Chapter 291 One person and one position
"Teacher Liu, I have appreciated your kindness for the brothers of the security team. But the war is imminent. If you spend such a big deal on my security team, you may also attract revenge on the Japanese artillery fire. Why bother?" Wang Gongyu glared at Zhuang Shisan, who was full of gratitude in his eyes, but he was inertial politeness.
"As for the brothers trapped there, I can only blame them for their bad life. When I, Wang Gongyu, died in battle, I personally apologized to them underground."
That was the trick in the officialdom. Commissioner Wang, who had already become familiar with it, unconsciously played it out, even though he was already very willing to do it.
Liu Yuqing glanced at the somewhat hypocritical local officials in Songjiang, and felt contempt for no reason, but he also knew that this was the current official ecology.
When I sat at Wanggongyu, I was also a fifth-rank official in ancient times, and I was considered a local official. I had to look forward to everything I did, and it was far less direct than the army.
However, in the face of national crisis, the army has become the most important force in the fight against Japan, but we really cannot rely solely on the army to raise food and pay, conscription and other matters, such as these local officials. For example, in Songjiang City, if it were not for the help of this local official, we would probably not have such a strong defense system as it is now.
Soon, the Army Lieutenant General released his displeasure and shook his head slightly: "Commander Wang, you were wrong!"
Facing the two of them with some surprise expressions, Liu Yuqing looked at the back of his guard squad leader running away and said, "I mainly save not only the soldiers of your security team under your Commander Wang. What I want to save is all the robes that dare to fight against the Japanese. If you can abandon your comrades and brothers at will because of your casualties on the battlefield, then who dares to fight shoulder to shoulder with you in the future?
Just in the battle between the security team last night and this morning, we must save those brothers who are still fighting with the Japanese invaders, and we must do whatever we can."
"Thank you, Commander Liu." Wang Gongyu, who has always been elegant and maintained his demeanor, had tears in his eyes. He took the initiative to hold Liu Yuqing's hand and shook it again and again. "With your Commander Liu's words, my Songjiang Security Corps will not be in vain this time. In the future, the 43rd Army headquarters will have something to ask for. My Songjiang Security Corps, no, Songjiang will definitely help you."
At this moment, this old fox who has been in the officialdom for the first time put aside the reserve of the Supreme Chief Executive of Songjiang and spoke the truth.
His thank you was not only because Liu Yuqing wanted to save his soldiers, but because the division commander of the Sichuan Army admitted his security regiment's achievements in this battlefield.
Even the second-rate security battalion commander Zhuang Shisan was crying now. For this security army that had devoted himself to the battle, being recognized by the lieutenant general of the regular army was the greatest praise.
It is far more important than giving out the ocean and promoting the military rank.
Some people say that the army is a furnace, but in fact, the battlefield is the best forging factory.
Only by experiencing the battlefield can you know the significance of giving your life to protect the position. When the robes keep moving away from you, all you have to do is to replace him and stand on his battlefield.
He is dead and you are alive, then continue to live for him until one day reunites somewhere.
Zhuang Shisan is such a commander tempered by the fire of war.
Of course, the Japanese who were still besieging the pagoda did not know that they were actually taken notice by a Chinese lieutenant general. In addition, eight 150 mortars were notified by the Xicheng Command and had aimed at the muzzle here.
According to the order, the two artillery observers were already calculating the coordinates, and the center of the coordinates was Xilin Temple.
Compared with a small, almost worthless battlefield like Xilin Temple, the battlefield in Cangcheng has really entered a white-hot heat.
This time, Guoqian really wanted to turn his Guoqian detachment into a hammer to smash the iron nail thrown by the Chinese on the front line of Kaangcheng.
He used 16 mountain cannons from his Guoqi Detachment, but he also asked the 114th Division for help regardless of his face, and asked him to use 12 105 howitzers to attack Cangcheng.
In preparation for artillery fire alone, 28 artillery large and small caliber thrown more than 500 shells at the small Cangcheng.
When the infantry battle began, four 89 tanks and three 94 armored vehicles were used, almost half of the armored vehicle squadron that came to Jiangnan with the Guoqi Detachment.
In other words, although the infantry used a half-infantry brigade, the Guoqi Detachment almost devoted everything to it, whether it was artillery or armored power.
