Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 238

Huang Baitao and Xu Shijiu reached an agreement on the material distribution plan, and the battle order was quickly conveyed.

On the side of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in southern Anhui, Xu Shijiu handed over the heavy responsibility of the main attack to Li Zihan's L Regiment, and at the same time temporarily assigned the cavalry battalion to the L Regiment to strengthen the mobility of the L Regiment.

As soon as he received the task, Li Zihan convened a meeting of all officers above the company level in the regiment.

At the meeting, Li Zihan said: "The commander handed over this task to our L regiment, that is his trust in our L regiment, that is the honor of all the brothers in our L regiment, I will not say too much other nonsense, I just say one sentence, as soon as the signal flare is lifted into the air, the whole regiment brothers have to give me bayonets, charge with me, do not defeat the small Japan on the other side, and I am not allowed to eat tonight."

Speaking of zuihou, Li Zihan shouted viciously and asked, "Did you fucking hear clearly?" ”

"Hear clearly" more than a dozen battalion and company commanders responded violently, all of them showing wolf-like expressions.

The army is like this, people gather like like, things are divided into groups, and what kind of commander there will be what kind of soldier.

"Alright, let's all go back." With a wave of Li Zihan's hand, more than a dozen battalion and company commanders dispersed in a bang, and each returned to the temporary station of his unit and began to prepare for a surprise attack.

As soon as Sun Laobao returned to the sortie position of L Company, he called more than a dozen company commanders, company deputies, platoon commanders, and platoon deputies under his command to him, and began the first Zuihou mobilization.

In other words, where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there will be disputes.

As an army, the 19th detachment is of course competing everywhere, at the detachment level, the 19th detachment competes with the southern Anhui detachment, below the detachment level, the regiments compete with each other, within the regiments, the battalions and companies are also constantly showing signs of each other, as a man, no one wants to lose to others, they all want to suppress others.

Sun Laobao, as a newcomer who surrendered from the 1st Army, was very trusted by Li Zihan and He Changzhu, and was appointed as the commander of the 1st Company of the L Regiment, which inevitably attracted the criticism of those old people, especially the company with the best combat effectiveness in the L Regiment and the company commander of the 9th Company.

Especially yesterday's fight against Tongling County, Sun Laobao's L company did not fight any hard battles, on the contrary, the company was the first to break through the city wall fortifications, and the 9th company was the first unit to break through the headquarters of the gendarmerie, so Sun Laobao saw the company commander and the 9th company commander and couldn't raise his head.

Losers can't lose, and L Lian is by no means worse than others.

Sun Laobao gritted his teeth and roared: "The eight calves of the company and the 9th company usually laugh at us, saying that we can't fight, and today we will fucking cheer up Lao Tzu and tell them with the bayonets in our hands, damn it, we are the L company of the L regiment, and we are the fists of the L regiment."

More than a dozen company commanders, company deputies, platoon commanders, and platoon deputies of L Company are usually not less angry with the brothers, and at this time they all clenched their fists, yesterday they fought Tongling County, they did not perform well, and were pressed by the company and the 9th company, and today they have to get the field back anyway, otherwise, how can they hold their heads up in the future?

Men walk the world with three feet, isn't it just a face?

Sun Laobao stared murderously at more than a dozen officers, and asked sharply, "Did you hear them all clearly?" ”

"Hear me clearly" more than a dozen officers responded loudly, all of them looking imposing.

"Okay, hurry back and convey the order to all individual soldiers" Sun Laobao waved his hand, and more than a dozen officers left one after another.

In less than a moment, the order for the general attack of the whole regiment had been issued to every individual soldier, and when Sun Laobao entered the sortie position with more than 150 brothers of the whole company, the company and the 9th company had already entered the sortie position, and when they saw Sun Laobao coming, the company commander and the 9th company commander half sat up and raised their fists demonstratively to Sun Laobao.

