Chapter 214 The new mission of the Four Elements Camp
"The adultery is so hot!" Li Jijin sighed to Niu Er.
"Believe it or not, sir, he is so big right now that he can take out a brain axe."
Is there a brain axe? The leg injury has not yet healed. The ‘Hammer’ who habitually lies aside has his ears pricked up and he scans the surroundings vigilantly.
"Don't worry, Hammer. This tiger doesn't eat dogs, it only eats officers." Niu Er stroked Hammer's head to comfort him.
He only eats people! The dog was relieved, and the dog's face, which had just become tense, was relieved.
"Ouch! Your description of your child is so apt, so apt that I even want to tell the Tantai reporter." Li Jijin laughed so hard.
A group of soldiers from the Fourth Battalion who began to gather over laughed.
They are all sensible people. The reporter from Tantai looks beautiful and gentle, but the attributes of a tigress can be clearly seen. Not to mention anything else, just the pen in his hand can turn black into white and white into gray. A certain officer
If you dare to make mistakes somewhere in the future, I'm afraid the starting point will be Chen Shimei.
After Tantai Mingyue finished broadcasting, the sound on the radio did not stop, and a song came melodiously from inside.
However, this time, it was not the soft voice of Tantai Mingyue, but the low singing of several soldiers. There was no accompaniment, just a cappella.
"It was a fine morning,
The dove whistle is accompanied by the wake-up call.
But the world is never peaceful,
There are no peaceful times but there are turbulent storms.
Are you ready, fellow soldiers?
When that day really comes.
Don't worry about the motherland, don't worry about your relatives,
In order to win, I must move forward bravely!
Look at the direction in which the military flag is flying,
Advancing tanks and fleets of aircraft,
Our names are also flying above,
Young soldiers are eager to achieve meritorious service.
Are you ready, fellow soldiers?
When that day really comes..."
This was Tantai Mingyue's request to Tang Dao. Originally, she hoped that Tang Dao would teach her to sing "The Great Wall Will Never Fall Down." However, Tang Dao gave her another surprise, a small one.
The first adaptation of "When That Day Comes" from the future.
In this era, military songs are a necessity for almost every army. After training or during a long march, loud military songs are the simplest and easiest way to boost morale.
Moreover, the melody of the military song is not complicated at all, it just needs to be impassioned. Several soldiers from the guard camp learned it after following Tang Dao two or three times.
There were countless people on the battlefield singing along with the low voice on the radio. The fatigue that once filled their bodies seemed to disappear in the singing, and the speed of building fortifications accelerated again.
However, the soldiers of the Sixing Battalion gathered together quietly under the guidance of the squad leaders and packed up their equipment. After all the personnel arrived, Signal Corps Erya sent Tang Dao's military order and the whole battalion walked to the open space three miles outside the west gate.
The ten trucks they captured from the Japanese were all driven over. There was no shortage of heavy equipment that originally belonged to them. There were also six wheeled single-barreled machine guns and neatly piled in front of the truck.
Cannonball box.
The rather surprised officers and soldiers of the Sihang Battalion quickly lined up and stood in front of the truck. Their battalion commander Tang Dao and two lieutenant generals stood in front of the truck.
The 97 people stood upright with solemn faces.
Although they didn't know what they were gathering for now, they knew that the task that was about to await them was by no means simple.
The six machine guns are not the key point, but the two commanders of the 67th Army and the 43rd Army came together to give a lecture. This standard is really too high.
"Songjiang Frontline Command ordered that the Sixing Battalion and the 43rd Army Military Headquarters directly under the guard company, the 67th Army Military Headquarters directly under the guard company, with Major Lei Xiong, the deputy battalion commander of the Sixing Battalion, as the first commander, stationed at the Baihe Port Bridge, the entire army must not
If the bridge is damaged, anyone who avoids the battle, is afraid of the battle, or retreats will be killed!" Tang Dao took the first step and read out the military order just issued by the headquarters.
"Yes!" Lei Xiong first accepted the order, and then turned his attention to Tang Dao.
There was surprise and doubt in it.
The risk of the Sihang Battalion and two other guard companies stationed at the Baihe Port Bridge dozens of kilometers away was actually no easier than defending Songjiang City. Tang Dao had actually communicated this with him before coming to Songjiang.
The Japanese army may not have too many infantrymen to bypass it, but the biggest danger facing the Baihe Port Bridge is the Japanese fighter planes.
Once Songjiang and the Japanese army fell into a deadly battle, the angry Japanese army would inevitably think of cutting off Songjiang's army's retreat in retaliation, and bombing the Baihe Port Bridge was almost an inevitable choice.
They are laying eggs high in the sky, so what can they do no matter how brave they are on the ground?
However, these so-called dangers are nothing, but Tang Dao does not serve as the first commander? Obviously he will not leave with them this time, which makes Lei Xiong a little uncomfortable.
Yes, no matter whether these elites who once belonged to the Royal Forest Army admit it or not, after a week of continuous fighting, Tang Dao has completely become their backbone and support. When they first heard that Tang Dao would not follow them, even someone as strong as Lei Xiong suddenly
I felt a little unsure.
If there weren't two other big guys here, he would probably have asked directly.
"Because Battalion Commander Tang also serves as the deputy director of the staff department, he must stay in Songjiang to follow orders." Lieutenant General Wu directly answered the questions of the officers and soldiers of the Sixing Battalion.
