Chapter 277. Post-war aftermath
After killing Kengo Noda and Nobuaki Ohno, there was no gunfire on Commander Wu's position, after all, there were many people, and Commander Wu finally used more than 20,000 people, sacrificed 8,000 people, and killed more than 5,000 devils. ", I'm going to fight you with ten people, but less than two, and I'll kill you brutes." Commander Wu felt very relieved. Shunzi cleaned up the battlefield and walked over with Chen Qiming and his party, Chen Qiming took two thousand people, each carrying two or three devils' 38 big covers, and the entire army could all be replaced with devils' weapons, and there were many soldiers who packed up the devil's 92 heavy machine guns and mortars, and made a lot of money. "Hehe, Commander-in-Chief Jiang, do you want these weapons?" Chen Qiming said with a smile. "Not unusual." Jiang Qiang said with a smile.
"Haha." Chen Qimin and a group of National Revolutionary Army who had just won the battle laughed, this Jiang Qiang is really awesome, and he actually said that it is not uncommon for devils to have weapons. "Laugh at it, hurry back to Xian County, it is estimated that Commander Wu is in a hurry." After Jiang Qiang finished speaking, he took Shunzi and other nineteen special operations team leaders to sit on the tank and walked to the position in the direction of Xian County, Zhao Laoga's tank barrel had Noda Kengo's head hanging on it, and Jiang Qiang didn't bother to pay attention to him. At this time, he was not easy in his heart, although the 16th Division was eliminated, this is a problem, the 16th Division was destroyed, and the devils would build a 16th Division, the stubborn Jiang Qiang of the Japanese knew very well in his heart that this corps, known as the Kyoto A Division, would definitely find a way to fool the people.
Commander Wu was leading the soldiers to pack up the devil's weapons, and Chen Qiming asked people to send back more than a dozen field guns, plus the previous four field guns, how can I say that they are comparable to the devil's weapons, but there are not as many shells and bullets as the devils. Commander Wu saw Jiang Qiang coming in a tank, and immediately brought a group of division commanders and brigade commanders to greet him. Commander Wu, who had been worried before the war, was very relieved at this time, due to the lack of weapons, he wanted Shang Zhen to reinforce him, but as a result, repeated requests were fruitless, and Commander Wu himself was worried, and a more powerful guy came.
When Jiang Qiang saw them coming up, he jumped out of the tank, and then a group of people surrounded him, and there were many people who had never seen Jiang Qiang, and they all gathered around the periphery, and some people looked at it with their heads cocked. "Hey, Jiang Qiang, many of our soldiers haven't seen you before, and they all want to see you, what do you think should be done?" Commander Wu deliberately pretended to be very embarrassed and asked. "This, this is not simple, I taught them to dig foxholes, and dig more anti-artillery holes." Jiang Qiang said. "Haha." Commander Wu didn't expect this Jiang Qiang to be quite generous, Zhou Zheng said, they are all Chinese soldiers, and everyone is responsible for fighting devils, maybe this is the reason, Commander Wu doesn't want to ask much, he just thanks in his heart, he didn't ask much about where Jiang Qiang was going in the future.
Commander Wu didn't know that the history of this battle changed his future, and the real history of Commander Wu died in the fierce battle with the devil in September of that year. Next, Jiang Qiang and Commander Wu took the entire 67th Army to start arranging, and all the soldiers saw the legendary God of War like the director of the Tianjin Police Department, his eyes always had a bad smile, but if you look closely, they are clear and bright, like a hopeful sun. The morale was high, and it took half an hour to set up the defense line, Jiang Qiang glanced at the entire defense line and said to Commander Wu: "Commander Wu, this time the defense line and the devil can fight a few back and forth, but remember that you still can't fight with the devil, even if you stick to Xian County for a few more days, it may change a major historical event." ”
Although Commander Wu was skeptical when he heard this, he didn't know that Jiang Qiang was from outside, but judging from the specific situation analyzed by Jiang Qiang, this kind of thing was very likely to happen. "Since I, Wu, have chosen to be a soldier, I will defend the land and fight, and swear to fight the devil to the end, and I will die together." Commander Wu said. "Commander Wu, you don't know my operational principles, in fact, I don't agree with your operational thinking of ending up together, the devil is a small land, and it has been prepared for nearly a hundred years before it has such a majestic momentum, we might as well let the momentum, avoid its edge, fight it unprepared, fight it unprepared, fight it down, the devil will get worse and worse, China is so big, we must learn to deal with the devil."
