Chengde, in the headquarters of the independent regiment, the communications corps reported the latest news on the front line to Dongfang Yunming: "The regiment commander, the senior chief of staff reported that a total of more than 900 people from the 2nd Brigade of the 87th Wing of the Japanese Army were all annihilated in front of the position on the southern front by the 2nd, 3rd and 4th battalions of our regiment. Dongfang Yunming nodded lightly.

Zhang He had just returned from Fujiwara Takeo, a Japanese pilot who had been captured, and although the Japanese had not yet completely surrendered, Zhang He still saw hope for rebellion from his timid expression and young and immature face. As soon as he returned to the regimental headquarters war room, he heard the report of the signal corps, and joked happily: "Ho, our team is so powerful? Nearly 1,000 people in a brigade were annihilated, only 3 people were killed, and none of them were seriously injured. ”

Dongfang Yunming smiled and said: "If it is all this proportion, the Kwantung Army is indeed not enough for us to fight, but we have the advantage to fight like this." First of all, the Japanese army came back from the front line south of the Great Wall, and it was a long journey, while we waited for work; Second, the Japanese army has always pressed the squadron to fight in the previous battles with the Japanese army, and after a few months, no, it should have developed a bad habit of underestimating the enemy since '918'; third, the Japanese army's forward was all lightly armed infantry, and there was no heavy firepower, and their artillery could not keep up due to the restrictions of the terrain, but there were dozens of heavy guns behind our position, and the firing parameters were determined in advance; fourth, we know the establishment, commander, and weaponry of the attacking Japanese army. However, they did not know how many troops there were on our southern front position, and what kind of equipment they had, fifth, it was already dusk when the battle began, the visibility was reduced, and the Japanese planes could not rise into the air to fight, plus Xu Jinchuan killed the supreme commander of the Japanese offensive force, which led to the loss of command of the Japanese battlefield ”

Zhang He said thoughtfully: "Well, that's true, I think it's necessary for us to remind the soldiers on the front line that the troops must not be arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat, otherwise we will be the ones who will lose next time." ”

"That's right, it's really time to pour cold water on the soldiers on the front line, take Chengde, defeat the puppet army, and then this battle, our team is too easy to fight." Dongfang Yunming also nodded, and said to the communication soldier: "Send a report to the chief of staff and ask him to cool down the soldiers!" ”

"Yes!" The correspondent saluted and turned to the station.

In fact, there is no need for Dongfang Yunming to remind them, the dog-headed Lao Gao has already poured a scoop of cold water on them when he saw Feng San, Zhao Zhengwen and Xu Jinchuan who came back from cleaning the battlefield, and used the reasons that Dongfang Yunming said to Zhang He, so later the soldiers said that these two people were really good-hearted. That is, Gao Wenfeng was Dongfang Yunming's instructor when he entered the special forces, and many of Dongfang's outstanding skills were taught by him, the reason why both of them later had the rank of colonel, Dongfang Yunming was the brigade commander and he was the deputy brigade commander There is only one reason - education, as a young man, Dongfang Yunming just entered the special operations brigade and got a doctorate in strategy from the National Defense University, which made his old instructor Gao Wenfeng out of reach, and it was time for him to retire like Fan Tianlei, but God played a joke on everyone - crossing,Crossing has brought a certain degree of reverse growth of physiological age,Although psychologically there is also a regain of the blood of the year,But a person's realm will not regress because of the crossing,More than 20 years of scout and special forces career has made him develop a character that is not arrogant or impatient,So seeing the three battalion commanders clean up the battlefield and come back,I listed the situation of both sides one by one,Finally, the three of them felt that there was nothing to show off even if there were zero casualties on this battlefield situation。

The volunteers are still cooling down the heads of several battalions of soldiers, but the Japanese devils are about to explode, Tetsuto Takayoshi Osa sent the Kato Brigade as a forward to march to Chengde, but there was no follow-up after hearing the fierce artillery sound in front, the last telegram sent by the brigade to the wing headquarters said that it was slightly resisted by the volunteers, and when the entire brigade was put into battle, Tetsuto Takayoshi also felt that if it wasn't for the hurry, Kato Chengliang would have lifted these people too much, At first, he thought that the artillery attached to the 2nd Brigade was attacking the enemy, but after thinking about it, it was not right, the 2nd Brigade was an infantry brigade, and there was no heavy artillery at all, so such a fierce artillery could only be from the Volunteers. So Tetsuto Takayoshi immediately ordered the wing headquarters to speed up, and at the same time notified the 88th Wing behind to speed up, but when the main force of the 87th Wing arrived at the battlefield, the volunteers had even cleaned up the battlefield, Tetsuto Takayoshi could only see a piece of Japanese corpses from the telescope, and he was so angry that he wanted to order the entire wing to attack, but was stopped by the chief of staff Yoshida Masafumi, Yoshida Nakasa said to him: "Your Excellency Osa, it is getting late now, and those people on the opposite side can completely annihilate Kato's brigade in such a short time." I think we should camp now, and after dawn tomorrow, apply to the air force from above, and reconnoiter the situation of the other side before acting, besides, our artillery brigade is still behind and has not been able to keep up. ”

