readx; Gunshots rang out inside and outside Tengxian County. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
A large group of trucks rushed into the loosely defended outer line of the Japanese army like a gale. In the explosion of machine guns, submachine guns, and grenades, those Chinese officers and soldiers wearing steel helmets and holding all kinds of light and heavy weapons appeared in front of those invincible soldiers like invincible gods of war.
And the huge military flag always fluttered in the ranks:
Tiger Ben!
The trucks in front of them used all kinds of firepower to fight their way to the death, and all kinds of vehicles followed closely behind them quickly followed and broke through.
Under such a whirlwind assault, one after another of the defense lines of the army were quickly overwhelmed, and the vehicles that rushed to the front had already rushed into Teng County in a short period of time.
This was a blow that the army did not expect at all, and the army, which was already sure to win, quickly became chaotic
The convoy didn't have a relationship with the army, they had only one purpose:
Rescue Wang Mingzhang and rescue your brothers!
A truck in front of it stopped with a "gac", and the brothers on it jumped down, and as soon as they hit the ground, the guns in their hands rang out, and grenades were thrown like raindrops, exploding one after another among the Japanese troops who tried to surround them
Immediately, a sedan also stopped abruptly, the door opened, Gao Fei and Lao Hei flashed out of the car, and the two submachine guns in their hands swept out the bullets like a storm.
Rushing to the forefront with the brethren will always be the legendary [***] officer:
Goofy!
"Phineas! Xicheng Tower! West Castle Tower! ”
Suozhu hurriedly ran over and shouted one after another: "I asked the brothers of the 122nd Division just now, the division headquarters is fighting fiercely in the direction of Xichenglou!" ”
Gao Fei's eyes flashed with determination, and he waved the gun in his hand: "Brothers, build a defensive line on the spot to block the advance of the army, Lao Hei, be responsible for commanding!" Lock the pillars, with the guard company, come with me!
Those brothers used the vehicle as a defensive position, desperately blocking the counterattack of the Yue army, and a platoon of guards and brothers, following Gao Fei, quickly advanced to the defense line of Xichenglou.
At this time, Wang Mingzhang has also reached the most critical juncture.
At this time, Wang Mingzhang had already led his brothers down from the Xicheng Tower, all the way to the vicinity of the power plant to make a final resistance.
No one wants to go back alive anymore, and everyone is ready to give their lives here. Even Wang Mingzhang threw himself into battle with a weapon!
There were less than forty people gathered around, and this was the last power that Wang Mingzhang could use. However, Wang Mingzhang and his brothers did not have any fear.
The devil rushed up, screaming and launching one charge after another, but Wang Mingzhang and the guards around him gritted their teeth and repelled the enemy's charge again and again.
The bullets were finished, the grenades were thrown, but the brothers, together with Wang Mingzhang, relied on the big blades to repel the enemy's four attacks one after another!
Majestic mountains and rivers, pneumatic clouds!
Life should be a hero, and death is also a ghost!
At this point, there is no difference between life and death!
Suddenly, a mortar appeared on the opposite side, and Wang Mingzhang and the brothers glanced at each other and smiled.
Farewell, the land I love the most; Farewell, country I love the most!
Brothers, we have done our best and shed our last blood!
Wang Mingzhang saw that the artillery shells of the Yue army were whistling towards here; Wang Mingzhang saw that the brothers regarded death as if they were home!
Wang Mingzhang also saw that the blood of the best sons and daughters of the Chinese nation was boiling!
China will be invincible!
Hooray, China! Long live, Chinese nation!
Shells, drowning everything around
Shots rang out behind them, and the brothers had already broken through the Japanese army's defenses.
But what appeared in front of Gao Fei was a piece of ruins, a sea of fire, and he was still a step too late after all.
A soldier covered in blood came out of the rubble. When he saw Gao Fei clearly, he raised his hand with difficulty and saluted a military salute, and then his voice choked:
"I am Wang Mingzhang, commander of the 122nd Division, and Li Shaokun, the captain of the guard!"
"Gao Fei, commander of the 26th Regiment of the 76th Brigade of the 151st Division!"
Gao Fei pursed his lips tightly: "Senior Master Wang, where is it?" ”
"Division Commander Wang is here, and our division commander has been fighting!" Tears slowly flowed down the corners of Li Shaokun's eyes, but he tried his best to control it, and walked towards the power plant step by step with Gao Fei.
Goofy saw it, Goofy saw it clearly!
A general wearing gold epaulettes, leaning against a wall, standing tall! In his hand, he still holds a big knife, and he maintains a posture of attack at any time!
His body was covered with shrapnel, and his blood had coagulated, but the hero's body was still standing!
Commander of the 122nd Division of the National Revolutionary Army, Wang Mingzhang!
Li Shaokun suddenly knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "Division commander, reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming!" Division commander, open your eyes and see, reinforcements are really coming! Wake up, wake up, I beg you! ”
However, the teacher he loved would never wake up
Heroes, have been put to rest; Heroes, eternal!