Commander Wu listened, smiled and nodded, this method of fighting guerrilla warfare is the magic weapon of Yan'an, their regular army disdains to apply, earlier someone persuaded him to go to Taihang Mountain to fight guerrilla warfare with devils if he can't defeat the devils, but how can he, the commander of the 67th Army, go to the mountains to fight guerrillas. "By the way, Commander Wu, the tank I brought back is also given to you." Jiang Qiang said, after finishing speaking, he waved his hand at Shunzi and the others, and Shunzi and the others slowly drove the tank in front of the two people.
Commander Wu listened, but the smile on his face froze. "So, you're planning to leave." Commander Wu was a little reluctant, he had already received information that the devils in the direction of Texas had dared to go to Xian County, and there would be a battle here soon. "Hehe, Commander Wu, I was originally the commander-in-chief of the Asian People's Liberation Army, if I don't go back, then the whole army will not be messed up, okay, there will always be a banquet in the world, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, I hope we can still be friends." Jiang Qiang had already stretched out his hand as he spoke.
Commander Wu didn't say much, the character of a soldier, it was not his style to say more, he held Jiang Qiang's hand tightly, when the devil soldiers were in the city, the commander of the merchant army, who was a colleague, refused to rescue, which made him feel a little cold. "There will be a date later." Commander Wu said. "It's better not to become an enemy when there will be a period later." Jiang Qiang finally changed his tone, which made Commander Wu fall into contemplation, and this sentence made Commander Wu guess Jiang Qiang's true identity, Yan'an's.
Zhao Laoga very neatly untied the head of Kengo Noda on the tank, and held it in his hand, the blood was whirring and very infiltrating. "What are you doing with a dog's head, throw it away." Jiang Qiang is indeed ready to return to Yunwu Mountain, the number of troops has increased, he has to go back, at this time, he guessed that the south entrance should be over, the devil will soon break through to Xinkou, he has to establish a road from Taihang Mountain to Yunwu Mountain, "I want to hang the gate of Baoding City." Zhao Laoga said. Hang a fart. Junko took advantage of Zhao's inattention, snatched Kengo Noda's head, kicked it and flew out.
There were three sources of the news of the destruction of the 16th Division, one was sent by the Nanjing Government, the other was sent by Wang Hui of Yunwu Mountain to reporters from various countries, and there was also a telegram sent by the Yan'an Red Radio, and the radio frantically reported the news of Jiang Qiang and Commander Wu's elimination of the 16th Division of the Devils. "Yaga, immediately block the news, and not let our people know, this will make them lose confidence in our Imperial Japanese army." Shouichi Terauchi nervously commanded. "Hayi, we will immediately summon the reporters and the head of the secret service in Beiping, and ask them to act immediately and never disclose the slightest information." Said a soldier at the communications office.
"Also, you should immediately report the situation to the General Staff Headquarters of the Army in Tokyo, and remember, if you want to publicize Jiang Qiang's forces a little bigger, you can't say that nineteen people will destroy our 16th Division, which will make the entire Japanese Army lose face." Terauchi Shouichi actually cares more about his position, if he is known by the Tokyo Army Staff Headquarters, he, the commander of the North China Dispatch Army, can also take a break, but the 16th Division was destroyed, which is a fact. When the Nanjing government learned of the news, the chairman was very happy, but after half of the joy, he became depressed and immediately called Dai Li.
"How can I rest assured, now that Yan'an has made contact with Yan Laoxi and sent a telegram to Yan Laoxi, we have to find a way to let the Eighth Route Army take the lead, use the power of the Japanese devils to eliminate them, and die for the War of Resistance, and die a well-deserved death." The chairman said. Dai Li listened, nodded, and hurriedly went to arrange, for Jiang Qiang's question, he also had a headache, send a man, when he thought of Jiang Qiang's scoundrel, there were really few people who were his opponents, Jiang Qiang spread like a legend again, in the Chinese folk, in the ranks of devils, especially devils.
