Chapter 125: No Waste Required
Shuichi Takano is a typical professional soldier, he graduated from the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer Military Academy and the Army University, and then was sent to study at the German Military Academy.
He has a very good ability, and it was the first brigade of Takano Shuichi who broke through the Niangzi Pass position, and it can be said that he is a member of the 20th Division.
The commander of the 20th Division, Kawagishi Fumizaburo, personally named Takano Shuichi to be stationed in Pingding County, obviously he had great confidence in Takano Shuichi.
Kawagishi Bunzaburo felt that using Shuichi Takano to fight against Sun Weiguo, even if he couldn't completely annihilate the county brigade led by Sun Weiguo, it would bring heavy damage to the county brigade.
Hideichi Takano came to Pingding County overnight, and after arriving in Pingding County, he began to inspect the troops assigned to him by the First Army.
These units are elite units, whether they are artillery or armored, and they all have ample combat experience.
At present, Takano Shuichi has nearly 2,000 Japanese troops in his hands, including more than 500 artillery units, more than 1,000 infantry, more than 100 armored troops and more than 100 cavalry units.
With these elite troops, Takano Shuichi was very excited in his heart, and now almost commanded nearly a wing of Japanese puppet army troops.
According to what Takano Shuichi learned, the county brigade led by Sun Weiguo suffered heavy casualties after this operation, and now Sun Weiguo has less than 1,000 troops in his hands.
He has more than 3,000 puppet army units in his hands, including artillery, cavalry, infantry, and armored troops, while his opponent has less than 1,000 troops, and this less than 1,000 troops have just gone through fierce battles.
If they were any arrogant Japanese officers, they would not be willing to stay in the county seat.
Sun Weiguo was a big problem for the Japanese army, and even the North China Front Army Command knew how difficult this Sun Weiguo was.
If Sun Weiguo can be captured or killed alive and his troops are all annihilated, this credit is very great.
Thinking of these things, Hideichi Takano glanced at his epaulettes, and he felt that Osa's rank should not be far from him.
"Taijun, the detective team has just been formed, if you start an operation at this time, I'm afraid there will be no gains. Sun Weiguo's troops probably had already fled to Hebei Province, and they did not dare to be enemies of the imperial army. ”
Wang Mazi didn't expect Takano Shuichi to ask him to scout the situation of Sun Weiguo's troops now, and he said with a face full of embarrassment.
Previously, the Eighth Route Army recovered Pingding County and killed a group of traitors, and there are not many people who are traitors at present.
Wang Mazi's detective team is less than 100 people, and these people are willing to run rampant in Pingding County, let them go outside the county to find out the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army, they don't have the courage.
"Wang Sang, you have no room to bargain with me, you must carry out my orders, otherwise you will die. I'll give you two days, if you don't have the slightest gain, you, the deputy county magistrate and the captain of the detective team, don't do it, the imperial army doesn't need waste, you understand? ”
As soon as Gao Ye Xiu heard Wang Mazi's words, his face became angry, and he looked at Wang Mazi coldly with a pair of eyes, and said in a cold tone.
"Taijun, I'll do it right away, I won't let you down." Wang Mazi said hurriedly.
He has served many Japanese masters, and Wang Mazi also knows that these Japanese people will turn their faces when they say that they will turn their faces, and they will not have any feelings.
Wang Mazi, who was afraid of being cut off by Hideichi Takano, hurriedly agreed, he quickly left the Japanese garrison headquarters, and he began to deploy detective team members to investigate the situation.
After seeing Wang Mazi leave, Takano Shuichi was not idle, he immediately asked the signal corps to find all the officers of the Japanese army, and he began to hold a combat meeting.
In front of them, the Japanese puppet army troops were all concentrated in the county seat, and the towns in Pingding County were not garrisoned by any troops.
After all the officers of the Japanese puppet army came to the headquarters, Takano Shu gave the order at the beginning.
He did not deploy troops according to the practice of the Japanese army and the puppet army stationed in the town, he gathered the Japanese troops in the county town, and he scattered the puppet army troops in various towns, and at the same time Takano Shuichi gave strict instructions to these puppet troops.
If these puppet armies fled without resistance after being attacked by the Eighth Route Army, then Takano Shuichi would kill all the defeated puppet armies.
Zhu Shiqiang, the commander of the puppet regiment, turned pale, his regiment commander was left in the county seat by Takano Shuichi, and his troops of more than 1,300 people were scattered in various small towns, which made Zhu Shiqiang very helpless, he knew that if his troops were exhausted, the Japanese would not continue to raise him.
The commander of the Japanese army in Pingding County, Takano Shuichi Nakasa, was actively deploying, but he planned to have a good fight with Sun Weiguo's troops.
Sun Weiguo didn't know the situation here at all, and the county brigade was still recuperating at this time.
The soldiers built some houses in Nanzhuang Village, and the wounded had a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
At the same time, the military sub-district has also dispatched a communications corps, and the military sub-district has already begun to transfer some veterans, who will soon come to the county brigade.
With these veterans, the county brigade was able to quickly regain its combat effectiveness.
Time passed quickly, two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Forty-five veterans sent by the military sub-district had already arrived in Nanzhuang Village, and the cavalry battalion was the first to complete the formation according to Sun Weiguo's order.
The cavalry battalion completed its rest, and they began to take charge of the security of Nanzhuang Village, while the infantry battalion also began to replenish new recruits according to Sun Weiguo's orders.
Cavalry battalion, infantry battalion, artillery battalion, Sun Weiguo intends to supplement the county brigade in this order.
Now that the cavalry battalion has completed its rest and reorganization, Sun Weiguo's waist situation is much better, and he plans to go to the headquarters of the Jinchaji Military Region in Hebei Province.
"The work of the infantry battalion can be handed over to Hong Zhiqiang, and Chen Yang can assist him. Captain, political commissar, I will go and return quickly, you don't have to worry about my situation, in addition, the reconnaissance squad must stay, they must pay attention to the movements of the Japanese army at all times. If the Japanese army attacks Nanzhuang Village, avoid them for the time being, and don't fight with them. ”
On New Year's Day 1938, Sun Weiguo decided to go to the Jinchaji Military Region Headquarters.
When he left Nanzhuang Village, Sun Weiguo could be said to have carefully explained to Zhong Jian and Shen Wei, and he was very uneasy.
But Commander Nie's summons, Sun Weiguo must rush over, he has been delayed for a few days, and it is inevitable that there will be some bad things if he drags it out.
"Weiguo, isn't it a little too little for a cavalry squad to go to Hebei Province with you, can they protect your safety?"
Zhong Jian looked at Sun Weiguo, who was riding on a war horse, and he said worriedly.
"Captain, don't worry, the little devil who can kill me hasn't been born yet." Sun Weiguo said with a smile, and then he whipped his war horse and quickly left Nanzhuang Village.
