Chapter 155: Thanks to the Japanese for underestimating the enemy

The next day, the morning of October 29, 1937. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The Japanese began shelling the Volunteers. The positions on both sides were clearly visible, the mountain artillery was corrected, the shooting was accurate, and quite a few positions were destroyed. Obviously, two regular armies on both sides were fighting an offensive and defensive battle.

The shelling stopped, the infantry charged, and the infantry charge was quickly repulsed, because there were many dead and wounded on the way, and if they did not retreat, those who went up were simply sent to death. The Japanese paid more attention to the other side, and apparently, the other side had a clever commander, and the soldiers hid well during the artillery bombardment.

On the third day, ten charges were organized, and because of the problem of transporting baggage, the shells were gone. The afternoon charge was not spearheaded by artillery bombardment, and the effect was even worse, the other side did not rush to shoot, but the shooting was very accurate.

The devil commander has already regretted that he was too light on the enemy.

In the past, when attacking the volunteers and crusading against the Anti-Japanese Alliance, it was often the case that as soon as the army arrived, the other party immediately dispersed and fled, and then, everyone chased them to fight, and finally destroyed the secret camp in the mountains, uprooted the old roots in the plains, and killed some of their family members by the way. That is, there is no need to prepare a large number of offensive weapons for field battles.

Now, the other party does not run at all, but repairs his position and fights a positional battle with himself. In this way, underestimating the enemy, lack of preparation, etc., are all exposed.

On the fourth day, the baggage was transported to the big stone bridge in the morning, and the transport troops were urgently transported, because the attacking troops were left with nothing to eat.

The baggage, transported by horse-drawn carriage, left the big stone bridge early, and it was logical to reach the position in nine hours, but the reconnaissance troops met them far away and did not see the baggage troops. At three o'clock in the afternoon, the telegram confirmed that something had happened to the baggage troops.

The attacking troops sent a small detachment to meet the baggage, and after walking only twenty miles in the direction of the Great Stone Bridge, they found the battlefield, all the baggage was removed, the corpses of dozens of soldiers were laid on the side of the road, and the carts and horses were gone.

The attacking troops had a huge problem, they were already missing a lunch, and if they did not eat dinner, then the troops would not be able to fight at all.

At the critical moment, the power of the traitor was revealed.

The traitor troops who went out this time were the garrison of Dashiqiao, and there were many locals among them, who were familiar with the terrain, and set out in the morning to collect food everywhere. In the evening, not only did he eat enough, but he also brought back more than 1,000 catties of miscellaneous grains. Apparently, it was looted in a nearby village. The entire Japanese attacking unit ate a multigrain meal in the evening, and finally it was not hungry.

On the fifth day, in addition to the frontal fighting, which remained fierce, both sides focused on food and logistics.

Dalian brought another batch of baggage, and this time the troops transported were doubled, and a garrison of nearly 1,000 people was used to transport them, but more than a dozen mountain roads along the way were bombed, and they were constantly harassed by small troops, and only half of the road was covered in a whole day.

On this day, the grain collection encountered difficulties, the puppet army went out to collect grain troops were attacked, none of the grain collection troops came back with food, and a few small groups of troops simply disappeared.

On this day, the devil's attacking troops were completely out of food. I didn't eat breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Because the baggage could not keep up, the casualties rose sharply, and five or six hundred dead were fine, and four or five hundred wounded did not eat. What to do? The only way to do this is tomorrow's grain.

On the morning of the sixth day, the Japanese attacking troops did not eat and had to make a truce. Fearing that the baggage would be robbed again, more than 500 people were sent to reinforce the baggage troops. This reinforcement was attacked and disturbed more than a dozen times, regardless of the dead and wounded, did not entangle with the bandits, and went straight to the baggage troops, because they heard the gunfire from a distance.

This time, the loss of transport baggage was even greater. The garrison transporting the baggage, apparently captured, stood in a large line on the side of the road, and all the weapons were taken away. Almost all the Koreans and Japanese who transported the baggage died.

