Chapter 52 The story of Long Wenwen’s childhood
The battlefield calmed down.
The Japanese army, which used to try to attack every two days, seemed to have given up the attack completely. They set up their positions at Nantianmen and started building fortifications again, as if they were fighting to the death with the national army on the east coast.
Two days a day, three days and five days, until more than half a month passed, the next Japanese attack was still not seen. Instead, on the other side of the Nantian Gate, various machines began to enter the field and dig out the soil and rocks.
I don't know which side started it first, but the bored soldiers on both sides began to quarrel.
Even though the two sides don't understand each other's language, there are people in both camps who understand each other's words. They didn't know it when they heard it, but after translation, everyone understood it.
Until one of the Japanese on the other side mentioned Yu Xiaoqing's name - the scolding war escalated.
The main force even sent a semaphore to the machine gunners, asking them to help.
Ayi, the only officer in the entire Sichuan regiment who knew the flag language, found Long Wenwen, the regiment leader, and told him what the main force meant.
After hearing this, Long Wenwen said angrily: "With this strength, I might as well train for half an hour more!"
Speaking of training, Ayi couldn't help but turn his head and look at Bu La and others who were training in formation in the forest next to them.
The queue here is not a queue in the ordinary sense. It is not about standing in a military posture or doing goose steps, but an offensive formation training for the assault team.
It is also a three-three formation, but it is completely different from the Japanese one. Three people stand in a triangle, each guarding the area in front of them, which is very suitable for jungle combat.
"Then I'll go back to them."
"No need!" Ayi was about to go back and raise the flag, but was stopped by Long Wenwen: "Go and do whatever you have to do, and don't pay attention to them."
Ayi nodded and said nothing.
Although today's Commander Ayi is still in a mess when leading troops to fight, he is quite talented in the logistics management and training of the troops. Originally, he also wanted to join Wang Zhong's commando team, but now Long Wenwen is busy recruiting troops, and Wang Zhong
We have to train the commando team again, so here at Jiqipo, he can only be the supervisor.
"I heard that you have recently hired more than 200 people?"
"What's wrong?" Long Wenwen heard something in Ayi's words, and immediately turned to look at him and asked, "Are there any logistical difficulties?"
Ayi nodded and said: "The food allocated to us by the superiors was based on the number of people before. Now that there are more than 200 people at once, we may not have enough food this month."
Long Wenwen said: "Where is Milong? Didn't he cooperate with Wang Zhong and find a way to do business in the provincial capital?"
"Milong just received a batch of goods recently, and they haven't been distributed yet!"
Long Wenwen pondered for a moment, but couldn't think of any good way. If he really had a way, he wouldn't have to take his brothers to eat plantain hearts boiled in salt water to survive.
In fact, the Sichuan Army had a surplus of food, but Long Wenwen had no other good way to recruit troops. He simply used good food to attract the young and strong men who had defeated the troops. It only took one or two days, and it lasted for more than ten days.
Even the landlord's family doesn't have much surplus food to continue supplying.
"How many people are there in our group now?"
"No more, no less, two whole battalions!"
The Sichuan Army is now a strengthened regiment, and the maximum number of people in a battalion is 700. In other words, the Sichuan Army now has 1,400 people. If you add in the Yu Division, the number of people on the other side has already exceeded that of the other side.
Takeuchi Lianshan.
"Recruit another reinforced company, first prop up the stalls of the first battalion, and then stop recruiting people." Long Wenwen thought for a while.
Today, there are only the second and third battalions in the Sichuan Army Corps.
Most of the second battalion is made up of new recruits, and the third battalion is basically made up of veterans who have returned from Burma. There is only one battalion, and it still only has a designation, and it doesn't even have a major soldier.
"What about the food?"
"On the other side, Wang Zhong and I will solve the problem in the interim. Just do your business."
Ayi nodded, said nothing more, turned around and left to deal with chores.
Only when he became the leader of the regiment did Long Wenwen realize the difficulties. Now it was different from when he was on the other side. At that time, if he needed something, he could just go to the little devil to grab it. But now the little devil is far away on the other side, and in the middle
Across the Nu River, the supplies they wanted could only be supplied through logistics arranged by Shangfeng.
