Section 7 The Siege and Annihilation of Northern Hubei 11

The stars twinkled, and in the dim moonlight, a long line of figures was moving rapidly southward, bayonets reflecting a cold and gloomy light in the moonlight, and the long forced march was filled with heavy gasps, and the footsteps kicked the sleeping earth awake. \\.qВ⑤、coМ//

In the early hours of the morning the troops stopped, and after about twenty minutes, the troops resumed their advance, and Yoshio Tachibana stood on a small hill, looking through the telescope at the swarthy houses opposite, according to the reports of the spearheads, there was about a company of the Shina army in the small village opposite, and the situation further was not clear, but he believed that there were many Shina troops here, far more than the support army he led.

Turning around and descending to the bottom of the small hill, the officers of the wing were half-crouching, Yoshio Tachibana spread a map on the ground and assigned it to the major teams, and the Shina Army launched a counterattack on the central front, and the situation on the battlefield took a sharp turn for the worse.

The hunter suddenly found that he was the prey, and this huge gap in his heart made the entire Japanese army a little frightened; After the 6th and 17th Divisions crossed the Han River eastward, the 13th Division held out at Yicheng and struggled to resist the attack from the 101st Army. However, in the evening of this day, Yamamoto's troops on the southern front were broken through by the Shina Army, and Yamamoto led the remnants to retreat into Zhengji, surrounded by the pursuing Shina Corps, and the southern front had actually collapsed, and the back of the entire division was exposed to the guns of the Shina Army.

Tachibana is not worried about how many Zhina troops are on the opposite side, since the beginning of the war, the 13th Division has always won more with less, even today, when one-third of the troops are recruits, more than 80 kilometers of road, seven hours of forced march, the Chinese army will never be able to do it.

"Gentlemen, after the attack was launched, the troops kept attacking forward until Zheng Ji, destroying the Shina army in front of them, opening up contact with Yamamoto-kun, and there was no order to retreat. Ladies and gentlemen, please! Tachibana bowed deeply to all the officers.

"The empire has a long military fortune." Everyone lowered their voices and replied in unison.

"Fifteen minutes later, the attack will begin, and you will go back and prepare."

Late at night, Cao Zhenduo was awakened by a violent shaking, he opened his eyes, and what came into his eyes was the adjutant's somewhat panicked face, and then he heard a burst of gunshots, and he scolded a little unhappily: "What are you panicking about!" Isn't it just that Yamamoto wants to run, just fight back. ”

"Division commander, it's not Yamamoto, it's the reinforcements of the 13th Division, the 45th Brigade has collapsed, and the devils have already hit the outside of the village." The adjutant and the guards put on the military uniform for Cao Zhenduo, and when Cao Zhenduo heard that it was the 13th Division, his drowsiness was suddenly thrown out of the clouds, and he hurriedly jumped out of bed, and he didn't even have time to put on his riding boots, so he ran out of the door.

The sound of gunfire and explosions was already outside the village, Cao Zhenduo ran into the temporary command post, and when he entered the door, he saw that the chief of staff, Di Minzhai, was already inside, and he was talking on the phone.

"How's it going? How many devils are coming? Where is Wang Xisu? Cao Zhenduo hurriedly threw out a series of questions.

"I don't know, the devil came out of nowhere," Di Minzhai put down the phone and replied: "Judging from the gunshots, here, here, and here are all attacked by devils." ”

Di Minzhai's finger pointed on the map, the first line of defense, but the devil quickly hit the outside of the division headquarters, indicating that the outer defense line had completely collapsed.

"What about Wang Xisu? Where is he? Cao Zhenduo was extremely angry, and now he wanted to tear this person to pieces.

"I don't know." Di Minzhai was also very anxious, in the dark night, the enemy situation was unknown, and even if he counterattacked, he didn't know how to start, not to mention, the 45th Brigade defended, and the 46th Brigade had to face Zheng Ji.

In the darkness of the night, the gunfire became more intense, and the explosions became closer. This group of devils is extremely bold, divided into dozens of groups, and uses all kinds of gaps to insert inside, shooting everywhere and creating chaos.

The situation is like a mess, and Cao Zhenduo can't figure it out. A cloud of wind blew in from outside the door, and the commander of the division guard battalion ran in.

"Commander, let's go!" After the battalion commander finished speaking, his legs fell to the ground as soon as he became weak, and Cao Zhenduo's adjutant was quick and held him up. Cao Zhenduo found out that the battalion commander was covered in blood, and there were three bullet holes on his body that were still bleeding.

The gunfire was closer, and the smoke of gunfire brought bursts of blood. The gunshots were advancing from the west of the village to the village, Cao Zhenduo was a little panicked, and he didn't have time to think before he ordered: "The division headquarters will be transferred immediately and retreat to Guojiagang in the north." ”

After saying that, he took the riding boots from the guards and put them on, Di Minzhai was about to open his mouth to dissuade him, but Cao Zhenduo had already run out of the door, he had to sigh, got up and prepared to follow, but then turned around and grabbed the phone: "Brigade Commander Zhao, the division headquarters has been attacked, and the 45th Brigade has collapsed, you immediately send a battalion to counterattack." ”

After putting down the phone, he grabbed the phone again to call the military headquarters and report to Mo and Shuo, and Mo and Shuo's angry voice on the phone almost cracked his eardrums.

