In the operation of large corps, the emphasis is on close coordination

Eight main brigades, eight brigades, seven garrison brigades, and two brigade-level detachments of the Eighth Route Army, totaling 75 infantry regiments, plus artillery brigades, air defense brigades, cavalry brigades, engineer brigades, and heavy machine gun brigades, with a total strength of 300,000 people, all of which were put into the Taixi battlefield

That night, next to the map of the war room of the Military Commission, let Ye Jianying personally mark the secret of the enemy's situation Ye Zilong shuttled back and forth between the confidential room and the war room, constantly transmitting telegrams

He Zizhen saw that the guards had been turned away several times when they delivered food, so he personally came to urge him to eat, which made him angry and threw his pencil on the ground: "Play the piano indiscriminately, what kind of food are you eating?" The Japanese cavalry group has already smuggled across the Yellow River, and tens of thousands of people in the three brigades of the river defense force will be dumplings made by devils immediately, and they are still in the mood to eat? Get out"

He Zizhen's aggrieved tears rolled in his eyes, and he held back a sentence for a long time: "The devil has a gun in his hand, not necessarily our soldier has a burning stick in his hand" After speaking, he turned around and left with tears in his eyes

I couldn't do it, so I took out the smoke, took out the match and didn't even strike three sticks, so angry that I dropped the match

Ye Zilong hurriedly picked up matches, lit cigarettes, picked up the pencil on the ground, and stuffed it into his hand to report that Division Commander Liu Yimin had issued an order, ordering all brigades in the main battlefield of the Taixi Campaign to step up the encirclement of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army, ordering the 2nd Brigade and the 8th Brigade to be on alert to the north and flanking the Japanese army, and ordering the river defense troops to quickly blow up the Luokou Railway Bridge, and then withdraw from the river defense line

He ordered Ye Zilong not to say any more, and asked Ye Jianying instead: "Jianying, you said that if the Japanese cavalry group catches up with our river defense troops, will our army be able to stop them?" ”

Ye Jianying originally founded a guerrilla cadre training class in Nanyue, because the war in North China was tense and the generals were on the front line, he was urgently recalled to Xi'an to assist in commanding the operation

Ye Jianying replied: "Chairman, cavalry against infantry, under normal circumstances, cavalry has an absolute advantage, especially after the cavalry breaks through the infantry defense line, the lethality is very great, but since the appearance of the Maxim heavy machine gun, this situation has changed, the cavalry due to the large target, easy to become the target of infantry fire, casualties will be large, if placed in the past, our army lacks heavy firepower, encountered a large-scale cavalry group such as four cavalry wings, it is necessary to suffer losses, and the whole army will be wiped out, but now the situation is different, three brigades of the river defense force, Although one is a brigade and two are garrison brigades, the equipment is unambiguous, the firepower is unambiguous, it is likely that their equipment is better than the equipment of the 115th Division, and it is now night, the Japanese cavalry must use torches or flashlights to march quickly, and it is not as fast as the daytime, they can gallop freely like in the daytime, if they encounter the brigade-level resistance of our river defense troops, they can only become the target of our army, and our army has decided to take the initiative to withdraw and avoid the attack of the devils. The initiative is back in the hands of our army On such a night, and the Japanese army is not encircled, our river defense troops can be withdrawn quietly, and the devil can't find the chairman if he wants to rest assured, Zeng Zhongsheng, Cai Zhong, Xu Shiyou, Fu Zhuting, Zhu Liangcai, which one is not a good general in a hundred battles? The devil can't take any advantage, otherwise, Liu Yimin will not continue to follow the battle plan calmly."

After hearing this, he thought silently for a while, and said to Ye Jianying: "The key now is that our army can solve the 14th Division before the Japanese army's northern and eastern armies rush to the battlefield, and then we can win the initiative on the battlefield, otherwise, we will repeat the old story of the Battle of Lanfeng, so that the remnants of the 14th Division can escape, and after replenishing and resting, it will be another 14th Division to report to Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan, strictly ordering all troops to speed up the attack, and must solve the battle within two hours. Respond to the transfer of river defense troops and buy time for the main force to encircle and annihilate the 14th Division"

Ye Jianying hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Chairman, the Taixi Battle is at the cost of abandoning Jinan and Jiaoji Road, and the main force of the Japanese Southern Front Group is fighting until this time, the fate of the destruction of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army is already doomed, but it is a matter of time sooner or later, I see Liu Yimin's position, it is to welcome the main force of the Japanese Army on the Northern Front and the Main Force of the Eastern Front to advance rapidly, and to pursue in the south, you must know that the main force of our army is concentrated on both sides of the Wen River, after the elimination of the 14th Division, I am fully capable of fighting devils again, maybe Liu Yimin is still looking forward to which division of the Japanese army will advance alone and go south to copy the back road of our army, you know, our army in Shandong has 300,000 regular troops, and there are more than 200,000 people on the front line of the Wenhe River.

