Chapter 91: Change
Annihilated a squadron of the Japanese army, from Zhang Wei to the soldiers below, all rejoiced, especially those recruits who had just been replenished, after fighting the first battle of their lives, they were naturally excited, some of the soldiers were fiddling with Japanese weapons, some were cheering, of course, some took away the property on the corpses of the Japanese soldiers, for this kind of thing, Zhang Wei also turned a blind eye.
Qiu Wei walked over and said to Zhang Wei: "Company commander, kill a devil officer here."
Zhang Wei raised his interest, walked to the side and saw that it was the body of a squadron leader, two 79 rifle bullets hit him in the back, and he was lying on the ground in a strange posture.
Judging from the number of attacking Japanese troops, he is the leader, and he also carries a command knife, a telescope, a briefcase and a Wang Ba box in his hand.
For weapons, Zhang Wei didn't have much interest, he opened the briefcase, which contained some correspondence and military notebook paper, and also a few blank pieces of detailed battle report paper, this thing was used to record casualties after the war, and it is estimated that the devil would not have imagined that such a squadron would let Zhang Wei be annihilated.
At the bottom of the briefcase, there was a large pile of things stacked, and as soon as Zhang Wei opened it, he co-authored a large-scale map.
It really scared Zhang Wei, covering almost the entire Lunan region, and even going down to the villages, the small ports along the canal, it was really a long-term plot, Zhang Wei remembered that the maps he had seen in the 4th Division and Brigade Headquarters were not so detailed.
"Company commander, what should I do?" Qiu Wei asked. What to do with these things? Zhang Wei naturally has all the things on this officer, and the map will be used in the future, and the saber and briefcase are also proof of his own merits.
"What to do, take it all." Zhang Wei called the search squad and handed over the saber to the squad leader of the search squad for temporary safekeeping, he had captured a knife when he broke through in Nanjing, but unfortunately he had already lost it. This knife belongs to the squadron leader, it is not as good as the previous one, Zhang Wei pondered, why not give this knife away?
Leaving the corpse of this devil and looking at the officers and soldiers of the independent company cleaning the battlefield around him, Zhang Wei called the platoon commanders and announced the battlefield disposal specifications.
"The corpses of the devils are piled up on the side, the weapons, all the three or eight guns have been blown up by me, the grenades and grenadiers are all given to the mortar squad, and the captured crooked handles are given to the search squad." He Kun was stunned for a moment, "Company commander, what ...... So many rifles exploded? "If you don't blow it up, will you find me a bullet?" Zhang Wei said angrily, it is difficult to find the 65 bullets of the 38 big cover, not to mention that the troops are all people who are used to using 79 rifles.
Xu Yi carried his rifle and asked Zhang Wei what to do next, and Zhang Wei's meaning was very simple.
"After the troops cleaned up the battlefield, they entered the original position to continue to defend and rest, and the search squad went to report the situation to the rear, and all of them were on standby."
"Yes!" After dealing with the battlefield, the troops returned to their positions one after another. Zhang Wei returned to the command post and fell to the ground with his butt, such a long time of fighting really made him very tired, he killed a squadron alone, he actually did it, and it was really easy to be satisfied with the death of the military house.
"Grandma's, it's not easy!" Just when Comrade Zhang Wei was still rejoicing in his small achievements, the battle situation quietly changed. The crackling gunshots in Xiangcheng indicate that a battle has just taken place here, the bodies of several Chinese soldiers fell to the ground, and there are the same number of horses and two Japanese corpses on the side, just today, the cavalry regiment of the 13th Army on guard near Xiangcheng found the Sakamoto detachment that was attacking Taierzhuang, and the huge marching force of more than 2,000 people could not escape the surveillance of the cavalry regiment at all, and in this way, the reconnaissance unit of the cavalry regiment and the Japanese advance exchanged fire. When an emergency military situation is detected, it is natural to report it quickly, and the cavalry can retreat before they have time to take care of the corpses of their comrades.
"Drive, go, hurry back, report the situation to the regiment, why are there so many devils."
A cavalry platoon commander led the men back, and said to his men as he retreated. Most of the Japanese infantry were unable to pursue, and there was no need for this, and in their opinion, the Chinese army was not worthy of being killed by them. On the periphery of the city, along the line to Shaojiazhuang, about two companies of Chinese cavalry were patrolling, and the remaining main force of the cavalry, under the leadership of the regiment commander Li Zhishan, was on guard on the periphery of the city.
Li Zhishan waited anxiously on the horse, just now they had heard the gunshots, I don't know which platoon fought with the Japanese, more importantly, the Japanese actually appeared in this area, Li Zhishan also knows the battle situation, of course he knows where it came from, it must be the Linyi area. "Don't wait, except for the cavalry company directly under the regiment headquarters, all the rest will return to Shaojiazhuang."
The more you stay, the more difficult it is to get out, it is better to stay and wait at the regimental headquarters, the mobility is stronger, the officers under them did not refuse, and rushed to the area of Shaojiazhuang, where there are still troops of the 85th Division of the 89th Army, they want to inform them of the news.
Li Zhishan couldn't take the regimental headquarters and other cadres, so he decided to follow the original path of searching for troops to meet them.
"Go, go the way you are, and meet them." More than 100 cavalry responded and galloped forward, while on the other side, the search cavalry had already gotten rid of the Japanese and were looking for the main force of the regiment in the opposite direction.
The two sides soon saw each other, Li Zhishan pulled the reins, the horse howled, more than 100 cavalry stopped, saw their search cavalry coming, the officers and soldiers on the horse also raised their vigilance, and picked up the gun on their backs (infantry and cavalry).
When the group finally returned to the division, Li Zhishan immediately asked, "I met a devil, what's the matter?" "Tuanzuo, the Japanese Wuyang and Wuyang are here, there are 2,000 small people, and artillery, all from Linyi, we fought with the Japanese infantry, and three brothers died."
"Two thousand?" Li Zhishan didn't expect that there would be so much, and the horsewhip in his hand was whipped on the horse's buttocks fiercely and turned around.
"Oh no, go back to Shaojiazhuang, report it quickly, hurry up!" More than 100 people whipped the horses frantically regardless of horsepower, Li Zhishan had to hurry back and use the radio to report the situation to the army headquarters, this is more than 2,000 Japanese troops, enough to cause fatal damage to the Tang army and cause a rout of the overall defeat!
The Sakamoto detachment contained Zhang Zizhong's troops in Linyi with the strength of two brigades, and the rest of the troops all swooped down on Taierzhuang, and Zhang Zizhong still thought that the Japanese army on the opposite side was still the original strength at this time.
The upright Zhang Zizhong said in the telegram: "The enemy's fighting troops are the 42nd Wing of the Itagaki Division and the 6th ......Wing of Suzuki" On the road to the city, Sakamoto Shun sat in the armored car, looked at the huge team of marching troops and the advancing technical weapons, nodded with satisfaction, looked at the direction of Linyi and Taierzhuang, he smiled, the plan to hide from the sky and the sea, so successful, next, he had to concentrate on dealing with the Tangenbo army and the defenders of Taierzhuang.
"Order the troops, speed up, don't be intimidated by a few cavalry!"
