January 31, 1938 was the first day of the Lunar New Year of that year, due to the escort of the Sichuan army, the enemy of Zou County and Liangxiadian did not dare to disturb the south, and the soldiers and civilians of Lunan had a peaceful and peaceful Spring Festival. As soon as the Spring Festival passed, the air suddenly became tense.

Lieutenant General Gangzaki, the acting commander of the enemy's North China Front in Tianjin, had come to Jinan to take command of the Shandong Army a few years ago.

The Shandong army began to concentrate on Tai'an. The Zou County army replaced its new commander, Chiaki Shigeto, and increased its troops by more than 1,500. Along the northern section of Jinpu Road, military supplies, including heavy artillery, ammunition, horses, and soldiers, are frequently transferred.

By sea, four steamers, including the 3rd Tongmaru, the 5th Tongmaru, the Takamaru, and the Riyama Maru, arrived in Tianjin from Yueben and brought a large number of military supplies and equipment to the front.

Intelligence from different channels shows that Kou is increasing troops in the northern section of Jinpu Road, and it seems that a big move is coming.

In view of this situation, the 22 nd Group Army also stepped up its military operations against the Japanese army.

The rails on the railroad were removed, and one part was used to build fortifications; The other was used to make thousands of large knives and distributed them to the soldiers.

At that time, the 125th Division advanced to the north and deployed in the area of Xiangcheng and Puyang Mountain north of the Jiehe River as the front of our army's defense. The northernmost fortifications were only one and a half kilometers away from the Liangxiadian position where the army was entrenched.

The 740th Regiment of the 124th Division was deployed at Dongshenjing and Shiqiang Village, 20 kilometers northwest of Tengxian County, as the left flank of the 125th Division, and prepared to cut off the connection between Jining and the Yue Army in Zou County.

The 127th Division was in frontal depth and stationed in Beishahe and Jiehe.

It is located in the periphery of Teng County in various parts. The three divisions of the 127th, 122nd and 124th Divisions were stationed in Tengxian County, with Wang Mingzhang, commander of the 122nd Division, as the acting commander of the 41st Army and concurrently the commander-in-chief of the former enemy. The general headquarters of the group army is stationed in Lincheng, 40 kilometers south of Tengxian County.

Each division constantly sent small units to guerrilla attacks around Liangxiadian and between Tai'an and Zou counties, and constantly ambushed enemy convoys and stragglers in enemy-occupied areas. The enemy who had been in the store was cowered in the stronghold, and he did not dare to act rashly for a while.

The most beautiful ambush was the one in which a unit of the 127th Division was in Thailand and Zou.

Feng Yusen, a spy squad leader of the 757th Regiment of the 127th Division, was very alert and sharp-tongued. One day, he disguised himself as a local, took a "certificate of good citizenship", was covered by two local people, pretended to sell firewood, deceived the devil's sentry, and infiltrated the heavily guarded Zou County.

The three of them wandered around the city all day, going to the teahouse, going to the restaurant, visiting relatives, meeting friends, and turning around three times or twice, and they actually heard the shocking news that the devils and the enemy puppet regime in Zou County would hold a "gathering of the good people of the imperial army" in three days. At that time, the devils stationed in Qufu will send important personnel to participate.

When Detective Feng Yusen heard the news, he immediately rushed back to the army to report. When the battalion commander Chen Jiuzhang heard this, he was overjoyed and immediately reported to the regiment commander Wang Wenba and asked to lead his troops to an ambush. Immediately, the company and platoon commanders were convened to discuss and draw up a battle plan. At the same time, the locals were invited to analyze the terrain together, and finally Xiaoxue Village, not far from Zou County, was selected as the ambush site. This place is the only way from Qufu to Zou County, the highway passes through the village from east to west, the concealment conditions are good, it is easy to ambush, and it is easy to deploy troops. In addition, the regimental commander mastered that the other two battalions were in the vicinity of the selection of important places to respond.

