Chapter 612: Bloody Battle of Taierzhuang (29)

"Eat, eat, today I made your favorite pancakes, braised pork......"

The cooking squad leader jumped his burden and walked up to the devastated position, shouting as he walked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

No one promised him!

There was silence on the position, at noon, there was no sound at all, and there was lifelessness around, this was the position, a few minutes ago, the Japanese army had just retreated in disarray!

Finally, there was a gap time, and the cooking team hurriedly brought lunch over.

"What about people, ...... are you out for dinner?"

One, two, seven or eight sounds, but still no one answered, Squad Leader Cui collapsed, the burden on his shoulders slipped down, the fragrant braised pork spilled out, and the thick soup was poured on the masonry and rubble of the position, steaming.

"Squad leader, squad leader......"

A subtle voice came from not far away, like a lost soul Squad Leader Cui wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and looked for it in the direction of the sound.

The sound came from under a pile of rubble, Squad Leader Cui moved the messy stone above with his hands, and a soldier was buried underneath, the blood at the corner of his mouth had coagulated, his breath was still a little weak, and his eyes were closed.

"Brother, wait a minute, I'll call the stretcher team to come ......"

"No need squad leader, you can serve me a bowl of braised pork, I want to eat braised pork......" The soldier said with difficulty word by word.

"Okay, okay, I'll serve you meat, you wait, I'll come right away." Squad leader Cui ran back quickly, fortunately, although he sprinkled it, most of the braised pork was fine, took a bowl, filled it with a spoon, and took a pair of chopsticks.

"Brother, brother, braised pork is here."

The soldier buried under the masonry was no longer breathing, and Squad Leader Cui was crying, and he wanted to eat a mouthful of braised pork before he died, but he couldn't eat it, which couldn't make people heartbroken.

"Brother, I know you want to eat something good before the temporary, to be a full ghost, my brother can't stand you, I can't fulfill your last wish, every year on this day in the future, as long as I live, I will make you braised pork!" Squad Leader Cui reached over and put the sacrificial soldier on his chest. The front plate is torn off.

At the very least, he can still keep his name.

Too young, only eighteen years old, probably not married yet, not even a posterity.

The stretcher team and the corpse collection team came up together, and they worked hard to find the survivors, and carried down the bodies of the fallen comrades for collective burial.

Some have been changed beyond recognition, while others can no longer be found.

Squad leader Cui picked this list and continued to step forward, the position was finally not dead, but it was almost over, the living people were down, and a new wave of new troops came up.

They had only gone down and rested for a few hours.

The battle has not stopped, the Japanese death squads have come up again, and they will really pick this time, the officers and soldiers have already reported the belief that they will die.

If you can still rush to the position at this time, you must not have thought about it or come back!

For those who sacrificed, as long as they left a clear place of origin and address, their families could receive a pension of 300 oceans, which was the standard of the 1st Division of Honor, and also the standard of the new 38th Brigade.

You must know that in the past few years, a captain and company commander died on the battlefield, and it was only a pension of 300 yuan, and the ordinary soldiers of the new 38th Brigade were 300.

This is not available in China, and the bonuses awarded by the government to the new 38 Brigade are not enough.

This is just the new 38 Brigade's own pension, not counting the state.

Therefore, whether it is for money or for the sake of the national righteousness, no one in the new 38th Brigade flinched, risking their lives to fight with the little devils.

Since the beginning of the war, more than 20 officers at the company level of the new 38 brigade and battalion have been sacrificed, not to mention the squad and platoon, Xie Bin, deputy of the third regiment, Zhu Yaming, the commander of the second regiment, was seriously injured, the commander of the cavalry battalion, the artillery battalion, the staff officer of the brigade headquarters, the communications company, and the automobile company......

Which unit did not suffer casualties? Even the cooking class sacrificed three people.

Wu Youyuan, the head of the first regiment, has not closed his eyes much since the beginning of the war, and the whole person has lost ten pounds, his eye sockets are deep, and his beard is la, and he is not as heroic and upright as before.

Boil!

Every second, every minute, every moment, every hour is boiled and boiled out.

"We can't fight like this, and if we continue to fight like this, all the little money we have saved will be lost!" Deputy Brigade Commander Niu Xianmin was heartbroken.

"Lao Luo, what do you mean by Shizuo, did you call back?"

"Not yet, I guess I'm still thinking about it, this matter is not so easy to decide, even if he agrees with us to do it, it needs Chief Li's cooperation."

