Chapter Twenty-Five: The Rancher's Panic!

Sunit Right Banner, located in the west of Xilin Gol League, is the west gate of Xilin Gol League, and is adjacent to Sunit Left Banner and Yellow Flag in the east. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info south of Ulanqab Chahar right wing rear banner and Shang capital city, west of Ulanqab's Siziwang banner.

In the 17th year of the Republic of China (1928), it was assigned to Chahar Province, and after the fall of the 77 Incident, it was under the jurisdiction of the puppet Mongolian government. In order to control the security and people's livelihood in this place, the puppet Mongolian army stationed a cavalry regiment for defense.

In addition, the Kwantung Army also sent a squadron of teaching troops to supervise the puppet Mongolian cavalry regiment. It can be said that it is these representatives sent by the Kwantung Army who really control the jurisdiction of the puppet Mongolian government.

After the Eighth Route Army recovered Ulanqab, a certain number of garrison troops were also deployed in the border area with it. Even though the puppet Mongolian army organized several raids, they all lost their troops and returned in vain.

In desperation, the puppet Mongolian army finally gave up the attack plan, but it was the same as the Eighth Route Army. Not far from the Eighth Route Army, fortifications were also built, and a large number of pseudo-Mongolian cavalry were dispatched to patrol, trying to curb the infiltration and sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army.

It's just that for the Eighth Route Army, after recovering Ulanqab and other places, it also takes a lot of energy to manage these places. In addition, without the permission of the superiors, the military sub-division troops stationed here will not stir up trouble at will.

In addition to sending a military team organized by elite political workers and military backbones, the garrison troops stationed in Sunit's Right Banner will also not easily cross the border. When all this became a habit, the puppet Mongolian army gradually relaxed its vigilance.

Seeing that the heavy snow closed the road, nothing unusual was found on the border line facing the Eighth Route Army. The puppet Mongolian army, which had been nervous for more than half a year, naturally breathed a rare sigh of relief and enjoyed the sense of security brought to them by winter.

After surviving a big Chinese New Year's Eve, the puppet Mongolian cavalry infantry found that the Eighth Route Army had not attacked them during the New Year. Gradually, many cavalry infantry of the puppet Mongolian army thought that the Eighth Route Army would fight and it was estimated that it would have to wait until the grass grew again.

But no one expected that before the snow on the grassland melted away, a main battalion from Daqingshan, under the response of the martial arts team, easily touched the vicinity of the Sunit Right Banner and lurked.

As for the border guards dispatched by the Suichaji Military Sub-district, there was also no change. The puppet Mongolian army, which had been staring at them, did not know that the Eighth Route Army, which had already had a main battalion, had entered their territory.

Just when the supervision team of the Kwantung Army was thinking about waiting for the snow to melt, they would organize the puppet Mongolian army to carry out a tentative attack to try what the Eighth Route Army was doing at the moment. In this way, it is also conducive to them to know the movements of the Eighth Route Army in advance.

But before their harassment troops began to deploy, He Zhengdao preemptively implemented the battle plan, completely disrupting the military deployment of the Kwantung Army and the puppet Mongolian army. Such a sudden attack undoubtedly caught the local garrison by surprise.

Also in a large mountain not far from the right banner of Sunit, a guerrilla zone was set up in the armed engineering team, and it was also very excited to see these main combat units arriving at the base area. They know that the main forces are going to do it!

While helping the main force to carry out pre-battle reconnaissance, the military engineering team was also looking forward to the day when the offensive was launched. As time passed, the members of the martial arts team seemed a little anxious, and they didn't attack for some reason.

After questioning, the commander of the main battalion who brought the troops over said in a timely manner: "Comrades, this is the first major battle of the military region this year, and the scale of this battle is only beyond your imagination.

The current pre-war reconnaissance is also so that we can end the fighting here as soon as possible, and then we will rush to other areas for reinforcements. We are close to the rear here, but some of our troops are rushing to a relatively distant place.

Like my comrades, I hope to receive the battle order from the front of the army as soon as possible. But before the order is issued, we must be patient and do our reconnaissance more rigorously. Strive to solve the Japanese puppet army here in the shortest possible time. ”

After revealing a little bit of the battle plan, the members of the martial arts team did not ask too much. It's just that they all know that once the main force recovers here, then they, the martial arts workers, may return to the main force.

For them, the military engineering team is still a little different from the main force. And if they can help the main force successfully take the right banner of Sunit this time, then when they return to the main force, their positions will be promoted accordingly.

In any case, this is also a matter of accumulating military merits. And during their time as members of the martial arts team, they have learned a lot more or less. This will also be of great help to them in returning to the main combat force in the future.

Just after the martial arts team and the main combat force found out the situation of Sunit Right Banner. The battle order that had been waiting for a long time was finally sent by the brigade headquarters of the advance brigade, and the commander of the main battalion who received the telegram was equally excited.

