383 Go to war
The first thing to do is, of course, pre-war intelligence reconnaissance, including the movements of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Army in Fenshui County, the number of outlying strongholds and artillery towers of the Japanese army near the Beitongpu Railway, and even the geographical terrain and the situation of the people near the target section of the Beitongpu Railway.
On the eve of this storm, everyone was waiting, waiting for a signal, a fuse.
Han Feng is not afraid to be this fuse, since what should come will always happen, even if it is because of himself, what does it matter?
The plan to destroy several sections of the Zhengtai Railway should have been put on the agenda! Then let yourself light another fire on your side, attract all the attention of the Japanese army, and make as much trouble as possible.
On the 25th, the movements of Han Feng and the other four regiments began two days earlier than the actions of the main force of the entire Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountain.
After Kong Jie quietly arrived at the target section of the northern section of the Tongpu Railway with the main force of the New Second Regiment, the main force of more than 3,000 people suddenly launched a fierce sneak attack on the Japanese strongholds on both sides of the Tongpu Railway.
As a battle-hardened general, Kong Jie is not ambiguous when he fights, and it is just a small stronghold of the Japanese army, and there are only ten to a hundred Japanese puppet troops in each stronghold, and now there are some broad-minded Kong Er stunned to adopt a simple and rough way of fighting, plus the two mortars that Han Feng gave to the new second regiment after breaking through Wucheng County, and directly suppressed it with machine guns after heavy artillery bombardment, and then carried out an infantry charge to forcibly pull out the Japanese stronghold.
After the commotion on Kong Jie's side started, Li Yunlong and the other three regiments, who had been waiting for news from Kong Jie's side, had already ambushed at the ambush site, quietly waiting for the appearance of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Army.
So a series of chemical reactions appeared, Kong Jie's new 2nd Regiment wanted to destroy the northern section of the Tongpu Railway, and the Japanese army of course could not stand idly by, and ordered the 21st Brigade to be the closest to quickly support.
Who knew that the 21st Brigade had just walked halfway down the road, and was ambushed by Han Feng and other three regiments, and the commander of the First Army stationed in Jin, who was far away in the headquarters, Yoshio Shinozuka, analyzed the situation, and only then ordered several Japanese troops near Fenshui County to support the 21st Brigade at the same time to the ambushed site, and the whole of North China suddenly became inexplicably in turmoil, and the 1st, 2nd, and 9th divisions of the Jinchaji Military Region of the Eighth Route Army and the Taihang Mountain Base Area, together with the 1st, 2nd, and 0th divisions further away, suddenly emerged a large number of troops, Their goal was to go straight to the Zhengtai Railway, the main pillar of the Japanese army's cage policy, and the local armed forces that cooperated with the operation were endless, even far beyond the estimate of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.
Yoshio Shinozuka panicked now, his attention was still on Han Feng's new third group! How could he have expected that there would be such a big change suddenly, this is also a joke, he is a dignified commander of the First Army, under the jurisdiction of the entire Sanjin Japanese army, if you don't study your strategic layout well, you can actually get on the same page with Han Feng, the commander of a small new third regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
First the Gujing Brigade, followed by the Zhudao Wing, and now even the 21st Brigade and the troops around Fenshui County are used, what is the result, disrupting the overall strategic layout, and letting himself fall into passivity Not to mention, the commander of the new third regiment, Han Feng, is still alive, I heard that at this time he is uniting several main regiments to ambush his 21st Brigade!
Anger turned into anger, Yoshio Shinozuka still had to take into account the overall situation, and all the troops originally sent to support the 21st Brigade were withdrawn and thrown into supporting the Zhengtai Railway Campaign, as for Han Feng and other four main regiments, Yoshio Shinozuka sent a telegram to the brigade commander of the 21st Brigade:
It can be defeated, and it is important to ensure the safety of the Beitongpu Railway.
Yoshio Shinozuka believes in the combat effectiveness of the 21st Brigade, and if a brigade can't even take the four main regiments of the Dirt Eighth Road, it's okay to defeat it, right?
At the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army was rampant all the way, and a wing could easily press the two divisions of the Guo Army, and the equipment of these Tuba Road was far inferior to that of the Guo Army.
Delusional and no longer worried, Yoshio Shinozuka began to focus on the entire North China defense of the Zhengtai Railway.
