Chapter 7: The Road to Famous Generals (II)
"Report!" A platoon commander rushed into Xie Jinyuan's room without even knocking on the door, he shook off the sweat on his forehead fiercely, and hissed: "Regiment commander, there are a large number of troops, which are rapidly approaching us from the Jiaozhou Park in the south. ”
"There are about three hundred British soldiers among them, and judging by their roundabout movements, the task they received should be to surround the entire barracks!"
"There are about 400 Italian soldiers, and they have begun to set up checkpoints on Jiaozhou Road to impose martial law!"
"About 400 White Russian soldiers have gathered in front of the barracks, and judging by their appearance, they may attack the barracks at any time!"
…… It was the platoon commander who reported again and again that the lone battalion was surrounded by 1,100 fully armed professional soldiers and cut off from the outside world. In fact, there was no need for the platoon commander to report again, standing up and through the window, Xie Jinyuan could clearly see that those White Russian soldiers who were carrying rifles with bayonets on their backs and thick wooden sticks in their hands stood there tall and strong like an iron tower.
Just in terms of size, the soldiers of the lone military battalion, whose average height was less than 170 centimeters, were really dwarfed by a lot.
"Report!"
It was still the battalion commander, he once again ran into Xie Jinyuan's room without knocking on the door, and he quickly reported: "The White Russian captain has given us an ultimatum, ordering us to immediately remove the national flag within ten minutes, otherwise they will start an operation!" ”
Xie Jinyuan nodded slightly, this commander who has been in a hundred battles and is wise and brave understands that he has gathered more than a thousand troops to surround the lone army battalion, and even stuck various strategic points on the Jiaozhou Highway, the British are definitely not pretentious gestures in doing this, if he refuses the ultimatum of the White Russian captain again, the British will really suppress this place by force!
Xie Jinyuan looked back at Lei Zhen and said, "Lei Zhen, if you are me, what should you do?" ”
No matter how much training you have received, how much theory you know, and how many classic war cases you know, only real combat is the touchstone for honing a professional soldier, especially a commander!
"Fight!"
In the face of Xie Jinyuan's inquiry, Lei Zhen stretched out his hand and pointed to all corners of the sand table, and said without raising his head: "The lookout is the commanding height of the entire military camp, although we don't have guns and ammunition in our hands, but occupying this place, we can use stones to snipe the enemy's attack and distract the enemy's attention, so we should send a company to the lookout for defense." ”
"The barracks gate is a strategic point that we must defend, and only in front of the barracks gate can we reduce the disadvantage caused by the lack of numbers to us, so we should send the third company with the best hand-to-hand combat training performance to the barracks gate to be responsible for resisting the attack of the White Russian army head-on!"
"The second company, which has a small number of people, should find weapons such as sticks and beer bottles in the shortest possible time, and then assemble on the big field to provide support to the third company at any time; And the task of the fourth company is to surround the national flag no matter what happens, and never let the enemy steal our national flag! ”
Xie Jinyuan listened to Lei Zhen's words, and he suddenly asked, "Do you think we can hold it?" ”
Lei Zhen replied, "Can't hold it!" ”
Xie Jinyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Can't hold on, you still can't keep it?" ”
"Master, you once told me that in this world, there is absolutely no respect in exchange for compromise, let alone understanding and recognition won by groveling!"
Lei Zhen looked up at Xie Jinyuan, and said in a deep voice: "The Ministry of Industry Bureau treats me as a beast, but treats us as timid rabbits, I just want to tell them that they really force us to be anxious, even rabbits can eat meat!" Only in this way, when the Ministry of Industry wants to do something in the future, can you learn to think twice! ”
Xie Jinyuan nodded, and said to the platoon commander who had been waiting for his order: "If you hear Lei Zhen's plan clearly, immediately convey it to Battalion Commander Yang Ruifu and tell him to swear to protect the national flag!" ”
Seeing the platoon commander hurriedly walk out of the room, Lei Zhen stretched out his hand and gently tapped the tabletop, his dark and dark eyes suddenly rose with a fierce flame that could be divided into gold and gravel.