This remark made Tetsuto Takayoshi also calm down, and it made sense if he thought about it carefully, even the Chengde county town where the head of the Zhumu Brigade was stationed could be captured overnight, and he really couldn't act rashly. Although Tetsuto Takayoshi has the common problem of arrogance and arrogance of Japanese officers, he has not yet felt that he can be more powerful than Junichi Takeki, although there were only gendarmerie and puppet troops in the city when Chengde fell, but with the ability of General Takeki to defeat so completely, there is no news, indicating that the opponent is very treacherous and cunning, General Takeki fell for their tricks, and the Kato brigade is estimated to be the same. So he ordered: "Order the main force of the wing to camp on the spot, inform Kobayashi Daisa of the battle situation and our decision, urge Shibata Shaosa's artillery to come as soon as possible, and at the same time report the situation here to General Koiso, and ask for support from the air force at dawn tomorrow." ”

"Hey!" Yoshida Masafumi nodded and went to deliver the order.

When Koiso Kuniaki received a telegram from Tetsuto Takayoshi on the front line of the Great Wall, he scolded several "fools and fools" in a row, although Yoshida Masafumi concealed at least half of the casualties in the report, but it still made him angry, because just now the Army Air Force Onizuka Hara Yoshidasa reported that two Type 92 reconnaissance planes that went to Chengde to carry out reconnaissance missions were missing, and they did not fly back until dark, and they could only be identified as battle damage, which made Koiso Kuniaki endure the pain of burning in his gums and report to General Muto Nobuyoshi by telegram.

Muto was also very annoyed when he received the report, where the hell did a group of mud legs come out of here, causing casualties to the Imperial Japanese Army one after another. In fact, when Junichi Takeki was still defending Chengde, he submitted a report to Muto Nobuyoshi, requesting that a special force be transferred to clear the volunteers active in the territory of Rehe, and also specifically mentioned the Eastern Independent Regiment in the report, but unfortunately Muto Nobuyoshi is old, and his thinking is also rigid in the tactical thinking of the First World War, and he did not pay any attention to Junichi Takeki's report, thinking that he exaggerated the threat of these rabble, and was ready to reprimand him, but he didn't expect something to happen, and even the plane could be shot down, They must not be regarded as a rabble, and then I remembered to look through the original report documents of Junichi Takeki and read them word by word, hoping to find some ideas to solve the problem.

Sure enough, living up to Muto Nobuyoshi's expectations, he found a person named Nikko Avant-garde in Takeki's report, and Junichi Takeki suggested that this person be transferred to deal with a unit called Wolf Fang in the Independent Regiment. For the Nikko avant-garde, Muto Nobuyoshi has an impression, graduated from the Imperial Army University, participated in the Japanese National Sniper Competition, won the championship, he and Shimizu Twenty-three are both high-achieving students of the Imperial Land University, is Shimizu's junior, both have participated in the sniper competition, and both have won the championship, a month ago, Shimizu Twenty-three Zuo has died in the hands of the wolf's fangs, Takeki Junichi once compared the two people like this: "Shimizu Twenty-three have, Nikko avant-garde has; Shimizu Twenty-Three doesn't have it, and the Nikko avant-garde also has it. It seemed that this person was the last trump card to deal with the wolf's teeth, so he said to Okamura Ninji, the deputy chief of staff: "Okamura-kun, send a report to the staff headquarters, and ask the staff officer of the base camp and the army major to report to the Kwantung Army headquarters. ”

"Hey!" Okamura nodded in reply. Muto Nobuyoshi, who was sitting at the desk, said fiercely: "Wolf Tooth, this time I pulled the tiger out, see where you wolves are fleeing." ”

