Chapter 4: Turning to War (8)

It was full of strong personnel, and the road was very fast, and in the afternoon, he arrived at Tianhuangping, and Xu Ping saw Huang Tianhua for the first time.

Seeing Xu Ping, Huang Tianhua said happily: "I just telegraphed with the boss, but I know theoretically that this road can lead to Lin'an, but no one has walked it, I don't know what the road conditions are, you can do it once you go." If it is good, I would like to ask Director Qin to take a batch of supplies with the logistics personnel first, so that our mobile combat capability can be greatly increased. ”

Xu Ping told him that this is a solid mountain road, the road is not wide enough, the wheelbarrow can walk, other cars cannot, of course, there is no problem for people to carry on their shoulders.

introduced Huang Bamei to Huang Tianhua and told Huang Tianhua about the equipment. Huang Tianhua extended his warmest welcome to Huang Bamei: "Thank you so much, Commander Huang, I never dreamed that in this place, there would be other troops to support us, it is so touching." You let your brothers gather together and let me see, I don't have anything else, what you said is that I have more bullets here, and I will give you a part of the bullets, and I will save my logistics staff the hard work. ”

Huang Bamei is like a child who has found gold, she doesn't know how to answer for a while, happiness comes too quickly, and sometimes it is very uncomfortable. It's still the people around her who are sensible, and they crawl over and gather all the people as quickly as possible.

Huang Bamei's people are composed of several parts, one is the smuggler of salt, the second is the Jiangyang thief, the third is the scattered remnants of the soldiers, and the fourth is the landless peasants. No matter what kind of person it is, when they see Huang Tianhua's people bringing out bundles of rifles and rolls of clothes, they all know that this time it is really a shotgun change.

Changed into 38 guns and put on standard military uniforms, Huang Bamei's group of rabble immediately had the appearance of people and dogs, especially those veterans who were scattered on the Songhu battlefield, regained the temperament of soldiers, and under their influence, all of them began to walk with their chests held high and talk with their noses facing the sky.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Xu Le's news came back, the Japanese army had been dispatched, sure enough, the troops were divided into three ways, the 55th Infantry Wing under the leadership of the brigade commander Yamashita Chongwu, with more than 20 tanks, more than 10 field guns and more than 30 mountain guns to the west, straight to Xiaofeng, the 56th Wing was divided into two, one brigade stayed in Anji, and the other two brigades under the leadership of the wing commander Xiduo San, went straight to Tianhuangping.

The 56th Wing was the focus of Xu Le's observation, and he carefully counted the heads, less than 2,000 people, it seemed that they were two brigades with a lack of quotas, and the losses in this attack on Nanjing were not small. There were more than 1,500 people in one brigade of the Japanese army, and two brigades should have exceeded 3,000, and the unit in front of them, the infantry plus a mortar squadron of the 12th Artillery Wing, was less than 2,000, and its strength was limited.

After Xu Le asked the telegraph to send the news back, he rode a two-wheeled motorcycle and left with the telegraph operator at a rapid pace. In order to adapt to the road south of Tianhuangping, the Japanese three-wheeled motorcycle, the tow bucket was dismantled by the engineer company and turned into two wheels, and the tires on the tow bucket were changed to unicycles. As for the three modified two-wheeled motorcycles, they have become the treasures of the regimental police platoon.

After receiving accurate information, Huang Tianhua immediately sent a telegram to Mo Di and informed him of his battle plan. Yesterday, the engineer company was busy for a day about five kilometers away from the Tianhuangping station, burying 500 Japanese-style * and *remodeled* in an area of more than one kilometer, and Huang Tianhua decided to detonate them as soon as the Japanese troops entered this area, and while the Japanese were bombed to the ground, the three infantry battalions would be killed together and would surely win a great victory.

The plan was denied by Modi. Mo Enemy demanded that Huang Tianhua withdraw his troops to the mountainous area south of Tianhuangping, and bury another 300 shells in the temporary garrison of Tianhuangping*, both of which were triggered by artillery bombardment, and the work was completed by Li Baicheng. If the Japanese army retreats after being bombed twice, don't pay attention to him, if you continue to chase after the ghost, carry out a small unit sniper in the mountains to the south, don't fight too big every time, let the Japanese army feel that this is the last attack, hang the Japanese army to pursue south, exchange space for victory, time for life, don't engage in infantry battalions at every turn, this kind of trick of killing 10,000 people and losing 3,000 is best not to do it.

Mo Di's plan was highly praised by Huang Bamei, who thought that as long as there were three days, the group of Japanese soldiers could be dragged to death in Mogan Mountain. Xu Ping once again proposed that another brigade of the 56th Wing guarding Anji must be transferred, and if this group of Japanese troops is not transferred, the idea of the logistics supply depot will not be moved, and then this battle will be a loss. Xu Ping's words were repeatedly agreed by Qin Jishi, he is a standard profiteer, and everything is based on profit and loss.

Huang Tianhua thought about Mo Di's plan again and again, sighed, and said: "Boss Mo is a natural general, this set of fighting methods has not been taught in Huangpu, and there is no precedent in military history. ”

Huang Bamei said: "Your commander is the smartest commander I know, this style of play has the least losses, although it is tired, but it has an effect, if we can transfer the defensive troops, we will be big!" ”

Seeing Huang Bamei's greedy look, several people laughed. Women are greedy for money and are greedy like this, which can only mean the same, men will not look for money.

