Chapter 1287 is another great victory

The blow of the Chinese Air Force to the headquarters of the 20th Division and the morale of the forward troops of the Japanese army far exceeded everyone's imagination. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the commander of the 40th Brigade, Yamashita Fumi, tried his best to control the spread of rumors, the huge explosion sound coming from the headquarters of the division and regiment and the smoke of gunpowder reaching into the sky could not be concealed at all. Subsequently, the Chinese Air Force went and returned, continued to attack the positions of the defenders, and if it had not achieved its purpose of attacking, how could it have come back so quickly?

The tenacity of the Japanese also depends on the situation, the 20th Division was originally a newly replenished soldier, the fighting will and cohesion of the officers and men are far inferior to before, coupled with the fact that they have been subjected to the accurate strikes of the mortars and snipers of the squadron, every time the officers and soldiers who are replenished to the front line are exhausted after a long period of support, and then continue to replenish a batch of them, the Japanese army's psychology is on the verge of collapse, and now it sees its division and regiment headquarters being attacked by the Chinese Air Force, and its psychology is almost unbalanced.

At this time, when it was time for the front-line position to replenish the troops, when the officers at all levels held whips and vigorously whipped the reinforcing officers and soldiers who were cowering, someone finally broke out, picked up a gun and aimed at Shaozo who beat him is a shot, Shaozuo fell in disbelief holding his stomach, and the officers and soldiers who fired the shot screamed hysterically, and threw the Type 38 rifle in his hand to the ground like a ghost, and ran away.

With the leader, the team instantly stirred, and the Japanese soldiers, who had long been unable to bear it, shot at the officials around them, and then fled frantically from this frightening place like an exploding pot, and for a while, the position was in chaos. The officers and men in the various anti-artillery holes behind the defensive line, seeing that their troops were in a rout, joined the fleeing army regardless of it.

Yamashita Fengwen's eyes were broken, he pulled out the knife at his waist, and slashed at the two fleeing soldiers in a row, and just as he continued to slash to the third, the soldier who had already fallen into a state of madness howled and rushed up, grabbed his neck vigorously, and shouted with a distorted face, "I will strangle you, I will strangle you......"

Seeing that the situation was not good, a staff officer took out a pistol and pointed a few shots at the soldier's back, and several other staff officers hurriedly stepped forward to help up the coughing Yamashita Fengwen, one of whom pointed to the chaotic deserters and reminded loudly: "General, the rout can't be stopped, let's withdraw first!" ”

Yamashita remembered the order given by Kawagishi Bunzaburo to hold on until dark, and shouted miserably: "Heaven will kill me!" He raised the knife in his hand and wanted to cut himself. Several staff officers hurriedly snatched the knife from his hand, threw it on the ground indiscriminately, and explained it one after another, this one said, "The division commander and the commander of the Takagi brigade, the general is already the only hope of our division", and the other said, "The spirits of General Kawagishi and General Takagi in the sky do not allow the general to give up on himself so much".

With the collapse of the defense line of the 20th Division, the 109th Division, which was also supplemented by "soldiers in the countryside", soon deserted, and it quickly turned into a major rout that affected the entire defense line. Countless deserters filled the fields, running headless and brainlessly to the rear, their only thought was to leave the battlefield, away from artillery fire and bullets, away from the terrible squadron.

Yang Guan and Zhang Zuying, who had been notified by Lu Yixuan in advance, immediately ordered the Independent Division and the 17th Division to chase and kill, as long as they saw that the Japanese stopped and gathered resistance, they quickly concentrated light and heavy firepower to strangle them, and the weak resistance of the Japanese army was like a small reef in the impact of a huge wave, which was instantly shattered.

In the loud trumpet of the squadron, in the overwhelming shouting of killing, the Japanese army became more and more panicked, threw down all the heavy objects on their bodies, and fled lifelessly.

