5.22 Fierce battles on the defense line

Changshu section of the defense line. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xie Wendong's independent 47th Brigade repelled 6 or 7 Japanese charges in a row this morning, and the corpses of the devils in front of the position had been stacked with a thick layer, but the little devils still rushed up in waves.

Xie Wendong just learned that the devil opposite him was the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army, originally he always thought that it was the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, so he couldn't understand why the Japanese army launched a strong attack on Wang Shankui's 139th Division while storming the 47th Independent Brigade, no matter how strong the 16th Division is, there is no need to make such a mistake of dispersing forces? Isn't this cheapening our 99th Army?

Now that he knew that it was the 3rd Division, there was a reasonable explanation for the desperate attack of these Japanese troops on the opposite side.

It's the old trick between Japanese generals again, and they're competing for merit!

But they chose the wrong object this time, the 99th Army is a hard stone, and it will definitely make these little devils bleed!

The 3rd Division originally thought that it would be able to take the position of the Independent 47th Brigade with just one assault, but Xie Wendong let these devils bleed in front of his position, and the commander of the 29th Brigade, Major General Kanichiro Ueno, was blinded on the spot when he saw the loss figures, he didn't expect that the 29th Brigade would lose more than 200 people in just one face, and he didn't even see the opponent's main position!

The second attack of the 3rd Division completely changed its course, Kanichiro Ueno moved out the tanks and artillery, and the Japanese planes in the sky tirelessly plowed the positions of the 47th Independent Brigade over and over again.

Xie Wendong's troops were not as elite as the 99th Division and the 139th Division, the two 99th Army, and there were many new recruits, so Xie Wendong, the brigade commander, could only take his officers everywhere to cheer up the officers and soldiers.

Relying on the lives of the three armed forces and the defense fortifications renovated by the German advisory group, the 47th Independent Brigade and the 3rd Division fought fiercely all morning, but they didn't let the little devils take advantage of anything.

Xie Wendong was resting in a command post at the front at the moment, the 7th attack of the Japanese army had just been thwarted by him ten minutes ago, and now the artillery of the little devil had begun to toss again, and it seemed that as soon as this round of shelling stopped, there would be an 8th attack.

"Dog's day! It's like taking medicine, and it won't stop for a second! The little devil is trying to drag us down! Captain Zhang! Inform all troops to hurry up and replace the reserves and let the troops on the positions withdraw and rest! Let's have a shift too! Let's see what new tricks the 3rd Division can have! “

"Yes! Travel! ”

Commander Zhang agreed and went to convey Xie Wendong's order, and now Xie Wendong's position belongs to the jurisdiction of their regiment, so the role of this microphone must of course be played by him, who is the head of the regiment.

Xie Wendong took out a cigarette from his jacket pocket, then knocked a few times on the bottom of the cigarette case with his fingers, took out a cigarette roll, and put it in his mouth.

Xie Wendong's army is different from Huang Haoran and Wang Shankui, and his army has a strict hierarchy, which is also the trick of leading troops that Xie Wendong has summed up over the years.

Xie Wendong's independent 47th Brigade only recognizes military ranks and does not recognize people, and middle-level officers are often transferred around by Xie Wendong, the advantage of this is that the soldiers are not accustomed to obeying the command of a few officers, and it is not easy for the people below to form a group, Xie Wendong knows that his foundation is not clean, if he allows his old subordinates to gather some forces, then Fan Jie and Shen Lao Er are likely to suspect that he still has the ambition of "rebellion".

In order to avoid suspicion, Xie Wendong chose this "self-clearing" method.

This is also a method of prevention most often adopted in the Central Army in order to prevent middle- and lower-level officers from colluding with each other, and the advantage of using this method of governing the army is that it is not easy for soldiers to have feelings for officers, and even if all middle-level officers are replaced at once, the troops will not face collapse, and the disadvantage of this method of managing the army is that it will make the officers and soldiers have no sense of belonging to the troops, and they all play the small abacus of being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day, and this combat effectiveness will naturally not be raised.

Xie Wendong's Independent 47th Brigade is better than other Central Army, that is, the officers and soldiers know that even if they are transferred back and forth, they will not leave the big collective of the 99th Army, so they know that they are all members of the 99th Army, and everyone's boss has only one --- that is Huang Haoran.

Therefore, Xie Wendong's method of governing the army can be regarded as giving full play to his strengths and avoiding weaknesses in the 99th Army......

There is another reason why Xie Wendong is such a low-key person, that is, he finally improved the relationship between himself, Shen Lao Er and Fan Jie, and he didn't want to create a gap between himself and the collective of the 99th Army.

