Liu Yimin's New Year's Day in 1938 came from gunfire.
Fengjiakou is located at the junction of Nanpi and Cang County. Since the Jinpu Railway and highway pass by here and are close to the Grand Canal, the town is still quite lively. However, since the Japanese came, the fun of the past has become
Desolate.
At 3 a.m. on December 31, in a water diversion canal on the side of the road 7 miles north of Fengjiakou, the commander of the cavalry of the Fourth Brigade, Wang Shuyou, and the instructor Shi Qianli were quietly lying on the edge of the canal, staring at
His eyes looked at the south side of the road. Behind them were more than 200 soldiers from the Cavalry Battalion of the Fourth Brigade of the Church.
Wang Shuyou and Shi Qianli are old partners. When the Red Seventh Army established the Independent First Division after the Hanyang Town victory, they were the company commander and instructor of the battalion that was taken from the Red Seventh Army. When the Only Division established the Cavalry Battalion, two people
They were transferred to the cavalry camp and started to make a living on the horse's back.
Now, the cavalry battalion is not only equipped with sabers, carriage rifles, submachine guns, Bayi automatic rifles, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, grenade launchers, as well as a radio station, three rocket launchers and an engineer squad dedicated to blasting and mine burying.
Wang Shuyou said that this weapon and equipment are much better than any cavalry equipment in China.
They arrived here last night.
Before leaving, the brigade commander Lei Ming told them that when they went to Fengjiakou, the Japanese would definitely pass there, buried electric explosive packs, anti-tank mines, anti-infantry mines, and blow him up on the road.
When he arrived at Fengjiakou, Wang Shuyou knew that the brigade commander's judgment was correct. This was indeed a major transportation route. When the Japanese army went north to Cang County, they would definitely pass by here. Of course, the North China Plain could march everywhere. If the Japanese walked on the road, they would
It is also possible to walk on the wheat fields on the side of the road. So Wang Shuyou ordered the First Company and the Fire Support Company to bury electric explosive packages and anti-tank mines and anti-infantry mines on the road, and buried ordinary mines and earthworks in the wheat fields on both sides of the road.
Landmines. The second company retreated eight miles backwards, continued to bury mines, built positions, connected with the first company and the fire support company, and the third company retreated fifteen miles backwards, built positions.
The tutors can now make landmines. As long as the troops are idle, they can use materials on the spot to make black gunpowder, clay pots, clay tanks, iron barrels, and stone cylinders, and then add iron wire and nails.
, bamboo sticks and wooden sticks are much more powerful.
After finishing busy, Wang Shuyou and Shi Qianli took a company and a fire support company to hide in the dry water diversion canal, and cut the canal into a gentle slope with engineer shovels along both sides to facilitate the war horse operation. Then they quietly waited for the arrival of the Japanese.
.
The winter nights in North China are very cold, and the soldiers are so cold that they have long snots and can only use soy sauce or chili water to keep warm. Wang Shuyou couldn't help but mutter: "You little Japanese, come quickly! If you don't come, grandpa will be frozen into popsicles.
.”
Shi Qianli pushed Wang Shuyou: "What are you muttering about? You will come. The Japanese will not want Tianjin."
While the two were talking, the scouts sent rushed over, rolled off the saddle, grabbed a soldier's kettle, and drank a few big mouthfuls of chili water, then reported: "Report to the battalion commander, instructor: The devils are here.
There are so many people, leading two tanks, four armored vehicles, more than 100 cavalry and a squadron of infantry. The team behind them can’t see clearly, there are so many, old elders.”
When Wang Shuyou heard this, he immediately ordered: "Put up the mortars, grenade launchers, bazooka launchers, and light and heavy machine guns. The bazooka launchers are responsible for countering tanks and armored vehicles without mines, mortars, grenade launchers and rifles.
Infantry, light and heavy machine gun, submachine gun, and 81 rifle are concentrated against the cavalry. After destroying the Japanese tanks, armored vehicles and cavalry, they will retreat immediately. The engineer squad came to me and listened to my order to activate the explosive pack. I will be eating meat."
The vanguard of the 10th Division was the 8th Brigade of Setakehei and the 1st Battalion of the 39th Regiment of the 39th Regiment of the Numata Takazo. The brigade was also specially equipped with two tanks, four armored vehicles and a squadron of cavalry. This marshal
It should be said that he is very strong. Colonel Duojiazang of Numata said that it is okay to defeat a Chinese army, and destroying a Chinese division is like going to Kamu Town for fun, no problem.
