Chapter 14 When the saber is unsheathed

The plane was far away and gradually disappeared in the clouds, but Shaofan still looked into the distance and fell into a lot of memories: "No! I absolutely disagree! Tong Linge waved his hand.

Shaofan said: "Deputy Commander Tong, this is our only chance. The Japanese army has gathered a large number of tanks and baggage, and has assembled nearly 600 planes at the three airfields in Dachang and Xianghe, and in the Gu'an area, once the war starts, how many waves of attacks can we withstand? Are you reluctant to give up those transport planes? ”

Tong Linge said: "Brother Shaofan, you underestimate me too much, Tong someone, the Anti-Japanese War is a big plan, how can I give up a few planes." It's just that the soldiers of your department have such combat experience? Also, if the war drags on for several months, how can those hundreds of people in your department survive under the jurisdiction of the Japanese army? Once the squad has completed its mission, how can it evacuate the depth of the enemy area? It's all to consider. ”

Shaofan said: "I am dissatisfied with Deputy Commander Tong, and the special service company and reconnaissance company of our National Youth League began strict and brutal special military training in the early days of its formation, and there are even German special military instructors who have secretly trained for nearly three months, and the special operations behind enemy lines have been tested in Xi'an. Besides, we will make a detailed plan before dispatching Deputy Commander Tong, you can rest assured. Besides, our special service company was established to fight behind enemy lines, and once the war started, the rear supply of paralyzed Japanese troops was our only hope to reduce casualties. ”

Tong Linge pondered, to know that the air power of the squadron at that time was extremely thin, the six transport planes on the Beiping airport accounted for half of the number of Chinese transport planes at that time, and it was a risk to ask Tong Linge to send half of China's transport planes to the sky over Langfang, which was already regarded as an enemy-occupied area without any fighter escort, but he still agreed: "Okay! ”

"Shaofan!" Tianfang patted Shaofan, who was deep in thought, pulled him back from his memories and said, "Let's go to the regiment headquarters!" ”

Shaofan nodded.

It was over Hebei on July 5, 1937, the plane was flying smoothly through the clouds before the storm, and the soldiers in the cabin were busy with their own things, some were taking a nap with their eyes closed, some were writing letters for their families, and some were smoking cigarettes in a dull manner.

Bai Xiaolong looked at the time, then walked into the cockpit, picked up the wireless and said: "Brothers on the plane, this time we are going to the rear of the Japanese garrison to carry out a series of tasks codenamed "Bayonet". The detachments are requested to carry out the tasks as written. Brothers, we have endured the humiliation and oppression of the Japanese for many years, and from today we will become a page in history because we fired the first shot against Japan. We are ......"

"National, Youth, Regimental," the soldiers in the six planes replied in unison.

"Go ahead! Fearless Warriors! Bai Xiaolong shouted.

At the same time, the captains of the six detachments on the planes opened the document bags they had received before boarding, looked at them with quick eyes, and heard: "One--team--ready, ready to parachute!" ”

"Two--team-ready!"

"Three--team--ready!"

Bai Xiaolong saw by the cabin window that the soldiers on the plane beside him had already begun to parachute, and the umbrella flowers blooming in the air were not to mention how beautiful they were. He secretly said in his heart: "China will definitely win because of such a group of outstanding young men." ”

Bai Xiaolong recalled a conversation he had with Shaofan before leaving, and knew that this mission was an extremely risky mission: "Little Dragon! We are going to form a task force and divide it into six detachments to be airdropped to the west of Dachang; the north of Dachang; Xianghe; Liu Quan; Hancun; The south minaret was the airfield of the Japanese army at the first moment of the start of the war; Oil depot; Magazine; The granaries were completely destroyed, and all the rear supplies of the Japanese army were paralyzed. We want the Japanese planes to fly out of the sky, the Japanese tanks to be without gasoline, and the Japanese army to be without ammunition and food. Shaofan Dao Xiaolong smiled: "This is a good way!" ”

Shaofan said heavily: "But this task is very dangerous, because the 29th Army only has six transport planes and can only transport 180 people, so each detachment can only have 30 people." Also, we don't know for sure when the Japanese will attack us, and you'll have to lurk behind enemy lines for an unknown amount of time. ”

"That's fine." Xiaolongdao Shaofan opened the map and said, "Okay! You are in charge of the Japanese airfield in Nanjianta, which is located in the salient of Langfang, and if the battle starts, it will become the first airfield to bomb Beiping, and whether or not the Nanjian airfield can be blown up is the key to the casualties on the battlefield of our army. ”

Xiaolong said: "The question is how we will retreat and join you once the mission is completed. ”

