Chapter 591: Thunder Strike
Of course, the change in the marching route of the Japanese Third Infantry Regiment did not escape the surveillance of their every move and the eyes of the scouts... The news that a Japanese infantry regiment suddenly changed its marching direction and returned to support the Hanzhuang stronghold. On the first
Time was passed to the ears of Commander Zhou Baozhong...
"What, you said that a little fighter from the regiment changed the marching direction and suddenly attacked in the direction of Hanzhuang?" After listening to the report of Li Yuanqing, commander of the 13th Division, Commander Zhou Baozhong opened his mouth and immediately turned into a 0
Type. asked with an incredulous look on his face...
"Yes, Commander. According to the latest intelligence sent by the investigators, the Japs are marching very fast. It will take up to two hours to feel the outskirts of the Hanzhuang stronghold..." Li Yuanqing replied affirmatively...
"Oh no, the commander's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain must have been seen through by the commander of the little devil... It seems that this time, we have encountered a very difficult and powerful opponent... Now this Japanese infantry
Where has the regiment gone? If we immediately send troops on a forced march to pursue, can we feel the front of these little devils and drag them around Baishan County..." Zhou Baozhong frowned and faced Li Yuanqing in front of him.
asked…
However, what disappointed Zhou Baozhong was that just as he finished speaking, Commander Li Yuanqing in front of him shook his head helplessly. Then, he pointed at the map in front of him and said...
"It's impossible. Even if we want to pursue it now, we have no chance... Another infantry regiment of the Japanese army responsible for the detour, after several hours of march, has now arrived directly in front of us, blocking the path of our pursuit.
All roads... In other words, if we want to pursue a pursuit, we must defeat the more than 3,000 Japs and the more than 3,000 Manchurian soldiers standing in front of us. Otherwise, there will be no chance at all..."
"Damn, the little devil is really cruel. He moved so quickly that he even blocked our retreat..." Commander Zhou Baozhong clenched his fist and smashed it in front of him. The bullet box
A table was piled up, and he cursed with hatred...
"Commander, the troops of a small Japanese regiment are obviously to retake the Hanzhuang stronghold that we just occupied. Then, the main force of our army was blocked on the periphery of the base... Now we can't reinforce the Hanzhuang stronghold.
, what should we do next? Are we just going to watch the Hanzhuang stronghold being recaptured by the Japs, blocking the main force's passage back to the base area..." Commander Li Yuanqing, who had no choice but to ask anxiously, asked
road…
"It's not that easy. The Hanzhuang stronghold is stationed with the Second Special Operations Regiment, more than a thousand special operations members... We all know the combat effectiveness of the special operations division. A little devil from a regiment, in the Second Special Operations Regiment
There is absolutely nothing you can gain from your hands...Immediately send a telegram to Commander Zhang of the Second Special Operations Regiment to inform them of the enemy's situation and ask them to prepare in advance. At the same time, report all the situations to the commander. Please make preparations in advance and give
Let's issue the latest order..." Zhou Baozhong shook his head and ordered with confidence...
"Yes, Commander..."
In the Hanzhuang stronghold, Zhang Guodong, the commander of the Second Special Operations Regiment, was sitting in the office of the former supreme commander. A pair of eyes full of excitement, staring unblinking at the military map in front of him, thinking about the next few hours of the army
Defense issues…
Because he believed that as the Japanese army's grain transport column was robbed, the kidnappers and commanders in Baishan County would know this information sooner or later. And the Japanese army, in order to obtain three million kilograms of grain, would send out heavy troops sooner or later to recapture what he had captured.
Occupy the Hanzhuang stronghold, thereby blocking the way for the main force to use the base area, and recapture the intercepted grain and grass...
For the safety of the main force and for the three million kilograms of grain to be successfully transported into the base area, Zhang Guodong knew that the reason why the commander kept his Second Special Operations Regiment here was because of the combat effectiveness of the Second Special Operations Regiment. I believe in myself.