Of course, the facts are not different from what Yoshio Shinozuka expected, if from a conventional point of view, just as Han Feng and other three regiments are in ambush warfare, although the Japanese 21st Brigade lost some of its men and horses because of the sudden raid, the counterattack was quickly constructed, and the positional battle began, even if Han Feng and other three main regiments used nearly 10,000 troops this time, the strength ratio was twice that of the Japanese 21st Brigade, and under the irreversible huge equipment deficit, the 21st Brigade still pressed three of the corners of the four corners of the Northwest Iron of Jin.
The two sides fell into a bitter battle, and Han Feng's side suffered a lot of losses, and in a short period of time, under the powerful artillery fire of the 21st Brigade, the casualties were nearly 2,000, which was four times more than that of the 21st Brigade.
Ding Wei, who was commanding the battle in the rear, scolded angrily: "It's not a way to go on like this, let alone gnaw a piece of meat from others, we're afraid that we will lose it." ”
Li Yunlong said: "This 21st brigade is really a hard bone, Lao Tzu will bring two more battalions and attack from the flank." ”
Han Feng said: "Old regiment commander, the devil's firepower is too fierce, their platoon guns and grenadiers can cover almost all the surrounding fields of vision in all directions without dead ends, the two battalions of men and horses are too big targets, we haven't done this kind of thing before, and we were all repelled by the devil's artillery fire."
If you want me to see a sneak attack, it's okay, but the target has to be small. ”
Li Yunlong and Han Feng looked at each other, and the two of them nodded with a tacit understanding.
Ding Wei is not a fool, he can see the thoughts of the two regiment commanders at a glance, he hurriedly said: "Old Han, I know that you have a commando team under your command that is very powerful, even Lao Li is envious, and he has also made a special combat team in the independent regiment these days, but this is too risky, you two are regiment commanders, you should command the battle in the rear, instead of taking the commando team to engage in a sneak attack." ”
"This is called a decapitation operation, you kid is too uneducated." Li Yunlong looked at Ding Wei and scolded, "Who said that Lao Tzu must stay in the rear?" The devil's artillery fire is too fierce, and he has been pressing us to fight, and Lao Tzu's heart is aggrieved! In this beheading operation, Lao Tzu must participate, and Lao Tzu is still the captain of the special combat team! ”
"You, Political Commissar Zhao, do you know your decision?"
"Lao Zhao, Lao Zhao was broken up by Lao Tzu, Lao Ding, I know you are itching in your heart, but the three of us have to leave one, and you don't have a decent commando and special combat team under your hands, so you honestly stay in the rear to watch the show, and when Lao Tzu raises the head of the Japanese major general in front of you, you will know how powerful Lao Tzu is."
Ding Wei understands Li Yunlong's temperament, once this guy makes up his mind, he doesn't want to pull ten cows back, he had to tell Han Feng: "Old Han, Lao Li, this kid is too fierce, you go with him, but you must pay attention to safety." ”
Li Yunlong said: "Lao Ding, how can you grind and chirp like a mother-in-law, Lao Tzu has been here for so many years, and there is not even an eye-catching one on his body, you kid will look at it, even the Lord of Yama is reluctant to accept Lao Tzu!" ”
Han Feng said with a smile: "Don't worry, Lao Ding, I will take care of the old regiment leader, after we leave, you still have to contain the devil in the front, and it is best to organize a few charges, I have already explained to the monk, and the sharp knife company of my new third regiment is willing to be the vanguard."
In addition, two battalions were used from the flank of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Army to feign a sneak attack to distract the devils.
My commando team and the special combat team of the old regiment commander are both small combat units, and they still have a great chance of taking advantage of the chaos to get to the headquarters of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Army.
Kill the headquarters of the 21st Brigade, and we will have a chance to gnaw a few pieces of meat from these little devils. ”
Ding Wei looked at Han Feng's resolute gaze, and sighed in his heart, which finally turned into encouragement, "Go ahead, my new group is gone, and I must have done enough cover for you." ”
"Old Leader, let's go!"
"Good!"
Looking at the backs of Han Feng and Li Yunlong gradually moving away, Ding Wei's eyes also flashed with determination, he turned around and ordered: "The first and second battalions of the new regiment immediately feigned to attack the enemy from the flank, and the others immediately organized and prepared to charge, this time without Lao Tzu's order, even if the whole regiment was wiped out, and Lao Tzu was not allowed to take a step back." ”
"Yes!"
A huge storm is coming......
