Rise From Eight Hundred
Chapter 875 Xiao Tang and Xiao Wang! (Please give me a monthly pass at the end of the month!)
But obviously, Major Xiao Ding still doesn’t quite understand his old superior and leader!
Holding a cigarette in his left hand and akimbo with his right hand, the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, smoking from his mouth, looked into the distance with a 'golden light' in his eyes!
Is this man named Tang here to deliver equipment to the 22nd Army and the 47th Army? A group! How many guns and bullets can it carry? Bai Gouzi, he is indeed a rich man!
When I join the army, don't I want to fight against the rich and share my land with them?
When a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes fights against his boss and subordinates, it is just for cigarettes, wine, tea and the like. He is not so restrained when it comes to 'rich people'. If he is an enemy, he usually wants things as well as his life.
...
Tang Dao, who was dozens of miles away, felt an inexplicable chill on his back!
I couldn't help but think of the image of Li Youbing in Liangjian, a thief with thick eyebrows and big eyes, as bad-tempered as a stone in a latrine, but as cunning as an old fox and as shameless as a thief.
Good guy, it turns out that the screenwriter didn't make it up. Lao Wang was probably thinking about himself! Tang Dao deliberately showed off to that master, and basically came to a conclusion.
February 17, 1938!
The Battle of Dongyangguan, which broke out 28 miles east of Licheng, ended with the retreat of the 47th Army under the 22nd Army!
In this battle, China participated in an infantry division under the 22nd Group Army 47, and most of the infantry regiments under the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division, with a total strength of 12,000 people; the Japanese side invested two infantry regiments under the 108th Division plus attached artillery. A total of nine thousand people including engineers, engineers, and baggage troops.
In order to compete for this most important pass leading to Licheng County, the Japanese army invested almost as much force as the Chinese, especially when the main force of the Chinese was an infantry division of the Sichuan Army with poor equipment. In the past, this was absolutely extremely rare.
In fact, the Japanese army in North China paid enough attention to it, which was also the main factor that enabled them to win this battle.
Although this infantry division under the 47th Army had almost no heavy weapons, it had an extremely firm will to fight. It built three fortifications based on the difficult terrain. With the cooperation and containment of friendly forces, it fought bloody battles with the Japanese army equipped with aircraft and artillery for nearly three days. As the defenders, they suffered more than 2,000 casualties and still persisted.
Even while holding on, they would send elite units to conduct sneak attacks on the Japanese army, such as an infantry platoon under the division. Because the Japanese army occupied the high point Beiding Mountain on the morning of the 17th, they set up infantry artillery on the top of the mountain to target them. The Sichuan Army's positions were bombarded indiscriminately, resulting in heavy casualties. The infantry platoon leader, who was the closest position to the top of the mountain and was ordered to retreat, resolutely led his only 30 soldiers to fight back against the top of the mountain.
With abundant troops, the Japanese army was extremely cautious about artillery protection. More than two infantry squadrons of Japanese infantry established a defense line on the top of the mountain.
It is obvious that the impact of 30 Chinese soldiers on this defense line is like moths rushing to the flame!
But they did it anyway, without hesitation.
Because of the appearance of this small infantry platoon, the Japanese artillery position on the top of the mountain was in panic, and the bombardment was suspended for more than half an hour.
The infantry platoon will be completely wiped out!
The furious Japanese soldiers cut off the heads of the sacrificed Chinese soldiers with bayonets and hung them on a tree!
In the sight of the officers and soldiers at Dongyangguan, hundreds of meters away, blood dyed the white grass on the hillside red, the torn cotton coats were flying in all directions, and the hooded straw sandals were hanging among the thorns on the hillside. The tragic scene was heart-wrenching. Can't bear to see it.
"Fight bloody to the end!" The roars on the Dongyangguan battlefield are said to still be vaguely heard by people standing on the ruins of this war decades later.
Later, it was rumored that the 47th Army headquarters had originally ordered the division to retreat after completing its task of blocking the enemy. However, the commander of the division, who witnessed the brutality of the Japanese army, refused to retreat until one day later, when the division ran out of ammunition and had no choice but to withdraw from the position.
Because of these 30 infantrymen, the Japanese army sacrificed at least 200 more people in battle, which was a loss outweighing the gain.
