Chapter 1199 The hemp rope is really cut at the smallest points
"Hey! No matter how many people there are, the Chinese are still vulnerable! Especially the beggar army that even the Chinese despise!" Rokuro Matsuura stood on the mountainside of Zhanggu Mountain that he had already occupied. After reading through it, the Chinese had no time to lift it up.
The remains of the soldiers who walked away had the weaving written on the chests of their uniforms, crazily belittling their opponents.
This is actually a disguised form of encouragement for themselves, allowing them to regain their courage!
"Hi! Your Excellency, Division Commander, the 27th Division has called, and its two infantry regiments are about to arrive at the previously scheduled meeting point, which is only 30 miles away from the nearest area of our department!" An army colonel standing next to Matsuura Rokuro replied respectfully.
The faces of several Japanese military officers around them all showed joy. Thinking about being surrounded by the Chinese army yesterday, everyone felt like they were mourning. Especially the division commander was furious. Unexpectedly, today, in just one battle, China was tested.
The army's combat strength is insufficient, and it can be said that there is only one village in which there is darkness and bright flowers!
"Order the Aoki troops to advance quickly, and while the Chinese are still reacting, open a way forward for the entire division. We will make the trap carefully constructed by the Chinese a joke. As the Chinese say, all the water in the bamboo basket will be in vain!"
Matsuura Rokuro looked around and was satisfied that the dejection on the faces of his subordinates had been wiped away, and he continued to give orders.
Your Excellency, division commander, are the mountain troops following closely behind?" The Japanese Army Colonel asked, "You all command the operations of each department according to the deployment last night! Matsuura Rokuro did not directly answer the question of his chief of staff, but waved his hand and drove away
Surrounded by engineers, baggage troops and other captains of the Xiaozuo class.
Order the mountain troops to keep a distance of 5 meters from the Zhicheng troops and support the 52nd Artillery Regiment and the 106th Artillery Regiment at any time. With your military order, we must act rashly!" When there were only two people left, Aoki Hachiro's face returned to gloom.
Shen Sheng rebelled.
Lieutenant General of the Army had a chill in his chest. I am the chief of staff of the division that Hachiro Uesari single-handedly promoted. I have been with the Lieutenant General of the Army for only eight years, so I know his habits very well.
It was Brigadier Zhang who heard that Zhang Gushan's defense line had been lost and that the 153rd Brigade might have to allocate part of its force to deal with the 106th Division's breakout. He was so angry that he went two levels higher and sent a message to the First Corps Headquarters, requesting that the 153rd Brigade be sent to the headquarters immediately.
The 43rd Army's many generals and brigade commanders were put to death on the spot. Brigadier Wang Xiao, who still had more than 3,000 troops, slowed down the march of the main force. He rushed to join the 148th Brigade after sunset and killed all the Japanese troops. He also captured 10 75-caliber artillery pieces.
Door, thousands of cannonballs!
Hachiro Aoki put it more clearly, Keiichi Matsuura understands my intention, use my life to contribute the most to the division!
Therefore, before the reconnaissance leader sent a report that enemy troops were found within 1,000 meters, many Japanese army generals were forced to issue a military order for the entire army to retreat into Thunder Gorge.
Hachiro Aoki, who had just been activated, had no ability to question the military orders of his superiors, but that did not give Hachiro Aoki the best commanding ability overall.
But what made Hachiro Aoki burst into tears even more was Keiichi Matsuura and my fellow 136th Infantry Brigade.
Zhang Gushan's defense line was broken, and the person who wanted Brigadier Wang's head the most was Comrade Lao Guo, or even Commander Xue Xiao who was sitting 70 kilometers away, but he was busy packing 74 of the 27th Division in his cloth bag.
army, especially the general and brigade commander of the 153rd Brigade of the 51st Division of the 74th Army who served as the main force in encircling and annihilating the Japanese invaders.
It is said that Zhang Duojiang also read the message over and over several times before finishing it and scolding Wang Xiaotou in a low voice for being shameful. I am very vague. Once the Sichuan Army blocks the 106th Division, it will be the turn of the entire 74th Army.
Being attacked from the front and back, perhaps the surrounding 100,000 small troops would arrive without support in ten hours, but at this time the 74th Army did not know how many officers and soldiers would be bloodied on the battlefield.
That kind of firepower weakness is definitely inferior to that of an infantry division of the 74th Army.
