333. Carry out a comprehensive reconnaissance
In order to ensure combat effectiveness, according to Bai Shujie's requirements, during the reorganization of the independent regiment, the reconnaissance platoon of each battalion must not be mixed with sand, and all must be veterans.
Wei Chong himself was a scout, so he naturally knew the stakes of the battalion reconnaissance platoon. Not only was it not mixed with sand, but the most elite veterans were selected to form a company, which was then arranged into three battalions.
In other words, these three reconnaissance platoons have two systems, which usually follow the actions of each battalion, but they can be gathered together to form a company at any time, and this company commander is Wei Chong himself!
When there is no task, it is Wei Chong who personally leads the team to train. In this regard, the Rehe Front Army has inherited the tradition of Bai Shujie, and military directors at all levels will personally lead a backbone team to pass on all their combat experience.
In the special squad and special platoon of that year, Bai Shujie was trained as a scout. Those men later became military chiefs at all levels, and they were also scouts.
Even if it is a division commander like Zhang Xiang, Hou Zide, and Lan Caiqin, the reconnaissance company in the guard battalion is personally led by them for training, which is also the reason why the scouts of the Weishenme Rehe Front Army are the most powerful.
After Li Xu's successive major operations, the reconnaissance company of the front army guard battalion suffered considerable losses. Moreover, the soldiers lost were the elite of the elite, so they naturally carried out many repairs and integrations. The composition of the fighters of the independent regiment is more complex, because the members are drawn from the four main divisions.
In the course of the three battalions' comprehensive training, Wei Chong led the newly established reconnaissance company to conduct systematic training in order to grasp the characteristics of each individual as soon as possible.
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and Bai Shujie finally couldn't breathe. Wei Chong was brought over at noon on this day, and some things had to be done simultaneously. Seeing Wei Chong coming in, he asked directly, "Wei Chong, how is the situation of the troops now?" ”
"Detachment leader, I was about to report to you." Wei Chong knew what Bai Shujie was anxious about, so he didn't beat around the bush: "In order to find out about Xu Erhei's situation, I talked with Cao Renhou many times before determining the direction of the investigation. At present, three reconnaissance platoons, a total of nine reconnaissance squads, have all been dispatched, and 12 directions have been reconnoitred at the same time. ”
This includes the military headquarters and 130th Division of the 53rd Army in Baoding, the 116th Division in Zhangjiakou, the 129th Division in Renqiu, and the 106th Division in Hejian. It's been four days now, and I'm sure there will be results soon. ”
Bai Shujie listened to the situation report, felt a little bit lower in his heart, pondered for a while, and then advised: "This time the situation is very unusual, fundamentally speaking, I am not willing to clash with the 53rd Army. Therefore, after the first strategic reconnaissance is over, it is necessary to immediately launch a tactical reconnaissance. ”
"I have emphasized tactical reconnaissance many times, first of all, it is necessary to find out the deployment of troops, weapons and equipment, and the rules of activities of the target; The second is to find out the possible reinforcements, as well as the speed of the reinforcements, the way they are traveling, and the places they pass; The third is the best position for reinforcements, the direction of the main attack, and the retreat route. ”
Wei Chong said with a murderous face: "Detachment leader, I will arrange haode for these contents, you just wait for the good news." Even if he Xu Erhei hides in the Jade Emperor's Nantian Gate, I will find a way to catch him! If anyone interferes with my actions, I will give him a good look. Even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, it can't stop me from destroying Xu Erhei's miscellaneous pieces! ”
Wei Chong was murderous, and Bai Shujie was not happy. Geng Fengbiao and the other 19 people are the bloody elites of the Rehe Front, if they are killed by the little devils, they will die as they deserve, and they will live forever! However, they were killed by a gang of bandits on their own land, that is, they did not look blind!
These bandits have no king's law and are a disaster to the world. The government turned a blind eye, and the localities co-opted to expand the shili. Social erosion and the collapse of discipline have led to the people's misery. For Bai Shujie and the others, no matter what these bandits can do in the future, what they do today is enough to cut them with a thousand knives!
The murder of anti-Japanese soldiers, even if a million reasons are found, must be paid with blood! The fighters of the Rehe Front are not to be insulted, this is not the end of talking. If you don't make an example, Bai Shujie feels sorry for the brothers who share life and death.
Recently, Bai Shujie has had nightmares every night. In just over half a month, the most elite fighters lost nearly 150 people!
As soon as he was a little bit more relaxed, those vivid faces kept flashing in his mind. Sometimes, Bai Shujie always felt that those brothers were standing in front of his bed covered in blood! Therefore, if this mouth does not come out, his soul will never be at peace!
The Tianjin garrison army of the little devil has now frightened the bow bird, and it is not realistic to find some trouble to take revenge. Besides, the two sides are still "doing deals" for the time being. For the sake of the long term, it doesn't hurt to get the deal done. Therefore, it is inevitable to take advantage of this gap to sweep away the bandits here.
According to Cao Renhou's introduction, Xu Erhei has leaned on the big tree of Zhao Dengyu. In this way, Bai Shujie will have to face Song Zheyuan's 29th Army. Judging from Song Zheyuan's titles of "Chairman of Chahar Province" and "Member of the Executive Yuan's Committee for the Consolidation of Government Affairs in Pingping", if it is not a good idea, it will still need to deal with Wan Fulin's 53rd Army.
