Chapter 11: Wild Supplement (3)

Back in Mabu, it's like the next year.

Mo Di left Mabu in March, when it was still cold and steep, the mountain was yellow, and there was no trace of green on the branches. Walking into the small courtyard I rented in Mabu, it was kind and strange. The rainy season has passed halfway, the rain hits the yellow plum head, there is no sun on the 45th, the yard is filled with a musty smell, which makes people want to lift the tile roof of the yard and let the sun shine in.

However, more than the musty smell was a large stack of telegrams and newspapers, which were all copies of telegrams sent by the General Staff of the 48th Army, and it seems that the General Staff Department had not forgotten that Mo Di was still the intelligence director of the 48th Army, and he was not exempted because of the departure of Commander Ou Shounian.

On the third day of the return journey, the Modi still used the car as a means of transportation, not because of how superior the car was, but because the car had returned to Mabu, and the car was still dangling on the road. The brethren of the guard company were cleaning, and Mo Di was already sitting in the well-ventilated foyer, and began to flip through the draft of the telegram one by one.

There was nothing new in the draft telegram before 15 June, and what the General Staff had had and had it there, and what the General Staff did not have, and what Mozambique had there. What is new is what happened after June 15, in the last few days of Dahongshan until he returned to Mabu, in Dahongshan, Mo Di no longer stayed in the staff department, he led the special task force with Ling Yunshang and Yan Shengwu to play out feelings, interests, and art in Dahongshan.

Without heavy artillery, the Japanese army became crippled, and the rainy season made the Japanese army blind, Wuhan Airport could not take off, and the plane at Xinyang Airport could take off, but could not fly to Dahong Mountain, and the heavy rain here would wash the plane down from the sky. Mo Wei joked to Ling Yunshang that the Chinese gods would not help the Japanese.

The last battle is a skinning battle, according to Jin Tongxuan, it is to peel off a layer of skin from Japan and let them return to Wuhan naked. After receiving the order to retreat, the 40th Division of the Japanese Army was ready to withdraw from Dahongshan, which had been fought for 20 days, which was a sad land, and after 20 days of fighting, in addition to the loss of troops and the generals, there was no inch of progress, and at the beginning it could find some sense of victory in the Sichuan army, and then it could only taste the lame taste in the Gui army. There is no problem in retreating, according to the Japanese idea, the Japanese army can be blocked in the Chinese battlefield, but the retreat is always very easy, because the Chinese army is very tired every time it fights, and it is eager for the Japanese army to withdraw from the theater as soon as possible, and will not make too many reservations for the retreating Japanese army.

Naojiro Amaya is saddened to find that his fate is so different. Others may not be able to enter, but they themselves may not be able to retreat.

The order to retreat was received not only by the 40th Division, but also by the Military Intelligence Department, which was in charge of the eavesdropping, at the same time.

"The Japanese army wants to leave!" The staff was boiling. The battle is finally over, and he can return to Luotian, Macheng, and return to the previous situation, suppressing bandits and policing on the border of Hubei and Anhui, and playing cards with bubble girls, at least, this time, he survived again.

"You can't let the Japanese go so easily." Mo Wei said to Ling Yunshang.

Ling Yunshang nodded and said, "Even if the Seventh Army gives in, our Eighty-fourth Army can't let it, and I have to kill a few more Japanese to avenge the division commander." ”

"Okay, I'll accompany you!" Mo Di said: "Even if the Seventh Army Special Service Group is withdrawn, I still have a guard company of more than 100 people, and I can clean up a few devils." ”

When Mo Enemy proposed to Wang Zanbin, deputy commander of the Seventh Army, that he would take advantage of the retreat of the Japanese army to fight another battle, Wang Zanbin, who had already received the order to withdraw from the battlefield from the theater, was silent and said: "The army's heart is on the way home, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to gather." What's more, the poor are not chasing, you must know that the trapped beast is still fighting, and there is no need to take the battle damage at this time. ”

Mo Di was about to retreat, but Yang Zanmo stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, I will ask for the opinions of all regiments, take the principle of voluntariness, do not make forced demands, if anyone is willing to fight, I will hand them over to you." ”

Through a short period of soliciting opinions, Yan Seng Wu and the whole 516 regiment led by him were willing to stay, and Wang Zanbin also persuaded the special service group to stay, in addition, only Qin Guosheng's guard company and Li Baicheng's artillery regiment remained. Although Zhang Gan, the commander of the Seventh Army, liked the compass and did not delay him from becoming a general with a sense of war, he learned that the invincible Yan monks and warriors were going to fight the last battle, and they had a hexagram, or because the hexagram was good, so he issued an order to the whole army, although Shangfeng asked the Seventh Army to withdraw from the battlefield, but there was no clear specific time.

