Chapter Ninety-Six: The Decisive Battle of Huinan (7) (Subscription Requested)
Jiaodao Chongxiong attacked for a whole day with the strength of a division, killing and wounding more than 700 people, and he had not yet crossed into the city. When the setting sun shone on the gap in the broken city wall, Jiaodao Heavy Bear saw the corpses of Japanese soldiers more than one meter high piled up there!
The chief of staff behind him ran over: "Division commander, the commander called for the third time to inquire about the battle situation!" ”
Jiaodao Chongxiong's mouth moved: "Reply to the commander, the enemy's resistance is very tenacious, and our army is trying to break through." ”
This reply is equivalent to saying nothing, and because weishenme didn't say it, Kuroki Weizhen understood the meaning.
After receiving the telegram from Jiaodao Shigekuma, Kuroki took a deep breath and put this telegram together with the telegram sent by the reserve 1st Division just now. The 1st Reserve Division also surrounded the 5th Regiment and Tang Yulin's 8th Regiment, and the attack was not smooth, but they still had a harvest there, and they captured more than 100 prisoners of the Volunteers.
The 1st Division asked for instructions on what to do with these people, and Kuroki ordered them to send them back. He felt that these captives could do something.
This time, although Western countries all supported the Japanese to exterminate the beast of Yang Dagui, Kuroki Weizhen knew that the scorched earth method he used might cause some trouble in the future, so he wanted to do a little public relations work to show those Westerners and let those Westerners know that the Japanese are civilized.
When it was getting dark, more than 100 captured volunteers were dragged to the headquarters of Kuroki by a group of Japanese soldiers with long ropes, and Mark and the American reporter raised their cameras to take pictures of the prisoners, and the news would appear in the newspaper tomorrow, but the photos would not be taken until at least three days later.
The more than 100 captured volunteers winced at the flashing lights, leaning together as much as they could. Everyone huddles together so they feel safer.
Kuroki walked up to them with a smile on his face. In a very calm tone, he asked, "Who are you leaders?" ”
The interpreter immediately translated this into Chinese, and a one-eyed man in his forties stood up in the crowd: "I, I am their company commander." ”
Mark hurriedly ran over at this time: "Commander Kurogi, I want to interview them, can you?" ”
Kuroki nodded for Zhen: "Of course you can, it's your right." But I hope Mr. Mark will wait a little longer, some of them are injured and must be treated promptly. Also, I'll ask them some questions about this war. It may take up to an hour. After an hour, Mr. Mark was free to do as many interviews as he pleased. ”
Mark was obviously very satisfied with this answer, and he really felt very surprised by this group of captives, from the bandits in Yulu Mountain to the present, Yang Xiaolin has been fighting against the Russians. It's not that his brothers don't want to surrender, it's just that surrender is a meaningless thing for them. From the very beginning, the Manchu Qing Dynasty killed Liu Yikun by means of surrender, and everyone understood that putting down the gun meant death, and they knew that if they wanted to live, they had to use the rifle in their hands to kill a way out. Slowly, they have developed the habit of not surrendering.
However, those under Tang Yulin have not been brainwashed by Yang Xiaolin, and this time they are not facing the Russians who they think will have no way to survive if they surrender, these more than 100 people, all of them are from Tang Yulin's team.
It would have been in the eyes of those in the West. The capture of a few prisoners by the Japanese did not have any special significance, especially the surrender of the Chinese, and there was no need for interviews at all. Mark went to think that these people did not care about the surrender of Weishenme, they were wearing the clothes of the volunteers, if Yang Xiaolin can become a climate in the future, then this first batch of captives is very valuable to report. …,
Does Yang Xiaolin still have a chance to become a climate? Mark didn't know. As a successful journalist, he doesn't let go of any material that might make a splash.
Mark didn't know how much trouble his approach had caused Kuroki to Zhen, and after agreeing to Mark in person, Kuroki Weizhen immediately turned his head and whispered to Fujii: "Let these captives not talk nonsense, so that they can be taught by Haode, and those who are disobedient will be killed immediately!" ”
"Hayi!"
It's true to treat the wounds of these volunteers, but it's really for these Western observers to see, Kuroki plans to let these reporters take a few pictures and then take these people to a place where Westerners can't see them and kill them in the name of transfer, why is this Briton interviewing these prisoners of war? It's really going to make a mess for yourself.
Kuroki Weizhen's heart is actually not as easy as he seems to be, Yang didn't use the second trick of fighting ghosts, what would he do? If this answer is not revealed, it is impossible for him to relax himself.
The battle ahead was not going well, and after the first reserve division succeeded, Jiaodao Chongxiong would not be able to attack Huinan County, and Huinan would not be able to put pressure on Yang Dagui if it was not broken. There was no movement in the direction of the Russians, which made Kuroki Weizhen's heart very worried. What he was most worried about was the movement of the Russian team, and the Russians did not move after a while, which made him even more afraid.
Kuroki Weizhen didn't know that General Akberlil's stop was because Yang Dagui refused the Russian troops' request to participate in the war, the Russians were very sincere, and Akberil had even promised that after the Russian troops entered the base of the Volunteers, they would only shoot at the Japanese, and they would abide by the military discipline of the Volunteers along the way, and if Yang Xiaolin was not at ease, he could send someone to supervise their march.
This attitude is something that the Russians have never used, begging others to help others, Lao Maozi has never done such a thing! Akberlier felt that he had lost face, but what made him even more embarrassed was that Yang Xiaolin refused very simply. He told Akberil that it was okay to fight the Japanese if he wanted, and that when he died, the Russian troops could enter his base and fight the Japanese.
This attitude embarrassed Ackberil very much, he was a Russian general after all, and Yang Xiaolin's answer without saving face at all made him very difficult to explain to his subordinates.
