery fire was still there, some of the shells were not all detonated, and the most comfortable thing was that a large number of Japanese horses were captured.

As a result, more than two hundred military horses were dragged over to haul the cannons.

As for the artillery fire and shells under the command of Miyamoto United, everything that could be used was divided.

These artillery shells were formed into artillery regiments of various units to enrich the firepower.

After these things were done, Han Feng led a guard platoon and quickly inspected the entire recovery area.

The first is the northeast direction.

The troops have formulated a strict password and alert identification system, and in the northeast region, Du Fenglie's troops are ready to fight.

Thinking about it beforehand, after making an appointment by phone, I entered the position relatively smoothly.

Du Fenglie was busy, sending the chief of staff to receive Han Feng, accompanied by a number of officers.

Han Feng inspected and inquired about the situation.

Fortunately, his eyesight is extraordinary, he can see at night, he can easily see through the night, and he can also see the effect of the day at night.

"Two lines of defense will not work, to establish at least three lines of defense, there must be depth."

"The number of city defense troops cannot be too large. Beware of the enemy's surprise attack, they are very dangerous, they cannot be attacked by the enemy in one fell swoop, there are too many troops on the front line, they will suffer heavy losses, and they cannot be adjusted! ”

"Pay attention to artillerymen, they can have night vision, what is night vision? If you are attacked by an enemy, or you can't see the situation clearly at night, or if you are attacked by an enemy, go there immediately! ”

Now, the Du Fenglie Legion, nominally a corps, after a bitter battle, plus a part of the citizens and guerrilla warfare detachments joined, the total strength is only more than 5,000 people.

Among them were some old and infirm soldiers.

There were still 2,000 men in the tunnel system in their rear bases, all of whom were women, children, and seriously wounded who could not fight.

Han Feng also inspected Zhao Chongguo's corps in the north of the city and Ye Zheng's corps in the northwest of Caochangmen.

It's all about the same.

There are not many people, and morale is high.

It was three hours before he returned.

The various corps reorganized and enriched their troops.

During this period, the rear personnel, the grain in the general grain city and the warehouse area, made meals and delivered them to the front-line officers and soldiers, as well as hot water, all of which were filled with captured devil kettles.

Hundreds of enemy horses killed and wounded by artillery fire were also made into horse meat barbecue and steamed, and distributed to the troops.

The officers and men of the victorious unit were elated, and if it were not for strict orders, many would have sung for fear of the enemy's sneak attack and counterattack at night.

The sacrificed fighters, unable to be identified at night, could not be searched and buried for the time being.

Only the wounded were saved.

Lacking in medicines and bandages, people can only figure out how to do it.

The elderly and children, the women, the sick, have taken action and become health care workers for the mobilization of the whole population.

They tore and washed the shirts and cotton clothes on the corpses of devils, dried them with their hands on the flames, disinfected them, and gave them to the wounded.

Some of the most cultured girls sang songs and told stories to the wounded to comfort their pain.

In short, here, everyone is doing what they can, an anti-war arm, full of vitality, full of confidence in victory.

Han Feng inspected the southern cordon.

This is the most tight.

It is in charge of Li Tecong.

The soldiers formed a cordon in the streets and alleys, in the ruins, and strictly forbade all personnel to pass.

Even the elderly and children are not allowed to pass.

Because, what Han Feng was most worried about was that the Japanese army would disguise Chinese citizens at night and carry out a surprise sneak attack.

Although he had already briefed the officers and men of the unit on various experiences in guarding against the enemy, he was still worried.

Once the enemy penetrates into the hinterland of our positions, the damage caused will be extremely great.

During the inspection, I really encountered some guerrilla detachments, more than a dozen people, with guns and bullets, who wanted to come to the north to join the troops.

Han Feng shouted, asking them to hold off and wait until dawn to screen them.

"Sir, they're our own people!" The vigilant soldier relented.

"No, what if they're kidnapped by devils? What if, the devil's Chinese is also so good? Han Feng asked rhetorically.
