Chapter 161: Jungle Operations
The so-called military order is like a mountain, even if Li Siwei only gave a very unreliable reason - "Lao Tzu wants to eat game at noon", Liao Heiniu and Huang Hua had to organize their team and hurriedly march to the mountain.
Macheng is located in the southern foot of the middle section of Dabie Mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides, the east, west and north three mountain ranges are connected, the peaks are protruding, the terrain in the territory has both plains, hills, mountains and waters, there is the saying of "seven mountains, one water and two fields".
Baiguo Town is east of Guifeng Mountain, the hills in the town are undulating, the mountains and forests are reckless, Huanghua and Liao Heiniu led the team all the way to the southeast and marched to the southeast from time to time.
"Battalion Commander Liao," Huang Hua hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth, "Let's let the brothers stop for a moment!" ”
This time, Liao Heiniu was very refreshed, turned around and yelled, "Brothers, stop!" Listen to Instructor Huang! ”
Huang Hua was stunned for a moment, but saw that Liao Heiniu had already turned around, with a wry smile on his face, "Huang Laodao, you can say anything, Lao Tzu will listen to you." Otherwise, Li Cannon would have to give the order to change the training plan! ”
Huang Hua smiled, "The head of the regiment is a patient, and his temper will inevitably be bigger than usual......
Liao Heiniu waved his hand, "Lao Tzu knows!" Just say how to practice! ”
"Done!" Huang Hua nodded, turned around and looked around at the brothers, "The platoon commanders of each company come to the front!" ”
"Yes!" The platoon commander of a cadre company agreed, trotted forward, and quickly lined up, all of them wet and emitting moisture under the scorching sun...... A sudden change in their training plan is bound to make them suffer more!
"Good!" Huang Hua nodded, "Since the regiment commander has made me this instructor, then I'll talk about this jungle operation first!" As he spoke, he took out the pamphlet from his bosom, flipped through a few pages, then paused and read it accordingly, "The so-called jungle warfare is nothing more than using the terrain to set up ambushes, conceal, stealth, surprise attacks, and encirclement. The ambush is like a hunter and a beast, interlocking without a trace; Concealment should be like wood and stone entering the forest, blending in with the environment, so that the enemy can be found without a trace; Stealth should be like a snake walking in the mountains and forests, silently, leaving the enemy defenseless; A surprise attack should be like a tiger descending from a mountain, leaving the enemy powerless to fight back; The encirclement should be like a pack of wolves preyding, attacking from all sides, so that the enemy is tired of parrying. ”
After reading this, he raised his head and looked around at everyone, but saw that everyone was at a loss...... That's not even about training!
Liao Heiniu sneered, "Huang Laodao, the head of the regiment only wrote this?" ”
Huang Hua nodded, "That's all the regiment commander wrote...... However, the special service company has already found some ways to train them. ”
As always, Li Siwei asked, Huang Hua found a way, and the special service company groped for training!
Liao Heiniu perked up, "What's the matter?" Just say it! ”
Huang Hua shook his head, turned the page forward, and continued to read, "Jungle combat training, when the anti-poisonous insects and snakes, mosquitoes and anti-abuse ......"
Reading, he suddenly paused and looked at Liao Heiniu, "Camp Commander Liao, let's start here!" ”
"Good!" Liao Heiniu nodded hurriedly, "You can do whatever you say!" ”
He also understood that this jungle combat training was not easy, and it would be safer to listen honestly to the yellow.
Huang Hua secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it would be easy for Liao Heiniu to be honest and obedient, "Okay!" First, the anti-poisonous insects and snakes are discussed...... Brothers in straw sandals and shorts can't train! ”
Everyone was stunned and shouted, "The recruits are all wearing straw sandals, they only have straw sandals...... Shorts...... We're all wearing shorts! ”
Huang Hua shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That'...... We'll have to do the rest of the training first. As he spoke, he looked down at the booklet again and read it, "In jungle warfare, you should be able to distinguish wild vegetables and fruits, and know how to obtain supplies from the mountains and forests......"
Reading, he paused and looked around at everyone, "Today, let's practice the method of getting supplies from the mountains and forests." ”
Everyone was stunned, but Liao Heiniu was moved in his heart, and laughed hehehe, "Huanghua, your turtle has gone around in a big circle, isn't it just to let Lao Tzu hunt game for the head of the regiment and his brothers!" ”
"That's right!" Everyone was suddenly in high spirits, "This training is good!" This training is comfortable! ”
Huang Hua smiled and shook his head, "Brothers, this training is not easy!" I'll show you wild vegetables and fruits, but what about the game...... You'll have to do it yourself, and don't use guns! ”
Everyone was stunned, "No guns?" ”
Huang Hua nodded, and felt out the short dagger on his waist with his backhand, "Use this!" When you enter the mountains and forests, this is your most handy weapon! ”
In jungle warfare, gunfire is the culprit that exposes the target! Using a knife is the basic skill of jungle warfare!
