The 86th Battle of Caofang Mountain
Yu Xuezhong hurriedly took Liu Zhiyuan's hand and said: "The Southern Expeditionary Army is well-known and hard-standing, and the main force of the Southern Expedition is even more bullish. Chief of Staff Han asked me to ask you a group, do you welcome the little devils to come to Houchong Mountain? ”
Liu Zhiyuan said in a suffrage: "I've been waiting for them for a long time, and we have all rested for a long time in the battle of Lu'an." In the battle of Honghua Mountain, we just watched the excitement of others, and our hands were already itchy. What are you doing when you come, isn't it just to welcome the little devils! If they want to come, let them taste our Shandong 'big potato', our 'peanut' is amazing! ”
A few words were said by Yu Xuezhong and Han Xing, and both laughed.
At this time, it was already time for dinner, Yu Xuezhong said: "You are really in a hurry, if you don't come early or late, you just rush to the meal." Then you're welcome, so please try our brown rice and vegetable soup! ”
Han Xing became anxious when he heard this, and shouted, "Big brother, don't you want to let the little brother go." I finally came to you, and I told us to eat this. Don't forget to kill the devil tomorrow, after eating such a meal, you don't have the strength, how can you fight with the devil with a bayonet? ”
Of course, Liu Zhiyuan was not happy, and shouted: "It is said that your national army is very rich, especially you as a military commander, and the meal is red wine, bread and milk." If we eat this, we will leave and go to our Wangling Village, because this is the time of war, and we eat stewed meat and white buns. ”
Yu Xuezhong said with a sad face: "If I have red wine, bread and milk, I can still let you eat brown rice and vegetable soup, if you don't believe it, then follow me around." ”
Regardless of whether what Yu Xuezhong said is true or not, of course Han Xing has to follow Yu Xuezhong to see what kind of food the 51st Army eats. Liu Zhiyuan never believed Yu Xuezhong's words, Lu'an is Lu'an, this is here, thinking that Yu Xuezhong wanted to smash them, was prejudiced against the Southern Expeditionary Army, and deliberately starved them.
The two of them followed Yu Xuezhong to the next room to take a look, and the agency personnel did eat brown rice and vegetable soup, and followed Yu Xuezhong to the company to take a look, and the soldiers did eat brown rice and vegetable soup.
Especially when it came to Xu Dachang's company. At this time, Xu Dachang's company had been replenished, although it was not full, but it also got forty or fifty people, which was much better than the remaining ten or so people. Xu Dachang's company was also having dinner at this time, and they were also eating brown rice and vegetable soup.
As soon as Xu Dachang saw that Commander Yu Xuezhong was leading Han Xing to come, he quickly stood up, stood upright, and shouted: "Report to Army Commander Yu, report to Chief of Staff Han, and Xu Dachang, the commander of the first company, is here to report to you." ”
Han Xing smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and hurriedly motioned for him to sit down and eat. glanced at Yu Xuezhong, and then asked Xu Dachang: "Company Commander Xu, is your meal delicious?" ”
Xu Dachang frowned and said, "Chief of Staff Han, do you still need to say this?" Do you want me to tell the truth, or do you want to tell a lie? ”
Han Xing looked at Yu Xuezhong again and said, "Of course it's telling the truth." ”
"What's delicious," Xu Dachang complained, "We Northeast people don't have a stomach to eat brown rice at all, and who can stand drinking this vegetable soup all day long!" That's why I joined the Southern Expeditionary Army. It's not a day or two, adults are tired of eating these toys all their lives, and we are really scared. ”
When Yu Xuezhong heard these words, he was really annoyed, and pretended to lose his temper with Han Xing and said, "I said Chief of Staff Han, this is your mistake." Don't hit people in the face, don't expose people, you Southern Expeditionary Army eat well, but I have it here! Simply, you guys pulled me up, and eating a stew of meat also made you addicted, but my few taels of lean meat are not enough for everyone to stuff their teeth. I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, so I eat these brown rice and vegetable soup, which I also worked hard to get! Otherwise, I won't even be able to eat this! ”
Han Xing was carefully calculating: "5,000 people have one pound of meat per person, which is 2 and a half tons, and 2 pounds of meat for one person is 5 tons, plus 10 tons of white noodles." That's it, Commander Yu, in order to fight, tomorrow I will ask the Air Force to airdrop 5 tons of pork and 10 tons of white flour to you, do you want it!? I still have this right. ”
Yu Xuezhong was happy when he heard it, and said with a smile: "If someone else gives it, I really don't want it, isn't that the 51st Army?" But what you Han Xing brother gives, I will not refuse to come, the more the merrier. Who made us brothers, well, I thank you on behalf of all the brothers of the 51st Army. If I had known that your Southern Expeditionary Army was so rich, why don't we all join the Southern Expeditionary Army! ”
Han Xing also knew that he was joking, and also said, "Then you can ask the chairman if he is willing?" ”
"It doesn't matter if he's happy or not!" Yu Xuezhong guarded his subordinates and said with a smile, "Let's eat a round belly first, and then fill up the hungry intestines." ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Yu Xuezhong turned his head and said: "But there are some things that I am bored about, it is a time of war, there is a shortage of materials, everything is extremely expensive, and there is no yet." And why are your Southern Expeditionary Army so rich? ”
Before Han Xing could speak, Liu Zhiyuan said: "Commander Yu, you said these things, you can be regarded as asking the point, and this is all due to our Chief of Staff Han." In a short period of time, he turned Liaocheng upside down, from a poor Liaocheng to a modern society with developed industry and agriculture and almost everything. Without these industrial and agricultural foundations, would our Southern Expeditionary Army be what it is now? How else can Chief of Staff Han give you tons of pork and white noodles? He didn't even blink an eye, that's what he had! ”
In a few words, it can be said that some people in Yu Xuezhong and Xu Dachang widened their eyes, just like listening to the book of heaven, they have a lot of high regard for Han Xing.
