The 147th Round: East Pass

Kawagishi looked at the map in his hand, and there was a very obvious circle drawn with a red pen on it, and the location in that circle was where they were standing now. 》>》[]

Kawagishi Bunzaburo had already realized the seriousness of the matter and shouted, "Hurry! Evacuate! As soon as the words came out, I heard a sharp sound in the distance, and then an explosion exploded directly on the beachhead, and the devils on the entire position were in a mess, and then countless shelling sounds were heard, and this place was already on fire. Kawagishi Bunzaburo was covered by Yoshito Takagi and left the position, but there were many devils who never left there and fused with the angry shells of the Chinese artillery.

Shen Shaofan stood on the hill in the east pass, looking at the beachhead in the distance, and couldn't hide the excited expression on his face, Zhang Wenshan said with a smile: "Then Kawagishi asked Saburo would never have thought that what he got was a position completely covered by our artillery fire. ”

Shen Shaofan smiled and said, "Order the artillery to hide immediately after the four bases are fired, and don't let the devils know their position." ”

Zhang Wenshantou smiled slightly: "Fortunately, it is the rainy season in these days, otherwise we will be choking on the devil's plane." ”

Shen Shaofan looked up at the gray sky and said, "Yes! That's what God helped us! ”

The sound of shelling sounded on the beachhead for more than two hours, and every piece of land on the position was scorching like coals, and even Takeda Totatsu Hatofu could feel a wave of heat seeping into his shoes when he stepped on it.

He looked at the corpses of Japanese soldiers in the trenches, sighed and said, "I have paid too much for this beachhead. ”

Kawagishi Bunzaburo said: "Your Excellency! We laid the first barrier into the Han River. Let's go down and drive the president straight in. ”

The headquarters of the National Youth Division stationed in the East Pass.

"Go straight in. Hehe! That Kawagishi Bunzaburo is too naΓ―ve. Shen Shaofan smiled slightly.

Shen Shaofan looked at the map and said, "Close the door and beat the dog." He threw the red and blue pen in his hand on the map and said, "Order the artillery to wait for my order to blow up the devil's pontoon bridge." "Understood." Blocking the sky and said with a smile: "This devil is unlucky to meet you." At this time, Sun Zhiyu hurriedly walked in and said, "Shaofan! The Governor's Department blamed us for not holding the beachhead. The telegram ordered us to retake the beachhead within 0 hours. He handed a piece of paper to Shaofan.

Shen Shaofan scolded at a glance: "It's just a group of ignorant children." The beachhead on the north shore is a palm-sized place, how many troops can be spread out to defend it, if the devil's artillery is erected, the entire beachhead is within the coverage of artillery fire. Sun Zhiyu said: "The Chief's Department means that once the devil crosses the entire Han River defense line on the north bank, he will find the possibility of being torn apart." Shen Shaofan smiled coldly and said: "I really don't understand what those pig heads of the chief's department think, the key to why the north bank of Jinkou has become a natural danger that is easy to defend and difficult to attack is the terrain of his pass." As long as we can hold this county, the Chuling Mountains, the devils will not pose a danger to the left and right sides of the Han River defense line. ”

Sun Zhiyu asked, "What about this electric order?" ”

Shen Shaofan pondered for a moment and said: "Call back, the Japanese army has already consolidated its position on the beachhead, and we can't recapture it." Our army will set up a position in the east pass to become the first wall of the county Chuling. ”

When Sun Zhiyu heard this, he said: "This is disobedience!" There are very few big accusations from above! ”

Shen Shaofan smiled slightly: "Our country's youth division is not a troop that uses the lives of brothers as stepping stones. Even if the beachhead is recaptured, as long as the weather is good, all positions will be exposed to the devil's aircraft and artillery. Those in the commander's department don't take the soldiers' lives seriously, and I, Shen Shaofan, can't do it. ”

He Yingqin in the chief's department scolded excitedly when he saw Shaofan's reply: "Presumptuous! Licentious! This national youth division is too presumptuous. Dare to disobey the orders of the Chief's Department. ”

Zhang Lingfu, who was on the side, looked at the telegram and then looked at the sand table and said, "Sir! This Shen Shaofan is really a generation of young and promising generals. is worthy of being the son of Shen Yingchang. ”

"What do you mean?" He Yingqin asked.

Zhang Lingfu said: "If his troops hold the beachhead, they must be covered by the devil's aircraft and artillery, and if this is the case, no matter how many national youth divisions can't resist." Zhang Lingfu said again: "Sir, please take a look." Even though the devils have taken the beachhead on the north bank of Jinkou, they are still in the area covered by our army's effective artillery fire, and the east pass is the only place to enter the county Chuling. Here is a relatively important military pass from ancient times to the present, on both sides are lofty mountains and mountains, only the east pass has a road into the county Chuling, if the devil can not attack the county Chuling, it is equivalent to being trapped on this palm-sized beachhead. And this beachhead is not big, and it can't set up artillery and can't get on over-load-bearing baggage trucks, that is, the beachhead grabbed by devils is not suitable for mechanized troops to deploy. If this is the case, the devil's way to capture the county Chuling can only be attacked by infantry, and the east pass is a position to wait for work. ”

He Yingqin looked at the head of the sand table and acquiesced, but the other staff officer on the side smiled coldly and said: "From ancient times to the present, the anti-landing war is either annihilated in the water or annihilated on the beachhead, and it is not listened to when it is put on the shore to start a war." "That person is Zhang Weirong.

