Chapter 294: Be ruthless
Chapter 294: Better
In Gannan, the command of the West Road Corps, Chen Guang had been walking around the radio station for the whole morning with his hands on his back.
In 7 days, the forces of the two columns of the West Route Corps were delayed in Gannan for 7 days, which was definitely a huge concern for Chen Guang.
Tens of thousands of troops, people eat horses and feed them, and no matter how much food and money is, they cannot afford it.
In addition, an encounter from time to time, this is the important reason that aroused a sense of evil fire in Chen Guang's heart. The casualties of the troops were increasing, but there was no supply for a long time. It was mainly the replenishment of ammunition. When fighting with the Japanese, the Japanese became more and more energetic. Before they died in battle, they had to harm the ammunition.
This made the Western Road Legion's idea of relying on seizure to maintain combat, and it became a bubble.
However, the large amount of military supplies carried are used to use a little less. Once the ammunition is exhausted, you don’t have to think about it. It must be the time for the Japanese to attack.
The steel gun in his hand has no bullets, so he still fights like this!
What made Chen Guang very sad was that the soldiers of the three columns were all elite troops, and sacrificing an old soldier was a huge loss to the revolution. You should know that as long as there is a base, an old soldier could lead at least one new soldier in a squad. As long as he had enough training, these troops could set foot on the battlefield and become a member of the main force.
Whether it is Zeng Yiyang or Chen Guang, the troops commanded are not ordinary guerrillas, but field troops.
It's the main force!
When a soldier enters the main force, the first thing he needs to do is not learn how to fight, but how to save himself on the premise of eliminating the enemy on the battlefield. This requires that every soldier, before entering the main force, is a new recruit who has passed the training. The only thing he lacks is that he has not experienced the test of blood and fire on the battlefield.
Chen Guang understood that once the Western Legion loses its ability to attack and even becomes weak in resistance, it is when it is besieged by several times the Japanese army.
At that time, even if the Kwantung Army made some major sacrifices, it would concentrate all the forces that could be mobilized and began to encircle and suppress the Western Legion. Chen Guang, who had a strong personality, would definitely not allow it. Under his command, the Western Legion was defeated and could not form a single army.
"Commander, Mongolian cavalry appeared in Fengtouling area, less than 50 kilometers away from the headquarters. Is it..."
"Are you asking me to escape?" Chen Guang raised his eyebrows and made this voice from the root of his teeth. The tone was full of anger, which made Wang Bingzhang a little embarrassed. Although the situation was severe, it was not too difficult for the Western Legion. He had experienced it when he was more difficult than this. On the contrary, before he was about to meet with General Zeng, he was beaten to a small setback at the location, which was obviously unreasonable.
Chen Guang must be surrounded by military personnel. When cavalrymen appear dozens of kilometers away, they will naturally choose a safer method.
The word "transfer" is a word of money.
It can be said to be the essence of guerrilla warfare. To explain it in a more popular sentence, it is 'If you can't win, run away'.
He obviously has the advantage in strength and has the main force of the 9th Column around him. How could Chen Guang agree to the practice of reducing morale? The Manchu and Mongolian cavalry either don’t come, and don’t think about leaving when they come.
This is Chen Guang's character.
"Commander Chen, our front line is too long. Although the main force 9th Column will not be afraid of the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry, to put it bluntly, these white dogs are just the goods to send war horses to the main force. What I am worried about is the Japanese cavalry behind them." Wang Bingzhang's concern was revealed at this moment, and he served as the chief of staff under a strong military chief, and often wandered in dilemma.
The failure to break through the Japanese defense line several times has put Chen Guang under tremendous pressure.
Although the main force headed north to solve the situation where the Kwantung Army blocked the river and defended it, in Nahe, Buxi and other places, there were ravines everywhere, and with the rainy season approaching, the river water level generally rose.
Once the main force is trapped, the detour space will be lost.
At this time, you can know without thinking that the Kwantung Cavalry Regiment, which has been missing, will swarm like flies and disperse the troops' defense lines on the plains.
The more he was in a dilemma, Chen Guang understood that he could either use his sword to cut his opponent to the ground first, nor would he have to cut all his opponents one by one. As long as he eliminated a few small forces cleanly, he could shock most of the enemies.
Thinking of this, Chen Guang said seriously: "Record the order!"
"Order the main force of the 9th Column to set off in the evening and form a siege against the Manchu and Mongolian puppet troops before dawn tomorrow, and kill all the bitch who are raised by this group of bitch!"
