Why did the little devil arrive at Dongguan so quickly?

It turns out that this is another traitor doing the trick. Originally, there were still a few lines of defense from Li Haiwu to Liaocheng City, but don't forget that these loyal and filial piety groups are all locals. They led these little devils, turned around seven times and eight times, avoided Fan Zhuxian's several lines of defense, and directly killed Dongguan.

And when the enemy rushed into Dongguan, it was directly a car and horse team. The car was full of little devils, and the little devils on the horse team went on a rampage directly with their swords, killing people when they saw them, and cutting them when they saw soldiers.

The troops guarding Dongguan saw that the devils had come in, and after a period of panic, they immediately greeted them with grenades and broadswords. Piles of grenades were immediately dropped from the three-meter-high city wall, which blew up the little devils on their backs, and the streets were full of dead devils, the corpses of the Imperial Army, the Loyal and Filial Piety Regiment and the dead horses. Then the broadsword team rushed down, slashing the little devils everywhere.

The east gate was quickly recaptured by Fan Zhuxian's troops.

As soon as the devil saw that the east gate was gained and lost, it was not stronger than attacking, but surrounded Liaocheng from three sides, southeast and north.

Wang Jinxiang, as the chief of staff, couldn't report at this time, and came to the headquarters to report to Fan Zhuxian and said: "Report to Commander Fan, the people's army can't resist all the way, and the devil has already killed Dongguan." Commander Han told me to sue you, be sure to withdraw from Liaocheng within an hour,"

Wang Jinxiang greatly delayed the time that Han Xing said. Han Xing said that within half an hour of Li Haiwu's time, Fan Zhuxian had to evacuate Liaocheng. It's been a few hours since that time.

"What!" Before Fan Zhuxian could speak, Li Shuchun fired first, "The people's army has three or four thousand people all the way, and they can't resist 300 little devils!" Didn't Han Xing go too, it seems that he really thinks highly of him, how can a dignified deputy commander not even be able to resist the 300 people of the little devils. What a miracle! Anecdote! ”

Fan Zhuxian was very calm, and whispered: "The battlefield is ever-changing, we are not on the front line and do not understand the situation, Li Haiwu may have another reason." Or ask Director Li to withdraw from Liaocheng quickly. ”

Li Shuchun scolded in his mouth, he was very dissatisfied with Han Xing and the People's Army all the way, got into the car, added the accelerator, and sped away from the West Gate to the outside of the city.

Wang Jinxiang saw that if he didn't leave at this time, let alone when, if it was a little later, he was afraid that he would not be able to get out, so he hurriedly said to Fan Zhuxian: "This people's army is too angry all the way, and the three or four thousand people in the dignified state can't carry the three hundred little devils." Am I going to Wang Laixian and ask him to command the troops quickly and resist the little devils! ”

Fan Zhu first thought that at this time, there were no troops to send, and he could only count on Wang Laixian's people's army all the way. So he said to Wang Jinxiang: "Chief of Staff Wang, go and come back quickly, see Wang Laixian, appease him well, don't be in a hurry." As long as he can organize troops and resist devils, he will still be a hero in the future. ”

Wang Jinxiang nodded and hurriedly went out of the city from the west gate.

Fan Zhuxian gathered all the remaining troops and hurriedly wanted to get out of the city from the west gate, but as soon as he got out of the west gate, a team of little devils suddenly appeared, a machine gun, and hit Fan Zhuxian's team. Only then did Fan Zhuxian know that he couldn't get out of the West Gate, and he had to go out of the city through several other gates.

At this time, gunshots rang out at the eastern, southern, and northern gates, and several soldiers came to report that the little devils had already blocked those gates.

Only then did Fan Zhuxian know that the four city gates were blocked by the enemy, and it was impossible to get out of the city, so he had to command this little force under his command to defend the four city gates, waiting for the troops outside the city to respond and wait for the opportunity to break through.

Since there was no plan to fight in the city in advance, the only troops left in the city were the Liaocheng County guerrilla battalion, a company of the second detachment, a pistol company of the headquarters, and a law enforcement team of six or seven hundred people.

By this time, it was 4 p.m. on November 14.

Besides, Han Xing did not enter the city all the way with the retreating civilian army, because according to the original battle plan, if the devils occupied Liaocheng County, they would fight guerrilla attacks with the devils on the periphery.

What's more, the troops of Han Xing and the People's Army all the way have almost lost about it, there are only more than 50 people left in the guard company, and more than 60 people left in the People's Army all the way, and the ammunition is almost exhausted, and there are many wounds, so they can no longer fight.

What puzzled Han Xing was that the devils surrounded Liaocheng faster than them. Fierce gunfire rang out at the east gate, but soon, the little devil was driven out. But after they came out, their tactics were also very decent, and they did not attack the east gate again, but quickly surrounded Liaocheng, making Liaocheng a dead city.

Liaocheng County has a special terrain, that is, there is a moat outside the city. If the four gates were blocked with machine guns, and the moat was a deep river, this helped the devils to surround Liaocheng with the least number of troops.

The so-called city wall is more than three meters high, with large blue bricks on the outside and loess on the inside. In addition, there is a Guangyue Tower in the center of the city, which can be regarded as an inner city. If it was in the era of cold weapons, this wall might have been useful, but now it is close to modern warfare, and even the strongest fortress has been overcome, let alone a circle of not very strong walls.

