158, the storm rises (the third change)

However, it was said that after the establishment of the Chifeng Garrison Headquarters, Hou Zide served as the commander-in-chief, and Gadamerin and Du Guangyuan served as the deputy commanders-in-chief. After consultations, the three of them adjusted the locations of the major units in view of the current strategic situation.

The second brigade was originally stationed in Niujiayingzi, south of Chifeng, but now Chifeng is in their own hands, so there is no need to continue to nest behind. After Hou Zide, Gadamerin and Du Guangyuan communicated, they immediately issued an order to adjust the deployment:

The 3rd Cavalry Battalion of the 2nd Brigade was stationed in Wangta Town, about 100 kilometers east of Chifeng, to monitor the enemy in the direction of Tongliao and Fuxin.

The 1st Cavalry Battalion of the 2nd Brigade was stationed in Tangjia Battalion, about 110 kilometers northeast of Chifeng, to monitor the enemy in the direction of Kailu and Tongliao.

The 2nd Cavalry Battalion of the 2nd Brigade was stationed on the Hailasu line, 120 kilometers north of Chifeng, to defend the south bank of the Liaoxi River.

Manmeng. The 1st Cavalry Battalion, which belonged to the Independent Brigade, was stationed on the front line of Tucheng, about 130 kilometers northwest of Chifeng, to monitor the movements of the Japanese army in Linxi and prevent the Motegi Brigade from suddenly moving south.

Manmeng. The 2nd Cavalry Battalion, which belonged to the Independent Brigade, was stationed on the Guangyuan line, 150 kilometers northwest of Chifeng, to prevent the Motegi Brigade from engaging in roundabout operations.

Manmeng. The 3rd Cavalry Battalion, which belonged to the Independent Brigade, was stationed on the front line of Wangdian, about 130 kilometers west of Chifeng, to prevent the enemy from sneaking up on the Sanxiandong base area.

The 4th Cavalry Battalion of the 3rd Brigade was stationed at Shangguantai north of Chifeng to respond to the front line and conduct mobile operations.

The 3rd Infantry Battalion, which belonged to the 3rd Brigade, advanced 30 kilometers west of Chifeng, and built a strong permanent fortification based on the Roe Deer Mountain. It is equipped with two 105 field guns and 200 shells to guard the northwest gate of Chifeng.

The 4th Infantry Battalion of the 3rd Brigade advanced to the Marin line, 40 kilometers east of Chifeng, to build permanent fortifications. It is equipped with two 105 field guns and 200 shells to guard the northeast gate of Chifeng. At the same time, it is responsible for strengthening the defense of Chifeng City and maintaining law and order in the city.

The guard companies of the Chifeng Garrison Command, which originally belonged to the three brigades, were immediately merged to form the headquarters guard battalion. In addition, an armored heavy machine gun battalion was formed, which, together with the second tank battalion and the guard battalion, formed the garrison brigade of the Chifeng Command. In peacetime, he assisted the 4th Infantry Battalion under the 3rd Brigade to do a good job in the defense of Chifeng City.

So far, the Chifeng Garrison Command has completed the entire deployment work, with a total combat strength of four brigades and more than 9,700 people.

After consultation, the Chifeng Garrison Command instructed Cao Fengxiang, chief of staff of the Third Brigade, to serve as the commander of the Chifeng City Defense and specifically command all the city defense troops. At the same time, we will work closely with Longxiang Company to set up a supplementary brigade as soon as possible to carry out the recruitment of soldiers. The training of recruits is carried out by the guard battalion.

