Chapter 214: A Magnificent Show (5)
Since the army will come sooner or later, then Han Yunhua is not a person who sits idly by, believing that the first strike is the strongest and then the first attack will suffer, he decided to strike first, disrupting the layout of the army, and forcing the army to change the battle plan. As we all know, the change of the battle plan is not a trivial matter, and it has to go through many procedures, and it cannot be completed in a day or two.
On January 16, 1939, Han Yunhua and others rushed to Jining, where the headquarters of the 77th Division of Reading Power was located. In Han Yunhua's view, the current troop layout of the army is like a dumbbell, large on both sides and small in the middle. Neither Datong nor Zhangjiakou could be provoked by Chen Geng's division, but the defense of these areas between Datong and Zhangjiakou was very fragile. Maybe for other troops, the devils of a brigade are still very threatening, but for Han Yunhua's department, the army of a brigade can no longer have any feelings, isn't it just a brigade? If it is extinguished, it will be done. Therefore, Tianzhen has become Han Yunhua's main attack direction this time, as long as he breaks through from Tianzhen into the hinterland of the area occupied by the Yue army, it will be completely necessary to mobilize the Yue army.
Besides, Han Yunhua is going to fight a classic battle example for Fu Zuo this time, in Han Yunhua's words, to teach these guys how to fight.
Since most of the high-ranking generals of the Yue army were holding meetings in Beiping, the defense of these county towns handed over to Han Yunhua's headquarters was extremely tight, so as to prevent Han Yunhua's headquarters from receiving news and launching a sneak attack on these county seats.
At this time, Mr. Peng, Han Yunhua, Fu Zuoyi, Chen Geng, Jiang Yunshan and others were waiting for news from the scouts at the former enemy headquarters in Jining.
After a while, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion directly under the 77th Division of Reading Li came in and reported: "Report chief: The specific situation in Tianzhen County has been investigated, and in recent times, the defense of the Yue army has been extremely tight, and there are two blockade lines from Xinpingbao to Tianzhen County, the first is at Wayaokou outside Tianzhen City, and the second is at the Sanfo Temple. Although the garrisons of these two blockade lines were less than one squadron, there were a large number of puppet troops, and the puppet armies of each blockade line were full of one regiment. These people can't stop our army's attack, but it is impossible for us to bypass these two blockade lines, as long as our side starts fighting, the devils in Tianzhen County will definitely receive the news. In addition, a large area of fortifications has been built outside the county seat of Tianzhen County, and there are enough permanent firepower points alone for 60, all of which are made of reinforced concrete materials. Although the words of the Second Artillery were not long, the information they said was very important.
"It seems that the army has been prepared for a long time! But it doesn't matter, since you can't get around, then fight it, anyway, our purpose this time is to take Tianzhen, as for how to take it is just a means, I personally only focus on the final result. After listening to the words of the second artillery, Han Yunhuaning said.
Although Han Yunhua said this, most of the people present were not people who only looked at the superficial phenomena, and they all heard that he was insincere, or that he couldn't eat grapes and insisted that grapes were sour.
"Master Han, hehe, what a trick to repair the plank road and darken Chen Cang! Master Han's purpose this time is to attack the large and small coal mines around Datong, but he wants to provoke devils here, and the plan is not small! Fu Zuoyi said with a smile, as a military commander, he quickly understood Han Yunhua's strategy. On the one hand, he resisted the army in Tianzhen and fully mobilized the army, and on the other hand, he attacked Datong by surprise, dragging the defenders in Datong City, and then directly attacked the large and small coal mines.
This trick is not clever, but as long as it is used well, it is a very effective move, and it is a trick that makes the enemy know that there is a trick and must be the scalp. And Han Yunhua's use this time is not too good, it is obvious that he is turning the tiger away from the mountain, and then secretly Chen Cang. As long as the commander of the army is not a fool, he can understand Han Yunhua's intentions, and if Fu Zuoyi wants to come to Han Yunhua's trick, it is difficult to say that the army will not be fooled.
"Hahaha, it's nothing, the carving insect is small, it's just smiling and generous, it can't get into the eyes of the Fang family, but it's more than enough to deal with this group of little devils." Han Yunhua replied.
