Although there was no reinforcement order from the division commander and chief of staff, the commanders of the remaining units of the Japanese army still roared and led all the troops that could be mobilized to kill Xiaohuanglou, and the whole Weicheng fell into a fierce battle.
At the same time that Zhao Zhiyu pounced on Xiaohuanglou, the remaining four squads of the Third Special Operations Squadron rushed to the North Gate, West Gate, South Gate and Dongguanwu respectively, seizing the city gate and clearing the passage for the large army to enter the city.
With Ding Shuyan's cronies leading the way, and the pseudo-Ludong and Pingjian ** military uniforms as cover, the teams walked through the streets and alleys of Weicheng, and it turned out to be extremely smooth. By the time the devil puppet army guarding the city gate found out that something was wrong, the bullets had already flown over, and it was too late to resist.
The city gate was opened one after another, and the strong Weicheng opened its arms to the Eighth Route Army, and it had already secretly moved to the cavalry group composed of six cavalry battalions of the third column, the seventh column, and the eighth column near Weicheng, and entered Weicheng.
The horse's hooves are flying, and the knife is shining! The Japanese puppet army in Weicheng is trembling!
Behind the cavalry group, the main force of the three columns, the troops of the Qinghe Military Region, local armed forces, and militia, with regiments, battalions, brigades, and squadrons as units, swept away the various strongholds and fortifications on the defense line of the Jiqing Highway and Jiaoji Road between Changle and Weicheng, where the Japanese puppet army was extremely empty. To the east of the three columns, the main forces of the seventh and eighth columns of the Eighth Route Army and the troops of the Jiaolai Military Region, local armed forces, and militia formed a north-south flank attack with the main force of the Eighth Route Army in central and southern Lu in the first line of the Chaigou Army, just like a big tide.
At this time, Gaomi Station was busy. Several trains from Changle Station and Weicheng Station arrived at the station one after another, and Major General Toshizaburo McKura, commander of the 32nd Infantry Regiment of the 32nd Division of the Japanese Army, led two brigades of the 210th Infantry Wing and two brigades of the divisional supplementary team arrived at Gaomi.
The troops got off the train, and it stands to reason that the armored patrol cars and trains escorted should be ordered to return to Weicheng and Changle, but the cunning Major General Shunzaburo Maikura did not let the train go, but ordered them all to stop at Gaomi Station, leaving an infantry brigade to cooperate with the Jiaoji Road garrison stationed at Gaomi Station to deploy on the spot to protect the safety of the train.
Needless to say, Major General Shunzaburo McCang made up his mind that if the momentum was not right, he would flee eastward and join up with the 18th Brigade and the 7th Division.
Emperor Hirohito, Prince Zaihito of the Kanin Palace, Hideki Tojo, including Tada Jun, Tsuchihashi Ichi, and Iide Tetsuzo, probably never dreamed that Major General Shunzaburo Maikura, who rushed to Gaomi for reinforcements, actually had this kind of idea!
There is no way, the Eighth Route Army fought several times in Luzhong and Ludong, but they were all killed little devils, and divisions and divisions were annihilated, Major General Maikura Shunzaburo has been stationed in Ludong for so long, and he knows too much about what happened before, but he is not as idiotic as Lieutenant General Iide Tetsuzo! He knew that Liu Yimin was planning and then moving in battles, and he couldn't hide in peacetime, and as soon as he made a move, he would test the knife with the Japanese army's divisional and regiment-level troops, and he never failed. This time, the Eighth Route Army shot at Chaigou, Jinggou, Guanzhuang, and Jingzhi, and Major General Maicang Junzaburo speculated in his heart that Liu Yimin had taken a fancy to the 32nd Division, otherwise Liu Yimin would not have invested so much money to encourage Han Shouchen to rebel on the battlefield at this time.
In fact, Major General Shunzaburo McCang's judgment was really accurate, and the Eighth Route Army really took a fancy to the 32nd Division. However, it is not only the 32nd Division, but also the 1st Chariot Division, Li Wenli's Ludong and Pingjian**, and even more. Think about it, Liu and Luo did their best to set up a big net in the Ludong area, and any little devil who didn't open his eyes and crashed into the net would become a moth that was burned to ashes by the fire.
Major General Shunzaburo McKura's conjecture was soon confirmed. First of all, the rumbling artillery of the first chariot division launched an attack came from the direction of Chaigou, and then the second and third regiments of Ludong and Pingjian ** in the north of Jiaoji Road reported that they had been attacked by a large-scale attack by the Eighth Route Army, and the troops could not resist it, and they were retreating to the Jiqing Highway and Jiaoji Road. Then it was even more dramatic, and there was an earth-shattering sound of cannons from the direction of Chaigou, and even the dirt on the houses in Gaomi City was shaken and fell straight down.
Major General Shunzaburo McKura was so shocked that his glasses fell off. He knew that the 1st Chariot Division was afraid that it would jump into Liu Yimin's trap. However, Major General Shunzaburo McKura still had illusions in his heart, hoping that the 1st Tank Division would be able to rely on the advantages of a huge tank group and full mechanization to withdraw, or at least withdraw the main force.
Major General Shunzaburo McCang showed the good combat quality of the Japanese soldiers at this time, and sent an infantry brigade to meet the chariot division, and sent an infantry brigade to Lubei to meet the second and third regiments of Ludong and Pingsheng, and he led two infantry brigades to guard the Gaomi station to the death, ordering the train to add water and coal, ready to start at any time.
The development of the situation was much faster than the deployment of Major General Toshizaburo Maikura, and the second and third regiments of the puppet Ludong and Pingjian ** in the north of Jiaoji Road did not retreat at all, but fled in a fart, and the Eighth Route Army chased their butts closely and killed them at Gaomi Station.
