662, the enemy is coming
After a series of severe crackdowns, the reconnaissance company secretly executed more than 300 people "strictly, severely, and quickly" and seized seven underground radio stations, Xiuyan County became a vacuum.
Zhao Baoyuan's entire army was annihilated, the news was not leaked, the enemy naturally did not change the password, and the urgent telegram in the palace was naturally received.
It turned out that the special and vulgar measures taken by the Rehe Front against the prisoners were not generally good, and this had been tempered and proved by countless experiences.
Zhao Baoyuan's guard company went through the baptism of the "three checks campaign" (checking identity, experience, and blood debts) to determine that these little girls under the age of 18 had no blood debts, and it was impossible for them to "insult women". Of course, there is no article on "insulting men" in the Seven Killings Order of the Rehe Front, so it is not included in the review.
In addition to three of them who belong to Zhao Baoyuan's "second wife, three grandmothers and four grandmothers" and need to undergo labor reform, the other five sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls have become members of Gao Xiulan's communication class.
It turned out that the two radio stations that Zhao Baoyuan contacted the outside world were still controlled by a special group composed of these five little girls. The task is to listen to the enemy's messages, which naturally includes various orders from the "receiving command".
Wu Xiangge, the commander of Xiuyan's defense and the commander of the reconnaissance company of the revenge battalion, received the order from Wang Dianzhong, and immediately laughed: "This is really fucking sleepy, and someone will send a pillow!" Someone, order the three platoon commanders of the reconnaissance company and the machine gun company to run to see Lao Tzu! ”
"Now that the opportunity has come, don't celebrate the New Year at home!" Wu Xiangge got straight to the point: "After I go back, let the soldiers put on Zhao Baoyuan's military uniform, and change their weapons and equipment." Then the radio was brought in, and the third platoon of the reconnaissance company continued to serve as a reconnaissance mission on the front line of Longwangmiao, and the third platoon of the machine gun company took up the reconnaissance mission on the front line of Dashiqiao and Yingkou. ”
"Remember, you are all now from the reconnaissance company of the first corps of the Anbong Garrison Command, in order to maintain the stability of the defense and ensure that the common people have a peaceful Spring Festival, according to the order of the captain of the Andong Garrison Brigade Tanabe Kenichi and the Anbong Garrison Command, a large-scale search is now being carried out on the entire territory. Get out of here and act quickly. ”
Now there is no need to hide and tuck, after the fighters of the reconnaissance platoon and the machine gun platoon have changed their costumes. With a stroke of his pen, Wu Xiangge transferred 64 of all the captured Czech light machine guns.
Each squad of 17 men was armed with 8 Czech light machine guns and 17 20-shot shell pistols. 8 of them were armed with machine guns, each carrying 8 magazines; The other nine men each carried a box of ammunition on their horses, and the other was a squad of food supplies.
A platoon is 32 light machine guns and 70 shell guns, which are fully capable of independent combat and can support long-term operations.
"I'm cāo, it's the first time I've seen such a luxurious reconnaissance company." Wu Xiangge looked at the two platoons and said: "Tomorrow is the Spring Festival, brothers should cheer up, beware of other forces infiltrating and taking advantage of the fire to rob." The battalion commander and deputy battalion commander have other tasks, and the safety of the entire Xiuyan County is on you. Now you can be unscrupulous, and the radio must be kept open at all times. Let's go! ”
Song Zulian, platoon commander of the third platoon of the reconnaissance company, and Wang Jizhou, deputy platoon commander, divided the route and led a radio station and two squads respectively to "sweep" their respective areas.
Among them, the platoon commander Song Zulian took the Longwang Temple as the center, expanded to the east to the Andong line, and expanded to the south to Gushan Town to the seaside.
Wang Jizhou, deputy platoon commander, took Taling Town as the center, expanded westward to the line of Taipingzhuang, went south to the seaside of Daying Town, and connected with Gushan Town of platoon commander Song Zulian to the east.
