Chapter 96 Attack on Chifeng

In Longhua County, before dawn, Guo Danian, Guo Hu and others ran towards Xu Guoren one after another, laughing almost from ear to ear and said: "Commander, we can make a fortune this time, there are several brothels, taverns, and big smoke houses opened by Tang Yulin in Longhua City!" In addition, a large amount of money, food, and some weapons and ammunition were also hoarded in the military camp outside the city! ”

"Yes! That's great, it's all confiscated for military funding! Xu Guoren lit a cigarette and waved his hand very happily. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Political Commissar Chen has already begun confiscating with his brothers!" Guo Hu said with a smile: "I see that the political commissar is very happy to do this matter!" ”

"Anyway, these are the people's fat and people's ointment that Tang Yulin scavenged, and they don't copy it. By the way, remind Elder Chen, before leaving, don't forget to distribute the food that you can't take away to the poor people in Longhua City, so as to win the hearts of the people. Xu Guoren said.

"Okay, I'll go tell the commissar." Guo Hu immediately rushed to leave.

Xu Guoren calculated the time, it was already the end of August, and more than half a month had passed since Shi Yousan rebelled, because the day he rebelled was more than a month later than in history.

Therefore, it is now less than 20 days since the outbreak of the 918 Incident.

And he is still at least thousands of miles away from Shenyang, so he must speed up his travel.

With Xu Guoren's current identity, it is impossible to swagger into Shenyang to prevent this incident from happening. And Xu Guoren didn't plan to stop it, because only when the Japanese army invaded China and the entire Northeast became chaotic, he would have the opportunity to take root and gain a foothold in the Northeast.

Xu Guoren's goal and plan was to wait for the September 18 Incident to begin to retreat with the order of non-resistance, and the Japanese Kwantung Army would raise the banner of resistance against Japan in the Northeast before it occupied the entire Northeast.

When the time comes, they will be able to stand on the commanding heights of national righteousness, and they are far away in the northeast, and Jiang Guangtou and Zhang Xiaoliu will be beyond the reach of the whip if they want to encircle and suppress themselves.

Judging from the emergence of so many Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteers in history, at that time, Xu Guoren will have such a strong force as the backing.

After dawn, Tang Yulin's industry and barracks warehouse in Longhua were all taken by the independent division.

The independent division replenished the troops' weapons, equipment, and ammunition, and took away all the gold, silver, jewelry, and oceans, and distributed all the food to the local people on the spot, except for what the troops needed, and won the praise of the people.

They then quickly evacuated Longhua and continued their march north.

In order to prevent accidents, Xu Guoren ordered the reconnaissance company to expand the warning area to the surrounding 100 miles.

As soon as the troops marched to Paddock County, they received news that an enemy army was coming from the northeast, less than a hundred miles from the independent division.

"Judging from the intelligence, this enemy army should be the enemy's 108th Brigade originally stationed in Lingyuan, presumably it was ordered by Tang Yulin to change its route to intercept us!" Chen Zhiyuan analyzed.

"Old Chen, how many defenders are there in Chifeng?" Xu Guoren asked.

"According to the information we have, the 17th Independent Cavalry Brigade of the Northeast Frontier Army is stationed in Chifeng, with a strength of about 2,500 to 3,000 people." Chen Zhiyuan replied: "However, this brigade is under the direct jurisdiction of Major Marshal Zhang of the Northeast Army, not Tang Yulin's troops. ”

"Then fight Chifeng and eat this cavalry brigade, otherwise, I'm worried that Tang Yulin will unite this cavalry brigade and intercept us." Xu Guoren gritted his teeth and said: "Instead of that, it is better to take the initiative to attack, as long as we capture Chifeng, it will completely open up our road to the north, otherwise we will have to escape far away and re-enter Chahar." ”

After the battle of Zhangjiakou, Xu Guoren understood Fu Zuoyi's old scheming, so he would rather fight with the Northeast Army in Rehe than go to Chahar to fight Fu Zuoyi again.

"However, now that Tang Yulin's pursuing force is less than a hundred miles away, do we need to leave a force to block the attack? Otherwise, if we can't capture Chifeng in time, and Tang Yulin's department catches up again, it will be troublesome! Chen Zhiyuan said with some worry.

Xu Guoren vetoed on the spot: "There is no need to block the attack, now Tang Yulin's headquarters is still at least five hours away from us, as long as we speed up the march and strive to expand the distance to more than eight hours."

With the combat effectiveness of our independent division, we are still confident that we can take Chifeng within eight hours! ”

"Well, your analysis is reasonable, since this is the case, then I will mobilize the comrades as much as possible, speed up, and buy more time." Chen Zhiyuan was also full of confidence: "How can our revolutionary team run faster than Tang Yulin's double-gun miscellaneous troops!" ”

Subsequently, Xu Guoren ordered the troops to give up some food and other burdens in order to reduce the burden of the officers and soldiers as much as possible, and personally led them to march to Chifeng at full speed to start a rapid march.

Chen Zhiyuan was also on the way, mobilizing the party members and cadres he had developed, taking the lead and setting an example, and all the troops rushed to march.

Soon, the enemy's pursuing troops were far away, and Tang Yulin's troops had just arrived in Longhua, and Xu Guoren rushed to Chifeng with his troops.

From Chifeng to Longhua, there are more than 400 miles away, and the traffic conditions in this era are not as good as in the 21st century, and the march is basically on foot, according to the march of 30 miles in an hour, the distance between the two sides must be more than 10 hours.

And Tang Yulin's department is known as a two-gun unit, smoking a lot of cigarettes, and it is okay to oppress the good. Allowing them to maintain such a high-intensity marching speed for a long time is tantamount to a fool's dream.

As for the cavalry regiment under Tang Yulin, there are only about 1,000 people, and I am afraid that they will not dare to go deep alone.

Therefore, with a pair of iron feet, Xu Guoren and the soldiers of the independent division ran out of a fighter plane to attack Chifeng, and the time gained was a lot more than before.

From Pingyang, to Baoding, and then to Zhangjiakou, along the way, Xu Guoren, Chen Zhiyuan and the soldiers shared weal and woe, loved the soldiers like sons, and continued to open warehouses and release grain along the way to relieve the poor people.

They are all poor independent division officers and soldiers, and they have long been determined to follow the Communist Party revolution to the end, and they are even more supportive of Xu Guoren, the division commander.

It can be said that the current independent division has become a revolutionary contingent of faith.

Chen Zhiyuan's political work has also been done very well, and the soldiers have never felt the love and affection of officers from higher authorities before, and the officers and soldiers are equal and like brothers, and these seemingly insignificant little things have continuously improved the cohesion and combat effectiveness of this unit as a whole.

This is also the confidence of Xu Guoren to dare to attack Chifeng when there are chasing soldiers behind.

After arriving near Chifeng, Xu Guoren led his troops to secretly lurk in a forest, resting and eating on the spot to replenish his physical strength and energy.

Half an hour later, they quickly set up a battle, surrounded Chifeng City, and launched a fierce attack from the south gate of Chifeng with the artillery battalion and the main force regiment as the main attacking force!