"General Nakajima Konno Go's jade was shattered, and the body became a meatloaf, and when our corpse collection team took it back, it took three hours for the medical staff to stitch it up, and the body was like a sack." "I heard that Chief of Staff Sasaki is also broken." "The whole jade of a division was shattered, and nearly 20,000 imperial soldiers were defeated by Jiang Qiang with nineteen people." The devil and a group of soldiers were discussing in private, with an inexplicable panic and despair on their faces, nineteen people defeated a division, which was not only terrifying, but even if Amaterasu came, it was estimated that it would not be possible.
"This Jiang Qiang, I heard that an army has been established to liberate the whole of Asia, and to establish a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere headed by China, so what should we Japanese do?" Some of the more desperate devil soldiers actually thought of Jiang Qiang's retreat to Japan in the future. "Baga, as a soldier of the Great Japanese Empire, you must not discuss Jiang Qiang in private, the Great Japanese Empire has sent Teng Jiangjun to reorganize the Sixteenth Division, I believe that the Sixteenth Army led by Teng Jiangjun will soon reach North China this time, and their main target will be Jiang Qiang." A captain of the 109th Division, who was preparing to attack Xian County, said.
"Yes, Jiang Qiang is not a big deal, the holy war of the Japanese Empire will be victorious, we have strengthened the research and development of sniper rifles according to Jiang Qiang's combat characteristics, and the Type 97 sniper rifle will soon be equipped with our army, at that time, we will also let the Chinese army taste the power of the sniper rifle with the Japanese Empire." The 109th Division and the 108th Division had been transferred to Xianxian, but after they arrived, they encountered the corpse collection team of the devils unexpectedly, and the whole unit was full of despair, and the morale was seriously reduced, so they had to order to build a position first, adjust and rest, and then attack Xianxian after their morale was restored.
What is even more nervous is the commander of the 109108th Division, Jiang Qiang is simply the killer of the division commander, it has only been less than a month, and a large number of officers have been sacrificed in the entire North China battlefield, and divisions like Kawagishi Bunzaburo and Nakajima Imano have also been wiped out. And their own intelligence also shows that Jiang Qiang likes to fight sneak attacks, makeup, and always surprises and unprepared, which is comparable to Yan'an's routines. "We have to be careful of Jiang Qiang's sneak attack." The devil and a group of officers, big and small, have suggested that this time they can't be wiped out like the 16th Division.
When it comes to Jiang Qiang, the devil's teeth itch from bottom to top, but he is so scared that his spine is cold, and there is a devil captain who has not yet started a war, but he was frightened by Jiang Qiang's legend, and he covered the quilt and snot. "Yaga, pull him out and kill him, it's like discrediting the faces of our Imperial Japanese soldiers." A wing commander of the 10th Division said. "Ah, don't shoot me, don't shoot me, I'm here to fight, I didn't die in vain, I heard that Kengo Noda's head has not been found until now." This devil is Kengo Noda's hometown, so he was scared to catch a cold. Pop, two gunshots rang out, the captain of the devil brigade was shot, and the big war came, and those who bewitched the hearts of the army were killed.
And Chinese folk rumors are like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, from Beiping and Tianjin, as well as Baoding, college students who are going to go south have gone north one after another, some went to Yan'an, some went to find Jiang Qiang, although no one knew where Jiang Qiang was, they still blindly flocked to the north. There was a war going on in the north, and these students had just fled from the north and flocked to Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang. "I want to find Jiang Qiang, I want to resist Japan and fight devils." Hundreds of university students marched in Shijiazhuang and Taiyuan, as if the devil's tanks and artillery were not outside the city. Students, there is no patriotic enthusiasm, but there is nowhere to put it, which makes Yan Laoxi very angry.
