Chapter 281 The Runaway Security Team (Please subscribe! Please vote!)
To use the mantra of future famous basketball commentator Zhang Lili: This is unreasonable!
Yes, according to normal procedures, even if the Japanese army does not reorganize their forces to attack, they will definitely use this spare time to carry out artillery bombardment, destroying houses and trying to kill and injure enemies hidden in residential buildings.
But this time, they were already gathering troops, but there was no artillery fire, as if they were waiting for something.
Instead of waiting for artillery fire, could it be that they were waiting for planes?
Looking up at the sky, the gloomy sky may rain at any time, but there is no scary buzzing sound.
After looking into the distance for a long time, Tang Dao narrowed his eyes slightly.
Finally, he discovered something unusual.
The Japanese infantry has two trenches, one is located 800 meters behind, which is their main trench, and the other is located 500 meters in front, which is where the infantry will be stationed when the attack on Cangcheng is about to be launched. This makes it easier for them to start the artillery bombardment.
Later, troops can be deployed towards the Cangcheng position more quickly.
But this time, almost no Japanese infantry could be seen in the front-line trenches 500 meters away, and even the regularly deployed sentries seemed to have disappeared.
All this shows that this is an unconventional offensive and defensive battle.
Turning his head suddenly, Tang Dao ordered to the army captain beside him: "Captain Peng, the Japanese army, which has suffered continuous setbacks, may have used unconventional tactics in this attack. You should report this phenomenon to the headquarters immediately and ask the commander-in-chief to send orders to the security group.
, their mission was completed, and the entire army, carrying the wounded, retreated into the city in batches as quickly as possible without disturbing the Japanese army.
At the same time, we ordered our Cangcheng defenders to use sandbags and various types of cotton soaked in water to cover the ventilation holes in the bomb shelter. They were not allowed to go to the surface unless necessary. Additional observation posts were deployed, and each observation post covered their mouths with a wet towel.
nose and try to cover the exposed skin with a moist cloth.”
"Sir, what do you mean?" Peng Chong's pupils shrank suddenly.
Tang Dao's order gave him an ominous premonition.
"Yes, the Japanese infantry has been deploying troops for a while, but there is no conventional artillery fire coverage. The Tenth Army has just got off the transport ship. The ammunition reserves prepared are enough to cope with a battle-level battle. There is no reason to start now.
Saving money can only mean that they are waiting for new types of bombs, such as poison gas bombs." Tang Dao looked into the distance with terrifyingly cold eyes.
"You stupid little devil, if you can't win, you will use these unattractive things." Peng Chong gritted his teeth.
Although Peng Chong has never experienced poison gas bombs, he is definitely not unfamiliar.
An infantry regiment of the 67th Army encountered this on the North China battlefield.
The regiment, which fought to the death under heavy artillery fire, had to evacuate its position after being attacked by Japanese poison gas bombs. In the end, the regiment reduced its strength by 70%. Half of that 70% was due to the raging Japanese poison gas bombs.
.Many of the wounded who had to be evacuated due to inhalation of poisonous gas had ulcerated throats and lungs, and eventually died in field hospitals.
Tang Dao's warning was quickly transmitted to the city via phone.
"Will the Japanese army use poison gas bombs?" Wang Gongyu, the commander of the security group at the headquarters, took a breath. "That is something that is prohibited by the international community. There are also observers from the League of Nations in the Songhu Theater."
Wang Gongyu certainly has his reasons for saying this. At least, on the battlefield for Songhu, the Japanese army did not carry out poison gas bombs on a large scale because of the presence of many German military advisers from the Western concessions and the Chinese army.
However, what Wang Gongyu, who had never been on the battlefield, did not know was that the reason why the Japanese army, which was competing with the Chinese army for control of Songhu, did not use poison gas bombs on a large scale was not because of the presence of those blond and blue-eyed international military observers, but because
After entering autumn, the windy and rainy weather in China's Jiangnan is not suitable for the use of poison gas bombs. When the wind from the East China Sea blows and rain comes, the effect of poison gas bombs will be much smaller.
Those blond and blue-eyed Westerners can watch the Japanese massively increase their troops and fully invade a sovereign country. How can they sanction the Japanese whose military strength is almost comparable to theirs because of a small poison gas bomb?
After all, on the big stage of the international community, what determines your right to speak is not your land area, population, or even wealth, only your fists.
Just like Tianzhu in the future, it has a large land area and the largest population in the world. It dreams of becoming a permanent member of the Security Council, but it is not possible. China, which has become stronger, can only object with a light word, and its more than one billion people can only stare.
Is the negative vote in China’s hands really useful?
Not really.
What will be useful is the power that China will have in the future, which will be enough to destroy the entire earth dozens of times.
The island nation that failed to gamble on its national destiny accumulated dizzying wealth after the war, and even threatened the existence of its master. Therefore, the dog owner promulgated a small economic policy, bursting the economic bubble, and becoming extremely wealthy.
For bubbles.