Zhang Lingfu said: "The beachhead on the north bank of Jinkou is relatively narrow, if our army defends here, it will become the target of the devil's attack, so that we will lose the conditions for the geographical advantage of the county and Chuling." Compared with other river sections, the Jinkou section of the Han River is narrower, the water flow is gentle, and it is easy to cross the river, fortunately this time is the rainy season, otherwise I think the devil has been crossing the river here for a long time. Zhang Weirong also knew that he was wrong when he heard it, but not only did he not admit his mistake, but he was annoyed and angry: "Then Shen Shaofan can't disobey orders." ”

At this time, a sentence outside the door made all of them awe-inspired, and Chiang Kai-shek walked in and said: "The battlefield is changing rapidly, and excellent generals should be unchanged and changeable. ”

He Yingqin hurriedly walked over and said, "Chairman! What are you doing here? ”

"The Han River defense line is related to the safety of Sichuan; It's about the safety of Chongqing, how can I not come and take a look. Chiang Kai-shek sat down and said: "I have also seen the battle situation of the National Youth Division, such a strong wind, such a heavy rain, the Japanese can still borrow a boat as a pontoon bridge to cross the river, it is not impossible to cross the Han River." ”

Chiang Kai-shek asked, "Lingfu! What do you think of Shen Shaofan's plan? ”

Zhang Lingfu said: "Principal! The Japanese army was several times superior to ours. Shaofan's decision is the best policy. ”

Chiang Kai-shek said: "Since it is the best policy, we must support it." He stood up and said, "Okay! I'm not going to stay longer. He looked at everyone present and said, "The Kawanaka portal will be handed over to you." ”

In the woods near the East Pass, in the Devil's Command, an officer walked up to Wen Saburo and said, "Report! Indistinct! of telegrams. ”

Kawagishi Bunzaburo looked excited and said, "Okay! Shen Shaofan: You are dead this time. ”

Kawagishi Fumizaburo said: "Electric order! Indistinct! Guide our aircraft. ”

Yoshito Takagi looked a little depressed and asked, "Your Excellency! What's going on? ”

Kawagishi Fumizaburo said, "The weather will improve from tomorrow." Our plane can make Shen Shaofan die without a place to be buried. He smiled mysteriously and said, "Gather troops and prepare to attack the East Pass." "Yes!" Yoshito Takagi gave a military salute and turned to leave.

Kawagishi Bunzaburo thought about it and shook the phone and said, "Is it the Air Force Command?" I wonder if you can take off tomorrow? Good! Then look at the signal tomorrow. ”

The drizzle had stopped, and Shen Shaofan looked at the sky and said, "It seems that the devil's plane will be dispatched tomorrow." ”

Bai Long said on the side: "I'll order Fang Zhiyong to lead the special combat team to the south bank to join Kong Liang's reconnaissance team, and I will have a chance to blow up the devil's airport." ”

Shen Shaofan thought about it and smiled: "No! Kawagishi Bunzaburo is not a fool, he will not be fooled twice. Order Kong Liang's team to come back too! Now it's up to us to see how strong we are. ”

The east pass is the first barrier in the county Chu Ridge, a naturally formed pass, both sides are full of mountains, only one road can enter the county Chu Ridge, and there are two highlands in the middle, one is the Tiger Riding Slope and the other is the Dragon Stone, just in front of the East Pass, it has become a natural urn city, there are two sections of mountain beams behind, and the middle is a narrow road, in general, the National Youth Division is to put a group of Huang Junjie's troops on the two highlands of the Tiger Breaking and the Dragon Stone, temporarily becoming 10; 10 highlands, and on the mountain beams behind, Zhao Meng's regiment was deployed on two mountain beams, tentatively called 01; 0 Highlands. The East Pass is a place where soldiers must fight from ancient times to the present, when Zhuge Liang ordered Ma Chaotun to have 50,000 soldiers here, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Xianzhong, the king of Chuang, fought with the Qing army here, and the Qing army could not attack the East Pass for a long time, so he had to use the red cannon to conquer it. It is conceivable that the importance of this eastern pass and the position advantage of being easy to defend and difficult to attack can be imagined.

10 On the high ground, Huang Junjie was urging the soldiers to dig trenches, Shen Shaofan came to their position and looked around and said: "We must do a good job of the devil's artillery and air raids, as soon as the weather is good, our artillery will not be like a few days ago." ”

Huang Junjie smiled: "You can rest assured. ”

Shen Shaofan said again: "I asked Li Hairong to plant a large number of mines on the two high grounds, so as soon as I heard the sound of mines, the devil came." Shaofan patted Huang Junjie's shoulder and said, "You must give me life." A lump can't live without you. ”

Huang Junjie smiled: "You can rest assured. ”

Zhang Wenshan said on the side: "10 and 10 are the urn cities in the eastern pass, and they will be handed over to you because your regiment has strong combat effectiveness and must be defended." ”

Huang Junjie smiled and said, "Don't worry." ”

At this time, Blocking the sky ran away, and said angrily: "Hey! I'm Shaofan, you're too boring! What does it mean to put me and the teaching team in Guicheng Mountain? Anyway, there's a way! ”

Shen Shaofan smiled: "Your son is warlike. Guicheng Mountain is the guarantee of our eastern pass, and I have ordered the artillery of the eastern pass to transfer their positions to Guicheng Mountain, and once the artillery fire is used, Guicheng Mountain may be a major target of attack by the devils, so I want you to sit there. ”

Blocking Tianfang shook his head and said, "That's not good." If you can't get into the East Pass, it's impossible for the devil to enter Guicheng Mountain, so I'll stay in the East Pass if you find someone else. ”

Shen Shaofan was angry and funny when he was blocked by Tianfang, and asked the guards to take out the map and show it to Tianfang: "You are still the deputy division commander, and you don't even know the terrain of Guicheng Mountain. Come and see ......"
