Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 1153

Kobayashi Koichi sat in the first car, while Tang Dao sat in the seventh car, not only to suppress the formation, but also because this was the safest position after an attack. This was in line with his status as a squadron leader of the heavy equipment. .

The machine gunners responsible for driving the car and the machine gun shooters lying on the roof of the car can completely monitor the second lieutenant of the Shinko Allied Forces. If Kobayashi makes any move, he will be mercilessly shot.

The baggage convoy, all dressed in Japanese military uniforms, set off at around 1 a.m. and had been walking on the mountain road for four and a half hours. They were getting closer and closer to the target area on the map. The sky was also white with fish belly, and the line of sight gradually became clearer. .

We have already encountered a group of patrols on the road, belonging to the 82nd Infantry Regiment of the 21st Division. The battle on the Niangziguan front line was extremely tense for a week. Nearly half of the three infantry regiments of the 21st Division suffered casualties and failed to make any progress. Major General Nagano Kameichiro, who was the acting commander of the 21st Division at the time, should have been completely exhausted. Feeling numb, but still cautious enough.

Especially for artillery protection, the Japanese army was tighter than Tang Dao had imagined. When they were about four miles away from the Japanese artillery regiment's defense line, a patrol team of about fifteen people stopped them. convoy.

Except for the five soldiers who stood in front of the lead car and stopped the convoy, the other ten people were hiding at the secret sentry posts on the mountain. With the headlights on the front of the car and the faint twilight, Tang Dao could clearly see the people not far away. The muzzle of a Type 96 light machine gun hidden in the woods has been pointed at the convoy.

Kobayashi Koichi was working very hard. When he saw this situation, he immediately jumped out of the car, imitating his usual fierce look as a second lieutenant and captain, and screamed "firepower output" at the sergeant captain of the patrol!

Even, he did not hesitate to throw away his second lieutenant officer certificate of the 6th Baggage Regiment of the 6th Division.

When he saw the sergeant of the 21st Division getting his officer's ID card and seeing the words "6th Division" with a respectful look on his face, Kobayashi Hikaru grabbed the officer's ID card that did not belong to him and opened the "Baga!" ', '21 Division Malu' and other Japanese-style national curses!

Don't tell me, this is not a show of Kobayashi's guilty conscience, it is an expression of true emotions. For a permanent division like the 6th Division, the 108th, 109th, 21st and other second-line divisions are scum. Needless to say, there is no second lieutenant. , even Kobayashi Koichi, a superior soldier, looked down upon them.

If it were normal, the Japanese military sergeant would definitely relent, but maybe the 21st Division had issued a strict order. Even if Kobayashi kicked his nose and started to scold "21st Division Malu", the Japanese military sergeant also bowed his head and smiled to express his innocence. I apologized, but these dozen Japanese soldiers had no intention of retreating. They still insisted on inspecting the convoy. If they were not allowed to be inspected, they would not be allowed to pass.

Although, with the strength of an infantry company currently owned by the convoy, or comparable to two or three Japanese infantry squadrons, not to mention that this patrol only has a dozen people, it would take two to kill them without using heavy weapons. The infantry squadron, Tang Dao is also confident that all battles can be resolved within half an hour.

However, the mission of the convoy is to infiltrate in disguise rather than attack by force. Once the Japanese troops are alerted several miles away, all preparations will be in vain.

Tang Dao's goal for this trip seems to be just four Japanese 105 howitzers and some 75 mountain guns, to avenge the brothers who died in the bombardment, but in fact Tang Dao's ambitions are far more than that.

In a valley five miles away, Yang Xiaoshan lurked all night with the remaining 200 men and horses of the guard company to protect more than 100 artillerymen armed with pistols.

What Tang Dao wants is not to destroy those heavy artillery pieces, but to use them for himself. Even if he cannot move them away for the time being, at least during this day, the Japanese army will have a taste of their own 105 large-caliber heavy artillery!

At that time, the Sixings Tuanshan Artillery Company and the Heavy Force Company will work together to carry out ground-washing artillery bombardment on all the infantry stations of the 21st Division in a pincer attack.