"The intelligence agencies are pressing us step by step, and passive defense will only make them more and more rampant. We can't hold the flag, and the harder we fight with the British, the happier I will be when I hide behind. I said that I made the first year of junior high school, and now it's our turn to do fifteen! ”
"In order to prevent leakage of news, but also to prevent our riots from rushing out of the barracks, now four hundred Italian morale is stationed at various strategic points on the Jiaozhou Road, and ordinary people, especially Chinese, are simply impossible to enter and exit at will in this military martial law zone, so any Asian face we can see is my own agent, or the Han annihilation they bought!" And the only reason why they appeared near the barracks was that they were assigned by the intelligence agencies to participate in the operation against the lone barracks! ”
Lei Zhen's gaze fell directly on Ma Lan, who was standing in the corner of the room, but had been silent, and said in a deep voice: "With the power in our hands, we can't move their intelligence agency headquarters, but in order to facilitate activities, for the convenience of contact, and in order to maintain the high-speed and effective circulation of intelligence, they should also set up an intelligence station near the lonely military camp!" ”
Turning out a translucent molding bottle from the drawer, Lei Zhen put this plastic bottle into Ma Lan's hand with great importance, "This is the loot you seized from the spy who infiltrated the barracks last time, none of us know what the use of this thing is, let alone how effective it is, let's just come to the one with the way of others, return the body, ask Ma Lan to think of a way, throw it into the water tank in the kitchen of my intelligence station!" If I see that we train too hard every day and the food is too poor, and want to send some big tonic for us to make up, we will send them back to make up for it; If I want to use poison to let us finish together, we will let them finish together; If they want to torture us and make us die a miserable death, I don't mind sleeping at night at night listening to the screams of some people in the neighborhood and laughing until dawn! ”
Xie Jinyuan and Ma Lan were shocked at the same time, frankly speaking, although the plan formulated by Lei Zhen was accurate and ruthless, but compared with the surprise attack "Izumo" and "Iron Fist" plan formulated by Xie Jinyuan himself, it can only be regarded as an improvisation tactic, but just two months ago, Lei Zhen was deceived by a spy sent by the Iwai intelligence agency, and almost caused a catastrophe, but now, Lei Zhen, who has invested a lot of energy in studying the intelligence system, in such a short period of time, It is already possible to formulate a plan that is so ruthless with his backhand, turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands into rain, and fiercely countering the opponent's army.
Looking at Lei Zhen, who had already begun to deduce on the sand table and calculate how to create chaos so that Ma Lan could take the opportunity to successfully "escape from prison", Xie Jinyuan and Ma Lan's eyes saw a star that might rise in the near future!
Ten minutes later, with the order of the White Russian captain, four hundred White Russian soldiers with wooden sticks who looked tall and tall rushed towards the Chinese [***] people guarding the front of the barracks.
These White Russians have been living in China for a long time, they are used to seeing cowardly Chinese officials, they are used to being oppressed, silent Chinese as if they were dead, they think they have enough of China, enough Chinese, and of course enough to know the Chinese [***] people.
In their eyes, the Chinese [***] people are a group of cowards who run faster than rabbits as soon as the guns go off, and a group of cannon fodder who have no training at all, are temporarily recruited by the army, put on a military uniform, and maybe can't even get a rifle, and are going to go to the battlefield to die! Even if these cannon fodder don't die, as soon as the war is over and the guns are thrown away, they are still a group of peasants, and it is simply an insult to put such a sacred word as a soldier on this group of peasants who may not even dare to kill pigs!
As for the "eight hundred warriors" who defend the four-line warehouse, it is even more a fairy tale that the Chinese sell and boast about. If it weren't for the fact that the Sixing warehouse was too close to the British Concession, and he didn't dare to use heavy weapons, their small army of only three or four hundred people would have been bombed by his bombers and there were no bones left! A group of people hid behind the thick-walled four-row warehouse, put cold guns, threw grenades, and finally fled into the British Concession under the cover of the British [***] team.
