No one knew that Deputy Zhang, who was so impressive just now, was actually sweating behind his back. In the twelve trucks, in addition to food and other supplies that fooled the Japanese checkpoint patrols, there were more hidden people. The Japanese sergeant only wanted to
If you look a little harder, you might see officers and soldiers from a company of the 12th Division Guard Battalion holding submachine guns hidden under the canvas of the fourth and fifth vehicles.
Fortunately, Lieutenant Xibei's toughness suppressed the Japanese army, and he did not use the legendary big ear scraper. You can slap him as a direct superior officer, but you, a second-line lieutenant of the baggage squadron, can even slap him as a veteran.
How about a slap in the face to the squad leader's sergeant?
Deputy Zhang Tuan was extremely wise and won this battle, which only the Chinese themselves knew, with the unique attitude of the Japanese army.
Not only did he breathe a sigh of relief, but the blue soldiers of the Independent Regiment around him, who seemed to be lazy and relaxed but had already raised their alert to the highest level, also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
As a colonel counselor valued by the National Government's Military and Government Department, and also regarded by the Red Army as the toughest nail into the enemy's interior, Zhang Ruhao naturally has his own merits.
Judging from his ability to handle the crisis just now, not many people in the entire independent group could do it. Of course, apart from his own characteristics, his performance that resembled a Japanese officer was the real reason for the Japanese sergeant to give in.
There was a reason why Liu Lang sent him to be the commander of the vanguard.
The most amazing thing about Deputy Zhang is his strong learning ability. When he came to the Independent Regiment, he was making progress in every aspect.
Because he was responsible for the preparation of the Blue Army, he not only had a thorough understanding of the Japanese army from military regulations to marching tactics to living habits, which was required of the Blue Army, but even the humanities and history of Japan's main island. Even if it is a real Japan.
Human beings are far behind him in this respect. They are absolutely academic Japanese military officers.
Before coming to Jindong, he also learned about the lives and character traits of the 20th Division from the division commander Kawagishi Bunzaburo to the chief of staff Kukimura Musashi to the two brigade commanders, several regiment captains and even the twelve infantry captains.
All researched thoroughly.
Koizumi, who had the most interactions with him, had already admired the Chinese commander. Even he didn't know many high-level Japanese military officers, and he was a treasured one.
Of course, Liu Lang's trust in his partner didn't just mean that he could play his best role of lurking.
During the nearly ten days of fighting at Niangziguan, although Deputy Zhang rarely stood at the front desk, most of them stood behind Liu Lang, like a supporting role with no sense of existence. But Liu Lang was
We know that the Independent Regiment's success in consecutive battles over the past few days is inseparable from the shadow of this red regimental deputy. It is with his presence and help that he can devote all his thoughts to fighting the enemy.
The credit is no less than that of Liu Lang.
What moved Liu Lang even more was that this partner, who came with a red mission and even made it clear to both of them, never had any intention of competing with him for military power, even those who were transferred from red army instructors to company commanders or even battalion commanders.
Although he holds a key position as a senior adjutant, he has never taken the initiative to reveal his identity and cultivate his cronies.
It seemed that his arrival was just to help him solve his problems and solve his worries, and would never threaten his unrivaled position in the army.
Of course, Liu Lang never wanted the Independent Regiment to become the Liu Family Army serving only him. From the beginning to the end, he always put the interests of the country and the nation first. This elite army that he spent five years building with his own hands was
Throughout the Great Patriotic War, it was the country’s army.
However, when two voices appear in an army, especially when a decision is needed, it is undoubtedly extremely dangerous. In the next four years, the powerful army that was destroyed in Jiangnan would have been destroyed if it were not for General Ye and the Political Commissar.
People have different opinions, and the most important seven hours are delayed, and his fate may completely change.
Liu Lang didn't want such a tragedy to happen to the Independent Group.
Such a political commissar or regimental deputy is what Liu Lang needs most. Undoubtedly, Zhang Ruhao is doing a good job at this time.
Including this time he led the two companies of the Blue Army that he had built, disguised as a Japanese baggage squadron, to approach the defensive position of the Japanese artillery regiment. Looking at the entire independent regiment, he was the one to do it.
