Chapter 12: The Aftermath of War (43)

As the hull of the Takamatsu trembled obviously, the cable was pulled to the surface, and Chen Dingyi shouted: "Dog, the strength of this ship is not small, brothers work hard, see if the ship is powerful or we are powerful."

Thirty big men shouted the trumpet and moved the winch in unison, only to see that the Takamatsu in the river was dragged to death, and after a while, it gradually moved diagonally towards the direction of Tiepanzhou. The people on the boat ran around and shouted, because they were far away, Mo Di couldn't hear what they were calling, and the anxious and crazy expressions he saw only in the binoculars knew that the people on the ship were in a frenzy.

Luo Wei said: "Fight!" "The first thing to sound was the sound of the Min's 24 Makqin machine guns, and the bullets swept flat at the top of the deck of the Takamatsu, and suddenly the wooden wheelhouse and the upper cabin were shattered, and soon a fire broke out. On the ship, the sound of firefighting and wailing was chaotic.

Next came the sound of the 70 infantry guns. Liao Dacannon, the commander of the artillery company, fixed the cannon body next to the big tree and aimed at the hull of the Takamatsu less than a thousand meters away from the barrel, which was to shoot the infantry cannon out of the field artillery. I saw four shells hit the hull heavily, smashing the hull into four large craters, and the Takamatsu shook for a while, and then regained its balance. The infantry artillery worked to no avail, and Liao Cannon was so angry that he scolded his mother and told the gunner to honestly play the curve and hoist the shells onto the deck of the ship.

As the infantry artillery shells fell on the deck, the people on the boat began to dive, Luo Wei asked people to go to the river with a few crutches, and shot at the people in the water. In this kind of weather and this kind of environment, even if you survive to swim to the Yangtze River, you will have to lose half your life.

At this time, a wooden boat was rowed out of the fork of the river, the speed was not slow, close to the Takamatsu, the Maxim machine gun stopped firing, only the infantry gun was still firing again and again, and the landing point had obviously moved back, obviously, it was not intended to cause accidental damage to the wooden boat. When the wooden ship reached a distance of about 300 meters from Takamatsu, it saw 18 hand cannons fire at the same time, and the shells fell on the ship in unison.

After firing all the hand cannon shells, the attack was also coming to an end, and Luo Wei shouted: "Retreat!" "Someone on the wooden boat swung a knife and cut the cable that held the Takamatsu to it, and the wooden boat withdrew. Without the pull of the cable, the Takamatsu drifted downstream with the waves. The various units that had been ambushed on Tiepanzhou began to retreat in a planned manner, and the Zongyang guerrilla brigade took the lead, they were responsible for the loading of the ships, followed by the reconnaissance company, the assault company, and the artillery company. Behind the charge of the heavy fire company, the Makqin machine gun continued to shoot at the Takamatsu on the river, and there was no longer a living target on the ship, and the bullets hit the hull of the ship with a loud sound. Mo Di took one last look at the huge winch, this time it was really thanks to this primitive guy!

After leaving Tiepanzhou and going to land, Zhang Shenghu's reconnaissance company did not follow the large army to retreat to Caizi Lake, but followed the Takamatsu who was drifting along the Yangtze River to the east, and the fire of the Takamatsu, which had lost power, became bigger and bigger, and the thick black smoke went straight to the clouds, drifting for about five kilometers, and the Takamatsu rested on the shallows on the north bank, and the hull of the ship also had a serious roll. When the ships going east and west saw the Takamatsu, they did not dare to approach and bypassed it from a distance. Zhang Shenghu stayed until the fire on the Takamatsu was extinguished, and he didn't see anyone jumping off from it to escape, judging that this boatload of people, except for those who dived before, was all finished with Takamatsu, because of the fire before, he wanted to survive on the ship, unless it was Sun Wukong in the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun.

If the situation is good, then this ambush on the water really killed 2,000 people of the Peaceful Founding Army! Thinking of this, Zhang Shenghu gasped, this number is a bit much.

Not only Zhang Shenghu does not have this number a little much, but Mo Enemy Luo Wei Shizhong and Liu Renkai Huang Yingyi all agree that this number is a bit much, although the political perspective is different, but they are both Chinese, which is not the same as killing the Japanese. Relatively speaking, it is Liu Renkai who can be seen more openly, his political purpose is relatively strong, and his human nature is lighter, sitting on the boat, all the way to the enemy, the reason is very sufficient, if these people arrive in Anqing, Liu Zuoxin's troops are all in place, the war on the He'an line will be fully opened, on the other hand, we ourselves, the 138th Division is not useful, only a 176th Division, want to block a brigade of the Japanese army plus a division of the Peaceful Founding Army, I am afraid it is not easy. Mo Di also knows this truth, rather than being killed himself, it is better to strike first, but in the face of the national war, he will slaughter his compatriots so tragically, and he always feels a little uncomfortable. Liu Ren laughed that he had never seen the world, and there were several large-scale encirclements and suppressions in Hunan and Jiangxi in those years, and the casualties on both sides were not less than 10,000 each time. In Dabie Mountain, not to mention the encirclement and suppression of the Central Army, it is an internal rebellion, and more than 1,000 killings are made once. I have never heard of this kind of thing in the past, and the invincibles are like listening to the book of heaven.

Under Liu Renkai's explanation, the enemies have also untied the knots in their hearts, since the Peaceful Founding Army has chosen to recognize the thief as its father and choose to be the enemy of the nation, let them die!

In Xin'andu, the enemy troops left the boat and landed on the shore, except for the four infantry guns that had a car to pull back to Yuexi, the others could only walk into the depths of the Dabie Mountain along the Dasha River.

