Looking at these Eighth Route Army who came to take over Zhangjiakou and the thousands of puppet Manchu troops standing at the gate of the city, they all felt that they were dazzled. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThese troops in front of them who are not even in uniform are really the Eighth Route Army that makes them fearful?

In fact, not only was the puppet Mongolian army greeted at the city gate dumbfounded, but the Eighth Route Army that came to take over Zhangjiakou felt unbelievable? After all, they're just a district squad!

But the problem is that they were indeed ordered to come and take over Zhangjiakou. Of course, they are the first Eighth Route Army armed force to enter Zhangjiakou, and there will be large troops of the Eighth Route Army in the future, which will also arrive to take over the whole city one after another.

Perhaps it was because he saw the disbelief in the eyes of these pseudo-Mongolian officers and soldiers, and even a little angry. The person in charge of the Zhangjiakou underground party, who led the guerrilla squad over, also briefly explained the reason.

'Brothers of the Mongolian Army, on behalf of the Eighth Route Army, I warmly welcome you to put things in order, join the ranks of our Eighth Route Army, and fight the little devil invaders together in the future.

Maybe you will think why we took over Zhangjiakou. The reason is also very simple, we are the first troops to come. In the future, there will also be a steady stream of main forces of the Eighth Route Army entering the city to take over the defense here.

As for why our main force didn't come, I'm sure you should have guessed it. At present, the main force of our Eighth Route Army is encircling and annihilating the little devils who escaped from here. It may not be long before you hear the good news. ’

After a brief remark, these puppet Mongolian soldiers didn't have much to say. Even if these people who came to take over Zhangjiakou were just guerrilla squads. But they also don't dare to slack off, after all, they are also the armed forces of the Eighth Route Army!

Not long after the district squad entered Zhangjiakou, a heavily armed cavalry battalion also appeared in front of the city gate of Zhangjiakou. The puppet Mongolian army, which was on duty, quickly brought the guerrillas over.

Seeing that the cavalry battalion commander who led the team showed his certificate, the person in charge of the underground party who came in advance also said happily: "Battalion Commander Zhao, you are finally here!" By the way, is your battle over? ”

'It's still a fierce battle! The little devils sent out a lot of planes to cover up, but those little devils didn't think they would survive tonight. Our cavalry battalion came over, and we were also ordered to take over Zhangjiakou and seal all the materials seized in the city.

Soon an infantry regiment will march into the city, and we are only the first troops. Secretary Chen, after you entered the city, they didn't do any demon moths, right? Have you counted all the supplies in the city? ’

'No, Master Ba and Regiment Commander Liu are very cooperative. Those traitors and traitors have also been arrested by them. It's just that I don't know what to do with these insurrectionists for the time being. ’

When the political workers sent by the headquarters arrive, I believe they will come up with a charter. As long as he is a meritorious person, our Eighth Route Army will also remember his merits. If their culpability is not serious, the punishment can also be reduced according to the circumstances! ’

The two leaders of the puppet Mongolian army standing next to Secretary Chen also breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words of the cavalry battalion commander of the Eighth Route Army. After all, didn't they choose to revolt before the battle in order to make a contribution?

Although the commander of the Ba Division, who led the uprising, had contact with the intelligence officers of the Eighth Route Army, and even passed a lot of news to the Eighth Route Army. But merit is merit or demerit, and how to deal with them at that time will ultimately be handed over to the higher authorities for judgment.

Fortunately, the cavalry battalion commander knew that the Eighth Route Army would not execute such an officer who led the uprising. If the crime is too serious, most of them will be sentenced to prison or re-education through labor, but at least they can save their lives.

In addition, those who have made major meritorious contributions will also be given a certain amount of punishment reduction. It can be said that these puppet Mongolian officers who rebelled before the battle at least did not have to worry about being executed by the Eighth Route Army. The rest depends on how many bad things they have done before!

After the cavalry battalion was stationed in Zhangjiakou and received the material warehouse guarded by the puppet Mongolian army, the cavalry battalion also conveyed the situation here to the army commander in the form of a telegram. A garrison infantry regiment was also stationed in Zhangjiakou in the afternoon.

As for the troops of the puppet Mongolian army, the weapons were also received by the Eighth Route Army. Of course, the officers' guns were also confiscated by the Eighth Route Army. Just let them stay in the barracks and wait for the next decision on disposal.

But in terms of food, the Eighth Route Army also gave certain preferential treatment. Even if some soldiers wanted to move around the city, the Eighth Route Army would not stop them. It's just that if you want to get out of the city, you still need to get the consent of the Eighth Route Army.

The infantry regiment stationed in Zhangjiakou in the afternoon also brought He Zhengdao's handling opinions. According to the old rules, if these rebel troops wanted to join the Eighth Route Army, they had to enter the new barracks for intensive training and re-education.

Finally, according to their training results, they will be allocated accordingly. This also means that if these puppet Mongolian soldiers want to continue to stay together as soldiers, I am afraid it is unlikely.

Of course, if you don't want to join the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army will not be reluctant. Even according to their meritorious performance, a certain amount of severance pay is issued, so that they can find their own way. And the officers, basically, did the same.

