The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 607 The foundation of the foothold cannot be shaken, and the war is bound to fail
After thinking about it, Xia Yuan can't judge where they are now. It is normal to get lost in the battlefield, but one thing can be judged, the direction of the Japanese army's attack is on their side, which proves that his direction is Nothing wrong with that.

But I just don't know if this direction is west or east.

It’s okay to go west, you can reach the hinterland of China all the way west, but if you go east, you will only reach the war zone between China and Japan, and the direction of deviation is getting farther and farther.

"We have only two roads now, one is to pass through, but I don't know exactly how many Japanese troops are on this road, but I can be sure that as the national army advances the front line, this place will become a battle zone. We will also be in danger. Of course, we may also pass through before the arrival of the national army."

"The other way is to wait for the troops of the national army to arrive. We will return to the ranks of the national army. This is the safest way, because the troops of the national army will eventually push over. We just need to wait in peace and wait until they arrive to assist us. They just attack the Japanese positions."

Xia Yuan analyzed the current battlefield situation.

It was too late for them to retreat now, the general offensive had been launched for a while, and the front line of the national army was advancing all the way, but it had not yet reached the front line of the Japanese army. There was a fierce battle in the buffer zone between the two sides, only a hundred meters away from them.

Xia Yuan immediately judged that it was too late to retreat.

In fact, the retreat was in conflict with his mission, but as long as he did not leave the Songhu battlefield, he would not be judged as a mission failure.

"In addition to these two methods, there is another method, and that is to be a deserter and find a place to hide. When the troops of the national army advance, you will have a chance to escape."

Xia Yuan withdrew his gaze, squatted on the ground, and scanned the five people.

Platoon Leader Zhao said resolutely: "I will not be a deserter, not even if I die. I don't want to be stabbed in the back for the rest of my life!"

Niu Hai said: "Brother Xia, we are just rotten people. Without you, how could I avenge my mother and my father? I will follow you. Anyway, all my relatives are dead. Maybe someday, I will die." Now, it's better to let my death be more valuable as I told Brother Chen."

The scholar said: "Brother Xia, I followed you when I came out, and I will follow you now. I am not a deserter."

Xu Liu smiled wryly and said: "You have all chosen, and I have no choice either. I have suffered such serious injuries, and I am a bad person when I return to the barracks. Either I will be beaten to death by the officers, or I will starve to death. I have no choice."

What Xu Liu said was quite sad. As a veteran, he suffered injustice in the barracks. It can be seen that other recruits are often served with sticks. They doze off at night. Once they are caught, they will be served with sticks. His ass was beaten to pieces, and he was tortured. If you survived, you are lucky. If you continue to exploit you, if you don’t survive, you will die.

Feudal superstitions often exist in the army. Many soldiers who have suffered oppression and exploitation believe that the reason they live like this is because their ancestors did not accumulate virtue and blessings, and the reason why those officers became officers is because their ancestors accumulated virtue. , there are blessings, so this life does not need to be so hard.

Therefore, even though these soldiers were exploited and oppressed, they did not have any thoughts of resistance. This concept has been deeply rooted in their bones.

Zheng Dayong said: "Wherever the platoon leader goes, we will go there, and we will follow the platoon leader."

Everyone's opinions were unanimously unanimous, which made Xia Yuan somewhat unexpected. He squatted on the ground and thought about it for a while, and he didn't make a decision until the Japanese devils came over.

"Okay, then let's fight the Japanese devils. The sons of bitches are all human beings. If we kill one, we will not lose money if we die. If we kill two, we will earn. If we kill more, we will earn even more." many."

Xia Yuan slapped his head, led them into the ruins, and let everyone lie down with the corpse on the ground.

The Japanese devils ran over, found a house that was still in good condition, and sneaked in without even looking at it.

The sky is dark and cloudy, and the rain is getting heavier and heavier. Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for the national army.

Attacking the right wing was the 120rd Battalion of the [-]st Regiment of the National Army, with more than [-] people. Taking the company as a unit, they were divided into three directions to attack the blocking Japanese army. The platoon was divided into three groups to attack the houses occupied by the Japanese army. The two sides fought fiercely between the alleys and repeatedly competed for the houses occupied by the Japanese army.