"Brothers, the detachment commander has handed over all three-quarters of the main forces to us." At the military meeting above the deputy group commander, Hou Zide said solemnly: "We now have three brigades in our hands, and the detachment commander is left with a first brigade and a garrison brigade. If something goes wrong on our side, who can we be worthy of? ”

"What Commander Hou said is not serious enough!" Qin Yuefang, who attended the meeting secretly, said: "The enemy of the Chifeng Garrison Headquarters is mainly the Fourth Brigade of the Independent Cavalry of the Little Devils, and there are more than 5,000 people in the two wings. However, the frontal enemies of the detachment commander were the 2nd Division, the 8th Division, the 14th Mixed Brigade, and the 33rd Mixed Brigade. In other words, the detachment commander has fewer troops in his hands than us, but he faces six times as many enemies as ours, and this does not include tens of thousands of puppet troops! ”

Gadamerin slapped the table: "According to the words of your Han people, the one who is a confidant dies." The detachment leader is closer to me than my own brother, I don't care about any other big truths, even if it is to protect the detachment leader, even if I Gadda sacrifices my head, it will not hesitate! ”

"Brother Gadamerin is right!" Du Guangyuan slammed the table: "Now it is said that the Northeast Army is proud of surrendering and betraying the country, although Lao Tzu is not a member of the Northeast Army now, he was once a member of the Northeast Army." it, I'm not done with the little devils! ”

Because the major marshal issued a telegram of appointment on March 6, 1933, Bai Shujie became the acting chairman of Rehe Province and the commander-in-chief of the former enemy major general of Rehe.

No matter how Bai Shujie himself thinks about this problem, anyway, the people of Rehe, North China and Northeast China know that there is a baby commander-in-chief here, a 22-year-old major general!

Of course, this is just a verbal major general commander, and no one has sent a letter of appointment to Bai Shujie until now. Whether anyone will send it in the future or not, only God knows.

Zhao Jinxi has been busy in the military hospital recently, and on March 7, he finally took some time to run to the headquarters of Bawangdong, and joked with Bai Shujie when they met: "Congratulations to the major general, congratulations to the major general!" ”

"Do you think that's a good thing? What bullshit is the former enemy major general commander-in-chief? This is clearly putting me on the crater! Bai Shujie said with a wry smile: "The little sixth young marshal can't do anything else, the whole person is still a set." Tang Yulin escaped from the battle, but in fact, the entire Rehe had already been lost. ”

"He now has a general order, putting Lao Tzu on the bright side, and he has no bullshit of his own. And directly pushed me to the front of the little devil, if you want to hide and secretly make ghosts in the future, then there is no chance. If Rehe is lost in the future, it will be Lao Tzu's responsibility, you know? ”

"That's what happened, it's really unreasonable!" Zhao Jinxi was furious when he heard this: "This deflated calf blames others, and his conscience is greatly broken!" ”

"Girl, there's no need to be angry." Bai Shujie shook his head and said, "No matter what, we are all looking for the bad luck of the little devil." With this righteous and bright name, we can also do a lot of things. Therefore, I decided that Gan Tong should concentrate on the administrative affairs of Chengde, including local security, tax administration, military recruitment, logistics and so on. But, girl, you're on a heavy task now. ”

Zhao Jinxi smiled and asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Bai Shujie stared at Zhao Jinxi's eyes and said, "I remember you told me that you hope to be able to go to the front line to directly command the battle, is that so?" Well, I decided to set up the Chengde Garrison Command, and you will be the commander-in-chief, and Zhang Xiang and Liu Yanmei will be the deputy commanders-in-chief. The three of you are solely responsible for the defense of Chengde. ”

Zhao Jinxi asked rhetorically: "Is this appropriate?" The Chifeng Garrison Headquarters is a little monkey to take the lead, Chengde, you let me show up again, what are you doing yourself? ”

Bai Shujie blinked and said, "Haha! Didn't the young marshal Xiaoliuzi appoint me as the acting chairman of the province of Rehe? Naturally, I became my commander-in-chief. You have commanded large forces in battle, and I am sure you will be able to coordinate the combat deployment at the front. It's the bastards on Chifeng's side who are all reckless and impulsive, and that's what I'm worried about. But now you can only hone them slowly, and it's useless to be in a hurry. Okay, you pack up and take my guard company and go to your headquarters in Chengde, and then I'll give the order. ”

In the evening of the same day, all the brigades of the Youyan Anti-Japanese Detachment received a telegram with the same content, the main content of which was to clarify the organizational structure of the campaign command and the subordinate system of each combat unit.

