Chapter 13: Counteroffensive Counts
The radio team sent by Dai Li, one named Zu Jing and the other named Dai Heng, were responsible for reporting to Dai Li on the situation in Shanghai.
On August 5, Wang Laodun came to report that all the tunnels leading to the various points of the Japanese garrison were dug through. Tuesday the dog perked up: "What are you waiting for? Fuck it! What do you steal from the lack of arms, oil, and medicines? ”
Wang Laodun and Ma Yihang took their disciples and subordinates and began to be "porters"!
Medicines, gauze, scalpels, syringes, stethoscopes, move away!
Grenades, explosives, fuses, move!
Bullets, rifles, light machine guns, grenadiers, move away!
Lunch boxes, kettles, armed belts, tools, steel helmets, move!
Canned food, military uniforms, duvets, don't!
Wood, saddles, riding gear, don't!
Gasoline, diesel, lubricating oil, you can move as much as you can!
Tires, steel pipes, steel plates, you can move as much as you can!
Tanks, cars, artillery, heavy machine guns, you can't move them! Add some material to them: fill the barrels of artillery and tanks with a little glue and sand, add sugar to the fuel tanks of cars to block the oil pipes, and move the muzzles of heavy machine guns a little bit for him......
Wang Laodun only hated that the tunnel was dug too narrow, the Japanese had too many good things, and the transportation speed was too slow!
On Tuesday, the dog was not idle, first sent Shi Jilun to find out the activities of Japanese civilians in Shanghai, and then determined the strongholds of the Japanese ronin one by one, including various casinos, brothels, smoke houses, Japanese restaurants, grocery stores, trading houses and other places, which were divided into pieces by Liu Maoer, Lu Ao, Wan Zixiong, Zhou Dagou, Liu Qinghe and others, and then formulated plans, rehearsed training, and prepared for a comprehensive counterattack.
On the evening of August 8, Wang Laodun came to report that the Japanese had discovered the tunnel under the arsenal, and flooded the tunnel, drowning two brothers.
On Tuesday, the dog was furious, and if he hurt my brother, he had to pay for the Japanese life! He called Liu Qinghe and asked him to quickly design an arson plan and burn his mother! On the other hand, let Wang Laodun pay close attention to several other holes, as long as the Japanese find the holes, they will blow them up, and they can use explosives to blow up the Japanese military camp!
However, Wang Laodun thought that the blasting ability could not be reached, and it was safer to blow up the hole for the purpose. Tuesday the dog had no choice but to agree!
At midnight, Wang Laodun came to report again, and two more holes were discovered.
It just so happened that Liu Qinghe had made 50 delay igniters and came over.
On Tuesday, the dog took the igniter and looked at it, it turned out that the military kettle was filled with kerosene, and then a few small pieces of yellow phosphorus were put in, and several holes were drilled in the bottom of the military kettle, which were blocked with screws, and the mouth of the kettle was plugged with cotton silk; When the kerosene runs out, the yellow phosphorus is exposed to the air and spontaneously combusts, igniting the oil-stained cotton silk and the kerosene flowing around.
On Tuesday, the dog was full of praise and asked Liu Qinghe to set fire with Wang Laodun!
In the early morning of August 9, a raging fire broke out in the warehouse of the Japanese military camp, and the Japanese soldiers desperately put out the fire. The surrounding Chinese civilians also came to help, "by the way" to pick up a little foreign children, they only choose clothes, Western medicine, canned food, kettles, tea jars, basins, buckets, wrenches, pliers, wires, steel pipes, faucets and other useful things to "grab" rescue, the people of Shanghai, know the goods!
The Japanese soldiers found out the intentions of the Chinese civilians, so they divided some soldiers to drive them away, and the people of Shanghai were still very knowledgeable, seeing that the Japanese soldiers did not appreciate it very much, and did not care that the Japanese were ignorant, so they ran away with some things!
A Japanese lieutenant named Eio Oyama was very distressed when he saw a Chinese civilian taking away a pair of Japanese boots, and at the same time thought that the loss of a pair of leather boots deeply hurt the self-esteem of the Japanese Imperial Army. So he led a soldier Saito to hide and chase after him, he rushed to the Chinese defense area, regardless of the warnings of the Chinese guards, regardless of hitting several Chinese guards, he was determined to recover the leather boots and regain the dignity of the Imperial Japanese Army regardless of everything! The unbearable Chinese soldiers fired, causing a "tragedy caused by a pair of leather boots", and even triggered the later "August 13 Shanghai Anti-Japanese War"!
On Tuesday, regardless of the fire in the Japanese military camp, the dog was counting the results of Wang Laodun's excavation for a month: a Type 92 heavy machine gun, more than 5,000 bullets, 12 crooked machine guns, 120 Type 38 rifles, 30,000 bullets, 50 Nanfang-style pistols, 1,000 bullets, 1,200 grenades, 30 grenades, 1,200 grenades, 4 82 mortars, more than 160 shells, 1,200 pounds of explosives, 300 meters of fuse, and more than 450 steel helmets. There are also more than 500 shells of various calibers; Other medicines, gauze, medical equipment, lunch boxes, water bottles, armed belts, tools, 24 cans of Japanese canned food, 2 boxes of cigarettes......
On Tuesday, the dog was planning how to dispose of these materials, and Shi Jilun came to report: There is a distinguished guest visiting! When the dog heard this, he hurriedly sorted out his clothes and greeted him, because the person who came turned out to be the old chief Zhao Dahu!
