Chapter 81: Intent

The battle developed to the 18th, and the Japanese army base camp opened Feng as soon as possible; Pei and the two counties achieved the goal of encircling Xuzhou and eliminating the best living forces, and put the rebuilt 11th Division into conquering Feng; In the battle of Pei and Liang County, starting from Jinxiang in Shandong, the capture of Yucheng concentrated superior forces to the battalions in the area from Huge to Huankou; 4 battalions; The pre-cadre column attacked fiercely in all directions, and the battle between the two counties began in an all-round way.

Fengxian National Youth League Headquarters Command Post.

Shen Shaofan came all the way from the position of the 1st battalion, and as soon as he entered the camp tent, he said to Sun Zhiyu: "It seems that the devil wants to eat us." ”

Sun Zhiyu looked at the map and said, "I guess the devil is in Liu Wanglou; The number of troops on the eastern front of Peixian and the Huhuan defense line was more than 50,000 people. According to the information sent by the commander's department, there is still the 1st Division from Nanjing heading north, heading towards this Dangshan, which will arrive in a few days, and the 5th Battalion and the independent column are reinforcing the fortifications in the area of Lizhai. ”

"That is, our five battalions and two columns are already on the front line?" Shen Shaofan looked at the map and quipped: "It seems that it is really embattled!" ”

Sun Zhiyu smiled and said: "The artillery company is divided into three places, which are in Changdian; Hekou and Zhangzhai provided fire cover from three positions. We still have guards; Secret agent; reconnaissance of four battalions plus a teaching column; cavalry companies; Rifle company more than 8,000 reserves. ”

Shen Shaofan smiled and said, "What is the law of the Chief's Department?" ”

"Commander Li ordered three divisions to come back to our aid, but so far these three divisions have not been contacted." Sun Zhiyu said.

Shen Shaofan looked at the map and said, "Those three divisions? ”

"It seems to be from the Janssen Legion." Sun Zhiyu said.

"Humph! Janssen! Shen Shaofan let out a long sigh and said, "It seems that this battle is up to us again." ”

Sun Zhiyu said: "Each of these four lines of defense is very important, and it can't be avoided, so it's light!" The most troublesome thing is that the 600,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of ordinary people do not know how many days it will take to withdraw, and the longer the defense line of the two counties stays, the more dangerous our regiment will be. ”

Shen Shaofan threw the magnifying glass in his hand and said, "Don't think about it anymore." Order all the troops to give me a line of defense. ”

"Yes!"

On May 0, 198, most of the troops in the Fifth Theater had been safely evacuated, and the people of Xuzhou had also been transferred, but the Japanese army had attacked Feng; The offensive of Pei and the two counties did not stop, but intensified the offensive, and their intention seemed to be to annihilate the National Youth League that remained in the two counties.

The Japanese army in Shanxian County, Shandong attacked Feng; At the headquarters of Pei and Pei counties, several Japanese officers entered the headquarters, one of which was Kawagishi Bunzaburo who participated in the Lugou Bridge Incident, and this time he was in charge of the full command of the attack on Feng and Pei counties.

Kawagishi Bunzaburo said: "Everyone, the base camp is very good for this harvest; Pei Liang County's attack was very important, so not only the Takagi Division was transferred, but also the Kitaoka Division and the Murakami Division. We must do our best to stay in Feng; The Chinese troops in Pei and the two counties were all wiped out and not a single one remained. ”

"Your Excellency, the large army of the Chinese army has already evacuated Xuzhou in echelons many times, our army has already conquered Xuzhou, why do you still have to mobilize the masses to attack this small place with nearly 100,000 imperial troops?" A Japanese officer said.

Kawagishi Bunzaburo said: "We are not fighting the army of China, it is a kind of spiritual destruction of the army of China. According to our reliable sources, the defense is abundant; The Chinese army in Peiliang County is the army that has repeatedly brought shame to our great Japanese empire -- the National Youth League. As long as there are them, the soldiers of our Imperial Japanese Army will be afraid and afraid on Chinese soil, so we will destroy them. ”

"Hey!" The officers stood up and bowed.

At this time, there was a person's applause at the door, and a lieutenant general officer walked in, and he applauded and said, "Good! Very good! We want to wash away the shame of the imperial army and avenge our loved ones in this land of projectiles. ”

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General. How did you get here? Kawagishi Bunzaburo said.

The lieutenant general officer smiled: "I am here to participate in this battle. ”

"Your Excellency?" Kawagishi Bunzaburo looked at the lieutenant general officer in confusion.

The lieutenant general officer choked up and said: "My two sons died for the Great Japanese Holy War, they were both killed by the head of the National Youth League, I must cut off his head to avenge my two sons." ”

This lieutenant general officer is actually the father of Koga Muto and Koga Ichiteng, Koga Rokuro, the Japanese lieutenant general, the principal of the Imperial Japanese Shooting School, and was named the 'God of Guns' by Emperor Hirohito, and he came to China with a hundred snipers trained by his own hands, just to kill Shen Shaofan and eliminate the National Youth League.

