Chapter 229 Extremely shocked

Author: Awkwardness

Mu Chuanzi began to think carefully, and he also agreed with the words of the captain of the Sixth Infantry Brigade.

The New Fourth Army has always been behind in weapons and equipment, and it is not even comparable to the Eighth Route Army before it became famous. The Eighth Route Army can still gain the reputation of a three-shot Eighth Route Army. The New Fourth Army cannot gain the reputation of a three-shot New Fourth Army.

Mu Chuan said in his pants: "Okay! Since you both are considering changing the direction of the attack, I agree.

Tonight, the Fourth Infantry Squadron of the Fourth Infantry Squadron of the First Infantry Battalion attacked the Seventh Division of the Huaiyin Military Region of the New Fourth Army from the hillside on the west side of Mangdang Mountain, the Second Infantry Squadron of the Sixth Infantry Battalion attacked the Seventh Division of the Huaiyin Military Region of the New Fourth Army from the east side of Mangdang Mountain. At night, the Fourth Infantry Squadron of the Fourth Infantry Squadron of the Sixth Infantry Battalion attacked the Seventh Division of the Huaiyin Military Region of the New Fourth Army from the hillside on the south side of Mangdang Mountain.

As for the hillside on the north side of Mangdang Mountain, we will give up directly. I won’t say much about other unnecessary words. This time we must do our best to capture the entire New Fourth Army in Mangdang Mountain in one place.”

"Hi!" X2

Three o'clock in the morning.

The six infantry squadrons of the Japanese quietly approached the Mangdang Mountain Natural Forest Mining Cave from three directions, east and south of Mangdang Mountain.

Time is 3:30 in the morning! The Japanese devils have arrived at the halfway up the Mangdang Mountain, not far from the Mangdang Mountain Natural Forest Mining Cave.

Just as the Japanese devils were preparing to completely take over the seventh division of the Huaiyin Military Region, the natural forest mine cave in Mangdang Mountain.

The first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth battalions that had been ambushing the seventh district halfway were firing frantically at the Japanese who entered their shooting range.

Gunshots rang out in the three directions east and south of Mangdang Mountain at the same time, only the north side of Mangdang Mountain was peaceful.

Zhao Xin set up several observation posts not far from the foot of the mountain in Mandangshan. No matter which direction he wanted to attack, he could not escape the observation of the New Fourth Army observation post.

When the Japanese army began to climb Mangdang Mountain, Zhao Xin had already received the news.

Originally, there were only one battalion, two battalion, and three battalion in the east and south directions of Mangdang Mountain. When Zhao Xin learned that the Japanese wanted to attack Mangdang Mountain at night, he directly sent the Fourth Battalion, Fifth Battalion, and Sixth Battalion to strengthen the defense in the east and south directions of Mangdang Mountain.

At the same time, Zhao Xin strengthened his defense in the north of Mangdang Mountain. Only the Eighth Battalion was responsible for defending the north of Mangdang Mountain. Later, the Ninth Battalion was also transferred to the defensive front in the north of Mangdang Mountain.

The 7th Battalion of the 7th Division of the Huaiyin Military Region of the New Fourth Army stayed around the combat command center. First, it was responsible for the defense work of the combat command center, and second, it was able to support the four directions of Mangdangshan at any time as a reserve team.

Zhao Xin had already exchanged flares from the system. When the Japanese began to attack wildly, the soldiers on the front line had already poured out the flares and were preparing to attack Mangdang Mountain. All the Japanese devils were exposed to the vision of the New Fourth Army soldiers. Because the defense location of the New Fourth Army was dark, and they had already dug up the defensive trenches, the Japanese devils who were preparing to attack Malatang became their living targets.

A crazy bombing and shooting! More than 1,100 Japanese devils lost more than 600 heads. The Japanese devils who knew they had fallen into the new four-star circle ordered a retreat one after another. When the Japanese devils retreated, more than 300 Japanese devils remained on the hillside of Mangdang Mountain, and only 138 Japanese devils left after fleeing back.

The Japanese devils left their troops at the garrison with only one squadron and 121 people, and all the Japanese devils retreated to their garrison. Only 259 people were left in one place with two devils merged.

Muchuan looked at the fact that there were only more than 200 people left under his pants, and the light and heavy firepower was basically gone. He did not dare to continue staying in Mangdang Mountain for a long time, and directly retreated towards Mangdang Town with the remaining troops.

