Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 976

Chapter 976 It's time to divide the fruit again!

By the afternoon of April 2, as the last infantry company of the Fourth Line Regiment arrived at the station, the "Xiangtangpu" ambush was successfully completed.

The casualties of the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment and the 683rd Brigade had been counted through the medical teams and stretcher teams as early as yesterday evening.

Although the 771st Regiment located on the main battlefield had advantages in terrain and strength, after all, they were facing a group of Japanese troops who were trapped and struggling, and they numbered 800 people. It was absolutely impossible to win with zero casualties.

In fact, let alone zero casualties, in order to end the battle as soon as possible, several elite infantry companies that interspersed, divided and surrounded the remaining Japanese troops on the road inevitably suffered many casualties.

The 771st Regiment lost nearly a hundred officers and soldiers, and suffered over a hundred serious injuries. Those who were slightly injured and could still fight were not included in the casualties. The battle loss ratio with the Japanese army was about 1:4.

Although the 772nd Regiment and the Supplementary Regiment faced more Japanese troops, the Japanese troops there were almost a formality. From the beginning of contact to the final withdrawal of the Japanese troops, both sides did not use their full strength, but the losses were much smaller.

The total casualties of the two regiments were less than 30 officers and soldiers, and the total number of minor and serious injuries was less than 100. The Japanese army on the opposite side left behind nearly a hundred corpses, and the number of wounded was impossible to count.

The Fourth Line Regiment was in a big fight with the 31st Infantry Brigade. The 31st Infantry Brigade used up to 26 artillery pieces to bombard the Fourth Line Regiment's positions. Fortunately, the Four Lines Regiment had good habits and must attack every battlefield. Civilian work was carried out first, thus reducing many unnecessary casualties.

Even so, more than 20 officers and soldiers died under Japanese artillery fire. More than 10 people were killed when they were shot by Japanese 7.7mm heavy machine guns during the exchange of fire with the Japanese invaders, and more than 20 people were seriously injured.

However, for the Four Elements Group who must avenge themselves, you have always sucked my blood, so I have to take a mouthful of flesh back no matter what.

The losses of the 31st Infantry Brigade were much higher than those of their opponents.

According to the internal battle report of the Japanese army after the war, the 31st Infantry Brigade, which devoted all its efforts, killed 308 imperial officers and soldiers that day alone. Later, more than 100 officers and soldiers died due to wound infection, accounting for nearly half of the seriously injured soldiers, which was far lower than the previous serious injuries. The treatment rate of soldiers.

That's because the Japanese don't know that the Sixings Regiment now has sufficient ammunition. The officers and soldiers no longer carefully preserve bullets and artillery shells as treasures as before. Instead, they are influenced by Tang Tuanzuo and think about how to make the warheads more powerful.

For example, Tang Dao said that contaminated warheads are more likely to cause bacterial infections after entering the human body, so officers and soldiers thought of ways to add "materials" to the warheads.

Of course, in order to ensure the accuracy of the warhead, it is strictly forbidden to apply mud, feces, etc., but the wisdom of the people is the vast ocean.

Some officers and soldiers who were hunters thought of smearing arrowheads with poisonous tree sap in their hometown to cause damage to prey, so they used this trick on bullets. I don't know how many bullets were contaminated with poisonous tree sap in the Taihang Mountains and then dried.

As for whether it is useful, it has been proved that the treatment rate of seriously wounded Japanese soldiers is much lower than usual.

This has become a problem that will plague the Japanese army for a long time in the future. As long as they face the Four Elements Regiment, the 70% survival rate of seriously wounded Japanese soldiers who originally had relatively complete medical conditions will drop by 20 percentage points. Blessed by Amaterasu, at the lowest point, it was even less than 30%.

It cost a lot of money to bring it back from the battlefield, and it also consumed a lot of medicine. In the end, you had to watch it die, which is a blow to any commander.

Even the stupidest people will know after a long time that the Four Lines Regiment probably did some tricks on the ammunition, but they have no evidence. The warheads they can find are all in the bodies of Japanese soldiers.