"Yes! I'll inform Commander Wang immediately!" Seeing that things were not violated, Wang Bingzhang changed his mindset and fully cooperated with Chen Guang's combat command.
"etc……"
After Wang Bingzhang turned around, Chen Guang suddenly stopped the other party and said in a stressful tone: "If Wang Bingnan leads the team himself, he must fight the battle neatly. It doesn't matter if he is more ruthless. The key is to make those Manchu and Mongolian princes afraid."
In fact, it is the same for anyone to lead the team to deal with the Manchu and Mongolian puppet troops.
Because unlike other puppet troops, the Manchu and Mongolian puppet troops were all private soldiers of the Manchu and Princes left in the northeast of the Qing Dynasty. These troops were usually a deterrent to their control strength. In addition to suppressing civilians who did not accept their enslavement, they also included the scope of strength.
Although Puyi became the emperor in the puppet Manchukuo.
But this son emperor was so cowardly that he couldn't even control his own concubines. Not to mention working hard to restore the rule of the Eight Banners. Every week, Puyi would wait for the summons of the commander of the Kwantung Army with a melancholy face, and then, most of the day, he would pretend to be loyal to the sound of the heavenly voice of the Shangguo in his cliché of promoting the *** country.
Even the emperor became such a bear, and the princes and ministers were even more unbearable.
Those who have territory and strength can also change to local emperors. If they don’t even have the strength to do so, in the end, those who don’t even have enough money to be left, except to ask for a bowl of rice on the street, they can only be a lackey for the *** people.
Besides, if you make a living under the *** people, you will be very sad. If you are a little negligent, you will have life worries.
We must preserve our strength and give face to the people.
These princes on the grassland all showed the caution of the grassland wolf. They were very wise to choose to stop 50 kilometers away from the main force of the West Road Legion. Of course, they also chose appropriate reasons to consolidate the defense line.
For the cavalry, consolidating the defense line is a bit nonsense.
However, the *** people didn't seem to care. As the highest commander of the Kwantung Army in Longjiang, Seiichi Kita did not want the Manchu and Mongolian soldiers to rush before the "Heroic Imperial Army". It seemed that this would hit the morale of more than 20,000 officers and soldiers of the 14th Division.
Since the Japanese army, due to the military strength and the reconstruction of the new division, the 14th Division has also been included in the reconstruction of the third division. But in general, for a Class A Division with a total force of nearly 30,000, losing an infantry in a regiment will not bring about earth-shaking changes.
On the contrary, the field capabilities of the next three wings have been significantly improved.
In particular, the infantry of each regiment will receive more artillery fire strengthening, and the cavalry scouts will join.
After reducing the 4,000 troops, the 14th Division's actual combat capability has improved significantly.
This made Lieutenant General Kita Sei extremely happy. He couldn't help but roared over and over again. His chance came. Unlike the cavalry units under the Kwantung Army, the cavalry in Manchu and Mongolia did not have many heavy weapons. Not to mention that in the eyes of the 14th Division, even ordinary Kwantung Army garrison troops would look down on such friendly forces, and how much help could they bring to them.
Seiichi Kita is very simple. As long as he traps Chen Guang, the tiger, he has achieved his short-term goal.
As for the Western Corps that destroyed Chen Guang, the troops in his hands were still a little thin, and Longjiang was vast and sparsely populated, but the railway line was long and needed heavy troops to guard along the line. And the more than 20,000 troops in Kita Sei were also distributed everywhere like beans. In addition, the continuous increase in the defense of Nenjiang River, the 14th Division had no soldiers or soldiers to call.
It is obviously very slim to pin the victory on the opponent's mistakes.
At the beginning, Seiichi Kita really hoped to catch up with such good luck. In Chen Guang's words, "Seichi Kita Kita doesn't know how powerful I am."
This said exudes a sense of domineeringness. Of course, although Seiichi Kita has heard of Chen Guang's power, for him, an opponent he has never fought is just the target of his victory, not a threat. When Chen Guang just led his troops and took down Jing Xing, Seiichi Kita commanded a small group of troops to do a test.
As a result, he gasped.
The West Route Corps, led by Chen Guang, was incomparable to the 14th Division in terms of equipment. However, after the battle, its tough and unafraid military style immediately made Kita Seiji break his teeth and stammer his neck, and he took the first bitter fruit after coming to the Kwantung Army.
