After Wu Mujun held the staff meeting, news from all sides continued to come.

After the South China Navy guerrillas were removed from their posts, Dai Li took over the command and sent the capable general Shen Zui as the commander, but Shen Zui did not understand the navy, and the real command was still in the hands of Ren Zhizhong, and Shen Zui did not go to the post at all, and only sent cadres to supervise the South China Navy guerrillas and not to contact other units.

In the later stage of the Battle of Changheng, as soon as the devil troops in Guangzhou moved, the intelligence of the military commander was in the hands of Ren Zhizhong, so the "Bottom of the Cauldron Salary Drawing Operation" was launched.

Ren Zhizhong first transferred more than 200 ships to within 50 nautical miles of Hong Kong and Macao, and transported all kinds of captured artillery, ammunition, and military supplies to Yu Hanmou in the Seventh War Zone, and exchanged supplies with Yu Hanmou's Seventh War Zone to launch a maritime guerrilla war around the periphery of Guangzhou Bay.

Ren Zhizhong decided to send ships to occupy a foothold in the Pearl River Estuary, Huidong, and Shanwei areas on both sides of Guangzhou Bay.

12 torpedo boats, minesweepers, and gunboats equipped with Foguang Flying Mines turned into fierce monsters, and launched an attack on Xiachuan Island and Shangchuan Island with great momentum.

With a foothold, Ren Zhizhong made persistent efforts to expand Shenzao, Chuandao, Guanghai, Chixi, the Pearl River estuary and the islands in one go, and established and consolidated coastal harbors and peninsulas as base areas.

Ren Zhizhong commanded more than 20 warships of more than 50 tons to ransack dozens of small islands on the periphery of Guangzhou Bay, and divided the islands into five pieces that watched and helped each other: Niutou Island, West Kok Tsui, Niujiao Tsui, Nan Kok Tsui, and North Kok Tsui with Guishan Island as the core and more than a dozen small islands attached to them formed the West Island Group, and deployed 12 small gunboats on Guishan Island, Niujiao Tsui, and Nanjiao Tsui, and 5 8 Buddha Light Flying Mines; With Wanshan Island as the core, more than a dozen islands, including Xiaowanshan Island, Baili Island, Dong'ao Island, Xiaolie Island, Huangmao Island, and Zhuzhouzi Island, form the South Island Group, and deploy 7 Foguang Flying Mines and 8 small gunboats on Wanshan Island, Xiaowanshan Island, Baili Island, and Dong'ao Island; Luozhou Island, Songgang Island, and Henglan Island with Potai Island as the core form the North Island Group, equipped with 3 Foguang Flying Mines and 4 small gunboats; With Erdan Island as the core, Aizhou Island, Henggang Island, Sanmen Island, Zhuwantou Island, Dashigu Island, etc., constitute the middle island group, because each island is relatively small, so it is only equipped with 1 4-pack Foguang Flying Thunder, 4 4-pack Tianyu Flying Thunder; Erzhou Island, Zhiwan Island, and Xiedan Island, with Dangan Island as the core, form the East Island Group, and deploy 8 Foguang Flying Mines and 4 small gunboats; Several groups of islands supported each other, destroying the devil's navigational beacons, controlling the channel of Canton Bay, and providing support to the ships of passing guerrillas.

Ren Zhizhong led the warships all the way north, and connected several peninsulas north of Guangzhou Bay as a base area.

Of course, the devil knew what Ren Zhizhong was going to do, and he sent heavy warships to encircle and suppress: 1 heavy cruiser, 2 light cruisers, 5 destroyers, and 11 frigates were transferred from Shanghai, Hangzhou Bay, Taiwan, and Hainan Island, and after assembling in Kaohsiung, they went to Guangzhou Bay.

Of course, a fleet of such a size did not bother to compete with the sea guerrillas island by island, and as soon as they came up, they rushed into the islands on the outskirts of Guangzhou Bay and bombed the islands together with the powerful bombardment of naval artillery.

