Chapter 1261, sneak attack on the Japanese airport?

War is cruel.

War is tiring.

The great man said that one is not afraid of suffering, and the other is not afraid of death.

Why is suffering ranked first? Because it is long-term and cannot be relieved.

It's not pain. It's hardship.

The glory lies in the plainness, and the difficulty lies in the long time.

It has only been half a month since the Marco Polo Bridge Incident until today.

However, Zhang Yong felt as if many years had passed. The time was extremely long. Every day was longer than a year.

There is no hot water for bathing.

No hot rice. No soup. No Coke.

Nothing.

I couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep well, and was very nervous.

Only hard dry food. Eat it as much as you like.

Of course, you can also use your troops to plunder and go to the common people to ask for food. If you don't give them, you will rob them.

However, this may bring disaster to them. The Japanese invaders will definitely kill them if they learn that they are supporting the national army.

At the same time, the people who were robbed must have been very angry and reported it to the Japanese invaders.

Don't think too highly of the consciousness of ordinary people.

The people are illiterate and the poor people have no sense of nationality at all, let alone any sense of national pride.

To put it harshly, they have no awareness at all.

Even if the other party is the Japanese invaders, as long as they are given some benefits, they can betray the national army.

It’s just that our history books don’t dare to mention it.

Fighting behind enemy lines is so difficult.

Therefore, it is impossible to carry out struggles behind enemy lines in areas without a mass base.

Doesn’t the national army not want to launch a struggle behind enemy lines? It’s not that it doesn’t want to. It’s that it can’t do it because it doesn’t have the secret and voluntary support of the common people.

Tang Enbo's later anger and resentment was also due to his plundering.

But what can he do?

If we don't grab it, the army will collapse.

Therefore, from the root, it is destined to be unsustainable.

It's okay to eat. I can barely find food. I can't take a shower or change clothes. That's the most terrible thing.

Everyone's body is dirty and has various skin diseases.

In the past, I felt that the sword was already very realistic, and the clothes of the people in it were all dirty.

Now I realize that the bright sword is also an exaggeration. Over there is the Eighth Route Army. It is the Jinsui Army, not the larger number of other national armies.

It's fine at ordinary times. Once in combat mode, everyone is almost like a beggar.

Including Zhang Yong himself, he also had a beard, and his whole body exuded a stinky smell. This was caused by the alternate penetration of rain and sweat.

If his women saw him at this time, they would all shy away.

Maybe he fainted from the smoke before he even got close.

Just a miserable word...

Is there a solution?

Yes. Find a campsite.

Conditional.

Everyone takes a shower.

Change clothes.

do the laundry.

Catch lice.

Treat skin diseases.

Especially bad feet.

Suddenly I felt that the bare feet of the national army were actually quite good.

At least bare feet are not so easy to be soaked by rain, and not so easy to rot. Wearing cloth shoes is a tragedy.

Cloth shoes are not resistant to dirt, are not waterproof, and cannot withstand sharp objects. They are almost useless. However, even so, even cloth shoes cannot be provided for everyone.

There was no time to knit straw sandals. Zhang Yong didn’t know how to knit straw sandals, so he just went barefoot.

What to do if your foot is pricked?

He doesn't know either, but he would rather go barefoot.

Otherwise, he really can't bear the rotten feet.

It's so itchy.

The more I scratched, the more itchy it became.

This is still him.

Inspector of the dignified military and political committee.

The supreme commander of the troops.

Have the best conditions.

The same is true for him. One can imagine how badly treated ordinary soldiers would be.

Thinking about it, after the Sichuan army entered the battle, in the eyes of the well-equipped Japanese invaders, they might just be a bunch of beggars!

Fortunately, many Japanese invaders have been eliminated recently and many military boots have been seized.

Jiao Rulin, Gao Youxun and others have been active on the battlefield all year round and have long been accustomed to it.

"Commissioner, you have to get used to it."

"You should be able to get used to it in a year and a half."

