blood feud

Chen Jie quickly called back: "I will lead the guard company to set off tonight, and it is expected to arrive at the front line of Tianhua Mountain in the early morning of the day after tomorrow. More than [-] people from Shao Benliang's department have already crossed Benxi and marched eastward. Your department immediately occupies a key defensive position and builds a position to prevent the enemy from attacking. Large-scale siege. Remember: no one is allowed to climb the main peak of Tianhua Mountain, and anyone who violates the order will be shot!"

After Chen Jie's order was conveyed and Qin Wanyou's third company and Ding Ergen's guard platoon were all excavated, Gao Jingxiang had the opportunity to have a good talk with Wu Zhiguo about the issue of army reorganization:

"Brother Wu, there is something I have to tell you clearly, and at the same time, you have to explain it to the brothers, so that everyone will not feel happy when it happens, and it will go against the original intention."

"Commander Gao, if you have anything to say, just speak up." Wu Zhiguo waved his hand: "Since I am determined to heat the Hehe front army, I will not be selfish at all."

"It's not that serious, haha!" Gao Jingxiang said with a smile: "Our troop is organized as a regiment, so you definitely can't be the regiment leader. Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid the battalion commander is not enough. This One point, I hope you can have a mental preparation."

"Hahaha, I thought you were going to say something, it turned out to be like this!" Wu Zhiguo chuckled: "I have already said before that the Northeast Army Independent Regiment, which is reported to the outside world, is to gather the lost brothers of the Northeast Army .To tell you the truth, I have only one company under my command, and I am the company commander!"

"That row turned out to be 32 people who slowly gathered after our regiment's guard company was disbanded, so we kept one row. In addition, there are three rows, which you saw when we attacked Weiziyu .So, you can dismantle and reorganize it, or keep the current organizational system.”

Gao Jingxiang nodded: "Then there is nothing to say, because we are all from the Northeast Army, and it doesn't matter if we break up or not."

Wu Zhiguo added: "However, my people are very complicated. There are people from the 12th, 15th, 16th, 17th, and 25th brigades. The arms are also very mixed, with infantry accounting for the majority, as well as artillery and cavalry. Oh, By the way, I almost forgot!"

"The 64 people in the third row are all from the Navy, because after the September [-]th Incident, they ran out when the little devils took over the Jinxi County Navy Supplementary Brigade. These people's cannons are used very well, but foot combat is not good. So After I got the mortar and the grenades, I immediately equipped them to the third row."

It was only then that Gao Jingxiang understood why when he saw these attacks on Weiziyu that night, they were obviously trained, but he felt that they were not very coordinated.It turned out that naval soldiers were mixed in, which is no wonder.

Thinking of this, Gao Jingxiang said: "Since this is the case, 64 people from the third row will be drawn out and arranged separately. Two more people will be drawn from the remaining people. Since you don't have horses, we will reorganize into an infantry company with 116 people according to the existing establishment of the independent regiment. , you are still the company commander. Wait until Captain Chen Jie comes over, and then talk about other things, do you think it will work?"

"Okay, what's wrong with that?" Wu Zhiguo nodded and said, "Anyway, it's all about beating devils, so it's convenient."

"You don't understand what I mean!" Gao Jingxiang shook his head and said, "The three platoons of artillery are used well. This is a very difficult talent in the army. We need to strengthen protection. In addition, your three mortars are used for nothing." No. When Commander Chen Jie comes over, he will bring our infantry artillery over."

"Use artillery fire intensively. You saw the effect the night before yesterday. No matter how many little devils, one cannonball will finish the game, don't you think so? As for the transfer of two additional soldiers, the main reason is that this Pianling squad is a group that just came in. The melon egg child, now there is only one veteran who can't discipline him."

Three days later, Chen Jie really rushed to Tianhua Mountain with the guard company and special battalion, and extended a warm welcome to Wu Zhiguo and others.

Then it was finalized: "The infantry battalion was formed, Wu Zhiguo served as the deputy battalion commander, and there was only one company for the time being. The Pianling squad plus three veterans made a total of 31 people, but the two girls still entered the guard company's communication platoon. Nine male soldiers come and form a platoon of 9 men. The infantry battalion has a combat company and a recruit platoon, isn't that great?"

Wu Zhiguo had just been a company commander for two days, and he was promoted to deputy battalion commander as soon as the regimental commander arrived.Chen Jie asked the guard company to draw an oriental horse from the supply platoon to equip Wu Zhiguo, and naturally everyone was happy.

Chen Jie said to Gao Jingxiang again: "The artillery battalion used to have a fixed establishment of three companies, and it still doesn't move now. For the newly added 64 people, you form a direct command platoon and set up an artillery commander to command the battle. This is like an artillery battalion. battalion. The rest of the troops are not moving."

That night, Chen Jie convened a military meeting above the company commander. He first determined the establishment of the infantry battalion, and then reported the changes in the enemy's situation that he saw along the way.

"Brothers, the reason why the cavalry battalion didn't come here is because they were following Shao Benliang's two cavalry regiments. They crossed Xiamatang yesterday and are now stationed at Caohezhang. Wu Guozhi and the others were driven all the way because This time, the little devil will gather all the anti-Japanese armed forces in South Manchuria, and then eat them in one bite!"