At this time, Major General Shunzaburo Maikura still had confidence, not counting the remaining troops of the 1st Chariot Division in Gaomi City, the garrison troops of Jiaoji Road and the 210th Wing of the 32nd Division in Gaomi City, he alone had four infantry brigades at hand, in addition to the lack of heavy firepower, that was more than a wing, and he was confident that he could temporarily repel the attack of the Eighth Route Army and wait until the 1st Chariot Division withdrew.
In fact, Major General Shunzaburo McCang wanted to escape by train now, but he didn't dare, he was afraid that after the main force of the 1st Chariot Division withdrew, he would report his escape from the battle, and he couldn't afford it!
I waited for nearly an hour
In an hour, the Japanese army's light tanks could run 60 miles, armored vehicles and automobiles could travel 80 miles, and infantry could travel more than 10 miles.
In this short period of nearly an hour, the troops under the command of Major General Shunzaburo McCang couldn't run even if they wanted to!
The large corps fought, and when it attacked, it was like a tsunami from a mountain. The Eighth Route Army used the attack troops east of the Weihe River to the Gaomi section, with two main columns, the Seventh Column and the Eighth Column, plus the troops of the Jiaolai Military Region, local armed forces and militia, and the two regiments of the puppet Ludong and Pingjian ** located in the north of the road could not escape if they wanted to. If you run slowly, you will be drowned in the attack frenzy of the Eighth Route Army, and you may not be able to afford even a ripple. When Li Hongzao, the head of the puppet Ludong and Pingjian Second Regiment, and Zhang Ruilin, the head of the Third Regiment, each ran into Gaomi Station with 100 soldiers, foaming at the mouth, and lying on the ground like a dead dog, Major General Maicang Junzaburo completely understood that the Eighth Route Army was going to advance from north to south and completely annihilate the 32nd Division and Ludong Pingjian**, including the 1st Chariot Division, which were scattered in various sections.
Major General Shunzaburo McKura no longer hesitated, and ordered the infantry brigade that received the 1st Chariot Division to quickly turn around and rush back to the station to get on the train and retreat. Two armored patrol cars were ordered to move quickly and advance towards Jiaozhou to guard the safety of the railway. The two infantry brigades at the station were ordered to get on the train, start the train and advance towards Jiaozhou. The 3rd Infantry Brigade and the Jiaoji Road Garrison of the 2nd and 3rd Regiments of Ludong and Pingjian were ordered to stay behind to block the Eighth Route Army, cover the infantry brigade responsible for receiving the 1st Division of the Chariot Regiment to withdraw to the station, and then get on the car together and retreat eastward.
After giving the order, Major General Shunzaburo McCang was just about to board the train and flee eastward when he heard the sound of the "day," and the artillery of the Seventh and Eighth Columns of the Eighth Route Army began to test-fire at Gaomi Station. Immediately afterwards, the alert troops reported that the troops on both wings of the Eighth Route Army rushed up and cut off the Jiaoji Road, and the armored patrol cars and trains could not move!
At this time, the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the south of Jiaoji Road was pursuing the 1st Chariot Division and the 212th Wing, the remnants of the puppet Ludong and Pingjian ** to the north.
Xin Yonggong, the head of the Fourth Regiment of the Puppet Ludong Peace Construction **, was the luckiest person on the battlefield of Chaigou.
Because the Japanese instructor Kuroda was killed by the Eighth Route Army, Chiba Shaozuo, the captain of the Second Brigade of the 212th Wing of the Japanese Army, split his two guards in front of Xin Yonggong. Therefore, in the next battle, Xin Yonggong did not fight as actively as before.
By the time the Japanese tank division was blocked by the anti-tank trenches of the Eighth Route Army, Xin Yonggong knew that the Japanese army had run out of gas and would be completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army sooner or later. The reason is very simple, he has never even seen the fortifications of the Eighth Route Army, and the Japanese army has never seen it, so he restrained the arrogant Japanese army to the death. With such a large amount of capital invested by the Eighth Route Army, it must be the first division of the Japanese army's chariots to look good.
It just so happened that in order to free up the front of the 1st Chariot Division, the Japanese army sent Xin Yonggong's 4th Regiment to the east side of Chaigou to cover and assist on the flank. Xin Yonggong's opportunity has come!
It's a pity that Xin Yonggong used to follow Li Wenli** and join the enemy as a traitor, and he was a hardcore traitor in the eyes of the Eighth Route Army, and he did not establish any contact with the Eighth Route Army. The artillery group of the Eighth Route Army began to counterattack, and Xin Yonggong's Fourth Regiment also dropped bombs in droves above its head, and the soldiers were blown up to the point of crying and calling their mothers.
Xin Yonggong was in a hurry, so he ran away with his troops. However, he didn't run in the direction of Gaomi, nor did he run in the direction of Chaigou, so the Eighth Route Army would misunderstand that he was attacking! Xin Yonggong led his troops eastward until they reached the Zhugong River, then stopped, ordered the soldiers to put up their guns, raise their hands, and wait for the Eighth Route Army to come and take prisoners.
From the morning to the present, the Xin Yonggong regiment has been used as cannon fodder by the 212th Wing of the Japanese army, and there are less than 500 people left in a regiment of 1,800 people. Xin Yonggong was dizzy in distress, and his mouth kept chanting: "I knew why I had to do it today!" I knew why I had to do it in the first place! ”
Xin Yonggong didn't wait long, after the Eighth Route Army launched a counterattack, soon a unit rushed up and disarmed Xin Yonggong's regiment.
Xin Yonggong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