Kawagishi Fumizaburo said, "It is indeed our honor that His Excellency the Lieutenant General can come to help us. ”

Koga Sixteen said, "How is the war going now?" ”

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, we are all under control, and we have surrounded them on all sides. Now the main force of our army is launching an offensive in the area of Liu Wanglou, and it is necessary to take Liu Wanglou this evening. Kawagishi Bunzaburo said.

On May 1, 198, two days had passed since the fall of Xuzhou, and the National Youth League had been ordered to block the enemy going south and the two counties of Fengpei retreated on the 0th, but the troops left in Xuzhou were withdrawn too quickly, and they had left in the early morning of the 19th, and Xuzhou was occupied by the Japanese army in the morning. At this point, the National Youth League was surrounded on all sides in the northernmost part of Jiangsu, and the so-called three divisions that returned to the aid were nowhere to be found, and the distress telegrams sent out were like stones sinking into the sea, the northern front; Southern Route; The Eastern Front had all retreated to the last line of defense, and the artillery company deployed at Zhangzhai and Hekou could not pull the artillery in time to endure the painful explosion. On the morning of the 1st, the 1st Battalion of the Eastern Front was forced to retreat to the Mandarin Towers on the outskirts of Feng County; All Pei counties in the Lulou area were lost, and the Takagi Division led the troops to attack the battalion that was still holding the No. 1 position.

The position of Liu Wanglou's battalion is under artillery fire, they have been sticking here since the 14th, and they have not taken a step back, Nie Yufeng crossed through the trenches with his waist and reached the position command, picked up the walkie-talkie, pulled his throat and shouted: "Hey! Feed! Is it the regimental headquarters? I'm the 1st Battalion! The regiment commander sent another reinforcement of troops, and our battalion suffered heavy casualties! ”

"Resist the wind! You must stay in your position, it is the key to our regiment, you must stay. I immediately called the battalion to support you. ”

"Yes!" Nie Yufeng finished throwing the walkie-talkie and shouted, "The guard company is with me." ”

All the guns on the position shot together, the devil killed all the way, and all fell in front of the position, Nie Yufeng also participated in the battle with a submachine gun lying in the trench, and he shouted while strafing: "Brothers, put the devil close to fight and save bullets." "Another volley of shots. The officers and men of the entire battalion all took part in the battle, and even the communications soldiers fought with the devils with guns, and the soldiers became more and more courageous, but the devil soldiers also fought more and more.

Nie Yufeng looked at the devil's style of play and said to himself: "Eh! It's weird. This devil's style of play is so the same as that of the devil on the 1507 highlands! ”

That's natural, the commander of the Takagi division was fighting with the battalion on the 1507 heights, and the fighting style was naturally the same, the artillery rushed to the close range regardless of casualties, and fought with bayonets, and the battle army under his command still retained, in order to fight the enemy at close range with bayonets. In 1507, Yoshito Takagi still remembers the last battle on the highlands, and he has been haunting that defeat since then.

Nie Yufeng thought of this, and spat at the mouth: "Damn it, the road is really narrow, and I met the dog of Yoshito Takagi." "There was another volley of strafing downwards.

Bullets jumped and whistled on the position, one by one the soldiers fell on the trench, the soldiers on the whole position were already red-eyed, the guns in their hands kept shooting, and some simply carried the Czech ZB6 to stand on the trench and shoot at the devils.

At this time, the battalion arrived and Zhao Meng shouted: "Hurry up and enter the battle!" ”

Nie Yufeng looked at it and shouted, "Old Zhao! If you don't come, I'll give you more than 100 pounds. ”

"Do you want you?" Zhao Meng smiled: "How's the situation?" ”

Nie Yufeng said: "At a glance, our four defenses in depth have lost two, and our battalion still has more than nine hundred people and three company commanders; two deputy company commanders; nine squad leaders; four lieutenant staff officers; Sacrificed, my deputy battalion commander was seriously wounded. ”

Zhao Meng smiled and said: "You are better than the 1st battalion, the 1st battalion withdrew to the Mandarin Tower; There were only more than 400 people in the Lulou area, and Huang Junjie's troops began to fight with the 10th Division for seven days and seven nights, without stopping, and their troops had no bullets in the chambers when they came down, and they all came out with bayonets. ”

Nie Yufeng said fiercely: "The devil of the heavens! It seems that this time I can meet with my comrades who died on the 1507 heights. ”

"What about you!" Zhao Meng is a Northeast person, and he came out with the Northeast Township in a hurry: "Shaofan is making a breakthrough plan!" ”

Nie Yufeng smiled: "It was originally so! It is reasonable for soldiers to die on the battlefield and the horse leather shroud! ”

"Battalion commander! The devil is up again. ”

Nie Yufeng and Zhao Meng looked at each other and said in unison: "Beat me to death!" He also raised his submachine gun and fired wildly at the devils who rushed up.

Fengxian National Relatives Regiment Headquarters. At this time, the devil's shelling was already close at hand, and the air waves and vibrations of the explosion drifted dust everywhere, but Shen Shaofan still sat peacefully in the command headquarters and looked at the map, and the entire regiment command did not seem to show a trace of retreat.