The Kwantung Army began to react to the actions of the volunteers, but the ** in the Pingjin area was a little sluggish, He Yingqin received a report from the communications department in the early morning, and someone in Chengde sent a clear telegram saying that the ** squadron had captured Chengde, and at that time I thought that it was the Northeast Army unit left behind the enemy to exaggerate the results of the battle, and expand its influence to attract the attention of the national government. In the evening, he received a report from the front-line troops of the 29th Army that the Kwantung Army had suddenly withdrawn a large number of troops from the Changping area, and it was estimated that between a brigade and a division, the northeast direction was unknown, and at the same time, the consul general of the Japanese Consulate in Tianjin, Hachiro Arita informed him that the peace talks between the two countries had been suspended. At this time, he remembered the clear code telegram he received in the early morning, and dared to feel that this was not an exaggeration, Chengde had really been taken, but what had these people done earlier, taking advantage of the critical time of the peace talks between the two countries to capture such a strategic point as Chengde, wouldn't this add chaos to the national government, but he couldn't make any decision now, so he could only send a report to Chairman Chiang in Nanjing, asking for instructions.

Chiang Kai-shek received the telegram handed to him by the chamberlain, and scolded: "Niang Xipi! Ordered Dai Yunong, the secret service of the Lixing Society, to check which unit was making trouble, whether there was any involvement of the GCD, and told Jingzhi to try not to provoke the Japanese anymore and meet their demands to reach peace talks as soon as possible. ”

"Yes!" The head of the chamber replied.

It was completely dark, Gao Wenfeng returned to Chengde after Xu Yihang went to the front line to take over the command, and now Chengde is fully prepared for the final street battle with the Japanese army, most of the civilians in Chengde have left Chengde, and the streets are in a mess, seeing such a scene, Gao Wenfeng is a little creepy, the garbage and debris on the street look very desolate and dilapidated, but in fact they are deadly traps, because some garbage heaps have some wire-like things, although they are well camouflaged, But he couldn't escape his eyes - he had seen too much in the Middle East when he was peacekeeping, and there were all kinds of IEDs (improvised explosive devices) under the garbage heap, it seems that Dongfang Yunming, this kid has been to the Middle East and has not learned anything else, and has learned a lot about the bad tricks of terrorists. If the Japanese army enters the streets of Chengde, these IEDs will be detonated, and no matter how many people come in, they will have to be explained here, just so that the whole of Chengde will ......

Walking into the regiment headquarters, Gao Wenfeng said to Dongfang Yunming with a gloomy face: "Regiment commander, isn't the arrangement of the street battle too ......?"

Dongfang Yunming raised his head to look at Lao Gao's expression, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, most of the interior buildings I use are black powder, and I am reluctant to use TNT, and only at the city gate, the summer resort and some relatively wide streets by the Luan River are arranged 12 150 cannonballs." ”

Lei Zhan, who was resting next to him, also said: "Ouyang Qian and I have carefully calculated the power of the explosion, only the streets and windows can be destroyed, and there is no impact on the main building structure, but the explosion of black powder in the room will blacken all the walls, so we can only bother the people of Chengde to clean it by themselves." ”

Gao Wenfeng breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it did not cause excessive losses to the property of the people of Chengde, anyway, as soon as the Great Wall War of Resistance ended, Rehe would be assigned to the puppet Manchukuo on the bright side, as a distribution center for military supplies to the south, the Japanese would also invest in renovating Chengde, the scorched earth war of resistance was like this, China was too weak to have no choice.

"Report! The regimental commander, political commissar, chief of staff, and the commander of the cavalry company, Baltu, complete the mission! Baltu walked into the regimental headquarters.

"Good work, Commander Ba!" Zhang He brought over a glass of water.

"It's not hard, regimental commander, when can we let our cavalry company really go up and fight?" Baltu looked at Dongfang Yunming and asked.

"What's the hurry? If you can gallop on the boundaries of Rehe, I'll send you up at once, and now that you've completed your mission, we can carry out the plan. Dongfang Yunming said with a smile on his face.

"What did you think of again?" Zhang He looked at Dongfang Yunming and asked.

Dongfang Yunming walked over and muttered in Zhang He's ear for a while, and Zhang He replied with a straight glare: "The little devil has lacked great virtue for eight lifetimes, and he actually met you." Baltu on the side was a little confused, he had been confused since he was sent to carry those strange things, and he didn't know what this regiment leader was going to do, but Gao Wenfeng, Lei Zhan and Fan Tianlei knew what they were going to do as a regiment leader, and Muto Nobuyoshi couldn't find a place to cry this time.

