Yoshio Shinozuka, commander of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, gave the order to march into Tai'an. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At the same time, the commander of the Japanese 12th Army, Lieutenant General Tada Toshi, also urgently ordered the transfer of a brigade from Jinan to rush to the aid of Tai'an.
"We must ensure the right to occupy Tai'an City, otherwise the face of our Japanese Imperial Army in Shandong will be completely lost!"
Once Tai'an City, a prefecture-level city in Shandong, is lost, the consequences will be something that the Japanese army departments are unwilling to bear and cannot bear.
The final result was that even the Japanese army base camp, including Emperor Hirohito, who was a little devil, was bound to be furious.
Sugiyama Yuan, commander of the Japanese North China Front, said angrily: "Baga, it's the leading guerrilla again, and it's that Ouyang again, this time we must not let their tricks succeed, we must completely annihilate them!" ”

In addition to the results of the first battle in Tai'an, in addition to the Japanese army being informed of it for the first time, even the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountain also got the news, and everyone's faces showed great excitement.
"I can't think of it, I can't think of it!"
"The leading guerrillas have made another miraculous feat this time!"
"Now it's up to them to dare to take Tai'an City before the Japanese reinforcements arrive in Tai'an!"
"Yes, as long as they can hold on to Tai'an City for more than two days, then the situation in the entire Shandong will be completely turned upside down!"
"That's right!"
"Maybe the Japanese army's sweep in Shandong can end ahead of schedule because of this battle!"
Hearing the words of the audience, Mr. Peng, the deputy commander-in-chief, was also smiling at the moment, and he couldn't close his mouth at the moment, one bite at a time.
"Hey~~~~!"
Suddenly, just when everyone was happy, the chief of staff of Zuo Quan, who did not speak, let out a long sigh.
"Chief of Staff, shouldn't we celebrate this?" A commander and fighter of the Eighth Route Army asked.
Another person also followed suit: "Seeing that the sweep of the Japanese army in Shandong is about to be destroyed, we must be happy." ”
Hearing this, Zuo Quan shook his head with a wry smile, and sighed: "You are too happy too early, the premise of smashing the sweep of the Japanese army in Shandong is that Tai'an City must be taken!"
The area around Tai'an is already mountainous, the terrain is complex, and Tai'an City is built according to the mountain, it is a fortified city with extremely strong city defense, it can be said that it is impossible to open a single man, just by virtue of Ouyang and Chu Yunfei, they want to take Tai'an City before dawn, but it is extremely difficult! ”
"This, this~~~!"
At the moment, many people present were instantly dumbfounded.
If you can't beat Tai'an City, everything is blind!
For a time, the battle of Tai'an City touched the hearts of the entire North China!
This is related to the Japanese army's sweep in Shandong, and whether it can continue the key battle!
~~~~~
April 29, 1939, around 3:40 a.m.
Chu Yunfei's independent brigade, because it had more cars, rushed to Tai'an City one step ahead of Ouyang's leading guerrillas, and attacked it on the spot!
He attacked for nearly 30 minutes in a row, and all means were used.
However, the more than 4,000 national officers and soldiers present still failed to capture Tai'an City.
In other words, he didn't even touch the edge of the city wall, and he was repelled by the little devils!
Tai'an City, after all, is the capital of a prefecture-level city, and it is a giant city with high walls and strong walls.
Although the Japanese officers and soldiers in the city were less than 1,000 combined, the weapons they were equipped with were extremely sophisticated, and the number of light and heavy machine guns erected on the city tower was even more terrifying.
Chu Yunfei's troops tried their best, but there was nothing they could do.
"Damn it!"
Chu Yunfei continuously pounded the table in front of him, and said fiercely: "Tai'an City is all in front of us, but we can't do anything!"
Our army has been shelling continuously for a long time, and we have suffered hundreds of casualties without even touching the side of the little devil. ”
At this moment, Chu Yunfei, who has always been unfazed, is really anxious!
Although the main force of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army was temporarily defeated, it could not take Tai'an City, everything was in vain!
When the main force of the Japanese army returned to help, it was only possible to flee for their lives in embarrassment.
If he got this result, how could Chu Yunfei be willing?
The officers and soldiers of the country present were also full of sadness.
"The city defense of Tai'an City is really too hard, it can be a hard bone!"
"It's already four o'clock in the morning, and when the morning dawns, the Japanese planes will arrive, and then we won't have to wait for the little devil's reinforcements to arrive, and we will be driven out of the Tai'an territory!"
"Yes, the time we have is only 1 hour at most, but in the face of the city defense of Tai'an City, even if we are given another half a day, we will definitely not be able to take it!"
Siege warfare is the most difficult to fight!
This is true both in ancient times and in the era of the Anti-Japanese War.
After all, the walls were too hard, and the speed of the Japanese army's movements, and the level of their stubborn resistance, far exceeded the budget.
But even though the current situation has reached an imminent moment, all the officers of the national army present have not given up hope.
There is only one belief in everyone's mind!
- Take Taean City!
Immediately, Chu Yunfei once again issued a new offensive order, ordering the artillery troops to continue firing!
"If you run out of our army's shells, I don't believe that you won't be able to take Tai'an City!"
"Yes, Brigade!"
"Open fire~~~!"
In an instant, the city defense of Tai'an City completely turned into a sea of fire, and there were constantly screams of Japanese officers and soldiers.
"Well done, keep fighting!" Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice.
At this time, something called hope rippled in the hearts of everyone!
"Fall down!"
"Walls, fall!"
~~~~~~
However, Chu Yunfei's troops bombarded again for 20 minutes, but they still failed to break the city defense of Tai'an City.
Taean Castle is so strong!
And all the shells of the independent brigade were gone.
For a while, Chu Yunfei was desperate.
The spirit of the more than 4,000 national soldiers present was also lost.
Negative emotions such as disappointment, unwillingness, and anger spread like a virus among the fighters.
"Is it true that we can't take Tai'an City?"
Many people can't help but ask themselves.
All means were used;
The shells were all gone;
But this Tai'an City still stands, as if it is mocking everyone's incompetence again!
On the other hand, although the Japanese troops on the upper floor of the city suffered heavy casualties in the artillery fire, they laughed loudly one by one at the moment.
Aftermath!
"Hahaha!"
The Japanese commander wiped the blood and muddy water from his face, and laughed wildly: "Stupid Chinese people, how can they break through the city defense of our Tai'an City?" ”
A Japanese officer on the side echoed: "Your Excellency the commander is right, even the main artillery wing of our division and regiment has not had half a day, and it is definitely difficult to break through the city defense of Tai'an City, not to mention the poorly equipped Chinese army!" ”
At this moment, it was close to 5 o'clock in the morning, and the eastern sky was already fish-white.
It's almost dawn!
As soon as dawn, the Japanese planes will be dispatched to bomb Chu Yunfei's troops with precision!
When the time comes, everything will come to an end.
Dust to dust, dust to dust.
"Report ~~~~!"
At this moment, a communications soldier quickly ran into Chu Yunfei's command post.
"Brigade seat, the main force of the leading guerrillas has arrived!"
Hearing this, the officers of the national army present were still holding their heads together and were discouraged.
After more than an hour of onslaught, they completely knocked out their sharpness.
The leading guerrillas are coming?
It's coming, it's coming!
We can't defeat Tai'an City, so what can their small Eighth Route Army guerrillas do?
Will they be able to take Taean City?
This is the voice of many people.
