The third part of the Bloody War of Resistance, Chapter 9, Rushing and Ninth Chapter, Phantom

"This Nakajima Kangjian is still a little interesting. /。 \\"Jia Wang, Jiangbei Theater Command, Ishihara Wan'er got the report in Tokyo, Zhuang Jihua had already been reported, and the results achieved by Nakajima Yasuken were much worse than expected.

There was a secret mobilization and adjustment of deployment and mobilization of troops, neither Liang Dai nor Song Xilian was aware of it, and the Japanese army completely achieved a surprise before the battle was launched. When the 68th Army was attacked, Liang Dai believed that this was a tentative attack by the Japanese army, and Song Xilian judged that the purpose of the Japanese army was to improve the peripheral situation and restore the lost position.

When Liang Dai realized that the situation was wrong, the first-line positions such as Guzhuang and Sanlipu had all been lost, and Liang Dai hurriedly transferred the 143rd Division of the second-line army forward, and transferred the 286th Brigade from the 119th Division of the reserve to launch a counterattack at Fan Gongtun. However, to Liang Dai's disappointment, the Fifth Division was shattered, the brigade commander Xu Jizhen escaped from the battle, the following two regiment commanders were killed and wounded, and the troops were scattered, causing the entire front to flash a gap as wide as three miles. The front of the provisional 36th Division wavered, and Song Hongtao was forced to retreat.

After the attack was successful, Yasuken Nakajima continued to attack, and the Fifth Division attacked northward, tearing apart the defense line of the squadron in one fell swoop. If at this time, Nakajima Yasuken went north, he could get out of the encirclement of the squadron, but Nakajima Yasuken did not adopt this strategy, but attacked the flank of the 40th Army to the west.

Nakajima Yasuken succeeded, and the 71st Division defending in the west immediately launched a counterattack, and the 40th Army was attacked from both sides, and the whole army fell into a bitter battle. In order to save the war, Song Xilian ordered Sun Zhen to attack Liaocheng with the 41st Army, and the 45th Army marched north to launch an attack in the Kezhenzhai area; At the same time, the Qing Fourth Army reinforced the 40th Army, and the Qing Third Army launched an attack on Liaocheng from the south, and at the same time reiterated to the whole army that the first soldier sits in a row, and those who retreat without authorization will be killed

Nakajima Yasuken resisted the attack of the 45th Army with the main force of the 21st Brigade, the main force still insisted on flanking the 40th Army, Chi Fengcheng led his troops to fight hard, Liang Dai reorganized the troops, arrested and shot Xu Jizhen, and strictly ordered the 119th Division to launch a counterattack in Liangshui Town to contain the Japanese army.

The series of orders of Song Xilian and Liang Dai, especially the execution of Xu Jizhen, shocked all the officers and soldiers, this was the highest rank of officers and soldiers to be executed since the beginning of the Liaocheng operation, all the officers and soldiers who participated in the battle did not dare to retreat easily, and all positions were fighting to the death.

"There shouldn't be much danger in Song Xilian," Xu Zuyi said after consideration: "Now that the key Dexian County has been fighting for three days, Zhang Xin should be ordered to strengthen the offensive and take Dexian County as soon as possible." ”

Although Xu Zuyi said it tactfully, the dissatisfaction in the tone was obvious, Xiaoxiao Dexian County, less than 2,000 defenders, but the 101st Army fought for three days, and it was not able to completely annihilate the enemy, the 59th Division of the Japanese army, the main force on the south bank of the Yellow River, had crossed the Yellow River and occupied the Qi River, and the forward was marching towards Yucheng.

On the south bank of the Yellow River, the 62nd Division was still holding on to the Jinan and Xincheng ferries, the 21st Mixed Brigade was desperately resisting the 50th Group Army and the Eighth Army that were trailing, and the 3rd Mixed Brigade was rushing to the Xincheng Ferry.

To the north of Dexian County, Wang Tong as the center, from the northeast to the southwest of the 20-kilometer front, the whole line of fierce fighting, the Japanese army like a wave of the first team of the defense line, the first team of the first line of hard fighting, north and south wings, constantly retreating, only the center of the battle situation, Wang Tong, never moved, like a reef, will be rushed to the storm.

"The chief of staff is right," Zhuang Jihua was also very dissatisfied in his heart, Dexian County has become a thorn in the throat of the squadron, and it must be pulled out as soon as possible: "Call the 101st Army, remove Zhang Xin from the post of commander of the 101st Army, remove him from his post and stay in office, and order him to take Dexian County within today and completely annihilate the defenders, but he can be guilty of meritorious service, otherwise, the brigade commander and above will be punished by military law."

Xu Zuyi was stunned, he didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to make such a severe treatment, you must know that the 101st Army is the descendant of Zhuang Jihua's lineage, it can be said that it is a unit created by him, and all officers at all levels are selected by him, even if he leaves the Fifth War Zone, the appointment of officers at all levels of the 101st Army still has to be approved by him.

But this time the thunder was furious, and he didn't wait until after the war, he immediately gave an order, Xu Zuyi was still thinking about how to let Zhuang Jihua take back this order, but Cai Tingkai had already expressed his support: "This is a good way to make a statement to all the troops participating in the war, and those who are unfavorable in the war will not be spared in the war zone."

Xu Zuyi suddenly realized that Zhuang Jihua was killing monkeys and scaring chickens, removing and retaining people, and reinstating his post after the war, so he didn't need to worry about it. As everyone knows, he was wrong, Zhang Xin's performance in this battle made Zhuang Jihua very disappointed, and he had already germinated plans to change generals.

