Chapter 142 The East Manchurian Raiders' Clever Capture of the Mudanjiang River

Tang Qiuli saw that everyone was listening attentively, and then said: "If the devils don't come to reinforce and stick to the place, then adopt the second set of plans, strengthen the superior forces and firepower in the attack, and eliminate them point by point."

He criticized the two attacks today because some detachment commanders underestimated the enemy, were impatient, and did not put the lives of the fighters in the first place.

He warned everyone that as commanders, every time they fight, they must minimize casualties, and if that unit achieves great results, but it is exchanged for the lives of the soldiers, the headquarters will not only not commend it, but will severely punish the commander of this unit.

A few detachment leaders listened carefully, and felt as if they were talking about themselves, and when they compared it, they did have a little bit of ideological signs, and they always felt that there was no one who was going to war.

In the end, he told all the commanders at all levels attending the meeting that the East Manchurian Campaign was not mainly aimed at annihilating the living forces of the devils, but with the purpose of destroying the economic foundation of the devils.

If the large mines and factories cannot be moved, they will all be completely blown up and destroyed, so that the Japanese will not be able to rely on the resources of Tohoku to launch a new war.

As for the all-out war of aggression against China that the Japanese were going to launch next, Tang Qiuli did not tell everyone, and it is estimated that no one would believe it, because this was two years later, and even in the whole of China at that time, no one would believe this judgment.

He could only do his best in the northeast to hold back the Japanese and prevent the Japanese from stepping into the land of North China on 7 July 1937 as scheduled.

I don't know if he, a little butterfly who has traveled through history, can have the ability to change the trend of history, so that the Chinese nation, which is suffering deeply, will have more time to buffer and prepare, and even avoid this national disaster.

In the northeast, the more ruthless and heavy the devils are beaten, the greater the losses of the devils, and only then can those fanatical invaders in the Tokyo base camp have some concerns, and only then can they have to withdraw their sharp fangs that have stretched out to North China and even the whole of China, and turn their heads to deal with the anti-Japanese forces that suddenly emerged from Manchuria, which is already regarded as a confidant.

Tang Qiuli even thought that if the Japanese concentrated all their attention on themselves, even though the troops would be under great pressure, they might eventually follow in the footsteps of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and they would very likely die in battle, and even if all the troops were exhausted, it would be worth it.

He can't say these words to anyone, even the dearest Xiaoling, guarding a big secret, the feeling of dying old is really weird.

After the meeting was dismissed, all the units went back to make meticulous preparations and launched fire reconnaissance against the enemy in front of them one after another to understand the situation of the devil's defense and the density of firepower.

The current combat plan is to assault from all sides, that is, the four directions are the main direction of attack, and to take advantage of the favorable conditions of superiority in strength and firepower to divide the defensive forces of the devils and minimize the casualties of the troops.

Tang Qiuli came to the offensive position of the second detachment, he did not alarm Su Jingfeng, and went directly to the middle of the soldiers.

The position of the second detachment, near the Mudanjiang River, was where the water inlets of the two moats were located, and a group of soldiers were discussing how to cross the two trenches and try to avoid being killed by devil fire.

Building a bridge is a way, but when the bridge is passed, the troops are too dense, and if the little devil has a light machine gun to guard there, everyone will be finished, and the detachment leader said that it is very difficult to cross the trench and reduce casualties

Tang Qiuli thought it was very interesting, Su Jingfeng, who was fierce Zhang Fei, also learned to mobilize the wisdom of the soldiers, brainstormed, and made a lot of progress.

Some fighters proposed to use explosives to blow up the trench, and some people immediately doubted that it was appropriate to put how much explosives should be placed, and that the routes to be sent were within the range of the devil's firepower.

Tang Qiuli liked this atmosphere very much, even the soldiers learned to use their brains, can such a force not win the battle

A young warrior caught his attention, and when the other warriors spoke enthusiastically, he stared at a pair of large clever eyes, looked thoughtful, and threw sections of branches into the water from time to time with both hands, and watched them float away along the water.

There were words in his mouth, as if he was calculating something, Tang Qiuli walked up to him and asked softly, "Are you calculating the flow rate of water?" The warrior looked back and saw a man younger than him, looking at him with a smile.

He was obviously stunned, who is this person? I don't know, how do you know what I think?

He nodded hesitantly and asked, "You also know the problem of water velocity?" I'm having some difficulty, you said of the troops? Tang Qiuli smiled but didn't answer, and the two of them studied and calculated there.

Their voices were a little higher, which attracted the attention of the other soldiers, and the old soldiers of the second detachment all knew the commander, and hurriedly came over to salute: "Good commander"

The warrior was stunned, what? This is the supreme leader of the Bloody Hand Regiment, the commander Tang Qiuli? The invincible figure in the legend, the idol in the hearts of all the warriors.