At 3:20, the vanguard of the 10th Division entered the mine formation arranged by the Cavalry Battalion of the 4th Brigade. The leading ones were two tanks and four armored vehicles, cavalry and infantry followed behind. Maybe they had eaten a lot along the way.
The search team was hit hard, and the enemy's vanguard actually advanced in a dense formation.
First, two tanks hit the anti-tankre, causing an explosion. The Japanese were about to launch a battle formation, and Wang Shuyou issued an attack order. The engineer squad leader pressed the detonator fiercely, and a huge shock sounded on the road.
The sound of the long road exploded a series of large pits. Then the mortar of the fire support company and the grenade launcher bombarded the infantry formation. The shells carried a ray of light in the dark night and smashed the Japanese infantry formation.
This is not the end. Anti-infantry mines and the Japanese soldiers hiding from all over the world recited the supernatural curse again.
The light and heavy machine guns, submachine guns and Bayi automatic rifles opened fire. The target was the Japanese cavalry number one hundred. The firepower was fierce and dense, causing the Japanese war horses and cavalry to dance in the fire net.
The most unlucky one was the four armored vehicles. Although they did not hit the anti-tankre, they became targets of the rocket launcher and were beaten to the point of burning and caught fire. All the Japanese soldiers inside became roasted suckling pigs.
Look at it, the Japanese tanks, armored vehicles and cavalry were all reimbursed, and the Japanese soldiers who were not killed had already begun to lie down and shoot. The long headlights of the Japanese in the distance were getting closer and closer. Wang Shuyou no longer
When they were in love with the battle, they did not count the results. With an order, the cavalry battalion packed up their weapons and boarded the horse to transfer them.
When Colonel Manuda Takakazang arrived at the scene, the battlefield had already become silent. In addition to the burning tanks, armored vehicles, the bodies of people and horses, the soldiers who were lucky enough to survive were all stunned and sticking their butts out.
Climbing on the ground and shooting non-stop.
Colonel Manuda Takakazo kicked a lieutenant in the butt and pulled it up to ask about the situation.
The second lieutenant reported tremblingly that after receiving the order to force the army, the brigade began to advance. This period was still calm and he did not encounter any attacks from bandits. As a result, he encountered a burial when he got here. The captain rode on the war horse and immediately
The jade was broken. The Chinese army had very strong firepower, and we had no chance to fight back at all.
Colonel Duojiazang Numata asked what unit attacked the Imperial Army?
The second lieutenant couldn't tell what unit it was, but it was all cavalry, with more than 200 cavalry. When the main force came up, he ran along the road.
"Caval?" Colonel Duojiazang of Numata rolled his eyes and thought for a long time, but he couldn't remember that the Chinese cavalry would have such powerful firepower. However, he was not stupid and knew that this must be the outpost troops of the instructor Liu Yimin.
Thinking about it, Colonel Mamada Takakazo ordered to report to Major General Takehei, the brigade regiment, and ordered the main force of the corps to bypass the highway, walk through the wheat field, catch up with the small group of Chinese cavalry, and tear them apart.
When the Japanese army left the road and walked towards the wheat field, they stepped on the mines buried in the wheat field again, and there was another cry of crying and calling for parents.
Colonel Mamada Takyazang immediately ordered the engineer to detect the thunder.
Each division of the Japanese army has an engineering corps, and mine detection is the basic business of engineering squad. A small team of engineers carefully opened the way forward with a mine detector. It was really good. He really found a lot of iron mines. However, Liu Yimin
The soldiers taught were not that simple. The iron mines were all mother and child thunders or chain thunders. The thunders below exploded when they moved above and below, and even the engineer squad leader was blown away.
The Japanese army was really tenacious. The engineers finally checked the iron mines. Colonel Duojiazang of Numata waved his hand and the Japanese brigade rushed to the wheat field. Unexpectedly, there were still explosions in the wheat field, causing the Japanese soldiers to cry and howl.
Colonel Duojiazang of Numata was so angry that he went to check it out in person and found that it was the Chinese who put black gunpowder in pottery vessels for landmines, and the mine detector could not be detected at all.
After Major General Se Takehei, the 8th Brigade Brigade, caught up, Colonel Naganda Takazo hurriedly reported the experience of the vanguard to the brigade commander. Major General Se Takehei checked the scene and silently spoke in front of the wreckage of the tanks and armored vehicles.