Huang Tianhua is not a person who eats the ancients, on the basis of the invincible plan, he immediately made arrangements, first of all, the position of the artillery company, the maximum firing range of the 70 infantry guns is only three kilometers, so the first artillery position must be less than three kilometers away from the first minefield, and immediately retreat south after the minefield is triggered, enter the second artillery position as quickly as possible, and wait for the Japanese army to enter the second minefield. After triggering the second minefield, immediately retreat into the mountains to the south.

Starting from Xishikeng, the first battalion began to attack sporadically, three companies and three points, only shooting guns and not charging, mainly to destroy the living forces of the Japanese army, from Xishikeng to Dahe Mountain, the 20-mile mountain road must become the 20-mile cemetery of the Japanese army, and every big tree and every mountain rock will become the condition and advantage for killing the Japanese army.

Xu Le's people do not participate in ambushes, their job is to send reinforcements and pack tails.

Huang Bamei's people and Xu Ping's people did not participate in the battle, and their job was to empty the Anji Logistics Supply Department.

The company commander under Huang Bamei is a veteran of the Hunan Army who was injured in the Battle of Songhu, named Liu Keji, who agrees with Huang Tianhua's arrangement very much, and he believes that being able to defend in this active way is many times better than those fools in the General Staff of the National Army. If such an active defense could be achieved on the Songhu front, why would the Shanghai war situation be so erosive. He told Huang Bamei that the commander of the 1056 regiment was polite, and he didn't want us to participate in the war, because he didn't want us to have any damage, in fact, we were also people who had fought in the war, and we couldn't stand by at this time, so he asked Huang Bamei to take out all the brothers who had participated in the battle formation, form a company, and take the initiative to ask for reinforcements with Xu Le's spear company, with three or eight guns in his hand, and a hundred bullets on his waist, so as not to kill a few devils, I am sorry for the brothers who died on the battlefield of Songhu.

Huang Tianhua agreed to their invitation to fight, and at the same time asked Huang Bamei to take the rest of her people to watch the battle, learn war in the war, and learn to fight in the battle. Huang Bamei knew that the opportunity was rare, so she gathered her subordinates together, and these newcomers were so nervous that their whole bodies trembled.

The Japanese army marched in a very orderly manner, a squad walked in front, holding a 38 rifle, the pace was not slow, the eyes were looking around, and the wind and grass in one hand were blowing, and they immediately opened fire.

About 500 meters behind his squad was a dense group of Chinese troops, and Wing Commander Xi Duo 3 and the mortar squadron of 12 70-caliber mortars were clustered in this team. On the top of the mountain in the distance, the men of the regimental headquarters and the police platoon stared at the first minefield in front of them, and as soon as the Japanese troops entered this minefield, they immediately called for Li Baicheng to open fire.

The most difficult thing in this time period is Li Baicheng, it is not difficult to fire artillery, it is not difficult to trigger a minefield, the difficulty is how to withdraw as quickly as possible after the artillery is fired, if the Japanese catch up, they can only abandon the artillery. These infantry guns are treasures, they are the only long-range attack force of the 1056th Regiment, compared to other mortars and two-kick grenadiers that can only hit a few hundred meters, they are not the same.

Finally, Li Baicheng's people saw the flag waving on the top of the mountain in the distance, and they also heard the scheduled call in the walkie-talkie, three bird calls and four cicada songs.

"Fire!" The shells came out of their disembowels and flew towards their intended targets.

The shells fell to the ground and bloomed, and the shells of the Chinese army really did not have a crosshair, and they fell where there was no one. This is obviously the 70 infantry gun of the imperial army, this cannon is extremely brave in the hands of the imperial army, and in the hands of the Chinese, it can only blow up the earth.

I thought so in my heart, but I still couldn't underestimate the shells made by the Empire, and I liked to squat down three times to prevent shrapnel from accidentally injuring myself. The quality of the Japanese army is really good, and they also squatted down with a brush, some of them were more stable, and they also lay on the ground. Immediately after the second round of shells, Xiduo looked at the drop point of the shells, counted them, and said: "There are not many cannons in the Zhina, only five, so you don't have to pay attention to them." "Inform the vanguard team, quickly find the opponent's 70 infantry guns, and annihilate them.

It was at this moment that a faint smell of nitrate came from the nose of the Hippodosan, and he cursed softly: The logistics of the empire are becoming more and more problematic, and there is already a smell of nitrate.

Before he could figure out the true source of the smell of gunpowder, he saw faint white smoke rising from everywhere, followed by a continuous explosion sound.

The explosion began right under their feet, and the Japanese were stunned and soon blew up the battalion.

The entire Chinese army began to run around, running around without a goal, knowing that this was entering the minefield arranged by the other party, but I don't know where * is, some devils stand still and have nothing to do, but they run to the top of * instead, boom, not dead or injured.

What a good opportunity, it is a waste not to charge at this time, the observation post in the distance said to Huang Tianhua of the command headquarters, and was scolded by Huang Tianhua: Don't have a chance to eat for nothing, you have to use manpower and material resources to get it, that's not an opportunity, that's a stupid.

Hundreds*, it was quickly blown up, and there was no smile on Xiduosan's face, he looked at the corpses in one place, the battalion full of wounded soldiers, and scolded angrily: "Eight grids to press the road!! ”

Counting the losses, more than 200 people were killed and more than 500 wounded, of which more than 100 were seriously wounded, at this time, the striker came back to report that three kilometers away, he saw the opponent's artillery position, the artillery had been transferred, and only a few shells were still hot. A kilometer or so further on, there is Tianhuangping, where there is an abandoned military camp, which is estimated to be the old camp of the previous Chinese army. Kitakasan ordered the troops to enter this camp and deal with the wounded and fallen warriors.

Seeing the Japanese army enter his preset position as he wished, Huang Tianhua almost laughed.
