Chapter 1141 Battle of Qingshiyan (4)
September 11th!
At the moment when Qingshiyan is still rumbling with gunfire!
A special meeting is also being held at the Dakouzi Town resident of the Si Xing Tuan.
However, there were many people attending the meeting. All the technicians from the arsenal and the skilled workers trained in the past half year, as well as all the militia troops except the police, were all present.
As the highest-ranking military officers currently stationed in the Four Lines Regiment, Lao Tantai and Teacher Xiao He were both standing on the high platform at the main training ground of the Four Lines Regiment. Next to them were the arsenal guard platoon leader and several people on crutches, but with murderous intent and weapons loaded all over their bodies. Teng Teng's veteran.
"Dear colleagues and brothers, the news coming from the front line is very bad. The total strength of the Japanese invaders gathered on our front line has reached nearly 10,000 people, but the total strength of our 4th Battalion is only 1,400 people. This is the total strength of the 4th Battalion Shangguan Yun. The message sent to me and Director He a few hours ago." Lao Dantai unfolded the message sent by Shangguan Yun and read it softly in front of the microphone.
The two loudspeakers set up on the training ground played Shangguan Yun's farewell message. The more than 1,300 people in the entire training ground were first agitated, and then fell silent under the pressure of the sharp eyes of the veterans in the team.
The lieutenant platoon leader standing on the stage had a bitter look on his face.
With such a group of people, what else can Teachers Tantai Yunshu and Xiao He expect from them? But what could he accuse them of?
Of these 1,300 people, more than 200 were the proud sons of God who spent their youth wantonly on the university campus a year ago. Their most powerful battles were not on the court, but with sweat; and more than 400 of them were in the arsenal through boss Qian. They recruited skilled workers from Yu Province and Shaanxi Province; the other 700 are still farmers wielding hoes and hatchets.
At the critical moment when the Japanese army was pressing forward and about to destroy everything, they were only a little restless and did not take any other drastic actions, which was already quite good.
It's just that it's probably very difficult to rely on these people for the thing that Teacher Xiao He advocates!
But that doesn't matter, as long as soldiers like myself have the opportunity to sleep together with our comrades, it won't be too regretful.
Looking at the restless and disappointed people in the audience, the eyes of the lieutenant platoon leader returned to firmness.
"Now, there are two ways before us. One is to move all the equipment and materials that can be moved within four days and nights as battalion commander Shangguan Yun said, and blow up those that we cannot take away. "For the second way," Tantai Yunshu's face was extremely serious.
“Sir Tantai, what do you think the second way is? Time waits for no one! Just don't set up the dragon gate formation.” A disabled veteran from Sichuan in the crowd was obviously impatient and shouted.
“This second way was proposed by Director He, let Director He say it!” Tantai Yunshu took a step back and handed the microphone to Teacher Xiao He, whose round face was filled with determination.
"Dear classmates, brother workers, and comrades-in-arms, I am He Zehui. I was born in Suzhou and studied at Yenching University. When I was a student, I made a wish to design the most powerful weapons to protect our country from ever coming back. Being bullied by foreigners.
To this end, I applied for the Mechanical Department of the top university in the German Empire and had the best tutors. However, the war has spread to my motherland and the path to study has been cut off. I once thought that my ideal was dead, but I am very fortunate. Let me meet the Four Elements Group.
Here, although I have not been able to design the most powerful weapon as I dreamed of when I was young. The firearms and ammunition I designed are just machine guns, rifles, pistols and even small bullets, but I am still happy.
Especially when I saw the yellow and orange bullets packed in boxes and shipped to the barracks from the production workshop of our factory, I knew that every bullet could kill the Japanese invaders, and they would bleed and die.
This is what I, a so-called scientific researcher, have to do, and this is what all of you here are doing. Although we cannot shed our lives and blood like the Chinese soldiers on the front line, it is still of great significance.