Now his position in the 99th Army is fought back with the temporary 12th Brigade corpse mountain and sea of blood!

"Travel! The devil's chariot is up again! ”

Xie Wendong rolled the half-smoked cigarette on the wall and extinguished it, and then said to his subordinates:

"Panic what! It's not the first time I've seen it! Give me the artillery regiment, Shi Jincai, the miser, should also take care of me! ”

The phone was quickly connected, and Shi Jincai on the other end was still giving orders, and it seemed that all the positions were in charge of the artillery regiment for artillery support, and Shi Jincai's business was too busy.

"Hey! Head Shi, I'm Xie Wendong! ”

"Brigadier Xie! I'm not going to be polite to you anymore, just say what you have to say! I'm so busy here! ”

"Commander Shi, you can shoot a few shots in front of the position of my 2nd Regiment! The chariot of the little devil is coming up again, and it doesn't take much, just a cardinal number! “

"Brigade Commander Xie, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I don't lack this shell, but my cannon barrels are all red, and there are too many calls from various departments asking for artillery support, and I don't know how to answer them!"

"Commander Shi, you know that my independent 47th Brigade has a lot of recruits, and I haven't fought any battles, and I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm really worried about the little devil's chariot, and the recruits are afraid of the chariot rushing, so don't you worry that I lose my position and the military seat wants my head?"

"Brigade Commander Xie, I'll be honest with you, I really can't hit a base, if my cannon doesn't cool down, it will explode, and when my cannon is scrapped, see who you go to for help!"

"That's half a base! Count me Xie Wendong begging you, brother! I'll give credit to you artillerymen at the military seat when I go back! ”

"Don't, don't, don't! Take these words to deceive me, and you may not know how to scold me when you put down the phone in a while! I know what to expect! ”

Not long after Xie Wendong hung up the phone, a fierce artillery fire fell on the top of the devil's chariot, and the efficiency of this cannon is really high!

**********************************************

National Defense Line, 121st Division Wu Jianping.

The 16th Division suffered a loss from the 139th Division, so it began to plan to find a new breakthrough, and the 121st Division was not angry, and the little devil's squadron-sized temptation actually made Zhou Wenbin, the commander of the 660th Regiment, in a hurry, and almost lost even the fortifications at the front.

The 16th Division immediately realized that the defenders here were very different from the 139th Division, and the 33rd Wing of Kengo Noda immediately turned the spearhead to the defense area of the 121st Division.

Wing Commander Kengo Noda made it clear that he was taking advantage of your illness to kill you, and launched several large-scale offensives in a row in one go.

The 660th Regiment finally failed to withstand the repeated attacks of the devils, lost all the peripheral positions, and lost more than half of the regiment's losses to the main permanent fortification group of the defense line.

Zhou Wenbin was also unlucky, since this morning the 660th Regiment has not been attacked by devils, and in the entire area defended by the 121st Division, only Wei Xiling's 661st Regiment has had some devil soldiers in front of the position, Zhou Wenbin wanted to use this opportunity to encourage his officers, so he gathered all the officers above the platoon commander to the regiment headquarters for a meeting.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his conference began, the little devil knocked on the door, and the 660 regiment that had lost its command system was like a pot of ants, and the forward position was suddenly in turmoil.

Zhou Wenbin originally planned to restore the command system after withstanding this wave of attacks from the devils, but Noda Kengo Daisa's 33rd Wing swam over like a shark that has seen blood.

Fortunately, Chang Wenyi's 659th Regiment saw that something was wrong with Zhou Wenbin's 660th Regiment and sent a battalion of reinforcements to come to the rescue, otherwise the defense line of the 121st Division would have been buried in Zhou Wenbin's hands.

When division commander Wu Jianping learned that the rout of the 660th Regiment was actually caused by a ridiculous move by Zhou Wenbin, he was so angry that he almost fainted, and when his breathing was smoother, Wu Jianping immediately ordered the deputy division commander Mu Tingfang to rush forward with the reserves, and he must restore the position lost by Zhou Wenbin as soon as possible.

The gap between the 121st Division and the Japanese army is still relatively obvious, Mu Tingfang rushed several times with the reserves, but they were all beaten back by the 33rd Wing, Wu Jianping saw that there was nothing to do, so he had to order all units to hold the remaining positions and not let the Japanese army go further.

After half a day of fierce fighting, the 121st Division fought a stalemate with the 33rd Wing with the shame of the fortifications and officers and soldiers, and no one could help anyone......

