Age of Rebirth

Fengwen Yamashita had a very bad premonition. The nail he inserted into Duyun City was probably pulled out by the Chinese government army at this time. He lost contact for more than four hours. Anything could happen. After all, the Hengshan United The team is a lightly equipped unit, and it is a lone army that goes deep. It is also possible to be attacked by the tens of thousands of government troops defending Duyun. He was completely ignorant of everything that happened in Duyun.

This feeling of losing the rhythm of the war is very bad. Yamashita Fufumi's original plan was to rest the entire army here for one night, to relieve the fatigue of the troops' continuous marching, and mainly to wait for the heavy equipment troops behind to catch up. , there is not a large number of heavy artillery units, even the arrogant Yamashita Fufumi does not think that the [-]th Army can take down towns and cities with only infantry. Yamashita Fengwen changed the original rest plan and ordered the troops to go to Duyun immediately.

More than 9 Japanese troops, on the mountain road from Dushan to Duyun, pulled out a marching line that could not be seen from front to back. Behind the infantry brigade in front, there was a convoy of nearly a thousand trucks, and several mules and horses dragging artillery. The artillery unit, the truck full of medicine boxes, was panting like a cow on the rugged mountain road, and crawled with difficulty. The Japanese army's supply unit and artillery unit were about half a day behind the infantry.

The Longtou River is only about [-] meters wide. In the dry season, pedestrians can cross the river with their trousers on their heels. If it catches up with the rainy season, the river can be about two meters deep and tens of meters wide. The turbid waves are mixed with the trees and weeds washed down from the upstream, roaring and flowing into the distance.In the June season in southern Guizhou, there was more rain, and there were several heavy rains in the upper reaches. Right now, the Longtou River was roaring with turbid water, turning into a big river with wide water and high waves.

When the infantry of the No.15 army crossed the river, they had good luck.On the river, I don't know that the stone bridge built that year is still intact, when Fengwen crossed the bridge at the foot of the mountain.Riding on a tall horse, looking at the rushing river, I felt a little more contempt for the generals of the Chinese government army in my heart. This is the only way to Duyun.If the Chinese soldiers destroy the bridge, they will be able to stop the imperial army for at least three days, and it will cause great trouble to the artillery and supply troops behind, right now.With the bridge in good condition, these concerns no longer exist. [

When the Japanese infantry crossed the Longtou River, in the dense jungle and bushes on the south bank, there were two groups of Chinese soldiers in completely different uniforms lurking.If you look closely, the dozens of soldiers marked on the badges are the No. 19 Army of the Central Army. They were forcibly subdued by another group of Chinese soldiers and held down on the ground. Burning angry flames, but there is a black hole in the muzzle of the gun on his head.Let these Central Army soldiers dare not struggle.

The marching ranks of the Japanese army are like a long dragon.Rolling towards the direction of Duyun, starting from the morning.It was not over until the evening glow dyed the trees on the western mountain peaks red. After the sky was completely dark, the last group of Japanese soldiers crossed the Longtou River Stone Bridge and disappeared into the darkness on the north bank. The footsteps were completely inaudible.

An outrageously young colonel waved his hand a little lazily. Dozens of Central Army soldiers finally got their freedom. A lieutenant colonel of the Central Army who led the team rubbed his numb arm and asked angrily: "Are you That part? Why stop us from blowing up bridges and keep guns on our brother's heads all day?"

The young colonel smiled slightly, showing his white teeth, and said: "I'm sorry, brothers of the Central Army, let me introduce myself, Chu Tian, ​​the leader of the special warfare detachment of the North China Independent Division, what do you call this brother? "The Lieutenant Colonel of the Central Army was taken aback. The North China Independent Division had heard that it was a very capable team. In the north, they beat the shit out of the little devils, but why did they appear here?If the bridge is not allowed to be blown up and the little devil crosses the river, what is An's intention?

It happened by coincidence that Chu Tian followed the order of his division commander Tang Qiuli to send all the special operations detachment deep into the south of Guizhou to scout all the movements of the Japanese army. He himself led two teams of more than 500 people into the independent In the Longtoujiang area between Shanshan and Duyun, because the division commander mentioned that the Japanese army attacking all the way here was the No. 15 army of Fengwen Yamashita, the ace unit, Chu Tian took it seriously and came to reconnaissance in person.

Guo Huawen ordered the spy battalion to blow up the bridge on the Longtou River. When the battalion commander Shi Jinsheng led dozens of brothers to work on the bridge, Chutian and the others had already arrived in the woods by the river. Originally, Chutian also had the idea of ​​building this bridge. The Central Army planted explosives under the bridge, and the special forces members watched in the woods, but Chutian changed his mind after receiving information from the reconnaissance team in the direction of Dushan.

