Chapter 14: Advanced (27)

Two months passed in a flash, in the novelty of Mo Di's pregnant wife. After applying to the school, Mo Di got permission to go home every Wednesday night, so every Wednesday, Doumu Lane was much more lively, and there was also an American Willis Jeep at the entrance of St. John's Christian Church. For this reason, Mo Di had to add a guest bed in the north room of Doumu Lane, because there was a driver to go back with him, and he rushed to Lijia Village early the next morning. Wu Tingjun persuaded Mo Di to learn to drive a car several times, and it would be a waste if he didn't know how to drive a car. Mo Di also wanted to learn several times, but in the end it was still not enough, not because Mo Di was stupid, he couldn't learn, but because Mo Di was too small, and he couldn't sit on the brakes in the driver's seat. If the left foot is clutched and the right foot is applied at the same time, the Colonel will completely disengage from the seat and control himself by hanging his hands on the steering wheel. Wu Tingjun also thought about moving the seat to the front, but the problem was that in this way, it was inconvenient for others to shrink their hands and feet from driving, so he had to give up. The driver is Wei Zude's person, who usually lives in Qifeng Town, and on Wednesday he is a special trip to Modi, and Modi does not waste manpower, so let the driver find farmers in Qifeng Town to buy some side dishes, enough to go back to eat a meal by himself, and Zhou Shiming will eat for two more days. The driver is very good at living, and every time he will buy some local goods in Qifeng Town, anyway, there is no enemy to pay for it, and he will not spend it in vain.

The battle on the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line was finally over, and sure enough, the Japanese army did not open up the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line, and the 34th Army in Nanchang was not at all the opponent of several armies in the Ninth Theater, but only passed through the first line of defense in Linchuan of Sun Du, and was immediately entangled by Xia Chuzhong and Ou Zhen. The west is gone, and the east is gone. Gu Zhutong commanded all units of the Third Theater to counterattack on all fronts, and the Japanese army retreated on all fronts. Except for the 70th Division that picked up a leak and blew up Lishui Airport, the rest were all restored to the situation before the war.

The reason why the whole battle dragged on for so long this time was because of the dispute at the peak, and Huang Jie and Yang Bin's invincible suggestion was quite impressive, dragging the main force of the 13th Army and gaining benefits in the rear of the Japanese army. However, there are also some people who reject this idea very much, believing that on the Chinese battlefield, it is necessary to respond to the battle on the defensive and take the initiative to attack, once it hits the hornet's nest, it will be a big trouble. Li Pinxian in the Dabie Mountains is in favor of attacking, the so-called cheap does not take advantage of the bastard, if you can take all the northern Anhui regions in one fell swoop, why not. The bosses of Lihuang all know that in Anhui north of the Yangtze River, there is only one Japanese 116th Division at the level of the Tun Army, because the Harada detachment has been withdrawn, the 116th Division's division headquarters in Chaohu is basically empty, and the strength of the Japanese combat brigades in Hefei and Anqing is less than half of what it is in peacetime, while the strength of Liu Zuoxin's division in Anqing and Shen Xiru's division in Hefei are limited, so there is no need to worry. Therefore, the Seventh Army and the 48th Army were all ready for battle, and as long as an order was given, they could attack on all fronts, with the Seventh Army responsible for taking Hefei and the 48th Army responsible for taking Anqing.

However, the endless infighting made the great fighters disappear invisibly, seeing the disbandment of the Harada detachment, the Japanese 116th Division returned to Chaohu Anqing and Hefei respectively, and the Harada detachment, which had experienced actual combat, greatly increased the strength of the 116th Division, and rose from the garrison level to the second-line main division in one fell swoop. Once the fighter plane is gone, it will not return, and Li Benyi reluctantly left Huangdun to return to the front of the store. This time for Anqing's combat preparations, Li Benyi spent a lot of manpower and special strength, but he did not earn any benefits. If the only thing to gain was a batch of American guns from above, twelve American M1919A4 machine guns. Originally, Li Benyi wanted to divide these machine guns equally among the regiments, but Liang Yisheng denied it, and set up a heavy machine gun company according to Liang Yisheng's suggestion to manage these weapons. The American M1919A4 water-cooled heavy machine gun is much lighter than the 49-kilogram Makqin water-cooled heavy machine gun, with a body of only 14 kilograms and a tripod bracket of only 6 kilograms, adding up to 20 kilograms, which is not as heavy as a Maxim tripod. The 7.62 caliber bullet used has an effective range of more than 1,000 meters, which is comparable to the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun using 7.7 caliber, and it is a pretty good weapon of mass destruction. After getting this big killer, Liang Yisheng was overjoyed, and he longed for it every day, hoping to do something.