"I know that some of you may think that I, Mr. Wu, and Commander Guo have not used the good steel of your Sixing Battalion on the blade. That is because you don't know that you are guarding the last lifeline of our Songjiang City army.
This time, the military order issued by our entire army in Songjiang is that starting from the arrival of the Japanese invaders tomorrow, our entire army in Songjiang frontline must resist the Japanese invaders for three days and nights, and buy time for the entire army in western Shanghai to withdraw to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang defense lines.
If the bridge is lost, the more than 30,000 Chinese heroes on the Songjiang front will have no way to retreat!" Lieutenant General Wu's face was solemn, his eyes were slightly open, and his voice was slightly hoarse.
"So, I must ask you to guard the bridge! The lives of more than 30,000 soldiers on the Songjiang front will be at your hands."
"On behalf of the entire Si Xing Battalion, I promise to complete the mission! Unless the entire army is united, we will not let you down." Lei Xiong took a step forward and raised his hands in salute. "Everyone, salute!"
"Okay!" The lieutenant general raised his hand in return.
Lieutenant General Guo and Tang Dao also raised their hands to return the salute.
Everyone was waiting to file into the car.
The Guard Company of the 67th Army has been stationed at the Baihe Port Bridge for a long time, and the Guard Company of the 43rd Army is the two platoons left behind to guard the 43rd Army's station. Signal Corpsman Erya has already quietly told Lei Xiong about this.
This also means that the people responsible for defending the Baihe Port Bridge are about 300 troops, which is much more difficult than the 30,000 troops of the 67th Army facing the 100,000 Japanese troops defending Songjiang City.
But that should be the maximum amount of troops the two lieutenant generals can bring to bear at this moment.
It's not because there are not enough troops, but because there is a way to retreat, but the morale of the army must not be shaken. Needless to say, Tang Dao believes that Lei Xiong can understand this.
The only thing that reassured Lei Xiong was that his equipment had been further strengthened. Although Songjiang was about to face a tough and deadly battle, Lieutenant General Wu still 'squeezed' six Oerlikon single-barreled machine guns and handed them to him.
This single-barreled 20mm machine gun produced by the little-known Oerlikon company in Switzerland is not as good as the famous Soloton twin-mounted machine gun. To put it bluntly, it is a large 'machine gun', but this kind of shooting
A machine gun with a speed of up to 300 rounds per minute actually has better performance in upward-firing air defense.
It is actually perfect to have this kind of "small cannon" for air defense.
Many people may be surprised that an army suppressed by high-level officials still has so much "high-precision" equipment. That may be because they don't know enough about the Northeastern Army.
Ignoring the quality and combat effectiveness of its soldiers, and considering its equipment alone, the Northeast Army may be second only to the German weapons division and finishing division created by a certain big boss who pooled the country's financial resources.
Because Lao Zhang, who has ruled the Northeast for a long time, may be China's number one 'farmer' during the warlord war period. Under his careful management, the Northeast not only has China's largest Fengtian arsenal, but also has the highest quality iron ore in China at that time.
, coal mines and the most complete heavy industry, with money, resources and technology, it is strange that the Northeast Army’s equipment is poor.
During the September 18th Incident, hundreds of thousands of Northeastern troops withdrew to the pass without resisting, and nearly 300 aircraft were left in Fengtian City.
With this equipment but no intention of resisting, it would be strange if the young marshal and the entire Northeast Army were not scolded as dogs by the whole country.
So, the handsome guy Zhang, who had been scolded by people all over the country for several years and was almost depressed, as the Japanese became more and more aggressive, he simply gritted his teeth and tied up the leading brother, showing to the people of the country that I actually wanted to fight the war. You see
I'm ready to kill my family out of righteousness.
Handsome guy Zhang was really not playing tricks at that time. As long as the leading brother dared to be stubborn, his life was probably in danger.
The whole Chinese people were dumbfounded. The troops in the north clapped their hands and persuaded them that peace was the most important thing and virtue should be used to persuade others. As long as they hit the Japanese, it would be easy.
The leadership is so aggrieved. Who in the Northeast Army is not angry? The Japanese are coming again. They finally have a chance to clear their name. Now they go to the front line and they have to empty all their money!
Not to mention this single-barreled machine gun imported in the early 1930s, the two infantry divisions under the 67th Army have mountain artillery battalions and heavy mortar battalions. Each mountain artillery battalion has 12 75mm mountain cannons and a heavy mortar battalion.
It has 12 150mm heavy mortars, and directly under the military headquarters is a mountain artillery battalion of equal strength, a field artillery battalion with 12 75mm field guns, and an air defense battalion with 18 20mm machine guns.
In terms of various types of artillery, the 48 mountain guns, field guns and 24 large-caliber mortars are by no means inferior to a standing division of the Japanese army.
Of course, having said that, the incoming Japanese army was not one division but as many as three or more. Especially since the Japanese army was supported by a dedicated heavy artillery brigade, its strength was naturally far superior to that of the 67th Army.
To say that the equipment of the 67th Army is awesome is just to compare with other domestic armies. For example, the 43rd Army is so miserable. The poor "beggar army" has never even seen a mountain artillery.
Without the two infantry cannons, three rapid-fire cannons and ten Type 92 heavy machine guns brought by Tang Dao as supplements, Lieutenant General Wu would be reluctant to hand over one-third of the machine guns of his air defense battalion directly under the military headquarters to Lei Xiong
Or two other things.
Although the escape route is important, we must first have a chance to leave Songjiang alive, right?
