012 Takeki captured
From the end of March to the present May 18th, due to Xu Yihang's prestige in Rehe, the volunteers under the command of Dongfang Yunming have swelled sharply from more than 100 people who initially looted armaments to more than 2,000 people, and the sudden increase in troops made Dongfang Yunming also a little surprised, although he was the brigade commander of the Wolf Tooth Special Operations Brigade in later generations, but he had never commanded so many troops in actual combat, especially behind enemy lines, and the Wolf Tooth Special Operations Brigade was usually the role of the Blue Army in the exercise, and the logistics of more than 3,000 people did not need to worry about him as a brigade commander at all. The troops that went deep behind enemy lines were only a small number of special commandos, and the logistical pressure was completely absent. But now the trouble is coming, more than 2,000 people are all behind enemy lines, and the combat effectiveness of these new recruits can even throw them eight streets away from the rookies of the Wolf Tooth Special Operations Brigade, which is equivalent to changing from the role of the Blue Army to the role of the Red Army at once, and all kinds of hard struggles followed.
However, in the end, it is the supreme commander of the special operations brigade directly under the large military region, Dongfang Yunming is also a doctoral student of the National Defense University, and there are more than 20 helpers, and more than a month of emergency training has made such a unit of different colors become the most effective volunteer army in the entire Rehe and even the four eastern provinces. Of course, the increase in combat effectiveness was fed by hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition and hundreds of shells, and the looted Japanese ammunition was almost exhausted, and the German ammunition was also consumed in thousands, because the cavalry and reconnaissance companies equipped with the Z-29 and other bolt-action rifles* were very different, so they had to be trained with these German ammunition. This made Zhang He, the political commissar in charge of logistics, stunned, if the troops continue like this, will there still be bullets available on the battlefield? Dongfang Yunming can't help it, accurate archery is fed by bullets, like the Xu sisters and brothers, they have practiced archery since they were children, and they have practiced for more than ten years, so the archery is a hundred shots. There is another reason for the large consumption of ammunition, when Dongfang Yunming was the commander of the special operations brigade, the ammunition consumption of the special operations brigade's daily training was the same as that of the field troops, the difference was that the field troops were the upper limit, and theirs was the lower limit. After more than a month of training, the combat effectiveness has improved a lot, but there is not much ammunition left.
Because the number of troops has reached more than 2,200 people, Dongfang Yunming and Zhang He decided to reorganize the troops into an independent regiment of the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army after a meeting, the head of the regiment is Dongfang Yunming, so it is also called the Oriental Independent Regiment to the outside world, political commissar Zhang He, deputy regiment commander Xu Yihang, 3 battalions under the independent regiment, each battalion is about 450 people, 1 cavalry company of 220 people and 1 reconnaissance company of 120 people, 1 artillery company of 120 people, regimental headquarters guard platoon 62 people, chief of staff Gao Wenfeng concurrently serves as the commander of a battalion, The soldiers of this battalion are mainly ordinary young and middle-aged people recruited from the surrounding areas, Xu Jinchuan, the commander of the second battalion, the soldiers are mainly the Northeast Army scattered in various places in Rehe, Feng San and Feng Yi are the commander and deputy commander of the third battalion respectively, and the soldiers are mainly bearded people from various hills in Rehe, that is, bandits. The commander of the cavalry company, Baltu, the commander of the reconnaissance company, Fan Tianlei, the instructor, Tan Xiaolin, the instructor, and the soldiers of the reconnaissance company are all excellent soldiers selected by the original teaching team from all the soldiers trained by the teaching team, and Chen Yingtian, the commander of the artillery company, is equipped with all 6 Type 92 infantry guns and 15 60mm mortars, and Qiu Hongbo, the commander of the regimental guard platoon.
Only a few dozen semi-automatic rifles were seized from the ordnance intercepted by the Japanese baggage team in Quyang Valley, and later Lei Zhan attacked everywhere in a month, and only 245 semi-automatic rifles were captured in the attack on the Japanese puppet army, 200 were equipped with cavalry companies, and the reconnaissance company only got less than 100, so Dongfang Yunming contacted Rongshi and asked him to buy 120 Thomson submachine guns from the arms dealers, of course, most of them were imitated by the Taiyuan Arsenal, and all of them were equipped with reconnaissance companies and guard platoons. The reconnaissance company was also armed with 15 Type 89 grenadiers. The German-made Mauser Type 24 rifles were all equipped with the 2nd Battalion, and the other two battalions were equipped with Japanese-style 38 rifles.