The two of them comforted Zhang Yong seriously.

Zhang Yong looks a bit strange now.

Walking with a slight limp.

It seems like my butt hurts.

If it were placed in future generations, it might be misunderstood by others.

But in this era, anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that it is the sequelae of traveling long distances on horseback.

I rode a horse all the way from Shimen to the vicinity of Juyongguan, about 300 kilometers. My buttocks were almost bleeding. Even wearing a thick mattress was of no use.

That's what war is like.

The cavalry looks cool on the surface, but who knows the pain behind them.

However, no matter how painful it is, you have to endure it.

Because I need speed. I don’t want to be an infantryman. If there is danger, I can’t run away.

At this moment, there are Japanese invaders everywhere around Peiping.

Several Japanese divisions have gathered here and are planning to divide their forces to attack.

Because there was no clear judgment on the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, the Japanese invaders did not dare to act hastily.

Mainly because he, Zhang Yong, made two consecutive sneak attacks and overestimated the combat effectiveness of other national troops. Therefore, he did not dare to attack rashly.

An infantry regiment marching alone may be wiped out.

A division is necessary.

The division still needs to be fully prepared.

We must focus on taking good care of our artillery. We also need aviation cover.

In this case, the action will definitely not be so fast.

Of course, a very important point is to determine where Zhang Yong is.

Where Zhang Yong appears, there may be danger.

"There's someone ahead."

"Stop moving forward."

Zhang Yong suddenly raised his hand and jumped off his horse.

The map shows that in the northwest, there are a large number of white dots approaching. They all have weapons signs and there are many people.

It should be one of our own. But I don’t know which part it is from.

"Chen Hansheng."

"arrive."

"About five kilometers to the northwest, there are troops approaching. They may be our own. Go and contact the other party to see who is coming."

"good."

Chen Hansheng agreed and led people to the front.

He is an officer of the 29th Army. He has more dealings with troops in the northwest.

In fact, the 29th Army was also part of the Northwest Army. The Shanxi-Sui Army was also part of the Northwest Army. The two are very closely related.

Monitor the map silently.

Chen Hansheng quickly joined the white dots, and then a dozen blue dots followed Chen Hansheng.

Zhang Yong tidied his clothes.

A bit miserable.

But it doesn't matter.

That's what the battlefield is like.

Just get used to it.

Soon, Chen Hansheng arrived with a colonel officer.

The opponent has obviously not entered the battle yet. He is quite clean. He may have just arrived from behind.

The colonel officer came to Zhang Yong, stood at attention and saluted.

"Commissioner."

"Hello."

Zhang Yong nodded.

Reach out and shake the other person's hand.

This is more intimate.

"You are..."

"Reporting to the Commissioner, my humble position is Yu Defei, the leader of the 13th Army Supplementary Regiment."

"Thirteenth Army? Supplementary Regiment?"

Zhang Yong was thoughtful.

It was actually the Thirteenth Army, Tang Enbo's starting army.

Before, when he was at Shimen, Zhang Yong did not know the composition of Tang Enbo's troops in detail.

I didn't expect that the Thirteenth Army was actually here.

Came in advance? Or...

"Where did you come from?"

"Huai'an. Tianzhen."

"oh."

Zhang Yong quietly checked the map.

It turns out to be west of Zhangjiakou. I’m confused. Where were they stationed before?

I continued to ask and learned that the Thirteenth Army had been participating in the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army in northern Shaanxi. After the Northwest Incident, it also participated in the encirclement of the Northeast Army.

Finally, the troops went all the way north and stationed in the west of Zhangjiakou.

Why are you stationed here?

It is estimated that the Jinsui Army is divided, or divided.

The Jin-Sui Army actually had two officers. One was Yan Laoxi and the other was Chief Fu.

Chief Fu was originally Yan Laoxi's subordinate, but later he went to Suiyuan and gradually established his own business. Lao Jiang also strongly supported it. As long as it could weaken Yan Laoxi's strength, Lao Jiang supported it.