"Isn't the 60th Army already in Xuzhou and is spreading eastward along the canal line, what are the arrangements of the theater commander's department?" Niu Xianmin didn't remember asking.

"The Japanese Sato detachment has landed from Nantong and is already approaching Yancheng, and we are facing a huge threat to our backs, and I think Chief Li urgently needs a unit that can protect my flank and rear now." Luo Yufeng said.

"Isn't there Han Deqin's 24th Army?"

"If it works, it won't let the Japanese army approach Yancheng, but if the Japanese army wants to go north, it's not so easy, the transportation in northern Jiangsu is inconvenient, which is an obstacle for the mechanized Japanese army, even if they go all the way, how can they walk for three or five days to arrive."

"Why don't we contact the 60th Army and see what they mean?"

"We are not familiar with others, how to contact, just come to the door to talk about cooperation, do you believe it, we are wearing the skin of the ZY army, and people are very wary." Luo Yufeng glanced at the staff officer who spoke.

"Brigade, division, telegraph."

"Division, let's first propose a counterattack plan, and then hand it over to the Commander's Department of the Fifth Theater."

"What does he mean by this, Old Qin?"

"It's not good for the division to directly propose a counterattack plan, after all, he did not participate in the command of the Taierzhuang Campaign, if he comes to mention it, Chief Li may agree, maybe he feels that the division seat is suspected of interfering with his command, and, if we mention it, it is best not to be alone, pull the second group army up, so that it does not appear that we are too sharp."

"Well, that's right, then draft a telegram immediately, discuss it with Hanjiasi, and see if it should be signed jointly or sent to the headquarters of the commander of the theater of operations." Luo Yufeng said.

The days of suffering are over!

Luo Yufeng took the guard platoon to the position to inspect the position, and the front-line commander must keenly grasp all possible changes and movements of the enemy.

On May 2, the battle for Taierzhuang had been going on for the ninth day, and both the Seya Detachment and the New 38th Brigade had reached a limit in strength and physical strength.

Segu Kai found that it was too difficult to break through Taierzhuang head-on, and tried to use roundabout tactics to detour from Liujiahu to Chahe Town, and then capture Yuwang Mountain, condescending to threaten Taierzhuang.

It was Huang Daoli's 27th Division stationed in Chahe Town and Yuwang Mountain, and the Japanese army fought a bloody battle with the 27th Division in the Chahe area, and the 27th Division paid a great price to hold the front.

Kai Seya's change of tactics also shows that he is now unable to capture Taierzhuang, and can only seek a breakthrough from elsewhere.

Luo Yufeng was also able to relax a little in Taierzhuang and accumulate strength for the counterattack.

As for the counteroffensive plan put forward by the new 38 Brigade, Sun Fanglu and other senior generals of the Second Group Army agreed to it, and they have been fighting side by side with the new 38 Brigade these days, and they are very clear about the combat effectiveness of the new 38 Brigade as Luo Yufeng's person.

"Tang" Keqin was grinding in the calf mountain, and he didn't go south for a long time, and if there was no support on their side, no one knew how long they could last.

Although the new 38th Brigade was under most of the pressure, the Second Army, which could respond, also suffered a heavy blow from the Japanese army.

Luo Yufeng and Sun Fanglu exchanged opinions on the phone, believing that although the Japanese army still maintained an offensive posture, it was actually weak, and in the absence of reinforcements, such an offensive was bound to not last too long, and on the Xuzhou side, with the addition of 40,000 fresh troops, they could launch a counteroffensive without waiting for the "Tang" army.

This counterattack plan was also supported by Liu Weizhang, director of the War Department of the Military Command Department, who was patrolling the front.

As a result, a signed telegram was placed in front of Li Delin and the leaders of the Fifth War Zone.

"It seems that we are worried in vain, they have already intended it!"

"Brother Zhang should also participate in the formulation of the counteroffensive plan, this plan has his traces in it!" Bai Jiansheng looked at it and said.

"Tang Keqin's side...... "Li Delin is the commander of the theater of operations, and he is now Tang's top boss now, Tang can disown him as a boss, but he can't lose his demeanor and bearing.

"Just notify him before you complete the deployment." Bai Jiansheng didn't have the slightest affection for Tang, this person was too conceited and arrogant, and he really didn't like it.

"Then inform Commander Lu, let's go to Sun Fanglu's side together!" Li Delin decided that the counteroffensive plan must be planned, and it is not possible to sit in the headquarters and talk about troops on paper, so he has to go to the front line.

