After receiving a call from the Front Headquarters, Yoshimoto Sadachi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, although he was ready to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, but it was a helpless move, to be honest, he really didn't want to die. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
After being a soldier for most of his life, he was easily promoted to lieutenant general, but if he died in battle like this, it would really be a big loss.
Immediately, Yoshimoto Sadachi organized troops to break through, he couldn't die, he wanted to live.
It is actually very easy to break through, after all, most of Yang Chengwu's troops are still in the area north of Xuanhua, and they have not had time to encircle Xuanhua, and at the same time, there is no formed Eighth Route Army south of Xuanhua, so Yoshimoto Zhen left more than 600 wounded soldiers in the city to continue to fight with Yang Chengwu's department, and the main force immediately left the city from the south gate and fled in the direction of Beiping.
After the reorganized Second Division took control of the entire Xuanhua, it was discovered that it was only a few hundred wounded soldiers of the 16th Division who had been fighting them, and that old devil Yoshimoto Sadachi had fled south with more than 5,000 people half an hour earlier.
Yang Chengwu was not angry, and immediately ordered the troops to continue the pursuit. Anyway, Ma Zheng's order to them was to try their best to attract the Japanese troops in the direction of Beiping, and when his troops hit Beiping, presumably the old devil Tada Jun would definitely not be able to sit still.
After a night of pursuit, at five o'clock in the morning of the 11th, Yang Chengwu finally arrived at Changping, the gateway to Beiping, with the main force of the reorganized Second Division, and at this time, Yoshimoto Sadachi and the independent mixed 15th Brigade of Nagumo Kinichiro, who joined him, had also entered Beiping City.
Yang Chengwu did not care about the 4th Brigade of the 2nd Division, which was still 60 kilometers away, and after the troops arrived in Changping, he ordered the troops to assemble immediately and launch an attack on Changping at 6 o'clock in the morning, and at the same time set aside a part of the troops to attack the Nanyuan airfield.
Changping is the northern gateway of Beiping, and it is a necessary place to pass through along with Zhangjiakou and Suiyuan, where the Japanese army stationed a whole brigade of troops. Although the Japanese North China Front Headquarters had anticipated that Ma Zheng's headquarters was likely to take advantage of the situation to attack Beiping, it deliberately strengthened the garrison in the direction of Changping and ordered the garrison to strengthen its vigilance.
But they still did not expect that Ma Zheng's headquarters would go straight to Beiping without stopping after capturing Xuanhua, and when Ma Zheng's headquarters suddenly appeared in Changping and launched an attack in a very short time, the entire North China Front Army Headquarters was completely stunned and immediately ordered troops to reinforce Changping.
But it was too late, Changping was originally a small town, with no complete fortifications and no dangerous terrain to defend. There were only a few pillboxes and turrets for the Japanese puppet army to garrison, but they were defeated by Ma Zheng's bazookas.
In less than ten minutes after the battle began, more than 20 pillboxes and 6 large artillery towers were completely destroyed by Ma Zheng's bazooka troops, and the defenders suffered heavy losses.
In addition, Yang Chengwu, as always, put several regiments equipped with AK assault rifles at the forefront, so the Japanese army was defeated, and it took less than half an hour to completely occupy Changping, and the defenders of a brigade were routed almost without organizing a decent resistance, and only half of the remaining Japanese army broke through from the southeast of Changping in panic. Yang Cheng Wufeng commanded the troops to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and the army drove five or six hundred Japanese troops towards Beiping City.
Beiping is the old name of the capital, after the Xinhai Revolution, the provisional government of the Republic of China set the capital of Nanjing. Yuan Shikai moved the provisional government to Beijing, and Beiping became the capital.
In the seventeenth year of the Republic of China, the old Jiang commanded the troops to go on a northern expedition to attack Beiping, and Zhang Zuolin retreated outside the pass. Later, it was assassinated by the Japanese Kwantung Army in Huanggutun, the Northeast changed banners, and the Beiyang government ended its operation. After the Northern Expedition, the capital of China was relocated to Nanjing. The original Jingzhao place was revoked and renamed Beiping Special City. During this period, Beijing, although it did not have the status of the capital, still had a key advantage in education, and was known to international people as "China's Boston".
