"Our victory in Jiangyuan City this time has greatly increased the prestige of our Liberation Army. Since the little devils occupied Manchuria, there have not been a few locks and anti-Japanese armed forces who dare to attack the county town and dare to do this against the Japanese ghosts, so I say that our victory in Jiangyuan City is of great significance and far-reaching impact, so that the whole of Manchuria knows that we have such a heroic and warlike team in our territory. This is a great thing, and we are glad to congratulate you. Therefore, I would like to commend the three armies, all the brothers who participated in this battle must be recorded once, the wounded and those who performed well in the battle should be recorded twice, the brothers who died in battle should be recorded three times, and the Yinping battalion commander, the commander of the army, and the deputy commander of the Hua army should be given four meritorious service, and the meritorious service should be paid twice or more, and the meritorious service should be paid three times more than four times. The three of you go back to find out the situation, decide who should make meritorious service, how many meritorious deeds, be fair, and convince the brothers. Also, today is the memorial day of the fallen brothers, I want to lead the brothers to worship the fallen brothers, rest the souls of the dead, and Camp Commander Jiang will make arrangements. Also, and most importantly, our great victory in Jiangyuan this time has hurt little Japan, and it has also exposed ourselves, and little Japan will definitely retaliate against us, we have to be prepared, according to the location of our Tianjiao Ridge, it is most likely that Little Japan will attack us from the south and west, so I plan to send an army to the eagle's beak in the sixteenth mile south of Tianjiao Ridge to garrison, and send an army to Mopan Mountain in the eighteenth mile west of Tianjiao Ridge to garrison. If the devils come to attack Tianjiao Ridge, we can mobilize each other and form a pocket array to snipe them, so that the devils can't easily succeed. The three of you look at what else is going on, can you arrange it like this? "The commander-in-chief said a lot in one breath.
"That's fine, I agree. But in addition to these things, there are two things to do, the first is that the most important thing after the adjustment of defense is to pay close attention to repairing the fortress. The second is to pay close attention to training, you look at the offensive formation of other people's little devils, the combat ability of individual soldiers, we can't compare, I killed more than 30 brothers this time, so that the family fought miserably! If we want to change to our offense and other people's defense, I don't know what the result is. Therefore, we must pay close attention to military training, but we lack instructors, so we have to find a way. Said the Admiral.
"I agree with all of that. But I think we still have to find out a few evacuation routes and the locations where we will be evacuated, so that we can deal with the devils, and we can't just fight with the devils in this Tianjiao Ridge and put all the family resources in. Also, it's going to be winter, and we can't hide people in this big mountain, what should we do then? It's all got to think of it. Commander Xiao said.
"I also agree with the commander-in-chief and everyone. In addition to these, I would like to put forward a few points for the commander-in-chief and the commanders to give their opinions. One is that we are now the Manchurian Liberation Army, and the rules of the beard are no longer good. We have to have a set of our rules, such as not to disobey orders, not to harm women, not to harm crops, not to hide booty, not to gang up, not to retreat, not to drink and make trouble, and so on. The second is that we have to recruit our eyes and ears outside the mountains and set up more secret agents, otherwise we will hide in the mountains, and we will become deaf and blind, and we can only be beaten passively. The reason why Dulong Mountain has been undefeated for a long time is because they have more nests than if they lived on the mountain. The third is that we have to think of ways to make more money and go to the city to make money. With money, our provisions, our guns, our brothers' salaries, etc., will be settled. Fourth, we must search for talents, and we must think of capable people in all aspects to get him up the mountain. We also have to recruit troops extensively, and the more we fight, the fewer we fight, and it is difficult to deal with the Japanese devils for a long time. Fifth, we have to set up some departments like the government to take care of some things, or we will take care of everything, which is a bit chaotic. I think these are all things that we should do now. Yu Chenglong said.
"Okay, everyone's ideas are very good, we can't all settle down today, let's do some things first. I will not talk about the matter of commemorating the merits of the brothers and paying tribute to the brothers who died in battle, and the rest will be decided in advance: First, the naval commander will be transferred to defend against the eagle's beak, and the army commander Yu will be transferred to the anti-grinding mountain, and the military commander Xiao will expand the garrison in Tianjiaoling, and according to the advice of the naval commander, he will pay close attention to the construction of fortifications and the training of troops. Second, Commander Xiao sent people to find out all the mountains and rivers within a few hundred miles around Tianjiao Ridge and open up several evacuation routes. Third, Commander Yu led Battalion Commander Jiang to work out the regulations of the Liberation Army and the establishment of various departments of the Liberation Army. Fourth, the various armies selected and sent their brothers out of the mountains, divided into the east, south, and west to build contact points, and set up secret agents, and this matter should be safe, and they should look at the people, and pick those who have enmity with the Japanese and those who can find out the news, and they must be concealed, and they must all have one-line contact, otherwise if one of them is caught by the Japanese devils, they will have to lose a large area. Fifth, the admiral sent people to contact those small groups of anti-Japanese armed forces to win them in. That's all for today, let's split up. "The commander-in-chief finally made a decision.
