Chapter 19: No Retreat (I)
After sending away Liu Xin and the soldiers of the guard platoon, only Yue Weihan and a few company platoon commanders were left in the headquarters.
Looking around at several company platoon commanders with burning eyes, Yue Wei said solemnly: "Brothers, the selfish and cowardly British will never offend the little devils for us, so retreating into the public concession and surrendering to the British army can only be a dead end, but we can't hold out for too long in the Sixing warehouse, at most half a month, our ammunition will be exhausted, before that, we must evacuate!" ”
Cao Xinglong frowned and said: "The camp, the Sixing warehouse has been surrounded by the little devils on three sides, and the little devils' troops have a wing, if they forcibly break through, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed, and they can still break through from the Suzhou Creek, but now the water is too cold, and there are devil gunboats patrolling and blocking, and now this road is not passable." ”
Liu Tiezhu suddenly said: "Yingzao, why don't you break through from the public concession?" We can't do a wing of little devils, but the hundreds and dozens of British devils on the other side of the river are a piece of cake! As long as you give an order from the camp, our guard platoon can kill us across the bridge with a charge, as long as we cross the bridge, it will be difficult for the little devils to catch up with us again. ”
"No, what's your bad idea?" Yue Weihan said coldly, "It is not difficult to deal with more than 100 British devils on the other side of the river, but the international disputes caused by this are not something we can imagine, if we Baoshan Camp really do what you say, then you and I will become sinners of the entire Chinese nation!" ”
Yue Weihan's words are not nonsense, but behind the Shanghai Public Concession stood the number one power in the world at that time - the British Empire! In order to avoid accidentally bombing the public concession, the military did not even dare to use heavy artillery and heavy aerial bombs.
"His grandmother." Chi Chengfeng scratched his head and said, "Yingzuo, then what do you say?" ”
"If you want me to say, we still have to break through from the front, and we have to break through where the little devils least expect it." Yue Weihan said this deliberately, and then said, "We broke through from the direction where the little devil's headquarters is located, but we can't break through forcibly, the old way, change into the military uniform of the little devil and make up the devil soldiers, and look for an opportunity to break through!" ”
"Yingza, I'm afraid it's not easy, right?" Cao Xinglong said worriedly, "The little devil has already suffered two losses from our Baoshan Camp?" It's time to be vigilant, right? Besides, where are you going to get more than 200 sets of devil uniforms in a hurry? Although there are a lot of corpses of devil soldiers outside, most of them have been smashed and blown up, and it is easy to expose them if you wear them. ”
Yue Weihan nodded and said, "Dalong, your worries are very reasonable, so we have to break through from the direction where the little devil's headquarters is located, so that the possibility of success will be greater." ”
"That's weird." Niu Dagen said curiously, "The location of the little devil's headquarters is bound to be more vigilant, how can it be more likely to succeed in breaking through from here?" ”
The rest of the platoon commanders also nodded yes, obviously not quite understanding what Yue Weihan meant.
Yue Weihan said with a smile: "What about the little devil's command being heavily guarded? To tell you the truth, the more troops the little devils station in the direction of the headquarters, and the more heavily guarded they are, the better it will be for us. ”
"Yingza, you should say it quickly, how is it neat?" Niu Dagen was so anxious that he scratched his ears and said.
"Or dig a tunnel!" Yue Weihan said in a condensed voice, "Dig a tunnel to the bottom of the devil headquarters, and then bury all the thousands of catties of explosives left for us by the counselor, and then as long as there is a bang, hehe, the little devil's wing headquarters and the surrounding devil barracks will be all fucking heaven!" ”
"Okay, that's a good idea!" Niu Dagen slapped his thigh fiercely and said excitedly, "I'll take someone to dig it up." ”
"What's the hurry? You stupid big black coarse! Yue Weihan said with a smile, "Do you know where the little devil headquarters is?" ”
"yes, where's the little devil wing headquarters?" Niu Dagen was a little dumbfounded at the moment, "Yingza, do you know? ”
Yue Weihan smiled slightly, and said: "Have you noticed, on the roof of the three-story building to the west of us, there are two antennas, since there are antennas, I think there must be a radio station in the building, since there is a radio station, there must be the wing headquarters of the little devils, but the three-story building is more than two hundred meters away from us, and it is not possible to dig such a long tunnel in three or five days." ”
Cao Xinglong said: "Camp, although it is troublesome to dig tunnels, it can always be dug well in a few more days, but what about more than 200 sets of devil uniforms?" ”
"As for the devil's military uniform...... Yue Weihan smiled slightly, and suddenly turned his head to look at Liu Xin not far away, "This matter has to fall on our second lieutenant Liu Xin." ”
…………
Shanghai Xixiao, 98th Division Headquarters.