, I can't figure out what weapon is so powerful that it can turn the armored vehicle into a pile of rotten iron.
Seeing that the brigade commander was silent, Colonel Duojiazang of Numata said, "These troops are not simple. A small cavalry unit actually has such powerful firepower and dares to attack the vanguard of the Imperial Army equipped with tanks and armored vehicles.
, It seems that the 21st Brigade is indeed broken in the hands of this army."
Major General Se Takehei didn't seem to hear Colonel Takakazo Numata, and looked up at the dark night sky. The night sky was so deep and as unfathomable.
Colonel Manuta Takyazo didn't understand why the brigade commander didn't speak, so he walked up to him and heard Major General Se Takehei muttering softly: "Is the Battle of Tianjin now the beginning? The mysterious Liu Yimin
, I look forward to meeting you!"
Colonel Duojiazang Numata felt a chill in his heart. This devil-like instructor was scary when he thought about it. It would be better to hide from them. The brigade commander didn't know what kind of nerves he was, and he was looking forward to meeting Liu Yimin. Is it still?
Want to follow the footsteps of the 21st Brigade?
Major General Se Takehei seemed to have no idea about Colonel Takakazo Numata and ordered the troops to camp on the spot to deal with the body of the Jade Broken soldier. Wait until dawn before advancing.
Colonel Mamada Takyazang was very satisfied with this order. Marines at dawn can avoid many dangers. If necessary, they can also call for air force support. The safety factor is much greater. After taking a flattery of "The Brigade Commander, the wise man", I was busy
It's time to arrange the troops to camp.
Wang Shuyou and Shi Qianli led the First Company and the Fire Support Company to retreat to the Second Company's position, they hurriedly sent a report to the brigade commander and reported the battle in Fengjiakou. Then they sat in the Second Company's position waiting for the enemy to come up.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement from the enemy. Wang Shuyou discussed with Shi Qianli and said, "Old guy, this Japanese man must play tricks. We can no longer make this frontal blockade. It would be easy for the Japanese to make dumplings. I think this way, I
Lead the first company to the east, and you lead the second company to the west, attack them from both sides, and run away after a fight. They must not be caught up with them. Let the fire support company retreat to the third company. We will fight on both sides, probably
The Japanese will continue to walk on the main road, and then we will evacuate the whole family."
Shi Qianli also felt that it would be very dangerous to do this. The Japanese soldiers were too powerful and could not escape once they were stuck. You should know that the Japanese not only had tanks and cars, but also had powerful cavalry troops!
The two of them were about to give an order, and the observation post reported that the Japanese were camping.
Wang Shuyou thought, it would be too sorry for him if he didn't take advantage of the Japanese camp to get him in a camp. Then he thought, the Japanese camp was not something that his own camp could afford. Never touch the camp, that way
I can't come back. It's better to bring a mortar to him from a distance, so that they can't sleep. I'll leave after a few shots. When they catch up, I'll run away.
After discussing with Shi Qianli, the two decided that Wang Shuyou would take two mortar platoons to harass the enemy. The first company moved to the east, the second company moved to the west, the grenade platoon of the fire support company and the heavy machine gun platoon were withdrawn from the third.
The company's position, laying all the remaining mines and explosive packs in front of the third company's position, forming a mine belt. When the mortar platoon attacks end the Japanese's pursuit, the first and second companies attack from both sides, forcing the enemy to hit the second company.
The mines in front of the position. Then the first company, the second company, and the mortar platoon all retreated to the third company's position, and retreated after a small blockade there.
Soon, the team separated, and Wang Shuyou took two mortar platoons back the same way, moving one after another to the two sides invisible directions.
When Wang Shuyou returned to the battlefield near Fengjiakou, he saw that the Japanese were indeed camping. The surroundings were heavily guarded, and several large fires were set up in the middle of the camp, as if burning corpses. The Japanese could still hear the Japanese singing and chanting scriptures from afar.
Wang Shuyou said to the two platoon leaders: "Just target the fire, one squad and one igniter, each gun is six, and you will withdraw after the shooting. The action should be fast!"
The soldiers quickly set up their cannons, and after a simple distance measurement, they started to bombard them. A group of 12 shells flew neatly across the night sky and hit the enemy's camp. After the battle, they took them with them regardless of the results of the battle.
When they were on the cannon, they ran away, and they didn't even look back and looked around.