The Japanese devils retreated shortly! Zhao Xin naturally received news, but he did not lead his troops to pursue the Japanese devils.

The seventh division of the Huaiyin Military Region of the New Fourth Army was established too short, and the training time for the new recruits under their hands was too short, so there was no big problem for them to defend Mangdang Mountain, which had complete defensive fortifications. However, if they were to take the initiative to pursue the Japanese devils, a little carelessness would cause great casualties. Zhao Xin naturally would not put the soldiers under his hands in danger for the sake of more than 200 Japanese devils.

It’s time to 7:30!

Three and a half hours have passed since the battle ended. The battalion commanders of each battalion in the seventh district have counted the casualties of his own battalion. At the same time, everyone came to the combat command center where Zhao Xin was located.

Zhao Xin looked at the Ninth Battalion Commander, and the Ninth Battalion Commander understood immediately. He said respectfully to Zhao Xin: "Report to Commander! Our Seventh Division and two Japanese brigades fought fiercely in Mangdang Mountain for a day and night. Our army killed 1,672 Japanese devils, 32 of our army killed 1,217 incomplete weapons, 38 large-scale rifles, 15 heavy machine guns, 38 light machine guns, 12 grenade launchers, and four mortars. If there are several bullets, several damaged weapons, and several other military supplies."

Many combat commanders had known this record long ago, but they still took a breath when they heard Fang Yuan’s report.

In the past, when the New Fourth Army fought with the Japanese army, it was enough to fight a 1:1 battle loss ratio with the Japanese army, which was enough to make them proud in the entire New Fourth Army. Now they directly fought a 50:1 battle loss ratio. If they had not participated in this battle personally, and they also participated in the post-war statistics of this battle, they would not have believed that there was such an exaggerated battle loss ratio.

Many commanders and soldiers admired Zhao Xin even more. In the past, they might have been dissatisfied at all, but now that the battle has completely ended, the remaining little dissatisfied in their hearts has completely disappeared.

Zhao Xin said seriously: "This battle was good! It not only brought out the majesty of our New Fourth Army, but also the majesty of our New Fourth Army's Huaiyin Military Region Seventh Division.

You didn’t lose my face. This battle was the first battle I entered the Jianghuai area to command. I am personally quite satisfied with it. I wonder if you are satisfied with this battle?"

Everyone said in unison: "Satisfied!"

"Just be satisfied!" Zhao Xin continued: "This battle was indeed good, but this is just the first step of our Long March, and it is also the first step for us to restore the Jianghuai region and the AH region. I hope you are not proud and complacent, and can continue to work modestly and work hard to achieve the goals I set for you as soon as possible.

This time we defeated the Japanese devils' attack. The Japanese devils will never attack us again within half a month. We have at least half a month to train and recruit new recruits. I set a goal here, that is, in half a month, we must expand the army to 3,000. Veterans who have seen blood must be trained into elite soldiers. New recruits who have not seen blood must also be trained to be combat-ready New Fourth Army soldiers.

To accomplish this goal I have arranged, each of you must recruit more than 230 recruits. Do you have the confidence to complete the task I arranged for you?”

Fang Yuan, the commander of the Ninth Battalion, took the lead and said: "I have no problem! I will recruit less than 230 new recruits in half a month, and I will let the commander punish you."

"Me too!"

“I have no problem either.”

…………

Many battalion commanders expressed their attitudes one after another, and they were also full of confidence.

The conditions for recruiting troops in the seventh section of the Huaiyin Military Region of the New Fourth Army are very superior. This battle in Mangdang Mountain will make them famous throughout the Huaiyin region and even the entire Jianghuai region. In this case, they still cannot complete the task, which only means that they are too useless. No New Fourth Army commander and fighter think they are useless.

Fang Yuan asked Zhao Xin: "Does the recruits we recruit use the captured 38 caps, or do you want to get us new semi-automatic rifles and fully automatic rifles?"

"All the weapons and equipment seized this time are transported to the headquarters of Huaiyin Military Region and handed over to our Jianghuai Military Region for distribution."

Zhao Xin said: "As for the weapons used by the soldiers under your command and newly recruited soldiers, I will prepare for you. At that time, more than 50% of people will use fully automatic rifles, and more than 50% of people will use semi-automatic rifles. As for which soldiers use fully automatic rifles and which soldiers use semi-automatic rifles, you battalion commanders will be responsible for the arrangement. I will not care about these matters. What I need is that you train me to scream."

