Age of Conquest Reborn

Although at the Andong Military-Governmental Joint Meeting, Major General Jiang Xianliang, the commander of the 6th Marine Brigade stationed in Andong, and Song Geping, the mayor of Andong City Hall, had a heated argument. The two sides' ideas were completely opposite and they could not talk about it together.

go.

Jiang Xianliang returned to the brigade headquarters. After losing his temper, most of his anger had subsided. There was no steel and concrete, but in the face of the Japanese defenses in the direction of Fengtian, he had to continue building them, even though in his heart he disagreed with it.

, "Do the little devils still have the strength to counterattack Anton? Please bless their bullshit emperor. If we don't attack Fengtian, our auspicious stars will be shining brightly. It will be unnecessary to build fortifications in Anton!" This is Jiang Xianliang's real thought.

However, this was an order from both the division commander and the headquarters. Jiang Xianliang did not dare to slack off at all. Otherwise, he would not have argued with Song Geping so much that he wanted to use guns. As for his request to drop the 6th Brigade to the battlefield in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, there was no trace of it.

thing,

It's nothing more than angry words. If he really sends a telegram to Commander Han, he will receive a violent reprimand. "Chief of Staff, forget about sending a telegram to the Commander. We don't expect the Andong City Government!" he said to

Chief of Staff Huo Shoushan said.

Huo Shoushan smiled and replied: "Brigade commander, I have no intention of sending this telegram to the commander and sending it to the commander's door to find him for training. Let's not do it! I thought about it, brigade commander, and I will come forward to find Song Shi.

Long communication, since the Andong City Government cannot meet our basic needs, it can do its best to provide part of it first, right? Let’s use these reinforced concrete to build some anti-blast holes on the second position first, and we will find ways to do the rest later.

solve!

"Okay!" Jiang Xianliang slammed the table and praised, "That's a good idea. Chief of Staff, it's better for you to deal with that guy surnamed Song. We two have a problem. We glared at each other as soon as we met. We can't even say more than three words. Keep it safe."

If the quarrel breaks out, I won't bother to see him. So, you go to the city hall immediately, I will take the guard company, and you will select a few staff officers from the staff office who are proficient in position defense warfare. Come with me to the position of the regiment!

"

"Whether the kid dares to call is one thing. Whether we are prepared or not is another matter. Make arrangements and I will leave now. In addition, let the Communications Department arrange two radio stations to follow me.

If anything happens, use the radio to contact us!"

Jiang Xianliang said angrily. Ten minutes later, a dozen trucks full of soldiers, an armored command vehicle, and several military jeeps quickly drove out of Andong City and headed towards Fenghuang Mountain in the northeast of Andong.

It is the defense area of ​​the 1st Regiment of the 6th Brigade and the destination of Jiang Xianliang's trip.

More than three hours later, more than a dozen large trucks loaded with steel, cement and other construction materials, escorted by a platoon of troops from the Andong Security Command, also drove out of Andong City and headed towards Fenghuang Mountain. This is

Song Geping, the mayor of Andong, worked hard and tried his best to raise the materials needed for the Sixth Brigade's fortifications in the shortest possible time.

Song Geping's move was not because he was worried about any threats from Jiang Xianliang, but out of a sense of responsibility. In particular, the words of Colonel He Qifeng, the commander of the Anton Garrison, greatly touched him. His bad impression of Jiang Xianliang did not mean that he had a bad personal impression of Jiang Xianliang.

He could watch the soldiers of the Sixth Brigade resist the Japanese attack in unreinforced fortifications, although he did not believe that the Japanese army was still capable of attacking on the Liaodong Peninsula.

These dozen trucks of reinforced concrete and other building materials were forcibly purchased by Song Geping from some merchants in Andong City using the authority of the mayor. Of course, the current Andong City Government does not have operating funds yet.

What was left to the merchants was an IOU stamped with the city government's seal and signed by the mayor. This somewhat made the merchants who were reluctant to sell supplies feel a little reassured.

It is really not easy for the merchants in Anton. During the Japanese rule, military coupons and other things became a means for the Japanese to plunder the merchants in Anton. Now, the Japanese have been beaten away, and the military supplies in their hands are

Coupons and military tickets have become one by one

Waste paper, from the bottom of my heart, I am not willing to accept the IOU issued by the mayor of the newly established city government, but due to the power of power, coupled with the actions of the new city government, even though it has only been a few days,

, definitely different from what the Japanese do.

In this way, Song Geping used the Andong City Government and his own reputation to send all the reinforced concrete that could be collected on the market to the frontline troops of the Sixth Brigade. As for the larger quantity, he could only wait for support from other regions.

, In what Song Geping said to his partner, the garrison commander He Qifeng, "I raised the building materials based on the credibility of the Andong City Government and myself, not for the sake of that Jiang Xianliang, but for the sake of the Sixth

For the sake of the brigade soldiers!"

Jiang Xianliang, the commander of the 6th Brigade who was rushing to the First Regiment in Fenghuang Mountain, had no idea about this. Otherwise, even if he was not moved, he would still be displeased with Mayor Song Geping and Song. His impression was somewhat

Change!

Fenghuang Mountain is more than 20 kilometers north of Andong. The Pushi River flows around the front of the mountain. It is said to be a mountain, but in fact it is just a long ridge of earth. The highest peak is called Fenghuang Mountain, with an altitude of only more than 200 meters.