We are very ordinary, but many years later our descendants will know that there is a group of people like us deep in such a big mountain, and they will also pay high respect to us who do not know our names. "Teacher Xiao He stared at his students and workers and said affectionately in a slightly thin voice.
“Director He, will people in the future know about us?” a young worker asked involuntarily.
“Haha! Of course you will know, because our China will definitely win this great Patriotic War, because our China has officers and soldiers like our Fourth Corps who are not stingy about sacrificing their lives, and we also have technicians like us who work more than 16 hours a day.
Your bed is next to the production equipment, your dining table is at the door of the workshop, and your sweat is dripping on the operating table. None of this will be forgotten by the Chinese people in the future. Do you believe it or not? In more than ten years, our Yadong Arsenal may become a memorial hall, with the names of each of our people who have worked here on it. "Teacher Xiao He replied firmly.
“That's great, but it's a pity that we have to evacuate. The Japanese will probably blow up the cave.” The young worker's eyes were full of hope, but then his eyes became a little sad.
People here know very well that with their current manpower and material resources, it is almost impossible to move a dozen precision machine tools, dozens of various mechanical processing equipment, and various materials with a total weight of thousands of tons within four days. Don't even think about it. Besides, there are several garment and gray ash and other factory equipment invested and built in Zhengcheng. It is almost an impossible task.
The various factories, dormitories, and some equipment and materials that had been built with hard work for half a year were destined to be bombed.
From then on, the Sixings Regiment Arsenal and several large and small factories were not only impoverished, but their vitality was also severely damaged. I don't know when it will be possible to regain their vitality.
"We still have a chance, this is exactly the second way I mentioned!" Teacher Xiao He's big round eyes suddenly burst into a frightening light.
“This war belongs to all Chinese people, not just Chinese soldiers. They do not hesitate to sacrifice or shed blood. Can we only live under the high wall they have built with their blood and lives?
At this critical moment, as Chinese, we can also rush to the battlefield with our heads held high, stand in a trench with them, and tell them, brother, I am coming! "
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was silent!
By now, the second path chosen by Teacher Xiao He has become obvious. She advocates not retreating but advancing. Everyone here should put their guns on their backs and rush to the front line!
Can they do it?
Although they also have military training two afternoons a week, 90% of them have never experienced a battlefield. When the gunshots sound and the blood blooms on the bodies of their comrades around them, will they be frightened? Pee your pants?
On this point, let alone the thousands of people present who doubted themselves, even Tantai Yunshu and the lieutenant platoon leader were extremely doubtful, so they both had reservations and finally chose to let Teacher Xiao He do the mobilization in person.
What finally made them make this decision was Teacher Xiao He's words that moved them both.
“Leave the choice to themselves, there is often only a thin line between bravery and cowardice!” Teacher Xiao He said firmly.
"Of course, the reason why I proposed this second way is not just because I hope that we can keep our own glory, but because we actually have no way out. The main force will not return until at least ten days later. The 4th Battalion sacrificed all its troops. The lives of 1,400 people can only be saved for 4 to 5 days. How far can we run in the mountains carrying all kinds of heavy equipment?
Also, there are so many military relatives and villagers in Dakouzi Town. Even if some people can escape, all the houses and living supplies will be burned by the Japanese. How will tens of thousands of people survive this cold winter?
Withdrawal will only save all of us here and less than half of the population of Dakouzidong Town. If we have the courage to work hard, many of us here may lose our lives, but we can definitely save the lives of more people and the necessities of life! "Teacher Xiao He continued.
“But Director He, are we just going to fight the Japanese with rifles?” A young militiaman raised his old-fashioned rifle with some anxiety. Most of the militiamen issued were Hanyang-made and Type 38 rifles, which are also commonly used firearms for their daily training.
"Little brother, don't forget, there is a director of the arsenal here, and there is also the director of the Ordnance Department of the Fourth Army Regiment. The inventory of the arms warehouse of my Fourth Army Regiment can make even German weapon masters drool with envy." Teacher Xiao He smiled.
