Chapter 521: Start all over again

It should be said that through the efforts of the fierce men in the past few years, the Volunteer Army has undergone essential changes in both its scale and combat effectiveness, and has changed from a resistance armed force that follows the trend to a leader in the entire Manchuria's resistance against Japan.

Especially in the convenience of weapons, it is even more like a shotgun for a gun: it is snatched from the hands of the little devils, and what the national army wants, and what the allies give, and I dare not say anything else, and it is not a problem to equip 20,000 or 30,000 people. Moreover, these weapons and ammunition are no worse than those of the Kwantung Army, and some even surpass those of the Kwantung Army.

Because of this, it invisibly made Takeshi have a small look at the Kwantung Army and Yasumoto. In recent years, the rapid development of the Volunteers has no conflict with the little devils, and most of the time, the Volunteers can gain the upper hand. There is also a special operations team under Mengzi, Benxi Lake, Renxian City, and even Andong City, as if walking on the ground, saying that if you enter the city, you will enter the city. Whether it is a traitor in the city, a little devil, or a Japanese, he can kill whoever he kills.

When Mengzi was in the limelight, this sniper battle, like a basin of cold water, was poured down with his head and head, so that Mengzi really understood that these Kwantung Army were not as weak as he thought, and Yasumoto was not without strategy, and this guy's reputation as a China expert still had some weight.

The main reason why the Volunteers were able to make such a big move in the Benxi Lake area was that the Kwantung Army did not consider the Benxi Lake area in an important strategic position. In the eyes of the Kwantung Army, Benxi Lake was just a war zone, and it was not of great importance to the entire Manchuria, and its gains and losses could not affect the occupation of Manchuria by the Kwantung Army.

It is such a position, therefore, the Japanese did not put important forces here, which also gave Mengzi a chance to show his skills and achieved his leading status.

Yasumoto is not in vain, he is just suffering from a lack of manpower, and he does not have enough strength in his hands to completely eliminate the volunteers and eliminate the fierce son.

Of course, if this operation of the Kwantung Army had been placed a year ago, let alone Wunu Mountain now, even Tiesha Mountain would have long since become the bag of the Kwantung Army.

This year, for the volunteers and Yang Juan's guerrillas, the growth of strength and the improvement of combat effectiveness were of great help. The main thing is to give them a substantial leap in the military.

When Mengzi thought about these things, he no longer had the original arrogance, he had to calm down completely and think about the future of the volunteers.

Objectively speaking, objectively speaking, in this sniper war, the volunteers and guerrillas were not the losers, and in terms of the heavy damage inflicted on the little devils and the Imperial Army, the victory they achieved was very impressive.

Since the Kwantung Army entered the Northeast, it can be said that it has been invincible, and in the face of their powerful offensive, even the well-armed Northeast Army has had to collapse and flee.

In this way, it is not that the little devils did not encounter any resistance in Manchuria.

There is a team that does not listen to evil, and this team is Chief Ma, chairman of Longjiang Province of the Northeast Army. It was under his leadership that the little devil encountered the first fierce battle since entering the Northeast in Jiangqiao. Although in the end, Ma Bu ran out of ammunition and food, fought alone, lost the river bridge without backup, and the provincial capital of Qi City fell, and the commander Ma had to take his men and horses to move to the primeval forests of Siberia and Xin*jiang and other places, but the entire Northeast has since kicked off the prelude to fighting against the little devils.

The sniper battle at Tiesha Mountain can be said to be the second stubborn resistance encountered by the Japanese in Manchuria, and its tragedy is no less than the battle of Jiangqiao. For the Kwantung Army, the defeat was much greater than the last battle of Jiangqiao: because of the battle of Jiangqiao, no matter how many people were killed and wounded on both sides, in the end, the Japanese attacked Jiangqiao, won the battle, captured the city of Qi, and achieved a complete victory militarily.

Mengzi also understood in his heart that war was like this, no matter how big or small the battle was, and how much the casualties cost, it was based on military victory. The impact on the morale of the team, needless to say. It was the Battle of Jiangqiao that gave the Japanese more ideas, and their ambitions were not limited to occupying the entire Northeast.

Although the losses of the volunteers and guerrillas were very large, militarily, it should be said that it was not the Japanese who won the complete victory, but the volunteers and guerrillas. Because the little devil's goal of completely solving these two resistance forces in the end has not been achieved.

On the other hand, in terms of the pure casualty figures, the Japanese did not take advantage of it, and even more than the number of casualties of the two groups of volunteers and guerrillas combined. Therefore, although the remaining volunteers have not completely freed themselves from the pain of losing so many brothers, the pride of defeating the little devil that overflows from their hearts still makes everyone's hearts very excited.

But as the soul of the volunteers, Mengzi didn't think so in his heart. This is not that he is not happy with the sniper victory that his team has achieved, but that he is thinking more about how to return to the previous combat effectiveness as soon as possible after the big battle.

