Section 3 Battle XIII
The change is sudden. /.0M\\ Suddenly! The headquarters gave the order to fight. It was heard that some members were not allowed to go out without permission, and anyone who needed to go out had to get the approval of the intelligence officer, Li Anding. At the same time, an order was given that all personnel were ready to go at any time. These two orders caused Ji Feixiang's vigilance, and she felt that something big must happen.
"Sister Ying, the Japanese are going to fight Mandalay, why didn't that Simmons see him coming?" Ji Feixiang asked Lin Yueying tentatively.
"Who knew where these Americans went." Lin Yueying lowered her head to clean up Dongzhi, but she was very vigilant in her heart, these two urgent orders were actually aimed at Ji Feixiang, and the Battle of Lashio had begun. The fish is about to enter the net, and if Ji Feixiang notices it at this time, the fish may be unhooked.
"Strange to say, the British haven't been here lately." Ji Feixiang put two pieces of clothing into her backpack. Jiao smiled and said, "Sister Ying, where are we going?" ”
"Wait for the order, pack your things, and set off as soon as you give the order." Lin Yueying sighed, the things of a soldier are simple. Even female soldiers don't have many things, and they can be cleaned up in a few clicks.
In the past few days, Li Anding ordered Lin Yueying to closely monitor Ji Feixiang, which made Lin Yueying very embarrassed. The nature of Ji Feixiang's work determined that she would have to come into constant contact with British or Americans. Intelligence can be easily obtained. As a liaison officer, Ji Feixiang can run around reasonably and pass on information relatively easily, which makes her very headache. In the end, she could only suppress people as her boss, and simply bring Ji Feixiang with her when she went out, which could minimize her power.
Ji Feixiang is still digging for information. In fact, her fate has been reversed several times between life and death, and Li Anding feels that it is too dangerous to let this spy operate in the headquarters, and at this critical moment, the slightest omission will cause everything to fail. Li Anding telegraphed Zhuang Jihua three times to request the immediate arrest of Ji Feixiang, but Zhuang Jihua called back three times and refused; Li Anding had no choice but to retreat and ask the headquarters to move to Lashio immediately, which was rejected by Zhuang Jihua, Zhuang Jihua told Li Anding in the telegram to stabilize Ji Feixiang for three days, and after three days, everything was settled.
In order to prevent Ji Feixiang, Lin Yueying came up with these two rules, but Li Anding did not completely pin his hopes on them, so he also made another preparation, once Ji Feixiang moved, he would be arrested immediately.
Three days, see how much time is about to pass. But before the situation in Lashio came, the atmosphere in the headquarters of the Mandalay Expeditionary Force became more and more depressing, and faint cannon sounds could be heard in the distance, and the fighting was getting closer and closer to Mandalay.
Yu Chengwan had already led the headquarters of the New Eighth Army to withdraw to Mandalay, and the New 44th Division and the New 28th Division had also retreated to Mandalay and entered various preset positions outside Mandalay. The Japanese offensive suddenly became fierce, and the new 46th Division, which was relatively easy to block, became more difficult.
"Within a day. Our army retreated for ten miles, why did the little devil suddenly get anxious? Gong Chu stared at the map and muttered to himself, although the Japanese army attacked in the first two days, it was not strong, and the pressure of the new 46th Division was still relatively close, but the Japanese army strengthened the attack, and the pressure on the new 46th Division immediately became very great.
"It seems that the commander's estimate of three days is correct. The 56th Division and the 22nd Division are about to return to their positions, and Shinichi Tanaka should be trying to entangle us. Ran Wei said lightly. After he led the new 28th Division to withdraw to Mandalay, the command of the new 28th Division was transferred to Yu Chengwan.
To He Wei's surprise, the Expeditionary Force Command is now a spectator. The supreme commander Gong Chu and below all lost power, although Gong Chu was the deputy chief of staff. But the supreme commander of the Mandalay Blocking Battle was Yu Chengwan, so the entire long-range army headquarters had nothing to do in Mandalay, and Gong Chu's original material transportation work was also stopped because Lashio was facing a major battle, and the remaining materials were either distributed to the New Eighth Army and the Kou Army. All the explosives that can't be pulled away are piled up. Ready to destroy at any time.
This situation made He Wei and Gong Chu a little helpless, they didn't understand why the headquarters of the expeditionary force couldn't withdraw to Lashio in advance, and Ji Feixiang's situation was still a secret.
The phone rang, Gong Chu grabbed the phone, and Yu Chengwan's voice came from the microphone: "Deputy Chief of Staff Gong, why hasn't the headquarters retreated yet?" ”
"Brother Shi Jian, can I leave without an order?" Gong Chu replied helplessly: "Commander Yu." You hit yours, don't worry about us, it is estimated that as long as the fight starts, we will leave soon. ”
Gong Chu put down the phone without even asking about the battle situation, Yu Chengwan was anxious, after the Japanese army strengthened the offensive, the pressure on the new 46th Division was very great. The Japanese attacked in three directions, or frontally. or flank and rear bypass, the new 46th Division is insufficient. Forced to retreat step by step, the losses rose sharply.
Fortunately, the new 44th Division and the new 28th Division rushed back at this time, otherwise Yu Chengwan would have transferred the Lu Ruishan Independent Brigade defending the city to fight and block the attack. The predecessor of this brigade was the Fifth Theater Command Guard Regiment, which was well-equipped and had strong combat effectiveness. Mixed into a brigade, so Zhuang Jihua and Yu Chengwan both wanted this brigade to serve as the garrison of Mandalay.
