20_20434The cadre was stunned when he heard Yang Zhen's words, but he was still a little unconvinced: "Political commissar, I heard that you are also a cadre from a college student, and you are still a top student of Peking University. You can go to the battlefield and kill devils, why can't we? You can be prepared to sacrifice at any time, why can't we? ”

Regarding this cadre's dissatisfaction, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "I have a special situation, and I can't compare with you." The situation then is not comparable to what it is now. When the river is crossed, I will let you get out of the army after proper training according to your situation, but not now. ”

"There are loyal bones everywhere in the green mountains, why bother to bury the bones. Now we have no way to march with the corpse, go and bury him with a few men. I thought of making a mark, so that in the future we have the opportunity to build the martyr's cemetery so that we can find it. After the burial, we set off immediately. Send someone to take care of his wife. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen looked at the military cadres around him and said, "Don't you want to avenge Comrade Ren Guang?" So good, let's start by executing the command now. Don't forget, although you are members of the military department, you are all soldiers. To be a good soldier, you must first learn to obey orders. Let's act, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. ”

When several people around heard Yang Zhen's order, they didn't dare to say anything, and several people dug a pit on the mountain beam on the spot and buried the person in it. The people here have just been buried, and Lee Myung-bak over there has also figured out what happened to the shot at the bottom of the mountain. A recruit of a search company of the 52nd Division under the mountain was a little nervous because he was on the battlefield for the first time, and his hand was always on the trigger, and the gun was not safed.

But he didn't expect that he just looked at the mountains on both sides, and didn't pay attention to his feet, and was thrown on his head by a piece of wood. When he fell, he involuntarily pulled the trigger of the official rifle in his hand that was not related to the safety and filled the bullet, and shot at the mountain beam to the east.

As a result, there was no target shot at all, but it was hit in the neck of Ren Guang, who was standing. This recruit, who has been captured for less than a month and has not fired a total of five bullets, I am afraid that he did not know that it was his foolish shot that caused China to lose a musician.

After the gunshots rang out, the officers of the 52nd Division who led the team evacuated in a hurry because they had already exposed their targets and were afraid that they would be surrounded and annihilated here. The recruit fell behind and was captured by Lee Myung-bak. If Yang Zhen hadn't stopped it, this unlucky recruit would have been killed by the excited military personnel at that time.

After confirming that those people under the mountain had left, Yang Zhen judged from the location of the distance from Xingtan and the surrounding shape that there should not be other enemies behind this enemy army. The bento immediately made a decision, and immediately seized the time to rush to Xingtan to meet the army commander with the personnel of the military department at the speed of a rapid march.

When Yang Zhen rushed to Xingtan with the military headquarters, the tense nerves that had been tense when he saw that they had already arrived relaxed slightly. Looking at the military personnel brought by Yang Zhen, the army commander breathed a sigh of relief: "Political commissar, you can be regarded as here." If I can't catch up, I'll have to send troops to find you. This is less than 10 kilometers of mountain road, and you have walked for more than four hours. ”

For the commander's greeting, Yang Zhen smiled indifferently. Although there were dangers along the way, it was nothing compared to the plane and cavalry chasing after he led the team to break through from Harbin. It's just that the difference is that there are more non-combatants with me.

At that time, it was even worse than the current form. There were many non-combatants this time, but the troops were still in a chaotic phase at that time. There was no food, no ammunition, and a lot of wounded. I don't even know which direction to go, and the surrounding enemy situation is even more black.

And this time, although there was only one guard company around the military headquarters, there were many non-combatants. But it's only a few miles away from the main force. If you make up your mind to send troops back, reinforcements will arrive within an hour. Moreover, most of the enemy forces are still far away, and at most they are harassed by small forces. And the shape shì at that time, almost worlds apart.

However, the shape was urgent, and Yang Zhen didn't care too much about talking to the commander about what happened during the march. After only a short greeting, Yang Zhen waved his hand and said to the commander: "Commander, how is the battle situation now?" Did our army take Xingtan? Now the shape is very unfavorable to us, and the seven divisions of the entire three theaters have pressed against us from all sides. ”

"If we can't take Xingtan for a long time, we will be surrounded by the three war zones in a narrow area on the west bank of the Hui River and east of the Piling Mountains. That is, we will be in a dead place. Faced by the enemy on the back of the abdomen, all the troops and firepower are at a disadvantage, and once we are encircled, we will basically have no possibility of breaking out of the encirclement as a formation. ”

Yang Zhen's words fell, and seeing a rare hint of urgency on Yang Zhen's face, the army commander said: "Political commissar, we have now taken down the entire Xingtan and suppressed the Xingtan defenders on several hills south of Xingtan, so it can be said that the passage to the east has been opened." However, the enemy forces holding south of Xingtan can block the passage with artillery fire. ”

"Several hills to the south of Xingtan are steep, and our army lacks experience in attacking mountainous areas, so there are heavy casualties in several assaults. Now it is holding on to it. However, the enemy forces in Sanxi tried to reinforce Xingtan several times, but we were all repulsed. In addition, the 1st Column is attacking in the direction of Sanxi, but the progress is not ideal. ”

"This 40th Division was originally adapted from the Lianghuai Tax Police Corps of the Ministry of Finance, and it turned out to be all American-style equipment. In the current few years of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, although the equipment and training have been severely damaged, they are not as good as the elite of the Central Army like the 52nd Division. But it is much better than the 144th Division and the New 7th Division.

