Chapter 433
Under Ma Liang and You Yong's leadership, the officers and soldiers of the 45th Division were possessed by evil spirits, following the Japanese army's butts.
Although the Japanese army was brave and good at fighting, the tragic situation of their companions before their death in the mine formation shocked every Japanese soldier and lost their aura. When they saw the commander taking the lead in escaping, they also rushed to the bottom of the mountain, hoping to grow two legs.
The submachine guns in the hands of the officers and soldiers of the New Second Army were too greedy for bullets, and the magazines were quickly emptied, so they had to stop and change the magazines. Without the submachine guns to suppress the formation, the several light machine guns of the 45th Division seemed a little weak. Fortunately, the officers and soldiers who were stimulated were no longer timid and concessions. The increasingly dense rifle shooting sound filled the gap left by the submachine gun.
Major Datian ran towards the starting position at the foot of Banqiao Mountain in a mess, and the Japanese soldiers behind him were also frightened and stumbled and failed to form a army.
Saburo Fujiyama, who was about to push the entire regiment, saw this scene and could hardly believe his eyes. He wiped his eyes hard, then picked up the telescope and observed it carefully, and could clearly see the helpless, frustrated and fearful expression on the faces of the escaped Japanese soldiers.
"Bageya Road"
Fujiyama Saburo's teeth were about to be broken. When did the Imperial Japanese Army become so panicked and incompetent? He threw down his telescope, pulled out his saber, stared at the eyes of a cow, and turned around and shouted at the mortar squadron not far away: "Fire the cannon, cover the Chinese army and shell the fire quickly."
The artillery squadron leader felt bitter when he heard this.
Saburo Fujiyama had just ordered the mortar position to move forward. Now he has only walked less than two hundred meters away and is about to fire again. Even the distance, orientation and other shooting elements have not been calibrated. How can he get what he wants for a while?
The Japanese artillery was busy and could not provide direct help to the Japanese army. Instead, the two Japanese planes hovering in the air observed the latest changes in the ground, dived from the air left and right, and rushed towards the Kuomintang officers and soldiers who were pursuing after recovering their positions.
Seeing the Japanese fighter jet roaring down, Ma Liang and You Yong looked at each other, made a decision at the same time, and shouted loudly to the left and right:
"Retreat, hurry up... the Japanese plane is here"
After retreating, the officers and soldiers of the regiment were stunned for a moment, and returned to their previous appearances of defeated soldiers. They turned around quickly and ran away much faster than the speed of chasing, which stunned Ma Liang and You Yong.
The group retreated thoroughly and retracted back to its previous position after a while.
After the Japanese planes shot and dropped bombs, Ma Liang immediately suggested to You Yong that only a small number of troops were left on the front line, and the remaining officers and soldiers retreated to the third line of defense halfway up the mountain. The officers and soldiers made every effort to deepen and strengthen the trenches, and make full use of the three caves behind the position as anti-aircraft artillery holes.
When the Japanese army was bombarded, officers and soldiers could hide in caves and wait for the Japanese infantry to launch an attack. The officers and soldiers quickly entered the front line of positions through the traffic trench, and retreated again when the battle ended to conduct elastic defense.
When You Yong heard that it was very reasonable, he immediately ordered the Second Battalion and the Third Battalion to retreat. The First Battalion left a company on the first line position, and the rest retreated into the second line position.
In order to prevent the front-line officers and soldiers from defeating again without fighting, You Yong presided over the implementation of military law against Lieutenant Lin Zhi, deputy company commander of the first battalion, who fled first. Lin Zhi called for his wrongful accusation, but no one paid attention to it. He fell down unwillingly amid the sound of "slap" gunshots, effectively shocking the entire regiment of officers and soldiers.
You Yong ordered the platoon leader of the company to serve as the company commander, and then led his troops to withdraw to the third-line position and began to seize the time to build a defensive position.
The Japanese army started the position at the foot of Banqiao Mountain.
The exhausted Japanese army lay all over the ground, and many injured Japanese devils had time to check the wounds at this time. They howled and moaned in pain, which made the Japanese army depressed their morale. The Datian brigade was still full when he went out, and he was half missing when he came back. The commander of the regiment was so angry that he was so angry that he picked up the clothes of the Datian brigade and was angry fiercely.
"Baga is a huge shame. You threw so many imperial officers and soldiers on the battlefield and you actually have the face to come back? You can have a cesarean section now and apologize."
Just now, when Major Datian ran away, he fell a dog to bite the shit, and his two front teeth were knocked off by stones. Seeing that the team leader was angry, he quickly spit out the mud and sand in his mouth, and reported it with a leaking air:
"The corps leader, the Chinese are so cunning. They buried mines on the way to escape. We were unfortunately ambushed. They had a terrible landmine. After the explosion, they splashed terrible flames. This flame was attached to the human body and could not be extinguished. Many of our officers and soldiers were burned to death, and the morale of the army was in chaos."
"In addition, the Chinese people's counterattack was very fierce. The submachine guns and light machine guns combined were 30 or 40. The opponents were condescending. We had no cover and could only be exposed to the opponent's gun. I made a quick decision to retreat, so I was not surrounded by the Chinese army, avoiding the fate of being wiped out, and preserving the main force of the brigade. Therefore, I was not only innocent, but also made contributions."
"Ba"
Saburo Fujiyama directly slapped Master Ota in the face and shouted sternly: "You have lost the battle and are still sarcastic. You are not worthy of being the Emperor's samurai at all."
