Chapter 689: The Fall (I)
July 25, 1937, Jinan, Shandong.
Han Fuyu has a headache now, and the Japanese are forcing him to cooperate! But he doesn't want to bear the infamy of being a "traitor"! This kind of reputation can't even be raised by the descendants of that child!
In the past, Han Fuyu cooperated well with the Japanese, and for the sake of attacking, Japan did not allow the Central Army to enter the Shandong territory. And Han Fuyu was also very supportive of this, and even notified the Japanese of the transit of the Central Army.
Some small benefits were also given to the Japanese, which led the Japanese to think that Han Fuyu was a "person who could cooperate"! Even in 1936, the commander of the Japanese Combined Fleet, Takahashi Dai, came to Shandong and praised Han Fuyu in person.
"Recently, there have been many events in Japan and China, and Dushan Shandong is as quiet as ever, and it is all the strength of your chairman to maintain it."
But after the events of 7.7, that changed! The Japanese found Han Fuyu and gave a request! Han Fuyu had to agree to stand on the side of the Japanese army in the event of a war, and to remain neutral even if he couldn't.
The one who came to negotiate was Masashi Hanaya, one of the three birds of the former Kwantung Army!
After returning to the Japanese with the troops, Hanaya got in touch with Ishihara Waner. Although the dead ghost Itagaki Seishiro has been hanged, Ishihara still remembers the friendship between Hanaya Masashi and himself who were once colleagues in the Kwantung Army.
Therefore, Ishihara Waner recommended Hanaya to become the coordinator of the Qingdao garrison. Responsible for intelligence and bribery, and the main object of work is Han Fuyu!
"Chairman Han, those who know the times are Junjie! You can also see the current situation, I believe you will make the right choice......" This is Hua Guzheng's reply after Han Fuyu said to think about it.
Looking at the gloomy face of Hua Gu when he was leaving, Han Fuyu knew that his honeymoon period with the Japanese was coming to an end! Hua Guzheng didn't expect Han Fuyu to agree.
He hoarded a large number of troops in Qingdao, and what he was prepared for was that Han Fuyu would fight hard if he didn't agree!
And now, the Japanese army has broken the original silence and clashed with the militia under Han Fuyu! From Qingdao to Yantai to Weifang, in fact, they have all been controlled by the Japanese army!
And the reason why they stopped was just to wait for the reinforcements of the troops and Han Fuyu's attitude! If Shandong can be successfully occupied, the Japanese army will naturally be reluctant to use force.
"Chairman, what are we going to do?!" But seeing Han Fuyu's confidant, Sun Tongxuan, said to Han Fuyu worriedly: "The Wehrmacht is fighting the Korean side, if we don't take action, we can't do it!" ”
"Now the chief officer below is arguing very much! Especially Cao Leshan. He said directly: If the chairman does not fight, I am afraid that the officers and men of the Third Route will not agree, and there will not be many people who will go with the chairman......
Han Fuyu pinched the telegram and still didn't say a word, and all kinds of complicated looks flashed in his eyes.
Cao Fulin is also a veteran who followed Feng Yuxiang in the early years, and his qualifications are no worse than Han Fuyu! The current commander of the 55th Army and the commander of the 29th Division is stationed in Zibo with his troops to monitor the Japanese army in the direction of Naweifang.
During this period, Han Fuyu's Third Route Army was expanded into the Third Army, with a total of five divisions and one brigade, plus several militia regiments. There are 80,000 of them! But the most elite troops were only those two or three divisions.
The rest, not at all worthy of a battle! And what Han Fuyu is most worried about is that once he loses the troops, his fate will be even worse. Jiang Zhongzheng will not be polite to the water dogs, and without the troops, it is equivalent to having no minions!
It's not at the disposal of Jiang Zhongzheng?! Han Fuyu hesitated, he had no heavy artillery troops, and now he was just some mortars supported by the Wehrmacht. If this had been against the Japanese planes and artillery units, the consequences could be imagined.
Han Fuyu's fist loosened and clenched, clenched and loosened...... It's always undecided.
In Tianjin, Song Zheyuan's 29th Army was facing a more complicated situation. The Japanese army was obviously gathering troops, but the message from Nanjing was not to attack without authorization unless the Japanese attacked!
Song Zheyuan also did not have the strength to attack. The Japanese troops gathered in the Japanese concession have obviously exceeded 10,000! There were all kinds of artillery, and Song Zheyuan's troops were only the 29th Army and the First Army.
Because the Wehrmacht occupied a place in the northeast, Song Zheyuan lost the battle of Xifengkou's fame. But at the same time, it also made Song Zheyuan feel that the Japanese army was not invincible.
At this time. The commander of the troops in the concession has been replaced by Lieutenant General Kiyoji Kazuki.
And what Song Zheyuan has in his hands is nothing more than the dissatisfaction of the three divisions. The 37th Division, Division Commander Feng Zhi'an, the 38th Division, Division Commander Zhang Zizhong, the Provisional Second Division, Division Commander Liu Ruming. These three divisions constituted the entire 29th Army.
There were only more than 10 field artillery and mountain artillery pieces in the entire 29th Army, no more than 100 heavy machine guns, only two light machine guns per company, and most of the rifles were made in Hanyang and imitated in Shanxi. What was different was that the soldiers of the 29th Army were each armed with iron broadswords.
