Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven Surprise Attack on Bailing Temple

On November 22, 1936, the Sui army who stayed in Guisui boarded the car early in the morning as usual, and left the city in multiple columns. But the direction is not to the east of the city, but to the west of the city. It is not a drill, but a real game. The Battle of Bailing Temple started on this day, led by Sun Lanfeng. Another important reason why Tanaka was careless was that Guisui was far away from the Bailing Temple, more than 300 miles away, even if he rode a horse, he would not be able to run for a day or two. But he forgot that Fu Zuoyi had special forces and earth tanks, and the earth tanks ran faster than horses, and they didn't need to rest at all.

He also forgot that Fu Zuoyi's Sui army is known as the Seven and a Half Route, which is only half the route less than the Eight Route. They have always paid attention to the three speeds in war, that is, gathering quickly, setting off quickly, and marching fast. Long-distance raids are just a subject in their usual exercises. . At 8 o'clock in the evening, Sun Lanfeng rushed to the vicinity of the Bailing Temple, but when he got out of the car, he broke out in a cold sweat. Due to the heavy snowfall, the sign set in advance could not be found! Looking around, apart from ice and snow, there is not even a residential building, let alone the Bailing Temple. Looking up at the sky, the cloud is so dense that it is impossible to use the stars to find the direction.

This is the most feared thing on the grassland. Without a sense of direction, how do you know whether the Bailing Temple is far or not?Don't let everyone mess around for a long time. It will be a big joke if you are still outside the Bailing Temple at dawn. Sun Lanfeng didn't dare to report this situation to Fu Zuoyi. If the latter knew about it, he would be so anxious to scold his mother. A day of hard marching and three days of careful preparation will all be for naught in the blink of an eye? In fact, throughout the ages, such unlucky things have emerged one after another.Victory is not so easy to fight, it is often an extremely small change, an unexpected accident that no one can predict, and all your previous efforts will be wasted, in vain.

Just when he didn't know what to do, someone suddenly discovered the "treasure of the grassland", and Sun Lanfeng was overjoyed when he heard the news. Sometimes, the distance between baby and dung is very small, and sometimes they are completely the same thing.For example, the "treasure of the grassland" is actually a piece of cow dung. In the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, there is no coal, no trees, no electricity, and only dried cow dung is collected as fuel. Therefore, wherever there is dried cow dung, there must be people, and most of them are places where people gather.

Where there are the most concentrated families here, it must be the Bailing Temple. The Bailing Temple is surrounded by mountains. Within a hundred miles, there is no drinking water, but there is water in the temple.Where there is water, there is everything, and Bailing Temple has become a market. An ordinary piece of dried cow dung finally brought Fu Zuoyi's attack plan back to life. That night, it was freezing cold, and the temperature reached minus 20 degrees Celsius. Strictly speaking, it was not necessarily suitable for military operations, but it was precisely Lao Fu's intention to choose such a day to launch a surprise attack.

Because it is beneficial to the surprise side. Surprise attack sounds poetic, but it is actually the hardest and most tiring thing.If you want to be strange, you must surprise the other party. If you can do what others can do, then it is not surprising. On the grassland, you can see everything at a glance. There are no mountains for you to sneak over, and there are no tunnels to dig. The only thing you can rely on is the severe cold weather. The severe cold forced most of the puppet Mongolian soldiers to hide at home to keep warm, and no one was willing to run around in and out. After Sun Lanfeng resolved the outer security, he quickly approached the inner position of Bailing Temple.

For the Bailing Temple, Sun Lanfeng adopted a combination of virtual and real tactics, the west is virtual, the south is real, and the main attacking force is concentrated in the south. But his combat intention was discovered by a lama. Although this lama is wearing a cassock, he is holding a commanding knife in his hand. He is fierce and fierce. He is not at all like a monk who eats vegetarian food and chant Buddha, and has nothing to do with the world. At that time, no one knew about it, so they thought it was a scum among the lamas of Bailing Temple. A few months later, the man showed up in Tokyo and gave a presentation to a large group of obsessed Japanese fans.