That scene, let alone actually doing it, is quite exciting just thinking about it!

Of course, for the 21st Division, what is worse than being wiped out by artillery fire is that their only way back to Jingxing will be chained to death by two extremely powerful infantrymen from the Si Xing Regiment.

If they cannot break through this shackles, let alone capture the main position of Niangziguan, the 21st Division will have a problem whether the remaining nearly 10,000 people can evacuate smoothly.

If the 21st Division is wiped out, all dangers to the entire Jindong Army will be resolved, and they can even make a counterattack, causing the Japanese North China Front Army, which was caught off guard and had no time to redeploy, to suffer a big loss!

This is the disguised attack on the Japanese artillery regiment. It is completely beyond ordinary tactics and can almost be called a strategic mission.

Seeing Kobayashi Hikaru scolding him, he still insisted on being unmoved. The "Japanese soldiers" in the truck all pressed their hands on their gun safety.

Tang Dao, however, sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, with no emotion on his face as calm as water. It was not until the Japanese sergeant walked past the lead car, the second, third, and fourth cars that he opened the door and jumped out of the car.

"Baga! Captain Matsumoto, ask their 21st Artillery Regiment Quartermaster Major Koizumi if he has received a telegram from our 6th Baggage Regiment to set off? If not, we will return immediately!"

Tang Dao walked forward with a cold face, without even looking at the Japanese sergeant who was peeling off the canvas of the fourth truck to look inside, and shouted questions to Koichi Kobayashi in pure Japanese.

"Hi! Your Excellency, squadron leader, I'll ask him right away." Kobayashi Koichi immediately stood up and bowed, his waist bent ninety degrees. It was a standard Japanese style for a subordinate to encounter an angry superior.

Seeing a captain-level squadron commander getting out of the car with great authority, the Japanese sergeant was also a little embarrassed.

As a veteran of the frontline combat force, although he does not need to give too much face to a second lieutenant officer who is only one level behind him, that does not mean that he dares to be rude to a captain officer who is several levels behind him, let alone the other party. It's still a permanent division like the Sixth Division.

“Squadron Captain Tanabe, our patrol team just changed defenses 2 hours ago. We were not notified by the squadron headquarters that a baggage convoy was coming. Please understand your responsibilities.”

The sergeant stepped up to the tall Tang Dao. His aura was not enough to humble him, and this man was half a head shorter, like a child who had made a mistake and met his father who loved to use a whip.

"Baga, why should others bear the responsibility for your mistakes? No wonder your 21st Division has made no progress on the front line for a week. This is not without reason! It is a mistake for the headquarters to choose you, a disgrace of the Imperial Army, to fight the Chinese! "Tang Dao's face turned even darker and he cursed angrily with completely humiliating words.

As soon as he said these words, the sweat on the head of the Japanese army officer began to drop.

In fact, from the fact that the second lieutenant who got out of the car earlier said the correct password, and the squadron leader roared in his native language with a strong local accent, the Japanese military sergeant had already determined that this was coming from Jingxing County The baggage convoy.

The reason why he used military orders to make things difficult was just to beat the autumn wind and get some cans of beef from this transport convoy for himself to have breakfast.

That's right, craving for naka is a common problem in almost all troops, not only in the Chinese army, but also in the Japanese army, in Europe, America, and Africa. Even if there is an order from the top, these veterans will still take some money from the transport convoy.

This stubborn disease is almost impossible to eradicate. Just like an old Chinese saying: "If the water is clear, there will be no fish." Human nature is like this. If you don't let the people who follow you get some benefits, who will work hard for you, or even work hard for you? The ministers of China and Japan basically turn a blind eye to this. As long as it doesn't go too far, just get some oil and water!

You know, even if the Ministry of Military Affairs provides supplies to the 80th Army, it must send a major general to lead the team. Otherwise, after more than 2,000 miles of checkpoints along the way, the team may not have even crossed the Yellow River, and the team may only be people and vehicles. And there aren't many supplies left.

An infantry regiment like Tang Dao carried its equipment and embarked on a journey of thousands of miles. If it wasn't because of Tang Dao's reputation, it would still be half way to the Taihang Mountains, or it would be good luck.

