Chapter 363: Checking the Terrain
When the two female soldiers were sent to rest, Yang Zhen looked at the guard platoon commander who had suffered a lot of hardships when he was scratched, and said with a smile: "How about it, catch them and suffer a lot." Look at your face like a cat. Why don't you get some medicine, don't get infected. β
The guard platoon commander said with a bitter face: "No. 1, these are two women, it's just two tigresses." We were all pressed to the ground, and we even kicked and scratched. If it weren't for the fact that they were weak and ran out of strength before they could last long, I don't know how much more I would have to add to my face. β
"I also realized from their shouting that they were women, and they didn't dare to take too much weight when they started. Otherwise, these two women would have knocked out a bundle of wouldn't have saved much trouble. No. 1, my face has been scratched like this, and I will have your help with my wife's affairs in the future. Who would dare to marry me with this scar? β
Yang Zhen smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, your wife's question will be on me in the future." Go ahead, get the hygienist and get some medicine, don't get infected. When I go down, you will stay here to recuperate. It's freezing this day, don't freeze it. Rest assured, there is a tiger there. Didn't he also serve as your deputy platoon commander? You still don't believe in his power. β
appeased the guard platoon commander who was made with a full face and was very worried about his future wife's questions, but after returning to his residence, Yang Zhen couldn't sleep. In his head, he was not thinking about the war, but about the family in those two photos. I tossed and turned until the sky was already slightly bright, and I was confused for a while.
Yang Zhen didn't plan to decide not to stay in the old bald man for long, although there were a few accidents, but Yang Zhen still decided to act according to the plan. After handing over the two female soldiers who had been broken up by the Anti-Japanese Federation to Peng Shilu, he was about to leave when he was stopped by Chen Bo, who came in person.
just asked him to choose two capable people, but he didn't expect Chen Bo to come in person. But it's okay to come, it just so happened that Yang Zhen decided to talk to him about his family's affairs. After all, leaving one's family in the Japanese-occupied area is always a hidden danger. Yang Zhen didn't want to repeat Cheng Bin's mistakes.
Although his family fell into the hands of the Japanese, it was probably only the least of the factors that led him to defect. But even if there is even the slightest risk, Yang Zhen does not want to take it.
After receiving Yang Zhen's telegram, Chen Bo, in order to hurry, specially asked Li Yanping to approve some gasoline and drove over overnight. But he didn't expect that as soon as he got here, he was pulled by Yang Zhen to his residence to talk alone. Although he didn't know what was going on, looking at the straight guard platoon standing outside, Chen Bo knew that what Yang Zhen was talking to him must be very important.
After listening to Yang Zhen finish talking about his family, Chen Bo was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect this to happen, but wasn't this commander from the Eighteenth Army? He was born in the 129th Division reorganized from the Fourth Front Army, and he was not from the Jizhong Military Region reorganized from the former Northeast Army. How can it be a Northeasterner?
Looking at Chen Bo, who was a little surprised, Yang Zhen smiled and said, "I am from the Northeast exiled student. After the 918 Incident, he went into exile in Guannai and joined the party when he was at Peking University. My file has been transferred from the 129th Division to the Central Committee, and the Central Committee knows and understands this matter. β
After receiving an affirmative answer, Chen Bo stood up and pondered for a long time and said, "No. 1, your family must find a way to get to the base area. The fact that you are from the Northeast is not known to the Japanese now. But this matter cannot be kept under wraps, and once it is leaked, it will become your fatal weakness. β
"We are not the communist wives of the enemy's propaganda, and we are not humane. In the face of flesh and blood, we are also the same people. If the identity of your family members is leaked, the little devil will not spare them. In this way, I will discuss with Long Chen, select a few capable people, secretly infiltrate the pseudo-Fengtian Province, and find a way to take them over. β
"It's just a long way to go, and it's safe on the road. In addition, Mukden is the main military industrial base of the Japanese puppet, and the intensity of control is extremely strict. Once the people we send are exposed, the elderly will be implicated. β
"No. 1, although the troops left in Mukden and Andong have all disintegrated or collapsed, after all, it is their old guerrilla area, and there should still be a certain relationship. I'll see if I'm looking for someone from the First Army to cooperate. The underground provincial party committee of Nanman is in their hands. β
Regarding Chen Bo's advice, Yang Zhen pondered for a while and shook his head and said, "It's better not to make a noise for the time being, you and Chen Long discuss it and think of a way." My brother, don't tell him about our relationship. A secret investigation was conducted on him first, and his identity was finally verified. I'm not alone at headquarters, there are other chiefs. β
