When the rumbling explosion sounded, Xiao Siming and the others had already mounted their war horses and were about to leave. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before leaving, the soldiers of the cavalry company saw the spectacular scene of the military train carriage driving up the Ziya River railway bridge and falling into the river.

Wu Peng excitedly said to Xiao Siming: "Captain, it's the devil's army!" I can see clearly that there are fifteen carriages, one escort carriage with anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, two wagons for ammunition supplies, one carriage for 92 infantry guns and pack horses, and eleven ticket carriages for passengers! Let's not retreat yet, let's get the anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft machine guns and the four infantry guns on the escort carriage before leaving! That thing, it's too hard to fight devils! ”

Xiao Siming glanced at the train that fell in the Ziya River, and burst out with a word: "Withdraw!" ”

Yan Rou, who had made great contributions, put her arms around Xiao Siming's waist and whispered, "There won't be a big army of devils in this area, right?" Or, let's see how many people the little devil drowned before leaving, and go back to report the results! ”

Following the Eighth Route Army from Shouyang all the way to the Jilu border, Yan Rou, the eldest lady of the Yan family who was in distress, also knew the results of the battle, and what she said seemed to have a little military common sense!

Xiao Siming replied that there was no need to look at it, it was an infantry brigade of the Japanese army that was pulled up the military column, and it was a fully formed infantry brigade of the field division!

Yan Rou asked again: "Do you know so well?" ”

Xiao Siming said that there are only 100 people in one carriage of the ticket car, and about 1,100 people in the eleven carriages, plus a few drivers in the pack horses and infantry artillery carriages, isn't it a complete infantry brigade?

This is a very simple truth, but for Yan Rou, it is all knowledge!

Yan Rou put her head on Xiao Siming's back, and said softly: "You are really capable!" ”

Xiao Siming didn't reply, his legs clamped the horse's belly, shouted "drive", and the jade lion and horse rushed out like an arrow in the night!

The stronghold of the Haruta Yokoji squad is located in a small village on the east bank of the West Canal of the railway bridge on the south side of the Ziya River, and there are also the little devils of the grenadier group in the stronghold.

The rumbling explosion came, and several devils in the stronghold all ran out, and when they saw that the bridge was bombed, they panicked, and quickly ran back to the stronghold, grabbed the phone, and shouted "Moxi, Moxi".

More than an hour later, the devils of Qingxian County and Cangxian County drove motorcycles and cars to the Ziya River Railway Bridge. It's a pity that the bridge has been completely blown up, the devils of Qingxian County stand on the north bank of the Ziya River, and the devils of Cangxian County stand on the south bank of the Ziya River, communicating with each other in flags, but in the end they can only watch the military columns that fell into the Ziya River helplessly.

Of this column, the only ones alive were the 16 pack horses that pulled the infantry guns. After these pack horses fell into the Ziya River with the cart box, because the carriage was a truck carriage, the water filled the carriage, and the pack horses were free, and they even floated ashore!

As for the Japanese soldiers in the ranks, it goes without saying that they are completely dead. All the devils in the ticket carriage died in the carriage, and none of them were able to climb out. The number of devils in the escort carriage was small, and the train was thrown up by the force of the explosive bag explosion, and then fell down the Ziya River, they had already fainted, and they all choked to death after falling into the water. The difference is that the bodies of these devils floated on the river, some drifted down the river, and some were washed by the water to the river, where they were salvaged by the Japanese soldiers who rushed to check the situation and temporarily placed them by the river.

There is also the corpse of the little devil guarding the Ziya River railway bridge, these guys were all killed on the railway bridge, the bridge collapsed, and all the corpses fell into the water, in addition to being washed downstream by the flowing water, some of the corpses were washed to the Ziya River and were picked up by the Japanese soldiers who rushed to the river.

The scene in front of me was so miserable, so miserable that the little devils who came from Qingxian and Cangxian were stunned one by one, like mourning and approval!

Something so big happened, and Major General Qin Yashang, the commander of the Fifth Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Cangxian County, naturally wanted to go to the scene.

The Fifth Independent Mixed Brigade was formed in Tianjin in February, with five infantry brigades, an artillery team, an engineer team, a cavalry team, and a baggage corps.

Although it is a new unit, but the officers are all graduates of the army non-commissioned officer school, and the soldiers are also the elite of the country after 11 months of training, Major General Qin Yashang is ambitious after taking over the defense, and is preparing to carry out sweeping operations in the Jilu border area east of Jinpu Road and the Jizhong area in the west of Jinpu Road, consolidating the law and order on both sides of Jinpu Road.

Major General Qin Yashang had already ordered the troops to pursue in the east and west directions along both sides of the Ziya River, but he knew in his heart that this was China, a big country, not Japan, an island country in the land of projectiles, and the North China Plain was so big, relying on his troops to pursue the real saboteurs, the chance of success was very small. It can be said that there is basically no hope of success!

Major General Qin Yashang went to inspect the large pillbox and three hidden forts at the southern end of the bridge, which were clean and clean, and there was not even a single gun or bullet left, and then looked at the corpses of the soldiers guarding the railway bridge who were fished up from the river, and the bullet boxes and grenades on their bodies were gone.

Major General Qin Yashang immediately understood that the saboteur was not a person, and definitely not a guerrilla group of three or five people, but an army, a well-trained elite combat team!

If it weren't for a well-trained army, they wouldn't have taken all the weapons and ammunition away from the squad guarding the railway bridge!