The attacking forces of a whole regiment, shortly after crossing Nenjiang, discovered that the 14th Division, which had won the first battle, ran wildly along the retreating 9th Column's suspicious soldiers. At this time, the mechanization of the 14th Division was soon reflected, almost following the stance point, and then entered the ambush circle. After the battle, the three infantry brigades became remnants. If Seiichi Kita, even these remnants would not be able to handle.
After one battle, the 14th Division lost thousands of people, which was a huge blow to Seiichi Kita.
With a famous scholar, Chen Guang was regarded as the top enemy by the Japanese generals stationed in Shandong. In the Kwantung Army, Zeng Yiyang was the top enemy. Chen Guang's power was not known yet, so naturally someone needed to verify it.
This unlucky guy was so greedy that Kita Seiichi was over.
It is also because of the bad luck of Kita Seiichi. In Shandong, although Chen Guang was fighting in the base area, he had the foundation of the common people, and the troops were familiar with the terrain. With all kinds of conveniences, the Japanese encirclement and suppression troops were repeatedly frustrated. However, Chen Guang had always been a bitter life of counting salt grains to make soup, and the troops in his hands were only two main groups. As now, the three main columns were all first-class elite soldiers.
The 14th Division came over, so naturally I can't be polite.
It must be said that when the celebration meeting was held, Chen Guang lost his temper because he did not completely wipe out the 59th Regiment of the 14th Division. The celebration meeting almost became a critical meeting.
One mistake can bring wisdom.
With the lesson of Jing Xing being ambushed, Kita Seiichi also understood a truth that the 14th Division was not invincible. So he was happy to eat and drink in Qiqihar City every day, waiting for the main force of the Kwantung Army to head north and encircle and suppress Chen Guang's regiment.
Although the waiting time was very uncomfortable, Seiichi Kita still suppressed his ambition.
Sending Manchu and Mongolian cavalry to move in areas where Chen Guang might break through, as long as Chen Guang was dragged down, it would be a great achievement. After suffering a loss, Kita Seiichi had long changed his mindset. He said that he wanted to eliminate Chen Guang on the west bank of the Nenjiang River, and became a matter of time for the main force of the Kwantung Army to join the Chen Guang army to gain time.
It seemed that the war on the West Road could not be maintained without him.
The most important thing is that Chen Guang cannot leave. If he wants to break through the Nenjiang defense line, there is no hope in the Qiqihar area. He can only go north, cross the plain area upstream of the Nenjiang River, and then turn back into Keshan and Yangjiadian areas.
Chen Guang must be prepared to come back at a heavy price because he is not familiar with the place and has no support.
Not only that, a force must be sent to organize defense lines in the Baicheng area, and this force is not as large as the number of people. At least it is the force of a brigade. Once the main force jumps out of the Japanese defense line, this force will become the target of the Japanese's encirclement and suppression, and in the end, it will be very likely to be destroyed in the end. This is a decision that Chen Guang could not make any decision, and he used the sacrifice of one part of the people to exchange for the lives of another part of the people.
Chen Guang believed that the situation was not so bad.
But he absolutely cannot tolerate that those Manchu and Mongolian cavalry could stab him in the back when the Japanese attacked. The best choice was to eat them in one bite before the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry units reacted.
The princes who lost their private soldiers will no longer be beasts with fangs, but sheep.
Even in the short term, the West Route Corps cannot include the entire north of Nenjiang into the category of the liberated area. But it can definitely take advantage of a big victory to sprinkle fire on this desert grassland, waiting for the arrival of a real counterattack.
Although he is on the front line, Seiichi Kita still lives very freely.
Apart from the headache caused by the hangover that makes him feel dazed when he wakes up in the morning, it will be a wonderful start.
Touch——, the wooden door could not withstand the impact of people and made a regrettable struggle. As the Japanese door was opened, Seiichi Kita appeared at the door with a panic look on his face. Obviously, it was apart from the big thing. Otherwise, he would not be so panic.
"Has Chen Guang's regiment attacked the Nenjiang defense line?"
The inquiry in a bad tone made the subordinate Heiichiro wake up. He was in the bedroom of the division commander. He said that he was on the front line, and the division commander did not have much power. After all, in the military camp, except for confidential information, no secret is a secret.
"No, the Nenjiang defense line is very stable." Heiichiro of the disciple touched the sweat on his forehead and realized that he had actually run from the military camp.