, this is the only way to Anton,

It is also the only natural terrain that can be used north of Andong. Since the Japanese army is in the direction of Fengtian in the north, Major General Jiang Xianliang, commander of the 6th Brigade, placed the most powerful first regiment here. Further north, it is

The defense areas of the second and third regiments.

It was late spring, and there was no shortage of rain in the Liaodong Peninsula. The vegetation on the ridges around Phoenix Mountain was dense. There were clumps of shrubs or tall and dense woods everywhere. Even the wormwood was waist deep.

, standing on the heights of Phoenix Mountain, you can have a clear view of the terrain in the direction of Fengtian. It is impossible for the large corps to move covertly. Therefore, the main position of the first regiment relies on the main peak of Phoenix Mountain, stretching to the left and right wings, with four battalions.

Arrange them in order.

It took Jiang Xianliang less than an hour to arrive at the 1st Regiment's position. When he got off the bus, he took the main officers of the 1st Regiment to the main position and dug deep while standing there.

Very standard, but all earthy

In front of the trench, Jiang Xianliang frowned and said to Colonel Meng Jianzhu, the commander of the first regiment: "Commander Meng, the trenches of your regiment are dug to a very standard, but how many artillery shells can such a trench withstand?

Have you considered it?"

There was strong dissatisfaction in Jiang Xianliang's tone. They were all people rolling over on the battlefield. As far as the trenches were concerned, to put it bluntly, it was useless. The little devil couldn't use a few artillery shells.

, can flatten the trenches. Even if the soldiers are not hit by the shells, they will be buried by the soil. I am afraid that if a Japanese field artillery regiment fires a salvo, a group of trenches will be flattened.

Colonel Meng Jianzhu, the commander of the first regiment, said aggrievedly: "Brigade commander, we are all people who fought on the battlefield. I don't know how this trench is like. But look, there is not even a decent stone in this damn place."

I can't find any, so what can I do to build fortifications? I can only use local materials and cut down more trees, but I can't do anything about it. If there is enough steel and concrete, this place will be made of iron and steel!"

Jiang Xianliang sighed silently, "These are the things that are missing, but there is nothing I can do about it. For the sake of steel and concrete, I almost got into a fight with that Song Geping!" He thought to himself.

Seeing that Meng Jianzhu was still complaining, he said impatiently: "Okay, stop complaining. It's not just your group. Our Sixth Brigade from top to bottom doesn't have that kind of thing. If you have any difficulties, just overcome them."

Dig some communication trenches, and once the first trench is destroyed by the Japs' artillery fire, immediately move it to the backup fortifications. In addition, dig more shelters and anti-gun holes, don't you use inexhaustible big trees!"

Jiang Xianliang felt a little better when he arrived at the regiment headquarters. The regiment headquarters dug absolutely qualified. They dug a big hole on the spot and covered it with several layers of trees, one layer of trees and one layer of soil. According to Jiang Xianliang's vision

Look, it's enough to withstand the continuous bombardment of Japanese heavy artillery.

After coming out of the first regiment, Jiang Xianliang looked at the positions of the second regiment and the third regiment. Wherever he went, everything he saw was quite satisfactory. Finally, when he arrived at the brigade heavy artillery regiment deployed behind the first-line position, he saw

It was getting late, and the burning clouds reflected half of the sky red. The evening wind blew, and the vegetation on the wilderness undulated like waves. It was a peaceful late spring time everywhere.

However, for some reason, Jiang Xianliang suddenly felt a throbbing feeling in his heart. It was an indescribable feeling. He always felt that the tranquility in front of him had an unreal and illusive feeling. He felt a little uneasy, so he

Rejecting the offer of the commander of the artillery regiment to stay, he returned to the first regiment under the afterglow of the setting sun. That night, he stayed at the headquarters of the first regiment.

Before going to bed, Jiang Xianliang called the regiment commander Meng Jianzhu and ordered him to set up a security post two kilometers ahead of the main position. In fact, he did not need to order. It was an old tradition of the independent division troops. The troops camped in camps or positions, and the security range was at least

It's two kilometers away.

The setting sun faded away its last rays, and the dark night enveloped the Liaodong Peninsula. The entire Phoenix Mountain area was also in silence. At about two o'clock in the morning that night, on the open land in front of Phoenix Mountain,

Waist-deep in the wormwood and beside the bushes, dozens of black shadows appeared in groups of three, heading towards the main position of Phoenix Mountain.

These shadows had obviously gone through rigorous training. Along the way, the sentry sent out by the first regiment had already maintained sufficient vigilance. However, these shadows were obviously more professional. They quietly touched behind the sentry and used the sharp dagger in an instant.

The young life of the sentry was taken away. The same scene was played out everywhere at the front of the Fenghuang Mountain Regiment. Neither Jiang Xianliang, commander of the 6th Brigade, nor Meng Jianzhu, commander of the 1st Regiment, expected that the sentry who went out on guard would be captured.

Removed quietly.

An hour later, a dark figure carrying a radio on his back turned on the radio and sent out a signal. Dozens of minutes later, more dark figures appeared in the fields with dense vegetation, and they were carrying some similar to ordinary mortars.

Mortars are very different in appearance.
