Chapter 9: Behind Enemy Lines (49)

After running wildly for a day and a night, Qian Kun returned to Wangjiang.

In Jiangtang, Hao Wenbo's Wang Xianlin battalion caused them a lot of trouble, Wang Xianlin was ambushed in front of Jiangtang early, as soon as the vanguard of the Japanese army entered their ambush range, they did not hesitate to fire, the Japanese army who was beaten to a stomach was on fire, and the level of military technical warfare at the bottom of the box was stimulated, and a tactical rolled over the gopher like a ditch, almost at the same time, the bullet of the 38 big cover was loaded, and in less than three seconds, the first bullet to return fire was shot.

Once the opportunity was lost, the two sides of the battle were judged to be superior, and although the Japanese army only had two squads, they had the upper hand. Because they were ambushed by Wang Xianlin before, there were less than 100 Japanese soldiers left, and a considerable part of them were wounded soldiers with blood dripping from their bodies. Wang Xianlin's number is three times that of the other party, so he can't have an advantage, it must not be a level of competition, whether it is the accuracy of the bullet or the accuracy of the action, there is a world of difference. The Japanese army shot a headshot, straight to Wang Xianlin all over the cold, taking advantage of the opponent's rear army did not catch up, the Japanese army also just shot with themselves, did not form a charge, at this time do not go more waiting, three hundred people at the same time threw out a *, blown up dusty, by the cover of smoke and dust, Wang Xianlin's battalion turned around and ran out of the ambush circle, carrying the dead on his back, with the wounded, straight to the stone plate.

In this ambush, the target was the front of Qian Kun's remnants, so the Japanese were killed and wounded. Wang Xianlin's battalion was fully formed, and one shot was fired by one person, that is, more than 300 shots, and more than 300 shots hit more than 100 people, and it was still somewhat effective; after investigation, the Japanese soldiers were killed 33 people and 42 wounded, and more than half of them were killed or wounded, which was actually the largest loss in this operation. Jin Xi crossed the long river in the wind and waves, but he didn't expect to capsize in the gutter of the river pond, Zhong Zenggen was so angry that his stomach was on fire, and his face was dark. Before, it had always been the loss of the Founding Army, the Japanese army suffered little losses, Qian Kun only said that the quality of the Japanese army was far above himself, after the battle of Jiangtang, the Japanese army was still dead and wounded, Qian Kun only then let out a turbid breath, it turned out that the little devil was not much different from his own founding army.

After that, although he walked very fast, he was cautious and did not dare to make any mistakes, and after returning to Xuqiao to join the troops who had stayed here before, he did not dare to stop any longer, and walked back to Wangjiang overnight.

Although Wu Wannian had already set up a position, seeing the Japanese puppet army walking in front of him, he did not dare to attack again, because he found that although the defeated army was walking in front of him, he defended it in an extremely orderly manner, and there was no chance to take advantage of it at all.

Qian Kun was defeated, and in Wang Zhanlin's expectation, it was also in line with Wang Zhanlin's wishes. Under the careful arrangement of well-intentioned people, Qian Kun's defeat was invisibly magnified, and he returned in vain in a battle, losing his troops and losing his generals, and it was difficult to escape the crime. The day after returning to Wangjiang, Qian Kun, under the supervision of the law enforcement team, boarded a ship bound for Nanjing, where he was greeted by a military court. Qian Kun had just boarded the ship, and the appointment and dismissal order from Nanjing had already arrived in Wangjiang, and Qian Kun was dismissed from the post of head of the Wangjiang Garrison Regiment of the founding army of the People's Republic of China, and Wang Zhanlin, commander of the Lujiang Pacification Zone, was concurrently appointed by Wang Zhanlin, commander of the cursor, and finally had his first physical regiment, although the total number of this regiment was already less than two battalions.

In Wangjiang City, some people laugh and some are sad, some people raise their glasses to celebrate, and some people raise glasses to eliminate sorrows. It's just that these have nothing to do with the invincible in Taihu City, he has fallen into deep contemplation, in front of him, there is a thin telegraph, the words on the paper are also very simple, but he has been reading for almost an hour. In the command headquarters, it was quiet, and the people who came and went tried not to make a sound, and everyone knew that they could not interfere with their boss at this time.

