Chapter 126: Digging a Pit and Waiting for You (2)

The three of them listened to Xue Ru's explanation, and they all nodded again and again, what they admired most was not Xue Ru's clever tactics, but so many unexpected. There is also the psychology of calculating devils, put yourself in their shoes, if you are a devil, you will also be fooled, because there are too many unexpected places in it.

Everyone believes that they will win. As long as you understand one thing, that is, as long as the devils attack, they will not be fine, and they will inevitably fall into the circle, unless they don't attack. Isn't that proof that it's safe here?

Xue Ru said: "I don't think the devils will attack for a while, they have to figure out the situation." We won't attack easily until we find out what is going on, so we still have time to prepare. Tomorrow, Zhao Wufu's logistics department will cooperate with the Fourth Squadron to buy food from the surrounding areas, not too much, just enough for more than ten days, and we don't want more. ”

Zhao Wufu nodded in agreement. Xue Ru said: "The other three squadrons, the third squadron cooperated with Ouyang Sari to prepare for artillery, and the first squadron and the second squadron prepared in front of the cottage to prepare for an ambush. ”

Several people stood up together and agreed, and the night passed, and the next day the Wei Ming reconnaissance team in charge of the periphery came with news that there was still no movement in the direction of the Chihe River, and the Japanese army did not react.

This situation makes Xue Ru very strange, is the devil just like that? It seems impossible. Aren't they arrogant? Two brigades were wiped out, is that all? It's impossible to think about it. Then I will add fire to him and make the devil believe that he wants to turn this place into a base and stick to it for a long time.

Xue Ru, who had a calculation, began to build walls and houses, looking like he planned to be here for a long time. It was already April, the weather was starting to get hot, and the soldiers were tired and sweaty, but they were very prepared.

Captured Japanese mountain artillery and infantry artillery were dragged in, and artillery positions were being built on several high points around the cottage. There was no professional artillery, and Ouyang Sari, the commander of the anti-aircraft artillery company, became an expert commander and transferred the regiments commanded by the third squadron. Even Dai Wensheng worked together, and angrily pointed at Ouyang Sari and scolded: "You kid remember, one day it will fall into my hands, see how I clean you up." ”

Ouyang Sari said nonchalantly: "I'll wait, but you don't have a chance, Captain Dai, there are still several cannons, hurry up, it'll be dark in a while." ”

Dai Wen drank a scoop of cold water angrily, wiped his mouth and said, "Feng Shui takes turns, you wait." After speaking, he instructed the soldiers to pull the cannon up the mountain, this kind of mountain cannon also weighs more than a ton, and it is a little difficult to get to such a high place, but there is no way, so I have to increase the manpower.

Xiao Yong and Qiao Han were not easy either, cutting down trees, cleaning up the shooting boundary, setting up temporary walls, and laying layers of mechanisms in the cottage, some of these arrangements were said by Xue Ru, and some were thought of by soldiers and officers, anyway, as long as they thought of it, they all thought of it. If the devils knew about these arrangements, they would not have come to attack if they were killed. It's a pity that the devil doesn't know.

For three days in a row, the devil did not move, and on the fifth day, there was still no response, which made Xue Ru also a little strange, did the devil really plan to give up here and stop caring about himself? However, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible.

Seeing that the cottage was almost arranged, he said to Dai Zong: "You take your direct team down the mountain, lurk at Zhangbaling Station, blow up the railway, and then retreat, remember, it is to let the devils know that we are attacking." ”

Dai Zong nodded: "I understand, they are really calm, so let him be anxious." ”

Xue Ru nodded, indeed, her arrangements were to lure the devil to attack, here is the trap she arranged, if the devil doesn't come, isn't it prepared in vain? Is it really possible to stay here for a long time?

