vs 121 Awakening
vs 121 Awakening
If the squad to the west was eaten by the enemy's unexpected attack, which made Yoshio Sonoda feel extremely angry, then the next half day was a complete torment for him.
The entire 106th Division has suffered heavy losses after entering the Wanjialing area, especially the battle in the two places of Changling, and the mountain of Zhanggu Mountain has lost nearly 1,000 people, and the red blood can almost stain the first inch of land on the red mountain. And what makes them helpless is that even so, more than half of Zhang Gushan is still in the hands of the enemy, because of Zhang Gushan's loss, Nantianpu's division headquarters has been hit by several waves, and it is far away, if it is not for the troops guarding around the division headquarters are the most elite infantry wings of the division and regiment, I am afraid they will not be able to receive orders from the division and regiment headquarters.
Under the circumstance that the commanders of the division and regiment were about to urge him almost once an hour, Yoshio Sonoda used almost all the military tactics he had learned all his life.
The strength of a brigade is not too much, but it is not much less, and the direction is enough to stand alone in normal times, but now in the face of this kind of bumping offensive and defensive battles, facing an enemy equal in number to him, there is no advantage to speak of.
Yoshio Sonoda seemed to have sensed the problem of the southern ridge, which they had taken at great cost yesterday, but until now it had been of no avail, and with the top of the hill firmly occupied by the enemy, they had been able to flank the southern foot of the flank very little.
But let him give up on Dongling? It's also unlikely, after all, the price paid yesterday is too great, it's easy to give up, and if you want to get it back, you can take it.
Faced with this situation, Yoshio Sonoda gathered more than half of his forces to storm the position on the west side, and finally after an hour, took the first line of defense at the foot of the mountain, however, their results were limited to this, when they attacked halfway up the mountain, their first wave of attack suffered great losses, and the dense fire on the mountainside almost made Sonoda Yoshio despair.
Subsequently, he turned his fire to attack Nanling, this time, he deliberately left an ambush at the foot of the mountain, wanting to lure the enemy deeper, so as to kill a large number of enemy troops, but after losing the defense line at the foot of the mountain, the enemy on the hillside did not take any chances, and stuck on the mountainside, supporting each other on both sides, and the defense was impermeable.
Seeing that time passed little by little, and after losing nearly a squadron, there was still no progress, Yoshio Sonoda gathered all the troops of Dongling and the lower mountain in the evening to launch a general attack on the south, this time, he did not lure the enemy, did not divide the troops, and gathered almost all the troops that could be used in the south.
However, at the beginning of the battle, he suffered a blow, the enemy at the peak of Wanjialing suddenly killed, straight to the east ridge, the Japanese army that was attacking to the south faced the enemy rushing down, and could only quickly shrink the defensive line, so as not to be driven down the mountain in the case of being flanked.
The result is self-evident, lost the cooperation of the east, even if the Japanese army invested enough troops on the frontal battlefield, but still did not play the slightest role, the timely support of the first battalion and the timely return of Li Shijian and others withstood the counterattack of the Japanese army, in one day, the 302nd regiment held Zhanggushan at a small cost, and did not give the Japanese army any chance from beginning to end.
In a small col about three miles away from Zhang Gushan, Zhang Lingfu slowly opened his eyes.
With the advent of winter, the trees gradually lose their vitality in summer, the leaves are yellow, falling with the wind, and the lonely trees show the bleakness of autumn and winter.
Before he could think about it, the sharp pain in his head made him let out a free cry*, making him stretch out his hands and want to hold his head. His voice and movements woke up everyone on the side, and a soldier couldn't help shouting excitedly when he saw the brigade commander wake up, and immediately anxiously waited for the officers of the 153rd Brigade who were not far away.
"Brigade, you're finally awake, thank goodness, you're finally awake!" Chang Xiaode, the head of the 306th regiment, choked up in his voice, and was almost speechless with excitement.
Zhang Lingfu reached out and touched the gauze, only then did he feel that his head was tightly wrapped in several layers, through the layers of gauze, a tingling pain, directly stimulated his nerves, and it took him a long time before he remembered what was going on, on the defense line on the east side of Zhang Gushan, he led the guards to rush around, and met a fierce Japanese army in a gap, his bayonet penetrated the opponent's chest, but it seemed to have been hit on the head......