"Shaofan." Sun Zhiyu walked over and said, "The positions of Liu Wanglou and Song Lou are still in our hands, and we must immediately try to break through from there." ”

"Breakout?" Shen Shaofan said suspiciously: "I didn't plan to break through from there!" ”

"What? That's the only way we can get through. Sun Zhiyu said.

Shen Shaofan stood up and said: "We know that that is the only passage, and the devil also knows that the meaning of holding the positions of Liu Wanglou and Song Lou now is to give the devil an illusion and make the devil think that we are going to break through from there." The advance column was ordered to support the Liu Wanglou position, and the 4th battalion supported the Song Lou position. ”

"Yes!"

"Send a telegram to Commander Lee. Respectfully: Our National Youth League was surrounded by the Japanese army on all sides, and the situation was critical, so we decided to break through to Dangshan and send troops to meet it. National Youth League: Shen Shaofan "Shen Shaofan said.

"Shaofan, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?" Sun Zhiyu was confused by him.

Shen Shaofan pointed to the map and said: "Now the positions of Liu Wanglou and Song Lou are actually meaningless to defend, because we have been surrounded on all sides, even if we can open up the retreat channel here, we have no way to break through the position of the Japanese army in Dangshan." So I put a lot of smoke on the devils, so that they thought that we were going to break through from between Liu Wanglou and Song Tower, and asked them to send heavy troops to guard Dangshan and send heavy troops to copy our back road from the eastern front. ”

Zhang Wenshan on the side also had questions: "Tuanzuo, where will we retreat from there?" ”

Shen Shaofan gestured on the map and said: "According to our intelligence, the devils have gathered about 20,000 troops directly north of us, about 10,000 troops in our east, about 10,000 troops in our south, and about 40,000 in the area of Liu Wanglou and Song Tower in our west. Judging from the frequency of our intercepted telegrams, about 100,000 troops of the devils will be embedded in Shandong; Anhui; Feng of the handover of the three provinces of Henan; The land of Pei and the two counties is completely surrounded. We can only take a dangerous move, retreat from the northwest direction of the devil, enter the Shandong territory, break through from the devil's single county defense, once we break through the single county defense, we will divide our troops into two roads, one way south, Henan Shangqiu, and then westward retreat, until entering the Kunshan Mountain, the other team retreats west to Shandong, Ming, crosses the Yellow River westward, and enters Zhongtiao Mountain. ”

Zhang Wenshan said: "Isn't this too risky? ”

Sun Zhiyu looked at the map and said, "It's an adventure, but it's a fight." If the devils gather heavy troops in Dangshan and our rear, the devils' single-county defense must be extremely fragile. But what about our baggage and logistics personnel and the wounded in such a strong and sudden advance, their marching speed is slower than that of ordinary people! ”

Shen Shaofan thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "All the baggage and artillery have been blown up." In addition to the mortars, all the artillery fired all the shells in the area of Liu Wanglou and Song Lou and blew them up, and the artillery joined the infantry in the breakthrough battle. ”

The last position of the artillery company of the Changdian National Youth League.

"Bomb-cannon-?" Zhang Liang asked in surprise.

Zhang Wenshan lowered his head and said: "The baggage must be blown up, and it can't be left to the devil." ”

"Deputy Chief of Staff Zhang. This cannon is all blown up, so what are our artillery doing? Zhang Liang hurriedly took off his steel helmet and chased after Zhang Wenshan and asked.

Zhang Wenshan said: "Why is it that if an artillery soldier doesn't have a cannon, he is not a ** person?" Grab your rifles and take part in the infantry breakout. This is the order of the regiment commander! ”

Zhang Liang said: "Then leave a few cannons, right?" ”

"No way!" Zhang Wenshan said: "Except for the mortars that can be carried, all other cannons will be blown up. The troops are going to advance by leaps and bounds, all the vehicles are blown up, and with these cannons will drag down the troops, you have to understand the overall situation! ”

"The big picture!" Zhang Liang touched his head and said, "Yes!" ”

As soon as Zhang Wenshan left, several platoon commanders under Zhang Liang came over: "Is the company commander a bomber?" ”

"Company commander, this cannon is the life of the brothers! You can't blow it up! ”

Zhang Liang couldn't figure it out in his heart, but he was the commander of a company, so naturally he couldn't influence it with emotions, and the soldiers below glared at them fiercely and said, "Don't fucking be stupid!" You know what! What do you know? That's the big picture. Ay! Do you understand the big picture? ”

"I don't understand!" Several platoon commanders shook their heads on the sidelines.

In fact, Zhang Liang didn't understand what the overall situation was, but he thought that the regiment commander must be right, so he kicked at a few platoon commanders and said, "You guys fucking understand, do you want me to be the company commander?" Go! Go! Ordered to aim at Liu Wanglou and Song Lou and shoot 200 meters along the stretch, and give me all the shells to the devils. After the shells were fired...... Bomb the cannon! ”

"Yes!"

"The target Liu Wanglou's position is stretched two hundred meters along the line, and the artillery is fired!"