Yu Chengchan selected ten brothers and went out to the mountains in groups of two to set up a contact point to find out the news. He ordered Deputy Army Commander Zhang to go to Mopanshan to inspect the construction of a new camp, and he went to Jiang Dazhu to discuss the new military regulations and other matters.
After about a month, the new camp of the Admiral and Commander Yu was completed. On the morning when the two teams left for the new camp, the commander-in-chief summoned the officers above the battalion commander to the open space in front of the commander-in-chief's hall to discuss matters and send off the two teams.
"Today, the Captain of the Navy and Commander Yu are going to take their brothers to the new camp to garrison, this is a major event for our Manchurian Liberation Army to expand its defense, and after the two armies arrive at the new camp, they must continue to strengthen the fortifications, step up military training, and be ready to prevent the little devils from attacking." The commander-in-chief said.
"Carry out the commander-in-chief's orders!" Everyone responded in unison. There are those who stand upright, those who clasp their fists, those who kneel on one leg, and those who bow with one hand.
"From today onwards, the new regulations of our Liberation Army will be implemented, and in the future, we will all salute our commanders and brothers in a straight posture, and we will not use anything else. This new charter was sent to all armies, and they should go back to their brothers to study hard and persist in their implementation. In addition, the Liberation Army should establish several departments, the purpose of which is to unify command and action, build our Liberation Army into a regular contingent, and lay a good foundation for future development. Now four departments will be set up first, one is the warhead, which is under the responsibility of the chief of the navy; the second is the Intelligence Department, which is in charge of Commander Xiao; the third is the Ministry of Money and Grain, because the army commander is responsible; Fourth, I am responsible for the unified command. The newly established departments are all located in Tianjiaoling, and the responsible persons are to form and recommend candidates, and report to the unified command for appointment. Brothers, take their own responsibilities, let's go! The commander-in-chief waved his hand and ended his speech.
"Carry out the commander-in-chief's orders!" Everyone stood up and saluted, and the Admiral and Commander Yu led their brothers away.
It's getting cooler, and the leaves in the mountains are starting to turn a little yellow. On this day, an undercover agent from outside the mountain reported that an infantry squadron and an artillery squad of the Japanese army, under the guidance of the Jiangdong Independent Regiment, drove in the direction of Tianjiaoling, with a total of about 700 people. Yu Chengchan ordered the secret agent to investigate again, report in time, and arrange for Deputy Commander Zhang to lead the team to immediately enter the state of combat readiness, and go to Tianjiaoling to report the situation to the commander-in-chief.
When I came to the Commander-in-Chief's Hall, I saw the Commander-in-Chief sitting next to a hand-drawn topographic map and pondering. The commander-in-chief waved his hand to Yu Chengchan, motioned for him to sit down, and then said, "I have informed the Navy Captain and Commander Xiao, they will be there in a while." You may also get the news that Wang Zhankui led his team and the Japanese devils to attack our Guangfu army. This time, the enemy dispatched a total of more than 700 people, and among them, an artillery team was specially sent to destroy our Tianjiao Ridge. Wang Zhankui's kid is too much of a thing, after he took refuge in the Japanese devils, Little Japan rewarded him with a regiment leader, what is the Jiangdong Independent Regiment, this time it must be his idea to bring the Japanese devils here. Little Japan didn't know the location and strength of our Tianjiao Ridge, he knew. It seems that the comer is not good, so we have to discuss it carefully and see how to meet the enemy. ”
After a short time, Commander Xiao and Navy Commander came one after another, and the people from the headquarters, the War Department, the Intelligence Department, and the Money and Food Department all arrived one after another.
"Everyone knows about it, the situation is urgent, let's see what we do, everyone will talk about their opinions." The commander-in-chief said.
"It is not yet possible to determine which direction the devil came from, but it is most likely to come from the south, because Wang Zhankui is familiar with this direction, and the eagle's beak cliff is only three or four hundred miles away from Dulong Mountain, and he must have explored this direction when he was in Dulong Mountain, and we also took this direction when we pulled it out of Dulong Mountain, so it is most likely to come from this direction. I suggest that the team move in this direction, and strive to annihilate them at the Eagle's Beak Cliff, so that the devil and Wang Zhankui can taste our strength. The brothers are all trained now, let's not be afraid of them, aren't there only 700 people, don't you have to call him back! The Admiral swore an oath.
