On April 6, 1938, the Japanese Isogu Division attacking Taierzhuang had completely collapsed, and the national army on the front line of Taierzhuang attacked on all fronts, killing the sky. Most of the Japanese motor vehicles were destroyed, and the rest were also paralyzed due to lack of gasoline, and they ran out of ammunition and food, and they were so frightened that they scattered and fled for their lives. The morale of the national army was high, and the legions pursued the enemy fiercely, like a wind sweeping away leaves, unstoppable.

In the end, the commander of the Isogu Division led the remnants of more than 10,000 people to break through and enter Yixian City, and began to defend the door behind closed doors, losing all confidence in the battle, and there was no longer the slightest threat to the national army. In the battle of Taierzhuang, the national army won a complete victory.

After the war, the Nationalist Army counted the battlefield, and only buried nearly 10,000 Japanese corpses, the total number of enemy casualties was more than 20,000, more than 30 tanks were destroyed, more than 70 artillery pieces of various kinds were captured, more than 40 combat vehicles, more than 70 armored vehicles, more than 100 automobiles, hundreds of machine guns, and tens of thousands of rifles. After the good news came out, the whole country of China was ecstatic, and the morale of the front-line troops was greatly boosted.

At this point, the offensive and defensive battle of Taierzhuang came to an end. On the 8th, the Front Army explicitly ordered the Sakamoto detachment to be placed under the command of the 10th Division. In the battle, the 5th Division suffered 6,759 casualties; The 10th Division suffered 5,225 casualties.

After the battle of Taierzhuang, the Japanese base camp judged that the battle of Taierzhuang meant that Chiang Kai-shek had concentrated the main force near Xuzhou to prepare for a decisive battle (the base camp believed that the presence of Chiang Kai-shek's descendant Tang Enbo's army in Taierzhuang could be proof). Taking advantage of this opportunity to capture Xuzhou will definitely deal a fatal blow to the Chinese army and at the same time create a favorable situation for the capture of Wuhan. Based on the above judgment, the base camp issued an order to capture Xuzhou on April 7.

According to this order, on April 10, the North China Front formulated a guiding policy for the Xuzhou operation, dividing the Battle of Xuzhou into three phases: The first phase was the preparatory stage, mainly to replenish the strength of the 2nd Army, and to assign the 114th Division (1 brigade owed), the 16th Division, the 2nd Tank Brigade, the 3rd and 6th Wing of the Field Heavy Artillery Strategy, the 1st Reserve Infantry Brigade, and the Independent Engineer Wing to the 2nd Army, and at the same time formulate a coordinated plan with the Central China Dispatch Army, so that the Central China Dispatch Army would advance from Jiangyin to the northwest and contain the Chinese army south of Xuzhou. The second phase is the outer combat phase of Xuzhou. At this stage, an attack was launched in the form of a surprise attack, with a force moving south from the west side of Weishan Lake, quickly occupying the west and southwest areas of Xuzhou, and encircling Xuzhou with the Central China Army; In addition, a force (about 1 division) crossed the Yellow River in the area from Lanfeng (Lankao) to Fanxian County, cutting off the Longhai line east of Lanfeng and the Pinghan line south of Zhengzhou. The third phase is the stage of the general attack on Xuzhou, capturing Xuzhou, and capturing Kaifeng and Zhengzhou.

On April 12, the North China Front issued a preparatory order for the capture of Xuzhou, and at the same time assigned four brigades of the 114th Division and one brigade of the 16th Division to the 10th Division to make up for the losses of the 10th Division in the battle of Taierzhuang and restore combat effectiveness. After the 10th Division was strengthened, the Nagase Detachment (based on the main force of the 39th and 40th Infantry Wings), which had been assigned to the garrison, was replaced to participate in the Xuzhou operation.

In order to contain the main force of the Eighth Route Army, on 4 April, the North China Front Army Headquarters drew up an operational plan for the 9th Route of the Jinnan Front to besiege the China Army, and planned to take the commander of the First Army of the North China Front Army, Xiangyue Qingji, as the commander, and lead more than 30,000 people from the 20th Division, the 16th Division, the 108th Division, and the 109th Division to attack the southeastern Shanxi region by 9 routes, in an attempt to encircle and annihilate the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army and other units and the Kuomintang troops operating in this area in the area of Yushe Wuxiang in Liao County. At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of the north-south communication line and prevent the harassment of the Eighth Route Army from affecting the Battle of Xuzhou, the North China Front Army Headquarters ordered the Mongolian Corps to take the 6th Division and the 26th Division as the main force, and to attack Han Yunhua's troops entrenched at the junction of Cha (Har), Sui (Yuan), Hebei (Hebei), and Jin (Shanxi).

Lieutenant General Pan Liannuma, who received the order, dispatched the main forces of the 6th Division and the 26th Division to besiege the Inner Mongolia Military Region in four directions according to the plan formulated before the war, together with a large number of puppet troops.

