blood feud

At about eleven o'clock in the evening on April 1935, 4, Chen Jie's interspersed troops had reached Jialazi, about 19 kilometers north of Xinkailing.

After four hours of rapid march, we could only take a short break.If the soldiers and horses are out of strength, nothing can be done next.

Taking advantage of everyone's rest, Chen Jie approached Li Bozhou and asked, "It's been a while since the pioneer company opened the way ahead, is there any news?"

"Half an hour ago, news came back." Li Bozhou leaned into Chen Jie's ear and said, "On the Majiagou and Huanggou lines less than seven kilometers south of us, there are two enemy cavalry battalions. It seems that , Their main task is to block the passage for the anti-Japanese elements on Xinkailing to escape north."

At this time, Situ Xiong, the communications platoon leader, came over and said softly: "Regimental Commander, Zhang Minghan of the Cavalry Battalion sent an urgent message: They have rushed to the south of Beiweizi five kilometers ahead of time to hide, and they are going to arrive at Beiweizi at around one o'clock in the morning. However, They found a battalion in Baojialing to the southwest of Xinkailing, and a battalion in Wudao Temple. In addition, when they set off, a battalion of cavalry had already appeared in Aiyangji."

Chen Jie compared these two changes in the enemy's situation with the "map" in his brain, and couldn't help saying to himself: "It seems that Shao Benliang is preparing to launch the final attack, and the time should be around noon tomorrow."

Thinking of this, Chen Jie said in a low voice: "Situ Xiong, immediately send a power to Zhang Minghan: Order, your department immediately rush to the line of Beiweizi, and then draw a company to deploy on the line of Xiaoxigou and Beimiao Village to block the enemies of Wudaomiao." Return to the channel for aiding the horse race. At the same time, send scouts to conduct a final confirmation reconnaissance on the horse race, and then report the reconnaissance results immediately!"

After Situ Xiong left, Chen Jie said to Li Bozhou again: "Order the troops to set off immediately and arrive at the destination around one o'clock in the morning. Remember, when you pass through Sujialing, you also take out a company to fight on the line between Caojiabao and Miaogou. , blocking the passage for the enemies of Majiagou to come back to aid the Saimaji. Today I will give Shao Benliang a 'general's cart', and eat two horses by the way!"

At 01:30 in the morning, Chen Jie led two companies of the special battalion and a company of guards to the line of Lishugou, three kilometers northwest of Saimaji.There was a complete silence all over the field, which made people feel bored and panicked.

Not long after, Zhang Minghan sent the final enemy report: "Shao Benliang's temporary headquarters in Saimaji has only one company, but there is a battalion in Xiaodongdianzi, one kilometer northeast of Saimaji, and there is a battalion in Poplar Forest, about one kilometer south of Saimaji. One battalion. At present, the enemy has entered a rest period, and there is no other movement on the front line of Saima Town."

Time waits for no one, and Chen Jie immediately said: "Order: The two companies of the cavalry battalion will launch a surprise attack on a cavalry battalion in Yang Mulin, the enemy in front of us, at 02:30 in the morning. The attack must be fierce and the attack must be firm! After defeating the enemy, one company pursued in the direction of Saima Town, and the other company rushed to reinforce Xiaoxigou and Beimiao Village."

"The two companies of the special battalion launched a surprise attack on a battalion in Xiaodongdianzi at 02:30 in the morning, using intensive firepower to directly defeat this group of enemies and completely destroy their will to resist. Then the troops were divided into two groups, one company Move closer to Saimaji, and another company will reinforce the Caojiabao and Miaogou line."

Chen Jie didn't pause, and immediately said to Ma Chongde: "Once the northeast and south directions start, you lead the two combat platoons of the guard company straight into the horse racing market, bombard Shao Benliang's cavalry company with mortars, and then launch an attack on his temporary headquarters. .I led the communication platoon to follow up, and then my temporary headquarters will be set up in Saimaji.”

"Damn it, it's just a bunch of bandits, and they are so arrogant after taking refuge in the little devil! I'm going to use two battalions to destroy his five battalions today! What kind of shit is Nanman invincible? I've never heard of it! Is it stronger than the 13th regiment of the Little Devil's Sixth Division? Ball!"

"Remember all of you, all the bandits under Shao Benliang, I don't want a single prisoner, all the dog's heads will be cut off! Damn it, Shao Benliang joined the enemy in Beipiao. I wanted to settle accounts with him many years ago. If I don't teach this bastard a lesson today, I really want to turn the world upside down!"

Li Bozhou and Ma Chongde saw that Chen Jie had spoken well just now, and they didn't know why they lost their temper suddenly. They were so frightened that they trembled, and they dared not say anything at all.

It turned out that Bai Shujie's previous telegram specifically "was superfluous" in the back, emphasizing Shao Benliang's strength, and added a title of "Nanman Invincible" to Shao Benliang.

Since seeing that telegram, Chen Jie has been holding back his anger.

Nanman invincible?Who is this talking about?

Back then, I followed the leader of the detachment across the entire South Manchurian area, and I never met an opponent.This hasn't been gone for a few days, how come "Nanman Invincible" appeared in the blink of an eye, and he was also a bandit leader who took refuge in the little devil?

Now that I, Chen Jie, have arrived in Nanman, how could there be another "Nanman Invincible"!

The so-called "one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers", the more Chen Jie thought about it, the angrier he became, and the angrier he became, the more he hated Shao Benliang.Naturally, Li Bozhou and Ma Chongde would not know about his unknown fire.

Bai Shujie is well aware of the personalities of the generals under him.