On the morning of the 18th, in Xishan Village, the headquarters of the Independent Regiment and the first military meeting after the reorganization of the Independent Regiment, although the commanders of each battalion and company did not have a unified uniform, it could be seen that after more than a month of training, everyone exuded the temperament of a professional soldier. Dongfang Yunming started first: "Today is the first all-round military meeting since the establishment of our independent regiment, mainly to study our next battle plan, and Political Commissar Zhang will tell you about the specific situation." ”
Zhang He stood up and said: "This is more than a month, our troops have developed rapidly, already have considerable strength, the Great Wall War of Resistance from March to now has been more than two months, the Japanese on the front line of the Great Wall by our 29th Army and 59th Army stubbornly blocked, this is the newspaper some time ago, a regiment of 500 warriors of the 29th Army went deep behind the enemy, as early as in Xifengkou with a broadsword to slash hundreds of Japanese Kwantung Army, which shows that the Japanese are not invincible, the front line is so lively, we must also act actively behind the enemy, Let the Japanese know that the Chinese are not to be messed with. In addition, the ammunition and materials looted in Quyang Valley last time were almost consumed, especially ammunition, our training consumed hundreds of thousands of rounds, and the Japanese-style ammunition was basically gone. ”
Feng San and Feng Yi couldn't bear it anymore and asked: "Political commissar, just say where to fight!" Let's not talk about these useless things. ”
Dongfang Yunming smiled and said, "How is this useless? Fighting devils is not the business of any one of us, nor is it the business of one regiment of the independent regiment, but the business of the entire Chinese nation. Therefore, we must draw up a battle plan in light of the situation of the entire war. The purpose of our combat operation this time is to feed the war with war and obtain material supplies for our troops, so our goal is here - Chengde, as long as we take Chengde, we will have everything we want. ”
"Chengde? Junichi Takeki's brigade is guarding there, how can we fight? Xu Jinchuan asked.
"It's true that Junichi Takeki is a brigade, but thousands of field troops in this brigade are on the front line of the Great Wall, there are only 200 baggage troops in Chengde City and more than 300 gendarmes stationed by the Kwantung Army Headquarters, and the rest are puppet troops, the number is only 800 people, combat effectiveness and weapons and equipment are not enough to worry about, and there are not many Japanese puppet troops around, and there is Rongshi in Chengde City as our internal response, and it is not a problem to take Chengde together. Chief of Staff, tell me about the specific plan. Dongfang Yunming said.
Gao Wenfeng stood up and opened the map and said: "The plan of the regimental headquarters is that at 3 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, the second battalion will attack the south gate, the first battalion will feint at the west gate and the north gate, and the artillery company will be divided into two parts to support the first battalion and the third battalion respectively, the reconnaissance company wolftooth commando will sneak into Chengde first, the first battalion will take the lead in firing, and at the same time the reconnaissance company will control the south gate, and the second battalion and the regimental headquarters guard platoon will quickly enter the city, and quickly attack the summer resort together with the guard platoon and the reconnaissance company. The cavalry company was on guard and reconnaissance on the periphery of Chengde to prevent enemy reinforcements from all directions, and once discovered, it immediately relied on the advantage of cavalry's rapid maneuver to disrupt the enemy's position and delay the enemy's reinforcements. ”
"What about our three battalions?" Feng San asked.
"The third battalion is the last trump card, and you intercept Junichi Takeki at the south gate." Dongfang Yunming said.
"No, Junichi Takeki will walk through the south gate? We entered through the south gate, and he would have come stupidly? Feng Yi asked.
"It's because he's smart, that's why he will break through to the south gate, this person has a suspicious personality, there are battles on the south, north, and west sides, but the east gate is calm, and Junichi Takeki will feel that this is a trap we have set for him, and he will definitely go to the south gate. Still have any questions? Dongfang Yunming said.
"Nope." All of them replied.
"Okay, the meeting is adjourned, everyone hurry up and prepare, pay attention to the strict confidentiality of this operation, except for everyone here, don't let anyone else know our intentions before the action." Dongfang Yunming said.
After the battle meeting, the Wolf Tooth Commando of the reconnaissance company disguised themselves as Japanese baggage teams and caravans used forged documents to infiltrate Chengde and connect with Rongshi. At 3 o'clock in the morning of May 20, the units of the independent regiment had reached their respective positions, and the artillery company was divided into two parts, and prepared for 10 minutes of fire on the west gate and the north gate respectively, while a battalion of light and heavy machine guns opened fire one after another, and the reconnaissance company and Rong Shi's subordinates quietly took the south gate city wall in the night.