When the Eighth Route Army successfully took over Zhangjiakou and the infantry regiment began to take over the defense of Zhangjiakou. The 3rd Infantry Division fought for the same day as the Japanese troops who went out of the city. The troops on both sides can be described as having considerable losses.

In the face of these little devils desperately breaking through, Lu Zhencao, the commander of the Third Infantry Division, listened to the call asking for reinforcements, and said angrily: "Reinforcements! No, you must hold back until the evening, there are no conditions to talk about! ”

They also knew that as soon as evening came, the Japanese army, which had lost the support of the air force, was afraid that it would be difficult for them to survive the long night. For this reason, the Japanese army also launched a desperate breakthrough. In their opinion, as long as they fight their way out of the siege, they can survive.

Looking at these desperate little devils, the main battalion commanders who were responsible for stopping them, gritted their teeth even though their faces were full of bitterness and said, "Fight!" Big deal, I can't do it! Bring all the reserves up, we're going to die with the little devils today! ”

The blocking troops, which had been bombarded and shelled by the Japanese air force before, naturally suffered considerable losses. But they all knew that although there were still quite a few main forces in the division, those troops were used for counteroffensives.

At present, their main battalions, although they have suffered heavy casualties. But the number of little devils they killed was also quite large, and they consumed a lot of weapons and ammunition for these little devils who went out of the city, and also created an opportunity for the main force to encircle and annihilate.

It was learned that some positions ended up in white-knuckle battles, and the casualties were very heavy. Looking at Lu Zhencao, who was gradually darkening the weather, after learning that the little devil's plane had finally left again, he finally gave the order to counterattack.

'Damn, these nasty planes have finally flown away!' The artillery regiment was ordered to launch the shelling in advance. The reserve troops, from now on, enter the predetermined attack positions and prepare for a full-scale counterattack! ’

'Yes, Commander! ’

As the combat staff officers issued orders one after another, the artillery regiment of the Third Division, which had not shown much during the day, finally tore off the camouflage clothing on the artillery. One by one, the artillery was also quickly pushed to the artillery position.

The artillery positions used by the Japanese army to break through earlier had already been locked by them. And the little devils who have been fighting for a day have always thought that the Eighth Route Army that blocked them was just a blocking force retained by the Eighth Route Army, and they were not capable of encircling and annihilating them at all.

But they didn't expect at all that in order to prevent them from escaping, He Zhengdao kept the entire Third Infantry Division in the Zhangjiakou area. After learning that the Japanese army had abandoned the city and broken through, the 3rd Infantry Division quickly entered the blocking position set up in advance.

The reason why the main force was hidden was more to paralyze the Japanese army that broke through, so that they felt that they had a chance to break through the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army. Even so, some of them were aggrieved by the troops who served as blockers.

But in Lu Zhencao's opinion, there were no casualties in the war? Compared with scaring this breakout of the little devil away, dragging it in the set ambush circle to encircle and annihilate it is undoubtedly the safest way.

Now that the little devils are also starting to fight hard, they seem to know that the night battle is very unfavorable to them. Even if he knew that there was a certain risk, Lu Zhencao still chose to launch a general attack in advance to give the final blow to these little devils who had been attacking for a long time.

Along with the artillery regiment and the reserved main force, they entered the offensive position one after another, and Lu Zhencao also said resolutely: "Let's start the general attack!" ”

With Lu Zhencao's order issued, the Japanese army who had spent thousands of losses and finally took a blocking position was not yet happy. I saw the shells that fell all over the sky, which surprised the Japanese troops who were preparing to break through the encirclement.

Looking at the attacking troops shrouded in artillery fire, the Japanese garrison officer also said in disbelief: "Na! How can the Eighth Route have such a powerful artillery unit? But before, how could they not be useful? ”

In the face of such an exclamation, the chief of staff of the Japanese army who stayed beside him said with a bitter face: "General, I'm afraid that they have already conspired." Taking advantage of the fatigue of our army's offensive for a day, he dealt us a fatal blow.

Most importantly, it's getting dark. The air force units of the headquarters are afraid that they will not be able to support us. Even if the North China Front is now asked to implement tactical guidance, I am afraid that it will be too late. We're going to have a hard time tonight! ”

When the artillery regiment of the Third Infantry Division began to exert its might, there was also a cheer on many precarious Eighth Route Army blocking positions. Many officers and soldiers who have persevered until now also know that the main force has finally begun a counteroffensive.

'Kill! Get these little devils out of position! Our reinforcements have arrived! ’

Looking at the little devil who was attacking the position, he was shocked by the artillery fire behind him and began to plan to withdraw from the position. Today, the blocking forces, which have lost count of how many Japanese attacks they have repulsed, have also officially launched their first counterattack.

With the only remaining Eighth Route Army on the blocking position, it launched a counterattack with the belief of avenging its comrades. The reinforcements who came to support in the rear also joined the pursuit sequence one after another.

The Japanese army, which had not established any defensive front at all, was soon stunned by a strong counterattack by the Eighth Route Army. Even the stupid little devils know that this time they are really desperate and will not be able to escape again! (To be continued.) )
