Chapter 170, Set fire and burn the mountain
The southern part of Guangdong was occupied by the Japanese, but they were not feeling comfortable now. Early in the morning, the Jian-5 from the Dawangcun airfield bombed them non-stop.
The fifth master, who was hanging a 50kg aerial bomb, threw the bomb down whenever he saw the Japanese army, regardless of how many Japanese soldiers there were below.
Running on a three-wheeled motorcycle with a bucket? Fried, running a car? Bombed, three or two Japanese soldiers teamed up to go to the countryside? Bombing, Japanese barracks? Bombing, anyway, it is bombing, bombing, bombing, bombing when you see the Japanese army, regardless of the profit, what you want is to bomb the Japanese army to the point that they tremble as long as they hear the voice of Jian-Wu.
This plan was handed over to the ants by Lu Qiang in the early hours of the morning, before going to bed, and asked him to implement it.
However, this plan was not very successful, day by day, the Japanese army was indeed frightened, and they didn't even dare to go out of the door, and they had to wear civilian clothes when they went out. Although I am afraid, it does not mean that I am afraid, and I will not be afraid as soon as I hear the voice of Jianwu. But what is certain is that the whistling sound of the fifth master planted a seed in their hearts, but this kind of seed may take root and sprout, or it may die before it sprouts.
However, in order to make the devils afraid when they heard the voice of Jian-Wu, they continued to go out the next day to bomb the Japanese army.
Next, the 251st Division, which stayed in Shaoguan, did not dispatch, and it was always planes to bomb the Japanese army.
It lasted until July, when the 251st Division moved.
On July 1, early in the morning, the four brigades of the 250th Division divided into four routes and set off in a mighty manner to kill the Japanese army. And this station has not been demolished, Shanbao Zongwu and others are still inside, leaving four battalions to protect the station, and this is used as the general command post.
Four brigades set out, but the weapons and equipment they carried were relatively light, and the heavy firepower was left at the station, such as 152 howitzers and 122 cannons, only 105 howitzers and 107 rocket launchers.
"That 251st Division has set off?" Early in the morning, Zhang Fakui was woken up and gave him this notice.
"That's right, the 251st Division was divided into four routes, two went to Qingyuan, one went to Huizhou, and one went to Heyuan." Deputy Commander Yu Hanmou pointed to the map and said.
"Soldiers in four ways? How many people are there in one division? actually returned to the army in four ways, I see, it's almost the same to die. Zhang Fakui said disdainfully.
"Not necessarily, the combat effectiveness of the 41st Group Army is also obvious to everyone, maybe they can really ......"
Before Yu Hanmou could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Fakui.
"I know what you mean, forget it, don't mention it, let's wait and see what happens, if they really have the ability, I don't mind sending troops."
Guangzhou, now the base camp of the Japanese army in Guangdong, the 251st Division sent troops, with their spies in China, naturally knew that as early as when the 251st Division went south, they were nervously on guard and waited for the 251st to come.
"General, the 251st Division of China attacked from three directions, including two brigades going to Qingyuan, one brigade in Huizhou, and one brigade in Heyuan." The correspondent said with a telegram.
"The people of China are quite arrogant, and they dare to divide their troops." The commander of the 21st Army, Toshiyoshi Ando, said with some unhappiness, as if he felt that he was being slighted.
"General, this Chinese army should not be underestimated, they are the 41st and 41st Group Army." The division commander of the 18th Division has long been admonished.
"I know, I don't despise them, on the contrary, I attach great importance to them, and I order ......" Ando Toshiyoshi suddenly said in a loud voice, "Lieutenant General Seiichi Kuna, all the two brigades of the branch are sent to Qingyuan, as a division regiment, I believe that you can stop the people of China." ”
"Hayi!" Jiu Nacheng answered.
"Lieutenant General Kizaburo Hamamoto, your 104th Division, do your best to hold the source of the river, and there must not be a trace of mistakes."
"Hayi!" Kizaburo Hamamoto nodded.
"The remaining Taiwanese mixed brigades and independent infantry teams are all blocked in Huizhou, and your two divisions are ready to support at any time."
"Hayi!" Seiichi Kuna and Kizaburo Hamamoto responded at the same time.
"Next, Chief of Staff, we will discuss the specific battle plan."
The Japanese army, which had already been prepared, was waiting for the 251st Division at the location, and the four major battlefields were all selected by the Japanese army, which were here in Dawan Town, blocking the Fifth Brigade by the river, and relying on the mountains to build defensive positions and occupy key points. Qingyun Mountain in Huizhou and Da Mo Mountain in Heyuan all lean on the mountain and occupy favorable locations.
The first to come into contact with the Japanese army was the 7th Brigade on the snowy mountains, where they faced the 18th Infantry Wing of the 55th Division, the 114th Infantry Wing, and the 13th Independent Rapid-Fire Artillery Brigade.
The drones released could easily find the Japanese troops hiding in the mountains, and they arranged their defensive positions and waited for the Seventh Brigade to send them to the door.
"Your Excellency Dazuo, the sentry found the Shina army, which is about 12 kilometers away from us." In a ravine, the temporary garrison of the Japanese army, the defenders' Osaite received a notice from the sentry.
