At about ten o'clock that night, about 10 kilometers north of Lincheng on the Pinghan Railway. Bayi Middle School?? Wenwang ≤≠≥.≈

The long torches stretched along the railroad tracks, and there was no end in sight, and the railway was crowded with people, countless people dressed but carrying guns on their backs, and people with grenades in their waists wielding hammers and shovels were busy working in full swing.

A good railway has been ripped to pieces by them, the rails and sleepers have all been turned aside, and in many places even the roadbed cannot be found.

An hour ago, they attacked this section and annihilated three or four hundred little devils and puppet troops, the main force was pursuing along the railway line, and the district squad, women's rescue team and other armed forces were organizing the people to completely destroy the railway.

Less than 500 meters to the south of the middle section of the railway, there is a small village - Guozhuang, a small farmhouse courtyard at the entrance of the village, there are torches everywhere, and the yard is full of people, and there is a lot of people.

"Hey, I said Lao Fan, how many people did your 34th regiment bring back this time?"

"Not much, less than seven thousand."

"Drink, see what you can, less than seven thousand? But let me tell you, don't be complacent, our 35th regiment has brought back more than 9,000 this time, and each person has a rifle, 20 bullets per person, 4 grenades per person, and the regiment headquarters still has a little reserve food. ”

"Xie Mengzi, more than 9,000 blows, do you know how many people there are in our 36th regiment now? Saying it scares you to death, 11,408, I don't want to mention guns and bullets, I still have a mountain artillery battalion and a cavalry battalion in my hand. ”

"What, the mountain artillery battalion and the cavalry battalion are there? I said Lao Chen, I have to tell you, our relationship is not ordinary, I didn't help you less in the last fight against Luyi County, more than 100 people died in the battle, and the whole regiment consumed nearly half of the ammunition, which made my heart tremble, so, the next time you encounter a difficult bone, you have to borrow a few cannons for me? ”

"Don't worry, it's on me!"

"That's pretty much it, by the way, Lao Zhao, why haven't I heard you speak for a long time, your regiment is acting with the headquarters, and the area spans several counties, it should be stronger than us, tell me, what is the scale of you now?"

"Alas, the commander is too conservative, don't say it."

"Why, it can't be worse than us, right? Besides, when did our Commander Qin keep it safe, it's really fresh? ”

"It's not conservative, the last time I hit Julu County, even the little devils in Xingtai City were transferred out, so I should have knocked Xingtai down in one go, but what was the result, the commander was stunned and ordered us to evacuate the giant deer and retreat immediately, you don't know, there is an artillery brigade of little devils in Xingtai City, but I can't do it."

"You just blow it, fight the giant deer, I know, the entire southeast of Hebei has been stirred into a pot of porridge by you, even the island troops of Shijiazhuang and Jinan have been dispatched, the commander's decision is right, and you won't even have a chance to run if you are one step later, you should hurry up, don't fix these useless, how many of you are there?"

"Hey, in fact, there are not many, the main force is probably more than 18,000, each gun is a hand, each battalion has an artillery company, a cavalry company, and the regiment headquarters also has mountain artillery and field artillery battalions, almost more than 20 guns of seven or five calibers, three or four thousand shells, cold mixture, it's a shame to say it."

"I wipe ......"

"I rub, this is forced to pretend? Are you fucking or aren't you? ”

"Beat him, beat this pretending dog to death."

"yes, fuck him."

chatting and chatting well, it suddenly turned into a scuffle, and the whole courtyard was suddenly in an uproar, and there were many spectators on the side who applauded.

"Whatever you do, you have endless energy, don't you?" A majestic voice suddenly sounded, and I saw that I didn't know when a few cadres of the Eighth Route Army came out of the room, and the leader was Commander Qin of the First Army Division.

The fight immediately stopped, and the onlookers also let go of the road, and a group of people waited for the hippie smiling faces to shout "commander, political commissar" lively.

Commander Qin turned back to Political Commissar Guo and said, "Old Guo, are you all here?" ”

Political Commissar Guo said: "Except for the remote individual county brigades and district teams that have not yet arrived, all the nearby ones have arrived, and there are many of the four main regiments, all of which are in place." ”

Commander Qin nodded, turned around and said loudly: "You stinky boys, you always say that you want to do a big fight, you have to fight happily, and now that the opportunity has come, I don't know if you can complete the task?" ”

"Commander, give the order."

"Yes, Commander, you can give the order, no matter how hard the bones are, we can gnaw them down."

……

The generals immediately clamored and shouted.

"Okay, now I order, the 34th Regiment and the 35th Regiment immediately attack and advance in the direction of Xingtai, fortify outside Xingtai City, and do not let a little devil go out of the city."

The head of the 34th regiment Fan and the commander of the 35th regiment Xie stepped forward and said loudly: "Yes, I guarantee the completion of the task", and then turned around and left.

"The headquarters of the 37th Regiment will attack and advance in the direction of Shijiazhuang, recover the two counties of Zanhuang and Gaoyi before dawn, take Yuanshi and Ningjin before tomorrow evening, and use the four counties as horns for each other, and nail them there like a nail, blocking the island army support troops in Shijiazhuang and Hengshui, and not allowing a little devil to come."

"Yes, mission guaranteed!"

Commander Zhao of the 37th Regiment, who pretended to be a good man, also turned around and left happily with his generals.

Seeing that the commander and political commissar were ready to go back to the house, he immediately became anxious, quickly stepped forward and stopped in front of the two, and shouted: "The commander and political commissar still have me, our regiment has not received the task yet?" ”

Commander Qin seemed to have just remembered, and said, "Oh, you guys? Wait, for the time being, but don't worry, you will have to fight. ”

After speaking, he ignored him, turned around and entered the house, leaving Head Chen outside the house with a look of unwillingness.

……

At about 11 o'clock that night, Pingding County, which is more than ten miles away from Yangquan.

The officers and men of the Second Army Subdivision of the Taihang Military Region of the Eighth Route Army were launching a general attack, the enemy's outer defense line was all broken, and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army crossed the blockade line like a tide and charged into the city with all their might.

Pingding County is located in the throat of the middle section of the Zhengtai Railway, is the key control area of the Japanese army, the defenders in the city are about a brigade, but the Eighth Route Army invested two regiments, more than 10,000 troops, from the east and west two roads to attack, less than two hours to break through the enemy's defensive line.

At the same time, the Shouyang and Yuci fronts in the direction of Taiyuan were also gunfire and cannons, and the shouts of killing shook the sky, and tens of thousands of soldiers of the Second Army Division turned the entire western line of Zhengtai Road into a pot of porridge, and countless pillboxes and artillery towers along the way were uprooted, and the reinforcements transferred from Taiyuan by the island army were blocked in Yuci.

With the experience accumulated in the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, they once again copied the Zhengtailu Raid.
