Chapter 62: Meet Again, Aoki Xuanjun
The Russians asked Song Biao to go to Tonghua to suppress the bandits. They really found the right person.
Song Biao was actually not good at suppressing bandits, but too many of his troops were bandits and were born as thieves. His troops were also most familiar with the terrain of Guandong. In the Tonghua area, many caravans and bandit brothers were closed to the terrain conditions in Tonghua.
You can touch it with your eyes.
In the field of marching and fighting, the brothers basically learned from the Russian Far East Army. Song Biao also held a pre-war combat meeting to discuss ideas and ideas.
War is the best military academy. After fighting so many big battles in succession and studying with the Russians all the way, Song Biao already had many good fighters in his army. When Song Biao decided to transfer the more than 6,000 No. 1 troops from Tonghua County to
After all the bandits were killed, Zhang Yahu immediately made a ruthless move that was unanimously praised by the brothers.
This move was indeed very good, and Song Biao decided to do it on the spot.
Subsequently, the army entered Tonghua along the Suzi River. At a place called Tongtiangou, the army was divided into two. Xue Changqing's transportation brigade continued to follow the 3rd Far East Infantry Regiment, the Poltava Cossack Cavalry Regiment, and Song Biao led
His direct troops marched at night and day, passing through Tongtiangou and Xiaodu Ridge, quietly entering Dadu Ridge, and hiding in front of Dadu Ridge to secretly build fortifications.
At the same time, the Russian army was divided into two again at Jindou Gou. The 3rd Far East Infantry Regiment led by Major Kornilov followed the local soldiers along the ravine and secretly entered Xujiagou, while the Cossack Cavalry Regiment
Stationed in Jindugou area.
After both the north and south roads were in place, Lieutenant Colonel Legovich's Poltava Cossack Cavalry Regiment and Xue Changqing's transport brigade drove straight in and headed straight for Tonghua County.
The Japanese Manchurian Army secretly stationed a squadron in Tonghua, all disguised as bandits, but how could they dare to compete with a cavalry regiment with only the strength of a squadron? The more than 6,000 Kanto bandits were even more frightened, saying that they were leaving the city together to fight with the Russians.
The army fought a decisive battle, and before the Japanese army could dig in their positions, the bandits dispersed in one fell swoop.
Because the Cossack Cavalry Regiment and the 3rd Far East Infantry Regiment had appeared in the open, the Kwantung bandits and the Japanese army actually had only one way to go. They could only flee southward along the Chibai Ridge ditch.
As soon as you reach Dadu Ridge, there are more than a dozen ravines extending in all directions. The more you walk, the more chaotic you go, and you will eventually find a way to survive that suits you.
Song Biao chose to set up an ambush in a place called Gangyao on the north side of Dadu Ridge. The ravine road here was only more than two hundred meters wide, with dense pines and cypresses on both sides. He placed twenty machine guns in the old forest, and even the ghosts were stunned.
can not see.
This day is the twentieth day of the first lunar month, and the Lantern Festival has just passed five days ago.
From the Spring Festival to the Lantern Festival, the brothers did not have a very comfortable life. They were either fighting on the battlefield against the Japanese bullets, or they were constantly on the road, traveling sixty miles at night every day.
Last night, Song Biao, Zhao Tingzhu, and Zhang Yahu's team were guarding here. Zhang Yahu led the team to guard in the forest on the west side opposite, Song Biao and Zhao Tingzhu led the team to the north, and the leopard Chen Wu led two
The troops of this squadron are guarding a place called Pine Tree Hole. Once the bandits run back, Brother No. 300 will come out and directly cut off their escape route.
After sleeping in the wild forest for another day, Song Biao felt that his whole body was as cold as sleeping, as uncomfortable as typhoid fever.
Many brothers are similar to him, so the life of the caravan is really not easy. No matter how strong your body is, you cannot survive sleeping in the wild mountains and forests of Guandong for seven or eight days in a row.
The caravan cannot walk continuously. If you walk twice in a row without taking a rest for a month, you will be exhausted.
After breakfast, Song Biao stayed in his position to rest. Li Dayun, who was closely following him, dug a big cat-ear hole specifically for him to rest and shelter from the wind and rain. He sat inside, pondered, and lit a cigarette.
Watching "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu, Li Dayun dozed next to him.
He bought his book "Sun Tzu's Art of War" in Fushun County. Although he had read it before, he had not studied or pondered it carefully. Now he really needs to spend time to study every word in it.
The old county seat of Tonghua County is located in a Sancha Valley, the intersection of three large ravines. It is naturally a dangerous place, but there is not enough room for development. Later, when Tonghua City was built, a new city could only be built.
Zhang Yahu's method was very simple. He deliberately blocked the two roads and forced the bandits to take the south road. He then set up a barrier on the south road to completely defeat them.
After watching for less than half, there was suddenly a noisy sound coming from the distant ravine, the sound of hurried horse hooves was faintly heard, there were bursts of yelling, and even shouts in Japanese.
Bizarre.
Song Biao turned his ears and listened carefully. Li Dayun suddenly woke up and jumped out of the cat's ear hole as soon as he turned over. Zhao Tingzhu also ran over and reported to Song Biao: "Master, they are here, a large and dark group of people.
