Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 1261, sneak attack on the Japanese airport?

War is cruel.

War is exhausting.

The great man said that one is not afraid of hardship and the other is not afraid of death.

Why does suffering come first? Because it is long-term and cannot be relieved.

Not pain. It's hard.

The glory lies in the dullness, and the difficulty lies in the long time.

It has only been half a month since the Marco Polo Bridge Incident.

However, Zhang Yong felt as if many years had passed. The time is extremely long. A day is longer than a year.

No hot water for bathing.

No hot meal. No soup. No coke.

Nothing.

Not eating well, not sleeping well. Mentally very nervous.

Only hard dry food. Eat as much as you like.

Of course, you can also use your troops to plunder and go to the common people for food. Take it if you don't give it.

However, this may bring disaster to them. The Japanese invaders will definitely kill them if they learn that they are supporting the national army.

At the same time, the common people who were robbed must be very angry and then report to the Japanese invaders.

Don't think too highly of the consciousness of ordinary people.

The people are not enlightened, and the poor people have no national consciousness at all. Not to mention national pride.

To put it harshly, they have no awareness at all.

Even if the other party is a Japanese invader, as long as they are given some benefits, they can betray the national army.

It’s just that our history books dare not mention it.

Fighting behind enemy lines is so difficult.

Therefore, it is impossible to carry out struggles behind enemy lines in areas without a mass base.

Doesn’t the national army want to start a struggle behind enemy lines? It’s not that I don’t want to. It can't be done. Because there is no secret and voluntary support from the people.

Tang Enbo's later anger and resentment was also due to his plundering.

But what can he do?

If we don't grab it, the army will collapse.

Therefore, from the root, it is destined to be unsustainable.

Eating is fine. I could barely find something to eat. Can't take a shower. Can't change clothes. That's the most terrible thing.

Everyone is dirty. Various skin diseases.

In the past, I felt that the sword was already very realistic, and the clothes of the people in it were all dirty.

Only now do I realize that shining a sword is also an exaggeration. That's Road 8 over there. It is the Jinsui Army. Rather than the larger number of other national armies.

Usually fine. Once in a fighting state, everyone is almost like a beggar.

Including Zhang Yong himself, he is also a bearded Bazaar, and his whole body exudes stench. It was caused by the alternate penetration of rain and sweat.

If his women saw him at this time, they would all shy away.

Maybe he was fainted before he even got close.

Just a miserable word...

Is there a solution?

have. Find a campsite.

Conditionally.

Everyone takes a bath.

Change clothes.

do the laundry.

Catch lice.

Treat skin diseases.

Especially bad feet.

Suddenly I felt that the bare feet of the national army were actually quite good.

At least bare feet are less likely to be soaked by rain and less likely to rot. Wearing cloth shoes is a tragedy.

Cloth shoes are not stain-resistant, waterproof, and cannot withstand sharp objects. Almost useless. However, even so, even cloth shoes cannot be provided for each person.

There was no time to knit straw sandals either. Zhang Yong can’t edit either. So I went barefoot.

What to do if your foot is pricked?

He doesn't know either. But I would rather go barefoot.

Otherwise, he really can't bear the rotten feet.

It's so itchy.

The more I scratched, the more itchy I became.

This is still him.

Inspector of the dignified Military and Political Committee.

The supreme commander of the troops.

Have the best conditions.

The same goes for him. One can imagine how badly treated ordinary soldiers would be.

Thinking about it, after the Sichuan army entered the battle, in the eyes of the well-equipped Japanese invaders, they might just be a group of beggars!

Fortunately, many Japanese invaders have been eliminated recently and many military boots have been seized.

Jiao Rulin, Gao Youxun and others have been active on the battlefield all year round and have long been accustomed to it.

"Commissioner, you have to get used to it."

"In a year and a half, you should be able to adapt."

The two of them comforted Zhang Yong seriously.

Zhang Yong looks a bit strange now.