For a time, the devil's fleet stabbed the hornet's nest, and the Foguang Flying Mines deployed on the islands counterattacked with dense firepower that the devil's navy had never seen, and sank 1 destroyer and 3 frigates in the first round of counterattacks.

However, there are still many devil naval guns, and they are powerful, and they quickly suppressed the flying mines of the sea guerrillas, and the flying mines of the sea guerrillas were destroyed a lot, and the remnants had to be hidden by the flags, but the landing operation of the devils was blocked by the sea guerrillas on the beachhead, and the efficiency of a single flying mine was also amazing, and a large area was blown down with one shot!

The black devil had no choice but to withdraw to the warship.

The night is the world of the sea guerrillas, and one by one the small gunboats approach the devil's warship, firing pieces of armor-piercing bullets and flying mines, and running away after the fight, the devils have no choice but blind shelling.

In the second half of the night, the devils did not dare to move when they saw the lighthouse guidance, and they also knew that the sea guerrillas would use the navigation lights to make ghosts, but they only bombarded the location of the navigation lights with naval guns.

The Foguang Flying Thunder on each island is to ask the devil warship to provide targets, and then use the flying thunder to launch a night attack.

In the island area of just a few dozen nautical miles, it took seven days for the devil warships to clear them one by one, and they also captured seven Foguang flying mines of the sea guerrillas, wiped out more than 300 sea guerrillas, destroyed 11 combat ships, opened up the channel of Guangzhou Bay, and more than 100 transport ships that were blocked by the sea guerrillas outside Guangzhou Bay sailed into Guangzhou Port.

Ren Zhizhong sacrificed the garrison soldiers stationed on the islands in exchange for the fighters they wanted. More than 300 large and small ships carried Buddha light flying thunder, heavenly rain flying thunder, old-fashioned whale flying mines, naval guns, modified naval guns, mortars, infantry guns, rapid-fire guns, meteor flying mines, and light and heavy machine guns launched a suicide attack on Guangzhou Bay.

These small ships are like locusts, whether they are merchant ships or warships, they attack when they see ships, and rush up one after another, like pirates.

Ren Zhizhong and Liu Mao'er learned a lot of tricks, and sent people in advance to sprinkle a large number of sea starfire from the upper reaches of Guangzhou Port, and the sea starfire stuck to the devil's ship to provide night combat targets for the guerrillas, so that the guerrilla ships could fight all night.

After two days and nights, the devil's fleet and merchant ships were blocked by the guerrillas in Guangzhou Bay and sank hundreds of ships, Guangzhou Bay was full of floating goods and corpses, and hundreds of thousands of tons of materials continued by the devils sank to the bottom of the sea, and Ren Zhizhong's troops also lost two-thirds, but Ren Zhizhong did not regret it, and the loss of thousands of people and hundreds of ships was exchanged for hundreds of big ships and tens of thousands of casualties of the devils, so that the army brothers reduced a lot of casualties, and it was worth it! Don't look at Lao Tzu who has lost so many ships, as long as there are devils' ships, Lao Tzu can grab them, and he can also form a bigger sea guerrilla team!

When Ren Zhizhong reflected, he couldn't help but think of Liu Maoer, if Commander Liu was here, I don't know how he would fight? Will it be as desperate as yourself? Thinking of this, Ren Zhizhong couldn't sleep, so he sent a report to Liu Maoer overnight to ask for advice.

Liu Maoer called back and affirmed Ren Zhizhong's style of play, even if it was replaced by Liu Maoer himself, he would definitely use this desperate style of play when the country was in danger! Heroic! Enjoyable!

Taking advantage of the devil's inability to fight back, Ren Zhizhong withdrew from Guangzhou Bay with the remnants of his troops, and the devils in Hong Kong were overwhelmed and actually sent more than 30 gunboats to block the fleet of the maritime guerrillas.

Although Ren Zhizhong was at the end of his crossbow at this time, he still rose up to deal with the devil gunboat team that came to pick up ready-made cheap.

More than 10 small gunboats pounced on the devil's gunboat team, and used rapid-fire guns, old-fashioned meteor flying mines, and anti-aircraft machine guns to meet the devil's gunboat, which had only one flat-fire gun.