Jiang Chunyang took Ouyang Jin to sit in the courtyard with a noble selection of thin monkeys, only letting Qin Guosheng look at Mo Di from a distance, ready to obey Mo Di's call at any time. After a good battle, Gao Guixuan couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and said to Jiang Chunyang: "Deputy seat, what's wrong with the group seat, he is not happy after such a good battle!" Ouyang Jin and the thin monkey also looked at Jiang Chunyang with inquiring eyes, wondering what was the matter that made Mo Di like this. They all know that this kind of invincible must have encountered something particularly head-wrenching.

After cleaning up the battlefield, cleaning up the mess, putting the prisoners in order, and gathering the loot, the three guys came to the headquarters in a hurry, and were blocked by Jiang Chunyang at the door, only to find that the atmosphere in the headquarters was completely different from the outside.

"Take the telegram from the division." Jiang Chunyang said: "The Japanese army attacked Pingjiang and repaired the water, and attacked Changsha in a big way. ”

"Changsha is so far away, what does it have to do with us?" The skinny monkey blurted out.

"You can't say that." Ouyang Jin said: "The War of Resistance is a game of chess, which affects the whole body, don't look at the place where the war took place far away in Hunan and Jiangxi, in fact, it still has a great impact on us." ”

"Yes!" Jiang Chunyang said: "The division headquarters wants us to enter the Yangtze River route, try to destroy the enemy's Yangtze River transportation, destroy the enemy's logistics and supplies, and fully support the battle of Changsha." ”

"Tell us about the general trend of the world during this time!" Gao Guixuan said: "During this period of time, we only cared about the three acres of land around us, and we were a little light on the whole situation, although we beat Liu Maizai and won Qian Kun, the situation in the six counties of Anqing West is very good, I don't know what happened to other regions!" ”

Jiang Chunyang nodded, and explained the current situation of friend and foe: "Last October, the Japanese army occupied Wuhan, which on the surface seemed to be victorious, and drove our government to the Fudu Chongqing, but in fact it has fallen into our heavy encirclement. In Jiang Chunyang's description, several people gradually had a clearer understanding of the situation, although the Japanese army occupied Wuhan, but south of the Yangtze River was the 9th theater commanded by Chen Cheng and Xue Yue, with 52 infantry divisions; North of the Yangtze River is the 5th Theater commanded by Li Zongren, with 35 infantry divisions, and has formed an encirclement posture against Wuhan. At the beginning of the year, the 11th Army of the Japanese Army was under the jurisdiction of the 3rd, 6th, 9th, 13th, 16th, 101st, 106th divisions and the 14th independent mixed brigade, in March, the 33rd and 34th divisions were incorporated into the 11th Army sequence, and in June, the 9th and 16th divisions were replaced and returned to China for rest. In the Wuhan area, there were still seven divisions and one independent brigade.

In this year, the commander of the 11th Army, Okamura Ninji, launched the Battle of Nanchang and the Battle of Suizao in spring and summer, and after these two operations, the Japanese army captured Nanchang and repelled the counteroffensive of the Chinese army in the 9th theater, obtained the southeast barrier of the Wuhan security circle, and opened the passage to Changsha; At the same time, the troops of the 5th theater of operations were attacked in the north, and the positions east of the Hanshui were maintained, temporarily alleviating Jiangbei's worries. After several months of sending a large amount of supplies to the Yangtze River route, recuperating and recuperating, the 11th Army withstood the Fifth Theater north of the Yangtze River with the 3rd, 13th, and 34th divisions, and concentrated about 200,000 troops of the 6th, 33rd, 101st, and 106th divisions and three brigades (including one brigade and one brigade of the navy and one brigade of the aviation force). This time, the direction of attack they chose was still the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway, and the first stop was bound to be Changsha.

In order to win the Battle of Changsha, the most important task was to cut off the Japanese army's logistical supply, and the most important thing was the Yangtze River route, so the unified order given by the General Staff of the Central Military Commission to all the departments along the Yangtze River was to try every means to disrupt the Japanese army's Yangtze River transportation, and no matter what method was adopted, it would be directly approved, and no matter how much it would cost. As the actual person in charge of the Yangtze River defense line in the Anqing area, Mo Di shoulders a heavy responsibility.

Ouyang Jin couldn't help nodding, he was a military cadet, he had a concept of a game of chess in his heart, it was easy to understand the meaning of the above, and he kept shaking his head, how can we deal with the big ship in the Yangtze River, it is a big iron ship armed to the teeth, and it is hundreds of tons and thousands of tons when it moves, and we can't move a single regiment! This task is only afraid that it will be difficult to complete.

