Chapter 317: The puppet army is also crazy
Since the combat effectiveness of the Fengtian Independent Brigade is not weak, it is naturally unwilling to be just cannon fodder.
Li Shoushan, who was kicked out of the command headquarters by Xiyiyi like a grandson last night and had no chance to participate in the rest of the military meeting, held his breath and spent the whole night thinking about how to play the prestige of the Fengtian Independent Brigade in this battle, so that Xiyiyi could take a good look at his Li Shoushan's military talent.
Some people say that the puppet army is a bastard who forgets his ancestors, how can he dare to fight with his own people with a cheeky face to win the favor of the master of the Japanese country? This is because people who hold this kind of thinking only look at the problem from their own standpoint, if they stand in their point of view, like Li Shoushan, who is an official, although they have forgotten their ancestors, they have also been ashamed, but after the shame, it has aroused another psychology in him, and he is even more hateful to his own people than the Japanese invaders, and it can even be said that it has reached an extreme pathology.
This is also the brutality of the big traitors in history after treating the captured members of the resistance group, and even the Japanese have to marvel at the tricks of the Chinese who surrendered to them.
For example, this Li Shoushan is the most famous traitor in the northeast region, from the September 18 incident to the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Chinese who died under his hands, from ordinary people to anti-Japanese soldiers, there are hundreds of people who have been documented. There were even atrocities of digging out the hearts of anti-Japanese fighters as wine and food.
As for ordinary puppet soldiers, first, they are forced by life, and second, they have been in the puppet army for a long time, and their psychology has also changed, and they do not feel that there is any harm in being a puppet army, but they live a better life than the Chinese people in the areas occupied by the Japanese army. With this terrible mentality, it is not surprising that they gradually became determined to die for the Japanese.
In fact, now the puppet army of the Mukden Independent Brigade has become a hardcore accomplice of the Japanese invaders, and they have long been just two devils wearing a Chinese skin.
The two devils, who were unwilling to be cannon fodder and wanted to show themselves, showed 12 points of strength at the beginning of the attack, and sent two companies of more than 300 people on the frontal position, eight heavy machine guns, and more than a dozen light machine guns, and even the eight infantry guns of the brigade artillery battalion sent six guns all the way down to 1,000 meters to provide fire support to the infantry.
The two flanks also sent two companies each, and in the first battle, the Mukden Independent Brigade dispatched two battalions of 1,000 men and horses, with a vigorous posture ready to attack the defense line in one fell swoop.
This is really not that Li Shoushan is eager to make meritorious service regardless of the life or death of the soldiers under his command, but from the equipment configuration on the surface, the Fengtian Independent Brigade is much stronger than the defenders of the Black Pot.
After a day of fierce fighting yesterday, although the Japanese army did not make any achievements, it basically destroyed the permanent firepower points of the 288th and 289th regiments with continuous fire testing and heavy artillery bombardment. And in terms of fire intensity, although the defenders on the top of the black pot are obviously more, whether it is heavy machine guns, light machine guns or even mortars, the positions on the top of the black pot cannot be compared with the positions of the other three Chinese.
Since yesterday afternoon, Xi Yiyi has already intended to use the black pot top as a breakthrough point, and it seems that all Chinese positions are within the range of heavy artillery bombardment, but in fact, the intensity of the artillery fire under the black pot top is greater. As soon as the artillery observers in the front saw the presence of a permanent fire point, they reported the bearing to the heavy artillery group in the rear.
Li Shoushan has reason to believe that the defenders of the black pot without heavy firepower have long been vulnerable, and his all-out attack this time is the last straw that crushes the camel.
Xi Yiyi and Li Shoushan are both veterans, and their judgment is quite correct. Qi Guangyuan and Dong Shengtang's two regiments were originally bitter, one regiment was only equipped with 3 heavy machine guns, and one company of light machine guns was only four, and the two old mountain guns were the most effective heavy firepower of their two regiments.
The firepower of these two regiments is really too high compared with the independent regiment, that is, compared with Li Shoushan's independent brigade, the two are also called the gap between Hanako and the state official.
It's just that Xiyi's small abacus was discovered at night when Liu Lang counted the battle losses during the day, and the losses on the top of the black pot were obviously much greater than those on the side of the independent regiment. Several heavy machine gun bunkers built with the help of the engineer platoon of the Independent Regiment were all lost, and three of the most valuable heavy machine guns were eventually blown up under the frantic siege of the Japanese grenadiers.
The intention of the Japanese to make small moves is obvious, so Liu Lang naturally will not see the friendly army unlucky. In fact, Qi Guangyuan and the others were unlucky, and the independent group was the biggest sufferer. The Japanese may let go of these two regiments that cannot hold their positions and disperse, but they will definitely not let go of the independent regiment.
Liu Lang was sure that before the name of the Independent Regiment was published in the newspapers, the Japanese army had already known about the existence of his Independent Regiment Liu Lang through domestic spies, and even knew that the destruction of the 4th Brigade was the handiwork of his Liu Lang. Because history has proven to what extent little Japan is scheming about China, since the 20s, all kinds of spies have entered the country, from the political, military, economic, and industrial 。。。。。 It can be said that the ghosts of the Wa Kingdom are everywhere.
The independent regiment that has been broken through on the flank will be surrounded by a heavy encirclement, and there will be no way back, and Liu Lang can imagine the consequences of a lone army of 2,000 people surrounded by tens of thousands of Japanese troops with his heels.
Therefore, last night, Liu Lang planted enough infantry mines on the top position of the black pot, as high as thousands. Even, in order to prevent the Japanese tank brigade from participating in the war, he also deliberately buried a few big guys in a flat place, which was an anti-tank mine designed by Liu Lang specifically for Grunov according to his own requirements, because there was no TNT, the weight of each anti-tank mine black powder reached 4 kilograms, which was enough to blow up the 11-ton small body of the main tank Type 89 medium tank currently equipped by the Japanese army.
This is all good, if the famous ultra-light tank that was successfully developed two years later and specially used in the Chinese and Southeast Asian battlefields and was "affectionately" called "Little Beanding" by the Chinese people touched the big man in this mine, it would directly make the cute Little Bean Ding enjoy the thrill of taking off.
Countless miniature bullet mines and anti-tank mines as big as basins were encountered by the yellow-skinned people who had the courage to express themselves, and the result, naturally, could not bear to look at them directly.
Compared with the little devil's first reaction when encountering infantry thunder is to lie down and find cover, the puppet army's performance is much worse, when more and more companions hold their feet and howl, the puppet army blows up the nest.
Is it forward or backward? The boundless fear has made them lose their judgment, and in fact, the moment they step into the minefield, they may step on a small bullet mine buried in the shallow soil, either forward or backward.