Liu Yuanshan asked, "Miss, where are we going to go here?" Back to Chao County? ”

Xue Ru said: "No, we don't have logistical supplies, the more we fight, the less ammunition we fight, after this battle, we have to find someone to replenish us, so we can't go back to Chao County, we don't know Xu Yuanquan." ”

Liu Yuanshan didn't know who Xue Ru was going to look for, but he understood what it meant: "Hehe, who does Miss fancy again?" Isn't it Commander Xue? I heard that he was in Zhengzhou. ”

Xue Ru said: "That's the last place, you can't eat it all at once, this time I will find the 71st Army first, they will go to Shangqiu, go up there to replenish." ”

Liu Yuanshan smiled: "If Commander Song knew that you were wronged by him, would he turn against you?" ”

Xue Ru also knew that she was so inauthentic, obviously Song Xilian had a good impression of herself, knew her news, and invited herself to serve as the deputy chief of staff as soon as possible, but Wu Yuzhao made her not believe anyone now. These generals of the national army are all too ghostly, and they are always calculating themselves. I used to be grateful to him, but now I am not so grateful, it turns out that everyone has a purpose, nothing more than to borrow their own abilities.

The last sentence in Song Xilian's telegram made Xue Ru uncomfortable, so he took him as a wronged person and went to him to supplement, but he wouldn't listen to him.

The phrase is "It's better to bring the Snow Fox Brigade". This seems to have nothing to do with valuing Xue Ru's ability and the friendship between the two parties, since you are so unparticular, then don't blame yourself.

Later generations, although Xue Ru has a serious side of feelings, it cannot but be said that she is influenced by later generations, and she does not feel any guilt for taking advantage of women's own advantages and taking advantage of men's psychology. This is your own volition, and I didn't deliberately lie to you, if you have the conditions not to take advantage of it, you are a fool.

It is with such thoughts, so for Xiao Yong and Lan Xun Zhou, Xue Ru didn't feel that there was anything wrong with them, and it wasn't to use you to achieve personal selfish goals, and it wasn't for the War of Resistance. Therefore, she naturally thought of going to Shangqiu to seek refuge with Song Xilian after the battle of Zhang Baling. But that was just to solve the supplementary problem of the Snow Fox Brigade and help the 71st Army fight, she did not resist, it was anti-Japanese, but she didn't want to accept the command of these people.

Hearing Xue Ru's plan, Liu Yuanshan was no longer worried, but no one understood why the devil was so stable.

Xue Ru can't help but be anxious, her financial resources are limited. It is surrounded by devils, the people are very poor, and the food is not easy to buy.

There is a big plan behind her, and she can't go out at this time to grab money, if she wants to get rich, she has to be above the county seat. In that way, Snow Fox's ammunition consumption is greater, so she can't stay in Zhang Baling for a long time.

In the first few days, she was worried about the devil's attack, and she was not ready, but after the preparation in the past few days, the devil did not attack, and she began to get anxious. Send Dai Zong's people to blow up the railway, and see if the devil is in a hurry.

At the headquarters of the 13th Division in Bengbu, Lieutenant General Dizhou Libing also had his own plans, they were field divisions, responsible for attacking Guzhen and Lingbi, and the direction was Xuzhou.

Railway transportation is the business of the local gendarmerie and the railway garrison, and the successive failures are in the hands of the snow fox, so that the Japanese troops are already a little timid. It has a significant impact on the future.

Therefore, the soldiers of Ogizhou did not immediately order an attack on Qinglong Village to take revenge. That's not what a soldier does, he's not a warrior, he's not a ronin, he won't do that.

The 65th Wing, which had withdrawn to Chihe, was transferred out and returned to Mingguang. The task of guarding the railway from Mingguang to Chuxian was handed over to the Chihe Military Police Brigade and the 8th Railway Garrison Brigade.

These are also new to the Japanese army, because from the beginning of the war to the present, the Japanese army has been actively attacking, with a good fighting posture, and will definitely not be wiped out by two brigades and indifferent. However, as the battle deepened, some Japanese generals were no longer what they used to think, and this was quietly changing.