Sun Laobao sighed disdainfully, thinking, what kind of spirit is his mother? Isn't it just fighting Tongling County and making some insignificant achievements? If it hadn't been for the camp at that time, this credit would have been the turn of you two little rabbit cubs? Today, Lao Tzu will let you see what the real charge is

After entering the sortie position, Sun Laobao was in the mood to observe the surrounding terrain.

The sortie position of the L Regiment was selected on the left flank of the entire battle line, hidden in a small forest on the sunny side of the slope, after the battle began, they only had to climb over the low mountain beam in front of them, and they could face the right flank of the Japanese army in Chizhou, and the task of the L Regiment was to break through the Japanese front line in Chizhou in front of the L18th Regiment on the opposite side, and then kill and wound as many small Japanese as possible.

Li Zihan divided the more than a dozen combat units of the regiment into four sortie sequences, the first in line was the L company, the first company, and the ninth company with the strongest combat effectiveness, the other six infantry companies were the second and third sequences, and the remaining guard company, heavy machine gun company, engineer platoon, communications platoon, health team, cooking squad and other units were the fourth sequence, and every officer and soldier of the L regiment went up to the battlefield, and even the regiment commander Li Zihan buckled a steel helmet and carried a submachine gun into the sortie position.

There were about two minutes left before the agreed general attack time, Sun Laobao took out a box of cigarettes from his jacket pocket, popped a mouth out of the cigarette box, took out a match from another pocket and struck it, lit the cigarette and took a hard breath, feeling the thick smoke churning in his lungs, Sun Laobao's eyes narrowed.

Every time before the war, Sun Laobao will smoke a cigarette, he really can't find a cigarette, he will also find a way to get tobacco shredded to smoke a pot of old cigarettes, cigarettes can not only remind, increase people's concentration, but also slightly paralyze the nerves, make people forget the fear before the war, the fear before the war is always the most difficult, veterans are no exception.

After all, no one in this world is really not afraid of death, and who doesn't want to live well?

The faint smoke soon covered Sun Laobao's cold face, and in the smoke, Sun Laobao's spirit gradually entered a specific state, as a veteran, there will always be a way to adjust his mental state, so that it can enter the rhythm suitable for fighting, only the new soldier will be at a loss, and his eyes will be blank and set foot on the battlefield.

Turning his head, Sun Laobao's eyes fell on a small soldier, this little soldier was brought by Sun Laobao from the army, he looked obviously less than seventeen years old, maybe even younger, but he was already a veteran who had been in the army for three years, this little guy was picked up by Sun Laobao on the way to retreat, when he was hungry and fainted on the side of the road, there was only one bite left

"Steamed buns, follow me later, don't run away" Sun Laobao patted Xiaobing's shoulder.

Xiaobing Mantou was holding a small whetstone to sharpen the bayonet, Sun Laobao told him that he didn't pay attention, just squinted his left eye and looked at the extremely sharp bayonet, and then used the thumb of his right hand to try the blade of the knife, as well as the tip of the knife, and then satisfied the small piece of whetstone carefully put back into the satchel.

It was about the same time, and Sun Laobao put the cigarette butt on the soles of his feet to extinguish it.

After another moment, a red flare creaked and screaked into the sky.

Sun Lao Leopard was like an agile old leopard, swooping up from the grass, turning his head and yelling: "Brothers, rush"

"Rush, ......"

"Rush, ......"

"Rush, ......"

More than 150 officers and men of the company jumped up from the grass one after another, and one by one they opened their throats and roared vigorously, and then with bayonets, they followed Sun Lao Leopard like a tide to the mountain beams in front of them.

The ridges were low, and in less than a moment, the earthy tide of soldiers had already overflowed the top of the mountain.

Beyond the top of the mountain, the Japanese attack position in front of the front appeared in front of them, at this time the little Japan did not expect that they would be attacked by the anti-Japanese salvation army and the first army in southern Anhui, and was putting in troops to launch a fierce attack on the 3rd regiment in front, the shells fired by the Japanese artillery were blowing up the position of the 3rd regiment in the middle into a sea of fire, and four planes were diving and strafing.
