Chapter 179: Three Battles in One Day 1

(Today's two more, ask for collection, ask for recommendation)

November 26.

During this return voyage, Li Guang moved his mind a little. The fleet sailed out of the Gulf of Aden, not returning directly, but sailing along the coasts of Yemen and Oman in the Middle East, towards the Persian Gulf, preparing to reach the Persian Gulf and then go south along the Indian subcontinent and then back to Ceylon.

Such a voyage is a long detour for the fleet. Originally, this was just Li Guang's whim, or subconsciously wanted to explore the Persian Gulf, which is known as the world's oil depot. Anyway, the fuel was supplied by the British, and the Maritime Resistance Army was not distressed.

Who knows, it was such a coincidence, the fleet had just arrived at the exit of the Persian Gulf and encountered three oil tankers, and Li Guang was a policeman. Addicted, so he surrounded the check.

To Li Guang's delight, the three tankers were Japanese. Needless to say, the three oil tankers immediately became the private property of the Maritime Resistance Army.

Li Guang originally felt that the Naval Resistance Army only had two oil tankers, and it was difficult to even meet normal training, let alone reserves. He had planned to find a time to grab Japan and build a few oil tankers, but it was a surprise that the little devil inadvertently delivered them to his door. However, the displacement of these three oil tankers is too small, with a total of only 10,000 tons, which is a fly in the ointment.

Soon, these three oil tankers became supply ships for the Maritime Resistance Army, and began to transport fuel from the Middle East to Tang Port for storage day and night. As for the dozens of Japanese crew members on the tanker, Li Guang was resettled in a local area, and Yuan Chou had recently transported a batch of uranium ore there, and he was short of manpower. As we all know, uranium ore can be radiated, and it is most suitable for the Japanese to do this.

Li Guang was very happy, but it was definitely a bad day for the Japanese.

The robbery of three Japanese oil tankers by the surface flotilla of the Naval Resistance Army was a trivial matter on 26 November.

You must know that there has been no attack on Japanese merchant ships for almost a year, and the submarine units of the Maritime Resistance Army have already been in a hurry to burst into flames, and they will definitely not rest.

In fact, the Second Submarine Brigade of the Maritime Resistance Force has not been idle since it arrived in Ceylon.

The second submarine team has one Pixiu-3 supply submarine and three 600-ton submarines. The captain is Ren Tianyang, and the vice captain is Quan Yonghai.

They arrived at Tang Port together with the Naval Resistance Brigade, and out of secrecy, they did not anchor at Tang Port until the special wharf was built. But Li Guang will definitely not let these four submarines idle, they have combat missions.

The second submarine squadron was quiet for a month, which was dictated by the nature of their tasks.

The Army of the Maritime Resistance Army arrived at the Tang Port of Ceylon with a total of five battalions.

Among them, the jungle battalion is not only lacking, but also the battalion commander is not yet there, and Su Qing is still fighting guerrillas on Hainan Island. The task of the No. 2 Submarine Brigade was to bring back veterans of the Hainan guerrillas.

Originally, Li Guang's arrangement was very simple, the submarine took Su Qing and about 40 veterans from Hainan Island, and this jungle battalion could be on the right track. Su Qing's deputy in the Hainan guerrilla force, Pang Biao, was promoted to captain, promoted to captain, and continued to lead the guerrillas in guerrilla warfare against the Japanese army.

This seems to be a very thoughtful arrangement.

However, the actual situation is very different from the projections. Of the more than 60 soldiers who arrived on Hainan Island, there were more than 40 in addition to the more than 10 who were killed in battle. But the problem now is that these more than 40 people actually have wives, and even Li Guang's eldest brother, Comrade Su Qing, has married a pair of sisters.

Originally, this was nothing, although the submarine was small, it was not a problem for three submarines to transport one hundred and eighty people. The problem, however, is that the Hainan guerrillas now have more than 300 regular soldiers and more than 300 supplementary soldiers, while the number of soldiers killed in the Hainan guerrillas has reached more than 500 since its establishment.

In light of the actual situation on Hainan Island, Su Qing believed that a small group of troops would be more effective in combat, and that it would be difficult for a large force to survive in the encirclement of the Japanese army. In fact, when the guerrillas were small in 39, the quality of the fighters was also high, the operation was quite smooth, and the casualties were small. However, in the 40s, the size of the army was large, and in the most recent battle, it had to fight hard with the Japanese army, and although the results were good, it was also a heavy loss. As a result, the troops, which had grown to more than 1,000 men, were reduced to less than 600.

Later, Su Qing learned that the reason for the loss was that his opponent had been replaced.

Originally, after the Japanese army occupied Hainan Island, they were bent on building Hainan Island into a control like the Northeast. However, the Northeast belongs to the Japanese Kwantung Army, and Hainan Island belongs to the Japanese Navy. For a long time, Su Qing was fighting against the Japanese marines. On Hainan Island, the Japanese general was Rear Admiral Ryozo Fukuda. This thing is purely a navy, and it will not fight on land at all, and it has a strong force that is helpless against Su Qing's guerrillas, and it has suffered defeats in a row.

