Chapter 17: Fumohama

In the defensive position of Fumohama, the soldiers of the Fourth Regiment of the Tax Police Corps had already dug the defensive trenches, while the soldiers squatted in the trenches and smoked cigarettes, telling some yellow jokes, and sometimes there was a burst of laughter.

There was only a small empty area in the entire Fumohama position, and the 4th Regiment did not organize a defensive position there, as if there would be no enemy there at all.

"Tuanza, the 163rd regiment has arrived." Wu Chengsong came to the headquarters of the Fourth Regiment and reported to the regiment commander Sun Liren.

"The speed is still quite fast, let the 163rd Regiment rest in the rear first, they are not fully armed and equipped, and they should not let the soldiers make senseless sacrifices unless they have to." Sun Liren thought about it, but he was helpless, now that the army is pressing, all the defense lines are in a state of shortage of soldiers, and it is already good to be able to send him a 163 regiment.

Sun Liren was also quite satisfied with this, no matter how small the pig was, he was also a piece of meat, but Sun Liren did not want to immediately send the 163rd Regiment to the defense line, but intended to use it as a reserve.

"Tuanza, if it was before, my thoughts might be the same as Tuanza, but now, Tuanza don't dare to underestimate the 163rd regiment. I wonder if Tuanza still remembers the Chinese-German instructor Su Dao? Wu Chengsong is not in a hurry, even if Sun Liren doesn't want to use the 163rd Regiment as cannon fodder, he, Wu Chengsong, also has a way to let them be artillery.

"Remember, this person was very much approved by Colonel Wood and General Falkenhausen, and the last time he was escorting equipment, this Su Dao wanted to be able to detect potential dangers in advance, not only quietly save a German instructor, but also kill the assassin instantly. I heard that this Su Dao really wants to have a rifle that can fire continuously? I just don't know if this news is true or not. Sun Liren said with a slight smile on his face.

"Can you know where this Su Dao is now?" Wu Chengsong secretly said that there was a play, it seemed that he could send the 163rd Regiment to the front line without him secretly making the transfer of troops, of course, he just needed to move his mouth in the regiment headquarters.

"Where?" Sun Liren was stunned for a moment, and then immediately asked.

Although the German instructors were very dull most of the time, this did not prevent them from performing heroically in combat, and the idea of surprise always surprised you, and only by fighting with them could you know that the battle could still be fought like this. Now Sun Liren even has a faint idea, if he can transfer that Su Dao to the fourth regiment, even if it is at the cost of transferring the 163rd regiment, Sun Liren will have to change it.

A unit with backward equipment and uneven quality of soldiers was not as important as an experienced German officer in Sun Liren's eyes. Even the operational commander in the German army was able to perform his duties as a staff officer well at this time. It has to be said that the gap between the military education of China and Germany is vividly reflected at this moment.

"That Su Dao is in the 163rd regiment, and now he is the commander of the third battalion. Su Dao does have that kind of rifle that can be fired continuously, and he is not the only one, I estimate that Su Dao's three battalions have about three hundred, and Su Dao's three battalions also got a new type of machine gun, I heard that this kind of machine gun is not equipped much even in the German Army, what is it called MG34 general-purpose machine gun or something, a soldier can hold it and run back and forth on the battlefield, and that kind of machine gun uses a bullet chain feed, I see that they have an excuse at both ends of the bullet chain, I estimate that if there is enough ammunition chain, There is a good chance that this machine gun will continue to fire. Wu Chengsong explained in detail, and when he told him about the power of this machine gun, Wu Chengsong still didn't believe that Sun Liren would not be moved.

"Oh? So how many such machine guns do they have? Sun Liren's eyes suddenly released a fine light, if Su Dao had a large number of such machine guns in his hands, then his four regiments would be rising a step in terms of firepower, and he would be more confident in defeating his opponent in the next battle.

"It's not very clear how many humble positions there are, but I saw with my own eyes that Su Dao gave thirty of these machine guns to the other three battalions of the 163rd Regiment, and each machine gun is equipped with 10,000 rounds of ammunition as standard, so it is estimated that Su Dao's three battalions have at least thirty such machine guns." Wu Chengsong continued, the matter has come to this, even if Wu Chengsong does not make any small moves, it is estimated that Sun Liren will also pay attention to Su Dao's three battalions, Wu Chengsong thinks about the appearance of the three battalions fighting with the army on the battlefield in the future, and there is an indescribable pleasure in his heart.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's let the first battalion retreat, let Su Dao's third battalion take over the position of the first battalion, and the rest of the 163rd regiment will stand by." After a long time, Sun Liren finally made this decision.

Only by inflicting as much trauma as possible on the enemy during the first attack can it be possible to reduce the casualties of our own troops in the future. The battle of Fuzaobang must be a protracted war, a tug-of-war, which Sun Liren has long seen, before the war, Sun Liren began to ask his superiors for reinforcements, in fact, it is not that Sun Liren does not have the confidence to repel the army, but does not have the confidence to maintain victory in the tug-of-war in the future.