Walking with a slight limp.

Seems like a pain in the butt.

If it were left to future generations, it might be misunderstood.

But in this day and age, anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that it is the aftereffects of traveling long distances on horseback.

We rode horses all the way from Shimen to the vicinity of Juyongguan, about three hundred kilometers. My buttocks were almost bleeding. Even a thick mattress is of no use.

That's what war is like.

The cavalry looks cool on the surface, but who knows the pain behind them.

However, no matter how painful it is, you have to endure it.

Because it requires speed. I don’t want to be an infantryman. If there is danger, you can't run away.

At this moment, there are Japanese invaders everywhere around Peiping.

Several Japanese divisions have gathered here and are planning to divide their forces to attack.

Because there was no clear judgment on the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, the Japanese invaders did not dare to be hasty.

Mainly because he, Zhang Yong, made two consecutive sneak attacks and overestimated the combat effectiveness of other national troops. Therefore, we dare not attack rashly.

An infantry regiment marching alone may be wiped out.

A division is necessary.

The division must also be fully prepared.

Focus on taking good care of your own artillery. Aviation cover is also needed.

In this case, the action will definitely not be so fast.

Of course, a very important point is to determine where Zhang Yong is.

Where Zhang Yong appears, there may be danger.

"There's someone ahead."

"Stop moving forward."

Zhang Yong suddenly raised his hand. Then he jumped off his horse.

The map shows a large number of white dots approaching to the northwest. All have weapons symbols. There are a lot of people.

It should be one of our own. But I don't know which part it is.

"Chen Hansheng."

"arrive."

"About five kilometers to the northwest, there are troops approaching. They may be our own. Go and contact the other party to see who is coming."

"good."

Chen Hansheng agreed and led people to the front.

He is an officer of the 29th Army. I have more dealings with troops in the northwest.

In fact, the 29th Army is also part of the Northwest Army. The Jinsui Army was also part of the Northwest Army. The two are still very related.

Monitor the map silently.

Chen Hansheng quickly joined the white dots, and then a dozen blue dots followed Chen Hansheng.

Zhang Yong tidied his clothes.

A bit miserable.

But it doesn't matter.

Such is the battlefield.

Just get used to it.

Soon, Chen Hansheng arrived with a colonel officer.

The other party obviously hasn't entered the battle yet. The body is quite clean. Maybe they just arrived from behind.

The colonel officer came to Zhang Yong, stood at attention and saluted.

"Commissioner."

"Hello."

Zhang Yong nodded.

Reach out. Shake hands with the other person.

This is more intimate.

"You are..."

"Reporting to the Commissioner, my humble position is Yu Defei, the leader of the 13th Army Supplementary Regiment."

"Thirteenth Army? Supplementary Regiment?"

Zhang Yong was thoughtful.

It was actually the Thirteenth Army. Tang Enbo's starting army.

Before, when he was at Shimen, Zhang Yong did not know the composition of Tang Enbo's troops in detail.

Unexpectedly, this Thirteenth Army was actually here.

Came early? still…

"Where did you come from?"

"Huai'an. Tianzhen."

"oh."

Zhang Yong quietly checked the map.

It turns out to be to the west of Zhangjiakou. Confuse. Where were they stationed before?

Keep asking. learned. The Thirteenth Army had been participating in the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army in northern Shaanxi. After the Northwest Incident, he also participated in the encirclement of the Northeast Army.

Finally, the troops went all the way north and stationed in the west of Zhangjiakou.

Why are you stationed here?

It is estimated that they want to divide the Jinsui Army. Or split.

The Jinsui Army actually had two commanders. One is Yan Laoxi. One is Chief Fu.

Chief Fu was originally Yan Laoxi's subordinate, but later he went to Suiyuan and gradually established his own business. Lao Jiang also strongly supported it. As long as it can weaken Yan Laoxi's strength, Lao Jiang will support it.