No wonder Mo Di has been in the command headquarters for an hour without moving!

I don't know how much it has passed, but someone from the room said that the meal was ready, and the brothers were waiting for the celebration banquet, but a few people did not sit at the table. Jiang Chunyang smiled dumbly, and was about to go in to greet Mo Di, but he saw that Mo Di had already walked out, his face was very normal and cheerful, and he said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, eat first, after such a good battle, we can't let the Japanese army so far away from Hunan and Jiangxi interrupt our Yaxing." ”

Ouyang Jin and the others all stood up, looking at Mo Di with a smile on their faces, Mo Di's relaxed demeanor should have found a solution. The thin monkey walked up to Mo Di and asked, "Boss, look at your appearance, but have you found a trick to break the enemy?" ”

"!" Mo Di said angrily: "I thought about it for a long time, I didn't have a clue at all, I didn't want to, I ate first, maybe drank two cups, and I was inspired." ”

The thin monkey laughed: "It's extreme, it's extreme, this kind of thing, if you don't drink, you must not be able to figure it out." ”

Ouyang Jin shook his head, these guys, not like ordinary soldiers in the war, and even more not like ordinary soldiers after the war, not only drinking, but also acting like a high-roller in the rivers and lakes, Huang Tianhua was there before, and he basically had to worry about big and small things, but now Huang Tianhua is gone, Jiang Chunyang is a layman again, and Chief of Staff Zhao Guolong is still studying in Guilin, no one really cares about these things, but fortunately, all the ministries have been running maturely, and Qin Guosheng has picked up the gaps, so there will be no problems. Ouyang Jin knew that sometimes, he, the commander of the first battalion, had to worry about some other things! Let the thin monkey tell Qin Guosheng that he is responsible for vigilance, and at the same time order his battalion to keep a company without drinking, pay close attention to the surrounding situation, and be responsible for the safety of the headquarters, but he can't be careless and overturn the big ship in the gutter.

The banquet was held in the barracks, it was very lively, there were more than 100 tables, and there were a lot of delicious dishes on the table, and the dishes were still being served. Mo Di glanced at it, and there were not only Ouyang Jin and Gao Guixuan's two battalions and the thin monkey assault company sitting around the banquet, but also a lot of local people. Seeing him come in, several decent armor guards in Jinxi Town greeted him. The secretary told Mo Di that a small part of this set of banquets was made by the house, and most of them were sent over by the chief of Jinxi Old Street on the west bank of the Changhe River with many people and a slip of burden, all of which were good food. Qian Kun was in a hurry, and he didn't take away any grain and grass chewing, and became the raw materials for the armor chiefs, got a few pigs, killed some chickens and ducks, and made it not ordinary and rich. The armor chiefs also organized a group of people to fish out the dead bodies of the founding army in the long river, and dug a deep pit with the corpses on the shore to bury them.

In the corner of the banquet, there was a group of people whose expressions were not very natural and not very harmonious as a whole, that is, the prisoners captured in this battle, the thin monkey took the prisoners caught by the small stone bridge and the collection by the long river, and the number of people reached two hundred and seventeen, eleven people per table, and there were actually twenty large tables. They looked at the celebration banquet in front of them, with a wry smile on their faces, and the captives also celebrated, what is this! Or an old village chief on the east side of the Jin Lake in the east of the Changhe River has experience, and said to more than 200 prisoners, there is food and food, now it is a national war, everyone has only one opponent is the Japanese, as long as they turn their guns to fight the Japanese, this celebration banquet will have their share.

The company commander, the highest-ranking pioneer among the captives, told the old village chief with a wry smile that he also wanted to fight the Japanese, but his family members lived in Japanese-occupied areas, and he was afraid that he would implicate them. Now that he has become a prisoner, as long as he tells his family that he died on the battlefield, he can fight Japan incognito and peace of mind, and his parents, wife and children will not be implicated. The old village chief was happy and said, this is not good, you can't say death, as soon as you hear that you are dead, I am afraid that Lao Tzu Niang will die of grief on the spot, and the next thing is that the wife will remarry, the son will change his surname, and the family will be separated, that is the sin! After listening to this, the pseudo-company commander lowered his head heavily and stopped making a sound.