Yu Chengwanwang put down the phone, the phone rang again, grabbed the phone, but he was afraid.
"Commander Yu, Shinichi Tanaka has intensified the attack. It means that Lashio is about to fight,... Claws and the sky. The Japanese attack will inevitably be more intense, and their aim is to suck our army into Mandalay, so I suggest that you draw one from each of the New 28th Division, the New 44th Division, and the Independent Brigade. regiment, join the blocking force. ”
Yu Chengwan put down the phone and thought for a while. Tanaka Shinichi couldn't help but applaud the idea, and when Tanaka Shinichi saw the new reinforcements, he must have thought that the expeditionary force was still fighting in Mandalay, and he was not aware of the situation in Lashio, so it was possible to slow down the pace of the attack.
After this communist bandit really figured it out, Yu Chengwan scolded with a smile, and then transferred a regiment from each unit to the new 46th Division overnight, and pulled it up to block the attack.
At dawn, the milky white mist drifted through the mountains, and the woods appeared and disappeared in the mist, and everything seemed to be covered with a light veil for the green giant, and the birds were silent. There was silence in the mountains and forests, and the dew rolled on the leaves, dripping down the leaves, and splattering on the steel helmets.
Through the light veil and green leaves, rows of soldiers stood neatly under the trees, they looked so tired, their faces emaciated, most of them in tattered uniforms, but their eyes were resolute, and their waists were straight.
The standard-bearer held the military flag high, accompanied by the flag guards, walked to the front of the queue with his head held high, and then planted the military flag on the ground with force.
"Rite over!"
With this shout, all the soldiers' hands were lowered. Masao Watanabe walked to the military flag with a command knife and saluted the military flag again. Then he kissed the corner of the military flag affectionately, and then turned to face the soldier.
"Gentlemen! Soldiers! Watanabe Masao's expression was grim: "This military flag was handed over to me by His Majesty before we set out for the expedition, and this military flag once galloped across the land of China!" This military flag was once invincible to the great enemy of Soviet Russia! This flag once swept through the Malays! Today, we're going to stick this side into the city of Lashio."
"Hooray! Banzai! ”
A deafening cheer rang out in the valley, and the sound was full of pride, full of pride. "The Holy War has reached a critical moment! Conquer Lashio and bring the Chinese army into our encirclement! Conquer Lashio! Build glory for the division! conquer Lashio and open up territory for the empire".
"Conquer Lashio! Destroy the people of China! ”
"Conquer Lashio! exterminate the people of China".
The soldiers' emotions were fully mobilized, they shouted frantically, their hands raised in the air, and the belo shouts filled the valley again.
"Now I declare that there is no advance or retreat in this battle! All officers and soldiers must carry forward the imperial samurai without fear of sacrifice! Heroic and tenacious qualities! Even if there is only one person left, it must be attacked! ”
Masao Watanabe gave a kill order, and he knew it. It is impossible for them to retreat back into the jungle, they have not been able to occupy Tangji, the troops have not been supplied in the calculations, and the whole army has run out of food yesterday, even him. The division commander's horses have already been killed, and it is impossible for them to return the same way.
Looking at the silence under the mountain, the soldiers in the position are lying bored in their nests, the humidity in Myanmar is very heavy, spending the night in the open air, waking up in the morning is covered in water, and being on high alert for several days in a row. But they didn't see the arrival of the Japanese army, and the soldiers' hearts were a little lax.
Liu Wangcai stomped his feet, felt a chill, a gurgling sound in his stomach, and knew that it was not good, he had been sick several times in a row these days, brother, this ghost weather in Myanmar is so watery in the morning and evening.
"Squad leader, I'm going to."
"Damn, it's just you." The squad leader scolded and looked impatient, looking at the time. There will be a change of guard in half an hour, and now in each position, there is an officer on duty every night, and their position is an outpost position, and the strength is only one squad, and it was his turn to be on duty last night, and the deputy squad leader will come to change it later.
"I'm going to pull the road, damn, the little devil is coming, try Lao Tzu's mines first." Liu Wangcai grimaced, dragged the gun and ran down.
The squad leader was anxious, and shouted at his back: "You *** pull away, that road, the brothers have to walk several times a day!" ”
But when he stretched out his head, Liu Wangcai did not run along the road, but ran into the woods. The squad leader couldn't help but scold: "***, if you don't fight for three days, you will go to the house to reveal the tiles, even Lao Tzu dares to tease, and you have to teach *** when you come back." ”
Liu Wangcai ran to the bottom of a rock and first used the gun in his hand to play with the grass under the rock. Seeing that there was no movement, he turned around and squatted. This trick was taught by the local overseas Chinese volunteer team, and there are many snakes in the jungles of Myanmar, especially in the grass.
Soon after Liu Wangcai squatted down, he heard a slight sound of footsteps in the mountains and forests, and at first thought that the brothers were playing a prank, but when he listened carefully, he found that it seemed to be a lot of people.
He quickly shrank his head, grabbed his gun, and then stopped his movements and pushed aside the grass again, and these devils were staring at it intently, not noticing this corner at all.
Liu Wangcai hesitated, and he looked at the mountain. looked at the large group of devils outside, gritted his teeth, and picked up his gun.
"Smack!"
The sound of gunfire pierced the silence of the early morning.
Liu Wangcai, a soldier with diarrhea, fired the first shot of those battles.