The purpose of stationing the Thirteenth Army west of Zhangjiakou was to suppress Yan Laoxi and prevent him from putting pressure on Chief Fu.

Lao Chiang was not good at doing good things, but he was proficient at doing bad things.

The Northwest Army was defeated by him. The Northeast Army was also defeated. The Sichuan Army is now also divided into four parts. The Shanxi-Sui Army has also been divided.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Du Yuming also suppressed the Yunnan Army. Du Yuming bombarded Mount Wuhua. He used very drastic measures, which seriously damaged his reputation.

Du Yuming finally entered Gongde Forest. It must be said that it was closely related to the bombardment of Mount Wuhua.

In the end, the hard core of the Gui family is left, and I can't figure it out.

However, little Zhuge was so smart that he went to Taiwan with his biggest rival. Naturally, he died a violent death.

"You are here..."

"Defend the flanks. Prevent Japanese raids."

"Where is your main force?"

"In the area around the south entrance."

"oh."

Zhang Yong thought for a while.

It seems that I am still a little far away from the south exit.

That is to say, we haven’t entered the real battlefield yet.

"How is the battle at Nankou?"

"We are still in a stalemate. The Japanese invaders have taken turns to attack, but they have all been repulsed."

"What are the troop casualties?"

"Reporting Commissioner, I don't know. But our division's Chief of Staff Wu will be arriving soon. You can learn about the situation from him."

"What's the name of your chief of staff?"

"Wu Shaozhou."

"Wu Shaozhou?"

Zhang Yong felt that this name was a bit familiar.

I should have some impression of it somewhere. But unfortunately, I can't remember it for a while.

The chief of staff of the division seems to have some status. I guess he is in the second or third phase of Huangpu?

"Yes."

"How old is your Chief of Staff Wu from Huangpu?"

"Reporting to the Commissioner, Chief of Staff Wu graduated from the Guizhou Martial Arts Hall. Not from Huangpu."

"No wonder..."

Zhang Yong is thoughtful. It turns out he is not a student of Huangpu!

No wonder he can only be chief of staff.

Let's just say that all Huangpu students directly lead the troops and do not serve as staff officers.

This can be regarded as an unspoken rule among Huangpu students. Even if the official position is one level lower, they are all military officials.

It means company commander, battalion commander, regiment commander, brigade commander, division commander, corps commander. Or add a deputy word in front of it. But I will definitely not be the chief of staff, because the chief of staff has no real power.

Would you like to ask Li Yunlong to be the chief of staff?

I don’t understand why Zhang Dabiao was appointed as chief of staff. He’s not professional enough!

Zhang Dabiao is a good fighter. What kind of strategy can he use?

"Let's do this. You send someone to report to your chief of staff that I have brought some ammunition. Ask them to send someone to carry it. Or you can help carry it."

"Commissioner, where is the ammunition?"

"Come with me!"

Zhang Yong took Yu Defei to the canyon behind.

It's so easy to deliver goods in mountainous areas. Just find a valley.

The canyon is filled with all kinds of ammunition.

The number of firearms is not enough, but there is plenty of ammunition, including cannonballs.

Since there is still a confrontation at the south entrance, it means that the defense line has not been lost. Then continue to fight.

Let the Japanese pay more casualties and a heavier price.

"so much……"

Yu Defei was surprised.

That much ammunition, estimated to be hundreds of thousands of rounds?

In addition to bullets, the most important ones are artillery shells, mortars, and 75mm mountain guns.

The national army is also very short of ammunition.

Except for a very small number of main troops, the other troops are not enough to form a base.

Bullets are a bit better, they can be produced by themselves. Cannonballs can barely be produced, but the quantity is very small. It can only be used by the main force.

Fortunately, this Thirteenth Army is Tang Enbo's starting army. It can also be regarded as one of the main forces.

"Move them all!"

"yes."

Yu Defei felt that happiness came so suddenly.

I never expected that I would receive so much ammunition before entering the battlefield.