Changping is less than ten kilometers away from Beiping City, so when the battle started, the Japanese troops in Beiping City heard the movement, and soon a sharp alarm sounded in the city, and all the Japanese troops were pulled up from their beds.
Lieutenant General Tada had just fallen asleep when he was called out by Major General Yukio Kasawara who came in a hurry, but as a senior commander, Tada knew that if it wasn't something particularly important, Yukio Kasahara wouldn't risk being scolded by himself to disturb him.
Besides, the sound of gunfire outside the city just got up attracted his attention, and after Major General Yukio Kasahara finished telling the situation, Tada Jun was completely stunned, how could the people of China appear outside Beiping City so quickly, how did they do it, are they really heavenly soldiers?
"Kasahara-kun, how could the Shina army appear outside Beiping City so quickly, and how many troops do they have in total?" Tada Jun asked urgently as he got dressed.
"Your Excellency, Commander, due to insufficient intelligence, it is not possible to judge how many troops the people of China have for the time being. However, according to the reports of the Changping defenders who fled back to the city, the number of the Chinese army was extremely large, and it was also equipped with a large number of artillery units. As for the fact that the Chinese will appear in Beiping, there is nothing surprising that they must have followed closely in the 16th Division to pursue Beiping. Yukio Kasawara replied immediately.
Before Lieutenant General Yukio Kasahara could finish speaking, a big Zuo hurriedly ran in and said: "Your Excellency Commander, there is a call from Nanyuan Airport, they were suddenly attacked by the Shina army five minutes ago, and the defenders were caught off guard and suffered extremely heavy losses. In addition, half of the 85 warplanes parked at Nanyuan Airport were destroyed, and the rest were urgently lifted into the air, requesting immediate and strong support from the headquarters. ”
"Support, must support, Nanyuan Airport is the most important airport of our army, not only there are so many planes parked, but also a large amount of fuel is stored, if it is destroyed by the Chinese people, all the vehicles of the imperial army will lose power, without fuel, the tanks and tanks of the imperial army will become a pile of scrap metal, so no matter what, Nanyuan Airport can not fall into the hands of the Chinese people." Tada Jun said hurriedly.
"Your Excellency Commander, we have no mobile troops available for deployment, although there are still two wings of field troops in the city, and two brigades of military police, plus Your Excellency's guard troops, adding up to only more than 8,000 people, after being assigned to the various city gates and city walls in Beiping, there is not much left, how can there be extra troops to support Nanyuan Airport." Major General Yukio Kasahara said in a deep voice.
"Baga, what should I do, do you just watch the people of China occupy Nanyuan Airport?" Tada Jun said angrily.
"Your Excellency Commander, the most important thing for us now is to hold Beiping City, once Beiping is not protected, you and I will become the second Lianzhao Pan." Major General Yukio Kasahara reminded.
Yukio Kasahara's reminder stunned Tada Jun for a moment, and then sat down on the ground dejectedly, yes, now that Beiping City is in danger, how can you still have the energy to manage Nanyuan Airport. If Beiping City is not broken, then it is fine, once the city is broken, Lian Zhaopan's unlucky bastard is a living example.
"Order: Major General Hirata Masashi is in charge of the defense of Beiping City, and mobilizes troops to rely on the fortifications of the city to resist the attack of the Shina army."
"Order: The 26th Division stationed in Baoding and the 7th Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Tianjin immediately returned to Beiping to attack the flank of the Chinese army. In addition, a telegram was sent to the 10th Division stationed in Tangshan and Zunhua, urging them to immediately send the main force to advance in the direction of Zhangjiakou and force the Chinese army outside Beiping to come to the rescue. Tada Jun issued four combat orders in a row.
In the end, Tada Jun added again: "Order these bastards, the troops must be in place within a day, or you will apologize to His Majesty the Emperor by seppuku." ”
Lieutenant General Tada's voice was loud, and the undisguised murderous intent in the order made the captain of the guard feel creepy.
"Hai"
Everyone could see that His Excellency the Commander was really angry this time. The sudden attack of the Chinese people made His Excellency the Commander lose face, and no matter whether the Chinese people could pose a threat to Beiping this time, the fact that the Chinese people hit the door alone was enough to make His Excellency the Commander a laughing stock in the army.
