Chapter 302: Xuzhou Recovered

In the afternoon.

Another batch of planes arrived at Xuzhou Airport, and so far, 14,000 or 5,000 officers and men of the Second Infantry Division have all arrived in Xuzhou by air. After receiving the weapons and equipment, he immediately headed towards Xuzhou City.

The 2nd Infantry Division and the 1st Armored Division Tank Regiment surrounded Xuzhou City, and the Airborne Regiment was temporarily stationed at Xuzhou Airport.

Ye Feng also deployed two "Flying Fortress" bomber squadrons at Xuzhou Airport, and in the future, Ye Feng also plans to deploy two or three fighter squadrons at Xuzhou Airport.

Naturally, the 48 "Flying Fortress" bombers flew from Hangzhou, stayed after arriving at Xuzhou Airport, and did not return to Hangzhou.

In the early morning of the next day, the battle to recover Xuzhou began.

With the cooperation of aircraft and tanks, the battle of the Second Infantry Division went smoothly, and the day after the battle began, the Eighth Route Army also sent a team of thousands of people to participate in the battle, and the Eighth Route Army participated in the battle, and Ye Feng readily agreed.

Many of the soldiers of the 4th or 5,000 Eighth Route Army were armed with Japanese-style equipment, which was obviously the equipment of the Fifth Brigade of the Japanese Army's independent mixed brigade captured yesterday, and many of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were armed with Type 38 rifles and crooked machine guns, thus greatly improving their combat effectiveness.

On the third day of street fighting, the entire city of Xuzhou was basically controlled by soldiers, and the main streets were full of soldiers, as well as tanks and armored vehicles.

The 2nd Infantry Division had a small number of M3 half-track armored vehicles, which also participated in this street battle, and the ferocious fire of the armored vehicles was simply a moving fortress, and the fighters who followed the attack of these armored vehicles fought smoothly.

The tanks of the tank regiment were also completely dispersed. Behind each tank was at least a dozen fighters following up the battle, and the main street of Xuzhou was occupied by the fighters in less than two days. The barricades and fortifications on the streets were destroyed one by one by the powerful main guns of the tanks.

The thousands of puppet troops in Xuzhou City were crushed at the first touch, and basically all of them surrendered on the first day, except for a few who fled or were killed. Most of them were taken prisoner by the warriors.

After two or three days of fighting, more than half of the casualties of the 110th Division of the little Japanese army had been killed, and the remnants of the little devils were divided and surrounded. Within two or three days. The small Japanese 110th Division desperately begged for reinforcements, but there were almost no reinforcements arriving in Xuzhou.

The Japanese sent several reinforcements, but these reinforcements were either sniped or bombed by "Flying Fortress" bombers. Not only is the loss not small. And the progress is slow, far from reaching Xuzhou.

This morning, the General Headquarters of the North China Front of Little Japan finally gave up reinforcements and sent an order to the 110th Division to break out on its own, ordering the 110th Division to break through on its own

In the south of Xuzhou, in a large area of inconspicuous houses, a compound seems to be relatively atmospheric, which may be the compound of a wealthy family. There is a garden. There is a hall, there are wings. In and out of two or three houses.

After the headquarters of the 110th Division was bombed, the commander of the Devil Division, Noto Matashiro, took a large number of devil officers, and at least hundreds of other little devil soldiers, auxiliary and civilian personnel to this compound and set up a temporary command center in this compound.

After receiving the order from the North China Front, the commander of the Devil Division, Noto Matashiro, turned pale and chose the opportunity to break through on his own, and it seemed that Tada Jun had given up the 110th Division.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come for you to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, and we will fight the new 6th Army to the end."

In front of Noto Matashiro stood a large group of small Japanese officers, and when they heard Noto Matashiro's words, these little Japanese officers lowered their heads and looked miserable.

The current situation is already very bad, and their own division and regiment have completely given up breaking through, that is, they can only die in battle and fight against the new 6th Army.

There was a tragic atmosphere in the entire command headquarters, and at this time, a devil officer ran in anxiously and said loudly: "Your Excellency Division Commander, our headquarters has obviously been discovered, we have been surrounded by regiments, and all around are the figures of the newly formed 6th Army and the Eighth Route Army, with at least one or two thousand people. ”

With so many people, hearing this, Noto Matashiro's face changed, in this area, all his personnel add up to only five or six hundred, and about one-third are auxiliary or civilian personnel, and there is almost no combat effectiveness.

Outside, there were clear gunfire sounds, obviously, the soldiers had already begun to attack, hearing this dense gunfire sound, Noto Matashiro's face was very ugly, and there was a trace of very hidden despair in his eyes.

"Da, da, da......"

"Bang, bang, bang"

The sound of machine guns and submachine guns, the firing of Garand rifles, and even the occasional explosion sounded, and thousands of fighters had already begun to attack.

