147, expand the base more)
One company, it is an iron fist in Lan Caiqin's hand. Bai Fengxiang was dying and struggling, and he actually hit this iron fist, if he didn't die, it would be unreasonable! Because he rushed to the front, so, as soon as Lan Caiqin gave an order, Bai Fengxiang was beaten into a blood gourd and rolled off the horse! The four beams and eight pillars that followed were the same ending!
The minions that came later, when they saw that the big boss and the four beams and eight pillars were all killed, the original fierce spirit of the outlaw suddenly disappeared, and the offensive naturally withered. In less than a minute, one of the bandits finally raised his hand and shouted: "Don't fight!" Don't hit! Heroes spare their lives! ”
Surrender, too, is a contagion! As long as there is the first one, it will be contagious!
In the blink of an eye, more than 500 people raised their hands! Lan Caiqin was forced to stop before she finished the first round of the fight. Growing up again and again called bad luck!
This encirclement and annihilation battle lasted for an hour and a half. After cleaning the battlefield, a total of 427 bandits were killed and hundreds of horses were killed. Zuihou captured 539 prisoners and completed 1,175 horses. After being injured, there were only 268 horses that could only be transferred to Beishan Village. In addition, 6 machine guns, 937 carbines and 417 shell guns were seized.
And a whole bunch of messy stuff! More than 500 dead horses were also sent to the cooking squad, where they were cleaned and salted to become a necessary supplementary meat.
Through the screening of bandit prisoners using the unique method of the Youyan anti-Japanese detachment, another 169 people were shot. Only 370 people were sent to the farms for forced labor. The bandits were suppressed twice, and the number of laborers on the farm increased by 448.
After this battle, three hundred miles around Chifeng, the bandits were empty!
Without the harassment of bandits, the Sanxiandong base area ushered in the most peaceful development opportunity. The third stronghold, the Overlord Cave, also began to develop.
This is the forward base for the base to arrive at Chaoyang and Yuguan (Shanhaiguan), which Bai Shujie once took special care of, and it is also the place where Gantong focuses on development.
Soon after, Hou Zide was pursued by Qianli for stealing horses, and it was here where Zuihou stayed to rest, and all the spare war horses were also concentrated here. By the beginning of September 1931, the Bawangdong Horse Farm had been expanded and already had 3,579 war horses!
Among the Three Immortal Cave Base Areas, the Overlord Cave is the largest one. The entire cave complex is divided into three layers, with a total of 109 large and small caves, which became the location of the rear hospital of the Youyan anti-Japanese detachment!
On September 19, 1931, the first wounded were ushered in in the Bawang Cave, a total of 472 people. Because of Gan Tong's previous genius, the medical company formed played a huge role! By March 1932, a total of 1,357 wounded had been received here, and 1,129 had recovered!
On January 10, 1932, after consultation with Bai Shujie's telegram, based on Lan Caiqin's independent battalion, and then using the recovered wounded to reorganize, the Fourth Brigade of the Youyan Anti-Japanese Detachment was officially formed. The Fourth Brigade will not participate in front-line operations for the time being, and its main task at present is to closely monitor the enemy situation around the Sanxian Cave and ensure the safety of the base area.
All the officers above the deputy company commander of the brigade are all young special platoon soldiers personally brought out by Bai Shujie and Gan Tong, and they can be said to be the descendants of the lineage! They have one mission, to protect Gan Tong and the base area!
Captain: Gan Tong (concurrently), Deputy Captain: Lan Caiqin, Peng Cuiyun.
Guard Company (206 people): Company Commander: Huang Qiaoyun, Deputy Company Commander: Xiao Lamei, Qiu Yanxiang Female Barracks (746 people): Battalion Commander: Xie Yushu, Deputy Battalion Commander: Shu Miaoling, Tang Manrou Machine Gun Battalion (746 people): Battalion Commander: Yao Jianming, Deputy Battalion Commander: Fu Shengzhang, Niu Chengzhi Sixth Cavalry Battalion (746 people): Battalion Commander: Tao Chengzhou, Deputy Battalion Commander: Gao Zhida, Liu Hongmao The total number of people is 2448 people.
Regarding the issue of the weaponry and firepower density of the Fourth Brigade, Bai Shujie clearly instructed in the telegram: The brigade belongs to the core defense of the base area, and the firepower density and mobility must be second to none. The specific equipment is as follows:
The guard company belonged to Gan Tong's personal guard, and was equipped with 24 light machine guns, 124 machine guns, 6 mortars, 206 war horses, and 15 mules and horses.
72 light machine guns, 372 machine guns, and 746 war horses in the women's barracks; The machine gun battalion carried 6 heavy machine guns, 48 light machine guns, 9 mortars, 746 war horses, and 20 mules and horses; The cavalry battalion had 72 light machine guns, 372 machine guns, and 746 war horses.
After completing the reorganization of the Fourth Brigade, Gan Tong took advantage of Tang Weiye's connections and quietly entered Chengde to set up two reception offices. Among them, Shu Miaoling, deputy commander of the women's battalion of the Fourth Brigade, led a company and stationed at the reception of Dashimiao. Tang Manrou, deputy battalion commander, led the second company and stationed at the Wangjiagou reception office.
The two companies are five kilometers apart from each other from north to south, of which the Wangjiagou reception office is one kilometer away from Chengde downtown. It is mainly to monitor the little devils east of Chengde and west of Lingyuan. At the same time, it is ready to receive the personnel and materials transferred from the direction of Fuxin at any time.
The first batch of supplies received at the reception was three armored trains transferred from Fuxin. When the armored train passed through Ye Baishou Station, it was discovered by the officers and soldiers of Wan Fulin's 130th Division, and they actually wanted to intercept it. Luo Dingkun, the commander of the ironclad battalion, is only 16 years old, and he is a special platoon of Leng Touqing, and he immediately unfurls the military flag and is about to go to war!