Gao Fei looked at it in a daze, he was late, and he was still a step late after all.
I was desperately running around and breaking through, but after all, I was still a step too late!
Even if the General Headquarters could give itself the order to reinforce Teng County an hour earlier, even if Wang Mingzhang and his brothers could buy some more time, then everything would be different!
"Captain Gao, Commander Gao!" Li Shaokun suddenly stood up: "What about Tang Enbo? Where are Towneberg's reinforcements? Why have we held out so much and not seen reinforcements? Why! Why! Why! ”
Three "whys" in a row, so that Gao Fei did not know how to answer this hot-blooded and loyal soldier.
What about reinforcements? Where exactly are the reinforcements? Why is it that in the entire battlefield, only oneself has come to reinforce Teng County? Why? Why? Why?
But Goofy knows that something, no, history has changed!
Although he did not save Wang Mingzhang after all, although Wang Mingzhang has been martyred, history has really changed!
Wang Mingzhang should have died in Xichenglou, but he stubbornly survived to the power plant. Teng County, it should have completely fallen into the hands of the Yue Army by now, but now here, there are still a large number of [***] teams fighting!
History, here quietly went to another path!
And all this is because of Gao Fei, the emergence of people who should not belong to this era!
Goofy's heart was sad, angry, and painful, but he had never been so full of confidence. He knows that he may be insignificant, but he is influencing history little by little and changing history.
Myself, although I failed this time, but this is a defeat in victory, since I can affect the battle of Tengxian, I can also affect more and more things in the future!
One person, sometimes enough to change history!
Gao Fei pursed his lips, and then said in a firm voice that he had never said before: "Brothers, take the body of Master Wang, kill it, and we will kill it again!" ”
"Kill! Kill!! Kill!!! ”
The brothers waved their guns and let out an earth-shattering roar!
This is the 27th year of the Republic of China, March 17, 1938.
History, on this day, took a different path.
And the man who changed all this, his name is:
Goofy!
List of officers of the 122nd Division who died from Xichenglou to Xiguan Power Plant:
Wang Mingzhang, former commander-in-chief of the enemy, 41st army commander, and lieutenant general of the 122nd Division; Zhao Weibin, Chief of Staff of the 122nd Division; Colonel Adjutant Rosinjia; Major Staff Officer Fan Chengmo and Xie Dachang; Zou Shaomeng, Chief of Staff of the 124th Division; Colonel Adjutant Fu [***]; Colonel Miao Jiawen, Director of Political Training; Major Staff Officer Zhang Chong
The name of the hero is immortal!
In March 1938, Sun Zhen, commander-in-chief of the 22nd Group Army, recorded in his "Detailed Report on the Battle of Tengxian" that more than 320 officers were killed or wounded, more than 1,500 soldiers were killed, and more than 5,000 were wounded. More than 3,000 officers and men were killed and more than 4,000 officers and men were wounded. The 41st Army accounted for three-quarters of the total casualties.
The battle to defend Tengxian County began on March 14 when the army attacked the outer positions of Puyang Mountain, and ended on the 18th when the army completely occupied the county seat, which lasted four and a half days. If we only count from the fifteen days when the army surrounded the county seat, the time is three and a half days. What a precious few days! If it were not for these few days, the army would have been able to occupy Guanqiao on the 15th, or no later than the 16th, and cut the throat of Teng County from the north of Lincheng. In this way, Townenbo's legion will be blocked south of the city.
If it weren't for these few days, Ryosuke Isoya and the 10th Division would have arrived in Taierzhuang a few days earlier and blocked it south of the canal before Sun Lianzhong's corps could enter Taierzhuang.
Even, Ryosuke Isoya could divide his troops to defeat Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun to relieve the siege of Linyi of the Fifth Division, and the two elite divisions would converge and point to Xuzhou.
That is to say, if there are no these few days, the Taierzhuang victory that shocked China and foreign countries in the future will no longer exist! It's like a play, there is no prologue, where is the victory? What was originally the stage of the Battle of Taierzhuang where will the battle situation develop? No one can tell.
However, after the Battle of Tengxian, when the 22nd Group Army was being contained and organized, the Theater Commander's Department transmitted a telegram from the Supreme Command, the gist of which was: The 41st Army held on to Tengxian and failed to complete its mission. Towne's response was ineffective and he was reprimanded.
Receiving the telegram, those in the group army who knew about it were all indignant. Later, another call came to cancel the previous call.
After learning of Wang Mingzhang's death, Sun Zhen personally telegraphed Gao Fei: "We should find a way to transport Master Wang's body back at all costs to comfort the loyal soul." ”
And Goofy, he did that too.
He and his 151st regiment, although they did not rescue Wang Mingzhang, brought back the bones of the heroes, and the soldiers who had been scattered in Tengxian County before!