Xia Zhongyu angrily threw the pencil in his hand on the map, and said angrily: "Damn, this battle can't be fought, once the little devil lands in Jinshanwei, he can drive straight to the north, once Songjiang is lost, our back road will be completely fucking broken, and then the two little devils will be able to form an encirclement, and the more than 70 divisions on the Songhu front line will all be dumplings!" ”
Just a moment ago, the Songhu Theater Commander's Headquarters informed all group armies and divisions of the latest battle report.
The Technical Section of the Secrecy Bureau once again deciphered the code of the Japanese Army, and learned that the base camp of the Japanese Army had been newly organized into the Central China Front of the Chinese Invasion Army, with Matsui Ishine as the commander-in-chief, and that in addition to the original sequence of the Shanghai Army, the 10th Army had newly added the 10th Army, which was under the jurisdiction of the 6th, 8th, and 114th Divisions, and the Guoqi Detachment (9th Brigade).
At dawn tomorrow, the Tenth Army will land in Jinshanwei in the north of Hangzhou Bay, and at this time, the main division of [***] has all been transferred to Shanghai Xixiao to fight against the Shanghai Dispatch Army, only two companies of the local security regiment are stationed in the Jinshanwei area, and what is even worse is that there is no regular army garrison from Jinshanwei to the north to Songjiang County!
And time is pressing, at this time it is impossible to make adjustments to strengthen the Jinshanwei defense line, because the main division closest to Jinshanwei is hundreds of miles away, and when they arrive in a hurry, they are afraid that the daylily will already be cold, let alone strengthen the Jinshanwei defense line, it will become a delicacy in the mouth of the tenth army of the Yue Army.
Chief of Staff Huang Meiwu nodded and sighed: "Yes, the Songhu area is already undefendable, and the decline of the Battle of Songhu is irretrievable. ”
"But the Chief's Department ordered us to stay where we were!" Xia Zhongyu slapped the table angrily, and said lightly, "It's really damn." ”
"The general seat is not listening to the commission?" Huang Meiwu sneered, "As for the commission, hum, he still has illusions about the Western powers, always thinking that [***] will hold on to the Songhu battlefield for a few more days, and it will not be too late to retreat after the UN General Assembly meeting is over, but he doesn't want to think that maybe just because of the delay in these few days, the nearly one million army of more than 70 main divisions will be wiped out!" ”
"Damn, why don't we also learn from the Baoshan Battalion and disobey on the battlefield?" Xia Zhongyu didn't have a good airway.
The disobedience of Yue Weihan and the Baoshan Battalion on the battlefield has been spread among the senior generals of the Songhu Theater.
Speaking of which, this was originally a secret telegram exchange between the commission and the Baoshan battalion, but somehow it was stabbed out, and the result was an uproar, including Xia Zhongyu and Huang Meiwu, no one thought that Yue Weihan, the small battalion commander, would dare to disobey the commission's orders twice in a row!
"Master, this is different." Huang Meiwu smiled bitterly, "The Baoshan battalion disobeys the order, and would rather die in battle than retreat, so the general public can understand them and will spare no effort to support them, but if we disobey, it will be to escape, not only will the general public spurn us, but the commission will never let us go." ”
"Well, I'm going to say that." Xia Zhongyu sighed, and said with emotion, "Baoshan Camp doesn't know what to do now?" ”
Huang Meiwu said thoughtfully: "I heard that Vice President Song of the Executive Yuan has gone to the public concession to persuade the loyal brother and the Baoshan battalion to retreat, and representatives from all walks of life in Shanghai have recently issued statements to persuade the soldiers of the Baoshan battalion to retreat into the concession to save their useful bodies. ”
Xia Zhongyu frowned and said: "But at present, the public concession has become an isolated island, even if Brother Zhongshu and the Baoshan Battalion retreat into it, I am afraid that it will be difficult to return to the battle sequence of my 98th Division." ”
"Ugh." Huang Meiwu sighed, "If you retreat into the concession, you can always save your life." ”
"I hope so." Xia Zhongyu shook his head and muttered, "I hope that the loyal brother can turn evil into good fortune." ”