With ammunition reserves, Xiao Yue could survive, but with food, the entire division would starve to death outside the hill. With fewer people, it would be a burden.
I made that decision. Obviously, I was not optimistic about the future of the Matsuura troops with more than 7,000 troops. I just tried my best to belittle the Chinese and Sichuan troops who dared to lose their defense line. It was just a move to protect their subordinates.
Uesei Hachiro of Zhanggushan and the Chinese and Japanese soldiers in the Wanjialing area all know that the 106th Division is finished. This is actually the main reason why Matsuura Keiichi continued to launch conical assaults even though he knew it was a dead end.
Hachiro Aoki's operation is god-level.
I still don't have more than 10,000 small troops in my hand. Relying on the defense lines at Zhanggu Mountain and other places, the living space of the entire division is less than ten square kilometers, and there is no chance to stand still and wait for reinforcements. Pre-war inventory found that 3,800 Japanese corpses were not left, only
There were 300 wounded soldiers, and less than 130 people finally surrendered to the Chinese army, which was a total annihilation.
Therefore, relying on General Zhang Meng's emotional output, the 82 mortars available to Brigadier Wang Xiao became 40, plus two 150 mortars specially weakened by the military department before the war. The 46 artillery pieces were so overwhelming.
smashed into the Japanese troops in Thunder Gorge.
However, the military orders from the forward division headquarters were almost every ten minutes, ordering me to slow down my march and defeat all enemies blocking the retreat.
Although Hachiro Aoki's military career was as bleak as that of his classmates like me, his typical academic qualities have been recognized by many small people, so there was no chance of him coming out of the hot palace. At this time, the canyon was narrow.
The degree is only about 350 meters narrow, and the slope of the mountain reaches nearly 40 degrees. The two infantry brigades, which were planning to retreat to the lowlands for reconnaissance under the orders of their respective commanders, were still struggling to climb through the dense bushes...
Before scolding him, he gave a helpless order. A total of 15 mortar squads were transferred from the troops directly under the brigade headquarters and various regiments to support the Leiming Gorge defense line not far away from the 153rd Brigade.
.
The food that could last for a week can now only be eaten for eight days even if the food is eaten freely and there are 7,000 more mouths.
That battle was about killing the Japanese, not us! But Brigadier Wang took his bitten finger and wrote eight words in blood on his chest: "Death! Die! Die!"
Just like in the offensive and defensive battle in the morning, the occasionally adventurous Aomoto Hachiro took the risk of using a cone assault with a terrifying casualty rate, and achieved a small success.
Wang Xiaotou, a mortal man, cannot be put to death, but my rising star has become a general. No matter what, we must prevent the Sichuan army from consuming as much as the Japanese army.
Because, in that section of the canyon, Brigadier Wang Xiao, who was also desperate, gathered nearly 40 troops. The damn Chinese actually attacked my baggage regiment and gave back 4% of the torch division of Siga.
Ten bags of luggage were burned to the ground.
On the other hand, the Japanese troops at the bottom of the valley really had what they wanted. They were slow to dig a pit and squat down. Those with more agile hands and feet could only lie down in front of the shallow ridge, which was of no use to them!
Difficulties are forgiven for strong generals. The worst thing is that on the battlefield that requires strong generals, the Corps Headquarters, the Military Headquarters, and the Division Headquarters all have no punishment. This only fuels the arrogance of that fierce general, and even directly generates electricity to
Brigadier Wang Xiao asked me to commit suicide and apologize.
But the prerequisite for standing still and waiting for help is that there is still nothing to eat or drink, and it is still chewing tree bark!
However, after all, I still saved some money and left two artillery squads and one infantry squad, a total of about 3,000 people, at the front, so that if the enemy did not attack, I would not have the strength to counterattack.
"Zhang Xiandi Junjian: I, Wang Xiaotou, have Tian as the brigade commander of Duojiang in the Beggar Army. During the Battle of Zhanggushan, the more than 4,000 officers and soldiers of your brigade were unable to withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of dozens of Japanese artillery pieces, so they had no choice but to enter.
At the Thunder Gorge defense line, more than 7,000 Japanese invaders are attacking your defense line!
Even if the whole division was surrounded by a small Chinese army, fundamentally speaking, it was my problem, but it was the commander of the Eleventh Army, Okamura Daiji, who was several years older than Aoki Hachiro, who issued the military order.
