Chapter 187: The front is tight, the rear is tight
Zhao Keli is the director of the munitions department of the 97th Army, with the rank of colonel, and is also Zhu Huaibing's brother-in-law.
The Munitions Department was originally a lucrative job in the military, and Zhao Keli made a lot of money.
Dongxi Garden was originally a small town, but with the arrival of the 97th Army Military Headquarters and the Administrative Office, there were 2,000 people in agencies and directly affiliated teams at all levels, plus tens of thousands of officers and soldiers stationed nearby, the town suddenly became a
It presents a kind of abnormal wartime prosperity.
At this time, Zhao Keli was hugging each other happily in the Yuquanling brothel, but his face still showed a trace of unhappiness.
"Sir, please be happy. Come on, have a drink!" A woman on the right had her breasts partially exposed, and a white thigh rested on the base of Zhao Keli's thigh, twitching from time to time, which was full of coquettishness.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to drink, Zhao Keli reached into the woman's clothes.
Even though Zhao Keli had been having fun for a long time, he was drunk and said: "Little goblin, let's see how I deal with you later?"
Then he turned to the people at the table and said, "No one can block our way to make money. Let's all have fun today!"
Then he pulled the two women out of the house.
The second floor is a place for drinking wine, and the first floor is a gambling house. Every table is surrounded by officers of all levels from the 97th Army.
Zhao Keli nodded with satisfaction and felt quite proud. Although the military ordered the closure of casinos and brothels, he opened the casino to the front line and business was still booming.
At this time, Dong Jiang was lurking outside Yuquan Ridge with his reconnaissance company.
Two scouts slipped out from Yuquan Ridge and quietly approached Dong Jiang.
"Company Commander, we have figured out the situation. All the residents in the town have fled long ago. Now there are gambling houses, brothels, and opium dens in the town. All the people coming and going are officers of the 97th Army at all levels. The guard force is very weak.
, with the strength of our reconnaissance company, we can catch them all in less than half an hour!" Scout Report reported.
"Well, don't act rashly yet. The guard here has committed a blood debt. The commander has instructed him to bring people here personally tomorrow! You few stay here and watch, while the others follow me to a vacant house in the town to rest!" Dong Jiang said
After greeting the others, they retreated together.
Early on the morning of July 11, 1940.
Each regiment of the independent detachment rushed towards their designated locations, while Zhou Weihan personally led the garrison regiment towards Yuquan Ridge.
By the time Zhou Weihan and his crowd arrived, it was almost noon, and Dong Jiang had been waiting for a long time.
"Commander, no one came out of Yuquan Ridge. On the contrary, many officers of the 97th Army entered Yuquan Ridge one after another! The town's defense is weak!" Dong Jianghui reported.
Zhou Weihan was a little surprised after hearing this. The war was about to begin and he still had time to have fun. However, he was relieved when he thought of the virtues of the national army officers.
The front is tight and the rear is tight.
The most representative one is the famous Battle of Madang Fortress in the Battle of Wuhan.
Madang Fortress is known as the number one fortress in the world, and Chiang Kai-shek had high hopes for it, believing that it could stop the Japanese offensive for at least a month.
But just two weeks before the battle started, Li Yunheng, commander of the 16th Army, not only did not strengthen frontline defenses, but instead established a so-called field school and ordered middle and senior commanders, including Wang Xitao, commander of Madang Fortress, to come and conduct exercises.
It took about two weeks of study. Some officers and soldiers did not understand this, but they could not stop it.
The so-called battlefield military academy established by Li Yunheng took two weeks from the "opening" on June 10 to the "completion" on June 24. Li Yunheng planned to hold a graduation ceremony on the morning of June 24, and specifically requested to participate in the study
All the officers arrived, and a banquet was organized in the evening, and all the officers got very drunk.
As a result, the traitors mixed in the crowd took advantage of the insensitivity of Li Yunheng and others and secretly passed the information to the Japanese fleet that had been cruising on the river for a long time, suggesting that the Japanese could take advantage of the empty Chinese defenses on the 24th to launch a sneak attack.
At this time, only officers from the Second Jiang Defense Corps were stationed, and they were caught off guard by the Japanese army.
...
Zhou Weihan was keenly aware that this was a good fighter opportunity. If he could kill all the enemy officers in Yuquan Ridge, tomorrow's battle would go smoothly.
"Humph, since the 94th Army is so cooperative, then we'll accept it!" Zhou Weihan sneered.
"Master Li, don't you want revenge? Now that the opportunity has come, don't let me escape an enemy on Yuquan Ridge! But the senior officers must be kept, I will be of great use!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Li Da's orders were issued one after another, and the soldiers of the garrison surrounded Yuquan Ridge.
Yuquan Ridge is neither big nor small. Since all the residents in the town have fled, the officer in charge of guarding simply placed soldiers around several brothels and gambling houses that were in operation.
A few scattered enemy soldiers were dozing off, and most of them were resting in civilian houses. Last night, the officers were having fun inside, and the enemy soldiers in charge of the guards were playing with money all night long.
The sun was shining brightly and I felt sleepy.
At first, the soldiers of the garrison carefully searched the town after entering the town, but they didn't even see a single person.
"This damn thing doesn't even have a human figure. If you ask me about my ability, I can just rush up and raise the knife with my hand. It's so exciting. In the past, how many of us had finished drinking and didn't have lunch the next day?
Come on, these people didn't play very late yesterday," said Magnet, who was already the commander of the first battalion of the garrison.
After hearing this, Li Daben slapped his forehead and thought, Damn, I am too careful. I might as well have this iron-headed magnet like a magnet to think clearly.
"Listen to me, and be more agile in your movements. Whether our regiment can become the main force in the future depends on this time. If we don't fight well this time..."
When the magnet saw that Li Da's ink was still stained, he pulled Li Da's hand and said immediately: "Come to me from the first battalion and kill these idiots!"
Magnet took the lead and did not bother to notify the other two battalions.
"Gua, go quickly and inform the two battalions of Zhang Zhiming and Sun Chenghai, don't let the enemy escape from their side!" Li Daben said hurriedly.
An enemy soldier leaning on the room was awakened by the messy footsteps of a battalion. He rubbed his eyes and suddenly woke up. He quickly woke up several enemy soldiers around him: "Don't fucking sleep, there is a situation!"
"I'm trapped right now! What could happen?"
In the blink of an eye, Magnet rushed up with a battalion of soldiers, stabbing the enemy soldiers with their shining bayonets into the bodies of the enemy soldiers who had not yet reacted.
The soldiers who had no chance to take action rushed into several surrounding houses.
"These are all miscellaneous fish. The big fish are guaranteed to be in the two-story buildings in front! Move quickly and finish the work before the second and third battalions arrive!" The magnet splashed on his face.
cried the bloody stain.
In the gambling house on the first floor, there were many officers who had been gambling here all night last night, and some simply lay down on the gambling table.
The higher-ranking officers were resting in the private room upstairs. When the soldiers broke into the room where Zhao Keli was resting, Zhao Keli was still sleeping with two women in his arms. The naked Zhao Keli was lifted off the bed by the soldiers.