But the Japanese sergeant may not have expected that the captain in front of him was not only big, but also had a bad temper. When he came up, he pointed at the monk and scolded the bald donkey. He not only scolded him, but also scolded the 21st Division and the Front Army Headquarters. , if it were not for his aristocratic blood, the Japanese army sergeant could not think of any other reason for this captain of the heavy equipment to be so confident.

Thinking that he might have offended a nobleman, the Japanese military officer couldn't help but feel weak in his legs. He quickly stood up and bowed his back to admit his mistake: "Captain Tanabe, please calm down. I will give way right now."

"Yo Xi, you are dedicated to your duties and are much better than your idiot colleagues in the 21st Division!" A smile suddenly broke out on Tang Dao's face, who had been staring at the wrong sergeant for a long time, "How many of your subordinates are there? "

"Seventeen people." The sergeant didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly replied.

Tang Daochong waved to Kobayashi Guang, who was standing respectfully at the side, "Mr. Xiaolin, look at these imperial warriors who are still so loyal to their duties under such difficult conditions. Are they models of the imperial army and worthy of rewards?"

"Hi! Your Excellency, the squadron leader, is right!" Kobayashi Koichi nodded heavily.

"Well, give each of these dutiful imperial warriors two cans of beef cans and a bag of toffee as a personal gift from Tanabe Fengyu," Tang Dao said.

"Thank you, Captain Tanabe, thank you very much." The Japanese sergeant's face flashed with deep gratitude, and his posture of standing at attention and bowing became more standard. Except for those nobles who like to listen to the wind and admire the moon in the teahouse, who would choose a name like Tanabe Fengyu that sounds very literary? Mountain people and fishermen like them don't say whether they have this spirit or not. The key is that they don't know enough words!

Tang Dao, who was swaggering and seemed to be extremely happy, sat back in the cab and looked through the front windshield at the Japanese sergeant leading several soldiers blocking the road and standing respectfully on the roadside holding the cans thrown from the car. , with a calm face and growled softly: "Let's go."

The convoy moved forward slowly again.

Except for Tang Dao himself, no one could see that Tang Dao's vest, which had just been so strong, was also covered in cold sweat.

In addition to the shell boxes, food and other supplies that fooled the Japanese checkpoint patrols, hidden in the eight trucks were more people.

If the Japanese sergeant had been a little tougher, he might have seen more than 100 soldiers holding submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles hidden under the canvas of the four trucks after the fourth truck, and in the carriage that followed There was no material at all. Under the tarpaulin, except for machine guns and heavy machine guns, there were soldiers.

The timing of Tang Dao's step was just right, allowing the Japanese commander Cao to see the supplies but not being able to move forward. He completely suppressed the Japanese commander Cao with Japanese aristocratic pride, and finally won the battle. Only the soldiers will know. The psychological battle.

But it is also extremely dangerous. The light machine gun far away on the hillside is not scary. What is scary is the gunfire that can be heard 2,000 meters away. Once the Japanese defense line is put into combat readiness, the Japanese army with more than 20 cannons can definitely Give this elite raid team a devastating blow!

That is a fact that cannot be changed even by Tang Dao.

Fortunately, the little butterfly from the future has an extremely strong psychological quality and an understanding of the Japanese, and he solved this problem by using tricks.

This also made Tang Dao more determined to establish an espionage training institution in the future. The intelligence of the Si Xing Regiment cannot only come from friendly forces, but its own safety must also be in its own hands.

Especially if you encounter this kind of disguised infiltration battle again, you can't go out on your own every time. The reconnaissance company must have enough capable people to learn Japanese and understand Japanese culture. Otherwise, it is easy to lurk one person. A lurking attack with hundreds of people like this is almost impossible. impossible.

Just like the patrols deployed by the Japanese army in such areas, they are like watchdogs. There are not many people but they actually play a key role in guarding the rear. Under the silly appearance of the Japanese, they are very shrewd.

