Chapter 7 7 [Pre-war meeting]

In August 1940, the Eighth Route Army organized a three-and-a-half-month Hundred Regiment Campaign and achieved extraordinary results.

Rails, bridges, tunnels, water towers, stations, etc. on the Zhengtai Railway Line were damaged.The Pinghan, Tongpu (northern section), Shide, Beining railways and main highways were also cut off; all transportation lines in North China were paralyzed.

In the Battle of Lailing, the 129th Division mainly carried out the Yuliao Battle, and the 120th Division mainly attacked Tongpu Road.In these battles, the Eighth Route Army uprooted many Japanese and puppet strongholds and dealt heavy blows to the enemy.

The first two stages achieved good results, but then they entered the third stage to counterattack the Japanese and puppet troops' retaliatory sweeps.

Beginning on October 10, the Japanese army mobilized tens of thousands of troops to carry out retaliatory raids, and carried out the inhumane "three alls" policy against the people in the base areas, in an attempt to destroy the living conditions of the People's Route Army in the base areas.

All the people in the base area, regardless of men, women, old or young, were killed, their houses were burned, all food was looted or burned, even pots and bowls were smashed, and poison was poured into every well.

Because Heshun was the headquarters of the 129th Division during the Hundred Regiments War, the Japanese army burned down the village five times during the "mopping up" campaign.In Majiazhuang, more than 290 ordinary people were forced into a large house by the Japanese army and burned alive;
More than 400 people in Hanhong Town who were forced to attend a meeting in the temple were burned alive by the Japanese army; the Japanese army killed more than 5090 people in Qinxian County; more than 12 shi of grain in Taiyue District were turned into ashes, and countless villages were turned into ashes. into scorched earth.

The group of Japs who attacked the arsenal and wounded soldiers' hospital was the Yamazaki Brigade of the 29th Regiment of the 12th Brigade and the 500th Infantry Battalion of the Japanese Army. The entire brigade had more than [-] people.

They were one of the troops that participated in this raid. They burned, killed and looted along the way, harming several villages and brutally killing hundreds of unarmed ordinary people.

This time, they accidentally passed through the dangerous sky, broke into the base area, and launched the raid.

And the company commander who guarded the sky, because he was afraid that the enemy would not fire a single shot, causing the base area to suffer huge losses, was shot dead for the crime of fleeing.

The boss was very angry about this and said in one sentence: "Get rid of this son of a bitch Yamazaki Brigade!"

Even when the political commissar came back from the meeting with the brigade commander, the fighting spirit he preached was the same sentence: Kill the son-of-a-bitch Yamazaki Brigade.

The divisions of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army and the divisions of the First Death Column gathered from all directions to form two attack groups on the left and right, and surrounded the Japanese Yamazaki Brigade on the Lijiapo Heights, and the battle began.

However, this matter had nothing to do with Li Yunlong's independent regiment. His regiment was regarded by the brigade commander as a reserve team, and this club was swearing and grinding around in the regiment command post, like a hungry old wolf baring its teeth.

Needless to say, he was bound to quarrel with the commissar again.The people in the regiment headquarters, from the staff officers to the grooms, all cleverly hid out, and no one wanted to suffer from this innocent disaster.

Yuan Pengfei was not worried that there would be no battle. He had watched this battle ten times and was familiar with the overall direction.Cheng Xiazi of the [-]nd Regiment fought meticulously without any tricks, and the same was true for other friendly regiments.

They would lie there and call for a charge. The 3600nd Regiment, one company at a time, charged down eight times, and one regiment was half disabled.The other fraternal regiments also suffered more than half of the casualties, and in the end they had to go out from the independent regiment, use [-] grenades to perform an air baptism, and then use hand-to-hand combat to teach the devils to be human.

However, the film and television drama did not explain how many casualties the independent regiment suffered, but it was certainly not as easy as the anti-Japanese drama said.Killing one thousand enemies will result in eight hundred losses for oneself. The Japanese are not lambs to be slaughtered, and their death will drag many people down.

Except for the sick ones, there are 97 of them who can go to the battlefield in a row. After this battle, I don't know how many people will be left.

The time was too short, and there were only two things Yuan Pengfei could do.On the one hand, the soldiers sharpened their bayonets and prepared for hand-to-hand combat.

On the other hand, let the cooking team burn the stove in advance and cook a hot meal to replenish the soldiers' strength. You must have the strength to kill the Japanese!

If you don't use it if you have such good conditions, it will become invalid if it expires.

About five o'clock in the afternoon, eight hours into the battle, Yuan Pengfei got the order to go to the regiment headquarters for a meeting. It was finally the independent regiment's turn to take the field.The cadres of each battalion and company were crowded into a small room, sitting on long benches and listening to Li Yunlong's meeting with them.

The terrain of Lijiapo is somewhat peculiar. The top of the highland is a flat round platform.As a rule, the position of the defending side's fortifications should be built on the ridgeline of the hillside platform, so that the attacking side can have a clear view of the dynamics of the attacking side, and it is also convenient to display firepower from a high position.

But that old boy Yamasaki built the ring fortifications in the center of a flat circular platform on the high ground. The attacking troops could not see the defenders down the slope, so direct firepower would be ineffective, and there was very little indirect firepower such as Eighth Route Army mortars.

