Chapter 1318 Chapter 1327, Sun Dongling, Lao Pang

Author: No one left alive

The flag of the Wang Puppet Government is a triangle added above the blue sky and white sun flag, with the words "peaceful founding of the country", "peaceful anti-communist" and "peaceful anti-communist founding" written on it.

The Peaceful National Founding Army is the Wang Puppet Army that was recruited by the Wang Puppet Government. They are the Wang Puppet Army under the banner of saving the country through curves. Well, there are several types of puppet armies. The ones encountered in the country are Manchu Puppet, Wang Puppet, etc.

.

But speaking of Wang Puppet, there are two more famous missions. In April this year, with a very disgraceful image, they were recorded in the history books of the Anti-Japanese War.

Why does the headquarters know the Japs' action plan and the general direction of their movements? In addition to the excellent results of our intelligence work, it is also related to the Japs' actions in April.

In April, when the Japanese mobilized troops to attack Beiyue District, they were already mobilizing troops to march on Taihang District.

Taihang District is not a small place. After all, the Taihang Mountains stretch for more than 400 kilometers, which is very large. The general distribution range of Taihang District is south of the Zhengtai Line, all the way to the large area where northern Henan, southern Hebei, and central Hebei meet.

In April, the Japs launched an attack on Lin County.

Here in Lin County, there is a new Fifth Army of the Central Army stationed at this time. It is one rank higher than the new Fourth Army, but it belongs to the Central Army. However, the leader of this army is the famous Dongling Bandit.

Sun Dongling. So, on April 23, the little devils surrounded Sun Dongling's troops.

Did Sun Dongling resist the Japanese? There are different opinions, but he did fight against the Japanese. For example, in 1938, he stayed in Shexian County, fought a battle with the Japanese, and then withdrew after losing, and also cheated the Sichuan army.

But in the days that followed, he started to play the role of a wallflower. He had no soldiers in his hand, so he went to seek refuge with Bald Chiang Kai-shek, and got a designation of the newly-organized Fifth Army, under Pang Bingxun. And during this period

During that time, there were three guest houses in his residence. One was for the generals who wanted to eat preserved fruits, the other was for the Japanese Japs, and the last one was for the Eighth Route Army.

On this day, the little devils surrounded his team. Sun Dongling's real name broke out, and he surrendered directly, turning into a puppet army. The little devils were worried that they didn't have enough troops, and suddenly there was an extra army of puppets.

The army was naturally very happy and incorporated this team.

In order to show his loyalty, as soon as Sun Dongling surrendered, he decisively betrayed his immediate boss, Lao Pang, the commander of the 24th Group Army.

Lao Pang also fought to the death with the Japanese during the Battle of Taierzhuang! However, in the following years, in addition to passively resisting Japan, he actively created friction with the Eighth Route Army.

Just after the Japanese incorporated the newly formed Fifth Army, the Japanese continued to attack Lao Pang's troops. A fierce battle broke out in the Lingchuan area, which dispersed Lao Pang's troops and made Lao Pang the bare commander. Later, Lao Pang led

The son and a few guards hid in the Batu Caves in Fenghuang Mountain with the help of the common people. During this period, a common person brought them water and food in the name of herding sheep.

At this time, Sun Dongling decisively told the Japanese the news, and sent his secretary to follow the Japanese to negotiate with Lao Pang. In the end, Lao Pang also surrendered and became a puppet army.

Isn't this very dramatic? At first, Lao Pang was very vigorous in fighting the Japanese. But later he discovered that these miscellaneous troops of his were often sent to the front as cannon fodder by Bald Chiang, so his heart became cold. Then, in

Under the influence of the general trend, he stood in a position of passive resistance to Japan and active anti-communism. Now, he has become the temporary commander-in-chief of the 24th Group Army of the puppet army (the designation has not been changed).

As an aside, in the late period of the Anti-Japanese War, many puppet troops were transformed into troops of the Central Army. They really "saved the country through curves". After all, we, the hundreds of thousands of puppet troops, were fed by the Japanese.

Yes, the Japanese food, military pay and supplies have been consumed...

The Japs originally had more than 20,000 troops, but now that there are so many more puppet troops, the troops have become stronger for a while. However, the Japs cannot trust the newly surrendered puppet troops, so they arranged for them to be trained in Xinxiang.

. And at this time, the official attack was launched towards Taihang District.

However, what no one expected was that the first place to fight was the defense area of ​​the Eighth Detachment and the newly established 6th Division. This 6th Division was located in the areas of Wu'an North, Shahe, Xingdong, and Xingxi. The troops

They are the 385th Brigade directly under the brigade headquarters and the 13th Regiment that have been disbanded. The brigade headquarters organization, the 769th Regiment, and the 13th Regiment have been divided into three divisions.

However, in order to strengthen the defensive capabilities of the north of the Ninth Detachment, the 769th Regiment was placed in the area of ​​Sucheng and Qinquan Town to help defend the north and train troops at the same time.

According to the direction of the Japanese attack, the 6th division and the defense area of ​​the eight detachments behind it happened to be the attack direction of the four brigades of the Japanese independent third brigade.

On the 6th, at a hilltop position to the west of Shahe River, the soldiers of the 13th Regiment stood ready. Seeing a Japanese brigade that was unable to move forward slowly approaching, they all clenched the guns in their hands in unison.

"Don't be nervous, especially you squad leaders and cadres, you are all optimistic about the comrades around you. Aren't they just the Japs? Let's show off the energy we used to harass the Japs strongholds in the past few days!" On the position, the battalion commander of the third battalion looked at

Looking at the nervous and trembling recruits around him, he shouted to everyone.

"Don't worry, battalion commander, we are all watching! Comrades, we have all fought with the Japanese before, so be nervous! Watch, the little Japanese have stopped. The next step is either shelling or machine gun fire.

Cover the small unit and charge towards us!" Not far from the battalion headquarters, the veteran squad leader said to the recruits with great experience: "The little devil only has these two moves, Cheng Yaojin still has three axes!"

"Wait a minute. When the Japs attack, don't be nervous. Hold your gun steady! After this battle, we are all veterans... Look, our shotguns are set up there. The little Japs will die as many as they come!

"

Just as the squad leaders were conducting the final pre-war ideological guidance for the new recruits, the Japanese team stopped, organized the attack, built infantry artillery positions, and built machine gun positions, all proceeding in an orderly manner.

"Ni Zi? Have you seen where the Japanese artillery position is?" Hong Liang, a scout from the 13th Regiment, asked quietly on a hilltop about five hundred meters away from the Japanese position.

"I didn't notice it. Just keep an eye on the phone and send us the coordinates of the artillery position at any time!" Above Hong Liang's head, Ni Ke squatted on a tree branch, observing the Japanese position through the gap with the telescope in his hand.

Boom boom boom... Half an hour later, the 92nd Infantry Artillery finally began to bombard the enemy's position behind them. Smoke rose from there, and the shells roared towards the third battalion's position.

"Hello? Coordinates... No. 7 reference object, 7 o'clock direction, 30 meters, No. 1 running position; 60 meters, No. 2 gun position..." Ni Ke was on the tree, constantly calling out the coordinates.