This hearty pursuit and escape, from Langfang to the Qinglong River along the line, the Japanese sporadic forces occupied Anping, Hexiwu, Hebei Tun, Cui Huangkou and other towns one by one, one by one, if it is not late, Lu Yixuan is worried about the unnecessary losses of the independent division and the 17th division, urgently ordered to stop the pursuit, it is estimated that it will be killed all the way to the North Canal.

However, when Rao finally fled to various Japanese strongholds and then gathered in Tangshan for reorganization, the 20th and 109th Divisions of the Japanese Army combined were less than 5,000 people. If it were not for the bad international and domestic influences, it is estimated that the numbers of these two divisions would be cancelled.

......

When night falls, Beiping, Song Zheyuan's private residence in Wuyiku.

Seeing Feng Zhi'an and Zhang Zizhong disappear into the alley surrounded by their respective guards, Song Zheyuan let out a long sigh. Although in this purely private meeting, the two former generals expressed their full support for their deputy commander of the theater, after all, their relationship with each other is no longer subordinate, let alone personnel jurisdiction, and there is always an awkwardness when getting along.

Just as Song Zheyuan turned around and was about to go back to the house, he suddenly heard an urgent call: "Chairman Song......"

It's been a long time since anyone called himself like this, Song Zheyuan turned around in some surprise, only to see that on the steps below, a middle-aged man in a long shirt and a felt hat was entangled with the guards, and hurriedly walked down the steps, stopped the guards, and then asked the middle-aged man: "This gentleman, what do you want to find me Song Mingxuan?" ”

When the middle-aged man saw Song Zheyuan, his face was happy, and he deliberately lowered his voice: "Chairman Song, I'm Zhang Qingyu, have you forgotten us?" ”

Song Zheyuan was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and put his hands on the other party's shoulders, "You are Zhang Hexuan, Tong ......" Song Zheyuan suddenly thought of something, looked around vigilantly, and whispered, "This is not the place to talk, let's go in and talk slowly!" With that, he took the middle-aged man's hand and walked quickly into the house.

It turned out that this middle-aged man named Zhang Qingyu was one of the two captains of the traitor armed Jidong Security Team stationed in Tong County, the eastern suburb of Beiping.

In May 35, when eastern Hebei was designated as a demilitarized zone, Chiang Kai-shek secretly ordered Yu Xuezhong to train five special police units and go to eastern Hebei, where Yu Xuezhong transferred two regimental commanders Zhang Qingyu and Zhang Yantian of the 51st Army and some battalion and company officers, and recruited more than 15,000 new soldiers from various counties in Hebei to form the first and second special police corps of Hebei, which were stationed in Tongxian and Xianghe. By September, the puppet regime in eastern Hebei was established, and the great traitor Yin Rugeng renamed it the eastern Hebei security team, and the internal personnel arrangements remained the same, and they were under the control of the puppet regime. Most of the officers and soldiers had no choice but to work for the traitor regime, and this is the origin of the Jidong Security Force.

Yin Rugeng's traitorous behavior was reprimanded by the people of the whole country, and the eastern Hebei security team was also angrily accused, and Zhang Qingyu's son learned that his father was serving in the puppet eastern Hebei regime, thinking that this was an act of treason and humiliating to his ancestors, so he published a newspaper to dissociate himself from the father-son relationship. Many relatives, friends, and fellow villagers of the officers and men of the Jidong Security Corps also regarded them as heinous criminals and did not want to associate with them anymore. After the Jidong security team belonged to the puppet regime, the two captains felt that their faces were gloomy, but they did not have the courage to break with the traitor regime. Under the pressure of public opinion throughout the country and in the situation of betrayal and separation from their relatives, they felt uneasy, but they did not dare to act rashly, so they had to endure the humiliation for the time being and wait for the opportunity.