As a result, at noon the next day, on January 24, 1936 (Spring Festival), deputy platoon commander Wang Jizhou received a telegram from platoon commander Song Zulian:
"There are 47 people in a cavalry squad of devils, and we have already taken pictures in Majiadian, 18 kilometers southeast of Longwang Temple. According to the order of the company commander, do not alarm the enemy for the time being. But we are Xiuyan garrison troops, so after your department encounters them, you must take the initiative to greet them, saying that the security in Xiuyan is greatly good, so that Taijun can rest assured. ”
This news soon reached Chen Dazhu and it was already the next morning, that is, January 25, 1936. He immediately found out that this should not be the case, because tonight was the day when the "North Korean Supply Brigade" crossed the border, and Andong's garrison should come out.
"Hurry up and send a telegram to Wu Xiangge: Wang Jizhou's headquarters in the third platoon of the reconnaissance company immediately disengaged from this little devil, and is secretly monitoring the enemy's movements to see where they are going."
Chen Dazhu had already arrived in Daying Town last night, and after destroying all the members of the maintenance committee and some people with blood debts, his temporary headquarters was in the town, just blocking the passage between Andong and Dashiqiao.
Now that Anton's little devil has come out to reconnoitre, how should he take advantage of this opportunity? It was difficult for Chen Dazhu to make a decision for a while.
At noon, Wu Xiangge sent a telegram from Wang Jizhou: "The search team of the little devils stayed in the area of the chestnut house for lunch, and there is no intention of continuing to move west. ”
At about half past four in the afternoon, Wang Jizhou sent another telegram: "The Japanese army has arrived at the line of Anzishan, less than 20 kilometers away from Daying Town. However, he did not move on, and seemed to be preparing to return. At the moment, this group of enemies is already 120 kilometers away from Anton. How to dispose of it, please instruct. ”
At this time, Wu Xiangge sent an urgent telegram: "The third platoon of Pan Liuming of the machine gun company found a group of more than 300 little devils on the line of Liujiabao, 20 kilometers northwest of Hadabei Town. ”
"According to the current situation, it seems that the other party is going to enter Xiuyan Town. At present, the three platoons of the artillery company Fei are stationed in Lime Kiln Town, mainly to defend the west gate of Xiuyan Town, and there is no reinforcement for the time being. ”
Chen Dazhu knew at a glance that it was Iwata Wenwei who came over, and it was obvious that he didn't know that Xiuyan Town had changed masters. Now he is running headlong into it, just to block his way to "flee north".
"No wonder Anton's little devil came out to reconnoitre, it turned out to be the reinforcements invited by Iwata Wenwei, the king of the eight calves, ready to flank Lao Tzu?"
Chen Dazhu looked at the map for a while and found that Iwata Wenwei's current location was very bad: "Fuck, fifty kilometers north of this Wang Ba Lizi, is Lao Tzu's Qidong Lizi secret camp, where the North Korean supply brigade is hiding. No, you can't go to war there! If the enemy all reinforces in that direction, Lao Tzu will be finished! ”
The operator suddenly came over and said: "Report to the deputy battalion commander: the reconnaissance platoon's Shan Yanzhi urgent telegram, they found more than 260 people in the Yingkou Nakajima Dingfu Garrison Brigade that was advancing westward in Yujiabaozi, fifty kilometers northwest of us, and it is only fifteen kilometers away from Lime Kiln Town!" ”
Chen Dazhu was slightly shocked in his heart: "I'm cāo, more than 600 people came to the west at once, and they were attacking in two ways, this is to prepare for Lao Tzu's funeral?" The lime kiln has only one artillery platoon, and it will definitely not be able to block the onslaught of the little devil infantry, which is fucking more troublesome! ”
After five minutes of intense consideration, Chen Dazhu decided to break the cauldron and sink the boat: "Order: Shan Yanzhi's headquarters immediately launched an attack on the enemy in front of him, and after inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy, immediately retreat to the southwest of Taipingling, Laolongtou, and Maoling. After three hours, lead the enemy into the Yunshan ravine, and there must be no mistake! ”
