Chapter 470
Someone in the house at the entrance of the village was looking vigilantly in the distance, which was the sentry arranged by Shang Zhen.
A bunch of scattered blue smoke had risen in the village. When you walk closer, you will see a large pot in a yard. Naturally, there is firewood burning under the pot.
But a few soldiers were very busy, but they kept fanning the blue smoke produced by the burning with their wet clothes.
So the green smoke became messy and no longer a bunch, and it would no longer produce the effect of "single smoke from the desert".
This is Wang Laomao’s idea.
After marching in the rain for a long time, and after another battle, everyone was already hungry.
They found rice in the cellars of the rich villagers in the village, and no one wanted to eat raw rice.
Then the problem arises, cooking with fire can easily expose your target.
Wang Laomao said that when he was a beard, he was surrounded by the government army to get a bite of hot rice.
I can make a wild stove. The method is to dig a big hole on the ground, put the pot on it, and light the fire in the hole.
Dig a few more small trenches at the edge of the pit and cover them with branches, so that the smoke produced during burning will be diluted during the discharge process.
When the mountain wind blows, the smoke will dissipate. You can't see bundles of blue smoke rising in the distance.
But now Shang Zhen and the others can't just dig that big hole.
So Wang Laomao thought of this trick. The people below used firewood to cook, and sent a few people to use clothes to disperse the green smoke.
At this time, Shang Zhen and the others were no longer in a hurry to go to Songjiang County. There were two reasons. One was He Xiangcai who told them that they were only more than four miles away from Songjiang County. Shang Zhen and the others were in the rain and went wrong.
direction.
Another reason is naturally that Shang Zhen heard that a security brigade was guarding Songjiang County. He didn't want to enter the position war too early, so he wanted to see the news before talking about it.
Amid everyone's expectations, the big pot of rice was finally cooked. The pot was printed with 12 pieces, which was enough for those thirty or so people.
After eating, Shang Zhen and the others asked He Xiang, Fan, shovel, Qiao Xiong and the other three of them were here?
It turned out that these three people were also considered defeated soldiers. By chance, the three people formed a team with several other Chinese soldiers, and were chased by the Japanese army.
In the end, their companions were all killed and the three of them were blocked in the small building. At the critical moment, Shang Zhen and the others arrived.
At this time, Shang Zhen asked He Xiangcai and the others to talk about their own troops. They knew too little about other miscellaneous troops.
The so-called Hunan Army refers to Hunan.
The Hunan Army has combat effectiveness, which has a historical tradition. I think Zeng Guofan’s troops when fighting against the Taiping Army were the Hunan Army, and he is known for his bravery and toughness.
During this Battle of Shanghai, the Hunan Army was the first miscellaneous army to enter the battlefield.
The Hunan Army has participated in the war by more than 80,000, making it the most involved in the various miscellaneous troops. It performed extremely well in the battle, but the losses were equally heavy.
Hunan soldiers are found in all factions in the south, so there is a saying that Hunan cannot become an army.
And in the war of resistance not long afterwards, an extremely loud saying that was highly praised by later generations was circulated: "If China is to perish, unless the Hunanese die first!"
After talking about the Hunan Army, Fan Changdan, who was a member of the Gui Army, talked about the Gui Army again.
Before someone in Nanjing nominally unified China, China was full of warlords and endless wars.
The Gui Army is the only local faction among the local warlords that can compete with someone's Central Army. It can be called a fighter in the miscellaneous army, which is the Guangxi Coyote Soldier who was talked about by later military fans.
The Gui army's achievements during the warlord melee period were eye-catching. It was the only army among the major local power factions in China that could compete with the Central Army. It can be called a "fighter among miscellaneous troops.
When the Gui army joined the war, the Japanese army had already broken through the southern bank of Qizaogang, and at that time the Gui army launched a large-scale counterattack against the Japanese army.
They were divided into two wings, from Tan Jiatou, and Chen Jiaxing launched a fierce attack.
But it was their first time to fight with the Japanese army. The method of fighting was limited by the experience of past civil wars. It could not be said to be a human-sea tactic, but it also launched a charge with battalions.
When fighting a civil war, the Gui army encountered ordinary warlords, and this style of fighting was still very effective. As long as it entered hand-to-hand combat, the Gui army could basically win.
But this time they faced the Japanese army with well-equipped and heavy firepower. Although they charged bravely, they only increased casualties and did not make up for it. Only when they used their bodies to block bullets were consumed in large quantities, they occupied Chen Jiaxing and Taoyuan.
Hama position.
At this time, the Japanese army released smoke bombs as cover when attacking. The Gui army mistakenly thought it was poisonous gas, so they panicked at that time, and their positions were also broken through by the Japanese army. It was a pity that the only large-scale counterattack on the battlefield of Songhu.
"That person died-" After talking about the general experience, Fan Changang sighed, "I haven't fallen asleep for two nights. Once I close my eyes, my eyes were filled with the arms of my brothers who were blown away by the Japanese devils.
Legs.”
Shang Zhen could only express silence when it comes to Fan Shantiao's narration.
What could he say? He instinctively felt that the way of playing like Gui Jun was wrong.
It is said that killing a thousand enemies will damage yourself by 800, but with this kind of fighting style of Gui Army, you will not lose five thousand if you kill a thousand enemies!
Shang Zhen didn't know that what he guessed was right and wrong.
The right place is when the Gui army fought against the Japanese army, the war loss ratio between the two sides was really 5:1. However, this 5:1 battle loss ratio is not the highest in this Battle of Songhu.
The battle loss ratio between the enemy and us even reached 10:1!
But these 10:1 are just an average, which means that some armies have already suffered more than ten or one losses when they face the Japanese army!
Western powers have long entered the era of industrialization, and Japan has entered a quasi-industrial era.
Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, China has not kept up with the world and is still addicted to its dream of a great country. When the great powers opened the country's door with strong ships and powerful cannons, although we have the courage to recommend Xuanyuan with my blood,
The price this pays is too great!
If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is the only law in the jungle world where the strong prey on the weak!
"Everyone has said it, why don't you talk about your army?" At this time, Ma Tianfang asked Qiao Xiong who was fiddling with a grenade launcher.
"I have nothing to say. We mainly guard the roads and bridges." Qiao Xiong, who was short and thin, whispered.
Then everyone saw him stretching his arms forward, erecting his thumb, and making gestures to the distance.
"Are you measuring distance?" Chu Tian asked curiously.
Qiao Xiong nodded without saying a word, then poked the grenade barrel to the ground and held it with his hands, constantly correcting the inclination of the bullet barrel there.
"You can measure distances? Have you ever hit this thing?" Xiao Wuji asked curiously.
"I've fought once." Qiao Xiong replied.
"Are you fighting accurately?" several people asked at this time, including Shang Zhen.
Shang Zhen and the others only know how to use grenade launchers and know that Qiao Xiong's method of raising his thumb in front of him is a method of measuring distance.
Most of them also know this method during special training, but they are not proficient in using grenade launchers. They really don’t have any talent in using grenade launchers.
"It's okay, I hit 6 shots in total and three shots." Qiao Xiong replied.
