After taking the town of Huajialing, Akiyama Tadaichi originally planned to immediately rush to the battlefield two kilometers to the north, first rescue Suzuki's idiot, and then find the main force of the Tsuchihachi Road for the main decisive battle. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, the search troops sent out soon rushed back, and to tell the truth, a large number of Chinese troops appeared around Huajialing, and it seemed that the strength was about three or four divisions.

"Nani, you mean that our land has been surrounded by Japanese troops!" Tadaichi Akiyama asked incredulously.

"Hay! Reporting to the Wing Commander, the lowly search squadron had detected a Tuba Road one kilometer west of Huajialing, numbering about 10,000 people. At the same time, a branch of the same size was found east of Huajialing, and an unknown number of China troops were found on the mountain road south of Huajialing. Only the north of Huajialing has not yet sent back news, but the place north of Huajialing is exactly where Suzuki-kun is surrounded, so there will definitely be a dirt road, so with the current situation, ours is surrounded by Shina! The leader of the 33rd Division's divisional search team, Kojiro Yamashita, reported quickly.

"Baga, immediately send a report to the division and regimental headquarters, requesting operational guidance, and all troops will immediately build fortifications on the spot, relying on this small town of China to stand for help! Hurry up! ”

Under the order of Akiyama Daisa, the entire Japanese army support force suddenly moved, and the angry Akiyama Tadaichi realized that he might have fallen into the trap of Ma Zheng's devil, at this time that guy had surrounded himself and more than 6,000 imperial warriors and more than 10,000 imperial troops in this small town, and his intention was obvious, to completely annihilate his own team.

Akiyama Tadaichi still has great scruples about the posture posed by Ma Zheng's department, because there are quite a few Japanese troops who have been completely annihilated by Ma Zheng's department, not to mention the scale of the two infantry wings led by him, even if it is a larger and more powerful field army, it has not been completely annihilated, such as the notorious Sendai Second Division and the 12th Division.

Because of this, Tadaichi Akiyama himself was not sure about the next battle, and he only hoped that the reinforcements from His Excellency the division commander would come sooner.

However, the reality was even more cruel than Akiyama Tadaichi imagined, and soon the bad news came one after another, first of all, his troops had lost contact with the division headquarters, all the radio stations were out of order, and even the contact with the troops in the town had to rely on word of mouth from the communicators, and there was no other way.

Akiyama Tadaichisa, who had used radio jamming technology, quickly judged the current situation, and his troops had obviously been used by Dohachi Road with radio jamming technology, and there was no chance of contacting the division headquarters.

Immediately after that, the commander of the 215th Infantry Wing, Jiro Fukuda, hurriedly walked in and said: "Akiyama-kun, just now I went around the town and found that except for some houses in the town, the other houses have been demolished by the people of China, and there is not even drinking water in the town. ”

"Fukuda-kun, please rest assured, we have lost contact with the division headquarters for so long, if those stupid staff officers of the division headquarters can't even deduce that we have been surrounded by the Eighth Road, then they are not worthy of being the warriors of our Great Japanese Empire."

"That's right, even if you think about it with your ass, you know that we are surrounded by the Chinese people!"

"I think with the wisdom of His Excellency the division commander, the reinforcements that support us are likely to be on the road now, and as long as we support it for about three to five hours, we can safely evacuate." Tadaichi Akiyama said confidently.

Although Fukuda Jiro also knew that this was Akiyama Tadaichi cheering himself up, but I have to say that after Akiyama said this, he felt much better, and he didn't dare to say anything else, but if more than 17,000 people couldn't support it for even five hours, then they might as well die early.

The speed of the Eighth Route Army's attack was much faster than Akiyama and others imagined, in order to preserve the strength of the Japanese army, so Akiyama Osa put the three infantry brigades of the puppet army at the forefront of the battlefield, with obvious intentions, that is, to let the puppet army act as cannon fodder and a live target to attract the firepower of the Eighth Route Army, while the Japanese army was all cowering in the center of Huajialing Town.

