On the morning of November 7, the Battle of Southwest Lu broke out without warning.

In addition to the news of how many Eighth Route Army troops were eliminated and how many local cadres and militiamen were killed and injured in wells, the Japanese puppet radio station also threw out a bombshell: Qin Yutang, commander of the sixth guerrilla column in the Sulu Theater, surrendered to the Japanese invaders.

The Japanese puppet radio station made a special comment on Qin Yutang's surrender to the enemy, saying that Qin Yutang, commander of the Sixth Column of Guerrilla Warfare in the Sulu Theater in the Jiaodong Region, saw the glorious prospects of common prosperity in Greater East Asia and took the initiative to contact the Imperial Army's troops stationed in Haiyang and accept the reorganization of the Imperial Army. This incident shows that the Chinese people in Shandong who have been poisoned by the redness have begun to wake up, and Commander Qin Yutang is only one step ahead, and I believe that in the near future, a large number of local armed forces, gentlemen and celebrities in Shandong will stand up and cooperate with the imperial army and break with the desperate Eighth Route Army.

A new slogan was put forward on the Japanese pseudo-radio station, called "** Anti-Eight". This means that the armed forces left by the Kuomintang on the ground in Shandong should cooperate with the Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Army, join forces to resist the redness of the **, and join forces to resist the suppression of the Eighth Route Army. As long as the ** anti-eight, the imperial army will open up the net, and it can be incorporated into the North China Public Security Army sequence, or it can still maintain the original number, as long as it unites with the imperial army and accepts the command of the imperial army.

The Japanese puppet radio station once again announced the rewards for killing or capturing Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, Zeng Zhongsheng, and Cai Zhongzhong, including the rewards for capturing and killing local cadres, local armed personnel, cadres at all levels of the army, and soldiers by capturing or providing clues to the Japanese army. After the announcement, he repeatedly broadcast Tada Jun's radio talk urging Liu Yimin to surrender, as if the main force of the Shandong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army had been wiped out by the Japanese army, and Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, and others had scattered and fled.

Contrary to the shouting on the Japanese puppet radio, the Japanese heavy army group was working hard, and the Lunan group commanded by Kiichiro Barrelguchi, the West Group commanded by Yasui Toji, the East Group commanded by Yamashita Fushita, and the North Group commanded by Jun Imamura formed an encirclement of Lunan and were desperately encircling it.

From Tada Jun of the North China Front, to Nishio Shouzo of the [China] Dispatch Army, to the gang of aggressors in Tokyo, they are all looking forward to destroying the main force of the Shandong Army of the Eighth Route Army in Lunan in one fell swoop!

It was under these circumstances that the combat operations launched by Fujii Yotomo in southwest Lu to capture the county towns of Chengwu and Dingtao were not so eye-catching. The top brass of the Japanese army all knew that Liu Yimin's main force was in southern Lunan and not in southwest Lunan, and what the Japanese army most urgently wanted was the main force of the Eighth Route Army commanded by Liu Yimin and Liu Yimin's own head. As for the troops of the Eighth Route Army in the southwestern part of the country, which constantly harassed the 38th Division, they were not worth mentioning in the eyes of Tada Jun and Nishio Shouzo, not to mention Emperor Hirohito, Prince Zaihito of the Kanin Palace, and Hososhitoroku, the leaders of the country.

The difference of one word caused Fujii Yotomo to launch the battle to capture Dingtao and Chengwu with great effort, and it was not even as important as the battle to pursue and intercept Yu Xuezhong's department in northern Jiangsu. The air forces, including those that provided air cover for the troops, were busy flying to the Lunan area, as if only Lunan had a battle and a Eighth Route Army.

No, after the four Japanese bombers that took off from Shangqiu Airport flew to the Qinggangji area, they searched everywhere for the positions of the Eighth Route Army and carried out bombing. To the surprise of the Japanese soldiers, the Japanese pilots did not find that there was an obvious position built by the Eighth Route Army on the ground.

The bombs dropped from a high altitude bombed the Eighth Route Army before the Japanese soldiers who were launching the attack were so angry that the Japanese commanders, group leaders, and squadron leaders of the Japanese army were jumping to their feet and scolding, and kept sending signals to make contact. As a result, the Japanese pilots simply flapped their wings after throwing bombs and flew away.

At this time, the commander of the infantry of the 38th Division of the Japanese Army led the divisional combat convoy and the 230th Wing in a car to the battlefield along the road from Cao County to Dingtao. The 38th Search Wing on horseback and the 38th Field Artillery Wing on horseback and the 38th Field Artillery Wing on the artillery wagons pulled by pack horses have not yet arrived at the battlefield!

