"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, I'm sorry for causing the Imperial Army to suffer such losses. I have no choice but to commit seppuku to express my gratitude to the Emperor."
"Tanaka-kun, as a soldier, it is your duty to obey orders. The headquarters has other arrangements for calling you back this time."
"Hi."
"Hao-chan, you are a good child of my Konoe family. I will definitely catch the murderer and put him in front of your soul as a memorial!"
…
Zhou Weiguo naturally knew that the Japanese army in the Laiyang area was distressed by directly wiping out a Japanese squadron in one battle. In the Laiyang area, the Japanese army only had one brigade, numbering about 5,000, and they were scattered in various places.
Guarding strongholds in various places, it can be said that in Laiyang County, the total number of Japs is only 1,200 in two brigades. Therefore, fighting on the front line and in the sky really hurt the Japs. But there were only 5,000 Japs, and they were intimidated.
Chinese people in such a large area.
Speaking of which, the Japanese 38-gun is not an advanced weapon. The 38-gun is a rifle from 1905. The Japanese army used it until World War II. The 38-gun has the advantages of good accuracy, long range and long gun body, which can be used in hand-to-hand combat.
, In fact, due to the slender projectile (the slenderest warhead in World War II) and the special armor, the nutation effect of the 6.5mm Tomisaka bullet is very obvious when it just leaves the muzzle, and it is easy to burst and deform after penetrating the human body.
Therefore, the Type 38 rifle is very lethal within a distance of 200 meters. Within 200-600 meters, the warhead enters a stable flight period. Because the rifling twist is short and the gyroscopic effect of the warhead is obvious, the trajectory is straight and the accuracy is high. It may invade
The penetration force is a little stronger than other bullets, but this strength is based on the fact that the ballistic trajectory is a homogeneous tissue. In other words, when the bullet penetrates the human body, it cannot touch any bones or pass through it.
If the internal organs are too complex, they will still produce a flipping effect. After 600 meters, due to the reduced kinetic energy and instability of the warhead, due to the large aspect ratio, the cavity effect will not be worse than other types of guns. In other words, in the anti-Japanese war
On the battlefield, at an appropriate distance (200-600 meters), allowing bullets to penetrate a very small unimpeded area of the human body, is it really possible to have the legendary 38-meter bullet with poor lethality, with one shot piercing both eyes.
Situation. The "38"-type rifle is equipped with a single-edged bayonet with a blade length of 500 mm. The real flaw of the 38-type cover is the insufficient penetration caused by insufficient kinetic energy, and its low lethality against soldiers with protection (helmets).
The light machine guns used by the Japanese army were mainly the Taisho 11th year (1926) type known as the "Waibazi", and later equipped with the 1996 (1936) type commonly known as the "Kaibaozi" in China. Advantages of the Waibazi machine gun
It shoots accurately, but the ammunition supply is not smooth. It can only shoot 5 short shots at a time. In addition, the universal 6.5mm bullets are not lethal enough, and the killing performance is not as good as the Czech light machine gun (general German 7.9mm) that is mainly equipped by the Chinese armies.
bomb).
But under such circumstances, China was still defeated by Japan. The big reason was that it had advantages supported by the industrial system.
In line with the systematic military establishment, Japan, a modern chemical industrial country, has provided its own army with a complete and matching weapons and equipment system.
However, there is another more important reason, which is the quality and training of Japanese soldiers: excellent sources of soldiers and strict training create a recognized strong army. Moreover, according to statistics, the literacy rate in Japan in the late shogunate was quite high. According to statistics, the Japanese at that time
, 45% of men are literate, and 15% of women are literate. After the Meiji Restoration, which promoted education, Japan promulgated the "School System Ordinance" in 1872. By 1907, 35 years later, Japan's primary school enrollment rate reached 97.83%, which was basically achieved.
The popularization of primary education. But in 1907, China was still trembling under the pressure of major empires, and the Qing government was still selling out the interests of the people for the continuation of the dynasty.
Therefore, education and industry are indeed very important factors in a country's prosperity.
"Now as long as we complete the branch plots and plot tasks, we will have these foundations," Zhou Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief, "but education cannot be delayed."
…
"Brother, are there many people who can read in our village?" Zhou Weiguo asked Zhu Ziming.
Fang Shengli on the side raised the corner of his mouth slightly when he heard this, as if he had foreseen the scene of everyone in Qingfeng Village going to school.
Zhu Ziming shook his head, "The farmers came to Qingfeng Village because they couldn't live any longer. How many people can read?"
"Well, brother, you see, now that we have electricity and electric lights, we don't need to light candles at night." Zhou Weiguo said, "But if electricity is used like this, it would be a bit wasteful."
"Yes, it's really wasteful to install a few lights just to install electricity." Zhu Ziming nodded in agreement.
"Brother, look at this. Let Xiao Ya lead the brothers to read every night from now on. Xiao Ya used to be a teacher in a middle school. In this way, the lights will not be on in vain. It can also be regarded as providing education to us in Qingfeng Village.
, you have made a contribution, what do you think?"
