The red stone is formed by the cooling and sedimentation of the volcanic eruption magma hundreds of millions of years ago, and it is covered with red rocks, and the red ones are particularly conspicuous under the sun, so the locals call it the red stone stone.
The mountain is not high, the victory is precipitous, the strange stones stand in a forest, there are many ditches, the tall pine birch is rarely seen on the mountain, it is full of shrubs that the locals call "climbing pine", it is conducive to hiding the whereabouts, a winding mountain road passes through this, it is the only throat road to the north, the terrain is dangerous.
At about 9 o'clock the next morning, more than 1,600 people from the 1st and 2nd Brigades of the vanguard finally arrived here.
Without waiting for a break, Tang Qiuli led the commanders at all levels to immediately check the terrain, choose the ambush location, arrange the preset position, everyone admired while watching, it was really a good place to fight an ambush, the terrain on the hillside, the defense is not conducive to attack, the natural cave, the big one can hide more than 20 people, the small one can hide the first person, which can avoid the soldiers from suffering from the enemy's fire to the greatest extent, there are several natural caves behind the hillside, located in the dead corner of the firepower, you can arrange the wounded and ammunition, materials, etc., natural terrain, Even the construction of the fortifications saved a lot of effort......
At about 11 o'clock, the three follow-up brigades, the artillery brigade, the baggage brigade, the recruit brigade, and the medical detachment all arrived.
Tang Qiuli immediately began to deploy, choosing a relatively spacious area at the bottom of the ditch and few concealments as an ambush battlefield, the second brigade was deployed in the east hill, and the third brigade was deployed in the west hill, using natural concealment to establish a stable fire support point, and the first brigade built fortifications in front of the ditch bottom to block the direction of the devil's breakthrough.
At the entrance of the valley, a large number of explosives are planted in advance, which is the narrowest place in the entire ambush area, the two mountains face each other, raise their heads to the sky, when the devils enter the ambush circle, they immediately detonate, and a large number of rocks poured down fill the mountain pass, cutting off the devils' retreat.
In contrast, the responsibility of a large group is much heavier than that of other brigades, in this direction, the distance between the hills on both sides is wider, it is unrealistic to block the road by blasting, after the devil suffers a sudden blow, the back road is cut off, and the hills on both sides are easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it is inevitable to forcibly break through, seize the road and escape, all the pressure falls on the shoulders of the first team, which is also what Tang Qiuli is more worried about.
In fact, Tang Qiuli and Li Honggang carefully studied the plan, but they still adopted the old method of pouring water and ice on the Eagle's Beak Ridge to build strong fortifications, and drew out a platoon of troops from each of the other two brigades to reinforce the first brigade, and also transferred 20 Czech-style light machine guns, 5 heavy machine guns, and 15 grenadiers to the frontal blocking position.
After finishing these, Tang Qiuli, Liu Tiehan, and Feng Jiwu came to the artillery position, twenty infantry guns and forty-five mortars, distributed on the hills on both sides, and the artillerymen were busy leveling the artillery positions. ”
Zheng Yong took a closer look and patted his head, "Hey! Mistakes, mistakes, I'll adjust right away! "A few people studied it, and in the end, four infantry guns and five mortars were specially designed to provide fire support for a large group, and the coordinates were set in advance.
Tang Qiuli came to the back mountain again, in a cave, the medical detachment had prepared ambulance equipment, Zhou Yushan was mobilizing the recruits before the battle, several squadron leaders were teaching some new soldiers to use weapons, they were busy, seeing the commander and them coming, they were busy saluting and greeting affectionately, Tang Qiuli looked at these new soldiers, this is the reserve in his hand, I hope they don't need them, they are all recruits!
They inspected the baggage team again, hundreds of horses, all of which had been hidden in a few caves, all the horses were quietly chewing forage, some soldiers were busy distributing ammunition to the combat troops, busy but not chaotic, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, Zhou Yushan, the captain, is quite competent, whether it is the management of the baggage team or the recruit brigade, they are all handy, and the cadres of the Red Army who have accidents are different.
