Chu Yunfei had no intention of fighting the Japanese army to the bitter end. The 358th Regiment was his foundation for survival. If it were lost, even the disciples of the Emperor would be left idle in the end.
Besides, if the 358th Regiment really suffered heavy casualties, even with the principal's order, Yan Laoxi from the World War II Zone would not let him go first. Chu Yunfei knew this well.
Yan Laoxi had repeatedly ordered that the Jinsui Army in the World War II Zone was not allowed to take the initiative to attack the Japanese army. Territory in Shanxi was also lost again and again. The overall condition of the Jinsui Army in the World War II Zone was in a sluggish state and its armaments were slack.
As far as the 358th Regiment is concerned, Chu Yunfei urgently needs a powerful medicine to change the morale of all the soldiers of the 358th Regiment so as to train troops. The timing of this selection is also just right.
One is to respond to the principal's order to fight behind enemy lines, and the other is that the Japanese army's attention is mainly focused on the Eighth Route Army. The 358th Regiment's intervention will not cause the Japanese army to divert their hatred. Even if the Japanese army retaliates in the future, Chu Yunfei believes that with his own means,
It won't take long for the 358th Regiment to become a fighting force.
"Regiment seat, Liangma Town is no longer safe. Japanese artillery fire can cover the entire Liangma Town. It is too dangerous for the regiment headquarters here. Should we retreat to the fourth battalion's position?" Fang Ligong looked worried.
persuaded.
"The regiment headquarters cannot withdraw. The entire regiment is fighting bloody battles at the front. How can I, as the chief military officer, retreat? The artillery shells that can kill me, Chu Yunfei, have not been built yet?" Chu Yunfei sneered, and then said:
"Sun Ming, take the guard company with me and go to the front to supervise the battle!"
"Yes!" Sun Ming nodded in response.
Chu Yunfei did not hesitate at all, and directly led the guard company to the front line.
Fang Ligong was left alone in the regiment headquarters. Fang Ligong, who was left behind, quickly ordered the regiment personnel to be ready to move at any time.
Chu Yunfei was quite prestigious within the 358th Regiment. After taking the guard company to the front lines to supervise the battle, the morale of the 358th Regiment's officers was indeed greatly shaken.
After visiting the front line in person, the command became smoother. One battalion suffered more than a hundred casualties and successfully regained the position outside Liangma Town.
Subsequently, the two sides fought for positions several times, and the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment, which was defending frontally, suffered heavy casualties.
Qian Bojun repeatedly requested reinforcements, but Chu Yunfei sternly rejected them all. Seeing that the situation was almost over.
At this time, the two sides briefly turned off their guns, and Chu Yunfei showed a smile on his face: "It has been three hours, Sun Ming, give me the order, the artillery battalion immediately fired all the shells, the second and third battalions retreated first, and the first battalion
Send a company of troops to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese camp, and the main force will retreat immediately!"
After the order was issued, overwhelming artillery fire covered the front of the Japanese camp. An infantry squadron of the Nara Regiment, which was assembled here to prepare for the next wave of attacks, suddenly suffered a devastating blow.
Since Chu Yunfei personally supervised the battle, the three infantry battalions retreated without panic, leaving one company to take the initiative to launch a fierce offensive and engage in a fierce battle with the Japanese army.
Nara Masahiko was shocked when he heard the news: "Nani, the Jinsui Army at war actually launched an attack? Have you found out the troop number?"
"Identified from the nameplates on the military uniforms we brought back, we were fighting the 358th Regiment of the Sun Chu Division of the Sixth Group Army of the Shanxi-Sui Army. The number was about 5,000. The imperial army of this regiment was recorded in Eucalyptus. Its commander was Chu Yunfei, 1909
A native of Wutai, Shanxi Province, he graduated from the fifth phase of the Huangpu Military Academy. When he graduated, it was during the Northern Expedition, so he was assigned to the command of Yan Xishan in the Northern Expedition and was highly regarded!" reported the Japanese combat staff report on the side.
After Chu Yunfei graduated, he did not stay in the Central Army, but went to the Jinsui Army. Principal Chang had the intention of stirring up trouble within the Jinsui Army.