"Report!"

Chen Hansheng arrived in a hurry.

It was said that Wu Shaozhou was here, so Zhang Yong came to see and deal with him.

Wu Shaozhou looked a little tired. His military uniform was a little wrinkled and soaked with sweat.

August in the Gregorian calendar happens to be the hottest season of the year.

On a rainy day, I'm covered in mud; on a sunny day, I'm covered in sweat.

"Commissioner."

"Chief of Staff Wu."

"Please take a seat."

"Thanks!"

Zhang Yong asked Wu Shaozhou to sit down and understand the basic situation of the Nankou Battle.

As a result, the scale of the battle far exceeded Zhang Yong's expectation. The battlefield was very large, covering the surrounding areas of Huailai, Yanqing, and Mentougou.

The Japanese troops participating in the attack not only started from Peiping, but also moved from the north to the south.

The Japanese independent 11th and 12th mixed brigades moved south from Mongolia.

There were also a large number of Japanese cavalry.

There is only so much information currently available. The battlefield is in chaos and the information is not timely.

The national army's own participating units are mainly the Thirteenth Army.

The Jinsui Army also had troops participating.

"Where is the Thirty-fifth Army?"

"We haven't set off yet."

"Not coming?"

"I'm coming. But I haven't come yet."

"oh……"

Zhang Yong frowned.

This thirty-fifth army is Commander Fu’s trump card!

From now on, until more than ten years later, it will be Commander Fu's heart and soul. It is his starting army.

Later, they were wiped out in Xinbao, which interrupted all of Commander Fu's fantasies.

If the 35th Army was not completely wiped out and instead fled back to Peiping, it's hard to say what the outcome of the great battle would be.

"We were poorly prepared and rushed into battle..."

"well……"

Zhang Yong said nothing.

This is always an excuse.

What does it mean to be unprepared and rush into battle?

In fact, I had a lot of time to prepare, but I didn't do it. I was busy wiping out the red party.

"You go ahead!"

"yes."

Wu Shaozhou left with his team.

Zhang Yong silently studied the map.

Where should I take action? How should I take action?

Sneak attack?

This is inevitable.

He was leading cavalry, so he would definitely be able to attack by surprise.

A head-on confrontation would definitely be no match for the Japanese infantry. Currently, there are too many Japanese invaders around Juyongguan.

Facing a target with heavy troops, cavalry has no advantage.

Could it be...

Leaving the south exit?

To find the weak points of the Japanese invaders?

Since the Japanese invaders focused their attention on the south entrance, they must have neglected other places.

So, where to go?

The Japanese invaders' periphery? Edge? Rear area?

The buttocks of the Japanese invaders are in Peiping. Peiping has heavy troops.

His eyes continued to look eastward.

Tianjin Wei?

That was the Japanese invaders' rear area.

If the attack is successful, it will definitely inflict heavy damage on the Japanese invaders.

The problem is...

The distance is a bit far. There is a plain over there.

Once you are targeted by a Japanese aircraft, you won't be able to escape even if you want. Maybe it will be on your family tree.

Huh?

Japanese aircraft?

Airport?

Zhang Yong's eyes suddenly flashed and he thought of something.

This time, he caught it.

Feeling excited.

Airport!

Sneak attack on the Japanese airport!

Destroy the Japanese aircraft!

There is no need to rush inside the airport. Just set up a mortar outside and shoot.

Within three kilometers, Japanese aircraft can be bombed.

Later, the Eighth Route Army attacked Yangmingbao Airport at night and destroyed many Japanese aircraft!

Even the poorly equipped Eighth Route Army could do it, so there was no reason why I couldn’t do it!

I don't have a plane.

Then I will leave you without a plane.

Both sides are even.

The value of airplanes is very high. Destroying one counts as one. It is much more cost-effective than killing a hundred or dozens of Japanese invaders.

It would be more cost-effective if the Japanese pilots could be killed together...

So, there is a little question——

Where is the nearest Japanese airport?