The first wave of the Eighth Route Army's attack was the same as the usual tactic of the Japanese army, artillery fire and infantry assault. This time, in addition to the field heavy artillery, Ma Zheng had the remaining three artillery regiments in place, and the first wave of artillery bombardment lasted for 15 minutes, and if he was not worried about being bombed by the Japanese air regiment, this time would have been greatly extended.

But even so, a full fifteen minutes of shelling had completely broken the fighting spirit of the infantry brigades of the three puppet armies. Coupled with the instigation of the intelligence officers lurking inside the three infantry brigades, the main forces of the newly formed 3rd and 4th Divisions of the puppet North China Public Security Army revolted on the battlefield and turned their guns on the Japanese troops in the town.

The 213th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, which was caught off guard, suffered a lot of losses, and an infantry squadron and an artillery squad responsible for monitoring the puppet army were quickly annihilated by the rebel forces.

The rebel puppet army, under the command of Ma Zheng's spies, did not give the Japanese army time to reflect at all, and retreated with one blow. After eating more than 300 Japanese troops, he immediately withdrew from his position and surrendered to the integrated 4th Division outside the town.

The battlefield uprising of the infantry brigades of the three puppet armies directly shattered the relatively complete defensive circle of the Japanese army, and the two puppet infantry regiments that were responsible for the east and south without uprising suddenly became prominent lone troops, and were severely damaged by the reorganized 4th Division and the 2nd Brigade, and the position arranged by Akiyama Osa on the outskirts of Huajialing Town was quickly disintegrated.

Although Akiyama knew that these Imperial Allied troops alone would not be able to resist the attack of the Eighth Route Army, but if those Imperial Allied troops were left in the town and let the Japanese army come out to fight with the elite of the Eighth Route Army, he was not at ease.

At the same time, the two of them also sighed a fluke, fortunately, those puppet armies were in front of the Imperial Japanese Army at that time instead of behind, if they were behind, and then they encountered the Imperial Army and the Chinese Army, at that time, if these Imperial Allied Army came from behind the Imperial Army, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

Although the two remaining puppet legions did not revolt, Akiyama did not dare to use them. When the two puppet infantry regiments were withdrawn to the town and quickly disarmed, he was now really suspicious of these Chinese who were not Chinese. If it weren't for the fact that there were less than 2,000 puppet troops left, Akiyama really wouldn't have allowed these puppet troops to enter the town.

Huajialing Temporary Headquarters, Xu Hu was very excited at this time. The news has just come that the 6,000-strong members of the puppet North China Security Army have easily eliminated an infantry squadron and an artillery squad of the Japanese army, killing and wounding more than 300 little devils.

At the same time, the reorganized Fourth Division, the 1st and 2nd Independent Brigades, and the Artillery Brigade have surrounded Huajialing Town, and the time is ripe for a general attack.

In addition, about 5,000 Japanese troops stationed in Wei County were coming to Huajialing with the cooperation of more than a dozen chariots, and even the 40th Division of the Japanese Army stationed in Nangaoya and the three independent mixed brigades had sent a reinforcement of about 10,000 troops and were rushing to Huajialing on foot.

Immediately, Xu Hu said loudly: "Order, the troops on the periphery of Huajialing Town immediately launch a general attack, and be sure to complete the annihilation of the besieged Japanese army before dark." In addition, he sent a telegram to Wang Er's 9th Brigade and Li Guoquan's 10th Brigade, ordering them to immediately cooperate with the armored division, fight in tantan, and immediately kill the county seat of Weixian after the Japanese planes returned after dark, and completely annihilate the Japanese army's support soldiers. ”

"Send a report to Hu Tianchang of the 3rd Independent Brigade and Li Jiangtao of the 4th Independent Brigade, and ask them to block the reinforcements of the Japanese army in the direction of the southern high cliff along the mountain road, and if the casualties of the troops are too great, you can let go of the main road and let the reinforcements of the devils come in, and the high-speed divisions and brigades, the general offensive has begun." Xu Hu decisively gave the order for a general attack. (To be continued.) )
