Captain Devil He wanted to kill Han Lie, because Han Lie had abolished a bunch of them, and when the people of their first company rushed to the mountain. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
found Han Lie and they had long since disappeared without a trace. So Captain Devil was very angry and had no choice but to go back.
Back on the side of Taierzhuang, the troops guarding the vicinity of Taierzhuang are now gradually falling into a bitter battle. Because of the heavy losses in personnel.
The 31st Division could no longer draw any reinforcements, and Wang Guanwu, the deputy division commander in charge of commanding the defenders of Zhuangnai, asked the division commander Chi Fengcheng to retreat on the phone.
Division Commander Chi was exhausted and hesitated, and asked the chief of staff, Qu Shen. Qu Shen believed that a little abandonment would affect the overall situation, and suggested that the engineer battalion and cavalry company should be taken up.
Chi Fengcheng said to the people guarding Taierzhuang on the phone: "Taierzhuang is our grave, resolutely resist it, and we can't retreat!" Reinforcements are coming soon! ”
Engineer battalions and cavalry companies were ordered to reinforce the village. At the same time, it was ordered that the 186th Regiment and the 182nd Regiment must each draw one battalion to urgently reinforce the North Gate.
After the reinforcements arrived, Wang Guanwu led the troops to counterattack, and the officers and soldiers pulled down the Japanese flag, replaced it with the Chinese flag, and blocked part of the Japanese army through the gap in the wall, and the remnants of the Japanese army in the city retreated into the City God Temple.
In order to contain the Japanese attack, the 181st Regiment (owing the 3rd Battalion) and the 2nd Battalion of the 185th Regiment were ordered to detour back to the Japanese flank and launch attacks on Liujiahu, Sanlizhuang and Dunshang Village.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the 2nd Battalion of the 185th Regiment captured Dunshang Village, the 2nd Battalion of the 181st Regiment approached Sanlizhuang, and the 1st Battalion of the 181st Regiment captured Liujiahu.
Han Lie led the Han family army to meet the enemy, because soldiers are meant to fight for the country, although Han Lie knew that this war would be a defeat in the end.
But Han Lie still hoped that if he could help save it, he still hoped to help save it as much as possible.
It was at this time that the Japanese launched a large-scale counterattack, which caught the three battalions in Dunshang village by surprise.
Although they found Han Lie's 100 or so people, they completely ignored Han Lie and them, because the number of people was relatively small, and they couldn't help at all.
So the men of the three battalions of them only fought their own, and they were blocking the strong attack of the devils.
Due to the lack of superiority in numbers, the village of Dunshang was immediately lost, and most of the Chinese officers and men of the three battalions were killed or wounded during the retreat. Han Lie and the others could only retreat while fighting. Nearly 20 people were killed or wounded.
At about 1 p.m., 11 Japanese tanks rushed directly to a distance of 200 meters from the northwest wall of Taierzhuang, and then stopped and opened fire in Taierzhuang.
The Japanese tank men did not know that the Chinese defenders in Taierzhuang had brought in heavy artillery, and the heavy artillery of the Chinese army suddenly began to bombard, six of the eleven Japanese tanks were hit by bullets and caught fire, and the remaining five fled in a hurry.
The Chinese defenders on the wall could not help but cheer, and the brave soldiers jumped off the wall and began to pursue the fleeing Japanese tank men in all directions.
Other soldiers climbed onto the wrecked tank and unloaded the machine guns on it.
The 31st Division of the Chinese defenders in Taierzhuang had suffered more than 3,000 casualties in the past few days, and the division commander Chifengcheng reorganized the whole division into seven battalions.
In order to strengthen the strength of Taierzhuang, Sun Lianzhong, commander-in-chief of the Second Army, ordered Zhang Jinzhao's 30th Division and Wu Pengju's 44th Brigade to reinforce them.
In the evening, all Japanese reinforcements arrived at Liujiahu. Han Lie: They have been fighting guerrilla warfare near Taierzhuang. He didn't dare to fight hard with the devils, because the devils' 10th division fought too hard.
The battle situation in Taierzhuang is becoming more and more severe. The Chinese defenders had an absolute advantage in numbers, but the Japanese army occupied half of the village by fighting back and forth.
This made Li Zongren, commander of the theater of operations, "very surprised," and he strictly ordered the Second Army to wipe out the Japanese troops that rushed into Taierzhuang before the 29th:
Taierzhuang is an important place in front of Xuzhou, and it is also a liaison artery in the rear of the Tang Army, and the relationship is important.