"According to the telegram from Zhang Minghan, the commander of the cavalry battalion, they also found several anti-Japanese armed forces along the way. They seemed to have rushed over from Liaoyang. Go out to a company to conduct reconnaissance. As long as there is a chance, we will rescue those anti-Japanese troops."

"Now, a brigade of the little devils, a brigade of the second Korean devils, a brigade of Yu Zhishan, and a cavalry brigade of Shao Benliang, form an arc-shaped encirclement, and those scattered anti-Japanese troops are all in this. Also That is to say, more than [-] people have gathered around our Tianhua Mountain. Therefore, our deployment needs to be adjusted appropriately."

"Wu Zhiguo's company does not have horses, and its mobility is not enough. Therefore, the defense mission of Tongtian Gorge must be completed by this company. The artillery battalion draws out a mortar company as the fire support for the frontal defense. The two infantrymen of the artillery battalion The artillery company is deployed here as a reserve team, using the height difference as a mountain artillery."

"The combat platoons of the special battalion and the guard company are our external mobile forces. Once the information is confirmed, we will attack quickly. Internal defense and external annihilation are our tactics against the enemy this time. The internal defense is under the unified command of Gao Jingxiang , The front-line defensive operations are jointly commanded by Pan Xiongfei, deputy battalion commander of the artillery battalion, and Wu Zhiguo, deputy battalion commander of the infantry battalion."

For the next two days, the enemies on all four sides remained in place, and Chen Jie and the others began to feel strange.

It turned out that Pianling Town and Weiziyu Town were taken over successively. This matter is too serious.There is a notice of "Pingdingshan Revenge Team" in Pianling Town, which is considered to be whereabouts.But the site of Weiziyu was in ruins, and there were no traces left.

The little devil arrested more than a dozen villagers for questioning, and the only news he got was that the enemy's artillery fire was very fierce.This point is confirmed by on-site investigation.

What kind of army is it, and why does it have such powerful firepower?

A powerful enemy suddenly appeared, making this time's "former enemy commander-in-chief" Captain Adachi Gon Rokuro full of headaches.

Anda Quan Liulang, because on the second day after the "September 1931th Incident" (September 9, 19), after Bai Shujie and Huang Xiansheng led a large army to withdraw, they cooperated with the little devil's independent garrison, gendarmerie, and rural soldiers ( More than 300 Fushun defense teams composed of retired soldiers) surrounded the Fushun Public Security Bureau, captured more than [-] policemen who were unwilling to follow Huang Xiansheng, and seized pistols, rifles, small mortars, and countless ammunition. great merit.He was promoted to the independent garrison brigade and served as the captain of the second brigade.

This time the "supreme battle in South Manchuria" was the "encirclement and suppression implementation outline" formulated by Adachi Gonrokuro.The theme of this plan is divided into two parts: the first is to take advantage of the rapid maneuverability of Shao Benliang's Independent Raiders Brigade, start from the east of Jinzhou, and drive all the "anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese elements" in it to the east.

The second part is that Anda Quan Liulang personally led the three brigades to open a big pocket in Weiziyu, Nandianzi, and Lanheyu in advance, waiting for the big fish that were driven to hit them head-on!

If Gao Jingxiang and the others hadn't appeared in time, Wu Zhiguo and the others would probably have been the first fish caught by Anda Quan Liulang!

According to the information sent back by Zhang Minghan, Shao Benliang separated the six battalions of his two regiments, pulled out a 150-kilometer blockade line from south to north, and then moved eastward in parallel.

Shao Benliang called it "comb Lao Linzi's hair"!He himself led a guard battalion in the brigade headquarters to respond in the middle, giving people the feeling that needles can't pierce through, and water can't get in.

1935年4月17日下午04:30左右，陈杰正在地图上苦思冥想，通信排长司徒雄快步进来叫道：“报告：骑兵营张明瀚急电！”

"Read!" Chen Jie didn't lift his head, but grabbed the red and blue pencils to mark the changes of the enemy's situation on the map.

"Shao Benliang's four battalions besieged the Xinkailing line for two days, and are currently narrowing the encirclement. According to our close reconnaissance, nearly [-] people were besieged on the line from Xinkailing to Baojialing. Because the enemy's firepower is too strong , these people have been unable to break through the encirclement."

"According to the investigation, Shao Benliang's headquarters has been moved forward to command near Saimaji. The three companies of our department are temporarily hidden in the Panjiagou line in the southeast of Xinkailing, five kilometers away from Aiyangji. Zhang Minghan."

Chen Jie still didn't raise his head: "Send a power to the commander-in-chief: a brigade of the Japanese army, a brigade of the Korean army, a brigade of Yu Zhishan, and a brigade of Shao Benliang have completed the journey from Fengcheng, Xiamatang, Caohezhang, Nandianzi, Weiziyu to A semi-arc encirclement on the front line of Xinbin. At present, a unit has been trapped in Xinkailing, and the situation is very critical."

"The enemy's intention is very clear. It is to use the natural barrier of the plateau mountains from Tianhua Mountain to Datudingzi to suppress all the sporadic anti-Japanese armed forces in the South Manchuria area in a small space on the north bank of the Yalu River."

"In order to break the enemy's conspiracy, and for the future development of the South Manchurian Independence Group, our department decided to take the initiative to attack. On the front line of Xinkailing, we will give Shao Benliang's troops a hard lesson and tear open a hole for those sporadic anti-Japanese armed forces. Chen Jie. "

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