The Lieutenant General of the army is now a popular fried chicken. It is said that before that battle started, it was very unlikely that I would be able to advance to the next level.
In the eyes of the army general, this was a hilly area with a piece of flat land sandwiched between two mountains. It was already early October, and all the crops had not yet been harvested. The bright land was very flat and very solid.
As long as there are no trucks or carriages, it is suitable for pure infantry marches.
"It's going to be troublesome. Your division has no way out now. The Matsuura troops are already your division's sharpest swords. If we break through the Chinese army's defense line, your division will no longer have any chance of survival."
Hachiro Aoki cast his gaze towards the distant mountains, and he was already filled with ferocious sights. The march in the Thunderous Gorge was said to be going smoothly. There was never a large group of Chinese troops attacking from below. The heavy machine gun squadron, mortar squadron and infantry retreated with the main force.
The artillery brigade had to stop temporarily and cooperate with the infantry to attack those who were at the infantry company level with more than a hundred people or the infantry battalion level with hundreds of people. How can I put it? I can only say that barefoot people are afraid of wearing shoes.
The half-white message that was probably fatal was really difficult for Brigadier Wang Xiao, who had been studying in the school for several years. The meaning was very vague: This is not because you are dead, but my little brother can also do it.
After the damage was done, Lei Ming Gorge was the front line of defense. Faced with such a record, who would dare to cut off Brigadier Wang Xiao’s head? Even if Zhang Gushan’s defense line was still able to get back, “Commander of the division commander, please give me your help immediately.”
Commander Zhicheng Brigade called, asking us to be more careful!" The Japanese Army officer immediately raised his head and said.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The blood-curdling sound of mortars coming from all directions struck three hours ago. The 136th Infantry Brigade followed by Matsuura Keiichi and two artillery squads of the 52nd Artillery Regiment made an appointment.
More than 7,000 people arrived at Leiming Gorge. Because Brigadier Wang Xiao, who had not yet completed his battle, had no reserve team, even I placed my brigade headquarters 300 meters away from the front line.
But what makes the generals extremely frightened is that your brigade's artillery fire is still thin, and even if thousands of officers and soldiers die, you still can't stop the enemy's front. Please be prepared to face the enemy from both sides!
Hot sweat broke out on Japanese Army Sergeant's vest. I finally understood the thoughts of my division commander. As long as I could carve out a way for the entire division to survive, even if the entire army in the regiment was exhausted, it was worth it.
Immediately afterwards, the most explosive sound of boom! Boom! Boom! The hunt is not finished yet!
The battlefield at that time was not between the 5,000 officers and soldiers of the 149th Brigade versus the 4,000 Japanese infantry, but the 4,000 soldiers of the 148th Brigade fighting against the 4,000 Japanese soldiers. The strength of the two sides was about the same, and the difference in firepower was too little. It was just that the geographical advantage over the Chinese soldiers was very small, and it was completely
The condescension means that the main force of the infantry brigade was engaged in a bloody battle with the three infantry teams of the 111th Infantry Brigade of the 106th Division who arrived without temporary trenches and rocks as bunkers!
During the battle, my tactics often seemed a bit rigid. Although they were flexible, they were often fatally accurate. The entire battle in Thunder Gorge actually took only two hours to start. However, the Empire was China. Even if the land could not be reached in time, it was still possible.
There's no air support, right?
This was really thrilling. Comrade Lao Guo led the team to rush to the Leiming Gorge defense line. He must have watched Lao Wang come to the front line in person with a pistol and machete, and there were not many people stopping the Lieutenant General and letting the Lieutenant General surrender under heavy fire.
On the front line, it is estimated that the battle has not yet begun. Comrade Lao Guo, who was still in a rage, shot the young brigade commander to death. Before the battle, the first words of young brigade commander Wang, who was allowed to plead guilty and meritorious service, when he saw Tang Dao were not
: "I was so close to being tricked to death by his kid!"
As soon as they came up quickly, the surging bullets would easily penetrate the Japanese's bodies, whether they were dead or alive.
The only reason why Matsuura Keiichi dared to retreat was that after climbing to the top of a large mountain and observing with a telescope, the canyon was several thousand meters long. Once the entire army retreated and was ambushed, it would be difficult to turn around and return without a chance.
And because that unlucky boy was in the wrong team, he was suppressed by the indoor shroud. Taking advantage of the personnel adjustment, he was deprived of the position of commander of my 10th Division and was included in the reserve force. It was not until the later planning of the Central China Campaign that the small army base camp was named the 10th Division.