Summoned several company commanders and instructors under his command, as well as the guerrilla brigade captain and the martial arts captain of the Sunit Right Banner, to a meeting and said: "Comrades, the order we are waiting for has arrived. In the early hours of tomorrow morning, the reconquest of the right banner of Sunit will be officially launched. ”

After a short sentence, the captain of the martial arts and the guerrilla leader got up and said, "Battalion Commander Yang, are you going to fight?" ”

'Hmmm! I have just received a telegram from the brigade headquarters that our advance brigade will be responsible for the battle to recover the Xilin Gol League. As for the other main combat units of the military region, they will also come over one after another in the future.

This time, we want to completely eliminate the puppet Mongolian regime and sweep away the little devils here. After taking the Xilin Gol League, our troops will be able to directly target the Xing'an League area, and even directly into the Hei Province area, the rear base camp of the little devils. ’

'Good! That's great! It's finally time to reclaim the Northeast! ’

Hearing Battalion Commander Yang's words, several main company commanders who participated in the meeting were very happy. For them, advancing into the Northeast is what they are looking forward to the most, because most of them are officers and soldiers from the Northeast Army.

In the face of the excitement of these company commanders under him, Battalion Commander Yang said in a timely manner: "I know that you are looking forward to the day when you have the opportunity to fight back to the Northeast, just like me." But don't forget, it's the Kwantung Army that is stationed there.

At present, we haven't even won the Xilin Gol League, so how can we be ambitious? Don't forget the commander's earlier statement that we must fight steadily in this battle until our main forces successfully advance to the northeast.

Now is only the first step in the plan, and getting it right is also crucial for the future. Regarding the battle plan, we have discussed it many times. The rest is implementation, whoever makes a mistake, don't blame me for punishing him then! ”

Appropriately pouring some cold water on his subordinates also does not want them to be proud and complacent. This concept is also the operational concept that He Zhengdao instilled in the commanders and fighters of the troops when he inspected the troops in the early stage.

You can't think that the little devil can be easily dealt with because of previous victories. The Kwantung Army's claim to be the strongest land force in the Japanese army is not an empty phrase. Underestimating their combat effectiveness will inevitably suffer!

Only by always being vigilant against the feeling of pride and complacency can the commanders and fighters of the troops calmly command the battle. Even if you will inevitably suffer some losses, I believe that there will be no major mistakes. He Zhengdao still has confidence in his own troops.

After the combat order was issued, Battalion Commander Yang was responsible for the overall attack command. However, on the day of the attack, the Armed Forces and a reconnaissance platoon entered the Sunit Right Banner and lived in the safe spot that the Armed Engineers were looking for in the city.

It's just that compared with the cities in some inland places, the seat of the Sunit Right Banner is more than a city. In fact, only a few houses and walls were built here, but the height was not too high.

In fact, in the steppe area, it was the cavalry forces that won the final battle. At present, the main battalion that entered the right banner of Sunit was more of a cavalry unit. To be exact, an elite army that can act as both cavalry and infantry.

In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the advance brigade, He Zhengdao was also very strict in the selection of the advance brigade. Even the recruits who entered the brigade were all top recruits with excellent military skills, and after joining the advance brigade, they underwent hard training for up to half a year.

The time of the general attack was set in the early morning, but the battle did not begin in the early morning. The first target of the main battalion was a rancher not far from the Sunit Right Banner, and even a rancher who was not weak.

Looking at the hundreds of cavalry who suddenly appeared in the pasture, the armed cavalry of the ranch also panicked and said: "Quick, the cavalry of the Eighth Road!" ”

As this cavalry swept in, the armed cavalry recruited by the rancher was powerless to resist. The first reaction of the rancher who heard the news was to run away. It is a pity that this cavalry unit has completed the outflanking.

'Coming, Breakout!' Send someone to ask for reinforcements from the troops in the city! ’

Several ranchers' henchmen quickly broke through. In the face of these armed cavalry that broke through, the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army that attacked the ranch only let go of one cavalry who reported the news, and the rest of the cavalry were all annihilated.

When the encirclement slowly tightened, a member of the military engineer team soon appeared on the periphery of the defensive circle established by the rancher to persuade him to surrender. Knowing that these people were really the cavalry of the Eighth Road, the rancher also seemed a little anxious.

'What to do?' What to do? Can we hold on? ’

Facing the captain of the armed cavalry, the rancher asked a little nervously. Even if they had fought against the Warriors before, but they had never encountered such a large number of cavalry, it was no wonder that the rancher seemed panicked.

'Master, I'm afraid I can't hold it! You see, those cavalry should be elite. But how did they get here? You know, this place is not far from the General Banner Office! ’

The armed captain, who was also full of confusion, also knew that once he and the rancher fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, there would be no good fruit to eat. After all, they are all the exploiting class that the Eighth Route Army said!

'Are we going to come down?' ’

Knowing that the Eighth Route Army would be appropriately lenient for those who surrendered, these ranchers who enjoyed the shadow of their ancestors first thought of not fighting but surviving. After all, you can only enjoy everything if you are alive, and if you don't even have your life, you really have nothing! (To be continued.) )