The first shot to fire the first shot in the Battle of Southwest Lu was the Cao County Brigade led by Liu Qibin, the magistrate of Cao County.

During this time, with the support of the main force, the Caoxian County Brigade changed its shotguns to artillery, and the soldiers all carried the 38 big covers, and each squadron was also equipped with two tǐng crooked handle machine guns, and the combat effectiveness was raised to a higher level.

The Eighth Route Army wanted to fight a big battle in Cao County, and Liu Qibin took the initiative to ask Chen Shiqu, deputy chief of staff of the Shandong Military Region and commander of the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade, to ask for a battle in which the county brigade was familiar with the terrain, to deploy the enemy first, and to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops in actual combat.

Chen Shiqu approved Liu Qibin's request and deployed them between the Caoxian-Dingtao Highway and the Caoxian Zhenheze Highway, and the periphery of Qinggangji, with the task of monitoring the movements of the Japanese army and leading the devils into the ambush circle of the main force.

After receiving the task, Liu Qibin led the soldiers to the outside of Shizhuang Village in the south of Qinggangji, and according to the rules of the Eighth Route Army, they released warning posts and lurking posts, and then hid themselves in an irrigation canal, waiting for the arrival of the little devils.

This is a great plain, with no hills to rely on, and trenches, irrigation canals, and villages are natural blocking positions. This irrigation canal is not deep, only one meter deep, and people have to climb on the edge of the canal to lù half of their bodies. The advantage is that there is a road trench leading to Shizhuang, which is convenient for retreat after it is fired.

Except for the squadron leader and squad leader, who are cadres sent by the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade, the soldiers of the Cao County Brigade are all Cao County disciples of Qingyisè.

After this period of fighting, it is no longer a new unit that could not even distinguish between left and right when it was first formed. The fighters, under the command of the cadres, dressed in cotton clothes, crawled in the icy irrigation canals, resting with their eyes closed.

Brigade Commander Chen Jiāo was clear that all the troops fighting to block the attack were not allowed to build positions, and could only rely on trenches, irrigation canals, and villages to resist, and retreat after a fight. The reason is that the main force of our army is here, and it will soon launch a full-scale assault on the Japanese army, and if a blocking position is built, as soon as the blocking troops withdraw, it will be easy for the little devils to take advantage of it and resist stubbornly on the spot.

Liu Qibin is not a military cadre specializing in mén, but he graduated from Peking University, has knowledge and culture, has a good brain, and learns things quickly. Especially in today's battle, he knew that the Cao County Brigade was just holding a rancid yòu dog. You have to hold it in your hand and not throw it out, otherwise the dog won't follow. Therefore, Liu Qibin's order to the cadres and fighters was that they were not allowed to shoot without an order. After receiving the order to open fire, all guns will be fired in a row, with five bullets per person, and they will be withdrawn after the battle, and they will not be allowed to fight.

As soon as the little devil was dispatched, Liu Qibin, who was at the forefront, received a notification.

finally waited until seven o'clock in the morning, and 1 little devil was late.

Liu Qibin looked at the little devils in front of him, a little disappointed, because there were only 12 devils walking along the country road, and it seemed that they were the top soldiers of the devils. Liu Qibin couldn't help but ask Liu Hongyun, the captain of the county brigade next to him, to fight or not to fight?

Liu Hongyun was originally a platoon commander of the 1st Brigade, and after being sent to the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade, he served as a company commander.

I heard Liu Hong use his Hunan accent to say: "Fight! Kill the spearhead squad, and the devils in the back will come up. It's not too late for us to block and then retreat! You see, isn't there a big army behind the devil's spearhead squad? ”

Liu Qibin saw that about a mile behind the devil's spearhead squad was indeed the devil's brigade, which was gathering towards Qinggang at a rapid marching speed

Liu Hongyun asked for the 38 big cover from a soldier, ordered the squadron leaders and 1 squad leader to prepare for the attack, and he also set the ruler, stretched out the barrel of the gun, and aimed at the devil's top soldier squad.

As soon as Liu Qibin heard Liu Hongyun order the squadron leader and the 1st squad leader to fire, he knew that he was unwilling to spend bullets.

200 meters, 100 meters, 50 meters, 1 little devil soldier can see the face clearly, just listen to Liu Hongyun's shout "hit" finger and pull the trigger, the bullet spun and flew out, hitting the devil soldier who hit the head.