The purpose of stationing the Thirteenth Army west of Zhangjiakou was to suppress Yan Laoxi and prevent him from putting pressure on Chief Fu.

Chiang Kai-shek did not do good deeds. But to do bad things is to be proficient in everything.

The Northwest Army was defeated by him. The Northeastern Army was also defeated. The Sichuan army is also now divided. The Jin-Sui army also split.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Yunnan Army was also dealt with. Du Yuming bombarded Mount Wuhua. Very drastic measures were used. causing serious damage to his reputation.

Du Yuming finally entered the merit forest. I have to say that it is closely related to the bombardment of Mount Wuhua.

In the end, the **** of the Gui family is left, and I can't figure it out.

However, little Zhuge was smart and confused for a while. He actually went to Taiwan with his biggest rival. The result was, of course, an untimely death.

"You are here..."

"Defend the flanks. Prevent Japanese raids."

"Where is your main force?"

"In the south entrance area."

"oh."

Zhang Yong thought for a while.

It seems that I am still a little far away from the south entrance.

In other words, we haven’t entered the real battlefield yet.

"How is the battle situation at Nankou?"

"We are still in a stalemate. The Japanese invaders have taken turns to attack, but they have all been repelled."

"What are the troop casualties?"

"Reporting Commissioner, I don't know. But our division's Chief of Staff Wu will be arriving soon. You can learn about the situation from him."

"What is your chief of staff's name?"

"Wu Shaozhou."

"Wu Shaozhou?"

Zhang Yong felt that this name was a bit familiar.

There should be some impression somewhere. But, unfortunately, I can't remember it for a while.

The division chief of staff seems to have some status. I guess it's Huangpu Phase 2 or Phase 3?

"Yes."

"How long was your Chief of Staff Wu in Huangpu?"

"Reporting to the Commissioner, Chief of Staff Wu graduated from the Guizhou Martial Arts Hall. Not from Huangpu."

"No wonder..."

Zhang Yong was thoughtful. It turns out he is not a student from Huangpu!

No wonder he can only be chief of staff.

It is said that Huangpu students directly lead the troops and do not serve as staff officers.

This can be regarded as an unspoken rule of Huangpu students. Even if the official position is one level lower, he is still a military officer.

That is, company commander, battalion commander, regiment commander, brigade commander, division commander, and corps commander. Or add an adverb in front of it. But I definitely won’t be the chief of staff. Because the chief of staff has no real power.

Would you like to ask Li Yunlong to be the chief of staff?

I don't understand why Zhang Dabiao was made chief of staff. Not professional!

Zhang Dabiao is a good fighter. What kind of advice?

"Let's do this. Send someone to report to your chief of staff that I have brought some ammunition. Ask them to send someone to carry it. Or you can help carry it."

"Commissioner, where is the ammunition?"

"Come with me!"

Zhang Yong took Yu Defei to the canyon behind.

Delivery in the mountains is so easy. Just find any valley.

The canyon is filled with all kinds of ammunition.

There are not enough firearms. There is plenty of ammunition. Including shells.

Since the confrontation is still going on at the south entrance, it means that the defense line has not been lost yet. Then keep fighting.

Let the Japanese pay more casualties. Pay a heavier price.

"so much…"

Yu Defei was surprised.

That much ammunition, estimated to be hundreds of thousands of rounds?

Besides bullets, the most important thing is cannonballs. Mortar's. There is also a 75mm mountain gun.

The national army is also very short of ammunition.

Except for a very small number of main troops, the other troops are not enough to form a base.

Bullets are a little better, they can be produced by themselves. Cannonballs can barely be produced. But the quantity is small. It can only be used by the main force.

Fortunately, this Thirteenth Army was Tang Enbo's starting army. It can also be regarded as one of the main forces.

"Move them all!"

"yes."

Yu Defei felt that happiness came so suddenly.

I never expected that I would receive so much ammunition before entering the battlefield.

