Chapter 2 Fighting a War is a Matter of Tactics

An airplane appeared in the sky, very low, very low. Standing on the ground, you can almost see the Japanese pilot in the cockpit. Maybe the devil knows that there is no anti-aircraft fire on the ground, so he is very bold to fly at a low altitude.

Zou Huanzhang breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be a reconnaissance plane. For such a reconnaissance plane, the troops on the ground have no choice but to watch it swagger in the sky to reconnoitre, and they all have a helpless face.

After a night's rest, Xue Ru's mood calmed down a lot. Now that you've crossed over, accept reality. Revolutionary soldiers, where is not to fight for the country.

The soldiers of the new era may not have the high revolutionary enthusiasm of the old-timers, but their knowledge and insight make them also more nationally conscious, and their national sentiment is also higher than that of the people of this era. Perhaps seeing more inequality, Xue Ru's nationalist sentiments are even more severe.

Talking about Bansu with Liuzi, I naturally thought of a lot of things about the Songhu Anti-Japanese War. At the same time, through the mouth of the sixth son, he also knows a lot of situations on the battlefield. I was lucky, Luodian has been fighting fiercely for more than a month, and thousands of soldiers of the national army have died here. This is already the third time to recapture Luodian, they are the 33rd Brigade, and the 201st Brigade of the 67th Division has just entered the position.

The commander of the 201st Brigade, General Cai Bingyan, was killed in battle to recapture Luodian. The 201st Brigade, which had already suffered more than half of the casualties, withdrew to the rear to rest, and the 33rd Brigade took over the defense of Luodian.

I heard that the chairman of the committee personally ordered to defend Luodian, and those who retreated were executed on the spot. The 5th Company was stationed at the street entrance on the west side of Luodian. Luodian is not big, just a small town of two or three square kilometers. But this is a plain, and there is no danger to defend. Luodian became the strongest place of defense. It and Baoshan on the east side formed the last barrier for the Japanese army to attack the downtown area of Shanghai.

At the same time, once Luodian was lost, the Japanese commander drove straight in, attacked Jiading, Suzhou, and then threatened the capital Nanjing. It can also attack the urban area and receive the Japanese marines trapped in Hongkou, so as to turn with the Japanese army in Suzhou Creek and completely occupy Shanghai.

All this, even if Xue Ru didn't listen to Liuzi, she knew it clearly. On the contrary, Liuzi is just a soldier and can't provide this. But as soon as he said it, Xue Ru knew what the situation was. Therefore, Xue Rucai didn't know if he could leave the Luodian battlefield or not.

Since it was a reconnaissance plane, it meant that the Japanese army intended to use a long-range attack, which was the most basic operational common sense. The aircraft determines the terrain and topography, plans the positions of the defenders, and indicates the targets for the artillery. Seeing Zou Huanzhang ordering the soldiers to enter the front-line position, Xue Ru was a little contemptuous, no wonder Shanghai would suffer more than 300,000 casualties in such a battle, I don't know such a simple reason.

Hurriedly ran over: "Company Commander Zou, you can't enter the position." ”

Zou Huanzhang glanced at Xue Ru: "Little girl? We are defending Luodian, why don't we enter the position? Escape? ”

Since yesterday, it seems that this company commander should be a northerner, although she has basically determined that her new identity is not very old, but she doesn't want people to say that she is small: "Company Commander Zou, I am also a soldier, don't call me a little girl, I have a name." ”

Zou Huanzhang smiled, he thought this little girl was very interesting, and when he saw the 201st Brigade withdrawn, they were all frightened. Such a small girl is not afraid at all, she is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

When I see what cruelty is, it's too late to cry. I can keep her, it is true that I see that her marksmanship is good, five shots and four devils, this is a genius. At her age, it can't be trained. But good marksmanship is fed by bullets, not just practicing aiming every day.

How did he know that Xue Ru was the result of years of hard training in order to be selected as a special soldier. Although the crossing is no longer that body, the feeling and essentials of training are still there. If it weren't for the poor health, how could she have fired five shots.