If you have the ability, you can rely on the strength of a regiment to hold this breakthrough...
Thinking of this, the face of the regiment leader Zhang Guodong was immediately replaced by a solemn expression. He began to draw circles on the map on the table and formulate a specific defensive plan... However, at this moment,
A rush of footsteps quickly reached his ears from far away. Immediately after, the communications staff officer of the regiment stood in front of him with an anxious look on his face...
"Regiment leader, Commander Zhou of Baishan County sent an urgent message. A Japanese regiment, carrying a mountain artillery squadron, is quickly approaching Hanzhuang to increase its troops. Commander Zhou reminded us to prepare for battle in advance to meet the Japanese attack and defend Hanzhuang.
Zhuang stronghold…”
"Alas..." After listening to the report of the communications staff, the regiment leader Zhang Guodong couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and then said: "You can really come to whatever you want. The little devil really thinks highly of us. He is an elite as soon as he comes.
The infantry regiment... However, when the soldiers come, they will block it, and when the water comes, the soil will come... Our Second Special Operations Regiment is not just a piece of paper. Order all battalion commanders and company commanders directly under the regiment headquarters to come here for a meeting, and hurry up..."
As the ownership membership expired, Zhang Guodong did not hesitate and said straight to the point: "Comrades, last night, our Second Special Operations Regiment fought its first battle since the formation of the unit, and we fought very beautifully.
Even the commander praised us and promised to give credit to all the combatants in the regiment... However, we occupied the little devil's Hanzhuang stronghold for less than a day and a night, and the little devil couldn't help it anymore.
A regiment of troops was dispatched to recapture the entire stronghold from our hands. Then, they blocked the retreat of our main force... Everyone talked about what our Second Special Operations Regiment should do next and how to intercept it.
The little devil's attack, defend the stronghold?"
As soon as Zhang Guodong finished speaking, the commander of the first battalion said impatiently: "Commander, there is nothing to say. If a kid comes, we will kill one. If a pair of kid comes, we will kill a pair... Isn't it just a joint effort?
Is he the little devil in the team? Our Second Special Operations Regiment will take care of him."
"Commander, just give the order. Even if we kill all the people in the regiment, we can't let the little Japs block the main force's retreat..." the second battalion commander said after him...
After a few minutes of speech, seeing that everyone had unanimous opinions, the regiment leader Zhang Guodong waved his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, and then said: "Comrades, the strength of a small Japanese regiment is not a big problem for us...
However, the only thing that worries us is the artillery and air force of the Japanese Air Force. After all, in this open plain, the Hanzhuang stronghold is the best target for the first-level artillery of the Japanese Air Force... Therefore, our urgent delay is to
Before the main force of the Japanese army arrives, first deal with their air force and artillery units..."
The political commissar continued Zhang Guodong's words and said: "Old Zhang, I will solve the problem of the Japanese Air Force... Our regiment is equipped with 9 anti-aircraft machine guns. Coupled with the crude method of creating thick smoke on the battlefield, the Japanese Air Force will definitely
Don’t dare to be arrogant in front of us…”
After hearing the political commissar's assurance, the regiment leader Zhang Guodong nodded and continued: "Okay, let's leave the threat of the air force to Zhengwei. At that time, you will be in command of the air defense company. The rest is the artillery of the Japs. According to the intelligence
It shows that the Japanese army is equipped with a mountain artillery squadron and three infantry artillery squads, a total of 12 artillery pieces. As long as these 12 artillery pieces are solved, we will no longer have any worries when facing the strength of an infantry regiment of the Japanese army. Little devil
If one comes, we will kill one; if a pair comes, we will kill both..."
Just as Zhang Guodong finished speaking, the commander of the sniper company directly under the regiment hesitated briefly and said: "Commander, I have an idea, but I don't know if it is feasible..."
Zhang Guodong's eyes lit up and he quickly replied: "What method can you use? Let's discuss it together..."
