A seven-foot tall man wearing Japanese military trousers and a naked upper body, exuding a strong smell of blood, grinned at three stunned Chinese soldiers in the trench, showing his white teeth.
Like a wolf that successfully hunts and invites its companions to eat!
"You're good!" The big man pointed at Shi Dakuan, who was still holding a shell gun with one hand hanging down, and said with a smile. "Although my Sichuan accent is strong, my hometown dialect is proficient, and five Japanese soldiers were slaughtered by me, I have already convinced you that I am a Chinese soldier.
, but you little guy still did not turn off the gun safety to prevent new accidents, unlike the two of them, who heard that I was Tang Dao and were so impressed by my mere reputation that they took the initiative to turn off the safety.
On the battlefield, you must be alert to all dangers, so just go for this, it’s not in vain for me to accompany you, a little sergeant, to fight, see you later!”
"By the way, let me go back and tell you, Captain Lu, that among the reported military exploits, I, Tang Dao, have 9 military exploits against the Japanese invaders, and the killing of two Japanese invaders was done by my subordinates. It belongs to the three of you, but there are only 3 of them.
, there is one more person that you wounded and I killed, it is a joint meritorious service between you and me, so we can divide him in half." Before climbing down the trench and hiding in the bushes, the big man grinned at Shi Dakuan and said another sentence.
That was the first time Shi Dakuan saw the rumored Tang Tuanzuo!
Obviously, this big man who looked like a ferocious beast was different from the legendary Tang Tuanzuo who commanded Ruoding and used his troops like a god, but the impression he left was one that Shi Dakuan would never forget.
Because it's really too cruel.
After searching, a total of 15 Japanese corpses were left on the high ground. Except for 6 Japanese soldiers with grenade shrapnel injuries and gunshot wounds, there were 9 Japanese soldiers who all died from cold weapons or bare hands.
The worst among them was the four Japanese soldiers on the second-line position of the Japanese army, two riflemen, a machine gunner and a grenade launcher. All the vertebrae in their necks were broken, and their heads were twisted at an angle of more than 150 degrees.
The only explanation is that someone quietly touched him in the fighting position and twisted his spine with a force that could overturn a bull.
A corpse of a Japanese soldier who was stripped of his military uniform and abandoned far away proved why Tang Tuanzuo was wearing Japanese military trousers and cowhide boots. Apparently, after he killed the wounded Japanese soldier, he crawled on the spot disguised as a Japanese wounded soldier.
When the Japanese soldier came forward to check anxiously, he jumped up and killed him. He was only ten meters away and the Japanese soldier only had time to fire two shots, but he blocked them with the body of the Japanese soldier he killed first, and then killed him with two shots.
Two capable Japanese infantrymen.
After hearing Shi Dakuan describe the situation on the battlefield and conveying Tang Dao's explanation before leaving, the army colonel who was originally furious and wanted Shi Dakuan and the others to be put into solitary confinement showed a wry smile on his face.
As the leader of a regiment, or even the supreme commander of the entire Beidou Mountain encirclement, would Tang Dao show his majesty by going to this inconsequential small battlefield on the flank of the Japanese army for no reason?
This is to express his dissatisfaction to the commander surnamed Hu! The 11th Division and the 18th Division already have a lot of military merits. Tang Dao doesn't care if he sends the 31st Regiment with little combat effectiveness to share the military merits, but you can't forget to dig wells when you need water.
Not a human being?
He, a small army colonel, is not qualified to report military merits, but you, the dignified No. 2 figure in the 18th Army, are! Whether the superiors approve or not is their business, but whether to report or not is your business.
Tang Daoyong took only two officers deep into the besieged Japanese position and went on a killing spree with his super military skills to tell the top brass of the 18th Army that now he was very unhappy, extremely unhappy.
Thinking about it deeper, the Army Colonel's vest was even covered in cold sweat. He could kill the Japanese like this, but what if he wanted to kill someone who had offended him?
Can the layers of guards stop him? The Army Colonel looked around. Although he knew that there were more than 30 guards on duty around his temporary regiment headquarters, he did not feel the slightest sense of security.
He might be able to defend him for a while, but can he defend him for a lifetime against someone with such terrifying individual skills? The answer is obviously no.