I secretly looked at it yesterday and found a large bruise on my shoulder, which was caused by the recoil of the gun. The power of the medium formal is great, but its recoil is also very large, and if it is not for long-term training, it is really difficult to hit accurately.

According to the information that Xue Ru has, at this point, it is officially inferior to the 38 style, but the power is several times more than the 38 style. Xue Ru still said: "Company commander, the Japanese reconnaissance planes determined the position, and then they shelled, and we entered the position, didn't we send them to death?" ”

Zou Huanzhang was a little stunned, how did this little girl know, in fact, she knew this, but what can she do, are you afraid of running away? Originally, Xue Ru was right, but the implication was as if he was stupid. Some were unhappy and said, "Don't you fight if you're afraid of death?" You're not a soldier, so go back to the back if you're afraid. ”

Xue Ru is anxious, is this a question of whether you are afraid of death? It's just a stupid, I thought that in the future generations and the company commander, I would say that female soldiers are popular in the army, and generally male soldiers are spoiled, so they dare to speak. said angrily: "The key to fighting a war is the use of tactics, and we must find a way, not the courage of a horseman." That's a straw bale. ”

was said to be a straw bag by a girl who was not a soldier, which made Zou Huanzhang furious: "Shut up, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will arrest you." Liuzi, send her to the back, and send her to the rear with the convoy in a while. ”

"Yes" The sixth son was very reluctant to let Xue Ru go, but he also knew that the company commander didn't want this girl to die, so he hurriedly agreed.

Xue Ru's bullish temper also came up and stopped in front of Zou Huanzhang: "No, you are careless of people's lives and let your brothers die." I disagree. ”

Zou Huanzhang's eyes widened: "Little girl, believe it or not, I'll shoot you now?" disturbing the morale of the army is punishable by death. When we put on our military uniforms and set foot on this land, we are ready to die, Chinese men, do you care about little devils? To the end, the War of Resistance is like home, this is a soldier. Tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers have fallen here, and none of them are good men or good soldiers who are afraid of death. I repeat, get out of the way. ”

The majestic mountains and rivers that he said were also a little helpless. In fact, Zou Huanzhang didn't understand that in the face of Japanese aircraft, artillery and tanks, they had more than 200 people, and he didn't know how many people could be alive after a battle. In fact, how many people in the army headed for Shanghai knew that they could not go back.

Even the brigade commander and the division commander wrote a suicide note, and it has been more than a month since the war began, and on the Songhu battlefield, more than 100,000 soldiers of the national army have spilled their blood here. It's just a Luodian, the 11th, 67th, and 98th divisions, and more than 10,000 people have died here.

Xue Ru still stood in front of him: "I don't agree, you can't do this, combat is about tactics, you are meaningless to send to death." ”

Zhang Jing, the leader of the platoon, came over: "Miss Xue, we know your kindness, but look at the soldiers of the whole company, there is no one who is afraid of death, we will fight with the little devil to the end." These soldiers also shouted together: "Fight to the end, kill all the Japanese invaders." ”

Xue Ru wanted to cry a little, this is the confidence of the Chinese people, they may not understand too many big truths, but they will not hesitate to die to protect their family and defend the country. He said with some excitement: "Company Commander Zou, you can shoot me, but I still have to stop you, I don't want to see you die in vain." Sacrifice must be valuable, even if you die, you have to drag the devil to die together. ”

Zhang Jing seemed to understand what Xue Ru meant: "Miss Xue can know the use of tactics, how do you say we should not be sent to death." ”

Xue Ru said: "The devil is the attacker, when to fight, they have the final say, but how to fight us has the final say." This is still the outskirts of Luodian, we can abandon our positions, bring the devils into the town, and ambush them. With these buildings, together with the devils, their artillery and aircraft will be useless, isn't it better than being shelled on the position? ”

