Chapter 223: Stone Rock Mountain is in danger
The headquarters of the North Detachment of the Anti-Japanese Union Manchurian is located in Dashiqi Mountain, which is a mountain with few trees, but it is covered with rocks, and there is a mountain beam connected to it is Xiaoshiqi Mountain, which is lower than it and is also full of rocks.
This was originally a stronghold of Fang Tianzhu's commander and their anti-Japanese guerrillas in northern Manchuria, although the terrain was not very dangerous, but it was also easy to defend and difficult to attack, the key is that few people came to this place.
After the troops withdrew here, Yu Chengchan's independent detachment temporarily camped on a mountain not far from the big and small stone mountains, and the second and third teams directly entered the big and small stone mountains.
After these days of fighting and rushing, Yu Chenglong's detachment is already exhausted, especially Instructor Jin and several other women are exhausted.
When they arrived at the temporary camp, Yu Chenglong instructed the brothers to boil some hot water, let a few women wash first, and then arrange them into the first horse rack, so that they could go to rest quickly.
"You women go and rest first, and then let them call you when the meal is ready. I'm too tired, I'm so sorry to let you suffer the same as men, so let's rest. ”
Yu Chenglong guiltily expressed his mentality to Instructor Jin and several other women, saying that he would try to think carefully in the future battles, and would not let female comrades suffer like this again.
"Thank you for your attention! You're tired, your brothers are tired, you can go and rest for a while, we can take care of ourselves. ”
Instructor Jin was very grateful, she knew that Yu Chenglong would do what he said, but she said that lesbians were also members of the team and did not need special care, and Yu Chenglong did not refute it.
"If there is a need for a squeak, I try to meet it."
Yu Chengchan left after speaking. He was really tired, so he handed over everything to Zhang Daoxian's deputy detachment to do, and told him to arrange it as much as possible.
Yu Chenglong himself found a suitable place, simply built a horse rack, and then told the people around him that he should not wake him up when he ate, so he fell asleep with his clothes.
Most of the brothers were in camp, working while waiting for food. I was hoping for a good night's sleep after a full meal, but I didn't expect that an even more terrible battle was coming.
On the third day of the withdrawal to the headquarters of the North Manchurian detachment, the troops had not had time to rest properly, and the soldiers, of course, had not fully recovered from exhaustion.
Yu Chenglong and Jin Yunji received an order to go to the detachment headquarters for an emergency defense meeting. Yu Chenglong hurriedly made some simple arrangements, and rushed to the detachment headquarters for a meeting with Instructor Jin.
The atmosphere of the meeting was relatively tense, and even the great victory of the Jigongling ambush did not have time to sum up, so the first political commissar Qin Gang briefly explained the intention of the meeting, and then asked the commander Fang Tianzhu to immediately arrange the deployment of defensive tasks.
"Comrades, this Jigongling ambush has achieved brilliant results, destroying more than 300 enemy personnel and seizing a large number of weapons, ammunition and military supplies.
Commanders and combatants at all levels fought bravely and coordinated with each other, which was the foundation for the victory of this battle. In particular, the independent detachment made great contributions in the Jigongling ambush and was praised by the North Manchurian Provincial Party Committee.
Originally, we should have summed up this ambush battle and awarded the comrades for meritorious service, but due to the urgency of the situation, the devils were chasing the soldiers, so we could only wait for the commendation later.
According to reliable information, a brigade of the devils, the entire Jing'an Brigade, known as a team of 3,000 people, followed us and vowed to completely annihilate our North Manchurian detachment of the Anti-United Nations.
The Provincial Party Committee has instructed the Second Army and the Seventh Army, which are close to us, to come to our aid in order to disrupt the enemy's plan of encirclement and suppression.
But the situation we are facing is still very grim, one is that the enemy has more troops than us, and the weapons and equipment are better than ours, plus after the defeat of Jigongling, we are holding our breath in our hearts.
The second is that it has entered winter, which is not conducive to concealment, and our advantages cannot be brought into play; The third is that there are not many trees on the big and small rocky mountains where our detachment is located, and they are not dangerous, so it is difficult to defend;
The most important thing is not yet known from which direction the two armies that came to reinforce us will arrive and when they will arrive? The provincial party committee asked us to hold out for at least five days to accumulate experience in the positional defensive warfare carried out by the Anti-Japanese Federation.
All this has undoubtedly increased the difficulty of our defensive battle. In order to win this defensive battle, the detachment has drawn up a battle plan, which will be deployed by the chief of the general staff at a moment's notice, and Comrade Qin Gang, the first political commissar, will also put forward specific requirements.
I only emphasize three points here: First, we must strengthen our confidence in winning this battle, the devil is not so terrible, and the Jigongling ambush is the best proof of this. Second, it is necessary to resolutely carry out the orders of the general headquarters, coordinate and cooperate, be resourceful and flexible, and take victory in battle as the highest criterion.
The third is to prepare for retreat, and the retreat route will be decided according to the actual situation. Of course, it is best to retreat with reinforcements from the Second and Seventh Armies. ”
The commander of the detachment, Fang Tianzhu, had a serious expression and spoke first, and it could be seen that the situation was already very serious, otherwise the meeting would not have been held in such a hurry, and the leaders of the detachment would not have been so serious.
"According to the current situation, the detachment decided to withdraw the independent detachment to Xiaoshiqi Mountain and garrison it with the three brigades, and the second brigade to withdraw to Dashiqi Mountain and garrison it with the first brigade.
The independent detachment and the 2nd Brigade are to arrive at their designated positions by dusk tomorrow to build fortifications. The two mountains are in a horn and can coordinate with each other to defend.
There is only one mountain beam less than three zhang between the two mountains, which can communicate in time, and if necessary, the two mountains can be combined into one to jointly resist the enemy. ”
The Chief of the General Staff spread out the map and explained the tasks to everyone. Maps at this time are more precious, and they are usually put away in a backpack and unfolded when they are used, but they are also careful to be afraid of breaking them.
Everyone gathered around the map and looked at it carefully for a long time, and only after knowing it in their hearts did they get up, waiting for further instructions from the head of the detachment, and the first political commissar Qin Gang only officially spoke at this time.
"The task has been clear, we have to hold on here, fight a good positional battle, resist the enemy in front of the big and small stone mountains, and then break through and retreat if necessary.
Our team has just won a great victory in the Jigongling ambush, and its morale is at its peak. The enemy is also here to avenge the revenge of Jigongling, the two armies fight, the brave wins, we must educate our soldiers, kill the enemy bravely, not afraid of sacrifice.
There is nothing terrible about the little devil, the battle of Jigongling has confirmed this, the little devil and the Jing'an army were annihilated more than 300 people, and we only sacrificed 100 people, one for three, worth it!
Now that we have replenished our weapons, there is plenty of ammunition, and again we are defending our positions, the enemy will pay an even greater price.
The political commissars and instructors of all major brigades should make this point clear to their comrades, establish confidence in victory, and complete the tasks assigned by their superiors before the enemy is defeated in the big and small stone mountains!
In accordance with the needs of this defensive mission, the General Headquarters decided that Commander Fang would be responsible for the command of the blockade at Dashili Mountain, and that Chief of General Staff Yang would be in charge of the command of the blockade at Xiaoshili Mountain, and that I would take the headquarters to be responsible for coordination and liaison.
All major teams should act quickly in accordance with their arrangements, actively prepare for war, and strive to win this battle! The task is urgent, comrades quickly go back to implement it, and it must be deployed in place before dark tomorrow! ”
