Chapter 93 The sky is long in the midst of the Five Cities Uprising

Although the Yongji Battle for nearly a month ended with the loss of Yongji, the withdrawal of troops from Hanyang, the occupation of Fenglingdu, and the failure of the squadron. However, this battle gave the squadron time and space to win, and after the Yongji War, the squadron's defense in Zhongtiao Mountain was basically stable, and the forward position; defense in depth; The logistical supply has been connected into a system, and everything is in order. Although the Japanese army occupied Fenglingdu, they were afraid that the squadron in the Zhongtiao Mountains would cut off their rear road, so they still did not dare to raise troops to cross the river.

After the end of the Yongji Campaign, a few months later, the Japanese army often carried out large-scale military sweeps on Zhongtiao Mountain, but Yiyi was repelled and disintegrated by the squadron, and a flesh-and-blood Great Wall was erected on Zhongtiao Mountain.

In 199, the first snow fell, and the rain turned Mt. Nakajo into a pale earth with silver snakes and wax statues. Because of the successive losses of Yongji and Fenglingdu, the forward command of the First Theater decided to abandon Ruicheng, and the troops stuck to Zhongtiao Mountain, while Wei Lihuang also moved the headquarters from Yuanqu to Pinglu.

A unit stood in the snow, each with its waist straight and waiting for the review, Bai Long and Shen Shaofan stood in front of this army together, and the company commanders of each company were checking the equipment for the soldiers.

Bai Long said: "Our special battalion has a total of 1,550 people, all in place, ready to set off at any time. ”

"Dragon! This mission is different from the usual, and you must be extra careful. Shen Shaofan instructed on the side.

Bai Long smiled: "You can rest assured!" ”

Shen Shaofan smiled slightly and said, "I have always been very relieved about your affairs. ”

At this time, Chu Huaiyue, the deputy commander of the special service battalion, ran over and saluted: "Report to the regiment!" All 1,550 people in the special battalion have arrived and the equipment has been cleared, please instruct! ”

After Shen Shaofan returned a military salute, he looked at the brothers in front of him and said, "Go now!" ”

"Yes." After Chu Huaiyue saluted, he turned back to the team and shouted: "All the special service battalions have turned to the left. ”

Just listen to the sound of turning around. "Let's go!" Then the troops walked into the distance in the sound of neat steps, and Chu Huaiyue followed behind the troops and shouted the slogan "One, one, two, one............"

Bai Long saluted Shaofan and said, "Shaofan, don't worry!" I will definitely bring Xiao Peijun and his troops back safely from Henan. ”

The Japanese army failed to sweep Zhongtiao Mountain several times, and the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters decided to use blockade means to isolate Zhongtiao Mountain, so it guarded the area from Jiaozuo to the area north of the Puyang River to the south of the Puyang River. Yuntai Mountain; Several anti-Japanese base areas in Lin Shushan launched many brutal 'Sanguang' sweep troops, one of which continued to the depth of the southern end of Taihang Mountain, and the Japanese troops in the five cities north of Henan were empty. Xiao Peijun, the deputy commander of the local Imperial Allied Army, thought that the time for the uprising had come, and decided to launch the 'Five Cities Uprising' north of Henan, but the ensuing events made Xiao Peijun unexpected, Hasegawa suddenly made a major transfer of the defense area of the Imperial Allied Army, and the defense of the 1st Army with ten thousand swords began to move south to Wenxian to block the 'Yellow River channel' leading to Zhongtiao Mountain at that time, and transferred the army of Faliang to Puyang, transferred the 17th Brigade of the Japanese Army in Puyang to Xinxiang, and then came to hold Hebi; Anyang; and Puyang three cities to prevent any unfavorable moves by the Imperial Allied Army. Seeing that the uprising was about to be stillborn, Xiao Peijun was in a hurry and turned to the National Youth League stationed in Zhongtiao Mountain. Wei Lihuang and others studied it and decided to hand over this task to the National Youth League to take over the uprising of Xiao Peijun.

Bailong's spy battalion is the unit that went to pick up the uprising of Sho Peijun and others. A month ago, a detachment composed of elite reconnaissance battalions began to search for a route for this mission, and after 30 days of reconnaissance, it found a relatively safe passage, starting from Zhongtiao Mountain, traveling north along the Junling Mountains at the junction of Shanxi and Henan provinces, crossing the Qin River and the Dan River, and then going all the way north into the Taihang Gorge in the Taihang Mountains, and then eastward through the Yuxia Pass and entering Linzhou County in Henan.