The bullets intertwined in the torrential rain, smashing the walls and bricks with a piercing whistling sound. From time to time, there was a muffled groan, and shaking figures were often seen falling to the ground. Between the torrential rain, the Japanese army The walls of the second-story house were pierced, and the muzzle flames from the machine guns flickered in the dark night.

The explosion spread among the muddy ground. The muddy soil was already muddy after being soaked and washed by the heavy rain, and the power of the grenade was greatly reduced.

Such weather is even more unfavorable to the attacking national army.

The company commander of the Seventh Company was named Sun Tian, ​​he was five big and three rough, with a bulging stomach, and he often exploited the soldiers under pressure. He hid among the ruins and observed the battle ahead with binoculars. The deputy company commander ran back in disgrace.

"Old Sun, the situation is not good. The Japanese army's firepower is fierce, and the brothers can't fight." The deputy company commander was relatively concerned about the life and death of the underground brothers. Turned into a painted face.

"Let's withdraw and continue fighting, the Seventh Company will be wiped out."

Sun Tian cursed: "Grandma's scumbag, retreat, you come and tell me how to retreat, the officers who beat me behind are all staring at us, you retreat, the gunpoint will be directly on your forehead."

The deputy company commander said with a sad face, "Then what to do, company commander, our brothers are going to be wiped out."

"What can we do if we light up the light? Continue to recruit recruits." Sun Tian glared at the deputy company commander, observed the Japanese light machine guns on the second floor with a telescope, and said cursingly: "I saw the Japanese devils' machine guns. No, let someone blow it up, and our brothers can rush over."

The deputy company commander opened his mouth and was dumb for a long time.

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up!" Sun Tian yelled at the deputy company commander again.

The deputy company commander who stumbled and ran away felt desperate, glanced at the platoon leaders who were waiting for orders in the distance, gritted his teeth and said: "What are you doing in a daze, the company commander's order has been issued, continue to attack the Japanese devils' firepower points, we It is necessary to open the road blocked by the Japanese devils with firepower in the shortest possible time.

Attacking the firepower of the Japanese devils is an act of death.

The second platoon leader stared at the Japanese firepower point in the distance, and said: "Deputy company commander, there are still many Japanese soldiers around the Japanese devil's firepower point. We rush over like this, it is completely an act of death."

"Then go and tell the company commander what's going on. I just got scolded by the company commander. I hurried to issue an order. After delaying the time, you will all be sent to a military court!"

The deputy company commander vented his anger at Sun Tian to several platoon leaders.

The three platoon leaders had no choice but to give the order to continue the attack. They had to use their flesh and blood to open a gap for the main attacking force in the rear.

Sun Tian observed the firepower of the Japanese devils with binoculars, and couldn't help cursing: "That group of damned waste in the new barracks, without even resisting, lost all the occupied positions, so that the Japanese devils put all their firepower on So close to our line of defense."

Sun Tian believed that all the faults were on the recruit battalion responsible for attracting Japanese firepower.

Before the general offensive was launched, he heard from the battalion commander that the commander transferred a group of recruits from Zhongyuan and sent them to the battlefield to consume the bullets and shells of the Japanese army before they launched a general offensive against the Japanese positions. When the group of recruits arrived on the battlefield, they retreated very quickly, not only losing the positions they had previously occupied, but even allowing the Japanese devils to advance a certain distance.

Relying on the advantages of the terrain, the Japanese army occupied many houses and set up many machine gun fire points, which had a great impact on the attacking national army. A Japanese army divided and occupied a house could withstand a platoon of the national army, and even A company's attack.

Under such circumstances, the national army has just pushed the front line forward a lot after paying huge sacrifices.

While Sun Tian was cursing and scolding the new barracks, behind the Japanese army, Xia Yuan led six people quietly approaching the Japanese army's machine gun firepower point. Platoon leader Zhao went to investigate, and ran back after a while, cursing :
"Grandma, the firepower of the Japanese devils is really fierce. The bullets are as if they don't need money. The gun keeps ringing. It was already ringing when we came here, and it is still ringing now."

"Look, that open place, yes, it's there." Xia Yuan pointed to the scholar, and then asked, "How's the attacking national army brother?"