After all the preparations were completed, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and the devils were coming, and the troops hurried to eat and rest, and then they returned to the headquarters, which was set up in a cave near the top of the mountain, with a wide field of vision, and a bird's-eye view of the entire battlefield.
In the cave, the radio and walkie-talkie of the communication center have already communicated with the contact of a brigade, and the frequency is being adjusted, and the electric keys are "ticking", and there is a tense atmosphere before the battle, he immediately asked the radio operator to call out Qiuquan, and in the headphones, Qiuquan's voice was very excited, which made him feel a lot more relieved.
Qiuquan said: "Along the way, they followed behind the devil's buttocks, so that the enemy could not eat well, not rest well, knocked out more than 200 enemies piecemeal, and they did not have any casualties, now, the devil has reached the periphery of the red stone stone, it is estimated that in two more hours, you can enter the ambush circle, it may be that the terrain is dangerous, the devil has become cautious, strengthened the search and vigilance, they are not attacking the devil, and now they are rushing back, striving to meet the large army in front of the devil." ”
Tang Qiuli relaxed in his heart, suddenly felt a burst of sleepiness, his eyelids were uncontrollable and heavy, wrapped in a coat, leaning against the stones in the cave, falling into a deep sleep, holding a large cake in his hand that he had bitten a few bites, and only then did he see a vague childishness on his face.
In the noisy cave, it suddenly became quiet, and the staff officers and messengers who came in and out slowed down, and the confidential officers who shouted loudly also lowered their voices.
Gathered in front of a map, Liu Tiehan and Feng Jiwu, who were studying problems with the staff officers, raised their heads and glanced at each other, Liu Tiehan took off his coat and gently covered Tang Qiuli, his eyes were full of a brotherly love, it was difficult for him, a big boy who was only sixteen years old, but he had to support such a heavy burden, the future of the troops, the life and death of thousands of people, all tied to one, what were we doing when we were sixteen years old? The childlike heart is still in the beginning, the chaos is just beginning, how much wisdom does he still have that we don't know?
That is, after about twenty minutes, Tang Qiuli suddenly opened his eyes, why did I fall asleep? At the moment of the great enemy, there was still leisure to sleep, and he shook his head in annoyance.
Feng Jiwu said regretfully: "Commander, you should sleep more!" It's only been about 20 minutes, and we're staring at it! ”
Sleeping enough, no wonder the old people said that it was better to take a nap than to sleep for a long time, Tang Qiuli felt refreshed, so the fatigue was swept away, and he did a few gymnastic movements, "Is the devil coming?" He asked, his dark eyes shining in the dim light,
"Not yet, reconnaissance posts have been dispatched along the way, and we will know as soon as there is news," Liu Tiehan replied, and then said: "Commander, let's eat quickly, it's cold, keep it for you!" Tang Qiu took a look, ho! The food is not bad, there are soups and vegetables, as well as special spiced jerky, which is also Tang Qiuli's special request to the logistics department, must ensure the supply of meat to the troops, for this, Zhang Quan did not grind less, it didn't work, what the commander asked was to maintain the body of the soldiers, he didn't bother to think about it, and finally figured out such a trick.
A large number of pickled air-dried meat, easy to preserve, easy to carry, good taste, once sent to the troops, can make the soldiers happy, between the march and battle, there is no time to cook, eat a few pieces of jerky, catch a few handfuls of snow, and satisfy hunger and full, all say that this is a good thing, and it has become the standard ration of the army.
After eating, it was already dark, there was no wind, the cold was biting, dry and cold, the sky was about to change, and another heavy snow was coming.
Tang Qiuli stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the land of Kanto in the night, his thoughts fluttering far away.
Feng Jiwu's voice came from behind, "Commander, there is news from the reconnaissance post ahead, the devil's vanguard has approached Taniguchi", and several pairs of binoculars were aimed at Taniguchi's direction.
