Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

The vanguard of the guerrilla warfare was located in the former enemy headquarters in Madian Town, and the results of the engineer battalion were immediately transmitted to the ears of the division commander Li Guosheng through radio waves. (This chapter is uploaded by netizens)

An engineering battalion whose infantry combat effectiveness was only half that of ordinary infantry, wiped out the elite Japanese troops of an infantry squadron in just one night.For the other officers of the security division, even including Li Guosheng, the first expressions they showed were inconceivable.

However, Li Guosheng was relieved after he really understood the specific style of play of the engineer battalion.Because the engineer battalion used no other tactics, it was the mine warfare often used by the squadrons on the anti-Japanese battlefield in later generations, especially the guerrillas behind enemy lines.

The prestige of landmine warfare was earned through bloody battles and the lives of little devils.It is now used on the No.132 brigade of the Japanese army who has never met 11 to form a special agent battalion (subscribe!!!) and has never experienced new mine warfare. If such a large result cannot be achieved, it can only explain one problem, the combat effectiveness of the engineer battalion too bad.

"Master, a single engineer battalion has achieved such a great result. I dare to think that we can't just sit here and wait for the Japanese army to arrive. We should take the initiative to attack at the right time, and try to eliminate the vital forces of the Japanese army during the [movement] as much as possible." Following Li Guosheng Division staff officer Yang Xiankun said. [

And just after Li Guosheng saw the telegram from the engineer battalion, no matter in the special operations of later generations or the current war, he has always been used to controlling the initiative of the entire battle.Immediately, there was an idea to take the initiative.

Yang Xiankun, the combat staff officer who heard his high hopes, could think of these immediately.On Li Guosheng's face, there was a hint of admiration immediately.With the meaning of a test, he asked with a smile on his face: "Counselor Li, your idea is very good. That being the case, if you are the supreme commander of our security division, how do you plan to fight..."

Facing the seemingly scorching and menacing gaze of the division commander Li Guosheng, staff officer Yang Xiankun, who graduated from Whampoa, immediately showed a nervous look on his face.

Of course Li Guosheng knew the reason why 132 set up a spy camp (subscribe!!!), and said directly with an encouraging smile.

"Consultant Wang, don't be nervous. Think about it carefully, and say what comes to mind. There are no outsiders here..."

"Yes, Master..."

Staff Officer Yang Xiankun's tense expression eased a little.After a short period of contemplation, he opened his mouth and said: "Reporting to the seat of the teacher, I think so."

Under Li Guosheng's encouraging eyes, Yang Xiangkun said more and more naturally: "Immediately draw some elites from each regiment, and combine them with a small amount of artillery, cavalry, engineers...to form an independent elite unit. The combat effectiveness of this elite unit 』Quality, just like the current "Snow Leopard" unit, using simple sneak attacks. Small-scale annihilation battles, luring the enemy to go deep. Even combining mine warfare with engineer battalions. Through small victories one after another, a large number of active forces of the Japanese army were wiped out. The pressure faced by the main force."

"In addition, our elite team can also pass through the various harassments and short-term firepower raids just mentioned during the Japanese army's march in the future. On the one hand, it will slow down the Japanese army's marching speed, and on the other hand, it will kill and wound the Japanese army's vital forces."

Hearing the answer in front of him that was already a bit of a shadow of guerrilla warfare, Li Guosheng nodded appreciatively, and continued to encourage him: "Commander Yang, do you have any other ideas? Think about it again..."

"By the way, I have another idea..." Li Guosheng's reminder immediately made Staff Officer Yang Xiankun's eyes light up, and he said excitedly.

"Master, I think that this elite team has one more thing to do."

"When the main force of the Japanese army launched an attack on our garrison division. We can order this elite to go deep into the rear of the No.11 Brigade of the Japanese army, look for favorable fighters, cut off the Japanese army's logistical supplies, destroy the small Japanese army, and sneak attack the artillery positions... "Chaos" their offensive deployment, directly reducing the pressure on the main force of the position."