The name of the report is: I have been lurking in Inner Mongolia for 20 years! It turned out to be a Japanese agent. His real name is Katsushima Kakuyoshi, and he can speak fluent Mongolian language. For more than 20 years, he has been lurking in Inner Mongolia as a lama, specializing in map surveying and intelligence espionage. No one can recognize his true face in Lushan, and he can indeed be called an ace agent. Garrisoning the Bailing Temple is King De's cavalry unit, with a total of nearly 3,000 people.However, all the commanders were Japanese military officers, there were as many as 40 to 50 people, and the commander-in-chief was Kakuyoshi Katsushima.

Sensing that Sun Lanfeng's attack was focused on the south, Shengdao concentrated all his heavy firepower there, with a dozen light and heavy machine guns, and the Sui Army's offensive rhythm was forced to slow down. Sun Lanfeng organized seven charges in a row, but he was still unable to break into the inner position of Bailing Temple until the next morning.At that time, it was almost dawn. For the Sui army, this is not a good sign, it indicates that the puppet Mongolian army and even the Kwantung army will reinforce Bailing Temple at any time, and their own side will turn into a disadvantaged and dangerous situation.

In Guisui, 300 miles away, Fu Zuoyi was also anxious. Sun Lanfeng was stuck in the Bailing Temple, and he was unable to advance, and he was unwilling to retreat. The changes that followed were unimaginable. It is said that Fu Zuoyi usually has strict self-discipline and does not smoke or drink, but he stayed up all night and smoked cigarettes one after another. Even the guards came in to bring tea, but he refused because he was afraid of affecting his thinking. The head coach was so nervous, all the staff members naturally did not dare to neglect, those who answered the phone answered the phone, and those who sent the telegram sent the telegram, coming in and out, they were extremely busy.