Fortunately, the saboteurs did not have time to cut the telephone lines, and the communication of the Japanese army was unimpeded, and Major General Qin Yashang did not even use the radio, and directly called the Second Army Headquarters, the North China Front Army Headquarters, and the North China Front Army Railway Department to make a report.

After dark, the troops sent by Major General Qin Yashang to pursue returned to the Ziyahe Railway Bridge one after another, and reported to Major General Qin Yashang that no suspicious targets had been found.

Xiao Siming led the cavalry company to leave, and it would be strange if the little devil could find the target!

Due to the bombing of the Ziya River railway bridge, the lifeline of the Japanese army's transportation of troops and baggage to the Shandong battlefield was once again cut off, and the commander of the North China Front, General Terauchi Shouichi, received the report and flew like thunder, and directly sent a report to the commander of the Second Army, Nishio Shouzo, without mentioning any demeanor, and scolded Lieutenant General Nishio Shouzo for splitting his head and covering his face, and then ordered the railway department to quickly organize forces to rush to repair the Ziya River Bridge, and ordered Deputy Chief of Staff Kawabe Shozo and Chief of the Special Service of the Front Army Kita Seiichi to personally rush to the Ziya River to check on the bombing of the bridge. Command the 5th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Regiment to pursue the saboteurs who blew up the bridge.

Terauchi Shouichi was a Japanese giant, a former minister of war, and one of the culprits of the invasion of China. He never imagined that in the occupied area, and on the heavily defended Jinpu Road, there were two major sabotage incidents of Lianzhen and Ziyahe railway bridges, which caused such great losses.

When the enraged Terauchi Shouichi gave orders to Shozo Kawabe and Kita Makoto, his tone was extremely cold, and he said, "Find the murderers of these two incidents and destroy them!" ”

Kawabe Shozo and Kita Seiichi knew from the tone of the general in the temple that His Excellency the commander was furious!

That night, when the guns and artillery on the front line of Taierzhuang continued, the Chifeng City Department of the Taierzhuang defenders and the Segu Detachment of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army that broke into Taierzhuang were fighting desperately, and the troops hidden in the Lunan Mountains of the Fifth Theater began to attack the flank and rear of the Segu Detachment, the deputy chief of staff of the North China Front, Kawabe Shozo, and the head of the secret service, Xi Duocheng, took a train to the county seat of Qingxian County, and then changed into a car and rushed to the Ziya River, where they joined Major General Qin Yashang, commander of the Fifth Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade.

At this time, the Japanese army transferred a motorboat, which could communicate the traffic on both sides of the Ziya River.

Major General Qin Yashang led the riverside Masisan and Kita Seiichi, first went to see the pillboxes and hidden forts at the north and south ends of the bridge, took a motorboat to the military column with a few half-cut carriages exposed on the water, and finally went to check which recovered corpses.

The devils on the military column were all drowned and choked to death, and the devils in the garrison were all killed. The three old devils took matters into their own hands, looking through one corpse after another, and finally saw the doorway, that is, these imperial warriors were all killed by southern pistol bullets or rifle Arizaka bullets!

In other words, the one who attacked the garrison team and destroyed the Ziya River railway bridge was a unit equipped with Japanese-style weapons!

It may seem absurd to use Japanese-style weapons to fight the Japanese army, but for Shozo Kawabe and Seiichi Kita, it is not uncommon. Because the Eighth Route Army on the Shanxi battlefield used Japanese-style weapons to improve its equipment. The 115th, 120th, and 129th divisions of the Eighth Route Army did not have Japanese-style equipment? In particular, the Eighth Route Army, which killed Ishida Jinzang Dazuo in Nianzigou, destroyed Taiyuan Airport, and attacked and occupied Shouyang County, even dared to use poison gas bombs, which must be all Japanese-style equipment!

As soon as he thought of the headache of the Eighth Route Army troops, Major General Shozo Riverside suddenly thought: Could it be that the troops arrived on the side of the Jinpu Road? Otherwise, how can you explain that the defenders of Lianzhen and the defenders of the Ziya River Railway Bridge are so cleanly broken?

However, there is a doubt in this, that is, if it was really the Eighth Route Army unit that destroyed the Taiyuan Airport to the Jilu border, it would be normal to attack and occupy Lianzhen, but it would not make sense to blow up the Ziya River railway bridge and let go of the remaining soldiers in the stronghold. Because with the combat strength of the Eighth Route Army, it is impossible to let go of a few soldiers in the stronghold, let alone fear the troops of the independent mixed Fifth Brigade from Qingxian and Cangxian to reinforce the troops, they will continue to ambush and expand the results of the battle.

Thinking about it, Hebian Zhengzo felt that it was not a unit that blew up the Ziya River railway bridge and attacked and occupied Lianzhen. The former may indeed be as reported by the 10th Division, and it may be a surprise attack by the regular army of the Nationalist Army in southwest Luxi from the covert north; The latter is more likely to be the work of a small group of special forces. Judging from the fact that there are many pistols in the south, it is a bit like the handiwork of the "Iron and Blood Regiment" that has been frequently active in Tianjin recently. It's really hard to say who did it!

Not only was the river side Shozo unpredictable, but the old spy Kita Seiichi was also at a loss. He couldn't think clearly at all, so many Chinese regular troops were beaten by the army and threw away their armor and ran to the south of the Yellow River, how could anyone dare to brush the tiger's whiskers and go to Jinpu Road to wreak havoc?

This thing is simply incredible! (To be continued.) )