In the dark and dreary night, first two lights pierced the darkness, like the eyes of a poisonous snake, and then, the bright light of horse lanterns, flashlights, and torches wanted to be everywhere The ghost fire came up, and the sound of the engine came clearly, and the devil was still the same, first the armored vehicles opened the road, the infantry followed, and the artillery pressed the formation.
Where did the light suddenly stop at the mouth of the valley, Tang Qiuli immediately realized a problem, the devil saw that the terrain here was dangerous, I was afraid that he would not come to a fire reconnaissance first? He immediately asked Feng Jiwu to notify all the troops, immediately enter the bunker, and avoid the reconnaissance fire of the devils, without the order of the command, even if the shells fell on his body, he was not allowed to shoot, Feng Jiwu was busy arranging.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, there was a thunderous sound outside the valley, and several flame monsters screamed through the air, and then the shells exploded in the ambush of the troops on both sides of the hill, exploding fireballs, little devils and field artillery? Immediately afterwards, mortar shells and grenadier shells also came one after another, for a while, the two hills were blown up in flames, and the rubble flew around, Feng Jiwu looked at Tang Qiuli's back with admiration, fortunately, the commander saw through the devil's trick, otherwise, the troops were exposed to the front line, this artillery fire was enough to drink a pot, and the casualties were not small.
The devil's artillery fire lasted more than 20 minutes before it gradually stopped, and the valley was filled with the pungent smell of gunsmoke.
The lights moved, and the devils, after reconnaissance by artillery fire, began to march again.
In fact, the old devil Okazaki, who led the team, was depressed enough for a night this day, since he left that small mountain village, the troops did not know that they were targeted by that force, followed by their ass and put cold guns, the troops put up a good position, but they couldn't even catch a single figure, as hateful as flies, all the way down, more than 200 soldiers were wounded and killed, especially when camping last night, several marching pots were actually leaked, and the soldiers of the noble army had to eat raw rice, Chinese, samurai are not, a group of cowards, Sneaky work!
However, there is still an impression in that small village, the soldiers of the Imperial Army showed their martial arts, and taught a lesson to those Manchurians who dared to collude with the Anti-Union, especially the seventeen or eighteen-year-old beautiful flower girl, who was specially singled out by her subordinates to give it to me, and she was supposed to be taken back to the barracks after the rape and enjoyed it for a few days, but she actually bit the dignified Japanese Imperial Army officer, and in a fit of anger, she rewarded her to more than a dozen guards under her command, which were all sturdy emperor's people. This was the result of daring to rebel against the Imperial Army.
It was supposed to be here at noon today, but the damned Chinese delayed the march.
When I arrived at the Red Rock Pass, Okazaki looked at the terrain here and gasped, why did he feel bottomless? Waving his hand and calling over to Liu Yanwang, the commander of the national army, asked about the terrain here in detail, after Liu Yanwang said this, Okazaki's heart was even more bottomless, and he was a little panicked.
He rolled his eyes and came up with an idea, asking Liu Yanwang's national troops to search and advance along the hills on both sides to cover the imperial army's large army to pass here. In fact, in the eyes of devils, you are not a person at all, at most a dog.
Liu Yan Wang thought about it, he had to push this errand ah, he also knew that those young master soldiers under his command usually robbed homes and houses, and harmed the people.
When Okazaki heard it, it also made sense, so what should I do, I can't say that I am afraid of an ambush, so I won't lose the face of the imperial army! A few heads came together and came up with such a rut.
After a burst of chaotic shelling, Okazaki was down-to-earth and relieved, even if there were anti-Japanese elements ambushed here, they would have been blown to pieces a long time ago.
"Quick, get out of the way!" The Devil's Brigade continued to march.
On the hill, the soldiers hit the cave and felt out, shaking the dust on their bodies, and the shell just now did not even hurt a single hair, but the soil that shook down, a little blind.
Soon, the soldiers entered the position, and in the dark night, thousands of pairs of vengeful eyes, countless black holes, and the muzzles of countless black holes, stared closely at the devils and traitors who did not know whether they were alive or dead, and walked towards the ambush circle step by step......