"I think the Admiral's judgment is more accurate. My idea was to have the Admiral snipe in the front, and Captain Yu and I tried to knock the enemy away. If the enemy's combat effectiveness is too strong, when we can't withstand it, we have to prepare to retreat, and now we have to arrange a retreat route, and when the time comes, I will send someone to be a guide, we can't beat us, we can't hold on, the most important thing is to preserve the strength, stay in the green mountains, and don't be afraid of no firewood. That's what Beard did in the past, and we'll rebuild it when the territory is gone. Commander Xiao said.
Everyone was silent and looked up at the commander-in-chief. The commander-in-chief glanced at everyone, looked at Yu Chenglong and said, "Commander Yu, what do you think?" Tell you about it. ”
"Back to the commander-in-chief, I think we have to be ready to fight and withdraw. The devil came this time with a fire in his belly, and he would not retreat easily. I agree with the Admiral's judgment, but I mean let's fight the devil for a day, give him another surprise attack at night, and then lead the brethren to retreat. After two battles with the devil, I think the devil is not good at night fighting, nor is he good at defense, we have to seize his weakness, and withdraw after the fight, so that they can't find us, and he can't do it, after all, we have few people, and we can't fight hard. Yu Chenglong looked at the commander-in-chief and said.
"Well, everyone has their opinions, and I conclude that this time the devil must have come from the south. Not long after the establishment of our Manchurian Liberation Army, after the great victory at Jiangyuan, it has become famous and far-reaching. The little devil and Wang Zhankui came violently this time to destroy us in one fell swoop, and we must not let them succeed. If we win this time, we will have to shake Manchuria again, and our prestige will be established, and we can also attract more people with lofty ideals to come and defect. Therefore, we must muster up the courage to fight the Japanese devils to the end. Tell your brothers that if anyone disobeys the order and escapes from the battle, he will be punished on the spot! Now I order: First, all armies should prepare for battle on the spot, and then move after determining the enemy's accurate offensive route. 2. All armies should promptly send people to inquire about the news and report to the headquarters at any time. 3. The Ministry of Money and Food gave the brothers enough food and ammunition, and buried the rest on the spot. Fourth, the Ministry of Intelligence immediately drew up a plan for retreat and made preparations for retreat. 5. From now on, the command will deliver orders to all armies every half hour. 6. After returning home, the army commanders should make arrangements for their troops, do a good job of pre-war mobilization, and listen to orders at any time. The Admiral took all the personnel of the warhead with him, and if the enemy came to attack, he insisted on the defense, and did not attack rashly, but could send a small force from behind the mountain to harass the enemy's left flank and attack, and try to lead the devils into the western ravine of the Eagle's Beak Cliff. Commander Yu was ready to assist the Admiral from the west, and Commander Xiao was prepared to assist the Admiral from the front. Let's all go and get ready, and the meeting will be dismissed. "The commander-in-chief gave the order.
"Resolutely carry out the order!" And they stood upright and saluted, and dispersed and departed.
Yu Chenglong returned to Mopan Mountain, gathered the brothers together, personally conveyed the commander-in-chief's order, mobilized before the battle, arranged the team to fortify, and then came to the foot of the mountain that communicates with Tianjiao Ridge, waiting for the commander-in-chief's order.
Half a day and one night, the commander-in-chief sent people more than ten times, and the last time, the commander-in-chief ordered Yu Jackie Chan's team to quickly move closer to the eagle's beak cliff, saying that the devil and the Jiangdong Independent Regiment had determined that they had attacked from the direction of the eagle's beak cliff, and let Yu Chenglong act after hearing that direction.
At this time, the sky was already bright, Yu Jackie Chan returned to the mountain and asked the team to immediately light a fire to cook, and sent ten brothers to the direction of the eagle's beak cliff to meet with the twenty brothers sent yesterday to find out the news.
As soon as the meal was finished, the team was getting ready to go, and the brothers who had been sent to inquire about the news ran back to report that the devils and Wang Zhankui's men in the direction of the eagle's beak cliff had exchanged fire with the naval captain, and the battle was very fierce, and the enemy's artillery fire and attack were very fierce.
Yu Chengchan sent Deputy Commander Zhang to lead fifty brothers to go first, and he then brought people to arrive. He left ten brothers behind and said to them, "Hide the remaining grain and weapons on the mountain, and then guard the Mopan Mountain, if there is an enemy attacking, if you can't hold it, immediately retreat to Tianjiao Ridge, join the commander-in-chief, and listen to the command of Commander Xiao." ”
After the arrangement was completed, he led fifty brothers to chase after Deputy Commander Zhang. Halfway through, another brother came to report that the battle at Eagle's Beak Cliff was tight, the enemy's artillery fire was very fierce, and the brothers at Eagle's Beak Cliff suffered heavy casualties.