After thinking about it, he said: "That's it, report to Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan, and strictly order all troops to speed up the attack In addition, remind them that the second brigade and the eighth brigade are on alert to the north, and they must be carefully deployed, and there must be no more things similar to the success of the Japanese army smuggling across the Yellow River. Is it a mistake for a senior commander to make a mistake in checking for poorly deployed mistakes, playing the piano indiscriminately, and being passive twice in one day? Liu Yimin is kind-hearted and reluctant to criticize them, and the central authorities cannot but criticize them by name."

It was not until the instructor reported that our assault group had crossed the Dawen River and encircled the eastern, western, and southern groups on all sides, and that the artillery group followed up in time and began to carry out precision firepower strikes against the remnants of the enemy's 14th Division, that he took his eyes off the map, threw the pencil in his hand on the table, and said: "The 14th Division, the Utsunomiya Division, go to the center"

Seeing that he was in a good mood and his eyebrows revealed an indescribable chic and leisurely, Ye Jianying suggested: "Chairman, the elimination of two divisions and one independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army in World War I is unprecedented, and it has created a successful example of our army's implementation of large corps operations. Even if the Japanese army occupies Jinan and Jiaoji Road, it is afraid of falling into the encirclement of our army and does not dare to go south with all its might, so our army can let go boldly through Lunan Zhan, and even take Xuzhou."

I was in a good mood, and my voice was full of smiles: "This telegram doesn't need Liu Yimin to fight, all he thinks about is continuous combat, he must have a comprehensive battle plan, we don't affect his decision-making, you can tell him, eliminate the 14th Division, the Battle of Taixi has come to an end, the next battle, if you can fight, you can fight, if you can't fight, you can temporarily hide the devil can not be fought in a day or two, Xing can't eat hot tofu to mobilize the Japanese army, tired the Japanese army, and lead the Japanese army by the nose, it is the best policy, I want to eat"

Looking at the departing back, Ye Zilong asked Ye Jianying: "Chief of Staff, can you announce the news that our army has eliminated the 14th and 35th Divisions of the Japanese Army, and the 13th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Army?" ”

Ye Jianying looked at Ye Zilong a little strangely: "The front line is in full swing, and the remnants of the 14th Division are still resisting, why are you thinking about the news?" ”

Ye Zilong hurriedly saluted and reported that the 14th Division fell into the hands of the instructor, just a dead word, and those who couldn't run haven't seen any enemy army that could run away from the hands of Division Commander Liu Yimin unless they were ghosts

Ye Jianying's poetry is very drunk, and he is a famous Confucian general in our army, but he is thoughtful, and he speaks without leakage, and directly told Ye Zilong: "This is a big war, when to announce the war report, you must listen to Liu and Luo Chang first, they think it is appropriate to announce the war report, when they will announce it, they will not ask for it to be announced to the outside world, they will keep it strictly confidential and not announce it for the time being."

Ye Jianying is really right, at this time, the front line of Taixi is indeed in full swing

When Zeng Zhongsheng and Cai Zhong received Liu Yimin's telegram order to evacuate the river defense position, they were very heavy

Zeng Zhongsheng's face was gloomy, and his voice revealed infinite regret: "Director Cai, I didn't think it through, I made the mistake of underestimating the enemy, I was first outflanked by the Japanese army, and almost trapped the Luxi Garrison Brigade and the Sixth Brigade into the encirclement of the Japanese army, and then I was successfully smuggled across the Yellow River by the Japanese cavalry.

Cai Zhong is also depressed, he is the political commissar of the Northern Front Group, Zeng Zhongsheng underestimated the enemy, which means that he also underestimated the enemy Zeng Zhongsheng was not thoughtful, he also did not think about it, otherwise this situation would not have occurred Of course, war has its own laws, it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to always win battles and not defeat battles, and the Japanese army is not made of tofu, and their generals and commanders are all graduates of regular military academies and have been trained in actual combat, in terms of tactical command ability alone, it is absolutely unambiguous that the Eighth Route Army can slap the Japanese army, The Japanese army has the ability to strike a backhand, and this cannot be blamed entirely on anyone

Cai Zhong said in a deep voice: "It's not you who do the review alone, I also have to do the review, don't talk about these things now, hurry up and carry out the order, organize the retreating Japanese artillery fire is so strong, and the cavalry group is making a detour here, Chi Zesheng will change and hurry up to give the order."

