blood feud

It turned out that in order to successfully complete this mission, the most important thing is to be able to fish in troubled waters where there are piles of little devils, so Chang Bikuan's reconnaissance battalion is all Japanese-style military uniforms, and naturally they are all Japanese-style weapons.

Once this is seen by Zhang Zongheng's 224 regiment soldiers, he will be a "big Japanese little devil" through and through!

Once a fight broke out, the reconnaissance battalion could only be beaten and could not fight back.By that time, even if everyone has three heads and six arms, they will be completely finished.

Chang Bikuan didn't talk nonsense after gathering everyone together: "Now let's talk about the situation. The first is the gun factory in the Dagu Shipyard, and the second is the situation of the Pegasus freighter."

The squad leader of a small unit began to report: "Because there are fights everywhere now, and there is no one in the factory. We have sneaked into the shipyard to see, it is really good! Not only Czech light machine guns, Maxim heavy machine guns , and an improved Baigemen submachine gun with 32 rounds of magazines."

"At noon today, Zhang Zongheng sent one of his companies into the factory, and took away the 36 Czech machine guns that had just been assembled and packed in the workshop. They left without searching deeply at all, and left without even finding the bullets. "

"According to our reconnaissance results, we found three secret warehouses. One is the gunpowder warehouse, the other is the material warehouse, and the other is the finished product warehouse. The other is a gunpowder production line in the workshop, two machine gun production lines and an artillery production line. Zhang Zongheng's people We've taken all the screws out since we left."

"There are a lot of yellow gunpowder and black gunpowder in the gunpowder depot. In addition to a large number of gun barrel steel materials for machine guns and rifles, there are also a batch of 37mm, 75mm, and 105mm gun barrel steel materials in the material depot. The most difficult thing now is that it requires a lot of manpower. Material resources can be moved.”

"According to our preliminary estimates, there are more than 400 Czech light machine guns, more than 200 Maxim heavy machine guns, more than 600 Baigemen submachine guns, more than 3000 2000-shot shell guns, and three types of bullets in the finished product warehouse. There are more than [-] million rounds in stock."

"There are more than 400 tons of imported steel pipes in the material warehouse, and more than one ton of various types of bolt springs. The origin of these raw materials is not simple, and they are German products. There are also a large number of raw materials for making gunpowder, oak and a small amount of mahogany for making gun stocks. .”

Another team Zhang continued: "The Pegasus freighter has been parked at Taohuawu Wharf, which is very close to here. Because the little devil has sealed off the sea, there is no way to leave. In the past half a month, 720 Czech light trucks Machine guns and 350 Maxim heavy machine guns are already on board."

"There are only a few crew members guarding the ship, so it's not difficult to take it down. The most important thing is that in the Dagu River, there are two little devil's gunboats dangling back and forth, firing two shots at Zhang Zongheng's position at every turn. I don't know what it is To aid in the battle, prepare to guard the Pegasus freighter."

Chang Bikuan nodded: "Looking at it now, it's not a bad thing for us because the workers ran away after the full-scale war broke out. As for the transportation issue, that's something that the teacher and the others have considered. Our next task is to get rid of Dagu The little devil's gunboat on the river. What about the rest of the situation in Tanggu?"

"There was a squadron of little devils who confronted Zhang Zongheng across the river, but they never launched an attack. We were worried that the little devils would rush directly into Dagu and then occupy the shipyard." The first squad leader said: "In order to ensure that we secretly transported , it is best to kill the devils in this squadron first."

Chang Bikuan looked at the four company commanders before he said: "More than 100 little devils confronted Zhang Zongheng and the others. Our past two companies had more than 400 people, and then launched a surprise attack. I ordered the fourth company and the third company to attack on the 30th. In the early morning, we went over to carry out this task. The second company defended the shipyard, and at the same time, the large troops came to move things.”

"First company commander, hurry up and secretly send someone out to find the Pegasus cargo ship, get those guards here to watch over it, then open the cabin and prepare to move things. The boss of Chengde has already said that if you can't move things They must all be blown up, and they must not be left to the little devils. Now everyone is going to go, and then we will split up."

After the reconnaissance battalion took action, Wei Chong would naturally not be idle.I buried my head in hiding for more than a year, waiting for today.

根据事先的分工，副师长王三驹带领骑兵团（2480人）、步兵团（2480人）、新兵营（855人+29军的学兵团1700人）一共7500余人，7月29日凌晨出发，隐蔽在张宗衡大沽阵地南面三公里的海边上。

On the side of the reconnaissance battalion, the troops have been divided into two groups: the third company and the fourth company infiltrated into Tanggu, and then raided a squadron of the little devils;

Zhang Zongheng led his 224 regiment, on the one hand, he was eager to rush to the Gegu assembly point, on the other hand, he never expected that a huge army had already appeared in his rear.

On the afternoon of July 7th, the 29th regiment retreated 224 kilometers to the west to Gegu, and a huge open area appeared on the seashore along the Dagu line.

Now that the master had left, Wang Sanju naturally stopped being polite, and immediately ordered the infantry regiment to pull out two companies to immediately seize the defensive position left by Zhang Zongheng and the others, giving the kid the illusion that the defenders had not yet retreated.

