After Liu Yimin launched the fishing operation, he immediately adjusted his deployment and ordered the supplementary regiment of the First Teaching Brigade to quickly enter Weicheng to take over the defense of the First Teaching Regiment. With the cooperation of the special forces led by Wang Laohu, he defended Weicheng. The First Teaching Regiment immediately left the city and prepared to fight with the Second Teaching Regiment.
The regiment, the Third Regiment, the New Regiment, and the troops directly under the division will work together to eliminate the 104th Brigade that may arrive at Shilibao soon.
What Liu Yimin didn't expect was that the first to arrive was not the 104th Brigade, but the two supplementary brigades of the 108th Division stationed in Changyi and Pingdu.
Each division of the Japanese army has a supplementary brigade, which is not included in the formal establishment. Its main task is to replenish combat losses. This mechanism can easily ensure the combat effectiveness of field divisions and play the role of making up for immediate losses. Like the Fifth Division and the Sixth Division
Such a first-class field division generally has four supplementary brigades. However, an ad hoc division such as the 108th Division only has two supplementary brigades.
Under normal circumstances, the supplementary brigade operates with the division and regiment headquarters. It does not undertake independent combat tasks and is not equipped with heavy weapons. It will make up for the troops that suffer the most casualties.
The 108th Division pursued the main force of the Ludong Group of the Eighth Route Army from Jiaodong to the Jiao Lai area and Changwei area. Due to the long front line, the two supplementary brigades of the 108th Division were also used separately for protection.
Transportation lines from Wei County to Pingdu and from Wei County to Changyi.
The Japs in the two supplementary brigades are now free. They are all 30-year-old reserve soldiers recruited. They are married, have wives and children, and know that money is needed to support their families. They also know that raping Chinese women will not lead to any consequences.
Legal pursuits, harming the common people whenever they have the opportunity, rape, robbery, extortion, and extortion are their specialties. They are much better than the 20-year-old soldiers of the Fifth and Sixth Divisions, which have the most powerful combat capabilities. Lian Yi
0. The Japs in other units of the 8th Division all call them bandits in the Japanese army. As long as they fall into the hands of these Japs with the worst discipline among the Japanese army, they are considered to have entered the gate of hell, and basically their families will be destroyed.
Since these two supplementary brigades lacked heavy weapons, let alone armored vehicles, tanks and other sharp weapons, and were extremely evil, they became the first choice for small units and guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army and militiamen to seek revenge against the Japanese during the Eighth Route Army's cold-blooded campaign.
The scramble to take care of them caused the two supplementary brigades to suffer heavy casualties. They were originally infantry supplementary brigades of about a thousand men, but in the end they were reduced by half, barely enough to reach 500 men.
Such heavy casualties made the 30-year-old old Japanese in the two supplementary brigades frightened and kept asking for reinforcements and heavy weapons from the division headquarters. As a result, soldiers were replenished from Japan, but the heavy weapons still remained.
No. Because they are a supplementary team after all and may be supplemented by other troops at any time, Xia Yuan Xiong Mi still did not replenish them with heavy weapons. As a result, the number of casualties of these two brigades was still very high in the constant cold attacks of the Eighth Route Army.
He soon regained the top spot on the battle loss list of the 108th Division, and hunkered down in his stronghold every day, not daring to show his face.
After the Japanese Twelfth Army decided to launch a mopping-up operation on Jiaoji Road, the commander of the 108th Division, Xia Yuan Xiongmi, considered that the two supplementary brigades suffered too many casualties and lacked heavy weapons, so he decided to transfer them back to Weixian to accompany the division commander
Therefore, when he learned that the 33rd Division was marching eastward to Pingdu, Xia Yuan Xiongmi ordered them to hand over the defense of the stronghold to the puppet army and withdraw to Wei County to stand by.
After receiving Xia Yuan Xiong Mi's order, the Japs of the supplementary brigade stationed in Changyi were lucky enough to say that they were close to Wei County, only more than fifty miles away, and could walk for five hours. They were not in a hurry, and planned to do so at night.
Prepare to set off at dawn and arrive at Weicheng before 10 a.m. The little Japs stationed in Pingdu can’t wait any longer. They are 150 or 60 miles away from Weixian County. They must set off immediately. If it’s late,
It might be impossible to make it in time for the division to attack. Therefore, the Japanese captain of the supplementary brigade hurriedly handed over the defense to the 33rd Division. After dinner, he took the troops with him and loaded up the only ten cars.