With self-righteous pride, these White Russian soldiers, who had an absolute advantage in height and physical strength, waved the wooden sticks in their hands and smashed them on the heads and faces of the [***] people who stood in front of them. For a moment, in front of the gate of the lonely barracks, there was a dull sound characteristic of a blunt blow, and a suppressed moan. But soon, these White Russian soldiers felt a heavy pressure. Because of these [***] people in front of them, even if they were beaten to the flesh, even if they were beaten to blood, none of them retreated.
Don't forget, they are all Xie Jinyuan's subordinates, and each of them is a hero who is called "Eight Hundred Warriors" by 40,000 compatriots! They are on the top floor of the Sixing warehouse, in order to protect the national flag, despite the repeated strafing of fighter jets, they did not escape, they can use their bodies to forcibly break the flagpole, and re-erect a backbone that will never fall, in the face of a burst of sticks, how could they choose to escape?!
At this time, the officers and men of the first company finally succeeded in occupying the lookouts around the barracks. As several Chinese [***] people shouted wildly, a crystal water curtain was suddenly drawn in the sky, and this water curtain rolled in the air, with a curling heat, swaying towards the White Russian soldiers who were attacking the barracks.
A wolf-crying wolf howl sounded among the White Russian soldiers, a White Russian soldier threw away the wooden stick in his hand, jumped and roared and screamed in pain, he took off the rifle on his back with a grin, just pulled up the bolt, and before he could aim, the squad leader slapped him in the face, "What are you doing, no order, absolutely no shooting!" ”
The White Russian soldier raised his reddened arm and hissed: "Captain, look, look! Those damn Chinese monkeys, they splashed us with boiling water! ”
"You're a fucking stupid! Don't you look at these guys, they don't even have a fruit knife, they just want to show their posture, as long as you shoot, this is no longer a repressive operation, but a premeditated murder or massacre! Don't forget that we are still standing on the territory of the Chinese, once it causes public anger, do you think those British will really bear the protests of the Chinese for us mercenaries, and bear the charge of massacring their combat heroes?! ”
can let the White Russian soldiers have weapons in their hands, and they are still tied up like this, which really reproduces a scene in the defensive battle of the Four Elements Warehouse! And the person who deliberately warned the officers and soldiers of the lone army battalion not to carry any iron weapons was, of course, Xie Jinyuan!
The burned White Russian soldier, holding up the rifle that had already pulled the bolt in his hand, but no longer dared to pull the trigger, pointed to the [***] man guarding the lookout, jumped and cried: "But we just let them splash ...... with boiling water."
Before he could finish speaking, a ...... flew out of the air Small teapot!
As the saying goes, although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs, and this little teapot, although it looks inconspicuous, is an absolutely powerful weapon. You must know that condescendingly, pouring boiling water, although it covers a wide area, but the lethality is absolutely limited, after a period of air flight, it falls on the body of the White Russian soldier, and the original boiling water can be maintained at most seventy or eighty degrees. But this little teapot is different, pour boiling water into it, and then throw it down, this is simply a reduced version of the power of a city wall defense battle nirvana oil tank!
This small teapot that Commander Xie Jinyuan usually likes to use, turning his happy little heels in the air, swaying boiling water in the mouth that is still above 95 degrees Celsius, and pounced into the crowd of White Russian soldiers with the moving posture of the milk swallow returning to the nest. A scream suddenly sounded among the White Russian soldiers, and in the fierce swing of the arms of the White Russian soldier who had been fatally attacked, the small teapot, which didn't even know where the lid flung to, bounced up lightly again, and played a trick in the air with a brilliant 720-degree spin. While spinning in the air, it poured out the boiling water that had just been poured into its body without hesitation, spilling a ghost cry and waving a wolf howl.
"Damn, even if we can't shoot, that's too much, right?!"
The eyes of all the White Russian soldiers widened, and they raised their heads and stared blankly at the top of their heads. Those [***] people actually threw away the firecrackers they bought to be set off after the commemoration of the flag-raising ceremony. You know, it's a big red firecracker that lights up and blows up, and it is said that there are fewer squibs than the big red firecrackers in Liuyang! And look at that coarse big plate, how fucking it's a super lianhuan with a thousand heads!
