Chapter 13: Changing Guards (9)

It's finally out! After receiving the news from the reconnaissance company from Shengqiao, Li Benyi suddenly felt a little itchy on the tip of his buttocks. He prepared a table of good dishes, and the guests were finally arriving, and only the people who tasted them knew whether they were delicious or not. In the past two days, Li Benyi's preparations were not inadequate, the horizontal trenches and the vertical passages, and the stones within a radius of two miles were moved, built into stone walls, cut down pine logs, erected on the top of the trenches, and then pressed on sacks full of dirt, ordinary 75 mountain cannons, and did not want to smash them open. Li Benyi believes that with such a solid fortification, even if a Japanese army wing comes, it can block it for ten days and half a month, not to mention that it is only an infantry brigade, with only 70 infantry guns. It was only the second news from the reconnaissance company, which immediately reduced Li Benyi's excitement by half, and the reconnaissance company's information said that the equipment level of this Japanese infantry brigade was not low, and the ordinary infantry brigade had only one infantry artillery squad and two 70-caliber Type 92 infantry guns, which was twice as large as this brigade. On top of that, there were not only four 70 infantry guns, but also a covert gas special forces. The Japanese army's poison gas units are not just a few divisions, and the entire Japanese military headquarters has only a few poison gas units, which are very precious, and they need the assistance of the poison gas troops, and they must be reported in the form of written reports in advance; this time, the 116th Division was able to obtain the support of the poison gas special forces, which fully reflected the importance that the Nanjing Front Army Headquarters attached to this campaign.

The method of distinguishing the poison gas special forces is very simple, a small unit that is completely separated from the large unit, eating, drinking, and living together, and these people seem to have a habit of cleanliness, washing themselves all day and night, which is recognizable at a glance by experienced scouts. Li Benyi's guard captain, that is, the company commander of the reconnaissance company, was a veteran who had participated in the Jinpu South Road operation, and he had a deep memory of the poison gas bombs raging in the 13th Division at that time, and it was not difficult to recognize such a group in the Japanese army at a glance.

"Gas bombs!" When the deputy division commander Cui Jian heard the gas bomb, his face turned pale immediately, he was very afraid of this thing, this thing does not distinguish whether you are a soldier or a commander, as long as it is panting, it will be treated equally.

"Scared?" Li Benyi asked with a smile.

"It's false to say that you're not afraid." Cui Jiancheng said truthfully: "I still saw poison gas bombs when I was fighting south of Jinpu Road, and in the past two years, our division has not encountered a poison gas bomb strike, and we are not well prepared." Division commander, it's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that under the blow of poison gas bombs, we can't withstand it. At that time, the soldiers were scared away, and even if the two of us would rather die than retreat, it would be useless to stand in the front line. ”

Li Ben nodded his head, and under the poison gas, there was only one way to retreat. This time, the Japanese army had infantry artillery, as well as curved guns, and using curved guns to fire poison gas bombs could be effective from a long distance, and it was indeed difficult to prevent.

Liu Qinglong and Wei Jiebo were called together to discuss, but there was no result, Liu Qinglong asked Li Benyi to send a telegram to Gong Qingyuan, the chief of staff, to ask what tricks he had, and Gong Qingyuan, who had already arrived in Sanhe, gave a very simple opinion, so that Li Benyi could always consult Mo Enemy.

When he received Li Benyi's telegram, Mo Di had already joined Shi Chongbu and arrived at the mud bridge, looking at the telegram in his hand, Mo Di had no idea for a while, the poison gas bomb has always been a big killing weapon, whoever dares to use it, the opponent will be in trouble. I don't know how many people there are in this gas bomb unit sent by the 116th Division, how many poison gas bombs are equipped with, how many are there, and what kind of gas bombs there are.

Seeing Mo Di's helpless expression after receiving the telegram, Huang Yingyi, chief of staff of the guard battalion, asked, "What problem did the boss encounter?" ”

Mo Di raised his head and looked at Huang Yingyi, smiled, and said: "Commander Li of the 138th Division sent a telegram, they found that the opponent had brought special ammunition, and asked me if I had a good way to crack special ammunition. I'm trying to figure it out. ”

"Hey, boss, don't think about this kind of thing, professional things are thought about by professional people, and about special bombs, it's better to call Panlong to ask, to ensure that it is more effective than you want to break your head." Huang Yingyi said lightly.