The Devil's Gunboat Squadron could not even defeat the small gunboats of the sea guerrillas, so they had to withdraw to Hong Kong.

Ren Zhi did not give up and attacked Lantau Island on the outskirts of Hong Kong, and the larger warships provided fire support with the Buddha's light and thunder, and the small gunboats rushed up and broke into the island.

Ren Zhizhong commanded the remnants to land on the outlying islands and occupy Lantau Island. Although the guerrillas were exhausted, the light and heavy machine guns, Qiguang submachine guns, and sufficient light weapons and ammunition that had not been consumed in the naval battle added a lot of combat strength to the guerrillas, and after a day and a night of hard fighting, they finally occupied Lantau Island.

Ren Zhizhong ordered the troops to organize defense, replenish fuel supplies, and seize the rest and recuperation.

Braving the artillery fire and bombardment of the devils, Ren Zhizhong insisted on fighting and resting on Lantau Island for four days, and then evacuated Lantau Island overnight and scattered to the vast South China Sea.

The devils suffered a big loss, and a group of warships were sent to clean up and suppress them, but the exhausted sea guerrillas had no time to take care of the devils, so they fortified the ships and sneaked inland to rest and recuperate.

The devils were defeated in the Pacific Theater one after another, so the ships that were transferred to the southeast coast of China were hastily cleared and then hurried back to the Pacific Theater.

Ren Zhizhong had many eyes and ears along the coast, and when he received the news that a large number of devils and ships had withdrawn, he immediately organized the troops to adjust and integrate the troops, and launched another attack on Hong Kong.

The devils were no longer able to send troops to the outlying islands of Hong Kong, so the ministers were appointed to drive straight into Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong is mainly composed of Hong Kong Island, the Kowloon Peninsula, the New Territories and Lantau Island, and a group of small islands.

The first part of the flotilla occupied Lamma Island and then inserted it into the hinterland of Hong Kong from between Hong Kong Island and Lantau Island. The devils have always been strong in the outside and in the middle, and the rear hinterland is really weak, and the troops are invincible in the middle of it, plundering grain, sugar, cooking oil, guns and ammunition, and the most important thing is to loot oil, all kinds of gasoline, diesel, and lubricating oil......

When the devil reacted, he dispatched troops from the periphery to encircle and suppress it, and Ren Zhi had already made a lot of money. However, Ren Zhizhong still has to leave some shameful marks on the devil to avenge his loss of soldiers.

The fleet gathered at Stonecutters Island and then burst between Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, Hong Kong's wealthiest waterway, flanked by bustling districts. Ren Zhizhong ordered the destruction of the barracks and fortifications near the shore of the devils, and then looted the materials on a large scale, especially the mansions of the devil officers, the quarters of the devils in the barracks, and seized a large number of yuan, Hong Kong dollars, pounds, US dollars, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, because the ships were overloaded, Ren Zhizhong ordered to distribute some grain to the local residents in exchange for kerosene, horse lanterns, batteries, flashlights, radios, paper, machines and other things.

The devils finally blocked the money-obsessed Ren Zhizhong in the narrow waterway, blocked the water with all the ships, artillery, and machine guns that could be used, and planes also rushed over to bomb indiscriminately.

Ren Zhizhong showed his hideous face at this time, and the ship put out the Buddha's light flying thunder, the heavenly rain flying thunder, and the 123 type flying thunder launched a fire assault on the devil's land, water surface, and air.

The devil could not have imagined that the guerrillas still had such a strong fighting force, and in addition to losing more than 10 planes, more than 10 ships, and dozens of artillery pieces, the troops suffered more than 3,000 casualties, and they could only retreat their positions to wait for reinforcements.

Ren Zhizhong calmly loaded the materials on the shore with the capacity vacated by the consumption of ammunition, and entered the open sea from the Shek O area in a dashing manner, without a trace.