Although the Wehrmacht supported some of their mortars and heavy machine guns, they were still too weak compared to the vitality of the Japanese army. Originally, when the Korean War broke out, Kazuki Kiyoji had already begun to arrange to fight the 29th Army.
But the Japanese intelligence officer lurking in Shanhaiguan came with news that the Wehrmacht troops in Shanhaiguan were about to move, which directly frightened Kiyoji Kazuki! In the end, there was only a skirmish with the 29th Army, and the troops were urgently withdrawn.
The Wehrmacht garrison at Shanhaiguan had an entire corps. And Kazuki Kiyoji only has less than 20,000 troops in his hands. Originally, the Japanese army intended to at least annihilate or attract the main forces of the Wehrmacht after the war in Korea.
As a result, he did not expect his own troops to be driven back into the defensive line. It's miserable.
This directly made the entire Japanese army in the northeast fall into passivity, in fact, the reason why Hanaya Zheng came down to Han Fuyu to do the so-called "negotiation" is not a kind of compromise and concession? !
This kind of reluctance was based on the fear of the Wehrmacht.
July 25, 1937, Zhejiang.
"Boom! Rumble!! "Bombardment ......" Yanagawa Heisuke, commander of the Japanese 10th Army, led the 6th, 18th, and 114th Divisions and the Kunisaki Detachment (5th Division, 9th Brigade). Suddenly landed at Quangongting and Jinshan Weijian in Hangzhou Bay, and planned to carry out a roundabout encirclement in response to the Japanese Shanghai dispatch army.
The area around Jinshanwei was only guarded by the 63rd Division of the Chinese defenders and a small number of local armed forces, and the Japanese 10th Army successfully landed and quickly developed inland......
"Kill the enemy!!" A terrible cry resounded across the coast! Although it was foggy, the coastal defense post of the Jinsi Niangqiao Township Office still discovered the enemy situation for the first time!
"Bang bang bang bang ......" sentry clerk Zhu Xiwen led more than 10 sentinels and shot in the fog to try to resist! It's a pity that they are just a few old-fashioned rifles, how can they withstand the Japanese troops with heavy artillery?!
After a few cannon shots, Zhu Xiwen and the sentries he led fell in a pool of blood......
"Tutu Tu Tu ...... Rumble! Rumble!! Boom ...... "A company of defenders in the area of Dongsicheng in Baishawan fought bloodily, but how could a small company withstand the tens of thousands of Japanese troops who landed? !
"Resist!! No one is allowed to retreat, otherwise military law will deal with it! The company commander was roaring, and the soldiers knew that they couldn't retreat! Tie Qing's face kept shooting.
"Boom! Rumble!! Boom ......" The artillery company left behind in the Haitian Temple of Quangongting finally began to fire back artillery, but unfortunately, the retaliatory artillery of the Japanese army was ushered in! Not much. All the ink......
Hold the position, fight alone, under the fire of the Japanese army, but the defenders of a regiment mostly sacrificed their lives for the country. After more than an hour of fierce resistance, the Japanese army finally succeeded in landing with its own powerful artillery fire and troops.
The sound of the waves washed away wisps of blood, and the defenders were strewn across the beach, suffering heavy casualties.
The Japanese army thought that they could run amok, but unexpectedly encountered a company of the 63rd Division that rushed from Qingpu to reinforce the army! After the company arrived, it immediately started fighting without repair, and stubbornly resisted!
However, the Japanese firepower was too strong, and the troops were superior, but the troops were killed in one day......
On the morning of the 26th. The officers and men of the supplementary battalion of the 62nd Division stationed in Xincang resisted desperately, and most of them died heroically.
After the 6th, the enemy troops swarmed ashore, and more than 100,000 people landed in 3 days! Separate expansion and advancement.
More than 3,000 houses were burned in the vicinity of the Japanese army and Jinsi Niang Bridge, Baishawan and Quangongting, more than 500 people were slaughtered, and a large number of women were humiliated and ravaged.
More than 50 villagers in Datoubang near Baishawan were massacred, and the Japanese army tied up many old and weak patients together and stabbed them with bayonets. Kill alive, hang the child from a tree and stab him to death......
On the 29th, the enemy occupied Matsue!
"Timing ghost!" Liu Jianxu, director of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi-Anhui Border Region Pacification Office and commander of the Tenth Group Army, looked at the map and cursed with a blushing face. He is a native of Liling, Hunan. The meaning of this sentence is the unlucky ghost.
"This gang of little Japan is so fierce?! Lao Tzu's soldiers just can't stop him?! The tall and thin Liu Jianxu pulled open his collar, looked at the map and said fiercely: "Electric order!" The Gu Jiaqi Division of the 128th Division, the Zhao Yi Division of the 109th Division, together with the 1st Regiment of the Huda Division of the 11th Division, rushed to support Fengjing, defend Jiashan, and block the incoming enemy! Hold on!! Make no mistake! ”
Saying that, Liu Jianxu paused and continued: "Ouyang Liebu, the 1st Regiment of the 13th Brigade, and the Zhong Disong Department of the 368th Regiment of the 62nd Division will immediately come to join the battle!" I don't believe it, I can't stop him with 15,000 people!! ”
However, can it be stopped?!

At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon of the 10th, enemy reinforcements arrived, attacked more fiercely, and attacked our right flank. By 11 o'clock, Fengjing had finally fallen......"
