Chapter 220: Absolute Shock (1)

The cruelty of the Japanese army temporarily repelled the attack of the 99th Regiment, but the brutality of the enemy also aroused the fighting spirit of the 99th Regiment.

Of course, this onslaught of the 99th Regiment played a huge role, and the Japanese front commander was frightened half to death at once, if this was attacked by the second line of defense, then the East Gate position would be completely finished. The Japanese front-line commander who was terrified once again asked Takahashi Tundra Daisa for help, he didn't know how long he could support, and the offensive of the squadron was like a surging river, out of control. And the clever fighting style of the 99th Regiment gave a resounding slap in the face to the Japanese troops who were ready to rely on the fortifications to resist stubbornly.

Takahashi Tundra didn't dare to have any other thoughts this time, and immediately asked for help from Datong after sending all the reserves that were already small in his hands to the East Gate position. Takahashi Tundra knew that at this time the commander of the Takagi Yoshito Brigade was in a meeting in Beiping, and now it was Nakamura Kamiku, the chief of staff of the 39th Infantry Brigade, who was now in charge of the defense of the Datong area. The character of this Nakamura Osa is very similar to his name, and he is very cautious, Takahashi Tundra knows that even if he asks for help now, he will not be able to get reinforcements immediately, and Nakamura's character must be to ask His Excellency the Brigade Commander. However, the powerful offensive of the squadron surprised Takahashi Tundra, such a sharp attack was not something that ordinary Japanese garrisons could withstand.

Just as Takahashi Tundra had predicted, Chief of Staff Nakamura, the Japanese Army's 39th Brigade in Datong, also understood that the situation was urgent and could not be delayed for too long. But the habit he has developed for a long time makes him dare not send troops to reinforce Tianzhen in a hasty manner, on the one hand, because of his own personality and current position, although Nakamura Osa now has heavy troops, but after all, he is only the chief of staff of the 39th Brigade, and he has not even been mixed with the deputy brigade commander, and now Takagi Yoshito is not here, if something happens, he can't afford such a responsibility. The second is to come out of Han Yunhua's brilliant achievements, it is not the first time that Datong supports Tianzhen, as early as when the Fifth Division was stationed in Datong, the Japanese army had sent reinforcements to Tianzhen County, and the number reached more than 3,000, but the result was unbelievable, this reinforcement unit equipped with cavalry, tanks and armored vehicles was ambushed by Han Yunhua's department halfway, and the whole army was wiped out without leaving a single living mouth, and Han Yunhua hugged the grass and beat the rabbit by the way to Tianzhen County. It is precisely because of such a thing that Nakamura Osa does not dare to act rashly. After receiving a telegram from Takahashi Tundra, Nakamura Osa ordered his troops to prepare for departure on the one hand, and sent a telegram to His Excellency the Brigade Commander on the other, which he needed to decide personally.

Originally, a large group of them were plotting in Beiping how to deal with Han Yunhua's department, but they did not expect that Han Yunhua, who was obviously in a weakened period, would dare to take the initiative to provoke the Japanese Empire.

Major General Yoshito Takagi can be sure that Han Yunhua's department must have made full preparations for possible reinforcements from the Datong side, and with the impermeable personality of Han Yunhua's department, it is obvious that it will not leave an obvious handle for the Japanese army, so Major General Takagi Yoshito's first reaction is conspiracy. But the importance of Tianzhen is also self-evident. Tianzheng is at the junction of Shanxi, Chahar and Hebei, bordering Datong in the west, Chahar in the north, and Zhangjiakou in the east. In addition, Tianzhen is an important part of this Beiping secret meeting, and it is absolutely not allowed that the plan has not yet been implemented, and Tianzhen will fall into the hands of the enemy without explanation, so Tianzhen must be rescued.

Rescue is necessary, but it can't be messed around as busy as before, and in the end, there will be no other result except for the loss of troops and the loss of generals. Takagi Yoshito himself did not dare to express his opinions at will, knowing that there were more than a dozen lieutenant generals gathered in Beiping now, and a casual sentence was likely to offend a person he could not afford to provoke at all, so he wisely kicked this issue to General Binshan Yuan.

Han Yunhua's subordinates really hit the waist pole of the Japanese army this time, so that they did not dare to act rashly but had to rescue. If it is left in the past, the big guy can also have a short meeting and discuss it together. But now that the situation is urgent, there is no time to wait for those uncles to talk about it. In the end, General Binshan Yuan personally spoke, ordering the commander of the 39th Infantry Brigade Infantry Wing of the 78th Infantry Brigade, Kobayashi Hengichisa, as the commander of the reinforcements for this rescue of Tianzhen, and led a complete infantry wing under his command and a puppet cavalry regiment to rush to Tianzhen. ,

The actions of the Japanese army were calculated by Han Yunhua, and he received a telegram from the front-line observation post saying that about an infantry wing and a small part of the cavalry of the Japanese army had left the city ten minutes ago and were on their way to Tianzhen. As soon as this news came, the entire front-line command was boiling, and the Japanese army's transfer of some troops could certainly reduce the pressure on Han Yunhua's subordinates, but the most important thing was that it completely held the initiative of the war in his hands. Fewer casualties were inevitable, and more importantly, the Japanese were completely led by the nose.

