Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 123: Soldiers sent to Anton

The equipment of the guards directly under the command of the commander, Liu Tiehan and Qiuquan are equipped according to the highest level that exceeds that of the troops.

Each detachment is equipped with four Czech-style light machine guns, four grenade launchers, two mortars, and sixteen Type 100 submachine guns. When the number of troops increases, more can be added, and the rest are sniper riflemen.

Each person has a shell gun, and each soldier must carry 1,000 rounds of ammunition, the machine gunner must carry 4,000 rounds, mortar shells are guaranteed to be 30 rounds per gun, and each person must carry eight grenades.

Good guy, not counting other equipment, the weight of each soldier is about tens of kilograms. Fortunately, the soldiers of the special operations detachment have laid down the old foundation. Otherwise, walking would be difficult, let alone marching and fighting.

In this way, it took a week of adaptive training for the soldiers to adapt to the sudden increase in weight. With such equipment and such soldiers, as long as they are not attacked by sneak attacks, it will really be hard for one or two groups of Japanese soldiers to get rid of them!

Qiuquan also conducted targeted training for anti-sneak attacks. Liu Tiehan and Qiuquan were scared. Who can guarantee that the little devil won't stage a beheading operation? If this happens again, I'm afraid they won't be so lucky.

.

Of course, all of this was hidden from Tang Qiuli. According to the commander's temper, there must be a hundred people who disagree. Why are there so many people around me? I'm not a piece of paper.

Twenty days later, Tang Qiuli's injury finally recovered and he could move around and ride horses without any problem, but he could not do too strenuous exercise.

Liu Tiehan immediately informed all the troops of the good news. Subsequently, congratulatory telegrams from each unit came one after another, and the town was immersed in joy.

During dinner, the troops specially added some delicious dishes, and Liu Tiehan made an exception and approved that all soldiers drink some wine to celebrate the commander's complete recovery, except of course the troops responsible for security.

After Xiaoling gave him permission to move freely, the first thing he did was to bring all the information for so many days and read it carefully. In order to let him rest in peace, Liu Tiehan never came to disturb him unless it was something very important.

he.

A piece of intelligence sent back by the reconnaissance team two days ago caught his attention. The intelligence stated that the Japanese encirclement of the western region of South Manchuria had been completed, and they were adopting centripetal search tactics to gradually narrow the encirclement.

The Japanese have learned lessons from the past and become more cautious. In order to prevent individual troops from rushing in alone and being wiped out by the Blood Hand Regiment, the Japanese are divided into regiments and are required to march fifteen to twenty kilometers every day and camp before five o'clock in the afternoon.

.

The horizontal distance between each regiment should not exceed fifteen kilometers. Even the gap of fifteen kilometers should be filled with small groups of troops. If one point is attacked, the other points will arrive immediately.

The nearest Japs on the West Road were still a day and a night away from the current town. After reading the information, Tang Qiuli took a breath of air, the Japs were really poisonous!

This is called a widening net-style centripetal sweep, with regiment-sized troops as connecting points and small groups of troops as net ropes. If one point is touched, the entire line will be shaken. Troops from all walks of life will quickly shrink, tightly surrounding the opponent, and then the entire line will be shaken.

annihilate.

Tang Qiuli had a feeling of déjà vu. He really doubted whether that old devil Okamura Neiji had served as the supreme commander of the Kwantung Army. This was what Okamura Neiji did when he raided the Eighth Route Army base areas in the Jizhong Plain!

He stared at the map and calculated repeatedly. Even when Xiaoling came to ask him to eat, he didn't respond. Xiaoling saw him like this and knew that he was thinking about important issues, so she didn't disturb him and quietly brought the food to the table.

When he was lighting the lamp, he was still thinking and weighing, without taking a bite of the food. Xiaoling came in and saw this scene, and sat with him silently.

Tang Qiuli suddenly raised his head and stared blankly at Xiaoling's face, which made Xiaoling confused. He stared at it for a while, strode to the map, and punched a place where he pointed.

——Anton!

He immediately called the correspondent and asked for deputy commander Liu and detachment leader Li and detachment leader Tang to come here for a meeting.

The correspondent trotted away. Tang Qiuli seemed to be relieved of a heavy burden and looked extremely relaxed. Seeing that there was no one in the room, Xiaoling looked as pretty as a flower under the lamp. He hugged her and kissed her deeply, and even said, "

You are truly my lucky star!”

Xiaoling is really confused. You looked at me stupidly for a while, how did you become a lucky star?

Liu Tiehan, Li Honggang, and Qiuquan rushed over in a hurry. These three people had been very anxious for the past few days. They saw the intelligence before Tang Qiuli. The Japanese army was approaching the border. What should be the next step?

After thinking about it for two days, there was no very solid plan. I wanted to find the commander to discuss it tonight, but just in time, the commander sent a correspondent to call them.

Tang Qiuli explained his idea and explained the rationale in detail. Several people were very impressed. Then, he added some details, and the plan was finalized.

The specific content is that the troops jumped out of the Japanese encirclement, continued to advance westward, along the China-North Korea border, and attacked the seaport city of Andong in Fengtian Province. Since they wanted to give the main force a chance to launch a strategy in Eastern Manchuria and gain time, they had to attack the Japanese.

The farther away the main force is from Dongman, the better.