"Report!"

Chen Hansheng arrived in a hurry.

It was said that Wu Shaozhou was here. Zhang Yong then came to see and deal with him.

Wu Shaozhou looked a little tired. The military uniform on his body is a little wrinkled. Soaked with sweat.

August in the Gregorian calendar happens to be the hottest season of the year.

Covered in mud on a rainy day. Sweating all over on a sunny day.

"Commissioner."

"Chief of Staff Wu."

"Please take a seat."

"Thanks!"

Zhang Yong asked Wu Shaozhou to sit down. Understand the basic situation of the Battle of Nankou.

As a result, the scale of the battle far exceeded Zhang Yong's expectations. The battlefield is huge. Covering the surrounding areas of Huailai, Yanqing and Mentougou.

The Japanese troops participating in the attack not only started from Peiping, but also moved from the north to the south.

The Japanese independent 11th and 12th mixed brigades moved south from Mongolia.

There are also a large number of Japanese cavalry.

That's all we know at the moment. The battlefield is chaotic. The information is also not timely.

The national army's own participating units are mainly the Thirteenth Army.

Troops from the Jinsui Army also participated.

"Where's the 35th Army?"

"It hasn't set off yet."

"Not coming?"

"Coming. But not yet."

"oh…"

Zhang Yong frowned.

This 35th Army is Commander Fu’s trump card!

From now on, until more than ten years later, he will be Chief Fu's pet peeve. It was his starting army.

Later, they were wiped out in Xinbao, which interrupted all of Commander Fu's fantasies.

If the 35th Army was not completely wiped out, but fled back to Peiping. The outcome of that great battle is hard to say.

"We were ill-prepared and rushed into battle..."

"well…"

Zhang Yong said nothing.

This is always an excuse.

What does it mean to be unprepared and rush into battle?

In fact, there is plenty of time to prepare. Just didn't do it. Go and get busy wiping out the Red Party.

"You go ahead!"

"yes."

Wu Shaozhou left with the team.

Zhang Yong studied the map silently.

Where should I start? How to take action?

Sneak attack?

This is inevitable.

He was leading cavalry, so he would definitely be able to attack by surprise.

A hard frontal attack would definitely be no match for the Japanese infantry. Currently, there are too many Japanese invaders around Juyongguan.

Facing a target with heavy troops, cavalry has no advantage.

Could it be...

Leaving the south exit?

To find the weak points of the Japanese invaders?

Since the Japanese invaders focused their attention on the south entrance, they must have neglected other places.

So, where to go?

The periphery of the Japanese invaders? edge? rear?

The **** of the Japanese invaders is in Peiping. There are heavy troops in Peiping.

His eyes continued to the east.

Tianjin Wei?

That was the Japanese invaders' rear area.

If the attack is successful, it will definitely inflict heavy damage on the Japanese invaders.

The problem is…

The distance is a bit far. Over there is the plain again.

Once you are targeted by a Japanese aircraft, you will not be able to escape even if you want to. Maybe it will be on the family tree.

Huh?

Japanese plane?

Airport?

Zhang Yong's eyes suddenly flashed. Something came to mind.

This time, he caught it.

Feeling excited.

Airport!

Sneak attack on the Japanese airport!

Destroy the Japanese aircraft!

No need to rush to the airport. Just set up a mortar outside and fire.

Within three kilometers, Japanese aircraft can be bombed.

Later, the Eighth Route Army attacked Yangmingbao Airport at night and destroyed many Japanese aircraft!

Even the poorly equipped Eighth Route Army could do it, so there was no reason why I couldn’t do it!

I don't have a plane.

Then I will leave you without a plane.

Both sides are even.

The value of the aircraft is very high. Destroying one counts as one. It was much more cost-effective than killing a hundred or dozens of Japanese invaders.

It would be more cost-effective if the Japanese pilots could be killed together...

So, there’s a little question—

Where is the nearest Japanese airport?