But in the second half of the 40s, Su Qing's guerrillas encountered a strong opponent. One of Japan's most famous Showa three staff officers, Masanobu Miri.

This Qian Zhengxin Dazuo, here I have to mention the madness of this guy, there is his black hand behind the Lugou Bridge 77 incident, and the conflict between the Japanese army and the Soviet army in Nomenkan was also provoked by him. But this person can be called one of the three Showa staff officers in later generations, and he is even more known as a jackal staff officer, which is not crazy to describe (this guy is famous for his tactics among the three Showa staff officers.) The other two, Ishihara Wanji is known for his strategy and Ryuzo Seshima is known for his political acumen).

This guy originally went to Hainan to formulate a battle plan for the Japanese army to capture Singapore. Historically, little Japan did not begin to occupy Singapore until after Pearl Harbor, but in the 40s, the Japanese General Staff Headquarters had already begun to formulate plans to capture Singapore. The Japanese devils were very ambitious, and they had just occupied the northern part of Indochina, which was aimed at Singapore.

If you want to say that there are many contradictions between Qian Zhengxin as a staff officer of the Japanese Army and the Japanese Navy, the reason why he helped the Japanese Navy General Ryosanchi Fukuda. It's definitely not for any reason to want to have a good relationship between the two sides. The reason is ridiculous, Fukuda Ryozo's hospitality to Masanobu is just according to the standard meals of the normal Japanese Navy Nakasa.

This time, Qian Zhengxin cried gratefully: "Your Excellency Futian, you are so good, you actually have fish for dinner." ”

You must know that the food treatment of the Japanese Navy is learned from the British, and it is very different from the food of the Japanese Army, and the Army can only eat fish during the New Year.

In this way, in order to repay Ryozo Fukuda, Qian Masanobu decided to help Fukuda - he really couldn't stand it, the invincible Japanese Army, and the Japanese Marine Corps, which became garbage in the hands of the Navy.

As a result, the plan set by Qian Zhengxin was really vicious, and his ruthlessness was not only aimed at the opponent, but even the Japanese marines were put in the position of bait. He used the Shiroku iron ore as bait and deliberately sent only one squadron of troops there. And Su Qing didn't know what to do, seeing that the Japanese army was weak, he could take advantage of it. So he really attacked the Shiroku Iron Mine, and after a hard day, he wiped out all the strength of a Japanese squadron, but the guerrillas also fell into the encirclement of the Japanese army.

Su Qing has not been surrounded, Hainan Island has complex terrain and dense mountains and forests, so you can get out of it if you find a loophole.

But this time is different, the arrangement of the relocation letter is like a net. To put it simply, it is to overwhelm people with force, relying on absolute superiority of troops, and setting up multiple encirclements in the mountains and forests. In a few days of fighting, the Japanese army fought steadily step by step, and the encirclement was rapidly reduced, and Su Qing lost his troops as a result.

In the end, because the combat effectiveness of the Japanese marines was not successful, and with the help of a "friendly army", the guerrillas were desperate to open a hole and finally get out.

The defeat was so miserable that nearly half of the casualties were lost. There was also a small factor in this, for almost a year Su Qing's guerrillas were not replenished with supplies and ammunition.

After careful consideration, Su Qing believed that maintaining the size of a company for the guerrillas was the most suitable for replenishing supplies, and it was also conducive to the troops fighting the Japanese army in the mountains and jungles.

In this way, there were about 500 soldiers who retreated, and more than 1,000 people were also in the military martyrs' families. The evacuation of more than 1,500 people was absolutely not easy, and it took nearly a month for the three submarines to complete the evacuation operations one after another.

The retreat was so smooth, thanks to Su Qing's mass line, the information about the Japanese army was very detailed, and the Japanese army was almost unaware of the entire retreat.

Su Qing's withdrawal made the jungle battalion of the Naval Resistance Army immediately full, and it only took a few months of running-in to become an elite division with rich combat experience.

The equipment of the jungle battalion and the field battalion is different, and there are two main features:

The jungle battalion did not have barreled artillery, but only small-caliber mortars as supporting fire. The proportion of heavy machine guns was also not as high as that of field battalions. The mortars of the jungle battalion are more distinctive, and the naval resistance army has been modified, the barrel is truncated, the base is lightened, and the firing range is compressed, which is very suitable for jungle operations. But the light firepower of the jungle battalion was very strong.

Li Guang obtained more than 2,000 French-made submachine guns in Dunkirk, and except for a few dozen equipped by the special squad, all the others were handed over to the jungle battalion.

On 20 November, four combat companies and one heavy engineer company (pack horse) of the jungle battalion were formally formed. In the establishment of the Naval Resistance Army, it is called the second battalion.

Ren Tianyang, who completed the task easily, can finally let go and do a great job, and the day he chose happened to be November 26.
