Chapter Twenty-Eight: Fighting Xiaoshui Again (2)
Bai Dagui is now a soldier in the first battalion, one company and one platoon of the Red 18th Regiment. During the training in the western extension, Bai Dagui took the lead in complaining with the encouragement of Chen Dazhong, the deputy commander of the recruit battalion, and infected many new soldiers, and the cannibalistic battalion commander and several scum officers he exposed were also shot by the Red Army. The revenge of his younger brother was gone, and he no longer had anything to worry about, so he became a Red Army wholeheartedly.
These days since joining the army, Bai Dagui feels like he is living in a dream. I never thought that there was such a good army in this world: the head of the Red Army never beat and scolded the soldiers, and when he was camping, he would play with you when he saw who was not in a high mood, especially the deputy battalion commander Chen, who helped himself pick the blisters on his feet twice, and grew so big, except for his parents, he had never seen a second person so good to him; The soldiers never fought or played with each other, and when they encountered steep slopes and mountain dangers during the march, you supported me and took care of each other, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a group of brothers. Although he was a little bitter and tired, and he didn't have a military salary, when he thought of the regiment commander and political commissar who were as hungry and sleeping on the grass as himself when they marched in the Xiyan Mountains, and the Red Army helped him avenge himself, Bai Dagui felt that no matter how hard and tired it was, it was worth it. Anyway, the old lady died, the younger brother also died, and the home was gone, and the Red Army would be their own home in the future.
At the end of the training in Xiyan, the leaders saw that he had performed well and asked him to stay in the recruit company to cooperate with the cadres to educate the recruits. As soon as Bai Dagui heard this, he didn't know how many demons in this world were like the man-eating battalion commander, he was born in hunting, his marksmanship was good, and he had to destroy the enemy. So he asked Li Qing, Hong Chaoyuan, and Chen Dazhong to fight to the death, and wanted to go down to the combat company. Li Qing saw that he was innocent and positive, so he assigned him to a battalion and a company.
Bai Dagui came to this sharp soldier company, which is said to be brought out by the regiment commander from the Red 34th Division, and felt so strange, this company always walked in the front when marching and fighting, and when it was free, it was either to practice tactical movements or to practice team cooperation. The whole company was full of spirit and morale, but it was also calm and dignified, like a sharpened bayonet hidden in its sheath, which could come out of its sheath and stab the enemy in the heart at any moment.
The most incomprehensible thing is that the soldiers of the first company are particularly fond of learning culture during the march, and it is said that the regiment commander said that an army without culture is a stupid army. Therefore, from the company commander to the soldiers, each of them had to learn to write three words every day, and the instructor checked it on time, and he was not allowed to sleep if he could not complete the task. Who knew that in a few days, he would be able to write the three words Bai Dagui, how happy the old lady would be if she was alive.
When he attacked the county seat, Bai Dagui received a broken gun from a security regiment. When the first wave ambushed the Hunan 48th Brigade just now, Bai Dagui fired the first shot at [***] in his life, but unfortunately this shot was too old and too broken, and it still flew if it was aimed accurately. As a result, five shots were fired successively, and it seemed that only one hit was hit. Shame, shame, I can't imagine that I have been hunting for more than ten years and have this kind of ugliness.
Finally waited until the end of the battle, Bai Dagui followed the troops to rush to the road, found a 9-in-19 new 79 rifle, and collected 100 rounds of ammunition and 6 grenades, which was neatly equipped. As soon as the guns were checked and the rulers were corrected, the troops moved their positions. When the concealment was good and the battle preparations were ready, the enemy 47th Brigade rushed to send him to death.
Bai Dagui lay in ambush on the position of a company less than 70 meters away on the opposite side of the road, and saw the 47th Brigade running into the ambush circle in a neat and orderly manner as if it was out of the morning, and finally the squad leader's order to fire sounded in his ears. Bai Dagui hooked his two thumbs, and with a bang, an enemy on the opposite side fell in response.
The dull sound of heavy machine guns on the machine gun positions behind him and the crisp sound of Czech light machine guns were connected, and the Hunan army was beaten to pieces. Bai Dagui didn't have to think about the enemies who were piled up, the swarms of grenades and powerful machine gun fire were enough to stun them and tear them apart, Bai Dagui and his comrades' rifles were against the enemies who tried to jump off the road, no, a guy just jumped down the road with a gun, and Bai Dagui's bullets hit him into a free fall.
Under such concentrated and fierce firepower, the only way for the Hunan soldiers to save their lives was to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead. Any resistance will result in machine guns, rifle bullets, and overhead grenades from the opposite and front and forefront.
Zhang Liangji, who injured his wrist, felt that his 47th Brigade was now roasting on the flames of hell, and he didn't know when it would end. There seemed to be no chance of surrendering, and the other side just shot and killed repeatedly with light and heavy machine guns, submachine guns, and rifles until no one was standing in this area. Zhang Liangji thought hatefully: This is not a fucking war, it is simply a massacre.
This Red Army team is different from other Red Army teams! The other Red Army troops would charge with three shots, so that their own troops could resist on the spot, and perhaps repelled the attack, at least some of them could run out. This unit seems to have no money for bullets, and it is impossible to hear the sound of the charge horn at all, except for shooting and dropping bombs.
Zhang Liangji simply closed his eyes, no longer looking and no longer thinking.
It felt as if a century had passed before Zhang Liangji heard a voice in his ear, "Surrender the gun and don't kill, the Red Army will treat the prisoners preferentially", and it was finally over. When I opened my eyes, I saw a Red Army soldier pointing a gun at him, and the bayonet on his rifle was next to the tip of his nose.
