Rise From Eight Hundred

"Tuanzuo, you're back!" Lei Xiong walked out of the door with relief on his face.

"Now can we confirm how many people are stationed in Mangshang Mountain in the 20th Army? Which unit is it under the 20th Army?" Tang Dao asked as he walked into the temporary regiment headquarters.

Although he and Lei Xiong had many exchanges on the radio in the past two days, the situation was not clear, and Tang Dao could not obtain much valuable information. Comrade Lao Wu's feedback was also unclear. After all, the 20th Army Corps was subordinate to the theater commander. Under the direct command of the Ministry of Defense, only those within the 20th Army Corps and the Theater Command know exactly how many troops will be deployed.

"After inquiries from the outside and reconnaissance by our troops outside the mountain, it is currently confirmed that there is a brigade plus a regiment, with at least 7,000 people! As for that army, because I did not let Gu Xishui catch his tongue in order to avoid another conflict , so there is no way to know, the 67th Army is helping to verify it," Lei Xiong replied.

"000 people?" A hint of coldness flashed in Tang Dao's eyes. "You really think highly of our Four Lines Regiment. Once deployed, it has the strength of an infantry division."

"The group seat means

"The 7,000 people may just show us that, based on my understanding of that person, if we want to firmly control our Four Elements Group, we must either not make any progress, or we must submit to him and apologize to him for asking for help, instead of overwhelming him with absolute strength. How can elite soldiers like our Fourth Army Regiment, who have fought against an infantry regiment of the Japanese army, do this?" Tang Dao snorted coldly.

"Yes! That's what I considered, so I ordered the entire army to build fortifications with all their strength in the past two days. No rash advances are allowed to avoid direct conflict with them." Lei Xiong nodded, with guilt on his face.

"In addition, I also want to review. Although I ordered the brothers to be more vigilant, I still underestimated the ambitions of some people. The scouts were too far away from my main force, causing all the brothers in an infantry squad to be trapped in the mountains. According to another and Their infantry squad, about a kilometer away, said they heard no gunshots and the brothers were probably still alive."

"We will discuss the review later. Besides, this is not your fault, Brother Lei. I was also careless. I thought it would be no problem to bypass the 20th Army's defense zone. I didn't expect that these idiots went out of their way to block us. It takes a lot of effort to take the initiative to take the job! As long as the brothers are still alive, the soldiers of my Fourth Army Regiment can die on the battlefield against Japan, but they must not die from the machinations of their own people!" Tang Dao was slightly relieved. , waved his hand.

Entering the house, Tang Dao took off the helmet on his head and looked at the hand-drawn map of Mangshang Mountain on the table, and then asked: "How far is our unit from entering the mountainous area?"

"Less than five kilometers!"

"Okay then, let the communications platoon send the message to the staff of the theater headquarters. Since our unit is short of many personnel, we are recruiting new recruits along the way. In order to boost the morale of the new recruits and see the might of our army, we have decided to conduct live-fire troops in the wilderness around Mangshan Mountain Town. During the performance, all ammunition consumption will be borne by our department, and we have specially notified the theater headquarters!" Tang Dao slapped the map hard.

"In addition, my order is to temporarily stop the construction of fortifications by the entire army. When the baggage company and guard company arrive, all personnel will be equipped with weapons and equipment. The missing light and heavy weapons will be supplied by the munitions department.

Then, except for the baggage company and the special agent company, all battalions and companies of the entire army arrived on standby according to the positions issued by the regiment headquarters.

The first artillery company is responsible for receiving 6 150-heavy mortars. It has 4 mountain guns and 6 150-heavy mortars and will shell the designated area according to the order of the regiment headquarters;

The Second Artillery Company is responsible for receiving 12 combat defense guns. It has 6 infantry guns, 12 combat defense guns, and 2 machine guns. It will shell designated areas according to the orders of the regiment headquarters;

Order the entire regiment to prepare 100 rounds of ammunition for the riflemen, 200 rounds for the assault riflemen, 20 rounds for the grenade soldiers, 500 rounds for the light machine guns, 1,000 rounds for the heavy machine guns, and 50 rounds for each fire support company's mortars. , upon receiving the order, all light and heavy firearms were fired at the designated area with full force.

If you are very good and want to overwhelm me and the Four Elements Group with more people, then I will give them a good look at how hard my fists are and whether their heads are strong enough!'

Lei Xiong was speechless!

He didn't expect that Tang Dao's handling was so simple and crude. He had no intention of taking the upper-level route through the 67th Army, 59th Army and other related households. He just came up and pulled out more than 20 artillery pieces and dozens of heavy machine guns. Show muscles.

"But can the theater headquarters agree to this?" Lei Xiong was still a little unsure after all.

"Our unit is not under the jurisdiction of the Fifth War Zone. It doesn't matter whether they agree or not. I'm just giving a routine notice!" Tang Dao looked coldly. "Besides, don't they know why my unit is conducting live-fire military exercises? If they don't want to offend that person, they would sacrifice our small infantry regiment. Then they are really wrong!'

"Where do you plan to place the shelling area and all the light and heavy machine gun firing areas?"