The remaining divisions of the Eighth Division were used as the backbone and organized into the 106th Division. Hachiro Aoki had no chance to make a comeback.
The 43rd Army obtained a small amount of firearms from the Xuzhou secret arsenal. It was fake. It only had 12 150 heavy guns. However, it was possible to bomb the 106th Division in the field without bombing from planes all over the world and no artillery on the ground.
The group also had a happy face.
The ferocious firepower that can be weakened by being defeated is one thing, and the dangerous terrain is also another thing. The most important thing is that Comrade Lao Guo, who was forced to do something, dispatched my reserve team. After all the hard work, it was Zhong Zai.
The Bu Guan scorer in Cong 5 who was beaten back by the golden bullet is now famous, but he once led the death squads to counterattack the defense line in the battle of Zhanggushan in time and space, so his reputation was not that good, and he recently became the 4th commander of the 74th Army.
Commander.
However, that area is Zhanggu Mountain, and the slope is much smaller than this area. That is to say, the bushes full of thorns also blocked the Japanese army's footsteps.
According to a Japanese junior soldier who knelt down and surrendered before the war, he recalled that within five minutes, my ears heard no sound except explosions!
The truth is often cruel and heart-stopping!
The Battle of Thunder Gorge ended perfectly with the annihilation of 7,000 Japanese invaders!
When the divisional army of our time was destroyed in the battle, we encountered an encounter. "The Chinese army blocking you is the 26th Division of the Chinese 43rd Army!" Aoki Hachiro said gloomily, "We are
Among the hundreds of infantry divisions China invested in the Battle of Songhu, it was one of the seven worst-performing infantry divisions. Does he think we will enter and leave the defense line in such a complicated manner?"
But this is the firepower possessed by the entire infantry army. Just Brigadier Wang’s two infantry regiments, plus a guard battalion and an artillery company with 150 heavy troops, it is absolutely impossible to possess the kind of firepower now. Matsuura Keiichi is indeed a ruthless person.
People are like that, and they still resort to Hachiro Uisege's cone assault tactics.
In order to ensure a fierce battle in the Thunder Gorge, Zhou Laoqiao personally led 800 death squads to rush towards the Japanese artillery position at the back of the canyon. Not to mention that the Japanese army could completely penetrate Brigadier Wang Xiao's defense line. Even if they did, what would happen?
It was up to the military headquarters or the corps to decide. He was a peer. What a fool! Normally, the hot-tempered Brigadier Wang would have scolded him back.
I have lost my defense line, and my dear brother asks you to kill yourself to thank the people of the country. You will be deeply guilty of this. However, the enemy invaders have not been eliminated, so I want to survive for half a day. On the same day, the enemy will fight at the front line of defense in Lei Ming Gorge! Then we will go forward.
The Japanese army generals who had not yet been killed by the little bad head actually launched three cone assaults within an hour, but they were all declared the worst.
In seven years, he was promoted from the deputy chief of staff of the Kwantung Army to a commander who could not command a small army in ten directions. That in itself is not enough to explain the problem.
Fortunately, we won a small victory in the battle at Thunder Gorge!
In the end, the reason why I continued to engage in such cruel tactics was because I gave up. Rather, it was because I ended up with many soldiers who continued to commit suicide like that.
But the initiator of that cruel incident took an infantry battalion and lurked into the hills again!
The smallest soldier in the brigade was left behind. He was one of the smallest soldiers. Hachiro Uesaki attended the Kyoto Army Infantry School from his early childhood, and previously attended the Central Army Infantry School, the Army Noncommissioned Officer School and the Japanese Army Elementary School.
, he does not have an extremely good military education resume, and he and Madoka Doi, Koetsu Aoi, Yanagawa Heisuke, Ushijima Sadao and others are all classmates in Lu Xiaoxiao, but compared with my classmates, Aoki Hachiro is at the bottom.
He did not become the commander of the 10th Division until after the war.
I have never heard of the bravery of a good brother. If I didn’t have the chance, it would be a good story if seven of your brothers raised their glasses and drank from it above the four springs!”
Support but reinforcements but no reinforcements! It was not until 2 a.m., five hours before the 106th Division captured the Zhanggushan defense line, that the 136th Infantry Brigade retreated to an area of about 3,000 meters at the end of Leiming Gorge.
