Chapter 0027 Fishing in Troubled Waters
Leaving Zhenru Station, walking about half a kilometer, Feng Chen stopped and said to Fang Guoxiong, the commander of the guard company beside him: "Company Commander Fang, I have a suggestion, can you refer to it and see if it is feasible." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"What advice?" Fang Guoxiong stretched out his hand and motioned to the soldiers behind him to stop and asked.
"Shanghai North Railway Station is located at the intersection of Tianmu East Road and Baoshan Road, and Tianmu East Road in front of the station is the dividing line between the public concession and the Chinese boundary. Feng Chen said.
"Xu Jian, come here." After listening to Feng Chen's suggestion, Fang Guoxiong called the platoon commander Xu Jian over.
Fang Guoxiong took out a map of downtown Shanghai from his backpack and spread it on the ground, surrounded by Feng Chen, Mo Sanqiang, and Xu Jian.
Feng Chen looked at the map carefully, found everyone's current location and said: "We are now on Tongchuan Road, about 5 kilometers away from the North Railway Station, we can enter the Public Concession from Zhongshan Road, go around to the North District of the Public Concession, and wait for the opportunity from behind." ”
"Isn't our personnel too small, the North Railway Station is very close to the Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters at the Jiangwan Road intersection, and there must be heavy defense." Mo Sanqiang looked at the map and said.
"Grandma's, if you want to make a big one, let's make a big one, let's sum it up, not only seize the North Station, but also give him the headquarters of the dog day by the way!" Mo Sanqiang reminded Fang Guoxiong with one word, and Fang Guoxiong said proudly.
Feng Chen stared at the map for a while and said, "As long as we plan well, it is also possible to take out the enemy's headquarters." ”
The four of them surrounded the map and muttered and discussed for a long time, and finally everyone agreed to act according to Feng Chen's suggestion.
More than 30 people were all dressed in casual clothes and infiltrated the public concession in batches, Feng Chen and Mo Sanqiang each led a team, and everyone met at the intersection of Sichuan Road in the north area of the public concession.
Two other people were sent to the headquarters of the 156th Brigade on the front line to deliver a message, and after the guard company successfully raided behind the railway station, it used three signal flares as a signal to notify the main force of the 156th Brigade in front of it to start a strong attack, flanking the enemy in front and rear.
After the plan was made, all the staff found a place to rest on the spot, and Feng Chen and Mo Sanqiang took Xu Jian and three soldiers into the city to buy casual clothes.
About an hour later, Feng Chen and a few people took the clothes they bought back and distributed them to everyone, and the soldiers of the guard company took off their military uniforms one after another and changed into civilian clothes.
After everyone changed their clothes, looking at the plainclothes armed forces of more than 30 people, Feng Chen smiled, isn't this what the Japanese Resident Volunteer Corps looks like?
With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Feng Chen thought to himself, let's pretend to be a Japanese resident militia!
At about 16 o'clock in the afternoon, two groups of people and horses met at the intersection of Sichuan Road behind the North Railway Station, and the weapons were pulled by a car hired by Mo Sanqiang.
When distributing weapons, Feng Chen pulled the company commander Fang Guoxiong aside and said: "Company Commander Fang, we are pretending to be the young volunteers of the Japanese Resident People's League, you explain to everyone, don't talk easily, I will deal with it when we encounter the Japanese army." ”
The soldiers in a platoon of the guard company, dressed in civilian clothes and carrying guns, were a group of armed members of the Japanese resident militia, and under Feng Chen's signal, a group of people and horses swaggered towards the North Railway Station, and the gunfire in front of the railway station was still very intense.
When the team arrived at the train station, a small group of about 10 Japanese marines stopped everyone, and one of the leaders asked loudly in Japanese, "Who are you?" ”
Feng Chen greeted him at the front of the team and replied in fluent Japanese: "We are the Young Volunteers of the Imperial Japanese Resident Corps, and we heard that there is a shortage here, so the head of the Kawabata Ju specially ordered us to rush to support. ”
"Roar!" That Shao Zuo just stretched out his thumb, Mo Sanqiang, who was standing next to Feng Chen, the dagger in his hand, the cold light flashed, and a stream of blood spurted out from Shao Zuo's neck, and that Shao Zuo stared and slowly fell down.
The soldiers of the guard company were all good at one in a hundred, and they were very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they took out the remaining 9 Japanese marines.
Fang Guoxiong looked around for a moment and ordered loudly: "Quickly put away the Japanese weapons, everyone immediately rush into the station, find cover, and fight Lao Tzu very hard from behind!" ”
As he spoke, Fang Guoxiong fired three flares into the air.
