Chapter 052: Take a gamble
Outside the Headquarters Field Hospital.
Just when Wang Quanfa led more than 20 wounded soldiers to hold off the 1,000 or so men of the Yamazaki Brigade for nearly 20 minutes, and was about to be wiped out, the headquarters guard battalion finally arrived.
Hundreds of them rushed towards the Yamazaki Brigade like fierce tigers, which immediately made the little devils of the Yamazaki Brigade feel a chill.
In the panic, the damage was not small.
Yamazaki Jihei saw that these people were well equipped and had high morale, and knew that they were not easy to mess with, so he immediately turned his mind, opened the map and looked at it for a minute, found a place name, and then looked around, and finally brandished the command knife and ordered:
"Gentlemen, the time has come to make a contribution!
Fight and retreat, and defend the high ground to the west! ”
Then he commanded:
"Signal troops, quickly send a report to General Shinozuka to inform us that our army accidentally broke into the location of the enemy's field hospital, the strategic value is extremely great, and we cannot give up easily, and our army is about to hold on to Lijiapo. Request tactical guidance! ”
The reason why he gave this order was, of course, that he knew that he was alone, and even if he went all out to fight with the hundreds of newcomers and wipe them out, I am afraid it would be difficult to retreat from this place.
After all, since there is a field hospital, it must be the heart of the enemy, and a large number of enemy reinforcements are probably already on the way.
Now, if you don't seize the advantageous terrain, I'm afraid the end will only be the destruction of the whole army!
As a veteran general who has been on the battlefield for a long time, he knows very well that although the group of three or four hundred enemies in front of him is definitely not his opponent, it is extremely difficult for him to destroy them within two hours.
And at the moment, let alone delay for two hours, I'm afraid that even if you can't solve the opponent in one hour, reinforcements from the Eighth Route will come from all directions!
I have to say, this old devil's judgment is really fucking accurate.
At this moment, Division Commander Liu had ordered the 386th Regiment of the 772nd Brigade to approach here as quickly as possible.
Once the 772nd Regiment arrives, even if it can't wipe out this group of little devils in one fell swoop, it can buy time for other follow-up supporting troops.
His Yamazaki brigade is alone, and the baggage of ammunition and food is limited, and sooner or later he will die.
It can be said that he is now like an elephant that has broken into a porcelain shop, and the guy in the porcelain shop is entanglement with him with a knife, and once the reinforcements from the porcelain shop arrive with guns, this elephant will be dead even if it is rough and thick!
Now, his Yamazaki brigade looks very strong and can wreak havoc on the enemy, but he obviously can't escape, so his best option is to hold on until his reinforcements arrive, and save himself with Tarzan's overwhelming and irresistible strength.
……
The Yamazaki brigade chose to fight and retreat, and although the fighters of the guard battalion were high-spirited, they could not keep them, and watched each other go up the hill and began to be condescending, bringing heavy casualties to themselves.
In desperation, the commander of the guard battalion Tang could only order the soldiers to surround Li Jiapo, and then hurriedly reported to the deputy commander-in-chief.
……
At the headquarters of our army in Daxiawan, the deputy chief of the general staff walked into the headquarters with an angry face.
"Boss, things are clear."
"What's the situation?"
"A brigade of little devils suddenly appeared in the first line of the sky."
"What about the company deployed on the front line?
Why didn't you stop the enemy?
Didn't even fire a gun to warn? ”
The deputy commander-in-chief asked puzzled.
The deputy chief of the General Staff looked very ugly, sighed and said:
"The company commander said that he saw that there were too many enemies, and he was scared, so he ran away!"
"What?
Ran away?
It's a runaway without a fight!
This is a deserter! ”
The deputy commander-in-chief slapped the table and roared.
All the combat staff officers present were trembling with fear.
The last time the deputy commander-in-chief was so angry, it was when Li Yunlong disobeyed the military order.
"Go! Kill this company commander to Lao Tzu! ”
The deputy commander-in-chief said coldly.
"Okay, I'll go."
The deputy commander-in-chief also has a fire in his heart, he has been a commander for so many years, and it is the first time he has encountered such an outrageous thing.
"Wait, the commander of this company fled without a fight, what about his instructor?
Didn't you stand up and stop it? ”
"The previous instructor died in the last counter-sweep, and the new one is not in place yet. So ......"
"Okay. Go for it, no matter what the reason, this bastard should be shot if he runs away without a fight! ”
The deputy commander-in-chief sighed.
Now the team has expanded, but the quality of the cadres below is obviously not keeping up.
When the deputy chief of the general staff and Director Fu of the Political Department went to enforce the military law and came back, the commander of the guard battalion Tang rushed in in a hurry to report:
"Boss, the enemy has about a reorganized brigade with heavy machine guns, grenadiers, mortars, and plenty of ammunition.
After our battalion arrived, the enemy retreated to Lijiapo, which was not far away, and held on, condescending and occupying the upper hand.
Our army has no heavy weapons, and its numbers are far inferior to the enemy, and the attack on the back has failed, and now we can only besiege the enemy first! ”
"A brigade dares to come to Lao Tzu, it's really boring!"
Although the deputy commander-in-chief was very contemptuous on his lips, his face was still very solemn.
Now in his hands, there is such a guard battalion, and it seems that he can't help this enemy at all.