"Order, a marketing to destroy all the field artillery to follow the regimental headquarters to evacuate Chengde in an orderly manner, transfer to the direction of Zhangjiakou, inform Rong Shi, most of the Rong family to go underground work, order the deputy regiment commander Xu Yihang, take advantage of the night to lead the 234th battalion to attack the Japanese army in front of the enemy after the artillery fire is prepared, and try to kill and wound the enemy's living forces as much as possible while preserving themselves, and the artillery battalion on the southern front set up a temporary position 3 kilometers in front of it to exhaust all the shells, and then evacuate as planned and rendezvous with the regiment headquarters in Zhangjiakou." Dongfang Yunming gave an order to the signal soldiers.

Soon, a battalion and a temporary artillery platoon on the northern front carried out the last shelling of the Japanese army in front of them with field guns, and the 60mm mortar shells were stuffed into the 75mm field gun chambers from the muzzle of the guns backwards and then evacuated the position.

At 12 o'clock in the night, the artillery battalion was ready to shoot, and the 2nd, 34th battalions moved into position from three directions. Suddenly, a sharp whistle pierced the silence of the night sky, it was the sound of the sound of the dysprosium, Chen Yingtian raised and ordered loudly: "All artillery, three test firing, release!" "Thirty 105 howitzers and 40 75 field guns opened fire at the same time, the shells flew in the direction of the Japanese, and a minute later, the forward scouts reported the impact point correction parameters, at which point the loader did his best to quickly take the shells and the cartridge bag out of the ammunition box and fill them into the chamber, and the gunner pulled the gun rope and fired it at once. The shells flew densely and accurately into the camps of the 87th and 88th Wings, and the Japanese troops were defenseless and were blown up to the ground crying for a while.

In fact, Tetsuto Takayoshi still has some ability, knowing that he is facing the Eastern Independent Regiment with heavy artillery, so he set up his camp in the valley, which is a low-lying area that is not easy to be shelled, but he didn't expect the volunteers on the opposite side to change the position of the artillery, and the shells flew in along the entrance and exit of the valley, and as a result, they have nowhere to run now. In particular, the artillery brigade of Shibata Zang, which had just arrived, hurried to catch up with the infantry wing, and was so tired that it fell asleep, and as a result, the first round of shells stared at them and smashed them, and along the way the reconnaissance company was constantly reporting their position to the artillery battalion, and of course receiving key care.

Takayoshi Tetsuto and Naosaburo Kobayashi fell off their beds during the test firing, quickly ran out of the tent, and tried their best to organize the troops to dodge. But such a large-scale shelling could not have been easily dodged, and besides, they were still in the valley. Kobayashi Naosaburo was not very lucky, when he was looking around for the chief of staff, a 105 shell exploded a few meters in front of him, he was not hit by shrapnel, but was blown away by the air wave, drew a standard parabola in the air and flipped n and a half times before hitting the stone head-down, unrecognizable.

The shelling lasted for twenty minutes, 70 guns fired at full speed, throwing thousands of shells on the devil's head, on average, one shell for every two people, after the shelling, not allowing Tetsuto Takayoshi to take a breath, in front, left and right three directions are shouting and killing, flying from all around I don't know what it is, after landing only heard the sound of glass bottles shattering, and then the camp was lit everywhere, the Japanese army was illuminated brightly, and then the mountains were full of gunfire.

This is Dongfang Yunming's Molotov cocktail when he was in the base area of Xishan Village, which is specially used for night combat lighting, because the volunteers do not have professional flares, they use glass bottles to fill most of the bottles of paraffin, and then dip them into a ball of cotton or broken hemp before the paraffin solidifies, and then fill the glass bottle with high liquor after solidification, and put a small packet of quicklime and starch mixture into the glass bottle when used, plug the cork tightly and throw it out, and the quicklime reacts violently with the little moisture in the liquor to release a lot of heat. When the glass bottle touches the ground and shatters, the alcohol vapor burns immediately when it comes into contact with the air, but the flame of the alcohol burning is dull and not enough to illuminate, so the paraffin wax can only be melted, and the bright flame when the paraffin wax burns to achieve the lighting effect. However, these Molotov cocktails were not thrown out, but ejected with large slingshots made of branches and hemp rope, so that they could be reached even at a distance of more than 100 meters.

But this Tetsuto Takayoshi is a little unbearable, the bright flames around him allow the volunteers to see themselves, but he can't see them, isn't this waiting to suffer? And the shooting level of these volunteers is really good, the bullets are not very dense, but there are constantly Japanese soldiers who are shot and fall. That is, this is what Dongfang Yunming fed with hundreds of thousands of bullets, and if the asymmetrical shot of more than 100 meters misses the target, then I'm sorry for the IQ of these fighters. Unable to do so, Tetsuto Takayoshi had no choice but to immediately order his troops to charge at all costs, and not to stay in the area illuminated by the firelight.