After the Fujian Incident, Zhao Dahu was absorbed by the Central Army from the Guangdong Army, and became the commander of the supplementary regiment of the 87th Division several times. This time I came to Shanghai to investigate.
On Tuesday, Gou knew that the military situation was in full swing, so he immediately accompanied Zhao Dahu to travel around the important areas of Shanghai by car, and handed over the Japanese army situation map made in advance to Zhao Dahu, and at the same time asked Zhao Dahu to send people to train his own men. Zhao Dahu agreed and made an appointment with Tuesday Dog.
On Tuesday, August 11, Gou saw in the newspaper that the Japanese were making unreasonable demands on the death of Eio Oyama, and arrogantly proposed: The Chinese side should withdraw the Shanghai security forces and remove all fortifications. The second dog is furious!
On that day, all Japanese trading houses, guild houses, casinos, brothels, tobacco houses, and other business establishments in Shanghai were looted as never before, their property was looted, and Japanese nationals were severely beaten. Then the murderer disappeared without a trace.
On August 12, Tuesday Dog gathered in the playground of a middle school in Huajie, Shanghai, where almost all of Tuesday Dog's armed forces gathered:
Personnel: 50 pistol guards, led by He Laifu; 300 pistol teams, led by Lu Ao; 300 people in the fast gun team, 30 people in the fast gun horse team, led by Wan Zixiong; The machine gun team is 100 people, led by Liu Maoer; The long knife team is 100 people, led by Zhou Dagou; 100 people in the gun team, led by Zhou Dagou; 200 crossbow teams, led by Liu Qinghe; The 300-person earthwork team, led by Wang Laodun, has a total of 1,480 people.
In addition, there are 100 trucks, more than 500 carts, more than 1,000 trolleys, 100 rickshaws, and more than 2,700 drivers, drivers and porters.
Zhao Dahu sent a teaching company to help with Tuesday dog training, and the company commander called Xiang Qingyun. Xiang Qingyun is a veteran who has gone to a military academy and has a lot of training experience: the original pistol team, fast gun team, and machine gun team have remained unchanged, and in addition to training basic individual soldier skills (shooting, bomb throwing, creeping, leaping forward, building fortifications, etc.), they also train marching, combat formation, learning command orders, and mainly training firepower assault, suppression, cover, and configuration and coordination......
The establishment of the long knife team, the spear team, and the earthwork team remains unchanged, and they are specially trained according to the basic items and the characteristics and functions of each team......
100 people with good gun sense were selected from each team to form a sharpshooter team to conduct sniper training and be equipped with Type 38 rifles.
50 people were selected from the rickshaw drivers to form a special task force to conduct communication and liaison training, and to be equipped with southern-style pistols.
60 people were selected from the porters, equipped with crooked machine guns and Type 92 heavy machine guns, and 100 people from the crossbow team were allocated 30 grenadiers to form a fire team.
Other staff members are supplemented by volunteers of drivers, drivers, and porters.
Xiang Qingyun had never been so arrogant, and he had expected what would happen, and because he had great autonomy in training, he trained these civilians according to his own ideas, even though some of them were bandits or veterans.
On Tuesday, the dog's centaurs just started training, and the "August 13 Incident" broke out!
Tuesday Dog was in a hurry, he coaxed Xiang Qingyun to intimidate and supervise the training progress, which made Xiang Qingyun very disgusted with Tuesday Dog: Why didn't he want to train the team out quickly!
On Tuesday, the dog also demonstrated in person, shooting pistols, rifles, machine guns, and machine guns, building individual fortifications, throwing bombs, climbing over obstacles, and all kinds of individual soldier techniques were simply perfect, which made Xiang Qingyun convincing to treat him differently!
The training is absolutely devilish, everyone only sleeps 4 hours a day, but fortunately, the food is good, and there is fish and meat at the meal! On Tuesday, the dog really made a bloody investment.
On Tuesday, the dog has been thinking about the four mortars, but firstly, the artillery operation requires the soldiers to be educated, and it will take time, and secondly, Xiang Qingyun does not know how to operate artillery.
Zhao Dahu's troops were pulled up on August 15. He was taken aback when he saw Tuesday Dog's men: "Zhou Wumu, you raise so many guns and want to be a warlord?" ”
"I'm sorry, my subordinates are warlords in the concession in Shanghai, but the Ministry of Industry of the concession doesn't admit it, they say I'm a gangster!" Tuesday the dog was very proud.
"You should hurry up the training and be a supplementary soldier for Lao Tzu in the future!" Zhao Dahu's eyes lit up.
"Just a word, sir!" Tuesday the dog "clicked" a stand.
On August 23, Xiang Qingyun received a notice that he must rush to Wusongkou at 10 a.m. on the 24th. After the dog learned about it on Tuesday, he asked Xiang Qingyun to lead the "Zhou Jiajun" to go together.
Xiang Qingyun is not allowed to make decisions without the orders of his superiors. On Tuesday, the dog had no choice but to follow Xiang Qingyun to the front line on his own! Along the way, the equipment of this militia without military uniforms made the elite German armorers of the main force red-eyed!
Thinking that they were about to start a full-scale counteroffensive against the Japanese, the dogs and the gang were so happy on Tuesday that their mouths were crooked!