The battle was not completed, but the post-war adjustments were underway. Because the 116th Division drew people this time, all the Japanese troops in Huayang Town, Wangjiang, and left less than one battalion of the Peace Founding Army, which was easily taken down by Shi Chongbu, who had been operating in the Wangjiang area. It was imperative to take Huayang Town, Wangjiang, and obtain a river-crossing wharf on the north bank of the Yangtze River, so it was imperative to set up a river-crossing management office. Li Pinxian transferred Wang Hanzhao, a senior staff officer around him, to Wangjiang as the county magistrate and concurrently the director of the river crossing management office. In order to solve the problem of how to carry out work in Wangjiang, Wang Hanzhao went to the Provincial Land Department to ask Director Jin Tongxuan for advice. Jin Tongxuan told him that the Wangjiang Security Corps had been re-established, which was directly under the county party headquarters and was under the leadership of the Anhui Security Command. The security regiment was established on the basis of the Shizhong camp, and it was best for the regiment commander to be served by Shizhong, because in this place, no one else could play except Shizhong. Wang Hanzhao put Jin Tongxuan's proposal as a condition to the Anhui Provincial Government and the Security Command, and Master Li Pinxian agreed without saying a word. As a result, Shi Chong broke away from the 48th Army Field Supplement Regiment and was promoted to the colonel of the Wangjiang Security Regiment, with three main battalions under his command, the battalion commanders were Zhang Shenghu, Zhao Sheng'an and Liu Wukui. Huang Yingyi did not follow Shi Zhong to stay in Wangjiang, but returned to the military headquarters of the 48th Army in Shengoupu as an operational staff officer. On 12 August, Major General Wei Yongcheng, director of the Political Department of the 21 st Group Army, came forward to transfer Huang Yingyi to the Political Department of the Lihuang Group Army. On 15 July, Huang Yingyi arrived in Lihuang, but as soon as he entered the office, he received an official notice to go to Chongqing, Sichuan, to attend the special training class of the Central Military Academy, and he was limited to report for duty before 1 September. Huang Yingyi graduated from the Infantry Section of the 11th Corps of the 16th Phase of the Sixth Branch of the Central Military Academy, and his starting point is not low.

Mo Di was very happy that his subordinates and brothers were promoted, and Shi Chong was able to find a place in Wangjiang, although it was a good thing that he was transferred to the security forces. The field repair regiment that lost the Shizhong Department was closer to a regular main regiment, and its flexibility was greatly reduced. Sooner or later, the field supplement group that has lost its flexibility will follow the old path of other field supplement groups. Luo Wei, Ouyang Jin is not a person who is particularly good at flexible combat, and the chief of staff Hou Quan is no longer the thin monkey of the year, what will become of the thin monkey after systematic learning, Mo Di dare not imagine.

These are no longer things that you should consider, not in your position and not in your politics, the top priority is to read good books, raise a good wife and give birth to good cubs, and live a leisurely and comfortable life.

If you want to live a leisurely and good life, you have to agree with the Japanese, although the Japanese have not yet visited Guilin, the Japanese planes are flying over Guilin every once in a while. This day was Friday, and at noon, the Sixth Branch of the Central Military Academy was notified that all teachers and students rushed to Ertang on South Road. The Ertang airfield was bombed by Japanese planes, and it was basically paralyzed, the runway was completely blown up, all the flight facilities were blown up, and even the pilot's quarters were not spared.