"Report back to me as soon as you have the results. Remember, don't say anything to anyone but you. The commander-in-chief and Political Commissar Li will explain it myself. β
Although Chen Bo hesitated a little, he finally nodded and said, "That's it, I'll discuss it with Long Chen." They secretly released prisoners of war from the Kwantung Army and opened up a lot of passages. If you can't, use this relationship and let the Japanese army personally escort you. β
Yang Zhen nodded slightly and said: "Don't move a few key chess pieces, this is the foreshadowing that we have spent a lot of effort and paid a lot of price." These people must not move until the most critical time. As for the rest, you and Chen Long will study and solve it. β
"I'm going to go to the front with Du Kaishan tomorrow to see the terrain. After you go back, you will dispatch competent men to screen and inspect this batch of puppet Manchu soldiers. First, the national high school students were singled out, subjected to strict examination, and sent to several teaching teams in the military region. In addition, it is necessary to ensure that Japanese puppet spies are not allowed to get in. At the very least, you have to know what to do. But I don't want to see any indiscriminate killings. β
Chen Bo stood up and said, "No. 1, I'll go back immediately and mobilize people immediately." Rest assured, I will muster the best of my ability. Do your best to bring your family back. Regarding Chen Bo's statement, Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, "Do your best." β
After Chen Bo left, Yang Zhen pondered for a while, called Du Kaishan and said, "You go and explain, let's leave in the afternoon." Let's start with your southwest line, Boli. All the way east to the Rao River. Within a month, I'm going to see all of your terrain here. If you follow me, you must know in your heart. Plus, you can choose a few secret ammo hoarding points yourself. This is left to Peng Shilu to be fully responsible. β
Hearing this, Du Kaishan nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I'll transfer the divisional cavalry company over immediately." There was also an immediate telegram to all the troops on the front line, and the troops were dispatched to escort them along the way. We should also speed up the erection of a field telephone network so that we can ensure smooth communication between us at any time. β
Yang Zhen shook his hand and said, "No, just take my guard platoon and your guard squad, and don't bring one more person." In addition, one of the troops along the way is not notified. If you bring too much, it will be easy to expose the target. In addition, I brought a 15-watt radio with me, so that I could communicate with the garrisons at any time. β
Yang Zhen's light car was brief, and Du Kaishan said with some concern: "One zero one, the front is the confrontation area between our army and the Japanese army. We will bring a guard platoon plus a guard squad, all of which are light weapons, not to mention, and there are not many people. Once this encounters a small force of the Japanese army, then your safety? And what to do without notifying the troops in advance, in case of unnecessary accidental injury? β
Regarding Du Kaishan's worries, Yang Zhen smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this, I know it in my heart." You go and prepare first, and I'll prepare and prepare on my side. Bring enough food and dry rations for five days, and bring two winter tents. Also, bring a few casual clothes. That platoon of guards of mine has enough firepower to top a cavalry company, plus your guard squad is enough. β
In fact, there is nothing to hand over, the training syllabus is ready-made, just hand it over directly. There are also both inside the east and west bases, as long as you replenish the guard platoon with enough ammunition.
Yang Zhen's guard platoon was each armed with a long or short weapon, and the guard platoon of 36 people was armed with a submachine gun and half a Czech-made rifle. In addition to one fast and slow machine for each rifleman and one Soviet-made pistol for each submachine gunner, he was also armed with two Type 96 light machine guns and three grenadiers. Riflemen had two hundred rounds of ammunition each, and one hundred rounds of pistol ammunition. Submachine gunners, 300 rounds of 7.63 ammunition per person and six spare magazines for Soviet-made pistols.
Not counting these small arms, each of them also carried four Japanese-style Type 97 grenades that the arsenal had improved on its own. There were also four infantry directional mines on horseback. Plus two Soviet-made Mosinagan sniper rifles. If Yang Zhen hadn't insisted on disagreeing, according to Guo Bingxun's opinion, this guard platoon would have been fully equipped with the reconnaissance battalion's standard Bayi-style rifles.
His guard platoon has been training with the reconnaissance battalion, and they have learned almost all the techniques and tactics of the reconnaissance battalion. Not counting the equipment, according to the requirements of daily training, this guard platoon is supposed to be able to resist the attack of a Japanese squadron for at least six hours. One-on-one with a squad of Japanese troops, the battle must be resolved within an hour.
