[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 183: The Sword Pointing at Hukou (Ask for Subscription!) )
When the commendation order of the Nationalist Government and the Ninth Theater came, Ma Zheng was chatting and laughing with Wang Zhonglian at the Urban Defense Headquarters, accompanied by Zhang Xuezhong, commander of the 89th Division, and Huang Sicheng from the Seventh Division.
Wang Zhonglian was very interested in how Ma Zheng's troops captured Jiujiang, and he couldn't help but ask soon after he sat down: "Brother Ma Zheng, my brother has a doubt, don't vomit and be unhappy, I hope you can solve the fog in my heart!" ”
Ma Zheng smiled and said: "Commander Wang has something to say, as long as it does not involve the secret of our Duqi Division, Ma Zheng will naturally tell the truth!" ”
"How did you fight Jiujiang, although your defense area is not very far from Jiujiang, there are only two ways to get here, one is the waterway, and the other is to detour to Ruichang and then arrive at Jiujiang. My brother guards the line of Xintang, which is the only way to enter Jiujiang, and I haven't seen your department pass by there in the past two days, so I must have taken the waterway, and only by taking the waterway can I go straight to Huanglong so quickly. But the problem is that there are a large number of Japanese navies on the Yangtze River, how did you deceive the Japanese warships? Wang Zhonglian said immediately.
Ma Zheng smiled and said: "The Japanese are not so easy to deceive, so we didn't deceive them at all!" ”
"I didn't lie to them, so they let you go so easily? Isn't it that they see your military uniform as basically no different from theirs?"
"No, in fact, if you want to contact the threat of the Japanese Navy, the most direct and effective way is to kill them, and the rest are palliative but not root causes, which is not advisable!" Ma Zheng said.
"Killed? First, there are no naval ships, and second, there are no large-caliber coastal defense guns, how can they be killed? ”
Ma Zheng smiled and said, "We didn't have either, but we did it!" ”
"What. You did it, you mean you came to Jiujiang after you killed the Japanese naval fleet? Wang Zhonglian was taken aback by Ma Zheng's words.
"It's true, the 11th Squadron of the Japanese Third Fleet was basically wiped out by us on the surface of the Yangtze River, 32 enemy ships, no, now it should be 33 large and small ships captured. Now it is moored on the water outside Jiujiang City. Ma Zheng said.
"Really?"
"Do I have to lie to you?" Ma Zheng said with a smile.
"That's right, how did you do it?" Wang Zhonglian asked again.
"Actually, it's very simple, that is, when the enemy's defense in the sky and sea is lax, send sharp soldiers who are familiar with the water to quietly board the enemy ship. Getting on an enemy ship is equivalent to being on land, and we can't beat them on the water, but the combat effectiveness of the Japanese Navy is scum in close combat. It took less than an hour for more than 300 of our troops to wipe the necks of more than 1,000 Japanese sailors, and only two small gunboats escaped from the battlefield. Ma Zheng said.
"It's really a brother, I don't even know how to describe it, hahaha!" Wang Zhonglian said loudly.
"How are your casualties now?" Wang Zhonglian asked again.
"It's very heavy, almost more than half of the casualties! Pack up the Japanese Navy and the 47th Wing suffered few casualties, but our army suffered heavy casualties in the battle with the Hatada detachment Lion Rock! Ma Zheng said.
"That's not right. I remember that the 47th Wing seemed to be subordinate to the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, and now it should be resting in Jiangbei, when will you fight them? Wang Zhonglian immediately asked.
"Last night, the old thief of Botian asked for help from the Sixth Division, so the Sixth Division went straight to the Yangtze River ferry from Huangmei, and then boarded the ship to prepare to go to the front line of Yongan to wait for the opportunity to land, and then attacked Ruichang with the Botian detachment, but on the road encountered a large fleet captured by our department. Naturally, you won't be polite to this group of bitches. Directly sank their troop carrier with naval guns. Ma Zheng said.
"You mean to say that last night you not only annihilated a Japanese fleet and a detachment, but also annihilated a wing of the Sixth Division?" Wang Zhonglian asked in surprise.
"Hmm. It's a bit hard to believe, but it's true! Ma Zheng said.
"Brother, the combat effectiveness of your unit is too strong, I'm afraid the 74th Army may not be able to compare with you!" Wang Zhonglian said.