This was a complete anger of Major General Se Takehei. These troops were so disgusting that they regarded the elite 10th Division as soft persimmons, and they could pinch whatever they wanted! Major General Se Takehei immediately ordered the troops to finish their camping, using tanks and
The armored vehicles were the pioneers and went out in multiple ways to catch up and eliminate these bold guys.
The Japanese tanks and armored vehicles were all activated, and the headlights illuminated the night sky, guiding the infantry, artillery, and cavalry to pounce on the road and wheat fields.
The movement of the Japanese troops was indeed amazing, but they could not scare the soldiers of the cavalry battalion. The first company and the second company hid on both sides, and immediately used light machine guns and submachine guns. The Bayi automatic rifle attacked the Japanese on both sides.
After the battle, Major General Se Takehei was secretly surprised. However, the 10th Division was elite Japanese troops, and they could not scare them even a small-scale attack. The large Japanese troops still looked forward
He rolled away. He stopped for a moment until he encountered a mine buried in front of the Second Company's position, lost three tanks and left some corpses. Then the Japanese brigade rolled forward again.
After the first and second companies withdrew the third company's position, the third company and the fire support company had completed the mine laying and burying explosive packs. Wang Shuyou said as soon as he saw Shi Qianli, "There are too many Japanese devils, we are not opponents, this time, all the explosives are
The mines were buried. Let the soldiers change into the Japanese military uniforms. After the Japanese came up, they concentrated their firepower to beat him up, and then they detonated the explosive package and let the mine formation block the Japanese. We took the opportunity to disguise themselves as Japanese soldiers to retreat and let them separate them.
It’s hard to pursue if you don’t know the enemy.”
As soon as the two men took the soldiers to prepare for the battle, the Japanese brigade came up, with tanks and armored vehicles lined up one by one, followed by black Japanese infantry and cavalry.
Seeing that the Japanese were in great power, Wang Shuyou immediately ordered the explosive pack to be exploded. Taking advantage of the smoke and dust caused by the explosion, all the light and heavy firearms in the camp opened fire, causing the Japanese formation to stagnate.
Seeing that the time for retreat had come, Wang Shuyou immediately ordered the retreat.
As soon as the cavalry battalion retreated, the Japanese tank guns came. If they retreated for a while, they would really not be able to leave.
Major General Se Takehei was so angry that his eyes were almost bulging out, but so many landmines blocked the troops' movements. By the time the Japanese army bypassed the mine formation, the cavalry battalion had already disappeared into the vast night.
Major General Se Takehei was furious and contacted the division commander, requesting to transfer the cavalry regiment to the ground and prepare to surround the Chinese cavalry who were making trouble.
After receiving the report from the Fourth Independent Division, Liu Yimin immediately got up in his clothes and began to think about the map. The 10th Division on the southern line was finally coming, and the Kwantung Army's southward corps on the western line was probably coming, so how could the Japanese army say
They actually came together at the same time? Why did the 10th Division act slowly a few days ago and now have to attack overnight without having to gain air supremacy? Needless to say, the 6th Division, the 16th Division, and the Guoqi Detachment
It's here, and it's not far from the 10th Division and the 108th Division, so you can provide reinforcements at any time. Otherwise, the 10th Division wouldn't have ventured forward at night.
Liu Yimin sent a telegram to Hu Laohu. Hu Laohu reported that at around 4 o'clock, the battalion of the regiment and battalion, which was in charge of harassing mission, exchanged fire with the enemy, relying on landmines and explosive packs to block the harassing enemy step by step. The Langfang line is ready to ensure that it is guaranteed.
Hold the enemy's attack.
After putting down the telegram, Liu Yimin always felt something was wrong, so he lit a cigarette and thought silently.
At 5:30 a.m., Qian Zhuangfei sent an emergency telegram, and the Japanese army landed in Qinhuangdao at 5 a.m.
After putting down the telegram, Liu Yimin thought briefly. The reinforcements from the Japanese army arrived, and it seemed that the scale was still large. Only the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy could do this. In other words, Tianyiming and Tianjin were also good.
Whether it is Langfang or Cangxian, it is all within the bombing range of the Japanese Joint Fleet aircraft.
Liu Yimin, who has watched the blockbuster "Pearl Harbor" and "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!", naturally knew the power of the combined fleet carrier-based aviation. If the Fourth Brigade was taught to face the 10th Division in Cang County, the Cavalry Brigade was in Langfang and
Needless to say, the Kwantung Army's aircraft and the combined fleet's aircraft will fly to the battlefield like flocks of crows. At that time, it will basically be Cangxian and Langfang with brick and wood structures, civil structures.