In the sound of crackling firecrackers, beer bottles, two-pot bottles, smoking firewood that had just been pulled out of the stove, broken shoes and smelly socks, saliva, and half of the bricks that were necessary for home travel to kill people and set fires were smashed down by people on their heads and faces.
Suddenly there was another golden powder rain in the sky, and in the face of this absolutely unexpected and seemingly lethal attack, all the White Russian soldiers who were drenched in this gold powder were stunned. How can the things spilled out by the Chinese people in order to stop them from attacking are good things that are beneficial to human health, can promote world stability and prosperity, and can effectively prevent soil erosion and increase the desert area?!
"Are they spilling ...... Highly toxic?! ”
No sooner had this terrible thought than the White Russian soldiers could scream hysterically, when they suddenly heard an angry roar from above their heads: "Ergazi, what the fuck are you doing?!" ”
The secretary of the cooking squad was really going crazy, he pointed to a soldier who was constantly throwing golden powder under the "city wall", and screamed and scolded: "That's the rations of our whole battalion brothers, what are you carrying it up for, if you want the girl to play the trick of scattering flowers, you just hurry up and kill yourself, and see if you can be reincarnated as a seven fairies!" You spilled so much cornmeal for our cooking, from today onwards, you can only eat one wowotou a day, no, you can only eat half a day for a year in a row! Only in this way can a young master like you know that the important surname of grain !! ”
Hearing that he could only eat half of his nest head every day for a year, Ergazi was also anxious, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the secretary and shouted: "What about yourself, what you poured down is not the soy sauce and Shanxi old vinegar used for cooking?!" If you have the ability, don't eat dishes with soy sauce and Shanxi old vinegar in your life! ”
Before Ergazi's words fell, another one flew out of the air and was called "Jiaocai" in Yanjing, but in fact, the scientific name is called the defensive weapon of Chinese cabbage. Looking at the seventeen or eighteen pounds of cabbage, like an airdropped bombshell, it fell straight down, Er Gazi and the secretary shouted in unison: "Damn, who threw our cabbage out?!" ”
The [***] people who stopped in front of the barracks suddenly let out a snort and slowly fell down. A White Russian soldier with bloodshot eyes and a rifle with blood on its bayonet hissed out: "I let you splash it with boiling water, I let you smash it, we can't shoot, but no one rules that we can't use bayonets, right?" I don't believe that a bayonet can't stab you anymore! ”
Looking at the brother who fell in a pool of blood, everyone's eyes were red, and in the shouts and roars, a battle with absolutely asymmetrical strength, no gunshots, and only cold weapons was used to fight in this lonely military camp.
The Chinese [***] people fought back with the wooden sticks they had snatched, they reversed and smashed the beer bottles with sharp edges, and fought with the White Russian soldiers with bayonets, and they could not beat a single White Russian soldier alone, so several people rushed over together, and beat the White Russian soldiers who were pressed under their bodies hard, allowing more White Russian soldiers to punch and kick around them.
The national flag is still fluttering in the wind, the red and brilliant, the solemn red cloth, and the blue sky and white are silently witnessing this tragic battle for dignity.
Under the leadership of the company commander, platoon commander and squad leader, the Chinese [***] people formed one combat unit after another, and they resisted desperately, but in the face of the White Russian soldiers, who had an absolute advantage in numbers, weapons and physical strength, they fell to the ground one by one. The medic ran around the field, treating everyone as desperately as he could. But when he bandaged a man, he often fell two or three at the same time, and when the White Russian soldiers, who were already alive with beast names, were red-eyed, and more and more people began to use the bayonets on their rifles, more and more soldiers were wounded. Looking at the wounded man lying in his arms, with at least six or seven stabs all over his body, looking at the blood gushing out of this young soldier's body, feeling the rapid loss of vitality from his body, the military medical officer with only a few rolls of hemostatic bandages and a bottle of disinfectant alcohol in his hand, while trying to help the wounded stop the bleeding, his whole body trembled slightly.