Patrolling and guarding each wall was a platoon of the Re Army, all the Japanese soldiers were sleeping in the barracks, and the sudden shelling woke everyone up, and Junichi Takeki also came out of the bedroom with his clothes on, looked at the somewhat chaotic soldiers and staff officers in the summer resort and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
A staff officer of the second lieutenant replied: "Report to the general, the west gate and the north gate of Chengde were attacked by unknown forces, the enemy used artillery, and the regents on the city wall suffered heavy casualties. ”
"How many enemies are there?" Takeki asked again.
The second lieutenant replied: "The night is too dark to see clearly, but judging by the sound of gunfire, at least nearly a thousand people are attacking the city." ”
"Immediately send a report to the troops around Chengde and order them to quickly return to Chengde! In addition, the gendarmerie quickly strengthened the defense of the south and east gates, and the recurring army must hold the west and north gates. Junichi Takeki ordered.
"Hay!"
Junichi Takeki had just finished giving the order, when suddenly a terrible chirping pierced the night sky, and all the soldiers in the summer resort were terrified when they heard it, because they all knew that this voice meant that the chirming had returned after more than a month of silence.
Takeki Jun was taken aback when he heard the sound of Ming Di, when the second lieutenant staff officer reported to him, he did not take the volunteers who were besieging the city in his eyes, and it was difficult to damage the solid city wall of Chengde with the mortars and infantry guns in their hands, Xu Yihang and the mysterious wolf tooth were the henchmen of the Kwantung Army, but when he heard the sound of Ming Di near the summer resort, he finally understood why Xu Yihang had no news for more than a month, Even Kang Wenping came to Chengde more than half a month ago to put on such a big pomp to attract Xu Yihang, she didn't appear, if Xu Yihang was still fighting alone, he would still be sure to deal with it, but now, he was really a little scared.
After the second battalion of the independent regiment took the south gate, Xu Jinchuan and Xu Yihang and Xu Erhang launched an attack on the summer resort together, and their three sisters and brothers still used bows and arrows. Xu Yihang, Xu Erhang and Xu Jinchuan continued to shoot the soldiers of the summer resort under the cover of the reconnaissance company and the submachine guns of the guard platoon, the sound of the beeping was continuous, and the Japanese soldiers began to retreat, and when Takemu Jun heard the sound of the chirping, he felt that Chengde was really dangerous this time, at 3 o'clock in the morning, it was the time when people were most tired, the bow and arrow were completely invisible to the Japanese soldiers in such a dark environment, and the muzzle flame of the Type 38 rifle on their side was small, and it was also conspicuous against the background of the night, not to mention the machine gun, the situation was completely asymmetrical, And judging from the sound of offensive gunfire, the squadron actually has a large number of Thomson submachine guns, in such an environment similar to street fighting in the summer resort, their own soldiers are simply live targets, and the opponent has so many submachine guns, but rarely hear the sound of continuous shooting, most of them are short point shots, which shows that this unit is well-trained, by no means idle, it is really a terrible opponent. Seeing the chaotic soldiers in the headquarters, he shouted: "Baga, what's the chaos? Ordered all troops, alternately covering the retreat. ”
Junichi Takeki is still a smart man in the end, not as arrogant as most Japanese officers, thinking that the Chinese army is garbage, there is nothing to worry about, there are not many troops in Chengde City, most of them are still logistics troops, and he does not count on the puppet army at all, the other party has arrived at the summer resort, there are a large number of automatic weapons, and it is the best choice for all troops to withdraw from Chengde at this time. So he ordered the brigade headquarters to immediately assemble and retreat in the direction of the south gate, and then walked to his desk and began to collect the papers on the table.
Suddenly, Junichi Takeki picked up a telegram sandwiched in it, stunned for a moment, and then, as if he had made up his mind, left the telegram on the table, and left with the other documents.
The reconnaissance company attacking the summer resort used submachine guns to pour bullets on the devils mercilessly, such a small space, it was not a battle at all, it was a complete massacre, the Thomson submachine gun .45 caliber bullets were extremely powerful, no matter where they hit, they were seriously injured, and the wails of the Japanese devils who were injured and fell to the ground greatly hit the morale of the other devils, and after half an hour of fighting, the devils could no longer support it, and immediately retreated in the direction of the east gate.
