Chapter 280 Contest in the Jungle (Continued 1)
Ma Qian'an led a team of more than 50 people to evacuate the Lily Valley Bridge and retreated to a place about 20 kilometers north of the north. He had a little stubbornness in executing the order. After all, this operation to destroy the railway was of great significance to him. This was a combat mission he had completely led the troops to carry out. This kind of battle not only tests the combat effectiveness of the commander, but also tests whether the commander can have a strict concept of time and whether he can strictly execute the orders under the condition of autonomy. Let you persevere until the 17th and never retreat on the 16th.
Even if I beat the last person to the end, I will never let the Japanese open to traffic before the 17th. This is the bottom line.
On the evening of the 15th, the retreat order finally came. Yang Jingyu from the Northeast Bureau sent a telegram to change the original combat order. Due to the rapid changes in the situation, the Soviet army had successfully completed the battle to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army in Dongning Fortress and began to withdraw. The battle between Ma Qian'an's troops cut off the railway has achieved its effect. He ordered Ma Qian'an to evacuate and return to the base in the north of Tieli County.
The retreat was discovered by Japanese spies everywhere, attracting the pursuit of Masao Oguri from the direction of Harbin. The jungle pursuit battle broke out again. In order to preserve the vitality, Ma Qian'an was forced to leave the 7th Squadron to be cut off and led his main force to retreat to the riverside.
Ma Qian'an had more than 5 troops in his hands. In addition to the Xiaogu brigade, some of the Japanese chasing were recruited by the Jisong United in Chunqiuling, with a total of more than 15 people. Jisong's encirclement and suppression of the Anti-Japanese United Army near Chunqiuling was not great, and it was exhausted a lot. It was not until he was severely scolded by Shangang, the commander of the Harbin Army, that he knew that the Anti-Japanese United Army troops had returned to the Lily of the Valley Bridge and completely destroyed it, and plundered and burned all his logistics supplies. The Anti-Japanese United Army troops he was pursuing were just a small suspicious soldier. After this attack, Jisong did not "sink" and immediately took back most of the troops pursuing the Anti-Japanese United Army and immediately returned to the railway line.
Although Ma Qian'an had more than 50 people and had ammunition and food, he still did not dare to fight the decisive battle with the Japanese. His soldiers included more than 100 local rural young men who had joined the army and more than 100 puppet troops. When they encountered regular Japanese soldiers, the combat effectiveness of these more than 200 people might not even be able to defeat the Japanese, and it was easy to blow up the battalion and affect morale. Instead of sending them to fight, it would be better not to fight.
After a marching day and two nights, the troops arrived at the riverside again. The river water was still surging, but Ma Qian'an lost the possibility of crossing the river.
There were no personnel who responded at the scheduled location. Ma Qian'an was vigilant and sent a scout. An hour later, the scout reported that the situation was not good. When we came, the crossing of the river was in a fierce battle. All the left-behind soldiers were gone, leaving only the craters and shells all over the ground.
The urgent Ma Qian'an immediately followed the scouts and sneaked into the vicinity of the river bank again. Under the guidance of the scouts, he checked the situation on the river bank again. In order to prevent the enemy ambush, Ma Qian'an and the scouts did not get too close to the location of the river bank, but lay on a small high ground, hiding in the grass and watching carefully with a telescope.
The river fork where the creek ships were originally hidden in the wooden raft was in a mess, and all the tools for crossing the river were gone. There was a small steamer patrolling on the river surface. He looked at the opposite river bank with a telescope and could clearly see simple fortifications on the opposite side. There was one every few dozen meters, and each fortification was driven by machine guns and grenade launchers. It seemed that this section of the river surface had been blocked.
After a brief analysis and discussion with Li Fengshan and the squadron leader, everyone concluded that the Japanese had already realized the origin of this team, and now they had begun to block the river surface, locked the passage to return to the northern station of Tielli, and wanted to trap his small army in Daqingshan.
What to do? Ma Qian'an is facing a serious situation. His lonely army is far away from the main force. There are rivers blocking them in front and pursuers attacking them. Now the main task is not to eliminate many enemies, but how to get rid of the enemy.
"Comrades! This is the situation. Let me tell you the next plan." Ma Qian'an was serious and issued an order to the commander who surrounded him. "One, order the seventh squadron to get rid of the pursuit and join the large army. Second, after the seventh squadron arrived, all the troops immediately left Daqingshan and entered the plain along the river and advanced to the east. Taking advantage of our advantage of horses, we will quickly enter Zhang Guangcai Ridge along the Songhua River. Third, enter Zhang Guangcai Ridge and look for opportunities to hide. When the enemy relaxed and could not catch us, he suddenly came out of the mountain to cross the river between Tonghe and Yilan as fast as possible. During this period, small troops were sent to collect ferry ships. Fourth, we will immediately inform the General Command of the Anti-Japanese United Army of China and request the headquarters to provide assistance to the best of our ability."
Ma Qian'an speculated that it was impossible for the Japanese to block the river surface for hundreds of kilometers. He always had the opportunity to find the Japanese to find an unblocked river surface. He turned his attention to more than 100 kilometers downstream.