These soldiers who were fighting in a group on the barracks of the barracks, whether they were Chinese [***] people or White Russian soldiers, did not know that at this time, a delicate and heroic figure had quietly crossed the barbed wire fence around the barbed wire, successfully avoided the surveillance of the Italian soldiers around them, and disappeared behind a huge rock.
Ma Lan didn't look back, she knew that even if she went to help her comrades in the lonely army camp now, with her own strength, she couldn't change the situation of this doomed battle. The only thing she can do now is to make the real culprit behind this incident pay the price she deserves! Only in this way will the blood of those brothers who fell in a pool of blood in order to defend the national flag not be shed in vain!
No one could have imagined that such a battle of extraordinary strength would last for a whole hour. In the end, even the company in charge of defending the lookout joined the battle on the field after throwing all the weapons that could be used in their hands. In this hour-long battle, in addition to the head of the lone army battalion Xie Jinyuan and Lei Zhen, all the members participated in the battle, until the last moment of the battle, at least more than 100 people were injured, and according to the inventory of the military medical officer, at least forty-one were seriously injured.
Xie Jinyuan and Lei Zhen were still sitting in the places where they were sitting, they didn't watch the battle outside the house, maybe even they didn't know, whether they didn't want to see the tragedy after the bloody battle, or they already knew the final outcome, there was no need to use their eyes to reconfirm their judgment.
"Lei Zhen, do you know why I didn't let you go to this battle to defend the national flag?"
Lei Zhen didn't know, so he didn't speak, he straightened his ears and listened carefully. He knew that Xie Jinyuan must have his own reasons for doing this.
"This battle to defend the national flag was planned by you throughout the whole process, and I just helped you implement the whole plan." Xie Jinyuan said: "So you are the commander-in-chief in this battle, I insist that you stay here, just to let you open your eyes to see everything that is happening clearly, and let you understand that as a commander, once a decision is made, it represents war and death." You must understand your surname, habits and knowledge deficiencies as soon as possible through this kind of actual combat, and supplement or correct them through learning to learn the surname, only in this way can you really grow up and become a qualified commander. ”
"Under normal circumstances, you should follow me as an operational staff officer, and after at least a year of actual combat exercises, I will hand over to you a unit and let you try to read to support the overall situation. But now, it's clear that I can't do it. Xie Jinyuan stared at Lei Zhen and said, "I'm sorry, due to the time limit, I can only do this at most, and you still need to explore the road by yourself in the future." ”
Lei Zhen didn't speak, he was gasping softly. After studying with Xie Jinyuan for so long, Lei Zhen has already learned to face any challenge on the battlefield and be calm, but at this time, looking at Xie Jinyuan who doesn't know when, the wisp of gray that has climbed up to the ends of his hair, Lei Zhen's body is trembling slightly.
Lei Zhen has always believed that Xie Jinyuan must have a better way to solve the crisis brought about by insisting on raising the national flag. But it was only at this time that Lei Zhen understood why Xie Jinyuan kept asking his opinion, knowing that his plan was too radical and bold, he still accepted his plan without reservation and implemented it completely.
Xie Jinyuan just wanted Lei Zhen to know that as a commander, he had the kind of responsibility he shouldered! Without the consciousness and ability to shoulder this responsibility, one is not worthy of being a qualified military commander at all!
Suddenly, Lei Zhen thought of an old saying...... Once it will be successful, ten thousand bones will wither!
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion again in the field where the outside had finally calmed down. It was in the midst of the shouting and scolding of the officers and soldiers of the lone battalion that the captain of the White Russians, with a machete in his hand, strode towards the flags for which the Chinese [***] people had fought to the death for a whole hour. At this time, a White Russian soldier smashed the military medical officer in the lonely barracks with the butt of his rifle in full view of everyone, and he hissed in stiff Chinese: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" If you don't get out of the way, I'll stone you to death! I know that he scalded me with boiling water, and I will never let him go, if you don't get out of the way, I will be rude to you! ”
The medic used his body to protect a young soldier who had been stabbed twice, and although he had been tied with a strip of cloth that was temporarily used as a hemostatic bandage, the blood still kept oozing from the wound.
(To be continued)