Immediately afterwards, the squadron leader, deputy squadron leader, and 1 squad leader of the Caoxian County Brigade opened fire one after another, and a total of devil soldiers were thrown to the ground one by one.

The crisp sound of gunfire tore through the silence of the morning, and the devil brigade behind the spearhead squad was immediately alert. The captain of the devil brigade pulled out his command knife and pointed at the place where the gunshots rang out, and the devils of a squadron scattered on the spot and searched in battle formation towards the position of the Cao County Brigade. The Devil's brigade of infantry guns, grenadiers, and heavy machine guns also began to occupy positions, ready to cover the infantry charge.

Liu Hongyun gave the rifle to the warriors around him, and Chōu took out the barge gun, turned on the nose, and gave the order to prepare for battle.

The soldiers all climbed to the edge of the trench, stretched out the barrels of their guns, and aimed at the little devils who pounced.

After the little devil who had searched for him with a gun and a cat's waist entered the shè cheng, Liu Hongyun gave the order to fire. Suddenly, the crooked machine gun on the position of the county brigade let out a crisp cry of joy, and swept away at the little devil. The fighters took the squad as a unit, and under the command of the squad leader, fired a platoon of guns.

The vigilance of the little devil is high enough, but he can't help such a dense attack at close range, and he who walked in front of him and lay down on the ground. By the time the devil in the back woke up and lay down, the soldiers of the Cao County Brigade were already firing the third shot.

The two mén grenadiers under the command of the Caoxian County Brigade of the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade also fired, but after only two shots, the shè fire stopped. Their task is very clear, that is, to convince the little devil that the Caoxian County Brigade is the main force of the Eighth Route Army and has small steel cannons.

After only five rounds of ammunition from each soldier, Liu Hongyun ordered to stop the firing and retreat along the trench and into Shizhuang.

Liu Qibin was very satisfied with this, and after a while, plus the devil's spearhead class, 1 little devil also killed and injured forty or fifty people. For the county brigade, this achievement has already allowed the storytellers in Cao County to compile a book and sing for a while.

Liu Qibin and Liu Hongyun gave the retreat order in a timely manner, and as soon as they withdrew from the irrigation canal position, the infantry artillery and Type 92 heavy machine guns of the little devils came over. The devil's artillery hit the thief accurately, and the shells exploded in or by the irrigation canal, and the dust and mist kicked up just covered the retreat of the county brigade.

If it is withdrawn a little later, there will be a large number of casualties in the Cao County Brigade. Because the irrigation canal is too shallow, and there is no digging and firing cannons, it can't withstand the shelling of the little devils.

The Cao County Brigade made the devil's infantry artillery and heavy machine guns open fire. According to the battle plan of Lieutenant General Yotomo Fujii, commander of the 38th Division, where the crane gun sounded, it means where the Eighth Route Army is. The six infantry brigades of the 228th Cong Wing and the 229th Wing would rush towards the gunfire and encircle and annihilate the blocking Eighth Route Army.

The soldiers of the county brigade who withdrew into Shizhuang didn't expect that the devil would have this hand, and after retreating into Shizhuang, they took a breath, and the soldiers began to flow to each other to see who hit the devil just now.

In fact, in the blocking battle just now, most of the fighters did not hit, and what really caused damage to the devils, except for a few tǐng light machine guns, was mainly the high hit rate of those squadron leaders, 1st squad leaders, and squad leaders, and the other was the high hit rate of the soldiers who were born hunting on the Yellow River political road.

Liu Hongyun came out of the main force, and unlike Liu Qibin, he was very dissatisfied with the results just now, if the first battalion of the first brigade was changed here, this devil squadron that searched and advanced would not be enough for the soldiers to shoot one person and one gun! Of course, he also knows that combat effectiveness is not something that can come up in a day or two, warrior warriors, that is honed in countless battles. It is not easy for the Cao County Brigade to be able to fight like this. At the very least, there are no warriors to scare niàokùzi.

Liu Hongyun said to Liu Qibin: "County Magistrate Liu, after this battle, the county brigade will conduct a centralized training, which will cover the five skills of infantry. Like this, it's purely làng fee bullets.

