In any case, the hellish life of the 48 soldiers who participated in the special brigade selection training began. Other officers and soldiers were not idle either, and all units were proceeding in an orderly manner according to the training plan formulated by Liu Lang.
Ordinary soldiers may not have the right to know that they will have a fight with the Japanese army after the New Year, but officers above the company level have been awakened by Liu Lang intentionally or unintentionally. Although I don’t know why Liu Lang is so sure that the Kwantung Army will fight next year.
Invasion of Jehol, but everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before the Japanese invaded China.
When fighting, people will die. Only by training hard and training elite soldiers will fewer people die. This is a truth that everyone understands. With a sense of urgency, the Independent Regiment is like a clockwork machine.
, roaring forward.
The great ship of history is still moving forward according to its original traces. On September 26, Sichuan aftermath supervisor Liu Xiang and provincial chairman Liu Wenhui completely turned against each other. The situation was tense. In order to clear the rear, Liu Wenhui took the lead in gathering troops before Liu Xiang could react.
Chengdu, prepare to deal with Tian Songyao's tribe first and then fight Liu Xiang decisively.
The Sichuan War broke out on October 1. Luo Zezhou and Liu Wenhui's armies of the 12th Division of the 28th Army came into contact in Wusheng. On the 6th, Li Jiayu and Luo Zezhou attacked Shunqing and were defeated by Liu Wenhui's army. On the 10th, Liu Wenhui's 24th Army laid siege to
On the outskirts of Chengdu, Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao were under his command. On the 18th, Liu Xiang's army concentrated in Rongchang, with Tang Shizun, Pan Wenhua, and Wang Zuanxu as the general commanders. On the 20th, Liu Wenhui's army retreated from Shunqing to Suining. On the 21st, all Sichuan generals called the capital and asked Liu Wenhui to be relieved of his post.
, Liu Xiang was officially elected as the commander-in-chief of Sichuan-Kanglan appeasement, Tian Songyao was appointed as deputy commander, and Deng Xihou, Tian Songyao, Yang Sen, and Liu Xiang were elected as the commander-in-chief of the four routes. An unprecedented "Battle between Liu and Liu" broke out in Sichuan.
The Nineteenth Route Army also completely moved to Fujian and incorporated Chen Guohui, Zhang Zhen and other miscellaneous troops under the order of Chairman Chiang. However, the only difference is that this time the Nineteenth Route Army did not raise troops like in the past.
In order to occupy the Soviet area in western Fujian and the guerrilla zone in southern Fujian, they actively and secretly contacted the leaders of the Red Army.
This is because Liu Lang told Cai Tingkai that although the red army has a strong ability to absorb patriotic troops, it is also because of the bald principal's brazen betrayal of the revolution that it maintains a high degree of vigilance against the national military system. If you beat someone else
If you ask for help from others again, no matter who you are, you won’t believe it easily.
In fact, in history, it was precisely because the Red Army stood by and ignored the distrust of the Nineteenth Route Army that the Nineteenth Route Army was defeated so quickly. But that cannot be blamed on anyone. Anyone else might have done it in that situation.
Make the same choice! The 150,000 troops used by the bald principal to besiege Fujian cannot be resisted by the 19th Route Army and the thousands of red troops in Fujian.
Although Liu Lang didn't make it too clear about the secret conversation with Cai Tingkai, the general idea was that he wanted to get rid of the control of the bald principal. He didn't necessarily have to change his ways. It was only right to endure the humiliation and wait for the outbreak of a full-scale war with the Japanese invaders.
But from Cai Tingkai's stroke of a pen and sending 500 elite troops to Liu Lang, it can be seen that his and the commander-in-chief's dissatisfaction with the bald principal has reached its peak. If they can stay in a corner away from the Nanjing regime, it will definitely explode.
However, Liu Lang's straightforward statement of their thoughts made Cai Tingkai a little more scrupulous. A small major communications officer could actually know it, not to mention the bald principal who was already adept at political struggle?
However, judging from the current situation of the Nineteenth Route Army in Fujian, it is much better than in the past historical time and space. Cai Tingkai and Jiang Guangding did not blindly expand their troops as they did in the past, but resisted the Nanjing government's non-stop orders to attack the Red Army.
Under the pressure of the Soviet area, the existing troops were purged and moved to Fujian for three months, but they could only replenish the troops of less than 30,000 people. You know, once the 19th Route Army arrived in Fujian, it took half a year to expand its troops to nearly 30,000.
