Chapter 255: The Battle of Xiaowutai Mountain (1)

Under the sun, the afternoon breeze blew Tang Qiuli's cloak, like slightly open wings, it seemed that he was about to fly to the sky at any time, looking at the hillside, the deputy commander standing with his hands in his hands, the sun was on his body, reflecting a dazzling halo, almost making people hallucinate, is he the god of war coming from under the blue sky?

Perhaps infected by some kind of emotion, no one organized, all the soldiers of the cavalry brigade of the 29th Army, and the cavalry of the independent division, with battalions and companies as units, consciously lined up in a horizontal line, under the brigade commander's shout, holding a saber, the blade erected in front of them, to the deputy commander who led them to victory, to the cavalry of the highest courtesy, in Tang Qiuli's eyes, on the green grass, under the sun, erected a snow-white knife forest.

A feeling surged in his heart, moved by these lovely warriors, and he knew that from now on, as long as he gave an order, these warriors, even in the face of swords and fires, bullets and bullets, would charge into battle without hesitation.

I can only do my best to plan every battle, so that the lives of these young soldiers can be guaranteed to the greatest extent, this is my responsibility, and it is also a mission, Tang Qiuli solemnly returned a military salute to the soldiers, such a soldier deserves respect.

The only dozens of remaining bandit captives were escorted to Tang Qiuli, this is the rampant Wang Ying bandit, the only dozens of people left, they witnessed the destruction of this criminal bandit.

Or these guys saw the opportunity early, looked at the signs that were wrong, knelt on the ground early, raised their guns in both hands, waiting to be captured, the cavalry's sabers, swept over their heads with the sound of the wind, and one by one the sturdy war horses galloped past them, and the sound of horses' hooves like thunder completely drowned them out.

These bandits, who had long been frightened into a semi-coma, closed their eyes tightly, and gave their lives to God, and when they opened their eyes and saw the bodies of their accomplices, all over the place, they secretly rejoiced that they were still smart.

Tang Qiuli briefly interrogated, with his experience as a human being in two lives, from the eyes of these captured bandits, he could see through their inner world, these bandits should have been a person Wang Ying gang, and there was still a remnant of his human nature in his heart.

Tang Qiuli is not a person who loves to kill, what he is interested in is that all of Wang Ying's belongings, Wang Ying has been a bandit for many years, and he has done all the things of looting, and his family background is indispensable, according to the confession of the captured bandits, this time, in order to get more benefits, Wang Ying is going out of the nest, leaving only his most trusted master and more than 30 old, weak, sick and disabled bandits.

Tang Qiuli's eyes showed a green light, and the soldiers of the independent division knew that as soon as they saw the expression of the division commander, they knew that there was a great benefit, waiting for us to fish.

A cavalry company commander came over, Tang Qiuli nodded slightly at him, this company commander understood, took more than a dozen prisoners, took his own company, did not alarm the people of the cavalry brigade of the 29th Army, and quietly made a fortune, this kind of thing, sometimes, it is better not to say that it is broken, the remaining bandit prisoners, put together the guns and ammunition of the bandits and the Japanese army on the battlefield, and release them all after education.

At this point, the task of annihilating Wang Ying's bandit gang has been successfully completed, just waiting for the good news of the chief of staff of the cavalry brigade of the 29th Army, who is responsible for annihilating the bandit cavalry in the Haituozi Mountains, that battlefield, Tang Qiuli is not worried, if in that case, the battle is not clean and neat, his chief of staff will be in vain.

After the battle, the troops withdrew from the battlefield in the afternoon, crossed the Yanghe River, and in the evening, rested in the area of Dongnuanquan near Xin'an, on the one hand, they were waiting to be executed, and the cavalry of the combat mission in the Dahaituozi Mountain area returned, mainly when the battle in the Xiaowutai Mountain area was underway, the devils near Beiping sent troops to reinforce, and now, the entire Beiping surrounding, this mobile force in their own hands.

In the eyes of the officers and men of the Cavalry Brigade of the 29th Army, the officers and men of the Cavalry Brigade of the 29th Army were simply inconceivable that they could have such good food conditions in a temporary resting place after a fierce battle, and without harassing the residents.

Also surprised are the local residents, historically, military disasters and banditry, is the most terrible disaster for ordinary people, since the troops stationed in this area, the local people, panic all day long, there are big girls, little daughters-in-law, closed their doors early, anxiously listening to every small sound on the street, and some old ladies, devoutly kneeling in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva, burning incense and kowtowing, praying for the safety of the whole family.

Waited until the middle of the night, and didn't hear the sound of slamming the door that made their hearts tremble, could it be that these hills have turned sex? The uniforms of the 29th Army, these people recognize, after all, it is the army stationed in the local area, and the military discipline of the 29th Army is relatively strict, and there are very few things that harass the people, and the residents are not very afraid.

But the independent division is different, their military uniforms are the style of the Central Army, and what remains in their impression the most is the 11th year of the Republic of China, during the Central Plains War, the Central Army also visited this area, such as locusts transiting, almost no tiles remained, until five or six years later, the local area was restored to its former vitality.