The atmosphere in the entire war room was so depressing that everyone was about to explode! A young staff officer couldn't bear it anymore, so he boldly said to Fu Zuoyi: Commander, this battle will definitely be won. Fu Zuoyi thought he had some great ideas, so he quickly raised his head and asked: Why? The other party's answer was unexpected: because the commander of the army is very lucky! Old Fu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the young man was deliberately adjusting the atmosphere, and he was really nervous and lost his composure. He waved his hand and went, but he couldn't help laughing. That's right, I, Fu Zuoyi, have been fighting for so many years, can't I even break through the barrier in front of me? On this grassland, I must realize a dream for myself, a dream from a master of defense to a king of offense. For this dream, even if the surrounding roads are full of sand, even if the mountains in front of me are hazy, I have to open my mind to break through, fight, and fight! He stood up and called Sun Lanfeng: I will never withdraw until the Bailing Temple is taken down. You must make a quick decision and solve the problem for me before dawn. Now I order, transfer all special forces! Sun Lanfeng suddenly realized that he had brought something good, but he forgot to use it. 20 artillery pieces lined up, including mortars and mountain artillery, directly bombarded the light and heavy machine gun bunkers of the puppet Mongolian army. In a moment's time, the bunker was blown to the ground. After the main firepower point was eliminated, the artillery fire continued to extend towards the enemy standing in the temple, and the earth tanks rushed in through the gap. Seeing that the bunker was smashed and the Sui army was about to rush in, Katsushima was in a hurry and desperately organized the puppet Mongolian army to seal the gap. Of course, earth tanks cannot be compared with real tanks, especially the lack of protection for the driver and the outer edge of the car, which is its most fatal weakness. The first car was shot, and the driver was killed on the spot. The second one hit was not a gun but a cluster grenade and the whole car was blown up, luckily the driver was only injured and not killed. This buddy is really good, even crawled into the cab of the first earth tank even when he was injured. Step on the accelerator and keep going! The puppet army was staring wide-eyed, waiting and looking for the third car behind. How could they have imagined that the car that seemed to have been paralyzed could be restarted and rushed over. Not good, let's go soon. While fighting in the south was in full swing, a Sui army cavalry had quietly circled around from the north and burned down the airport. This is exactly the style of play that Dong Qiwu used in Honggertu, that is, the three branches of the special forces of the Sui Army used it in sequence until the opponent's psychology was crushed bit by bit. The fire at the airport made Katsushima's face pale with fright, and the way back was cut off. He was either killed or captured alive, and he will make a bragging report in the future. Taking advantage of the fact that the encirclement was not completely closed, Katsushima ran wildly. On this prairie night, there is no sound of piano, only the sound of guns and shouts of killing, and only the sound of bowstrings crashing, and thousands of horses galloping. After two hours of fierce fighting, Sun Lanfeng completely occupied the Bailing Temple. After Wang Ying, De Wang's elite main force also collapsed. The most pitiful thing was that Yushan. He was still kept in the dark until the end of the Battle of Bailing Temple. Fu Zuoyi's meticulous intelligence work completely defeated the head of the Guisui spy agency. Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf The collapse of Bailing Temple was like a slap in the face of Tian Zhong.He was not reconciled, and wanted to make a fortune on Fu Zuoyi. This time Tanaka didn't dare to be careless, he was much more cautious, and specially strengthened the intelligence reconnaissance before the action - of course, he couldn't go to that idiot Yuyama again, he had to figure it out by himself. After learning that the Sui army had retreated and only one battalion was left behind at the Bailing Temple, Tanaka became malicious. Long victories are bound to be proud, since the Sui army's defense is empty, if he is not killed at this time to return his carbine, what chance is there to regain the situation. Immediately mobilize the army and order generals, but find that no one is available. De Wang can't fight, Wang Ying was wounded, another puppet general, Li Shouxin, wants to defend the old nest Shangdu, who should he choose? There is another one: Lei Zhongtian, the deputy commander of the "Great Han Rebel Army". This "Deputy Commander Lei" used to be a young man in the Northwest Army in his early years, and he also joined the Anti-Japanese Allied Army. Tian Zhong mobilized his troops again, led by Lei Zhongtian, and prepared to launch a counterattack against Bailing Temple someday. But to Tanaka's disappointment, Fu Zuoyi is not someone else, but Jiu Sheng is not arrogant.After seeing Tanaka's spooky appearance, he immediately sent Sun Lanfeng to lead the main force to help defend Bailing Temple. In "The Two Tigers of the Fu Family", Sun Lanfeng originally specialized in offense, and he captured the Bailing Temple. According to the previous rules, Dong Qiwu should be dispatched when it was his turn to defend. However, using people is like fighting. Soldiers are impermanent, and people are also impermanent. There are no definite