Of course, Liu Lang could only use the word "climb" to fool General He at this moment. He was still three to four hundred miles away from the Great Wall, and a full seven hundred miles away from Peiping!
Fortunately, Liu Lang was very glad that he had excused himself for being seriously injured and comatose, otherwise he still wouldn't know how to deal with this situation.
Liu Lang knew that what he did could not be hidden from the old foxes in China and Japan.
But so what if he can't hide it? As long as no one catches him for what Liu Lang is doing, the big guys on both sides will have to hold their noses and admit it.
It’s easy to admit it or not. Come and arrest me! With Liu Lang’s current speed of leaping over the mountain stream with a mortar on his back, I’m afraid he could move the entire Kwantung Army to Rehe and carry out a heavy blockade of all mountainous areas.
There is still a one percent chance.
Obviously, that's impossible.
Therefore, no matter how much Nobuyoshi Muto likes to chop desks to use as firewood in the fireplace, he can only accept this.
The Sixth Division, which had cleaned up the mess of the Eighth Division, left a mixed brigade of 6,000 people as the garrison of Rehe under the order of General Muto Nobuyoshi. The rest of the troops did not stay in Rehe for long and continued to return.
The three eastern provinces.
Although a mixed brigade does not have as many personnel as the remnants of the Eighth Division, its combat effectiveness is quite different. The combat effectiveness of a mixed brigade with artillery, infantry and cavalry collaboration is much higher than that of a pure infantry brigade.
It is enough to deter the Chinese resistance forces in the entire Jehol.
All the Japanese troops knew that the Eighth Division was defeated because the artillery was so crowded, and the remaining infantry was exhausted by the crazy Great Wall Regiment, which depleted their energy and ammunition reserves, until they were finally defeated by a group of peasants.
He came up with a coward and kicked him to death in the mountains of Rehe.
The battle examples of the Eighth Division have since been written into the Japanese army's army drills, and protecting artillery has become the top priority of every combat unit.
Liu Lang also didn't expect that his battle at the Great Wall would make the Japanese a lot more cautious, making it unintentionally more difficult for him to attack their artillery in the future.
But even if he knew, Liu Lang would still do it. If you are making progress, your enemy is not an idiot and will naturally make progress. But it doesn't matter. As long as you make more progress than him, he will still become a piece of food in your bowl.
.
No one is a fool. For example, take the Independent Regiment's battle at the Great Wall. Whether it was tactics, combatant quality, soldier equipment, light weapons or heavy weapons, detailed reports have long been put on the desks of senior officials from both China and Japan.
Although Liu Lang's tactics are as unconventional as an antelope's horns and no trace can be found, he is a genius military commander, but his good use of scouts is still well known by the senior officials of both sides.
The Kwantung Army, which was beaten out of Xiang by Liu Lang, took the lead in establishing an independent reconnaissance squadron. This was a unit that had never appeared in the Japanese army's previous battle sequences. In the past, their top reconnaissance troops were often composed of infantry squadrons with the strongest combat effectiveness.
Responsible for.
However, after the Battle of the Great Wall, the Kwantung Army discovered that the Chinese scouts were not only serving as vanguard reconnaissance on the battlefield, but also capable of tracking, ambushing, and assassinating. Even just three single soldiers could harass a division of tens of thousands of people day and night.
Ning, and a behemoth with tens of thousands of people can't do anything with just a few single soldiers.
Let the professionals deal with it. The Japanese, who are very good at learning, also started their own military experiments.
It's just that one is a blind man crossing the river by feeling the stones, and the other is carrying the sharp blade of the Republic accumulated by the Red Republic's decades of special operations experience in the 80s. In terms of special operations, Liu Lang can still be groping even if he is blindfolded.
Stages of the Little Devil's Ten Streets.
The generals of the national army were not stupid either. They saw the huge role played by Liu Lang's special forces in this war, and they also learned to allocate elite soldiers to their respective units and established reconnaissance platoons and reconnaissance companies to serve as various wartime tasks.
Individual combat missions that cannot be completed by ordinary soldiers.
Of course, this is not the most important thing.
High-level officials from both sides noticed the independent regiment's most powerful light weapon in this battle.
It can be said that without this machine gun with an astonishing rate of fire that makes people's scalp numb and greatly reduces their will to fight, no matter how high-quality the independent regiment's personnel are and how genius Liu Lang's tactics are, it will have an undefeated outcome at best.
The Eighth Division would never have suffered such a big loss from Luo Wenyu. In the end, the entire army only escaped from two brigades, and the army's establishment was almost abolished.
In fact, if it were not for the fact that several senior officers of the Eighth Division were still serving as high-level officials in the Army Ministry, the Eighth Division, which had its flag burned and had a casualty rate as high as 90%, would probably have become the first division in the history of the Japanese army to be abolished.
Established division-level troops.
Fortunately, Matsuda Kunisan went through a lot of hardships and fumbled in the mountains for several days with the two infantry brigades that met halfway, and finally found the organization - the Sixth Division that was heading north.
The sight of the nearly two thousand beggar soldiers almost chewing open their iron lunch boxes without taking a single bite made Masaemon Sakamoto lose the energy to scold his subordinate Matsuda Kunizo, even if he killed the entire 14th Brigade
They were all thrown into the Great Wall and Rehe.
Of course, that is a topic for later, let’s not mention it for now.
Let’s talk about what happened in the city of Beiping while Liu Lang was still heading towards Chengde in the mountains.
Because of the noise caused by the MG42 machine gun.
According to a later investigation by the Japanese military, in the Luo Wenyu offensive and defensive battle alone, as many as 10,000 Japanese soldiers were killed directly or indirectly by that machine gun with such a high rate of fire that it was impossible to count.
Among them, the 4th Brigade, which died in one battle, contributed the most.
The 4th Brigade, which had never experienced such a high-rate machine gun, chose one of the stupidest mass formation charges in the history of the Japanese army, which caused the extremely high-rate machine gun to maximize its performance. In front of that machine gun,
Any intensive charge is almost equivalent to standing in line and being shot. Of course, such stupid things were also done by the Japanese army in the Battle of Qingdao in the Russo-Japanese War. The price paid that time was the death of 15,000 Japanese soldiers.
before.
The Japanese noticed it, and the senior officials of the government were certainly not blind.
The Japanese were suffering from the fact that they had not captured this kind of machine gun, so they could only sit at the conference table and wait in a hurry, hoping that the spies densely located in northern China would play their role and see if they could get a sample back for military research.
Compared with that kind of machine gun, the Type 92 heavy machine gun's rate of fire of 500 rounds per minute is like a turtle crawling.
Including He Yizhi, all Japanese spies received this secret order. The Great Wall Regiment station located in Peiping City was like a piece of fat targeted by sharks who smelled blood.
If the wounded and bloody Japanese could only hide in the darkness and spy.
The generals of the national army, including the agents instructed by a certain big boss, would be much more ugly.
They almost made no secret of their coveting for the MG42 machine gun, and wished they could organize a group-style behavior to "labor the troops" of the Great Wall Regiment. As soon as the chickens, ducks and fish were placed in the independent group, the big guys started talking to each other.
Becoming curious about a certain rumored weapon.
However, to everyone's surprise, the Great Wall Regiment, which was supposed to hide the machine guns as treasures, turned out to be very generous.
They all blushed slightly because of their generosity.
However, no one will give up just because they are blushing, so they can’t wait to reach out to the machine gun handle, okay?
A mature man, especially a man with a "hat" on his head, will never give up on his goals because of some indescribable shame.
At this point, all the generals who came to the Great Wall Regiment met this standard.