Grain, cartloads of grain is still there.

When the Japanese reinforcements, who had lost their physical strength, saw the food, they immediately had the spirit and ran towards the grain truck. When they were not far from the grain truck, they opened fire on both sides of the hillside. Because the reinforcements were hungry for a few meals, their bodies were weak, their reactions were slow, their tactical movements could not be made, and it was very inefficient to return fire. Soon, most of the centaurs were finished.

Reinforcements were about to retreat when the volunteers in ambush on the hillsides on both sides charged. The well-fed volunteers were very strong and numerous, almost killing one of the three, and soon the reinforcements were completely annihilated.

Offensive positions.

By the afternoon, the baggage had not yet arrived. The Japanese army did not eat for several meals and decided to retreat. The wounded were abandoned, heavy firearms were abandoned, and less than two thousand people remained, retreating lightly.

As soon as they evacuated, the intention was discovered, and the Anti-Union emerged from the positions in a row and chased after them with a shout.

The Japanese army really saw their opponents this time, how could these untidy peasants be so powerful! At the beginning, the devils could still shoot back and cover each other and retreat according to tactical movements, but because of their weak bodies and poor movements, they quickly gave up counterattacking and changed to a single escape. And this single escape encouraged the pursuing troops even more.

The retreat turned into an escape.

The slow-runners were surrounded one by one, and a large number of devils committed suicide by pulling grenades. When the commander of the Volunteer Army saw this, he had no choice but to order the shooting to be fired, not to capture the prisoners.

The fastest runner was glad to be out of his pursuers, and gunshots were heard in front of him. Suddenly, the gunfire rang out, and a large number of soldiers fell. It turned out that there were ambushes ahead. These ambushers seemed to have known that they were incapacitated, and rushed up to fight with bayonets. Many Japanese soldiers had no strength at all, so they exploded grenades and committed suicide, and the pursuing volunteers were careless and suffered heavy casualties.

By the time the pursuers caught up, the battle had already been settled here.

Commanding this battle, Xiaolu didn't sleep for several days, and when the good news came, he said, "Order." First, wave the army to the east and liberate Xiuyan. Second, Dong Yuhua was appointed as the county magistrate of Xiuyan County, and Li Chang was appointed as the deputy county magistrate. Third, send troops to liberate Xiuyan and other towns and villages. Fourth, protect the Japanese prisoners of war and treat them carefully. Dandong was asked to quickly send a Japanese interpreter to educate the prisoners about the anti-war. Fifth, the power was clearly opened and the Hashimoto part of the Japanese Kwantung Army's mainland railway team was completely annihilated. Publish the details truthfully. Sixth, report to Yan'an, and the draft of the telegram will be prepared separately. Seventh, build a cemetery for martyrs and complete the work of bereavement and bereavement. ā€

This time, although the Volunteers were victorious and made a fortune, they still suffered thousands of casualties, and only lost 400 on the first day of the attack. Later, when the enemy retreated, the enemy committed suicide and caused many casualties among the soldiers. Many of the enemy's wounded soldiers committed suicide, and the wounded soldiers even killed a nurse and two soldiers.

However, after this major battle, the combat strength of these two units increased rapidly. In addition, they also have the problem of provisions, and if they do not rob the enemy's food, they themselves will go hungry.

Thanks to the enemy for the light enemy.

After the follow-up work was arranged, Xiaolu prepared a telegram to Yan'an, and the tone was that because the enemy underestimated the enemy, our unit annihilated 4,500 enemy troops, including 2,500 devils, more than 2,000 baggage troops and puppet troops.

This time, more than 1,800 people were captured, including more than 300 wounded by devils and 1,000 casualties themselves. At present, the situation is still grim, and the devil puppet army in places such as Anton and Luda may still come to attack.

My next plan is to liberate Xiuyan, destroy the enemy's puppet grassroots organizations, and consolidate the Xiuyan base area. Prepare your armament for a possible enemy attack.
