In a village more than ten kilometers away from Lushun, Li Wengong's troops are stationed here.
This is a small village, with about 200 households and more than 1,000 people. Most of them are local farmers and are very honest. Although this village is not too far from the main road, its location is very hidden. The Japs and
The puppet troops didn't notice this at all.
Less than five miles away from the village is Wafangdian County, where a Japanese infantry brigade is stationed, and there is also a regiment of puppet troops, with a strength of about a thousand or so.
The main task of the Li Wengong Regiment of the Second Infantry Division of the Yanhuang Army was to cooperate with the Independent Fifth Battalion to capture Wafangdian County after the Fengtian Defense Battle began and cut off the Japanese Lushun headquarters from other places.
In Lushun Port, the Japanese army stationed a mixed brigade, and Dalian also stationed an infantry regiment. If these troops were transferred to other places, they would put huge pressure on other places, so after Luo Xiao and Sun Jian discussed it, they let
Li Wengong and the Fifth Independent Brigade lurked in a small village near Wafangdian in advance, waiting for the opportunity to take action.
It was easy to capture the county seat and eliminate the Japanese brigade and puppet troops, but the next task would be much more difficult, because what they had to do next was to rely on the Wafangdian county seat to block the Japanese troops sent from Dalian and Lushun to Fengtian.
Troops elsewhere.
With more than 3,000 troops to block the Japanese onslaught of 7,000 to 8,000 people, not to mention the Japanese also had heavy firepower such as mountain artillery, defending the city must have been very hard, and even the sacrifices would have been relatively high, but Li Wengong and the troops of the Fifth Independent Brigade
Captain Zhou He took on this task without any hesitation.
Three days ago, they quietly arrived at this small village by airborne. After entering the village, they quickly took control of the village and then waited.
Time passed day by day, and three days passed in the blink of an eye, and there was still no movement. This made Li Wengong He a little anxious, and he talked to Zhou He three or four times a day.
Of course, Zhou He is also anxious, but there is no way. These need to be arranged by the Yanhuang Army Command Center, and they only need to execute them.
It was late at night, and Li Wengong was sitting in the regiment headquarters, still busy. He was deducing the battle process based on the sand table, and then making preparations.
Conquering the county seat was easy. On the simulated sand table, Li Wengong successfully captured Wafangdian with only one battalion, but the subsequent defense against the Japanese reinforcements from Lushun and Dalian was not so easy.
On the simulated sand table, the two sides were fighting fiercely. The Japanese's attack was very fierce, and the defense of Li Wengong and Zhou He was also watertight. The two sides launched a fierce tug-of-war, causing a lot of casualties.
Just when Li Wengong thought it was time to join the reserve team to fight back against the Japanese, the phone rang. He quickly put down his pencil and grabbed the phone.
"I am Li Wengong!"
"I'm Sun Jian!" Sun Jian's handsome face appeared on the phone, and his straight military uniform made him look quite heroic. "The command headquarters ordered that the short circuit break plan is cancelled. Your department and Zhou He's independent brigade will immediately
Set off and rush to the dock warehouse in Port Arthur, and then stick there until the mission is over."
"What?" Li Wengong stood up and said hurriedly, "Political Commissar, everything is arranged here. If we fight, we will definitely inflict heavy damage on the Japanese. Why change the plan? Besides, Port Arthur is the commander of the Kwantung Army.
The headquarters is where the Japanese troops are strong, and there is no danger to defend the dock and warehouse. It is really not a wise move to defend there. I suggest that the headquarters consider it carefully."
"This is a decision made by the headquarters after careful consideration. You should implement it immediately." Sun Jian said with a serious look, "After arriving at the dock warehouse, you will all be under the command of the old political commissar Yan Beifeng. Everything must be carried out according to his arrangements.
.”
"Political Commissar Yan?" Li Wengong was even more confused. He could never imagine why Political Commissar Yan Beifeng was going there instead of recovering from his injuries at Hu Xiaoling.
"Don't ask any more questions, execute it immediately!" Sun Jian shouted, "We must arrive at the dock warehouse within an hour."
"Yes." Li Wengong had a premonition that the matter was serious. He responded, turned off the encrypted phone, and then walked outside the regiment headquarters.
"Inform the bugler to blow the emergency assembly horn." Li Wengong put on his coat and shouted to the guards beside him.
The guard also knew that the situation was urgent and ran down. Soon a loud horn sounded, and then the village was boiling.
The soldiers were awakened from their deep sleep, put on their clothes one after another, then packed up their belongings and rushed towards the gathering place.
When everyone rushed to the gathering place, they found that commanders and fighters at all levels in the regiment were already there, with serious expressions on their faces. It must be that something big had happened.
After the troops were assembled, Captain Li Wengong stood in front of everyone, looked around at the soldiers, and then shouted, "Order from superiors, action changes, set off immediately."
When the soldiers heard this, they all put a question mark in their heads, but the military orders were so overwhelming that they did not even have time to hesitate. They immediately left the field and walked out of the village under the command of their respective military commanders.
.
At this time, the villagers in the village were also alarmed, and everyone spontaneously gathered at the entrance of the village to loosen the soldiers who had been stationed in the village for just three days.
These troops are different from other troops in the past. They do not bully the common people, do not steal things, and do not bully women. Instead, they help the common people do a lot of work, and they always speak kindly, which makes the common people feel different.
"Folks, we have received an order to leave on an urgent mission. You can go back, there is no need to send them off again." Looking at the villagers gathering at the entrance of the village with their things, Li Wengong stood on a high place and shouted loudly.
"Captain Li, why are you leaving? We have only stayed here for so many days. We really can't bear to leave." The village chief squeezed out from the crowd and said to Li Wengong tremblingly.
"Uncle, our troops have a mission and have to leave immediately. There is nothing we can do about it. We will come back to see you when we have time." Li Wengong said with a smile, "We are leaving first. You can go back."
The troops passed through the entrance of the village as the villagers greeted them, turned onto the dirt road outside the village, and ran towards Lushun.
After they had gone far, Li Wengong looked back and saw that the villagers at the entrance of the village had not dispersed yet and were still waving to him and them, and he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
"To protect our family and our country, to protect our family and our country, isn't that what we are fighting for as soldiers? It's worth it!" Li Wengong laughed loudly, urging the horse under his crotch to run towards the front of the team.
The team moved forward quickly, heading straight to Port Arthur.