rules. Sun Lanfeng's biggest advantage in defending the Bailing Temple is that he has personal experience of raiding the Bailing Temple and is very familiar with the local environment. On this point, Sun Lanfeng is definitely stronger than Dong Qiwu, so it is better to use Dong than Sun. After Sun Lanfeng took office, the first thing he thought of was reverse thinking: Back then, I used long-distance night raids to take over the Bailing Temple. Could it be that Lei Zhongtian would not follow me in this way? Take precautions against everything, this must be prevented. On this night, the weather suddenly turned bad, with strong winds blowing since midnight, and then heavy snow fluttered down the ground, covering the earth with snow in a short while. If you don't have the experience of running on a snowy night like Sun Lanfeng, you may take it for granted that the enemy will never come to rob my camp with God's help tonight and the difficulty of marching. In this way, everyone can sleep well. After Sun Lanfeng had the experience of the surprise attack, he was not happy but worried when he encountered this situation, because his understanding was just the opposite. We can often read sentences like this: When the strong wind came suddenly, a loud sound was heard, and a tooth flag was blown off. There is no need for the commander-in-chief to ask, the counselors will rush up and bite their ears right away - it's nothing else, someone will come to rob the camp tonight. Sure enough, among all the predictions, none is more accurate and great than this.Under normal circumstances, there is no doubt that XX must be "robbed". Sun Lanfeng didn't check to see if the flag was folded, but sent additional security posts around the Bailing Temple, and called them regularly, demanding that no movement in the vicinity should be missed. The night passed by little by little, and there was no change. When it was dawn, I suddenly received a phone call. The phone call was nothing at first, and the other party reported that the guard post was more than 2,000 meters away from the Bailing Temple, and a flock of sheep was found moving here. People who live on the grassland all year round are probably familiar with flocks of sheep. It is estimated that no one has had a special interest in it since the guard post. If Sun Lanfeng hadn't spoken first, perhaps this information would have to be "filtered" in advance. up. Sun Lanfeng's living environment is not much different from that of the guard posts. Under the same blue sky, isn't the grassland just composed of sheep, yurts and various lama temples? But Sun Lanfeng frowned immediately: This is by no means an ordinary flock of sheep! Why do you say that? Because of the time and place where they appeared, it cannot be theorized in general, but can only be described in two words, which is called weird. It is not unusual for sheep to eat grass when they come out. What is strange is that the weather is freezing and snow is everywhere, and there is no grass to eat on the grassland. At this moment, the genius has just shone brightly. I have never seen anyone come out to graze at this time. Do sheep also like to roam in the dark night like a poet? It can be deduced from this that it is not a group of sheep, but a group of wolves in sheep's clothing. As I said, Sun Lanfeng is a bit impatient, he likes to move but not to be quiet, but he also has a careful side, so it's not surprising that he will be like this. Sun Lanfeng gave the order without hesitation: Enter the position and prepare for battle. Another hasty phone call came, which verified his guess extremely accurately. The troops had already exchanged fire with the "wolf", and it was indeed the enemy soldier's disguise. Sun Lanfeng ordered the troops to drag the "pseudo-sheep" back, but at the same time he was thinking about how to play tricks on the extremely ridiculous "Deputy Commander Lei". Those who can come up with such a trick must have no doubts about the time and place where the flock will appear, so why don't I use my own methods to deal with them. Hurry up and mobilize the troops to play the role of "Pleasant Goat" collectively. Grassland troops can't pretend to be anything else, but this is very convenient, just wear leather clothes flipped over. "Pleasant Goat" circled around behind Lei Zhongtian, punched and rushed, and the brain-dead Lei Zhongtian was also shot, turning into a "dead wolf" on the spot. Lost again. One, two, but three, three times in a row, not only Tanaka was dumbfounded, De Wang was also anxious. Fu Zuoyi is so powerful, if he continues to pursue the victory, won't he lose all his money? At this time, he did a very unjust thing. He planned to transfer the remaining cavalry divisions away, leaving only a small number of troops to defend at Damiaozi. Wang Ying understood at a glance that King De knew that Da Miaozi had become Fu Zuoyi's next attack target, and wanted to use him as a shield to prevent the last bit of capital from being lost along with it. This Wang Ying is not a kind person, so he will quit now. Well, after three battles, didn't I also lose a lot of money to go in, the disaster is imminent, how do you know how to preserve your strength? He came forward through Japanese advisers to force the cavalry division to stay, and at the same time whispered to the Japanese: Although the cavalry division stayed, it had no fighting spirit for a long time. If you let them stand guard in front, you and I can sleep well at night. Sleepy? The Japanese consultant nodded again and again: In your opinion, what should we do? It's easy to handle, take them down, and let our "big Han volunteers" stand