Zeng Zhongsheng originally wanted to concentrate the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade to ambush the Japanese cavalry group, teach the devils a lesson, let them know the consequences of a sneak attack, but now it is too late, once the Japanese infantry follows the cavalry across the river and comes to outflank, and then blindly loves to fight, it may fall into the encirclement of the devils

With a loud bang, the Luokou Yellow River Railway Bridge was blown into two parts, and the river defense troops of the Eighth Route Army quietly withdrew from their positions and disappeared into the night under the cover of night

By the time the Japanese army climbed over the ice of the Yellow River with great difficulty and pounced on the river defense position of the Eighth Route Army, there was no one here

At this time, the Battle of Taixi had entered the final stage, the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army had broken the Japanese army into pieces, and the famous 14th Division had now been bombed and disorganized, and the division commander could not find the brigade commander, the brigade commander could not find the wing commander, the wing commander could not find the group leader, and the group leader could not find the squadron leader

At this time, the Japanese army should concentrate on attacking to the south and opening a way of life, and the key to them is indeed that they can no longer gather strength, the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army is staring at them with all their hearts, as long as they form a larger force, the shells will fall like hail, and their offensive will disappear immediately. If they were to escape with their lives, Hong Yuan's three words would have to be written backwards

At this time of the battle, all the units of the Eighth Route Army involved in the battle launched a centripetal assault, surrounded the devils, including the troops of the southern group that blocked the devils' retreat, and began to attack the devils with battalions and companies as units

The devils who scattered everywhere were oppressed by the Eighth Route Army on all sides, and gradually concentrated together

The artillery group of the Eighth Route Army temporarily stopped the shelling, quietly waiting for the troops to squeeze the devils step by step, ready to wait for the devils to gather together again, and then make another saturation strike to completely eliminate the devils Therefore, Li Chang not only did not order the artillery regiments to transfer, but strictly ordered the artillery regiments to move forward quickly, ready to approach the artillery special flying thunder artillery regiment, Ding Zhuodong, deputy political commissar of the artillery brigade and head of the flying thunder artillery regiment, saw the excitement of the night, and was already impatient, Li Chang said to him with a smile on the phone: "Lao Ding, your flying thunder cannon is suitable for close combat, Hurry up and pull it up, lest you don't say anything when you introduce the Battle of Tessie to others in the future, you can only say that I participated in the Battle of Tessie, but I didn't fire a single shot haha"

Li Chang's laughter was heard in Ding Zhuodong's ears, and he almost punctured his eardrums, so the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment, which was already marching rapidly, beat the horses pulling the cart as fast as the soldiers galloped towards the battlefield

The armored regiment commanded by Zhao Dahe, guiding armored vehicles and automobiles, began to detour on both sides, forming a circular loose encirclement on the battlefield, and then guiding the troops to attack centripetally, constantly compressing the devils

This is the difference between the instructor fighting a war and other troops, resting on other troops, at this time it is necessary to wear Cha to divide the devils, divide the devils into pieces, surround and annihilate them, divide and annihilate the instructor Because of the strong firepower, Liu Yimin has always emphasized that it is better to give up a hundred bullets than a soldier, and the troops are particularly good at raising firepower in battle

After the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment arrived at the battlefield, it quickly set up positions and soon entered the battle

At this time, the flying thunder artillery, after several years of transformation, has reached a range of 1,000 meters, this kind of weapon is easy to make, easy to lay out the position, dig a pit in the ground, bury the barrel of the cannon made of oil drums, and you can shoot

This time, the sound of the cannon popping out on the battlefield is a sharp whistle, and the explosive bag fired by the flying thunder cannon is a dull sound, and the combination of the two sounds is a combination of high and low sound, which is not good, but the killing effect is excellent

At this time, Sekii Takachang understood how the Eighth Division and the Tenth Division were completely annihilated by the Eighth Route Army so quickly, the artillery fire was powerful, and the infantry firepower was so fierce He saw it clearly, the original imperial army relied on the chariot as a sharp weapon on the battlefield, and it was simply vulnerable in front of the Eighth Route Army. The most incredible thing about the anti-aircraft machine guns being placed horizontally against armored vehicles and automobiles is that even the infantry guns can be used by the Eighth Route Army to deal with the chariot imperial army, and the armor of the chariots is too thin, and the shells of the infantry guns can penetrate, which is simply unimaginable

