Chapter 9: The Death of Pingxingguan! (Ask for subscription)
Daisuke Kotani shook his head and said, "Commander Okabe has just flown to Taiyuan to serve as the commander of our First Army for less than a week, and I got the news from a fellow countryman in the North China Front Army Headquarters that His Majesty the Emperor has been very angry that the new regiment has continuously annihilated many elites of the empire, and has ambushed four imperial princes. A few days ago, His Majesty the Emperor again sent a direct telegram to the North China Front Command requesting that an attack on the new regiment be launched as soon as possible. ”。
"I see!" Ezaki Rihisa suddenly realized: "Then Commander Okabe has no choice but to order the 6th Division to be dispatched as soon as possible." ”。
Daisuke Kotani nodded, and then said, "Now how much has the vanguard of the 6th Division advanced to Pingxing Pass?" ”。
"Your Excellency Shaozuo, according to the radio contact we have just made with the 6th Division, it should be about twenty minutes before the vanguard of the 6th Division will arrive at Pingxingguan. There was also His Excellency Shaozo, the 6th Division radioed to tell us that there were a large number of guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army constantly harassing along the way, and the 6th Division's march had slowed down. However, it is estimated that it will soon arrive at my level pass! ”。
"Yo Si! Tell the soldiers to get ready to meet the Imperial warriors of the 6th Division. This 6th Division is one of the two most capable divisions in the Empire, and its combat effectiveness is strong! Big temper too! Be careful, serve well. ”
Kotani Daisuke suddenly said to Ezaki Rihisa with a little sourness, the 6th Division commanded by Gu Shoufu originally attacked the city from Jinling Zhonghua Gate, and the honor was very great, so naturally the arrogance of the 6th Division was also unusual.
And Daisuke Kotani naturally understood that when Yoshio Shinozuka commanded 20,000 Japanese troops to attack the base of the new regiment in Hengshan, because of his dereliction of duty, most of the grain, grass and ammunition needed by the 20,000 Japanese troops stored in the Heixing Pass were blown up.
Although because he was related to the commander of the North China Front, Tada Jun, he retained his position as captain with some dredging. Dai Xin and meritorious service continued to garrison Pingxingguan, maintaining the transportation supply in Dai County, Pingxingguan Zhiwei County, and Xuanhua area.
However, for the possible contempt and difficulty of Gu Shoufu, Daisuke Kotani was still mentally prepared.
And Ezaki Rihisa was naturally heavy and stood on his feet and said: "Hayi, please rest assured, Your Excellency Shaozuo, the soldiers have been ordered to prepare." ”。
Daisuke Kotani nodded, standing on the head of the flat-shaped Kansai Seki Castle and looking at the white scenery on the western highway, with a solemn face.
Just when the main force of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army led by Gu Shoufu was preparing to enter Pingxing Pass, at this time, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie and others had already arranged for all troops to make preparations for the ambush in the ambush position, and waited for Gu Shoufu to lead his troops to send them to death.
On the ancient road of Qiaogou Canyon east of Pingxingguan, a well-repaired highway can go straight to Lingqiu County, Guangling and Wei County after exiting from the east of Pingxingguan. The Qiaogou Canyon Ancient Road is lined with mountains on both sides, under the cover of trees, and ambush positions are set up on the mountains on both sides to ambush the enemy troops walking on the ancient road of the valley condescendingly, which is twice the result with half the effort.
"Click!"
Hurried footsteps came from the side of the field headquarters, and I saw a communications soldier coming and reporting to Li Yunlonglizheng: "Report to the regiment commander, the Fanzhi County guerrillas who attacked the Japanese 6th Division along the road west of Pingxingguan have sent an urgent telegram, and the main force of the Japanese 6th Division will enter Pingxingguan in nearly 20 minutes. The Japanese defenders of Pingxingguan were still the troops of Daisuke Kotani, a certain brigade under the jurisdiction of the 41st Division of the Japanese Army, and the garrison of Pingxingguan had 1,000 people. ”。
"Good! Call back the Fanzhi guerrillas and tell them to pay attention to safety, and the cold guns in the bunkers can delay the advance of the Japanese 6th Division. ”
Li Yunlong waved his hand when he heard the words and said!
"Yes, Captain." The communications officer at command saluted, then turned and left to deliver the message.
Ding Wei, the head of the 28th Regiment, who was standing beside Li Yunlong, said in a condensed voice: "Lao Li, it seems that Gu Shoufu's march is very fast. It seems that you clearly angered Gu Shoufu before, and you should have made Gu Shoufu, an old devil, misjudge again. ”。
"As it should be. Now that we are ready for an ambush, Tani Shofu is still continuing to march towards Pingxingguan according to their previous plan. However, Daisuke Kotani in Pingxingguan did not realize that we had quietly entered the mountains on both sides of Qiaogou Canyon, more than ten miles east of Pingxingguan, to ambush the situation, which showed that the secrecy work was done very well. Now, it's up to Gu Shoufu to come and die. Li Yunlong sneered, no matter what, none of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army commanded by Gu Shoufu could survive the ambush battle at Pingxingguan.
The souls of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Jinling who died must be repaid one by one by the little devils of the 6th Division!
Kong Jie, the head of the independent regiment, said in a condensed voice: "Our 14,000 people ambushed on the hills on both sides of the Qiaogou Gorge Ancient Road, more than ten miles east of Pingxingguan. And then the next battle should be easier. ”。
"Lao Kong is right! I have deployed at least ten heavy machine guns on each of the high grounds, as well as five mortars and five mountain guns. Don't worry, Lao Kong, Lao Ding, it won't be too difficult to eat the 6th Division this time. ”
Li Yunlong pretended to wave his hand calmly, and he had to muster the absolute fighting spirit of Kong Jie and Ding Wei.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie laughed at the same time: "Lao Li, that's nature!" Fuck it! ”。
The three of them clasped their right hands together, this ambush battle, even if all the men and horses were killed, at least the 6th Division was wiped out and even severely damaged. After all, the souls of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Jinling who were slaughtered by the 6th Division commanded by Gu Shoufu were worth paying a heavy price for the three of them!
Not to mention that Li Yunlong and others were full of fighting spirit, at this time, Gu Shoufu finally commanded all the main forces of the division and regiment to rush to Pingxingguan. Since Pingxingguan had already stockpiled a large amount of materials for the 6th Division's next large-scale attack on the new 1st regiment base in Hengshan, Gu Shoufu, who rushed to Pingxingguan in a hurry, ordered the main force of the division to temporarily rest at Pingxingguan for half an hour.
Wait until the special combat team behind the enemy sent by Gu Shoufu gives full play to the information before deciding to dispatch, otherwise, Gu Shoufu will not be stupid to attack the Hengshan base area again if he is reckless.
After all, the consequences of the annihilation of the 20,000 Japanese troops commanded by Yoshio Shinozuka are enough to show the strength of the new regiment and Li Yunlong. Although Gu Shoufu is arrogant, he is not an easy attacker.
"Your Excellency Division Commander, although Pingxing Pass is a pass, it cannot accommodate more than 20,000 people in the division. If Li Yunlong were to lead his troops to attack us in the canyon east of Pingxingguan, it would be difficult for us to launch an attack on his base area. Seeing the Pingxing Pass Wall, the chief of staff of the division, Shimono Kazuho, suddenly said to Gu Shoufu.
At the beginning, Pingxingguan was a place of mourning for more than 115 people of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army who ate the first part of the 21st Brigade and the baggage convoy under the jurisdiction of Seishiro Itagaki!