Zhang Guangwei of the 84th Army had a completely different attitude, he took two infantry regiments, and he was already ready for battle, just waiting for the invincible plan to be introduced.

The invincible battle plan is very simple, it can even be said to be rough, if you can describe it in one word, it is "tired". He asked Zhang Guangwei to lead two regiments to brave the torrential rain to raise a dammed lake embankment on the right side of the valley on the side of the Japanese retreat, so that more rainwater could accumulate, and at the same time, bury the dam mouth* and prepare to blow up the embankment at any time to release water. Zhang Guangwei smiled incomprehensibly, this trick to flood the Seventh Army is a good move, but there is too little water, I am afraid that I can't drown anyone. Mo Di smiled and told Zhang Guangwei that he did not want to drown the Japanese army by relying on this bit of water, but wanted to use this water to block the retreat of the Japanese army a little, so that the Japanese army could assemble at the water's edge and be exposed to broad daylight unprepared.

Although Zhang Guangwei didn't know why Mo Di let the Japanese army be exposed in broad daylight without preparation, he just felt that there should be a certain reason for doing so, and the worst could scare the Japanese army a lot, so he took two regiments to become engineers. Fill the car with an inner tube*, bury it under the embankment, draw out the detonation device with wires, and then start filling it with earth. There is great strength in numbers, and soon, a levee appeared. After a night of standing water, the water inside was nearly three meters high, and the small dammed lake turned into a somewhat imposing lake.

The next day, at noon, the rain was still falling, and the small ditch on the side of the road was so strong that the road, which would have been able to walk for cars, became only two feet wide, and some of the roads were completely flooded. The Japanese army, led by the Ikeda detachment, slowly walked southward, with more than 20,000 people, pulling a long snake formation, several kilometers away.

Walking to the barrier, a flat area appeared in the mountains, and the rain was a little lighter, and the Ikeda detachment began lunch, and they opened the lid of the lunch box hanging from their backpacks, and the lid was facing the sky to catch the rain, and after a while, they took the small half box. With water, I took out a hard-tied rice ball from the lunch box, used the strength of milk, took a small bite, and then sent it down with the water in the lunch box.

Mo Di, who was standing far away on the top of the mountain, looked at the Japanese army with a telescope, shook his head unconsciously, and said: "The Japanese are bewitched by living such a hard life to die." ”

Jin Tongxuan said with a smile: "Or they are in Japan, and they can't even live this kind of life." ”

"At least there is no danger of dying." Qin Guosheng interjected.

The Japanese rear team did not stop, and a group came up, and saw that the place was nice and flat enough, and then saw that the Ikeda detachment was eating, and they also aroused their hunger, stopped, and solved the stomach problem.

The more and more Japanese troops were concentrated, Li Bai became happy, and said to Mo Di on the intercom: "The boss can't fight or not, it's enough!" ”

Mo Di said, "Wait a little longer. ”

Another wave of Japanese troops came up, and it seemed that it should be the middle army of the 40th Division, with 75 mountain artillery and baggage troops. Seeing that there were more and more people, the Ikeda detachment in front decided to give up their position, blew a few whistles, and prepared to set off.

Before the Ikeda detachment had taken a few steps, it heard a few muffled noises from the mountains on the right, the sound of explosions, and before the Japanese could figure out what was going on, a mudslide like a yellow dragon rushed down from the valley on the right, and soon a pond formed at the small exit in front of the barrier.

More and more water came down from the valley, and the water began to flow upwards when the water was not smooth, and some of the soldiers of Ikeda's detachment were pushed back by the water, and the already dense small flat land was even denser.