Loading ammunition boxes, and loading the looted grain into dozens of stolen carts, the soldiers rode bicycles and stolen mules and donkeys, carrying baggage on their bayonets, and followed the cars and carts in a hurry.
Busy on the road.
It was also this little devil's luck that at this time, the Ludong Group troops commanded by Zeng Zhongsheng were launching attacks on the ground east of Changle and north of Jiaoji Road. The main force of the instructors led by Liu Yimin had not yet crossed Jiaoji Road, Pingdu, and the vicinity of Changyi.
There is no large force of the Eighth Route Army, only some local armed forces. When these local armed forces saw that the little Japs dared to march at night with torches, they naturally wanted to hunt down the stray dogs and find their way to the ocean. No one could have imagined that the local armed forces of the Eighth Route Army pursued the Japs and accelerated the march of the Japs.
Speed, they ran faster.
This group of little devils fled all the way without even turning on the radio. They did not know that the commander of the 12th Army, Lieutenant General Odaka Kamezo, was attacked at the Twenty Mile Fort, nor did they receive a message from Moto Kuma Mi under the disguise of Liu Yimin.
After receiving the telegram, he hurried on his way and rushed to Weicheng in a daze.
At ten o'clock in the morning, two groups of Japanese soldiers arrived outside Weixian City together, preparing to enter the city from Weicheng Beiguan.
Wang Congyun, leader of the supplementary regiment of the First Teaching Brigade, and political commissar Wei Chuangran led the troops to change defenses with the First Teaching Group. As soon as they completed the deployment of Weicheng, they received a notice from the brigade's reconnaissance company. A group of Japanese soldiers were heading towards Weicheng. It looked like they were
After returning from the defense, there were looted things on cars, carts, on the backs of animals, and on the bayonets of soldiers.
This Wang Congyun is from Haicheng, Liaoning, and comes from a family of bandits.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, everyone in the Northeast knew that you couldn't be a general without a beard, and you couldn't be a wife without a prostitute. Wang Congyun's grandfather and father were both big bandits, and they were big bandits who had friendship with Zhang Zuolin. When they saw Marshal Zhang acting like a big man in the Northeast,
After he became rich and became the king of the Northeast, he followed his example and asked Wang Congyun to study in a foreign school. After graduation, he was sent to serve as a soldier under Marshal Zhang in order to have a good background.
Not to mention, Zhang Xueliang really missed his old friendship and sent Wang Congyun to the United States to study military affairs. After graduating from West Point Military Academy and returning to the Northeast, just in time for the September 18th Incident, Zhang Xueliang withdrew from the Northeast without firing a shot. This angered Wang Congyun.
Returning to his hometown in Haicheng, he led his father's group of old brothers to fight against the Japs. After persisting for more than a year, the team was wiped out by the Japs, and the whole family was killed by the Japs' bayonets.
Wang Congyun, who narrowly escaped death, entered the border alone and went to Beiping and Tianjin to plan a comeback. He was preparing to raise funds, food and grass, and pull up a team to return to Liaoning to fight against Japan. Unfortunately, the political climate in Pingjin and Tianjin was wrong at that time, and everything was wrong from top to bottom.
During the negotiations with Japan, Wang Congyun said that those who resisted Japan were guilty. Wang Congyun stayed in Pingjin for more than a year and achieved nothing. However, he saw the Kuomintang thoroughly and simply went south to join the Red Army.
Wang Congyun was unlucky. When he arrived in the Soviet area, it was when the suppression of counter-revolutionaries was expanding. He graduated from West Point Military Academy and learned a lot of American military theories and the outspoken style of American officers.
He told the story of growing up in a beard nest in detail, and he was soon sent to the Ministry of Security for review. Not bad, he had a degree from West Point Military Academy and experience in the Northeast Anti-Japanese War. He became famous as soon as he joined the Red Army and defended
The Ministry of Justice came and went without any problems, and they couldn't do anything to him, so they took him on a long march.