In the end, the total casualties of the Japanese army exceeded 1,000!
In the battle report sent by the 108th Division to the North China Front Army Headquarters after the war, they were not elated just because they occupied Dongyangguan, an important road.
Because at Dongyang Pass after the war, the Japanese army spent three full days and nights just burning corpses, which was longer than the days they spent on the battlefield.
In addition, two of the three infantry squadrons used for "surprise attacks" behind enemy lines returned without success. Apart from burning down a few deserted mountain villages, they found nothing. One of them disappeared without a trace, and a large number of traitors were sent into the mountains to search for them. After asking around, there was no valuable information, and many traitors were exposed and became 'missing persons'!
In addition to consolidating the security of Licheng County, which had been designated as an important supply point in the southeastern Shanxi battlefield, this battle did not achieve the strategic outcome they wanted.
Originally, the 108th Division wanted to kill the Sichuan Infantry Division in one fell swoop to severely damage the Chinese army in southeastern Shanxi. However, obviously, the 1-for-2 battle damage shattered his expectations.
Both the Chinese and Japanese armies have retreated to their current positions, like two giant beasts that have been injured in a fight. After briefly licking their wounds and repairing them, they will fight fiercely again at a certain period of time.
This is a fact that both the Chinese and Japanese armies are aware of. One is very clear that if the invaders are not driven away, future generations will not have a good life; the other is even more aware that if the resisters are not killed, the company will be on guard day and night. I can't even sleep well, so what's the point of occupying the land for a ball?
To put it bluntly, either you die or I die, one of them has to be killed!
And Tang Dao finally met Comrade Lao Wang, the current highest commander of that unit in the Licheng area, the day after the battle.
Lao Wang, whose eyes had been shining with ‘golden light’ for several days, also saw Colonel Tang, a friendly army member who had been left out to dry for four days and was almost dried into meat.
Standing at the entrance of the village where the 772nd Regiment was stationed, Lao Wang saw Tang Dao following Zhu Sanhei almost at first sight.
No one knows what his mood was at the time, but a few words in the memoirs of this old man may give us a glimpse of it.
In his life, Lao Wang, from a soldier to a squad leader, a platoon leader, and finally to a corps commander and even a deputy commander of a military region, he himself has no idea how many soldiers he has led. He can be said to have seen countless ‘men’. In addition, it is not an era where appearance is justice. Lao Wang is like most Chinese people. The ugly ones are called ordinary, the handsome ones are called pretty boys, and the ordinary ones are still ordinary.
Face blindness, perhaps this is the case.
But today, it is absolutely an exception, especially for Comrade Lao Wang.
In the early spring of 1938, when Lao Wang first saw the man he thought was a ‘rich landlord’, whether he believed it or not, he stared at Tang Dao with his big eyes for several times.
In his memoirs, he said: That local rich man surnamed Tang really had his own unique temperament, and he looked very good!
‘This shameless guy just wanted to rob! Everyone looks like a rich man!’ After seeing this sentence in the sample book sent by his secretary, Tang Dao, who had also entered old age, rolled his eyes and added the following comment!
‘His eyes are like the stars and the bright moon, which makes people a little unpredictable!’ The old Tang Dao’s pen left a comment under this sentence, “This sentence is very short, but with Comrade Lao Wang’s own level, it is mostly polished by others!”
Tan Tai Ming Yue smiled!
‘He is neatly dressed in military uniform and tall in stature, and he looks like a good guy! With his long arms, he can definitely fight and assassinate the devils with one! However, I should be able to fight three! ’
Tang Dao responded here with…, it’s fine to praise others so much, but he also praised himself?
Perhaps, this is the real Comrade Lao Wang!
Anyway, judging from the description of Tang in Comrade Lao Wang’s not particularly real memoirs, Tang Caizhu perfectly meets Comrade Lao Wang’s aesthetic point. Apart from anything else, just his 1.8-meter-tall body and long arms.
As for the eyes that are as bright as stars and bright moons, I think it should be the work of Comrade Lao Wang’s second-year grandson, Tang Dao believes it for the time being.
