Chapter 1 Soldiers and civilians made sacrifices during the Anti-Japanese War(2/2)

When Li Yunlong heard the oral order, he had a rebellious mentality: "Retreat? The bayonets of the Sakata Regiment are on my nose. It's a shame they can think of retreating now.

"It's a breakout anyway, where will it be different when we exit?"

Zhang Dabiao, who was wiping his machete at the side, happened to see the command sent by the communications soldier and Li Yunlong's reaction, and analyzed: "Captain, the direction of Yujialing is the weak point of the Japanese encirclement. You will have greater confidence in breaking out from there."

Li Yunlong turned his face with an expression of hatred: "What do you know? Hey! As soon as we retreat, this bastard Sakata will definitely come forward.

"At that time we will be even more passive." After that, he turned to the correspondent who was waiting for a reply and said loudly: "Correspondent, report to the brigade headquarters: Just say that the new regiment is already engaged with the enemy in front, and there is nothing we can do.

Withdraw from the battle.

"In order to protect the brothers' troops from successfully breaking out of the encirclement, Li Yunlong, the leader of the new regiment, is determined to lead the entire regiment to attack the enemy, defeat the Bantian regiment, and break out of the encirclement from the front."

Zhang Dabiao saw Li Yunlong telling lies with his eyes open, and couldn't bear that he would be punished for disobeying orders on the battlefield, so he tried to persuade him: "Captain, what you said makes sense. But... this is disobeying the orders of your superiors."

Li Yunlong listened, but knowing the situation of the war, he decided to carry out the original plan. He turned his head, straightened his face and loudly called the name of the first battalion commander: "Zhang Dabiao!"

Zhang Dabiao subconsciously answered: "Yes."

Li Yunlong took on the posture of a regiment leader and gave the order: "Stand at attention."

Zhang Dabiao heard the command and stood up straight, waiting for further instructions from Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong pursed his lips and said to the first battalion commander with a determined expression: "Let me ask you a question: 'Who is the leader of the new regiment?'"

When Zhang Dabiao heard this, he felt frustrated and understood that Li Yunlong had to bear the responsibility of disobeying his superiors' orders. He closed his eyes slightly and replied in a deep voice: "Li Yunlong."

Li Yunlong was dissatisfied with his subordinate's expression and reply. He stared at Zhang Dabiao and said sternly: "Louder!"

Zhang Dabiao looked at Li Yunlong and replied loudly: "Report! The leader of the new regiment is Li Yunlong! Zhang Dabiao, commander of the first battalion, has finished his answer."

Li Yunlong was satisfied now, and believed that his brave general understood what he meant, and said: "Execute the order!"

The commander of the first battalion claimed that he was continuing to carry out the offensive order of the regiment commander.

…………

At the command post of the 3rd Regiment of the Shengyang Army, Lieutenant Colonel Uratomo inspected the offensive position and suggested to the military commander that the 3rd Battalion should be dispatched to undertake the new round of offensive that was about to begin.

Captain Sakata paid attention to the military intelligence he had received previously, and combined with the progress of the previous battle, determined that the main force of the 129th Division was on the opposite side. When issuing the attack order, he pressed on the Fifth Group, which had suffered a lot in the previous attack, to provide support troops to cooperate with the attack.<

/p>

The Shengyang Army began to attack, and the heavy machine guns with a longer range on the offensive position began to conduct fire tests on the opposite position. The captain of the third brigade sent two teams forward to conduct fire reconnaissance.

The invading troops formed groups of two, forming three or four skirmish lines, and walked out of the attack assembly area with rifles in hand.

…………

At the front of the new regiment's defensive position, the commandos, led by the first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao, were about to launch a counterattack.

The regiment leader Li Yunlong stood behind a sandbag parapet at the assembly area and was doing the final pre-war mobilization. He loudly said in an inflammatory tone: "Brothers! They say that a kid can only fight with a bayonet twice, but I don't believe this evil.
p>

"We have two shoulders carrying one head, who is afraid of whom? Ah! We, the new group, were not frightened, not to mention a few little devils. Even if the Lord of Hell came, I would have to pull off some of his beards.

"As he spoke, he raised the machete in his hand, "I told you, we meet on a narrow road..."

"The brave wins!" The commandos were obviously aroused. They raised their machetes and shouted loudly to encourage themselves.

After Li Yunlong's mobilization was completed, his morale was high for a while, and he hurriedly shouted: "Brothers, charge!"

"Charge! Charge!" Zhang Dabiao, commander of the first battalion, commanded the commando to launch a countercharge against the enemy's attacking troops. The bugler blew the charge horn at the right time.

The soldiers who were responsible for pulling out landmines on the defensive position saw the invading soldiers rushing up the mountain road and quickly fired the pre-planted defensive mines to inflict certain damage on the enemy. When the commandos saw that the enemy soldiers were injured, they stepped forward as fast as two feet.

Three points, I want to pick up a soft persimmon and squeeze it.