Not only the Russians, but even Feng Delin and Jin Dadao thought that Yang Xiaolin was a little too paranoid. Feng Delin was quite dissatisfied with Yang Xiaolin's letting the Japanese surround Tang Yulin and Liu Xianhe's team, and he thought that Yang Xiaolin would not let the Russians in, and at least he should go to rescue Tang Yulin and them.
At that time, they had a chance, and when the battle of Shuangfeng Township began, Yang Xiaolin still had Gu Tianming commanding four regiments this time, as well as a regiment that originally belonged to Feng Delin. There are also more than five thousand militiamen. With so many people rushing up, Tang Yulin will definitely be rescued.
But Yang Xiaolin let these people all hide by his side. didn't go to save people, and watched the surrounded brothers rush left and right to kill but couldn't break through the encirclement of the Japanese army, which really made Feng Delin a little unbearable.
He hadn't spoken to Yang Xiaolin for a whole day.
I just received the news that one of the Zuihou artillery of the fourth regiment was also blown up by the opponent's artillery fire. It is a miracle that the artillery has been able to hold out until now, and their local tactics have played a very important role in the battle, blocking the enemy's attacks many times, and also assisting the volunteers to launch many times.
Yang Pian has never been an artilleryman, and when he was in the People's Liberation Army, he never fired a single artillery, and he did not understand artillery tactics. The artillery of this era just read from the books does not apply at all. Yang Xiaolin himself did not expect that the artillery of the Volunteer Army was forced to choose this tactic - dividing the position of the artillery fire. Divide the area of the target for strike. Artillery fire is used separately according to the needs of the front line, which is the simplest tactic of combining infantry and artillery! …,
Western countries only began to use this tactic in World War II, if Biaozi only found that this tactic might be used in Houma Town, then after the first battle of Huinan, the infantry and artillery of the volunteers combined. And so it was born.
They just lacked the means of communication to connect the front and rear artillery. Of course, Yang Xiaolin is also needed to win the war in front of him.
Yang Xiaolin's eyes were staring at the map, he was looking at the location of the Japanese Guards Division. To be honest, what Yang Xiaolin was most worried about in this battle was this division. Don't look at the Japanese army, the difference is very big.
The Japanese troops in the Guards Division are all elite soldiers who have been systematically trained, and the other divisions are relatively weaker, such as the reserve 1st Division and the 16th Reserve Brigade of the original Yalu River Army, many soldiers are Japanese ronin recruited from Korea, and there are even some pro-Japanese Koreans.
So the departure of the Japanese Guards Division really made Yang Xiaolin very happy. It's like a pie falling from the sky.
Is it possible to attack the reserve infantry brigade of the Japanese army?
Yang Xiaolin had some doubts. The reserve infantry brigade, to put it bluntly, is a transport team, but little Japan will definitely send troops to rescue them, can Lu Lao 6 and Lu Lao Qi's team fight to the death? Yang Xiaolin didn't dare to guarantee it. His fingers tapped on the table, and Chen Tianhua walked in from outside at this time: "General, you want the second batch of supplies, and the Russians have already sent them to you." ”
Yang Xiaolin responded very casually: "Hmm." Got it. ”
Chen Tianhua said again: "Also, Zhang Zuolin is here and has brought more than 3,000 guns. ”
Yang Xiaolin stood up with a hula, and he spoke almost at the same time as Feng Delin on the side: "Where are the people?" ”
Chen Tianhua said: "It's just ten miles away, I don't know what you mean, so I didn't bring him to see you." ”
Yang Xiaolin didn't wait for Chen Tianhua to say anything more, and grabbed his arm: "Go!" Take me to him! ”
Zhang Zuolin came at the right time, he originally wanted to hide in the Yulu Mountain with Yang Xiaolin, after all, it was safer for the two of them to hide together, and Yang Xiaolin had some supplies, so he wouldn't look hungry.
But he really didn't expect that he had just arrived here and heard the news that Yang Dagui was fighting with the Japanese again, and that he was fighting with more than five divisions of the Japanese First Army, which really made him have the idea of taking his legs.
After thinking about it, I felt that it was wrong, I didn't know it, I knew, I got to the front, I couldn't talk about it if I ran away with my legs, if it was spread out and known by the brothers on the road, then I wouldn't have to mix it up in the future.
So he ended up coming. After a few people greeted each other, they sat down according to the guest and host, and Zhang Zuolin's first sentence was: "General, do you grasp it again this time?" ”
Yang Xiaolin smiled: "There weren't many, but it's different when you come!" Didn't I say it, you, me, Brother Feng, as long as the three of us brothers are of one mind, there is nothing we can't do, this time I want to make the First Army look good! ”
It's useless to just say it, especially for people like Zhang Zuolin, if you don't let him see the detailed jihua, he won't believe your mouth.
Of course, Yang Xiaolin understood this truth, and waved his hand after saying his bold words: "Map!" ”
A map was immediately laid out in front of them, Zhang Zuolin turned his head over, Yang Xiaolin pointed to Huinan County and said: "The 11th Division of Little Japan is here, they have been fighting for almost two days, I dare to conclude that they will not be able to defeat even if they fight for two more days!" ”
"The Japanese reserve first division is in Shuangfenggou, the Guards Division has gone to guard against the Russians, and there are only two divisions and one reserve brigade on Kuroki Weizhen's side, and we have every chance."
Zhang Zuolin glanced at him: "What are you going to do?" ”
Yang Xiaolin said: "I plan to attack the Japanese army's food and salary, the Japanese do not have much supplies, as long as my supplies are burned, little Japan has no food or drink, and it will definitely be defeated in five days!" ”