"Hehehehehe, really!" Mo Di thought about it, this is the reason, looked at the telegram on the table, and asked Huang Yingyi to send someone to invite Panlong.

Huang Yingyi picked up the telegram on the table and glanced at it, and said: "Master Li Benyi and Master Li Shizuo have been recuperating in Mingguang for the past two years, and they have degraded a little, and they have lost a lot of courage to jump to the Fuchun River in the cold winter. Yesterday I came by car, I was bored in the car, and our battalion commander told a lot of stories about Division Commander Li, and I felt quite heroic, what a special bomb scared him. ”

"You can't say that." Mo Di said: "Poison gas bombs kill people invisibly, and no one is not afraid." In the past two years, on the front line of the two lakes, the damage caused by poison gas bombs has been very enormous, and in some cases, poison gas bombs have become a decisive factor. It was even more tragic in North China, where the Japanese army could not distinguish who was a soldier and who was a civilian, and often used poison gas bombs to make a pot and create a no-man's land. Because we have a spy company and know about poison gas bombs, we are not so unfamiliar with them, so we are not so afraid. This time, we can't stand idly by, we have to find some way for Brother Li Guang, otherwise, if the battle is fought, the two regiments of the 138th Division will survive at most two battalions. ”

"Won't Senior Commander Li retreat?" Huang Yingyi asked puzzled.

"I've seen Li Benyi who jumped into the river, but I can't see Li Benyi who retreated." Mo Di said: "I and Li Benyi have been brothers for more than ten years, this person, he doesn't blink when he kills the enemy, he doesn't blink when he kills himself, he never takes life and death seriously, he is a natural killer!" According to what I knew about him in the past, he would never ask anyone for advice, and this time he was able to telegraph and consult with me, which was already a great improvement. ”

"That's also because you have a good relationship with him, if you change someone, it is estimated that Master Li will not speak." Huang Yingyi said.

Mo Di nodded: "Since I asked, I can't help but answer." ”

While he was talking, Pan Long walked in, stood up and saluted, and took the telegram handed over by Mo Di.

"Boss, I guess the Japanese army, like us, brought tear gas bombs, either red bullets or green bullets." Pan Long said: "Because of the use of other bombs, it will not be able to enter the poison release area for a long time after the poison gas is released, which is not conducive to continuing the army." The gas bomb is dissipated very quickly, has a good effect in driving away, and the lethality is not strong, most of them are just uncomfortable and incapacitated, and it is difficult to cause death if it is not in a closed environment. However, as a special forces, they will not only carry one poison gas bomb, even if they do not carry yellow bombs, they will definitely choose one of the two types of green tea. For example, our mission in this operation is to take down the opponent's baggage team, and it is enough to have green bullets, but we still bring a small number of brown bullets just in case. ”

Next, Pan Long briefly popularized the knowledge of poison gas bombs to Mo Di and Huang Yingyi, the red bullet is the red No. 1 diphenylcyanide arsine bullet, which is a disabling poison and a kind of sneezing poison, the poisoned person will cause continuous sneezing, tears and vomiting, but as long as you quickly escape from the poisoning area, you can avoid poisoning. On the Two Lakes front, this type of ammunition was the most used by the Japanese army. Green bullet is green No. 1 phenychloroacetone bomb, which is a kind of tear gas poison, which irritates the eyes and respiratory tract, causes tearing, runny nose, conjunctival hyperemia and coughing, etc., and acts quickly. High concentrations may cause rapid and severe poisoning, and even fatal. It was this bullet that Zhang Guangwei hit when he was fighting on Jinpu South Road. Qing Dan, also known as Qing No. 1, also known as phosgene, is a kind of asphyxiating poison, through respiratory poisoning, mild poisoning of tears, photophobia, pharyngeal discomfort, cough, chest tightness, moderate poisoning of mild dyspnea, severe cough, respiratory distress. Severe cases result in immediate death. Back then, when I was diving in the river, it was this poisonous gas that was invincible. Tea bomb, also called tea No. 1, hydrocyanic acid poison gas, is a kind of toxic poison in the whole body, is a kind of fast-killing poison, can quickly kill. The last time I attacked Dalongshan Airport, I used Cha No. 1. As for the yellow bullet mustard gas and Louis gas, the spies of the Wild Supplement Regiment did not even have it, and Panlong only knew theoretically that this was the king of poison gas bombs, which was an erosive poison, and the middle one could not escape death. Speaking of this, Pan Long changed his words and said to Mo Di: "Boss, can you think of a way to swallow the Japanese army's poison gas troops, our poison gas bombs are used less and less, and they have not been replenished, this is an opportunity." ”

Huang Yingyi was stunned, others were still thinking about how to escape the blow of the Japanese special forces, this one is good, and he has already hit them with his idea.

