"Do we only need to guard for forty-eight hours?" Zhao Gongyu asked doubtfully. Perhaps because he had dealt with the puppet army too much and lacked the most basic sense of trust in the soldiers, Zhao Gongyu was already convinced that the student army should be the same as himself. It was different from any army I had ever seen, but I still couldn't help but ask such a question.
Ding Yi asked Tian Xiangyang to defend the stronghold of Liushui Town for 24 hours after seizing it. So why did Tian Xiangyang add another 24 hours? This was because he considered that the Tongliao guerrillas and the Tongliao Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army would join. For the sake of Luo Jinming Company, Tian Xiangyang believes that as long as the battle is necessary, even if it is fought to the last man, no one will have any complaints. However, the Tongliao guerrillas are different from the Tongliao Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, let alone them What is their fighting will? Because they are still friendly forces, Tian Xiangyang cannot ask them like he did to the paratroopers of Luo Jinming Company. Therefore, he has to worry that once the war continues for more than twenty-four hours, the Tongliao guerrillas will People from the army and the Tongliao Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army would desert or even flee as a whole.
The Tongliao guerrillas and the Tongliao Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army did not suffer major casualties in the previous battle with the Shimamoto Brigade. At this time, there were more than 500 people in total. After changing their clothes and preparing for the capture, they were already a force that should not be underestimated. This is not only relative to the Japanese army, but also to Luo Jinming Company. Once they abandon their position and escape, there will be a gap in the defense line. Secondly, Tian Xiangyang is most worried about whether it will affect the paratroopers of Luo Jinming Company, allowing There is a sense of instability in the troops.
In the exchange with Zhao Gongyu, Tian Xiangyang had discovered that he was a good commander and was moved by his talent. He explained seriously: "The devils need supplies, and our main force also needs them. You should know our troops in Nong'an They were mainly paratroopers. They airborne there and carried limited ammunition. However, Changchun is now in our hands. It is much easier for us to resupply than the Japanese army. So it takes forty-eight hours, maybe only twenty. Four hours, why, are you scared?"
Probably very satisfied with Tian Xiangyang's explanation, Zhao Gongyu said proudly: "I'm afraid of a ball."
"Old Zhao, there is something I must clarify." As the saying goes, no acquaintance can be achieved without fighting. After the fight, the relationship between Tian Xiangyang and Zhao Gongyu quickly heated up, and then they began to refer to each other as "Old Zhao" and "Old Tian."
"you say."
"For the sake of operational efficiency, I temporarily need your command authority. Are you willing to trust me for once?"
Zhao Gongyu looked at Tian Xiangyang, laughed for a few seconds, and said: "Old Tian, you are too polite. Langya is so famous. How can I not believe you in this alone? OK, I will listen to you next."
Tian Xiangyang thanked him and looked at Zheng Tiemiao.
Zheng Tiemiao's heart was already tied to him at this time, so she naturally agreed. She looked at him with her big watery eyes and said, "I have no problem."
"Then please tell your brothers. Don't worry, if someone really violates military discipline, I will leave it to you to deal with it yourself."
From a distance of about two thousand meters, Harem Chun had already noticed something strange in the Liushui Town stronghold, because the Japanese military flag in the middle of the military camp of the stronghold had disappeared, and this was by no means a normal phenomenon.
In fact, according to Tian Xiangyang's plan, he wanted to catch Harem Chun and the others off guard. However, Zhao Gongyu had quick hands. By the time he realized something was wrong, he had already lowered the military flag and lit it on fire. He could only do it in vain. Hu Naihe, but even so, he still immediately set up an ambush in the protective trench, just hoping that the Japanese would rush into them if they were eager to escape.
The Battle of Nong'an was finally defeated, and it happened in a very short period of time, which had a great impact on Chun in the harem.
As a veteran general of the Japanese Army, he has witnessed the rise of the Kwantung Army and its display of power in Northeast China. Therefore, although Harem Jun has improved his positioning of the enemy and lowered his rating of the Kwantung Army due to various negative news, but in After the real gap was tested in battle, he still felt a huge loss.
No wonder he was like this. In terms of military strength, the Puppet Manchukuo Defense Force of the Third Front Army, which had two divisions combined into one army, far exceeded Ding Yi's paratroopers. Their weapons and equipment were not weak. In his opinion, although they did not have air supremacy, they could still fight. There is absolutely no problem with a draw.
Even though changes occurred in Changchun later and he found it difficult to win, he was still confident. He believed that as long as he persisted until itagaki Seishiro led the main force of the local reinforcements to arrive, he would still become the final winner and be able to defeat China's strongest force. The chief instructor of the army Langya was trampled under his feet.
Ding Yi didn't feel it himself, but in the eyes of Harem Chun and other senior Japanese military officers, defeating him was regarded as an honor, so something happened that made him laugh and cry afterwards. The Battle of Nong'an was just because he was the top commander of the Chinese army. , this actually became a reason for Harem Chun to boost the morale of his subordinates.
In order to win the battle of Nong'an, it can be said that Harem Chun tried his best and exhausted all means. The more so, the more difficult it became for him to face failure. Harem Chun was still reasonable. After the defeat, he could still keep a clear mind and know what to do. Which direction should he retreat to? But now, the retreat route he thought was the safest seems to have become a trap.
After stopping his hungry men from running towards the suspension bridge of the Liushui Town stronghold, he said to Masahiro Ino, who was hanging his arm on one side: "The situation is not right."
Ino Masahiro also noticed the problem and said: "It should be the Shimamoto brigade stationed here. They should have seen us long ago. Why is no one coming out to greet us? No, could it be said that the Chinese army has occupied this place? Commander ,what to do."
Harem Chun looked around and found that many people showed vigilant expressions. At the same time, he instinctively shrank back. Knowing that they were completely frightened by the Chinese army, he sighed softly in his heart and deliberately raised his voice: "It's nothing." , even if the Chinese Army has really occupied this place, but how many people they can send, judging from the situation in the stronghold, it seems that both sides will suffer, and I guarantee that the Chinese Army has withdrawn."
Harem Chun deliberately said these words loudly to comfort his subordinates. As he wished, after hearing what he said, the faces of the Japanese were much calmer, and everyone looked at him, waiting for him to make further arrangements.
"Major Sai." Harem Chun pointed out the name of a Japanese officer under his command and ordered: "Take a few people in and take a look. Remember, there may be Chinese troops lurking inside."
"Hai." Sai took the order and picked a few people to walk towards the suspension bridge.