Shen Zui saw that the South China Navy guerrillas had suffered heavy losses, and hurriedly rushed to inspect them in person. Seeing that the guerrillas were suffering from a great loss of vitality, they took out a batch of combat food, medicine, condolences, and rewards from the United States, and privately reminded Ren Zhizhong that the devil had already been defeated, and that he should not lose all his old money, but persist until the victory of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and reserve the next seed for the Chinese Navy.

Looking at the results and seizures reported by Ren Zhizhong, Shen Zui sincerely admired Ren Zhizhong: in this period of operations, more than 2,900 people were killed and more than 5,000 were seriously injured, 107 large and small ships were lost, with a total displacement of 12,000 tons, 19 Foguang Flying Thunder Launchers, 37 Tianyu Flying Thunder Launchers, more than 1,200 Foguang Flying Thunder Launchers, more than 3,200 Tianyu Flying Thunders, 149 artillery pieces, more than 30,000 artillery shells, more than 400 tons of oil, and a number of other weapons and equipment, food, medicine and other materials; sank or damaged 23 medium and large ships, 77 small ships, 31 aircraft, more than 50 army artillery pieces, sank or damaged 123 merchant ships and transport ships, destroyed 11 ports and wharves, destroyed more than 400,000 tons of devil materials, seized a large number of food, medicines, weapons and ammunition totaling more than 500 tons, more than 700 tons of oil, more than 7,000 taels of gold, more than 250,000 taels of silver and ocean, and a number of other jewelry; 210,000 yuan, 1.9 million Hong Kong dollars, 150,000 pounds, 430,000 dollars, military hand tickets and other currencies......

For the credit at his fingertips, Shen was drunk and decided by himself, so he discussed with Ren Zhizhong how to dispose of the seized materials.

Ren Zhizhong said that the unit has suffered heavy losses recently and continues to replenish equipment and ammunition, so the captured Yue Yuan is reserved for the troops' expenses, and the US dollars, pounds, gold and silver are used to directly purchase flying mines, food, medicine, and oil to supplement the troops, and a part of the guns and ammunition can be used to support the Seventh Theater.

Shen Zui had no choice but to revise and shrink the results of the battle and report it to the Military Commission, and at the same time suggested that the Military Commission should not make a big deal about the situation of the South China Navy guerrillas to avoid attracting the attention of the devils.

The chairman of the committee was very satisfied with the results of the South China Navy guerrillas reported by the military commanders, and ordered a reward of 500,000 legal dollars......

Compared with Ren Zhizhong's desperate battle on the southeast coast, Ouyang Cheng can be said to have shown great power on the battlefield of China and Burma.

Ouyang Cheng's Sichuan-Hunan-Hubei Mobile Division was transferred to Wei Lihuang's expeditionary force, because the old base of the troops were artillery, armored troops, air defense troops, sailors, air defense troops, engineers, joint logistics troops and other technical arms, and they were all veterans of a hundred battles, so they were expanded by Wei Lihuang into a reinforced division, as a reserve directly under the expeditionary force headquarters, and the number was the temporary 99th division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force.

Division Commander Ouyang Cheng, with the rank of Lieutenant General, Deputy Division Commander Liu Maoer, with the rank of Lieutenant General, Chief of Staff Ke Hua, and commander of the Artillery Brigade with the rank of Major General.

The artillery brigade has a flying thunder regiment and 40 Foguang flying mine launchers; a heavy artillery regiment, 54 150mm American-made howitzers; a joint logistics regiment with 170 5-ton American-made trucks; an air defense battalion equipped with radios, motorcycles, jeeps and other American-made infantry equipment, and 20 Foguang-1 Flying Mine Launchers; more than 4,000 people;

Armored Brigade Commander Niu Daojia, with the rank of Major General, Deputy Brigade Commander Liang Ruxiang, with the rank of Major General, has a tank battalion, 9 heavy tanks, 9 medium tanks, 18 light tanks, 9 armored command vehicles, 24 support vehicles, 3 armored infantry battalions, 120 armored personnel carriers, 1 artillery battalion, including an air defense company equipped with 20 Tianyu-1 Flying Thunder launchers and 24 anti-aircraft guns, 1 artillery company equipped with 9 105mm cannons, and 1 light flying thunder company equipped with 40 Tianyu Flying Thunder launchers; more than 6,000 people;

Special Support Brigade, Brigade Commander Liu Maoer, Lieutenant General, Deputy Division Commander Zhu Dun, Major General, 1 Water Corps, 120 American-made assault boats, 60 water supply ships; 1 engineering regiment, 180 trucks and corresponding engineering equipment such as boat bridges, civil engineering, and road construction; 1 joint logistics regiment, 120 trucks; More than 6,000 people......