Therefore, Yang Zhen thought that it was enough to bring this guard platoon, plus Du Kaishan's guard squad that brought from the Third Brigade was composed of all veterans, each with a fast and slow machine and a 44-type cavalry gun. Yang Zhen thinks it is enough to deal with an unexpected situation.
Unlike other people who prefer submachine guns made in their own arsenals, and don't like the more delicate weapons such as fast and slow machines. In his early years, he had been peeking at this kind of sophisticated pistol for a long time in the Sichuan army, but because he was a small platoon commander, he could not wear such an expensive one, and the price of one was enough to exchange for two Czech-made rifles, and if it was made in Hanyang, it was enough to exchange for three weapons.
In his early years when he was fighting in Shanxi, he almost didn't salivate with this kind of weapon that the Central Army had equipped to the level of squad leader. Finally, he spent thirty yuan to buy one from a rout of the Central Army, and before he could hold it hot, he became a prisoner in a daze.
After the army developed and had a certain amount of power, this guy not only got a fast and slow machine for everyone in his guard squad as standard equipment.
I never carry a small pistol, and I carry a fast and slow machine on my back all day. Those who know know that he is a brigade commander, and those who don't know still think that he is a company commander.
Even the good gun that the commander-in-chief gave him that outsiders like the Smith revolver coveted was thrown by him on the guards. I rarely bring it myself.
Later, under the persuasion of Tao Jingfei on the basis of the lack of long-range suppressive firepower of his guard squad, he got a folding bayonet for each of his guard squads, and when he pressed the tenon when he used it, the bayonet was unfixed by itself. Although it uses the same Tomosaka 65 rifle as the 38-type rifle, the 44-type rifle, which is strangely 40 meters farther than the rifle, is used as the long weapon of the guard squad.
Du Kaishan's somewhat maverick move in the army, Yang Zhen didn't mind. Every soldier has his favorite weapon. He Yang Zhen himself has it, just like the British-made 77 caliber Enfield rifle, he has always liked it. He didn't care about that. On the contrary, he specially transferred forty Type 44 cavalry guns to Du Kaishan from the inventory.
Du Kaishan didn't let Yang Zhen wait long, and after accompanying Yang Zhen to lunch, he set off with Yang Zhen. The first point they chose was the confrontation area between the two sides in Boli County, the commanding heights of Yang Zhen's commanding heights in the Zhanì area, the first line of Lanbang Mountain, where the first line of Dalizi Mountain and Laoheibei Mountain in the southeast is connected, and the northwest is close to the Luoli River. The strategic location is extremely important.
If you live here, you can maintain pressure on the Japanese army at any time on the line of Boli, Jining, Mishan, and Muling in the southwest. It is also possible to attack Mishan directly to the east. Moreover, on the map, the Lanbang Mountain, which is more than 690 meters above sea level, is the highest peak at the western foot of the old barren top. If you live here, you can almost overlook the entire Luoli River Valley.
Lanbang Mountain is also the commanding height of all the surrounding mountains at the junction of Boli County and Baoqing, except for the old Huangdingzi Mountain in the northeast, and the Sifang Dingzi Mountain and Tieshan Bao Line at the junction of Jining and Boli County. So the first place Yang Zhen chose to check the terrain was here.
Standing on the top of Lanbang Mountain, Yang Zhen held the binoculars and looked at it for a long time before he put it down and said, "Lao Du, how is it, how do you feel after seeing the terrain here?" β
Hearing this, Du Kaishan put down the telescope in his hand and said, "One zero one, do you already have any plans in mind?" Attack, here you can go straight to the line of Jining along the small plain along the Luoli River. Retreat, here you can take advantage of the geographical advantage, block layer by layer, and consume a large number of Japanese troops. β
"If it is said that the first line of the old wilderness is the guarantee of the flank of the Baoqing West Line. Then the terrain here is more powerful than there. Regardless of which side attacked, it could only follow the narrow plains along the rivers of Luoli and Uken. Not to mention the extremely narrow terrain, there are quite a few swampy areas during this period. β
"If there is a need for defense here, give me a brigade, as long as there is sufficient ammunition, I can hold out for two to three months from here until Baoqing. It's just that the terrain here not only restricts the Japanese army to the north, but also restricts us to the south. If you attack in the southwest or southeast direction, I will build the junction of the Tiger Forest and the Mishan Mountain. The mountains are gentler there. It is more suitable as a breakthrough. β