"..." Zhu Ziming was silent for a moment. He knew that Zhou Weiguo's suggestions would be beneficial to everyone in Qingfeng Village. However, he himself was illiterate, and any training or class organized by Zhou Weiguo would be of benefit to everyone in Qingfeng Village.
He was the head of the family and wanted to participate, so he hesitated for a moment. He was in his thirties, did he really want to sit down and study like a child? But he quickly said, "Brother, you are right.
In the past, we didn't have the conditions for us to learn to read. Now that we have the conditions, of course we should learn."
As a result, the first night adult cram school in Qingfengzhai was established.
…
"Country." Xiao Ya pointed to the words on the blackboard and read.
"Guo!" Below Wuyangyang is a group of men in their thirties and forties. There must be more than 100 people. In addition to the people in Qingfeng Village, there are also 8 people from Zhou Weiguo's more than 30 remnant soldiers.
"China!"
"China!"
…
At night, in the room.
"Weiguo, you really have a way!" Xiao Ya said to Zhou Weiguo with a smile.
Zhou Weiguo also smiled when he thought of those old men in class, "This way you won't have nothing to do."
"Yeah, but during class, I spent a lot of energy not to laugh." Xiao Ya laughed again, "Really, when I saw a bunch of older men in their thirties and forties below, this scene, this
Picture."
"The picture is too beautiful, you dare not look at it." Zhou Weiguo added.
"Hahaha!"
…
"What did you say?" Qiu Ming stood up, "Were the Japanese from Qingfeng Village the ones who attacked Yixiantian?"
"Reporting to the leader, the fellow villagers said that the bandits in Qingfeng Village who robbed their food said so. It is said that a new second-in-command came to their Qingfeng Village, and he led them to fight, and there were only a few casualties among them.
.”
"What's the name of their second-in-command?"
"What does it seem to be called, Zhou, Zhou..."
"Zhou Weiguo!" Zhang Chu answered from the side.
"Yes, my name is Zhou Weiguo!"
"Okay, you can go down first." Qiu Ming waved his hand, then sat down at his seat and looked at the people in the headquarters. At this time, Li Yong and Xu Guangrong's expressions were really wonderful.
"Let's talk about it. When I first came back, I listened to Lao Wu's words, saying that the anti-Japanese hero, the Kuomintang lieutenant general and division commander Zhou Weiguo came to our Hutou Mountain, and according to our organizational intelligence, this Zhou Weiguo is
I have the intention to join our Eighth Route Army." Qiu Ming said, "But as soon as I came back, I called Qi Fengguo, but I never thought about it."
"Captain, let me review!" Li Yong stood up and said.
"Captain, I'll review it too!" Xu Guangrong also stood up.
…
"I'll let you grab food, I'll let you grab food!" Zhou Weiguo stood in front of Li Wu with a wooden stick and said fiercely.
"Second in charge, we are bandits. If we don't steal food, what else can we do?" Li Wu winked at Zhu Ziming and cried miserably.
"Okay, you still have a point." Zhou Weiguo hit Li Wu on the back with a stick, causing Li Wu to kneel down and scream.
When the bandits saw this, they felt sorry for Li Wu and at the same time muttered in their hearts, we are just bandits.
"You are a bandit now, do you want to continue to be a bandit in the future?" Zhou Weiguo raised his voice, "Do you want your son or grandson to continue to be a bandit in the future?"
"The devils will eventually be driven out, and the country will eventually settle down. When that day comes, do you think the bandits can continue to be bandits?"
After Zhou Weiguo's words fell, it also triggered the thinking of everyone in Qingfeng Village. Indeed, they were all farmers originally. They became bandits when they couldn't survive. Once they took the word "bandit", their descendants would also have it.
stigma.
"Second in charge, I was wrong." Li Wunuonuo said.
"What's wrong?"
"I shouldn't be grabbing food, let alone the Eighth Route Army's food." Li Wu replied.
"Hiss, did you steal the Eighth Route Army's food?" Zhou Weiguo laughed angrily, but he felt quite happy, "Send it back to me!"
"Okay, okay." Li Wu stood up with a flattering smile on his face.
"Well, well, go stay somewhere cool." Zhou Weiguo waved his hand.
Li Wu ran away.
"Brother, you are right." Zhu Ziming said, "There is really nothing we can do about going up the mountain and weeding. We have become bandits ourselves, but we cannot let our descendants be shamed."
"Brother, we are now a serious anti-Japanese force," Zhou Weiguo said. "The food on the mountain should be enough for us to eat for more than a year. Even if we continue to recruit people, it will be enough. After a while, I will find a way to let us eat."
Do some business in the village."
"Business is good!" Zhu Ziming chuckled and said, "Okay, then I'll listen to you, brother."
…
Laiyang County Headquarters
"Colonel Tanaka was recalled by the North China Command due to unfavorable command of the battle." A Japanese major general with a mustache said to the crowd, "I was ordered by the command to lead the 11th Independent Mixed Brigade under my command and stationed in Laiyang.
, I hope you all can work together to wipe out the resistance in Hutou Mountain as soon as possible!"
"Hi!"
"I, Konoe Wen, would like to take care of you all." The Japanese major general bowed to everyone.
"His Excellency, the Brigade Commander, you are serious!"