"That's it!" Mo said to Li Baicheng.

Li Baicheng shouted happily: "One test shot!" "More than 30 Qiwu Mountain shells flew over. Immediately after, three loud bangs sounded, and three huge shells were seen flying towards the Japanese gathering area at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.

"This is a 320mm mortar?" Mo Di asked, "It's really extraordinary." ”

Jin Tongxuan shook his head and said: "There is no accuracy at all, if you can point where to fight, it is almost the same, this kind of cannon is counted as a hit, unless it is like in front of you, so many people are crowded together for you to fight, and it will not be empty to hit anywhere." ”

Three rounds of artillery rang out, and Li Baicheng left the three 320 mortars to continue fighting, and the other cannons pulled away, and the raindrops fell on the hot barrels, emitting white smoke. He was not ready to ask for three mortar guns, and he would leave after firing the shells, and the Japanese army's mortar guns could be described as extremely heavy, and the 300-kilogram shells had to be hoisted to the mortar muzzle with a gun carriage, and then loosened and loaded, and fired manually, with a very slow rate of fire and cumbersome. The Kruber Hill Cannon has played three rounds, and this one has not yet played the second round.

Mo Enemy, who was on the top of the mountain, watched through the telescope as the shells fell into the crowd of Japanese soldiers, blowing up one explosion circle after another. If he didn't want to see the bombardment effect of the mortar artillery, he would also want to leave early, but the mortar was too attractive. The second round of firing of the mortar cannon made Mo Enemy laugh dumbly, this thing really has no crosshairs at all, and the landing point of the first round of shells has nothing to do with it at all, because the vibration itself during the launch process, the direction of the launch has changed, even if it is manually adjusted, it is only approximate. Looking at the third reload, the mortar cannon is being reloaded, and where the shells fired for the third time will fall, I am afraid that the gods may not know.

After watching the mortar cannon firing, Mo Enemy knew that this operation could be concluded.

Zhang Guangwei, who was also watching the excitement on the top of the opposite hill, did not think so, he thought that the time had come to take advantage, and saw a group of scattered Japanese troops running to his side, and without saying a word, the soldiers commanding two regiments outflanked him.

The task of the special mission is to cover the safe retreat of the artillery regiment of the artillery regiment, and the results of this battle are mainly created by the artillery regiment, and the artillery regiment cannot be allowed to suffer any losses. Leaving a few observers, Mo Di retreated with the guard company at the end, taking a platoon of brothers who operated the mortar cannon with him by the way. After exiting about a kilometer, retreat to Lingyun and Yan Seng Wu and the defense line, Ling Yun Shang and Yan Seng Wu were already ready and were waiting for a dry body. Observers from behind the palace caught up and said that the Japanese army had about an infantry brigade and was chasing the artillery regiment. Yan Seng Wu smiled: "It's just in time!" Ling Yunshang also said: "Tianzong, you retreat, leave it to me and Lao Yan here." After Mo Di said: "If you see it, you will accept it", he took the special service group to cover the artillery regiment and retreated, and soon heard dense gunfire behind him.

The artillery regiment is heavy and slow, and the road is slippery in the rain, so it is even more slippery in one step, and one step back. As soon as the artillery regiment arrived at Wangdian, Yan Shengwu's team caught up, and they were beaming, and it seemed that the results were good. When Mo Enemy asked, it turned out that the Japanese army saw that there was an ambush, threw down dozens of corpses, did not carry out any decent counterattack, and retreated. Liao Hanguo, the commander of the 516th Regiment who was traveling with him, said that he vaguely heard that behind the large Japanese army, dense gunfire sounded, and he didn't know which unit it was. Mo Di asked if it would be Zhang Guangwei's 84th Army, and Yan Shengwu said that Ling Yunshang also thought so and had bypassed reinforcements.

Not long after, Qin Guosheng told Mo that he had received a telegram that Zhang Guangwei had defeated a Japanese infantry brigade on the right side of the Japanese army, roughly eliminated a Japanese squadron, and had withdrawn from the battle after joining the regimental commander Ling Yunshang. It was not them who attacked behind the Japanese army, it should have been General Wang Zhanxu's 29th Group Army.