In front of the railway station, the main force of the 156th Brigade saw the dazzling signal flare in the air, and the brigade commander Weng Zhaoyuan immediately issued an order for a general attack, and Zhang Junsong rushed to the front with the 6th regiment.
After Zhang Junsong's regiment took control of the North Railway Station, Feng Chen suggested to Fang Guoxiong: "Company Commander Fang, we continue to pretend to be the Japanese resident militia, simply take back the Tiantongan Station, and then we will go to the enemy's headquarters." ”
After Fang Guoxiong immediately consulted with Zhang Junsong, the commander of the 6th Regiment, Zhang Junsong took two battalions and a company of the 6th Military Police Regiment to follow the soldiers of the guard company in civilian clothes and rushed forward along the North Sichuan Road.
The soldiers of the two battalions in the back, under the command of the regiment commander Zhang Junsong, ran and fired empty guns into the air from time to time, looking like a group of Chinese soldiers, desperately pursuing the members of the Japanese resident militia.
Soon, Tiantongan Station was taken, Zhang Junsong left a battalion to guard, and everyone continued to rush towards the Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters at the east of North Sichuan Road and Jiangwan Road intersection in the old way.
When he arrived at the gate of the headquarters, he saw two heavy machine guns guarding there from afar, one on the left and one on the right, Feng Chen had an idea, brandished the Browning pistol in his hand, and shouted loudly in pure Japanese while running forward: "The Chinese army is coming, the Chinese army is coming!" ”
Sure enough, the six Japanese soldiers guarding the machine gun were confused, and watched Feng Chen lead people to rush towards the courtyard of the headquarters, and the six Japanese soldiers guarding the heavy machine gun were killed by Mo Sanqiang and Xu Jian, who were closely behind Feng Chen, before they could react, and the people who caught up behind turned the muzzle of the heavy machine gun and fired towards the building in the courtyard.
Feng Chen took Mo Sanqiang and Xu Jian to rush into the confidential room on the second floor of the headquarters first, and the three female confidential officers in the confidential room were confiscated before they could resist.
Feng Chen put a Browning pistol to the temple of a female newspaper operator and asked in Japanese, "Where is the cipher code?" ”
The female operator pointed to the safe inside, Feng Chen escorted her over, opened the safe, and quickly put away the cipher code and a stack of important documents inside.
Feng Chen just stood up, and Xu Jian, who was following behind him, pushed him hard behind him, pushing Feng Chen to the ground, and then "bang, bang, three gunshots", Feng Chen looked back, and a Japanese soldier hiding behind the door was shot twice in the chest, and fell to the ground, red blood gurgling outward.
When he looked at Xu Jian again, his left shoulder was also bubbling with red blood.
Feng Chen hurriedly got up from the ground, looked at Xu Jian with grateful eyes, and said, "Thank you Brother Xu for saving your life, if it wasn't for my brother's push me, I'm afraid I would be heroic." Are your injuries okay? ”
"It's fine, it's just a scratch." Xu Jian replied.
Zhang Junsong, the commander of the 6th regiment, rushed into the headquarters with a large number of men and horses, immediately deployed defense, and cleared the remnants of the enemy layer by layer.
At 17:20, the 156th Brigade recaptured the North Station and Tiantongan Station, occupied the headquarters of the Japanese Marine Corps, and forced the Japanese army to retreat to the east of North Sichuan Road and south of Target Road.
Shiozawa Koichi's arrogance was finally defeated.
The first Japanese offensive ended in failure.
After the Japanese attack was frustrated, at 18 o'clock, the Japanese consulate in Shanghai asked the British and American consuls to mediate, and the Chinese and Japanese armies reached an agreement to stop fighting at 20 o'clock on the night of the 29th.
The 19th Route Army knew that this behavior of the Japanese army was a measure to delay the troops and wait for reinforcements, but because the army also needed to adjust its deployment, it agreed to an armistice.
At the same time, the 19th Route Army strengthened its deployment, urgently ordered the 60th Division stationed east of Zhenjiang to be stationed in Nanxiang and Zhenru on the front line, and transferred the 61st Division to Shanghai, and the 78th Division stationed in Shanghai was all put into the front line to strengthen the defense and be ready for battle.
Zhang Junsong, the commander of the 6th Regiment, Fang Guoxiong, the commander of the guard company, and Xu Jian, the commander of the first platoon, were specially commended by the military headquarters of the 19th Route Army.
