Chapter 166: Interspersed with detours, rats and dogs (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)
The enemy was about to retreat, but Yang Tianfeng was not prepared to let them go like this. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Although the enemy is gathering in advance, it is inconceivable to concentrate more than 3,000 people like a serpent on one road. However, there was almost no opportunity for the enemy's separate advances, and the distance was only five or six miles, and even the infantry could respond and support each other very quickly.
It's just that there are no absolutes, and the enemy thinks he is safe, and even hopes that the opponent will attack one of them, and the other two roads can be reinforced to besiege. Of course, Yang Tianfeng would not act rashly, but he kept aiming at the enemy, waiting for the enemy to show his flaws.
The topography of the Yongshui junction made Yang Tianfeng feel that it was possible to make a fuss, and he made preparations for it. Now, he felt it was time to make a move.
In the Huanghuai Plain, the near-river terraces are formed under the influence of the Yellow Flood, and trough-shaped and saucer-shaped depressions are formed in many places due to repeated river diversions. Due to the long-term accumulation of water, a closed lake depression is formed, and the bottom of the lake is stagnant, and the water retention around it is poor.
"At the pace of the enemy's retreat, here they will stay overnight. Our army is to intersperse with strong troops at night and cut off the connection between its left flank and the center. Yang Tianfeng nodded the map, "There are several lakes and depressions between the two enemies, and the enemy brigade can only attack and advance along this road if it wants reinforcements, and it is difficult to deploy its troops. If you force a detour, it will take a lot of time, but we can calmly block it. In this way, we will be able to give full play to the superiority of forces on the inner line, block the enemy brigade in a small area, and cut off the enemy forces on the left flank. ā
Five or six thousand men and horses, just let three thousand enemies go, Yang Tianfeng can't be reconciled no matter what. It was just with the presence of a main regiment of the Gui army that it struck hard, which greatly extended the time for the enemy to prepare for the next sweep.
The general idea and plan have been decided, and Yang Tianfeng's gaze swept over the officers and staff officers below.
"Let our two detachments be responsible for dividing the enemy and blocking the enemy from meeting on both sides!" Chen Dalong's second detachment did not fight many battles, and it was not that it was not strong, but on the contrary, it continued to draw veterans from other units, and the training was extremely strict, but most of the personnel were the old foundations of Yang Tianfeng, and guarding the base area reassured him the most.
"I am relieved that you are familiar with the terrain and that you have plenty of troops. But to leave me a brigade, I want to pin down and attack the enemy in the middle. Yang Tianfeng nodded, and his gaze turned to Mo Dehong, the captain of the Jiang detachment and the commander of the Gui army, "The task of encircling and destroying the enemy's left flank troops will be handed over to the two. It is estimated that there are 1,000 enemies, less than 300 devils, and the rest are all puppet troops. ā
"Yes, sir." Captain Zhao Jiasheng stood up and saluted, without saying a word.
"Yes, Chief Yang." Mo Dehong was a little late, and immediately attracted the horizontal eyes of several Gui officers, and he hurriedly added: "Please rest assured, Chief Yang, our regiment has not fought once or twice with the devils, and has never been timid. ā
Yang Tianfeng smiled and nodded: "The combat power of the Guangxi Army is strong, Tianfeng has heard of it for a long time, and it is really exciting to be able to witness it with your own eyes this time." As he spoke, his face turned pale, "When encircling and annihilating the enemy, all units must bravely rush and kill and destroy the enemy as quickly as possible." I will muster enough artillery fire to give you maximum support in the darkness and in the darkness of the terrain. In addition, I also prepared a few big dishes for the devils to try. ā
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.
The night grew thicker and thicker, and the villages, the woods, the potholes, and the ditches, all seemed to have fallen into a mysterious silence at once.
In the midst of this silence, there were countless warriors running rapidly, their figures flickering among the ravines. Most of them were lightly dressed, but almost everyone carried a bundle of straw or hay on their backs.
Mordhorn didn't quite understand it at first, but he quickly figured it out. Interspersed in the wilderness, the soles of your feet will soon be covered with mud, which will become heavier and heavier, which will not only consume physical strength, but also affect your speed. In addition, there are some lakes and swamps in between, and if they are not very deep, paving the road with hay is a shortcut.
Just as Mo Dehong thought, the divided troops zigzagged forward under the guidance of the guide, and when they encountered difficult sections, they avoided the main road in such a way, and took advantage of the night to advance in the field in a roundabout way, interspersed between the two enemies. The besieging troops also used this method to form a situation of outflanking and encircling the enemy on the left flank.
"There was once a unit with very poor weapons and equipment, but it was extremely tenacious in its will to fight, and it fought valiantly against the most equipped army in the world. Well, in terms of firepower, the gap between the current Chinese X army and the Japanese devils is much greater. But they won in the end, and the tunnel battles were a must, and they were especially accustomed to interspersing at night, and could penetrate at most seventy miles per night. Yang Tianfeng sat in the command headquarters, waiting for the telegrams interspersed with the troops, but chatted with the staff officers with great emotion.
"Chief Yang, is there really such an army?" A staff officer smiled and expressed disbelief.