The devils have long been prepared to attack Liaocheng, with infantry guns and various mortars, as well as tanks and planes.

Han Xing felt that this battle was really getting harder and harder, and his brows furrowed deeply......

Han Xing, these people, just when they were walking around outside the west gate of Liaocheng, suddenly found a few people, who were also wandering around the area. If you look closely, there are all acquaintances, it turns out to be Zhang Linzhi, Yao Dihong, and Zhang Yuguang from the Political Department.

These people also saw Han Xing and hurriedly ran over. Han Xing asked them, "What are you doing here, why don't you retreat to the west of the city quickly." ”

Zhang Linzhi said anxiously: "Commissioner Fan hasn't come out yet, he is surrounded in the city!" ”

When Han Xing heard this, he was very anxious in his heart, but after thinking about it from another angle, he also felt that history is history, although he had made a lot of efforts, and repeatedly advised Fan Zhuxian to get out of this dangerous city as soon as possible, but he was still careless and trapped in the city.

Shen Lanzhai was also a little puzzled and said, "We have already informed Fan Zhuxian and told him to retreat early, why hasn't he left yet!" Then he asked the staff officer beside him, "Did you really deliver the letter?" ”

The staff officer replied: "Report to Commander Shen, my subordinates dare not disobey the order, I have already reported this matter to Wang Jinxiang." ”

Han Xing stomped his feet and said to Shen Lanzhai, "Tell Wang Jinxiang to take care of a!" Wang Jinxiang is wishing that Commissioner Fan is trapped in the city! ”

But it has come to this point, and it is useless to complain. Han Xing had no choice but to say to Zhang Linzhi: "Let's talk about it, what should I do about this?" ”

Zhang Linzhi is the director of the political department, one of the important leaders sent to Luxi by the party, and he has to be in charge of some major affairs. He said: "At present, there is no good way but to mobilize all the troops, attack the devils, and rescue Commissioner Fan." In addition, there are too few people in the city, so go into the city to help Commissioner Fan defend the city. ”

Han Xing thought that there was no way out, so he had to nod and say, "Okay, then I'll go into the city again, Director Zhang is responsible for summoning the troops outside the city and concentrating on attacking the city. ”

Zhang Linzhi said to Han Xing: "You are the deputy commander of the guerrillas, you can't go in, it's better to organize troops outside the city." It is better for the people of our political department to go in, we are familiar with the situation in the city, and it is better to organize resistance. ”

Han Xing shook his head and said, "That's not good, I'm a soldier, and if I talk about fighting, I'm not a layman." But you are all literati, you can engage in politics, lead troops to fight, I'm afraid you don't have me! ”

Zhang Linzhi has a deeper consideration, when Zhang Weihan left, he had already explained to the political department, although Han Xing's background is complicated, but he is still a trustworthy and loyal friend, and he must do his best to protect this talent.

Therefore, Zhang Linzhi said calmly: "Commander Han, your task is also very heavy, outside the city, you can play it." And once you enter the city, no matter how big your skills are, you can't use them, don't you say? This matter is settled! ”

Han Xing also thought about it, if he entered the city, he would be dead. If he is an ordinary soldier, he can kill as much as he wants, and serve the country with his body, even if he can't save Fan Zhuxian, he will do his meager strength. But now I have too many secrets and too many heavy responsibilities, and others can't interfere in these things at all.

Han Xing didn't argue anymore, so he had to say, "Director Zhang, how many people do you want?" ”

Zhang Linzhi looked at these people around Han Xing, these hundred or so people, after a big battle, they died nine times, but the pride on their faces was undiminished, but they were injured. Scattering these people into the city like sesame salt may not have a great effect, but staying by Han Xing's side and protecting Han Xing may have a greater effect in the future.

Zhang Linzhi said: "You don't need these people, just open a bloody road and send us to the city." ”

Han Xing did not fight again, history is history, and if he put these people in, he would not be able to save Fan Zhuxian, so it was better to leave these people behind, and they would play a greater role in the battlefield of resistance against Japan in the future.

So, Han Xing yelled and gave an order: "Company Commander Zhang, open a road and send the people from the political department to the city." ”

The people of the political department were just about to set off, and the deputy director Yao Dihong gave his opinion again, and he said to Zhang Linzhi: "Director Zhang, the main leaders of our political department are here, if they all enter the city, if they are all hung up, what should the political department do?" I don't think it's better for you to stay here, commanding the detachments outside the city, Senator Zhang and I will enter the city, with the two of us, we will all represent the political department. In this way, no matter which party suffers, can still keep people? ”

Zhang Linzhi thought about it for a while and said, "You're right, otherwise, I'll go in!" ”

Yao Dihong said: "You are familiar with the overall situation, it is better for you to stay outside the city." ”

Zhang Yuguang also said: "I agree with Deputy Director Yao's opinion, Deputy Director Yao and I went into the city, and Director Zhang continued to command people from all walks of life outside the city. ”

Zhang Linzhi didn't fight anymore, but held the hands of the two people tightly and said, "Okay, you must take care." When I saw Fan Zhuxian, I said that I said it, and while the enemy was besieging the city, he urged him to quickly break out of the city. Once the enemy is tightly surrounded, it will be passive, and it will have to wait for help. ”