"It's on the edge of the mountain. Didn't you say that there are already troops from the 20th Army there? Then choose that place. In order to avoid accidentally injuring friendly troops, after an hour, we will notify the surrounding troops stationed in Baili by means of clear power on and inform our troops. The artillery fire area is about to be bombarded, please leave them temporarily, those who do not leave will be responsible for the consequences!"

Tang Dao's decision caused silence in the regiment headquarters.

What is this? This has gone far beyond the scope of the so-called military exercise. It is simply an armed provocation. If you are not careful, it will end in a misfire.

"Regiment leader, this, this, is not good! Once you hurt someone, I'm afraid..." Gu Shaoxun, who followed Tang Dao back to the regiment headquarters quickly, couldn't help but stutter a little.

"What's wrong with this? When they captured more than a dozen of my brothers, why didn't they care about hurting friendly forces?" Tang Dao looked back at his deputy, and his cold eyes made Gu Shaoxun swallow his words.

"Please think twice, if the 20th Corps gets angry and fights back, the situation may be difficult to deal with!" Lei Xiong thought for a while and advised.

Lei Xiong's personality was originally strong. If he was a company commander, someone would treat his brothers like this, I'm afraid he would be more furious than Tang Dao at this time, and he might not even bring people to the door to fight with the fig leaf of military exercises.

But now he is no longer the little captain company commander, but the second in command of an infantry regiment. He sits in a different position, and his butt determines his head. He has become more mature than before, and he has more considerations before and after, and he is in charge of the fate of thousands of people.

"Counterattack? Well, my military order will also make it very clear. If our troops encounter an unknown attack, the entire army will immediately turn the military exercise into actual combat. The first company of the first battalion and the first company of the second battalion will be responsible for occupying these two positions first. The first artillery company will extend the artillery fire, and the second artillery company will continue to move the artillery position forward to open up a road for the entire army. The entire third battalion and the guard company will be responsible for breaking its flank, and the baggage company will be responsible for transporting the ammunition needed by the entire army.

It just so happens that the ammunition transported this time is really the limit of our army's transportation capacity, which seriously slows down our army's marching speed. Consuming half of the ammunition allows all soldiers to experience the feeling of fighting against a large-scale army. It is simply the best actual combat training ground!" Tang Dao's fingers pointed on the map, and his voice was not loud, but it was so cold that several officers present were sweating on their foreheads.

They all knew that this was not Tang Dao's angry words, but he really thought so.

It was not his intention to fight with the 20th Corps, but he was definitely not afraid.

However, in such a terrible fight, let alone the casualties on both sides, this internal friction that was enough to spread across the country would definitely drive Tang Dao, the chief officer, into the abyss.

Of course, the corps commander who took the initiative to provoke all this would not end up well. The reason for this could be found out by the secret service system under the principal without much effort.

"You don't have to worry. If this matter causes serious consequences, I, the head of the regiment, will bear all the consequences. It has nothing to do with you two. All military orders can be signed by me alone." Tang Dao looked at the two subordinates with cold sweat on their foreheads and sighed slightly.

Lei Xiong and Gu Shaoxun are both determined people. They may not be afraid of the Japanese, a foreign race, but they have been in this system for too long and have become accustomed to the hierarchy. They will always be restrained when facing people with high positions and power.

Little do they know that this is a chaotic time. Military rank and status are superficial, and strength is the kingly way. If a high-ranking officer comes and uses chicken feathers as a token of authority to bully you, how can we fight this war?

When faced with such provocation, no matter who he is, even if he is the king of heaven, he has to be punched.

Respect is earned through fighting, this is true for Japan, and it is also true for some people who bully others by taking advantage of their power.

"Commander, you are looking down on Lei. Since the military order is issued by the regiment, how can only you sign it? No matter how ugly my handwriting is, I, Lei Xiong, have to sign it!" Lei Xiong was immediately unhappy when he heard Tang Dao's words.

"Hehe, although I am a little worried, since this has happened, as the second deputy of the Four Lines Regiment, I have to follow you two. This signature must be indispensable for me, Gong Shaoxun." Gong Shaoxun also adjusted his mood and said very seriously.

Tang Dao looked at the two deputies who were going to advance and retreat with him, and his cold face finally eased a lot.

This is the group he wants. For the sake of his brothers, no matter how hard the wall is, we will hit it together!

This is the bad luck of the Tang Corps Commander. He originally thought that with an infantry division of tens of thousands of people, he could defeat the Four-Line Regiment. Even if Tang Dao was as tough as in Xuzhou City, he would not be able to pass and was forced to stay in the war zone to participate in the war. He not only saved his previously lost face, but also took revenge.

Unfortunately, he met Tang Dao, a guy who did not play by the rules. If Tang Dao still wanted to stay in this system, he naturally could not take out all his belongings to fight with all his strength like now, even if he was tough.

But Tang Dao really didn't want to play with them as he wanted to frame them. He didn't even plan to play with you in this circle. Why would he care so much?

Maybe more than 2,000 people are not enough to beat an infantry division with tens of thousands of troops, but if the two armies exchanged fire in such a substantial way, it would be like smashing the pot. No one who is particularly good can have a good meal!
