Chapter Twenty-Three: Don't Call Sun Monkeys
On Yuwang Mountain, a plaster flag flutters in the wind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ใ At the foot of Yuwang Mountain, Lu Han, commander of the 60th Army, and Zhang Chong, commander of the 184th Division, stood side by side and observed the mountain with a telescope. Next to him stood Chief of Staff Zhao Jinwen.
"How? Is it safe to take down the little devil quickly? Zhang Chong put down the binoculars and asked.
"No problem. There is only one brigade of devils on the mountain. They had only been on the mountain for a few days, and the fortifications they had built were not strong enough. However, powerful artillery is needed. Zhang Chong also put down the binoculars and replied.
"Our own artillery will arrive in a few days. The artillery, promised by the chairman, would arrive in the evening. How do you plan an attack? Lujรกn asked again.
When Kunming was reorganized, the 60th Army itself had an artillery regiment, a machine gun brigade and an antiaircraft artillery brigade directly under it; After arriving in Wuhan, the Military Commission replenished the 60 th Army with a batch of equipment. However, the 60th Army was originally going to Henan to serve as a reserve for the 1st Theater, and it would not need to be reloaded for a while, so when the 60th Army set off, the artillery units directly under it were still training in Xiaogan and Huayuan.
Zhang Chong frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Commander Lu, I think so. To deal with the devils of a brigade, the artillery supported by the chairman must be used first. I am ready to send three regiments. The 543 Regiment of Zeng Zesheng of the 1085 Brigade moved to the west and attacked from the left flank; Wang Bingzhang, commander of the 544th Brigade, personally led Wang Kaiyu's 1087th Regiment to attack from the right flank; Yang Hongyuan's 1086th Regiment was ambushed in a large ditch washed by rain in front of Yuwang Mountain, ready for a central breakthrough. When the left and right regiments began to attack and attract the Japanese army to divide their forces to fight, Yang Hongyuan's regiment immediately launched a charge, forcibly seized the main peak position, pressed down from above, and then attacked the enemy on the left and right. โ
Lu Han thought for a moment and said, "The battle plan is approved, and the order will be sent down immediately." Tomorrow Foxiao will start fighting. โ
"Yes." Zhang Chong stood upright, agreed, and then wrote the battle order.
Boom, the sound of a car motor sounded in the distance. Luhan turned his head to look and opened his mouth wide in surprise.
In the distance, Long Xiaotian rode slowly over on a white horse, surrounded by more than twenty guards, followed by two gas cars, and the last one seemed to be dragging a cannon. Behind them were a group of hardcover young men dressed in black and wearing top hats, all riding horses, in good spirits.
Long Yunqing, the commander of the guard company, ran over panting.
"What's going on?" Lu Han asked, pointing at Long Xiaotian's group.
Long Yunqing immediately reported: "Report to Commander Lu." I asked Long Xiaotian, and he said that these people were his subordinates, the military commander Hujiazhuang. Those soldiers were sent by Chief Li Zongren to protect Long Xiaotian. He also said that Chief Li sent someone to send an American-made M101 105mm howitzer with 200 shells. Let's take a look at it first, and there will be one of this kind in the future. Moreover, these American artillery pieces did not belong to the battalion that the chairman had promised to transfer. The sound of the cannon just now was the result of Long Xiaotian's test cannon. โ
Lu Han, Zhang Chong and Zhao Jinwen were all surprised when they heard this.
"Let's go, let's take a look." Lujรกn said. The three of them went over together and met Long Xiaotian and Yue Li.
Seeing that Long Xiaotian's guards were all armed with submachine guns, majestic and majestic, Lu Han sighed to himself, more magnificent than his own guards. Long Xiaotian raised his head proudly, and the resentment against Li Zongren in his heart disappeared.
Yue Li kept staring at Long Xiaotian, seeing his expression, the stone in her heart fell to the ground, and secretly admired Li Zongren for being a human spirit and knowing how to win over Long Xiaotian.
Lu Han walked up to the cannon, slapped the barrel with his palm, was pleasantly surprised, and said repeatedly: "Good, good, the chairman is really good this time, and he takes good care of our local army." โ
Zhao Jinwen saw the English logo on it clearly, had some doubts, and said to Long Xiaotian: "Deputy Chief of Staff Long, as far as I know, the United States pursues a policy of neutrality, how can it send us artillery?" โ
When Yue Li heard the title of "Deputy Chief of Staff Long", she looked at Long Xiaotian in amazement, her eyes blinking.
Long Xiaotian gave her a small look, put his hands behind his back, and said: "Chief of Staff Zhao, the United States is worried that Japan will expand its hegemony in Asia and attack the South Seas, so it has changed its attitude and secretly supports China. Of course, this is confidential information, and only I, Chairman of the NPC Committee, Director Dai, and Chief Li know about it. I hope you don't spread the news. โ
Seeing Long Xiaotian put on an unfathomable look again, Lu Han and the three of them nodded, their eyes widened, and they seemed to believe his words and respect him more. Zhang Chong naturally thanked Long Xiaotian for sending the cannon.
Long Xiaotian turned to Yue Li and ordered, "Let all the guards sent by Commander Li go back." There are five agents left here, and the others do as I was told. You also hurry up and send a report so that the bureau can prepare the materials I want. โ
Yue Li was a little anxious and said, "Major General Long, these guards were personally selected by Commander Li to protect your safety. โ
Long Xiaotian waved his hand and said, "I don't need protection. Let the guards go back and tell Chief Li that I will get the information he wants in two or three days. โ
Yue Li complied.