Even Liu Tuanzuo can't do it. To be honest, there are not fat men in the Japanese army, but there are really no fat men as tough as him. With that size, he can be regarded as a soldier without careful questioning, but if the Japanese second lieutenant officer who is the leader is too conspicuous
If so, it would be really easy to reveal flaws.
Yes, the Blue Army has been serving as a grindstone for other battalions and companies of the independent regiment since its establishment. However, in addition to daily training, the entire Blue Army studied Japanese hard and even learned how the Japanese wore clogs and loincloths during their breaks.
Living habits are not just to completely imitate the Japanese army.
That is, at a critical moment, they will transform into a Japanese army that is difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
The Japanese are not fools. It doesn’t mean that if you can speak a few simple words in Japanese and put on a Japanese military uniform, they will treat you as a close companion. Just like the Japanese lurking in China, no matter how fluently you speak Chinese
, and flaws will eventually be revealed.
Didn't Xiao Mudun'er judge that those guys were Japanese through the hygienic habit of peeing and lead them into a death trap? Even a little kid in China can recognize foreigners, let alone cunning and cruel ones.
Where is the Japanese army?
Therefore, it took Zhang Ruhao more than three years to fully build this Blue Army unit that completely imitated the Japanese army, and he had the confidence to take them to the Japanese defense line. However, the chance of success cannot be said to be 100%.
I have heard of one person who successfully disguised himself as Japanese, but I have never heard of two people who successfully disguised nearly 400 people.
Of course, with the help of Comrade Usaburo Koizumi, who was a Japanese soldier a few hours ago and is now one of our own, this chance has increased by at least 20%.
In addition to these, there was an unexpected seizure that also increased their chances of success. Otherwise, Liu Lang would not have dared to let his good helper take more than 300 Sichuan men to take that risk.
The biggest role of the field radio seized in Jingxing County was to prevent the Japanese army from sending warnings to the 20th Division headquarters in Shimen. The Japanese military radio code book seized from the 20th Heavy Regiment's Harada Major was the first to start.
played a big role.
During the battle between Qigen Village and the River Valley, Liu Lang did not seize the Japanese military message codebook. The desperate Japanese army had enough time to burn the codebook after the radio station was damaged. Harada Shinichi may have thought that he would be able to escape, but
Perhaps he forgot the existence of the message codebook he carried with him.
So, when all the belongings found on Harada Shinichi's body, including his extremely sharp command knife, were handed over to the frontline headquarters, Liu Lang almost smiled when he saw the small notebook.
With the message codebook, he could carry out the most important part of his tactical plan this night - tactical deception.
Before the two units set off, the communications platoon sent a telegram to the 26th Artillery Regiment Headquarters that a baggage squadron was about to deliver food supplies, while the Shimen Division Regiment Headquarters sent an inquiry telegram asking if it was possible.
Leading troops can be sent overnight to the Chaiyu Town area to get in touch with the fighting infantry brigade.
The former is naturally to pave the way for his vanguard troops to infiltrate in disguise, while the latter is for the sake of Anshimen's 20th Division Headquarters.
The two reply calls received twenty minutes later proved that the tactical deception was completely successful. The 26th Regiment even left the password to pass the checkpoint in the reply call. The Japanese army was unprepared for the fall of Jingxing County.
Preparation after preparation, some even started three years ago. Liu Lang has already taken every detail to the extreme.
Just as the future general lamented, victory is never achieved by being patriotic and sacrificing your life for the country and the nation. Victory is always reserved for those who are prepared.
Liu Lang's preparations didn't stop there.
And less than three minutes after the convoy successfully passed the first line of defense of the Japanese artillery wing, the Japanese troops who had just opened the cans and had not even had time to taste the deliciousness of the canned kimchi beef were attacked.
The attack came from the 7th detachment of the Special Forces Brigade that Liu Lang had already deployed in this area. Their mission was to quickly clean up the Japanese patrols after the convoy left, clearing obstacles for the subsequent main force to advance.
The entire special operations brigade has 7 squads, and 5 of them were used in the battle of Jingxing County. There is a squad of 7 people deployed here, and Yu Xiancheng, who has never been seen, personally leads another one, 60 kilometers away.
They are not only the sharpest knives in Liu Lang's hand, but also Liu Lang's eyes that can see through the entire battlefield.
Five years of hard training showed off in this battle.