After such a mixture of flesh and blood, there is nothing left. Besides, it is basically a pure natural substance, and it is not like the chemical poison bombs made by the Japanese army. With the current scientific and technological means of the Japanese army, it is a **** thing to be able to find out the cause. .

Japanese commanders at all levels are very distressed, but for ordinary Japanese soldiers, this phenomenon is like a curse, and based on the past battles of the Four Lines Regiment, the Imperial Army rarely takes advantage.

As a result, a legend gradually began to spread among the Japanese army in North China, saying that the Four Elements Regiment had been blessed by the Chinese mountain gods, and anyone who was their enemy would be cursed. Most of the seriously injured people died because of the curse.

This resulted in the subsequent battles between various Japanese army units and the Sixth Army Regiment headquarters, which were far different from their usual fighting style. Throwing a can and bottle could scare a large number of people to the ground, and they were so cautious that the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment in the trenches were anxious for them. .

Just keep working hard, and by the time the war is over, we will probably be able to celebrate the New Year.

Indeed, judging from the firepower of the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment who will be re-equipped in the future, they prefer their opponents to be braver, just hold their guns and throw away their arms and stride forward, just like what they showed in the Russo-Japanese War That way, if the head falls off, the scar will be no bigger than a bowl, and you are not afraid of death.

Veteran Youzi, who carries the genuine MP40, has a famous saying: "You should rush faster, because my gun is already very thirsty."

A group of veterans stared at the guns in their company commander's hands with resentment in their eyes. There were only 10 such good guns in the whole company, but Li Jijin, the great company commander, wanted to monopolize one gun and had to go to the front line to earn merit. The little devil was like that Duo, you have killed all of them, and you still have to kill a few of your brothers! Really, so shameless.

Japanese soldier: MP40? I'll **** your German uncle.

The topic is a bit off topic. What I just mentioned is only the loss of the 31st Infantry Brigade. Naturally, the biggest casualty was not the infantry, but the artillery of the artillery regiment it carried.

In the retaliatory shelling led by 150-caliber heavy mortars, the First Artillery Battalion of the 109th Division Artillery Regiment not only lost nine 75mm mountain guns, but more than 300 artillerymen died in the battle.

If you add in the 89 tanks and 94 tanks lost by the tank squadron, the 31st Infantry Brigade suffered more than 800 casualties in the battle.

This was the result of the 31st Infantry Brigade not having time to attack the position forcefully. Gu Teng Changjing, who was holding the casualty report, felt a chill down his spine at that moment. He now basically knew why the 108th Division in the First Battle of Beiganling With a force of nearly 2,000 men, supported by tanks and cannons, they were eventually killed by the Chinese and completely annihilated.

It's not just that the Chinese are too cunning, it's that the Chinese are too tough. If you bite into it, your teeth will break out. When you try to run away, will you still have time?

The 769th Regiment, which was basically a feint attack in the end, suffered almost no losses this time. In other words, more than a dozen soldiers were injured by stones in the Japanese shelling, which is completely negligible.

Compared to the Battle of Xiangtangpu in the past time and space, the total casualties on the Chinese side were naturally much higher than before, but the number of Japanese troops annihilated on the three battlefields was also far higher, and the total number of casualties was close to 2,000.

Moreover! This slap was very hard, hitting three divisions in the face.

Needless to say, there are two special divisions 108 and 109. One is a no-name division that is used to being beaten, and the other is a no-name division that pretends to be a no-name division despite being a no-name. Both of them deserve what they deserve, as long as they are still in Jindong. If you mess around here, you will get beaten sooner or later.

The worst thing was the 14th Division. Not only were their 800 men gone, but even a month's worth of baggage was robbed. Not even a grain of rice was left for them!

Or to be more precise, not a cent of yen was left.

Because in addition to daily necessities such as grain, sugar, and salt, the truck also transported the 14th Division's military salary for the entire month of March and the special war allowance for these three months. Grandma just approved it, and the total amount is as high as 2 million yen.

The Japanese yen in this period is not the Japanese yen of the future. Its purchasing power can be exchanged almost one-to-one with the current ocean. Two million yen is a huge sum of money. Maybe the Chinese in the mountains thought it was too hard to wipe their butts with it, but for the 14th Division, that was the life money earned by more than 20,000 people in the division for three months after fighting to death.