Tang Qiuli didn't know that the thoughts of these ordinary people, his mind, had been completely focused on the Xiaowutai Mountain Campaign, which was about to begin, and as for the work of the masses, he had his own special department responsible for it.

In the independent divisions, there are other organs that the central army does not have, such as the democracy movement section and the democracy movement department set up in each regiment and brigade, which are specifically responsible for doing mass work, and this is also the department that Tang Qiuli adopted Li Honggang's construction and referred to the practice of the first army to set up after arriving in North China.

Tang Qiuli knows very well how powerful these ** party members are, as long as these people go down to the village, within a few days, almost everyone in the entire village will be intimate with the troops like a family, and ** has achieved the final victory, in the future battle behind enemy lines in North China, the seeds sown by the democracy movement department will become a fertile soil.

Tang Qiuli informed the troops of the news of the total annihilation of Wang Ying's bandits, escorting the troops, they could relieve their worries and go all out to deal with the frontal attack of Badarhu, and the weapons and ammunition escorted were now close to the preset battlefield of Xiaowutai Mountain, and the troops responsible for echelon blocking were still chasing the bandits with the tail of Badarhu, and there was a fierce battle, and the bandits attacked fiercely.

Liu Tiehan is still leading the left and right flanks to outflank the troops, trekking with great difficulty in the lofty mountains and mountains of North China, and it is expected that at about 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, all the troops will be able to arrive at the designated position, and Tang Qiuli can completely imagine under what conditions the tens of thousands of troops on both flanks will be able to arrive at the designated position nearly four or five hours in advance.

Zhao Dengyu called back, "Deputy Army Commander, our department is close to the scheduled rendezvous place, and the progress along the way is smooth, it is expected that there will be more than three hours to reach the designated position, please rest assured that all the officers and men of our brigade will resolutely complete the task."

It was now more than ten o'clock in the evening, Tang Qiuli looked at his watch, Zhao Dengyu's brigade could reach the receiving point before two o'clock in the morning, and Liu Tiehan's left and right flanks outflanked the troops and arrived at the designated position at six o'clock in the morning.

That is to say, there are still four hours of space in between, and this is also the time to test the escort troops, they will have to face a frantic attack of bandits whose strength far exceeds their own, and among them there is also a wing of Japanese troops, this Japanese army, not to be underestimated, four to five times, the independent 1st Brigade, will be under tremendous pressure.

He ordered that a telegram be sent to Feng Jiwu and Li Honggang immediately, urging the troops escorting weapons and ammunition to speed up the march and arrive at the designated handover place before two o'clock tomorrow morning to meet up with Zhao Dengyu's troops.

After handing over the weapons and ammunition, the 1st Independent Brigade, with the strength of four regiments at the same time, launched a full-line blockade, and made sure to firmly attract the Japanese army and bandit troops in Badalhu to the preset battlefield in the Xiaowutai Mountains.

The rest of the escort troops, Tang Qiuquan's 1st and 2nd Brigades of the Special Detachment, and Liu Chun's 1st and 2nd Cavalry Brigades, served as the left and right flanks of the blocking force to prevent Badarhu from outflanking the two flanks of the blocking force.

The 1st Independent Brigade and all units, at any cost, must firmly block the Japanese army and bandit troops in the Xiaowutai Mountains, preset the front line of the battlefield for five hours, outflank the troops on both flanks, and arrive and deploy along the way, so as to gain time.

The 1st and 2nd Cavalry Brigades, Liu Chun and Tong Batu, and Jiang Yanming, of the Huangyadong Garrison Brigade, who were following the bandits, will launch an all-out attack on the rearguard of the bandit troops from 2:30 a.m. tomorrow, and the pressure on Li Honggang's unit of the 1st Independent Brigade, which is responsible for the frontal blockade, will be fully responsible for this attack, and the other two brigades should fully cooperate.

The deployment of the campaign has been fully completed, and now, the most crucial thing is Liu Tiehan's troops, as long as they reach the designated position, the more than 3,000 Japanese soldiers and more than 20,000 bandits in Badarhu will be unable to escape.

Otherwise, with Badalhu's cunning and treachery, it is not difficult to judge the situation, and in these more than four hours, he can calmly arrange, withdraw all his arms from the battlefield, and disengage from the independent division, and these bandits will return to the mountains and forests.

With Li Honggang's only brigade and the troops following the bandits, it is not enough to fight a war of encirclement and annihilation, and if it is not done well, the dumpling filling will break the dumpling skin, and the bandits who have been beaten to the point of losing their troops will remember this kind of hatred on the head of the independent division, and small troubles will be indispensable in the future.

From the beginning of the exchange of fire with the escort troops of the independent division to now, only more than 20 hours have passed, but Badarhu feels like more than 20 years, what he is most worried about is time, the independent division still has nearly 50,000 troops, and it is impossible for Tang Qiuli, the commander of the insidious and vicious independent division, to sit back and watch the loss of this batch of weapons and ammunition.

However, up to now, apart from the thousands of troops of the Independent Division, which were clung to the back of their buttocks, they had not found any trace of the large units of the Independent Division, which they feared most.
