At 5:50 a.m. on March 3, the headquarters of the 41st Army withdrew to Bajia Village, ten miles west of Chifeng City, where Commander Sun held a temporary combat meeting. At this time, the 119th Brigade retreated from the West Gate to the west, leaving one to guard the line from the Little Duck River to the Bajia River to prevent the devils from going back on their word. When Commander Sun saw that all the brigade commanders, regiment commanders, and commanders directly under him had arrived, he said to everyone with tears in his eyes: "Subordinates, brothers, I, Sun someone, am here for the hatred of the country and the family. To this day, I am unwilling to defeat the devil, but so many brothers have died, and I have to withdraw the army! Thinking about the brothers who will be buried here forever, it is in response to what Advisor Li just said: Die before leaving the school......

He was a little speechless, staring at the eight families on the map, and after a while, he continued: "I am ashamed of the Chifeng fathers, ashamed of the soldiers who came with me, and even more sorry for the brothers who are buried here...... In the past few days, our army has been attacking for a long distance, hating the same enemy, defeating the enemy with blood, inflicting great casualties on the Oriental devils, and seizing a batch of Japanese weapons and ammunition. Until now, the 117 Brigade, the Independent Regiment and the Reconnaissance Battalion have used Japanese weapons in their hands. All units of our 41st Army bravely killed the enemy, and the number of soldiers who sacrificed their lives in blood amounted to 10,000, and the regiment commander contributed three ......" He couldn't speak anymore with tears in his eyes, and his teeth rattled......

Deputy Army Commander Cha saw that Commander Sun's mood was too heavy, and he almost choked up, and he was speechless for a while. He stood up, looked at the generals and said: "All the soldiers have fought bloody battles with the Japanese devils, and too many people are either dead or injured. Because the Japanese army had been planning for a long time and came prepared. Moreover, the strength of the Japanese army is indeed superior to ours, so I will not say more here. The current battle situation around Chifeng City is that the Japanese troops on the northern front, under the unified command of the Tongliao Command, deliberately approached Zhangjiakou and Duolun after occupying Chifeng, and then attacked and occupied Dushikou to achieve the final occupation of the first line of the Great Wall. ”

Commander Sun's mood stabilized a little, listening to Deputy Commander Cha's speech, thinking about the problem there, and seemed to be making a major decision. He waved his hand and said, "You say, you say ......" Deputy Army Commander Cha continued: "The Japanese army on the southern front, the Eighth Division of Xiyiyi is in full swing, and it will go straight from Suizhong to Pingquan to Chengde, the capital of Rehe Province, and then it will seize Gubeikou; After the 14th Mixed Brigade and other Japanese troops led by Hattori Hyojiro, another unit of the Japanese army on the southern front, captured the coastal town of Shanhaiguan on January 1, and then increased his troops with the intention of seizing other passes of the Great Wall. ”

He continued: "The Northeast Army ran and surrendered, which was despised by the countrymen, of course, some of them joined our troops, and another part of the people who had the heart of serving the country withdrew to Chahar. Although this is the case, we are not fighting alone in the full sense of the word, and there are still many people who are fighting with us in the bloody field, such as the 51st Army and the 67th Army of the Northeast Army, the 29th Army and the 32nd Army of the Northwest Army, some of which are still fighting bloody battles with devils, and some are reinforcing the mouths of the Great Wall. On the ancient Great Wall, Lengkou, Dongjiakou, Yiyuankou, Xifengkou, Luowenyukou and Gubeikou will be more unusual bloody battles. This does not include the Communist Party-led Anti-Japanese Federation and the people's spontaneous volunteers, who are all fighting devils out of nowhere. ”

In fact, all the units of the 41st Army were inseparable from the 4th Brigade of the Motegi Cavalry, and no one was willing to withdraw. Everyone is bent on fighting, I will kill you one by one when I am alive, and I will do it with you when I die and become a ghost. The last time, I also went to the side of your Motegi couch to learn how to cry ghosts, crying to death that you raised a son of a bitch. I don't believe it, you Motegi are not afraid of ghosts crying?

After the explanations of the two commanders, the stubborn hearts of the commanders changed slightly. At this time, everyone turned their eyes to Director Han, he smiled shyly, and said: "Just now Deputy Commander Cha talked about the offensive situation and main attack direction of the Japanese army on the northern front and the Japanese army on the southern front, and the remaining middle road was not mentioned, this middle road is dominated by the fourth brigade of the Motegi cavalry, and he is also divided into three parts, mainly the Motegi Division, followed by the 73rd Wing of the Second Division of Sakamoto Masaemon, and then there is the Eight Immortals Rapid Reaction Force of Koiso Kuniaki, which is still entangled in Harapudu by two battalions of our 119th Brigade at this time. Motegi is our old enemy, and there will definitely be many battles to fight in the future. Our 41st Army was forced to retreat west as a last resort in order to save Chifeng City from artillery fire. This retreat is a strategic shift......"

