Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 258

Chapter 258: It will hurt if you hit someone with an egg

The guard company commander couldn't help but turn his eyes to the army colonel with a strange expression over there.

The idea of leading dozens of people out of the position to steal thousands or even tens of thousands of Japanese troops makes people's scalp numb just thinking about it.

Unexpectedly, the army colonel strangely did not express any opinion. Instead, his eyes were deep, as if he was considering the feasibility of the Tang Dao idea.

Sir, are you all crazy? This was the thought that arose in the minds of the officers and soldiers of the guard company.

"Are you scared? But that doesn't matter. I'll leave the position of the 3rd Company of the 43rd Army to you for now." Tang Dao said coldly as his cold eyes slid across the queue of soldiers from the guard company with strange expressions.

"Sir Tang, we are now under your command, but if there are military orders, all of our security company will obey the military orders. Let alone just go out to steal the enemy's positions, even if they are mountains of swords and seas of fire, our whole security company will dare to go there." The capable guards continued. The corner of his eyes glanced at the members of his group who were bowing their heads in deep thought. His heart suddenly jumped, and he stepped out of the queue and stood at attention to answer.

Tang Dao's cold gaze stayed on the guard company commander's face for a long time, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Very good! Just say this to Captain Peng, your guard company is qualified to stay in Cangcheng and fight." Tang Dao nodded.

At this moment, the somewhat arrogant guard company realized that this person was just testing them with crazy ideas. If they made any random suggestions, this person would probably drive them back without mercy.

The reason is simple. In this position, what he needs is absolute obedience, rather than being able to express his opinions at will just because he is an elite.

And their regimental commander who didn't say a word was probably able to figure out the thoughts of this unclear Commander Tang, and used silence to express his support for him.

Fortunately, their captain was alert enough and did not let him drive everyone back in front of the regimental commander.

At this moment, none of the soldiers in the guard company who had figured this out even thought that Tang Dao would not do this. It was not because of the reputation of the commander of the Sixing Battalion, nor because of Tang Dao's position as the highest commander of the Cangcheng position.

But, subconsciously, they thought that Tang Dao would be so tyrannical.

This is also a warrior's intuition.

Their intuition was right.

As long as one of them jumps out and babbles about Tang Dao's seemingly crazy idea, Tang Dao will mercilessly drive the most proud elites of the 644th Regiment back to the city.

Wang Xirui, he admired him very much, but this did not mean that Tang Dao would accept a group of arrogant soldiers who did not obey military orders, even if they were also strong generals.

In this small space in Cangcheng, what he needs is not only the ability to defeat thousands of troops, but most importantly, absolute obedience.

Even if he knew that he was going to die and was going to use his body to block the gap in the city wall, he would not hesitate after receiving the military order.

All people are just screws in a machine, with only one brain.

This is what is called "ruling like an arm".

If not, how could we withstand the fierce Japanese attacks one after another?

The guard company of the 644th regiment is very good. Although they are very proud, they are by no means arrogant. Even if they have doubts about Tang Dao's ideas, they are still willing to obey orders.

"You can stay, but what I just thought was not a suggestion, but an order." The smile on Tang Dao's lips faded. "All brothers in the security company equipped with shell guns and submachine guns, replenish enough ammunition and follow me out of the city to perform tasks."

“Yes!” The guard company commander surnamed Peng saluted and accepted the order without hesitation.

Through the short period of contact, although the guard company commander has not yet figured out Tang Dao's temper, he is certain that what Tang Dao needs is to enforce orders and prohibitions.

“Commander Tang, you go!” The contemplative army colonel said instead of stopping Tang Dao's seemingly crazy behavior. "I will temporarily take command of the Cangcheng position for you. The entire army will enter the position with heavy firepower to cover you when you return."

“Okay!” Tang Dao raised his hand in salute.

The Army Colonel returned the salute.