Mo Enemy laughed out loud, he liked Panlong's idea, creative, guns and ammunition can be replenished by seizure, this gas bomb is really one less than one, the last attack on Dalongshan Airport, Tea No. 1 was not used less, it was used so much that Panlong was heartbroken, he didn't want his spy company to run out of gas bombs, and finally became an infantry company.

"Our biggest problem right now is that we don't have the skills." Mo Di sighed and said: "The baggage team that came from Wuwei will not reach the mud bridge until evening, and we will definitely eat this enemy, and laugh at the gifts they have sent from afar before we can turn around and go north." Even if he leaves after the battle, he will not be able to reach the eastern front battlefield of Yefu Mountain until early tomorrow morning, but I am afraid that by then, the battle will have already been fought. ”

Pan Long also looked disappointed.

"Then don't let them fight so quickly." Huang Yingyi said that seeing Mo Di and the others looking at him, Huang Yingyi continued: "Even if there is a fight, the other party will not be given the opportunity to use poison gas bombs. ”

"As long as the other side does not release poison gas bombs, an infantry brigade of the Japanese army will not be able to break through the defense line of the two regiments of Division Commander Li." Ishiger, who walked into the house from the outside, said: "So I think that this time the Japanese army will bet on poison gas bombs, and they will definitely try their best to create opportunities to use poison gas bombs, and even take the lead in using poison gas bombs at the beginning of the battle." The Japanese are well aware of the habits of the 138th Division, as long as it is dispersed, it will definitely be crushed for thousands of miles, and the last battle in Tongdong was to retreat to Shucheng Wanfo Lake. If the eastern front is defeated with one blow this time, the Japanese army can divide its troops into two routes, to meet Sanhe in the north and Niqiao in the south, and the He'an line will be successfully opened. ”

"Makes sense!" Mo Di agrees with Shi Chong's opinion, over the years, Shi Chong has followed himself to fight in the south and the north, and has become very mature, not only has tactical experience, but also has begun to develop to the strategic level. If he leaves the field supplement regiment, Luo Wei will take over his position, and Shi will be the deputy of the regiment, absolutely competent.

"Then we'll find a way to make it impossible for them to fight." Huang Yingyi's words make people feel a little naïve.

However, Mo Di didn't think so, but under the inspiration of Huang Yingyi, he thought hard. On the table, he picked up the big baby cigarette of Ishizhong, took out one, sniffed it under his nose, and put it back down.

"Find a way to put it off." Mo Dou's voice was not high, but it was resolute.

"Send a report to Senior Commander Li." At this time, Mo Dou was very rigorous, Huang Yingyi casually picked up a record book on the table, held it on his left wrist, and held a pen in his right hand, ready to record.

"Brother Li Guang, as for the matter of destroying the enemy's poison gas troops, Brother Yu believes that it is necessary to avoid its front first, and then control the enemy. Today, Wei Jiebo's regiment was in charge of the defensive position on Yefu Mountain, and Liu Qinglong's regiment was divided into pieces and harassed along the road from Shengqiao to Yefu Mountain, slowing down the enemy's advance and striving not to have a frontal conflict with the enemy today. After completing the mission, the younger brother will immediately go north, strive to rush to you before dawn tomorrow, and take effective action against the enemy's poison gas troops. Brother Tianzhong. ”

Receiving Mo Di's telegram, Li Benyi was a little unhappy, why wait until you Mo Tianzong came to do it, could it be that without you, I wouldn't be able to clean up a Japanese infantry brigade. I want to think so, but I can't help but take the invincible suggestion, Liu Qinglong's harassment along the way is a good move, and the target of harassment should be placed on the Japanese army's 70-caliber 92 infantry artillery squadron and special forces, if the harassment can inflict a certain blow on these two, it will be considered a success. The Japanese army without artillery is a toothless tiger, and the Japanese army without special ammunition is on the same level as itself, and the strength is equal, so it can take the lead. As soon as Li Ben thought of this, he decided to give an order according to Mo Di's suggestion.

Liu Qinglong's troops received the order, quickly left Yefu Mountain, and under the guidance of the reconnaissance company, rushed in the direction of Shengqiao.