Liao Heiniu smiled, his big hand brushed his waist, and the short dagger was already in his hand, "It's been a long time since I've been working, Lao Tzu really thinks about it!" ”
It was a Hanyang-made bayonet, and like Li Siwei's one, it was brought out on the front line of Dachang - the night attack on Yedianji, Liao Heiniu used it to show his might! Later, he fought more in the frontal battlefield, but this knife was used less.
At the headquarters of the 66th Regiment, Li Siwei was sitting at the table, also wiping his short dagger with a focused face.
Lu Tiesheng walked over with a document, "Commander, I want you to sign it...... Hey? Commander, your knife is so brightly polished, it looks so sharp! ”
Li Siwei gently inserted the short dagger back into his waist, and sighed softly, "It's sharp, but it's sharp, but I haven't drunk blood for a long time......"
"Hehe," Lu Tiesheng hurriedly shook his head and put the document in front of Li Siwei, "You are the head of the regiment, how can you use this!" ”
Li Siwei took out his pen and wrote on the document, "Hehe, Tie Sheng, whether you can use this knife and gun now or not, you must wipe it from time to time...... Otherwise, when you really want to use it, it will be too late to wipe it again. ”
As he spoke, he took the pen, picked up the document, and handed it to Lu Tiesheng.
Lu Tiesheng hurriedly took the document with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, head of the regiment, my knives and guns are also polished!" ”
As he spoke, he sighed again, "It's just that this short spear can't hit as far as the brothers' spears......"
Li Siwei glanced at him, "Hehe, you turtle is still thinking about going to the next company!" ”
Lu Tiesheng smiled, "I don't have to go down to the company, I just want to ...... I want to wear a spear......"
Li Siwei smiled and shook his head, "You turtle don't want to think about what you look like dangling around the regiment headquarters office with a spear on your shoulder?" Rest assured, when you practice shooting, you will have a spear to use. ”
Lu Tiesheng perked up, "Regiment Commander, when will I participate in shooting training?" ”
Li Siwei smiled, "When Chen Mingde's training is over, you will go!" ”
"Okay!" Lu Tiesheng agreed, his face full of joy, "He's been gone for three days, and it's time to end it......"
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Tie Sheng," Li Siwei stopped him, "Is there a battle report?" ”
"Battle report?" Lu Tiesheng was stunned and shook his head, "It seems that the entire war zone is not ready for war......
"Really?" Li Siwei frowned slightly, "The little devil is also entangled in malaria?" ”
As early as the beginning of the Battle of Wuhan, the Japanese invaders had three options for their offensive route: westward along the Yangtze River, westward along the Pinghan Line, and southward along the Jinghan Line. However, after the Huayuankou embankment burst, a yellow flood area was formed in eastern Henan, northern Hubei and northwest Anhui, and the Japanese invaders' plan to go south along the Jinghan line came to naught. And along the Pinghan line to the west...... Nine out of ten of the roads in northern and eastern Anhui were washed out and destroyed, and it was difficult for the Japanese to assemble, and the terrain along the Pinghan Line was dangerous, so the chances of winning along the Pinghan Line were not great if they went west. As a result, the Japanese had no choice but to trace their route to the west of the Jiangxi in order to give full play to their superiority in joint operations by land, sea, and air, while the advance of the Sixth Division was blocked in the hidden hills, and the men and horses of the headquarters were also unable to make a trip in Hefei because of malaria's rampant raids and serious attrition, so there had been no major fighting in the entire Fifth Theater for some time.
At this time, at Hukou, the vanguard of the 26th Division, the Botian Detachment and the 106th Division had been engaged in a short battle at the Yinjiashan Pass, seven kilometers east of the city.
The 26th Division received the order and immediately set off to collect ships to cross the lake to the north. The forward troops hurried to the Yinjiashan Pass to set up defenses and strengthen the fortifications, and encountered the defeated and retreating naval officers, and the pursuing Botian detachment and the 106th Division, so the fortifications had not yet been reinforced, and the follow-up troops were still in the middle of the crossing, and a major battle began.
As usual, the Japanese invaders first fired a heavy artillery fire on the road in front of the pass, detonating the mines planted by the defenders, and then bombarded the high ground on both sides of the road, until the sand and rocks flew and the fireworks were churning, and most of the fortifications were blown down, and the defenders were killed and wounded. The artillery fire did not stop, and the stormtroopers of the Botian detachment had already raised their spears and rushed towards the defenders' positions with great momentum.
The forward commander Takahashi Osa watched the battle in the formation with a telescope and smiled fiercely, "The imperial warriors are coming with victory, how can they resist it?" ”
Staff Officer Ono Nakasa was as cautious as ever, "Your Excellency, the equipment of the defenders on the opposite side is not bad, and it must not be an ordinary Shina army......
