December 29, 1939 was definitely the most unforgettable day since Okamura Yasuji's life. He never thought that the good battle situation had developed to this point! Amaterasu!
In the 11th Army advance command post in Xianning, Okamura Yasuji sat in front of the map with his eyebrows frowned, watching Chief of Staff Major General Aoki Shigemasa leading two staff members to work on the map, according to the reports of the frontline troops.
Mark the enemy and us on the map.
After completing the work on the picture, Aoki Shigemaki turned around and said, "Your Excellency Commander, it seems that the Chinese army has laid a large encirclement!"
Okamura Yasuji didn't say a word and stared at the map in a daze.
Seeing that Okamura Yasuji did not speak, Aoki Shigemaki couldn't help but remind: "Your Excellency Commander, should you order General Inaba Shirou to command the follow-up troops to speed up the attack speed, break the Chinese army's defense line on the front line of the Laodao River, and directly face Changsha.
Launch an attack?"
This is not Aoki Shigemaki's stupidity, but he didn't know that the Chinese team had seen through the Japanese army's plans and wanted to close the net and surround. In his opinion, a 6th Division would attack if it wanted to attack and retreat if it wanted to retreat.
It can completely crush all attempts of the Ninth War Zone troops.
Okamura Yasuji was silent for a long time, then raised his head and said to Aoki Shigemaki: "Aoki Jun, since our army launched an attack, our army has continuously broken through the Xinyun River in the 9th China War Zone, the two lines of defense of Miluo River, and the troops are aiming directly under Changsha City.
, the great military power of the Great *** Empire has been promoted and the scheduled combat mission has been completed. I ordered the entire army to stop attacking, immediately alternate cover, withdraw the starting position and defend it. Order all the air force to be dispatched to cover the entire army to retreat."
Okamura Yasuji is worthy of being the first-class commander of the Japanese army. He is determined and neat, and he does not forget to cover himself with a fig leaf, saying that he has completed the scheduled combat mission.
Aoki Shigemaru was a little unwilling to give up and reminded: "Commander, our army only needs to withdraw from the Miluo River line, and there is no need to retreat to the starting position. As long as we withdraw from the north bank of the Miluo River, we can defend and advance and attack, the Chinese army only
Can sigh across the river."
Okamura Yasuji shook his head and whispered: "Execute the order! Remember, tell Nara-kun that he must cover the attacking forces forward to retreat to the north bank of the Miluo River, and then alternately cover and retreat quickly. Tell Uemura-kun that he still
Retreat from Dongting Lake. They took ships and were fast. After withdrawing from their starting positions, they had to quickly consolidate their positions and respond to the retreat of the 6th Division and the Nara Detachment. The 15th Division broke off from contact with the Chinese army and retreated quickly. First 0
The Sixth Division also withdrew its departure position, and was especially careful not to fall into the defense of the Chinese army."
Aoki Shigemaru's face was full of kinship, as if his biological father had died, and he turned around and wanted to send a telegram.
Okamura Yasuji called him again, thought for a while, and said, "Order all troops to retreat during the day and camp and defend at night."
Shigemasa Aoki understands this. He has air force cover during the day and has a high safety factor. Retreat at night and is easily attacked by the Chinese team, causing great losses.
In this way, Okamura Yasuji issued a full retreat order two days earlier than in history.
Okamura Yasuji's decision was decisive enough, but it was a bit late. You know, in history, when Okamura Yasuji ordered his retreat on October 1, Xue Yue was still in the dark, and it took a few days to go
After reacting, he ordered the pursuit. At that time, the main force of the Japanese army had basically retreated. The situation was different at this time. Liu Yimin told Xue Yue with confidence that Okamura Yasuji would take the initiative to order the retreat and ask him to prepare for the pursuit in advance.
.Who is Xue Yue? He was one of the generals who made the most contributions to the War of Resistance in history. Liu Yimin would naturally make corresponding arrangements for this point.
It was discovered that the Japanese plane was flying towards the front line of the Laodao River like crazy. Xue Yue thought at first that the Japanese army would concentrate their forces to attack fiercely. Later, he found that something was wrong. The Japanese who broke through the Laodao River turned around and retreated, and immediately understood Liu Yimin's
The judgment came true, the Japanese were going to run away.
In order to verify his judgment, Xue Yue ordered Chief of Staff Wu Yizhi to contact each unit immediately to see if the Japanese retreated on the entire line. As a result, the reports of different situations between the troops were different. The troops on the front line of the Laodao River reported that the Japanese were withdrawing back to the north bank of the Laodao River.