The people are gone, the money is gone, and even the stuttering people are gone. Do you think Tufeiyuan can not be impatient? On the afternoon of April 1st, Doi Yuan was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he received the news of the withdrawal of the 108th and 109th divisions. They were all officers of the same rank. He could not find the two lieutenant general division commanders. trouble, but this man took all his breath to the North China Front Army Headquarters.

He knew that Indoor Shroud would be leaving his post soon, but he was definitely not in a state where he was not afraid of being bitten by lice, so he directly asked the Front Army Headquarters to replenish his division's supplies for one month, as well as all lost military pay and subsidies, and asked the Front Army Headquarters to replenish him. All damaged cars in the baggage regiment.

This is no longer the lion's mouth, but the hippopotamus doesn't know he is ugly, but Tu Feiyuan knows that even if the indoor shroud sells the house to buy land, he has to help him plug the hole.

Because there may not be many people who can rub salt into the wounds of His Majesty the Army General Indoor Shroud, but Madoka Doi, a great spy chief who came from the Imperial Intelligence System, is definitely one of them.

Indoor Shroud: So, in the end, it was me who shouldered all the pain?

But regardless of whether Indoor Shroud is willing or not, this blame can only be shouldered by him, the commander of the North China Front Army. Perhaps, this is one of the most tragic general-level commanders since Japan established the Front Army.

The reason why I say it is one is because the war is still going on! Who knows if there might be something worse?

Anyway, the Japanese Army's biggest enemy, the Japanese Navy, had an unlucky boy named Fifty-Six who was even worse. He couldn't go home after a plane trip.

Leaving aside the intrigue among the Japanese military because of this loss, by April 3, all supplies were calculated, and everyone from the commander of the 921st Division to Brigadier Cheng Da to Tang Dao could not help but smile with joy.

To be honest, this wave of supplies looks unremarkable on the surface. It is just some food and ammunition replenishment. This is not very unusual for the 921 Division and the Fourth Army Regiment, which have already robbed the Japanese army several times. However, this batch of supplies There are some scarce supplies that the two armies need most and cannot be bought even if they have money.

Not to mention the 2 million yen, the Four Troops Group is not short of money now, and there are still more than 20,000 taels of gold waiting to be exchanged! That was all given to the 921st Division, and only they had the ability to quietly consume these 2 million yen in the Japanese-occupied areas.

In this battle against the Japanese baggage regiment, more than 420 Type 38 rifles, more than 140 Southern Fourteenth pistols, 11 Type 96 light machine guns, 10 Type 89 grenades, and 50 Japanese trucks were seized on the battlefield. The vehicle comes with 200 barrels of fuel and 580 helmets.

In addition, 800 temporary Type 38 rifles, 200 Southern Type 14 pistols, 24 Type 96 light machine guns, 24 Type 89 grenade launchers, 12 Type 92 heavy machine guns, and 12 Type 92 heavy machine guns were seized from the Japanese military convoy. 2 infantry guns, 150,000 rounds of various machine rifle bullets, 6,000 melon grenades, and 200 rounds of infantry gun shells.

These are the weapons and equipment of an infantry brigade of the Japanese army. Together with those captured on the battlefield, this batch of arms is enough to arm a pure Japanese-style infantry regiment. Standing in the spring breeze, Brigadier Cheng Da smiled like a fool.

However, these are not very attractive to the four-line regiment, which is all made in the Czech Republic. Tang Dao does not want the weapons and equipment in the regiment to be too miscellaneous, which will eventually cause supply difficulties. Therefore, they basically do not need those rifles and machine guns, but only need All Southern Type 14 pistols.

The Four Lines Regiment will equip all machine gun shooters, grenade launchers, and auxiliary units such as artillery, engineers, and baggage soldiers with pistols. Although at this time, the military factory is working hard to manufacture the Four Lines Regiment's own standard based on the design of the Tang Dao. Pistols, but they cannot be manufactured and equipped to the troops in a month or two.

So, the Southern Type 14 pistol must become a substitute within at least half a year. Even if the performance is not good, it is still better than empty-handed, right?

