Chapter 109 Inducing the King into the urn 2

Hirose Shousuke looked at the direction of the attack helplessly. At this moment, it was more appropriate to say that he was helpless than despair. He didn't expect that [***] in the defense of the city was so difficult to deal with? At this moment, there has been a trace of white fish in the sky, and more than three hours of bitter fighting have not been fruitless? Judging from the more than 500 wounded who carried down the position, at least more than 500 imperial officers and soldiers were smashed in front of the enemy's position.

At 8:30 a.m. on March 10, under the personal supervision of Banbenzheng Youweimen, the commander of the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army, fought for five hours. After paying more than 2,000 casualties, it finally broke through the last line of defense of the Chinese defenders from the right wing. About 200 remnants of the Chinese defenders were defeated and fled.

Banbenzheng Youweimen, the commander of the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army, insisted on going to the front line to watch the battle despite the dissuasion of his subordinates. It can be said that such a rapid progress surprised Banbenzheng Youweimen himself. Banbenzheng Youweimen was very clear that if it was a previous battle, the 6th Division suffered more than 2,000 casualties to break through the enemy's three ways. Blocking the defense line, I'm afraid that he, the head of the division, will not escape the condemnation of the command.

However, Chengde's situation is special. In contrast, the 8th Division is still struggling to fight against the solid monk Guanfeng, while the 10th Division and the 14th Division have made no progress. Only its own 6th Division breaks through the enemy's defense line, and everything is comparative.

Banbenzheng Youweimen, standing in the front command post, looked excitedly at the fleeing Chinese soldiers in the mirror of the artillery team. They directly attacked the old street in Chengde City, went straight to the headquarters of the core area to destroy the [***], and captured or killed Zhang Xuewu. It seemed that everything was so simple, compared with the other three. A waste division, the sixth division must make the first great achievements!

Like Banbenzheng Youweimen, Zhang Xuewu also personally arrived at the front of the old street to arrange the command. The soldiers of a battalion of Zhao Xinyu of the new third regiment poured soybeans on the bluestone road and ice on the street. The beans rolled all over the ground and threw the Chinese soldiers who poured the beans to the sky.

Zhao Xinyu looked at the division with every strange trick in shock. Zhao Xinyu now has not only a simple admiration for Zhang Xuewu, but has upgraded to the point of worship.

However, the discarded armor of more than 200 remnants of the fifth battalion of the new third regiment, who served as the task of seducing the enemy, also opened Zhang Xuewu's eyes. Zhao Xinyu frowned and pressed the pistol holster at his waist and was silent. Everyone knew that this was obviously beyond the scope of real seducing the enemy. It was very obvious that the fifth battalion suffered. It's a complete defeat.

Zhang Xuewu didn't say anything. With the repeated attacks of a battalion and a brigade, Zhang Xuewu could withdraw more than 200 people. Zhang Xuewu thought that the battalion commander was a talent, so he smiled at Zhao Xinyu and said, "Yes, the 5th battalion of your regiment did a very good job of seducing the enemy. You know, the 6th division opposite us is one A difficult role. If you don't act like a little boy, you will definitely not be hooked. Go and call the battalion commander. I want to see you!"

Hearing the expectation of the division, Zhao Xinyu gave his messenger's buttocks and said, "Aren't you listening? Call Hu Zhenglong, the commander of the fifth battalion, to come here and run. Do you understand?"

After a while, a typical northeastern man with a tall horse ran over, and a standing upright saluted: "Hu Zhenglong, the temporary fifth battalion commander of the new third regiment, has seen the division!"

Zhang Xuewu frowned slightly after listening to Hu Zhenglong's irregular report. Seeing that Hu Zhenglong was open in the cold weather, he put two muskets on his waist, crossed a flower mechanism, and held a Czech in his hand. Not far away, a guard carried ammunition on his back and did not dare to rely on it. Come on, he looked at this side timidly. Zhao Xinyu, who was beside him, hurriedly explained, "Camp commander Hu turned out to be the deputy of the second regiment of Tang Yulin's pistol regiment. Tang Yulin only took care of his family to rob property. Deputy Hu Tuan angrily asked him to lead the troops to fight. The 1,200 people he pulled into a battalion. He is now the commander of my lieutenant colonel!"

Zhang Xuewu nodded and looked at Hu Zhenglong and said, "How many people are there in your fifth battalion?"

Hu Zhenglong was slightly stunned and looked around at the brothers sitting on the ground like a dead dog not far away. He said bleakly, "In addition to more than 200 minor and seriously injured people, there are only about 200 people left!"

Zhang Xuewu nodded and said, "If I give you the main position on the front of the old street, are you sure?"

The main position on the front of the old street? Hu Zhenglong looked around in confusion, and then said incomparable surprise, "Behind the old street is the girls' middle school. Where is the teacher's department!"

Hu Zhenglong was suddenly stunned, because he found that Zhang Xuewu was looking at him with interest. Hu Zhenglong felt a little sad for a moment. The world was as black as a crow. First, he played miscellaneous cards as the main force. If he had known this, it would have been better to take his brothers to fight like falling grass. Now he has been regarded as cannon fodder on the side ridge of Majiagou. Is it clean? More than 1,200 people who lack their arms and broken legs are less than 400 people! What kind of evil have you made yourself?

Hu Zhenglong took a deep breath. He knew that it was not so easy to fool around in the Central Army, especially the new first division, which is equipped with German instructors with moral weapons. Is it possible that the division wants to cast a name for it?

But if the old street position is lost, the women's middle school where the division is located will be directly exposed to the attack of the Japanese army, and the division will not be clear about the interests between them. Hu Zhenglong immediately said without any hesitation: "Please rest assured, I can't guarantee anything else. The only thing Hu Zhenglong can guarantee is that my fifth battalion will defend. In the old street, it is said that I can only step over our bodies, and I can't control so much about my death.

Zhang Xuewu smiled and said, "Then don't be a battalion commander anymore!"

Ah? Hu Zhenglong was stunned. He didn't wait for him to recover. Zhang Xuewu continued: "Take out a battalion from the reserve team of the division and hand it over to Lieutenant Colonel Hu Zhenglong, deputy of the new third regiment under the command, and keep the main position of the old street!" Order the assault company and the assault company to concentrate. I want to lecture!"

Soon, within the girls' middle school, the assault company 1st and the assault 2nd company, which had 189 people per company, were all assembled.

These two assault companies were specially prepared by Zhang Xuewu for the old street battle. Each class is a standard 16-person, eight-person combat team, each equipped with two Mauser pistols and P-18 submachine guns. Each combat team is equipped with a Czech-made light machine gun. Zhang Xuewu disarmed the two reinforcement regiments of Tang Yulin's pistol brigade. So now the richest one is the Mauser pistol, which is commonly known as the barge gun. Tang Yulin's Mauser pistols are all quick-fire types imported from Germany. They are equipped with plug-in 10-shot and 20-shot magazines. Its standard cowhide is equipped with six 10-shot magazines and four 20--shot magazines, with a total of one hundred. Forty times.

Du Kefeng, the commander of the first assault company, and Deng Li, the commander of the second assault company, are both company commanders with the rank of major. The main reason is that the two companies directly belong to the division. It can be said that Zhang Xuewu is the most elite troops in addition to the division's reconnaissance camp. The two chains are equipped with grenades. The bullets are all authentic German long handle aggravated defense type, and most of the explosives of the whole division have also been concentrated on the two companies. It can be said that Zhang Xuewu has placed great hopes on the two companies. The task of the two companies is to use the dense houses on the left and right sides of the old street to give the Japanese army infiltration troops the maximum killing.