"Ono-kun," Takahashi Osa smiled, "don't be so cautious!" You have to have a lot of faith in the warriors of the Hata detachment...... In China, no army could withstand the offensive pace of the Hatian detachment! ”
"Hey!" Ono Nakasa had to nod, Major General Harata needed cautious staff to fill in the wings, but it didn't mean that he could give these staff members much of a voice! The Hatada detachment will always have wild blood in its bones!
The stormtroopers of the little devils rushed violently towards the defenders' positions without hindrance.
Two miles, 800 meters, 500 meters, 300 meters......
Victory is at hand.
At this time, the defenders' position was in shambles, the limbs were scattered, the corpses were stacked, the wounded were lying on the ground wailing in pain, and the surviving soldiers were holding their guns and looking closely at the little devils who were getting closer and closer......
Brigade Commander Zhu held the binoculars and looked at the little devil who was getting closer and closer, his face was tense, and his teeth were clenched...... 200 meters, 150 meters......
"Hit!" A loud shout resounded through the position, and Brigade Commander Zhu had already put down his binoculars, picked up his spear, and "bang......"
"Click......
"Bang ......"
On the defenders' positions, the sound of gunfire shook the sky, and the bullets rained down on the little devil's stormtroopers like locusts.
"Ahh......hh
The screams came and went, and the little devil's stormtroopers stagnated...... The defenders still had such a lot of firepower, but why did they fire now?
How did they know that the 26th Division was able to hold the big position with such a way of fighting! As for Li Siwei's later "turtle" tactics, this is where they come!
"Yaga!" Takahashi Daisa's smile froze, and his face turned into a face full of anger, "Retreat!" Fall back...... Prepare for shelling! ”
However, in the blink of an eye, nearly half of the stormtroopers were killed and wounded!
The little devil's stormtroopers retreated into the formation in a panic, and the observation balloon had been raised behind the formation, and a field cannon was ready to go! A bitter battle was inevitable, because on the opposite side was the 26th Division.
With Li Siwei's level, he had no ability to understand the battle situation in the Ninth War Zone.
At this time, he was standing at the gate, looking at Liao Heiniu and Huang Hua, with a smile on his face, "Turtle, you are amazing!" Even Lin Lu has come back for Lao Tzu! ”
Liao Heiniu smiled, "Don't you turtles want to eat game, Lao Tzu will let you eat enough!" ”
Li Siwei froze for a moment, glaring at Liao Heiniu, "Turtle'er, Lao Tzu just wants you to understand that special training is not simple......"
Liao Heiniu waved his hand and pouted, "Hehe, it's not so difficult!" ”
Li Siwei shook his head helplessly, "Okay, Lao Tzu will go to see your swimming training in the afternoon......"
Liao Heiniu was stunned and smiled wryly, "This...... Isn't it too much of a rush in the afternoon! As he spoke, he hurriedly looked at Huang Hua, "Company Commander Huang, you haven't taught us yet!" Right? ”
Huang Hua couldn't help but smile, and nodded hurriedly, "Regiment Commander, although the swimming training is not very difficult, but, after all, it is a new training subject, so we have to give Battalion Commander Liao some time to familiarize themselves with it......
As he spoke, he looked at Liao Heiniu.
Liao Heiniu's face was slightly red, and he nodded again and again, "Yes, I need time to get used to it!" ”
Although he was strong, he also understood the difficulty of special training, after all, after half a morning of training, he just learned to distinguish wild vegetables and fruits and hunt ...... That's just getting started.
Li Siwei smiled, "It's okay!" I'll give you three more days...... After three days, Lao Tzu will see results! ”
"Yes!" Liao Heiniu's spirit perked up, "Cannon, don't worry, three days is definitely enough!" ”
Li Siwei nodded and sighed softly, "Black Bull, Lao Tzu is really running out of time......
Liao Heiniu was shocked, "Is there any new news?" ”
Huang Hua also looked at Li Siwei, his face solemn.
Li Siwei shook his head, "It's not enough...... Because of this, Lao Tzu has to hurry up! After all, Lao Tzu is a motherless child...... Where are you going next? Only God knows! ”
The two were silent...... The 16th Brigade is like a child without a mother, it has no fixed belonging, it is directly dispatched by the theater command, and it is transferred wherever it is needed! Now it is directly under the Fourth Corps, and it is impossible to say in the future!
"Okay," Li Siwei waved his hand, his spirits lifted, "I don't care where the fuck is going in the future!" Anyway, take the team first, and you can fight devils wherever you go! ”
"Yes!" Liao Heiniu and Huang Hua perked up, "As long as it's a devil, it's the same wherever you go!" ”