One hundred thousand people, but these one hundred thousand people without much sense of belonging were surrounded by the bald principal's 150,000 troops. Fifty thousand people collapsed first, and surrendered without even a decent resistance. They really resisted for a month.
Yes, there are still more than 20,000 people.
On the Fujian side, the 19th Route Army was able to withstand the pressure, naturally not because of their great reputation, but because the bald principal’s attention was not on them at all. At the moment, the bald principal was dispatching an army of 400,000 to the Red Army’s base area.
Carry out an iron barrel-style encirclement.
However, it is still the same as in the past historical time and space. Taizu, the most outstanding military strategist of the Red Army who later became the first founder of the country, was still transferred from the military command position of the Red Army and became the leader of the government. This made Liu Lang slightly
It is a pity that although the future commander-in-chief and prime minister of the Republic will lead the Red Army in the Yihuang area in February next year, wiping out three divisions in total and capturing nothing, the bald principal will sadly become a transport major again.
Captain, but Liu Lang's hope to see the most talented military thinker in the history of the Republic who brought the essence of mobile warfare to the extreme was still in vain. Although he, a little butterfly, worked hard, he kicked the butt of the wheel of history.
The feet, however, could only sadly leave a footprint, and did not change the rut that should have existed in time and space.
In a blink of an eye, it is winter. Although it is not particularly cold in Sichuan in December because the Qinling Mountains block the cold wind from the north, it still snows heavily. The temperature is several times lower than that in Sichuan eighty years later due to the greenhouse effect.
Spend.
The Battle of Sichuan Province also came to a conclusion after two months of fierce fighting. At the end of the month, Liu Wenhui resigned due to the defeat and retreated to Ya'an with 20,000 remaining troops. The Battle of Erliu was temporarily suspended.
Cai Dadao and Niu Er were trekking through the forest wearing the slightly bulky winter camouflage uniforms they had just issued a month ago. After three months of hellish training, both of them had lost their youthfulness.
Their increasingly darker faces and determined eyes told everyone that even in this harsh environment, they would still complete the most difficult assessment project of the Special Forces Brigade - survival in the wild.
Cai Dadao looked longingly at the clearly distinguishable mountain road a few miles down the mountain and licked his extremely dry lips. He knew very well what his body needed, and he needed hot food and water.
There is water in the mountains, but drinking a lot of raw water in such cold weather can easily cause diarrhea. If he has diarrhea, he will definitely die if he does not go down the mountain to seek help.
Water is okay, but I am really thirsty. Drinking a small amount of dew on the leaves and pure mountain streams can maintain the necessary moisture in the body. The most painful thing is food. Although it is difficult to drill wood to make fire, it does not mean that it will make the body hydrated.
People are desperate, but the simulated war environment tells them from the beginning that smoke is not allowed, there is no fire, and they can only eat raw food.
This is already their seventh day of marching in the forest. From the first day they entered the forest with a small bag of salt, a knife and a map, the duo relied on Cai Dadao's fairly skilled hunting skills.
In their survival, they encountered fat snakes hiding in caves, pine nuts and acorns hidden by squirrels in tree holes, small fish caught in the cold in mountain streams, and even grass leopards that attacked them because of hunger...
..all became food in their bellies, but they were all raw food. The hot blood of the unlucky grass leopard became the hottest food for the two recruits these days.
Wherever there are mountain roads, there are people there, and there are people there who have what their bodies need.
However, as long as they go down the mountain, they lose.
Looking at Niu Er in front of him, who was already swaying and close to overdraft but still stubbornly moving forward without even looking at the mountain road, Cai Dadao sighed slightly and retracted his almost greedy gaze. He was sure that even if he risked violating the rules,
This slightly stubborn brother would not eat the hot food that he had risked going to the farmhouse at the foot of the mountain. Moreover, as long as he could walk out of this forest alive, he would definitely report him, even if he had helped him in the previous assessment.
he.
Niu Er, who is not particularly outstanding in all aspects, is able to persist to this point, probably because of his extraordinary stubbornness!
He is a stubborn brother who makes it hard not to respect him. Cai Dadao even thinks that the reason why he can survive like a savage in the mountains for seven days is all because of Niu Er, although almost all the food he eats is because of his outstanding hunter.
