852 The winter counteroffensive begins
Ruixue is not only a mega year.
Under certain conditions, it is also conducive to military warfare.
"This heavy snowfall is not only conducive to our winter counteroffensive operations, but also the drought situation in the northwest of Shanxi Province, which has been affected by the drought this year, can also be greatly alleviated.
It's a good thing, Lao Kong, this heavy snow has been waited for by you after all. ”
In the headquarters of the detachment, looking at the scene of goose feathers and heavy snow beginning to fall outside the window, Chief of Staff Xu Guoan sighed with emotion.
This heavy snow seems to be in line with the time of the day and Kong Jie's demands, as if he specially took this trip.
Although the soldiers don't engage in any personal myths, because of this heavy snowfall, everyone's admiration for the old regiment commander is really incomprehensible.
Political Commissar Li Wenjie also laughed and joked, "In ancient times, Zhuge borrowed the east wind, and now Kong Jie borrowed heavy snow, regiment leader, you are too powerful!" ”
Kong Jie scolded with a smile: "Wen Jie, this so-called thinking when you see a virtuous person, and introspecting when you see a bad person, Lao Xu's body has a lot of shining points, you don't want to learn, just like to wear a high hat for people, and let you learn it?" ”
Xu Guoan complained bitterly: "Lao Kong, what does this matter to me?" I was so wronged! ”
"This is the snow in the moon, not the snow in June, what are you wronging?" Kong Jie said with a smile.
"To get down to business, now that this heavy snow has also fallen, it's time for us to officially start this winter counteroffensive. For the sake of prudence, let's plan again and see if there are any flaws! ”
Under the leadership of Kong Jie, in the command of the detachment.
Kong Jie and the three of them once again entered the winter counteroffensive and the pre-war preparations and analysis work.
It's an old tradition of the team.
Combat should be fast, and preparations for war should be slow.
Before the battle officially breaks out, it is necessary to prepare everything as much as possible and take everything into account in order to ensure the maximum probability of victory after the battle begins.
On the 21st, it snowed heavily.
Large snowflakes began to fall on the entire land in the northwest of Shanxi Province from early morning, until the evening of the same day, and there was no intention of stopping.
The snowflakes that fell first spelled out the fragrance and jade damage, and also paved the way for the latecomers in advance, smoothing out the last temperature of the entire earth.
The subsequent snowflakes fell one after another, gradually piling up on the originally dark earth, wrapping it in a layer of silver.
On the 22nd, the original goose feather snow became a little smaller, turning into a sparse small snowflake, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the entire land in the northwest of Shanxi.
If you step on it, you can even get no knees in a place where the snow is so deep that you can't even get on your knees.
This heavy snow came suddenly, violently, and the scope of the enveloping was even broader, and the entire base area of the detachment, including a large number of surrounding Japanese-occupied areas, Tan County, Yangquan, Shouyang and other places, all became a world covered in silver.
"The learning situation has turned smaller, and it looks like it should stop soon, Lao Kong, you seem to be still waiting?"
In the command headquarters, Xu Guoan, who was studying the war on the military simulation sand table, spoke.
Kong Jie did not deny it: "The so-called snow is not cold, but the snow is cold."
I was waiting for the snow to stop, and as time went on, the impact on the Japanese army reached its maximum, and the snow itself was not too soft to make it easy to march on sleds.
I think tomorrow morning is the best time to act! ”
"By the way, all the troops participating in this winter counteroffensive are ready, right? I'm talking about the situation when fighting and at the same time keeping the warriors safe from the cold. ”
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Political Commissar Li Wenjie replied with a smile: "Rest assured, the regiment commander is all ready, according to the operational principle of this winter counteroffensive, no winter clothes will not participate in the battle, no snow combat equipment will not participate in the war, what we have built this time can be said to be a snow combat unit."
In addition, all the logistical work has been done in advance, and the comrades of the Workers' League are also involved.
The concealed logistics supply depot has already been built in advance along our scheduled march.
It can effectively guarantee the logistical supply of our participating troops at any time.
The health personnel accompanying the army are also ready and equipped with snow transport, so that if there is a wounded, they can be sent back to our nearest health center at any time.
In order to prepare for our winter counteroffensive, the research laboratory has prepared nearly a thousand doses of penicillin in advance, ready to use at any time. ”
"Then I'm relieved!" Kong Jie nodded.
Taiyuan City.
The Japanese army was stationed in the headquarters of the First Army in Shanxi.
The heavy snow cover this time is so widespread that even Taiyuan has been affected.
It's just that this Taiyuan is more than 100 kilometers away from Yangquan, so the snow here is much smaller than that in Yangquan.
