Chapter 231: Approaching Chenjia Village
The situation in Zaozhuang is critical, and the troops supported by the Little Devil Railway have suffered heavy losses. www.biquge.info Yoshio Shinozuka had no choice but to send his cavalry wing and dozens of trucks to transport three combat squadrons to reinforce Zaozhuang at great speed, and the whole process was commanded by the cavalry wing commander Morita Masasao.
After receiving the order, Morita Shozo thought that this was an opportunity to make meritorious achievements, so he rushed to Zaozhuang with his cavalry and dozens of trucks non-stop.
But when they were halfway there, they bleed. Although the casualties were not as large as the railway support, it really hurt Morita Shozo.
When Chen Jiye set up the plan, he knew that if he wanted to kill the 63rd Wing and retreat, he had to block the reinforcements sent by the Japanese army from the three directions of Tengxian, Lincheng, and Yixian. Otherwise, if you can't steal chickens, you will definitely lose rice.
As long as the guns in Zaozhuang were fired, as long as the Japanese troops in the three counties were not stupid, they would quickly reinforce them by rail.
Of course, Chen Jiye had long understood that he would fight with the Japanese army, so when he was dominating Zaozhuang, especially after recruiting Fu Yuncong, he never stopped the production and hoarding of explosives and mines. Up to now, Chen Jiye's stockpiled explosives and mines have no problem blowing up 10 county towns.
So in the face of the powerful Japanese army, Chen Jiye decided to use a large number of mines and explosives to buy him time.
Morita Shozo thought that the Shina people consumed a lot of explosives on the railway, so he didn't think that they would encounter the same situation, and thought that even if there were, there would be very few, so he led the team of people and horses to plunge into the death trap set by Yang Sancai.
When the detonator is pressed, the planted mine explosives explode rapidly.
"Boom boom boom~" A large number of mines and explosives were detonated, and the whole scene was like a big earthquake, shaking the earthquake.
The galloping cavalry wing was suddenly exploded, and in an instant, the people who exploded turned on their backs, and the horses roared.
After the explosion, the reinforcements led by Morita Shozo lost more than 500 horses, and the number of casualties of cavalry exceeded 600. You can imagine how ugly Morita Shozo's expression was when he saw it.
Of course, a few trucks were blown up, but these casualties were nothing compared to the casualties of the cavalry.
After Morita Shozo roughly watched the loss, his face turned pale, and his heart was dripping blood.
You must know that in the past, when he fought with the troops of the * army of the country of China, his cavalry was absolutely invincible and invincible. Which appearance is not to kill countless enemies, and his own losses are very small.
With a single explosion, hundreds of people were lost, and even before he could engage the enemy, Morita Shozo's brain could not accept this fact in an instant.
Morita Shozo knew that the reality could not be changed, so he angrily ordered the soldiers on the truck to get out of the car and annihilate the enemy.
"Attack!"
Yang San knew that most of the Japanese troops were cavalry, and the place he chose was naturally a place where it was difficult for cavalry to exert their combat effectiveness, so Morita Shozo could only order the infantry in the truck to attack.
As soon as the little devil in the truck got out of the car, the three squadron leaders pulled out their command knives in anger and shouted.
"Kill, give!" Immediately following hundreds of brainless little devils heard the order, they charged with guns.
Although Yang Sancai had the ability to block the attack of these little devils, he still deeply remembered what Chen Jiye said, there was no absolute firepower suppression, don't fight a tough battle with the little devils, so Yang San ordered everyone to evacuate quickly.
The little devils of the three squadrons, Yang Sancai with murderous intent, was where they stayed just now, but they only looked at the marks left by a large number of people, and found nothing.
Killing and injuring so many comrades of the little devils, these little devils were naturally unwilling, and immediately continued to pursue with their guns and the imprints.
But just a few steps after running, a soldier stumbled under his feet. But now the little devil was carried away by the emotion of revenge, and he didn't bother to continue the pursuit at all.
But before the little devil could take the third step, a series of explosions occurred around him.
"Boom Boom Boom~"
Similarly, there are other soldiers who have stepped on a series of treacherous mines, and there are constantly little devils who are killed and injured.
After the explosion, the three squadron leaders with gray faces got up from the ground, and when they saw the soldiers who had died in blood, they felt dumb and couldn't tell if they were suffering from Coptis chinensis.
After suffering two big losses in a row, the three squadron leaders decided to return with their soldiers to avoid another loss.
Morita Shozo saw that there were no gains, but three squadrons with no small losses, and his nose kept spewing hot air.
The enemy who ambushed them ran away, and the situation of the 63rd Wing of Zaozhuang had reached an urgent time, Morita Shozo gritted his teeth and cursed a few words, and immediately asked the troops to hurry up.
But because of this explosion, the soldiers led by Morita Shozo became very cautious, and the speed of the entire marching team slowed down a lot unconsciously.
However, this is not the end, but the beginning of Morita Shozo's troubles.
