Chapter 332: You must grit your teeth and persevere
After explaining the congratulatory meeting, Li Ziyuan ordered the three companies led by Ma Yongcheng over there to directly insert them into the waist of the entire formation of the Japanese puppet army with the cooperation of two heavy machine guns and three light machine guns. After simply assigning the task, Li Ziyuan called a few numbers and all of them to his side. Tell them that the battle will start in a moment, and blow all the trumpets on their bodies.
And after receiving the order, he had already looked at the congratulatory chapter in the hearts of the Japanese puppet artillerymen. He said directly to his subordinates: "Our company is an artillery company set by the detachment leader, but we don't even have a door gun, so it's a fucking infantry company." You can stand this situation, but I can't stand it. An artillery company without a single small cannon, what the fuck is an artillery company called? ”
"If you want a cannon, rush down with Lao Tzu. Take back the cannons of the devil and the second devil, all fucking back. Whether we can use real mortars to fight in the future, or continue to use wooden stakes instead of mortars for training, depends on your performance today. All give Lao Tzu the courage to defeat his little devils and take back their cannons. ”
Although He Huizhang has no culture, he is a veteran and is still far superior to ordinary recruits when learning certain things. Under the influence of Li Ziyuan and Ma Yongcheng, this guy not only learned something in terms of mobilization, but can even be said to be very set.
The troops, who had been marching and fighting continuously and were already quite tired, were suddenly boosted by He Huizhang's words. When the trumpet sounded, under the leadership of He Huizhang, who took the lead, he plunged straight into the artillery position of the Japanese puppet army like a steel knife.
The company that He Huizhang was carrying was teased by a few words from himself, and his eyes were red when he looked at the artillerymen of the Japanese puppet army under the mountain. Not only did all the cadres and fighters rush down, but even the lightly wounded rushed down with each other's support. Even the cooks and porters rushed down with kitchen knives and poles.
From top to bottom, this company now has one idea to take back the artillery of the devil and the puppet army, so that his artillery company deserves its name. In the future, there will definitely be no empty name for an artillery battery, but only two grenadiers that cannot guarantee the supply of grenades can be used.
Compared with the fierce attack and rush on He Huizhang's side, the company led by Ma Yongcheng over there was very cautious. Taking advantage of the main attention of the Japanese puppet army in front of them, they were all attracted by the sudden killing of He Huizhang, and it was not until they touched a distance of less than 50 meters from the enemy that the light and heavy machine guns suddenly opened fire.
Although Ma Yongcheng said that he was still fighting a war now, he was still a half-pulled shelf, but this guy's head is not an ordinary job. After the end of the Donglinkou battlefield, everyone else was busy collecting guns and ammunition. He asked people to rip off the military uniforms of the captured puppet soldiers and the military uniforms of the Japanese soldiers who were killed.
After Li Ziyuan made up his mind, he took the company he led to change into the military uniform of the Japanese puppet army in the shortest possible time, and successfully arrived behind the Japanese puppet army by fishing in troubled waters. The first knife was inserted into the joint of the Japanese puppet army, as well as the baggage and artillery positions behind the Japanese puppet army.
Ma Yongcheng, who suddenly opened fire when he felt a distance of 50 meters, did not expect that this friendly army was actually the Japanese puppet army of Li Gui, and was taken by surprise. The Japanese puppet army, which was originally eager to break through He Sanliang's blockade, was heavy in the front and light in the rear when arranging the troops. Behind the main baggage and ammunition, as well as artillery and heavy machine-gun emplacements.
The company commanded by Ma Yongcheng, who was wearing puppet army and Japanese military uniforms, was regarded as a Japanese puppet army reinforcing friendly troops from the strongholds of Hejiayu and Donglinkou, and was caught off guard by Ma Yongcheng's sudden attack. Without organizing effective resistance, it was defeated by Ma Yongcheng in one go.
The ammunition and baggage placed in the back by the Japanese puppet army were taken away by Ma Yongcheng at the first time. Not only did he lose two heavy machine guns in a row, but he was also taken down by Ma Yongcheng quite completely at the first time. The Japanese artillery also resisted a few times, and the puppet artillery saw the eight roads rushing from behind, and directly threw away the cannon and ran.
The 92 infantry cannon dispatched by the Japanese puppet army, together with two mortars and a large number of shells, as well as more than a dozen mules carrying ammunition and baggage, all fell into the hands of Ma Yongcheng. As a result, the He Huizhang who was beating and rushing over there, didn't expect it to be a late set early in the morning.
What does He Huizhang, who was pulled out of the first place, think, this is not what Ma Yongcheng should consider now. After taking a heavy machine-gun position of the puppet army, Ma Yongcheng handed over the command of this company to their company commander and instructor. He took the guards to turn the Jinzao heavy machine gun directly around the muzzle. Facing the Japanese puppet army in front, he pulled the plate machine fiercely.
With his heavy machine gun, he knocked down the Japanese puppet army from behind, who was killed from the flank in front of him. And the troops who killed from the back to the front, under the cover of his machine gun, successively broke through the three lines of defense hastily constructed by the Japanese puppet army.
The Japanese puppet army, which was attacked from both sides, was instantly beaten. And He Sanliang, who was fighting hard with the Japanese puppet army in the front, saw the reinforcements led by Li Ziyuan arrive, and organized the only remaining troops in his hands into two platoons, and the company commander commanded the company commander to go all out from the front and cooperate with the reinforcements to press over.