Little Japan, which had exchanged fire with the fighters, was not only inferior in numbers, but also in terms of weaponry and morale, and the soldiers advanced steadily.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, a soldier threw a grenade into a civilian house, and the violent explosion shattered several little devils in the room.

Several fighters, holding Thomson submachine guns and Garand rifles, kicked open the door of a room, just now some soldiers saw that there seemed to be a few little devils in this room, and as soon as several soldiers rushed in, there was a burst of fierce strafing, and several little devils were quickly killed.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, who followed behind the soldiers, did not show weakness when they saw that everyone was so fierce, and whenever they saw a few little devils, they often went up together with more than a dozen people, and they quickly beat the little devils to death.

The number of little devils was not much, and when they were beaten by the fighters, they retreated, and the soldiers in all directions further narrowed the encirclement, nearly two thousand soldiers, surrounding hundreds of little devils in a small area.

There are 20 or 30 large and small houses in this area, and the houses are not very dense, and the soldiers use large-scale demonstrations, and they feel that they are not limited by the terrain at all sides when they attack at the same time, and there is enough space for everyone to attack, the only regret is that the tanks cannot enter.

In the center of this area, there is the compound, the temporary headquarters of the 110th Division of the little devils is in this compound, and as the encirclement tightens, some of the little devils who are defending on the periphery have to retreat into this compound.

Seeing that many people were retreating towards this compound, the head of the Devil Division, Noto Matashiro, shouted angrily: "Yaga, what's the matter? ”

A devil Shaozuo was embarrassed, there were even a few blood stains on his body, and he was retreating in with a few devil soldiers, and when he saw his division commander questioning loudly, he immediately said miserably: "Your Excellency, the warriors we resisted on the periphery suffered heavy losses, and we couldn't hold it." ”

Hearing this, Noto Matashiro's face was dark, and his despair was a little heavier, listening to the sound of the gunshot, the soldiers of the newly formed 6th Army were very close to him, so Noto Matashiro walked into the hall headquarters and said to the devil messenger in the hall: "Send a farewell message to Commander-in-Chief Tada Jun." ”

In the hall, there are several radio stations against the wall, and in the center of the hall, there is a large long table with maps on the table. This is the command hall of the temporary command of the 110th Division.

Hearing the order of the commander of his division, several little devil communication soldiers looked desperate and began to send reports to the outside ticking.

Outside this compound, many soldiers have rushed to the gate of the compound.

Several fighters with Thomson submachine guns took the lead, holding submachine guns and strafing all the way, unstoppable, and several little devils at the gate were hit to the ground by dense bullets.

Behind these soldiers, a large number of soldiers, if not hundreds, but dozens, among them, there are many soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, and a soldier of the Eighth Route Army also holds a crooked machine gun and uses the machine gun as a submachine gun.

Killed a few little devils at the gate, kicked open the gate, and everyone swarmed in, and everyone already knew that this was the headquarters of the 110th Division of Little Japan.

The fighters shouted, and the dense shooting continued one after another, and as soon as these dozens of fighters rushed in, more fighters ran over, and everyone rushed in with weapons.

Among these people, there was also a major battalion commander, this battalion commander actually participated in the battle himself, holding a Browning pistol, after rushing in, he hit the little devil when he saw it, without mercy, after killing a little devil, and shouted loudly.

"There is an order from the military seat, don't take prisoners, kill them all, and leave no !!"

There are more and more soldiers rushing into this compound, and the compound is full of soldiers, and at this time, many soldiers have rushed into the command hall of the 110th Division.

The battalion commander of the major, who had personally participated in the battle, also followed the soldiers into the command hall with his Browning pistol, and was overjoyed to see that there were many devil officers in the hall.

Seeing a devil Shaozuo, the battalion commander raised his hand and shot it, without hesitation, the battalion commander had good marksmanship, and a shot hit the devil Shaozo in the chest.

The soldiers who rushed into the command hall also shot one after another, and all the little devils, regardless of their rank, were killed, Shaozuo, Zhongzuo, and even Dazuo were all killed.

Several soldiers saw that there was actually a devil major general in the hall, these soldiers had bright eyes, and they shot fiercely with their submachine guns, as if the bullets didn't need money, and the devil major general was beaten to pieces, and fell to the ground unwillingly, and died no longer dead.

After the battalion commander of the major killed a devil Shaozuo, he was pleasantly surprised to find a devil lieutenant general, who was the commander of the 110th Division, Lieutenant General and Division Commander Mahashiro Noto.

"Bang!"

A shot hit the center of Nakano Fujimathiro's eyebrows, a big blood hole, and the brains were almost out, and almost at the same time, several fighters discovered this devil lieutenant general, and everyone aimed and shot.

Matashiro Noto was shot with at least dozens of bullets, and after falling to the ground, he was whipped by several fighters, and the entire body was almost a pile of minced meat

After four days of street fighting, all the little devils in Xuzhou City were basically eliminated, and Xuzhou was recovered.