The troops blocked the news near Zou County and hid it for two days. Three days later, before dawn, the troops entered the ambush site, and a company of soldiers hid in several houses near the village and in the reeds. It happened that there were two abandoned earthen bunkers in the village, about 100 meters apart, and two reinforced squads were selected, led by platoon commander Pan Jinren, to infiltrate these two bunkers respectively as the first line to attack the enemy. At the same time, barricades were set up on the roads, and the villagers were told to close their gates and not to go out. After the deployment is completed, it enters a state of combat readiness.

After dawn, it was foggy and there was no one on the other side. Everyone was anxious: "I don't know if the devil is still coming?" ”

Fortunately, after 9 o'clock, the sun came out, and the fog finally cleared. After a while, the troops outside the village had heard the sound of motors coming from the east, and everyone was nervous again. Company Commander Liao Zhangpu Yuan glared at his eyes and held the pistol tightly: "Order, calm down, wait for the village to start first!" ”

Immediately after, a truck appeared in view, with more than twenty devils leaning on either side of the trunk, bayonets flashing in the sun. At the front of the vehicle was a crooked machine gun, on which two shooters were crouched. In the back of the truck, a small car painted in anti-aircraft color appeared. The two cars drove one after the other, and in an instant, they drove under the muzzle of the ambush, and entered the village like a puff of smoke!

The road in the village narrowed abruptly, and the curvature increased, and the street of every house was closed, and the truck seemed to feel that the situation was different, and suddenly braked the car, and wanted to turn around and reverse, but the road was too narrow, and there were piles of earth and tiles, and it was not easy to move. After a moment's hesitation, he suddenly increased the throttle and rushed forward.

The officers and soldiers in the ambush in the bunker saw all this clearly, and when the devil's truck stopped, they all thought that the devil was going to turn around and exit, and then saw the truck increase the throttle and rush in, knowing that the battle was about to begin, everyone calmed down, aimed at the enemy, and only waited for the car to enter the ambush circle. In an instant, when the truck drove in front of the East Bunker, the car also drove past the East Bunker, and the two cars completely entered the ambush circle, suddenly several grenades flew out of the East Bunker, "boom, boom" A few loud sounds, the car was hit, and stopped suddenly.

Three devils with pistols jumped out of the car at once, shooting "bang, bang" indiscriminately. Although our army did not have machine guns, more than a dozen rifles opened fire in the pillbox, and the bullets were like flying locusts, and the three devils could not dodge, and they were all knocked to the ground. Immediately afterwards, several grenades exploded in the west, the truck caught fire and burned, and the devils in the car jumped down one after another, relying on the burning car to raise their guns and shoot back, but they could not find the target. The doors of the houses in the village were closed, and there was no place to hide, and it soon became a mess. At this time, our gunfire was loud, and the troops in ambush inside the two pillboxes and outside the village opened fire together, and there was a crossfire net, and the seven devils suddenly became dead ghosts under the gun. The remaining devils broke open a private house, climbed over several courtyard walls, and escaped from the village, not caring about life and death behind, and fled for their lives.

In order to prevent the devils from escaping again, the battalion commander commanded the ambushed troops to quickly surround the whole village and search the car. When approaching the car, a Chinese boy dressed like a rich man suddenly crawled out from under the car, and when he saw my soldiers rushing with guns, and saw several devils covered in blood on the ground, he suddenly let out a "wow" and began to cry with trembling. The inexplicable soldier hurriedly held the boy down and searched the car again. Only then did I find that there was an old devil in the car with thick eyebrows and a big mouth, a mustache, wearing a yellow tweed military uniform, a war knife hanging from his waist, and a bleeding face on his face, and his head had been pierced by a rifle bullet, and blood was flowing from two bullet holes in and out, and he had already died of exhaustion.