As soon as the battle situation was stable, Wu Jianping called Huang Haoran to apologize, this Guizhou man felt sorry for Huang Haoran's kindness, and almost cried on the phone.

Huang Haoran was not surprised by the setback of the 121st Division, if any Chinese division could be on par with the Japanese army in a single month according to the training methods of the 99th Army, then it would be impossible for the Japanese to stay in China for so long.

The 121st Division was able to control the main position after making such a serious mistake, which was already very good, Huang Haoran's relief made Wu Jianping feel even more ashamed, Fan Jie couldn't help frowning when he watched Huang Haoran play "Harmony" with Wu Jianping on the phone.

In Fan Jie's eyes, the 121st Division is simply outrageous! Zhou Wenbin, the regiment commander, is naturally ridiculous to the extreme, Wu Jianping, the division commander, also has the responsibility of employing people improperly, even if the removal of these two people is considered light, Huang Haoran does not need to be so polite to the 121st Division!

It is better to take this opportunity to give the 121st Division a major change of blood, even if the Ministry of Military Affairs asks in the future, it will not be able to find any handle.

Huang Haoran put down the phone receiver and saw Fan Jie's murderous face, he knew that Chief of Staff Fan must be thinking about the 121st Division, the "outlier" in the 99th Army, and he decided to take this opportunity to have a good chat with Fan Jie.

"Chief of Staff Fan, don't pull a stinky face, I know what you have in mind! But I'm going to say you're wrong! We can't do that! ”

Fan Jie didn't understand why Huang Haoran became constrained at this time, didn't Huang Haoran even dare to dig into the corner of the tax police corps before? He felt that Huang Haoran must not be able to save this face, so Fan Jie decided to be this villain himself:

"Junzao, if you find it inconvenient, I might as well be the ...... of this wicked person."

"I knew you were going to think crookedly again, Chief of Staff Fan, it's not a question of who is the villain, the 121st Division can't move now! If it moves, the reputation of our 99th Army will stink! Think about it, how many troops have we swallowed along the way? Others are now afraid of us! I don't want to end up alone! ”

"Throne! What a great opportunity! Wu Jianping and Zhou Wenbin made mistakes in the front, the 121st Division is the Yunnan Army, and the Ministry of Military Affairs is justifiably assigned to our 99th Army, and it is reasonable to make some personnel adjustments now! Isn't it a common thing for the Central Army to swallow up local troops and strengthen themselves? Vice Chief Chen transferred such a local division to us, and his intention is already very obvious! ”

Huang Haoran was a little angry by what Fan Jie said, and he couldn't tell Fan Jie all the words in his heart truthfully, so he could only be angry:

"That's it! Chief of Staff Fan! There is no need to mention the matter of the 121st Division! Other central armies like to annex local troops, but I, Huang Haoran, don't do that! ”

Fan Jie knew that Huang Haoran was a principled person, and it would be difficult to give in once he decided on something, and Huang Haoran had also done a lot of seemingly illogical things over the years, but in the end he made a lot of money, so Fan Jie calmed down and obeyed Huang Haoran's intentions.

Huang Haoran also knew that Fan Jie was dedicated to his own good, and he didn't want to hurt the heart of this think tank, so he half-concealed and half-concealed some natural opportunities to Fan Jie in advance......

"Chief of Staff Fan, if we swallow the 121st Division now, I'm afraid that we will encounter resistance if we want to command the local troops in a while......"

Huang Haoran's half of the sentence made Fan Jie shocked, he had long known that Huang Haoran was not the kind of hypocritical character, and sure enough, Huang Haoran's extraordinarily tolerant of the 121st Division had far-reaching intentions......

"Throne! I was presumptuous just now! How much to offend ......"

"You know, I'm just this temper, not ...... to people."

In less than ten minutes, Huang Haoran sang two plays of "Harmony", but there are subtle differences between these two times......

*********************************************

Zhao Tiehammer walked through a twisted and twisted tunnel to the nearest exit of the tunnel, he said hello to the brothers guarding the place, and then pushed the flap and went up to the ground.

Ono and the others have not moved in place, and the flying bullets kept flying over Ono's head, and he felt that the back of his head had become cold, but he didn't dare to reach out and touch it.

Zhao Tiehammer jumped forward on the position, and a dazed machine gunner fired several rounds at him, but fortunately, the other party quickly recognized the military uniform on Zhao Tiehammer's body, and immediately stopped shooting after discovering that it was his own person, otherwise Zhao Tiehammer would have been listed on the list of dead.

Ono and Zhao Tiehammer discovered each other almost at the same time, the difference was that Zhao Tiehammer's eyes flashed with heat, while Ono's eyes were full of fear.

