Pan Yugui and Qin Dechun are good friends. People who are familiar with the top management of the 29th Army will not be surprised by this. Qin Dechun was once regarded as a pro-Japanese element, such as the "Qin-Tou Agreement". Many people believed that this was the result of his traitorous pursuit of glory. Historically, the reason why the 29th Army suffered heavy losses from the Japanese army after the Marco Polo Bridge Incident was also related to Pan Yugui's close personal relationship with the top brass of the 29th Army. Even the deployment of the 29th Army and other military secrets did not conceal Pan Yugui's "self" "People", but it turned out that it was Pan's betrayal that led to the disastrous defeat of the 29th Army in Nanyuan.
The emergence of Ouyang Feng not only changed the situation in North China, but also changed the fate of many people. Qin Dechun's previous "misdeeds" now verify the old saying "a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise", precisely because he signed the "Qin Tu" The "record" of the Agreement, coupled with Pan Yugui's heartfelt guarantee, and at the same time, due to the sudden rise of the Xuebing Army and the 57th Army, the strength of the 29th Army has been greatly reduced. Therefore, the Japanese regard Qin Dechun as a "Sino-Japanese goodwill element". At the same time, the 29th Army under his control was no longer regarded as an important threat, and Pan Yugui did not add his existing strength to it. Therefore, the Japanese did not regard him and the 29th Army under his control as a threat. The fact is that Juichi Terauchi still has Xiangyue Qingji's inference was almost established. Without the appearance of Ouyang Yun and the rise of the student army, it would be difficult to say what Qin Dechun's performance would be today. This is not to say that Qin Dechun's character is not good. The key point is that , In that era, warlords like him valued wealth above all else. At that time, there were many warlords in the country. If there were not the 29th Army, it can be said that Qin Dechun and Song Zheyuan would have been defeated long ago. Forgotten in the gaps of history,
Xiangyue Qingji originally believed that as long as the First Army showed a tough posture, the 29th Army would be invincible. Who knows, this time, even though most of the First Army's forces were directed at Huairou, the 29th Army actually stood still.
The performance of Qin Dechun and the 29th Army greatly exceeded the expectations of the Japanese army. Now a decision was placed in front of Terauchi Shouichi, whether to fight or not to fight Huairou. He did not dwell too much on this issue, because it was just In the Chicheng area under his personal command, after Ji Xingwen organized his troops, he began to use the pheasant feather troops in his hands to carry out harassment operations against the Japanese army with the cooperation of Huang He's cultural department.
The terrain in the Chiyun area is much more complex than that near Peiping, which is conducive to mobile operations by small units but not conducive to large-scale operations by large groups. In the courses taught at Renqiu Military Academy, considerable emphasis is placed on guerrilla tactics such as harassment, and Jixing As the original instructor and one of the first batch of graduates, Wen was influenced by Ouyang Yun and had considerable research on guerrilla tactics. However, those security groups, bandits and even the "provisional self-defense forces" who came from private armed forces were unable to fight head-on. , they used heresy, but each one was more powerful than the last. Under the temptation of twenty silver dollars and a Japanese head, various strange tactics emerged one after another. The most famous one was the hunting group composed of five hunters named Jiang. These five people They have been hunting in the mountains for a long time and are good at making and laying all kinds of traps and traps. Among them, Lao Yaojiang Iron Palm is also a master of marksmanship. In the end, they were stunned to kill with a medium-sized formal, three old sleeves and a few other weapons. He hunted seventeen Japs with a knife in just three days, which not only made the little Japs change their minds after hearing this, but also made him famous among the many "Self-Defense Forces".
The harassment battle launched by Ji Xingwen and Huang Hewen consumed a lot of energy from Shouichi Temple. In this case, based on Yanqing, the battle of the Changhuai Line was completely handed over to the commander of the First Army, Xiang Yue Qingji, and could not fight. Fighting Huairou has become a difficult problem for Xiangyue Qingji. For this reason, he did not hesitate to lead the headquarters staff to spend a lot of energy on the sand table for exercises. Finally, he found that if he really wanted to have a decisive battle with the main force of the Xuebing Army, Huairou must be captured, otherwise, it will be like a landmine being buried between Yan (Qing) and Chang (Ping). Once this landmine is chosen to explode, the harm to the Japanese army will be unparalleled. It may even change the battlefield advantage that the Japanese army spent a lot of energy and effort to establish. Xiangyue Qingji finally made the decision: "We must win Huairou." However, he just made up his mind to attack Huairou first, and something bad came from Changping. According to the news, the 18th Brigade was unexpectedly surrounded by the Xuebing Army, and the main attacks of the 108th Division and the 9th Division against Changping were repeatedly frustrated. It took almost 24 hours, but there was no progress.
Compared with the First Army's hundreds of thousands of troops, the 18th Brigade did not account for much weight. However, Xiangyue Qingji did not dare to sit back and watch it be wiped out, not only because it would create a humiliating history (after the Tianjin victory) , Japan has always refused to admit that the 108th Division was wiped out, and even quickly reorganized a new 108th Division). Since the Meiji Restoration, for the first time since the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese army has been completely annihilated. The troops will definitely have a very bad impact on the morale of the Japanese army. In addition, it will also be a serious blow to the prestige of the military government that has just taken power. In order to piece together a new 108th Division, the Japanese military has The reserve force has been exhausted. This time, it is impossible to create a new 18th Brigade. Another important reason is that the Ninth Division is a veteran force of the Japanese army, and the 18th Brigade is also famous. , this time the degree of fooling is much more difficult,
This time, Xiangyue Qingji did not hesitate at all on the issue of rescue or not. He immediately issued a series of orders. Except for leaving a brigade to monitor Huairou's 29th Army, all other troops set off immediately and drove to Changping to fight against the students. The soldiers came to counterattack and annihilate,
Xiangyue Qingji mobilized his troops very quickly this time, but what he didn't know was that the battle report he had just received was actually not prepared. At this time, the 18th Brigade was no longer as simple as being surrounded. To be more precise, It is said that a trapped beast still fighting is a true portrayal.
As Ouyang Yun led the guard regiment to join the battlefield in person, when the flag of the 29th Army flew high, which frightened Liu Kui and others, this was tantamount to telling the Japanese about the existence of Ouyang Yun, the commander of the Military Academy, let alone Jing Shuxuan was waiting to see if the Japanese officers understood it. At least, the officers of the grassroots combat units under the Xuebing Army did. Therefore, various shouts came from all over the battlefield: "Brothers, the little chief is here. , fight with the little devil." "Brothers, look, it's the flag of the Military Seat. The Army Seat is coming, and our student army will win this battle." "We will win."
Although he is young and has all kinds of weird problems, this does not prevent Ouyang Yun, a young officer, from quickly becoming the idol of the cadets. The fanatical power brought about by the appearance of an idol is unpredictable. As for Jing Shuxuan, who was directly bearing this huge force, even if he did not realize that Ouyang Yun, the mortal enemy of the Japanese, was coming, he had this realization: there must be important people from the Xuebing Army in the Lijia Village, otherwise, the Chinese people would not would be so crazy,
The little devils themselves are crazy enough, but to be called crazy by them shows how vigorously the soldiers are performing on the battlefield at this moment. At this time, not to mention the number, weapons and fighting will of the 18th Brigade They were already completely at a disadvantage. Even if they had the same number of people, they could no longer withstand the wave of student soldiers brought by the "little officer".
The destruction of the 18th Brigade is only a matter of time.