Acting Provincial Chairman of Rehe, Former Commander-in-Chief of the Enemy's Major General: Bai Shujie's Direct Troops: (4,520 combat troops) Garrison Brigade: Special Battalion, Machine Gun Battalion, Armored Heavy Machine Gun BattalionNew Fifth Infantry Brigade: Fifth Infantry Battalion, Sixth Infantry Battalion, Seventh Infantry Battalion Chengde Garrison Command (6,730 front-line combat troops) Commander-in-Chief: Zhao Jinxi, Deputy Commander-in-Chief: Zhang Xiang, Liu Yanmei First Mixed Brigade: First Infantry Battalion, Second Infantry Battalion, Fourth Cavalry Battalion New Fourth Mixed Brigade: Women's Battalion, Machine Gun Battalion, The Sixth Cavalry Battalion is newly formed and the Sixth Armored Brigade: Armored Train Battalion, First Tank Battalion, Air Defense Heavy Machine Gun Battalion Chifeng Garrison Command (9,700 front-line combat troops) Commander-in-Chief: Hou Zide, Deputy Commander-in-Chief: Gadamerin, Du Guangyuan Second Cavalry Brigade: First Cavalry Battalion, Second Cavalry Battalion, Third Cavalry Battalion Third Mixed Brigade: Third Infantry Battalion, Fourth Infantry Battalion, Fifth Cavalry Battalion Manmeng. Independent Brigade: The 1st Independent Cavalry Battalion, the 2nd Independent Cavalry Battalion, and the 3rd Independent Cavalry Battalion of the newly formed City Defense Garrison Brigade: Guard Battalion, Second Tank Battalion, and Armored Heavy Machine Gun Battalion In addition to the secret telegram of internal adjustment, Bai Shujie also issued an inaugural telegram, officially appointing Gan Tong as the acting mayor of Chengde City, presiding over thermal and administrative affairs, and concurrently serving as the commander of the Chengde garrison; Cao Fengxiang was appointed as the acting mayor of Chifeng, presiding over administrative affairs within Chifeng, and concurrently serving as the commander of the Chifeng garrison.

In this way, everyone's eyes are completely confused. According to the content of this telegram, it can be inferred that the military and political power of Chengde and Chifeng is concentrated on Gan Tong and Cao Fengxiang respectively, so Bai Shujie's right-hand man is Gan Tong and Cao Fengxiang.

In terms of the little devils, they also listed Gan Tong and Cao Fengxiang as their opponents. In the eyes of the little devil, as long as Gan Tong in the south and Cao Fengxiang in the north are killed, Bai Shujie will have no curse.

According to Bai Shujie's statement: "Damn, the drama people can play, each with its own mysteries." Lao Tzu also made two temporary workers to play, in case there was a disturbance, it was all done by temporary workers, and the two people were directly removed from their mayoral positions. If it doesn't work, just remove their garrison commander and replace two people to continue to do it! ”

Bai Shujie straightened out the command structure, and the situation at the front line has changed dramatically.

It turned out that Zhao Jinxi took up his post, and after learning in detail about the state of the former enemy, he immediately fine-tuned the position of the existing troops.

The first order was issued to Captain Lan Caiqin of the newly formed Fourth Brigade: "Order your Sixth Cavalry Battalion to immediately move south along the Luan River, then turn east in concealment, and wait in the vicinity of Longmen Town." Order a company of your machine gun battalion to immediately go 30 miles to the southeast and wait for a hidden position on the front line of the ditch. ”

As soon as these two orders were executed, the 16th Infantry Wing of the little devils began a second attack. At dawn on this day, a brigade suddenly dispatched and rushed all the way to the north-west ditch, targeting the left flank of the east side of the Lan Caiqin machine gun battalion.

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