Chapter 69: The Japanese Army's Stratagem
"Commander, the Japanese troops in Huailai, Yangyuan and other places are attacking Weixian and Guangling, and the troops of the 1st Army Division of our Military Region, in order to avoid their edge, took the initiative to withdraw from the county seat, and fought with the Japanese army, and successively annihilated more than 400 Japanese troops at Chaolingguan and Beifukou.
It is worth mentioning that the second battalion of the 687th Regiment annihilated more than 700 Japanese puppet troops, including more than 300 Japanese troops, in three places west of Hunyuan: Liugou, Yangshuigou and Tiancun.
When the Japanese troops from Baoding and Yixian to Laiyuan passed through Beiqi Village, Zijing Pass, Wang'an Town, and other places, they were successively attacked by the cavalry battalion of the military region and the troops of the 1st Army Division. The troops of the military region stretched out to the flank and rear of the Japanese army, destroyed the supply lines of the Japanese army, and constantly attacked the key points of communication, and annihilated more than 200 Japanese troops in the battle of Dalonghua.
The Japanese troops attacking Quyang, Pingshan, and Mengxian from Dingxian, Jingcheng, and Pingding, respectively, were also attacked by the troops of the 3rd and 4th Army Divisions of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. However, the Japanese army was numerous, and the 3rd and 4th Army Divisions were very difficult to fight, and the losses were not small, so they could only rely on the terrain to conduct guerrilla warfare with the Japanese army. ”
Fuping County, in the war room of the Jinchaji Military Region Headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.
It's called the War Room, but it's actually just an ordinary house, and then a military map is hung and a few tables are set up.
After all, the whole Fuping County is not a rich place, this is a mountainous county, the whole territory of the mountains and mountains, peaks and obstacles, the population is only more than 90,000, but the area is 2,500 square kilometers.
Naturally, the conditions are not much better, and the only advantage is that there are many mountains, which are suitable for fighting guerrillas.
The commander looked at the Japanese attack route on the map and the counterattack of his own side, and nodded.
Although the situation of blocking the enemy in the south was not very good, the situation on the entire battlefield was acceptable, and the Japanese army's attempt did not succeed.
"The 2nd battalion of the 687th Regiment performed well, with the strength of one battalion, it was able to annihilate more than 700 puppet troops for more than 700 days, and there was no false report of the results!" The director of the political department on the side hesitated.
"Probably not. I've heard of this second battalion, and I have some skills. The commander thought of something and explained to the others, "Didn't Lao Xu form an artillery battalion before?" Two of the mountain guns were captured by the second battalion of the 687th regiment.
It is said that in that ambush battle, the second battalion ambushed a Japanese convoy transporting captured weapons and captured thousands of rifles. The 689 Regiment can be formed, and this batch of weapons can be regarded as a great achievement. ”
"In this way, the second battalion's record is quite good. Thousands of rifles, it seems that there is no such a big harvest after the flat type pass, right? The chief of staff was surprised.
It's not that after Pingxingguan, the Eighth Route Army didn't have such a big battle, and the scale of the ambush battle was much larger than that of the second battalion, but the capture was not as much as that of the second battalion.
"If it's a seizure, it's true." The commander smiled, "Okay, let's not talk about that." This little devil bullied us with inferior equipment, there are not as many people as him, we can't always be beaten, no, we have to find a way to fight back. ”
"How is the commander going to fight back?" The chief of staff said with a smile.
"Here!"
The commander's hand fell on the town of Harahira.
"The Japanese army attacked in a big way, and the defense of Yuanping must be empty, so I told the 2nd Army Division to send troops to attack Yuanping Town to test the Japanese defense here. If the Japanese army's defense is weak, then it will be a good fight, and let the Japanese army know that our Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is not easy to bully. "The commander cut the railroad to the point.
"Report!"
Just as the commander was giving the order here, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside.
"Come in!"
"Report to the commander that traces of the Japanese puppet army were found dozens of miles north of Fuping, about 1,000 people."
"More than a thousand days of puppet army? North of Fuping? ”
Hearing this, the commander frowned, and then came to lie in front of the map, looking for the approximate location of the Japanese army.
。。。。。。
"Captain Wang, there are a lot of Japanese puppet troops."
Looking at the Japanese puppet army resting at the foot of the mountain in the distance, Li Hai said to Deputy Captain Wang with a solemn expression on the side.
Deputy Captain Wang naturally heard Li Haikou's ridicule, because he didn't believe that there were so many devils before, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"Platoon Commander Li, you have fought with these devils, what do you think their purpose is?" Deputy Captain Wang is not a stingy person, and he doesn't care about the previous inconsequential dirt at this time.
"Big Cow, bring me the map."
As soon as Lehi finished speaking, Li Daniu came to Lehi with a map and opened it.
And when he saw the map, Deputy Captain Wang was also stunned, "The devil's map? Where did you get it? ”
"Seized from the devils, of course. We seized a lot, but this one was left, and the rest was handed in. Li Daniu said proudly.
Hearing this, Deputy Captain Wang wanted to vomit blood.
What is the only one left, he doesn't have such a map in his hand, let alone the Japanese army, not even the Jin Sui army.
Maps are rare, and military maps are even more rare, especially for the Japanese army.
It is also a shame to say that during the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army drew a more detailed map of China than China itself.
Take the map drawn by the Jin Sui army as an example, if you fight according to the map drawn by the Jin Sui army, it is very likely that you will be pitted.
Therefore, the map of the Japanese army is the most popular, but there is also a problem, that is, it does not understand Japanese.
Li Hai took the map, pointed at it, and then looked at Deputy Captain Wang, "I think it's --- Lingqiu here!" ”
"Lingqiu? Why not Fuping? It is also very close to Fuping, and it is also the headquarters of the military region. Deputy Captain Wang questioned.
"We know that the headquarters of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is in Fuping, but the Japanese army doesn't know. And if this Japanese army is heading for Fuping, it will definitely not be this kind of force.
Therefore, I think that the goal of the Japanese army is Lingqiu, so that the passage to the source can be opened from the west, and the Japanese army in the east only needs to occupy Laiyuan.
From Daixian to Lingqiu, and then to Laiyuan and Yixian, this passage can be regarded as being opened. At that time, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region will be divided into two, and the end will not be able to take care of each other. Lehi said what was in his mind.
Hearing Li Hai's analysis, Deputy Captain Wang's face changed instantly, which was worse than the news of the Japanese army's attack on Fuping.
The military region was not very worried about the Japanese army's attack on Fuping, not to mention that it did not even have a brigade, even if it was a brigade, the military region was not afraid. Unless the Japanese army is a wing, that is the real bad news, but the Japanese army in front of you is only half a brigade, and the rest are puppet troops.
"The devil's plan must not be allowed to succeed, they must be stopped." Deputy Captain Wang must have said.
"We must stop it, but our two teams together are less than four hundred people, and it is not easy to deal with this more than 1,000-day puppet army!"
