Chapter 364: Battle Pingjin 2

"In the past two days, the Japanese army has moved frequently, and our troops are now relatively scattered, if we don't assemble as soon as possible, I am afraid that there is a danger of being broken by the Japanese army." Inside the brigade headquarters, Tong Zeguang and Li Jiusi looked at the map of the Pingjin area with a worried face, which marked the movements and gathering places of the Japanese army with a red pen. At this time, the 29th Army was relatively scattered.

Just when several people were not feeling good, sporadic gunshots rang out amid the sound of the train captain.

"Kill the Exhaust Army!" Before the train could stop on the platform, the Japanese soldiers on it jumped down one by one. Although the soldiers guarding the railway station at this time could not understand the words of squeaking in their mouths, the Japanese army pulled the trigger and fired, even the most stupid people knew that the Japanese army was about to fight. Suddenly, Langfang Railway Station was bursting with gunfire. The movement of the station soon spread to Tong Zeguang's brigade headquarters.

"What's going on?" Tong Zeguang walked out with a gun, and Li Sijiu followed.

"Travel, the Japanese took the train to the station, and without saying a word, they opened fire, and now the brothers are fighting with them." Although the soldiers who came to report the news were panting, there was not much panic on their faces, and among the armies of the Republic of China, the 29th Army was probably second only to Jiang Li's Northwest Army when it fought with the Japanese.

"How many Japanese soldiers are coming?" Li Jiusi asked preemptively.

"Looks like it's supposed to be a squadron."

"******, a squadron wants to come to grab the railway station, and the 113th Brigade of Lao Tzu is muddy. the guys with Lao Tzu. Tong Zeguang was furious when he heard this.

"Brigade seat, I'll transfer the machine guns in the regiment." Li Jiusi's face also flashed fiercely.

"No need, pack up a squadron. Machine guns are also not used. There is a hard fight in the back. Don't waste those machine gun bullets. Tong Zeguang waved his hand, and the person had already walked a few steps away. Li Sijiu and the others hurriedly followed.

"Take the train station and kill the Chinese army!" Squadron Leader Kisho Isoya held a pistol and directed the machine gunners with crooked handles to shoot at the defenders at the station. However, the original garrison stationed here came one after another, which made Kisho Isogu, who originally thought that he would be able to occupy the station as long as he fought over, and suddenly became under great pressure. There was a scream, and the soldier who was only a few feet away was shot and fell. Mu Zhaoisogu, who was splashed with blood, was shocked in his heart, and at first thought that as long as he went around here, he would be able to reap full of merits. It's all strange that I listened to the words of the Kwantung Army officer before I came, saying that as long as their guns went off, the Zhina Army would flee as soon as their guns rang out. If only I had known about it. He didn't just take a squadron and run to the Langfang Railway Station.

When Tong Zeguang arrived with a team of men, the Japanese troops at the railway station had already lost twenty or thirty dead and wounded.

The bullets from the light machine gun swept back and forth, but it didn't take long for the bullets to run out and had to stop for a while. Poof

Several grenades were thrown over, and more than a dozen Japanese soldiers rushed to the side in a panic. Boom, gravel splattered on the platform.

"Kill!" Although the 38th Division of the 29th Army only had less than two battalions of the 11th Brigade of Tong Zeguang and Li Jiusi's 226th Regiment stationed here, the total of seven or eight hundred people was not something that a squadron of the Japanese army could gnaw. After all, the 29th Army is not one of those fish belly troops who run away when they hear the sound of Japanese guns. The firepower of the Japanese army assigned to the squadron is not very strong, and the quality of individual soldiers is higher, and they are Japanese elite soldiers with only rifle-based firepower. In this case, the defenders who are several times more fierce and not afraid of death can only eat turtles at this time.

Bang bang

"Withdraw. Get back to the train! Mu Zhaoguo ordered in embarrassment, shouting while withdrawing from the train with the remnants, as long as he retreated to the car and escaped by train, he could still pick up a life, go back and bring some rescuers to fight again. It's better than dying to hang on here.

The chaotic bullets flew in all directions, and the battle lasted only an hour and a half, and a squadron brought by Kiaki Kuniji successfully escaped to the train with less than 70 people, and the losses were not insignificant.

Da Da Da a soldier picked up the crooked handle left on the ground when the Japanese army retreated, and flirted with the train that had already started. An additional row of bullet holes was added to the already scarred bullet holes.

"Brigade seat, the Japanese have suffered a loss, and I am afraid that they will soon send troops to retaliate." When the soldiers at the station cheered, Li Jiusi was already frowning and looking at Tong Zeguang, who was also full of worry.

"Pull back the 2nd Battalion and the two battalions of each Anke Regiment in the vicinity of Zhaozhuang, and immediately send a report to the division seat, requesting that the remnants of the army be sent over immediately, and immediately organize manpower to mobilize the nearby citizens to assist in building fortifications near the station." Tong Zeguang ordered with a calm face. So the soldiers, who had just fought with the Japanese army, under the command of Tong Zeguang, set up sandbags on some roofs around the station.

Soon, Tong Zeguang's preparation came in handy. It was only eight or nine hours before Mu Zhao Guoji evacuated, and at about 3 o'clock in the morning, the 77th Wing of the 20th Division arrived again by train before dawn.

Tong Zeguang led the soldiers in the brigade to fight bloodily with the Japanese army, relying on some simple fortifications built with sandbags, and repelled the attacks of the 77th Wing several times when the 77th Wing was eager to retaliate and the heavy firepower it carried was insufficient. The corpses lay in disarray inside and outside the train station. The 77th Wing broke its teeth under Tong Zeguang's tough counterattack. Hundreds of people were killed and wounded, but they also failed to advance, and one squadron leader was killed in the battle. The battle lasted for several hours, and it was already dark, and the Japanese troops retreated again, and Tong Zeguang was panting with his back against the sandbag. Not to mention that he is a brigade commander, it is his superior Zhang Zizhong, Feng Zhi'an, who is at the same level as Zhang Zizhong, in the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, who is not fighting on the front line with a gun.

It is precisely because the 29th Army has a group of officers who dare to fight that the soldiers are not afraid of death. The roar of the air engine rang out, and dozens of small black dots were sharply amplified from a distance.

Tong Zeguang, Li Jiusi and the others changed their faces at the same time, and the damn big bird of the Japanese came again. Twenty-seven, a full twenty-seven planes landed in the sky above Langfang Station. It was not that Tong Zeguang's troops could really withstand the onslaught of a wing of the Japanese army. In fact, although Tong Zeguang was defending, and the 77th Wing was in a hurry to attack and did not carry many heavy weapons, the soldiers killed in the 113th Brigade were far more than the Japanese army. At this time, the Japanese army dispatched such a number of aircraft groups, in addition to the defenders really fighting tenaciously, it was also at this time that Song Zheyuan had already reacted, the 29th Army was rectifying the defense line in the Pingjin area, and Langfang Station was the key pass between Beiping and Tianjin. If Song Zheyuan's 29th Army is rearranged, it will cost several times the price at that time.

Opportunities are always given to those who are prepared, before Song Zheyuan wasted too much time in the negotiations with the Japanese, Kazuki Kiyoji finished arranging, and immediately launched a fatal blow, the 29th Army was originally far inferior to the other party, and due to insufficient preparation, hastily mobilized, this short battle was doomed before it began. Langfang Station was almost bombed into ruins. The injured Tong Zeguang moved all the way east with the remnants. Langfang was completely occupied by the Japanese army, so the previous communication between Pingjin and Tianjin was successfully cut off by the Japanese army. (To be continued.) )
