386, Lan Caiqin shot
The construction of the three fortresses here at the Jade Emperor Peak is mainly to dig caves, supported by railroad rails and beams, and the top of the mountain is covered with three layers of logs, and then covered with a ten-meter-thick layer of soil. There is only one target, to be able to withstand the continuous bombardment of 500 kg aerial bombs, and the personnel inside will not be shocked to death!
The Jade Emperor Peak Fortress Group was defended by the artillery battalion of the 10th Regiment of the 3rd Division. The main defense of the enemy on the Jinzhou and Jinxi lines went north. At the same time, it provides fire support for the Daughter River Basin in the north to prevent the enemy from raiding the Nanpiao and Lingyuan lines through the complex terrain of the Daughter River Basin.
The Tashan Blocking Position, just 15 kilometers southeast of the Wolong Mountain Fortress, consists of three separate support positions. They are the "Gushantun Blocking Position" at the forefront in the east, the "Beichangling Type 41 to 75mm Mountain Artillery Position" in the north, and the "Tashan Position" in the southwest.
The defenders of the Tashan blocking field were the first company of the 10th Regiment Infantry Battalion of the 3rd Division of Lan Caiqin, and the three platoons each held a position. Because the defensive front was too long, the company did not have reserves.
This is what Weishenme Bai Shujie repeatedly emphasized: "If you can't stop the enemy, quickly retreat to the Jade Emperor Ding Fortress Group, and give Jinxi and Suizhong County to the little devils." ”
However, although Lan Caiqin is a female streamer like Zhao Jinxi and Gan Tong, the abacus in her heart did not follow Bai Shujie's way. Bai Shujie was pondering how to deal with the strange situation in front of him, and Lan Caiqin's second telegram arrived.
This telegram did not follow the name of the military, but changed the name: "Senior brother: I don't approve of easily ceding Jinxi County to little devils, we must make them pay the price of blood!" At present, I have ordered Liu Feipeng, the commander of the 10th Regiment, and Yu Jinghui, the deputy commander of the Tenth Regiment, to rush to the Tiger Pass Fortress and the Jiguan Mountain Fortress respectively to take command of the nearest command, and I myself have arrived at the top of the Jade Emperor. ”
"According to the information obtained by the reconnaissance company, the assembly place of the attack force of the 33rd Brigade of the Japanese Army was selected on the Luojiatun line, 15 kilometers east of the Tashan position. The two infantry brigades in the forward were divided into two routes, north and south, each equipped with two tanks. Among them, the enemy troops on the north road passed through Zhaojiagou and Wangjiatun, preparing to attack our backing mountain position; The Japanese troops on the southern route passed through Zhujiawa and prepared to attack our Tashan position. The battle is just around the corner, senior brother doesn't have to worry about it, although rest assured! ”
"It's just a mess!" According to the content of Lan Caiqin's telegram, Bai Shujie compared it on the combat map, and immediately knew what Lan Caiqin wanted to do!
It turned out that the assembly place of the attack force selected by the little devil was on the line of Dongqingbao-Luojiatun, which was the fundamental reason why Lan Caiqin personally went out! Because the 105mm heavy artillery fortress of Longquan Mountain is only 15 kilometers away from the Dongqingbao-Luojiatun line! It is equivalent to saying that the little devil put his attack force on the mouth of the cannon!
"This crazy girl is not afraid of big things!" Bai Shujie stared at the map and said hatefully: "No wonder she ordered Liu Feipeng and Yu Jinghui to rush to the frontline fortress, she must be afraid that after provoking the little devil, she will be retaliated by madness!" ”
Hearing Bai Shujie shutting in the office, Zhao Jinxi hurriedly ran over from next door and asked, "Who made you angry again, what are you yelling for?" ”
Bai Shujie threw the telegram in his hand to Zhao Jinxi's chest: "Look for yourself!" ”
Zhao Jinxi quickly glanced at the telegram, and immediately smiled: "What's this, doesn't Lan Caiqin just want to eat the two brigades of the 33rd Brigade?" Look at you in a hurry, what's the big deal about this? By my opinion, these two brigades are dead! The fortress cannon of Longquan Mountain must wait for the little devil to launch an attack and directly hit the enemy's rear road! Then on the front line of Gushantun and Tashan, use the fortress artillery of Wolong Mountain to carry out a devastating blow! ”
Bai Shujie shook his head: "According to my original idea, it's nothing to let the little devils successfully occupy Suizhong and Jinxi." If she hits like this, it is very likely that the Eighth Division in Jinzhou will also come out. If they press all the way to the front of the 10th Regiment, I fear that they will not be able to resist. Now the east and northeast of Fuxin are very serious, and we can't spare troops to support. ”
"I don't see it that way!" Zhao Jinxi walked to the front of the battle map and said: "Big brother, you see, Lan Caiqin actually learned your trick, using herself as a bait to attract the little devil's Eighth Division to the west, and relieve the pressure on Zhang Xiang's First Division on the front line of the Yixian-Yangshuling Fortress. In this way, Zhang Xiang's first division only had to concentrate on dealing with the enemy in Montenegro. The Guards Division can fight with all its might against the 4th Brigade of the Little Devil Independent Cavalry. ”
Bai Shujie said with a wry smile: "I don't know what this dead girl thinks, the problem is that her troops are all distributed in more than a dozen fortresses. Except for a guard battalion beside her, which was all women, and there were no other mobile units under her command. Say, am I worried? ”
No matter how worried Bai Shujie was, it would be useless, because the chariot had already started, and it would naturally go in the predetermined direction. After Lan Caiqin arrived at the Jade Emperor Peak Fortress, she called several officers of the fortress group overnight to hold an emergency meeting.