There are two airports in Guilin, one is the Yangtang Airport on the West Road at the foot of Jigong Mountain, which is the airport with the most complete facilities and the best flight conditions in Guilin, built in the 24th year of the Republic of China (1935), at the beginning of the year, because of the entry of the Chennault Flying Tigers, the focus of the Japanese aircraft bombing was attracted here, after three months of bombing, the Yangtang Airport was basically scrapped and entered a comprehensive renovation. After the Yangtang Airport was deactivated, all aviation tasks were transferred to the Ertang Airport on the side of the Baba Mountain on the South Road. Ertang Airport is a civil airport, which was built by the Guangxi Provincial Government to assist the Guangdong Provincial Government in piloting the civil aviation industry. Due to the lack of funds, construction began in 1929 and was not initially completed and put into use until 1936. The airport covers an area of 50.4 hectares and has a runway with a 2,000-meter long, 75-meter-wide and 0.6-meter-thick gravel pavement in a north-south direction and a taxiway 1,800 meters long, 15 meters wide and 0.6 meters thick. There are 5 machine nests, 1 oil depot (using the natural cave of Baba Mountain), aprons, houses, roads and simple drainage works.

The Chennault Flying Tigers transferred back and forth between Yangtang Airport and Ertang Airport, using Yangtang Airport for repairing Ertang Airport and Ertang Airport for repairing Yangtang Airport. Therefore, the third plan began to be introduced, to build a third airport in Lijia Village, to take advantage of the natural geographical advantages of Qifeng Town, to set up anti-aircraft machine guns on the top of the mountain with high clouds to form an air defense network, to expand the machine nest and related facilities in the natural cave, to drive out a runway in the shortest possible time, so that the Flying Tigers can return to the blue sky.

The job of the Mo Enemy is to move the items that are still barely formed in Ertang Airport to Lijia Village, and tinkering will come in handy.

Fortunately, Lijia Village is not far from Baba Mountain, Bali Road, a half-day back and forth, moved once on Friday, moved twice on Saturday, and the military academy announced a weekly holiday.

Changing out of sweaty clothes, a group of men* washed naked in the bathhouse, changed into clean military uniforms, and Mo Di and the other three sat in the jeep driven by Wu Tingjun, and a gust of wind galloped towards Guilin City.

Along the way, there were traces of the bombing of the plane, half-collapsed buildings, broken branches, and people howling at the mouth of the tile kiln, and it was estimated that the plane had killed people. After passing Nanxi Mountain, I saw that there were soldiers guarding the card, and civilian cars could not enter, because the road surface of Zhongshan South Road was being repaired. Seeing the military jeep sitting on the three of Mo Enemy, the sentry hesitated for a moment, and when he saw the colonel faction that Wu Tingjun took out, he moved the fence and let the jeep drive in.

"This loss is not small." Wu Zhongjian said: "Not only the airport, but also the city. ”

"Guilin is often bombed, but the intensity is limited, the elements of destruction are few, and the elements of warning and deterrence are large, and such intensity is rare." Wu Tingjun said: "It is estimated that the Flying Tigers have caused pain to the Japanese, and the plane that took off from Guilin poses a great threat to the Japanese army in Shaoguan. ”

"There are two sides to everything, the Flying Tigers bring victory, and they also bring strong opponents." Mo Di said: "Our air defense capability is really poor, and the Japanese planes are like no one. If you can fight a few fights, at least you can make the other party have some scruples. My unit was in Qianshan Sanqiao, and once shot down Japanese planes, and the planes were not difficult to fight, and there was a little skill, if there was a machine gun fired at it, it was similar to shooting birds. ”

The car dropped at the entrance of St. John's Church, turned around and left.

Sending Wu Tingjun and Wu Zhongjian away, Mo Di walked towards Doumu Alley.

saw an iron lock at the door, Mo Di knew that Zhou Shiming was not at home, so he took out the key and opened the door, well, it was that familiar smell. I bolted the door, walked into the yard, and as soon as I put down my luggage, I heard the sound of a brass bell at the door. Mo Di smiled, it won't be someone else, it will be Zhou Shiming, this place, others rarely come.

When he walked to the door and opened the door, he was surprised to find that it was not Zhou Shiming, but a woman in her thirties, with a delicate face and a vegetable face. When the woman saw Mo Di, she asked, "Is it Mo Di Si Please?" ”

Mo Di nodded, and before he could speak, he heard the woman say anxiously: "Come with me, your wife has an accident." ”