The soldiers of the Central Army had just buried the explosives. In less than ten minutes, the No. 15 army's search force appeared in Chutian's binoculars. When the soldiers of the Central Army retreated into the woods, they nervously watched the rolling Japanese infantry The troops held the electric ignition device tightly with both hands, apparently intending to blow up the bridge to prevent the Japanese infantry from crossing the river. Before Chutian could explain, he ordered the special forces to touch it to stop the Central Army soldiers from moving.

Unexpectedly, this whole day would last a whole day, and after all the Japanese infantrymen had finished, they would find time to talk. Chutian saw the hostility of the lieutenant colonel, but he didn't care, and still looked at him with a smile. There was no hostility in his eyes. To be honest, with the methods of these soldiers in strange military uniforms, if they killed dozens of them without making a sound, it would be no more difficult than killing a few chickens. He was just angry. These independent divisions The soldiers, let the little devils not fight, but deal with their own people.

Suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, Shi Jinsheng said: "Mr. Chu, we are from the No. 19 Group Army Special Service Battalion of the Central Army defending Duyun. The humble position is Battalion Commander Shi Jinsheng. On the order of our Commander Guo, we are here to blow up this bridge. Well, the little devils are all over, and we haven't fulfilled the commander's order," there was a deep complaint in his tone.

Chu Tian said apologetically: "Battle Commander Shi, the situation is urgent, so we have to take such a measure. If you don't stop you in time, the bridge has been blown up, right?" Shi Jin was so angry that he almost jumped up. , Isn't this nonsense, it's not you who made trouble, this bridge and hundreds of little devils have already flown into the sky.

Chu Tian shook his head with a smile, and said: "Battalion Commander Shi, brothers have had a hard day, come and have something to eat, and talk slowly if you have something to say, I have a better idea, let's discuss it," the special forces team members took out Shi Jinsheng was also a cheerful person for the field rations he carried with him. After being knocked to the ground for a day, his stomach was already growling with hunger, and he began to eat and chew unceremoniously.

Seeing that the battalion commander started eating, dozens of soldiers of the Central Army began to eat unceremoniously. Hey, they have eaten such delicious field food. After eating a box, they are still embarrassed to watch the special warfare The team members looked like they were still full of ideas. The special operations team members smiled and took out their things. After going back and forth, the two sides became familiar with each other.

Seeing that Shi Jinsheng was almost finished eating, Chu Tian said, "Battalion Commander Shi, look, the little devils are all infantry in the past, and it doesn't make much sense to bomb them. According to my information, in a few hours, the Japanese army's supply troops and The artillery units will catch up, how about we blow them up? Especially the artillery of the Japanese army is the biggest threat to you all. If we hit them as hard as possible in Longtoujiang, wouldn’t it be more effective?”

Shi Jinsheng slapped his head and suddenly realized that it was not a big deal. If the little devil had no cannons, the terrain of Duyun City would be enough to kill the little devil's infantry for several months. , Admire the humble position, tell me, you get a charter, and the dozens of brothers under me will all obey you."

This is the result Chutian wants. Don't look at this Battalion Commander Shi, who is tall and thick, and not stupid, he can see through it at a glance, "Captain Shi, how much explosives did you plant under the bridge?" Chu Tian asked, "Two thousand and eight hundred kilograms of high explosives, according to our Commander Guo's intention, blow up the entire bridge to the sky, at least able to stop the little devil for three or two days, Commander Chu, do you have a new idea?" Shi Jinsheng saw it. The leader of the special operations detachment of this independent division definitely has something in his stomach.

Chu Tian smiled and nodded, and said: "Well, Battalion Commander Shi, my soldiers and your brothers will take out [-] kilograms of explosives and plant dozens of them on the road along the south bank of Longtou River. Let's blow it up, wait for the little devil's luggage and artillery to come over, let's blow up the bridge and the car together, and then our people will lie in ambush and beat him in the chaos, what do you think, how big is that scene?

Shi Jinsheng patted his thigh and said: "Okay, it really is a clever plan. If you set fire to the little devil's medicine cart, it will be more exciting. Anyway, I'm full, so just do it if you want to beat the little devil. Our brothers in the No.19 Army are unambiguous."

When Chutian gathered the special operations team together, seeing the equipment of the independent division, Shi Jinsheng was so envious that there were more than 500 people, including more than 60 mortars alone, and dozens of them The strange gun that can't be named, the rest are all submachine guns, he sighed in his heart, the troops of the independent division are so rich!

At around twelve o'clock that night, from the direction of Dushan, there were bursts of roaring motors. After a while, several dazzling lights pierced the dark night sky like poisonous snake eyes. He put his hand on the handle of the phone suddenly, but Chu Tian pressed his hand, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, this is an armored vehicle used by the Japanese army for reconnaissance, and a large convoy is still behind, waiting for these iron guys to pass by.