The 20th Army that monitored the 15th Division, but the 79th Army reported that the Japanese army was still launching an attack. The main force of the Japanese army captured Zhuxichang, and the main force entered the Changshou Street, Longmenchang, and Xianzhong area, and had an attempt to join the Japanese army in Pingjiang.
Luo Zhuoying's troops in the north reported that according to the order of Commander Xue, the 57th Division of the 72nd Army and the 74th Army were added, together with the 183rd and 184th Divisions, surrounded the 106th Division of the Japanese regiment in Ganfang, and both sides were in Ganfang.
The tug-of-war broke out in the Fang area, and the battle was extremely fierce. There is currently no sign of a Japanese army retreating.
Xue Yue still firmly believed in his judgment and believed that the Japanese army was going to retreat. However, it was afternoon, and Japanese planes were running around in the sky. Even though he knew that the Japanese army was going to run, he could not order the troops to pursue them. Japanese planes were waiting for the Chinese team.
Out of the head.
It was so dark that it was easy for me to wait until dark. Xue Yue gave the order and fought back on the whole line.
Now, all six divisions of the 15th Army ambushed on both sides of the Laodao River were dispatched, signal flares kept passing through the sky, and the sound of military trumpets echoed in the vast night, and they rushed towards the Japanese.
This was just the first wave. According to Xue Yue's order, the Fourth Army, which was deployed in Xiangtan, the 70th Army, which controlled the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Line, was transferred from Hengyang, as the second echelon of the attack, and was rushing towards the battlefield.
Once, the tiger-boy Xue Yue showed his power and he wanted to swallow the Japanese devils who invaded the south in one bite.
The 195th Division is destined to be the most dazzling star in the first battle in Changsha.
After the Fulinpu ambush, Qin Yizhi and Han Meicun rectified their troops and rushed to Jinjing to attack the Japanese army attacking Jinjing.
At this time, due to the Fulinpu ambush, a large group of Japanese troops were wiped out, and the Japanese planes ran around in the sky, and the traffic had been destroyed, the Japanese movement speed was limited, and our army's speed was also limited. Fulinpu to Jinjing one west and one east
It was basically a parallel line, about 30 miles away. The brothers of the 195th Division carried heavy machine guns and mortars, one deep and one shallow, and they also had to avoid Japanese air strikes. They walked very slowly. As a result, they were slow.
The benefit of slowness is that in the middle of the afternoon, the 195th Division encountered the Japanese army that was hit by our army in Jinjing in the area of the armor.
After receiving a report of the encounter between the search company and the enemy, Qin Yizhi and Han Meicun led two brigade commanders to observe in person. During this approach, Qin Yizhi laughed. The Japanese army had only about 700 people, and were heading northwest along the main road.
Xiangjia Town retreated, and two tanks were leading the way, with black smoke coming from their butts, and they were crawling on the road with difficulty. When they encountered a big pit, they had to take a detour. The slow speed was like a snail. It seemed that the Japanese were
We must go up the highway to move closer to the main Japanese army.
Han Meicun said: "If this person is lucky, the rabbit can run to the tree and hit him to death, waiting to pick it up. Commander, how about it? Fight!"
Qin Yizhi and Han Meicun both graduated from Huangpu and spoke rudely. But at this time, it was impossible not to think rudely! I saw Qin Yizhi's dark face shining with green light, his eyes were so bright, and he opened his mouth and said in a Guangxi dialect:
"Don't throw that mom! Fuck!"
It is not that easy to say that fighting is not that easy. The Japanese planes in heaven are not easy to mess with. As long as the 195th Division is not careful, it may become the target of Japanese planes. Brothers are not afraid of death, but they cannot die so stupidly.
After discussing with the two brigade commanders, Qin Yizhi and Han Meicun decided to send search soldiers to hang the Japanese from behind. Anyway, the Japanese march was not fast, so the entire division launched the attack and chased them to completely deal with the Japanese.
Before dark, Xue Yue's acting commander counterattacked the entire line at night, and the order to encircle and annihilate the Japanese was issued. Qin Yizhi said excitedly to Han Meicun: "Another Taierzhuang victory is about to be born! Our counterattack is from the elimination of the Japanese, the defeated Japanese.
At the beginning, this time, we will take revenge well!"
After finally waiting until it was almost dark, Qin Yizhi could no longer hold back and immediately ordered the entire division to launch a pursuit, pounce on it, bit the Japanese, and kill them.
This group of Japanese soldiers was also unlucky. When they attacked Jinjing, they were blocked by the Zhong*** team, and suffered heavy casualties. They also wanted to ask the captain for help and captured Jinjing in one fell swoop, but who knew that they received the order from the captain to quickly retreat and move closer to the main force.
