Chapter 138: History is always strikingly similar
Jiang Shan took the first squadron of the Falcon Special Operations Brigade and was surrounded by devils again!
To be honest, being besieged by devils is nothing new in Falcon. From the first line of the sky to the present, with the addition of other bits and pieces of battles, it has become commonplace to have a group of devils squatting around the falcon. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info in the words of Jiangshan, there is no itch if there are more lice, and there is no worry about more debts. Anyway, sooner or later, I'm going to have to fight the devil, and I don't care about a few more.
But this time, even Jiang Shan himself felt that things were a little big. Because the devil who surrounded their squadron was the 21st Brigade of the Itagaki Division and the Sakamoto Brigade.
Speaking of which, I am an old acquaintance with this Fifth Division. At the beginning of the East China battlefield, Jiang Shan led the Falcon team to give the old devil Itagaki Seishiro eye medicine, and Itagaki Seishiro also remembered this special operations team that had made a lot of trouble for himself. The two of them were like a pair of happy enemies, and they were entangled all the way to the battlefield of the Battle of Wuhan.
The 5th Field Artillery Wing suffered heavy losses, and the closest Japanese unit to it was the 21st Brigade of the Itagaki Division. The brigade commander, Major General Shun Sakamoto, received an order early in the morning from the commander of the Second Army, Shunroku Hatata, to make sure that this hateful Falcon Special Operations Group was left behind!
Sakamoto Shun, who received the order, first had a burst of secret joy in his heart, this is an order personally issued by the commander of the six heads of the hata Shun Liu, which shows that he still has a certain impression in the Hata Shun Six Grand Prize, as long as he fights this battle beautifully, then it is not a trivial matter to be caught in the future?
But after the joy, Sakamoto Shun's heart was shrouded in a layer of dark clouds. Three days have passed, and this mysterious Falcon Special Operations Brigade is still a dragon, and there is no trace of it at all, as if it has disappeared out of thin air. If it weren't for the fact that the Fifth Wing of Field Artillery was seriously damaged, and the artillery pieces turned into piles of scrap metal, he would probably think that this was an illusion.
Those idiots in the intelligence department of the Imperial Army really deserve to apologize one by one! Sakamoto Shun cursed in his heart. As a last resort, he had to resort to the most stupid method - constantly sending reconnaissance troops to find out the traces of the Falcon Special Operations Team!
After losing five or six search teams in succession, Sakamoto Shun was finally able to basically determine that the Falcon Special Operations Brigade was currently operating in the area of Xiaogushan, 80 kilometers west of Hankou!
Without further ado, Sakamoto Shun immediately gathered his troops, and his three infantry brigades, an artillery squad, and a cavalry brigade poured out of the nest and personally led the team to Xiaogushan, trying to complete the battle and annihilate the Falcon Special Operations Brigade.
In fact, after severely damaging the Fifth Wing of Field Artillery, Jiang Shan wanted to return the same way with the team. However, he made such a big move this time, and he had already alarmed the Japanese army. The Japanese front-line troops in the direction of Hankou immediately divided into two wings, and moved closer to the direction of the fifth field artillery wing in the starry night, trying to kill the Falcon Special Operations Brigade. In desperation, Jiangshan had to take the team to constantly fight, fighting all the way, until he arrived at Xiaogu Mountain, and then he took the advantage of the terrain and temporarily stood up.
Now that a brigade of the Japanese army is attacking, Jiang Shan also feels that he has no bottom in his heart, and Liang Jianbin suggested in a low voice: "Do you want to send a report to the headquarters of the commander of the fifth theater and the surrounding national army units for help?" Jiang Shan pondered for a moment and said categorically: "Send a report, use the public frequency." A whole brigade is not something we can eat! Liang Jianbin hurriedly ran towards the communication platoon.
In order to completely annihilate the falcon, Sakamoto Shun can be described as painstaking. Although according to the follow-up feedback, the opponent only has about 500 people, which is not as many as his own brigade. However, this Chinese army obviously cannot be dealt with by common sense, and the ordinary imperial army cannot take advantage of them at all, and any opponent who underestimates them is without exception. The 5th Field Artillery Wing and the light aircraft carrier Longxiang, which sank at the bottom of the Yangtze River, are the best examples.
The Japanese troops of the three wings marched in unison, advancing in a dragnet style, maintaining a reasonable distance from each other and unimpeded communication, so as to prevent them from being broken by each one because of their rash advances. For all the areas that have been searched, they will be governed with an iron fist, even at the expense of the three-light policy. Sakamoto Shun was ruthless, he finished his work in one battle, and achieved his goal in the first battle, so he could show his face in the army base camp.
The Japanese army rushed violently, and a fierce battle was inevitable. Everyone couldn't help but be a little worried, but Jiang Shan had his own thoughts: since the Japanese army was coming directly at him, why couldn't he take advantage of the Japanese army's impatience and use himself as bait to lure the enemy deep and eat this Japanese army.
After telegraphing his thoughts to the Fifth Theater Commander's Department, Li Zongren replied for a long time: "Do you know how much pressure the falcon has to bear in this way? You must know that you are facing a brigade, and in peacetime, the national army must face at least one brigade! If you fail, then the Falcon Special Operations Team will not even have a chance to turn over. ”
Jiang Shan could hear the concern in Li Zongren's words, which made him feel a little warm in his heart. No matter how Li Zongren behaved in the civil war in the future, at least during the Anti-Japanese War, he was still an iron-clad man. However, this is not the time for children to grow up, the 21st Brigade is coming, which is both a challenge and an opportunity, and the key is to see if your falcon can withstand it. The fighter is fleeting, and there is simply no time to hesitate.