"Hai, I failed and I was willing to give birth to my caesarean section to thank His Majesty, but the Chinese army opposite this time is really very different from before. Please pay more attention to the corps leader."
Major Datian bowed with a sincere attitude.
"Bageya Road——"
Saburo Fujiyama wanted to continue slapping Datian in the face, but he heard the stern voice of the gang leader Major General Ueno Kamefu: "Tengyama, stop."
When they came to the two, Ueno Kamefu ignored Saburo Fujiyama's face and carefully asked Master Ota about the entire battle process.
Major Ota is a top student who graduated from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned School and Army University. When he saw the corps leader asking about it personally, he was sure of his heart. He immediately told his personal experience and finally made his own judgment: "Genius General, I think that although the Chinese army opposite is still the previous unit, the commander has been replaced. By the way, there is another thing..." Major Ota slapped his thigh and remembered something: "This time, the first to launch a counterattack against our unit were more than a dozen soldiers wearing Central Army uniforms. They all held Thomson submachine guns and had extremely fierce firepower.
"I have never heard of the 45th Division opposite that is equipped with submachine guns..." Saburo Fujiyama interrupted.
"It must be from the New Second Division... No, it should be called the New Second Army now."
Ueno Guifu's face became a little ugly. Facing Wu Ming, who was mobile, flexible and changeable, Ueno Guifu, who had contact with the New Second Division in Jiaxing, Nanxun and Wuxing, felt a sense of powerlessness.
Major General Ueno nodded to Major Ota to show his praise. Then he looked from the direction of Lin'an to the west and said secretly, why are there such difficult monsters as Wu Ming and the New Second Army in the Chinese army?
Wu Ming didn't know that someone was muttering him, holding Ma Liang's telegram to report his victory in his hand, with a blank expression on his face
Long Shaogang frowned: "Military throne, Ma Liang directly shot the 1st battalion commander of the 45th Division, and that battalion commander was Dai Minquan's cousin, this..."
"Old Long, don't worry too much. Anyway, that guy is dead now. We can only wish him to be reincarnated into a good family in the next life, and be a carefree young man for the rest of his life. Never go to the battlefield, otherwise he will be a gun." Wu Ming did not react much, but instead said jokingly.
"But... where is Dai Minquan?"
Long Shaogang could completely imagine Dai Minquan's angry look, and said a little worriedly.
"It's okay... How much influence do you think a concubine's nephew can have? If Dai Minquan has any dissatisfaction, he can come to me directly. The battlefield military law is like a mountain, and even if I see the escapee at the battle, I will order it to be shot directly." Wu Ming was very determined, and after thinking about it, he said:
"There are only two choices in war, whether to live or die, either kill the enemy or be killed... If you ask Lu Dazhong and Dai Minquan to talk about it carefully, I think Dai Minquan will understand."
Long Shaogang asked again: "Military, since Ma Liang is not guilty, should he remember the contributions he made?"
Wu Ming said naturally: "If you have merits, you will not be rewarded, and if you have mistakes, you will not be punished. That is a manifestation of the collapse of military discipline and give Ma Liang a third-class merit once. You will be rewarded after returning to Mao Liangwu."
"But... if Dai Minquan knew about it, he might jump and scold him." Long Shaogang shook his head: "Besides, we are preparing to poach people from all departments on the front line. If the relationship is really broken, it will be detrimental to the military advisers we sent out to take action."
"This must be ignored"
Wu Ming pondered for a moment and changed his mind: "Since that's the case, then I'll give Ma Liang a merit and give him another punishment, ordering him to apologize to Dai Minquan, and the gift will be sent from the military headquarters... and 100 Type 38 rifles of the 45th Division... Do you think this way of handling it?"
"It's a chaotic world now, and one hundred rifles are worth 18,000, which should be feasible." Long Shaogang nodded in agreement, then took out a telegram and handed it to Wu Ming: "Military Captain, Ma Liang called and said that the deputy commander of the First Regiment You Yong is a tiger general, and he has a good impression of our New Second Army. Ma Liang takes him back when he is ready to leave."
Wu Ming carefully read the telegram sent by Ma Liang.
In just half a day, Ma Liang had roughly figured out the situation of the 1st Regiment of the 45th Division, and privately released the list worthy of winning the New Second Army. He also commented on the person's personality and expertise after the name. Such meticulous work made Wu Ming very happy.
Wu Ming directly put down the telegram and said to Long Shaogang: "Since Ma Liang has selected the target, let him act according to the scheduled plan."
Long Shaogang nodded and agreed.
At this time, Zhang Dongning walked into the ward with a tired look on his face and said to Wu Ming with concern: "Military captain, Chairman Huang and Director Xuan are here to visit together and ask for your name to see you."
Wu Ming was a little strange when he heard it.
Since the Second Division of the New Division escorted the people who moved west to Lin'an safely, the provincial government paid 2 million oceans. Huang Shao and Xuan Tiewu looked at the money tightly like an iron rooster. How could he have time to come to see him?
After thinking about it, Wu Ming suddenly laughed.
Long Shaogang and Zhang Dongning looked at each other, and Zhang Dongning asked, "Military, why are you laughing?"
"Of course I have to laugh. This time I guess Huang Shao and Xuan Tiewu came together to send us money," Wu Ming said mysteriously.
"Send money?"