.There was no choice but to withdraw his troops. However, the Chinese people were very devastated and destroyed all the highways and roads. Even the land was turned over and stepped on them, and they struggled! How could the marching speed be fast?
After dark, the Japanese captain was anxious. At this speed, it would take two or three hours to reach Xiangjia Town. If it encounters a blockade by the Chinese team, it will be troublesome. The Japanese captain immediately ordered the flashlight to be shot.
Go quickly towards Xiangjia Town.
At this moment, the brothers of the 195th Division quietly caught up from behind. They were all Chinese people, not so many leather shoes, they were all cloth shoes. Some brothers looked straight at the sight of the earth.
I dripped my cloth shoes, so I took off my shoes and started running barefoot. Not to mention, this trick really works. Soft land is suitable for barefoot, which is much lighter than wearing shoes.
The Japanese are running, and the 195th Division is chasing, and the goal is very clear, that is the light of the Japanese flashlight. This is a bit like a hunter chasing a rabbit.
When the Japanese army found something wrong, it was too late. The brothers of the 195th Division who ran away barefoot surrounded them from all directions.
In the dark night, there were only gunshots and grenades. When you see, you can see that the shadows around you seem to be all the Chinese team. The Japanese captain was so scared that he was so scared that he left a squadron to block the attack. He led the brigade to escape desperately behind the tank.
.
It’s okay to leave a squadron, but it’s only meat that’s eaten in your stomach. Qin Yizhi and Han Meicun are not greedy. They have already tasted the sweetness of the ambush in Fulinpu today and know that one chopstick is one chopstick.
The 195th Division concentrated the firepower of the entire division and greeted the Japanese's blocking squadron. The Japanese were just a squadron, and they didn't know whether there was a shortage of personnel. Even if their tactical movements were sophisticated and their marksmanship was accurate, how could a squadron be a division.
What's more, the 195th Division got a brigade of Japanese equipment, and its firepower was greatly enhanced?
It was not too much to destroy this Japanese squadron. The machine guns of the 195th Division were used in a concentrated manner and were shot against the ground. When cleaning the battlefield, I found that no Japanese had only one bullet, and at least three bullets were shot.
.
After destroying the Japanese squadron, the brothers of the 195th Division chased the retreating Japanese barefoot again.
That night, from Laodao River to the Miluo River, fierce fighting was everywhere. The sound of gunfire was sounding all night. The Shangcun Detachment and the 6th Division all went south to attack the Laodao River defense line. The Japanese were attacked.
I wanted to use the counterattack tactics to repel the counterattack of the Zhong*** team. Later I found out that the troops of the Zhong*** team were too large and it was impossible to fight the counterattack. In the end, the Japanese devils of the Sixth Division resisted
Unable to stop, he had to follow the railway and the highway to flee to the Miluo River. The Shangcun Detachment was even more straightforward and retreated directly to Yingtian, boarded a motorboat and whined and fled into Dongting Lake.
It was dawn that Shiro Inaba discovered that the 11th Brigade he sent to attack Changsha had almost lost half of its troops, which was equivalent to being disabled.
Shiro Inaba's heart was bleeding. You know, his 6th Division attacked the Eighth Route Army's return troops on Longhai Road last month, and the losses were huge. Just now, this time there were such a large casualties, which made
Where did he put his face?
After dawn, Japanese planes dispatched a large scale to cover the Japanese retreat. The Chinese team did not have air supremacy and could only rest during the day and waited for the pursuit to be launched at night.
At night, the Zhong*** team roared again and chased the Japanese and fought hard. The 11th Brigade hurriedly crossed the Miluo River, and fled north with the 26th Brigade.
The 79th Army, which was responsible for attacking the Japanese 15th Division, was very quick to move. He actually intercepted the Nara Detachment in Pingjiang and beat the Japanese up.
In this way, the Japanese army retreated during the day and the Chinese team chased at night. By October 2, the 195th Division had already chased the Xinyun River.
On the evening of October 3, the 195th Division took the lead and crossed the Xinjiang River and restored the Xinjiang River defense line. At this point, the first Changsha Battle was declared over.
Bai Chongxi, Chen Cheng and Xue Yue who received the report were overjoyed and immediately sent a report to Chiang Kai-shek for victory, saying that the victory of the Changsha Campaign ended, with more than 30,000 casualties in the Japanese army and more than 30,000 casualties in our army.
When the victory was reported, Chiang Kai-shek, he turned into more than 60,000 casualties in the Japanese army and more than 30,000 casualties in our army.
Chiang Kai-shek was so excited that if the Japanese army really suffered 60,000 casualties, the Ninth War Zone could directly take Yueyang and then recover Wuhan.