Long Xiaotian glanced at the plaster flag on the top of the mountain, and said to Lu Han, "Commander Lu, has the battle plan been drawn up?" โ
Zhang Chong replied and explained the plan.
Long Xiaotian nodded as he listened, and said, "Okay." Tomorrow I will help you in the battle. Let the American-made cannon fire the first shot! โ
After Zhang Chong thanked him repeatedly, he said, "Brother Long, it's noon, I'm in for a treat." โ
"Okay." Long Xiaotian happily agreed.
The group talked and laughed and returned to the small village. Zhang Chong ordered someone to hold a banquet.
At the banquet, Long Xiaotian ate and drank, one person was seven or eight people, Zhang Chong had to order people to add vegetables, and he admired Long Xiaotian even more, and the strange people even ate and drank extraordinary. Long Xiaotian took out the cigarettes and alcohol brought by Yue Li in return, and surprised everyone with his generous spending.
In the evening, the mountain artillery battalion, field artillery battalion, and battle defense artillery battalion allocated by the ****** were in place. Zhang Chong commanded the three regiments to arrive at their respective designated locations.
Without further ado. Dawn the next day. The west slope and southwest slope of Yuwang Mountain were rumbled, and the cannonballs flew down to the top of the mountain, and some of the fortifications of the devils were blown up, the dust was flying, and the corpses rushed to the sky. Then, the Dian army on the left and right flanks attacked with shouts of killing.
At the top of Yuwang Mountain, the Japanese army captain Taro Nakayama ran out of the bunker in a hurry, raised the telescope and looked down, and couldn't help but gasp. I saw that the mountains to the west and southwest were full of Dian troops, wearing French-style steel helmets, gray military uniforms, agile and agile as apes, and swooping towards the top of the mountain.
His eyes rolled, and he thought, what should he do if he didn't think that there were so many Chinese troops and that it would be difficult for his own brigade to resist?
Yesterday, Taro Nakayama discovered that there was a large-scale assembly of Chinese troops at the foot of the mountain, and immediately sent a report to the wing commander asking for help, but the devil was entangled by the 183rd and 182nd divisions of the Dian Army at this time, and could not send reinforcements.
He turned his thief's eyes, calculated his heart, smiled contemptuously, and said to the signal corpsman beside him: "Order the artillery team to fire smoke bombs at the position of the Dian army." โ
The communications soldier was stunned for a moment, and then ran to convey it.
Knock, there was a burst of artillery, and hundreds of smoke bombs fell in front of the position of the Dian army, immediately raising a large cloud of smoke. The smoke blocked the sight of the Dian army, unable to cooperate with each other, and even the platoon commander could not direct the soldiers to move, and the Dian army fell into chaos.
A squad of the Dian army attacked early, was not bothered by smoke, and soon attacked halfway up the mountain, and then was bombarded by Japanese rifles, machine guns, and small artillery, and all of them died in an instant.
At this time, Zhang Chong, commander of the 184th Division, was staying in the headquarters and was a little confused when he saw the Japanese suddenly firing smoke bombs.
Zhang Chong was surrounded by Long Xiaotian. His eyes had a bit of the power of Sun Dasheng's eyes, piercing through the smoke and seeing the situation inside.
"Division Commander Zhang, the devil is very cunning, and if he uses smoke bombs to block his vision, our Dian army will not be able to cooperate with the contact, and it will be chaotic inside. Some of the Dian troops who broke out of the smoke area were besieged by the Japanese army and died in one squad. Long Xiaotian said.
"Ah, what can I do?" Zhang Chong rubbed his hands in a hurry when he heard this, raised his head instantly, and asked Long Xiaotian in surprise: "How can you see clearly?" โ
Long Xiaotian smiled, Zhiwu: "I guess." โ
Zhang Chong pursed his lips and said, "Hey, if only I had the banana fan of the Iron Fan Princess, blow the smoke to the Japanese army positions and make them blind!" โ
This sentence reminded Long Xiaotian. He remembered that when he was fighting devils in the Linyi Mountains, he used to fly at high speed and create strong winds, is it different now?
Yes, today too!
Long Xiaotian raised his legs and left.
"Brother Long, where are you going?" Zhang Chong asked.
"I'm going to find Princess Iron Fan!" Long Xiaotian said with a grin.
"You think you're a monkey!" Zhang Chong muttered dissatisfiedly.
Long Xiaotian stopped suddenly, turned his head, put on a straight face, and said, "Zhang Chong, remember, that's Sun Dasheng, you are not allowed to call Sun Monkey!" โ
Seeing Long Xiaotian's majestic expression, Zhang Chong rushed to a sense of fear and admiration, and subconsciously said, "Okay, listen to you." "He looks low.
Only then did Long Xiaotian walk out.
Seeing that Long Xiaotian had walked out twenty or thirty meters away, Zhang Chong's fright disappeared, and he couldn't help but be ashamed of the gaffe just now, and muttered in a low voice: "Hmph, my name is Sun Monkey, what can you do?" โ
Long Xiaotian's ears and eyes were superhuman, and when he heard Zhang Chong complaining in a low voice, he turned around and pointed his finger and reprimanded loudly: "Zhang Chong, warn you one last time, talk nonsense again, knock out your teeth!" โ
The sound was like thunder, the momentum was like a god, Zhang Chong closed his mouth tightly, and a trace of cold sweat soaked out of his forehead! His mind was spinning, how could he hear it from such a distance? Scary!