From Tang Dao’s perspective, the thick-browed and big-eyed man who stood at the entrance of the village to greet him, with his burly body, is really a fierce man who picks up a big knife and fights when he disagrees with something.
That is, Comrade Lao Wang, who had ignored a certain regiment commander for four days, was a little too enthusiastic at this time.
It can’t be too much! General Li Jiayu, the commander of the 47th Army, who didn't know Comrade Lao Wang well, told Lao Wang clearly in order to prove Tang Dao that Tang Dao and the Four-Line Regiment had gone through so much trouble to bring a reorganized infantry regiment's equipment to Jindong, and asked the friendly forces to ensure their safety, and there would be a generous reward afterwards!
According to the presence of Captain Xiao Ding, at that time, Comrade Lao Wang's tears flowed from the corners of his mouth, and he patted his chest to promise the highest commander of the friendly forces that all the brothers of the Four-Line Regiment would be sent to the 47th Army intact.
Note that Comrade Lao Wang guaranteed that the people were intact, as for the goods being transported! Comrade Lao Wang dared to guarantee it with his head, he didn't say it.
The 'teacher' said that to the enemy, you must be as ruthless as the cold winter, and to friends, you must be as warm as spring!
Therefore, the courtesy that Tang Tuanzuo received at this time was so warm that he almost forgot the fact that he was left out for four days.
However, when the two big hands were tightly clasped together, a certain regiment commander felt the huge force surging into his palms, and he understood that this headache-inducing general was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
If you want to get a share of the already designated garrison, it is not enough to give some weapons and equipment. Not only does he have a big appetite, but he also doesn't have much good feelings towards his own military system.
This is normal. The officers standing here, who didn't fight with the generals of the Sichuan Army system a few years ago? Now they can stand together and laugh and talk, which has nothing to do with God. It can only be said that the timing of the Japanese coming is quite clever.
The "brothers' feud" hasn't even divided the property yet! As a result, a group of pirates came. The two brothers who were fighting each other had to pick up rakes and hatchets to kill the pirates first!
"Captain Tang, I have heard of your name a long time ago..." Comrade Lao Wang was very enthusiastic, but the opening courtesy was quite stiff.
It was particularly unkind when I heard it!
Tang Dao is indeed a celebrity now, but that is in the plain town where information is relatively developed. In the Taihang Mountains, a mountain where even birds don't lose their feathers when flying over it, who has heard of his name?
Let alone Tang Dao, I guess the Four-Line Regiment, these "mountain turtles" don't know him.
This is not just about the 129th Division that entered the Taihang Mountains in September, but also the 22nd Army that rushed all the way from northern Sichuan to eastern Shanxi.
Being able to see newspapers from a month ago is the treatment of a division commander, not to mention that a large area of northern land had already fallen in November. Even if there were Tang fans, the northern newspapers could not report the fruitful results of Tang Dao and the Four-Line Regiment!
In other words, Comrade Lao Wang's compliment was not sincere or even heartless. Not to mention Tang Dao heard it, the officers of the 772nd Regiment around him looked weird and sold it out completely.
They knew that the more shamelessly he promoted someone, the more he wanted to cheat him. As soon as the regimental leaders of the 769th, 770th, and 771st regiments heard him start to praise them, they immediately ran away, and they couldn't stop him even if they were offered cigarettes.
This is because they missed the guests! The excited eyes of several officers looking at each other were simply unrestrained.
In fact, they had too much confidence in their deputy commander!
The 386th Brigade, no, the entire 129th Division, might be better than this "strong general" type of general in terms of fighting. For example, their Brigade Commander Chen, whose reputation of both wisdom and courage was recognized by the entire 18th Army, and the commander of the 769th Regiment, who was only 23 years old, served as the commander of the four main forces of the 129th Division. The night attack on Yangmingbao shocked the entire northern battlefield!
But if we talk about the ability to take advantage of others and dig corners with a small hoe, according to the two leaders of the 129th Division, no one in the entire 129th Division can match him!
Because of his existence, the 772nd Regiment also won more ammunition supplies from the division headquarters than other regiments.
Of course, that was naturally because the 772nd Regiment fought hard. In the two battles of Qiguan Village, more than 400 Japanese soldiers were killed, and the food and supplies seized were enough for the entire 129th Division to have a good year. Just being thick-skinned and able to fool people is not a skill. Being able to fight and fool people is definitely a great skill.
