Chapter 252: The Japanese Army Attacked

The old pole walked into the headquarters with a smile.

"Wen boy, you still run very fast, I thought you would not be able to rush back until the Japanese army captured Duyun, but I didn't expect it to be so fast."

The old pole is in a military uniform, but there is a fur hat on his head, which is nondescript.

"Put your hat on, how much did you collect?"

The old man saw that Zhang Ziwen had a serious face, so he had to put his adjutant's hat on his head.

"There are less than 200 people, and they are all refugees, who are eating and drinking, and there is no one who can be used as cannon fodder."

is still as indifferent as back then, and Zhang Ziwen doesn't bother to take care of him.

"I brought back two hundred men, and in a moment I gathered them together and filled them into two battalions. One battalion is in charge of tension, and one battalion you and Xiaowu are in charge. The total number of people is already nine hundred, one hundred more than the eight hundred people in the four rows of warehouses. ”

The old pole nodded, and ordered his brothers to make arrangements.

Nine hundred people were waiting for orders in the colonel's field at Shaba, two hundred of them playing with guns in their hands.

"Brothers, this time the Japanese army invaded our countryside and has reached the outside of Dushan City, what should we do?"

"Kill, kill, kill, kill ......"

The voice of the teaching team was like a bell, shaking the sky, and the guns in the hands of the two hundred recruits were frightened.

"There is no doubt about killing the enemy, it's just that the team is uneven now, so it needs to be adjusted, the Duyun garrison battalion is divided into two, and the teaching team is filled with 100 people each led by Zhang Li and Wu Yuzhu, and 100 recruits each."

There was no oath, no ceremony, and immediately after the reorganization was completed, he went to Dushan.

What Zhang Ziwen didn't expect was that just after Liangmu, someone came to report that the 91st Division had arrived behind him.

Zhang Ziwen waited for about ten minutes, and several cars came to Zhang Ziwen.

Walking down from the car, Zhang Ziwen stepped forward and said, "General Wang, it's hard work, your department is really fast."

Wang Tielin didn't know Zhang Ziwen, but when he saw the strict military discipline, he didn't dare to look down on him in his heart.

"Acting on orders, brother?"

"Zhang Ziwen of the guerrilla detachment of the Contemptible Expeditionary Force received an urgent telegram and was ordered to return to his hometown to block the Japanese army."

The expeditionary force appeared in Guizhou, and Wang Tielin couldn't turn around.

"Division commander, the telegram that just arrived this morning, Zhang Ziwen, the deputy commander of the guerrilla expeditionary force, was ordered to return to Duyun to serve as the commander of the Qiannan garrison."

"What about Commander Han?"

"Commander Han continues to serve as the commander of the Qiangui border guard, but it seems that he will lead the four branches to retreat."

Only then did Wang Tielin stretch out his hand and said: "Contemptible Wang Tielin, you have just returned to the defense, some things may not be clear, General Tang Enbo is the commander-in-chief of the Qiangui Border Region, and this blocking battle is in charge of Commander Sun Yuanliang." You and I are fighting in the same trench, and we want to support each other. ”

Zhang Ziwen is not a fool, people sell you face, so you naturally can't slap him in the face.

"Division Commander Wang has a good reputation, the contemptible people hurriedly returned to their hometown, they like to bring two hundred people, the heavy artillery has not been brought back, the artillery fire is slightly weak, and Division Commander Wang will need to help at that time."

Wang Tielin shook his head, Zhang Ziwen didn't expect Wang Tielin to be so faceless.

"To tell you the truth, our division still has no artillery battalion, only two infantry regiments, and half of the brothers are still holding broadswords, which is really a broadsword team."

Zhang Ziwen was dumbfounded, such a heroic unit, how could he be so embarrassed, although he did not bring back heavy firepower, but Duyun's three Type 92 infantry guns have not moved.

In addition to the more than 10 mortars of the teaching team, not to mention the artillery battalion, an artillery company can still be formed.

"But Brother Zhang, don't worry, there is an artillery battalion already in Dushan, and you will know when you arrive in Dushan."

In the evening, two regiments of the 91st Division and the Duyun garrison battalion entered Dushan.

Zhang Ziwen knew where the artillery battalion came from, that is, the training camp of the Artillery Academy.

After some deliberation, it was decided as follows:

The 91st Division was responsible for frontal blockade, and deployed defenses in the areas of Heishiguan, Bailapo, and Jialao River

The Duyun garrison battalion was divided into two parts, one was deployed along the Daqi Mountain, and the other was deployed in the Kapu area to consolidate the defense line on both sides of Dushan.

Libo was garrisoned by the remnants of the 97th Army and the Libo Security Corps.

Zhang Ziwen hurriedly sealed the old guns and gave them to the 91st Division to relieve its embarrassment that there were no guns available.

In addition, the U.S. military at Dushan Airport helped to reconnoitre, so they were able to deploy defense with confidence.

In the early morning of the 30th, the enemy crossed the provincial border and invaded Dushan County without encountering resistance from our ground troops, except for the fierce fire fired by 12 US planes at Liuzhai.

The vanguard of the Japanese army passed through Nanzhai at 8 o'clock in the morning of the 30th and arrived at Mawei Old Street at 9 o'clock.

At 21 o'clock that night, the search unit of the 91st Division of the National Army (the third battalion and the search company) made contact with the enemy's vanguard troops attacking north along the Qiangui Highway, and a fierce battle broke out.

Some of the 104th Wing, the vanguard of the Japanese army, took advantage of the darkness to blend in with the flow of refugees, and some chased the refugees behind with guns in the back, and at two or three o'clock in the morning, the sky was hazy with moonlight, a misty drizzle, a cold wind, and a cold air.

Gunfire in the distance, the 91st Division stationed on the position of Heishiguan forcibly blocked the traffic, first held a gun to the refugees to order to retreat, due to the enemy gunfire behind gradually approaching, the refugees were helpless, continued to flee for their lives, the defenders shot at the top of the victims, the poor refugees were in a dilemma, had to resign themselves to fate, some sat on the ground, some took the night to the low recess on the side of the road to hide, so the national army and the enemy launched a shootout, the battle was tight and loose, lasted about 1 hour, the two sides also fired some shells, before dawn, The enemy took advantage of the chaos to occupy the Black Stone Pass.

There were not many casualties among the troops on both sides, and the refugees were killed, trampled to death, jumped over rocks, and wounded abounded, and piles of corpses were of the national army, the Japanese army, and even more innocent refugees.

After the occupation of Heishi Pass, the Japanese army continued to take the 2nd Brigade of the 104th Wing as the vanguard and attacked north along the Qiangui Highway.

Fleeing to the low pass in front of Bailapo, they were attacked head-on by the 271st Regiment of the 91st Division, and the enemy attacked with the main force, and our 273rd Regiment immediately carried out a flank attack on the enemy in front of the 271st Regiment's position to repel the enemy. After the arrival of enemy reinforcements in the afternoon of the same day, they continued to fiercely attack the positions of the 271st and 273rd regiments on the left and right sides of the low pass and on Baihutou Mountain.

Zhang Ziwen received a telegram from the Japanese army to break through the Heishi Pass, and immediately urged the tobacco factory garrison to move forward quickly.

"Ordered all departments to immediately send personnel to investigate, and immediately report to the Japanese army when it is discovered. Ma Xiaobao, if you rush back to Duyun, you must have suppressed Wan Hu as soon as possible, if he dares to run to me to correct the Fa on the spot, take my guards with you. ”

"Brother Wen, you ............"

"Hurry up, less wordy, I'm still waiting to see the day when the Japanese army rolls out of China, hurry up and give me back."
