174. Defend Chifeng

A crooked machine gun with no bullets is worse than a burning stick. Because the net weight of the crooked machine gun is 10.2 kilograms, that is, more than 20 catties. Unless it is a strong man with infinite strength, he can use this iron lump as an iron rod, and ordinary people can't take turns at all.

The little devil's crooked machine gun didn't have time to reload the bucket, and the horse rifle was nothing more than a single-shot short rifle, and there were only five rounds in one magazine. Hou Zide's two cavalry battalions charged in one round, and the two remaining squadrons with the little devil as the vanguard were completely finished. The cavalry battalion did not stop, and had already gone straight to the middle of the middle where Captain Sakata was and killed it!

At this point in the field, the old devil in Nakano is also poor in donkey skills, and he is at a loss. In order to be able to keep the seeds of the 26th Wing, he was forced to send a telegram to the commander of the 4th Brigade of the Independent Cavalry, Old Devil Motegi, asking for help "requesting tactical guidance", and at the same time giving orders to all units to "disperse and move in".

The so-called dispersed transfer is to let the troops under his command disperse and break through, and if they can run out, one will be counted as one.

The little devil is the most shameless, uh, should be the most shameless.

Because the Imperial Japanese Army was invincible, in order to maintain the dignity of the Imperial Japanese Army, "requests for reinforcements" could not be spoken, and they were all called "tactical guidance." Words like "breakout" and "retreat" are not in the dictionary of little devils, and they are all called "turn in"!

The little devils dispersed and transferred, and the entire army became a plate of scattered sand. The 26th Wing of the Independent Cavalry, which had once been terrified by the long-haired people, finally collapsed completely!

The old devil in Nakano sent a telegram and gave an order to Zuihou, and without sending any farewell telegram, he ordered the Guards Flag Guard to burn the flag of the wing. Then he pulled out his command knife and gave himself a guy to his heart. Now that time is urgent, the seppuku set is too troublesome.

The invincible captain of the Nakano Wing went to report to the old woman in Amaterasu.

The four cavalry battalions, including the special battalion, scattered in companies and pursued the escaped little devils everywhere, which does not need to be repeated.

After the old devil sent a telegram to the brigade commander asking for reinforcements, he didn't wait for the telegram from the brigade commander, so he hurriedly finished himself? Because the old devil Motegi had a clear order in advance, and the old devil Nakano didn't execute this order well, then there was only a dead end!

It is said that the old devil of the Motegi Brigade Commander is thoughtful and scheming. The real purpose of the 26th Wing that ordered the old ghost of Nakano to carry out the serial plan of "arrogant enemy", "luring the snake out of the hole" and "encircling the point to send reinforcements" was to seek to capture Chifeng City!

After the 26th Wing poured out, the old devil Motegi thought that the trick had succeeded, so he ordered the 25th Wing to leave a squadron to confuse the front Shina army, and then went out day and night, advancing in concealment, and finally arrived at Wulicha, about 10 kilometers northwest of Chifeng City, in the early morning of March 16, 1933.

At half past nine o'clock in the morning, six enemy planes flew over Chifeng City and began to circle, which was a deterrent method adopted on the basis of the experience of the previous time. Because last time, it was six planes that flickered like this, and the troops defending the city rolled up their covers and ran away!

Although he was later picked up by the devil Bai Shujie and captured an empty city, the planes of the Imperial Japanese Army were invincible!

It's a pity that the little devil rejoiced too early!

After the commander-in-chief left, Cao Fengxiang, the commander of the Chifeng City garrison, was naturally not idle, and several city gates were all first-level combat readiness. The Fourth Infantry Battalion of the three brigades stationed in the roe deer mountain in the west of the city has strengthened six heavy machine guns and nine mortars, and the west gate and the north gate are surrounded by water!

Deputy Commander-in-Chief Du Guangyuan was even more straightforward, and directly moved his bed to the city tower.

Because Cao Fengxiang commanded in the northwest, Du Guangyuan guarded the southeast city wall. The little devil's plane flew over from the southeast direction, and Du Guangyuan saw it with a telescope from a long distance, and immediately gave the order to the anti-aircraft machine gun groups in the southeast and northeast corners to prepare for battle.

The six planes of the little devil circled to the third circle, and the height of the city was already less than five hundred meters away!

Du Guangyuan turned out to be a deputy cavalry battalion commander under Zhang Haipeng. When Bai Shujie rescued Gadamerin, he was captured together with Zhang Haipeng. After being released by Bai Shujie, he took the initiative to break away from Zhang Haipeng and led most of his cavalry battalion to participate in the Youyan anti-Japanese detachment.

Later, the third brigade was formed, and Bai Shujie directly appointed Du Guangyuan as the captain of the brigade and became one of the three captains under Bai Shujie.

Du Guangyuan knew that Bai Shujie had "eight horses, four masters, and thirty-six Tiangangs" under him. When the third team was formed, Du Guangyuan never thought that he would jump three levels in a row and directly became the captain. With Bai Shujie's trust, deep in his heart, he handed over his life to Bai Shujie.

In the later battle to exterminate the big traitor Zhang Haipeng, he also participated in the bloody battle, and he was even more glad that he was able to leave this traitor team in time. Since then, he has been influenced by Bai Shujie, and he began to hate dwarf from the bottom of his bones.

