- Yanwu Town

Guan Yuanliu looked at the routs that continued to enter the city, and felt a little apprehensive in his heart, the position of the brigade in front of him was broken through in less than four hours, although there were still many scattered troops insisting on resisting, but it had nothing to do with the overall situation, and countless Eighth Route Army was engulfing them like a flood.

"The brigade commander, the brigade commander, is General Tanito Nagahide." A non-commissioned officer said, pointing into the distance.

Guan Yuanliu hurriedly looked, and sure enough, he saw several Japanese soldiers carrying a stretcher and kept walking in the direction of Yanwu Town, and he didn't know if it was because he was in a hurry or to run faster, only two or three of the small team of more than a dozen people carried rifles, and the others lost their weapons. And although the person on the stretcher couldn't see clearly, the epaulettes on the clothes told him his identity, this was a major general, not Tanto Changying.

Sekihara Roku hurriedly walked down the city, greeted him, and when he saw Sekihara Roku, the non-commissioned officer who took the lead saluted and said, "Report to the general, we are from the 21st Brigade, and this is our brigade commander, General Tanito Nagaei." ”

Sekihara Roku looked at Tanito Nagaei, who had disappeared on one leg, and couldn't help but exclaim, "How did you get it?" Why are your generals wounded? Where have you done your duty, the guards? ”

"Don't blame them, I ran into the plane of the Eighth Route Army on the way, and they also tried their best to save me from the pile of corpses." Tanito Nagaei said weakly.

Sekihara squatted down and asked, "Tanito-kun, how did the Eighth Route Army do it?" Do they have any tricks? How do I stop their attacks? ”

Tanto Changying thought for a while, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "There is no way, we don't have anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft guns now, and it is impossible to deal with the chariots of the Eighth Route Army by relying only on our machine guns and grenades, not to mention that they still have those terrible whistling heavy artillery." We can only fight them with the spirit of bushido, hehe, bushido" As he spoke, Tanito Nagaei's face became paler and paler. In the end, he fainted.

In order to block the tanks of the Eighth Route Army, he forced the soldiers to dig out the chariot trench, to put it bluntly, it was a wide and deep trench, so that the chariots of the Eighth Route Army could not pass.

People who have not used tools to dig frozen soil cannot imagine the hardness of the frozen soil in the north, and for manual labor without machinery, a spade is a white mark, and a pickaxe is a white spot, and the land is like steel. It can only be chized with steel. After digging a hole, put explosives to blow up, like blowing up the frozen soil like a mountain, you must know that although Shanxi is not cold in the northeast, but the frozen soil is not shallow, most of them are seventy or eighty centimeters thick, and places like Datong are about one and a half meters thick. If Jiang Cheng hadn't brought a large amount of explosives from later generations to blast the frozen soil layer, the positions in Xiaoyi and other places would not have been able to be built so strongly.

Sekihara and the others dug for an hour or two, but they only dug about half a meter deep, at this time. The Japanese army could already feel the shaking of the land, and the troops of the Eighth Route Army had arrived.

Xu Guangda looked at Yanwu Town in front of him and said to Xu Shiyou next to him, "The front is Yanwu Town, after here, it is Xiangle Township, and you will reach Dujiazhuang in the north." This is basically the end of our interspersed mission. ”

Xu Shiyou looked at the opposite side and said, "This little devil has built a lot of fortifications and trenches, if we are entangled here, I am afraid that it will delay time." ”

Xu Guangda's eyes lit up and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Xu Shiyou rubbed his hands and said, "Didn't the boss say it, attack." Attack, attack again, didn't let us stop and annihilate. Since the devil has set up a defensive position with Yanwu Town as the center, anyway, this is a plain, we can completely abandon it, our cavalry and your tank joint aircraft bypassed and directly attacked Xiangle Township, anyway, it is winter, there are no crops in the field, and there is no pity to go to the crops, what do you think? ”

Xu Guangda nodded and said, "Okay, that's it, let's take more infantry on horses and cars, and then go around, so that the devils want to chase but dare not chase, and they can't hit if they want to." ”

The idea was certain, and the two of them sent a telegram to tell the infantry behind them, asking them to besiege Yanwu Town, and they would go around the city.