"What is Cao Zhenduo doing? Fight back now! There will never be many reinforcements from the devils! They are now just creating chaos to mess up! Organize a counterattack now! Again! No retreat! Violators are engaged in military law! ”

Putting down the phone, he immediately sent someone to find Cao Zhenduo, then thought about it, grabbed a Type 39 semi-automatic rifle, and said to the staff officer in the room: "Director Yuan stays, ensure communication, and others will come with me." ”

The guard class had been taken away by Cao Zhenduo, and Di Minzhai led a counterattack force composed of staff officers, men, and health soldiers to launch a counterattack in the direction of fierce gunfire.

He didn't go far, a group of routs ran in front of him, Di Minzhai stood in the middle of the road, pulled out his pistol and shot three shots at the sky, and shouted: "Don't retreat!" Counterattack! ”

The soldiers who followed him raised their guns together, aimed them at the fleeing soldiers, and shouted in unison: "Go back!" Get back! ”

The defeated soldiers looked at Di Minzhai with a murderous face stupidly, not knowing what to do, in the firelight, Di Minzhai was really anxious, and shot the two soldiers in front of him with two shots in the chest, and the two of them fell to the ground softly at once.

The sound of gunfire woke up the soldiers who were standing stupidly, and an officer ran up from behind panting: "Brothers! Company Commander Sun is leading the brothers to stop the devil! Let's go reinforce them! Walk! ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the gunshots, and some of the routs also shouted: "Eighteen years later, another good man!" Let's go! ”

The rout followed the officer in the direction of the gunfire, and at this time, a burst of gunfire came from the side, several of the team fell, two grenades exploded in the crowd, several figures flew into the air, and after the smoke passed, a circle of corpses fell to the ground.

"Rush!"

Di Minzhai didn't wait for the rout to react, and rushed forward in the face of the devils who were screaming at the wow, and the 39-style rifle in his hand spewed flames, killing several devils who were rushing in front of him, and the two devils rushed up with bright bayonets.

In the firelight, they had already seen clearly that the officer in front of them was the core of this group of soldiers, and as long as they hit him, this group of soldiers was likely to completely lose their confidence in fighting.

Di Minzhai forcefully burst the lightning-like bayonet, and before he could turn the muzzle, the second bayonet came to him, and he had no time to react, at this moment, there was the sound of a 39-type rifle behind him, and the two devils fell to the ground at once, and his body flashed, and immediately flashed to the side.

A group of soldiers rushed past him, and his guards ran ahead of him, covering him with their bodies.

"Boom!" "Boom!" Several grenades exploded on the opposite side, and before the smoke cleared, the soldiers rushed in, and fierce gunfire rang out.

The road in the village was narrow, and so many troops could not be spread at all, Di Minzhai called a staff officer and asked him to take a few people to go around from the flank, and then he took a group of soldiers to go around the village and start a counterattack from outside the village.

The counterattack of the squadron had an effect, the offensive of the devils was contained, and they were gradually expelled from the village, and then they were blocked by Di Minzhai who went around the outside of the village, and after a fierce battle, this group of devils was all annihilated in the fields outside the village.

The crisis at the division headquarters was resolved, but the crisis at the entire 16th division was not. The village where the division headquarters was located was not the main direction of attack of Yoshio Tachibana, and the main direction of attack was a little further north.

Yoshio Tachibana resolutely and tenaciously assaulted Zheng Ji, cut a bloody path from the defense line of the 45th Brigade, and rushed into the defense line of the 46th Brigade. The 46th Brigade was notified by Di Minzhai that it was ready for battle. The Japanese also did not expect to continue the surprise attack, but took a strong attack, and the two sides spread out in the dark of night. At this time, Yamamoto in Zhengji organized a forward team and launched an attack on the 46th Brigade, and after two attacks, a gap was finally opened, and Yamamoto immediately led his troops to retreat north through this gap without the slightest hesitation.

Yamamoto's decision was very correct, and less than ten minutes after his troops passed, fierce gunfire was heard simultaneously from the west and south, and the squadron launched a full-scale counterattack.

After the initial confusion, the 16th Division has now gradually stabilized its position, and Mo and Shuo urgently transferred the military guard regiment to cooperate to launch a counterattack against the Japanese army. To the south and east, Mou Tingfang commanded the 94th Army to attack, the main 5th Division and the 35th Provisional Division attacked from the south and north, while the 79th Division made a detour north of Zhengji and attacked the retreating Japanese army.

The real danger of Yoshio Tachibana came, the samurai from Sendai showed their toughness, they fought to the death on the left and right, and fought repeatedly in each position, until all of them were killed, and then they were occupied by the squadron.

The boiled duck ran away, from Guo Yan to Mo and Shuo, everyone was furious, and before dawn, the order to arrest Cao Zhenduo and Wang Xisu was issued from Guo Yan's headquarters, and Di Minzhai was promoted to act as the deputy brigade commander of the 5th Brigade Xie Weizhi as the acting brigade commander.

It was a night of chaos and a night of blood.

The arrest of Cao Zhenduo and Wang Xisu immediately spread to all the troops, and this kind of impromptu killing had never happened before. From high-ranking generals to low-ranking officers, they all trembled and did not dare to be a little timid.

The sound of killing was not extinguished all night, and fierce battles were fought everywhere; In the fields, in the villages; Under the field, beside the stream; The soldiers of the two countries fought desperately, and every hut had to go through a bloody battle to get it.

The howls of beastliness, the screams of death, the cries of charge, the screams of hysteria, mixed with the sound of gunfire and artillery, echoed in the fierce battlefield.