"Teacher Tantai said that Tang Tuanzuo and Company Commander Tantai chose to go to the battlefield. That is their military duty, and most of the people here are not soldiers. He has no right to issue military orders to you, he can only request! Then! Teacher Tantai, Lieutenant Chu Shaoyun and I, the temporary headquarters, are making a request to everyone here, asking some of you brave people to join us and go to the front line to support our brothers!" Teacher Xiao He's big eyes said, With tears in her eyes, she bowed deeply on the stage.
"Those who are willing to wait with me, stand on the left side of the training ground and come closer to me!" The lieutenant and platoon leader strode forward and jumped off the stage with a loud sound like a bell.
"Haha! Don't worry, brother Shaoyun, I'm here! I can finally go to the battlefield again. I'm so excited that I'm blinded." A veteran who was missing an entire arm walked out of the queue.
First, he saluted Lao Tantai and Teacher Xiao He on the stage with his remaining arm, then ran all the way and stood up straight in front of the lieutenant platoon leader.
“You old man, Lao Lan, can you run fast just because you have two legs?” Several veterans on crutches walked out of the team.
Salute and return to the team!
In less than a minute, more than 90 veterans gathered in front of the lieutenant platoon leader. None of them was intact, either missing an arm or a leg.
There was even one who lost both of his forearms, leaving only two bare arms!
"Old Long, you are so stupid that you have no arms and can't even fire a gun. You're here to join in the excitement of a ball game. Hurry up and get out of here with those little bastards. You might still have a chance to help me collect corpses and burn paper or something." A veteran Cursed.
"Get off your grandma's lap. I can't shoot, but I can't carry a bullet box and pull an explosive pack or something? Do you **** believe it or not? I tied two explosive packs one after the other, pulled the grenade string, and brought it with me. There are more little devils leaving than all of you put together." The old soldier with the broken arm glared, showing his big yellow teeth.
His shoulders were tied to his neck with two unscrewed grenades. The fuses were right next to his mouth. He could bite them by tilting his head.
If two more explosive packets are hung, it will really be a large bomb comparable to a heavy artillery!
"You are such a bitch, why don't you live to beg for a guest, have a few more babies, and watch them grow up?" A veteran must also be his old comrade-in-arms. Seeing the old comrade-in-arms being so determined, he couldn't help but feel a little choked up in his throat. .
In fact, the pensions provided by the Four Lines Group to these disabled veterans are not low. In addition to bonuses for killing enemies and other bonuses, each veteran here has at least 200 yuan on hand. With this money, regardless of disability, he can go back to his hometown to ask for help. It's not difficult to be a wife.
"Hey, you bastards, do you know those petty things? Don't you just want me to burn paper for you and pour some wine during the holidays? I won't do such stupid things. You are all dead. I am alone. If you can't take care of me, let's go downstairs to meet the Lord of Hell for a drink!” The veteran grinned happily.
“You are right to say so! Let's do it together!” The veterans were also very open-minded and laughed.
"Teacher, as the saying goes, once you are a teacher, you are always a father! How can you violate your parents' orders? Here we come!" Fang Shiheng, the former vice president of the Jinling University Student Union on the other side of the technician queue, stood in front of the team and first said to his The two teachers gave a military salute.
After the battle outside Jinling, Fang Shiheng, who witnessed the cruelty of the war, was no longer the kind of proud man who lived in his imagination. He became much more pragmatic. His growth was also noticed by Tang Dao, and he gradually entrusted him to He already holds the important position of chief of the personnel and publicity section in the arsenal, which is second only to the deputy director.
At such a moment of decision, this proud man of heaven did not betray the trust of his two teachers and Tang Dao. After performing the military salute, he turned back and ordered loudly: "Students, comrades, and brothers, turn left and walk in unison. !”
The queue of technicians, all turn left and stride forward!
After nearly half a year of military career, these proud men have already acquired the appearance of soldiers, including determination!
