Chapter 3 (Part 2)
"Go and copy King De's hometown, it's in Xilin Gol, more than a thousand miles away from us," Zhang Songling was toasted by a large number of people in turn since the beginning of the banquet At this moment, he was almost drunk The reaction speed slowed down seriously Stunned and responded in surprise
"Yes, more than a thousand miles away, the old battalion of the guerrillas has been stared at by little devils, once the main force is far away, I am afraid that it will soon be caught by Kawada Kuniaki, and it can be taken advantage of" Fang Guoqiang's vigilance was originally relatively high, and he secretly strengthened his vigilance, afraid that Zhang Songling would accidentally fall into the hands of others, so he quickly raised his wine glass and helped beside him
"It's okay, we can go and destroy the devils in Black Rock City first, and then turn around and go to Xilin Gol, so that you won't be afraid of the little devils snooping on your old camp again "Just after a big victory, the self-confidence of the regiment leader Lao Qi was greatly encouraged, and he gave a solution without thinking about it
"I'm afraid it's not easy," Zhang Songling was stunned by the other party's bold words, smiled, and hesitated to explain, "Although the Japanese troops stationed in Heishizhai are not as elite as the Kodama squadron, they are the size of a brigade after all, and the walls of Heishizhai are notoriously strong, just with these four mountain cannons in your old hands, I'm afraid it will ......."
He didn't finish the rest of the words, but he was obviously not optimistic about the idea of the head of the old Qi The latter's face immediately turned red, his eyebrows raised, and he asked loudly, "I'm afraid of what, could it be that the walls of the Black Stone Village can still block the cannonballs?" I don't believe it, there are really walls in this world that can't be collapsed."
"It's possible to use explosives packs, and if you use Soviet-made Type 09 mountain guns, I'm afraid it's really a waste of shells," Zhang Songling smiled again, shook his head and explained, "Since it's a black stone village, of course the city wall is made of stone, and that kind of pure black stone should be classified as marble, and it's very strong, and if a bullet hits it, it can only leave a white mark, and if you use a cannonball, I'm afraid you'll have to take 105 caliber German goods" (Note 1)
"If we attack Heishi Village, the devils and puppet troops of the Xing'an Garrison Headquarters will definitely not sit idly by, and if it becomes a pot of raw rice, it will be more difficult for us to evacuate safely," Fang Guoqiang analyzed the omissions in Lao Qi's previous thoughts from a strategic height Although the 93rd Regiment can be regarded as a huge armed force in the Dongmeng grassland, it is faced with the problem of being too far away from its own rear like the Blackstone guerrillas, and in this case, it is no problem to fight some short and fierce encounters and ambush battles However, if a stalemate is fought, there is a risk that the enemy forces will be trapped by the enemy forces rushing from all directions, and then the roles of the hunter and the prey will be completely displaced, and the consequences will be unimaginable
"Yes, although we have completely annihilated the Kodama squadron this time, our own losses are not small, and we will immediately attack Black Rock City, I am afraid it will be difficult to receive the desired result," Not only Zhang Songling and Fang Guoqiang expressed their opposition, but there were also some officers in the Ninety-third Regiment who were very optimistic about Lao Qi's idea, and came over one after another and whispered advice
There are also some middle-level officers who are sensibly silent In their impression, their own regiment leader Lao Qi has never been a reckless man who will pay any price for the sake of fame Since the latter suddenly proposed to destroy the devils in the Black Stone Village today It must have been carefully thought out or to achieve other longer-term goals The eyes of the group are not as deep as the head of the regiment Just continue to drink and eat food There is no need to go over to make trouble for his old man
The only one who unswervingly jumped up to show his support to Lao Qi was the fat staff officer Shao Yong, I saw him waving his thick palms, and his voice was hoarse, "Fight, don't fight, try it, how do you know that you can't beat it, it's a big deal to turn around and leave halfway through the fight, at least it can scare Kawada Kuniaki half to death."
However, war is not a child's play after all, and you can't ignore reality for the sake of a momentary battle of wills I found that only Staff Officer Shao was on his side Regiment Leader Lao Qi's mind quickly regained his composure, frowned, and said in a low voice: "Since everyone feels that it is difficult to storm Heishi Village, then let Kawada Kuniaki be arrogant for a few more days However, I still hope that Captain Zhang can consider my previous proposal As for your guerrilla old camp, I can consider letting Zhou Heitan move his team nearby and form a horn with you." In this case, Kawada Kuniaki can't figure out the real situation on our side, and it is estimated that he will not dare to take the initiative to attack for a while."