"Okay..." Yang Xiankun's ability to think of the last point at the last moment is enough to show that he has a great talent for guerrilla warfare.As soon as the words fell, Li Guosheng couldn't help clapping his hands because of his excitement...

"Master, I..." Seeing the excited Li Guosheng, Yang Xiankun was at a loss for a moment.

"Staff Yang, what you just said was very good, and it hit my heart. Although a lot of the content sounds a bit rough, but being able to understand so much in a short period of time is enough to show your amazing talent for guerrilla warfare. By the way, your current military rank is Major...?" Li Guosheng patted Yang Xiankun's shoulder in front of him, as if he found a treasure, and asked with his eyes shining.

"Yes, the division seat... It turned out to be a captain. After entering the security division, his rank was promoted to major. It was less than half a month..."

"The rank of major is enough..." Li Guosheng nodded affirmatively.Immediately, his expression changed, and he ordered directly to Yang Xiankun who didn't know why.

"Major Yang, now, on behalf of our Security Division Division Headquarters, I am announcing an appointment to you... Starting today, Yang Xiankun will be officially appointed as the Major and Deputy Battalion Commander of the Security Division Special Operations Battalion. From the day the order is announced, he will officially take up the post..." [

"Major, Deputy Battalion Commander... Division, this..." Facing the sudden surprise, Yang Xiankun, who dreamed of leading troops and showing his talents on the battlefield, was immediately dazed and stammered. .

1 minute, 2 minutes... After Yang Xiankun in front of him recovered from the shock, Li Guosheng continued to speak with a smile on his face: "Battlemaster Yang, for this spy battalion, I will not set up a battalion commander for the time being. In wartime, I will Conduct the command personally, and usually, you will manage it. Until when I think you can take charge of it alone, I will be qualified as the commander of the lieutenant colonel, so I hope you will not disappoint my good intentions. "

"Next, let me tell you about the combat missions of the future combat mode after the formation of this special agent battalion..."

"As you just said, for guerrilla warfare and harassment warfare in the enemy's rear, it is very difficult for the three established main regiments to change their combat mode immediately. Therefore, I will set up an independent battalion to complete what you just said Those tasks. And you. Through continuous learning in the war, master what is the true meaning of guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines.

"In this way, the establishment of the special service company is temporarily set to three infantry companies, and each infantry company is a combat unit. It includes three combat platoons. A mortar platoon, a heavy machine gun platoon, and an engineering squad. In addition, the special service battalion The Ministry directly controls a cavalry platoon, which is used as a mobile force..."

"I will transfer all the troops from each regiment within a day. Tonight, we will take the independent battalion with us. We will meet the No.11 Brigade of the Japanese Army for a while. At the same time, I will let you know what real guerrilla warfare is... "

"Yes, division... I promise to live up to expectations..." I was able to personally study with the division in front of me, whom even the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition Army admired very much.Yang Xiankun was a little worried about his ability just now.Without the slightest hesitation, he directly faced Li Guosheng and assured him with a confident face.

Under the dark night, almost [-] officers and soldiers of the newly formed spy battalion were directly led by the division commander Li Guosheng.With a troubled heart, he disappeared on the road in front of the security division's blocking position.

Because the troops carry a lot of heavy equipment, and Li Guosheng wants the troops to maintain their combat effectiveness.The marching speed of the secret service battalion was very slow until four o'clock in the morning.Only arrived about one kilometer away from the Japanese camp.

By the faint light of a candle, a map.It was spread directly in front of the three company commanders and Yang Xiankun.

"Brothers, look at this mountain road. It is 500 meters ahead. It is a mountain ridge, which is very suitable for blocking... 500 meters ahead, a small hill just blocks the right side of the road. It is also a good position for blocking... Go forward One kilometer is a hilly area, and this mountain road passes directly under the foot of the hill. If we don’t use such a good terrain, we are sorry to God.”