"Chinese! Are you here to kill us? ”

This is Ono's inner confession.

"Little devil! I'm going to capture you alive! ”

This is Zhao Tiezhu's mental activity.

Don't look at Zhao Tiezhu, there is only one person and a rifle, and there are several people on Ono's side, Zhao Tiehammer Wenwen has the upper hand in terms of momentum, after all, these Japanese soldiers in front of him have fallen into a desperate situation, and they are all a little deranged.

Zhao Tieshu picked up his rifle and pounced, and when he was about to approach Ono, he remembered that he hadn't loaded his bayonet yet!

Ono knew that if he kept lying on the ground like this, he would not be able to defeat this Chinese man who was screaming and pounced, so he gritted his teeth and stood up with his 38 big cover.

Miki Juncao's protection of Ono is too good, so this directly leads to Ono's assassination skills being relatively poor in the Japanese army, but now he is facing Zhao Tiehammer, a new recruit, and Ono still forces Zhao Tiehammer to be in a hurry very easily.

Zhao Tiehammer could only use the rifle without a bayonet as a stick, and barely blocked Ono's thrust.

The old soldier who changed the magazine also saw Zhao Tiehammer, who was clumsily wielding a rifle, and shouted in a hurry:

"When did this mallet slip out?!"

Hurry up and be in a hurry, this kind of bayonet has to rely on Zhao Tiehammer himself when it sees red.

Zhao Tiehammer's strength was very strong, and he quickly slashed the Mauser rifle into the wind, and Ono would suffer if he was directly hit.

After a few more rounds of fighting, the rifle in Ono's hand was smashed by Zhao Tiehammer, and he only felt a strong force in his hand, and the Type 38 rifle left his hand.

Watching the rifle fall to the ground, Ono remembered that there were bullets in the rifle!

That was the last lesson Miki Guncao gave him!

Ono actually held a loaded rifle and fought with the Chinese on the opposite side for more than a dozen rounds, and finally was knocked out by the opponent!

Ono feels like he can't forgive himself for his stupidity!

Zhao Tiehammer's Mauser rifle over there also broke because of too much force when it hit just now.

So Zhao Tiehammer rushed up with a rifle that had been turned into two and beat Xiao Ye wildly.

Seeing that Ono was beaten badly, the rest of the devils also pounced, and Zhao Tiehammer's comrades in the fortifications immediately opened fire, making it impossible for these devils to get close.

Soon, the diminutive Ono was subdued by Zhao Tiehammer and fell to the ground, and Zhao Tiehammer triumphantly winked at the brothers in the fortifications, showing off his achievements.

Suddenly, the sound of shells crossing the sky was heard in the sky, and the Japanese troops who had just retreated began a new round of shelling......

Zhao Tiezhu immediately dragged Ono and ran back, and the rest of the Japanese soldiers in Miki's group were in a hurry, regardless of the bullets of the Chinese army flying around them, they immediately got up and chased after them.

Zhao Tiehammer took out the bayonet on his waist and put it on Ono's neck, he dragged Ono back step by step, and several Japanese soldiers stood opposite them, following step by step.

I don't know why the machine guns in the surrounding fortifications didn't go off at this time.

Just when Zhao Tiehammer was a little at a loss, the flap at the exit of the tunnel was pushed open again, and an officer emerged from it, and said that it was indeed Japanese:

"Hayakku! Hurry up and come in! The cannonballs are coming down! ”

Zhao Tiehammer dragged Ono in, and the officers and soldiers who were already waiting in the tunnel tied Ono over, and the Japanese-speaking officer continued to shout at the mouth of the tunnel:

"Baga! Do you want to die? ”

Ono's companions looked at the cannonballs that had exploded all around, and the desire to survive overcame everything, so they dug into the tunnel.

Without exception, several people were quickly tied up, and the Japanese-speaking officer looked at these ghost soldiers with a little infiltration, and Ono looked at this guy who looked like his own compatriots in confusion.

"Mixi! You will be the fresh blood of my special high-tech! I'm your section leader! Colonel Sasaki! ”

It turned out that this Japanese-speaking officer was Sasaki, the "big day traitor leader" in the 99th Army. In order to find Japanese prisoners of war who were suitable to join the special high-tech department, he came to the front line, but he did not expect to harvest so many "raw materials" at once on the position of the 539th regiment.

Zhao Tiehammer also looked stupid! Why are there still Japanese in our troops?!

Who caught these radish heads?

Lao Tzu won't work in vain, will he?!