Even so, the weather was bitterly cold.
Inside the headquarters of the First Army of the Devils.
The little devils are still not used to the Chinese clay kang, so they still use the traditional Japanese kotatsu for heating, that is, using processed pulp and paper to wrap the coal that is about to be extinguished, and then erect a foot stove and spread quilts on top.
That's probably what it means.
At this moment, some of the devil commander Yoshio Shinozuka who couldn't withstand the cold and the devil chief of staff Kitagawa gathered around the kotatsu while studying the battle map on the table.
A cold wind came in through the crack in the door and blew on Yoshio Shinozuka and Kitagawa, like a knife.
Beichuan hurriedly shouted: "Guards, close the door tighter!" ”
"Hey!"
Looking at the figure of the guards going to close the door, Beichuan sighed with emotion: "General, the winter here is much colder than in our country.
In particular, the Sanjin Dynasty is located in northern China, and there are many mountainous areas, and the weather is frighteningly cold every year in winter.
Not to mention the battle, in the case of insufficient heating conditions, our soldiers have to carry the cold to survive this winter.
When the winter is cold, even this war seems to be frozen, and the frequency of the Chinese army's battles against our Great Japanese Empire will be reduced to a minimum. ”
It is true that the little devils have launched spring sweeps, autumn sweeps, and even summer sweeps behind enemy lines.
But winter sweeps are rare.
Why?
It's too cold, huh?
Cen Shen of the Tang Dynasty described in a poem, "The snow is falling in the twilight, and the wind blows the red flag and does not turn over." ”
In the extremely cold weather, even the flag was completely frozen and could not be turned.
At this time, let alone a war, the soldiers on both sides did not kill half of the enemy, so they themselves froze to death in the snow first.
Yoshio Shinozuka said, "Yes!
But the Chinese have a good saying, heaven and earth are not kind, and all things are used as dogs.
Under this heavy snow and severe cold, our great Japanese empire needs to suffer, and so does their Chinese army.
In particular, the troops of the Eighth Route Army were located in remote mountainous villages, and the conditions were very poor, and I heard that they did not even have cotton clothes for the winter.
They lacked the means to protect themselves from the cold, and the cold was a nightmare for them. ”
Beichuan said with a smile: "What the general said is exact, so every year after winter, our army will especially strengthen the economic blockade and military blockade of the Eighth Route Army's base areas, including guerrilla areas.
What they want is to make them lack supplies for the winter, and it is best to freeze them to death and survive without bloodshed! ”
And will that be the case?
At this time, the devils occupied the area of Shouyang, Yangquan, Tan County and other county seats.
The Japanese field army stationed there, as well as the Japanese puppet army's security army troops, are huddled in their houses one by one to freeze because of the shortage of food and materials this year.
Toriyama Daiaki, the commander of the Japanese army stationed in Yangquan, shivered in the cold at the headquarters and complained about the bitter cold weather in China while scolding.
As for the devil soldiers at the bottom, they basically don't have any cold conditions.
In addition, since the beginning of this year, the devil's materials have been expensive, and even new winter clothes have not been issued.
I still wore old winter clothes that were issued a few years ago, and I had patched too much, barely keeping out the cold.
In the bitterly cold weather, the soldiers' faces were red from the cold, and the whole person was a little wilted.
Kawashima Shaozuo of the Yangquan Japanese Military Police is ruddy at the moment.
When the other devil officers and soldiers were so cold that their upper and lower teeth were fighting, he was fine, and his palms were so hot that he was sweating.
Why?
There is also a thick mink vest under the military uniform!
There is no need for any charcoal basin and kotatsu, and this condition is that the captain of the gendarmerie, Nanbu Toshio, cannot compare.
When others were shivering from the cold, the three brothers who were in the same stream, Kawashima, Miki Ichiro and Qian Dekai, were eating hot pot in a restaurant.
"Good boy, this year's winter is really cold!"
Qian Dekai, who took a bite of hot food, sighed.
Kawashima chimed in: "Who's to say it's not?
In addition, this year, our soldiers did not even have winter clothes, and in just these two days, many soldiers have frostbite on their ears.
I'm thinking about getting a batch of cotton hats for the soldiers! ”
"Anyway, no matter how cold it is on this day, others can't freeze us!" Miki Ichiro could see it and said happily.
Qian Dekai, who blinked his eyes, asked: "Kawashima-kun, if this is not the beginning of spring, I'm afraid we won't be able to continue the crusade against the Eighth Route Army, right?" ”
Kawashima nodded: "That's for sure, on such a cold day, it's good that our soldiers didn't freeze to death."
It is impossible to fight a war.