Zhang Lingfu struggled to sit up, which naturally caused a rush among the people around him, he waved his hand, and immediately felt abnormal, and couldn't help but open his mouth and ask, "What is this place?" ”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, Tang Shenghai snorted coldly, thinking of the brothers who died on Zhang Gu Mountain, thinking of his brother Yu Qingxiang who finally tied himself down from the position, but he stayed there forever, it was a heartache, Chang Xiaode groaned for a while and said: "Brigade, this is the northeast of Zhang Gu Mountain, and then two or three miles to the north, it is Changling." ”
"Two or three miles away from Changling?" Zhang Lingfu read softly, and then a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said helplessly: "Zhang Gushan is lost?" ”
Chang Xiaode said without the slightest concealment: "Brigade seat, I gave the order to retreat, Zhang Gushan was ordered by me to abandon it, and if you want to punish it, punish me!" I asked Lao Tang to be tied down the mountain, and this has nothing to do with them. ”
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Zhang Lingfu was only stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then sighed and said, "How many of our brothers have withdrawn?" ”
"About a hundred." Chang Xiaode said bitterly when he heard this, "There are only so many people left, and some injured brothers refuse to leave, so they stay on the mountain and are broken." ”
Zhang Lingfu seemed to feel the pain in Chang Xiaode's heart, and re-felt the passion of the soldiers on Zhang Gushan who shouted and fought fiercely and swore to the death. He saw Tang Shenghai's cold face, the low heads of everyone on the side, and Lu Xing with a ashamed face.
He suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked hurriedly, "The stone is still in Zhanggu Mountain?" ”
Chang Xiaode nodded: "The 302nd Regiment is still in Zhanggushan, in order to cover the friendly forces in other directions to attack Nantianpu, Zhang Gushan must not let the devils in his hands, otherwise, the losses everywhere are too great, before evacuating, I had agreed with Commander Shi that the 302nd Regiment will hold on to Zhanggushan for at least 2 days, and if they have not received reinforcements after two days, they will break through." ”
"Good!" Zhang Lingfu immediately came to his senses, and when he heard the news, his head didn't seem to hurt anymore, and he immediately jumped up.
However, his face suddenly changed, and his gaze fell to the dim sky. Because he clearly remembered that it was dusk when he was unconscious yesterday, and now, it was already dark.
Chang Xiaode saw the change in the expression on the brigade commander's face, and immediately said: "Brigade, you have been in a coma for a day and a night, and there should be time before it." ”
"One day and one night! That is, today is the 9th? Zhang Lingfu asked, seeing Chang Xiaode nodded, he no longer hesitated, and immediately waved his hand and said: "The night is long and dreamy, the strength of the devil is too strong, there may be an accident at any time, immediately gather everyone and attack Zhang Gushan overnight." ”
At this time, Lu Xing walked over with a ashamed face and muttered: "Brigade seat, my subordinates are incompetent, I haven't broken through the devil's resistance for a day, and I haven't been able to kill Zhang Gushan for reinforcements!" ”
Zhang Lingfu waved his hand and said: "We all know the strength of the devil, the main forces of each department are on the mountain, and it is really difficult to attack the devil's position with this little person in your hand." Then he changed his tone and said, "How many men did you lose yesterday?" ”
Lu Xing said ashamedly: "I organized a wave of attack, the devil has heavy machine guns and mortar bombardment cover, the position is very firm, I am afraid of too many losses, so then divided the troops to guerrilla around the area, except for the first attack lost about a platoon, the loss of the rear is not big." ”
Zhang Lingfu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, patted Lu Xing's shoulder heavily and said: "Huanran, I didn't missee the wrong person, fortunately, I left you to command this army, and if you were someone else, this battle would not be able to be fought." ”
Lu Xing was even more uneasy and said, "Brigade, I didn't complete the task. ”
Zhang Lingfu said calmly: "There is no loss of manpower in vain, there is no blind attack, the task has been overfulfilled, as long as the people are still there, we have the capital to turn over, if the people are gone, there will be nothing." Now the 302nd regiment is still on Zhanggu Mountain, at the end of the day, the loss of the devils is definitely not small, hmph, this time they are dead! ”
"Immediately send someone to the front line of Zhang Gushan to find out the situation, and see if we can find a way to get in touch with the 302nd regiment, as long as the stone seizes the opportunity to cooperate with us, we can blossom in the middle and sweep away the devil." After Zhang Lingfu figured out the current situation in a very short time, the worries in his heart were swept away, although they lost their positions, but the strategic deployment in all aspects has been successfully achieved, as long as the 302nd Regiment is still guarding their positions, the initiative of this formation has been grasped in their hands.
Stretched out his hand and touched the gauze on his head, feeling the pain coming from his head, thinking of the brothers who died on the mountain, Zhang Lingfu's face couldn't help but be covered with a thick chill, Zhang Gushan, I can take it down once, I can take it down a second time!
Chang Xiaode looked at the sky and reminded on the side: "Brigade, let's go eat something first, the injury on your head is not neat, and you have been lying down for a day and a night, you have to pay attention to rest, and as soon as the previous news is delivered, we can set off immediately, without giving the devil a little time to rest, before dawn, we can definitely hit the little devil hard!" ”
