Do you do it again?

Ma Zheng never thought that after the Qingdao Navy was inexplicably attacked, the Japanese Navy in Tianjin must have been prepared, so it was almost impossible to take the port of Tianjin as easily as before. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Now he not only has more than 40 large and small warships, but also hundreds of strictly trained naval soldiers under his command, and more than 20,000 elite army troops.

As for the port, not to mention, after taking the urban area, under the joint attack of the army and the navy, a small port is not a matter of being captured, so this time Ma Zheng did not plan to play yin, he wanted to come hard, and he wanted to occupy Tianjin.

Now Ma Zheng is waiting, waiting for news from Beiping, as long as Yang Chengwu's unit transfers the 7th Brigade of the Japanese Army stationed in Tianjin out of Tianjin, his troops will immediately land near Tianjin.

However, what Ma Zheng didn't expect was that the first thing he received was not a telegram from the Tianjin defenders going north to reinforce Beiping, but the good news that Yang Chengwu's troops had taken Nanyuan Airport.

After learning that Yang Chengwu's subordinates had captured more than 40 Japanese planes, Ma Zheng was overjoyed. The last time he attacked Yangmingbao, his troops captured more than 20 Japanese planes, and by the way, they also abducted several pilots from Yan Laoxi.

A few days ago, Ma Zheng was still worried that there were too few planes, so that he didn't dare to let those fighters and the Japanese air force face each other, for fear that the air force, which had managed to pull it up by accident, would be reimbursed in this way. Unexpectedly, this time more than 40 intact planes and a large number of spare parts were captured at one time, although he did not look down on these garbage fighters of the Japanese army, but in the absence of better aircraft, these garbage as trainers is still very good.

However, what Ma Zheng wants to hear most now is the telegram that the Tianjin defenders are heading north, as long as the 7th Mixed Brigade goes north to reinforce Beiping, then the chess game laid out a few months ago will be over.

Beiping Front.

The battle to besiege Beiping has been going on for four and a half hours, and it is almost dawn when the day is approaching, but the troops still have not been able to break through the Beiping city gate and city wall, which makes Yang Chengwu a little anxious, so that he personally took a few senior officers to the West Gate position to supervise the battle.

To tell the truth, although Ma Zheng's combat mission to Yang Chengwu's department before the war was to divert the tiger from the mountain and try to attract all the little devils in Tianjin and the surrounding Qixian districts to the vicinity of Beiping, Yang Chengwu has been thinking about conquering this famous capital since he arrived in Beiping.

However, Yang Chengwu obviously underestimated the Japanese army's ability to defend the city, although the troops of the second division attacked very fiercely and fought quite bravely, but the Japanese army also fought very tenaciously, from 1 o'clock in the morning to 5 o'clock, the troops have been attacking for five hours, although the troops of the second division have attacked the city several times, but they have been defeated by the Japanese army.

According to the report of the commander of the 4th Brigade and the 2nd Regiment in charge of the attack at Ximen, the number of Japanese casualties in the Ximen position alone within five hours was no less than 4,000, but the enemy still could not finish killing like locusts.

Originally, Yang Chengwu thought that the second regiment commander was bragging, after all, there were so many little devils in the city, if the West Gate lost 4,000 people at once, plus the other three gates, it stands to reason that the Japanese puppet army in the city had already suffered casualties, why the Japanese had not been defeated, and he also found that the Japanese army on the city did not decrease at all, but gathered more and more.

But later Yang Chengwu found that the Japanese soldiers at the head of the city didn't seem to be wearing military uniforms, and most of them were wearing ordinary clothes, and their marksmanship was also terrible, and Yang Chengwu suddenly thought of a possibility.

Immediately, Yang Chengwu ordered loudly: "Hurry up and check for Lao Tzu, where are so many little devils in the city?" ”

"Yes"

Soon the results of the investigation were available, according to sources coming out of the city. The Japanese army organized more than 40,000 expatriates in the city, and formed a total of 10 expatriate volunteer groups, except for three overseas Chinese volunteer groups who were ordered to stay in the city to be responsible for the security of the city, the rest were sent to the city, and it is those overseas Chinese volunteers who are now fighting against our army.