After the news of the 18th Red Regiment's victory at Xikou reached the Red Army headquarters, Wang Congyun accidentally heard the news. From then on, Liu Yimin's name was deeply imprinted in his mind. It was not until the headquarters and the 7th Red Army met in Zunyi that he
He found a piece of paper, wrote down his resume, and begged the security department cadres to report his situation to his superiors. He asked to join the army as a soldier, and also requested to join the Central Guard Division, saying that Division Commander Liu Yimin would definitely realize his value.
.
It was also Wang Congyun's turn of events. When Liu Yimin returned to the army after attending the Zunyi Conference, Boss Zhu mentioned Wang Congyun to him, saying that it was not easy for graduates of the U.S. West Point Military Academy to join the Red Army, and they were still waiting for assignments from the Security Department. Liu Yimin became energetic as soon as he heard this, and replied
When he was in the army, he took Wang Congyun away directly.
After arriving at the Central Guard Division, Wang Congyun first served as a staff officer at the division headquarters and traveled thousands of miles to Chengdu with the troops. When the Seventh Red Army Corps was established, Wang Congyun asked to be dismissed from the troops and asked to start from the beginning as a platoon leader. Liu Yimin admired his heroic spirit.
He was asked to serve as a platoon leader in the Old 1st Battalion of the 11th Red Division. Fighting all the way to Tongguan, Wang Congyun not only learned the old Red Army style in the Old 1st Battalion, but also made many military exploits and was selected to study at the Anti-Japanese University. After going north to fight against the Japanese, he served as
The leader of the Replenishment Group of the First Teaching Brigade.
Wei Chunhui, the political commissar of the 1st Teaching Brigade who partnered with Wang Congyun, is even more legendary. He has passed the customs eight times without losing his head. Historically, he was the founding major general of the People's Liberation Army and the first political commissar of the People's Liberation Army Art Academy.
Wei Chuangli was a native of Da County, Sichuan. His family was wealthy, he received a good education since childhood, and his calligraphy was very famous in his hometown. He went to middle school at the age of 17 and was a classmate of Zhang Aiping. After the Fourth Red Army arrived in the county, Wei Chuangli, who was already a party member, joined the Red Army.
He became the head of the Propaganda Section. As a result, Zhang Guotao continued to expand the suppression of counter-revolutionaries in the Sichuan-Shaanxi base area. He thought that he was a small intellectual who was swaying to the left and wanted to be strictly investigated. He was almost shot several times.
When Shaanxi was carrying out land reform, the central government transferred a group of local cadres from the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army. Zeng Zhongsheng recommended him to Liu Yimin. As a result, after the land reform was carried out, Wei Tradition stayed in the Seventh Red Army. After going north to fight against Japan, Wei Tradition served as a supplement to the First Teaching Brigade.
political commissar.
Wang Congyun is tall and strong, and after drinking foreign ink for several years, he still has not changed the boldness of the Northeastern people and the gangsterism that grew up in the beard nest, and his rough talk. Wei is traditionally gentle and delicate, short in stature, and it is not difficult for two people to match the team.
There was a tacit understanding. As soon as Wang Congyun said something bad, Wei Tradition would ask him whether it came from the West Point or Beard Cult, which would immediately render Wang Congyun speechless.
After receiving the report from the brigade reconnaissance company, Wang Congyun discussed with Wei Chuanchuan and decided to put these Japs into the city to eliminate them. However, considering that the division commander is now in Weicheng, his supplementary regiment is equivalent to the division commander's temporary guard force.
, if there was any mistake, Wang Congyun called Zhang Linfeng, deputy director of the staff office who was accompanying the division commander, for instructions. As soon as Zhang Linfeng checked the combat order of the 108th Division Headquarters, he knew that these devils were ordered to return by Yuan Xiongmi.
The Japs from Weicheng replenished the brigade and quickly reported to Liu Yimin.
Liu Yimin was busy telegraphing the battle with Major General Asasaburo Kobayashi, Chief of Staff of the Twelfth Army, and Lieutenant General Shigetaro Amakasu, Commander of the 33rd Division. When he heard Zhang Linfeng’s report, he didn’t even raise his head: “You come early, you die quickly.
!Tell Wang Congyun and Wei Chuanyuan to put them in the city and use their bayonets to attack me. They have to move quickly and don’t let the sound of gunfire spread out!"
After receiving the order, Wang Congyun couldn't help dancing and laughing.
Wei Chunchuan reminded him to make arrangements quickly. The little devil would be at the gate of the city soon. Why is he giggling so hard?