Otherwise? Do you think anyone who goes to the brigade headquarters can get cigarettes, alcohol, and tea from Brigade Commander Chen? Comrade Lao Wang is the only one in the entire division.
"Captain Wang, I appreciate your courtesy, but I really want to say that you and the 772nd Regiment are really well-known to me, Tang, no matter it is the Battle of Niangzi Pass or the Battle of Qigeng Village where the troops are no longer needed!" Tang Dao smiled and responded to the courtesy that was neither sincere nor sincere with a serious look.
"Some people say that the victory of this battle is the result of your division commander Liu's extreme application of Sun Tzu's Art of War and the proper command of Brigade Commander Chen in person. But I think that although the two commanders are amazing, the heroic fighting of you and the officers and soldiers of the 772nd Regiment is the basis for the victory of this battle! This is like fighting in a ring. No matter how sharp and intelligent your mind is, no matter how quick your reaction is, if you don't have a good body as a foundation, you can only be rubbed on the ground. You and the 772nd Regiment are one of the best bodies of my Chinese army in the northern battlefield!"
Comrade Lao Wang...
Officers of the 772nd Regiment...
Compared to Comrade Lao Wang's just half-hearted courtesy and compliment, Tang Tuanzuo's "courtesy" is no longer at the level of heart and kidney. It is completely I know your strengths and weaknesses, and I know your depth!
Moreover, Tang Tuanzuo's praise is very high-level, completely praising the g-spot of all the officers and soldiers of the 772nd Regiment, saying that they are one of the strongest bodies in the entire northern battlefield. Who dares to say no to this evaluation?
Who dares to say that Comrade Lao Wang is the first to get angry with them!
More importantly, what Tang Dao said was the truth. He even knew how awesome they were better than the people involved in this infantry regiment.
The predecessor of the 772nd Regiment was originally a heroic unit of the 18th Army. In the future, it will become an iron army. How many units can participate in the battle of the "Five Sacred Mountains" and win in the battle of the northern ice field?
They are one of them!
Such a unit, such a commander, they certainly deserve such praise!
This kid is a difficult one to deal with! It may not be so easy to pull the hair from him! Lao Wang reacted instantly.
With his life experience, praising people is a technical job. Being able to praise people like this is a manifestation of ability. But such a guy is the one he wants to fleece.
What can he do?
But who is Lao Wang? He is the "Crazy Wang" who almost fleeced several officers of the same level and made the enemy terrified. His life motto is: As long as you use the hoe well, there is no corner that cannot be dug! If the sword is fast, the enemy's head will be a dish!
"Aha! Shame on you!" Comrade Lao Wang touched his head 'shyly', "The battle between Captain Tang and your unit, we can't receive the battle report in this poor and remote place, Lao Wang is not good at speaking, and I can't say anything if I want to exaggerate. But I think Captain Tang's physique is definitely a strong soldier among strong soldiers, and your unit is not bad either, they are all heroes who kill devils!"
Show the enemy weakness first, only by retracting the fist can you hit it better and more powerfully! Comrade Lao Wang is well aware of the tactics of his immediate superior.
"Well, my regiment is okay, we only killed a few thousand devils!" Tang Dao nodded and accepted the praise from the friendly forces.
He has been waiting for this sentence for a long time!
Lao Wang's big eyes froze!
This guy with the same good physique seemed to make him smell a familiar breath!
Seeing Lao Wang in a daze, Tang Dao grinned!
"Haha! It turns out that Commander Tang is such an interesting person. When our Brigade Commander Chen sees you, he will definitely like you!" Lao Wang reacted instantly and laughed.
The officers of the 772nd Regiment pretended not to hear it.
They dare not say that the leader is interesting like this one!
"Oh! I am looking forward to it!"
Tang Dao and Comrade Lao Wang clenched their hands again! Soon loosened.
Otherwise, Comrade Lao Wang dare not guarantee that he would have the urge to pinch off the little fox hand of the friendly army!
The first meeting, Xiao Tang vs. Xiao Wang, half a catty and eight taels, but the temperament is a good match.
One is not very shameless, and the other is the same!
