Chapter 258: Three days of training
…………
Shimen, Baoshan Division.
Early the next morning, Tang Dashan entered Yue Weihan's office in a hurry, and said mysteriously: "Junzao, I got some good things, don't you go and take a look?" ”
Yue Weihan said: "Have you collected enough batteries and wires? ”
"Enough, enough." Tang Dashan hurriedly said, "It's more than enough to fire 50 million shells." ”
"Okay." Yue Weihan nodded immediately, "Then let's go, I want to see what good things you have made." ”
Tang Dashan scratched his head embarrassedly, and led the way in front of him at the moment, and hit the lintel when he went out, no way, this guy is more than two meters tall, and no matter how high the lintel is, it is not easy to make it.
Soon, Tang Dashan took Yue Weihan into a compound near the division headquarters.
This compound was originally the mansion of Ma Heyan, the president of the pseudo-Shimen Chamber of Commerce, and this dog Han Jian was blown up at Zhengding Railway Station along with Sasaki and others, and all assets were confiscated along with this compound.
Turning the shadow wall is the patio, in which more than a dozen diesel barrels have been placed.
Yue Weihan took two steps forward and glanced at two of the diesel barrels, and was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, thinking that the wisdom of the masses is really endless, and such an "ingenious" weapon of mass destruction can actually be imagined, this is simply a sharp weapon used to kill and injure devil soldiers on a large scale!
There are explosives in every diesel barrel, and there are hundreds of catties to say the least!
You must know that this is not a state-made earth explosive, but a high-explosive produced by the military factory, and detonating a diesel drum here is enough to raze this compound to the ground!
What's even worse is that Tang Dashan's kid is still filling the diesel barrel with a large number of broken glass, broken porcelain and rotten nails and other fragments, once detonated, the flying fragments will form a radius of more than 50 meters, and the target within a radius of 10 meters will be directly torn apart by the air wave generated by the explosion, this thing is simply a super bomb!
Tang Dashan patted the oil drum, and said with a hideous face: "Military seat, bury these dozen oil drums on the road, and wait for the little devil's marching column to pass over it, hehe, each oil drum can kill it a squadron at least!" ”
Tang Dashan's words were not blown, just calculated according to the killing radius of 50 meters, if the marching formation of the army was a four-way column, a distance of 100 meters would be enough to stand nearly 400 people! Of course, it is estimated that there will not be too many people killed directly by the explosion, but more than half of them will be killed by fragments, that is, two hundred people!
Compared with direct death, injuries can obviously weaken the combat effectiveness of the army.
The reason is very simple, if a soldier is killed, it will be over if he is buried, but if he is injured, it will be troublesome, and if the injury is not very serious, you have to leave a soldier to take care of him; If the injuries are more serious, then two devil soldiers need to carry them away on stretchers, and they can't be halfway and wait for the Chinese people to kill them with hoes, right?
"Good guys!" Yue Weihan said happily, "Datang, can you make a few more of this thing?" ”
"No problem." Tang Dashan said without thinking, "In the special train intercepted the night before yesterday, there was enough high-explosive in a wagon, not to mention thirty or forty tons!" Not to mention that you can make six or seven hundred of these land mines, even if you can't find so many oil drums, and there are broken glass, broken porcelain, rotten iron nails, etc., you can't get so many in a hurry. ”
"Datang, try your best to make up!" Yue Weihan said, "At least a hundred more will be made!" ”
At this moment, even Yue Weihan could not continue to be calm, if such 100 "super bombs" were planted on a two-kilometer-long road, and then 2,000 "direct fire" shells were placed on both sides of the road, and then suddenly detonated when the marching column of the 20th Division of the Chinese Army passed by, what would be the result?
The result is obvious, the forward brigade of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army will be destroyed by the surname!
Suddenly, a preliminary plan for severely attacking the 20th Division in one fell swoop appeared in Yue Weihan's mind.
The 20th Division, as one of the 17 permanent divisions of the army, has strong strength, according to the information obtained by the intelligence department, the 20th Division has more than 36,000 people, and the strength is almost not under the Baoshan Division!
Of course, not all of these 36,000 people are infantry, and even if they are, their combat effectiveness is uneven.
Among them, the 39th Infantry Brigade and the 40th Infantry Brigade are its core combat strength, each with more than 7,000 infantry, and the more than 14,000 infantry are all well-trained and experienced veterans.
In addition, there are about 960 cavalry wings directly under the division and about 4,000 people in the field artillery wing directly under the division.
There are about 7,000 non-combatants in the engineer wing, baggage wing, and field yard directly under the division and regiment.
Then there is the supplementary corps that acts with the division and regimental headquarters, with about 10,000 reserve soldiers, but most of the soldiers in the supplementary corps are long-retired soldiers in the township, or they are older, or they are alcoholic, or they have an affair with the underworld, and their combat effectiveness is much worse than that of the active soldiers of the two major infantry brigades.