The attacks of Liaocheng and Dexian were blocked, but the entire battle situation was still under the control of the squadron. Zhuang Jihua didn't care about Xu Zuyi drafting a telegram, looked at the map and said slowly: "Matsui Shigen made another mistake, the progress of the 59th Division is too fast, the 59th Division has suffered a lot of losses in the Taishan area, and now the forward is about to arrive in Yucheng, and the rear guard is still on the bank of the Yellow River. Where is Janssen? ”

Xu Zuyi understood what Zhuang Jihua wanted to do as soon as he heard it, and he also admitted that in the middle, the section from Qihe to Yucheng was the weak point of the Japanese army.

"The Twentieth Army and the Seventy-third Army have crossed the Yellow River and arrived at the Confession Temple and Yizhangtun Line west of the Jinpu Line. In addition, Yu Chengwan of the 78th Army had already arrived at the front line of Xindian and Majing, and the tank regiment had also arrived at Xidayang. Xu Zuyi said and clicked twice on the map, these two places are where the 78th Army and the tank regiment are located.

"yes, okay." Zhuang Jihua seemed to be very satisfied and nodded, and only spoke after a while: "Order, Yang Sen, attack Yucheng with the 20th Army, and attack Qi County with the 73rd Army; The 78th Army attacked Qi County from the west and told Yang Sen Yu Chengwan that if Qi County was taken, more than 50,000 people in Matsui Shigen would be eaten. ”

Both Xu Zuyi and Cai Tingkai agreed with this, Cai Tingkai smiled happily: "This Matsui Shigen can't run this time, six years ago, this kid made a mess when he entered Nanjing, and this time he went out of Shandong, he was also killed." ”

Zhuang Jihua smiled faintly, turned around, walked to the table and shook his head lightly and sighed: "Matsui Shigen is a veteran, his talent is not even among the Japanese generals, I don't know why, the Japanese military department has repeatedly entrusted important tasks..." ”

Saying that, he shook his head again, seemingly very dissatisfied, Gong Xiuhua appeared at the door at this time, carrying a food box, and smiled at Zhuang Jihua when he entered the door: "It's time to eat, as soon as Matsui Shigen is finished, nearly half of the North China devils will go." ”

Zhuang Jihua sat down, and Gong Xiuhua took out a few dishes and a pot of rice from the food box, Zhuang Jihua and Cai Tingkai are both southerners, and Xu Zuyi does not count the north and south, so the meals in the headquarters are mainly based on southern food.

"Sit down and eat together." Cai Tingkai greeted Gong Xiuhua and said, Gong Xiuhua squeezed out a smile: "I have already eaten." ”

Among the three, Cai Tingkai was more leisurely, he took two bites and asked, "Secretary Gong, why haven't you seen the newspaper in the past two days?" ”

Gong Xiuhua replied calmly: "I don't know, it may be late, Xuzhou has just recovered, and I am afraid that these things will not be able to return to normal for a while." ”

After Xu Zuyi drafted the telegram, handed it to the staff officer below, and then sat down at the table: "Brother Xianchu, we are creating news, as long as Qi County is occupied, Matsui Shigen will be cut into several sections, and the battle will be easy to fight in the future." ”

"That's not necessarily," Zhuang Jihua's voice was a little muffled, his mouth was wrapped in rice, and he swallowed it in three or two: "Okamura Ningji still has a spectrum in his heart, the Tokyo base camp has reinforced him with ten divisions from various battlefields, and he is now when he is weak, this kid I saw in Tianjin back then, and he is considered a military and political excellence among the Japanese generals, and now all his troops are restrained by us, so he can only be a clever woman who is difficult to cook without rice, and watch Matsui Shigen fall into a desperate situation." ”

Speaking of this, his tone changed: "However, when his reinforcements arrive, we will face real difficulties." I'm looking forward to it, though. ”

"Cultural Revolution, what do you mean by that?" Cai Tingkai was a little strange, and the chopsticks holding the dish stopped on the plate all of a sudden.

Xu Zuyi also looked at Zhuang Jihua in confusion, Zhuang Jihua said calmly: "Judging from this battle, the little devil's will to fight is still quite strong, and the series of victories we have achieved have not dealt a big blow to them, so I want to fight a main battle with them, completely defeat their confidence, and completely defeat their will to fight." ”

"Besides, after this operation, we will have to repair for three to five months, and the troops will have to be reorganized and retrained."

After finishing speaking, Zhuang Jihua sighed heavily, this operation exposed a lot of problems, such as the communication problem between the troops, the lack of ability to attack fortified positions, and the problem of coordination between various units in the mobile warfare, all of which must be solved in this renovation.

In addition, most of the troops in the Jiangbei Theater had not changed their equipment, and the equipment of the 68 th Army of the Second Group Army was very poor, and there was a great factor in this defeat, and in addition, the 59 th Army and the 77 th Army of the former 33 rd Group Army had only partially changed their equipment, and the 73 rd Army of the 24 th Group Army, although it was born in the southwest, was also very poorly equipped. The equipment of the other units of the New Eighth Army, the Provisional 15th Army, the 17th Army, and the Third Army was even worse.

Zhuang Jihua has already decided to carry out a major operation on the troops after this operation, not only to change their uniforms, but also to change the generals of the troops; on the one hand, they will eliminate the views of the local central authorities, and on the other hand, they will promote those young generals who are brave and good at fighting; war is the best university, and these young generals will mature very quickly. In addition, those puppet armies must also be reorganized, and Zhuang Jihua already has a reorganization plan in his heart.

In addition, after crossing the Yellow River, the Jiangbei Theater will be too large, and it should be divided into two theaters, one in charge of North China and the other in charge of Huainan.

Gong Xiuhua looked at Zhuang Jihua, she couldn't help crying, she touched her pocket, the telegram she withheld was still in her pocket, she really didn't know how to report this to Zhuang Jihua, she could only curse silently in her heart, God, you are unfair