guard. Wang Ying and his Japanese advisers didn't expect that this move was wrong, which was right for Fu Zuoyi's mind. Previously, Fu Zuoyi specially set up a secret agency to instigate rebellion against Damiaozi's puppet army.The Jin Xianzhang puppet army that was replaced this time happened to be the group that successfully instigated the rebellion. At the beginning, since Jin was willing to join the puppet army with the reputation of being a traitor, he naturally came here to get promoted and make a fortune, but seeing Fu Zuoyi's fierceness, he had no chance of getting ahead except for being bruised and swollen in front of him. In life, one must either be famous or get rich, but after working hard for a long time, neither of these two things is achieved, and even surviving becomes a problem. It is not suitable to stay here, it is better to go to a better place. Now Wang Ying gives the opportunity to change the guard, a god-sent opportunity, isn't it just right. Fu Zuoyi gave a heavy reward, but he said that the matter of contacting and surrendering had to be handled according to the rules of the world. What are the rules of the rivers and lakes? The book made it very clear that in order to join the gang, one had to submit a "Certificate of Voting".If I don't get a few Japanese heads over here, how will I know whether you are genuine or fake. Therefore, Jin Xianzhang rushed into the camp, cut off more than 20 Japanese advisers, and then cooperated with the Sui army to kill King De's cavalry division. King De became the bare king, and the "Big Han Rebel Army" also came to an end. Tanaka was furious: more than 20 Japanese consultants were not caught by Fu Zuoyi, but cut off by the puppet army "cultivated" by one hand, which is too angry. Without further ado, disarm.The gun will only be used as a rolling pin for you. Shi Yousan, the "Lu Bu of the Republic of China", who has been in and out of the business of traitors, once had a famous saying: Those who don't know think that traitors are good, you will know when you go in, it's not easy! Wang Ying is an old gangster, so he naturally understood this truth. Looking at the Japanese's face, he knew that he couldn't stay here any longer, so he ran away alone. Regarding the Battle of Damiaozi, the stupid Yushan was still the same as before. He had no involvement from the beginning to the end, let alone providing information to the Kwantung Army. Drinking all day to soothe your sorrows. This one is completely dizzy. But the Kwantung Army has not forgotten that there is such a person in Guisui.They sent a telegram to Yushan, requesting that the corpses of those dead ghost consultants be returned. Yu Shan came to Fu Zuoyi, but Fu Zuoyi said he was powerless. Yes, I know, there seems to be something like that.But that was done by Wang Ying's subordinate, Jin Xianzhang. Was Jin Xianzhang trained by me? No, he was not trained by your Kwantung Army.You should ask Tanaka about this matter. Yushan became anxious, saying that was in the past, isn't Jin Xianzhang your subordinate now? Fu Zuoyi still shook his head. No, no, Jin Xianzhang came to join me after he murdered someone and set fire to him. How could I manage his past affairs? Yushan left in dismay, but the Kwantung Army kept sending telegrams to remind him, which made him unable to sleep well, so he had to go to Fu Zuoyi again. I have to do a job. If it’s really not possible, you can get me some bones of cows and horses. Seeing his pity, Fu Zuoyi nodded "En Zhun": This is what you said, so I'll just get you some bones! After Yushan picked up a bunch of messy bones, he packed them in small boxes and shipped them back to China for calculation. Facing Fu Zuoyi, a formidable opponent, Yushan, who was once arrogant for a while, dared to play the prestige of a Japanese spy again. Since then, he has been hiding at home all day, not even daring to go out the door. The Suiyuan Anti-Japanese War made the people very excited. After the defeat of the Great Wall, facing the crazy advance of Japan, people had to give in and endure again and again, but how long they had to endure, no one could bear it anymore. Suddenly one day, a prairie hero, a lonely master, appeared in everyone's field of vision. He looked up to the world, drew his bow and shot the eagles. Finally shot! The long-term oppression of the whole country by the Japanese has been greatly vented. The situation is like today's audience, seeing Huo Yuanjia, Chen Zhen, and Ye Wen jumping into the martial arts arena in the movie theater, beating those crazy Japanese warriors and others. their lackeys. The level of support for the Suiyuan Anti-Japanese War from all walks of life is unprecedented, and the amount of donations from the people is so large that it can even help the Sui Army re-establish an automobile corps. Fu Zuoyi himself was amazed by this situation.In the statement issued afterwards, he repeatedly stated that he saw the hearts of the people in the whole country, and as long as these people's hearts don't die, the country will be able to revive and the nation will be able to save itself! The Suiyuan War of Resistance dealt a heavy blow to Japan's "inner Mongolia work".The loss of Bailing Temple and Damiaozi is equivalent to pulling out a nail that the Kwantung Army had planted in Suibei, and its invasion line extending westward was cut off in the middle. When Huang Yu was in charge of North China, he was very optimistic about Fu Zuoyi, thinking that among the northern provinces, Suiyuan was the province that was most able to survive the hardships. Looking at the history of the Suiyuan Anti-Japanese War today, I believe it!
