The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2296 You are not allowed to say "ah" even if you die!

Zhou Jingyong was very excited when he heard that Shang Zhen had actually found a small path that could allow him to bypass the Japanese artillery position and launch a direct attack.

If Zhang Jidong's combat plan of burning the Japanese army was realized, and Shang Zhenlian destroyed the Japanese artillery positions, then their 226th Regiment would be in the limelight!

The 224th Regiment was the main force, so what? If these two battles were successful, how could they not have wiped out hundreds of Japanese troops? You have to know that they were Japanese troops. Now the National Army was able to wipe out hundreds of Japanese troops with the strength of one regiment. Is that a small achievement?

So Zhou Jingyong urged Shang Zhen to set off as soon as possible.

But now Shang Zhen is not in a hurry anymore. War is a game of chess, and he is just a chess piece in it. There must be a coordinated deployment, right?

After Shang Zhen and Zhou Jingyong explained, they took the soldiers who had accompanied them on the reconnaissance to sleep. They had not slept all night yesterday as they had been trekking in the mountains and forests, and they were all extremely sleepy.

The next day, Shang Zhen rushed to Xiaobojilian and had a discussion with Xiaoboji.

Following Xiao Boji's suggestion, Shang Zhen followed a soldier on horseback to the nearest town. They knocked on a house's door and entered. More than forty minutes later, they came out with a bulging bag.

At this time, Shang Zhen rode his horse back to his company with the bag and began to select his soldiers.

Since this battle requires crossing mountains, and most likely more than once, the physical fitness requirements for the soldiers are very high.

Shang Zhen did not bring any older soldiers with poor physical strength, and finally only selected a platoon of soldiers, and set out at noon the next day.

To say that they had just set out was from the perspective of the urgent military situation, but Shang Zhen was undoubtedly the one who had the least rest.

He just took a nap on the night he returned to the military camp, and then went to look for Xiao Boji again. Now he was leading the team at the front. His physical strength made Hu Sheng and others admire him very much.

But when Hu Sheng expressed his admiration for Shang Zhen in front of that platoon of soldiers, Shang Zhen's answer made those simple soldiers admire him even more.

This is what Shang Zhen said.

Who doesn’t get tired after climbing too many mountains? Who doesn’t get tired after walking too many roads?

It would be better to say that I have good resilience than to say that I have good physical strength.

What is resilience? As long as we don't die, we have to endure any hardship!

If we run more now, we can kill more Japanese devils. Just think about how many ordinary people we can avenge and how many ordinary people we can save. Among these ordinary people, there may be our relatives and people who have done us favors, right?

Experience can change a person. Shang Zhen explained the principles of anti-Japanese resistance in a simple and direct way. Unconsciously, Shang Zhen was actually influenced by his wife Leng Xiaozhi, or the Eighth Route Army. If what he said was said in the Eighth Route Army, it would be called ideological work, or political mobilization.

Although Shang Zhen did not have a certain idea in his heart, he did so unconsciously.

This concept, in the words of later generations, is "change what I am asked to do into what I want to do."

Then, in conjunction with the current soldiers, he changed "I am required to fight against Japan" to "I want to fight against Japan"

When an ordinary soldier has the idea of ​​"I want to fight against Japan", although the soldier is just an ordinary soldier, it is impossible for every soldier to become the king of individual soldiers.

But when a team is fighting down to the last few or even only one soldier, and would rather die with the enemy than surrender, how much damage will it cause to the invaders?

The reason is simple, but that is what later generations think. In the current anti-Japanese war, think about why there are so many generals and soldiers surrendering in the Chinese army? The number of puppet troops is the highest in the world! This shows how much practical significance Shang Zhen's idea of ​​letting every soldier have this kind of anti-Japanese idea has!

People always see other people as stories, but what about ourselves? I'm afraid we can only ask ourselves.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Shang Zhen and his soldiers climbed up and down and made several detours before finally reaching the foot of the highest mountain they needed to climb.

By this time they were very close to Qingfeng Mountain. The sound of gunfire from the other end was sometimes frequent and sometimes sparse. The sounds of gunfire and explosions were just like what was said in an ancient poem: "The loud sound of the big strings is like heavy rain, and the soft sound of the small strings is like whispers." There was no moment of silence at all.

When he came back this time, Shang Zhen already knew that the Japanese army had attacked Qingshan Peak and that two companies of the 224th Regiment had been crippled, and this was under the premise that they had the advantage of terrain.

According to the regiment commander Zhou Jingyong, the casualties of the two companies were half and half, half were caused by Japanese artillery fire, and the other half were caused by Japanese infantry attacks.

Once, the Japanese army had already captured the Qingfeng Mountain position, but reinforcements from the 224th Regiment arrived.

When the Japanese troops in the distance saw that there was no hope of capturing the Qingfeng Mountain position, they fired artillery shells at the position again, but they killed even the Japanese soldiers who were still alive and fighting hand-to-hand with the Chinese defenders!

War has always been a double-edged sword. The Chinese defenders fought bravely, and no matter how strong the firepower advantage of the Japanese invaders was, it was impossible to do so without paying a price!

In all wars, ground is king. If you cannot capture the enemy's position, no matter how strong your air and artillery advantages are, you cannot say that you have achieved final victory.

Shang Zhen's current assessment of the battlefield situation is this: the Qingfeng Mountain position is now nailed here like a nail, and the 224th Regiment has suffered heavy casualties and pressure. So whether they can defeat the Japanese raid again this time depends on their 226th Regiment.

Because of the 224th Regiment's perseverance, the Japanese army was also under great pressure.

So, whether the 224th Regiment opened a gap in the secondary defense position for the Japanese army, lured the enemy deep into the territory and used fire attack to annihilate part of the enemy, or launched a sneak attack on the Japanese artillery position to cut off the Japanese army's supply of fire, the entire battlefield would change the offensive and defensive situation. Perhaps this time the Japanese army's expedition against Dahongshan would end in vain.

Therefore, it is very important for them to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese artillery positions this time.

Because of this, at the foot of the nameless mountain they needed to climb, Shang Zhen had already spoken to the soldiers standing in the woods at the foot of the mountain: "No matter how great the difficulties we encounter this time, no matter how much sacrifice we make, we must destroy the two Japanese guns.

Even if some of us die, or even if all of us die, it's worth it.

Now I want to make one thing clear to you. You must be brave and careful when climbing up and down the mountain. You must not alert the Japanese army.

If someone fails to hold onto the tree or the rope and falls off the cliff, you must remember this!

Even if someone falls, no one, whether the person who fell or the people next to them, is allowed to say "ah!"

Shang Zhen's order made the soldiers feel a chill in their hearts!

This order is really cruel!

If a person falls off the cliff while climbing a mountain, he will be dead, but he won’t even have the right to scream “Ah” before dying!

And this is the price they must pay to complete this mission!
