After Yang Zhen said these words, it was not only Guo Bingxun and Qiu Jintang who were stunned by him and did not understand what he meant by "long experience", but also the other party involved, Ma Qichang, who was also stunned by him. He was obviously a little confused.
At a loss.【.Com text】
Ma Qichang, who had reacted, quickly waved his hands and said with a bitter look on his face: "Sir, that's not what I meant. We have been traitors for many years and have been oppressed by the little devils and massacred our compatriots. We have long had enough, and we have long wanted to join the Anti-Japanese Alliance.
You are fighting the devils."
"But, can you believe us? Since ancient times, loyal ministers have not served two masters. We have been traitors and have committed crimes against the country and the nation. There are stains on us. We have also fought against the Anti-Japanese Alliance.
"
After hearing Ma Qichang's words, Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun shook their heads at each other and sighed: "You did not become traitors of your own free will. You were forced and deceived by your superiors. Don't feel any burden on your heart. As long as you become traitors in the future.
If we are determined to fight the Japanese, we will be comrades and brothers who will live and die together."
After Yang Zhen finished speaking, Ma Qichang, who had lowered his head just now, raised his head and said in disbelief: "Do you really still trust us?"
"Why not? As long as you are willing to kill the Japanese, we welcome them." After that, Yang Zhen stretched out his hand to Ma Qichang and said, "Welcome to your arrival."
Ma Qichang tightly grasped the hand handed over by Yang Zhen, and said excitedly to his subordinates who were looking this way: "Brothers, from today on, we are not traitors, we are upright Chinese, and we are resisters."
Connected."
After shouting, Ma Qichang did not look at his brothers who were also excited. Instead, he turned his head and raised his hand and gave Yang Zhenjing a standard military salute: "Sir, please give me an order. We will fight wherever you tell us."
Yang Zhen nodded and said: "Okay. Our artillery is in need of manpower. From now on, you will be the deputy commander of our artillery company and the captain of the artillery training team. But now your task is to use accurate artillery fire to kill one of us."
The troops that are blocking the reinforcements come down under cover. I will personally go up and act as an observer for you."
After that, Yang Zhen smiled and waved his hand to stop Guo Bingxun and a few people around him from trying to persuade him to give up this idea. He said to Ma Qichang: "Although I am not an artillery person, I have also learned about the artillery business.
Some. Although they don’t know how to use this kind of Japanese mountain artillery, they are confident that they are still qualified as an artillery observer. Just in time, I can see how capable you are from the front."
Yang Zhen had already said this, what else could Ma Qichang have to say? He said excitedly to Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun: "Please be careful, two officers, I will definitely complete the task today."
After hearing his assurance, Yang Zhen nodded and said: "Okay, whether it's a mule or a horse, let's see the real chapter on the battlefield."
After saying that, he turned to Guo Bingxun and said: "Old Guo, leave me one company. You can take the other people to cover the wounded and loot and go to meet the political commissar. And of these six mountain cannons, just leave two of them for me, and the rest
Take them all away. I will take people to meet Deputy Chief of Staff Wang." "Lao Yang, you are the highest commander of the army, not a company commander or battalion commander. I hope you will not act out of emotion. What you bear is
The fate and future of all the officers and soldiers of this unit, not the future and destiny of a certain unit. I hope you can correct your position and stay in your command position at all times. I will go to Lao Wang, and you will lead the unit.
Evacuate first and rendezvous with the political commissar." Guo Bingxun seemed very dissatisfied with Yang Zhen's arrangement.
In his opinion, Yang Zhen, the military chief, is not doing his job properly. He is the commander and commander-in-chief of this unit, not a battalion and company commander. He should be in his own command position instead of going to some units that should be assigned to him.
Things to do down there.
Regarding Guo Bingxun's words, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "Old Guo, I don't know where my position is. But Old Guo, do you know the density of artillery and the calculation of azimuth firing range? There are other people here who know how to use it.