Especially now that all the Northeast Army has a "countercurrent of defection to the enemy and treason", more than half of the Northeast Army surrendered to the little devils, and then turned their guns to slaughter their own people. As a result, there is now a saying in the three eastern provinces: "The Northeast Army in the past is a traitor army today." The young marshal did not resist and suffered the common people. ”

Therefore, Du Guangyuan was ashamed of the Northeast Army and vowed to wash away this shame of being suspected.

Hou Zide led the team to attack this time and handed him the heavy responsibility of guarding Chifeng City, and Du Guangyuan was even more like walking on thin ice, not daring to slack off a little. Because he knew deeply that once Chifeng was not guaranteed, Bai Shujie would be attacked by the north and south, and it was likely to be a catastrophe. For Bai Shujie's trust and confidant's kindness, Du Guangyuan gave himself up!

Now that the enemy plane is arrogant and arrogant, there is no one in sight, and Du Guangyuan naturally cannot endure this breath. However, to hit a snake and hit seven inches, it must be fatal with one blow!

Therefore, waiting until the moment when the enemy plane circled to the third circle, readjusted the dive angle, and was ready to drop the bomb, Du Guangyuan gave the order to fire!

Six anti-aircraft machine guns, forming crossfire from two angles, completely blocked the flight path of enemy aircraft.

Rumble!

The first enemy plane crashed headlong into the fire network and exploded in the air immediately! The second enemy plane also reacted quickly enough to pull up the nose of the plane desperately. What the little devil pilot didn't expect was that his own tail - the tail of the plane was knocked off, a typical carelessness! After a few fights, there was a close contact with the earth. With an earth-shattering explosion, it also followed in the footsteps of the first one!

The next four enemy planes immediately panicked, and their movements in the air were slightly larger, and the third and fourth enemy planes made a slight negligence, and as a result, they collided together, and suddenly broke out again with an earth-shattering explosion!

The people of the city witnessed all this with their own eyes, and the deputy commander-in-chief took out four planes of the little devil with one order!

The last time the little devil's plane came to bomb, the people of Chifeng City were killed by the bombing, and almost half of the city hung filial piety, and the whole city mourned. Today's commander-in-chief Du finally avenged everyone, and the whole city immediately cheered!

The remaining two enemy planes did not dare to stay any longer, so they dropped bombs outside the city and fled in confusion.

This scene of air battle was naturally seen by the old devil Motegi, who was hidden about ten kilometers northwest. Not only did he see it, but more than 3,000 little devils in the entire 25th Wing saw it!

"It seems that the people of China still have a strong force in Chifeng City, and they are not afraid of the planes of the Great Japanese Empire at all. It's almost impossible to succeed in a sneak attack! ”

This is the only conclusion that the old devil Motegi came to after watching the "wonderful air battle".

The enemy plane was shot away, and the results were brilliant. Six anti-aircraft machine guns, with an average of thirty rounds of ammunition, actually killed four planes of the little devil at once, and there were no casualties of their own!

There was such a miracle, and it was even more evil, to say that Du Guangyuan was not happy, it was nonsense. He was proud and happy, but he didn't get carried away!

"It seems that Commander-in-Chief Hou's worries have become a reality!" Du Guangyuan suppressed the joy in his heart, and his brain began to run nervously: "The little devil is storming the Great Wall Pass on the front line of Chengde, and we have to prevent our detachment leader from stabbing him in the back, it is impossible to be bored and send a few planes to Chifeng to show off his might." If it is not done well, there should be ground forces to cooperate with the operation! ”

That's how it happened!

Du Guangyuan was worried that the ground troops of the little devil would suddenly appear, so he used a telescope to observe the situation around Chifeng City. Unexpectedly, as soon as the telescope swept to the northwest, he saw an old devil with a telescope in his hand!

With more than 3,000 people, plus more than 3,000 war horses, this target could not be completely concealed in any case. Du Guangyuan roared: "Communicator, hurry down and inform Commander Cao that thousands of little devils are on the Wuli fork line twenty miles northwest of the city, and the whole city is ready to fight to prevent the little devils from raiding and robbing the city!" ”

After the messenger left, Du Guangyuan was still not at ease, and after explaining a few words to the air defense group, he hurriedly went down to the city and came to a remote area in the west of the city, where the four field guns of the Chifeng Garrison Headquarters were hidden.

"Brothers, the little devil has touched the vicinity of twenty miles west of the city. Hurry up and re-check the area according to the original demarcation. Once the battle is initiated, you are the zuihou who defend the war! ”

After inspecting the artillery position, Du Guangyuan found Cao Fengxiang, and the two of them divided labor. Cao Fengxiang was in charge of commanding the troops at the west and south gates, and Du Guangyuan was in charge of commanding the troops at the north and east gates.

Their side has just implemented the battle deployment, and the old devil Motegi can't bear it anymore. Two cavalry brigades, one to the north gate, and the other to the west gate.

Swing out of the assault formation at a distance of 500 meters from the city gate, take a slight break in horsepower, and launch the first charge!

The first company of the 4th Infantry Battalion of the three brigades was guarding the north gate, the second company was guarding the west gate, and the third company was in reserve. On the main positions at the north and west gates, four heavy machine guns and six 81 mortars, respectively, were placed. This main position was built in accordance with Bai Shujie's orders, and all of them were bunkers erected by railroad rails.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
