Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Chief of Staff of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Outer Mongolian Border Guards of the ** Division, Colonel Hexi Getu, is a very thoughtful and cautious person. Regarding the combat plan put forward by the brigade commander Tong Batu, although he believed from the bottom of his heart that it was impeccable and successful.  The possibility is extremely high, using the high speed of the cavalry to move away in one strike without entanglement. Judging from this plan, brigade commander Tong Batu's mind is clear and not impulsive.  <-¡·

    However, as the brigade chief of staff, he must be calmer than the brigade commander. He must estimate the dangers the troops will face in the event of an eventuality. Moreover, the division commander's order is that the second brigade will withdraw to Cullen as its ultimate goal, and  There was no intention of arranging combat missions. From this perspective, the brigade commander was disobeying the division commander's orders.

    Therefore, just after Hasbagan, the commander of the first regiment, finished speaking, and before the other two regiment commanders had a chance to add fuel to the flames, He Xigetu rushed to say: "Brigadier Commander, I do not agree to fight this battle!"

    Several people, including Tong Batu, were all stunned at the same time, especially Tong Batu. He never thought that his old friend would have objections, so Tong Batu asked angrily: "Staff  Chief, why do you object? Tell me the truth!"

    He Xigetu expressed his thoughts without reservation. Finally, he said: "Brigadier Commander, I know your battle plan, and I am absolutely sure of its success. However, I must consider that after the only unexpected situation, the troops  I also know that it is impossible to persuade you to give up your determination to fight this battle. Therefore, I propose that the battle plan be reported to the division commander and wait for the division commander's approval before deciding on our actions. "  Great dominate

    Tong Batu¡¯s expression softened.  He knew that his old friend was speaking with caution and caution. The battlefield was changing rapidly and anything could happen. However, it was absolutely impossible for him to give up on the battle he was talking about.

    Tong Batu said: "Old man, I understand your thoughts, but I can't listen to your dissuasion. More than four hundred brothers are calling me on the grassland in front. The opportunity is rare and fleeting. No need to report it to  Division Commander, this does not conflict with our retreat plan. Moreover, I do not plan to invest the entire brigade."

    "The specific combat plan is as follows. The Soviet army's camps in the Habdor area are divided into six places. They are relatively scattered and are more conducive to our respective raids. My plan is to mobilize the twelve most elite companies from the entire brigade.  Each two companies was responsible for assaulting a Soviet camp. All the horses' hooves were wrapped in cotton. At two o'clock in the morning, when the Soviet soldiers were the sleepiest and least alert, they quietly approached the Soviet camp.  Then launch a surprise attack."

    "The entire battle was strictly controlled to end within twenty minutes. After a charge, they retreated in different directions and chased the troops. Regardless of the outcome of the battle, they quickly left the battlefield. The main force of the brigade set off at one o'clock in the morning and continued to retreat in the direction of Cullen.  , No matter what happens to Habdol, we must not turn back to rescue him. This is an order. Do you have any other opinions? "

    Everyone, including Hexi Getu, shook their heads. They all felt the brigade commander's unshakable determination. Tong Batu said to Hexi Getu: "Old man, the army will be left to you. If I can't come back, the first  The Second Brigade cannot be cut off, let alone let the division commander cancel our designation. It all depends on you! After the meeting, each regiment commander will select his troops immediately after returning, and then rest and wait for the signal from the reconnaissance company! "

    Listening to Tong Batu's decisive words, He Xigetu's nose felt sore. He could feel that the old man he had been with for many years had already embraced the belief that he would die. In the dark night, two pairs of big Mongolian men's hands held each other tightly.  Together, we felt each other's inner excitement.

    At 12:30 at midnight, twelve companies of cavalry lined up neatly and silently in several horizontal lines. The men and horses stood quietly in awe, without even a neigh of the horses. In the eyes of more than a thousand Mongolian men,  Shooting out a fiery light, he stared intently at the brigade commander in front of him, who was not tall but powerful. His silent aura was rising, and the troops were high in fighting spirit.

    Tong Batu rode his horse and walked slowly in front of the queue. He communicated silently with all the soldiers participating in the battle with his eyes. After standing upright for a moment, Tong Batu roared, "Let's go!" On the horse, he and He Xigetu  After a tight hug, a reinforced regiment of cavalry, with cotton hooves wrapped in cotton, quietly disappeared into the boundless night.

    He Xigetu watched Tong Batu lead more than a thousand soldiers and disappear into the night. He was very conflicted in his heart. According to normal procedures, the army's combat plan should be reported to the division commander Tang Qiuli, but in case the division commander did not  Approval, what would the brigade commander think? The emotions accumulated in his heart could not be vented, and in his opinion, this was a must-win battle.

    ¡°Perhaps, the gap between myself and the brigade commander will arise from this. This is what I least want to see. For more than ten years, all my hard work and life have failed.??, they are all integrated into this army. Going to other armies, even becoming a brigade commander, is definitely not what they want.