? The difference between the use of mortars and the use of mountain artillery is not small. Just like rifles and heavy machine guns, although they are both guns, their structure and use are completely different."
"What we lack now is not only soldiers and equipment, but also all kinds of command and technical talents. Don't you think it's an irony that we have captured artillery but don't know how to use it?"
"If it hadn't been for Ma Qichang today, we, who lacked heavy fire support, would have captured these artillery pieces, but we could only blow them up or bury them. Because no one knows how to use our mountain artillery."
"Lao Guo, I don't want to either. But before the necessary talents are trained, I can only share more of some things. Lao Guo, please stop arguing. We don't have much time."
Seeing that Yang Zhen had made up his mind, Guo Bingxun could only sigh slightly and said: "Okay, I obey. However, when we just counted the loot, we seized a fifteen-watt radio station and two five-watt radio stations from the Japanese.
You take them all with you. I'm selecting the two best operators. This is a mountainous area, and the fifteen-watt radio is slightly more powerful, and the signal is stronger than the five-watt radio."
"No, I'll take the two five-watt ones, and you can take the fifteen-watt one. There's also a radio station at Lao Wang's place. If anything happens, you can send it to him. Also, the radio station you brought.
It was blown up by Japanese artillery fire, and you have no means of communication."
After that, Yang Zhen patted Guo Bingxun on the shoulder and said: "Old Guo, I'm leaving first. You must bring the wounded to the political commissar safely. If there is an emergency, you can't throw away the loot or even the artillery.
A wounded man.
"Also, please communicate with Lao Peng. After this battle, we are going to withdraw to Lao Heidingzi to rest. In addition, you have to work harder and find a way to compile more sets of passwords. Our current passwords are too single and easy to
It was deciphered by the Japs. There are many young Japs with talents in this field, we must be careful. Okay, let’s not talk about it anymore, we will see you at the political commissar’s office.”
When Yang Zhen rushed to Wang Guangyu's blocking position, he discovered that the situation was much worse than what Wang Guangyu said in the telegram. Although only a small part of the Japanese and puppet troops Wang Guangyu faced were Japanese troops, most of the troops were
The Puppet Manchukuo military police were not as numerous as Guo Bingxun's side, only seven or eight hundred. But the spirit of this Puppet Manchukuo military police was very different from the Puppet Manchukuo military police that Yang Zhen had encountered before.
Not only did these puppet Manchukuo troops have clean and neat tactical movements, they looked like veterans who had undergone rigorous training. Moreover, after each attack was repelled, they rarely retreated, and their advance and retreat were extremely orderly. After the attack failed, those who were not dead lay down on the ground.
On the ground, they appeared to be extremely tenacious in firing against the blocking troops on the mountain. And their marksmanship was also very accurate. Although the artillery did not have mountain guns, the number of mortars covering the attack reached more than a dozen.
Seeing the Japanese and puppet troops attacking desperately under the cover of flares and using flashlights at the foot of the mountain, they all arrived at the front line. At this time, Ma Qichang, who was observing the movements at the foot of the mountain with an artillery scope, couldn't help but sigh, and said to Yang Zhen: "
Sir, these puppet troops at the foot of the mountain are not comparable to us old Northeastern troops. They are all trained by little devils. The officers at all levels are all Japanese, and their equipment is much better than ours. They are all Japanese.
The latest Japanese equipment.”
"Damn, this is the Jing'an Army specially trained by the little devils to encircle and suppress the Anti-Japanese Alliance in South Manchuria? You see, they all have a red arrow on their sleeves, which is the logo of the Jing'an Army. This time the little devils actually
Have you transferred them here?"
"Aren't these Jing'an troops transferred to the pass by the little devils to fight against the National Government? Sir, this Jing'an army is the most powerful and best-equipped unit among the puppet Manchukuo army, and its various benefits are unmatched by ordinary puppet Manchukuo troops.