Seeing that the Eighth Route Army was preparing to go around the city instead of beating itself, Guan Yuanliu was so anxious that Guan Yuanliu almost jumped up and down, others didn't know him, but he knew that behind him was the military headquarters, so he immediately ordered the troops to open artillery to bombard the Eighth Route Army walking around the city, wanting to rely on this method to attract Erxu's attention.

But before a few shots could be fired, more than a dozen planes roared down in the sky and threw bombs at the Japanese soldiers who were firing the artillery, so frightened that the Japanese soldiers wanted to run away with their guns.

Er Xu saw that the front was attacked, and hurriedly ordered the artillery to counter-suppress, in order to speed up their attack, Mr. Peng was equipped with all the rocket artillery, 107 rocket artillery is only more than 300 kilograms of weight can be used to run all over the ground with a war horse, after receiving the order, Teng Yifeng immediately ordered to set up an artillery position, and remove the ammunition from the horse.

It took less than seven minutes for eighteen 107 rocket launchers to fire a salvo at Yanwu Town.

Because the distance was less than three kilometers, Sekihara Roku became the first general to see the whole process of the shelling, he saw a large number of rockets suddenly appear from a distance, and then these rockets came to his position with a whistling sound, the speed was extremely fast, he didn't have time to call the soldiers to hide, the sound of the explosion reached his ears, Yanwu Town is just a small town, the fortifications are not enough at all, every rocket can kill the Japanese troops within a radius of forty or fifty meters, and more Japanese soldiers are greatly hit by the heart, they never expected such a terrible counterattack.

Some of the Japanese soldiers who fled from the frontline positions to Yanwu Town looked complacent, and said to the Japanese soldiers next to them, "How is it?" Am I right? The roaring heavy artillery of the Eighth Route Army is terrifying, and you still say that we are cowardly, but now you know what we are facing, right? ”

After a round of rocket fire, Teng Yifeng dismantled the rocket artillery again, hung up on his horse and left, and the whole process from receiving the order to start building a position to evacuating did not take more than ten minutes. Teng Yifeng scolded distressedly as he walked, "It's good to stay there honestly, but I'm going to come out and be bombed, so many rockets, damn, it's a loss!" ”

Sekihara raised his head in horror, looking at the buildings around him that were almost unrecognizable, the entire Yanwu Town was half blown up, and the air force, which saw that the Japanese army had been shocked and could not fight back, hurriedly came down to hunt. Fire at any worthy target.

Guan Yuanliu looked at the Eighth Route Army, which was circling the city at a very fast speed, and the infantry of the Eighth Route Army, which had already arrived and began to set up blocking positions, sighed and said, "Send the military headquarters, let Your Excellency the commander turn in, we have no way to stop them." ”

- Command of the Third Army

At this time, the headquarters was like the end of the world, more than a dozen staff officers kept burning important documents, Tada Jun broke free of Takeda Yixiong's arm and said, "I won't go, I am a samurai of the empire, I would rather die than escape." ”

Takeda Takeo shouted, "Your Excellency, this is not an escape, this is just a transfer for the final victory in the future." Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood! ”

Yoshimoto Sadachi also said, "Yes, Your Excellency Commander, just come with us." As he spoke, he gave Takeda a look.

Takeda Yixiong nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Offended." After saying that, he hit the back of Tadajun's neck, and Tadajun fainted as soon as he rolled his eyes.

Yoshimoto Sadachi saw Tada Jun faint and hurriedly said, "Quick, quickly protect Your Excellency the Commander, turn in, go to Dujiazhuang!" ”

- Xiaqu Town

Guarding Xiaqu Town were about 8,000 people from the two main regiments of the 120th and 115th Divisions and two new regiments, who had been fighting here for a day and a night. The entire position was littered with corpses, both from the Eighth Route Army and from the Japanese army. Intertwined with each other, the smoke billowed out, and the blood formed a bewitching red ice in the cold weather, exuding an ominous aura. From time to time, crows will approach here from the sky and want to pick up a piece of delicacies.

