Five hundred and eighty-eighth chapter fat to the mouth
Chapter 588 The fat in your mouth
Time flew by quickly like running water. In the blink of an eye, a trace of white fish belly appeared in the eastern sky, and a trace of light slowly appeared in the dark night sky. Everything indicated that
, a new day is coming soon... After a night of bloody battles, the gunfire that roared all night outside the north gate of Baishan County finally slowly stopped...
The two main regiments of the 13th Division responsible for the main attack lived up to their high expectations. After paying the price of nearly a thousand casualties, they finally successfully broke through the four lines of Japanese defense and advanced their front to less than five kilometers away from Baishan County.
km area…
The heavy howitzer battalion of the artillery regiment, with 12 105mm heavy howitzers, under the personal orders of commander Zhou Baozhong, was continuously firing large-caliber shells into Baishan County...
As huge fireballs rose in Baishan County, the tents of the Japanese and puppet troops in the county immediately turned into balls of fire... One by one, the unlucky Japanese and puppet troops also heard the explosion of the artillery shells.
, reporting to their emperor one after another...
Under the constant threat of 12 heavy howitzers outside the city and the constant explosions of shells in the city, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto felt for the first time that death was so close to him. The division had already made the decision to shrink its defenses.
The regiment leader, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto, without any hesitation, immediately ordered the two infantry regiments stationed outside the city to quickly assemble in a forced march. Then, reinforcements were sent to Baishan County...
As a result, with Baishan County as the center, the Japanese army deployed a tight blockade around the base area. Because of Lieutenant General Yoshimoto's order, with the departure of two infantry regiments and more than 6,000 Japs, the situation immediately became
There are loopholes everywhere…
The Japanese Hanzhuang stronghold, after the arrival of the Yoshimoto Division and half a month of expansion, has become a large stronghold with two Japanese infantry squadrons and a Manchurian battalion...
The entire stronghold, centered on a turret more than ten meters high, has built more than a dozen huge bunkers. As for the bunkers, there is a huge trench with a width of five meters, which completely isolates the entire stronghold. At the same time, this
The trench also became a huge obstacle on the Eighth Route Army's offensive path...
With the strong fortifications of the entire stronghold, sufficient garrison strength, and sufficient supplies and ammunition, the entire Hanzhuang stronghold is like a nail, blocking the base area...
And just now, as Lieutenant General Yoshimoto issued the order to shrink the defense, a group of two squadrons of Japanese troops stayed in the Hanzhuang stronghold, in this turtle shell. After leaving a small team of troops to assist the Manchurian Army in defending the stronghold.
More than 300 troops, armed with most of the heavy weapons in the store, rushed out of their turtle shells and rushed to reinforce the division headquarters more than ten kilometers away in the direction of Baishan County...
Of course, the changes in the Hanzhuang stronghold did not escape the eyes of Liu Hua around him.
At this moment, Commander Liu Hua was leading an army of more than 10,000 people, hiding in a small forest less than two kilometers away from the Hanzhuang stronghold. He was holding a pair of binoculars and motionlessly observing the empty troops.
, but the brightly lit Hanzhuang stronghold was illuminated by a few searchlights...
"Commander, Commander Zhou's telegram... the transfer of the tiger out of the mountain has been successful. In addition, except for a battalion of Manchurian troops and less than fifty Japanese soldiers from the Hanzhuang stronghold, the remaining main Japanese troops have all left. The troops are ready for action.
..." The voice of the communications staff officer of the headquarters reached Liu Hua's ears...
"Okay, our opportunity has finally come. Correspondent, order the Second Special Forces Regiment to quietly capture the Hanzhuang stronghold in the shortest possible time. Go now, the sooner the better, but we must
Ensure the quality of the mission..." In an instant, Liu Hua, who had been nervous just now, immediately showed a smile on his face. He whispered an order to his personal correspondent behind him...
Following Liu Hua's order, nearly a thousand officers and soldiers of the Second Special Operations Regiment emerged from the woods where they were hiding. In less than a few seconds, nearly a thousand troops disappeared into the dark night...