Speaking of marching, it is impossible for such a large division as the 20th Division to rush forward.
If nothing else, the 20th Division will definitely adopt a three-stage marching column, with an infantry brigade as the vanguard, and an infantry brigade after the break, and the division and regiment headquarters leading the directly subordinate wings and supplementary corps in the center.
Therefore, if you want to annihilate a division of the Yue Army into a formation through an ambush, it is simply wishful thinking!
Yue Weihan only wanted to inflict heavy damage on the 20th Division of the Yue Army, not to annihilate it completely, because he knew that it was absolutely impossible.
Just as Yue Weihan was refining his idea in his mind, Chief of Staff Liu Yi hurriedly walked in from outside the door, strode to Yue Weihan and then stood upright, and said solemnly: "Military seat, the army has been reorganized!" ”
"Oh, the reorganization is done?" Yue Weihan was slightly surprised, the time was half a day earlier than he expected.
Among the three brigade commanders under the Baoshan Division, Cao Xinglong's temper is the best, and he probably won't worry about the other two brigade commanders, but Chi Chengfeng and Li Yulong are very clear about what their surnames are Yue Weihan.
Liu Yi nodded, and said, "Military seat, isn't this going to be pulled?" ”
"Nope." Yue Weihan waved his hand and said, "Order all brigades and regiments to train on the spot for three days!" ”
The reorganization of the unit has just been completed, and the soldiers do not know the generals, and the generals do not know the soldiers, and such a unit will suffer a loss, and the Baoshan Division has just won two great victories, and it is necessary to strengthen exchanges between recruits and veterans through retraining in order to rapidly improve the combat effectiveness of the whole division.
"Three days of training?" Liu Yi frowned, and said worriedly, "Junzuo, to put it mildly, I'm worried that the Eighth Route Army won't be able to hold off the two routes for too long, in case after three days, the troops have finally finished training, but the army has also been killed under Shimen City, so how can it be good?" ”
"Chief of Staff, you're overthinking." Yue Weihan patted Liu Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile, "The Eighth Route Army is not easy to mess with, if the little devil wants to quickly pass through their defense area, it is a fantasy!" ”
Liu Yi said awe-inspiringly: "Junzao, do you really have confidence in the Eighth Route Army?" ”
"Of course." Yue Weihan said without thinking, "Fighting positional warfare or attacking fortified positions, the Eighth Route Army is indeed not very good at it, but when it comes to guerrilla warfare and sabotage warfare, the Eighth Route Army is definitely an expert, in this regard, there is really no army in the world that can be compared with them, and it is not easy for the little devil to crack the kraft candy tactics of the Eighth Route Army." ”
After saying this, Yue Weihan said to Tang Dashan again: "Datang, I'll give you two days, and within two days, you must give me a hundred of these things." ”
"Yes." Tang Dashan stood upright and said loudly, "Guarantee to complete the task." ”
Yue Weihan nodded, then turned to Liu Yi and said, "Chief of Staff, let's go to Niangzi Pass, really survey the terrain, I already have a preliminary idea, we will discuss it on the way." ”
Liu Yi nodded, and immediately followed Yue Weihan out of the courtyard.
…………
At the foot of Taihang Mountain, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.
In the war room, several combat staff officers were whispering around the map, working on the map.
"Hey, haven't you heard, the Baoshan Division still has to train for three days, which is good, this battle was provoked by them, but now it has become a matter of our Eighth Route Army, the three divisions of the little devil are 70,000 or 80,000 people, all thanks to us!"
"Yue Weihan, this kid is really excessive, but so is the boss, why are you wading into this troubled water?"
"It's true, whether we win or lose, we can't get good, this is purely a money-losing deal."
"Say what? What a money-losing deal!? At the door of the war room, Mr. Peng's thunderous voice suddenly sounded.
Several operational staff officers were suddenly silenced, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, so Mr. Peng walked into the war room with his hands behind his back, and then snorted again, and said: "You all listen to me, our Eighth Route Army is not fighting devils for Chairman Jiang, not for the Kuomintang, not for Yue Weihan and Baoshan Division, but for the common people!" ”
The chief of staff of Zuo, who had just come out of the telecommunications room next door, hurriedly said: "Boss, don't be like a few of them, I have good news to tell you, the Yellow River Bridge of the Pinghan Railway was accidentally blown up by the railway guerrillas of the Southern Hebei Military Region, and the 6th and 13th Divisions of the Army had to go north on foot, hehe." ”
"Oh?" When Mr. Peng heard this, he suddenly perked up and said, "It seems that there is no big problem in southern Hebei!" ”
After saying this, Mr. Peng's face suddenly became solemn again, and he said: "But I'm afraid there is some trouble on the side of the 129th Division." ”