From the day he joined the army, his ears were filled with the name and achievements of this person, and he imagined that he should be a burly, bearded, murderous, and majestic man.

Now when I see it, he is a handsome young man, bookish and thick, younger than himself, although I heard that he is not very old, but he is too young, right?

He hurriedly stood up, his feet slipped, and he almost fell, Tang Qiuli grabbed his arm, and he hurriedly stood upright: "Report to the commander, Chang Feng, a soldier of the second brigade and the second squadron of the second detachment, report to you"

Tang Qiuli smiled very brightly, like a spring breeze to dissolve the tension of Chang Feng, the commander is still quite approachable, not as majestic and unapproachable as the legend, he secretly thought.

Su Jingfeng rushed over when he heard the news, and saw that the commander was chatting happily with a large group of soldiers, and was a little surprised, Tang Qiuli saw him and asked him to immediately notify the members of the command headquarters, as well as the cadres above the captain level of each detachment, to come here for a meeting.

Chang Feng was about to leave, but was stopped by Tang Qiuli, "In a while, you tell everyone about your ideas and methods", Chang Feng was very surprised, they were all senior commanders, and he was just an ordinary soldier who had just joined the army, and his heart was nervous, and he was a little flustered.

Seeing the commander's bright eyes, with encouragement and appreciation, his heart warmed, and his mood calmed down a lot.

Soon, the commanders who joined the army meeting all came, thinking that the commander had some new combat deployment, and they couldn't help but be stunned and surprised when they saw that a new soldier had been arranged to tell everyone what good way to do it.

After listening to Chang Feng's speech, they all patted their thighs and applauded, why didn't they think of it?

Seeing that these commanders, who were usually angry, were impressed by an ordinary new soldier, Tang Qiuli laughed, and said to Su Jingfeng: "I want this Changfeng, I will be transferred to the headquarters staff office as an operational staff officer, and I will go with me immediately."

Su Jingfeng is happier than he himself has been promoted, this is my old Su's soldiers, and it is the pride of the second detachment, and I will have to blow about these old guys in the future

The method of Changfeng is very simple, using the water in the moat is the flow characteristic, set up a number of rafts, on each raft, place 100 catties of high explosives, put it in the water inlet, according to the flow rate of the water and the order of putting the raft, the fuse is shortened in turn, which can ensure that the two moats are blown up at the same time A number of passages.

In this way, the casualties of the soldiers were reduced, and the suddenness of the attack was ensured, although it was a simple method, if it were not for a keen mind, careful observation and accurate calculation, this method would not have been thought of, especially the accurate calculation of the flow rate of water, which did not have a considerable cultural process

This is also one of the important reasons why Tang Qiuli promoted him, and later he learned that Chang Feng was a second-year student of science and engineering at Northeastern University, and after the "918" incident, he was forced to drop out of school and stay at home.

It just so happened that the main force of the Bloody Hand Regiment was in Eastern Manchuria, when he was waiting for the expansion of the army, he enlisted in the additional troops, and he had seen in the newspapers before, and the reports about the Bloody Hand Regiment aroused an extremely strong interest in the bandit armament, which was called the most dangerous hài by the Japanese army and the Manchukuo media.

Today, by chance, the fate of his life was changed, and later, Chang Feng became the deputy chief of staff of the Bloody Hand Regiment and became the core figure of the decision-making level of the troops.

As soon as it got dark, the attacking troops reconnoitred the distribution of the devil's firepower, and the small-scale harassment action began, and the soldiers shouted and blew the trumpet, and the devil's firepower did not know the truth and reality, thinking that the bloody hand group was going to attack on a large scale, and opened fire one after another.

In the night, on the devil's position, the lights flashed, and all the hidden forts and pillboxes opened fire one after another, frantically pouring bullets on the opposite side, tracer bullets scratched a long trajectory, like flying locusts scurrying around, and the target was very obvious.

The artillery observers reported the coordinates of the devil's firing point to the artillery commander through the intercom, and the 92-type infantry guns and mortars determined the coordinates one after another, not knowing that the devils who had been put on the death list were still shooting with their lives.

As soon as the devil stopped, the soldiers fired a few shots, fired a few shots, and caused the devils to shoot wildly, tossing a few times, all the devils' firepower points were exposed, and they were exhausted, no matter what the fighters were, they didn't fire.

The battlefield fell silent, and at midnight, a huge and violent serial explosion resounded in the night sky, and in the firelight, the earth flew, and the two trenches that the devils regarded as barriers collapsed one after another, and were blown out of many passages.

Then, the precise artillery strikes fell on the heads of the devils on the position, the shells detonated the minefield, a series of explosions, explosions one after another, whistling mine fragments, strangling every inch of space, no living creature can survive in this steel death whirlpool.