Wang Congyun suppressed his laughter and said to Wei Chunchuan: "Political commissar, the division commander has always emphasized using bullets and artillery shells to talk to the Japanese, which makes the soldiers' stabbing skills useless. Now, let's supplement the regiment with bayonets first.
See the red. The division commander said that the troops who dare to bayonet and see the red are the troops with excellent style. Haha, once this battle is over, my supplementary group may be upgraded to the main group. The two of us will become the main group.
Whoever wants to be the leader of the supplementary regiment, let him do it. Anyway, I have done enough. In addition to training troops every day, I just carry ammunition boxes, follow the main force and smell the shit, and do it for a while.
I’m afraid no one knows that I was born in Huge, graduated from West Point, and was a military cadre trained at the Anti-Japanese University!”
Soldiers are all like this. They all want to be the main force, and no one wants to be the shadow behind the main force. Especially the First Teaching Brigade, which is the first-class main force in the entire army. They will fight for anything. Liu Yimin can even name every soldier in the First Teaching Brigade.
They all shouted out. The supplementary group is different. Since its establishment until now, not to mention Chiefs Liu and Luo, even Chief of Staff Zeng and Director Cai rarely come. This is because they are busy, and more importantly, the supplementary group is with them.
status issues in the eyes.
Wang Congyun's words also aroused the traditional heroic spirit of Wei, and he opened his mouth and said: "Ge Laozi, put on the bayonet and fuck his son of a bitch!"
When Wang Congyun heard the elegant Wei Chuanjun speak Sichuan slang, Wang Congyun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly. After laughing, he took a 38-meter cap from the guard, put on the bayonet, and shouted, "Let's go."
, Fight with the little devil on the bayonet!" Together with Wei Chuanchuan, he led the guard platoon on their horses and galloped towards the north gate.
When Major Hirata, the captain of the Japanese supplementary brigade stationed in Pingdu, arrived at the north gate of Weicheng, he was so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes. It was also a night of marching, starting after dinner last night and covering 150 to 60 miles.
, although they had vehicles and animals to travel around and did not have to march on foot, they could not sleep without sleep all night.
Seeing the sentry guarding the north gate holding a rifle and conducting repeated interrogations, Major Hirata felt the fire in his heart. He wanted to get out of the car several times and go to teach the sentry a lesson. Thinking that this was the headquarters of the division and a war was imminent, he wanted to do an interrogation.
Being strict was the right thing to do, so he ignored the sentries guarding the city gate. Until a sentry snatched off the baggage carried on the bayonet of one of his soldiers and threw it down into the watchtower. Major Hirata couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and stepped down.
The motorcycle passed the soldiers in front, stepped forward, stretched out his hand to pull the sentry, and gave him a slap in the face. After the slap, he roared: "You are a farmer's son, a low-class person, and you don't even open your eyes to look at us.
I was ordered by the division commander to return to Weicheng to serve as a guard for the division headquarters. How dare you snatch the trophies from my soldiers? I will tell your division commander to put you in solitary confinement!"
Major Hirata was also bragging. They were obviously a replenishment brigade, but Shimomoto Kumiya was worried about their lack of combat effectiveness, so he withdrew to prepare for replenishment. Since he didn't think the word "replenishment" sounded good, he said that they were coming back to serve as guards at the division headquarters.
Task.
The sentry who was beaten did not expect that Major Hirata would suddenly go berserk. After being beaten, his eyes almost burst out with fire. He pushed the gun to the end with a whoosh and loaded it. The sergeant leading the team next to him was still quick-witted and quickly snatched it away.
The sentry's gun pointed at Major Hirata, saluting and bowing, and kept saying, "Team headquarters, I'm causing trouble for you." Major Hirata stopped being angry, and with a wave of his hand, ordered the convoy and soldiers to enter the city.
, he also sat back on the motorcycle and led the troops into the north gate of Weicheng.
After entering the north gate, Major Hirata sighed with emotion. After all, this is the headquarters of the division. The defense is extremely tight. The streets and rows are full of soldiers, with bayonets on their rifles, shining brightly.
As if to welcome the hard-working Major Hirata and his entourage and to express gratitude for the food he brought back, the soldiers on both sides of the street sounded the command. The soldiers all put their rifles on the ground, put their hands on their chests, and performed a military salute.