The attacking troops had just rushed up the steep slope, and as soon as they showed their heads, they were immediately knocked down by Japanese snipers.

Li Yunlong had already heard from a battalion commander of the evacuated brother army that the edge of the hillside was about 80 meters away from the circular fortification, and the grenade would definitely not go in if it was thrown directly, otherwise it would not be their turn.

At the combat meeting, a classic scene occurred again.

Li Yunlong: "Looking at the terrain, it is impossible for the entire regiment of more than 1000 people to deploy. If companies attack one by one, it will become a 'refueling tactic'. This is a taboo for military strategists, and I will not do it Stupid thing, I want to shorten this impact distance."

The first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao's eyes lit up and he said: "Commander, you mean to dig forward using earthworks?"

Li Yunlong smiled at Zhang Dabiao: "Your brain is quite good. There are 360 ​​people in your battalion. I will give all the grenades of the whole regiment to your battalion. Each person has 10 grenades. How much is that!
3600 bullets, all the troops moved down the slope, and no one was allowed to show their head. His grandma's, the little devil's marksmanship is not bad, so I won't get into this bad luck.

The troops moved forward in parallel using earthwork methods. They only needed to dig 50 meters. For the remaining 30 meters, even a woman could throw a grenade into the ring fortifications.

As soon as the signal flare goes off here, all the grenades in the first battalion must be thrown out to me within 2 minutes.Hey, 3600 grenades are enough for that boy Yamazaki to drink a pot.

Li Yunlong said to Shen Quan, the commander of the second battalion: "All the 20 light machine guns in the regiment belong to your second battalion. The machine gunners are all incorporated into the first commando team. The machine guns are hung on the chest and used as submachine guns.

As soon as the sound of the grenade explosion stopped, he rushed up immediately. Twenty machine guns fired at the same time. "

Li Yunlong's explanation was very exciting. Yuan Pengfei sat down and listened with excitement, and felt eager to try. He wished that he could participate in the battle now and witness the victory of this war.

Li Yunlong finished his explanation, looked around at all the personnel, and gave a death order: "No one is left behind from the independent group. All of them will participate in the attack and prepare for hand-to-hand combat. Remember, when I see that boy Yamazaki, no one is allowed to shoot me. I'm going to chop him alive. Let's get ready!"

"Yes."

The people took orders and went down.

On the way back to Lianli, Yuan Pengfei started to have a headache again when he thought about specific things.The regimental commander's order was that no one in the regiment should be left behind and all of them should participate in the battle, but there were still ten sick people in the company!
Although their bodies can't be said to be unable to move at all, compared with healthy people, there is a huge gap in terms of physical fitness and mentality.

He had reason to believe that these warriors were [-]% more likely to be injured or killed in hand-to-hand combat than healthy warriors.

Scratching his head, Yuan Pengfei turned around and went to the battalion headquarters, throwing this problem to the battalion commander Zhang Dabiao.

The battalion headquarters was also in chaos at this moment. The second battalion commander sent someone to borrow the machine gun. The soldiers counted the grenades and put them in the basket, ready for transportation.Others are preparing shovels, sacks and other tools for later soil work.

Zhang Dabiao was having a headache from being annoyed. After hearing Yuan Pengfei explain his purpose, his mind became even more confused.

He glared fiercely and said, "You boy, the regiment leader has spoken, how dare you disobey me?"

Yuan Pengfei was shocked immediately, "Battle Commander, how dare I! Our whole regiment is only the commander who dares to disobey orders, who dares to disobey his orders!"

Zhang Dabiao was immediately amused. He had followed Li Yunlong for the longest time and knew the old leader best.This was not the first time he had disobeyed orders. He had been dismissed from the position of captain four times. He had disobeyed orders so many times that he could not even count.

However, this thing only allowed the state officials to set fires, and the people were not allowed to light lamps.Throughout the group, Li Yunlong was the only one who had the right to scold others, and no one else had the right to scold him.Similarly, among the whole group, only Li Yunlong dared to disobey orders, and the others really did not dare to disobey his orders.

Or Zhang Dabiao has a flexible mind!After just laughing, he came up with an idea: "You kid, don't be stubborn, the whole group will participate in hand-to-hand combat. That's the leader's order.

However, you can put those sick soldiers at the back, and after the people in front charge, they will charge behind.Neither hors de combat nor unfair to them. "

"Oh, thank you battalion commander, thank you battalion commander!"

Yuan Pengfei raised his eyebrows and thanked happily.

He really didn't think of such a flexible method, he thought he was stupid in reading.

The Yamazaki Brigade has been attacked all day, and now it has suffered more than half of its casualties, and it is only short of the final thunderbolt.The wounded and sick soldiers are placed last, even if they participate in hand-to-hand combat, they don't need to work hard.

Zhang Dabiao looked at his happy look and put on a serious face, "That's what we did, but don't be too proud of yourself. The regiment commander bet his head with the brigade commander. If you dare to do it, I won't die." If so, I’ll take care of you first.”

Yuan Pengfei straightened his waist, patted his chest and promised impassionedly: "Battle Commander, you don't need to shoot me. Even if I die, I will die on Lijiapo. No one from the third company will leave the battle alive."