Shaofan of the Youth League Department of the National Youth League; Tianfang; Zhiyu and several other major officers immediately planned the military operation in response to the uprising, codenamed 'Zhongtian Changkong', Bailong's special service battalion codenamed 'Zhongtian', and the Youth League headquarters of the National Youth League codenamed 'Changkong'. Xiao Peijun's troops will revolt in Linzhou, and then there will be a special battalion and the rebel army to open up the Japanese army's defense line in Linshu Mountain, quickly enter the southern end of the Taihang Mountains, and then follow the route found by the reconnaissance detachment to return to Zhongtiao Mountain, the plan seems to be extremely simple, but there are too many unknowable factors along the way, and the special battalion faces many unknown dangers. The Japanese army did not have more troops to block all the mountains at the junction of Shanxi and Henan provinces, and the secret battalion made a fairly smooth secret march to Yuxia Pass.

On a vacant lot under the Yuxia Pass.

Bai Long unfolded the map and looked at Chu Huaiyue and said, "Walking to the east is the devil's defense area." ”

"yes!" Chu Huaiyue said: "I don't know what happened to Xiao Peijun." ”

"Ordered the troops to immediately enter the assault positions. Do you know that the operation must be kept secret? "White Dragon Road.

Chu Huai lowered his head: "Yes!" ”

The position entered by the special service battalion was also carefully selected by the reconnaissance detachment, located at the junction of Shanxi and Henan, north of Lin Shu Mountain and in a straight line in Lin County, and the position of the devils was more than 200 meters.

And Colonel Peijun's troops have been in the city by the Japanese brigade to the death, and the troops are very attentive to every step, but fortunately, the Japanese troops swept by Lin Xishan are not good at fighting; All the troops of the puppet army were transferred to Linzhou to prepare to participate in the next sweeping operation, and all the headquarters of the two armies were in Linzhou, which gave Xiao Peijun a great opportunity, and he decided that the troops would hold an uprising in Linzhou in the middle of the night.

At midnight, the Japanese army headquarters in Linzhou. Hasegawa hurriedly called Maeda Sae over.

Maeda Sae asked, "Your Excellency, what is the matter with me?" ”

Hasegawa said: "'Drift' sent a very important piece of information. He handed it to Maeda.

Maeda Sawei couldn't help but be shocked when he saw it: "The first part of the National Youth League wants to take over the rebellion of the school Peijun?" ”

"Very reliable! Don't hesitate to arrest Xiao Peijun and his henchmen immediately, and if they resist, they will be punished on the spot. Hasegawa Road.

At this moment, there was a boiling outside, and artillery fire was in the sky. Urging Fa Liang's Army 1; The divisions had already launched attacks on the various Japanese headquarters in Linzhou, including the headquarters at Hasegawa.

"Your Excellency! They've already done it. Maeda exclaimed.

Hasegawa slapped the table and said, "Yaga! Immediately send troops to suppress it. ”

"Hey!"

The cold night boiled heart, the day of Xiao Peijun's waiting finally came, he waited for two years, he gave in for two years under the authority of the Japanese army, he looked at the oath under the stage; The brothers of the 4th Army said excitedly: "Brothers! You are all good brothers who have followed our school for many years. Since the Lugou Bridge Incident on July 7, 197, we have been wearing the skin of two dogs with a clear conscience, and have been scolded by the people as traitors and a dog of devils, but now we don't have to endure it anymore, we have to kill from here into Taihang, enter Zhongtiao Mountain, and drive the devils out of China like other Chinese ** people. I declare the 'Five Cities Uprising' to begin now. ”

"Oh!" The soldiers in the audience cheered and threw the caps of the Imperial Cooperative Army into the air.

Xiao Peijun looked at Fa Liang and raised his flare gun to shoot three signal flares, and suddenly the east gate of Linzhou; Simon; At the same time, gunfire rang out at the north gate, and the 'Five Cities Uprising' was in full swing. In Linzhou, there were three divisions of the Faliang Army plus three divisions of Lin Zixiao's army to the headquarters of the Japanese army; The command post launched an attack at the same time, Guan Zhengpeng's 4th Army had the strongest combat effectiveness, his troops sneaked out of Linzhou County early, touched the devils, saw signal flares behind the position of Lin Xishan, and launched an attack on the Japanese position, and Bailong's troops also launched an attack at the same time. There was a mutiny in the Imperial Allied Army in Linzhou County, Hasegawa panicked, mobilized the troops on the northern defense line of Lin Xishan, and returned to reinforce, so that the position of Lin Xishan on the northern line was seriously empty, and after a lightning sneak attack by Bailong and Guan Zhengpeng, the whole department could not parry, and the whole retreat to the south, and the special service battalion and the 4th Army immediately held their positions after capturing the position, resisting Lin Xishan; The counterattack of the Japanese troops on the positions on the southern two fronts.