Although Zou Huanzhang is a company commander, he can be regarded as a company commander who has experienced a hundred battles, the Central Plains War, the Northern Expedition, and the suppression of the Communist Party in Jiangxi, and has been promoted to company commander step by step. Xue Ru's eyes lit up when he said this, but then he said dimly: "They have grenadiers and light mortars, once they are put into the town, if they can't be destroyed, they will lose their positions, and Zhengluo Dian will also be lost." This is the position that Brigade Commander Cai recaptured with his life, and it must not be lost in my hands. No, the whole company immediately entered the position, strengthened the construction, and prepared for battle. ”

Xue Ru thought he would agree, but he vetoed it. said angrily: "If you listen to me, you will be fine, and you can destroy more devils." ”

Zhang Jing was very interested: "Company commander, listen to Miss Xue." ”

Zou Huanzhang didn't say anything with a cold face, Xue Ru glared at him and said: "It's very simple, the whole company picked out a few good marksmanship and ambushed them at the commanding heights on both sides of the road, they are not fighting devils, they are just staring at machine gunners, grenadiers and artillerymen, and they don't let them have a chance to shoot and fire." In the rear prepare a concentration of machine guns, blocking their retreat. Attack left and right, if you can't do it, you will fight with a white edge, and you don't believe that the devil is three-headed and six-armed. With their little short legs, can they be opponents? ”

Zhang Jing asked strangely: "Where did Miss Xue go to the military school, how do you know this?" ”

Zou Huanzhang was also very strange, how could a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl have these schemes, and looked at her strangely. Xue Ru couldn't explain, so she said, "This is a family heirloom, don't ask." Hurry up and prepare, the devils will attack soon. ”

Zou Huanzhang was taken aback: "Hurry, prepare immediately." After speaking, I was stunned, but how to prepare?

Xue Ru said: "What are you doing in a daze, send some people to prepare." As soon as the shelling stopped, the devils immediately entered the position, and when their attack began, they pretended to be defeated and retreated, and the others laid ambushes on both sides of the street to ambush the devils who came in. ”

Zou Huanzhang said: "The devils are not stupid, there is no one on the battlefield, they will not open fire." ”

Xue Ru said: "That's not simple, get some shabby military uniforms and still put them on the position, and then plant a few military flags, and the devil can't go close to see it." ”

Zhang Jing said again and again: "Good way, company commander, I'll see it." ”

Zou Huanzhang can't help but admit that this is a good way: "The first row is ready to lure the devils in, and the second and third rows are ambushed by houses on both sides of the road." The fourth platoon of concentrated machine-gun mortars blocked in the back and hit me hard. ”

Seeing that Zou Huanzhang agreed with his opinion, Xue Ru was very happy. These people are so good that they even cover themselves at night, and she doesn't want to watch them die. said to Zou Huanzhang: "Pick a few good marksmanship for me." ”

Zou Huanzhang couldn't help it, this little girl was like she was the battalion commander, and she actually commanded herself. shouted: "Kimberly, find ten people with good marksmanship to follow Miss Xue and obey the command." Six sons, protect Miss Xue. ”

The one who was called Kimberly was a big beard, and I couldn't tell how big it was. Lizheng agreed, and quickly found ten people with good marksmanship and stood in front of Xue Ru. Xue Ru was also not polite, she knew that this was not a drill, nor was it a movie, it was true, and if she couldn't get it, she would die. was also a little nervous, and said: "A group of three, Kimberly, you take two people, ambush at the commanding heights, keep an eye on the heavy weapons, don't care about the other devils, even if it's in front of you, just stare at the machine gunner." Look for more than three locations, take a shot to change places, and take care to protect yourself. Zhang Zongfa, with two people, stared at the grenadiers, and Qiao Han, with two people, stared at the mortars. Like Team Leader Kim, look for as many locations as you can, and change places with one shot. Sixth son, Dai Zong followed me. Quick, act. ”

After a few people figured it out, they scattered around to find their hiding place.