To put it bluntly, despite the fact that the Fourth Line Regiment now has equipment, people, and even a sizable arsenal, and there is a steady stream of funds from the outside thanks to the patent of penicillin, it is still just a rough embryo, with a brigade or even a second-line division. It's okay for a group fight, but once it encounters a larger-scale battle, many shortcomings are still exposed!

These are not that Tang Dao is incapable of planning, but the Four Elements Group was just trying to survive in the early stage. Now it finally has a foothold and it takes time to make up for these shortcomings!

Tang Dao believes that based on the current development trend, if he is given another two years, even if he faces the fifth division alone, his four-line regiment will be able to fight!

However, not only due to the pressure from the Japanese, but also the coveting eyes from behind, Tang Dao is not sure whether the Four Elements Group can have a normal two years.

The only thing he can do is to strengthen the Four Elements Group!

People will walk around when they see a lion, and they can't help but step on an ant when they see one! Your own strength does not make people afraid, but allows you to better protect yourself. This is the law of survival of nature!

A lion encounters a group of hyenas and will be sadly torn into pieces!

But what if a pack of lions breaks into the sleepy hyena camp at dawn?

There is no doubt that the hyenas are defenseless.

The sergeant of the Japanese patrol who was happily eating canned food heard a hair-raising explosion from the defensive position about 30 minutes later!

He was very familiar with the "Boom!" explosion. It was the unique sound of the Chinese mortar shells breaking through the air and hitting the target and exploding!

"But how did the Chinese show up?" The Japanese sergeant's face turned pale and he did not react for four to five seconds.

Because in that direction, except for this mountain road, there is basically no way to reach it. Even if the Chinese people come over the mountains and ridges, they should not appear in that location.

“Damn it, it's the baggage train!” The Japanese sergeant finally reacted with a bitter look on his face, and the canned beef in his hand seemed to be no longer fragrant.

Apart from the fact that the baggage team that only asked him to check a few vehicles had such ability, the experienced Japanese sergeant could not find any other reason.

The little faces of the Japanese soldiers around him almost turned into Western skin colors. They all knew what this meant!

"Sir, what should we do?" a Japanese soldier boldly asked.

“Bang!” There was a gunshot.

The Japanese army fell over!

“Enemy attack!” the Japanese sergeant howled reflexively, before he even reached out to touch his rifle.

The extremely accurate bullets flew over and killed the Japanese sergeant and the five or six nearby Japanese soldiers one by one!

Then there was the sound of machine gun fire and the explosion of rifle grenades.

　　A Japanese squad with a full complement and even an additional light machine gun team resisted for less than two minutes before being completely wiped out!

As five scouts wearing camouflage uniforms took the lead into the battlefield to count the Japanese corpses, groups of heavily armed soldiers walked out of the mountains and forests.

At the moment the convoy set off, Tang Dao quietly ordered the field radio to be turned on, and ordered Gu Xishui and Yang Xiaoshan who were lurking in the mountains to set off immediately.

Hearing the gunfire in the distance, Gu Xishui immediately ordered his scouts to kill the Japanese patrol guarding the mountain road.

This actually allows these Japanese soldiers to no longer have to worry about being held accountable by their superiors in the future.

“The whole guard company and the mountain artillery company are affiliated, immediately march towards the regiment seat!” Looking forward, Yang Xiaoshan's honest and simple face did not show the slightest fluctuation, and he directly issued the military order.

Tang Tuanzuo's order to him was not only to protect the artillery, a group of technical arms, but also required him to enter the battlefield as quickly as possible after the battle started.

Because Tang Dao could not predict what the battlefield would look like in the end, he had to devote all his strength as quickly as possible to quickly eliminate all the resistance of the Japanese artillery regiment, without giving the reacting Japanese command a chance to reorganize a counterattack.

All this depends on speed!

More than 360 Chinese officers and soldiers who ran 2,300 meters in the pitch-black mountains for 28 minutes did not even bother to take a breath before running towards the battlefield 2,000 meters away again.

The five-kilometer armed cross-country mission that the Si Xing Regiment has persisted in for a long time has demonstrated its power.

It only took 10 minutes for Yang Xiaoshan and the guard company to arrive at the battlefield!

As a result, they saw a battlefield that they could not believe!