Shaofan smiled and said: "After you complete the task, all of you will withdraw to Tianjin to Dagang District, where there will be a ship from Nanjing to pick you up and return to Nanjing." ”

"What?" Xiaolong said in surprise: "Once the war starts, the war in Pingjin will be tense, and you want us to go back to Nanjing, but you are here to fight with Little Japan, which I can't do." ”

Shaofan said: "As a soldier, you will bear different dangers, it is a danger for you to go deep into Langfang, and it is also a danger for us to stay here and fight with Little Japan." Different positions have different tasks, and completing the task in Langfang is equivalent to completing the task on the entire battlefield. ”

"Military people take on different dangers!" The little dragon muttered to himself in the memory.

At this moment one of the soldiers shouted: "Company - Commander - here we are!" ”

Bai Xiaolong nodded in surprise and shouted, "Six--team-, prepare to parachute." As soon as Xiaolong's words fell, he saw that the soldiers in the entire cabin stood up, they were fully armed, their faces were painted with black ink paint, and the snipers were also covered with camouflage nets to collect weeds and leaves, and they were tied and woven on the nets to achieve the effect of camouflage. In this mission, they were not only equipped with conventional special equipment, such as a compass; Sleeping bag; In addition to compressing rations, it was also equipped with a large number of zha medicines, and each detachment was also equipped with a number of good demolitionists in the engineer company.

Xiaolong shouted again, "Check the equipment!" Check the umbrella bag! As he spoke, he patted his equipment and umbrella bag.

The soldiers helped each other to check their equipment and umbrella bags, and then they heard: "No. 1 is over!" Finished on the 2nd! The 3rd is over! ......" voices of answers came out one after another.

"Good!" The little dragon opened the hatch, and the bitter wind immediately poured in, and thunder and lightning had begun to flash in the clouds in the distance.

Xiaolong turned around and pried his thumb at the warriors and said, "We are ......"

"The country-the youth-the league."

"Forward-forward-, fearless warrior!" Bai Xiaolong shouted. At the same time, seeing the warriors jumping into the sky one after another, he waited until the last person of the little dragon, he shouted, and jumped into the long sky of the wind.

Before the storm came, the weather in Langfang was extremely hot, and a parachute task force team descended towards the bright light on the ground, which was the target point made for them by the soldiers of the reconnaissance company that had infiltrated Langfang of the National Youth League. The reconnaissance soldiers brought out by Duan Louyun and Wang Xin were scattered in Dachang; Xianghe; Hancun; Liu Quan; Almost at the same time, they received an order to pick up the task force fighters who were about to parachute.

Bai Xiaolong was jolted as he was about to approach the ground, and then smoothly landed on his feet and rolled on the ground that had been wet by the raindrops, then hurriedly stood up and put away the umbrella vigorously. On weekdays, the spy company and the reconnaissance company have all done parachuting training, that is, they have never been used in real planes, and they have never been used in actual combat, but fortunately, the soldiers have also mastered the skills of parachuting, and no one was injured or killed when landing, at least nothing happened to the team led by Bai Xiaolong.

At this time, a soldier from the reconnaissance company was about to run over and said, "White Company Commander! I am the corporal of the reconnaissance company, my name is Tang Fei, I am ordered to pick you up, and from now on, I will obey your command. ”

"Good! Take us to a safe place first. Xiaolong Dao sorted out his equipment, looked around, and said softly: "Hurry up!" Buried all the parachutes. They then landed safely in the dense woods.

At this time, the thunder on the horizon was louder, and after a while, the wind was fierce, and after a while, the raindrops began to grow heavier, and the drops began to hit the leaves, as if at the same time, the sound of the rain began to intensify, and a task force put on raincoats, and advanced rapidly through the woods like ghosts in the middle of the night.

Shaofan, the headquarters of the National Youth League, was anxiously waiting for the first telegraph of the six task forces, and the ashtray on the long desk was already full of cigarette butts.

"Tuanza! All six bayonets have been unsheathed! An interpreter stood up.

When Shaofan heard this, he let go of his mouth for a long time, took out a cigarette from the cigarette shell, put it in his mouth, lit it, stood up and said, "I'll go to sleep for a while, and then call me when there is a situation." ”

"Yes!"

However, in the past few days, the frequency of the Japanese army's exercises in the Wanping area has increased, and the National Youth League has long been accustomed to shooting and firing guns all day long, if it weren't for Song Zheyuan's repeated requests to change Shaofan's temper, little Japan would have been driven out of Fengtai a long time ago. I don't know why, what day it is, little Japan fought a full day of exercises outside Wanping City, and it stopped a little at night, but after a while, the gunfire in Wanping City was a big deal.

