Chapter 183: Bloody Battle of Teng County (2)
"Huh? Why is there no imperial army flag in the head of Tengxian County? And when we arrived, why didn't they go out of the city to greet us? "The leader of a devil cavalry squadron who led the team suddenly stopped his horse in surprise when he came to the fortifications less than three hundred meters away from the city wall and less than two hundred meters away from the dragon's tooth task force outside the city.
At this moment, Qiao Youhua took the lead in standing up from the trench with a light machine gun in his arms, and said sharply: "Brothers, fire!" Don't let go of the little devils! ”
Before the words fell, the light machine gun in his hand let out a deafening roar.
Hundreds of officers and soldiers of the Dragon's Tooth stood up one after another, and all kinds of light and heavy weapons opened fire one after another.
"Tutu Tu Tu ...... Da Da Da ...... A large number ......of bullets formed a dense network of firepower, crisscrossing and criss-crossing, heading towards the devil cavalry.
"Yaga! There is an ambush! The leader of the devil squadron was taken aback, and quickly turned his horse's head to escape, but how could his speed be comparable to the speed of bullets.
"Puff puff...... A burst of bullets penetrating into the flesh sounded, and the leader of the devil cavalry squadron bore the brunt, and even the men and horses were beaten into a hornet's nest.
The other surrounding devil soldiers were also killed.
The wailing of the war horses and the screams of the devil soldiers were endless.
"Rush forward, don't let go of a little Japan!" Qiao Youhua shouted loudly and rushed out with a light machine gun.
Hundreds of dragon tooth officers and soldiers jumped up one after another, charging towards the devil cavalry.
More than 90 devil cavalry fell in the first round of fierce fire from the Dragon's Tooth Task Force, and the rest had just turned their horses' heads around before they could accelerate their horses.
They were swept out of the trenches, and the officers and soldiers of the dragon's teeth fell off their horses with a dense rain of bullets, and the whole battle took less than ten minutes.
The last cavalry of the Seko detachment was wiped out, and the Dragon's Tooth Task Force only consumed some ammunition, and not even a single soldier was injured.
"Quickly clean up the battlefield, dispose of the corpses of devils and war horses, and the horse meat can be collected as military food, which is a big supplement! It shouldn't be long before the follow-up troops of the devils arrive, arrange the front of the position as a minefield, and give a meeting gift to the main force of the Seko detachment! Qiao Youhua stood on the side of the battlefield, carrying a light machine gun in one hand and smoking a cigarette in the other.
A group of dragon tooth officers and soldiers happily responded and began to clean up the battlefield.
On the highway from Zaozhuang to Tengxian County, the Seya detachment sat in the passenger seat of a military truck, always feeling a little restless, as if something was going to happen.
He stretched out his leg and took out a bottle of sake, poured it violently, and said to the driver next to him, "Hurry up!" ”
He tried his best to rush back to Teng County with his troops, as long as he passed Teng County, he would be safe.
"Hay." The devil driver nodded sharply in response, and then increased the throttle.
…………
Xuzhou City, Fifth Theater Command.
"General, according to the report of the 31st Division, they have captured Fengcheng and are advancing towards Zaozhuang, and their forward reconnaissance troops have approached the periphery of Zaozhuang, but they have not met with Japanese resistance." An operational staff officer held a telegram and reported to Li Zongren.
Li Zongren stretched out his hand to take the message, glanced at it, and handed it to Bai Chongxi on the side.
Bai Chongxi looked at it, pondered for a moment, and suddenly his face changed: "It's not good, the Seya detachment should have fled, Brother Delin, please quickly order the 31st Division and the 20th Army Corps to advance towards Zaozhuang at full speed, and strive to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army in the area between Zaozhuang and Tengxian." ”
"Good!" Li Zongren also sensed the urgency of time, immediately nodded, and did as he was instructed by the combat staff officer.
"Now I'm really worried about Qiao Youhua's hundreds of dragon teeth, whether they can stop the Seya detachment who are eager to flee for their lives!" After the operational staff officer left, Li Zongren said worriedly, if Qiao Youhua couldn't stop the Seya detachment, then the entire encirclement and annihilation battle plan would be in vain.
Bai Chongxi's face was calm, and only a little worry appeared between his eyebrows: "I'm not worried that Qiao Youhua won't be able to stop the Seya detachment, but I'm worried that my main attack force will be able to encircle and annihilate the Seya detachment in the shortest possible time."
Because, when the Seya detachment was cut off from the retreat and there were pursuing troops behind, it was impossible to send too many troops to attack Tengxian County, where the Dragon's Tooth Task Force was stationed, but it was very likely to build fortifications on the spot and wait for reinforcements!
And once it was learned that the Seya detachment was trapped between Teng County, the Nagase detachment in the area of Jiaxiang and Jining was likely to draw reinforcements, and the Fifth Division in Linyi might also advance westward for reinforcements.
Therefore, the key to this battle is to see whether our besieging troops can eliminate the 4,000 remnants of the Seya detachment in the shortest possible time! To be precise, it depends on whether he Tang Enbo contributes or not! ”
Li Zongren nodded, lost in thought, and didn't know what to think about anymore.
Although Tang Enbo's department was nominally subordinate to the Fifth Theater of Operations, it was actually under the direct jurisdiction of the Military Commission headed by Chairman Chiang, and Li Zongren understood that he could not command the elite of the Central Army at all, so whether or not he could encircle and annihilate the Seya Detachment this time was not in the hands of his theater commander's department, but in the hands of Tang Enbo.
Will the battle really develop like this, Qiao Youhua is looking forward to it.
…………
At ten o'clock in the morning of the same day, after a two-hour march, the infantry of the Seya detachment finally arrived south of Fuji County.
The old devil Nagase Tani Kei personally arrived with the forward brigade in a military truck, and he wanted to enter Teng County to rest as much as possible, and if necessary, withdraw from Teng County to Zou Cheng and Jining.
However, while advancing, the thousands of infantry of the forward brigade suddenly stopped, and the military trucks caught in the crowd of infantry were forced to stop.
"Yaga! What happened? "Nagase Tani Kai was confused.
At this time, a Japanese soldier came to the car with a saber on his shoulder and saluted him.
Without waiting for Nakasa to speak, Kei Nagase asked, "What kind of land do you work?" Why stop moving forward? ”
The Japanese army Nakasa pressed the awe in his heart for the very short-tempered Nagase Tani Kai, and said: "General, if you find that something is wrong with the situation, you can get out of the car and take a look." ”
"Nani? What's wrong? Confused, he pushed the door and got out of the car, walked to a small mound on the side of the road, and held up his binoculars.
The Japanese army Zhongzuo said on the side: "General, the south gate of Tengxian County is closed, and there is no imperial army standing guard at the head of the city, not even a flag." It stands to reason that the cavalry squadron should have arrived a long time ago, but the imperial army left behind did not even have a single one to greet the general, which seems to be out of order! ”
Nagase Kai held up the binoculars and observed, and found that the truth was indeed as Nakasa said next to him, the situation in Fuji Prefecture was a little weird, and he forcibly suppressed the increasingly strong sense of uneasiness in his heart, and said to Nakasa: "Send a team to move forward tentatively!" See what the hell is going on. ”
"Hay!" The devil Nakasa suddenly bowed his head, and immediately turned around with his saber on his shoulder and led the order to leave.