To a certain extent, Tang Dao is Chi Guoguo's threat, telling those who want to harm him that they can mess with him, but don't anger him, especially don't cross his bottom line, otherwise, he will really
kill.
His personal danger level is not even worse than that of the entire Four Elements Group.
Because, you can mobilize a large army to encircle a regiment, but if you can't use one division, then ten divisions. But how can you defend against a fierce man who has such excellent martial arts, hot weapon skills, and tactical strategies?
Thinking of this, the Army Colonel shuddered involuntarily. Perhaps, the Tang Dao that showed its fangs to the world for the first time was not just for the 18th Army.
"You go and rest first. Your military exploits will be reported as instructed by Commander Tang." The army colonel waved to Shi Dakuan, who was waiting for training, to get out.
Perhaps, the one who benefited most from this highland night attack battle, which can be recorded as a classic, was Shi Dakuan, a soldier who was promoted by the front line of fire!
Tang Dao's explanation before leaving was just to tell the 31st Regiment that the three soldiers were men with meritorious service, especially Shi Dakuan, who he rated as "good". He had saved this man.
To be able to protect three soldiers in such a rage shows that Tang Dao has not forgotten his identity as a commander.
Of course, even if Tang Dao didn't come forward to act as a guarantee, the army colonel, who didn't have many soldiers under his command, would only confine the three stupid youths for three days at most. After all, the three of them not only sneaked into the Japanese army's positions and killed several Japanese soldiers.
, it was a coincidence that Tang Dao killed all the Japanese invaders on the position. His 31st regiment only paid the price of 1 death and 6 injuries of two guard squads, and occupied the 3119 highland.
Successfully embedded a nail in the Japanese defense line. Now there are 36 officers and soldiers, one heavy machine gun and three light machine guns on that position. The Japanese want to reoccupy it without paying a hundred or two hundred casualties.
Don't even think about it.
And if it is difficult for the Japanese army to maintain this kind of consumption at this time, it can only mean that the Japanese army on the two separated highlands will be completely abandoned. Not only will there be no fire cover on the flanks, but it will also be difficult to obtain supplies.
There is no need for a single soldier, just waiting for ten days and a half, hunger can help to eliminate the stubborn Japanese devils.
"This guy Tang Dao cannot be judged by common sense! It's better to provoke him less!" Commander Luo of the 18th Division looked solemn after reading the telegram report from the Army Colonel.
"Yes! It is said that a man's ultimate dream is to 'wake up to dominate the world and lie drunk on the knees of a beautiful woman'. Power, wealth and beauty are the three magic weapons to attract men. Although we, our generation, have fought bloody battles on the battlefield for our country, we will not hesitate to sacrifice our lives.
, but you and I have to admit, how satisfying it is to command the sword and have all the troops obey the order?
But with Tang Dao, I found that none of these three attracted him at all." The teacher surnamed Hu, who added a piece of firewood to the blazing bonfire, had his face illuminated by the flickering firelight and it was difficult to tell whether it was clear or dark.
"When I tested his military deployment that day, I didn't actually ask him to fight for our left-wing position on the central battlefield of Shipai. He knew very well that if I didn't receive him in the tactical war room, he didn't have to fight at all. Since I chose to meet him there, it was already over.
It was decided that he would guard my flank with his four-pronged group.
But he still chose to show me the power of his Four Elements Group and his own abilities. He may have some reservations, but he still firmly told me that he can do it."
The reflection of the firelight flashed in the eyes of the teacher surnamed Hu, as if two flames were rising in his eyes: "Brother Luo, I don't know if you believe it or not, but in that war room, I felt an extremely strong feeling from Tang Dao.
With confidence, our army will win the battle to defend Shipai!
Because I saw a desire in his eyes, a desire to kill, or to be more precise, a desire to kill the Japanese.
It seemed that for others, this war was a desperate counterattack, but for him, it was just a feast of killing the Japanese.
And the fact is exactly the same. Not counting our other battlefields in Shipai, just in front of the four-line formation, we killed 8,000 Japanese troops. Now we have surrounded two more Japanese troops, with a total strength of 50,000 Japanese troops. That was the original one.
The number of Japanese troops that can be killed in a medium-sized battle.