Zhang Liangji slowly stood up, patted the soil on his body with his left hand, adjusted his military uniform, and said slowly: "I am Zhang Liangji, the commander of the 16th Division of the National Revolutionary Army, I want to see your commander, I want to tell him that I am very unconvinced to lose by engaging in a sneak attack like this!" ”
The recruit battalion commander Lei Ming felt that his recruit battalion performed really well today, during the first wave of ambushes, although the recruit battalion soldiers did not have guns, but the regiment commander gave each soldier in the recruit battalion 6 grenades, with the squad as a unit, the squad leader shouted 1, 2, 3 and threw them together, and the enemy collapsed before the grenades were thrown. By the time of the second wave of ambushes, the entire boot camp was already well-armed and had plenty of ammunition. Considering the poor marksmanship of the soldiers in the new barracks, as soon as he discussed with Lao Chang, he implemented the practice of shooting platoon guns in platoon units after centralized bombing. As soon as he threw two rounds of grenades and two rounds of guns, he saw the enemy on the road full of dead and wounded, and after another round of grenades, he saw the regiment commander rushing out of the mountains and forests with the first and second battalions, and the heavy machine guns also stopped firing, feeling that it was the turn of the new barracks to perform, and with a wave of their hands, the soldiers of the new barracks rushed up and took the lead in rushing towards the enemy. I didn't expect these new fighters to be so brave, and when they met the enemy's resistance, they either greeted with grenades or guns, and some directly did it with bayonets. By the time the regiment commander rushed up with the first and second battalions, Lao Tzu's new battalion had already begun to clean up the battlefield. I believe that after this real battle test, the regiment commander will no longer let his new barracks be a new barracks. Hehe, Lao Tzu turned out to be the main battalion commander of the 5th Division, and he should also get a combat battalion commander in the 18th Regiment.
Seeing Liu Yimin rushing onto the road, Lei Ming immediately greeted him. "Snap" a salute: "Report to the regiment commander, the recruit battalion is cleaning the battlefield, please instruct!" ”
Liu Yimin glanced at the recruit battalion commander who he was not very familiar with, returned the salute, and said: "The recruit battalion is doing a good job, let the soldiers hurry up and clean up the battlefield and prepare for the third wave of ambushes." ”
Lei Ming saluted again: "Yes, resolutely carry out the order." ”
Liu Yimin smiled: "I said thunder, are you still finished?" Keep in mind that it is not allowed to salute the chief on the battlefield to avoid unnecessary casualties. You convey this order of mine to the whole regiment. ”
"Yes, it is forbidden to salute the chief on the battlefield. I will definitely convey it to the whole group. ”
Liu Yimin was just about to say, "Go and carry out the order", when he saw Lei Ming and came over with a smile. "Regiment Commander, my new battalion is now strong, shouldn't it be called the fifth battalion?"
Liu Yimin said: "Didn't you say that you would be given three months to form combat effectiveness when you were in the passage? ”
Lei Ming said: "Isn't that that why we haven't done the work of recruit training?" We are the commander of the main battalion in the Fifth Division, and we are all charging into battle. ”
Liu Yimin looked at Lei Ming again, and felt that Lei Ming's unruly fighting spirit and peasant-like cunning were so similar to the hero Li Yunlong in the TV series "Bright Sword", so he said: "I know, go and carry out the order." ”
Lei Minggang ran away happily, and the commander of the artillery company, Li Chang, came over again, and it turned out that all the equipment of the artillery battalion directly under the 28th Army of the Hunan Army had been captured, and the shells were all five bases. Li Chang came to ask him for someone, after all, although his artillery company cadres are sufficient, the soldiers are short of manpower, and 12 mortars have been captured just now, and most of the soldiers have work. There are so many cannons that no one can't do.
Liu Yimin said impatiently: "Where do I have someone, you can figure it out yourself." It really didn't work, so I blew up the mountain artillery. ”
Li Chang was anxious when he heard this: "Regiment commander, before the war, you said that if you captured an artillery battalion, let me be the commander of the artillery battalion, and you blew up the artillery, don't you want me to be the battalion commander?" No, you can't cheat. ”
Liu Yimin was happy, pointed at Li Chang and said: "You pig brain, you still studied in the Soviet Union, why are you so unenlightened." Won't you choose a warrior among the captives? ”
"The commissar said that the prisoners needed to be educated, and they had to be asked if they wanted to join the Red Army."
"Won't you educate yourself? How can you just rely on the education of the political commissar, you want to exhaust the political commissar to death? ”
Li Chang excitedly took Liu Yimin's hand and said, "Yes, what should I do if the political commissar is tired?" I didn't think of it. You're so nice, my good captain. As long as you give an order, you will hit wherever you call, and the artillery battalion is absolutely unambiguous! ”
The angry Liu Yimin kicked Li Chang's buttocks: "You guy, you are not numb, the artillery battalion has not yet been established." Get lost! ”
The battlefield was quickly cleaned up, the prisoners and wounded soldiers were transferred to Xiaoshui Village, and the results of the battle were basically counted, a total of one division headquarters, one brigade headquarters, and two regiments of the enemy's 16th Hunan Division were annihilated, 3,512 enemy were killed, 320 wounded, and 320 people under the enemy's division commander Zhang Liangji were captured. The main reason why there were more killed and fewer prisoners was that after the first battle, the firepower of the 18th Regiment was multiplied. Two radio stations, 12 mountain guns and 5 base shells of a mountain artillery battalion, 12 60 mortars and 5 base mortar shells, 12 heavy machine guns, 72 light machine guns, 250 submachine guns, 188 pistols of various types, more than 2,200 rifles, more than 20,000 grenades and countless bullets were seized.
Looking at so many weapons and ammunition, Liu Yimin was a little worried, so many weapons have to be used, they can't be blown up or buried, if only the main force of the Red Army was here. It seems that the army will be expanded.