Han Yunhua looked at these officers in the headquarters and some members of the Jinsui Army Observation Group, and then said loudly: "The Japanese army has fallen into our trap, and now is the time to close the net." Now there are a lot fewer Japanese troops in Datong City, the real Japanese army is less than 3,000 people, and the rest are all puppet troops with weak combat effectiveness, which cannot be a big deal at all, so I hope you can end the battle within three hours and complete the intended goal. Half an hour later, the 1st Assault Brigade was responsible for the siege of the city, and took advantage of the absence of the main force of the Japanese army in Datong to fight me fiercely, but you must remember not to break the troops into the city. The Saber Special Operations Brigade is responsible for attacking the major coal mines outside Datong City and rescuing the miners in the coal mines. For the combat mission of attacking the coal mine, Commander Fu served as the supreme commander of the front, and all cadres above the Jinsui regiment followed Commander Fu's actions......"

Han Yunhua explained very clearly, although Fu Zuoyi's own work and position are very high, ordinary people really can't command him. But it was obvious that Han Yunhua wanted to give him a chance to have a deeper understanding of the mysterious special combat team, and even gave him a great opportunity to steal the division. Commander Fu was originally very surprised by the saber special combat team that performed amazingly along the way, because it was an absolute secret of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, so no one in the entire Inner Mongolia Military Region dared to leak any information to them except for Han Yunhua's personal authorization, although everyone in those soldiers was close at hand, but Commander Fu felt that there was an unbridgeable gap between him and them. Now that Han Yunhua has spoken, why shouldn't he do it himself, so he happily agreed to Han Yunhua's request.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Han Yunhua's troops were ready to stop, just before Han Yunhua's order, this large-scale but extraordinary battle began, and it was finally confirmed that the troops had arrived at the designated position, and the devils in Datong to reinforce Tianzhen had already passed Yanggao, and Tianzhen could be felt in another hour and a half.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Han Yunhua ordered loudly: "Everyone is in place, let's start?" Han Yunhua's order was very simple, and for a while, the troops belonging to the Inner Mongolia Military Region outside Datong City quickly approached Datong City, and at the same time, the artillery positions located in the northwest area of the city began to shell the defensive positions on the periphery of Datong.

The Japanese army was obviously stunned by the sudden blow, what kind of troops are this from, not to mention the strong combat effectiveness, not to mention that even the weapons and equipment are so sophisticated, less than ten minutes after the start of the battle, all the devil strongholds around Datong were declared lost, and even the peripheral positions were crumbling, if it weren't for Nakamura's immediate decision to shrink all the troops to Datong City, relying on the favorable geographical location of the city wall to start organizing a counterattack, otherwise it is likely to be rushed into the city by Han Yunhua's troops as soon as possible.

When the news reached Beiping, the North China Front Army Headquarters was in an uproar, and this Inner Mongolia Military Region is indeed not simple, and it is a watertight link to do things. This trick of repairing the plank road darkly, Chen Cang and adjusting the tiger from the mountain is indeed level. What surprised the bigwigs in the North China Front Headquarters even more was how Han Yunhua's headquarters moved to the vicinity of Datong City unknowingly. You must know that there are dozens of strongholds of the Japanese army around Datong City, although it is obviously impossible to resist the attack of Han Yunhua's troops by relying on these strongholds, but it is still possible to provide the necessary information for the defenders in Datong City, but no one expected that all the devil strongholds along the way were quietly solved by the Saber Special Operations Brigade.

At this point, Major General Takagi Yoshito and General Binshan Yuan knew the seriousness of the matter, and in their minds, since Han Yunhua had transferred half of Datong City's defense force to other places, his purpose was obviously to come to Datong City.

Because the combat effectiveness displayed by Han Yunhua's subordinates is indeed amazing, it is very likely that a bad one will succeed in it. General Binshan Yuan didn't want to be the second of Terauchi Shouichi, because during the period when he was the commander of the North China Front, Terauchi Shouichi was defeated by Han Yunhua, and the continuous loss of troops led to General Terauchi Shouichi having become the laughing stock of those cowards in China, and it was for this reason that General Terauchi Shouyi, who was originally going to be promoted, was still squatting on the cold bench at home, so he didn't want to be driven back to China by the same as General Terauchi Shouichi.

Although it is not clear why Han Yunhua's subordinates took the initiative to launch a war at this time, General Binshan Yuan still decided that he must inflict heavy losses on Han Yunhua's subordinates and deal a blow to the "invading enemy".