Deng Jinfa, commander of the artillery battalion of the 10th Regiment, Meng Kaihua, deputy battalion commander, Nie Mingyu, commander of the artillery command, Tong Xinzhe, commander of the first company, Ge Fengren, commander of the second company, Chang Ruizhi, commander of the third company, and Gu Haotian, commander of the signal platoon, naturally did not dare to slack off when they heard that the division was coming, and in less than an hour, they had already gathered at the headquarters of the Jade Emperor Fortress.
This is a large cave dug by hand, the middle hole is the office of the artillery battalion commander, deputy battalion commander and artillery commander, a large hole on the right hand side is the stock of artillery shells, and on the left hand side is a battalion for two months' provisions. That is, even if the little devils are besieged for two months, this artillery battalion is not in a hurry.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Lan Caiqin stared at the map on the table, and said without raising her head: "Deng Jinfa, tell me about the situation here." ”
"Report to the division commander: The enemy in Luojiatun is still preparing for battle, and the little devils of the two brigades have not yet come out. Tong Xinzhe, the commander of the first company, is currently commanding the Longquan Mountain Fortress, Ge Fengren, the commander of the second company, is in charge of Wohu Mountain, and the third company has always been the operator of the 150mm heavy artillery. However, considering that 150mm heavy artillery was not needed this time, the anti-aircraft platoon of three companies was concentrated, and Chang Ruizhi, the commander of the third company, served as the commander-in-chief, and prepared to attack enemy aircraft. ”
"What is the situation of the Tashan blocking position? How are the personnel arranged? ”
"At present, there are only two sentries on duty on the Gushantun position and the Tashan position, and the rest of the fighters are hiding in the anti-artillery holes behind the positions. The main alert on the battlefield is the North Changling Mountain Artillery Position. The four 4-in-1 75mm mountain guns were divided into two groups to monitor the enemy, and no matter which direction the enemy situation appeared, the mountain guns would immediately open fire. ”
Lan Caiqin then asked: "How is the communication between the various positions arranged, and will there be any communication interruptions during the battle?" ”
"Report to the Divisional Commander!" Gu Haotian, the platoon commander of the signal platoon, continued: "Longquan Mountain Fortress and Wolong Mountain Fortress have three telephones that are connected to the battalion headquarters, that is, the six telephones you see now, division commander. Our wires are buried in cracks in the rocks one meter deep underground, the cable trench is only five centimeters wide, and the three wires are separated to ensure that they will not be blown up. ”
Lan Caiqin nodded: "Are all the artillery sighters in place?" Are the strike areas all calibrated? ”
Artillery commander Nie Mingyu stood up and said: "At present, we have demarcated the bombing area of 300 to 1,000 meters around the Gushantun position and the Tashan position, and at the same time demarcated the bombing area of the Wujiatun line, which is five kilometers east of the Gushantun position, and the Liujiatun line, which is five kilometers east of the Tashan enemy position. It can not only directly provide artillery support to the blocking position, but also be able to strike at the enemy's follow-up troops. ”
When Lan Caiqin heard this, her eyes left the map, and then she raised her head to look at Nie Mingyu, the commander of the artillery command: "If I ask you, on the Luojiatun line, 15 kilometers east of the Longquan Mountain Fortress, can you hit the target?" ”
"We have reconnoitred these areas many times in the early stage, and the relevant coordinates are on the map." Nie Mingyu took two steps forward and pointed to the map and said, "Division commander, please see, the vertical and horizontal coordinate data on this is the azimuth between various places. With a simple calculation, the parameters of the shelling can be determined. However, the maximum firing range of the Type 92 105mm field cannon is 18.2 km, and if you want to hit the Luojiatun line, you need to shoot at a large elevation angle, and nothing else. ”
Lan Caiqin smiled and asked, "Have you calculated the dispersion law of the coverage area of the impact point of the Type 92 105mm heavy gun?" ”
Nie Mingyu straightened up: "Report to the division commander: The ultimate range dispersion law of the Type 92 105mm field cannon is a coverage area with a radius of 300 meters centered on the calculation point!" The dispersion pattern within 10 kilometers is a coverage area with a radius of 50 to 100 meters. ”
Lan Caiqin finally nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, after the meeting, you let the viewer calculate the first line of Luojiatun and Dongqingbao clearly, and the Longquan Mountain Fortress and the Crouching Tiger Mountain Fortress are ready for battle, ready to fight at any time!" The anti-aircraft company is in combat condition, pay attention to air defense tomorrow morning. I don't think the little devil will be out tonight. Meeting! ”
At about nine o'clock in the morning of March 5, 1935, Lan Caiqin, accompanied by the battalion commander Deng Jinfa, had just finished inspecting the three 150mm heavy artillery positions on the top of the Jade Emperor, and a dull roar was already heard in the sky.
"Enemy planes are coming! Deng Jinfa, you don't have to worry about me, hurry up and organize the air defense liliang to fight! Lan Caiqin immediately gave an order to her guard battalion: "The air defense company of the guard battalion is ready for all battles and ready to fight!" The communications company is at its post and ready to receive telegrams from the reconnaissance company at any time! The cannon battery is ready for battle and ready to reinforce the Tower Hill position at any time! ”
Maybe the little devil attached great importance to this raid, and there were nine planes at once! It's a pity that the little devil can't figure out what the situation is here, the nine planes are divided into three formations, one formation rushes to Jinxi County, and one formation hovers near the Tashan position. There was also a formation that flew directly to the west, which was supposed to bomb the empty county town of Suizhong.
Not long after, three enemy planes began to drop bombs on Jinxi County, and the other three enemy planes also began to bomb the Tashan position repeatedly.
Deng Jinfa saw Lan Caiqin holding a telescope to observe the movement of the enemy's plane, but he never spoke, so he was a little uncertain: "Division commander, do you want to fight?" ”
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