On the way to the march, as long as Morita Shozo led his troops in the direction of Zaozhuang, bullets would be fired at them, and these bullets would take the lives of his soldiers very accurately without a sound.
What's even worse is that Morita Shozo's cavalry couldn't help but rush out to chase, but they forgot the previous lesson and stepped on the mine again, killing and wounding dozens of people.
Or, if a mine is suddenly stepped on during the march, the entire unit has to stop and clear the mines, etc. But after the demining was completed, he found that there was only this mine nearby, and Morita was speechless.
Along the way, Morita Shozo felt that the fire in his heart was about to burn him to death.
Although Morita Shozo wanted to leave the three squadrons on the truck and lead his wing to Zaozhuang alone, when he thought of the fate of the cavalry wing of the Fifth Division, Morita Shozo still controlled his impulse. Otherwise, if you rush into Zaozhuang, you will be slaughtered by the despicable people of Zaozhuang.
Morita Shozo's troops walked very slowly, much slower than the infantry, causing an infantry brigade behind to catch up.
At the same time, the signal corps also sent an urgent telegram from the division commander.
"Dazuo, His Excellency the General orders you to rush to Zaozhuang as quickly as possible!"
But when Morita Shozo looked back at the road full of potholes in front of him, he then took off his hat, grabbed a handful of hair fiercely, and said angrily.
"Yaga!"
The highway has been destroyed, the car is not moving as fast as a person, and at the same time, they are not far from Zaozhuang now, so Morita Shozo ordered.
"Immediately abandon all vehicles, and all the staff march to Zaozhuang! The 1st Cavalry Brigade protected the left flank, and the 2nd Cavalry Brigade protected the right flank, and rushed to Zaozhuang as fast as possible. ”
Chen Jiye's blocking force saw the number of little devils surge, and at the same time changed the formation of the marching army. However, Yang Sancai's way of harassment has not changed, and they followed around these little devils like a dog's skin plaster all the way, constantly firing black guns and laying mines, giving the little devils certain casualties.
The 63rd Wing had lost contact, and Morita Shozo knew that the despicable enemies around them were very cunning and couldn't catch them at all, so he gritted his teeth and desperately urged the soldiers to rush to Zaozhuang as soon as possible, ignoring the attacks of these despicable enemies.
And Morita Shozo firmly believes that as long as he arrives in Zaozhuang, he must make Chen Jiye pay a heavy price to pay tribute to the dead of his soldiers.
The Japanese army kept running, Yang Sancai and they had to shoot black guns to escape, and they had to lay mines, and after a few times, everyone was tired.
"Huhuhu, Sancai, this little devil is too capable of running, the brothers can't do it anymore, otherwise there will be problems." Wang Dazhu sat on the ground panting and said.
"Battalion Commander Yang, we can't do it either, the little devil is running too fast, we don't have time to plant mines." Fu Yuncong also said with a bitter face.
Yang Sancai glanced at the direction of Zaozhuang, which was not far away, and then said.
"Okay, anyway, the young master has safely led people to retreat from Zaozhuang, and our task has been completed. Let's rest for a while, let's go back to Chenjia Village! ”
As soon as Yang Sancai finished speaking, several people nodded and said.
"Hmm...... OK......! ”
Five minutes later, several people returned to Chenjia Village with their troops from the path.
……
The Watanabe Wing of the 16th Division was the first to rush to Zaozhuang, but Chen Jiye had already cleaned up the battlefield and led people to run away, and all he saw was a scene full of corpses.
Watanabe Ichiro looked at the corpses like bare pigs on the ground, although these were not his own wing, but they were all excellent soldiers of the empire.
Ichiro Watanabe couldn't help but scold with spit.
"Yaga! Furong is really stupid! So many excellent warriors were buried alive by him! "Of course, he didn't know about the collective poisoning of the 63rd Wing, otherwise he wouldn't have said that.
After a while, the first captain of Watanabe United, Junsheng Tsubaki Jing Shaoza, ran over and said.
"Report to Dazuo, our soldiers found a large number of warriors' corpses in the barracks, and we determined that the entire 63rd Wing was all shattered, and none of them were alive." When Chunsheng Chunjing reported, his heart couldn't help but tremble.
Ichiro Watanabe and the people around him gasped when they heard this report.
"Hiss~"
Although they were mentally prepared for heavy losses in the 63rd Wing, they did not expect that the result would be completely annihilated.
Watanabe Ichiro was stunned for a moment before he said with a very ugly face.
"Immediately reply to the 10th Division and tell General Shinozuka that all the jade of the 63rd Wing is broken."
"Hey!" After Chunsheng Chunjing finished speaking, he immediately ordered someone to send a telegram to the 10th Division to report. At the same time, Ichiro Watanabe ordered the soldiers to collect the corpses of these warriors of the empire.
After Yoshio Shinozuka received the telegram from Watanabe United, his whole person was in a trance, "Impossible, impossible!" ……”
Today is definitely a disaster day for Yoshio Shinozuka.