Yu Chenglong sent people to quickly contact Deputy Commander Zhang in front, and asked him to advance quickly, occupy the hill on the west side of the Eagle's Beak Cliff, attack the enemy from the flank, and support the Eagle's Beak Cliff.
When Yu Chengchan arrived with people, Deputy Army Commander Zhang had already exchanged fire with the enemy, and the gunfire was fierce. The two teams joined together and repelled the enemy's attack. Immediately, the devil's artillery fire also attacked their side.
"How's it going?" Yu Chenglong pulled Deputy Commander Zhang to a hidden place and asked him.
"The eagle's beak cliff on the opposite side is almost unbearable, thanks to our timely arrival. Seeing that the devil was being flanked on both sides, he divided his forces to attack us, but the attack on the eagle's beak cliff was still unabated. There are not so many devils, only more than 100 people. Wang Zhankui's independent regiment numbered more than 400 people, and they had already moved from the ditch in front to the back of the Eagle's Beak Cliff, preparing to attack from behind, but the Eagle's Beak Cliff was still dangerous. Deputy Commander Zhang replied.
"You are holding back here, and you can't let the enemy attack you no matter what. I took a detour to attack the devil's artillery position from the southwest, and when I succeeded, covered my retreat. If the devils don't have artillery fire, their offensive power will be weakened. As for Wang Zhankui's Jiangdong Independent Regiment, they won't really work hard, I think the commander-in-chief and Commander Xiao have already led the team in front of them, and when I come back, let's attack from behind, break them up first, and then concentrate on meeting the devils. Also, once the Eagle's Beak Cliff is lost, immediately prepare to retreat, and protect the guide sent by Commander Xiao, I will take people there. Yu Chenglong finished explaining to Deputy Commander Zhang in the sound of artillery fire, and led the more than 50 brothers he brought to touch the devil's artillery position from behind the mountain.
The artillery stopped, and the gunfire from Deputy Commander Zhang's position rang out fiercely again. Yu Chenglong led the team back to the devil's artillery position, two machine guns opened the way in front, and the brothers in the back fanned directly to the devil's artillery position. As soon as the devils finished firing, many people opened the cans on the spot and ate them, and the sudden attack caught them off guard, killing and injuring many devils. But they were well trained, and soon relented from the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions, and organized an effective resistance. Both sides launched a desperate stance, twisting together and fighting.
The battle was very fierce, and Yu Jackie Chan attacked left and right, leading his brothers to fight to the death with the devil. Finally, the devils began to retreat, Yu Chengchan asked people to blow up all the guns temporarily discarded by the enemy, and he took people and the retreating devils to fight hard for a while, before ordering the brothers to withdraw to the position where Deputy Commander Zhang was. This battle was fought fiercely, more than 20 devils were killed, and Yu Chengchan's brothers were also killed more than 10 people, more than 20 people were injured, and he was also slightly injured. At this time, the devils came to reinforce the arrival, Yu Chenglong and the brothers fought and retreated, and Deputy Commander Zhang also moved to this side to cover, and the two teams finally merged together.
The devil's attack slowed down, and Wang Zhankui's team over there had already stopped attacking and hid in the ravine. Yu Chenglong counted the number of people and asked the brothers to rest and eat some dry food. He selected more than 30 capable brothers and asked Deputy Commander Zhang to continue to hold his position.
"You lead the brothers to hold on here, don't attack, if you can't hold it, retreat and move in the direction of Tianjiao Ridge. If Wang Zhankui's Jiangdong Independent Regiment is crushed, he will inevitably rush up from behind our mountain and join the devils in front of the mountain. I led these thirty brothers to rush down the mountain, attack Wang Zhankui's team from behind, and if they can't succeed, they will withdraw to join you. Yu Chenglong said and led his brothers to the east along the mountain beam.
When he reached the back of Wang Zhankui's independent regiment, he led his brothers to rush down the mountain. At this time, the brothers led by Commander Xiao, who had been killed from the direction of Tianjiao Ridge, also rushed down from the mountain and faced Wang Zhankui's independent regiment head-on.
Suddenly, there were loud gunshots and shouts. Yu Chenglong led his brothers to rush into Wang Zhankui's team from behind, beating and rushing, regardless of Wang Zhankui's scattered deserters, he kept rushing forward. At this time, the admiral also led people to rush down from the eagle's beak cliff, Wang Zhankui was attacked on three sides, and he couldn't resist at all, or he didn't want to resist desperately, so he fled to the ravine to the north with his people in embarrassment, and he didn't care about the people who didn't keep up with the team.