During the bloody battle in Taierzhuang, Commander Li commanded an army of 600,000 men under his command and spent more than a month dealing with the Japanese invaders. Only then did he find an opportunity to annihilate more than 20,000 Japanese invaders in one fell swoop.
People like him seemed to be sent down by God to deal with the Japanese.
??????????.??????
How can such people not be friends during this national war?"
"However, according to the news from the theater headquarters, that person was a little unhappy with him." Commander Luo pointed to the sky.
"Brother Luo, let me be honest, what would you think if there was a friendly force like the Four Lines Regiment fighting side by side on the battlefield?" The division commander surnamed Hu changed the subject.
"That is naturally welcome. Not only is the Four Elements Group strong, but more importantly, I can trust him with my back, unlike some people who run faster than a rabbit when they see the momentum is wrong.
Come on, I have to be careful not to be betrayed by these bastards." Teacher surnamed Luo answered without hesitation.
"Haha! That's it. The one who doesn't like him doesn't like his fighting style and tough attitude towards Japan, but he doesn't like his social circle. Anyone who lets him socialize is the one who is afraid and defensive.
The faction, but we are different." The teacher surnamed Hu smiled.
"Oh! Got it!" The teacher surnamed Luo nodded slightly. "I am a soldier. On the occasion of the national war, we should do what soldiers should do and go to Teliang to get rid of the damn political differences."
"So the fire that Commander Tang sent out was not directed at you and me. I will truthfully report the battle report to the theater headquarters, so that the taller one can go away from the headache." Commander Hu used a wooden stick to remove from the bonfire.
He took out a sweet potato that had been roasted black and patted the wood ash on it with his hand, a look in his eyes flashing.
"But Commander Tang Da has done this. You and I can't pretend not to see it. I think you and I should go to Beidou Mountain tomorrow. Combat merit evaluation and military rank promotion are not something you and I can decide, but there are other things that can be decided by you and me.
We can still make the decision if needed.”
"That's no problem. The Tenth Army has already sent a lot of supplies to our army under the order of the theater headquarters. You and I will give some of the supplies to the Fourth Army Regiment, lest Tang Dao secretly say that we are not loyal." Luo
The teacher surnamed also picked up a roasted sweet potato with a smile and said with a smile.
"I see, it won't be long before the stubborn little devils who refuse to surrender won't even be able to eat the sweet potatoes."
Teacher surnamed Hu did not answer any more, but ate the sweet potatoes sweetly.
Being able to force the 11th Army of Japan's China Expeditionary Force into this state was truly the most enjoyable battle he had ever fought in the army.
However, these are not pie from the sky, but were obtained through the sacrifice of tens of thousands of Chinese officers and soldiers.
The losses of various departments have been calculated in the past few days. In the third theater alone, 20,000 officers and soldiers were killed and 30,000 injured. As the first main force participating in the war in the third theater, the 18th Army was ordered to garrison Shipai Fortress.
The losses of the army's three infantry divisions accounted for two-thirds of the casualties.
Of course, the Japanese army suffered even more heavy losses. On the battlefield alone, there were more than 10,000 corpses that they had not had time to drag away. According to estimates, their casualties exceeded 50,000. This does not include the fact that there will be no sweet potatoes in the encirclement.
Thousands of Japanese troops were fed.
The wish of two Chinese generals who ate sweet potatoes to wish that the Japanese would not even be able to eat them came true on the fifth day of the Chinese Lunar New Year.
The Japanese troops who were surrounded like iron were already very frugal and wanted to count the rice to put into the pot, but they couldn't bear the lack of rice porridge due to the large number of people. After being surrounded for 8 days, they finally ate up the last grain of rice from the baggage troops.
The 231st Infantry Regiment began to slaughter the pack horses and military horses. The sound of gunshots, accompanied by the neighing of the pack horses, resounded throughout the valley.
"Tsk tsk! The little devil is out of food. Let's see how many soldiers and horses he has to eat." Adong took a bayonet and pried open a can of Japanese beef. "What a pity! When we go to collect the corpses of the Japanese,
, such delicious canned beef is no longer available.”
"You kid, you are not irritating the Japanese, you are purely irritating the brothers. If I remember correctly, this is the second box of cans you have eaten today." Boss Cao, who was smoking at the side, glanced at A Dong and felt annoyed.
said.