Zhao Xin can afford it if all the soldiers under his command use fully automatic rifles, but he will not do so, because all the soldiers under his command use fully automatic rifles to consume too much ammunition. Some people use semi-automatic rifles to reduce the consumption of ammunition and can also adapt to more battlefield environments. Secondly, the soldiers of the Seventh Division of the Huaiyin Military Region of the New Fourth Army have a sense of competition, so that they can work harder and harder when training.

"Long live the commander!"

"Long live the commander!"

Many commanders and soldiers were very happy and shouted long live.

In the past, when they commanded their troops to fight, the biggest pain was that the soldiers under their hands were not equipped enough weapons and equipment, and the soldiers under their hands were not equipped with ammunition enough.

Now their new commander can not only get them stronger weapons and equipment, but also get them a lot of ammunition. How could this not make them excited?

Zhao Xin suppressed his hand and said seriously and seriously: "Our New Fourth Army is a party unit. We can only say long live our Red Party or long live the New Fourth Army. The only one who can call us long live is our leader. Who will let me hear me call me long live in the future? Be careful that I will wear small shoes for him."

In Zhao Xin's opinion, he had just contributed insignificant strength, and he had no qualifications to receive such praise.

Fang Yuan said: "Commander! I know all of what you said. But your contribution is unprecedented. We are willing to call you Long Live the ones. We think you can deserve such a title."

"yes!"

"That's right."

...

"Don't talk nonsense to me!" Zhao Xin said: "Let the correspondent report immediately to the seventh division of our Huaiyin Military Region. Then our commander-in-chief and the head of the headquarters know about this battle in our seventh division.

After this battle, the Japanese devils will inevitably pay attention to our New Fourth Army and even begin to target our New Fourth Army. If the commander-in-chief and the head of the headquarters do not get news, which leads to retaliation from our friendly forces, it will be our negligence."

Finished the battle summary.

Zhao Xin left behind the person in charge of combat readiness duty, so he went back to his bedroom to go to bed, and other commanders and soldiers also went back to his bedroom to go to bed.

After a day and night of fighting, they also need to be trimmed.

The combat information of the seventh division of the Huaiyin Military Region was transmitted to the Huaiyin Military Region.

Before Commander Liu and Political Commissar Zhao finished their breakfast, they arrived at the combat command hall directly and called all the combat commanders of the Huaiyin Military Region Command over.

The combat report of the 7th Division of the Huaiyin Military Region was announced to all the combat commanders. The numerous combat commanders of the Huaiyin Military Region finally understood why Zhao Xin was able to stir up trouble in the Shanxi region, and at the same time he also got the name of the King of Hell given to him by the Japanese devils.

All the combat commanders present were shocked by the information sent by Zhao Xin, but none of them thought it was false information.

After everyone was happy, Commander Liu and his team began to discuss how to deal with the Japanese's revenge. If the Japanese want to retaliate against Zhao Xin from the Seventh Division of the Jianghuai Military Region, they must have prepared for a while and mobilized enough troops to be able to respond to Zhao Xin. They can deal with the Eighth Route Army of other small troops. They only need to send a brigade or a squadron to play a good role.

The Japanese devils wanted to revenge on the New Fourth Army, and they were more likely to revenge on the troops near the Seventh Division of the Huaiyin Military Region.

Commander Liu naturally wanted to make arrangements for the troops under his opponents early. If he didn't even have this software, he would naturally be ineligible to be the commander-in-chief of the Huaiyin Military Region.

Shortly after the Huaiyin Military Region received the news, the New Fourth Army Headquarters also received the news.

Commander Chen was very happy when he learned about the record of the 7th Division of the Huaiyin Military Region. He originally thought that Zhao Xin had arrived in the Huaiyin region and would definitely take some development to truly cause something in the Jianghuai region. If he wanted to achieve the situation in the Shanxi region, it would definitely take a very long time to accumulate.

But Zhao Xin had only been to Huaiyin area for a few days and had already done such a big thing. If he was given another month or two, wouldn’t Zhao Xin completely recover the entire Huaiyin area?

Commander Chen was not very sure that Zhao Xin could recover the entire Jianghuai region in half a year, but with this battle report, he believed that since Zhao Xin said such words, it would not be a big problem for Zhao Xin to do so.

Next, he will also accelerate the construction and development of the New Fourth Army, strive to help Zhao Xin when he was reviving the Huaiyin area, and play a decisive role in reviving the entire Jianghuai area.