Sure enough, as he thought, Yang Chengwu immediately scolded: "The bullshit expatriate volunteer group is just a group of ordinary expatriates with weapons. Tada Jun, who was raised by a son of a bitch, actually organized these expatriates to die, Lao Tzu said that the little devils are fighting more and more, and more than 10,000 little devils have not died after five hours, so it turns out that this is the case. It seems that it is somewhat difficult to capture Beiping City today, and the troops were ordered to temporarily stop the attack, and all the troops to rest and eat. ”

At this moment, a guard hurriedly ran to Yang Chengwu's side and reported: "Report to the commander, the reconnaissance unit found Japanese reinforcements in Qingyundian. ”

"How many Japanese reinforcements are there, and what is the specific number?" Hearing that reinforcements from the Japanese army were coming, Yang Chengwu hurriedly asked.

"Report to the commander, there are more than 5,000 reinforcements from the Japanese army, and the number is the 7th Regiment Brigade of the Japanese Army."

"Independently mixed into the 7th Brigade, grandma's, it's finally out!" The dark clouds on Yang Chengwu's face suddenly disappeared, and he said excitedly.

Lu Ming on the side also said happily: "The Seventh Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade has been stationed in Tianjin before, and it seems that the old devil of Tada Jun can't hold on, so the defenders of Tianjin have been transferred." ”

"Send a report to the commander immediately, saying that the tiger has left the mountain and can be copied into the nest." Yang Chengwu said loudly.

Although Yang Chengwu's troops stopped the attack, but Tada Jun's life was not easy, because the reinforcements from Tianjin had just sent a telegram, they were stubbornly blocked by the Chinese army in Qingyundian, and the two sides were fiercely exchanging fire, and the combat effectiveness of the Chinese people was very strong, and it was difficult to break through the blocking line of the Chinese army in a short period of time to reach Beiping.

In addition, after learning the news that Ma Zheng's troops were besieging Beiping, the troops in the second war zone of China were ready to move, and Taiyuan City, which had just calmed down, suddenly seemed to be lively again, and a large number of Jin Sui troops were gathering in Gujiao and other places, and it seemed that they were going to do something about Taiyuan City again.

The atmosphere on the Xinkou front line was once again tense, and tens of thousands of troops under Ma Zheng's headquarters were also vigorously armed, which formed a huge pressure on the Japanese Fifth Division and other troops in Xinkou City.

Tada Jun could never have imagined that the situation of the battle would take a sharp turn in such a short period of time, and even Beiping, where the headquarters of the Front Army was located, was surrounded by the Chinese people, and secondly, he also lost the airport and many important military strongholds, which was not an ordinary loss.

However, the worse news was still to come, since the afternoon when the Chinese stopped attacking, the army outside the city did not attack again, but was building barracks, apparently preparing for a long confrontation with the imperial army.

At about six o'clock in the morning, a telegram sent by the special high-tech branch on a secret radio once again stunned all the officers of the North China Front Command -- the loss of Tianjin.

Compared with the siege of the Eighth Route Army, the consequences of the loss of Tianjin were more serious. Although Beiping was the location of the headquarters of the Front Army and the most important city in northern China, it was only besieged and not breached by the Chinese people. But Tianjin is different, it has been lost.

What's more, Tianjin was the most important route for the Imperial Japanese Army in northern China, with a large number of ships docking every day, and the daily throughput of the port reached an astonishing level, with millions of tons of supplies hoarded here.

In addition, Tianjin was also the most important economic center of the Japanese Empire in the North China region, and a large number of Imperial Banks set up branches here, and a large number of Co., Ltd. set up branches here.

The most important thing is that the port of Tianjin, as the only large military port of the empire in North China, is still moored in the port with three large warships waiting to be repaired. In addition, a large amount of weapons and equipment were hoarded in the warehouses on the shore, and these weapons and equipment were all transferred from the base camp to the front army, and even if five field divisions were formed in terms of quantity alone, there would be no problem. If Tianjin is lost, then these things will all fall into the hands of the Chinese people. (To be continued.) )