"Youxi, I didn't expect that there are such brave warriors in the Jinsui Army. They actually took the initiative to attack our army. They are really a commendable opponent." Nara Masahiko said with admiration: However, anyone who stands in front of our army
All enemy troops will be crushed!"
At this time, the main force of the 358th Regiment had withdrawn in full. Chu Yunfei stood on the position of the fourth battalion in the rear, and the gunfire from the front gradually ceased.
Apparently, the soldiers of a company left behind were probably in a very bad situation in the face of the Japanese counterattack.
"Regiment seat, the troops have already withdrawn, and the regiment headquarters should also withdraw!" Fang Ligong persuaded.
"Forget it, if we deal with the Japanese army again one day, I, Mr. Chu, will leave, and the rest will be the Eighth Route Army's business!" Chu Yunfei said with a half-smile.
In this battle, the 358th Regiment and Liangma Town blocked a Japanese regiment for three hours. The Japanese army was unable to launch a large-scale attack due to the terrain, resulting in more than 300 casualties. The 358th Regiment suffered nearly 800 casualties, with the 1st Battalion suffering the most heavy casualties.
World War II District Chief's Department, Kenanpo.
"Hey, you, oh, old man, my 358th regiment, it's easy for me to be in charge. The 358th regiment with more than 5,000 people is just gone. With one word from Jiang, Chu Yunfei pulled the 358th regiment out. It's really
Don't you feel sorry for me?" Yan Laoxi leaned on his chair, clutching his chest and saying out of breath.
After Chu Yunfei captured Liangma Town, he sent a telegram to the World War II District Governor's Department. Yan Laoxi saw such a good result and gave him a rare compliment.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for the second telegram to arrive, explaining the 358th Regiment's arrangements in Liangma Town.
After Yan Laoxi learned about it, he jumped anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.
After the 358th Regiment retreated south, the Japanese Nara Regiment did not launch a pursuit, but continued to march eastward along the Lintun Highway.
Not long after arriving, they encountered the 772nd Regiment. The Japanese army heard that the main force of the 386th Brigade was blocking the front, so they launched a fierce offensive and broke through the 386th Brigade's six positions in a row.
The 772nd Regiment, the Independent Regiment, and the 18th Regiment waited for the opportunity to withdraw from their positions and attacked the north and south sides respectively.
The Nara regiment followed closely and immediately divided their forces to pursue the attack. The two sides fought in many places.
"Your Excellency Dazuo, the Eighth Route Army is good at guerrilla warfare. If you rush to send troops to pursue us, will you be ambushed by the Eighth Route Army?" said a Japanese officer.
"In addition to reinforcing Handan this time, the activities are on the Lintun Highway. The 386th Brigade on the Baijin Railway is also one of our targets. However, what you said makes sense. The pursuit troops can be ordered to move closer to the surrounding counties. The main force of our unit will continue to advance.
!" Masahiko Nara said.
"Hi!"
That night, the 772nd Regiment and the Independent Regiment, which were attacking southward, took advantage of the main force of the Japanese army to advance eastward. According to the complex and changeable terrain, they threw off their pursuers and marched northward in a circuitous manner one after another.
At the time when more than 500 Japanese troops were attacking the brigade headquarters, a fierce battle was going on between the two sides. The 772nd Regiment and the Independent Regiment formed an encirclement on the Japanese troops from the southeast and southwest.
In this battle, the 386th Brigade used the superior strength of three regiments, supplemented by artillery support, to annihilate more than 500 Japanese troops and capture countless items.
"Damn it, this group of little devils traveled a long way from Linfen and experienced several interceptions along the way. I didn't expect that their combat effectiveness was so strong. If you come here a little later, my 18th regiment will have to be eaten by the little devils!"
Chang Qian Shouyi scolded his mother.
"When the time comes, you will collect the bodies for me and the brigade commander!" Qian Shouyi joked again.
"Go, go, you are just a crow's mouth, who is the brigade commander? This is all under the control of the brigade commander!" Cheng Xiazi answered.
