Chapter 156: Changsha's Great Victory

After running around all night, Zhang Ziwen failed to catch Shoko Sato.

Three days later, Ma Xiaobao was found at a farmer's house and was shot in the abdomen.

Zhang Ziwen immediately sent someone to Guiyang for medical treatment.

This is the autumn harvest, and Zhang Ziwen guards the scattered troops to ensure that the grain is not destroyed by the spies.

In previous years, even if there was a shortage of grain, there was a transfer of grain from Hunan, but now that Japan has crossed the Xinqiang River, Hunan will not be able to protect itself this year.

Guizhou's grain is more precious, and in order to ensure people's livelihood, Zhang Ziwen has to find a way.

Most of the supplementary regiments were locals, and with years of conscription, there was a shortage of local labor.

The supplementary regiment organization helped the people to harvest in the autumn and won the recognition of the people.

Zhang Ziwen was in the autumn harvest, but Hunan was already inseparable.

In September of the 28th year of the Republic of China, Okamura Ninji formulated a combat policy that could relieve the periphery of Wuhan, and because of the defeat of Suizao, Okamura set his sights on the south, where victory could be achieved.

Okamura judged that the Hunan garrison was 25 divisions based on intelligence, and that Hunan was a major grain producing area in China, so as long as it was laid, it would increase the burden on the Chinese army.

At the same time, it can also reduce the scope of activities of the Chinese army, and also make the railway run from north to south.

Therefore, Okamura decided to start a surprise attack in mid-September, using mechanized troops to strike and annihilate the main force of the Ninth Theater in the shortest possible period of time, and annihilate it in the areas around Pingjiang and Xiushui in northern Hunan and Jiangxi.

The 11th Army of the Japanese Army concentrated the 6th, 33rd, 101st, and 106th divisions and 3 brigades (including one navy and one aviation).

More than 100,000 troops, under the command of Commander Okamura Ninji, adopted the policy of rushing and attacking and attacked Changsha.

In mid-September, the combat command post of the 11th Army was stationed in Xianning, and Okamura personally came to direct the operation. The battle order was officially issued.

On September 14, the 106th Division of the Japanese Army in northern Jiangxi had just recovered and removed Matsuura from his post and replaced him with Ryotaro Ino.

The new official took office, and Jing Liang took the lead in launching a diversion offensive.

On the side of the national army, Luo Zhuoying, who had just lost Nanchang, did not dare to be sloppy for the sake of shame.

The 58th Army of the First Group Army of the Yunnan Army guarded the line from Gaoyou City to Xiangfuguan; The 60th Army guarded the auspicious Fuguan to the Guxian line; The 32nd Army of the 19th Group Army of the Jin Army defended the Jinjiang Estuary to Gaoyou City and the southern shore of the Jinjiang River; The 49th Army of the Northeast Army and the 74th Army of the Central Army controlled the vicinity of Shanggao. There are also 30 armies of the Sichuan Army and the base of Wang Ling of the 30th Group Army.

That night, the Japanese army first launched an attack on Huibu.

The next day, the positions of the 184th Division were broken through.

After the Japanese captured Huibu, the 106th Division was divided into two routes.

Nanju Shuikou Gan, Zhangshuling; He went west to Luofang and governed the city, and then also turned to the south.

The east side has made a move, and the north side will naturally not let go.

The 33rd Division was formed in Sendai at the beginning of the year, and it did not know much about the Chinese battlefield.

As early as a few months ago, when Xue Yue and Lao Jiang Dingniu were plowing, they launched ploughs to irrigate the fields and transport grain up the mountain, and at the same time demolished the railroad and destroyed the bridge.

This trick was aimed at the shoes of the Japanese army, and most of the Japanese soldiers were made of leather shoes and pigskin.

After encountering water, it is not only slippery but also swollen, and the tank cannot walk, and the car cannot walk.

It was even more difficult to walk on two legs, and Xue Yue used a trick to drag the Japanese army to the same running line.

The same running line is only for maneuverability.

The artillery fire of the Japanese army and the military literacy far exceeded that of more than 200,000 mud legs.

But Xue Yue replaced defense with offense to make up for the disadvantage.

The Japanese army was allowed to penetrate for a long time, and only made symbolic attacks and raids.