"Yo Xi, inform the whole army, prepare for battle. Also, report to the general that we have already engaged the enemy here. ”
"Hayi!" ……
"There is a snow-capped mountain in front, the altitude is about more than 1,800 meters, the mountain is more dangerous, and the Japanese army has eight or nine thousand people on it, so it is not easy to fight."
"If it's not easy to fight, you have to fight, but you said to throw such a few hundred coins on this mountain****** hey, what?"
"Well, this, wouldn't it be too much."
"Which one, if you fight, you have to win at all costs, if you want to play a gentleman, then what kind of war will you fight."
"That's not what I meant."
"Let the artillery set the position away, let the artillery go for half an hour, and then let a battalion rush to try it and see the firepower arrangement of the little devils."
"Yes!"
The artillery was immediately prepared, the 105 howitzers laid down their hoes, and the 107 rocket launchers loaded with rockets.
"Fire!"
The howitzers immediately opened fire, and the rockets were depleted in two seconds with the rocket launchers whizzing.
"Boom Boom~~"
Not too strong fortifications, under fire, large swaths were destroyed. The commander of the 7th Brigade took a telescope and looked at the Japanese positions covered by artillery fire, but did not find any clues.
Half an hour passed quickly, and the hill was ploughed by artillery, and all the trees and weeds on the hill were turned into the earth, and the bare rocks were blown to pieces.
The smoke of gunpowder on the mountain gradually dissipated, and the battalion that was ready to attack was ready, and the stragglers rushed towards the hill in formation.
Although there was no movement on the mountain, they did not dare to relax, and who knew where the Japanese would rush out.
All the way to the Japanese position, there was no resistance, it seems that all the Japanese soldiers in the position were killed, but there are no corpses to be seen.
The brigade commander frowned, this situation is very wrong now, "What are the devils doing?" Let their battalion withdraw. "Out of vigilance, the brigade commander told them to withdraw anyway.
"Boom Boom~~"
The Japanese position, which had been covered by artillery fire, suddenly exploded violently, and the whole head was planted with explosives, and the explosion shook the ground, and the battalion on the Japanese position was destroyed in this explosion center by the energy released in an instant.
"!" The brigade commander crackled, "Find out where the devil is for me, and blow it up hard." ”
All of a sudden, a battalion of people was wiped out, although he knew that they would return to the team in three days, but he was still unhappy, he was actually calculated by the Japanese army, and this time he had to be recovered.
The picture transmitted by the drone showed that the Japanese were hiding on the back of the mountain, but they were retreating, and as for the first position, it should have been used by them to confuse the Seventh Brigade, and a large amount of explosives were planted under this position, waiting for the Seventh Brigade to send someone up.
If you find the traces of the Japanese soldiers, it will be easy to do, but they are not in a hurry to open fire, but to track these Japanese soldiers to see where they will go, and if they go to the camp, then it is just right, and they will serve it together.
The Japanese did not go anywhere, but went up a mountain behind them and began to build positions.
Since they couldn't get the information, then they were useless, so a large amount of artillery fire flew towards these Japanese troops, and the flames of the explosion instantly swallowed these Japanese troops, and about a squadron of Japanese troops, before the position was built, they were destroyed under the artillery fire.
"Inform the Air Force, let them send bombers, the bombs will be incendiary, and labor and management will burn them." said with a hideous face.
The air force that received support naturally did not dare to slack off, but when it saw that the B-45 bombing was requested, and the ammunition was still incendiary, its expression was a little strange, but it still followed the request of the commander of the seventh brigade, loaded all the incendiary bombs, and flew to the snowy mountains.
Ten B-45s took off, loaded with incendiary bombs, and headed for the snowy mountains.
The 7th Brigade marked all the possible locations of the Japanese army through drones and sent them to the Air Force, which only needed to drop bombs according to these coordinates.
From Dawang Village to Snow Mountain, it took two hours at the earliest, and during this period, the Sixth Brigade attacking Huizhou was stopped by the Japanese army at Qingyun Mountain.
The Sixth Brigade, which was stopped, unceremoniously threw shells directly onto the mountain, without stopping for a moment, as if it was going to blow up the entire mountain.
The commander of the 6th Brigade looked at the almost bombed hill, and then did not hesitate to commit two battalions.
The defenders were a mixed brigade composed of bends, a group of teams that were worse than the Japanese Army's C Division, and it was okay to bully ordinary people, but when it really started, the artillery bombardment of the Sixth Brigade scared them to withdraw to the second line of defense, and then the Sixth Brigade easily occupied the first line of defense of the Japanese army. The performance of the bending army, Jiu Nacheng had a liver pain, and quickly drank some wine to press and tender.
"Incompetent, rubbish!" Jiu Nacheng scolded, and the brigade commander of the mixed brigade was bloodied by the dog he scolded from the phone, and he didn't dare to squeak at all.
At the same time, the B-45 also reached the snow-capped mountains, and from the air, it looked like a barrier, separating the north and the south.
According to the coordinate marking, the pilot flew over the coordinates in a B-45, ready to drop the bomb.
The Japanese army saw the huge roar of the B-45's turbine engine early in the morning, but they didn't dare to act rashly, and could only look coldly at the huge plane in the sky.