The Japanese strengthened the search for Daqingshan, which did not mean that the same was true for other places. The Zhao Shangzhi army of the Anti-Japanese United Army also made great progress in a short period of time, avoiding the Zhuhe area where the Japanese had strong military forces. Ma Qian'an was determined to replicate Zhao Shangzhi's actions back then. Moreover, the conditions are much better now, at least everyone has horses. Even if some people do not ride well, they are faster than walking, and their mobility is still guaranteed.
The 7th Squadron behind the palace was about 10 kilometers away from the mountain road. While Ma Qian'an was discussing countermeasures with the commanders, the 7th Squadron and the main force of the Otani Masao Brigade were fighting hard.
A small team guarded a dangerous area to block the elite Japanese soldiers who were swarming in. The second and third teams, led by the squadron leader Lu Siguang, launched a counterattack from the flank to the Japanese.
The two sides fought in the dense forests of hillsides between several peaks with a width of hundreds of meters and a depth of several kilometers. The troops of both sides were concentrated in one place at the beginning and scattered everywhere at the end, and were no longer established. The victory of the Anti-Japanese United Army was due to the well-trained warriors and gave the Japanese a major injury, but in the end, the number of people was not superior to the territory and the two sides were equal, and gradually felt it was difficult.
Ma Qian'an's order was sent to Lu Siguang through a walkie-talkie. Unfortunately, Lu Siguang could never hear it. He was already killed. The commander of the second team was Su Jigui. Su Jigui ran and shouted to the communicator who was following him, "Tell the commander, you can't evacuate! As soon as I evacuated the Japanese, I chased them. Let me fight for a while, and ask the commander to lead the new recruits and leave quickly. It will be too late. The Japanese seem to have increased their troops again, and there are a large group of them."
Ma Qian'an clamped the microphone and listened silently to the noisy background coming from inside, silently hesitating. From time to time, heavy breathing sounds, grenade explosions, crooked machine guns, rapid strafing sounds of his submachine guns, and continuous screams from people from far or near.
The battle was extremely fierce, which could be heard from Su Jigui's roar from time to time, and the roar of the submachine gun in his hand. Ma Qian'an heard that Su Jigui had already used up two bullet disks in just a few minutes, almost all of them were long shots, and there were few short shots. As an old soldier using a gun like this, it proved that he was facing an enemy's attack with an advantage. Short shots could not stop the enemy's charge at all, and he could only use a crazy long shot rain to stop the enemy's charge.
But if this continues, the bullets of the seventh squadron, which was broken in less than half an hour, will be used up. What should I do then? Do I use my teeth?
"Xiaoguang, give me a drum!" Ma Qian'an heard Su Jigui screaming, probably because the soldiers around him wanted bullets.
"The bullet is gone! There is still a grenade." The soldier calling Xiaoguang next to him shouted in a crying voice.
"Damn it! Use a pistol!"
The situation is extremely critical and is about to enter a hand-to-hand battle. Ma Qian'an jumped in an anxious manner and cursed: "Su Jigui, you are so weak that you are so weak, hurry up and take your people back and get closer to me! I will shoot you if I don't listen to the order!"
"Click!" The sound of the walkie-phone broke. I don't know if it was destroyed or whether Su Jigui refused to execute the order and turned it off.
I! I was so angry that I was so angry! The Seventh Squadron was crazy! I didn't even listen to my words. If this goes on, the Seventh Squadron will be finished. Ma Qian'an kicked the big tree beside him, shaking the leaves rustling.
In just one second, Ma Qian'an made a decision to counterattack! He rescued the remnants of the Seventh Squadron, and he could not watch the Seventh Squadron being destroyed by the Japanese.
The two new recruits were not good at combat effectiveness, and Ma Qian'an did not want to take them into the battlefield, so he ordered Li Fengshan to lead the two squadrons to the east as planned.
He was going to lead the first and tenth squadrons to rescue the siege. As long as the power was used ingeniously, he would hit the Japanese hard, and it would still be possible to temporarily confuse the Japanese. As long as the Japanese relaxed, they would be very sure to rescue the seventh squadron.
Li Fengshan was very angry and argued with Ma Qian'an with a loud voice, "No! Commander, you are too partial. You are just gilding on your face. How can you always let you go about showing your face? You have to give the old comrades some chance, right?"
Ma Qianan patted his old comrades on the shoulder speechlessly, saying nothing, but just looked at him with an unquestionable look.
Li Fengshan, who knew Ma Qian'an, was soon defeated. At this time, silence was better than audio. Ma Qian'an was determined to make a move and could not change it. He would be regarded as disobeying orders if he was unintentional or kind-hearted.
The soldiers soon learned about the difficulties faced by the 7th Squadron. They all looked at Ma Qian'an with a solemn expression, their eyes full of desire.
Ma Qian'an looked around and was very satisfied with their high morale. He was full of energy from the Dantian and let out a roar: "First Squadron, Tenth Squadron, get on the horse!"
Wow! The soldiers excitedly rolled onto the horse neatly, and followed Ma Qian'an's command and whistled along the rugged foot of the mountain and rushed back to the road ahead.