On the whole, the number of casualties of the little devil this time is 17,000 or 8, if not 20,000, but in short, it will definitely be much more than the number of casualties of the volunteers.

But then again, even if all the Kwantung Army that came to attack this time was thrown here, it would only be regarded as a broken finger for the entire Kwantung Army, and it would not have much impact on the function of the entire "hand" and the overall situation of the Kwantung Army's military occupation in Manchuria. Besides, whether in terms of the number of troops or weapons and equipment, this loss can be completely made up by the Kwantung Army in less than a month.

For the Volunteers, the situation is very different:

After several years of painstaking management, the Volunteer Army has grown from 200 to 300 to more than 10,000 people. From only a lonely Iron Brake Mountain, it has developed into today's Iron Brake Mountain, Hulu Mountain, Lotus Mountain, Lijiatai, Lao Ye Ling, Dadingzi Mountain, etc., etc., it can be said that all the efforts of Mengzi and Wang Ying have been poured in.

And the sniper battle on Tiesha Mountain caused more than half of the fierce son to lose at once, and the weapons and ammunition that had been accumulated were almost lost. They didn't have the same strong backup as the Kwantung Army. No one replenishes themselves with personnel, weapons and ammunition. In short, the Volunteers can only rely on themselves if they want to recover. Therefore, this is what Mengzi thinks about the most at present, and it is also the one that makes him the most unhappy.

"Commander, you don't have to worry, although the team is less than half now, there is still no big problem in guarding Tiesha Mountain. I've heard that the whole Kanto region is moving, so the little devils won't be staring at this place. We can start all over again, it won't take two or three years, and we'll be the same as before. Hu Da Niu came from the opposite side, saw Mengzi's frowning appearance, and hurriedly persuaded and said.

"Brother Hu, all these years of hard work, let the little devil spoil it like this, it's really a bit heart-wrenching." Mengzi looked at Hu Daniu and said with red eyes.

"Mengzi, I can understand your feelings, in fact, my heart is the same as yours, and it is not comfortable, especially the fourth regiment leader, who has followed me for so many years, and if you say no, it will be gone. However, this time, if there is a victorious side, then our volunteers deserve it. You are the backbone of our volunteers, you need to cheer up as soon as possible, everyone is looking at you, and you need to boost your morale. Hu Daniu said with some worry.

"Don't worry, Brother Hu, I'm fine, I'm just panicking. Do you estimate how many people can be replenished by the militia group? ”

"Mengzi, I talked to Political Commissar Yang yesterday, and Political Commissar Yang said that the losses of the militia this time were not very large, only one or two thousand casualties, so at least the militia can still have more than 4,000 people available. Excluding some of the older ones and those who don't want to come out, I estimate that at least 2,000 people can be recruited. ”

"By the way, Wu Jun has a telegram, you can take a look." After listening to Hu Daniu, Mengzi didn't answer, but handed the telegram sent by Wu Jun to Hu Daniu and said.

"Wu Jun, this guy is okay, this idea is very good. I think the plan they came up with is okay. It's a bit of a brain. Once this Dadingzi Mountain and Lao Ye Ridge are owned by us, the side of Tiesha Mountain will be safer. Is 200 people a little less in one place? I mean, Lao Ye Ling and Dadingzi Mountain, let's put it in one place for 400 people. I just don't know if they can feed them. Hu Daniu said excitedly.

"I've been to Lao Ye Ling, if you put some thought into it, let alone four hundred, it's no problem to have a few thousand. Dadingzi Mountain is not far behind.

Brother Hu, you see if this will work, now that Sixi's four regiments have collapsed, I will give this establishment to Wu Jun, and let him recruit troops and horses according to the establishment of a regiment in the area of Laoyeling and Dadingzi Mountain, and the weapons and ammunition will be provided by us, half of the food will be supplied to them, and the rest will be solved by themselves. Mengzi's eyes lit up and he said.

"Well, that's a good idea, I agree with you. You see if this will work, now that the little devil has withdrawn from the mountain, I estimate that they will not come again for a while, I will go to Wu Jun's place, tell him about our decision, and help him by the way. ”

"Brother Hu, that's what I mean, in this way, since Wu Jun is allowed to rebuild the Fourth Regiment, he will be the commander of this regiment, and in addition, you go this time and bring him 200 people as the backbone of the Fourth Regiment. It's up to the two of you to decide the heads below. All the weapons that should have been brought with them were also brought with them. Mengzi was injured and inconvenient to move, so he had to let Hu Daniu pass, but he was embarrassed to say this idea.

"Okay, then it's decided, I'll arrange this place for the next two days, prepare the people and weapons that I'm going to bring over, and set off in three days. Chief of Staff, you are in such a state now, and Political Commissar Yang is also injured, why don't you let Commander Wang Ying come over. ”

"It's best for the commander to come over, anyway, there is a fifth uncle at home. By the way, you didn't tell the commander about my injury, did you? Mengzi looked at Hu Daniu and asked.