Soldiers in blue-gray military uniforms and khaki-colored military uniforms rushed out of their positions to fight for their lives. I cut you with a knife, and you stabbed me with a gun. Every minute and every second, there were soldiers on both sides of the battlefield with red bayonets because they were stabbed in vital parts or

My hands and feet were cut and I lost mobility.

Soldiers with knives and ragged clothes and bloody swords became red-eyed when they saw people in uniforms with different colors from their own, holding rifles with bayonets, clenching the machete in their hands to greet the target, chopping or stabbing until the opponent stopped.

Until you move again.

Soldiers in blue and gray military uniforms worked in groups of three and five in back, killing skirmishers in groups of two in khaki military uniforms in their attack path. Taking advantage of the enemy's follow-up troops not following up, they broke into the offensive position in one fell swoop.

The commandos organized a defense on the spot and temporarily moved their position to the enemy's position. Seeing that the tactical goal was achieved, the regiment leader Li Yunlong quickly organized a mortar team that followed the commando's actions to find a location with suitable vision and range, and prepared to bombard the enemy.

Command post.

The 11th-year-old direct-fire infantry gun is a light mortar with a caliber of 70 mm, a projectile of 2.5 kilograms, and a maximum range of 1,550 meters. Because the gun weighs only 63 kilograms, it is easy to carry and deploy.

One of the main firepower of infantry.

The artillery squad quickly lifted the mortar floor to the temporary flattened artillery position. After adjusting the shooting elevation, the main shooter Wang Chengzhu raised his right arm and used the eye-jumping method to confirm the range before launching at the target command post.

Li Yunlong was anxious, fearing that the enemy commander would see through his attack target and leave the command post to escape danger. He couldn't help but urge: "Hurry up!"

Wang Chengzhu did not dare to neglect, so he quickly took the cannonball and put it into the mouth of the barrel, let go, and then leaned down and lowered his head to avoid accidental injury.

With a bang, the smoke from the mortar muzzle dispersed. With a bang, two radio antenna poles about three people high on the cliff in the distance were blown up.

When Li Yunlong saw that he had not hit his original target, he couldn't help but became anxious and yelled: "Zhuli, you hit it crookedly, the headquarters is below."

Wang Chengzhu pushed the mortar back to the firing position, took a deep breath and re-aimed, and once again used the eye-tap method to confirm the target distance. After fine-tuning the firing angle, he took the last grenade from the deputy shooter and put it into the mortar barrel.

Let go and take a step back, for fear of affecting accuracy.

With a bang, gunpowder smoke rose, and the cold wind of late winter and early spring in Jinzhong blew the smoke curling from the mouth of the gun barrel. With a bang, the tent near the command post was bombed. Lieutenant Colonel Uratomo threw himself at the regiment leader, trying to use his body to block the fatal blow from his superiors.

Shrapnel flying.

Seeing the collapse of the tent in the distance, Li Yunlong couldn't help but praise: "The pillars are well built!"

Wang Chengzhu saw a burst of smoke and dust at the target, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "Did you hit it?"

When I heard the leader's praise, I was excited for a moment and stood up and shouted: "It's a hit!"

At this moment, the enemy's heavy machine gun suppressive fire swept across, and Wang Chengzhu, who was standing up, was shot several times in the chest and fell backwards.

Li Yunlong turned from joy to surprise, and cried out sadly: "Zilla!" He wanted to check the injuries of his subordinates, but at this time, the bombardment of the enemy's headquarters had been successful, the enemy's command failed, and the fighter plane was fleeting.

He couldn't help but call the health workers to investigate Wang Chengzhu's injuries. He left the artillery squad to collect the weapons and wounded, and called on the commandos and other breakout soldiers who came out of the defensive position to continue the frontal breakout: "Brothers, charge!"

Rush through the enemy's echelon positions and arrive at the bombed command post.

Looking at the corpses on the ground that were killed by the bombing, Li Yunlong asked Zhang Dabiao: "Dabiao, look, how many big fish have been caught in this net?"

Zhang Dabiao looked at the shoulder insignia on the corpse's khaki military uniform and replied: "The regiment leader really caught a big fish. There is a colonel, two lieutenants, and a major. This must be Sakata's headquarters."

Li Yunlong burst out laughing: "That's great, I killed the headquarters of a regiment with one shot. Go back, brigade commander, don't even think of shooting me.

"Besides, why would he want to shoot me? He has to buy me a drink!"

While Zhang Dabiao organized soldiers to clean up the loot in the bombed command post, he persuaded Li Yunlong: "Commander, how about a breakout?"

Li Yunlong heard this and issued an attack order on the spot: "Continue to attack and fight out!"

The New Regiment rushed forward and formed an encirclement, covering the division headquarters and the field hospital and moving to defend on the spot. During this period, there were many casualties. In the frontal breakout, there were countless injuries and sacrifices. The guard of the New Regiment leader used cluster grenades and

His young life opened up the enemy's heavy machine gun positions that blocked the way for his comrades-in-arms, and he lay forever in the bleak cold wind of February.