Sekii Takamasa had foreseen that the destruction of the troops would be in the blink of an eye, so he simply calmed down and ordered the commanders of the troops to burn the military flags, code books, and smash the radio station

In the telegram, Takamasa Sekii said: "The 14th Division went north from Yanzhou to attack at noon, and was blocked and ambushed by the Eighth Route Army along the way, but our division was able to raise the spirit of jade crushing and resolutely attack, and the attack was very fast and smooth, but after dark, in order to achieve the operational goal of attacking and occupying Jinan, the division and regiment were determined to attack on all fronts, intending to break through the defense line of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop. Breaking through a point will cost a huge sacrifice, the division immediately ordered the heavy artillery troops to prepare for battle, destroying the position of the Eighth Route Army At this time, the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army was suddenly difficult, first raided the 20th Wing of the Field Artillery that was being shelled, and then raided the main force of the division, resulting in heavy losses for the main force of the division What is unexpected is that the elite team of the Eighth Route Army has long been hidden in Anjiazhuang, and at this time it also broke out, stealing 24 heavy artillery and ammunition convoys of two heavy artillery brigades, attacking the baggage wing and field hospital in Anjiazhuang, Caused the two units to basically all jade shattered under the destruction of the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army, the division and regiment requested tactical guidance in time, and was ordered to retreat to the front line of the Wen River to Anjiazhuang, and was attacked by the elite team of the Eighth Route Army At this time, the pursuit force of the Eighth Route Army was approaching, and the division had to order the troops to retreat south quickly, and after crossing the Wen River, the position was established but the weather was cold, and the equipment loss was serious, and it was impossible to build a position At this time, the aviation bravely attacked and attacked the pursuit unit of the Eighth Route Army, but paid a heavy price, and it was suspected that the fighters had no life after the pursuit force of the Eighth Route Army came up, The scale of the tanks of the Eighth Route Army has reached a wing, the size of armored vehicles should be about one, and the number of cars should be between 7oo and 8oo, and it is concentrated in the face of such a powerful steel force, and the broken and incomplete divisions are powerless to block, coupled with the bombardment of hundreds of cannons from the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army, the division was forced to retreat from the south bank of the Wen River, thus falling into the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army again

Judging from the battlefield situation, the scale of the Eighth Route Army's dispatch this time was extremely large, and it was impossible to judge whether the artillery used should be between 4oo and 5oo, and such powerful artillery fire was the fundamental reason for the crushing of the 8th Division, the 10th Division, and the 14th Division

In addition, in the battle, the Eighth Route Army has a special weapon to fight the chariot, a shell can beat the chariot into scrap metal, they can also use anti-aircraft guns to fight the chariot horizontally, the effect is excellent, the imperial army's chariot armor is too thin, it is not vulnerable at all, and it is urgent to develop a chariot, otherwise, the imperial army and the Eighth Route Army instructor will not have the slightest advantage

As for the flags of the 14th Division and the 35th Division, they have been burned and the whereabouts of Lieutenant General Maeda Osamu and Lieutenant General Morita Masatomi are unknown, and I have already sacrificed my life for His Majesty the Emperor, and I have burned my uniform, number plate, and command knife to wait for the final moment of death with the Eighth Route Army."

Sekii Takamasa wanted to say a few more words, but time did not allow, and the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army opened fire again, and a shell fell on Sekii Takamasa's side, blowing up the radio station and the telegraph operator, and Sekii Takamasa's carotid artery was also cut by shrapnel and began to gurgle and bleed

Sekii Takamasa subconsciously covered the wound with his hands, but his whole body was soft and had no strength at all

The staff officer on the side hurriedly pulled him, dragged him to the tank, and kept shouting that the sanitary soldiers came to bandage it, but it was a pity, where could the sanitary soldiers be found at this time? The sky was full of flying shells and explosives bags of the Eighth Route Army, and the sound of explosions everywhere made it impossible for the health soldiers to hear their cries even if they were alive

Sekii Takamasa's mind tended to blur a little bit, and at this time, he vaguely remembered that he had heard the old people say that China was the kingdom of God, and that Japanese writing and monasteries were all transmitted from China

With the death of Sekii Takamasa, the Battle of Taixi was also coming to an end, and a group of Eighth Route Army shouted and pounced on the last position of the Japanese army, and soon, the gunfire stopped, and the rest was the cheers of the soldiers