　Japanese-style munitions are not important. For the Four Lines Regiment, the batches of sugar, salt, cigarettes, and tea are more important.

This time, 300,000 jins of polished rice, 80,000 jins of refined wheat, 80,000 jins of various canned meats, 10,000 boxes of biscuits, 10,000 jins of concentrated soy sauce, 3,000 jins of salt, 3,000 jins of sugar, and milk were seized from the Japanese convoy. 30,000 kilograms of sugar, 1,500 kilograms of tea, and 100 boxes of cigarettes (one million sticks).

Tang Dao even gave up his demand for rice and wheat and asked for 5,000 boxes of biscuits, 5,000 kilograms of soy sauce, half salt and half sugar, 1,000 kilograms tea, and three-quarters each of toffee and cigarettes.

If it is reasonable to say that Tang Dao gave up most of its arms and did not ask for food. Even if it is necessary to ask for all these salt, sugar, tea and other supplies, the 921st Division will never refuse to give them.

But Tang Dao knew that these materials were needed by the Four Lines Regiment, and actually needed more by the 921 Division. They now had a much harder time than the Four Lines Regiment. Not only did they need to feed their nearly 30,000 troops, but they also had to shoulder the important task of handing over supplies to the army headquarters. .

These salts and sugars that maintain the energy content of the human body are equally precious to the 921st Division, which has not received any supplies for most of the year.

Take salt as an example. Many soldiers only have less than five grams of salt per week, which is only one-tenth of what the Japanese army did. Don't even think about sugar. I don't know how many soldiers never tasted sweetness from the time they were soldiers to the time they died in battle. .

This is a tragedy, but more importantly, it is the helplessness of the times. As a farming nation, China is too immersed in its own past.

If you fall behind, you will receive the most severe beatings. This is true for both the country and the individual.

Therefore, even if Tang Dao asked for enough, Brigadier Cheng Da was still very grateful. He knew that Tang Dao had tried his best to leave enough necessary supplies for the 921 Division. Otherwise, no matter how Tang Dao could dominate the Four Lines Regiment, he would still be overwhelmed. No less than the voices within the Four Elements Group.

After all, those supplies were obtained by the officers and soldiers with their lives. Not cherishing the supplies means not taking the lives of the soldiers seriously. Who dares to follow such a commander?

It goes without saying that there is no one who is not a fan of cigarettes and other supplies. As long as you are a soldier, even if you are not a long-time smoker but a new recruit, you can't help but take a few puffs to relieve your tension on the battlefield.

Therefore, as soon as the 75 boxes of cigarettes were obtained, Tang Dao ordered that except for the five boxes left at the regiment headquarters, the rest should be distributed to each battalion according to the size of the establishment. At least each soldier should be guaranteed to have five packs of cigarettes, and the rest should be distributed according to military rank and military merit. distribute.

Salt, sugar, toffee, and canned food were naturally handed over to the munitions department of the regiment headquarters for unified distribution. However, Tang Dao specially allocated some of them to the special squadron that had not yet been expanded into a reconnaissance company.

The Japanese army also has elite soldiers similar to the reconnaissance company. Because they have to stay in the field for a long time, their individual soldiers have a lot of supplies. Generally, they are: 6 150-gram cans of beef, a 60-piece iron box of biscuits, 100 pieces of nutritional rations, milk 500 grams of sugar, a small amount of salt! In terms of rations alone, an individual soldier would have to carry six to seven kilograms.

As for the special forces of the Fourth Line Regiment, they were limited in supplies and could only carry some dry biscuits and water, and at most a few toffees.

Now that the conditions are good, Tang Dao will of course have to keep a close eye on them. Canned meat, biscuits, and toffee will also become their standard individual soldier rations.

Perhaps for a long time in the future, the more than 20,000 kilograms of milk candies and those canned meats seized this time will become the wartime individual rations for the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Line Regiment.

Tang Dao cannot yet judge what kind of reaction the Japanese army will have after being beaten up this time.

In the past time and space, they were so angry that they organized two divisions and gathered more than 10,000 people into nine groups to attack the mountainous area.

This time, can you still endure the indoor shroud?
