Chapter Thirty-Nine German Armourer
"Captain Hu, if you can't beat him, it's clear that there is nothing to be embarrassing." Gui Yongqing saw through Hu Fei's trick at a glance. Not only did he see through it, but he also exposes it!
"Your cavalry brigade has only a few hundred people, and it is normal for you to not be able to defeat a Japanese brigade of thousands of people. I am not an unreasonable feudal warlord, and I won't blame you for this. However, it's too ignorant that a brigade of Japanese troops dares to be so arrogant and domineering! If you don't give them some colors, you won't show the abilities of my Chinese soldiers!"
Speaking of this, Gui Yongqing's face had already appeared flushed. He was not afraid of fighting the Japanese, and he was willing to make achievements on the battlefield of the anti-Japanese war. Otherwise, Gui Yongqing would not have led the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps and the Japanese invaders to fight bloody battles on the battlefields of Songhu and Nanjing.
Commander Gui just couldn't find a stage suitable for his performance. Although he had fought all the dead and evil battles, his fame was always far from the fame of his troops. Today seemed to be a good opportunity.
Gui Yongqing ordered the 27th Army to launch an attack on the Japanese army following! First, the artillery regiment of the 27th Army was stunned by the follower of the Japanese brigade. Then Gui Yongqing ordered his 24th Division and the 45th Division to prepare for the 8th Division to encircle him, and he was ready to wipe out the Japanese brigade!
General Gui was ambitious to kill the Japanese and made meritorious contributions, so how could the Japanese stare at him to get what they wanted? When the artillery fire of the 27th Army bombed the Japanese invaders, the Japanese reconnaissance planes had already found out the reality of the 27th Army. This was an elite army in Chongqing, an A-type army with three main divisions and heavy artillery regiments. How could such a unit be dealt with by a mere infantry brigade?
The Air Force knew the strength of the Chinese army, and the spies on the ground investigated the number and commander's name and resume of the army.
The Japanese captain looked at it and said, Oh, it turns out that I was chasing Gui Yongqing? Gui Yongqing's opponent is not me, his opponent should be Lieutenant General Kenji Doihara! Knowing that Gui Yongqing's powerful Japanese captain immediately led the Japanese troops to break through!
To be honest, the Japanese army in 1938 was indeed stronger than the Chinese army in the same period. Although the 27th Army was a unit adapted from the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps as the main body, although the soldiers' qualities and firepower of this army were among the top among the Chinese army at that time, when nearly a thousand Japanese troops broke through the siege, the officers and soldiers of the 27th Army were still unable to surround them and wipe them out.
After a hard battle, the infantry brigade of the 14th Division of the Japanese Division finally broke through in an established manner. Gui Yongqing didn't care much about the breakthrough of the Japanese brigade. General Gui was a general, and he planned a large-scale battle with tens of thousands of people in his mind. Such an infantry brigade with more than a thousand people was not too concerned about the eyes of Commander Gui. Just run away, what's that?
Gui Yongqing gave Hu Fei a note and asked him to hand it over to Long Muhan, the commander of the 88th Division. There was only one sentence on the note, which was to order Long Muhan to stick to Lanfeng. Without his orders from Gui Yongqing, you must not take a step back!
In terms of organization, the 88th Division was not originally a subordinate unit of the 27th Army. Because Gui Yongqing was a popular man in front of Principal Jiang and was a direct line, the Military Commission temporarily handed over one of the 88th Division, one of the only four German divisions in the country at that time, to Gui Yongqing during this Lanfeng Battle.
This letter is the military order given by Gui Yongqing to the 88th Division to defend Lanfeng City! Gui Yongqing explained that after Hu Fei went to Lanfeng to hand over this order to Commander Long Muhan, he left it directly until Lanfeng didn't have to come back. From now on, Hu Fei and his cavalry brigade have become subordinates of the 88th Division, and the Independent Cavalry brigade follows the 88th Division's German division to defend Lanfeng City together!
The 88th Division was adapted from the 2nd Division, the chairman and guards of the original commander. The first division commander was the famous Yu Jishi. Such a unit is naturally the elite among the elite, the direct line among the direct line! Hu Fei's ability to plaster into the 88th Division is not to mention that it has an important role in improving his identity!
From this point of view, Gui Yongqing is actually very caring for Hu Fei. Don’t you want to join the regular? I’ll give you the most formal regular army in the country to let you go! As long as you can stay in the 88th Division for two years, even if you are just a small company commander, who dares to say you are a bandit? Who dares to say you are not the Central Army?
After listening carefully to Gui Yongqing's explanation of the order, Hu Fei felt a little moved. After raising his hand and saluted respectfully, he jumped onto the war horse and led the troops away!
When he went to Lanfeng, even if the Independent Cavalry Brigade was completely free from the bandits, he will be a well-known national regular officer from now on. It would be impossible to say that Hu Fei was not excited at all. I hope everything will go well after he arrived in Lanfeng.
With a beautiful vision of the future, Hu Fei and his cavalry brigade came to Lanfeng City smoothly.
It was already evening when Hu Fei arrived outside Lanfeng City. Since Lanfeng City was defended by the 88th Division of the Central Army's direct line, his vigilance was naturally very high. After Hu Fei showed all the documents he had on him, he almost wiped his lips. Only then did he temporarily dispel the suspicion of the defending army and let him enter the city.
After entering the city, it took a lot of effort to find out where Long Muhan, the commander of the 88th Division, was going to the division headquarters. As a result, Hu Fei started to mobilize the German and equipment divisions in the city on a large scale!
Cars were driving around, teams of soldiers wearing steel helmets and leather boots ran quickly across the streets. The sound of commands, car motors, and the clacking sound of leather boots stepping on the ground. Various sounds echoed over the streets of the city, and the air added a lot of tension. What's wrong? Are you going to fight with the Japanese?
Thinking of joining the German Armored Division and becoming a member of the central government's main force to fight against the Japanese invaders, Hu Fei couldn't help but feel more excited. He didn't know if the 88th Division would let the ghost-headed sword be used. If he didn't let the ghost-headed sword be used, where would he put it?
With a messy thought in his mind, Hu Fei asked Gou Tianxiao to find a guide from the 88th Division. No one has come to Lanfeng City before, and no one will lead the way. When will you find the division headquarters to meet Long Muhan?
It is simple to find a person who leads the way. The city is full of officers and soldiers of the 88th Division, and any one of them can be guided by them. If you don’t have much skill, Gou Tianxiao came over with a second lieutenant. This person is from the 88th Division, and he knows the location of the division headquarters.
