Looking back at the battle in the eastern Hebei direction, Yang Chengwu's achievements in Zhangjiakou greatly stimulated Tie Xinlan on the eastern Hebei front. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After learning that Yang Chengwu's headquarters had taken down Zhangjiakou, which was heavily defended by the Japanese army, in just one month, and also gave the command headquarters to a pot, the division commanders and brigade commanders of the Japanese army did not run away except for a few small miscellaneous fish who were lucky enough to escape from the front-line command of the operation.
In addition, even the 10th Division, the strongest division of the Japanese army, was completely eaten by the troops of the Chanan Military Region, and this record was enough to make Yang Chengwu become a famous general in the Suicha Military Region second only to Ma Zheng.
The most important thing is that after this battle, the Peiping defensive circle painstakingly managed by the Japanese army can no longer become a system, and its merits are indeed extraordinary.
Stimulated, Tie Xinlan immediately organized troops to carry out a fierce attack on the Japanese puppet army in Tangshan City, and ordered Niu Dazhuang's department, which had just been expanded into the 18th Division, to immediately reinforce and turn north, and go to Lulong and Qian'an to garrison the first line, so as to block the Third Army of the Japanese Kwantung Army outside this line and buy time for the Eighth Route Army in the pass to gather and annihilate the North China Front.
The drastic change in the war situation in North China made General Okamura Ninji really feel the threat of death, and after the remnants of the defeated troops on the front line fled all the way back to Beiping, the Japanese expatriates in the entire Beijing-Tianjin area immediately panicked.
Ma Zheng's subordinates and the rest of the Eighth Route Army, and even the Nationalist government's troops, were two different concepts, especially when dealing with Japanese expatriates, who did not give any preferential treatment to these expatriates because they were ordinary people, and were treated as prisoners, especially adult men, like almost all Japanese prisoners.
The defenders of Zhangjiakou Castle are a good example, if it weren't for the fact that Ueda was still a successful commander who decisively chose to surrender when he saw that the situation was irreversible, otherwise, there would be no second outcome for those surviving expatriates and soldiers except to perish.
On October 22, 1941, after two months of hard fighting, Ma Zheng's troops finally occupied Xuanhua, Chicheng, Chongli and other peripheral towns, and the main force approached Changping and Miyun counties.
The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army telegraphed the entire Eighth Route Army to immediately dispatch and attack regardless of time and place, from the stronghold of the Japanese puppet army to the county towns heavily garrisoned by the Japanese army.
The 129th Division dispatched troops to the southeast of Shanxi and southern Hebei, occupying more than 20 county towns in just over a month, and the 120th and 115th divisions also displayed their might in Henan and the central Hebei Plain.
Not to be outdone, the Nationalist Government immediately marched south with the support of Lao Chiang, and the 100,000 Nationalist Army in Zhongtiao Mountain immediately marched south and fought to the death against the Japanese First Army stationed in northern Henan.
Although the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is not ordinary, and the Japanese army stationed in northern Henan is even more rare, it cannot withstand the large number of Wei Lihuang's troops, and Hu Zongnan's troops under Wei Lihuang are known as the first army in the world, and the quality of its soldiers and weapons and equipment are among the best among the Kuomintang troops, and its combat effectiveness is also not to say. As soon as he struck, he completely annihilated an infantry brigade of the Japanese army in Fushan, forcing the Japanese 41st Division to retreat immediately.
Nearly 300,000 Jin Sui troops attacked from central Jin to southern Jin, and because Yan Xishan's prestige in Shanxi was unparalleled, the Jin Sui army actually knocked down the main cities and counties in the southeast of Jin in a short period of time, and the territory of Shinozuka Yoshio was rapidly shrinking.
Although Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka can be regarded as an excellent commander in the Japanese Army, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, no matter how powerful Yoshio Shinozuka is, but under the siege of nearly 700,000 Eighth Route Army, he is really powerless with only 50,000 or 60,000 Japanese troops and 100,000 puppet troops in his hands, and more than 100,000 people can only be beaten and retreated.
Although the Japanese army's aviation now controls absolute air supremacy, these local forces in China are the kings in the dark, and the Japanese puppet army can not rest well every night, the Eighth Route Army and the Kuomintang troops appear under the city like ghosts, and the First Army can only retreat step by step, waiting for a possible miracle.
Peiping. Command of the North China Front.
The atmosphere in the richly renovated office was extremely tense, and at this time, General Okamura Ninji had already lost his previous demeanor. He has always been mild-mannered and irritable for many days, and many high-ranking Japanese officers have been punished by His Excellency the Commander, and even split a guard alive who made a mistake two days ago.
"Get me that idiot from Hojo Sansuke, and by the way, inform Plains that they will immediately convene a military meeting, and invite Wang Sang, Qi Sang, and Zhang Sang." Okamura Ninji shouted out the door.
"Hay!"
Soon Ma Zheng's troops beat the Xuanhua garrison general Major General Hojo Sansuke, and all the Japanese officers above the rank of major general who remained in Beiping came, and some high-ranking traitors of the puppet Beiping Provisional Government, such as Wang Kemin, Qi Xieyuan, and others, were also "honored" to attend this military meeting.
When everyone arrived, Eiichi Hihara quickly walked to Okamura Ninji's office and invited Okamura Ninji out.
The sound of hard footsteps sounded in the silent corridor, and all the senior officers of the Japanese puppet army sitting in the conference room knew that this was the appearance of His Excellency the Commander, and they had seen such a graceful appearance more than once in the past year.
Everyone quietly lowered their heads, during this time, His Excellency the commander knew the mood, and he could not delay the future of most of his life because of a small mistake, so every senior officer of the Japanese puppet army seemed extremely pious.
Seeing that these officers were all behaving very well, Senior General Okamura Ninji was very uncomfortable, but it was rare that he did not get angry.
Now that the Eighth Route has been approaching the city, it may not be long before he, the commander of the Front, will become a prisoner of the Zhina, and it is likely that some of these officers will take his place and become the new commander of the Front, and of course, he may also be reduced to ashes with the city.
But in any case, the current Okamura Ninji is full of loss in his heart, he came with confidence at the beginning of his tenure in North China, but the result is that he has been hit by continuous heavy blows, not to mention the loss of troops, and now the entire front army is about to be driven out of North China, and even the whole of North China.
Cleaning up his feelings, Okamura Ninji cleared his throat and said: "Gentlemen, now that the people of China have come to the city, and the war in the entire North China has been seriously eroded, I, the commander, have an unshirkable responsibility to live up to His Majesty's expectations. I hereby swear, but if the city of Peiping is not safe, I will stay in Peiping with all of you to deal with all possible situations, and I will never escape alone. ”
"Hay!"
"Gentlemen, now in addition to the situation in Shandong, we have almost lost most of North China, the Eighth Route Army, the Jin Sui Army, the Central Army and Ma Zheng's wolf million-strong army to besiege our front army, and the reinforcements have not arrived for a long time, so we need to work hard for you, please!"
"Hay!" All the generals said in unison.
Then Okamura Ninji continued: "Yesterday, His Excellency Yan Junliu, commander of the Shina Dispatch Army, sent a telegram saying that the reinforcements of the five divisions have been formed, and they will be shipped to North China soon, and as long as our army holds out for more than half a month, there will be enough troops to counterattack. In addition, the base camp will also send reinforcements from five divisions to support the front army in a short period of time, so the current battle situation is up to you! ”
"Loyal to His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Long live the Great Japanese Empire! Long live His Majesty the Emperor! ”