Shaofan suddenly got up from the bed and scolded: "The little Japan of the dog day, I * his ancestors are eighteen generations, and I don't let Lao Tzu sleep peacefully." As he spoke, he got up and scolded, picked up a Czech ZB26 and came outside, shooting indiscriminately into the sky in the direction of Wanping City.

Qian Dabao rushed all the way over, and with a very complicated expression on his face, he panted and said, "Tuan...... Head! Fight! Beat...... Fight! ”

"What's with what? Be clear. Shaofan said impatiently.

The expression on Qian Dabao's face was half surprised and half excited: "Little Japan and the 29th Army have fought. ”

"The 29th Army often fights with little Japan, what's all the fuss." Shao Fan Dao.

Qian Dabao waved his hand, and at this time, there was only excitement on his face: "No! Little Japan made trouble outside Wanping City, saying that a soldier was missing in the city and wanted to enter the city to search, but was turned away by the 29th Army, and I heard that now the people of Wanping City have gone to the city wall to strengthen the fortifications. ”

"What?" Shaofan was shocked: "It's true." ”

"It's true!" Qian Dabao said.

Shaofan thought about it and hurriedly shouted: "Quickly notify all positions to enter emergency combat readiness, and immediately pick up Yongding for me." Shaofan said to himself while walking with his military uniform: "What is going to come is always coming!" Qian Dabao and several guards followed Shaofan to the regimental headquarters together.

Shaofan walked to the headquarters and paused for a moment and asked Dabao, "What time is it today?" ”

"The head of the regiment is almost the eighth on the seventh." Dabao replied without confusion.

Shaofan said to himself: "July 7th! Shaofan looked around the headquarters and shouted: "Everyone, remember that today's July 7th, July 7th, 1937, this is a moment in history. Saying that, he took the phone and said, "Zhiyu, how are you there?" ”

"Everything works!"

Shaofan breathed a sigh of relief and hung up the phone, he didn't explain anything to Zhiyu, because he believed in Zhiyu, and he knew that Sun Zhiyu's military talent was far superior to his own. Then Shaofan said to the two telegraphers: "Order the bayonet to act." ”

"Yes!"

The dim candle flame danced in a corner of the cave, and the faint moonlight poured in from outside the cave, bringing a touch of silence to this dreary summer night, and the four warriors in camouflage nets pulled the camouflage of the night into the cave, and the little dragon returned with three members of the team who had just returned from scouting the movements of the South Spire Airport.

When the correspondent saw that Bai Xiaolong was back, he walked over and said, "Company commander! On the night of the 7th, the Japanese Chinese garrison fired at the defenders of the 29th Army in Wanping, and the defenders resolutely responded with a resolute response. The regiment commander gave the order to action to all detachments. ”

Bai Xiaolong took the telegram and reported: "Got it! ”

Tang Fei said: "It seems that the war has started!" What did the head of the regiment say? ”

Xiaolong said: "I know the regiment commander very well, he will not interfere much in the actions behind the enemy, so as not to affect the judgment of the commander on the spot. Since the regimental headquarters gave the order to operate, we carried out the plan in advance. ”

"Company commander! The Xianghe side has started, and now it has become a mess inside. The correspondent said.

Xiaolong smiled: "Then Chu Huaiyue is really fast!" ”

Tang Fei couldn't help but say, "Let's act too!" I immediately led someone to blow up the little devil's aerial bomb depot. ”

"No hurry!" Xiaolong said: "Let's wait for two more days!" ”

"Wait two more days!" Tang Fei exclaimed in surprise: "Wait for two more days, the little devil will be on guard." ”

Bai Xiaolong smiled mysteriously and didn't answer, but said, "Don't worry! With that, the little dragon leaned against the corner of the cave and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

Tang Fei was confused, came to the side, pushed a soldier of the special service company, and said, "Hey! Why is this happening to your company commander? ”

The warrior laughed and said, "You are in a hurry! Sensei, seeing that our company commanders are like this on weekdays, it's a god at a critical time. When the time comes, you can follow our company commander! After the soldier finished speaking, the general's hat was pressed down and he went back to sleep.

Speaking of Bai Xiaolong, he and Shen Shaofan; SUN Zhiyu; ZHAO Meng; Zheng Xiaohu also said that he was the Whampoa Five Tigers, and it stands to reason that Bai Xiaolong's military skills are far from being a deputy chief of staff at the regiment headquarters, but how could he be a major and company commander in the spy reinforcement company? This starts with the respective strengths of the five tigers of Whampoa.