On the field, there were only a few technicians left standing there, helpless!
After all, not everyone can be so brave at this moment of deciding their own destiny, no matter where they are.
Fang Shiheng turned around and saw this scene. He sighed slightly, but said nothing more. He continued to lead his classmates and comrades forward firmly until he reached the queue of veterans and stopped for a moment!
“Teacher, I'm sorry! But I'm really scared. I was scared when I was shooting!” A girl said with a strong cry to Teacher Xiao He who was walking down the platform.
"You guys, don't be ashamed. This is not your responsibility. Pack your personal belongings and try to evacuate as many villagers as possible!" Teacher Xiao He softly comforted the students who stayed in place.
"Damn, we're dead, how can we big brothers watch our little brothers and sisters risk their lives to fight for our lives? Brothers, let's go and have a taste of what it's like to kill the Japanese." A strong man from Henan Province roared loudly.
This man should also have some appeal, and more than 20 workers followed him to the left.
"We can't let the people from Henan Province get the limelight! These little devils are almost reaching the Yellow River. The Taihang Mountains must be defended. People from Guanzhong are not cowards!" Nearly fifty people walked out of the worker queue.
The workers in the arsenal are basically divided into three parts. Most of them are in Henan, Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces. They are naturally divided into small hills according to their hometowns. Seeing that Henan Province has taken the lead, workers in the other two provinces are also anxious.
Yes, they are traffickers and lackeys, with no education and little education, but the traditional Chinese culture is actually deeply ingrained!
It is a small thing to die, and the face of your hometown cannot be lost, otherwise you will not be able to live in the future.
Including the stimulated militiamen, it took about five minutes. In the end, the number of people standing in front of Lieutenant Platoon Leader Chu Shaoyun was as high as 1,200, accounting for 80% of the people present.
This number exceeded the expectations of the three people in the temporary headquarters. They originally thought that half of it would be good.
Perhaps, it is not only the veterans and student soldiers' disregard for death that has infected them, but they are well aware of the key point that Teacher Xiao He said: "How can the egg be finished when the nest is overturned?" Once the defense line is broken, Dakouzidong Town will become a human being. Hell, the severely wounded Japanese army will not let go of any Chinese creature in this area, even a dog!
If they want their family members to live, they have to fight tooth and nail and risk their own lives!
"Okay, now that the brothers have made their own choices, I, Tantai Yunshu, can't promise you anything, but I can promise you on behalf of Director He and Lieutenant Chu that the three of us will fight with you to the last man. We will live if you die, and we will die too!" Lao Tantai took the helmet handed over by the people around him, inserted the Black Star pistol into the gun bag on his waist, and issued the military order: "Open the regiment armory and take out all the inventory of combat anti-aircraft guns. , infantry artillery, rifle grenades, light machine guns”
Kumida Shiro on the Qingshiyan battlefield may never have imagined that the enemy in front of him not only did not deplete his troops, but instead added 1,200 new troops after this afternoon.
What's even more terrible is that after Tantai Yunshu made a desperate move to open the arms warehouse, the Si Xing Regiment's last trump card was also forced to be revealed.
In order to ensure the mobility of the main force, and because the 12.7 mm heavy machine gun and 20 mm machine gun can attack tanks, the Fourth Line Regiment has all 37 mm anti-tank guns in stock, up to 24 in number!
There are still 18 Japanese 70mm infantry guns that have been eliminated. In addition, there are 120 Czech-made ZB26 light machine guns that have been replaced, and 200 American-made Browning grenade launchers that have not been fully equipped with the entire regiment!
With these light and heavy firepower, combined with some light weapons, it is possible to build an infantry brigade, let alone arm 1,200 people.
At this desperate moment, Lieutenant Chu Shaoyun, who was truly a military commander in the station, even made a military arrangement that Tang Dao considered crazy.
ps: Please give me a monthly vote. Please give me a monthly vote and come again! They have all fallen out of the top ten of the military channel, how shameful is the romance!
