After more than an hour of artillery battle, 20 men sweated and 40 shells, in exchange for the ammunition consumption of an entire artillery brigade of devils.

When the annoyed and angry devil finished shooting a cannonball, he suddenly realized that he had fallen for the eighth road! On the so-called positions where shells are fired back and forth on the opposite hill, there is actually a cannon playing with them!

And in this more than an hour, more than 3,000 villagers withdrew from the encirclement from the canyon.

The dejected artillerymen of the 4th Brigade could only wait for the Air Force to replenish ammunition, and the Logistics Department of the Japanese Army, which had always attached importance to the supply of supplies to the front-line combat units, actually refused after receiving a request for additional ammunition!

There is only one reason, there are no planes to send to their garrison troops on the northern front, are they depressed? It was not that the Logistics Department and the Air Force were slamming the door and looking down on the Fourth Brigade, but that there was only one Army Aviation Brigade left in the entire North China Front, and most of the Army Aviation Corps, which was originally attached to the North China Front, had already moved to Xuzhou and secretly went south.

After the start of the second phase of the sweeping operation, the Japanese pilots of this group were exhausted by their high-intensity work, and they had already tossed people and planes to the point that they could not bear it.

The bombers who came in the morning were still barely here, the bomb magazines were not full, and the two dive bombers swept two back and forth and flew away, and the fear of shooting in the air was one thing, but in fact, the main thing was fatigue, and the pilots were really unwilling to stay in the war zone for too long, and they could not bear it psychologically and physically.

There were no shells, the supply was still far away, the devil artillery in Nanmazhuang was completely stopped, and the artillery battle was over. Yang Bangzi observed the meeting. I guess the devil is out of shells. Hurriedly sent someone to report to Director Cheng, the director was overjoyed, and praised Yang for being reliable!

Immediately ordered to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the sub-district quickly organized the evacuation of the villagers. Seeing the intermittent transfer of operations blocked by bombing and shelling, and starting in a majestic manner, Yang Bangzi was not only proud, but also strange in his heart, this devil is a little abnormal today.

It is said that the breakout battle started at two o'clock in the night. Even if there were brother troops attacking the encirclement of the devils everywhere to help contain the attention of the devils, but around this breakthrough, there were three large armies of devils, and there were two or three thousand people in the villages in the north, and there were at least two or more than two thousand field troops in the south and southeast.

But the little devil started from two o'clock to noon, 10 hours, except for a few planes and artillery fire on the ground, that is, the Jiema Stone side was digging fortifications under the mountain or something. Neither organized a decent counteroffensive. There is also no old routine of attacking from multiple ways with small units of troops that devils are used to.

What's wrong with that, devil? Did you deliberately let us go? Can't! The reconnaissance plane in the sky should have seen it very clearly, and it could judge the route of our retreat. The artillery fire on the ground is blocked, how can it be deliberately let go?

Yang Bangzi was a little puzzled, and he was mentally prepared to fight with the devil earlier, and it would be covered with a question mark!

It's okay to say it's a coincidence, it's okay to say that it's a big luck, it's really happened anyway! Whether it's a devil or an eight-way, I can't say the most convincing reason after that.

There is nothing special in the Japanese army's combat logs and telegrams, which can explain why the Japanese troops on the three routes have not launched any decent ground attacks, only the search team sent by the 163rd Wing, after being defeated by the cadre combat team of the division, sent a telegram to the wing headquarters, saying that it was blocked by the main force of the communist army and had retreated and held on.

The telegram was crushed in a mountain of telegrams, and it did not attract anyone's attention at all.

Looking through the history of our Eighth Route Army, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region was surrounded by nearly 10,000 people in Leibao, and some documents also mention that more than 20,000 ordinary people and local cadres were besieged at the same time, but later it was said that Commander Nie withdrew westward with 7,000 people from the military region organs, and no one mentioned where the more than 20,000 fellow villagers went.

Looking at the war history of the Japanese army, many of the participating troops recorded that they were surrounded by the Eighth Route and broke through from the west, and after entering and occupying the enemy's Leibao and other places, the search and suppression were fruitless, and it was even recorded that they did not see the common people for many days, and they could not even drink saliva (the wells were destroyed), and the Japanese army was accustomed to recording the killing of the people as military merits, but this encirclement and suppression, there is little record of how many Chinese people were arrested.

That's weird! Where did the more than 20,000 people go? Is it impossible to go to heaven and earth? Is it just a coincidence that neither the enemy nor the enemy has explained this in military history?

There can be no real coincidence in history! This was deliberately concealed, or rather deleted! But history is history, and after stripping away the disguise that has been stamped on the truth and dispelling the fog, the clues will eventually be revealed.

For example, in the memoirs of some veteran cadres and veteran soldiers of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, we can still see that in the autumn of 1941, the anti-sweeping operation was carried out in the autumn of 1941, and there were only a few words about breaking out from Xiangshang, northeast of Leibao, which was exactly two opposite directions to the military region's organs breaking out from the southwest.