If these bullets were used by Jiāo to the main force of our army, we would have killed more little devils than us! Liu Qibin looked forward to the combat effectiveness of the county brigade, and when he heard this, he said: "You can train boldly and confidently according to the training content of the main force, and strive to turn our county brigade into an independent regiment of Cao County, and undertake the task of encircling the base area." After the two of them finished speaking, Liu Qibin held the binoculars and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Old Liu, look at it, why do the little devils on both sides seem to be rushing here?" Don't make us dumplings! Liu Hongyun smiled: "That's right." 1When the little devils fight us, we will let them divide the army and divide the army, and withdraw the beans all over the land. When we fight the little devils, we have to let them concentrate and concentrate again, so that Commander Li Chang's artillery can pick them up. If the little devils are not concentrated, the hit rate of the shells will be low. How many shells does it cost? You can rest assured, behind us is the Luxinan Garrison Brigade. Behind the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade is the most sharp Jiao Yi Brigade in our army and even in the whole country, and 1 little devil is dying! As soon as we fight here, when the little devils surround us, the troops of the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade behind will support us and cover our transfer. ”

As soon as Liu Hongyun's voice fell, I... The devil's infantry artillery shells fell in Shizhuang, and the thatched houses in the village soon caught fire. Fortunately, the villagers have already moved, otherwise they would have been crying immediately.

As soon as the shelling stopped, 1 little devil came up. This time, the devils followed the tactics of the infantry cào code, the infantry put on bayonets, and the machine gun group and grenadier group followed behind, forming a battle formation and rushing towards Shizhuang.

Liu Hongyun saw this posture and was happy. He said to Liu Qibin with a smile: "Old Liu, we are really blessed to have encountered a large army of devils attacking. Tell the fighters that there is a village cover, don't be afraid, it's still the old rule, five bullets per person, just like shooting a target, aim and then hit.

Whoever can't hit a devil with five bullets will go home and plant sweet potatoes. Cao County Brigade don't want this kind of wretch! "Liu Qibin is a little older, he knows the world very well, and knows that the reason why the county brigade fought well just now today is that the soldiers did not appear to be scared, nor did they stand up and shout and be hit by the little devils, the key is because everyone knows that there are large troops waiting to clean up the little devils behind them! Therefore, he immediately ran to the front of the position, and a squad shouted from squad to squad: "Comrades, don't be nervous, what you have in front of you is not a little devil, but a pile of stones, aiming at them accurately, and hitting them hard."

After firing the five bullets, we will withdraw, and the main forces will cover us. Captain Liu said that if anyone can't hit a little devil with five bullets, he will go home and plant sweet potatoes, and the county brigade doesn't want this kind of nose bag! ”

Not to mention, Liu Qibin's shout really worked. Some of the soldiers who were sweating in their palms just now and their eyes were dizzy were no longer nervous, and the guns in their hands were also held steadily, and they also remembered the three points and the line, and began to aim.

After the little devil entered the shè process, Liu Hongyun fired, and the twenty shell guns were a little shè, beating a fat little devil with a plaster flag on his bayonet and gnawing on the mud.

The captain's gunfire was an order, and the county brigade hidden in Shizhuang opened fire, and the bullets were once again poured at the little devil. This time, the hit rate was significantly improved, and with a round of shè blows, 1 little devil left sixty or seventy corpses outside Shizhuang Village. There were also casualties in the Caoxian County Brigade, where a squad of fighters was drowned in flames by the devil's shells, and more than a dozen fighters were wounded by fragments of grenadier grenades from the little devils.

The Caoxian County Brigade retreated again, and the soldiers supported the wounded, left Shizhuang, and retreated along the trench towards Panjing behind. Their task has been completed, there is a battalion of the First Garrison Regiment of the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade of the Eighth Route Army in Panjing, and the muzzle of the black dòngdòng is waiting for the little devil!

By the time the little devil's plane arrived at 8 o'clock to bomb, the Cao County Brigade had already crossed Panjing,

Retreat to Qinggangji. Zhang Renchu and political commissar Mo Wenye of the First Garrison Regiment of the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade commanded the troops to start blocking the devils.

Zhang Renchu's First Garrison Regiment is now the first-class main force of the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade. After some time ago, the 38th Division's logistics and baggage troops were attacked and harassed, and as soon as they met the fire with the little devils, the attacking devils understood that they had encountered the real main force of the Eighth Route Army, and began to report non-stop, urging the divisional combat convoys and field artillery wings to speed up.

Everything is developing according to Liu Yimin's concept. Now, the Japanese convoy and the 230th Wing in the car have also arrived, and Chen Shiqu reported that he requested to join the siege, waiting for Liu Yimin to order a full-scale attack.