Looking at the disappearing Second Special Forces Regiment, Commander Liu Hua, his heart that had just been relieved became tense again. A pair of eyes, unblinking, looked through the telescope in his hand, looking not far away
The brightly lit Hanzhuang stronghold...
Time passed by minute by second. In the quiet night, he listened to the beep beep sound of the watch on his arm. Liu Hua's tense heart became even more nervous.
After all, the operation of the Second Special Operations Regiment tonight is the first independent operation since the formation of the unit. At the same time, it is also the first time they conduct special operations against the enemy. And during the entire operation, can it be guaranteed that no shot is fired, and the operation is carried out quietly?
Taking down the entire stronghold silently is the key to the success of the entire food grabbing operation. Thinking of this, Commander Liu Hua couldn't help but sweat for the nearly a thousand officers and men of the Second Special Operations Regiment...
"Commander, if there is a situation, the Second Special Operations Regiment has begun to take action..." While Liu Hua was waiting anxiously, a kind reminder from Xu Zhongtian, commander of the 14th Division, came to his ears...
Sure enough, just as Liu Hua's eyes quickly swept towards the brightly lit Hanzhuang stronghold two kilometers away, which was illuminated by searchlights, black shadows quickly jumped in using the shadows of various buildings outside the stronghold.
into the trench... Then, one by one, agile figures passed through the trench, got into the Japanese and puppet army stronghold, and started their own actions...
Watching each of the special forces escape the eyes of the enemy patrols and sneak into the Japanese stronghold silently. Liu Hua's tense nerves finally relaxed. Because Liu Hua knew that as long as the nearly a thousand commanders and fighters of the Second Special Operations Regiment,
Able to safely enter the stronghold, the remaining few hundred Manchurian Army soldiers in the stronghold, together with dozens of little Japs, are no match for the nearly a thousand special operations team members...
As Liu Hua expected, less than fifteen minutes after the team members entered the stronghold, a searchlight mounted on the top of the central turret began to shine brightly and darkly towards the grove where everyone was hiding.
signal of…
"Commander, this is a signal from the Second Special Operations Regiment. The stronghold has been captured by the Second Special Operations Regiment. Are the troops going to set off immediately and go to Xinzhuang Village to ambush..." Similarly, Liu Hua immediately asked when he saw the signal.
In my ears, the voice of Xu Zhongtian, commander of the 14th Division next to me, sounded again...
"Of course, time is not waiting for me. There are still dozens of kilometers to go from Hanzhuang to Xinzhuang Village. And the little devil's army will set off early tomorrow morning. Now I order to bring all the mules and horses with them.
Car, the troops will set off immediately, aiming for Xinzhuang Village. After sensing the destination, the troops are taking a rest..." Liu Hua nodded and ordered decisively.
Two Japanese infantry regiments quickly assembled to prepare for reinforcements in Baishan County. Lieutenant General Yoshimoto, the commander of the Japanese division, listened to the continuous explosions of artillery shells in the county. He was impatient for the delay in the arrival of reinforcements and became furious.
when…
The two main divisions led by Commander Liu Hua, plus a large number of mules, horses and carts. A group of more than 10,000 people, under the cover of night, marched toward the location of Xinzhuang Village... At this moment,
The 30,000-day puppet army is still kept in the dark. I don’t know that at this moment, a breakthrough has been quietly opened in my defense line. At the same time, my 30,000-strong army and a quarter of food and grass have become
The fat in the mouth of the Eighth Route Army...
More than ten hours later, an army of more than 10,000 people, after evading two aerial reconnaissances by the Japanese army, finally brought a large number of transportation vehicles and collided with the special operations division commander Liu Xiaogang who came to respond...
"Report to the commander, Special Operations Division Commander Liu Xiaogang, who has been ordered to report..."
"Xiao Gang, you did a good job. In one month, we produced 3.5 million kilograms of grain, which far exceeded our expectations. I will definitely give you a credit when the time comes. How is the preparation of the army now?