Originally, everything was under Xue Yue's control, but Okamura wanted to make a surprise move, almost making Xue Yue lose his square inch.

The Third Division drew a detachment and set off from Dongting Lake, and the Third Fleet cleared a safe waterway at some point, and a detachment made a surprise attack on Yingtian.

Ou Zheng only put one battalion of troops, where to stop.

Guan Linhui Kebiou was in a hurry, and as soon as the camp was lost, he immediately asked for a retreat.

Okamura was almost angry to death, and he ran a position that could be a year, and he gave up when he said he would give up.

The Japanese army continued to go straight to Changsha, and across the Xinqiang River was the Miluo River.

After fighting on the Miluo River for several days, the national army fought and withdrew according to the plan.

The 6th Division, which was inseparable from the 86th Army's fight in Huangguang, approached Changsha all the way.

When I arrived at the Laodao River, my back was cold.

Inaba felt right, because they did go into the pocket of the Tiger of Kexue.

Leaning on the Dongting Lake on the left and the Mufu Mountain on the right, the four rivers of Xinqiang River, Miluo River, Laodao River, and Liuhe River were used as the basis for delaying the Japanese army, and the practice of "turning roads into fields and transporting grain up the mountains" was thoroughly implemented to eliminate the mobility of the Japanese army's mechanized troops.

The general policy of "retreating to a decisive battle and striving for the periphery" and "plowing the fields to irrigate water and transporting grain up the mountains" was adopted.

By fighting and retreating, they moved between the four rivers and the Makufu mountains, attacked and then retreated and hid, dragging the Japanese army into the four rivers, and finally surrounded the Japanese army deep into the four rivers with the main force in Changsha City and the troops hiding in the mountains and forests on the periphery.

Okamura received a telegram from Inaba and gasped.

Xue Yue destroyed all the bridges, the Japanese army broke through, and the Chinese army disappeared all the way.

That's an ambush, absolutely.

Okamura ordered the whole army to retreat.

Xue Yue hid fifteen elite divisions in Changsha, waiting for the Japanese to kill Changsha City, and then kill them.

After waiting for two days, Inaba had never seen the Laodao River, and while waiting, Xue Yue waited for a piece of news.

The Japanese army retreated, UU read the book uukanshunet This is the news obtained from the plane with anti-aircraft artillery.

On October 1, the Japanese army retreated on all fronts.

Xue Yue launched a general attack order on October 3, and the troops hidden in the mountains climbed out one after another.

Even chasing and fighting. The Japanese army ran back to Wuhan in seven days.

Xue Yue failed to eat the Eleventh Army, so he could only grit his teeth and reprimand Okamura for being cowardly.

Zhang Ziwen received the news in mid-October.

"Haha, the rice leaf, finally suffered a big loss.

Changsha is a great victory, Xiao Luo gave news to the battalions, and also went to inform the government. ”

This is the first time that the Chinese army has used a large corps for ambush, and if the Japanese army crosses the Laodao River, it will be a great victory that will shock the world.

In 1939, the Japanese army was no longer able to invade as it had in the early days.

China is growing, but it is growing too slowly and too painfully.

During the Battle of Changsha, Germany brazenly invaded Poland and conquered Changsha in the same year.

Zhang Ziwen received the news again after being happy, and he was not only a little worried.

The concern was the Yunnan-Burma Highway, and Britain spent its energy in Europe, and it was unable to control the Far East.

There are already Japanese troops in Vietnam, the Yunnan-Burma highway is lost again, and China no longer has foreign channels.

There is also a supplementary regiment of elite firearms is Mauser rifles, Germany in the face of Britain and France, must no longer be able to export guns, the source of weapons has become a big problem.

"Captain, I'm back."

Zhang Ziwen was happy when he heard the voice, and Rao Xiangyun came back.

"It's dark, but it's spirited, how is it this time?"

Rao Xiangyun poured two cups of tea and talked about things in western Hubei.

"After I went, the division commander was very happy, because we were all made in Hanyang at worst, and directly added our 500 recruits to the 613 regiment.

Battalion Commander Wu snatched the recruit's gun, but was scolded by Commander Wang. ”

Listening to Rao Xiangyun talk about what he had seen and heard, his heart slowly yearned for something, but he couldn't move now.
