Chapter 297: Military Exercise (2)
Chapter 297: Military Exercise (2)
The Japanese don't know when they feel their eyelids and lower their eyelids, these old brothers, sooner or later, you people will be killed, and the Japanese can't see what they are thinking about all day long?
A fierce ideological struggle in Tian Erniu's heart, the sense of responsibility of the soldiers and the conscience of the Chinese, prompted him to make up his mind, gritted his teeth, and let himself be shot by the military justice department.
He raised his gun, but he was smart enough not to aim the muzzle at the back of the Japanese soldier, but to the sky.
A "boom" gunshot, a sharp gunshot, pierced the quiet night sky, sounding particularly harsh and loud.
The sound of gunfire activated the forward position of the 258th Regiment, and the soldiers of the 258th Regiment in the haze were awakened by the sound of gunfire, and a nervous shout, the sound of pulling the bolt, in the dark night, resounded, revealing a tense atmosphere of imminent war.
About 500 meters from the forward position of the 258th Regiment, a series of flashlights suddenly lit up, illuminating the night sky snow-white, like the eyes of a hungry wolf, shining with cold light in the dark night.
Immediately, there was a burst of laughter in Japanese, and there was a stiff Chinese shouting: "Soldiers, don't be nervous, this is the soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army, who are conducting a simulated exercise of the night offensive subject, and treat you as the object of the exercise."
After these Japanese soldiers shouted, they swaggered out of the forward position of the 258th Regiment, laughing and playing while walking, unscrupulous, passing by Tian Erniu and their lurking position, they also deliberately shone a flashlight for a while, and there were several Japanese soldiers, doing obscene movements, as if they were demonstrating to the Chinese ** people.
Tian Erniu let out a sigh of relief, his whole body was soaked with sweat, and the Japanese soldiers passed in front of him one after another, and he secretly counted them, there were about more than a thousand people, this was the establishment of a Japanese brigade, he felt that the matter was very strict, and decided to report back to the regiment immediately.
Arrange a few veterans to stay here, and tell them to quickly change the location of the lurking outpost, and then, he quickly disappeared into the darkness, the squad leader left, and the remaining soldiers, who seemed to be full of courage, were also taken away, and in the night of Hesse, there seemed to be countless pairs of Japanese wolf eyes, staring at this isolated small army.
Tian Erniu touched back to the forward position, the 258th Regiment had become a frightened bird, a little wind and grass, can cause the sentries to shout loudly, the soldiers are even more nervous eyes, staring blankly at the dark night sky, like those ghost-like Japanese soldiers, suddenly appeared in front of him, bright bayonets, can pierce their chests at any time.
As soon as Tian Erniu entered the position, he met their battalion commander head-on, this battalion commander was even more wolf, when Tian Erniu's alarm gunshots rang out, the battalion commander was sleeping soundly, and he had a little wine with a few fellow villagers last night.
The first-level combat readiness order conveyed by the military department, this battalion commander didn't take it seriously at all, if the Japanese wanted to destroy us, they would have done it a long time ago, can they survive until now? Besides, with just a few broken guns, can we beat the Japanese? This battalion commander had already made up his mind, and as soon as the Japanese fired, he immediately surrendered, and he couldn't afford to put his life on the line.
As soon as the gunshots rang out, the battalion commander surnamed Liu, who was so excited that he didn't care about being neatly dressed, hurriedly ran out of the anti-artillery hole, found a place with few people to hide, and secretly wondered to himself, this Japanese said that they would do it, and there was no warning in advance.
Squinted for a while, there was no movement, he was frightened and carefully touched forward, and saw that the soldiers in the camp were all waiting there, it turned out that the Japanese did not fight, and immediately became bolder, and just happened to meet Tian Erniu head-on.
When he heard that it was Tian Erniu who fired the gun, he immediately became angry, staring at his red eyes, and his mouth was full of wine.
From time to time, he also sang against himself, this time there is a handle in my hands, the top has repeatedly ordered that no shooting is allowed, and the military law is violated, and the battalion commander Liu immediately shouted: "Come on, tie up Tian Erniu for me, and execute me tomorrow, see if you dare to disobey the military order"
Several of Battalion Commander Liu's cronies pounced on him, tied Tian Erniu firmly, and put him into an anti-artillery hole, waiting for the battalion commander's order to be carried out tomorrow.
Tian Erniu was unconvinced, this is still a big grievance, if he doesn't fire the gun to call the police, in case he really does a fake show, the brothers of one of our regiments will all become ghosts under the knife of the Japanese, and Camp Commander Liu is obviously a personal vendetta.
Let him shout out his throat, no one paid attention to him, and the rest of the soldiers were holding their breath in their hearts, but the Yin Wei of the battalion commander Liu dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, this surnamed Liu, ruthless, did not drink the blood of the soldiers, and the regiment commander was a brother, no one could afford to provoke him, and even the chief of staff saw him and let him give three points.
Erniu died unjustly, he saved the lives of the brothers in the whole regiment, what happened, who made the family an official? Our lives are in the hands of others.
The tense night finally passed, and the one that happened last night was like in a dream, and the terrifying flashlight, like the eyes of the devil, remained deep in the hearts of the soldiers of the 258th Regiment, and Tian Erniu was just a victim.
