Chapter 152: Attack on Anqing
The development of coal chemical plants is very fast, with the cement provided by the cement plant, the refractory bricks fired from the bauxite mine, the generator furnace and the reaction furnace have been built, and the output of coal coke and coal tar has been greatly improved.

"By boiling point fractions, we have produced toluene, benzene and the most widely used kerosene from coal tar." Yuan Chunlin, the director of the factory, introduced to Yang Tianfeng excitedly, "Several experts have given us good guidance and suggestions, but it's a pity that ......"
"Well, it is estimated that there will be experts and scholars to help us soon. But we also need to train our own experts. Yang Tianfeng smiled bitterly and said: "From scratch, the achievements of the coal chemical plant are gratifying, and my Yang knows your hard work." If there are any deficiencies in terms of life and treatment, you must raise them, and I will try my best to meet them. ā
"I have a salary, and I don't eat badly." One technician said: "The main thing is that there is room to use our modest talents. ā
"General Yang is hard, fighting outside, so that we can work with peace of mind and do our best for the Anti-Japanese War."
Yang Tianfeng said a few words of humility, and discussed the development plan of the coal chemical plant with everyone, before saying goodbye to everyone.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.
A powerful flash of white light was followed by a deafening explosion.
The earth shook violently at the sound of the explosion, followed by a second and a third ...... There were loud noises, gunsmoke and dazzling flashes.
Several large craters with a depth of two or three meters appeared on the ground, and all the ground was leveled within a few dozen meters of the center of the explosion, and most of the fortifications, bunkers, and barbed wire fences flew into the sky.
In the early morning of May 5, 1939, on the eve of the first anniversary of the fall of Anqing, the 526th Brigade of the 176th Division of the Kuomintang Gui Department and the 9th Guerrilla Column, with the support of Hao Wenbo's troops of the puppet army, launched the largest night attack on the Japanese troops stationed in Anqing.
One brigade and three regiments, as well as the division's artillery and the Ninth Guerrilla Column, have a total strength of nearly 10,000. The main attacking force climbed the wall into the city from the gap in the broken city wall on the north side of the Yuhong Gate, and opened the Yuhong Gate, which had been closed by the Japanese army for a year, and engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese army in the city. The Ninth Column, after lurking in place, with the cooperation of a battalion of regular troops, launched a fierce attack on the military airfield east of Anqing.
The effect of the sudden use of the flying thunder cannon was striking, and more than half of the squadron's airfield defenders were crushed by this heavy bombardment.
"Chong, rush, give it to Lao Tzu!" Mo Gui, the commander of the Ninth Column, jumped up and shouted, his ears ringing, and he didn't even hear his voice clearly.
"Rob, grab the plane." Deputy Commander Li Xingui still remembered the pre-war order and shouted to remind him.
The above agreed, and a good plane gave 100 shotguns, 10 grenade launchers, 5 steel fists, and a bonus of 20,000 yuan; Bad planes, even parts, but there are no such generous rewards. There is also oil, which can also be used to offset the money and materials!
It's difficult, but it's also tempting. The Ninth Column was regarded as a guerrilla force, and its guns, ammunition, and food were one layer worse than that of the regular army, and the planes were of no use to them. But since you can get so many benefits, then take some trouble to pull it back.
Yang Tianfeng finally couldn't hold back, and sent a telegram to Liao Lei, not mentioning the attack on Anqing, but saying that if he had the opportunity, he could get an airplane or aircraft parts and change weapons.
Liao Lei really needs new weapons, and he also doesn't have a lot of money, anyway, if he wants to attack Anqing, then take the sheep and get it if he can! But when the order came to the bottom, he had already lowered Yang Tianfeng's price by half.
On the way to the impact, in addition to the stumps and broken arms everywhere, broken guns, there were many devils with their eyes wide open, and their facial features were bleeding and died on the ground. The devil didn't know that when the thunder bombarded, he couldn't lie on the ground, but should squat on the ground, and these were all shocked to death by huge shocks and shock waves.
"You're old!" Mo Gui scolded Guangxi dialect and kicked away the corpse of the devil who tripped him.
After so many battles, this one is enjoyable. Mo Gui knew very well how difficult it was to fight the devils of a squadron, and with this sudden bombardment, how many soldiers under his command were killed and wounded!
Although he didn't know what this weapon was called, this weapon was now from the 176th Division, and even the artillery was transferred from the division, but Mo Gui had already made up his mind that there must be a few rough and mighty guys.
The battle in the city was still raging, and the 526th Brigade had already poured into two regiments, passing through Guojiaqiao and Guandi Temple to the north, and straight into the main street of the North Gate. The Japanese Qingye Brigade stationed at Jinsheng Street pursued from Dazhuzi Lane in the south and intercepted from Xiaosu Road in the east.
Anqing is not as good as Kaifeng, there are many enemies around, and there is the convenience of the Yangtze River. The battle plan of the command also has a time limit, which is tighter than opening the seal, attacking in the early morning, and the retreat will begin at a slight dawn. It only took five or six hours to fight, and Mo Ruyang, the brigade commander sitting in Yuhongmen, was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, and several times he wanted to go to the front line to personally command, but he was forcibly stopped by the staff officers and guards.
"The airport has been captured, and Mo Gui is ordered to divide his troops to attack Baguamen and contain the Japanese army." Mo Ruyang stood in the city tower, raised his binoculars, and observed the battle in the city.
In the city of Anqing, the sound of gunfire and explosions spread everywhere, the arrangement of the chaotic battle was carried out quite thoroughly, and several fires were also ignited.
"Order Zhang Tuan, don't fight to the death with the enemy in front of you, divide the troops and make a detour, break the wall and open the way, and go straight to the enemy's headquarters." Mo Ruyang took off his military hat, and was so anxious that he was sweating, "Isn't it all arranged, why can't it be played?" ā
It is easy to use a new tactic, but it is difficult to use it skillfully. Especially at the lower level, it takes time, drills, and practical exercises and summaries to fully understand and be able to use flexibly and skillfully.
Let's talk about attacking Kaifeng, despite the great achievements. But Yang Tianfeng and Dong Wanxuan still made the same old mistake and had a long frontal hard fight with the enemy who blocked the attack. Although he later broke the wall and detoured and divided his troops, the execution was not resolute and half a beat slower.
The current 526 Brigade Assault Regiment also makes the same mistake, that is, the difference between being on the front line and being in the command headquarters, fighting fiercely, often lacking a little calm.
Despite this, the attack on Anqing also achieved much greater results than in history. Under the guidance provided by Hao Wenbo's headquarters, the support group approached the area of Jixianmen in a roundabout way, forcing the Japanese headquarters to move outside the city. Subsequently, the support regiment engaged in a fierce battle with some Japanese troops left behind in the headquarters, and under the cover of night and ruins, they suddenly used flying thunder cannons and attacked the enemy headquarters in one fell swoop.
The defenders of the Qingye Brigade stationed in Anqing were attacked from the front and rear at the big corner, and with heavy casualties, they fled east along the Xiaosu Road and fled out of the city.
The sky was faint, and the sporadic battles in the city had not stopped, but Mo Ruyang had to give the order to retreat.