I learned that the armored train belonged to the Youyan anti-Japanese detachment, and it was captured by the little devils and showed its might on the Nenjiang Bridge! Even if Wan Fulin is red-eyed, he can only let his subordinates go. There is no way, the most elite second division of the little devils is all deflated in their hands, and their own 130th division is only afraid that it is purely to deliver food.
Bai Shujie asked these three armored trains to come over to strengthen the air defense of the fourth brigade. The armored train has long been refitted and propelled by a double locomotive, and the original 37mm rapid-fire guns have been replaced by two twin 25mm anti-aircraft guns! On the first and sixth wagons, 12 Maxim heavy machine guns remained.
Behind all three armored trains, two flatbed wagons were mounted. They were accompanied by 12 tanks and two companies of infantry. This is the Second Tank Battalion under Bai Shujie, and the battalion commander Guan Xingguo is also the leader of the Junior Special Platoon.
Regarding Bai Shujie's reorganization of the ironclad battalion and tank battalion, we have to start from the beginning.
At the beginning, Bai Shujie asked Sheng Zhiguo to contact Tom to buy the Deg Galev DP light machine gun, but it turned out that this guy was really capable. Although the DP light machine gun has not yet come to fruition, he actually got the 25mm twin anti-aircraft gun that the Soviet army had just equipped! But the price is really not cheap, one is 1580 gold bars!
Bai Shujie knew from later generations that during this period, against light tanks and infantry, the Gaoping dual-purpose rapid-fire gun was the most lethal weapon. Later, after bargaining, Bai Shujie took out half of his gold bar inventory and got back 50 25mm twin anti-aircraft guns, plus 10 million shells.
In addition to the six welders recruited from Tongliao, Bai Shujie invited all the craftsmen near the Fuxin Coal Mine and the railway station. Then go into a big fight and rebuild all 24 tanks and five armored trains! The current tank can no longer be called a tank, it should be called a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun.
Because the shells could not keep up, the original tank was modified. The 37mm gun was removed and the 25mm twin anti-aircraft gun was added. Bai Shujie knows that anti-aircraft guns can not only be used for air defense, but also against the tanks of little devils. If you come across a little devil's bean chariot or a medium tank, the anti-aircraft gun can completely disassemble them into parts!
Bai Shujie removed the turret on the original tank and only used its turf and engine. Then the auxiliary equipment of the 25mm twin anti-aircraft gun was simplified as much as possible, and then welded to the original tank. The main purpose is to deal with the devil's tanks and pillboxes, and at a critical moment, you can also deal with the pig attack of the little devil.
As for the five armored trains, the same approach was used. However, the original two wagons for the installation of artillery were directly discarded, and the flatbed wagons were found to directly carry the anti-aircraft guns for fixing. In case there will be no armored trains in the future, the anti-aircraft guns can also be unloaded.
The front and rear wagons of the armored train were equipped with a total of 12 Type 92 heavy machine guns and 24 light machine guns. The anti-aircraft weapons on the roof of the wagon are equipped with 12 Makqin heavy machine guns and two 25mm twin anti-aircraft guns.
Of the remaining 16 anti-aircraft guns, Bai Shujie was all mounted on a 3.5-ton Japanese coal truck. The whole renovation process took two months.
With the equipment, Bai Shujie formed an armored air defense brigade based on the original tank battalion, plus 314 young students from Tongliao and 324 people from Shao Jianzhang's headquarters of the 620th Regiment of the former Seventh Brigade of the Northeast Army.
Captain: Bai Shujie (concurrently), Deputy Captain: Ma Deyao, Shao Jianzhang (concurrently) The First Ironclad Battalion (520 people): Battalion Commander: Yang Hongcai, Deputy Battalion Commander: Qin Mingyuan The Second Ironclad Battalion (520 people): Battalion Commander: Luo Dingkun, Deputy Battalion Commander: Gao Zhida.
The 1st Tank Battalion (520 people): Battalion Commander: Ji Changnian, Deputy Battalion Commander: Liu Feipeng 2nd Tank Battalion (520 people): Battalion Commander: Guan Xingguo, Deputy Battalion Commander: Liu Hongmao.
The 1st Ironclad Battalion is equipped with two ironclad trains and 8 anti-aircraft guns; The 2nd Ironclad Battalion was equipped with three armored trains.
The tank battalion has two tank companies and two infantry companies. Each tank company is equipped with 6 tanks, and each infantry company is equipped with 24 light machine guns. After the reorganization of Fuxin, Bai Shujie gave a special explanation on the tactical issues of the coordinated operation of Butan and organized a drill.
In order to strengthen the mobility and firepower density of the garrison brigade, the three vehicle load-loaded machine guns of each battalion and the whole brigade were strengthened with three load-loaded machine guns.
After the formation of the armored air defense brigade, Bai Shujie considered the next direction of the little devil's attack, so he transferred the 2nd Ironclad Battalion and the 2nd Tank Battalion to the direction of Chengde and accepted the unified command of the base command. The other 8 vehicles carrying anti-aircraft guns and 8 vehicles were transferred to the direction of Chifeng with heavy machine guns, under the unified command of Hou Zide.
By mid-October 1932, when these matters had been dealt with, the time had come. Bai Shujie ordered the garrison brigade to step up the collection of various strategic materials, and use all the wagons of Fuxin under his control to transport them to the Chengde reception office. The special battalion was ordered to install explosives in all coal mines within a month, and at the same time dismantle all coal mine equipment and transport it away.
At the end of October 1932, Bai Shujie issued an order to his subordinate departments for winter training. Because he can't say that he crossed over, he must know the attack route of the little devil, so the order he gave was a little vague.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
