blood feud

The construction of the three fortresses here at Yuhuangding is based on the excavation of caves, supported by rail beams, and covered with three layers of logs on the top of the mountain, and then covered with a ten-meter-thick layer of soil.There is only one target, and it must be able to withstand the continuous bombing of 500 kg aerial bombs, and the people inside will not be shocked to death!

The Yuhuangding Fortress Group was defended by the Artillery Battalion of the Tenth Regiment of the Third Division.The main defense is that the enemies on the front line of Jinzhou and Jinxi go northward.At the same time, it provides fire support for the Naughter River Basin in the north to prevent the enemy from raiding the Nanpiao and Lingyuan lines through the complex terrain of the Nurve River Basin.

The Tashan blocking position is located 15 kilometers southeast of the Wolongshan Fortress, and consists of three independent supporting positions.They are the "Kaoshantun Blocking Position" at the forefront in the east, the "Northern Changling Type 41 Modified 75mm Mountain Artillery Position" in the north, and the "Tashan Position" in the southwest.

The defenders in the Tashan blockade are the company of the [-]th Infantry Battalion under the Third Division of Lan Caiqin, with three platoons guarding a position.Because the defensive front is too long, this company does not have a reserve team.

That's why Bai Shujie repeatedly emphasized: "If you can't stop the enemy, you should quickly retreat to the Yuhuangding fortress group and give up Jinxi and Suizhong county towns to the little devil."

However, although Lan Caiqin is a girl like Zhao Jinxi and Gan Tong, the calculation in her heart is not done in the way of Bai Shujie.Bai Shujie was thinking about how to deal with the weird situation before him, when Lan Caiqin's second telegram arrived.

This telegram did not follow the name of the military, but changed the name: "Brother: I don't agree to easily give up Jinxi County to the little devils, and they must pay the price in blood! At present, I have ordered Liu Feipeng, head of the [-]th Regiment, and Yu Jinghui, deputy head of the regiment, rushed to Tiger Pass Fortress and Jiguanshan Fortress to take command, and I myself have arrived at Yuhuangding.”

"According to the information obtained by the reconnaissance company, the assembly point of the attacking troops of the 33rd Brigade of the Japanese Army was selected at the Luojiatun line, 15 kilometers east of the Tashan position. The two forward infantry brigades were divided into two groups, north and south, each equipped with two tanks. Among them, the enemy army on the north route passed through Zhaojiagou and Wangjiatun, and was about to attack our Kaoshantun position; the Japanese army on the south route passed through Zhujiawa, and was about to attack our Tashan position. The battle is just around the corner, brothers, don’t worry about it, just rest assured!”

"It's just playing the piano!" According to the content of Lan Caiqin's telegram, Bai Shujie made gestures on the battle map, and immediately knew what Lan Caiqin wanted to do!

It turned out that the attacking force selected by the little devil was assembled on the Dongqingbao-Luojiatun line. This was the fundamental reason why Lan Caiqin went out in person!Because the 105mm heavy artillery fortress of Longquan Mountain is only 15 kilometers away from the Dongqingbao-Luojiatun line!It is equivalent to saying that the little devil put his attacking troops on the mouth of the cannon!

"This crazy girl is not afraid of big things!" Bai Shujie stared at the map and said bitterly: "No wonder she ordered Liu Feipeng and Yu Jinghui to rush to the front fortress. She must be afraid of mad revenge after angering the little devil!"

Hearing Bai Shujie yelling in the office, Zhao Jinxi hurried over from the next door and asked, "Who made you angry again, why are you yelling?"

Bai Shujie threw the telegram over Zhao Jinxi's chest: "Look for yourself!"

Zhao Jinxi glanced at the telegram quickly, and immediately smiled: "What's the matter, isn't Lan Caiqin just trying to eat the two brigades of the 33rd Brigade? See if you are in a hurry, what's so great about it? Just follow me Look, these two brigades are already dead! The fort artillery of Longquan Mountain must wait for the little devil to launch an attack, and directly attack the enemy's rear! Then use the fort artillery of Wolong Mountain to destroy the line between Kaoshantun and Tashan Sex blow!"

Bai Shujie shook his head: "According to my original thinking, it's okay to let the little devil successfully occupy Suizhong and Jinxi. If she fights like this, it is very likely that Jinzhou's Eighth Division will also come out. If you press all the way to the Tenth Division On the front, I am worried that they will not be able to withstand it. Now the situation in the east and northeast of Fuxin is very serious, and we cannot spare any troops to support it."

"I don't think so!" Zhao Jinxi walked to the front of the battle map and said, "Brother, look, Lan Caiqin actually learned your trick, using herself as a bait to attract the little devil's Eighth Division westward, to ease Zhang Xiang's First Division is under pressure on the front line of Yixian-Yangshuling Fortress. In this way, Zhang Xiang's First Division only needs to concentrate on dealing with the enemy in Montenegro. The Guards Division can fully fight against the Fourth Brigade of the Little Devil's Independent Cavalry group."

Bai Shujie smiled wryly and said: "Why don't I know what this dead girl is thinking? The problem is that her troops are all distributed in more than a dozen fortresses. Except for a guard battalion next to her, all of them are female soldiers. There are no other soldiers under her command." Mobile units. Tell me, am I worried?"

No matter how worried Bai Shujie was, it was useless, because the chariot had already started, and it would naturally go in the predetermined direction.After Lan Caiqin arrived at Yuhuangding Fortress, she called several military officers from the fortress group to hold an emergency meeting overnight.

