766, thunder shook southern Liaoning
The patrol boat "Baimei" has a standard displacement of 30 tons and a full load displacement of 34 tons; The boat is 25 meters long, 3.65 meters wide, 1.6 meters draft, 120 horsepower, 13.2 knots, equipped with 3 crooked machine guns, and a fixed number of 20 people. Among them, there are 5 drivers and gangs, and 15 combatants.
According to the classification of the little devils, patrol boats are divided into "conventional engine boats" with a displacement of 6.5 tons and "large engine boats" with a displacement of 9.5 tons. And the "Baimei" with a displacement of 30 tons is already considered to be a "super large engine" class.
It was only about half past eight o'clock in the evening, and the personnel on the "Suncheon" and "Qinren" had just had dinner and had not rested. As the people on the patrol boat "Baimei" shouted that "Andong County has been attacked", almost everyone ran to the deck in a panic to inquire about the news.
The captain of the "Qinren Ship", Yamato on the right, Nakasa, ordered the searchlight to scan it, and saw that the guys on the patrol boat were all acquaintances who had seen it many times, and although they were now covered in blood, they could still recognize it. Besides, every time people came over in the past, they brought good things with them to "Missy", and the relationship was still good.
In order to find out what was going on, Yamato asked the "Baimei" patrol boat to help, and this decision finally sold the two warships completely!
The side of the river ship was not high above the water, and when the "Baimei" slowly approached, the "wounded" also helped each other to the foredeck.
At the moment when the personnel of the "Qinren Ship" were about to connect the cable, someone suddenly shouted: "Hit-"
Whoosh -- More than a dozen grenades came out of their hands and smashed into two groups at the "Qinren Ship" and the "Shuntian Ship."
When the red smoke rose, the rhythmic sound characteristic of the DW7.62 assault rifle also sounded, and countless screams were heard at the same time.
Puff puff puff -- many little devils were blinded by the smoke and their eyes were scurrying around, and as a result, they fell directly into the river, and some were "pushed into the river by bullets".
Someone in the darkness shouted: "Cover your towel and seize the warship!" β
Boom -- At this moment, in the direction of the Great Wall of Hushan on the north bank of the Yalu River, a loud bang was heard, and the sky-high flames turned the surface of the river red. The DW82L recoilless gun appeared on the battlefield for the first time, and with just one shell, it blew up the little devil's bunker into the sky.
Xia Luoshan's voice suddenly appeared on the water: "All board the ship and seize the battle position!" β
It turned out that the moment the "Baimei" launched its attack, Xia Luoshan and his 39-man technical soldiers had already jumped into the river and swam directly towards the warship.
According to the regular establishment, both the "Qinren Ship" and the "Suncheon Ship" should be: 1 captain, 1 deputy commander, 2 navigators, 1 chief engineer, 1 chief engineer, 1 chief engineer, 8 engineer operators, 4 engine maintenance teams, 8 damage management groups, 12 logistics support groups, 1 gun chief, 4 information and communication teams, 4 medical teams, and 40 combat groups, a total of 88 people.
But now there are only 40 people on each warship, and there are only 40 people on each warship. Because of the lack of gunnery officers and even less combat soldiers, they could only master the two warships and drive away, and the specific battle was not realistic.
Even if Pan Xiongfei brought his artillery platoon up, he would first have to overcome the problem of seasickness, and then he could talk about being familiar with the weapons and equipment on the ship, and the combat effectiveness would be zero for the time being.
Of course, if Pan Xiongfei hadn't had their artillery platoon coming up, Xia Luoshan would not have dared to sail. Although these fighters cannot use the weapons on the warship, their own assault rifles and recoilless guns can still prevent the enemy from boarding the ship.
Xia Luoshan boarded the "Qinren Ship", and what he was most worried about was that a few people from the little devil suddenly came and could take away the warship, so the first thing he was concerned about was that the combatants got on board to serve as guards: "The Baimei hurriedly landed on the north shore and took over the artillery platoon and machine gun platoon. β
After briefly inspecting the deck and bridge, Xia Luoshan gave an order: "All battle stations should immediately and comprehensively inspect the entire ship, and absolutely no part should be missed to prevent the enemy from hiding inside and causing sabotage." β
"The damage management team immediately inspected the safety of the warship, the turbine crew inspected the power equipment and fuel conditions, and the information and communications team immediately inspected the ship's communication equipment. Everyone else is in place, hurry up! β
"The engine is normal!" "The power generation equipment is normal!" "The propellers and rudder are normal!" "The ship's command system is normal!" "The ship's radio is normal!" "The bathymetry is normal!" "The rangefinder and heading meter are normal!" "Fuel consumption 10%, stock 25 tons!" "The anchor chain hinge is normal!" "Searchlights are normal!"
The "Baimei" adopted the method of forcibly overloading, and it also took six trips to send two machine gun platoons, one artillery platoon, and Pan Xiongfei, a total of 211 people, to the warship.
An hour had passed in the blink of an eye, and it was too dangerous for the warship to stop here, and an accident could happen at any moment.
So Xia Luoshan didn't dare to delay: "Now I order, the Qinren ship is the flagship, and the Suncheon is the frigate." The two ships anchored, the Baimei piloted, and the Shuntian ship followed closely behind the flagship. Target: Sinuiju, go! β
Press Xia Luoshan, here a group of "lay sailors" how to fool the warship without mentioning.
It is said that at eight o'clock in the evening of October 14, 1937, taking advantage of the turbulent opportunity when the Fourth Division of the Little Devil was preparing to leave Jinzhou, on a broad front of 450 kilometers from Suizhong County in the west, Panshan County in the east, and Andong County in the south, the four field divisions, one artillery division, and one aviation division of the Feilong Expeditionary Force, which had long been lurking, totaled more than 130,000 people, and launched an attack on the enemy in front of them at the same time!