"What does this have to do with me, you go to Jiang Qiang, Jiang Qiang is not here with me, I am here and the Eighth Route Army are in a meeting, I want to arrange the Battle of Xinkou and the Battle of Taierzhuang, what do you ordinary stupid students do, you can fight with Jiang Qiang, Jiang Qiang is so powerful, how did the devil get in." Yan Laoxi was the king of Shanxi, and under normal circumstances, he did not want troops from other places to pass over to his territory. But at this time, Jiang Qiang came to Taiyuan with a group of people carrying guns, Jiang Qiang and several people hid the sniper rifles, and disguised themselves as ordinary people to mix in Taiyuan, Jiang Qiang went to Taiyuan for a purpose, he came to investigate Yan Xishan's arsenal.
Anyway, the war was not good, and in the end the military factory was given to the Japanese in vain, the arsenal was relatively large, the machinery was relatively complete, and there were steel and foundries, there were enough machines. "What a shame this thing is." Jiang Qiang leaned on the wall of the arsenal and looked at it clearly. "Commander-in-chief, how about we go back to the mountains and pull the team over, when the time comes, why don't we just take the guys from the arsenal away?" Shunzi and Zhang Feng, as well as Shunzi and others also felt a pity when they saw the scale of the arsenal, how good this thing is, if it is given to them, it will be of great use. In the evening, Jiang Qiang sent a telegram to General Tang Juwu, asking General Tang Juwu to order Yan Xishan to move the arsenal to a cave near Yuncheng. In the evening, Jiang Qiang went to find General Yan Xishan again.
Yan Xishan is the king of Shanxi, and he is deeply worried about the forces that have entered Shanxi, at this time there are the descendants of the Nanjing government army in Shanxi, as well as the Eighth Route Army in Yan'an, as well as the Japanese devils, and at this time there is an additional Jiang Qiang's forces, these forces are enemies for him, but in the face of the menacing devils, Yan Xishan has to compromise.
Warlord style and poor weapons, this battle was doomed to defeat from the beginning, most of the weapons of the Jin Sui army were made by the Taiyuan Arsenal, although the arsenal was large, but the understanding of the weapons determined that the Taiyuan Arsenal did not produce any decent weapons, and Yan Laoxi was not willing to take them out for Yan'an to use.
In principle, Jiang Qiang didn't want to go to any so-called military meeting, but after thinking about it, since he wanted someone's arsenal, it was better to go there, so after dinner, Jiang Qiang borrowed the car of Wang Tianfu, the director of the arsenal, and went to Yan Xishan's headquarters, Jiang Qiang didn't expect to meet General Wei and General Tang here, and even met a representative of the Eighth Route Army. Jiang Qiang followed Staff Officer Wang into the conference room, there was a large combat sand table in the conference room, and there were tables on both sides of the sand table. "Everyone stop, everyone stop, this is the legendary anti-Japanese hero, Jiang Qiang, Jiang Commander-in-chief."
"Comrade Jiang Qiang, we finally met." Yan Xishan just introduced Jiang Qiang to the representative of the Eighth Route Army, and the representative of the Eighth Route Army couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, it didn't take long for Xia Qing to send over a batch of weapons, which were captured by Jiang Qiang, in addition, Jiang Qiang also sent them a lot of devil prisoners, and the troops had sufficient translators for a while, and the representatives of the Eighth Route Army were of course excited. "You know each other." Yan Laoxi asked vigilantly when he saw it, what he was most worried about was that this Jiang Qiang was an undercover agent sent to the arsenal by Yan'an. "It's all a family, there's something you don't know." Jiang Qiang laughed, a pun.
"Jiang Qiang, aren't you from the Asian People's Liberation Army, are you in league with the Eighth Route Army?" Yan Xishan held back the anger in his heart and said. "Chief Yan, now we are fighting together against Japan and fighting little Japanese, we are all a family, what do you mean by a gang? Moreover, isn't the Eighth Route Army your revolutionary 18th Army? And it is under your command, and our Asian People's Liberation Army is not under your command. "Haha." Yan Xishan laughed dryly, and was about to bring Jiang Qiang to General Wei, but saw that General Wei had already stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Qiang's hand and said loudly: "Little brother Jiang Qiang, we met again, I didn't expect that in just ten days, we would meet in Taiyuan." ”
"The reason why we met in Taiyuan was just that the little devils captured Zhangjiakou and Nankou, and now Baoding and Cangzhou have fallen into the hands of the enemy." Jiang Qiang held General Wei's hand and said heavily. "Ah, you have known each other for a long time, and the relationship is the last one I Yan Xishan knew." When Yan Xishan heard that Jiang Qiang's words were wrong, he hurriedly snorted and said. "Chief Yan, what does it matter if you know you or not? Fighting devils is what we should do, I don't know if we get together and play it, since everyone is here, let's have a meeting. After Jiang Qiang finished speaking, Yan Xishan was stunned, he should have said this, how could Jiang Qiang say it first? Well said, well said. Yan Xishan thought for a while, said loudly, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and walked to the front of the sand table and started the meeting.