"My idea is this, use an artillery platoon and a machine gun platoon to lure the enemy... Deploy a heavy machine gun platoon on this mountain ridge, and deploy all the light machine guns of an infantry company... This small hill also deploys a heavy machine gun platoon, nine A light machine gun... As for this hill, all the troops of our secret service battalion will be ambushed."

"Once the artillery platoon successfully lures the enemy, as long as the Japanese pursuit force is below three infantry squadrons, it will lead to this road."

"After entering our first blocking position, the blocking troops don't need to fight recklessly, and directly use the most violent firepower to kill and injure a large number of Japanese pursuit troops, and then retreat actively..."

"The second blocking position also did the same for me...I believe that six heavy machine guns and 18 light machine guns, through this kind of cascading blocking, cut the little devil's flesh bit by bit. Even if each light machine gun only hits A shuttle of bullets can also cause at least a hundred casualties to the Japanese army..."

"After completing the blocking task, all the blocking troops must immediately enter the predetermined positions in our ambush circle and wait for the arrival of the Japanese pursuit troops. Finally, come here and fight the little devils chasing troops for a perfect battle of annihilation. A victory..." Pointing at the battle map in front of him, Li Guosheng ordered without any discussion.

At 06:30 in the morning, more than 1 Japanese soldiers gathered in squadrons for marching breakfast according to the usual training.In a depression 82 kilometers away from the Japanese barracks, three [-]mm mortars had already raised their dark muzzles under the control of dozens of officers and soldiers of the Special Service Battalion of the Security Division.

Standing on a mountain ridge between the artillery position and the Japanese barracks, the secret service battalion had three heavy machine guns and nine light machine guns in a row, and dozens of machine gunners were also waiting for a possible counterattack by the Japanese army.

"Company commander, the artillery platoon is ready..."

"Company commander, all the light and heavy machine guns are ready. As long as the little devil comes, I will definitely give him a big gift..." Soon, the two platoon leaders rushed to report to Ye Chutian, the company commander of the secret service battalion.

"Good job..." Ye Chutian nodded in satisfaction after glancing at the watch on his arm, and then said.

"Brothers, this is the first battle since the establishment of our spy battalion. I won't say much else. In a word, we must fight well and win. Especially the machine gun platoon in front, we must remember you My mission: not desperately, but to lure the enemy. After at most one round of bullets, you must alternately cover and withdraw from the position. If I find out who did not follow the order and caused casualties to the troops, then don’t blame me for dismissing you.” [

"The artillery platoon, there is no way to fire ten shells. After firing, then quickly withdraw from the battlefield. Alright, let's get ready, after 5 minutes. The artillery platoon will start attacking..."

"Yes, company commander..."

"Several dull mortar shells were fired from the artillery position of the spy battalion company, and three shells flew directly towards the Japanese barracks with a whistling sound.

In the huge Japanese barracks, there were groups of soldiers squatting on the ground, gathering together for breakfast.Three sudden shells, unbiased.It happened to fall among more than 100 devil soldiers and an explosion occurred.

Three orange-red fireballs soared into the air from among the densely packed little devils, and more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were directly blown upside down.The closer ones were even thrown into the sky by the air waves.Under the attack of shell shrapnel, it was directly torn into pieces...

"Baga, it's bombardment, quickly hide... hide..." The little devil who was eating, although fell into a brief shock.but.The battle experience that has been on the battlefield for a long time still allows them to react immediately.As soon as the commander's order was issued, the nearby soldiers immediately threw away the fatty lunch boxes in their hands and quickly spread around.Lie down on the spot.

At the same time, the second round of three mortars.The third round of artillery shells also followed and exploded in the Japanese barracks.

Although the Japanese army has rich experience in anti-aircraft artillery.However, the density of personnel in the barracks is very high.Coupled with the five-meter killing range of the 82mm caliber mortar shell, almost every shell that falls can reap the lives of several little devils.

In less than ten seconds, the area under bombardment was completely enveloped by the smoke from the shell explosion.Of course, a strong smell of blood mixed with the smell of gunpowder smoke also began to gradually spread from the shelling area to the surroundings.