Comparable. I heard that when he cooperated with the Japanese army in the pass last year, he won many battles, and even the regular army of the Nationalist Government was no match for him."
When Yang Zhen heard Ma Qichang's report, he quickly raised his telescope and took a look. Sure enough, these puppet troops all had a red arrow embroidered on their uniform sleeves. Although he didn't know the origins of this Jingan Army, he knew from the evidence that these puppet troops had
Judging from the fighting vigor of the army, he knew that these puppet troops should not be underestimated.
Yang Zhen put down the telescope in his hand, but did not say anything in depth. Instead, he said to Ma Qichang beside him: "How about it? Do you have the confidence to defeat them with artillery fire?"
Ma Qichang did not answer Yang Zhen immediately, but raised his telescope and carefully observed the offensive formation of the puppet troops at the foot of the mountain before saying: "Sir, although we only brought two mountain cannons this time, we brought six shells."
Ten shots.”
"You see, these Jing'an troops are very arrogant. When attacking, the formation is very dense, and the skirmish lines are not very open. These two Japanese-style 94-type mountain cannons have a long range, are powerful, and the killing effect is better than that of four
The Type 1 mountain artillery is huge. Their main assembly points and even ammunition parking points are within our range."
"Do you think I should use artillery fire to hit his follow-up echelon and the place where the main force is gathered? As for their attacking troops, I think it is better to use light and heavy machine guns to suppress them from the front. We use artillery fire to suppress their follow-up echelons, while at the same time the front-line defense forces are suppressed.
The troops are taking the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and I think we should be able to defeat these puppet troops in front of us in one fell swoop. Although they were trained by the Kwantung Army, their combat effectiveness is still different from that of the Japanese."
After listening to Ma Qichang's suggestion, Yang Zhen pondered for a moment, turned his head and looked at Wang Guangyu beside him, and then said: "Old Wang, what do you think?"
After Wang Guangyu glanced at the frontline troops who were fighting hard against the puppet troops who were desperately attacking, he hesitated and said: "Commander, due to the limitations of previous conditions and equipment, we have not used the tactic of infantry and artillery coordination. It is not suitable for them.
I understand very well. However, Commander, we currently have limited troops on hand."
"Since the exchange of fire with these Jing'an troops, we have been fighting for such a long time. The company of Liu Changshun that I brought with me is now only a company of lightly wounded people who can move. The total number of lightly wounded people is less than one and a half platoons. Even if you are included,
The one he brought was not enough to make up the company, and at best it was just a reinforcement of the company's strength."
"Furthermore, our firepower is limited. The two mortars I brought have already run out of shells, and the remaining light and heavy machine guns only have six left. The key is that there is not much ammunition. This is plus
All the machine guns of the company you brought are included."
"Commander, it can be said that we have lost the ability to counterattack now. I have fought guerrillas with the Japanese for many years, and I am still very clear about their tactics. We defeated two of the three Japanese encirclements. I am afraid that the Japanese reinforcements
Already on the way here."
"It is not difficult to defeat this puppet army according to Captain Ma's tactics. But you have also seen the strength of this puppet army. Although it is not as good as the real Japanese army, it is not much worse. Once we are entangled by them, the Japanese reinforcements will
Once we arrive, it will be very difficult to get rid of them based on the number of troops we have on hand."
"Commander, the days to come are long and cannot be determined at this moment. We cannot ruin this unit because of our greed for too much. I suggest that we use artillery fire to inflict a certain amount of damage on it, cover the retreat of the unit, and merge with the main force.
As for these puppet Manchukuo troops, let them go first. Commander, it will be easy to survive if you eat too much."
After listening to Wang Guangyu's words, Yang Zhen raised his telescope and looked at the Japanese and puppet troops at the foot of the mountain. After being silent for a while, he gritted his teeth and said to Ma Qichang beside him: "Listen to Deputy Chief of Staff Wang, concentrate all your artillery fire."