"What else can we do? The casualties were heavy, and the firepower of the Japanese devils is really fierce. They can't break through the firepower blockade of the Japanese devils. I guess even if we go up, it will be enough."

Platoon Leader Zhao lay on the collapsed window. In addition to seeing the ferocious machine gun fire of the Japanese army, he also saw the attacking figures of the national army. Relying on the terrain, they attacked the houses occupied by the Japanese army. Under the flickering artillery fire, they could be seen. There are also the bodies of the national army brothers who fell on the muddy ground.

Their casualties were enormous.

Throughout the Songhu battlefield, the national army made huge mistakes in its offensive methods, which eventually led to not only the disastrous defeat of this battle, but the most important thing was that several main group armies of the national army were destroyed.

More than enough, there is almost no hope of victory in this war. The Japanese army used the power of the whole country to invade China. Build warships.

Against the Japanese resistance against the Bald Head, since the September [-]th Incident in [-], the Bald Head has adopted a policy of non-resistance, handing over the three eastern provinces, passively resisting the Japanese, but can it be said that the soldiers of the national army are passively resisting the Japanese?No, the ones who passively resisted the Japanese were baldheads, not soldiers of the national army.

It was also after the July [-]th Incident in [-] that the bald head was forced to start the War of Resistance. However, even during the period of cooperation between the KMT and the Communist Party, the bald head did not stop hunting down the underground gangsters. make a huge contribution.

Secondly, the bald-headed policy of the war of resistance was based on the illusion that the great powers would intervene, which led to a simple defensive policy of fortifying everywhere, resisting every step of the way, and fighting recklessly in the early stages of the war. The Japanese army had aircraft, artillery, tanks, and warships. In positional warfare, the national army is no match for the Japanese army, but even so, the bald head still organized a series of battles such as the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Jinling, the Battle of Xuzhou, and the Defense of Taiyuan. Live in a war of attrition in which everyone loses land.

The most deadly point is that this kind of war of attrition with bald heads did not mobilize the people of the whole country. The army could not get enough supplies and soldiers, and it did not exert any home court advantage in terms of intelligence.

On the other hand, the three major battles of the People's Liberation Army mobilized the masses and mobilized the masses. During the three major battles of the People's Liberation Army, ordinary people pushed small carts and carried burdens to deliver food, drink, and money to the soldiers fighting on the front lines. Money is paid, people send people, and the masses go deep into the places occupied by the enemy to pass information to the PLA. Where the reactionaries have gone and what they have done are all firmly controlled by the PLA.

Can a bald head mobilize the masses?No, if you want to gain the support of the people, you must mobilize the people. Farmers are exploited, soldiers are beaten and scolded, bureaucrats are corrupt, dictatorship, and a series of social problems must be solved. If these problems are not resolved, how can you mobilize the masses.

Solving these problems will affect the notice basis for the bald elite to govern the country. Therefore, he did not solve these problems. These problems are the foundation of his foothold. The foundation of his foothold cannot be shaken, and the war is bound to fail.

Such a bad strategy has been adopted to ruin the patriotic enthusiasm and flesh and blood of the soldiers. In three years, millions of troops were buried, and 50 of them simply became puppet troops.

Throughout the battle waged by the sightheads, the soldiers of the national army were bruised and bloody, fighting for every inch of land.

What is really rotten is the ruling class of the national army. Beating with military sticks, scraping alive, and drinking human broth often happen in the barracks. During the training of the new barracks, people are hanged and whipped everywhere.Under such a horrible management, no one would say that the chief embezzled the military salary privately. Whether the soldiers can see the military salary depends on luck.

And on this basis, officers will also eat empty quotas, that is, falsely report the number of soldiers, and then falsely claim these non-existing soldiers' salaries, and the empty quotas will also be used by lower-level officers to bribe superior officers. There are [-] to [-] vacancies, and the company commander can usually eat about ten vacancies.

Take the [-]th Army of the National Army as an example. After the [-]th Army surrendered, according to the statistics of the political cadres, the actual strength of the [-]th Army was only two-thirds of what was reported to their officers before, and the other third was taken by companies at all levels. The commander, the battalion commander, and the commander of the regiment took advantage of the vacancies layer by layer.