Tenth Regiment Artillery Battalion Commander Deng Jinfa, Deputy Battalion Commander Meng Kaihua, Artillery Commander Nie Mingyu, First Company Commander Tong Xinzhe, Second Company Commander Ge Fengren, Third Company Commander Chang Ruizhi, and Signal Platoon Commander Gu Haotian, these seven people, upon hearing the presence of the Master Teacher , Naturally dare not neglect, less than an hour, has been concentrated in the Yuhuangding Fortress headquarters.

This is a large artificially excavated cave. The big hole in the middle is the office of the artillery battalion commander, deputy battalion commander and artillery commander. The big hole on the right is the artillery shells in stock, and the left hand is a two-month supply for a battalion.In other words, even if the little devil was besieged for two months, the artillery battalion was not in a hurry.

Seeing that everyone was here, Lan Caiqin stared at the map on the table and said without raising her head: "Deng Jinfa, tell me about the situation here."

"Report to the commander: The enemy in Luojiatun is still preparing for battle, and the little devils from the two brigades have not yet come out. Tong Xinzhe, the commander of the first company, is currently in command of the Longquan Mountain Fortress, and Ge Fengren, the commander of the second company, is in Crouching Tiger Mountain. The third company has always been 150mm The operator of the heavy artillery. However, considering that the 150mm heavy artillery will not be used this time, the air defense platoons of the three companies are gathered together, and Chang Ruizhi, the commander of the third company, is the commander in chief, ready to attack the enemy aircraft."

"What's the status of the Tashan blocking position? How are the personnel arranged?"

"Currently, there are only two sentries on duty at the Kaoshantun and Tashan positions, and the other soldiers are hiding in the artillery holes behind the positions. The main security force on the battlefield is the Beichangling mountain artillery position. Four 4-type 75mm mountain artillery are divided into The two groups monitor the enemy, and no matter which direction there is an enemy situation, the mountain artillery will immediately fire."

Lan Caiqin then asked: "How is the communication between the positions arranged? Will there be communication interruptions during the battle?"

"Report, Commander!" Gu Haotian, the leader of the signal platoon, continued: "There are three telephones in Longquanshan Fortress and Wolongshan Fortress corresponding to the battalion headquarters, which are the six telephones you see now, Commander. Our wires are all buried in the In the one-meter-deep rock crevice, the cable trench is only five centimeters wide, and the three lines are separated to ensure that they will not be blown off."

Lan Caiqin nodded: "Is the artillery spotter and aimer in place? Has the strike area been marked?"

The artillery commander Nie Mingyu stood up and said: "We have now marked the bombing area of ​​1000 to [-] meters around the Kaoshantun position and the Tashan position. The bombing area on the front line of Liujiatun, which is five kilometers in front, can not only provide artillery support directly to the blocking position, but also attack the enemy's follow-up troops."

When Lan Caiqin heard this, she took her eyes off the map, and then raised her head to look at Nie Mingyu, the artillery commander: "If I ask you, can you hit the target on the Luojiatun line 15 kilometers east of Longquanshan Fortress?"

"We have scouted these areas many times in the early stage, and the relevant coordinates are all on the map." Nie Mingyu took two steps forward and pointed to the map and said, "Teacher, please look, the vertical and horizontal coordinate data on this is the azimuth between various places. .As long as the observer and aimer do a simple calculation, the bombardment parameters can be determined. However, the maximum range of the Type 105 18.2mm field cannon is [-] kilometers. If you want to hit the Luojiatun line, you need to shoot at a high elevation angle, and nothing else."

Lan Caiqin asked with a smile: "Have you calculated the distribution of the coverage area of ​​the impact point of the Type 105 [-]mm heavy artillery?"

Nie Mingyu straightened up: "Report to the commander: the distribution law of the limit range of the Type 105 300mm field cannon is a coverage area with a radius of 50 meters centered on the calculation point! The distribution law within ten kilometers is a coverage area with a radius of 100-[-] meters area."

Lan Caiqin finally nodded with satisfaction: "That's very good. After the meeting, you can ask the observers to calculate the Luojiatun and Dongqingbao lines clearly. Longquanshan Fortress and Crouching Tiger Mountain Fortress are ready for battle, ready to fight at any time! Air defense Even enter the combat state, pay attention to air defense tomorrow morning. I guess the little devil will not be dispatched tonight. The meeting is over!"

At about nine o'clock in the morning on March 1935, 3, Lan Caiqin, accompanied by the battalion commander Deng Jinfa, had just completed the inspection of the three 5mm heavy artillery positions at the main fortress of Yuhuangding, when there was a dull roar in the sky.

"Enemy planes are coming! Deng Jinfa, don't worry about me, hurry up and organize the air defense force to fight!" Lan Caiqin immediately gave an order to her guard battalion: "The air defense company of the guard battalion is ready for all battles, ready to fight! The communication company sticks to it Post, be ready to receive telegrams from the reconnaissance company at any time! The machine gun company is ready to fight and is ready to reinforce the Tashan position at any time!"

Maybe the little devil took this surprise attack very seriously, so nine planes came all at once!It's a pity that the little devil couldn't figure out what was going on here. The nine planes were divided into three formations, one formation rushed towards Jinxi County, and the other circled around the Tashan position.Another formation flew directly westward, and it should have bombed the deserted Suizhong County.

Not long after, three enemy planes began to drop bombs in Jinxi County, and the other three enemy planes also began to repeatedly bomb the Tashan position.

Deng Jinfa saw Lan Caiqin holding up the binoculars to observe the movement of the enemy plane, but he never spoke, so he was a little uncertain: "Master, do you want to fight?"

After all, what happens next, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
