Zhou Weiguo led the Second Brigade and traveled all night. By about 4 o'clock in the morning, they had arrived near Haiyang.
Haiyang is affiliated to Yantai City, Shandong Province. It is located in the southeast of Shandong Peninsula and the south of Yantai City. It borders Rushan and Mouping to the east, Laiyang to the west, Qixia to the north, the Yellow Sea to the south, and faces Jimo across the T-shaped Bay to the southwest.
It is a small county town. Although it is close to the sea, it is not an important seaside city. Therefore, the Japanese defense is relatively lax and weak.
"Brother, the guard force in Haiyang is not strong." Zhu Ziming said. As the boss of Qingfeng Village, he knows the terrain around Qingfeng Village very well. Qingfeng Village is located between Laiyang and Haiyang, and it is easy to defend.
It is difficult to attack, which is why Qingfeng Village has developed for so long.
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said, "The Japs haven't reacted yet. Since they are all going to be exposed, let's just expose them."
There are no decent defensive positions near Haiyang, and the only Japanese troops stationed in Haiyang County are a squadron. In Zhou Weiguo's view, the Japanese army's defensive strength is the same as no defense at all.
When the enemy is awake, take Haiyang and prevent the Japanese troops from surrounding Yantai and Qingdao from having the opportunity to reinforce.
"Third brother, take your brothers to the Japanese guard post." Zhou Weiguo said to Liu Sand. The Wuhan battle was over, and Liu San also returned with his detachment.
"Okay." Liu San agreed and took the members of the special operations team to Haiyang. For the special operations team, this kind of time and terrain were simply prepared for them.
…
About an hour later, when Liu San led the special team back to Zhou Weiguo, he said, "Everything has been solved. The Japanese have not sent any news."
"Okay." Zhou Weiguo nodded immediately, looked at Zhu Ziming, and said, "Brother, Haiyang is a very important place for us at the moment. I put the Second Brigade here, and you have to guard it."
"Don't worry, brother, when we enter the city, I will let everyone start building fortifications. Moreover, now that we are all wearing Japanese clothes, we can still confuse some Japanese." Zhu Ziming smiled and said, "I will definitely not lose it.
From Haiyang.”
"Brother, the Second Brigade now has nearly 15,000 people. In terms of organization, it is already close to a division of the national army." Zhou Weiguo said, "What you mainly defend is the Japanese in the Yantai and Qingdao areas, but there are also Japanese troops coming from the sea.
I will let the artillery regiment place a battalion here and install a few cannons to defend against the Japanese warships."
"Hehe, okay." Zhu Ziming smiled and said, "This is my first time commanding so many people to fight."
"According to what we agreed before, the first group, that is, the third leader, you must guard Niangniang Mountain, the front line of the village, and you must stick to your position!" Zhou Weiguo said seriously to Li Wu.
"Second in charge, don't worry. Unless I, Li Wu, go back to see my ancestor, the position must be there." Li Wu spoke in dialect, patted his chest, and said, "I have more than 4,000 people under my command now."
"Well, of course I believe it. After all, the lessons you usually attend are not for nothing." Zhou Weiguo smiled and said, he had sent people to do training for several heads of Qingfeng Village.
"Then Shoutian, your second regiment must guard Panshidian and Zhuwu Town's front line."
"Second in charge, don't worry, I will keep it even if I risk my life," Shouda said.
Zhou Weiguo was silent for a while and said, "I don't want your lives. Keep your lives well. After the Japanese are beaten away, you still have to marry a wife."
"Hahaha." Everyone laughed.
"Brother, you take your guard battalion and the Fugui Third Regiment to guard Haiyang County. I will ask the artillery battalion to assist in the defense, mainly to defend against the Japanese warships. Remember, the fortifications must be repaired properly.
, you can’t be lazy. These are life-related matters." Zhou Weiguo said, looking at Zhu Ziming.
Feeling Zhou Weiguo's concern, Zhu Ziming laughed and said, "Don't worry, brother, I'm still waiting for the end of the Anti-Japanese War to farm with you."
"Okay!" Zhou Weiguo said immediately, "Then I'll go into the city and take good artillery defense." Then, Zhou Weiguo entered Haiyang first. He wanted to explore the terrain and bring out a few train guns. The train gun was a kind of installation.
Large artillery types on railway tracks. By installing cannons on armored trains, these large artillery pieces that are originally inconvenient to transport can be moved quickly on the railway tracks. However, due to the high cost, high loss, and short lifespan of train guns, train guns are
It soon withdrew from the stage of history. But here in Haiyang, the train gun can be used as a fort.
After surveying the terrain, Zhou Weiguo exchanged for the Gustav, the largest caliber movable cannon in history. In World War II, it destroyed the most important arsenal of the Soviet army and was eventually blown up by the Germans. As early as the Second World War,
Before the outbreak of World War II, Hitler, the leader of Nazi Germany, ordered Krupp, Germany's number one arms dealer, to develop a super cannon. After years of research, in September 1941, Krupp finally came up with a super-heavy railway gun.
, this kind of cannon has a caliber as high as 800 mm, a total length of 47.3 meters, a height of 11.6 meters, a barrel length of 32.48 meters, and can seat more than 30 people on it. It weighs 1,350 tons and can project artillery shells weighing 7 tons to a distance of 37 kilometers.
target, so it can be said to be the largest caliber movable cannon in human history.
Therefore, it is enough to use it to deal with the Japanese warships. The most important thing is that the price of this thing is not expensive. It only costs 200 points a piece, but the shells actually cost 200 points a piece. In desperation, Zhou Weiguo
I exchanged 10 Gustavs and 200 shells, spending more than 20,000 points.
When the soldiers in the artillery battalion saw the train cannon, they were dumbfounded. They were instantly astonished to Zhou Weiguo and looked at the train cannon with feverish eyes.
…
When Zhou Weiguo returned to Laiyang, it was already noon.
Today, the first regiment of the third brigade is stationed in the northeast of Laiyang, Guocheng Town, and Xujiadian area, mainly to deal with the Japanese in the direction of Yantai; the second regiment of the third brigade is stationed in the northwest of Laiyang, Guandao Town, and Qishan Town
The third brigade and the third regiment are stationed in Nanshu Town and Wubei Town, west of Laixi.
The first regiment and the second regiment of the first brigade were stationed in Jiangshan Town, Xiagezhuang Town, and Xefang Town just south of Laixi. They mainly dealt with the Japs from the direction of Qingdao. The third regiment of the first brigade and Zhou Weiguo's guard regiment served as
The existence of mobile forces.
At the same time, after Zhou Weiguo completed the deployment of defenses in various places, the long-lost system issued a mission, "Special Mission: Defend Laiyang (until August 15, 1945). As a host, he commanded tens of thousands of people in combat for the first time. This time
After the mission is completed, the reward will be huge. Boy, your plan has been exposed and the Japanese army will not allow you to exist. Please work hard!"