The sky was bright, Tang Qiuli had already rushed to the rear of the position of the 258th Regiment, and looked at it from a distance, there was a turbulent atmosphere in the lifeless atmosphere on the position, as if it was a deep fear, flowing silently in the air, it was too abnormal, here, something must have happened, Tang Qiuli made a judgment in his heart.
This scene last night was part of the Pingjin strategy carefully planned by Tashiro Wanichiro, commander of the Japanese North China Garrison Army, and in the name of the exercise, the two field wings were transferred to the vicinity of Wanping, and the original units were reorganized into a single unit, which was commanded by Yuan Yamajin, former deputy chief of staff of the North China Garrison Army and major general of the army.
The geographical location of the 258th Regiment is very important, guarding the safety of Wanping City on the flank, and Wanping is in a situation, once Wanping is attacked, the 258th Regiment can give the attacking troops a hard blow from the flank.
If Wanping is taken, Beiping is a dead city, and the Japanese army will be surrounded on all sides.
Therefore, the area defended by the 258th Regiment has become a heart disease for Tashiro, and if it is stuck in the throat, it will be obtained quickly.
Tashiro instructed Hara Yama to advance, look for opportunities, wait for an opportunity to seize the position of the 258th Regiment, advance the army of the Japanese Empire to Wanping City, once the base camp ordered a war, immediately seize Wanping City, control the Lugou Bridge, block the last retreat of the 29th Army, and annihilate the Chinese army in North China on the spot.
Harayama was an ambitious and daring fellow, with a strong militaristic mind, and since the day he joined the Japanese army, he swore allegiance to the emperor and opened up territory for the Japanese Empire, even if he sacrificed his own life.
The Yuanshan family, participated in the Sino-Japanese First Sino-Japanese War, the Russo-Japanese War, and the ancestors had many military exploits, but in the generation of Yuanshan, only Yuanshan Jin achieved a certain status in the army, and the family gradually declined.
Harayama was not satisfied with the headquarters of the North China garrison army of the Japanese Empire, the position of deputy chief of staff this prominent but no real power, he was eager to gallop on the battlefield and make meritorious achievements, Yamaguchi was defeated by Baihuashan, and the soldiers of a wing were broken, it was Harayama who participated in the questioning of Yamaguchi, and did a lot of tricks and feet in it, and finally made Yamaguchi disgraced and was put into another book by the base camp.
Harayama had long coveted the position of commander of the Yamaguchi Brigade, and now, he finally had the opportunity to lead the troops, although His Excellency Tashiro was stingy and only gave the soldiers of two wings, plus the original troops, barely reaching the standard of a second-class brigade, Harayama was already very satisfied.
He was very dissatisfied with Tashiro's order to wait for an opportunity, what is waiting for an opportunity, not waiting for an opportunity? His Excellency Tashiro is too cautious, and in the dictionary of the great Japanese emperor, there is never the word "waiting".
He didn't think that the 29th Army, which was called a miscellaneous force in the Chinese army, was his opponent, as long as the base camp gave an order, Yuan Shan could lead thousands of elites to take Beiping City in one fell swoop, so that the blood of the Chinese people would wash away the ancestral treasure knife and regain its glory.
Although the troops of the North China Independent Division came later, and as a senior officer of the North China Garrison Army, the predecessor of the Independent Division, the Anti-Japanese Bloody Hand Regiment, had long heard of the brilliant achievements in Manchuria, Yuan Shan was very disapproving.
In his opinion, this was an excuse concocted by the Kwantung Army to cover up its incompetence, and to use such grandiose reasons to cover up the fact that officers and soldiers were incapable of fighting power.
Although the Kwantung Army is known as the "flower of the army" of the empire, it has been stationed in Manchuria for more than 30 years, and it has long been sucked off by Manchuria's sorghum wine and charming Manchurian women, which have corroded the fighting spirit and strong muscles, and the Kwantung Army has become old.
There has been no large-scale battle for more than 30 years, and the Manchurian Incident is also called a battle, which is similar to chasing ducks, and as for fighting with the Red Beard of the Anti-Japanese Federation, it has no technical content. In this way, hundreds of thousands of elite troops of the Kwantung Army have not been cleared up until now.
I really don't know what the base camp thinks, Yuan Shan is like a hungry wolf with bared teeth, looking at the misty Beiping City, mobilizing all his ruthlessness, ready to pounce on it and bite it hard.
When the opportunity came, Song Zheyuan resigned from the post of commander of the 29th Army, and Yuan Shanjin, who was well versed in the inside story of the squadron, knew that the shortcomings of the squadron **** team, and the transfer or removal of the supreme commander would cause turmoil and unrest within the unit, and everyone was thinking about their own future, in the words of the Chinese, that is, "a son of heaven and a courtier." ”
Yuan Shan Jin did not hesitate, he judged that the 258th Regiment of the 29th Army opposite was now a time when the people's hearts were panicked and the morale of the army was unstable, and he immediately mobilized troops and began to carry out the military operation that he himself called the "Yuan Shan Plan."
When it came to such a heavy military operation, Harayama did not even report to the North China Garrison Army Headquarters, and he believed that since His Excellency Tashiro was called "waiting for an opportunity", then now was the perfect opportunity.