One has to take 60 officers and soldiers equipped with continuous-fire firearms to sneak attack the Japanese position 800 meters away, and the other has to take 60 elite moths under his command to fight the fire;

The other one has to command Cangcheng's heavy weapons that can attack hundreds of meters away to provide fire cover for his return journey. Japanese artillery fire suddenly arrives. If he retreats even slightly, Tang Dao and the 60 elites will almost die.

You can imagine with your toes the madness of the enraged Japanese troops attacking in groups. However, the two simply exchanged military salutes and made this almost crazy decision together.

　　The lives of your men are entrusted to me, and mine are entrusted to you.

Your life belongs to you, but I will use mine to guard your return.

No one said it, but both of them understood it.

Two Chinese soldiers who had only met a few times were connected by such an extraordinary trust.

At that moment, Tang Dao may have truly forgotten his past time and space.

He is the Chinese army. Those standing around him are all his colleagues, not any seniors.

Many years later, someone asked the army captain who participated in this night attack and asked him what impressed him most about the Battle of Songjiang.

The army captain did not hesitate to talk about the battle of attacking the Japanese army at night when he first arrived in Cangcheng.

Originally, before the Songjiang Defense Battle, the most famous night attack in China was the Xifengkou Night Battle during the Great Wall War of Resistance. The 29th Army assembled an infantry regiment, all armed with thick-backed machetes, and used the cover of night to rush to the Japanese position. In the **** fight, nearly a thousand Japanese bandits were killed.

In the future, with the extensive use of guerrilla warfare in enemy-occupied areas, night raids will become more commonplace. Sneak attacks on Japanese military positions, touching a Japanese artillery tower, and even if the enemy walks out of the artillery tower to take a shit, you have to be careful of someone shooting behind you.

Large-scale, small-scale, and even individual night attacks were common in the Great Patriotic War.

The Army Captain experienced the brutal Battle of Songjiang, and later participated in countless battles, large and small, but this battle still left a deep impression on him. After decades of ups and downs, the scene that happened that night still seems to be vivid in his mind.

However, the reason that impressed him so deeply was not because it was tragic enough.

Rather, it was a jaw-dropping victory.

The Japanese troops on the opposite side were negligent.

If it were Jiro Wakita, the dead guy, who was here, he would definitely remind Shigeru Suematsu, the unlucky boy, that the guy opposite you is a night owl, and he becomes more energetic as the night goes on.

It's a pity that he died.

Suematsu Shigeharu, on the other hand, has no idea who the Chinese commander opposite him is. Even until now, the Chinese garrison information transferred from the dispatched army headquarters is only the number of the 63rd Army. He only knows that there is a Chinese Army The lieutenant general led an army of more than 30,000 men and stationed in Songjiang.

As for the rest, the Japanese military intelligence personnel did not send too detailed information.

Therefore, things like Guo Rudong and the crippled 43rd Army, as well as Tang Dao and his Four Elements Battalion, were not placed on Suematsu Shigeji's command table at all.

Or, even if he knows, he doesn't care.

A crippled infantry division and an infantry battalion with no more than a few hundred troops at most are useless on such a battlefield where tens of thousands of people are fighting!

but!

If an egg is frozen hard and you smash it on someone's head, you can still get a big bump.

Therefore, all the officers and subordinates of the 114th Division from Suematsu Shigeharu on down, who did not understand this truth, did not prepare for the Chinese defenders even if they suffered a loss in front of Cangcheng, an iron lump that could not be smashed.

No one thought that the Chinese would be bold enough to send a small force to break into a position where their army was gathered.

Facing the 3,000-meter-long front line of residential areas in Cangcheng and Songjiang, except for temporarily dug field trenches, no barbed wire fences were erected as usual.

Mobile outposts are just two groups of six people sent by each infantry squadron to patrol in front of one's own trenches in symbolic shifts.

That also means that there are only three sentries on the 300-meter-long position.

How would you describe this thing?

Just like Wu Dalang was guarding against Pan Jinlian's cheating, he patrolled outside the main gate of the community every day. Little did he know that the modern community has four gates in the southeast, northwest and east. If there were another east 1 and south 2, Ximen Qing would be eager to enter. There can be an infantry company.