At the end of the 35th year, Song Zheyuan served as chairman of the Political Affairs Committee of the Jicha Procuratorate. Zhang Qingyu and Zhang Yantian felt that they should take advantage of this opportunity to show their hearts to Song. Since they and Song were both members of the Brotherhood, they found Zhang Shusheng, the leader of the Hebei Brotherhood, and asked him to contact Song and express his willingness to follow Song to resist Japan. Song Zheyuan attached great importance to it after hearing about it. In order to avoid attracting the attention of the Japanese and traitors, Song Zheyuan specially invited the two to his private house in Tianjin to meet secretly. Zhang Qingyu and Zhang Yantian felt very excited when they saw that Song Zheyuan did not discriminate against them in the Jidong security team, and talked with Song Zheyuan for a long time. At the end of the conversation, Song Zheyuan gave each of them 10,000 yuan in cash, encouraged their actions, and repeatedly told them to train the army well and prepare for war with the Japanese. Zhang Qingyu and Zhang Yantian were very grateful, thanked Song Zheyuan again and again, and said that they would follow Song Zheyuan to serve the country and make meritorious contributions to the country at every opportunity.

Now, the Sino-Japanese war has officially begun, and the first team in China has won one after another, seeing that the recovery of Pingjin is imminent. Zhang Qingyu felt that the time had come for the Jidong Security Force to put things in order, and when he heard that the North China Theater Command had moved to Beiping, Zhang Qingyu specially came to Song Zheyuan's private residence in disguise to visit in order to gain the support and echo of the squadron.

Back in the living room, the guests and hosts sat separately. Without waiting for the tea to be served, Zhang Qingyu said straight to the point: "Chairman Song, now it's time for us to fulfill our promise, please allow us to launch an uprising!" ”

Song Zheyuan nodded with satisfaction: "In the past ten days, the squadron has won successive battles, and the battles of Langfang, Wanping, and Baoding have eliminated the main force of the Japanese army in the open field one after another, and the Chinese people are excited. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Wuqing City, the gateway to the north of Tianjin, was recovered by the 40th Division, and at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the Independent Division and the 17th Division attacked, annihilating more than 20,000 men of the 20th and 109th Divisions of the Japanese Army in one fell swoop, and successfully advancing the battle line along the Qinglong River. Encouraged by the 17th Army, Zhang Xinchen, who was stationed in Daxing and Huangcun, suddenly exerted his strength and took the Tuanhe River and Maju Bridge in one fell swoop, connecting with the defense line of the 17th Army of the Fifth Army. At this time, the Jidong security team launched an uprising, and it was the right time! ”

Zhang Qingyu said gratefully: "Chairman Song, you need us to ......"

Song Zheyuan shook his head with a wry smile and interrupted Zhang Qingyu's words: "He Xuan, don't call me the chairman anymore, just call me commander or simply call me by my name." With the war between China and Japan, the Jicha Political Affairs Committee has become history, such as Qi Xieyuan, Hou Wuliang, Tang Erhe, Chen Juexian, Pan Yugui, Bai Jianwu, Zhang Arc, these Jicha members, almost all openly defected to the Japanese and became traitors, and Mingxuan was ashamed to be with them! ”

Zhang Qingyu felt the same way: "Commander Song, don't be sad, haven't I lived for more than two years with the infamy of a traitor?" I believe that as long as we drive the Japanese out of the Great Wall and out of China, we will be able to wash away the shame on our bodies. ”

Song Zheyuan said happily: "Okay, I look forward to this day coming soon." He Xuan, tell me what you plan to do first? ”

Zhang Qingyu said solemnly: "I want to wait for Commander Song's army to enter Tongxian, and immediately launch an uprising with the security team of Xianghe, we cooperate inside and outside, I believe that none of the traitors and the Japanese in Tongxian and Xianghe can escape!" ”

Song Zheyuan took the case: "Okay, let's act overnight and strive that after dawn tomorrow, Tongxian and Xianghe have returned to the hands of the Chinese!" ”

Zhang Qingyu stood up and solemnly gave a military salute: "Yes!" ”