Major Hirata looked back at the team of his supplementary brigade. Every soldier seemed to be dozing off. They looked like a group of lax pigs, so he couldn't help but cursed "Pig!"
A second lieutenant on duty ran up, saluted Major Hirata and reported that he was from the baggage regiment. By order of the division and regiment headquarters, a camping ground had been arranged for Major Hirata's troops, and Major Hirata was asked to lead the troops to follow him.
After Major Hirata entered the north gate, he resumed his demeanor as a major of the Imperial Japanese Army. After listening to the second lieutenant's report, he suppressed his fatigue, put a smile on his face, and said politely, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
He waved to the second lieutenant to lead the way.
After the second lieutenant saluted, he ran to his motorcycle, got on the car and drove forward, with Major Hirata and his marching team behind him. After walking for only a few minutes, the team stopped, and the second lieutenant ran over and reported,
Colonel Toshiyuki Suzuki, chief of staff of the 108th Division, and Lieutenant Colonel Rukichi Kasutani, commander of the baggage regiment, came to greet the troops on behalf of the division commander. They will be there soon. Please order the soldiers to line up and wait for the arrival of Chief of Staff Suzuki.
As soon as Major Hirata heard this, all his sleepiness disappeared. He regained his energy. He immediately got off the motorcycle and ordered the troops to assemble and wait for the inspection by the Chief of Staff.
Major Hirata's order was still effective. The little devils immediately rolled off the carts, cars, bicycles, mules and donkeys and began to line up. Even the supplementary brigade stationed in Changyi behind them also started to line up.
.
At this time, a sudden change occurred. The soldiers lined up on both sides of the road to welcome them seemed to have suddenly received an order. They picked up their rifles with bayonets and rushed forward. The distance was too close, and the soldiers arrived in three or five steps, with bayonets shining brightly.
He went straight to the chests of Major Hirata and his soldiers.
Major Hirata saw the great changes taking place and knew that he had fallen into a trap. Weicheng was probably occupied by the Eighth Route Army. If Weicheng was still in the hands of the 108th Division, these soldiers would never attack his own troops with bayonets.
This Major Hirata is also very unusual. He has received very strict military training. At the critical moment, he took a sharp step back with his right foot, dodged the stabbing bayonet, yelled "Enemy attack, bayonet on", and then reached out and pulled out the bayonet.
Command the knife and start to resist.
Major Hirata's reaction was fast, which was not the same as the reaction of those dizzy soldiers who were too sleepy. They were lining up in a chaotic manner. Who would have thought that the imperial soldiers who were lining up to welcome them suddenly turned against each other and rushed forward with bayonets in hand.
Come up. As a result, many soldiers were stabbed down in a dazed state, and their blood spread all over the bluestone-paved streets.
By the time some of the Japs reacted and began to resist, the little Japs had already suffered heavy casualties in the first wave of bayonet attacks by the Eighth Route Army.
Major Hirata's eyes were red, and he cursed the division commander Shimomoto Xiongya ten thousand times in his heart. He didn't even let go of his old nest after being kidnapped, and just let his supplementary team jump step by step into the death trap. But no matter how many curses he cursed, it wouldn't matter.
It's useless. Only by breaking out of the encirclement can we report the truth about the fall of Weicheng to other troops and avoid greater losses.
Major Hirata was really good. He quickly retreated to a truck. Using the truck as a support, he directed the Japanese who were lucky enough to survive to move closer to him and form formations to stab him.
At this time, if the kid shoots directly, it will cause losses to the Eighth Route Army. At least it can stop the massacre of the Eighth Route Army and give the kid some breathing time. Unfortunately, the Japanese infantry drill says very clearly,
Not only are they not allowed to fire during the stabbing, they also have to eject bullets. On the one hand, this is to cultivate the soldiers' martial and bloodthirsty spirit. On the other hand, it is also because the 38-type bullets have strong penetrating power and are easy to accidentally injure their comrades. As a result, these soldiers who are protected by the military state
Not only did the Japanese soldiers who were deeply poisoned by doctrine not fire, but the soldiers who were lucky enough to survive were busy pulling out their bayonets from their belts and stabbing them hard. The coming and going wasted time, and the Eighth Route Army's bayonets were stabbed again.
Some of the devils.
The massacre continued, and the streets were filled with the sound of bayonets piercing flesh, the blood of the little devils flowing on the bluestone floor, and corpses covering the road.