On the morning of September 7, the 13th Division of the Japanese Army really began to attack Caofang Mountain, which was in Houchong Mountain.
The Japanese army cobbled together a force of about 4,000 people along the valley below Caofang Mountain, apparently another full force of a wing, ready to launch an attack on Caofang Mountain.
Looking at the dense yellow team of the little devils under the mountain, it was like a nest of locusts, and Han Xing had to admire the organizational ability of the little devils. Several infantry wings are short of personnel, and there are six or seven losses out of ten, which must be that the little devils have adjusted their personnel from the logistics point of view to supplement the troops on the front line, at least to restore the offensive ability of the wing in front of them.
The attack was organized by Major General Meiji Yamada, commander of the 103rd Brigade, and the Japanese wing that was fleshed out was the 104th Infantry Wing under the command of Meiji Yamada, which was crippled in the battle to attack Shihe.
After the Battle of Honghuashan, the 103rd Wing of the 65th Brigade of the Japanese Army, the 116th Wing of the 26th Brigade and the 56th Wing of the 56th Brigade lost Yan zhòng, and it was indeed impossible to organize an offensive anymore. With the support of the Ogisu Libing, personnel from the 13th Engineer Wing and the 13th Baggage Wing were transferred to join the Infantry Wing, and the 104th Infantry Wing was barely able to make up the full strength of the 104th Infantry Wing.
Due to the lack of troops, the 51st Army could not be like Honghua Mountain in building fortifications, and built the fortifications along the root of the mountain all the way to the top of the mountain, but gave up all the slopes of the mountain, and only built a line of fortifications on the top of the mountain. The advantage of this is that it can concentrate its forces on the front line of the hill and concentrate on attacking the Japanese army, but the disadvantage is that once the hill is broken through, the Caofang Mountain will be lost.
Looking at the yellow patch of the Japanese army in the valley, Han Xing sneered and said to Xuezhong: "It's really a pig, remember to eat or not, such a dense formation, aren't you afraid of air raids." ”
Yu Xuezhong also looked at the little devils in the valley and said to Han Xing: "Just wait for your air force to lay eggs!" ”
Han Xing shouted: "Director Zhang! ”
Director Zhang of the Planning Department had been waiting for a long time and shouted: "Here!" "Came to Han Xing's face.
"Sue Commander Xu, tell them to beat hard, you're welcome!" Han Xing issued an order to Director Zhang.
In fact, Xu Da's air force had been waiting for a long time, and after receiving Han Xing's order, a Y-8 transport plane, under the cover of J-20 fighters, immediately carried out an aerial bomb drop operation on the devils in the valley.
A 50-kilogram bomb exploded in the valley, and the Japanese troops, who had no air defense, immediately flashed red flames, and the flames bred black smoke, and the smoke and smoke quickly merged into a larger devil-like black smoke.
In this black smoke, the shock wave is sweeping, shrunnel is flying sideways, pieces of devils are falling, thousands of shrapnel are cutting the flesh of the little devils, and terrible aerial bombs are ruthlessly devouring the lives of the little devils.
As soon as the smoke cleared, it was a fluke that escaped life from these bombs, and before they could catch their breath, the second Y-8-transport plane flew in again and dropped a second aerial bomb that slipped innumerable......
The little devil who had just escaped from the hands of death was faced with a second great challenge.
The commander of the 104th Wing, Ryo Kugang, was almost angry, and he shouted: "When has our Japanese imperial army been bullied like this by the Chinese Air Force, let them bomb us again and again. And what about our aviation, what about our planes, where did they go? ”
King Kong also knew in his heart that if the Japanese air force came, it would be even worse, and the Chinese air force would be shot down by those flaming aircraft behind the buttocks, and no matter how many Japanese air forces there were, it would be in vain, but the weapons were not powerful!
At this time, King Kong was a little confused, he hoped that the air force would come to support, and he also knew that even if the Japanese air force came, it would be in vain.
King Kong shouted at the captains under him: "We, the soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army, must show our spirit of bushido, don't be afraid of the Chinese soldiers, they just have an air force, and they have nothing but the air force." Rush up, mess with them, and see what else those Chinese air forces can do? The duck gives--the rabbit gives-"
King Kong Rifu's command knife swung upward, and the little devils rushed towards the top of the grass house mountain with bright bayonets one by one, holding bright bayonets, gurgling and screaming.
In fact, if they didn't rush up and were bombed by Xu Da's air force, it would be even more uncomfortable.