It’s really no less than six thousand, I think there are at least seven thousand people.”
Song Biao thought for a moment. He really didn't plan to take command personally. It would be best to leave it to Zhao Tingzhu and Zhang Yahu to solve the problem of gaining experience so easily. However, he couldn't help but jump out of the cat's ear hole and stand on the ground.
In front of the trench, use a telescope to look ahead.
In the ravine more than 600 meters ahead, a large group of bandits were running wildly in groups. They carried various weapons, including the Qinglong Yanyue Sword enshrined in the temple, rifles, and blunderbuss, as well as machetes.
At most, almost everyone has one, and there are really not many people who are actually equipped with rifles.
The more than two hundred people running in the middle of the team were special. Although they were all wearing bandit costumes, they had Japanese swords inexplicably on them. They seemed to be ronin. The nearby bandits obviously had better equipment and even had dozens of them.
The horse was carrying a large amount of supplies, and there was actually a person inside carrying a Hotchkiss machine gun.
It's really outrageous.
It's a luxury to have twenty machine guns against such a force.
Song Biao didn't think too much. He put down the telescope and told Zhao Tingzhu: "Do it well."
He just said these four words, and then continued to read in his little cave, grabbed a handful of peanuts, peeled the shells, and ate them one by one. Li Dayun, who was guarding him, was impatient and wanted to rush.
He went up and fired a round, but Li Dahan didn't care much and squatted beside him with his shoulders hunched and continued to doze off.
After waiting for a long time, Zhao Tingzhu finally shouted "Hit". Before he could finish his words, Zhang Yahu had already opened fire. The dense rattling sound of machine guns suddenly rang out in the forest, and the bandits fell to the ground.
.
This is an era of ignorance. Although bandits kill people and steal wealth, they do everything to make a living. Being a beard is also a way to earn a living. Especially those beards in scattered teams. After robbing homes, they still go home as usual.
Continue to farm and raise children.
The world is so cruel.
Amidst the dense waves of gunfire, the bandits fell in a large area. More bandits could hide and hide, but no one dared to resist. The bandits running behind ran back in panic.
But their lives were even worse. They didn't run a few hundred meters and were faced with a hail of bullets again, resulting in even more serious casualties.
It wasn't until more than half of the bandits were killed or wounded that the brothers of the Manchurian Infantry Regiment launched a charge, calling on the bearded men to hand over their guns. Groups of them unloaded their weapons and pressed them to the ground, tying up everything they could.
Song Biao had been fighting big battles all the way. Suddenly faced with such a small formation, he really didn't have much interest. He simply let the brothers perform on their own, which was also a good training opportunity.
He read and ate peanuts leisurely.
Killing is a very cruel thing. If you kill too much, you will become numb, because killing is never the goal. For the goal, non-toxicity is always unfavorable.
The sounds outside gradually calmed down, and from time to time there was a burst of bad laughter. It seemed that the brothers had discovered a lot of interesting things. After a while, Zhao Tingzhu ran back first, ducked in, and laughed with Song Biao:
"Master, what do you think we have seized?"
Song Biao continued to look through his "The Art of War" calmly, and asked casually: "What is there?"
Zhao Tingzhu laughed and said: "You can't imagine that we have seized so many things, including gold, silver, ruble notes, Japanese yen notes, jewelry, land deeds, field deeds, and just Japanese yen notes.
There are more than a dozen sacks of rubles and foreign dollars, and I estimate there are at least more than two million. The most outrageous thing is that we captured a person, who I think you know."
Song Biao couldn't help but become a little curious. He put down the book and asked: "Who is worthy of you being so secretive?"
Zhao Tingzhu still laughed loudly and said: "Master, do you still remember that before we left Hunjiang, a Japanese colonel came to see you, the one who had lunch with you? He wrote to us some time ago, thinking
The one who asked us to follow him?"
Song Biao was very surprised and said: "No, you caught that old guy Xuanchun Aoki?"
Zhao Tingzhu smiled and said: "Yes, I caught him. The old guy was dressed like a bandit. I almost didn't recognize him. But it turned out that guy Li Fugui had sharp eyes and pulled him out of the crowd. I didn't pay attention at the time.
By the time we arrived, Li Fugui had already gone up and punched him twice, and his eyes were bruised."
Song Biao was really speechless. He really couldn't figure out why a Japanese commander like Nobuzumi Aoki wanted to go to this muddy pond in Tonghua County. He could only sigh and said: "You guys really don't understand the rules. How can a great commander use old punches?"
?”
Zhao Tingzhu chuckled and said: "We have even beaten and killed Japanese major generals. What the hell is a humble general? Boss, you are always talking sarcastically with your brothers and teasing us?"
Song Biao also chuckled and said, "Please come over."
Zhao Tingzhu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll invite him over right away."
As soon as Zhao Tingzhu left, Song Biao ordered Li Dayun: "Go, take the Japanese sword we captured on the battlefield, find a rag, and I will wipe it."
Li Dayun was puzzled and said: "Master, you are really confusing me. The number of Japanese swords we seized must be hundreds, right?"
Song Biao hit him on the head with a book and said: "The one I collected."
Li Dayun suddenly realized it and hurriedly jumped out of the cat's ear hole to find his luggage.