After receiving the regimental leader's affirmation, the sniper company commander stood up and said confidently: "Captain, the Japanese reinforcements are at least ten kilometers away from the Hanzhuang stronghold, which is far beyond the range of Japanese artillery.
If we destroy all the roads on the only way the Japanese army must pass, so that their artillery cannot pass... I believe that the Japanese army, after receiving the emergency military order, will temporarily give up their artillery. As long as the Japanese artillery unit is left alone, I am confident that with the help of
The strength of the sniper company killed all the artillery personnel of the little devil, causing the little devil to lose all the gunners..."
After a brief thought, a smile appeared on the face of the regiment leader Zhang Guodong. He said to Captain Wang of the sniper company in front of him: "Captain Wang, although this method is a bit risky, for the safety of the main force, it is worth a try... Now
I order the engineer company and sniper company to be under your personal command. Before the main Japanese army reaches the Hanzhuang stronghold, do everything possible to eliminate all Japanese artillery personnel..."
Company Commander Wang and the Engineer Company Commander said at the same time: "Yes, Commander, the sniper company and the Engineer Company guarantee to complete the mission..."
"Very good, each battalion and company will immediately follow the battle plan formulated before the war and seize the time to build defensive fortifications. Although the strength of our special operations division is not to fight in positional warfare. However, today our second special operations regiment must fight in positional warfare.
"Come on, let the little devils see how powerful we are, and give them a head-on blow... Let's adjourn the meeting..." Zhang Guodong, the group leader, ordered decisively...
At this moment, more than an hour had passed since the 1st Special Operations Regiment intercepted the military column. During this period of more than an hour, more than 10,000 commanders and fighters, under the command of commanders at all levels, finally
Not a single grain of three million kilograms of grain was left hidden in the surrounding woods...
"Buzz buzz..." A faint roar of the plane slowly reached everyone's ears from far to near. After the last bag of grain was moved out of the little devil's grain train by the soldiers. From the direction of Shenyang
The incoming Japanese reconnaissance planes and bombers finally came slowly and appeared over Xinzhuang Village...
"The little devil's plane is still here. However, now in Xinzhuang Village, there is only an empty train without even a grain of food... Notify all troops to take cover immediately. No matter what happens, the target cannot be exposed. Now
, let’s just come here to watch the show... Let’s see how the little devil’s plane can deal with this train that doesn’t have a grain of food... “Seeing the Japanese bombers getting bigger and bigger in the sky, a group of Japanese bombers made up of several small black dots.” Liu
Hua sneered and said...
"Buzz buzz... boom boom boom..." There was no surprise. After circling for a few minutes, I looked at an empty military column on the railway, and looked around, and there was no movement on the ground...
He came with full confidence, ready to give a thunderous blow to the Eighth Route Army that hijacked his troops, and to have a good taste of the powerful little Japanese pilots of the Kwantung Army aviation unit of the Empire of Japan. In order to vent his dissatisfaction, he did not hesitate to turn the belly of the plane
All the bombs were thrown at the location of the culprit, the food train...
Amidst the violent explosions and huge fireballs rising into the sky... huge carriages, like toys, were thrown high into the sky by the air waves generated by the bomb explosion. And
At the same time, the sturdy carriage was torn to pieces like paper in front of the powerful bomb...
After a few minutes of arrogance, looking at the ground, Xinzhuang Village, which had been blown into a sea of fire, and the railway track, had become a pair of scrap metal transport military trains. Six Little Japanese bombers arranged their aircraft.
Wing, reluctantly left Xinzhuang Village and flew back to his aircraft nest...
Looking at the departing Japanese planes and the masterpieces of the six Japanese bombers in front of him, Liu Xiaogang, who had long been accustomed to it, was not stunned by the scene left after the Japanese bombing in front of him like the former commander of the Anti-Resistance Alliance. Just when the little devil
As soon as the plane disappeared from his sight, Liu Xiaogang said to the commander Liu Hua beside him...