Major Hirata's voice was almost hoarse from shouting, and the little Japs had no chance to form a formation in front of him. However, these Japs were all old Japs, well-trained, and when it came time to fight, their fighting power was still very strong. The Japs who were lucky to be alive
, formed a triangular formation in twos and threes, and began to confront the Eighth Route Army.
Since it was a hand-to-hand battle and an unexpected ambush, Wang Congyun participated in the battle from the beginning. He was tall and strong, standing there like a black iron tower, stabbing, teasing and prodding with a rifle, making him quick and powerful, and superb.
Five little Japs have already died under his bayonet.
Seeing Major Hirata resisting stubbornly while wielding his command sword, Wang Congyun rushed to his side.
Major Hirata was already desperate at this time, because he found that even three of his soldiers stabbed back to back, and they were no match for the Eighth Route Army.
Major Hirata has a lot of experience in stabbing techniques. He knows that the Chinese army's bayonet technique is called "Hua Ci" for short, and the movements are evolved from the traditional Chinese martial arts "marksmanship". It is fancy but not practical. The Japanese army's bayonets are called "Hua Ci" by Chinese people.
The Japanese thrust is mainly just a thrusting movement. It is simple and practical. It focuses on explosive power and speed. As long as you train every day, you will see the results in one or two seconds when stabbing. Therefore, all Japanese officers, including Major Hirata, believe that,
Hand-to-hand combat is the magic weapon of the Japanese army, which is invincible in the world.
While shouting for command, Major Hirata was wielding his sword to fight, and he did not forget to take a moment to observe the situation on the battlefield. He was a veteran, and he could tell at a glance. The Japanese soldiers shouted "Yeah, yeah, yeah, thrust", while the Eighth Route Army shouted "kill, kill"
, killing thrusts. Not only did the Japanese soldiers trick the left and stab the right, trick the right and stab down, and trick the lower and stab up, the Eighth Route Army also did it, and their eyes, hands, and feet cooperated better. Especially when it came to hitting and stabbing, the Eighth Route Army's movements seemed to be far beyond
He saw a Japanese soldier stabbing the Eighth Route Army soldier with his own eyes. The Eighth Route Army soldier calmly moved his left hand slightly forward to the right to suppress the Imperial soldier's rifle, and pushed the gun forward with his right hand fiercely. At the same time, the left
He stepped forward with his foot to the left, turned and stabbed the opponent. The whole movement was fast and powerful, and was done in one go. Major Hirata almost cheered when he saw it.
How could Major Hirata have imagined that the number of bayonets trained by the Eighth Route Army instructors would be the number of bayonets used by the People's Liberation Army in later generations? It was a tactic tempered by eight years of resistance and three years of liberation war. It was the basis for summarizing the bayonet tactics of the Japanese and Soviet armies.
Above, refined.
When Wang Congyun came to Pingtian, the guy was already a little crazy, waving his command knife and screaming wildly.
Wang Congyun took a good look. When Hirata's command knife was cut off, he quickly pushed the gun down and forward with his left hand. With the four fingers and wrist of his right hand, he pushed the butt of the gun upward and slammed Hirata's command knife with the right side of the bayonet seat.
He swung Hirata's command knife to the side, and then thrust the bayonet into Hirata's abdomen. At the same time, he pushed hard on the ground with his left foot, turned the gun to the left with both hands, and pulled out the bayonet in one go.
This hand-to-hand battle that took place near the north gate of Weicheng was actually a massacre. In addition to cleanly wiping out the two incomplete Japanese reinforcements with a total of more than 1,200 people who rushed into the city, it also verified that from the Red Eighteenth Regiment to
The power of the bayonet technique trained by the instructor. This is very important, because under Liu Yimin's deliberate request, the units of the instructor rarely bayonet with the little Japanese. Although the little Japanese later reacted and used his proficient bayonet skills to
Those soldiers who did not practice their tactical movements well brought harm, but the veterans all understood that their assassination skills were definitely better than those of the Japanese army, and their confidence became stronger.
When Wang Congyun and Wei Chunchuan reported to Liu Yimin that the battle was over, the Japanese 104th Brigade had already arrived at Ershilibao Airport east of Fangzi and started exchanging fire with the troops of the 1st Jiao Brigade who stayed at the airport.
