Chapter 439 Xiongzhou Town 3
"This, that's the end?" As soon as the gunfire stopped, Xu Guangzong and his party, who saw dozens of Japanese soldiers riding out of the city and fleeing far away, knew that the Japanese **** had been defeated with their butts, but it only took more than an hour to add up. You must know that there are hundreds of devil soldiers in the town, and when they entered the city before, they saw several heavy machine guns placed by the Japanese army on the city wall, as well as some small steel cannons. Although the Japanese army had very few troops, they were based on the city, and at least the thousands of remnants of the 41st Army who were driven to Baiyangdian did not dare to come to attack the idea of Xiongzhou Town. But when I walked back to the street, I saw that the mutilated corpses of the Japanese soldiers were being carried aside, and the head of the city was quickly cleared.
", it's not over? Can you still see the devil standing? Xu Guangzong said angrily, just now a round of artillery bombardment by the Northwest Army blew up the house where they were hiding, and a few people would have almost been buried alive if they hadn't seen the opportunity quickly.
"His grandmother's, this Northwest Army is fierce in battle." Another black man is also snorting, their 41st Army has fought with the Japanese army a lot of times, not to mention the Japanese army, which used to fight hundreds of bandits to defend the cottage, this is a ladder to the city, and it took most of the time to throw grenades to get the village down. Compared with the speed at which the Northwest Army is almost devastating, it is not at the same level at all.
"Stop, what are you ghosts worshipping, what are you doing?" Soon, several members of the Northwest Army discovered Xu Guangzong and his party.
"Chief, sir, we are the 41st Division of the 119th Army. Soldiers of Dou Lianxi's brigade. Before retreating all the way to Xiongzhou Town. Later, the Japanese army came over, and the brothers dispersed, so they followed Dou Company Commander all the way to Baiyangdian. After several battles with the Japanese army, the brothers suffered many casualties. The brigade commander ordered a few of us to sneak into the town to buy some medicine and go back, but we didn't expect to run into your siege, and a few of us were almost killed by a few cannons just now. Xu Guangzong said with some fear at this time.
"41 Army's? How many more people do you have over there in Baiyangdian? Battalion Commander Zhu Changfu was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked.
"Before, our brigade had less than 1,400 people left, but many of the troops were scattered by the Japanese army. After arriving in Baiyangdian, a lot of defeated soldiers were collected, and some militia groups were recruited, and now there are more than 3,000 people. Xu Guangzong pondered for a moment.
"More than 3,000 people, but it can come in handy, I hope you don't tell a lie, otherwise you can't afford the crime of delaying the military situation, come with me." Zhu Changfu waved his hand, and several soldiers walked in the direction of Li Chunrun with Xu Guangzong and a few people.
"Evacuate the rest of the town as quickly as possible, the people of the town have already suffered under our artillery fire once. The main forces of the 6th Division came at the back, according to their habit of killing. It's not like we're going to stop shelling at the end. Li Chunrun put his hands behind his back and watched as the soldiers at the entrance of the city were quickly cleaning up the debris, putting sandbags in the gap to build a simple line of defense. At the same time, many soldiers built barricades and heavy machine-gun positions in the streets.
"There was already a preliminary result of the captured ordnance, and the Japanese had only time to destroy a small part of it due to time and manpower constraints. IN SEVERAL SEPARATE ARMORIES, THERE ARE STILL 16 38-TYPE 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS, 8 92MM INFANTRY GUNS, 6 37MM BATTLE DEFENSE GUNS, 8 20MM MACHINE GUNS, MORE THAN 8,000 SHELLS OF ALL KINDS, AND NEARLY 100 GRENADIERS OF ALL KINDS. There are more than 300 light machine guns, more than 80 heavy machine guns, and 38 rifles, and the number of bullets has not yet had time to be counted, but there are about 7,000 or 8,000 rifles, and there are always about 2 or 3 million rounds of bullets. There are nearly 20,000 quintals of military rations. If you count the munitions that were blown up, the Japanese army really stockpiled a lot of things here. ”
Chief of Staff Sun Yi only slightly integrated these materials, after all, the time is urgent, first understand how many hole cards in his hand, and then make reasonable arrangements for the later battles. "If it weren't for Liu Ziqing's mistake this time, the Japanese army would have started, even if we withstood it, it would be enough to choke."
"Damn, it would be nice if there were several heavy field artillery, if there were those guys, not to mention the main force of the 6th Division, even Gu Shoufu would come in person, and Lao Tzu would be able to fight with him." Li Chunrun said indignantly.
"Okay, Brother Binpu, don't be too full of big words, we only have more than 13,000 people in a full division, and more than 28,000 people in a standing division during the war, and now the Japanese army's replenishment ability is very strong, even if we knock it out piecemeal, get rid of thousands of people, and then get rid of the more than four brigades that the Japanese army was intercepted this time, Gu Shoufu wants to clean up us." Sun Yi rolled his eyes, he wanted to fight with a permanent division of the Japanese army, even if it was the Northwest Army, it would have to have at least two regular divisions, and then some technical arms could compete with the other side, and even the Japanese army had armored troops at the division and regiment level, and it was slightly inferior after heavy artillery. As for what Li Chunrun said, he wanted to fight Gu Shoufu with a few heavy artillery, and the cowhide blew into the sky.
"Didn't I say it, besides Wu Keren, and Commander Zhao can watch me being surrounded and annihilated by the Japanese army?" Hit by Sun Yi, Li Chunrun also said a little curtly, and then said, "This is the first time that the Japanese army's Type 92 infantry guns have been captured, while the main force of the Japanese army has not yet arrived, and the encirclement has not yet closed, a truck is used to pull a door to Baoding, sent to the northwest, to see if it can be imitated, this 75MM mountain gun is also a little heavy, and the power of the 37MM battle cannon is a little insufficient, the Japanese army's 92 infantry guns are curved fire, flat fire dual-purpose, lightweight, and very convenient to transport." If it can be copied from the arsenal, it is suitable for large-scale equipment. ”
"Well, we have to send an infantry gun back earlier, otherwise there will really be a fight in the back, and if the situation deteriorates, it may not be able to be saved." Sun Yi said in agreement.
"Report, division, I met a few people in my humble position, saying that it was the 41st Army's Han Lianxi Brigade, and now their brigade has retreated to Baiyangdian for rectification, and now Han Lianxi has more than 3,000 people on the Baiyangdian side." Zhu Changfu said.
"Really? Immediately send a telegram to Brigade Commander Han, and ask them to come to Xiongzhou Town to join our army. As long as Han Lian is happy, I will give him a whole set of full-day equipment! Li Chunrun was overjoyed when he heard this, originally the biggest problem he is facing now is the lack of troops, although the equipment of the 41st Army is a little worse, but at present, Li Chunrun, who has just occupied Xiongzhou Town, is not lacking in weapons and equipment. Even if the combat strength of the 41st Army is not as good as that of the Northwest Army, as long as it can be sandwiched into the bowl at the moment, where can it still be picked. Besides, the 41st Army was only a little poorly equipped, and it dared to fight when it encountered the Japanese army, although the Tianjin side was defeated, Sun Dianying successfully brought the main force down, and caused some casualties to the Japanese army.