At this time, the Deputy Chief of the General Staff asked with concern:
"How's the situation in the field hospital? Is Dean Wang okay? ”
Our army is already short of medical personnel, and it can be said that all of them are treasures, and the loss of one will alarm the northern Shaanxi side.
"When the little devil tried to attack the field hospital, he was blocked by more than 20 wounded soldiers in the hospital and failed to cause casualties to the field hospital."
Camp Commander Tang admired himself.
With more than 20 wounded soldiers with only rifles and other light weapons, it was absolutely a miracle in the history of warfare to hold off a large group of enemies for nearly 20 minutes!
- Of course, for our army, there are many more miracles than this.
"Wounded soldiers? That's a good job!
Compared with the company commander who fled without a fight, these wounded soldiers are good soldiers of my Eighth Route Army!
Which unit are they from, and what are the casualties now? ”
The deputy commander-in-chief finally heard some good news and immediately asked with concern.
"Among the more than 20 people, fifteen of them are members of the special service company of the 386 Brigade Independent Regiment, and now there are only two people left who survive, and all the others have died."
Thinking of the tragic appearance of the corpses of the wounded soldiers at the entrance of the hospital just now, Battalion Commander Tang was a little panicked.
With a disabled body, doing such a brave thing really made him, a battle-hardened general, unable to hold back tears.
"The 386th Brigade Independent Regiment Special Service Company?
It's that Yang Yuanshan's person again!
This kid really has a good hand! ”
The deputy commander-in-chief praised.
During this time, the name Yang Yuanshan entered his ears from time to time, and he was already very impressed.
With some emotion, he immediately ordered:
"Please ask Dean Wang to do his best to treat these two wounded soldiers."
Then he picked up his hat and walked out:
"Let's go, let's go see what kind of powerful method these little devils are."
Seeing that he was going to risk his life, everyone hurriedly stopped him.
"Boss, don't make trouble for Camp Chief Tang, sit here with peace of mind, I'll help you take a look, okay?"
The Deputy Chief of the General Staff was very resolute.
"No, this little devil on the dog day has hit Lao Tzu's waist and eyes, if Lao Tzu doesn't go to take a look, can he still sit still?
Don't stop me today! ”
As soon as the deputy commander-in-chief pushed them away, he walked out, very domineering.
The crowd knew that his temper was coming up, so they had to follow.
……
The road from Daxiawan to Lijiapo is not far.
Ten minutes later, the deputy commander-in-chief hid behind a big rock and looked in the direction of Li Jiapo with a telescope.
And the deputy chief of the general staff and others all lay directly on the ground to avoid attracting the attention of the enemy.
"This old devil is a little capable!
As soon as they occupied the hillside, they chose these critical positions to place heavy machine guns. ”
The deputy commander-in-chief watched and admired.
After a long time, he asked Camp Commander Tang:
"Xiao Tang, didn't you say that the little devil still has a cannon? What about the cannon? ”
"The little devil brought two Type 92 infantry guns, and now I can't see it, I don't know where the little devil is hiding."
Battalion Commander Tang explained.
The deputy commander-in-chief looked at it for a while, and immediately ordered Battalion Commander Tang:
"Let the fighters of the guard battalion not rush to charge, the enemy is condescending, and there are so many heavy machine guns, you will suffer too much by charging directly.
Surround the enemy first and wait for our reinforcements to arrive. ”
……
Back at the headquarters, the deputy commander-in-chief stood on the map again and pondered, and only asked Division Commander Liu for a long time:
"Lao Liu, what do you think?
This gang of little devils, could it be that Kazuo Shinozuka, the old devil, deliberately threw out the bait to mobilize us? ”
As far as the deputy commander-in-chief is concerned, no matter how elite and difficult it is to fight, the little devil of this brigade will not look at him in his eyes.
He always thinks about the overall situation, it's the old guy in Jinyang City!
Division Commander Liu knew what the deputy commander-in-chief meant, and he was also pondering along the way, when he heard him ask, he immediately spoke slowly:
"I don't think it's impossible, so we can't mess around.
A brigade of little devils, one or two regiments will be solved.
Just now I called Xiao Chen and asked him to transfer the 772nd regiment, now I will call him again, and it should be enough for him to prepare another regiment as a reserve. ”
"Lao Liu, your idea coincides with mine!"
The deputy commander-in-chief laughed.
The deputy chief of the General Staff said worriedly:
"Wouldn't that be too risky?
A brigade of little devils, will definitely bring a radio, I'm afraid that the old devil Kazuo Shinozuka will soon be able to guess the location of our headquarters, and send a large army to meet the outside and the center blooms, or boss, you should move a little to the north? ”
"Hmph, there are all brigades and regiments of the 129th Division around us, and the little devils want to come over with a large army, and our troops are all sitting and watching the show?
If Lao Tzu doesn't leave, Lao Tzu will bet with him and a man in Shinozuka!
Let's see if his large army will surround him first, or Lao Tzu will eat his bait first! ”
The deputy commander-in-chief slapped the table domineeringly.
Now that he has made a decision, Division Commander Liu and the deputy chief of the general staff can only follow the order.
Division Commander Liu immediately went to call Brigade Commander Chen, asking him to immediately prepare a regimental reserve and drive to the headquarters.