One of its elite wings was wiped out, and the casualties of the military train just now were also reported. Three county towns, the three elite infantry brigades that were supported, as a result, exploded, killing more than 500 soldiers, more than 300 soldiers were seriously injured, and more than 1,000 people were lightly wounded, that is to say, in terms of reinforcements alone, nearly two brigades were killed and wounded, of course, this is not counting the casualties here Morita Shozo, otherwise the numbers are even more terrifying.
Coupled with the destruction of the 63rd Wing, Yoshio Shinozuka knew in his heart that today's casualties exceeded 5,000, and of course more of them were killed.
You must know that the 10th Division attacked Tengxian County for three days and three nights, wiped out the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army, and severely damaged the 124th Division, and the final casualties were only more than 2,000.
Chen Jiye destroyed more than 4,000 enemies and killed more than 1,000 in the first battle of Zaozhuang, although the method was a bit immoral, but it undoubtedly refreshed the record of slaughtering the Japanese army again, and this time completely angered the commander of the North China Dispatch Army, Terauchi Shouichi.
The North China Dispatch Army Command made a rough estimate and came to a terrible conclusion, unknowingly losing more than 10,000 soldiers in Chen Jiye's hands, and of course, the intangible losses caused to them were even more immeasurable.
At this time, Terauchi Shou couldn't take care of it, and no matter how difficult it was, he had to order Chen Jiye to be exterminated, so he immediately ordered the 16th Division to immediately cooperate with the 10th Division to eliminate Chen Jiye's hatred in one fell swoop.
Terauchi Shouichi ordered, Zaozhuang's Watanabe Wing and Morita troops who arrived later, and immediately led the troops to Chenjia Village.
A large number of materials in Zaozhuang were missing, and at the same time, a large number of imprints pointed in the direction of Chenjia Village, so the Japanese army would approach Chenjia Village.
Although Morita and Watanabe knew that the three villages of Chenjia Village were very strange, they thought that under the strong strength, all intrigues and tricks were useless, and they also knew that the three villages had authentics, so they would no longer be like Fukuei Zhenpei.
……
Fifth theater of operations
Early in the morning, the Japanese army's three-way military column loaded with soldiers was blown up, and there was a loud sound of violent artillery bombardment in Zaozhuang, and a large number of Japanese troops were assembled and transferred to Zaozhuang.
In Zaozhuang, the only one who can cause little devils like this is Chen Jiye.
From the moment the Japanese troops began to move, all the radio and telephone stations in the Fifth Theater Command never stopped, and all the senior officers did not stop analyzing the battle situation and deducing the battle situation.
The battle situation in Zaozhuang disrupted the battle plan of the Fifth War Zone, so all the plans made before had to be changed accordingly. Chen Jiye also invisibly increased the workload of senior officers in the Fifth Theater.
Zaozhuang now belongs to the enemy-occupied area, and the national * army in the Fifth Theater does not know what the battle situation in Zaozhuang is, so it can only continue to send reconnaissance soldiers to repeatedly investigate, and at the same time mobilize intelligence personnel to quickly find out the cause.
The battle situation in Zaozhuang not only aroused the great concern of the senior officers of the entire Fifth Theater, but also the heart of a small captain and company commander of the 20th Army Corps on the front line was also tensed.
Zhou Hao looked at Zaozhuang, and his heart was mixed.
Zaozhuang Xiji Town is his home, and there is such a big movement in Zaozhuang, he really has an impulse in his heart to take his soldiers home to see if his family is safe and sound? See if your sister and brother-in-law are still there? Can you still keep the promise you made at the beginning?
Chen Jiye's recent actions have been sneaky, and except for the Japanese army, a loyal victim, who knows it very well, and the senior officers of the Fifth War Zone, the rest of the people hardly know it. Moreover, all of Chen Jiye's achievements were all publicized by Lao Jiang on his head, and Chen Jiye did not come out to identify him, so Zhou Hao did not know Chen Jiye's current situation.
One of Zhou Hao's brothers, looking at the company commander looking in the direction of Zaozhuang, did not move for a long time, of course he knew that Zaozhuang was his company commander's home, so he asked in Zhou Hao's ear.
"Company commander, homesick?"
As soon as Zhou Hao heard the voice, he knew who this person was, so he nodded intently and said.
"Hmm."
Xu Yuechao knew that the company commander was in a bad mood, so he changed the topic and said.
"Hey, company commander, you said, all the troops in our Fifth War Zone have been withdrawn, who is doing such a big move in Zaozhuang?"
As soon as Xu Yuechao said, Zhou Hao was also very curious, but no one told him above, so he was also very puzzled.
Although he guessed many results, he rejected them one by one, and finally shook his head and said.
"I don't know."
Zhou Hao knew very well that their elite national * army could only resist the fierce attack of the little devil at a great price, so he couldn't contact Chen Jiye at all, and he couldn't believe that the weak chicken unit of the 16th Brigade still had artillery.