I'm afraid it will be razed to the ground under the bombing of the Japanese army.
It's ridiculous that I was smart and confused for a lifetime. I was still thinking about letting the Fourth Brigade of the Education County stay in Cang County for two days. I was so confused. The Japanese army was worried that I couldn't find the main force of the instructor. I was not putting the troops as a target for the Japanese to attack.
Is it? There is also the small Langfang, where three elite divisions of the Kwantung Army siege, and the cavalry brigade cannot retreat even if they want to. Just thinking that their troops are good at long-distance raids and flexible tactics, why don’t they pay attention to the Japanese army’s good at roundabouts
What about the encirclement? The Kwantung Army has a high degree of mechanization, and this is the North China Plain. No matter how fast the war horses are, can they pass cars or planes faster?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that fighting against the enemy in Cangxian and Langfang was a bad chess, Liu Yimin did not hesitate anymore, and immediately sent a report to Hu Laohu and Lei Ming: "100,000. The enemy naval joint fleet has arrived and landed on Qinhuangdao this morning, with a huge force.
The Sixth Division, the 16th Division and the Guoqi Detachment, which were drawn from the enemy's Nanjing direction, have also arrived south of Cang County. At this point, a heavy army encirclement against Tianjin has been formed. In order to avoid unnecessary losses, the special order is: the Fourth Brigade
The cavalry brigade was originally defending Cang County, and Langfang mission was cancelled. The main force of the 4th brigade immediately quickly moved in the direction of Xian County, leaving troops with strong mobility to defend Cang County, using landmines and fortifications to kill the enemy, disguised as Japanese troops evacuated Cang County, and released them.
The Japanese army advanced towards Tianjin; ordered the main force of the cavalry brigade to evacuate Langfang immediately, and headed to Baxian, and waited for the guard regiment on the south bank of the Daqing River, preparing to receive the guard regiment. The cavalry, the first battalion, who was originally responsible for the harassment mission, led the enemy to Langfang, and pretended to be the Japanese army.
Quickly break away from contact with the enemy and catch up with the main force. The Fourth Brigade and the Cavalry Brigade evacuated Cang County. In front of Langfang, the Cang County and Langfang Station should be completely blown up Cang County and Langfang Station so that the enemy cannot use the railway. In addition: Liu led the guard regiment to continue to be confused in Tianjin today
The enemy pretended to be a Japanese army and evacuated Tianjin at night, advanced westward to join the cavalry brigade."
After sending the telegram, Liu Yimin was worried and called again to ask if he received it and whether he had started the execution?
After receiving the exact answer, Liu Yimin felt relieved and ordered Zhang Haitao to make arrangements to destroy the Tianjin headquarters and the locomotive. Waiting for the order to explode, he sat down quietly and began to draft the "Letter to the Tianjin People".
At seven o'clock in the morning, Lei Ming and Hu Laohu reported that the main force had been evacuated safely and were moving to their destination.
After receiving the report, Liu Yimin went to visit consulates from various countries again and delivered a speech on "New Year's Day Speech" on the radio.
In his speech, Liu Yimin said: "Comrades from all walks of life in Tianjin: On this New Year's Day in 1938, on behalf of the Tianjin Anti-Japanese Democratic Government, I wish you all the suffering compatriots!
On July 7 last year, the Japanese devils launched the Lugou Bridge Incident and began a full-scale war of aggression against China. At the beginning of the war, the Japanese army arrogantly claimed that China would be destroyed in three months. Now, five months have passed, although the Japanese army has occupied our capital.
, occupied cities such as Peking, Tianjin, Taiyuan, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Jinan, etc., but our government is still there, our army is still fighting for the enemy. The corpses of 40,000 Japanese troops under the city of Taiyuan show that the Japanese devils destroyed China purely
It’s a foolish dream, it’s never possible to achieve it!”
In his speech, Liu Yimin called on the people of Tianjin to take action, devote himself to the fiery war of resistance against Japan, and together with the people of the whole country, he drove the Japanese out of China.
At the end of the speech, Liu Yimin called out the slogan "Down with Japanese imperialism! Win the War of Resistance! Long live the Chinese nation!" three times inspiring the people of Tianjin to fight against Japan.