"Yes, come with us to dig out King De's lair, your guerrilla cavalry is so strong, it's a waste to stay and guard your home."
"Let's go, Captain Zhang, let's work together again to surprise King De" The other officers of the 93rd Regiment at the same table also got up one after another, holding their wine glasses high and waiting for Zhang Songling, ready to drink Dingmeng wine with him
"This ......" Under the ardent expectation of everyone, Zhang Songling's body slowly began to heat up, and in a hearty battle like today, he wished he could come back countless times, however, at this moment, the cavalry of the Blackstone guerrillas was only half a company, and the 93rd Regiment was a newly promoted A regiment with a total strength of 2,500 brothers, but he was begging to form an alliance with more than 60 cavalrymen, no matter from which point of view, this matter was not normal
Just when he didn't know how to tactfully return to the absolute side, Fang Guoqiang, who had been hinting at him to be vigilant before, suddenly smiled and said loudly: "Team Zhang, since Commander Qi looks down on our guerrillas so much, I think you might as well take everyone to see it for a long time, but ......"
After a pause, he raised his voice a few more points and emphatically emphasized: "But we have to send a telegram to the military sub-district for instructions first, and we can't make decisions on our own."
"Of course, of course," I didn't expect that Fang Guoqiang, who he thought was more difficult to deal with, was relieved first, and the regiment commander Qi was overjoyed, and immediately agreed, "We are all soldiers, of course the rules in the army can't be ambiguous, do you bring the radio, if you don't bring it, just use our 93rd regiment's After eating, you can immediately go to your boss to ask for instructions."
"Actually, it is to prepare a case on the leader's side, and everyone knows about the affairs of our Eighth Route Army, as long as it is a little devil, the leaders will definitely give their full support" quietly kicked Zhang Songling's heel under the table, and Fang Guoqiang continued to take care of everything
"Yes, as long as the action plan is reasonable, the superior leaders will definitely give support," although Zhang Songling didn't know why Fang Guoqiang's attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn, he still gave the latter the greatest degree of cooperation "But ....."
"But what, what are the difficulties on Captain Zhang's side, you might as well say it directly, if it can be solved, our ninety-third regiment will definitely do our best to help solve it" Regiment Leader Lao Qi was made his heart twitch by Zhang Songling's behavior of only saying half of his words, and forcibly suppressed the urge to press the other party against the wall and beat him loudly
"Actually, it's not a big deal, especially for your department, it's easy to solve it," Zhang Songling scratched his scalp in disdain, and the side of his personality influenced by his parents was immediately exposed, "We didn't bring so much food and ammunition with us this time, I'm afraid we won't be able to support the next battle, and ......"
"The food supply is the same standard as our 93rd Regiment According to the capitation, you can just report the number The same is true for the ammunition" Lao Qi waved his arm arrogantly and interrupted loudly, "There are also two seizures in the past two days, two families are divided into three and seven, you guerrillas take three, we take seven, and the battle in the future will be the same."
"Then I'll thank Captain Qi for his kindness first," Zhang Songling hurriedly smiled and threw his hand at Lao Qi, knocking the "oral contract" like a deal, "I won't tell you that the new brother hasn't received a gun yet, this time, I finally don't have to have a headache."
"What is there to thank you for your guerrillas today, so naturally you should have taken a copy of the seizure "I have just been promoted to a regiment, Lao Qi is a little wealthy, and he doesn't bother to compete with Zhang Songling at all, "In addition, I will give you five more turntable machine guns to strengthen the firepower of the cavalry under your command" (Note 2)
Zhang Songling behaved more and more like a small trader, and continued to bargain with him cheekily, "The ammunition for that kind of machine gun is more difficult to find, if Commander Qi really takes care of us, can you change it to a Type 97 mortar and grenadier canister?"
"I don't have a few ninety-seven styles in my hands," Lao Qi was a little unable to adapt to the little family spirit he suddenly exposed, frowned, and responded in a low voice, "But it shouldn't be a problem to squeeze out two of them for you first, and there are three left, I'll use a grenadier for you to make up two grenadiers, and one door is a ninety-seven style, you see if it's okay."