Whether it is a country or an individual, the destiny can only be controlled by one's own hands and cannot be counted on anyone else.
It's just that at this time, a certain high-ranking person actually pinned the fate of his country and nation on those Western plutocrats who are practicing banditry under the guise of democracy. This is really a very sad thing.
And more importantly, poison gas bombs did not originate from the East.
When it comes to playing this game, Westerners are the originators.
Throughout the First World War, Western generals were like crazy throwing all kinds of special bombs at their opponents, such as the poison arsine, hydrocyanic acid, and mustard gas. There were as many as 40 kinds of bombs that could make people pee just by listening to them.
Remaining species.
In just four years, 120,000 tons of poisons were used on the battlefield, resulting in approximately 1.3 million casualties.
War is not a boxing ring. The so-called conventions and rules are only for the weak who cannot resist. Only state officials are allowed to set fires and the people are not allowed to light lamps. This is the essence of power.
Any soldier who expects his opponent to abide by the rules in a war is ridiculous. The rules themselves are made by the strong ones who actively provoke the war.
Winning the final victory is what human beings who wage war need most. This is a bloody fact throughout the thousands of years of development history of human society.
"When the Japanese massacred our people in Jinshan County, did they ever care about the existence of Western war reporters and military observers?" Lieutenant General Guo asked with a sneer.
Wanggongyu fell silent.
The great commissioner realized that the war he was about to experience was no longer the hail of bullets he imagined, and that both sides would do whatever it took to win.
Wu and Guo were both experienced generals, and they believed in Tang Dao's analysis at the forefront.
The evacuation order was quickly sent to the three battalions of the security group who were still in the ruins by phone.
Although they did not delay the 6 hours stipulated before the war, when the Japanese army used this trump card, there was no point in letting them die there. It was better to come back and serve as a reserve team to defend the city.
"Damn it, the devil's devils are going to release poison gas bombs. Blow the whistle to notify everyone to withdraw to the city." Master Zhuang, who received the call notification from the city, dispersed the souls of the dead. "Also, let's ignore the dead for now, but as long as
If you still have a breath, let me carry it back."
For a moment, the entire residential area was like a pot exploding. After receiving the order to retreat, the security battalion soldiers rushed out of their hiding places in a hurry, some carried the wounded on their backs, and ran towards the city with the wounded.
Don't tell me, these guys may not be able to run very fast if they charge, but their running speed is definitely first-rate.
In almost ten minutes, more than a thousand people rushed back through the specially opened city defense channel.
Lieutenant General Liu Yuqing, the commander of the 26th Division who accompanied Wang Gongyu from the headquarters to greet them, could only say in shock: "Commander Wang, your army is not only heroic in battle, but its retreat speed is really admirable!"
Commissioner Wang's old face turned red when he was teased by the Army Lieutenant General, but he was still happy when he saw the man who had said that he had returned.
You know, the pensions of regular armies such as the 67th Army and the 43rd Army can be obtained from the Ministry of Military Affairs, but the pensions of his Songjiang Security Group have to be borne by the Songjiang local government. When the Japanese come, Songjiang will be gone, and in the end they will not be able to
Wang Gongyu pays for it privately?
If he is cheating, it doesn't matter now, but the battle will eventually be over. Even if he, Wang Gongyu, dies, as long as the families of the soldiers who died in the battle are still alive, they will come to his Wang family sooner or later.
Dare you not give it? You really think that the wealthy gentry can take advantage of the common people! From then on, the reputation of the Wang family in Songjiang and even the entire Jiangnan became bad.
Now that he is back and talking about half of the people, the pension is much less than he expected before. Do you think Lao Wang can be unhappy?
But then again, it was very pleasing to Lao Wang to see him running back like a wolf and a pig, and his subordinates were very pleased with him, but it was these guys who usually didn't get much publicity that gave him a lot of face all day and night.
Are the regular troops who are not looking at the city wall fortifications looking at these security troops with uniforms different from before?
That is respect from the heart.
A tribute to a group of militia soldiers who ran away very fast.
This is almost impossible for a certain regiment of the 67th Army that defends this city wall, but it actually happened.
Because the battle between the security group and the Japanese army in the residential area was almost right in front of their eyes. Except for the soldiers in Tang Dao and Cangcheng positions, they were the ones hiding in the city wall fortifications who could see it most clearly.
If it were them, they wouldn't know if they could do better than these 'quack soldiers'.
The city defenses were still open, and soldiers from the security regiment who received the news later were running towards this side.
Master Zhuang, who was sweating hotly, stood guard at the edge of the fortifications and asked the signal soldiers to count the soldiers in his battalion.
Once it reaches the number 350, it can no longer rise.
"No, where are the crows!" The security battalion commander, with despair in his eyes, shouted to the soldiers hiding in the trenches when no one returned from the retreat.
"I watched that kid run away! He was so damn ahead of me! Where are the others?"
The words were not spoken yet.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The Japanese army fired.
What rose from the residence was not only the smoke after the explosion, but also a huge fireball and a strange light green smoke.