Dongfang Yunming commanded the three battalions at the south gate to set up ambush positions, light and heavy machine guns were all ambushed on the left and right sides of the street, and snipers suppressed the Japanese machine gun fire on the city wall. At about 4 o'clock in the morning, a group of about 100 Japanese soldiers hugged a car to the south gate, Dongfang Yunming saw the car, smiled softly, because the car was sitting on the Takeki Junichi, Takeki was injured in the early years of the war, and was equipped with a prosthesis, so his mobility has been inconvenient, and the distance he usually walks around with a cane can not be too far, usually by car or wheelchair, and now there is such a car, of course, only Takeki Junichi.
Junichi Takeki sat in the car, expressionless, for more than a month, although the volunteers have been constantly fighting with the Kwantung Army, but all of them are petty fights, he really neglected that their strength will develop to the point where it is now, when the Kwantung Army 128 people occupied Chengde, but now they are retreating in a gloomy manner, or underestimate Xu Yihang, I hope they can see the telegram on the table.
Junichi Takeki was closing his eyes when he suddenly felt that something was wrong, out of perennial battlefield intuition, he felt a trace of danger, at this moment, a bullet pierced the front windshield of the car, killing the driver, the car lost control, and crashed straight into the house on the side of the road, Takeki wanted to jump out of the car It was too late, and the violent impact made his eyes dark, and he lost consciousness.
This bullet was shot by Dongfang Yunming, after he fired the first shot, all the light and heavy machine guns in ambush around fired at the same time, the Japanese soldiers were caught off guard, a large number of dead and wounded, they were suddenly attacked and immediately organized a breakthrough under the leadership of the military police captain Miki Kazuo, but as soon as the machine gun fired, the machine gunner was killed, Miki immediately sensed that there was a sniper, but there was no other way but to force a breakthrough, a military Cao ran over and told Miki that the brigade commander Junichi Takeki was injured and was stuck by the overturned car, Completely unable to move.
"Baga, leave a small detachment to protect the general, and the others will follow me, we must take down the city wall and kill those Zhina people!" Kazuo Miki ordered angrily.
"Hay!"
The remaining dozens of Japanese soldiers rushed to the city wall like crazy, but the machine gun bullets on both sides were in hot pursuit, and when they rushed to the city wall, there were only about two dozen of them, and at this time, more than a dozen grenades fell from above, and after a series of explosions, except for the 8 people next to Takeki's car, there were no more devils standing, and Kazuo Miki was also engulfed in the flames of the explosion.
All the soldiers of the third battalion surrounded the eight devils in the middle with their bayonet rifles, and those devils also held their guns, pushed off the bullets in the chamber one by one, and prepared to fight the bayonets. Dongfang Yunming walked over, took the gun in the hand of a soldier, walked into the encirclement, and said to a few devils in Japanese: "Two choices, surrender or try with me?" He did this to improve the courage of the soldiers, the Japanese army's stabbing skills were superb, so that all the teams that had fought with them in white-knuckle battles were apprehensive, and most of the soldiers of the third battalion were bandits before, and they were even more afraid of the Japanese army's stabbing skills.
The two devils looked at him, shouted, and stabbed over with a bayonet, Dongfang Yunming opened the bayonet on the left, and at the same time flashed a rifle butt and hit the devil's steel helmet on the right, knocking him to the ground, and quickly turned around, the bayonet pierced through the ribs of the previous devil, and before everyone could see what was going on, Dongfang Yunming pulled out the bayonet again, and once again opened the bayonet stabbed by the devil who had just gotten up from the ground, and then kicked out, and saw the devil squatting down in pain with his crotch, and Dongfang Yunming was not entangled, Turning the bayonet and stabbing the devil in the neck, the whole process took less than 5 seconds, and both the devil and the soldiers of the independent regiment were very surprised.
"Who else wants to die?" Dongfang Yunming said expressionlessly to the remaining 6 devils in Japanese. The 6 devils didn't say a word, looked at each other, and stabbed at Dongfang Yunming with bayonets together, in the same way, before everyone could see what was going on, 3 of the 6 devils had already fallen, and the remaining 3 were suddenly frightened, and they couldn't care about the spirit of bushido, so they threw down the gun in their hands and ran towards the city gate, but they didn't run a few steps before they were caught up by the bullets of the machine gun.
Dongfang Yunming walked over to the car, saw the unconscious Junichi Takeki, and ordered Feng San to take someone to move the car out of the way, get Junichi Takeki out, and send it to the health team for treatment. Captured a major general, this time Muto Nobuyoshi should be in pain.