?" Looking at Liu Xiaogang, who looked energetic, exhausted and smiling in front of him, Liu Hua nodded with satisfaction and asked.
"Commander, all pre-war preparations have been completed. We are just waiting for the little devil's special grain train to get into our pockets..." Looking at the transportation army behind the commander, Liu Xiaogang replied confidently.
…
"Well, you first have people arrange the two main divisions behind me. We must pay attention to concealment to prevent aerial reconnaissance by the little devils. We will go to your headquarters first. Then we will learn about the specific situation and see if there are any
There is no loophole. After all, it is three million kilograms of grain. It is a huge sum for us and the little devils..." Liu Huadao...
In Xinzhuang Village, in a temporary headquarters that was simply converted from a private house, a simple map was placed in front of the commander Liu Hua and the other two division commanders. As for the special operations division commander Liu Xiaogang, he acted as a commentator
, pointing to the map on the table, introducing his deployment to the three people in front of him one by one...
"Commander, my specific deployment is as follows. In Xinzhuang Village, I have left the direct special operations company and the one and two companies of the first special operations regiment. The total strength of three companies is enough to carry out the mission in the shortest possible time.
To deal with all the Japanese soldiers on the food train, ensure that all the food, no matter what, is delivered to the hands of the main force... As for the deployment of reinforcements from all directions to block the Japanese army, this is..."
"In the direction of Shenyang, I deployed a battalion of special operations team members. In the direction of Baishan County, because the county town is being attacked by Commander Zhou, I deployed two special operations companies... As for the other two lines of defense, I deployed a
The strength of the company. These two battalions that blocked the enemy's reinforcements all carried a large number of mines and explosives. They could block the enemy for four hours without any problems..."
"The troops are deployed very thoughtfully, with almost no loopholes. I have great faith in the combat effectiveness of the First Special Operations Regiment... In this way, I left the Second Special Operations Regiment in Hanzhuang, which is the gate for us to enter and exit the base area. We must not
If there is any mistake, I can only rest assured if it is handed over to the Second Special Operations Regiment. However, I have brought you the Third Special Operations Regiment, and now I will leave it to you for unified command. If there are any loopholes, use the Third Special Operations Regiment.
The regiment will fill it in for him. In short, we must ensure that the food robbery operation is foolproof..." Liu Hua nodded approvingly and said...
"Thank you, Commander. Commander, the Special Operations Division promises to complete the mission, so you can rest assured..." Liu Xiaogang replied with a face of surprise, turning to the commander of the Third Special Operations Regiment behind him to issue specific combat missions...
In the Shenyang City Railway Station, after several days of busy work by nearly 10,000 Manchurian Army soldiers, three million kilograms of grain have been loaded onto the trucks, waiting for the order to set off. In the station master's room, the supreme commander of the Shenyang Garrison Command is sitting at the station. From the captain's position, he was giving instructions to a major officer who was bending down in front of him...
"Watanabe-kun, these three million kilograms of grain are related to the life and death of our 30,000 troops in Baishan County. Its importance is self-evident. Therefore, no matter what, you must guarantee me with the honor of a soldier. You must take your subordinates to safely deliver this batch of food to Lieutenant General Yoshimoto, and then return to Shenyang City..." the commander said with a serious face...
"Hai, Commander, please rest assured. I am humble enough to guarantee that the mission will be completed. Three million kilograms of grain, not a few grains, will be delivered to Baishan County, in the hands of the commander of the Yoshimoto Division..." Major Watanabe looked solemn. replied…
"Yoshi, that's very good. However, Watanabe-kun, don't worry too much. The troops you are responsible for commanding include two squadrons of elite imperial troops. In terms of combat effectiveness, they have already defeated a main regiment of the China Army. .And along the railway line from Shenyang to Baishan County, it only takes one morning to reach it. More importantly, the entire railway line is within the control of our Imperial Japanese Army, and there is no large-scale attack at all. Hostile armed forces…”
"At the same time, according to the latest news sent by Commander Gibbon, the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Mengshan area is currently besieging Baishan County. In the near future, this Eighth Route Army unit will soon fall into the trap given to them by Lieutenant General Gibbon. , was carefully prepared in a huge encirclement, and was finally wiped out... Therefore, along the way, what you need to be prepared for is the small group of anti-Japanese armed forces active in this area, to prevent them from blowing up the entire military column and destroying the food and grass..."