"The battalion has heavy machine guns, 60 mortars, and the regiment has 82 mortars. Light machine guns are mainly Czech light machine guns. Basically, it can be done for each squad, and the ammunition is relatively sufficient. In addition, the division also had an eight-gun mountain artillery battalion, which was rare in other units. Although the mountain artillery battalion was blown up by us, they also had a company of anti-aircraft guns. There are four Italian-made 47 flat-fire guns. ”

"Even the following are all Belgian-made rifles and German Mauser rifles imported from the original factory, as well as some Chinese formal rifles. It is even equipped with some imported American-made hand-held machine guns. It's much better equipped than we are, and now it's in good ground. ”

"Although on the hill south of Xingtan, there is only one and a half battalions at present. However, they deployed two 82 mortars, three heavy machine guns, two 60-millimeter mortars and a 47 flat-fire gun. It occupies a favorable terrain from a high position, and can effectively block the passage from Xingtan to the outside world with only firepower. ”

After Yang Zhen looked at the map, he raised his head and said to the army commander: "Mountain attack, at least we can't fight it now." Even if it is defeated, the price paid is quite large. And now the other enemy forces around us are advancing extremely fast, and we don't have much time left. Every minute is precious to us right now. ”

"Our task now is not to completely eliminate or defeat the 40th Division, but to get out of the danger of being encircled. We can't afford to have a battalion and a half of enemy troops entangled here. As long as the passage is open, I don't think I need to take the hills to the south. ”

"Fire blockade, two mortars plus one battle defense gun, how much fire blockade capacity can there be? Light machine guns can't hit, and heavy machine guns have such a long range, even if they hit, the threat is equal to nothing. There is still no problem with us forcibly passing through the enemy's so-called fire blockade. ”

"Instead of paying heavy casualties and forcibly capturing these hills, it is better to let the troops in front not attack and hold him by force, and cover the main force to pass through the Xingtan quickly. It's nighttime, and although their long-range artillery fire can hit Xingtan, the accuracy is much worse. Even if we force our way through guò, we will have to pay a certain price, but it will be much smaller than the price paid for the strong attack. ”

"If the army commander thinks that these cannons on the hill to the south are too much of a threat to our army. It is better than this, the 90-millimeter mortar I brought with me is greater than the Chinese-made 82 mortar it is equipped with in terms of range and lethality. We concentrated our artillery at the military headquarters and the follow-up units when they were in guò, carried out fire cover, and engaged them in an artillery duel. Even if they can't knock out these cannons, at least they will have scruples and dare not go all out. ”

At the same time, he ordered the military headquarters and the directly subordinate team to cross the Hui River as quickly as possible. and urged Zhou Guisheng and Feng Dafei to speed up and quickly move closer to Xingtan. At the same time, a telegram was sent to a column not to continue to penetrate in the direction of Sanxi. Concentrate all the forces and advance to the front line of Donglintan and Laokengkou. ”

"When we approached from Piling to Xingtan, we encountered small units of the 52nd Division several times. It seems that the old three regiments on the front line of Bangshan are still too thin, and the number of enemy troops that can be contained is limited. In my opinion, since it is no longer meaningful to leave the old third regiment in place to block the attack, it is better to let it retreat along the road from the covered bridge to Sanxi and resist the attack of the 52nd Division step by step. ”

"The 52nd Division is the Central Army, although it is well-equipped, it is not good at night fighting, especially in the mountains, and its ability to fight at night is much worse than ours. This means that they won't attack aggressively tonight, and we can use the night battle to offset their equipment advantage. Letting the old third regiment fight to the death on the front line of Bangshan will not do us any good except to contain one of our regiments and weaken the strength of our army. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen paused and said: "Commander, now that Zhao Lingbo has rebelled, our army's original plan to directly penetrate the Jingde Tianmu Mountain through Maolin has been fully exposed. The enemy's 62nd Division, which had been transferred from western Zhejiang, was rushing to Jingde under the starry night, and could arrive by tomorrow evening at the latest. The route of our army south to Jingde has actually been blocked. ”

"I think so, after we cross the Hui River, is it a reversal. Instead of marching according to the original plan, he turned around and went directly to the north, passing through the Yejiakeng line and directly into the territory of Ningguo. In order to eat our troops in southern Anhui, the three theaters almost poured out of the nest. The 52nd Division, stationed in this direction, had all its main forces transferred eastward, and its rear defense was now extremely empty. ”

"The 52nd Division is in the air defense, and now it is an extremely rare opportunity for us. If we can seize the opportunity, twist all our troops into a powerful fist, concentrate our firepower and forces, and move to the northeast with all our strength, we can break out in the shortest possible time. ”