Wei Lihuang is meritocracy, and Ouyang Cheng also reciprocated the favor and repaid Wei Lihuang for his kindness with brilliant achievements.

When the Battle of Songshan was blocked, Wei Lihuang ordered Ouyang Cheng to lead reinforcements to increase the attack power of the expeditionary force. Ouyang Cheng gladly accepted the order and sent Ke Hua's artillery brigade to Songshan quickly.

Ke Hua rushed to Songshan, that is, he got in touch with the 71st Army and agreed on a coordinated battle plan.

** The Yinshan attack on the outskirts of Songshan was blocked, and it was repeatedly overcome, so Ke Hua suggested that the 71st Army temporarily retreat, so as not to be accidentally injured by its own powerful bombardment, and at the same time paralyze the devils to defend the enemy, and give heavy casualties when the devils counterattack.

Sure enough, the retreat of the 71st Army attracted the devil ** to recover the lost position, Ke Hua took the opportunity to launch a fire offensive, and gave a large number of casualties to the devil's surface fortifications, and the 71st Army took advantage of the situation ** to capture Yin Mountain.

Then, Ke Hua did the same and helped the 71st Army to take Rolling Dragon Slope.

Ke Hua found that his intensive fire bombing had a limited effect on the devil's strong underground fortress, and at the same time saw that the heavy bombs of the US bombers also had limited damage to the devil's fortifications, so he urgently sent a telegram to Xishan to provide a batch of Foguang II flying mines, which was best to increase the explosive power and increase the damage to the devil's fortifications.

Unfortunately, the rainy season came, cutting off the supply channels of the expeditionary force, and even the rations of the troops became a problem, and the ammunition could not be delivered at all.

Ke Hua could not afford to wait, so he ordered the artillerymen to transform the armor-piercing shells with hollow charges, load them with high-explosive charges in oil barrels, and install them on the launching parts of flying mines.

Ke Hua was urging the troops to modify the Buddha Light Flying Thunder, and the air defense battalion reported that a devil plane was coming, Ke Hua slapped his mouth, "What a fool, don't give me a shot!" ”

The devil's plane was airdropped to the devils in the Songshan stronghold, because it was located in a mountainous area, the plane did not dare to fly at a low altitude, and only dropped supplies at a high altitude. Ke Hua's air defense battalion waited for the devil plane to reduce its altitude and missed the opportunity, and only shot down some of the supplies airdropped by the devil, so ** and the devil divided the airdrop supplies, and they all received limited replenishment.

In view of the fact that the battle on the Songshan side could not be carried out, and the area was narrow and crowded, Wei Lihuang ordered Ke Hua to rush to Tengchong first to reinforce the 53rd Army and the 54th Army.

When Ke Hua arrived at Tengchong, ** had already broken through most of the periphery of Tengchong, only the devils in Tengchong City and outside the city of Fengshan resisted stubbornly with the help of strong fortifications, and the 53rd and 54th armies were also sleepy and short of ammunition even when they were fighting.

After Ke Hua arrived, he immediately used a modified hollow charge of high-explosive flying mines to bomb the devil's fortifications in Fengshan, and Chennault's planes also came to help in the battle, and most of the pillboxes on Fengshan were blown apart in the future, leaving a few strong pillboxes to be solved by the infantry.

Without waiting for the end of the battle at Fengshan, Ke Hua waved his troops and pointed directly at Tengchong City, first bombarded the city with the 150mm howitzer of the heavy artillery regiment, destroyed the fortifications of the devil's city, and suppressed the opponent's firepower.