"Thank you, Commander, for the reminder. I will live up to my humble duty and deliver the food safely to Lieutenant General Yoshimoto. Please rest assured, Commander..." After listening to the Commander's instructions, Major Watanabe felt a long sigh in his heart. While breathing a sigh of relief, he answered confidently...
"Okay, let's go. I will be waiting for Mr. Watanabe's success report at the Shenyang Security Headquarters. At the same time, I will also put on the best celebration banquet and wait for Mr. Watanabe's arrival..." The commander waved his hand. , said with a smile on his face...
"Beep...beep..." A few minutes later, a long whistle began to sound in the train station. The heavy steam engine locomotive, emitting thick black smoke, dragged dozens of wagons filled with food behind it. With a huge roar, he started his journey...
On the grain transport train consisting of dozens of wagons, a squadron of Japanese soldiers were stationed in the first wagon and the last wagon respectively... Of course, the Japanese soldiers in these two squadrons were Japanese troops responsible for escorting the food. All the troops in the entire food train...
The Japanese army's special grain transport train, loaded with three million kilograms of grain, had just left Shenyang Railway Station. The special operations team members hidden around the railway station immediately reported the news to Xinzhuang Village through the radio. Mr. Liu Xiaogang inside...
"Commander, good news. The scouts in Shenyang City have just sent a telegram. The Japs' special grain train has departed from Shenyang Railway Station. In two hours at most, the Japs' train will be able to enter our ambush circle. ..." As soon as he received the telegram, Liu Xiaogang rushed into the temporary headquarters. Before he could take a breath, he panted to the commander Liu Hua in front of him...
"Commander Liu, this is your business. I am only responsible for transporting three million kilograms of grain. You go to command the battle immediately. The rest will be left to me, the commander..." Liu Hua nodded, his face He said with a look of surprise...
"Yes, Commander, the special operations division promises to complete the mission..." As he spoke, Liu Xiaogang rushed out of the headquarters with excitement on his face...
Looking at the dusty Master Liu Xiaogang who was leaving quickly, Liu Hua smiled and shook his head. However, in the blink of an eye, the smile on his face was shrouded in seriousness, and he loudly ordered to his guards...
"Guard, inform the commanders of the two main divisions, 14th and 15th, that the troops will end their rest and recuperation immediately and be prepared to rush to transport food... Once the little devil's special food train is controlled by the special operations division, the troops must rush to transport food in the shortest possible time. , move all the food on the train to prevent the little Japanese from jumping over the wall, and dispatch the air force to bomb the train..."
With Commander Liu Hua's order, more than 10,000 commanders and combatants lurking around Xinzhuang Village immediately moved into action. Of course, the first to take action were the hundreds of special operations team members lurking next to the railway...
In order to prevent three million kilograms of grain from being destroyed, the troops did not use explosives for blasting. Instead, they spent almost an hour completely pulling out a section of railway track that was nearly 100 meters long... Then, on the railway track, On both sides, countless hidden soldier pits were dug. More than 300 elite special operations team members were all hidden in the hidden soldier holes, waiting for the arrival of the Japs train...
The purpose of Liu Xiaogang's doing this is to stop the Japanese army's grain transport train and all the escorting officers and soldiers get off the train to guard the surroundings. Three hundred special operations team members hiding underground will occupy the entire grain transport train at the first time. Special train, and then destroy all the Japanese soldiers who have got off the train...
"Dudu...dudu..." While everyone was waiting for social interaction, a long train whistle came to everyone's ears. Immediately afterwards, a wave of petrels soaring into the sky appeared in everyone's eyes. ...The little devil's special grain train slowly appeared in front of everyone with a rumbling roar...