To understand the Japanese army's war of aggression against China, Xue Ru could not understand what every general of the Japanese army thought. In Xue Ru's impression, the Japanese were war machines, only knowing about killing and murder, and they were infinitely loyal to the Emperor of Japan, as if they had no selfish intentions.

In fact, this is related to a lot of misleading propaganda in later generations, such as film and television works and literary works, which focus on reflecting Japan's militarist ideology and portraying Japanese soldiers as fierce devils with no human desires. However, they are human beings, and they have human characteristics, and their selfish pursuit of fame and fortune is not bad at all. The fact that the Japanese troops were able to coordinate with each other and actively make meritorious contributions was not because they were unselfish, but because of their national conditions and the nature of the army.

If you want to make meritorious service and be promoted, you only have military merits, which forces the Japanese generals to be very active in fighting.

This is different from the national army, which looks at the relationship, the background, the seniority and how many people and guns you have. As a result, the national army will not be so active in fighting, and they will also watch each other and see death without help, and they will kill all their own soldiers and fulfill the affairs of others and no one will do it. It's a lineage, a relationship, a backstage, and it's okay to lose the battle, that's why it's like this. Songhu and Nanjing are national enemies and national honors, so that these generals do not want to be wanted for the time being, so that there is a situation of bloody battles in Shanghai and bitter battles in Nanjing.

Now facing the danger of confronting the snow fox, Ogisu Libing proceeds from his own interests, and he does not want to be in the limelight, so as not to affect his promotion. Therefore, the 65th Wing was ordered to enter Mingguang and prepare for an attack in the direction of Xuzhou, and did not intend to attack Zhangbaling Qinglongzhai.

Xue Ru didn't know about these situations, and there was no place to report her results, the battle that happened in Qinglongzhai was full of 500 people and 2,000 people, which was enough to shake the battle of the world, so that no one knew.

Of course, Japan will not publicize this kind of humiliating thing, so no one knows about it, and the Ogisu soldiers will shut up and stop talking.

In fact, the Japanese side is also very strange, killing more than a dozen Japanese soldiers and burning two cars, the Chinese side will make a big report, sometimes a regiment ambushes a squad of devils, as long as the Japanese army retreats, the Chinese side will vigorously boast about some great victory. The Japanese defeat at Taierzhuang and the elimination of almost a brigade regiment were almost universally celebrated in China.

However, in a battle like Zhang Baling, there was no movement on the Chinese side, which is indeed very strange. In the eyes of the Japanese army, the battle of Zhang Baling should be more talked about than the battle of Taierzhuang, after all, the battle of Taierzhuang, the imperial army was more than 30,000 people, and the Chinese was nearly 100,000 troops participating in the battle, the Japanese army suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and the casualties on the Chinese side are estimated to be more than 50,000.

However, the Chinese did not want to publicize the great victory everywhere, and according to the Dizhou army, Zhang Baling Qinglongzhai was considered a great victory, because according to the soldiers who fled back, Snow Fox only had more than 500 people participating in the battle, and with 500 to 2,000, completely annihilating the enemy army, and its own casualties were minimal, such a battle made the Japanese army fearful. It is also the reason why the soldiers of Ogizhou retreated and no longer thought about messing with the snow fox.

Ogizhou Libing was indeed justified, and he transferred the troops from Mingguang to the north to Fengcheng and attacked north, and he didn't care about Zhang Baling's affairs. However, the 12th Army of the North China Front could not be ignored, and the Central China Dispatch Army Shunroku Habata could not be ignored. Because they received a report that the Snow Fox Brigade lurking in Qinglong Village of Zhangbaling attacked the Zhangbaling train, a squadron of 150 people of the railway garrison was wiped out, the railway within two kilometers was blown up, a large number of trains were crushed in Chuxian, and the supply of weapons and ammunition could not be sent to the front line.