The supreme commander of the Japanese army in the barracks, Major General Sakai, head of the [-]th Brigade.At the same time as the first round of explosions sounded, a suspicious gaze was placed on the explosion point several hundred meters away from him, waiting for the report from his subordinates.

"Report sir, the [-]rd Infantry Battalion of the [-]th Infantry Regiment was bombed by unknown mortars, and the troops suffered heavy losses. Because the shells came from the southwest direction of the barracks, the captain of the [-]rd Battalion asked for instructions whether the troops should attack immediately..." Sure enough, the artillery sounded Within half a minute of the sound, a combat staff officer rushed out of the tent and reported anxiously.

"Baga, since when did the imperial army of the Japanese Empire have the experience of only being beaten and not fighting back? They are simply a disgrace to my No.11 Brigade... What are you doing in a daze? Order the troops to attack immediately and eliminate all attacks Otherwise, the military law will be engaged..." Major General Sakai ordered with a firm face while being angry.

"Hi..."

A total of 1 shells and three mortars were shot into the Japanese barracks in just one minute.The gunpowder smoke cleared, looking at the soldiers with broken limbs and arms, the wounded who kept crying in pain, and the limp corpses in front of them.The face of Major Kameda, the captain of the Third Infantry Battalion, was already livid from the shock.

And at this moment, the deputy captain's voice sounded: "Captain, the first and second squadrons have assembled and are ready to attack at any time."

"Yoxi, very good. Order the troops to attack immediately. We must eliminate this cunning raider and avenge the sacrificed warriors... If you don't destroy this raider, you will not return to the camp. Kill it..."

Major Kameda, with a livid face, directly drew out his sharp samurai sword, and pointed the blade forward.He shouted loudly at the more than 300 subordinates who had assembled behind him.

"Kill it..." More than 300 devils, led by the deputy captain, rushed out of the barracks like a flood breaking a bank, and killed them in the direction of the artillery position.

"Company commander, the little devils are attacking. There are two infantry squadrons in total..." The soldiers of the Secret Service Battalion, who had been standing on the commanding heights as observation posts, hurriedly reported.

"The little devils of Gou Ri are finally here... Artillery platoon, retreat immediately, machine gun platoon, get ready for battle..." The two infantry squadrons were completely under the calculation of the division seat.Company Commander Ye Chutian breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was [excited], he quickly ordered.

Maybe it's because of Major Kameda's military order of 'Don't destroy the attackers, never return to the battalion'.Perhaps because this area is still under the control of the Japanese army, coupled with the support of the main force behind them, in the eyes of all the attacking Japanese troops, it is impossible for them to have many Chinese squadrons that they need to eliminate.

The two infantry squadrons, under the leadership of their respective officers, had almost no formation, scrambling to be the first to rush towards the blocking position of the mountain ridge machine gun platoon.

"The little devils of Gou Ri, are you here to die..." I saw hundreds of little devils densely packed in front of the position, with almost no formation, and they didn't even at least cover each other.The leader of the machine gun platoon couldn't believe his eyes, and couldn't help muttering to himself.

"Platoon leader, do you want to fight..." At a distance of 200 meters, in a blink of an eye, the swarming little devils rushed to the position 200 meters in front of the position.A heavy machine gunner squatting beside the platoon leader asked in a low voice.

"What to fight? We took such a good opportunity. At that time, we will not only save bullets, but also use bullets to bite meat. Use limited bullets to cause maximum damage to the little devil..." The platoon leader put his face straight Light ordered.

200 meters, 150 meters, 100 meters, as the distance between the two armies is getting closer and closer, dozens of officers and soldiers of the secret service battalion hiding behind the mountain ridge can even clearly see the ferocious expression of the Japanese army.The face of the leader of the machine gun platoon finally showed a trace of bloodthirsty gaze.

He picked up his own gun, pointed at the little devil officer who was getting closer and seemed to be a second lieutenant, and directly pulled the trigger of the pistol. (to be continued!!!