After returning to Daqingshan on March 25, Han Yunhua has been busy organizing troops and training new troops, and by April 12, the Inner Mongolia Military Region had 88 regiments, 99 regiments, new 1st regiments, new 2nd regiments, new 3rd regiments, new 4th regiments, new 5th regiments, new 6th regiments, guard regiments, independent regiments, 1st cavalry regiment, 2nd cavalry regiment, 3rd cavalry regiment, 4th cavalry regiment, 7th cavalry regiment, 8th cavalry regiment, 9th cavalry regiment, 10th cavalry regiment, fire support regiment, 1st artillery regiment, The Second Artillery Regiment and other regular units of 10 infantry regiments, 8 cavalry regiments, and 3 machine artillery regiments, as well as four special combat units with super combat effectiveness, eight newly formed independent county brigades (battalions), and 40 district squadrons (companies). In addition, due to the tense war in the southeast of Shanxi, Han Yunhua and Shen Yuquan decided after discussing it that the Fifth Cavalry Regiment that had promised to be sent to the headquarters should be rebuilt immediately, and at the same time, 156 reserve special combat members of the newly formed Sixth Cavalry Regiment and the First Special Operations Reserve were sent to the headquarters to protect the safety of the headquarters chief. ,

On the morning of 13 April, the Saibei Military Region, which was first active in the Guisui area, sent a telegram saying that a large number of devils had come out of Guisui City by car or on foot, with a total strength of about 15,000 troops, and were heading for the central banner of the right wing of Chahar, where the 99th Regiment was stationed. Soon the Military District Guard Regiment also sent a telegram saying that about a company of Japanese troops had been found at the junction of Fengzhen and Datong, and that it was also equipped with cavalry and a large number of artillery. Later, the new regiment also sent a telegram saying that an infantry wing and a cavalry wing from the direction of Zhangjiakou had been connected with the troops on the periphery of the new regiment, and that these devils had come by train, so the speed was quite fast. The southern front in charge of Shen Yuquan also reported that the infantry of the 39th Brigade of the 20th Infantry Division of the Japanese Army was killing the base area with the cooperation of a tank brigade and a puppet infantry division.

Han Yunhua calculated that the Japanese army attacking the base area this time reached more than 45,000 people, which is equivalent to two first-class divisions or three third-class divisions of the Japanese army. The most troublesome thing for Han Yunhua is that three of the four devils are equipped with cavalry, two are equipped with chariots, and one is equipped with a large number of cars, which means that the devils who came this time are strong enough in terms of firepower and mobility, far from being comparable to the combined troops sent by Terauchi Shouichi and Hideki Tojo last time. Moreover, this time the devils came very quickly, and the military region did not even have time to transfer the masses, and the situation was very critical.

On the one hand, Han Yunhua sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army explaining the enemy situation, and on the other hand, he urgently ordered all units of the military region to rely on the favorable terrain to block the attack step by step, and the county brigades and district squads in the base areas should cooperate with the county party committees and county governments to transfer the masses in the shortest possible time and ensure that the walls and fields are cleared. At the same time, Han Yunhua ordered the intelligence section to immediately find out the detailed numbers and firepower dispositions of the Japanese troops attacking the base areas, and also to find out the remaining troops in Guisui, Baotou, Wuchuan, Tumut Left Banner, Tumut Right Banner, Tuoketuo, Liangcheng, Siziwangqi, and other counties and cities. The "Flying Dragon," "Cheetah," and "Eagle" special combat teams also quickly attacked, freely searching for fighter planes, and the "Young Phoenix" special combat team led 867 new members who had participated in the special combat team training to go to the front line to cooperate with the regiments and act as snipers on the battlefield.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Qian Zhuangfei, chief of the intelligence section, personally rushed over from Fengzhen to report the enemy situation to Han Yunhua. After more than half a year of development, Qian Zhuangfei's intelligence department has also developed to an extremely astonishing extent, with the strong support of Han Yunhua's large quantities of silver dollars and gold and the most advanced weapons, the intelligence department led by Qian Zhuangfei has grown from a small group of only 30 people to include Xinghe County, the early stage of the Chahar Right Wing, the Central Banner of the Chahar Right Wing, the rear banner of the right wing of Chahar, Fengzhen, Zhangbei County, Huai'an County, Tianzhen County, Yanggao County, Zhuozishan County, Jining, Guisui, Baotou, Datong, Zhangjiakou, Xuanhua, Kangbao, Liangcheng, Siziwang Banner, Wuchuan, Tumut Left Banner, Tumut Right Banner and other counties and cities including a huge intelligence network. Qian Zhuangfei, a former Kuomintang officer, now leads the largest intelligence network under the jurisdiction of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, with more than 800 core agents alone, and an armed force composed of 36 elite members of the same army who have been drawn from the special combat team; although the number of armed forces directly under this intelligence section is only more than 200, its influence is greater than that of any regiment in the Inner Mongolia Military Region.

The reason for this is that after the special combat team became an army, in order to pass on the bloody killing order, which threatens the puppet army traitors, and at the same time to better cooperate with the work of the intelligence department, Han Yunhua formed this armed team called "Shadow" at the request of Qian Zhuangfei, and then the bloody killing order spread in the counties and cities around the base area, and one by one the big and small traitors, puppet army officers, and Japanese stragglers were assassinated, although everyone does not know where this blood killing order came from, but they all know that this blood killing order is aimed at the Japanese puppet army and traitor lackeys. It dealt a great blow to the traitors and puppet armies in the Cha (Har), Sui (Yuan), Hebei (Hebei), and Jin (Shanxi) regions, and at the same time made some puppet army traitors who were willing to repent strengthen their determination to repent.

I haven't seen Han Yunhua for half a year, and when I saw Han Yunhua's somewhat tired face, Qian Zhuangfei was indescribably excited in his heart. Although the Communist Party vigorously enlisted the service of the Kuomintang troops, its defense against the Kuomintang officers was no less than that of the Kuomintang against the Communist Party, and he, a Kuomintang officer with a background in intelligence, was even more unpopular with the Chinese Communists, and he was only a small platoon commander when he joined the Eighth Route Army for a long time. But since he met Han Yunhua, it can be regarded as a time to operate, Han Yunhua trusts him very much, and hands over the largest but only intelligence department in the base area to him to lead. Not long ago, when the eastward detachment attacked the Huai'an area, Qian Zhuangfei, with the cooperation of Ye Baoguo, assassinated Liang Yunfu, a big traitor in the Zhangjiakou area, and avenged half of his family.