Fuzaobang is the top priority in the defense of the entire Luodian, located in the southeast of Luodian Town, here is the only way for the army to surround Luodian from the south to the north, if it is lost here, the tens of thousands of troops located in Luodian will fall into the point of being surrounded by the army, even if you want to withdraw, there is no way out.

It is precisely because of this that Sun Liren will ask for reinforcements before the war starts, and Fuzaobang is the closest to Wusong, and it must be the first place to encounter the Yue army, but Sun Liren has to hold on to the end, to put it mildly, even if the tax police corps loses the battle in Luodian, Sun Liren's fourth regiment must hold on until all the defenders of Luodian have retreated.

Otherwise, once the Fuzaobang defended by the Fourth Regiment retreats, or loses its position, the entire Luodian army will be completely destroyed, and even the entire army will be wiped out.

Even the 36th, 87th and 88th divisions of the tax police regiment dare not compare with them in the country, and the machine guns of the tax police regiment have been equipped with squad units, each battalion is equipped with two 60 guns, and the regiment headquarters also has seven special forces companies, according to this force to defend Fuzaobang, even Sun Liren does not know how long he will hold on.

But now that it is good, Su Dao's third battalion has taken over the defense line of the first battalion with the strongest combat effectiveness of the fourth regiment, which means that Sun Liren has one more battalion of reserve force in his hands at this time, and in the next battle, Sun Liren is more confident to hold on.

"What? Want three battalions to take over the defense line of the first battalion of the fourth regiment? Song Renyi looked at Sun Liren, the commander of the fourth regiment, in surprise in the headquarters of the 163rd regiment, this time the order was given by Sun Liren in person, one was afraid that the 163 regiment would not carry out the order, and the other was that he wanted to see in person what good things were in the third battalion of Su Dao.

"Yes, Brother Song, don't blame the old brother for being ruthless, this is all forced by me, now the whole line of Shanghai is tight, there are only two regiments of you and me in Fuzaobang, and the defense line of Fuzaobang is so long, if all the four regiments are arranged on the defense line, if there is something wrong, I can't do anything." In fact, Sun Liren's meaning is also very simple, although he doesn't want to do this, but now he has to do it.

It means that my four regiments have all been on the defensive line, and there were no reinforcements before, so I won't say anything, but now that the reinforcements are coming, what's wrong with me asking you to draw out a battalion to replace one of my battalions? Besides, your 163rd Regiment has four battalions, my Fourth Regiment has only three battalions, and my three battalions are all on the front line. Since it is a national war, the great enemy is current, and you are also a member of the party, so you can't say nothing at all.

Su Dao nodded secretly towards Song Renyi, and Song Renyi replied a little reluctantly: "Then can I send another battalion to do it?" ”

"Brother Song, at the moment of the great enemy, you and I are both members of the party, and we should sacrifice everything for the party-state." Sun Liren said with some anger, yes, Sun Liren was indeed angry, he didn't expect Song Renyi to drag his feet and didn't want to send the third battalion to the front line, and he also started a bargaining deal with him here, so he slapped the table in a fit of anger.

"Commander Sun, you know that our 163rd Regiment has always been short of clothes and ammunition, so I need a lot of mines and barbed wire." When Song Renyi was entangled, Su Dao, who had been standing silently in the back, suddenly spoke.

"Okay, the mines will be delivered to you in an hour, the barbed wire is not easy to find now, and it will take a while." Sun Liren nodded and agreed, and then Sun Liren left the 163rd Regiment Headquarters.

"Hey, Brother Su, confused, they clearly want us to pull the third battalion out and send them to death." After Sun Liren left, Song Ren was even more angry.

"It can't be said that since this is a national war, someone must always make sacrifices, and the sacrifices of the brothers of the fourth regiment are the same as the sacrifices of the brothers of our regiment. Chief Sun estimated that there was no way, so he sent our three battalions to the front line. Su Dao opened his mouth and said comfortingly.

The 163rd Regiment is such a strong combat force as the Third Battalion, if the Third Battalion is gone, the 163rd Regiment will immediately become a fart, how could Song Renyi not be in a hurry at all? However, Su Dao didn't think so, and maybe Sun Liren wouldn't have thought of how correct it was to send the third battalion to the front line.

And Su Dao's biggest concern no longer exists. The equipment of the three battalions is not suitable to be sent to the front line as a supplementary soldier, what they need is a consolidated defense line, plus the weapons in their hands, only in this way can they exert the greatest effect, but they didn't expect that Su Daogang was still thinking about how to let the three battalions go to the front line, and then Sun Liren sent the three battalions up, just to avoid Su Dao's cranky thinking.