Personally, I believe that the military region's organs chose to break away from the masses at this time, turn off the radio station and secretly break through in the southwest direction, and let the villagers break through from the northeast, not unintentionally, but intentionally; the situation at that time, if they were not separated, they would have to be surrounded and killed by more than 30,000 devils, and no one would be able to break through, and they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

Under such circumstances, the separation of the troops from the masses is, after all, contrary to the principle that our party has always upheld that the masses come before the army, and although this is a step in Commander Nie's serial plan, it is not good to say, so it cannot be mentioned in military history and in the memoirs of the generals.

At that time, the Japanese army was in a state of confusion on the entire front, almost all the flanks and rear of the participating troops were attacked, the lines of communication and supply were disrupted, and the various departments could not coordinate the operation, but instead messed up their positions, which was a very shameful thing, because the Japanese army had just announced the news of the elimination of the Eighth Route Military Region.

After the eight-way attacks were stopped at sunrise, all the Japanese troops participating in the battle did not receive a unified combat order, because the eight-way radio station in Leibaona was still turned on at intervals, the destroyed lines of communication and supply had not yet been restored, and among the hundreds of places where battles had taken place, the battles at Jiemashi and Chai Philing had not yet been taken seriously.

Although the air force reconnaissance report said that many enemy troops were active in this area, Ningci of Kegang Village was still anxiously dealing with the chaotic situation in the whole of North China at this time, and did not care about the affairs in this remote area at the intersection of Taihang Mountain and Langya Mountain.

When everything falls out and it is known that more than 20,000 people have broken out from here, who will bear the responsibility? Is it dealt with as dereliction of duty or cowardice? Was it the responsibility of the 4th Independent Mixed Brigade, or was it the mistake of the 110th and 163rd Wings of the 139th Division? Can't be held accountable! Because the reports of your subordinates have been submitted to you, you Gangmura University has not attracted attention, can you deal with yourself? No!

In this way, the northeast corner was opened by the Eighth Road, and the matter of more than 20,000 people was highlighted, how could it be written in the glorious military history? Isn't this a slap in the mouth? What's more, the war reports and military history of the Japanese army have always been very watery!

For example, Pingxingguan was obviously killed more than 100 cars and carts, and more than 1,000 people were shattered, but dozens of people were killed in the war report, but the report written by the person in charge of collecting the corpse would not be blindly reported, and the report on attrition could not be written blindly.

The battle report of the 4th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade in Nanmazhuang said that it would repel the attack of the small group of 8 Roads, and the memo submitted by the Weishenme Brigade Headquarters at the same time should read: "More than 1,000 rounds of artillery shells were consumed, and more than 100,000 rounds of machine rifle ammunition were consumed." "Do you need so much ammunition to greet you? These consumed ammunition are enough to fight a large-scale offensive campaign!

The 110th Division can also find many contradictions in various documents, the 163rd Wing said that it repelled the siege of multiple roads and eight roads, but it also said that the search team sent out encountered stubborn resistance in the area of Damao Mountain.

The 139th Wing also reported fighting with the Eighth Route for a day and a night, defeating a number of Eighth Route troops.

Look at the location of the battle on the map as these three devils say, and you can understand it all! They are all in the west and southwest of Damao Mountain, which is exactly the junction of the defense areas of the three Japanese troops! If it's really like what they say, they are all about repelling and defeating small groups of eight roads, and they still need thousands of shells, more than 100,000 rounds of ammunition, and thousands of people are busy?

That's a lie! Deliberately erase the disgraceful things lightly! Why? Quite simply, isn't it a great shame for the Imperial Army that thousands of regular Japanese troops let more than 20,000 ordinary people run out of the carefully constructed encirclement! Can this be written in military history?

So there are no coincidences in history! If you look dialectically, you will find that in the fog, clear clues point to the truth!

The truth is that the devils misjudged, passed the buck to each other, and acted slowly, and Commander Nie left a radio station to attract the devils on this side, and multiple external attacks disrupted the deployment of the devils, covering the retreating troops of the villagers.

This is the truth that the villagers can safely withdraw from the encirclement, Commander Nie did not abandon the villagers, but figured out the psychology of the devil, and took a risky move, to be honest, if it wasn't for Yang Bangzi to lead the team and the devil around, replaced by a weak person, if you can't take and keep this transfer channel, let alone Commander Nie, our party has to bear this crime of ignoring the people.

It was impossible for these Yang sticks to know at that time, he would be standing on the mountain beam and wondering, why didn't the devil with such a strong sense of revenge come to take his mountain.

How did he know that the various radio stations and telephones of this devil would be more lively than being attacked at night! At night, the meeting was all about reporting the battle situation and ordering reinforcements, which would be all about, mutual accusations, and mutual blame, and the one-third of an acre of land guarded by his Yang stick became a land that grandma didn't love and uncle didn't love!

At two o'clock in the afternoon, a fellow villager in Zuihou also passed through the mouth of the canyon smoothly, and Director Cheng sent someone to tell Yang Bangzi that he could evacuate after holding on for two more hours, and the sub-district authorities had begun to transfer!