At 07:30 that night, leaving the cavalry regiment and recruit battalion waiting for supplies, Wang Sanju led the infantry regiment to rush northward and rushed to Taohuawu to join the reconnaissance battalion.

At about one o'clock in the morning on July 1937, 7, Chang Bikuan personally led the reconnaissance company to the Dagu River and began planning to capture the two gunboats of the little devil.For the entire robbery of the Dagu Shipyard, this is the most critical step.

The original plan was to find wooden boats by the river and start transferring supplies.Now with the Imp's gunboat defense, this plan simply doesn't work.

Capture the little devil's gunboat, create a short-term military vacuum, and then use the two gunboats to transfer supplies in turn. This is the best adjustment plan.

It's really not easy to deal with the little devil's gunboat.Because the gunboat is on the river and keeps moving, you can't get close at all.

Chang Bikuan lay on the riverside and observed with a telescope for more than half an hour, and finally saw a plaster flag of a little devil flying on the Pegasus freighter.From the looks of it, this was a measure taken to worry about the little devils' bombardment.

"Go alone and pull out the plaster flag on the Pegasus freighter for me!"

As soon as the company commander waved his hand, the two soldiers had already left, and then asked in a low voice: "Battle commander, what do you want to do?"

Chang Bikuan also said in a low voice: "What are you doing? Find a way to board the devil's gunboat, otherwise how can you take down the gunboat?"

Twenty minutes later, the plaster flag was brought over.

"Brothers, we are now the search team of the Second Mixed Brigade that just came over. I am the squadron leader. What would be a better name?" Chang Bikuan turned to ask the first company commander: "When you were learning Japanese, do you still remember?" Where did the second mixed brigade come from?"

The company commander blurted out without thinking: "The second mixed brigade of the little devils is composed of part drawn from the first division. Their source of troops is from Tokyo."

"Damn it, my name is Kojima Taro now, the squadron leader of the search team of the Second Mixed Brigade." Chang Bikuan said in a low voice: "Don't make a sound, let the first company commander and I who have the best Japanese speak! Commander, wave the flag at the little devil's gunboat and let them come closer."

"Battalion Commander, you have an officer's knife in your hand. Why did you become the squadron leader again?" The company commander hurriedly shook his head: "It's still the captain of my squadron. You are the senior staff officer of the brigade headquarters, Kojima Taro."

Yilian stood up, grabbed the plaster flag and waved it, and at the same time shouted at the little devil's gunboat: "Come here!" (Hey, come here quickly!) The little gunboat made a big turn, and approached the north bank. A small captain appeared at the bow of the boat and shouted, "あなたはどの部分の?"

The first company commander opened his mouth and scolded: "Baga! Kochira is the senior staff officer of the second mixed brigade, Major Kojima!"

Chang Bikuan, the battalion commander, is now a major, and should not be as knowledgeable as a small shrimp, so he looks very graceful: "Sinda は Xiang こ う scouting, お望いを我々の in the past. ありがとございます!" (We have to go to the opposite side to scout , please send us there. Thank you!) Because the squadrons here all know each other, and the captain of the Devils doesn’t know these people at first glance, but they are all arrogant, and they must have extraordinary backgrounds.Besides, there was a major and a captain in front of him, neither of which I could offend, so I hurriedly bowed: "Hay!"

The springboard was handed up, but Chang Bikuan shook his head: "Ship は shao na す ぎ て, あ な た は あ ち ら の 面思 も 一 微 に 送っ き て, private は!" (One boat can't hold so many people, please let another Come here too, and send us there at once.) There was no major accident, and there was only one squad of little devils on each gunboat.The first company commander, the squadron leader, soon chatted with the squad leader in full swing, and in many ways figured out the situation of the river defense team stationed in the army.Then he made a secret gesture, click click click, all the little devils on the two gunboats had their necks broken.

This is an inland river gunboat of the "Sakura" class of the little devil. It originally only had five crooked light machine guns, but now it has added a Type 5 heavy machine gun and a mortar.The displacement is 30 tons, the draft is 1.6 meters, and the payload is 12 tons.

Driving the two small gunboats to Taohuawu Wharf, Chang Bikuan found that more than 3000 infantry regiments and recruit battalions had crossed the Dagu River to occupy the dock, and had already begun intense work of moving them.That is to say, all the things that can be moved from the Dagu Shipyard were moved to the wharf.

Wang Sanju immediately came over and said: "Chang Bikuan, there are more than 2000 cavalry regiments on the opposite side, plus more than [-] pack horses brought over, and the ants are starting to move. Your reconnaissance battalion is in charge of the outer border, especially to guard against the traitors from East Jidong coming to mess with you." If something goes wrong, you don’t need to take care of the transshipment work here!”

Press here to get busy, let's not mention it for the time being.

It is said that at ten o'clock in the evening on July 7, Wei Chong led the artillery regiment to the preset position, which is the three-kilometer coastline along the Dagu Fort.Because they were worried about the counterattack of the little devil's naval guns, three positions were deployed in advance. On each position, there were three 29mm field cannons of the 105 type with a range of 18 kilometers.

As a division commander, Wei Chong is a layman on how to use heavy artillery.Therefore, Ding Dakui, the artillery regiment commander Bai Shujie equipped him with, came from Chengde along with these nine cannons.

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