"There will be, even if not now, there will be in the future." Yang Tianfeng didn't laugh, but said very seriously: "My goal is to train the troops into such a strong army, no matter how much you bomb planes, artillery, or tanks, you can't destroy our army's ......."
A staff officer hurriedly walked in, and Yang Tianfeng also stopped talking and nodded at the staff officer.
"The Chen detachment called, and the interspersed troops were in place." The staff officer read the telegram aloud.
Yang Tianfeng looked at his watch, it was nearly five hours, and it was still within his expectations. And because of the need to strive for covert action, it was later than the more circuitous besieging troops.
"Order, attack as planned." Yang Tianfeng got up and gave an order loudly.
In order to annihilate the enemy on the left flank, he first feinted to attack the middle lane, the purpose of which was to contain the enemy, and secondly, to make the enemy unable to distinguish the direction of the main attack and fall into a short-term chaos. The so-called capture of the thief first captures the king, and attacks the enemy in the middle, which is easier to make the enemy believe that it is true.
Yang Tianfeng, who was uncomfortable without using tricks, prepared an unexpected attack for the enemy this time, which the enemy could never have dreamed of, and it was also a surprise to his own people.
The moon was buried in the deep clouds, and the wind blew the branches of the trees.
Wang Jianxiong, the captain of the third brigade of the second detachment, held the binoculars, observed for a while, and handed it to Cao Xiaoding, who grinned, "I don't need this, I can also estimate the distance." ā
Seeing Wang Jianxiong's eyes, Cao Xiaoding hurriedly took the telescope and pretended to look ahead.
Wang Jianxiong was very serious on the surface, but when he saw Cao Xiaoding, he couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart, he still remembered the scene when Yang Tianfeng was still a small squad leader when he caught this Cao Xiaonail and sent it to Yang Tianfeng......
Cao Xiaoding, whose name is Cao Jiasheng, was originally a stealing chickens and dogs and selling meat, and he had a few tricks to catch and tame dogs. He was later captured by the patrol and almost killed. When the patrolman saw that he was about to choke, he pushed him out of the prisoner's cart and threw him into the alkaline field. In the middle of the night, a torrential rain woke him up.
According to him, this is to touch the nose of Hades, and he has chosen a life in vain, and he will earn money for as many years as he lives. So he stopped stealing dogs, and wrapped a broom pimple in a red cloth around his waist, and carried a machete on his back, and he specialized in robbing the crops. When the honest farmer and the farmer who came to the market to do business walked past him, he suddenly jumped out of the sorghum field. This trick often scared those people half to death, and he took out all the money on his body before releasing them.
Later, this guy felt that jumping around was really untechnical, so he wanted to get a gun to upgrade. But the gun was too expensive, and he couldn't afford it. Once, for two silver dollars, he bought a "water bead" bullet from a soldier.
This bullet is a red head and a green butt, and it looks quite scary. The soldier also told him that if the firing pin hit the green buttocks, the bullets could fly out and kill people. Hearing this, Cao Jiasheng suddenly opened his mouth, and took this bullet to scare the croppers.
He held a "water bead" bullet in one hand and a three-inch iron nail in the other, threatening the croppers who came back from the market, "Do you give money?" If you dare not to give it, I will nail it! The farmer was also afraid, for he did not know what kind of high-tech weapon he was holding, and he usually threw down his money and ran away. Since then, there has been an additional local mantra: Do you give money or not? If you dare not to give it, I will nail it! The name of Cao Xiaonail spread.
At that time, Yang Tianfeng fiddled with the red-headed and green buttocks in his hand, looking incredulous, and aimed the bullet at everyone in the room, holding his right hand weakly, as if holding a big iron nail, "Do you give money?" If you dare not to give it, I will nail it! This, that's too creative. ā
At that time, there was an uncontrollable burst of laughter in the room, and the loudest laugh seemed to be himself, right?
Cao Xiaoding respectfully handed the telescope to Wang Jianxiong, interrupting his thoughts and stifling his almost burst of laughter.
Wang Jianxiong never imagined that Yang Tianfeng would keep this guy who was a joke. When we met again, this guy had become a petty officer in the form of a dog, along with a few men and a pack of dirt dogs.
"Sir, I think it's just right to come from here." Although Cao Xiaoding is also a petty officer, he is still very unconfident in serious soldiers.
Wang Jianxiong nodded and said, "Then come from here, Chief Yang said, the general attack is subject to you." ā
"Okay, okay." Cao Xiaoding walked into the dog group, touched the dog's head one by one, comforted the somewhat restless dog, pointed to the enemy camp with faint lights in the distance, and whispered, "If you go in a while, there will be delicious food, bear with it again!" ā
According to Cao Xiaoding's command, several subordinates quickly cut the fuse according to a certain length and placed it on the explosive bag on the dog's back.
Cao Xiaoding personally lit the fuse, "Go!" With a shout, he let go of the dog's leash, pointed ahead again, and slammed the dog's head, and the earth dog swooped out, spreading the dog's legs, and zigzag and leaped straight to the enemy's camp.
One by one, the dogs were released, with green smoke on their bodies, and they galloped silently into the distance. (To be continued.) )