The news of the success of the attack on the Takamatsu reached the division headquarters, and Tan Heyi, in accordance with the previous agreement, hung the main credit on the side of the Zongyang Guerrilla Brigade, and as for the field supplement regiment, only the guard battalion cooperated. Li Xuan, chief of staff of the 176th Division, and Jiang Chunyang, director of the Political Department, were very unworthy and believed that doing so would affect his promotion. The military headquarters of the 48th Army received the report of the 176th Division, and the army commander Su Zuxin smiled faintly and said to the deputy army commander Mo Dehong: What does Brother Zhikuan (Mo Dehong) think of Mo Tianzong's move? Mo Dehong believes that Mo Di is right to do this, although the merit is high but the qualifications are not enough, it is better to forbear than to be high. Su Zuxin said that the cone is in the bag, its edge will appear, it is difficult to hide, and it is better to let it play than to survive with grievances. Mo Dehong asked Su Zuxin how to give full play to his invincible talent, and Su Zuxin was silent. Yang Zanmo, chief of staff of the 48 th Army, was the person who had the most favorable impression of Mo Di in the military department, and when he heard Su Zuxin's meaning, he adjusted the summary of the operation, and the troops involved in the battle were the guard battalion of the Field Supplement Regiment and the Zongyang Guerrilla Brigade, but the organizer and commander of the entire attack was Mo Di, and he praised Mo Di with strong ink and color, and reported it to the headquarters of the 21 st Group Army.

Wei Yongcheng, director of the Political Department of the 21 st Group Army, and Tang Ruru, director of the Military Intelligence Department, received a report from the 48 th Army, believing that the hardships of the Mo Enemy had come to an end, and that after the Meicheng Battle last year, the Mo Enemy had been awarded another medal, and if nothing else, the Mo Enemy would receive his third medal for the attack on the Takamatsu. Standing at 30, Mo Di is exactly 30 years old this year, in his prime, and towards maturity, he should make great progress and go further, so the word Mo Enemy has been added to the quota of the advanced training class of the Sixth Army Branch School in Guilin in July 30 of the Republic of China recommended to the Education Department of the Military Command Department of the Military Commission.

At the same time as the report of the 21 st Group, a report on Li Benyi's appointment and dismissal was sent to the Military Committee, and Li Benyi was dismissed from his posts as commissioner of the 5th Anhui District and commander of the 10 th Guerrilla Column, and he was reappointed commander of the 138th Division of the 48 th Army. The report on Li Benyi was reported to the Ministry of Military Affairs, and Bai Chongxi, deputy chief of staff and director of the Military Training Department, saw the transfer of two generals involved in the Gui Army, and called Liu Fei, director of the first department of the Military Command Department, to discuss it. Liu Fei is well aware of the situation of the Gui Army system, first of all, he cut off the name of Mo Di from the quota of the advanced training class of the Guilin Sixth Army Branch in July of the 30th year of the Republic of China, and changed it to the Sixth Army Branch of Guilin in June of the 31st year of the Republic of China for one year of supplementary training. Bai Chongxi asked with a smile, why did the two-year study become a one-year make-up training? Liu Fei told him that from the 25th to the 26th year of the Republic of China, Mo Di had participated in more than a year of training at the Nanning Military Academy, and then moved to Guilin with the military academy. When he goes back to school, it should not be a refresher but a make-up training, and as long as he completes the rest of the courses, he can be considered a graduate. Bai Chongxi asked strangely, why can't he participate in this year's supplementary training but put it next year? Liu Fei told him that it was all for that Li Benyi.

In Liu Fei's view, the 138th Division to be led by Li Benyi is currently the weakest division in the garrison in the Anqing area, while Tan Heyi's 176th Division is the most powerful division. There is only one reason why the 176th Division is strong, that is, because there is an invincible existence, and the 176th Division's several brilliant operations in Anqing are all invincible and play the role of anchoring the sea. Li Benyi and Mo Di are friends of life and death, and if he wants to lead the 138th Division to open up a new situation in the Anqing area, there is only one person who can help him, and that is Mo Di.

Bai Chongxi laughed and said, I asked Wei Yongcheng to tell him that he must settle down in order to get another chance. Liu Fei asked puzzledly, how can I settle down? Bai Chongxi said that marrying a wife and settling down can only be happy when the so-called settling down can he be happy. Liu Fei also smiled and asked, Mo Dehong of the 48th Army married a little wife in Lu'an and had children, even if he didn't settle down here, why didn't he go further, but asked him to return to Guangxi and serve as the commander of the Xunwu Division. Bai Chongxi didn't answer, looked up at the sky, and after a long while, he said lightly that this position was more suitable for him. Liu Fei knew that Bai Chongxi liked to stay on the front line with people who could fight, the so-called incompetence of one general, exhausting the three armies, and between virtue and talent, he had the upper hand.

From Xin'an to cross the green grass separation, through the chashui against the water over Maojian Mountain, Mo Enemy led his troops to walk for three days before returning to Paradise. When he entered the regimental headquarters headquarters, he had not yet sat down, but he found that the people from the division headquarters were waiting for him at the headquarters of the Yebu Regiment, and the people who came politely told Mo Di that the division commander invited him to drink celebration wine. Mo Di smiled wryly, and said if he could let him take a bath, change his clothes and then go, and the people who came also smiled and said, Sir Mo is joking, how can there be such a thing as taking a bath at home when you go to the soup pool, you have to go to the soup pool. Mo Di was right to think about it, brought some change of clothes, sat in the car from the division headquarters, and went to the soup pool with a cigarette.

Sitting in the hot spring, Mo Di kept thinking, Tan Heyi took the wrong line, and he was so anxious to come to the division by himself, it was definitely not as simple as a celebration banquet.