After this university, the gendarmerie has also received orders from above, and the focus of its work is to maintain law and order in the occupied areas, mainly defensive, suspend crusade operations, and hold out until the beginning of next spring. ”
"Aren't you afraid of a surprise attack on the Eighth Road?" Money has to ask.
Beichuan said: "On such a cold day, it is estimated that the cat is shivering in the mountains!" How can there be such idle time to sneak attack? ”
"That's it, come, drink!" Miki Ichiro on the side smiled and raised his glass.
……
The other side.
Early in the morning of the 23rd. The heavy snow has largely stopped.
Just last night, the regimental command of a detachment had already received an order from the command of the detachment:
At eight o'clock in the morning of the next day, the winter counteroffensive against the remote towns and strongholds of the Japanese army began.
The regimental units quickly moved into action.
The 3rd Independent Regiment was stationed.
Regiment commander Shen Quan has already assembled all the troops of the Third Independent Regiment to participate in the winter counteroffensive operation.
At this moment, he is making the final mobilization for the troops who will go to war.
In the cold weather, as the words came out, the heat bubbled out of the mouth of the sunken spring.
Looking at the neat and orderly elite soldiers of the Third Independent Regiment standing in front of him, Shen Quan shouted loudly: "Comrades, do you know what I thought of when I saw you standing here today, standing in this cold winter?
Just four words - a new look!
Why?
Seeing that our soldiers were standing neatly in front of them, everyone was wearing newly haired thick cotton clothes, cotton shoes with fleece, and full of equipment, all of them with ruddy faces like the eldest young master being served.
I just sighed!
What do you feel?
I sighed just a year or two ago, how could we soldiers have this condition at that time?
Not to mention cotton clothes, cotton pants and cotton shoes, there is a jacket with a sandwich, and the inside of the sandwich can be wrapped with a little hard cotton lumps, which is good.
As for the equipment all over the body, don't even think about it.
But it's the same difficult situation before, and the little devil we can still beat is screaming.
Now that our conditions are good, the equipment is available, and the winter clothes are abundant, we are holding guns, and when we are fighting in this cold winter, our palms are hot and sweating!
Comrades, let's talk about ourselves, such good conditions have been given to us, if we can't fight the devils ruthlessly, are we worthy of the materials that our troops have wasted on us? ”
"Can't, can't—"
The warriors roared, and the sound echoed through the valley.
Shen Quan nodded with satisfaction, then picked a young warrior in the team, and said with a smile: "Dog, what are you doing with such a happy smile?"
I see that you have a lot of things on your body, is it heavy? Don't crush yourself. ”
The little soldier who was named scratched his head and said with a smile: "Regiment commander, it's not heavy, I don't feel heavy at all, this is the weight calculated by our squad leader, and it will definitely not become a burden for us to fight." ”
"Then tell the big guy, what kind of equipment do you have on you?"
Goudanzi smirked: "I won't talk about the cotton clothes, cotton shoes, cotton pants, and cotton hats I wear, this operation, the squad leader issued me a 38 big gaier rifle, and 20 other bullets."
The squad leader said that I had only been in the team for half a year, so I was only given twenty bullets.
After one year of military service, I was given 60 rounds of ammunition according to the standard, and I was also issued with American-style semi-automatic rifles.
In addition, two grenades, a bayonet, a pair of sleds, and two energy bars issued by logistics, plus a small handful of candy, the squad leader said that eating two when it is too cold can replenish calories. ”
Shen Quan listened to it and said happily: "Listen, comrades, everyone listen, doesn't the tone of the dog seem to be in a hurry?"
You know, if this guy with this equipment was in the past, what would it be in our opinion?
I'll tell you, that's a big dog!
If it's a little devil, that's our favorite ambush.
Who made your kid rich? ”
The warriors burst into laughter.
"Okay, let's go!"
After the mobilization, the soldiers were full of excitement about fighting and killing the enemy, followed the regiment commander Shen Quan, and set off according to the established route.
Looking down from above, the entire team, the soldiers were wearing clothes deliberately camouflaged with white cloth, and nearly 2,000 elites moved on the snow, if they were far away, at first glance, it seemed to be one with the whole snow.
The baggage troops followed in the rear, and all the supplies were pulled by sleds.
With minimal friction in the snow, these supplies can be transported in the least amount of effort possible by human-powered sled vehicles adapted from the arsenal.
Almost at the same time.
The 1st and 2nd Independent Regiments, under the leadership of the commanders, quietly marched toward the target area in accordance with the established operational line.
The sky seemed to be drifting with a light snow, adding another three points of artistic conception to the operation of this winter counteroffensive......