Even though Cao Lin has now hooked up with the commander-in-chief of the Yunnan Theater, he is still just a small deputy commander. There are only a handful of grassroots people like Long Wenwen in the national army who are engaged in military supplies. Most of them are
They are all related households, and if they can stretch out their hands, they will never shrink back. Ten percent of the supplies allocated by the superiors are actually delivered to the Sichuan Army. It is good to have three achievements.
Moreover, the relationship between the Sichuan Army and Master Yu is now somewhat subtle. Yu Xiaoqing is still the commander-in-chief of Jiang Defense. He himself does not bother to interfere in these matters, but the same cannot be said for others, such as Yu Xiaoqing’s old man.
Tang Ji, the old Jianghu sent by his father to assist him, is the deputy commander and supervisor of Yu Division.
He holds Shang Fang's sword in his hand. Although the old guy usually listens to Yu Xiaoqing on everything, if the critical moment comes, he can bypass Yu Xiaoqing and directly mobilize the entire Yu division.
In the original work, it was because of Tang Ji's intervention that Yu Xiaoqing did not launch a general attack on Nantianmen according to the established plan, but sold Long Wenwen and others who had invaded Shubao.
However, in the eyes of Long Wenwen, the problem that caused him so much headache was nothing but a trivial matter in the eyes of Wang Zhong and Mi Long.
Wang Zhong patted his chest and assured Long Wenwen on the spot that Long Wenwen didn't have to worry about the food issue, and Wang Zhong would be responsible for solving it.
Long Wenwen naturally trusted Wang Zhong. When he heard his assurance, his worries disappeared and he immediately became interested.
"The messenger."
"Within three meters."
Long Wenwen stood in the trench, using a telescope to observe the movements of the Japanese troops on the opposite side.
Meng Fan limped up to him and asked, "Master, what are your orders?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Go and call Krupp over here!"
Long Wen didn't even turn around, still looking at the mountains on the other side.
Meng Fangru reluctantly dragged his lame leg and brought Krupp to Long Wenwen.
"Captain, how many rounds will you shoot today?"
"Three shots! Three shots for each gun!"
"Have you seen that group of Japs doing the Taishen dance opposite? Give them a blast!" Long Wenwen said, pointing to the top of the hill on the other side, where the shirtless Japs were walking in crab steps, holding hands and spinning around in circles.
"If you hit, I will let you eat an extra bowl of rice today and add an egg to you. If you miss, you will be hungry tonight and not allowed to eat."
Normally, Krupp would change his face on the spot when he heard that he was not allowed to eat, but this time he was still smiling, not worried at all that he would not be able to eat.
Five minutes later, the two 92-step artillery had adjusted their angles and aimed at the position opposite Long Wenwen had just pointed to.
Krupp did not hesitate at all. When he ordered to fire, the continuous shells landed accurately on the Japanese army on the opposite side. It immediately caused a chain reaction. A series of explosions went off on the other side. Those few who were still dancing just now
The Japanese were immediately overwhelmed by the fireworks produced by the explosion.
"You have stabbed the devil in the heart!"
"What are you still doing? Go into a hole to avoid the cannon!"
Long Wenwen gave the order and took the lead in running back to the artillery pit in the trench.
Krupp next to the two infantry guns was stunned. There were only two shells. How could it be so powerful? Krupp, who had reacted, did not bother to shoot the remaining four shells. He immediately
He went into battle himself and pushed two infantry guns into the trench.
Sure enough, in less than a minute, the Japanese counterattack came. Artillery shells hit the Sichuan Army's position like a heavy rain. The main force was not spared either. He Shuguang, who was standing shirtless above the trench, was almost hit by a blast.
Send away a cannonball.
"A bunch of fools, this is a war! You think it's just a child calling a war, right?"
"The guns have been pointed at you for a long time."
Long Wenwen, who was hiding in the trench, made his sarcasm unceremonious.
The soldiers of the Sichuan Army Corps nearby looked at Long Wenwen like a god.
There is no way, he really pretended to do it.
In the woods, the commando team that was training reacted as soon as they heard the sound of artillery. Otherwise, the commando team would probably suffer casualties, because more than one artillery shell fell on the ground where they were training.
In the woods.
The Japanese artillery fire lasted for half an hour before stopping, as if to vent their anger.
And all of this formed a strong contrast with the previous series of explosions and soaring flames on the opposite position.
Everyone looked at their leader with a little more awe.