"Da Da Da", "Da Da Da", "Bang" "Da Da" was just quiet, but after ten minutes, the sound of gunfire and explosions came out again.

"Brigadier Xu. It's the thirty-second time, is the little devil crazy? An officer shook his head and said to a strong man in command.

That strong man is Xu Haidong of the 115th Division, Xu Haidong is Chinese New Year's Eve nine years old today, and his family has been poor since he was a child. By the time he was in his 10s, he had no clothes to wear and was naked. Covered in mud, his sisters-in-law saw him and said that it was like a stinky tofu, he had a stinky tofu nickname, he once participated in the Northern Expedition as Ye Ting's platoon commander, during the Red Army, because he could fight well, he was hated by Jiang Zhong, and his head was set at 250,000 oceans, and ****, and ordered to kill the Xu family, when Xu Haidong later went back, there was no one in the whole hometown who was of his generation, and there were 66 people with names and surnames. There were not only one or two people like him who were killed in the Red Army.

Xu Haidong opened his mouth, revealing a big hole that appeared because of the loss of his front teeth and said, "The more anxious the little devil is, the better our brother troops will fight, just now Xu Guangda has sent a telegram, they have just arrived in Xiangle, the devil there is also very tenacious resistance, he expects to be able to join us in a maximum of twelve hours." ”

The officer was Wang Shangrong, the commander of the 120th Regiment of the 715th Division, and he smiled and said, "12 hours, that's no problem, our current battle losses are less than 20%, although the devils have mountain artillery, but we also have planes, these three days, the devil's artillery fire is getting smaller and smaller, and now they are basically relying on pig tactics to attack." It's just that the consumption of this ammunition is so great that if it weren't for the constant transportation of this fellow villagers from behind, I don't know how this battle would be fought. ”

"Devil, devil is coming up again." With a shout, Wang Shangrong shook his head and said, "It's the thirty-third time." As he spoke, he took the binoculars and looked at them.

However, I saw that nearly 1,000 Japanese troops launched another charge, and the positions of the Japanese grenadiers, mortars, infantry guns, and mountain artillery were on fire everywhere. The artillery of the Eighth Route Army also continued to counterattack, and whenever the Japanese artillery became fierce, a rocket would emerge from one place and rush in the direction of the Japanese artillery.

- Dujiazhuang

Takeda Yixiong and the others finally saw the Eighth Route Army chariot they had always wanted to see, and looking at the invincible battle scene of the chariot, Takeda Yixiong couldn't help but say, "This chariot is really amazing." ”

"It's a great vehicle, it's more advanced than ours." Tada Jun rubbed his neck and walked over.

Takeda Takeo hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Your Excellency, Commander, I'm sorry, I"

Tada Jun shook his head and said, "I don't blame you, I'm too paranoid, is this the mysterious chariot of the Eighth Route Army?" It's bigger than ours, the barrel is longer than ours, but it's not as thick as ours, this is a tank invented for chariot warfare, huh? I think I've seen this model once. ”

Takeda Takeo couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Your Excellency Commander, has you seen it?" What kind of tank is this? ”

Tada Jun took the binoculars and looked at them a few more times, and said firmly, "That's right, this is the Czech LT38." Although the appearance has changed a little, it has largely not changed, damn it! Isn't this a combat vehicle that was invented just last year? Why are there so many here? ”

Takeda Yixiong was also a little surprised, on the one hand, he was surprised that the Eighth Route Army was not using the Soviet tank he imagined, and on the other hand, he was surprised that Tada Jun actually recognized this tank.

Tada Jun rolled his eyes a few times and said, "There must be a problem here, the Czech Republic has basically been controlled by Germany, but to transport these tanks here, it will take at least half a year to train troops, that is, these tanks have just been invented and sent here, who will do this?" Germany? Or the USSR? Germany's words shouldn't be, the Soviet Union's words, when did the Czech Republic and the Soviet Union have such good relations? ”

Takeda said, "If what His Excellency Commander said is true. I think it was still the Soviet Union, and it was Chiang's intermediary that Germany wanted and should give, not the Eighth Route Army. ”

Tada Jun nodded and said, "These are all things later, I know some of the parameters of this chariot, there are at least sixty here, our odds of winning are very low." The Eighth Route Army would rather sacrifice infantry than these chariots, and it basically did not succeed in trying to get close to them. We don't have anti-tank weapons either, hey, we've made such a bad intelligence mistake if I run into that woman again. I'm going to have to kill her. ”

Takeda knew that he was talking about Yoshiko Kawashima, whose whereabouts are still unknown.