As soon as he stopped, Adviser Li said: "At present, the Japanese army has occupied the northeast and attacked Rehe, and the international situation, especially the United Kingdom, the United States and France, does not agree with the puppet regime of Manchukuo that they manipulated. Although the League of Nations, headed by the United States, Britain, France, and other countries, frequently exerted pressure on Japan, Britain, France, and the United States were still most concerned about their own vested interests, and their efforts did not have much effect on Japan, which was bent on expansion. In the domestic situation, except for the right wing of the Kuomintang, all the other factions of the Nanjing government advocated resistance against Japan, but they lacked a unified leadership ......"

Statue Sun finally made an important decision and said: "Right now, the situation on the Rehe battlefield is like this, I won't say more. The westward withdrawal of our 41st Army was a strategic shift. Although we have sacrificed so many brothers, we have gathered no less than 30,000 troops in the northeast. Our strength is still there, let's go to Chahar to fight the devil again. I decided that the 117th Brigade would wait and see the devils for three days behind this hall, and then retreat after the main force withdrew to the Siheyong line of the paddock. It is estimated that the old devil Motegi will not give up, and he will definitely chase after him to seek revenge, if this is the case, Brigade Commander Ding will be here for three days......"

Brigade Commander Ding, who was sitting at the table, stood up and looked back at his several regiment commanders, several people met their eyes, and there was an implicit tacit understanding swimming, and then several people saluted at the same time and said, "Yes." Commander Sun turned his head to Chief of Staff Wang and said, "Draw personnel from each brigade to supplement their brigade, and give them as many bullets as possible......

Brigade Commander Ding and several regiment commanders were ordered to leave, the 235th Regiment was ordered to go to Xiaoyahe to replace the 119th Brigade blocking force, and the other two regiments and directly subordinate units were ordered to enter the designated blocking positions in turn. The reconnaissance battalion of the military headquarters sent personnel to the Hala crossing to convey the order, and Commander Sun asked the two battalions to withdraw from the battle at all costs and go to the south bank of the Laoha River to assemble and plan for construction. But the few people sent did not come back, and Battalion Commander Chen and Battalion Commander Wei were determined to fight guerrillas there, and they were all working with devils wherever they went.

Motegi Mae Zhizhu drove the troops into the city, he was also the second into Chifeng, it was not easy to get, and he wanted to organize a ceremony to enter the city, the first is to celebrate, and the second is to give the residents of the city a dismount, so that they can all be obedient people. Then I showed Sakamoto Masaemon that I Motegi finally entered the castle. Motegi invited Commander Okamura Ninji and Chief of Staff Koiso Kuniaki to attend. Okamura Ninji came, but Koiso Kuniaki couldn't come, which made Okamura Ninji and Motegi Mae Tsuki. In the end, Motegi Maenozuki had to rush a brigade of the 13th Wing, which had already entered the city, to Harapudu. Koiso Kuniaki was able to bring a small number of entourages to Chifeng City and participate in the entrance ceremony.

Although Koiso Kuniaki participated in the entrance ceremony, the troops he led were still trapped there, and he was very embarrassed compared to Motegi Mae Tsuki, who had already captured Chifeng Castle. Motegi didn't think about it as he walked through the procession into the castle while contemplating Harapudu's defenders with Aokuma. He believes that if the defenders there go after the 41st Military Regulation, it is fine, but if they do not, it means that there are communists or red elements among them. He was sad at the thought of the red elements, and ordered the green bone to start investigating.

In addition, he also asked Aokuma Yushaozo to investigate the whereabouts of Consul Oshima and others and the two assassination squads. The young man of the green bones stood up and saluted, shouting "Hai" and leaving.

While the ceremony was still underway, explosions were heard in the direction of Hongshanzui, and Motegi also received a phone call saying that an unknown group of people had set fire to the carts of the 19th Wing's transport team by setting fire to hay, and all three truckloads of munitions exploded.

Commander Sun and the military headquarters, who had just disbanded the meeting, also received news that it was the Rehe Special Operations Brigade that did it. Commander Sun was so anxious that his little face was sallow, and he couldn't get through the phone. He said: "I'm sorry Lao Chu, it seems like I'm lying to him......"