Colonel Peijun's troops rushed all the way to the west gate, but by this time the Japanese reinforcements had arrived, and the two armies met on the western outskirts, and the rebel troops were suppressed on a hillside, and the Japanese army carried out a continuous attack on the hillside.

Urging Fa Liang to run up from the bottom of the hill with his troops, seeing that he had just experienced a desperate white-knuckle battle, Urging Fa Liang pursed his lips and said, "Big brother! I can't rush out! I charged several times and folded many of my brothers. ”

Lin Zixiao said on the side: "I'll lead people to rush to the side." ”

"Nope! In this way, we will disperse our forces and rush together, and if we don't succeed, we will become benevolent. Xiao Peijun took off his coat and picked up a crooked handle and shouted: "Brothers, rush with me, rush out of Lin Shushan, we are really the best people." Come on! ”

"Rush!" All the soldiers put their rifles on their bayonets and rushed towards the Japanese positions with shouts, and Xiao Peijun took the lead with a dozen machine gunners to line up in a fan formation and shoot at the devil formation. The devil did not show weakness, and the troops also swarmed up, and the two troops surged opposite each other like two waves, colliding with each other; Pester; The two armies launched an extremely tragic white-knuckle battle. , come to blame that on weekdays, these imperial allies fight guerrillas and are scattered by the guerrillas; As soon as it dispersed, it collapsed, but today the devil seems to see a different army, and would rather die than give in; The courage is extraordinary, the whole battlefield is full of the sound of bayonets colliding, some soldiers and devils die together, some just stab one devil to death by another devil in the back, the bayonet is still fighting, and if it is broken, it is simply smashed with the butt of a gun, some are fighting with the devil hand-to-hand, pinching each other's throats, some are knocked with stones, and there is a scuffle. But the devil's combat effectiveness is still stronger than that of the rebel troops, the rebel troops were once again beaten back to the hillside and surrounded by devils, at this critical juncture, the devil's back gunfire was loud and screaming, and the white dragon personally led a special battalion and Guan Zhengpeng 4th Army to come to support, and the devil was killed and rubbed his hands together.

"Haha......" Xiao Peijun laughed and shouted, "China will not die." Brothers, rush with me! ”

"Rush—"

The trumpet sounded once, the troops had a scuffle with the Japanese army, and all the things that the soldiers had to vent in the past two years were all vented today, and they were fighting for their own honor, for their oath, and for the future of China.

The rebel army was intercepted by the Japanese reinforcements in the western suburbs of Linzhou County, and Long and Zhengpeng led their troops to rescue, and another charge and the shouts of the soldiers sounded on the battlefield. Will Hasegawa easily let go of this unit that betrayed the Imperial Army? Naturally, it won't, so what will be their fate in the future? And has the mysterious 'Floating' infiltrated the National Youth League?

Xiao Peijun led his troops to launch the 'Five Cities Uprising', which was originally a very well-arranged operation, but although the information of 'Floating' could not allow Hasegawa to control Xiao Peijun and others in advance, it allowed Hasegawa to understand in detail the retreat route of the rebel troops and the White Dragon's special service battalion.

The headquarters of Hasegawa in Hayashi, originally set up by Hasegawa to deal with Hasegawa's Eighth Route against Hayashiyama, but now it has become the headquarters of the encirclement and suppression of the rebel army.

Maeda Sae walked in and said, "Your Excellency, the mutinous troops have broken through the blockade of the Kadozaki Brigade and are heading in the direction of Lin Shushan. Lin Xishan's northern front position has been opened by the mutinous 4th Army and their corresponding troops, and the Shangbin Wing is regaining the lost position. ”

Hasegawa was very angry on the side: "The conscience of the people of Shina is greatly broken. He had premeditated, premeditated. They deceived us of the weapons and money of Great Japan, and even betrayed our imperial army, and they must be exterminated. ”

Maeda said: "Your Excellency, since the information sent by 'Piao' says that the troops of the National Youth League have come to pick up the troops of the school, then we can use their retreat route to surround and intercept them. ”

Hasegawa thought for a moment and said, "It makes sense. 'Floating' is very capable, and even the route of their retreat can be obtained. Maeda-kun, I'll leave this matter to you. ”

"Hey!"

'Sui' gave the Japanese a detailed list of place names, and the Japanese knew that the rebel forces would retreat from that route, and Maeda knew even more about where to wipe out the Shina troops in one fell swoop, that is, the Yuxia Pass.

The Japanese Shangbin Wing launched many attacks on the lost position, but it was impossible to recapture it, but at the same time, the Shangbin Wing quietly marched towards Yuxia Pass, wanting to occupy Yuxia Pass in advance and ambush the rebels there.
