Chapter 453 Receiving the Sichuan Army from Teng County
The next day, at dawn, the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army immediately set off, leaving Xuzhou City and heading towards Teng County, because they wanted to take over the defense area on that side and prepare for future Japanese attacks.
When Commander Wang led his 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army to leave the city of Xuzhou, they were still carrying their inferior weapons and equipment, and wearing their thin military uniforms and straw sandals.
But once they left Xuzhou for a period of time, they replaced all the inferior rifles in their hands with Mauser 98 rifles. However, in order not to arouse the thoughts of interested people, they still did not change into German weapons uniforms, but
They still wore their German weapons helmets, but they still wore thin military uniforms and straw sandals.
It wasn't until they almost arrived in Teng County that these Sichuan officers and soldiers began to put on the German weapons' military shoes. However, the German weapons' military uniforms were still not put on. However, the German weapons' mortar groups, light and heavy machine guns and other weapons and equipment were.
They had all been hidden in the oxcarts and horse-drawn carriages in their transport team, and they continued to march in a covert manner, loaded with boxes of wooden boxes.
Of course, the time of taking over Tengxian County was a little different from the original development of events in time and space. It happened in advance because the Battle of Xuzhou had not yet broken out at this time.
The Japanese army has not yet attacked Xuzhou.
At this moment in Teng County,
Many residents, as well as the officers and soldiers of the National Army stationed here, have received information about the troops of the Sichuan Army's 122nd Division coming to fully defend this place.
They also often gather together in twos and threes to discuss.
"I heard that the headquarters has dispatched Sichuan troops to take over the defense here in Teng County. We can also go back to Xuzhou to make corrections and reorganize. What do you think?"
"How else can you see it? I'm so happy! The Xuzhou side is much more lively than this side. You can have everything you want to eat, but that's not the case here. And with such a small force like ours, once we are attacked by the Japanese army,
I’m afraid we won’t be able to stand it here for much longer!”
"That's right! With such a small force like ours, there is no way we can fight against the incoming Japanese troops!"
"But the Japanese troops are still on the other side of the capital! They haven't come to attack us at all!"
"It's hard to say! Now not only has Songhu fallen, but also the capital Nanjing has fallen. I think those Japanese troops are so ambitious and will definitely attack us here in Xuzhou. These Japanese troops are ambitious and want to destroy us.
Losing us has always been their goal!"
"The problem is, haven't you heard that those Sichuan troops are poor troops with inferior weapons and equipment than us? I heard that they even marched wearing straw sandals and thin clothes!"
"I even heard that some Sichuan officers and soldiers were not only dressed in red patches and yellow strips of cloth, but some even wore bed sheets, just like the beggar troops, marching and fighting in straw sandals!"
"There are even officers and soldiers with double smoking guns!"
"So if such troops come to defend Teng County, I think they won't be able to hold on here for long if they encounter a large Japanese army attacking here!"
"These are all things for the future! Anyway, the commander of the fifth war zone personally issued the order to change defenses. Are you going to disobey the order? Moreover, the Japanese army has not attacked here at all. If you don't want to go to Xuzhou, you can still apply to stay in
Here, I won’t stay in such a remote place even if I die!”
"I won't stay here. My wife and daughter are in Xuzhou City. I have wanted to go back for a long time!"
…
As the discussions between the military and civilians in Teng County began, various topics began to be discussed.
In particular, there was the most discussion about the image, combat strength, etc. of the Sichuan Army troops that were about to enter.
The discussion ended only after the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army, led by Commander Wang, entered the city.
The National Army troops who had always looked down on the equipment and uniforms of the soldiers of the Sichuan Army were the first to get excited. They were so happy that they could finally leave Teng County and go back to the bustling and bustling Xuzhou City.
But when changing defense,
These officers and soldiers of the national army also discovered that the officers and soldiers of the 122nd Sichuan Army Division under Commander Wang were not dressed as rumored.
Even though they were not wearing straw sandals, they were not carrying any marching items such as basins, herbs, smoke, sheets, backup straw sandals, and umbrellas on their backs.
Even the rifles in his hands are all Mauser 98 rifles, and he is also wearing a German weapon helmet.
They are simply more sophisticated than the weapons of the national army.
What kind of poor troops are there with poor weapons and equipment?
If the soldiers of the Sichuan Army of the 122nd Division hadn't all changed into German weapons uniforms, they would have shocked the whole audience.
Because the impression given to them by the Sichuan Army troops was that they should be poor troops wearing straw sandals, thin clothing, carrying inferior weapons and equipment, and even many cold weapons.
Instead of elite wealthy troops with sophisticated German weaponry and German armorer uniforms.
Therefore, after the defense change, the officers and soldiers of the National Army who were leaving Teng County were puzzled by where these Sichuan Army troops obtained so many sophisticated German weapons, rifles, helmets, and military shoes.
But they are also eager to leave this remote place in Teng County.
So I didn't think much and hurried towards Xuzhou City.
Some of them are even wondering if something good happened in Xuzhou City, where even the poor Sichuan Army troops can obtain well-distributed German rifles and helmets.
So they were also on the march back to Xuzhou City, discussing enthusiastically whether they would be able to obtain replacement weapons like the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army after they returned.
As a result, the enthusiasm of these officers and soldiers of the national army to rush back to Xuzhou City became more and more intense, and they wanted to do it as soon as possible.
But for the residents of Teng County, a few hours after all the national army troops left,
The Sichuan troops, who all immediately changed into German weapons, equipment and military uniforms, were shocked and dumbfounded.
"Hiss! No way! These Sichuan Army troops, which have better weapons and equipment than the National Army troops, are what they call a ragtag, poor straw-shoe army? Who are you kidding!"
"Yes! I'm not dazzled! Are they really the poor straw-shoe troops we have been discussing this morning? But they don't look like them at all! And their military uniforms and weapons and equipment look so majestic.
Ah! Do they really know that they are our local army?"
"Who knows! I feel that they are more majestic than the Japanese troops. The national army troops we usually see with ordinary weapons and equipment are completely incomparable to them!"
…
After that, the entire residents of Teng County became excited, talking again, and started talking excitedly.