That's really a sight, only one-eyed Boss Cao can do it.
"Squad leader, look at what you said, I'm just hungry! The food in the cooking class is not good, so you can't use this to make up for it." A Dong quickly took out two packs of cigarettes and threw them to the soldiers beside him. "Come on, brothers.
Idle time is also idle, smoking."
Adong is now one of the few 'big' families in the Four Lines Group. Ever since he discovered a Japanese army's water collection site, this guy took two people in his class to go around a few kilometers to camp on a mountain peak.
The peak is extremely difficult to climb, but A Dong, a wild boy who grew up in Wangwu Mountain, actually led the two of them to climb the cliff. Not to mention, the peak is 420 meters away from the Japanese army's water point.
Boss Cao borrowed a pair of binoculars to use as a scope, and Adong successfully ambushed two Japanese water-collecting soldiers on that cliff.
It would have been fine if they just shot two people. The Japanese were really not very smart. In order to save their colleagues, they went ahead and killed eight people. In the end, they were all shot down by Adong who was hiding in the cracks of the rocks.
The Japanese army used mortars, infantry guns, and grenade launchers, but to no avail!
Three people shot and killed 10 Japanese soldiers, and the cans alone were rewarded with 20 boxes. As the leader and implementer, Adong received 10 of the boxes, but he was not allowed to have two boxes a day.
However, seeing that "big dog owner" A Dong is so sensible, Boss Cao doesn't care too much about the brat.
"Squad leader, how many days do you think the little devil can last? The cold wind blows in the mountains every day, and it feels like the bones are freezing." A Dong sat down next to Boss Cao and offered him a cigarette.
"Hey, we have a reverse slope position. There are fires every day, and it still feels cold. The little devils don't even dare to light a fire. Doesn't it make it even colder? They are starting to kill horses now, just like you said, how many times
One hundred horses can produce 100,000 kilograms of meat. How can thousands of people survive for another half month if they save food? The key is that as soon as the sun comes out and the weather gets warmer, the meat will smell bad. They will have to dig all over the mountain by late March at the latest.
The wild vegetables are eating grass roots, and I think they can last another week. By Qingming Festival, I will collect the corpse of the dog. Is it an auspicious day?" Boss Cao took a puff of cigarette beautifully.
"Then tell me, will the little devil send someone to rescue them? It's been such a long time, so many nights and dreams!" A Dong couldn't help but look a little bitter when he thought that he would have to stay for at least a month.
"It's okay if they don't come. If they come, they will have to be like these devils and work as savages in the mountains for me." Boss Cao looked at the rising clouds and sea of Wushan with confidence in his eyes.
When Boss Cao went to the regiment headquarters for a meeting, he heard from Tang Dao that the headquarters of the 3rd and 5th war zones had also made up their minds this time. In order to trap these thousands of little Japs to death, they traveled from Songzi to Dangyang and then to Changyang.
In Zigui and other places, more than 180,000 troops were deployed, including 6 main infantry divisions alone.
Whenever Japanese troops come to rescue us, we should open the way for them to come. It is easy to come but extremely difficult to leave.
If the Japanese dare not come, then use siege to force the Japanese troops who are short of food and clothing to surrender.
The surrender of the organized Japanese army was definitely a blow to the Japanese army, but for the Chinese side, it was even more majestic and aspirational than the annihilation of a Japanese army division.
As for not surrendering, the Chinese command has not thought about this possibility, because starving to death is a really cruel way to die.
Perhaps only Tang Dao knows that the Japanese nation has an almost paranoid tenacity, and they will really do some operations that are very contrary to human nature.
However, Tang Dao welcomes their behavior. Only dead Japs are good Japs. He believes that China does not need the formal surrender of the Japanese army to boost morale. He spreads photos of them starving to death throughout China and the world. Then
That's it.
The 231st Infantry Regiment still had hundreds of packhorses to slaughter for meat, but the Needle Valley Detachment, which was surrounded by Sifang Bay, was in dire straits. Most of their packhorses were killed in crazy shelling half a month ago.
The stored meat has already gone bad.
In fact, they have already entered the mode of digging wild vegetables on the first day of Chinese New Year. ()