Then Han Yunhua ordered: "Now start assigning combat tasks, the battle in Tianzhen is commanded by Chen Geng, the goal is to take the county seat of Tianzhen within one day, and I will leave a special operations squadron under your command." The battle in Datong was under my personal command, and the purpose was to rescue the Chinese miners in the Datong mining area. The troops participating in the battle included the 77th Assault Brigade of the 77th Reading Division and the 1st Assault Brigade of the 300th Division, the 88th and 99th Regiments of the 77th Division, the Engineer Regiment, the Artillery Regiment, and the Fire Support Regiment under the command of Chen Geng, and the 1st Assault Brigade of the 300th Division and the Saber Special Operations Brigade under our command. The specific battle plan was: Before dusk on the 18th, Chen Geng's troops must reach Xinping Fort, and they must break through the two lines of defense of the Yue army unknowingly, and how to break through will be handed over to the special combat team. After breaking through these two lines of defense, the whole army quickly followed up, and it was necessary to rush to Tianzhen City in the early morning of the 19th to launch a surprise attack on Tianzhen City, and the intensity of the attack must be fierce. It doesn't matter how I fight, but I must hurt the devils in Tianzhen to the point where they have to ask for help from the Datong army, but we must pay attention to casualties. After the war starts on your side, our side will have to wait, and we will not be able to start the war until the reinforcements from Datong leave. Alright, let's do it, don't let the little devils wait. As the officers of the command withdrew one after another, Han Yunhua also beckoned Mr. Peng, Fu Zuoyi and others to prepare to rush to the front line.
On the afternoon of January 18, Han Yunhua led his troops straight to Pangjiayao Village, Guojiayao Township, 40 miles outside Datong City. Along the way, the 12 strongholds of the army were taken by the special combat team unconsciously, and there were still special personnel to guard the telephone of the army at each stronghold, until they arrived in Datong City, Pangjiayao Village, Guojiayao Township, and the army was still unaware. With this hand alone, Han Yunhua's subordinates shocked Fu Zuoyi and the others, what kind of army is this, especially those small troops wearing dark green strange military uniforms, they can't be judged by common sense, Fu Zuoyi saw with his own eyes that thirteen such soldiers easily put a huge stronghold of a small army stationed in a squad plus a puppet army infantry battalion, and the whole battle didn't even fire a single shot, let alone a single enemy who slipped through the net, When 67 corpses of the Yue Army, 34 corpses of the puppet army and 268 prisoners of the puppet army were carried in front of Fu Zuoyi, Fu Zuoyi simply thought that these guys were monsters.
It's incredible, 13vs370 and it's still a complete victory, there are no casualties in itself, not even scratched skin, and the scene at that time was as weird as it was. If it weren't for the fact that the blood on those devils was still hot, and the wounds were now stabbed, Fu Zuoyi really thought that Han Yunhua had found such a large group of people for him to act.
However, after fighting with the Yue army for such a long time, Yue himself and the Chinese Fu Zuoyi can still distinguish clearly, when he took off the pants of a dead corpse, and saw the dead body wearing something like a diaper, he knew that this was a fake ghost, and only a ghost would wear this diaper-like ghost thing.
As the speed of the troops moving south accelerated, Fu Zuoyi was shocked by the small army of only more than 300 people, as long as there was a possible goal in every village, the small army would solve it as quickly as possible, and it would never hinder the advance of the large army. In order to really understand this small army, Fu Zuoyi also took the risk of performing a mission with a small unit, a small stronghold of 120 people, all of which were solved within half an hour, and all the puppet troops were killed in their sleep except for the four duty rooms. The strong combat effectiveness and cruelty shown by this small army made all the officers of the Jin Sui Army, including Fu Zuoyi, feel shocked, this is completely a team composed of devils, and they are invincible.
After the shock, Fu Zuoyi's mind suddenly became active, as a senior commander, he could not fail to see the value of this army, such a small force is simply insignificant to Chinese mainland, which has tens of millions of square kilometers, even in the land of North China. But in a close battle, a small force that is extremely strong enough can be the last straw that overwhelms the balance of victory.
As early as September last year, a high-ranking spy planted by the Kuomintang political axe in the army sent back a top-secret piece of information, which said that Han Yunhua's department may have a special forces trained by Germany and Western countries, and that this special force is extremely strong in combat effectiveness, which has aroused strong concern among the army, and that Liu Shengjun, the father of the special forces of the company, has already led the special forces he trained to Beiping, ready to fight with the special forces of Han Yunhua's department. Originally, this top-secret information should have been taken seriously, but at that time, almost all the military and political dignitaries of the Nationalist Axe were concerned about the Battle of Saibei that affected the entire northern China and the preparation for the upcoming Battle of Wuhan, so Chiang Kai-shek just looked at this information and asked Dai Li to forward it to Yan Xishan, the commander of the Second War Zone, and let Yan Xishan deal with it himself. As a result, Yan Xishan saw that it was just a small army with less than a few hundred people, and directly threw this information of great military value into the trash, even Fu Zuoyi, who was in front of the old commander at the time, also scoffed at this, what kind of big waves can a small army of several hundred people make.
Now it seems that the special forces mentioned in the intelligence should be this mysterious small force, and the strong combat effectiveness shown by this small unit may not be able to compare with these three hundred people. If Han Yunhua knew that Fu Zuoyi gave him such an evaluation of the special combat team he had trained with his own hands, I don't know how Han Yunhua would feel.