"No problem, I've thanked you here in advance," Zhang Songling immediately raised his glass and drank all the wine inside
The officers of the 93rd Regiment hurriedly toasted with each other to celebrate the conclusion of the agreement, and then asked the orderly soldiers to help pour the wine to the brim, and continued to surround Zhang Songling and Fang Guoqiang to drink and talk happily, and the celebration banquet was so happy that it was not until the sun went down that it was over, and they staggered back to the tent to rest
The camp of the guerrillas and the camp of the 93rd Regiment were not mixed together So everyone needs to walk a long way Blowing in the face of the expected cold wind Zhang Songling's brain quickly recovered his ability to think Turned his head and glanced at Zhao Tianlong, who was also full of doubts, Then he quietly slowed down and pulled Fang Guoqiang's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Dafang, what the hell is going on, why did you suddenly change your mind Just now, I actually hinted that I agreed to Lao Qi's request first."
"Last winter, Fu Zuoyi led his troops to sneak for more than 400 miles, and suddenly took Baotou, and then took the initiative to evacuate, and slapped the little devil hard," Fang Guoqiang did not answer his words directly, but smiled, and said with a mysterious face
That happened in mid-to-late December last year, because the results of the battle were outstanding, and it was once regarded as a key propaganda target by both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, so in Zhang Songling's heart, he was no stranger to the great victory in Baotou at all, but Baotou is located at the bend of the Yellow River in the western part of the Mongolian steppe, and it is more than 2,000 miles away from Heishizhai, and he really can't see that the great victory in Baotou achieved by Fu Zuoyi's department has any inevitable connection with his own side
But Fang Guoqiang's next words made him feel like an initiation, "The Japanese devils regarded this battle as a great shame After the beginning of spring, they launched a large-scale retaliation Thousands of cars, dozens of tanks, and a large number of planes launched an attack from the sky and the ground at the same time, and the soldiers pointed directly at Wuyuan City, the old camp of General Fu Zuoyi, At this time, the 93rd Regiment did not return to the starry night, but rushed to the side of Dongmeng, isn't their purpose very clear?"
"Wai Wei to save Zhao is a typical strategy to save Zhao from Wei "Even if he didn't study any military school, Zhao Tianlong immediately figured out the true purpose of the 93rd Regiment Destroying the Kodama Squadron I am afraid that it was not in the plan of the 93rd Regiment Originally, but the two sides met head-on, and the 93rd Regiment did it easily, However, the real purpose of their eastward advance this time was neither to deal with Kodama Moji, nor to fight the idea of Black Rock City, their real purpose was King De's hometown, the Beizimiao area on the Xilin Gol grassland At present, several Mongolian cavalry divisions in the hands of King De are following behind the little devil to attack Wuyuan, and the defense force in the Beizimiao area is as fragile as a piece of papyrus, and the 93rd Regiment will definitely be able to poke a huge hole in it
The nest is the foundation of the German king's life, if he loses the nest, his financial resources and military resources will quickly face the situation of drying up, and there will be a large number of people within the so-called Mongolian and Xinjiang United Autonomous Government, who will be eyeing his position and ready to replace him at any time
Therefore, as long as the banner of the 93rd Regiment of the 31st Division of the National Revolutionary Army shines on the Xilin Gol grassland, even if it cannot attack the Beizimiao area, King De will have to draw a large number of troops from the front line and turn back to fill the hole in the starry night, and the military spirit of the puppet Mongolian cavalry will also be seriously hit by the sudden change
After all, Fang Guoqiang has just come down from the military division, and Fang Guoqiang has far more information than Zhao Tianlong and Zhang Songling, and the question is more comprehensive, "The 93rd Regiment is indeed trying to include our guerrillas under its banner, and after today's battle, I am afraid that our cavalry will never forget it, but the main purpose of their trip is not to the guerrillas, and compared with the strategic goal of encircling Wei and saving Zhao, I am afraid that annexing the guerrillas is a dispensable trivial matter, so I think we might as well turn the passive into the active and actively cooperate with the 93rd Regiment's battle plan to blitz the Beizi Temple Earn their true respect with their performance in battle, and then push them to give up those unrealistic ideas."
Note 1: The German-made 1005-caliber cannon is a 100-5 caliber LEFH18 weighing 2 tons and is a light howitzer that can be dragged forward by horse
Note 2: The turntable machine gun, that is, the Gegalev light machine gun mentioned above, was named because the magazine was disk-shaped, and was finalized in 1927 In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, with the flow of aid materials into China, some units of the National Revolutionary Army were equipped with a large number of equipment