"Commander, the little devil's plane has already left. Should the troops bring food and return to the base area immediately... I'm worried that over time, the little devil commander will discover something. By then, the road we use to return to the base area will be blocked.
Block up the little devil..."
Liu Hua nodded and said: "Well, it's time to go back. You know, our new opponent in Baishan County, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto, is a difficult opponent. He ordered the troops to take all the captured grain and grass and return to the base.
...the special operations division is responsible for security and air defense missions along the way. Remember, no matter what, we must not be allowed to be discovered by the Japs' air force reconnaissance planes... Otherwise, these three million kilograms of grain will be bombed by the Japs' planes
, there will definitely be heavy losses..."
Liu Xiaogang followed closely and replied loudly: "Yes, Commander..."
However, just as Liu Xiaogang finished speaking, a burst of rapid footsteps reached the ears of several people. Immediately after, the communications staff officer of the headquarters stood panting in front of him. Then, facing in front of him,
Commander Liu Hua reported anxiously...
"Reporting to the commander, Commander Zhou of Baishan County has an urgent message... A regiment of Japanese troops, carrying artillery fire, is advancing towards the Hanzhuang stronghold... In two hours at most, they will be in contact with the Second Special Operations Regiment."
"Cao Cao is really here. Our opponent, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto, is really an excellent commander. In less than two hours, our strategic intentions were seen through by them. More importantly, our opponent
Lieutenant General Yoshimoto took action and aimed directly at our throat, Hanzhuang stronghold, which is really surprising..." After the brief shock, Liu Hua couldn't help but muttered to himself...
As soon as Liu Hua finished speaking, Liu Xiaogang said impatiently: "Commander, what should we do next... The Japanese army has a regiment of troops, and it also carries a large amount of artillery fire. However, the Hanzhuang stronghold only has the Second Special Operations Regiment of nearly a thousand people.
We are only a combatant, and we are still in the plains, with no favorable terrain to take advantage of. If we engage in head-on battles and positional warfare, the Second Special Operations Regiment is definitely no match for the little devils who possess artillery fire and air superiority."
Regarding Liu Xiaogang's words, Liu Hua can be said to be half in agreement and half in opposition. Because, in terms of overall strength and positional warfare, the 1,000-man Second Special Operations Regiment is definitely no match for a Japanese field regiment. However,
Through the battle in which the Second Special Operations Regiment quietly occupied the Hanzhuang stronghold, Liu Hua believed in the command ability of Li Guodong, the leader of the Second Special Operations Regiment. Therefore, he also believed that Zhang Guodong could lead the Second Special Operations Regiment and defend the Hanzhuang stronghold. This
A safe passage related to the life and death of the main force...
Thinking of this, Liu Hua said: "We must believe in Zhang Guodong and all the commanders and fighters of the Second Special Operations Regiment... The communications staff immediately sent a telegram to Commander Zhang Guodong, ordering all the commanders and fighters of the Second Special Operations Regiment to stick to Hanzhuang no matter what method is used.
The stronghold will have at least ten hours to wait for the arrival of the main force..."
"Yes, Commander..." The communications staff officer took the order and left...
Looking at the communications staff officer who was leaving quickly, Liu Hua turned to the three division commanders in front of him and said: "Comrades, everyone knows the situation. From now on, every minute we delay, the Second Special Operations Regiment will gain one point."
The danger. Our main force will also be in a little more danger. Therefore, from now on, each unit must speed up its marching speed while maintaining concealment. No matter how frequent harassment by enemy aircraft is, the troops
We must rush to the Hanzhuang stronghold within ten hours and pass through the little devil's defense line..."
Regarding the commander's order, several division commanders had no objections and nodded at the same time and replied: "Yes, commander..."
"Very good, now you all return to your respective command positions immediately. In ten minutes, the troops will start setting off. The target is the Hanzhuang stronghold... Let's adjourn now..." Liu Hua then ordered...