"They stopped." Yoshimoto said suddenly.

Tada Jun hurriedly looked, and sure enough, the Eighth Route Army stopped about a kilometer away from the Japanese position, and when he looked at the time, it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

"They are ready to eat. We also eat, and ordered Xiaqu Town not to stop, continue to attack, and use flesh and blood to make a way for us! Tada Jun forcibly ordered.

Takeda couldn't help but be a little worried when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he said, "Your Excellency Commander, let me go, I am willing to fight a bloody way out for the troops." ”

Tada Jun looked at Takeda Takeo and hesitated, "You? ”

Takeda lowered his head and said, "I can't sit here while our warriors bleed. Now there is no longer a need for me as a staff officer, but a warrior who can open the way for the troops. ”

Tada Jun looked at the Eighth Route Army fighters flying in the sky from time to time, nodded and said, "Okay, you go, be careful all the way." ”

- Xiaqu Town

"Brigade Commander Xu, the Japanese army is crazy, many Japanese soldiers are desperately looking for us with explosives bags, and many of our soldiers are also red-eyed, and now the position is full of devils and soldiers who have died together, and the machine guns are also red, and they can't stand it." A commander hurriedly ran in and said.

Xu Haidong picked up the horsewhip and wanted to smoke it, but finally held back and said, "We are difficult, the devil is even more difficult, the devil can't stand it, it's the last madness, I tell you, even if I die, I have to hold the devil with two hands, and don't allow them to pass!" ”

"Report, the Wucun position is urgent." A communications soldier suddenly stood up and said.

"What? What the hell is Shan Degui doing? Get me on the phone now! Xu Haidong's eyes were red and he shouted.

"Connected," Xu Haidong snatched it and scolded, "Shan Degui, how did you get it?" Can't one of your regiments hold a village? ”

Shan Degui is also an old Red Army who came from the Long March Road, he only felt that his face was hot, and he said in his mouth, "Brigade commander, there are too many devils, our machine guns can't beat them, the soldiers are fighting hand-to-hand with devils, and I am afraid of many devils."

Xu Haidong's horsewhip snapped to the ground and scolded: "What can't be stopped? The entire northern front is in the way, but you can't stop it? I'm telling you! Let go of the devil and make this battle a failure, you go to the division commander yourself, no, go to Mr. Zhu to explain. ”

Before he could finish speaking, a communications soldier stood up and said, "Report, the division headquarters telegraphed, saying that the military headquarters asked who the commander opposite us was?" Why do you keep worrying? ”

Xu Haidong grabbed his head and said, "How do I know who is on the other side?" Tell the military department, I don't know, but the Japanese army is charging very quickly, very desperately, but please believe that we will be able to hold it! ”

Shan Degui said, "I know, there is a new commander on the other side, named Takeda Yixiong, who kept shouting this name just now." ”

Xu Haidong blinked and said, "Takeda Yixiong, nobody, just like this, sent a telegram to the military department, saying that the commander opposite Wucun has been replaced, and his name is Takeda Yixiong." ”

In less than ten minutes, the signal soldier stood up again and said, "Report, the military headquarters ordered, the Wucun position is abandoned, give the Japanese army an opening, and when the Japanese army flees, the whole army will cover up, and other troops will also cooperate with us to cover up." ”

Xu Haidong couldn't believe his ears, snatched the telegram and looked at it carefully, after making sure of it, he touched his head, shook his head and called the phone and said, "Shan Degui, order your troops to withdraw slowly?" What the? Did your regimental commander go up and fight for bayonets? Just play the piano randomly, pull it down for me, just say what I said, let him retreat for me!! (To be continued.) )