It was reported that the enemy in the vicinity of the area was about a mixed wing, and that our troops were several times outnumbered by the enemy.
Taierzhuang Weizi was rushed into a section by the enemy, and he was very surprised. Your commander-in-chief is responsible for strictly supervising the headquarters, and the place must be cleared before the 29th, so as not to delay it, and it is important to miss the opportunity.
On this day, Tang Enbo's troops were entangled with the Japanese army near Zaozhuang with only a small number of troops, and the main force of the corps was still hiding in the Baoqinggu Mountains and could not come out.
Although Tang Enbo kept calling ****** and Li Zongren, reporting that his troops had carried out continuous attacks on the Japanese troops in the area of Zaozhuang and Lincheng.
But at least from the battlefield situation in the direction of Taierzhuang, it did not show any countermeasure effect.
On the 27th, however, a guerrilla force led by Li Mingyang, the administrative commissioner and commander of security, invaded Lincheng.
Not only did they annihilate the Japanese troops who remained in the city, but they also burned a large number of military supplies stored by the Japanese army. The fire burned for a day and a night.
The Japanese army was forced to send troops from the south to the north to reinforce Lincheng, but by the time the reinforcements arrived, Commander Li's guerrillas had already run away without a trace.
In Taierzhuang, the Japanese army occupies the east, and our army occupies the west, and the close confrontation between the two warring sides frequently leads to brutal street battles; Outside Taierzhuang, except for the direction of Xuzhou in the south, the remaining three sides are already under the encirclement of the Japanese army.
Regardless of whether the counterattack operations launched by the Chinese army inside and outside Taierzhuang were over, as soon as dawn came, the Japanese army once again gathered its main force and began to attack Taierzhuang.
At the same time, Japanese artillery concentrated fire from the east, west, and north to bombard the Chinese defenders' positions in Taierzhuang.
Smoke and smoke were everywhere, and the Chinese defenders could only hide in improvised dugouts, but the defenders on the walled walls could not.
Because the Japanese infantry came up with the artillery fire. I don't know how many times the wall has been blown down and how many times it has been repaired.
The defenders, who had not been killed or injured in the bombardment and bombardment, crawled out of the rubble, and through the smoke and dust, they could see the earthy yellow waves of Japanese soldiers rushing in.
………… (Dividing Line)
On the morning of the 28th, the Chinese defenders of Taierzhuang found that there were more attacking Japanese troops.
Han Lie and their Han family army were also in the city, and the commander of the 31st Division, Chi Feng City, who was guarding the city, had met, and Han Lie had also explained his identity.
Han Lie just wanted to contribute his strength to the motherland, and after seeing Han Lie's determination, Commander Chi Fengcheng let him stay.
After the arrival of Japanese reinforcements, the units participating in the attack on Taierzhuang were: the 63rd Infantry Wing (about two brigades), the 10th Independent Machine Gun Squadron, the 10th Light Armored Vehicle Squadron, the Temporary Combat Vehicle Squadron of the Chinese Garrison Army, the 1st Brigade of the 10th Field Artillery Company (lacking the 1st Squadron), the 2nd Field Heavy Artillery Wing (lacking the 2nd Brigade), the 1st Squadron of the Artillery Wing of the Chinese Garrison Army, and the 1st Squadron of the 10th Engineer Wing.
The northwest corner of the Taierzhuang walled wall collapsed again, and hundreds of Japanese troops poured in from the gap to approach the North Station.
"Charge! Charge! A wing leader of the Japanese devils outside the city shouted, and they charged at the North Station.
However, the Chinese defenders weaved a dense web of fire, which hindered the charge of the Japanese infantry. The Japanese devils can't get forward.
The impact of the devil was even more fierce, and at nine o'clock, the Japanese army strengthened its forces and forcibly charged, and the two sides fell into a white-knuckle battle.
"Kill!" The knives of Han Lie and the others fell on the little devil one by one, and the blood donation sprayed on Han Lie's face, and the faces of them and the others were already stained with blood.
"You've earned 500 points...... I hope you keep up the good work. ”
"You've earned 700 points......"
Han Lie slaughtered with a knife, and Han Zi and the others were also able to kill.
"Brothers! Don't leave me alive, kill me all! Kill all these **** people. Han Lie shouted, because it was not bad for this group of Japanese devils to kill people.
Han Jiajun soon had more than 50 people left, and they all stood beside Han Lie and the others, looking at the groups of Japanese devils who were approaching.