Ma Zheng shook his head and said: "To say that we are indeed stronger than ordinary troops in terms of combat effectiveness, but there is still a certain gap with the elite like the 74th Army." The main reason why our department was able to achieve such a record was because of its tactical superiority. ”
"Tactical advantage?"
"Yes. It is a tactical advantage, quiet as a stone when you don't shoot, and once you shoot, you have to hit the enemy's soft underbelly. ”
As soon as he said this, Huzi hurriedly came in and handed a telegram to Ma Zheng, and said at the same time: "Commander." Ninth War Zone Emergency Electricity! ”
Ma Zheng picked it up and looked at it, and then said with a smile: "Commander Wang, your department can enter the city!" ”
Saying that, Ma Zheng handed the telegram to Wang Zhonglian!
Wang Zhonglian took the telegram handed over by Ma Zheng and looked at it, and said: "The movement of the theater command is still quite fast, the two regiments are replenished, and they are all elite corps, you look at this 156th regiment, this is the main force of the 270th Division of the Fourth Army." This 188 regiment is also not unknown, it is the main regiment of the 72nd Army of the 30th Army. The war zone has supplemented these two regiments to your department, which can be seen as wanting to quickly restore the combat effectiveness of your department! ”
Then Wang Zhonglian continued: "To be honest, the above is really beyond my expectations! ”
Ma Zheng pretended to be ignorant and said: "Shouldn't the war zone be replenished if you lose in the battle?" ”
Wang Zhonglian smiled and said: "Brother Ma Zheng, what you think is too simple, what you say is right, the loss should indeed be supplemented." But you have to understand that now there are wars everywhere, and all the troops are short of troops, so the theater command does not have many reinforcements on its hands. Even if our lineage has suffered heavy losses, it is impossible for them to be replenished so quickly, let alone mobilize the main forces from other main forces to replenish them. ”
"Even if you really can't bear it and need to replenish your strength, the main regiments like the 156th Regiment and the 188th Regiment are at most assigned to the command of your department, not to supplement your department! Look at what this telegram says, the 156th Regiment and the 188th Regiment are now supplemented to your department, do you see it, it is a supplement! ”
"Is supplementation not the same as allocation?" Ma Zheng really didn't know about this, so he asked immediately.
"Of course it's different, the command is temporarily under your command, and you have to return to the construction after the battle. In the course of the battle, you can't disrupt other people's troops, you can only use them as a whole. But the supplement is different, the supplement is that the two regiments will belong to you in the future, you want to disrupt them or use them as a whole, it depends on your thoughts and mood! Wang Zhonglian said.
"I've been taught, it seems that the war zone still takes good care of me, a foreign monk!" Ma Zheng said with a smile.
"It's more than general care! It seems that the theater command still hopes that your department can create more brilliance! Wang Zhonglian said.
"Speaking of this, I really have an idea, but because the troops in my hands are seriously insufficient, if Commander Wang is interested, our two departments can be combined! Maybe even a big win! Ma Zheng said.
Wang Zhonglian is now impressed by Ma Zheng's tactical command level, and the shock brought by the thousands of Japanese corpses under the Lion Rock makes him inexplicably have a little more trust in Ma Zheng and the Duqi Division under his command, even if they belong to different camps.
"Oh, Brother Ma Zheng still wants to continue to shoot?" Wang Zhonglian immediately asked.
"We have traveled thousands of miles from Chanan to Wuhan, the purpose is not to visit the mountains and rivers, but to fight against Japan and fight devils, if there are fighters in front of us, we will naturally not miss it!" Ma Zheng said.
"Fighters, Brother Ma Zheng really thinks there are fighters right now?" Wang Zhonglian asked with shiny eyes.
"Of course, it depends on whether Commander Wang is willing to do a vote with my Duqi Division!" Ma Zheng said.
"If there is a good deal, our 13th Army will naturally not miss it, brother, please say what you think, if it is feasible, we will **** a vote for the two of us!" Wang Zhonglian is also a bold person, and immediately said loudly.
Ma Zheng strode to the map, poked his finger at a point on the map, and said: "This time we have completely annihilated the Botian detachment, so the first target is here!" ”
"Hukou, 101st Division?" Wang Zhonglian's eyes widened and he said. (To be continued.) )