    Then accompany the brigade commander and take a risk, or in other words, be arrogant. In fact, in his heart, he doesn't want to fight this battle. In an instant, Hexi Getu's entanglement dissipated a lot, and he was concerned about the people around him.  The staff officer said: "Convey the order. Thirty minutes later, the troops will set off, maintain absolute silence, and continue to withdraw to the direction of Kulun!" After giving the order, Hexi Getu suddenly had a thought: "Is this the last time with the brigade commander?  respectively?"

    As the night grew darker, the evening wind outside the Great Wall in September blew strongly, bringing with it a biting chill. Tong Batu led twelve companies of cavalry and stopped two kilometers away from the Habdol Soviet camp.  The leaders all gathered around Tong Batu. After he whispered a few instructions, the team dispersed, divided into several groups, headed in different directions, and disappeared silently into the night.

    The group led by Tong Batu himself had the largest number of troops. In addition to the two cavalry companies, the brigade reconnaissance company and the guard company were also added. A total of four companies were used to raid the headquarters of the Soviet armored brigade.  The location was also the place where the Soviet army camped with the largest number of troops.

    The howling night wind covered up the slightest movement of the troops. Tong Batu dismounted and walked towards a certain hill. The commander of the brigade's reconnaissance company, Captain Baiyin Baoligao, seemed to suddenly flash out from the dark night and appeared in front of the mountain.  In front of Tong Batu, he whispered: "Brigadier Commander, everything is going well. The Soviet army did not notice any movement. I divided the troops into six groups to monitor the Soviet troops respectively and guide the direction of the assault troops. It is still early, you  Go down and rest for a while, I¡¯ll just keep an eye on it!¡±

    Tong Batu looked at the luminous watch. It was just one o'clock in the middle of the night, and there was still an hour before launching the attack. He smiled silently and said to Baiyin Baoligao: "Nonsense, can I sleep? Let's go, follow  I'll go and keep an eye on Lao Maozi!"

    As time passed, the Soviet camp had quieted down. The well-fed and drunk Soviet soldiers were lying around the bonfire. It was originally burning brightly and could illuminate the surrounding area more than ten meters away. At this time, it was almost burned out.  The remaining dark red coals quickly lost their brightness under the strong night wind. All the armored vehicles and trucks turned into clusters of black shadows, standing stiffly in the night.

    Tong Batu's heart suddenly moved, and he whispered to Baiyin Baoligao who was lying next to him: "Send five soldiers immediately and stop the other five assault troops. After the battle starts, don't use sabers, and prepare more grenades, submachine guns and  The light machine gun, as the first wave of strike fire, killed Soviet soldiers and bombed armored vehicles at the same time, telling their commander that sabers are not as good as grenades and bullets to kill the enemy!"

    The time is gradually approaching two o'clock in the morning. This is the time when people sleep the deepest in a day. Only dots of dark red can be seen from the bonfires in the Soviet camp. The Soviet vigilance sentries have also stopped moving aimlessly.  Wandering, sitting on the cold grass, with their heads down and taking a nap, the Soviet troops of an armored brigade were like unsuspecting tigers that had relaxed all their vigilance, completely unaware that there were more than a thousand steppe wolves lurking around them.  .

    At exactly two o'clock in the morning on September 16th, Tong Batu flew on his horse, pulled out the loud saber with a "swish" sound, first raised the saber to the level of his eyebrows, and then, his right arm suddenly jumped up, the blade of the saber flashed a cold light, and the tip pointed at  There was no word from the front, but the cavalry knew that the brigade commander had given the order to charge.  Great dominate

    There was no scene of thousands of horses galloping and cavalry charging as imagined. Four cavalry companies and hundreds of men and horses were like a giant boulder moving in the dark, slowly pressing towards the Soviet camp. The top of the boulder.  In front were brigade commander Tong Batu and several of his personal guards.

    The war horse first trotted slowly, its hooves wrapped in cotton cloth stepping on the thick grass, quietly, and then came closer. A Soviet sentry, wrapped in a coat, sat on the grass, kowtowing constantly, with sleepy eyes.  The saber in Tong Batu's hand suddenly slashed down, and a cold light flashed through. The Soviet sentry had no time to scream, and his head rolled to the side. The remaining Soviet sentries were all killed by the soldiers in the same way.  .

    ??

    The strong smell of blood was quickly diluted by the night wind and floated into the noses of the soldiers, stimulating their blood to boil. Tong Batu sheathed his knife, opened the safety of his submachine gun, and shouted: "Kill!"

    Following Tong Batu¡¯s order, the cavalrymen loosened their reins and kicked their heels hard&#x5730; With a knock on the horse's belly, the war horse, which is in a state of explosion at any time, suddenly pops out like a rounded bow. The boulder quickly changes its formation and turns into a huge arrow, carrying a fierce murderous aura, curling up for a while.  The strong wind shot straight towards the Soviet camp.

    In the quiet night, the galloping war horses, with their hooves wrapped in cotton, stepped on the grass. There was no momentum like a drum, only a dull muffled sound. The distance was less than a thousand meters. For the cavalry charging at high speed.  , it¡¯s just a blink of an eye.