Let me attack their main force and cover the withdrawal of the forward troops. Let these puppet Manchukuo troops survive for a few more days. There will be many opportunities to deal with them in the future."
Regarding Yang Zhen's order, Ma Qichang didn't say much. He nodded, put away the artillery scope captured together with the artillery, turned around and walked down the mountain, running towards the artillery position that was ready to fire.
Yang Zhen said to the radio operator who was following him: "You have to send the number I reported to Company Commander Ma accurately later. Remember, if you send a wrong word, the place where the shell fell may be our own."
On the head. If the calculation is wrong, kill my head. If the calculation is wrong, kill your head."
Seeing that the radio operator nodded hastily after listening to his words, Yang Zhen turned to Wang Guangyu and said: "Old Wang, give the troops an order immediately. When the gunfire sounds, let the troops immediately take advantage of the gunfire.
Take cover and withdraw. Blow up all supplies and weapons that cannot be taken away."
After giving two orders in succession, Yang Zhen raised his telescope and carefully observed the movements of the Japanese and puppet troops using the flares fired by the puppet Manchukuo troops at the foot of the mountain, while quickly calculating in his mind the various data required for the bombardment.
The Japanese and puppet troops at the foot of the mountain were not prepared for the fact that although the fighting power of the bandits on the mountain was relatively fierce, their equipment was much simpler than them, with only two mortars at most, so many artillery pieces would suddenly appear. When the first
When a shell used to correct the ballistic trajectory fell, these Jing'an troops, who had been extremely fierce just now, were defeated in an instant.
Ma Qichang's skills were indeed excellent. After the first shell missed, he immediately corrected the trajectory based on the data reported by Yang Zhen. The subsequent shells seemed to have eyes, and they landed accurately in Jing'an one after another.
Among the formations of the military brigade.
Ma Qichang's excellent skills and Yang Zhen's constant reporting of accurate data formed the best combination. They were so fierce just now, and despite blocking the Jingan Army's skirmishing line and follow-up queues that were desperately attacking, they were densely packed by this time.
Accurate artillery fire blew everything to pieces.
When the artillerymen of the Jingan Army, who had been serving as cover, tried hard to find the opponent's artillery position, engage in an artillery battle with the opponent, and cover the bombed infantry back, they sadly discovered that the range of the mortars they had on hand was far beyond that of others.
The opponent's cannonballs couldn't even scratch the target. Instead, he was accompanied by a cannon, and was blown up into the sky by the cannon fire diverted by others.
Just when Yang Zhen and Ma Qichang combined their swords and used fierce and accurate artillery fire to kill and injure the Jing'an army, causing chaos, Wang Guangyu did not waste any time and immediately organized the frontline troops to withdraw.
Come down.
Yang Zhen saw that Wang Guangyu had withdrawn, and that the unsuspecting Jingan Army at the foot of the mountain had been blown away by the burst of artillery fire and had lost its combat effectiveness, so he gave the order to retreat without any hesitation.
Although at least in the eyes of most of the cadres and soldiers in the army, the Jing'an Army at the foot of the mountain had lost their combat effectiveness after being bombarded by sixty rounds of artillery shells. At this time, going down the mountain to touch it should be able to achieve considerable results.
Especially Liu Changshun, who has been suppressed and beaten by these Jing'an troops, even more strongly demanded that even a tactical counterattack be carried out. Even if he could not completely defeat these arrogant puppet troops at the foot of the mountain, he would still bite off a piece of their flesh.
Come.
Regarding Liu Changshun's request to attack, Yang Zhen refused without any hesitation. Even due to time constraints, he didn't even have to explain too much.
Seeing the commander's tough attitude, Liu Changshun could only follow Yang Zhen's order and lead his troops and evacuate the front-line positions while carrying the wounded, despite his unwillingness.