This report made the Japanese army very angry, and General Shun Hata had just become a general, and he didn't know much about the Snow Fox Brigade, and he didn't pay much attention to it. One has no regular number, but the strength of a division, and it is nothing to retreat across Jiangbei. According to the intelligence, their attack on Quanjiao was only a plunder and retreat, and there was no military action, and of course they would not take it to heart. After all, he is a military-level unit, how can he pay attention to a small division-level unit.

However, the previous battle report had just arrived, followed by a telegram from Terauchi Shouichi of the 12th Army of the North China Front, asking the Central China Dispatch Army to open the Jinpu Road as soon as possible, and the divisions of the Central China Dispatch Army to attack Xuzhou as soon as possible to participate in the operation, solve Xuzhou, and at the same time block the door for the Chinese army to escape.

This time, he couldn't help but attract the attention of Shunroku Hatata, and brought the chief of staff, Major General Shozo Kawabe, over: "Kawabe-kun, what's going on with the Snow Fox Brigade?" ”

Hebe Zhengsan was the chief of staff, and hurriedly said: "According to our understanding, after the Snow Fox Corps retreated to Chao County, there has been no movement. A few days ago, they split, the troops separated, Xue Ru, the captain of the Snow Fox Brigade, lost power, and the troops were reorganized into an independent 45th Brigade and drove to the area of Macheng, Gu'an. They attacked the 65th Wing this time, inflicting considerable losses on the Imperial Army, and at the same time occupying Qinglong Village. The 13th Division went north to attack, and they attacked the railway station in Zhang Baling. ”

Shunroku Hata nodded, his chief of staff was still very qualified and understood in such detail. Shunroku Hata disagreed, since the troops were split into a brigade, the number of people was limited. said: "Order the troops of the 3rd Division in Chuxian County to attack Qinglongzhai and eliminate the Snow Fox Brigade." Repair the railway, ensure supplies, and allow the two divisions to attack as soon as possible. ”

"Hey." Hebe Zhengsanli agreed: "Your Excellency Commander, I think that the 6th Division has been assembled, and the 27th Division has also been put in place. ”

Hata Junroku nodded, this is a multi-kill thing, and said: "Order the 6th Division to land from Hexian and attack Hefei, and at the same time order the 27th Division to cooperate with the operation and be sure to occupy Hefei." ”

"Hey." Riverside Masao stood up again. The commander agreed to all of his suggestions, and it seemed that he was still very qualified. He was the chief of staff and knew a little more about the battlefield. He also had this hunch, Snow Fox didn't seem to be high-profile, but every time he hit the imperial army hard, it played a key role.

Chief of Staff Mamoru Iinuma also confessed when he left his post and asked him to pay attention to the small unit of Snow Fox. The role played by the people from Shanghai to Nanjing was very large, but the Nationalist Government did not pay attention to them, and they were stupid.

Kawabe Shozo also paid attention, this time he suddenly heard that the snow fox attacked Jinpu Road, and immediately understood the situation. Knowing that the Snow Fox was split, he was very happy, thinking that this was an opportunity to eliminate the Snow Fox and also occupy Hefei. So, a proposal was made and it was adopted by the commander.

The very happy Major General Shozo Kawabe gave an order to Lieutenant General Fujita Shin of the 3rd Division in Yangzhou to send troops to attack Zhangbaling Qinglongzhai and eliminate the Snow Fox Brigade entrenched there.

As soon as the 3rd Division, which received the order, learned about it, it really attached great importance to it. This is not the first time that Lieutenant General Fujita has been defeated at the hands of Snow Fox. But now they are only a brigade, not even a thousand people, which reassured him, and ordered the 6th Wing in Chuxian and Lai'an, Cangyong Chenzhi Dazuo, to lead a wing to attack Qinglongzhai and eliminate the Snow Fox Brigade.

Fujita thought that he attached great importance to it, and there were less than 1,000 people, so he sent an integrated wing, more than 3,800 people.