Although it is not necessary to move all the headquarters, the necessary personnel and institutions must be followed.

"Yes!"

"Sir Li, a secret telegram was sent on the third day, and the second phase of the 'April Fool's Day' plan has been launched!" Huang Xuecun knocked on the door and came in, saluted a military salute, and reported.

"With that said, Three is ready to step up from behind the scenes." Li Delin was not surprised, this side is about to carry out a counteroffensive, it is impossible for Leng Feng not to know, Luo Yufeng and Sun Fanglu's advice must have communicated with Leng Feng in advance.

"It should be, the plan for their attack will be sent in a moment."

"Okay, then we'll wait a little longer, and then we'll go after reading the attack plan of the three!" Li Delin nodded, at this time Leng Feng decided to act, the timing was very good, if the two sides cooperated, maybe they could completely stun the Japanese army.

For this plan, how much manpower and effort did Leng Feng and the Fifth War Zone and Wuhan expend, if they could not achieve the expected results, he Li Delin would not be willing.

According to the division of labor, the implementation of the second phase is commanded by Leng Feng, but it needs to be reported to Li Delin and the Wuhan side, and it is not necessary to obtain consent, but it is necessary to say hello in advance.

This is Lao Chiang's bottom line, he can't fight in front of him, but he, the chairman of the military committee, doesn't know anything, isn't that a joke?

The plan was originally drawn up by Leng Feng, and there were many discussions about the second phase of the strike plan at that time, but in the end, there was no conclusion on which set to use.

About ten minutes later, Wei Zhiming, the confidential secretary, came in and delivered a complete attack plan to Li Delin.

The plan is very detailed, but it should be a preliminary plan, Li Delin knew at a glance that Leng Feng's ambitions would never go to Jining and Yanzhou, did he want to directly attack Jinan, the capital of Shandong?

He shouldn't be so reckless, Jinan stationed a brigade of the Japanese army, even if the honor of the first division is strong, with a division to attack a brigade to defend the town, or in the hinterland occupied by the Japanese army, this is like an act of death.

"Jiansheng, what do you think?"

"I don't think the target of No. 3 should be Jinan, although he is young and vigorous, he knows how to measure proportions, and he will not use the team he has finally pulled up to fight against the Japanese and fight for a false name, but his move has a very clear purpose, that is, the 10th Division of the Japanese Army!" Bai Jiansheng said, "The capture of Jining and Yanzhou is equivalent to closing the door of the 10th Division's northward retreat, since the Japanese army invaded China, I have not heard that the Japanese division has been annihilated, whether it is the 16th Division or the 13th Division, they were all defeated in the hands of Leng Feng, but they all escaped and were rebuilt immediately after returning home." ”

"Annihilation of the 10th Division!" Li Delin's eyes lit up, how tempting this was. The human record, once this plan is completed, can definitely deal a heavy blow to the Japanese army.

"It's not just the 10th Division,......" Bai Jiansheng smiled meaningfully.

Yes, there are also a large number of field artillery units attached to the 10th Division, as well as boatbridge, baggage and chariot units, and the Japanese troops under the command of the 10th Division (including local garrisons and baggage logistics personnel) are at least 50,000 people!

What is the concept of eating 50,000 Japanese soldiers in one go?

How many troops were there in total in the Second Army of the Japanese Army in North China?

The total number of combat troops, including local garrisons and logistical personnel, is estimated to be about 100,000.

The Second Army of the North China Front of the Japanese Army has a total of three divisions and regiments, the 10th, 16th and 108th Divisions, plus a field heavy artillery Sixth Brigade, the 16th Division is still being rebuilt on the mainland, and there is no chance to return to it for the time being, so the Second Army is only about 70,000 or 80,000 people when it is fully armed, and the Fifth Division is directly under the jurisdiction of the Front Army and is not under the command of the Second Army.

Eat the 10th Division, and the Japanese army in Shandong will be crippled.

As a result, the situation of the war took a sharp turn for the worse, unless the Japanese army talked about increasing troops in a short period of time, otherwise, in the Lunan battlefield and even the entire Shandong battlefield, GJ will have a local advantage in the battle situation.

In this way, not only can Xuzhou be held for a few more months, but it can also make it clear to the international community that China's determination to resist the war is strength, and the potential benefits and impact brought by that are immeasurable.

This is not only a military victory, but also a political benefit, no wonder Lao Chiang will support this plan at all costs, and now this plan has touched the dawn of success!

As for the "Tang" commander, I'm afraid he is still in the dark, cautiously playing his little abacus.