"In addition, send a telegram to Wu Xiangge: Pan Liuming's machine gun platoon is secretly monitoring the enemy and not to clash. If the enemy turns around and heads south, they follow all the way. Wait until the enemy is in battle, and immediately attack from behind! ”
"The reconnaissance platoon of Song Zulian on the front line of the Dragon King Temple closely monitored the movements of Andong's enemy. If a large number of enemies advance westward, immediately launch a harassing attack from behind the enemy, disrupting the enemy's advance sequence and slowing down the enemy. ”
The telegraph operator went out to send a telegram, and Chen Dazhu immediately shouted: "The machine gun platoon is urgently assembled!" ”
"Brothers, the little devils in Yingkou and Dashiqiao have come out, and it seems that Anton's little devils will not be idle. However, we have a secret mission, and at the moment we are going to drag these little devils to the death, so that they have no energy to take care of other things. ”
"Yes, if all the little devils from the three sides rush over, we will have to face the attack of more than a thousand little devils. The mission is very dangerous, and no one can guarantee that they will be alive tomorrow. But as long as we can hold out until seven o'clock tomorrow morning, then victory! ”
"Because there were no roads for the next rapid march, the trucks were useless. Now I order: the machine gun platoon dismantles all the Type 92 heavy machine guns, and then puts them on horseback and transports them. The target of the march: Yunshan Gully, 50 kilometers to the northwest, was ordered to arrive in four hours, and immediately set up a defensive position. ”
Platoon commander Zhang Fengling led a squad responsible for four heavy machine guns to seize the Tiangu Mountain Heights, and deputy platoon commander An Yongshun led three squads to ambush on the south side of Yunshan Valley. As soon as the enemy enters the ambush circle, fire is immediately opened, and the heavy machine gun is responsible for suppressing the enemy's machine guns and grenadiers. Time is limited now, so hurry up and prepare and set off in half an hour. ”
Since ancient times, the military situation has been like fire, and the machine gun platoon has turned over and galloped away in less than a quarter of an hour. Veterans who have fought defensive battles and ambush battles understand that even one more second of time is decisive.
The reason why Chen Dazhu did not set off at the same time was because he had to wait for the artillery platoon that had sent the convoy to Taling to return. The four mortars were already the last mobile firepower in his hands, and they must be held tightly in his hands. In case of a mishap, using these four mortars can blow up a lifeline for the brothers.
Press this side to urgently dispatch and leave it at that.
It is said that after Shan Yanzhi's reconnaissance platoon received Chen Dazhu's order, Shan Yanzhi hurriedly discussed with his deputy platoon commander Teng Weiqiong: "Each of our squads has strengthened a crooked handle, and now there are four machine guns in one squad. But there are 70 of us, and we definitely can't go head-to-head with two or three hundred little devils. That's what I think, you think it's appropriate or not. ”
"The little devil is separated from us by a mountain beam, and I will lead two classes to play the first round, but you will draw two crooked handles for me. You led two squads to retreat four kilometers and rush to the monk's hat to build a defensive position. I'll draw the enemy over after I've got a magazine, and I'll give you four machine guns with good magazines. ”
"I led two squads to continue to retreat to Taipingling to build a position, and when you came, I left six machine guns with good magazines for Lao Tzu. In this way, the density of fire increases by 20% with each attack we block, making the little devils think that we are increasing our numbers. ”
Teng Weiqiong said with a smile: "This trick was used by the commander-in-chief to ambush the little devil in Orchid Ridge two years ago when he was interspersed. The ancients had no troops to increase their strength, and the commander-in-chief had no one to add guns. You can rest assured, when replenishing the brigade, Lao Tzu is familiar with this classic combat example, and he will definitely not make a mistake! ”
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
