1094. Lay down the horse's mouth
At that time, General Xue Yue was only the commander of the group army, and he was not the top boss of the 51st Division and the 74th Army, but Wang Yaozu, as long as he was a big man in the army, he wanted to make friends.
This is understandable, as a person who has been in the army for so many years, as a general-level figure who has achieved the level of division commander, he must continue to develop in this circle, and the more friends he knows, the better.
At that time, General Xue relied on General Chen Cheng of the Department of Civil Engineering to rise up again, and General Chen sponsored General Xue in front of the chairman, and General Xue was able to be reused during the Anti-Japanese War.
General Xue, who has admired Yue Fei since childhood, finally has a place to use and a stage to realize his ideals and ambitions, and there is a general who dares to face the powerful and terrifying Japanese army, dare to attack the Japanese army, and dare to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army.
After General Xue established several brilliant military exploits, his position was gradually promoted from the commander of a group army to the commander of the ninth theater, directly facing the 11th Army, the largest and most elite mobile field army of the Japanese army.
The 11th Army of the Japanese Army undertook the task of destroying the most vital forces and attacking the main cities in the national control area, not the army composed of those garrison divisions, and the entire Japanese army headquarters and even the army unit with the most inclined resources in the base camp.
The Ninth Theater was fighting against the Japanese 11th Army, not only to hold the most critical strategic defense lines on the periphery of Chongqing, but also to maneuver with the Japanese 11th Army and eliminate its new force.
The current headquarters of the Ninth Theater is located in Changsha, Hunan, and the troops in Jiangxi, Jiangxi and northern Jiangxi are all under the command of General Luo Zhuoyin, which is also General Xue's return to General Chen Cheng.
General Luo is an important general of the civil engineering department, although General Xue is not from that faction now, for the sake of the War of Resistance, he will no longer mention his previous propositions, and will contact the Guangdong department to oppose Chiang.
These things, for Wang Yaozu, are still relatively far away, and he can't reach them, but before General Xue actually mentioned a small company commander under him, this matter made him feel very strange.
Later, I slowly learned that it was Luo Zhicheng who saved General Xue's life when he retreated from the Battle of Songhu, and Wang Yaozu wrote it down.
So, Wang Yaozu has been paying attention to this Luo Zhicheng, whether he inquired from the side, and found that Luo Zhicheng was also angry, and the combat courage and command were not bad, so he regarded it as the object of training, of course, he didn't say anything about it, and secretly supported it.
Otherwise, it would be so easy for Luo Zhicheng's troops to be replenished with the best personnel, weapons and ammunition, and many things would be done according to his own wishes.
Although the 74th Army is now a strategic army directly under the Military Commission, it is also working under the Ninth Theater, and the Ninth Theater Command is a superior department of the 74th Army, and General Xue is also Wang Yaozu's top boss.
In this case, Luo Zhicheng is even more critical, Wang Yaozu originally wanted to transfer Luo Zhicheng to the military department, but later found that this guy is still suitable for commanding operations at the grassroots level, and he is also suitable for training at the grassroots level.
From platoon commander to battalion commander so young and so quickly, although it mainly relies on Luo Zhicheng's own combat exploits and abilities, such a delicate relationship above is also influenced intentionally or unintentionally.
Wang Yaozu wanted to quickly promote Luo Zhicheng's position, but at present, it seems that this kid is not bad, he has already relied on his rocket-like promotion, and if he is promoted again, it will not only be bad, but it will hurt him.
First of all, it will cause dissatisfaction among Luo Zhicheng's colleagues and people at the same level, destroy his ecological environment and circle, and for his own growth, it is also promoted by pulling seedlings, which is not conducive to long-term growth.
Since the army commanders are so concerned about this grassroots officer, and the division commander Li Tianxia, a person with such an all-faced ingenuity, knows that there is a mystery in this, so when he was a brigade commander, he also gave Luo Zhicheng a lot of convenience.
As for the former boss Zhang Lingwu and the current direct boss Liu Guangyu, they both wore the same pants as Luo Zhicheng, needless to say, the feelings and trust established in the battle were made of iron.
Therefore, Luo Zhicheng has a lot of autonomy and flexibility in operational command, and his liaison with the regiment commander is also much more casual.
But now, in order to train subordinate company and platoon commanders, they still require everyone to do things according to regular procedures as much as possible, so that they will not go out to work under others in the future and be so casual and will kill people.
Now the 152nd Regiment saw that the third battalion had opened a gap on the Majiazui side, so it concentrated its troops to move closer to this side, preparing to cooperate with the third battalion to fight Luxia together.
As long as Luxia is knocked down, it will soon be at the city defense position downstairs in Fengxincheng, and once these peripheral positions are cleared, the pressure on the city defense troops will be great.
Because the battle of Majiazui was only a rout, and it did not destroy the living forces of the Japanese army, but only blew up two fortresses and a few machine guns, most of the Japanese troops withdrew from a small group.
Therefore, the number of Japanese troops under Luxia should be more than one squadron, and if it is in an encounter or an offensive battle, the third battalion is not afraid of a squadron of Japanese troops with its current combat strength.
However, if you want to attack the Japanese positions of a squadron in a fortified battle, especially in the absence of offensive weapons such as mountain artillery infantry artillery, it will definitely be enough.
Fortunately, this is not a high mountain and a big river, and if the Japanese army occupies a very favorable terrain, it will be difficult for a few thousand people of the entire 152nd Regiment to defeat the position of the Japanese squadron of 200 people.
Although the number of people on the battlefield is very necessary, it is not the decisive factor, and now for the third battalion, the key is the lack of offensive weapons.
The wet quilt wheelbarrow of the previous Jiulian was also a helpless move, but it could not be used again and again, especially when it came to the position under the reed, there were barbed wire, barricades, deep ditches, etc. at the front, and it was difficult for the wheelbarrow to push through.
In addition, the defenders of Luxia have more mortars, and even flat-fire guns, not 75 infantry guns, but 37 flat-fire guns, which are very useful for fighting tanks and ordinary fortresses.
There are almost no armored units or tanks in China, and only a very small number of experimental armored units like the Fifth Army are not capable of implementing them in the whole army.
However, the Japanese army still equipped some units with this kind of 37 flat-fire guns, mainly used to destroy fire points such as medium ** fortresses and machine gun nests.
When defending the position, in the face of the attack of the skirmishers, it is a bit wasteful to use this kind of 37 guns, and the effect is average, after all, it is difficult to capture such a small target as a moving person.
The soft-armored "armored car" wheelbarrow of the Ninth Company has now been known to the devils, and the Japanese army immediately called out a flat-fire gun.
The power of this thing, especially the veterans, knew that it was powerful, and if they didn't run, they would be blown up later, so this wheelbarrow immediately lost its effectiveness in front of the Japanese army's flat-firing guns.
At present, there are no weapons in the third battalion that can match the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery, so they can only stare dryly, but the regiment commander has already tilted his forces to this side, and he still has to attack upwards.
There is no way, you can only use the skirmishers first, the devil picks the door, and you should be reluctant to use a flat-fire gun to fight the skirmishers, needless to say, it is enough to deal with the skirmishers with a machine gun. 2k reading web