Soon, publicity for the Great Victory in northern Hunan was launched on the newspapers and radio stations. Chiang Kai-shek's congratulatory message was full of joy: "This Great Victory in northern Hunan is the country's excitement, which is truly a proof of the final victory, and the belief in the people, international audio-visual, and relationships are particularly
Great. Good and powerful, and good and profound.
***, National Government, ***, various democratic parties, important members of the National Government, and celebrities from all walks of life also sent congratulatory messages, and various condolences also came to Changsha. The donation for medical trauma to the wounded was as high as 340,000 yuan.
.Not only Xue Yue was busy holding a press conference, but also Guan Linzheng and other generals were busy holding a press conference, accepting interviews from reporters, and receiving representatives from all walks of life who came to express their condolences. Unfortunately, there was not a single article written in so many propaganda articles.
It seems that Liu Yimin has nothing to do with Liu Yimin.
Xue Yue's personality has a shortcoming, that is, he is excited as soon as he wins a battle, and he will suffer losses immediately. So, he was excited and did a stupid thing, which made Chief of Staff Wu Yizhi organize a group of people to fight at night.
The modern Peking Opera "New Battle with Changsha" was released, and then the rehearsal was stepped up. In the drama, Xue Yue wore a handsome helmet and handsome armor, with a horse boy in front and a big banner in the back. The word "Xue" was written on the banner.
The two-box suit holds the flag of "loyalty to serve the country" and regards himself as "Yue Wumu". Wu Yizhi wears a "Lun scarf" on his head, holds a "feather fan" in his hand, and wears a "Bagua clothes", and regards himself as "Zhuge Liang".
I was so excited that Chairman Jiang had forgotten his planning, the commander Bai and Commander Chen had personally visited the front line, and the soldiers were fighting bloody battles. As for Liu Yimin, he didn't even think about it.
Now, I have caused trouble. I don’t have to wait for Chairman Jiang to be unwilling, nor do I have to wait for Chief Bai. Commander Chen and the soldiers who fought bloody battles are unwilling. Wang Guanghai, Secretary General of Xue Yue’s Ninth War Zone, was unwilling. On the night of the audition
, after watching it, she threw her sleeves away, which made Xue Yue and Wu Yizhi very embarrassed. The best show was that they could not be performed, and the two of them shirked each other. Xue Yue said that this was done by the Chief of Staff and had nothing to do with him. Wu Yizhi said that he did it.
It's true, but with the commander's approval.
No matter what, people can understand that they make jokes, because the victory in northern Hunan is real. Since the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japan, this was the first time that the Japanese army had to work hard on the front battlefield. After losing their troops and losing their generals, they fled across the board and fled back to their starting positions.
Even the front line was pushed forward for a meter. The joke could not cover up the halo of victory above Xue Yue's head.
The first battle in Changsha in history, to be fair, China and Japan only fought a draw. *** announced that more than 30,000 Japanese casualties were killed and more than 40,000 of our casualties. The Japanese announced that the elimination of the 48,000 Chinese team was eliminated.
Thousands of people, 3,580 casualties were killed and killed by themselves. Of course, China has the element of exaggerating the results of the war, and the Japanese side is suspected of concealing casualties. But in general, the initiative in the battlefield is in the hands of the Japanese army. If you want to attack, you can retreat. Xue Yue, you can retreat.
The Tianlu tactic was only half successful. He just led the Japanese army to the border of Changsha. The Japanese army just looked at Changsha and waved their hand to retreat. When Xue Yue came back to his senses and ordered the pursuit, the Japanese army had already retreated.
Crossing the Miluo River. It is precisely because of this that Okamura Yasuji believes that he is the winner in his memoirs.
This time it was different. The Japanese army was like the wedding night of a sour scholar, who was overly excited and frivolous. As soon as they entered the port, they were in full swing. Their vanguard troops had just broken through the Laodao River and fell into the ambush circle.
Okamura Yasuji was alert and retreated in a hurry. *** immediately launched a counterattack, chasing, and the Japanese could not stand firm and fled all the way, and the casualties were greatly lost. Moreover, due to the advance counterattack, the positional war was reduced,
**'s casualties have indeed decreased.
Just as *** was celebrating happily, the Japanese army also announced the damages in the battle between Hunan and Jiangxi, saying that 38,000 Chinese troops were eliminated and 8,600 of them were lost. This number is related to the Japanese army's history.
Compared with the figures, the loss of *** was 10,000 less, while the loss of the Japanese army was 5,000 more. To be honest, the credibility is relatively high.
In the entire battle, the 106th Division was the best performer in the Japanese army. These Japanese soldiers, under the siege of Luo Zhuoying's troops, opened a counterattack, tore open a hole in the encirclement, and returned to Wuning defense in a calm manner.