Wan Fulin's 53rd Army was actually the Northeast Army that had fled. At the beginning, the young marshal of Xiao Liuzi issued an order to temporarily set up in the territory of Rehe, in order to straighten out the command system and specifically resist the little devils. As a result, as soon as Tang Yulin ran away, Wan Fulin also lied to him.
In later generations, many people said that Wan Fulin's department had a bloody battle with the little devil, and even the deputy division commander and regiment commander were killed in battle. And the actual situation is that 128 people from the little devil's tactical reconnaissance detachment entered Wan Fulin's 53rd Army garrison "Lingyuan", and the guard regiment surrendered to the enemy!
When the 128 people of the little devils found out about this situation, their confidence immediately swelled. Ordered the Wan Fulin Guard Regiment to continue to maintain law and order in Lingyuan, and then galloped all the way to the west, and the next day it "occupied" Chengde, and Rehe Province fell!
Wan Fulin later put all the blame on Tang Yulin, is this really the case?
According to the report submitted by Wan Fulin afterwards, we can see the truth of the matter: The 53rd Army has more than 30,000 people in seven divisions, and after three days of "bloody battle" with 128 people of the little devil reconnaissance detachment, it is said that the deputy division commander was killed in battle, and then forced to retreat into the pass.
And did not listen to the command, refused to stick to the Xifengkou fortress! Let the little devil then rush up a squadron to seize the Xifeng Pass and Shanhaiguan! If it weren't for Zhao Dengyu, commander of the 109th Brigade of the 29th Army of the Northwest Army, who led his troops to recapture it in a bloody battle, there would have been no "Great Wall War of Resistance" that later made people feel angry!
The most shameful scene in the history of the Chinese War was co-starred by Tang Yulin and Wan Fulin!
The entire 53rd Army was a hodgepodge, including seven divisions, including the 106th, 108th, 116th, 119th, 129th, 130th, and 2nd Cavalry Division. Of course, among the seven divisions at present, the largest number is only about 4,000, and the small number is less than 2,000.
No matter how you calculate it, now in terms of troops, Bai Shujie is definitely at an absolute disadvantage. But deep down, he decided to make a big move. Since you want to deter all parties, you need to be earth-shattering and let the world look sideways! He doesn't care what others say about him in the future, and does everything according to his own conscience.
To avenge his brothers, for his brothers to know and be at peace forever, he has not hesitated to poke a big hole in the sky. Even if it is pointed out by thousands of people in the future, it is not allowed between heaven and earth, he Bai Shujie will admit it!
Brother, it's not just a matter of talking with your mouth, it's a connection of flesh and blood, life and death!
After Wei Chong left, Bai Shujie recalled the "brilliant achievements" of the 53rd Army in his mind. I think that at the beginning, if it wasn't for Wan Fulin's 53rd Army losing Ling Yuan and Chaoyang and cutting off Bai Shujie's back road, he would not have given up Fuxin and seized Chifeng instead.
"I hope you don't mistake yourselves!" Bai Shujie stared at the map and muttered to himself: "Whether you are an ostrich or a turtle with a shrunken head, I hope that your 53rd Army will be safe." Although your Northeast Army started as bandits, the bandits that Lao Tzu wants to fight have nothing to do with you. If you are full and panicked, and you run out to fight unevenly, Lao Tzu doesn't care about teaching you a lesson! ”
Three days later, Wei Chong sent the first reconnaissance report.
Cao Renhou has already said in detail that the 129th Division is stationed on the front line of Renqiu and Hejian. The current reconnaissance situation shows that the 116th Division is stationed on the front line of Shijiazhuang, Zhengding, and Xin'an; The 130th Division was stationed in Baoding, guarding the headquarters of the 53rd Army. Several other divisions have already been transferred to the territory of Shaanxi.
Xu Erhei's "Rao'an (Raoyang, Anping) Joint Defense Headquarters" is located in Raoyang County, with 8 major departments, 3 brigades, 12 squadrons, 1 cavalry team and 1 detective team, with a total strength of more than 2,100 people. The subordinate personnel sold drugs, took drugs, gambled, looted, extorted money and goods to various villages, etc., and did all kinds of evil. Now Raoyang County and Anping County have become a miasma, and the common people are all complaining.
"Detachment leader, Xu Erhei is unpopular!" Wei Chong Zuihou said: "When our soldiers make up and reconnoitre, whenever they ask their fellow villagers and mention Xu Erhei, they always stick out two fingers and point to the ground, and then step on them vigorously with their feet. There is no doubt that the fellows here are eager to crush this crumb! ”
Bai Shujie stared at the map and asked, "What is the surrounding enemy situation, and is it likely to be dispatched?" ”
Wei Chong nodded and said: "According to preliminary reconnaissance, Zhao Dengyu's department has a cavalry battalion stationed in Shen County, and the battalion commander Li Guangdong and Xu Erhei are connected with Zhao Dengyu's division commander through him. In my judgment, this cavalry battalion should come out for reinforcements. ”
"Shen County is thirty kilometers south of Raoyang County, and the cavalry can arrive in an hour. If we attack Raoyang County, we will definitely deploy against Li Guangdong's cavalry battalion. Shimen (Shijiazhuang) in the west and the remaining troops of the 29th Army, as well as the 116th Division of the Northeast Army, are all factors to consider. ”
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