The total time from being hit by artillery shells to firing counterattacks was no more than one minute. This meant that the Japanese artillery had long been aimed at them. If Long Wenwen hadn't just asked Krupp to fire two shots on the opposite side, everyone would have really lost their sights.
Was attacked by Japanese soldiers.
Half an hour later, a military jeep came to the edge of the Jiqipo position with an angry roar, and He Shuguang, who was still holding his accordion, jumped out of the car with an angry look on his face.
"Who fired the cannon just now?" He Shuguang did not dare to trouble Long Wenwen and Wang Zhong, so he could only vent his anger on the soldiers of the Sichuan Army, questioning the surrounding soldiers of the Sichuan Army at the top of his lungs.
But no one paid any attention to him. One bold person even gave He Shuguang a blank look.
He Shuguang became angry instantly. When he grabbed the soldier and was about to take action, the sound of a row of guns being raised was heard all around him, and dozens of guns were pointed at him at the same time.
"Yo yo yo..."
"Isn't this the confidant of our Master Yu, He Shuguang and Chief He?" Wang Zhong led the soldiers of the commando team up to He Shuguang and said with a playful expression: "If Chief He is not stationed in the position, he came to our small temple.
What are you doing? Could it be that Master Yu has some important military information to convey?"
When He Shuguang saw Wang Zhong coming over, although the anger in his heart had not subsided much, he also knew the severity. To be honest, he was just a captain and company commander, and his rank was the same as Bu La before he was transferred to the commando team. However, Wang Zhong was
He is the deputy commander of the major.
"Or is it that Chief He is here to thank our brother for saving his life?"
"Humph!" He Shuguang said coldly.
"Why did I hear someone say that just now there was a man wearing glasses, shirtless and calling on all the brothers to join him in a scolding battle with the Japanese on the opposite side? He was only a little bit beaten to pieces by the Japanese's shells.
?”
Hearing Wang Zhong's sarcastic words, He Shuguang didn't have the nerve to stay any longer, so he turned around and got in the car and left.
Watching He Shuguang leave, the smile on Wang Zhong's face gradually disappeared, and his expression gradually became serious.
"Listen to me! Our Sichuan Legion, brothers are all brothers of the Sichuan Legion. Our Sichuan Legion is now an independent regiment and is not subject to Yu Xiaoqing's control. If there are people from Yu Division coming to show off their power in the future, I will blast them out directly.
.”
"Did you hear that clearly?"
"Listen clearly!"
At this time, Long Wenzhang was in the front trench, telling stories to the surrounding leaders.
He was telling a story from his childhood. At that time, he was thin and small, often bullied and beaten. He looked at other people's faces every day and coveted temporary comfort.
But later he learned to strike first and gain the upper hand, and from then on he made those who bullied him wait to see his face.
But most of the people who heard this story only regarded it as a story, and only a few heard the real intention of Long Wenwen telling them this story.
Today, they are just the thin and small Long Wenwen, but the Japanese on the other side is the big man who bullied Long Wenwen.
In the past, they always acted based on the enemy's look. When the enemy attacked, they defended passively. When the enemy was repelled, they cheered and celebrated another 'victory' and that they had survived again.
But now, they can take the initiative to launch an attack and start a war.
The enemy's artillery fire was like the incompetent fury of the big man.
······
The next day, several trucks of grain were delivered to the Jiqipo position. These were new rice that Milong had used for several years, old rice exchanged with those big households who had stored a lot of grain. Although the old rice was not new rice,
It is sweet and has a lot of nutritional value, but for these soldiers, the nutritional value is empty, and it is real if it can fill the stomach.
It doesn't matter what old or new rice is, as long as it can fill the stomach without eating roots and leaves, it is a good life.
Moreover, when new rice is exchanged for old rice, the ratio is 1:1.5.
These old rice are not the kind that have been aged for four or five years. Most of them are only aged for three years, and some are from last year.
Long Wenwen's eyes were shining, and he was in a particularly good mood as he looked at a small mountain of grain piled up in front of him as if he were looking at some rare treasure.
"Brother, you will be my biological brother from now on!" Long Wenwen almost pounced on Wang Zhong and started chewing him.
"Okay, don't be disgusted with me!" Wang Chong rolled his eyes at him and quietly distanced himself from Long Wenwen.