That doesn't count.
The most crazy thing is that Kunizaki once again used an almost suicide-style infra-cannon coordination of 100 meters.
The artillery fire almost wiped the hair of the Japanese infantry and exploded slightly on the Kurakawa position.
The walls of Cangcheng, which were once five meters high, were cut down half a meter overall, and the gap was not one, two, three or four places, but like a dam that had collapsed, full of holes, and was willing to be swept into the sky by his own artillery fire. It seemed that the Japanese infantry, who had just one big step, could attack the city.
Moreover, the Japanese army attacked from three sides of Cangcheng.
However, bullets were still shot out from the Chinese position where people were almost impossible to survive by artillery fire.
The Japanese army fell in groups before the city wall. Perhaps a few Japanese troops entered the city wall through the gap, but soon, when they were not firmly established, the inverted triangle ambush array composed of light machine guns and submachine guns set up in the city wall to kill the Japanese army with only light weapons around the gap.
They had no way to tear a hole as they imagined and then advance deeper, and finally divide the Chinese defenders in the city and wipe out one by one.
The most typical army tactics of the Japanese, the central government attracts two wings to break through, and sends a small group of troops to cut off the enemy's rear and wait for an opportunity to kill important figures in the enemy. In fact, it is the original version of the movement division and surround tactics that the Chinese army is best at in the future.
But even this original version of the sports tactic is already powerful enough, especially when it still has terrible artillery fire support.
Although the front-line wall of Cangcheng is still in the hands of the Chinese defenders, it is already crumbling.
China and Japan are like two wrestlers fighting in the quagmire. Both sides are already bruised and exhausted, but both sides are still trying their best to persevere. It depends on whoever vents the breath first, and who will be pinned to death by the opponent in the mud and killed.
Under such a brutal tactic of the Japanese army, all the tactics that flashed through Tang Dao's mind were ineffective, which made him think of a battle that broke out on the northern ice field in the next ten years.
The commander of the Fan family led a light infantry regiment to run more than 100 miles a day to block the American cowboys who were armed with teeth on the bare mountains.
They don’t have fortifications like Cangcheng, and they face more artillery and tanks than they do now. How do they defend their positions?
Like the current Japanese, American cowboys rushed upwards under their own artillery fire. The warning post was no longer effective, so take turns to fight.
What is a rotating station? It means that one line is placed on the front line. If this line is all done, then change the line and go up again.
To put it bluntly, this is called taking turns to die.
Tang Dao was forced to use this extremely cruel tactic.
Because, in this battlefield where both sides must fight to the death, there is only one so-called tactic, and more people will see who dare to die.
An infantryman had more than 30 people in a platoon, but he was almost wiped out in 10 minutes.
Those who can be carried off by a stretcher and breathe are the greatest luck.
The young deputy squad leader Qian Dazhu did not cry this time.
Because, he didn't have time to cry.
The gunfire never stopped on the position of the infantry platoon where he was located.
He kept running and shooting.
There was a gun on each battle position, including machine guns, rifles, wrench guns, and grenades, which were also turned off to make it easier for him to pull the strings and then throw them out.
The fierce artillery fire of the Japanese army blocked the infantry line who came to replace them for five minutes. Even the battalion commander Liu Zhenshan, who was personally leading the team to the front line, was ready to use bayonets to rush the Japanese army, who must have entered the city wall fortifications, back.
However, when they rushed into the position, they saw this scene.
The soldiers couldn't help but be stunned.
A soldier ran in the trenches, constantly pounced on the battlefield, fired, and then continued to run before the grenades of the Japanese grenade launcher flew over.
This is why gunfire never stopped on the front line.
And the Japanese army was actually suppressed by this man 30 meters in front of the position.
There were corpses everywhere in the trenches, perhaps because they were bombarded, there was no red, only black.
That's blood, it's military uniform.
The young deputy squad leader who sensed that the reinforcements finally rushed up turned around and turned his head in a hurry. His face, which was so dark that the smoke of gunpowder was only white.
Seeing reinforcements coming up, the young deputy squad leader grinned hard.
He wanted to laugh, but he seemed to cry.
The young top soldier didn't cry, but his battalion commander cried first.
This is all in the way!