There were four main targets for this attack: Jinzhou, Yingkou, Dalian, and Andong.
The enemy's main strength is more than 24,000 people in the Fourth Division of the regular army, more than 3,200 people in the four garrison brigades, and more than 2,000 other military and police personnel, totaling more than 30,000 people.
Bai Shujie broke through the cauldron and concentrated three times more troops than the enemy, not including more than 40,000 people from the two elite field divisions that pinned down the enemy, and launched the second war of annihilation against an integrated division in history.
For the more than 20,000 people who wiped out the Fourth Division, Bai Shujie was not worried. Because the little devils are preparing to board the ship, and then go to the customs to make a fortune.
In particular, the main part of Zhao Dayong's heavy artillery regiment was the Eighth Infantry Wing, which had the strongest combat effectiveness of the Fourth Division, that is, the defensive position from Taijitun in the west to Putuo Mountain in the east.
Bai Shujie had only one request for the 105th Heavy Artillery Regiment of the 91st Type of the Artillery Division: "As long as one shell can kill an enemy, then you will shoot a shell." Until the scouts in the forward positions think that the enemy is incapacitated, you can move the bombing target! β
So as soon as the battle began, Bai Shujie stayed next to the radio station. What he is concerned about now is the results of the battle at Xiaolingzi Airport and the four wharves in Jinzhou, Yingkou, Dalian, and Lushun.
If nothing is found in these places, then this campaign will be a failure, which will be quite detrimental to the future development of the Wyvern Expeditionary Force.
Let's start with Xiaolingzi Airport in the west of Jinzhou.
Because these are all precious items, not to mention that artillery is absolutely impossible to provide fire support, even ground attacking troops are not allowed to use grenades lightly, and the DW82L recoilless gun must be used with caution.
According to Bai Shujie's order, Wei Chong's 3,226 men of the Flying Dragon Fourth Division's machine gun regiment, under the command of regiment commander Liu Kuizhong and deputy regiment commander Kuang Laofu'er, had been concealed seven days in advance on the line of Yingzui Mountain-Huashan, 10 kilometers west of the airport.
This place was where Bai Shujie led the team to temporarily rest here after he replaced He Laosan in the fight. At that time, he didn't want to come here for no reason, but to see if the little devil built the airfield here according to the original historical process.
As a result, after coming here, Bai Shujie found that the land around Xiaolingzi had been expropriated, the people's crops had been bulldozed, and the barbed wire fences around had been pulled up.
If it weren't for today's blow, Bai Shujie would definitely not have let the little devil be safe and build an airfield here step by step.
The reconnaissance battalion of the headquarters, at that time Wei Chong was still the battalion commander, proposed several times to destroy this airfield that had not yet been built.
But Bai Shujie said something: "A little chick just came out of the eggshell, you pinched it to death, you can't eat it, and it's disgusting to watch." This kind of thankless thing is only a fool like you would do. Even if you want to use the chicks to drink, you have to wait for a while, isn't it good to wait for someone to raise the chicks a little bit? β
Later, I didn't feel at ease, Wei Chong, the bastard, would be in trouble if he came to cut first and then play, so Bai Shujie gave an order later: "You give Lao Tzu to get out and set up an armed escort company, and go to Hebei to harm others, don't bother Lao Tzu here!" β
At seven o'clock in the evening of the 14th, Liu Kuizhong, the commander of the machine gun regiment of the Fourth Division, had been standing under a big tree on the hillside, looking at the east with a telescope, but in fact he could not see anything.
Liu Kui thought about it and was still not sure, and said to Kuang Laofu'er, the deputy head of the regiment who was also restless next to him: "Lao Kuang, do you say that the little devils in the airport will fly the plane?" β
"I've seen planes in the sky, and I don't know what planes look like when they're lying on the ground." Kuang Laofu'er said with a wry smile: "Since the commander-in-chief said that the little devil's plane would not dare to fly at night, then he would definitely not dare to fly." I think it's almost time now, so let's take our time and wait until the cannon starts talking, and we'll attack immediately. β
"You're right!" Liu Kui nodded emphatically: "The heavy artillery in the north suddenly bombed in clusters, and the little devils in the airfield must have been panicked for a while, and that is the best time for us to attack." In this way, I attack the headquarters of the airfield, and you lead people to encircle and suppress the garrison brigade in the south, what is it? β
"Okay!" Kuang Laofu'er seemed to be doing nothing: "TongguΓ²'s reconnaissance in the past few days, the task of this garrison brigade is to guard this airport. There are only about 800 of them, so I can bring one battalion, and it is safer for you to bring three battalions. According to the commander-in-chief, at the first moment of the start of the battle, one battalion must immediately occupy the chicken coop at the airfield and ensure that the aircraft are not lost. β
Liu Kuizhong looked very heavy: "You can't break the jars and jars in a war, Lao Tzu has followed Zhang Er for so many years, this is the first time I have encountered this kind of thing." To be honest, I don't have any faith at all. As you said, use one battalion to protect the aircraft, one battalion to annihilate the pilots, and another battalion to clear the perimeter. You take a battalion to get the garrison brigade. β
Kuang Laofu'er finally knocked the dry tobacco pouch in his hand and pinned it to his waist, and then grabbed a DW7.62 light machine gun on the ground and said: "The commander-in-chief has said that the pilot of the little devil is only powerful in the plane, and before the plane flies, it is all slaughtered goods." What else do you think you're worried about? Okay, I'll take someone to go first, you guys follow behind, you're fine! β
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