Considering the current strength on the battlefield, it is still a little insufficient to completely eat this Japanese puppet army, although He Sanliang did not have much hope, he also notified Zeng Sheng over there. It was hoped that Zeng Sheng would be able to bring his county brigade and rush over to participate in the battle to speed up the progress of the battle.
In particular, although the puppet army under the mountain has been disorganized, the Japanese army is still trying to assemble and is still trying to kill and struggle. The Japanese army's will to fight and military technology are not comparable to the puppet army, and once it is allowed to assemble, it will be a big trouble.
So although He Sanliang didn't have much hope, he still notified Zeng Sheng at the first time. And he quickly rushed to Li Ziyuan's location and joined Li Ziyuan. When He Sanliang arrived with reinforcements and launched a counterattack, he didn't see Li Ziyuan taking the lead in the charge, but he was a little relieved in his heart.
The mountain is now in a chaotic battle, and Li Ziyuan, who is the military commander, should not take the lead in the charge now, but stay in his command position. If Li Ziyuan still makes the same mistakes, it will not only be easy to cause them to fight separately on the battlefield. If that bullet doesn't last long and hits him, the troops below will be leaderless.
So after the reinforcements arrived, the first person He Sanliang looked for was none other than Li Ziyuan, who was always used to taking the lead in the charge. It wasn't until the reinforcements were launched on all fronts and he didn't see Li Ziyuan appear at the bottom of the mountain that he relaxed a little in his heart and went to find Li Ziyuan with his binoculars.
This time, Li Ziyuan did not take the lead and rushed down the mountain, but held a telescope and kept observing, and the battlefield under the mountain was already in chaos at the moment. It wasn't until He Sanliang rushed to him that Li Ziyuan put down the telescope in his hand. said to He Sanliang: "Did you inform Lao Zeng?" When will they be able to make it? ”
Hearing Li Ziyuan's first sentence was to ask Zeng Sheng when he would be able to arrive, He Sanliang opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just nodded slightly: "I've notified him, but I don't know when he will be able to arrive." ”
Seeing that He Sanliang was a little embarrassed when he answered, Li Ziyuan immediately guessed that the cooperation between He Sanliang and Zeng Sheng during this time was probably not very pleasant. Zeng Sheng's character, Li Ziyuan still knows it very well. This guy is stubborn, and most people are afraid that they can't move him.
Li Ziyuan, who knew that he didn't have much time left, turned to a communicator beside him and said, "You immediately rush to Wangjiagou and tell Captain Zeng that it is enough for him to leave a squadron there." The few remaining Japanese puppet troops in Wangjiagou can contain a county brigade, a full number of 1200 people, is he incompetent or is he a soldier who was beaten by devils? ”
"This time, I asked his county brigade to also participate in the war, not for him to pick up cheap and spectators. I don't want to listen to any explanation from him, but if he doesn't make it within half an hour, I will report to the sub-district truthfully and ask the sub-district chief to consider whether he is suitable to continue as the head of the county brigade. Remember, I told him all of these words. ”
The correspondent who received Li Ziyuan's order didn't dare to say anything when he saw Li Ziyuan's somewhat blue face, so he immediately turned around and rushed to the direction of Wangjiagou. Wait until the figure of the correspondent disappears around the corner of the mountain. Li Ziyuan did not ask He Sanliang where there was a contradiction between him and Zeng Sheng, but raised the telescope and observed the battlefield again.
After a while, he put down the binoculars and said, "Lao He, you have to speed up." We are fighting in full swing here, and the Japanese puppet army in other directions will definitely not sit idly by. The radio station of the Japanese puppet army has been taken away by Lao Ma, and it has lost the means to contact the outside world. ”
"But the situation on the battlefield between Donglinkou and Hejiayu, the remnants of the Japanese puppet army in Hejiayu's stronghold must have reported to Pingchuan and even Hubei County. The Japanese army did not have the habit of being in trouble with friendly troops and not moving like a mountain, and at the moment, the Japanese puppet army from other directions was rushing over to this side. ”
"There is a sub-district in charge of Ludong, so I'm not very worried. What I'm most worried about is the Japanese puppet army that is still behind us at the moment, that is, in Licheng. The speed of the Japanese army's mountain march, you still know. If the Japanese puppet army in Licheng falls behind us at this time, it will be passive on all fronts. ”
He Sanliang, who was also holding a telescope, heard Li Ziyuan's words, put down the telescope in his hand and nodded: "I think you must accept the battle within an hour." Lao Li, my idea is that we should not fight to the death with the Japanese puppet army here, and force them to retreat by themselves. ”
"The firepower of this devil is very strong, and the number of troops is a bit large for us. Fighting a war of annihilation is not appropriate for us. I still mean to intercept the puppet army, and as for the Japanese army, they are still looking for fighters in motion. The Japanese army here has more troops, and it is easy to cause serious casualties to us by fighting to the death. ”
He Sanliang still meant to make a quick decision, but Li Ziyuan shook his head and said: "The method you said is not bad, but the problem is that it is a little late to adjust now." Now we are fighting with the Japanese puppet army, and Ma Yongcheng over there has blocked the retreat of the Japanese puppet army, so we have to grit our teeth and persist at this time. ”
"We have won this battle, and at least in a short period of time, the problems in Hubei can be effectively alleviated. At the very least, it also contained the encroachment tactics of the Japanese army and threatened us in the future. Lao He, there are some things that you can't reduce if you want to reduce casualties. ”