"Telegraph to Commander-in-Chief Lee. When it is broken, it is broken! It takes time to move troops and prepare for battle, and material preparations are also very tight now, so we have to make a decision early. The attack of a brigade of the Japanese army is a severe test for the Falcon Special Operations Brigade, but for the entire pattern of the Battle of Wuhan, the 21st Brigade cannot afford to make much of a big flower, as long as it is quickly resolved, it can still eat it. ”
After Jiang Shan explained his thoughts in detail, in the end, as if he had made a lot of determination, he added a sentence after the telegram: "As for how long the Falcon Special Operations Brigade can hold up...... he thought about it carefully, and said loudly: "Five hours!" I promise the falcon will last at least five hours! ”
After reading the telegram, Li Zongren finally made up his mind and grabbed the phone at hand: "Inform me to go down, all units are ready for battle, and the commanders above the regiment level will come to the headquarters for a meeting!" A flash of color flashed in the adjutant's eyes, and he responded loudly: "Yes! He turned around and ran down. If Jiang Shan was here, he would definitely laugh dumbly, this kid is also a warmonger!
On the eve of the big war, tension was in the air. There was calm on the battlefield under the cover of night, and the veterans were silently wiping their weapons, ensuring that their brothers could give them the most reliable support on the battlefield; The recruits silently gathered together, their eyes blank and not knowing what they were thinking, and some even trembled unconsciously.
Soon, this brief silence will be shattered, and blood and fire, fear and death will envelop the place. According to the reconnaissance unit's estimates, in a maximum of one hour, the forward units of the 21st Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Army will come into contact with the Falcon Special Operations Group.
Around Jiangshan, the 44th Independent Brigade of the 42nd Army of the National Revolutionary Army, the 31st and 110th Divisions of the 30th Army, the 6th Division and the 52nd Army of the 75th Army, and the 4th Artillery Regiment of 110,000 people have been tied into a huge pocket, just waiting for Sakamoto Shun to rush in. The first squadron of the Falcon Brigade in Xiaogushan is the bait placed at the mouth of the bag, and it depends on whether Sakamoto Shun has the ability to swallow it.
The combat order issued by the Fifth War Zone to Jiangshan is that it must be held for 8 hours!
Jiang Shan and Liang Jianbin led people to patrol the position back and forth, and the soldiers were nervous before the big war, which is understandable, in fact, they are heavier than the burden of the soldiers, after all, it is related to the net worth and lives of more than 500 soldiers of the entire First Squadron, and even the entire Wuhan Battle and even the overall pattern of the battlefield in Central China. The burden was too heavy for them not to be nervous. However, this tension should not be visible to the fighters, so as not to increase the psychological burden of the fighters. The two of them couldn't sit still in the headquarters, so they had to take the time to wander around the position.
Tian Xiaoniu was fiddling with his rifle in front of the bunker, Jiang Shan shook his head and smiled, when he first saw him, this half-grown child was still holding the old Hanyangzao, and his body was as thin as a little bean sprout. It's only been four or five months, Tian Xiaoniu's body has become stronger, his complexion has become tanned, and his face has more tenacity that does not match his age.
"Maverick, are you afraid?" Jiang Shan walked up to him and sat down, and asked with a smile.
"Report to the captain! Unafraid! Seeing that it was Jiangshan, Tian Xiaoniu immediately stood up and shouted loudly.
"Sit down, sit down, the others are resting, don't disturb everyone." Jiang Shan sat Tian Xiaoniu in front of him, and said with a smile, "I'm just chatting with you, why are you so nervous?" It's not like that when you were following me on the front end, you were a little heel. ”
"Captain, I was young at that time, and I didn't know anything...... Tian Xiaoniu touched the back of his head and muttered quietly. The mountain wolf on the side "snapped" and patted him on the back of the head, and said with a smile: "Pull it down, you're a little bit now." Tian Xiaoniu smiled and said, "What is there to be afraid of." When did our falcons ever fear devils? ”
", the first time I killed someone, I almost peed my pants in fright. Are you more durable than me? Jiang Shan smiled and said, "If you're afraid, just say it, there's nothing to be ashamed of." The first time I fought a tough battle, I fought hard with devils, and there were few who were not afraid. ”
Seeing Tian Xiaoniu's face flushing, Jiang Shan stood up again, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "But let me tell you, the battlefield is so evil, bullets are specially selected for timid and fearful bullies." You're going to take it seriously, hey, it's going around you! So, when you go to the battlefield, you have to be bold and careful and listen to the command of your squad leader. Okay, let's get some rest. ”
Bidding farewell to Tian Xiaoniu, the two of them turned around the position again, the atmosphere before the war was really depressing, and in the end it was really boring, so they had to return to the command headquarters.
The night was peaceful, but it was rare for the country to be clean for a night.
The next day, Jiang Shan got up from the marching bed early, washed up, and was contemplating in front of the map after breakfast, when the fire fox hurriedly ran in.
"Captain, quick! The devil is here! ”
Jiang Shan did not panic, calmly dressed up, grabbed his gun and walked to the position. calmly said to the fire fox: "What are you panicking about, you are also a commander now, what do you think when you let the soldiers see it?" ”
Jiang Shan also thought about it, anyway, it is already this time, and what should come is always coming. Now, your fate is in your own hands!
Before coming to the position, Jiang Shan poked his head out and glanced around, his brows furrowed tightly: The mountains and fields are full of devils, and he can't count how many people there are. It's not easy to stay up for these 8 hours!