Just like Hou Zide, Chen Jie, Xia Enze, and Cui San'er, it's better to be a general than to be a general.Even if you say that the enemy is invincible, the more powerful the better.Not only will they not be afraid, but they will definitely bump into it and compete with "Invincible Under Heaven"!

If it was Zhang Xiang, Cheng Shijie, Han Qingfen, Lan Caiqin and other calm personalities, Bai Shujie would definitely put it another way.

On the one hand, Bai Shujie was worried about Chen Jie's lack of troops. If he couldn't rush and fight, it would be difficult to quickly open up the situation, and if he didn't do it well, he would fall into a passive position.

On the other hand, he hated Shao Benliang, a die-hard traitor!Ever since this bastard took refuge in the little devil, he has become so arrogant that he once specifically opposed General Yang Jingyu!He also openly declared: "With me, Shao Benliang, there would be no Yang Jingyu!"

It's really rare for a bastard who has forgotten his ancestors to be as arrogant as Shao Benliang!

Liu Dashuai said: "When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!"

Bai Shujie deliberately tampered with Shao Benliang's original words, just to arouse Chen Jie's determination to fight to the death, and teach Shao Benliang a lesson that will never be erased in his life!

For an environment like high mountains and big valleys, the anti-Japanese armed forces in various places are not afraid of the little devils' encirclement and suppression at all.Yan Yue, the acting head of the Tenth Division of the Little Devil, once lamented: "Little Manchukuo, big Zhao Shangzhi!"

At that time, General Zhao Shangzhi had no more than 400 men.Yan Yue led two infantry regiments with more than 1000 people to launch six encirclement and suppression campaigns. As a result, General Zhao Shangzhi killed more than [-] people successively!

The worst thing is bandits like Shao Benliang.They have rich experience in drilling old forests and are the biggest enemy of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces.

Without these bandits, the Anti-Union League would not be in a desperate situation.Without a large number of traitors appearing, it is impossible for Yang Jingyu, Zhao Shangzhi, and Zhao Yiman to be killed in their young years.

Seeing that Chen Jie had no other orders, Li Bozhou and Ma Chongde left quietly, then reorganized their troops and conducted the final inspection before the battle.

Each company of Li Bozhou's special battalion has a machine gun, plus the guard platoon has a total of 90 crooked machine guns, and 12 more were strengthened earlier.

The first company blocked the enemy on the front line of Caojiabao, so Li Bozhou distributed the strengthened machine guns to the first company with 6 machine guns, and the second and third companies respectively strengthened 3 machine guns to become 30 machine guns in each company.

Now the two companies are going to raid the enemy's cavalry battalion and defeat the enemy in one face-to-face, so Li Bozhou has to reorganize the two companies for battle.

The six platoons were divided into three combat clusters, each cluster led by 10 machine guns, launching surprise attacks from three directions.

At around 01:30 in the morning, all the horses in the special battalion had wrapped their hooves and put on their bridles to prevent the horses from calling out in the middle. Then the three groups set off separately and quietly touched their starting positions.Li Bozhou led his guard platoon to take a step back, this is the last reserve team.

Less than two kilometers east from a ravine crossed by Saimaji is Xiaodongdianzi.After crossing Xiaodongdianzi and continuing to the east for five kilometers, there is a series of blocking positions - Caojiabao.

Li Bozhou led the guard platoon to insert between Saimaji and Xiaodongdianzi to prevent the enemy from breaking through the attack line and entering Saimaji.

The specific command of the special battalion raid was the deputy battalion commander Zheng Zhikuan. He led two platoons to form the first cluster, blocking the passage between Xiaodongdianzi and Saimaji, and formed a double insurance with Li Bozhou behind.

Dong Dazhu, the commander of the second company, led two platoons to attack from the northwest; Miao Xintun, the commander of the third company, led two platoons around to the east of Xiaodongdianzi, blocking the enemy's passage to the east to attack the blocking position of the company.

This is Li Bozhou's attack formation of "blocking the head, pinching the tail, and hitting the waist".The first shot in the battle was fired by the second company commander Dong Dazhu who hit the waist.Then, taking advantage of the enemy's confusion, he launched an attack from both the head and the tail at the same time, making it hard for the enemy to look at the head and tail.

Dong Dazhu turned out to be the cavalry platoon leader of the Guards Battalion of the Guards Division.Now leading two platoons of 76 people is the same as his original platoon, so there is nothing uncomfortable in commanding.

"Brothers are less than 10 minutes away from launching an attack. Check the 6 grenadiers." Dong Dazhu summoned the two platoon leaders and whispered: "We mainly rely on the range of light machine guns to launch attacks. The submachine guns are responsible for protecting the two flanks during the melee, covering the machine gunners to change the magazine. The grenadiers perform the first round of strikes. After the troops charge, they use the pistols to take the rear. Check now and get ready to fight!"

The grenadier is the leader of the attack, but it is also the army in the rear.So the 12 soldiers led their horses to move forward slowly, and then stopped at the bend of a ravine.It is only about 80 meters away from the dark village in front of us, which happens to be the best strike distance for grenade launchers.

The 6 soldiers adjusted the shooting angles of the 6 grenades, held the grenades with their left hands, and pulled the ignition hook with their right hands.The other 6 soldiers had already loaded the grenade, and at the same time prepared another grenade in their hands.In other words, in the blink of an eye, there are two rounds of bombing.When the big army launches a charge, go to the third round.Then immediately put away the grenade and drew the pistol to the rear.

It was impossible for Dong Dazhu to care about how the soldiers were preparing to launch grenades, because his eyes were fixed on the watch with the faint night light.

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