The searching soldier quickly removed the devil's sword and moved away, but he didn't know that the golden spur on the devil's riding boots should also be removed. Later, because the golden spurs on the boots of the devils proved his identity, he could only write "killed eleven devils" in the "Battle Details", which was both praised and criticized. At this time, I knew that only the military boots and spurs of the devil general were golden, and the search soldiers who rushed to the car saw the golden spurs of this devil, but they didn't know that there was such a rule, and they missed a heaven-shattering jackpot in a daze.

The ambush was a complete victory, killing 11 devils, seizing more than 10 rifles, pistols, a crooked machine gun, and one special prisoner, without any casualties on our side.

That night, I carefully questioned the young man who got out of the car, and found out that the results of the battle were so brilliant that he accidentally arrested a big guy.

It turned out that this young doll was called You Lun, only 12 years old, in the first grade of high school in Qufu, living in Qufu County, with parents and a wealthy family. The devil who was killed in the car was Eijiro Tajima, the commander of the Major General Brigade in Qufu, who lived in the front yard of the Youjia.

That day happened to be a Sunday, You Lun was playing at home, Sato saw You Lun when he got on the bus and set off, so he beckoned You Lun to get on the bus "Great Friendship of the Imperial Army" and go to Zou County to play together, in order to show "Greater East Asia Co-prosperity and Friendship", and told You Lun's parents that they would return with You Lun that day. It seems that this Tajima is too confident, and he did not expect to suffer such a catastrophe in his occupied area, and the "party" did not succeed, but he first sent himself to the Yasukuni Shrine and You Lun to the hands of the Sichuan soldiers, and almost lost his life.

Later, You Lun was sent to the regiment headquarters for two days, crying to go home, and the regiment commander ordered to find two fellow villagers to send You Lun back to Qufu.

That day was really a disaster for the devil. It was because he had waited for a long time for the brigade commander to arrive, and at about 2 p.m., a truck came out of Zou County and searched north along the highway.

This time, it was the turn of the troops on the periphery of Xiaoxue Village to show their skills. The truck walked a certain distance to the south of Xiaoxue Village, and found that the road had been damaged, so it immediately stopped. After getting out of the car, a few devils looked around, ready to move the big rocks in the middle of the road. My ambushed troops saw that the time had come and immediately signaled. At the same time as the ambush in the middle opened heavy fire, the ambushes at both ends immediately rushed onto the road, cutting off the path for the devils to advance and retreat, and surrounded the enemy!

The devils in the car jumped out of the car one after another to return fire, and the troops who were ambushed by me blew up their horses with a burst of grenades. A total of 25 enemy soldiers were killed, and one light machine gun, 18 rifles, a large truck, a radio station, a set of military maps, and a map of communication were captured, and there were no casualties on our side.

Three days later, local villagers reported that Yue Kou held a "mourning meeting" in Qufu and Zou counties at the same time to see off the brigade commander Tian Dao.

According to the battle report:

The 10th Division of the 2nd Army of our Army, which was active on the Jinpu Road, entered the Yanzhou, Jining, and Zouxian areas in February 13 of Showa 13, and the outline of the establishment of the 10th Division in mid-February was as follows: Major General Tajima, commander of the 33rd Infantry Brigade, Major General Seya, commander of the detachment, was transferred regularly on 1 March, and Major General Tajima, who succeeded him as commander of the 33rd Infantry Brigade, was absent and arrived in Yanzhou on 8 March.

This material shows that Major General Tajima was still compiling in mid-February, and on 1 March, he was only missing, which is enough to prove that Major General Tajima had been killed in battle.

Previously, due to the lack of proof from the Golden Spur, the brilliant achievements of Liao Zhangpu Company of the Chen Jiuzhang Battalion of the 757th Regiment of the 127th Division of the 22nd Group Army of the Sichuan Army in ambushing the commander of the Major General Brigade of the Japanese Army in Xiaoxue Village on the Zouqu Highway did not receive enough publicity and commendation!

This can be regarded as a small regret in the Sichuan army!