Of course, attacking Fengtian is the best way. If you attack the enemy, you will save it. But attacking Fengtian City with these few thousand people is almost like sending death. Tang Qiuli has not yet had a high fever.

The advantage is that traveling along the Yalu River, with North Korea on the other side, the Japanese have almost no defenses. They can avoid the enemy on one side, bypass large towns heavily defended by the Japanese, and avoid losing troops on the way.

The disadvantage is that most of the marching routes are in mountainous areas and the conditions are relatively difficult.

As for how to get through the Japanese encirclement, Tang Qiuli said to Qiuquan with a smile: "Brother Qiuquan, it's up to you!" Qiuquan thought about it and nodded, no problem.

Tang Qiuli continued: "As long as there is a gap of three to five kilometers, it will be enough to ensure that before the troops exchange fire with the Japanese, the Japanese will not notice that the troops have escaped from the encirclement."

Qiuquan seemed confident and confident.

After the plan was finalized, everyone split up and prepared overnight.

Tang Qiuli also sent a telegram to the main force waiting in cover in the edge of East Manchuria, instructing the next course of action. Su Jingfeng detachment entered the Hailin area, Han Railway detachment entered the Ning'an area, and Yuan Jinghao detachment entered the Ning'an area.

Birch forest area.

The cavalry detachment Zheng Yong, following the actions of Chief of Staff Feng Jiwu, formed a siege on Mudanjiang, but did not attack. Each detachment used the brigade as a unit to reduce the target, disperse the operations, mobilize the masses extensively, expand the number of troops, reconnaissance of the enemy, and concealment and standby.

.

After Su Jingfeng's detachment started, they waited for the order. When the order was issued, they quickly captured Mudanjiang and then expanded the results.

The next day, the troops bid farewell to the people in the town and told the people that they must not leak the news that the troops were stationed here, lest the Japanese take revenge. Everyone had a deep relationship with the troops, and they were reluctant to leave and sent them far away.

It was not only the soldiers who were as close as a family who were sent away, but also their more than 300 descendants. "How many people have fought in ancient times?" How many of these good men can return to the homeland where they were born and raised?

After saying goodbye with tears, the new soldiers who left home for the first time looked back frequently with tears in their eyes. Their ears were still ringing with the earnest advice of their elderly parents, young siblings, and passionate lovers. Their eager tears flashed before their eyes, and they were familiar with their homeland.

He looked up and saw the fierce war flag fluttering in the wind under the morning sun. He touched the steel gun on his shoulder and resolutely followed Tang Qiuli on the bloody journey of thousands of miles.

By the time the troops marched into the evening, they had already reached the outskirts of the Japanese encirclement. They were all hidden in the lush forest. The four hooves of the war horses were wrapped with thick cloth to prevent them from making any noise.

Commanders at all levels nervously stood among the soldiers and reiterated their orders. Under no circumstances were they allowed to make a sound. Even if bullets hit their bodies, they must stand firm. Anyone who violated the rules would be executed immediately.

It is no wonder that Liu Tiehan issued such an order. If a team of more than 5,000 people is not careful, the whole army may be destroyed. The army is shrouded in an atmosphere of tension.

Especially the new soldiers felt a little breathless and their hearts were beating fast. Looking at the old soldiers, they seemed to be fine, and some even started to take a nap!

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps in front of them, and through the gap in the forest, it was clearly seen that there were more than twenty Japanese, holding guns in their hands, in a battle formation, walking directly towards the hiding place of the troops.

These Japanese soldiers suddenly let out a few bird calls, which were very clear and loud in the silent mountain forest. The new soldiers felt nervous. The Japanese soldiers had discovered us. They were already very nervous and they subconsciously pulled the trigger.

The old soldier next to him snatched his gun away at once.

These new soldiers are confused. Why not let them shoot? Seeing that the Japanese are about to step on them? This is urgent!

These old soldiers continued to do whatever they were supposed to do. They just took the bullets out of the guns and gave the guns back to the new recruits.

Qiuquan stood up from his hiding place and walked towards the Japanese soldiers. After chatting with them for a few words, he made a gesture for the troops to pass quickly.

The troops of more than 5,000 people were like a lurking undercurrent, moving swiftly and silently along a canyon. It was just the new recruits who couldn't help but look at the Japanese soldiers as they passed by them.

I kept thinking in my heart, is it possible that our detachment leader is related to the Japanese and has become friends with them? Otherwise, why did these Japanese soldiers not react at all when they saw the troops passing by?

The mystery was not solved until all the troops returned to the base for repairs. These recruits had already experienced the test of war and quickly grew into qualified soldiers of the special detachment.

It turned out that Qiuquan ordered the soldiers of the reconnaissance unit who had been behind the Japs and were responsible for reconnaissance and monitoring the Japs' movements to find out the ways and signals between the Japs to communicate with each other. These soldiers could speak fluent Japanese and were also special forces members.

One of the basic skills that must be mastered.

Then, choose a road suitable for large troops to pass through covertly, quietly touch off a small group of Japs, put on Japs uniforms, and continue to maintain contact with the Japs on both sides.

As the troops were advancing, they heard the shouts, contact sounds, and the sound of horse hooves from the Japs on both sides of the canyon from time to time. The recruits were sweating in their palms. It was really thrilling.