Jiang Qiang didn't have to think about it, this Yan Xishan was in such a hurry to gather all the people over, and he must discuss his military plan plan, that is, the first battle of Xinkou and the battle plan of Datong, and the entire army was still waiting for reinforcements in turn, resulting in one place being breached, and another place became a lonely battle. "Our battle plan is to contain the Japanese army from the high points in the mountains, as long as the two commanding heights of Yanggao and Tianzhen can be held, then the Battle of Datong can be launched, of which the Guangling, Hunyuan, and Shahe areas are guarded by General Yang's Sixth Army; General Wei guarded the west of Pingxingguan; The Seventh Army was responsible for Yanggao and Tianzhen ......"
Staff Officer Wang took a bamboo pole and pointed at the sand table, and told everyone all the defenses and deployments under the instruction of Yan Xishan, and asked everyone to give their opinions. But at this time, there was a snoring sound at the scene, and Jiang Qiang fell asleep sitting on a chair.
It's not Yan Xishan who saw it alone, everyone saw it, in addition to a few generals, there were also several chiefs of staff and group army commanders who saw it, one by one they couldn't help but laugh, their cheeks were like two big eggs stuffed, this bastard thing turned out to be the anti-Japanese hero who destroyed the two divisions of the devil, and they didn't believe it when they were killed, but the facts were in front of them. "Ahem." Yan Xishan coughed loudly twice, Jiang Qiang opened one eye and looked around, like a reconnaissance, and found that there was no situation, and the other eye also opened. "Jiang Qiang, you bastard, tell me, what do you think, you stand up and talk about it." A military meeting that was originally very serious was ignored by Jiang Qiang, and it was funny, which made Yan Xishan say a little angrily.
"Chief Yan, don't be angry, I'll tell you my opinion first." The Eighth Route Army had heard more or less of this Jiang Qiang's story, Xia Qing's people often sent prisoners over there, and often told Jiang Qiang's jokes, and the representatives of the Eighth Route Army had long been familiar with the style of this scoundrel, so they stood up first, which was equivalent to relieving Jiang Qiang. "Chief Yan, I think the defense is too rigid, now, the enemy is strong and I am weak, I am afraid that I will not be able to fight hard, our army should take the initiative, attack from the side, or set up an ambush to fight the devils, our Eighth Route Army is ordered to cooperate at any time." The representative of the Eighth Route Army said.
When Yan Xishan heard this, his face was quite displeased, but he still praised it: "The representative of the Eighth Route Army said well, everyone applauds." Jiang Qiang knew that this Yan Laoxi was an old Jianghu, and what he said was good, but he didn't do it, as a result, the devil first hit Yanggao, and then Tianzhen, and the entire Datong Battle was declared bankrupt before it was implemented, but Jiang Qiang didn't want to participate in this big battle, "Okay, applause." When everyone's applause was over, Jiang Qiang shouted hello like a neurotic, and then applauded, and he was alone on the scene.
"That Jiang Qiang, tell me how to fight this battle." Yan Laoxi's performance towards Jiang Qiang today was really angry, but in front of so many people, he just didn't have a seizure. "Chief Yan, I agree with the representatives of the Eighth Route Army, in the entire North China and the whole country, there is no ace army to fight against Japan, so we should take the initiative to find fighters, attack the devils on the flank, and eliminate the devils in the guerrilla warfare movement war." Jiang Qiang said. Jiang Qiang knew very well in his heart that no matter what everyone said, Yan Laoxi would not listen to him, since he couldn't change these warlords, he had to change himself.
