The Eighth Route Army was unable to completely wipe out the 27th Division in the end.
On the night of Double Tenth Festival, the Eighth Route Army Taixi Guard Brigade launched a large-scale move and surrounded Tai'an City. The Eighth Route Army Tai'an Detachment attacked Dawenkou Town, cut off the Japanese and puppet troops in Tai'an from Qufu and Yanzhou to escape in a hurry to Ciyao Town.
The connection between the puppet army. As long as Liu and Luo lead the main force to arrive, the 27th Division will definitely not be able to escape.
This was during the War of Resistance Against Japan, with traffic backward. Teng County was so far away from Tai'an, 300 miles. The infantry was exhausted a day and night and could not run away. The cavalry had to run for a whole day. The instructor only had the armored aircraft group to be able to travel at five or six.
Arrived within an hour.
In order to delay the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese guards sent engineers to lay mines on the road between Yanzhou, Qufu and Ciyao, in an attempt to affect the speed of the instructor's armored aircraft group.
This time, Liu Yimin personally led the armored group operation, including the fifty Japanese cars seized in Fei County, were used. In addition to tanks, armored vehicles, and motorcycles, 600 trucks were loaded with heavy machine gun regiments loaded with heavy machine gun brigades.
The Hejiao First Brigade, along the highway from Teng County to Tai'an, turned on the car lights and advanced like lightning.
Speed and time, these two things are what Liu Yimin needs most now.
If time is delayed, it will be useless even if the Eighth Route Army arrives under Tai'an City. In order to rescue the 27th Division, the Japanese army can completely concentrate all aircraft in North China and blow up a bloody road to cover the 27th Division to withdraw from Tai'an and escape
Returning to Jinan. In that case, it would be like regaining a large area of land in southern Shandong, but the main force of the Japanese and puppet troops escaped. This kind of war was very boring. Once the Japanese heavy army group arrived, most areas in southern Shandong would have to fall, which was equivalent to me
The army and the Japanese and puppet troops tug each other, so the people in southern Shandong will be seriously injured.
In order to ensure the speed of the march, Liu Yimin didn't even care about Sishui, Zou County, Lincheng, Jining, Qufu, and Yanzhou, where the Japanese and puppet troops had fled, and just ordered the cavalry brigade to divide their troops and command the county brigades and guerrillas that were active in these places.
Quickly occupy the county town, control the county town, and strictly prevent rogues and bandits from taking the opportunity to rob. Let Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong command the new 1st brigade, the new 4th brigade, the new 8th brigade, the artillery brigade, the air defense brigade, the engineering brigade, the baggage brigade and other division-level troops be followed
Following up and marched towards Tai'an in a separate way. Liu Yimin himself led Zhang Linfeng, deputy director of the Staff Department, and a few staff officers, a radio station, and got on the car and followed the teaching brigade to Tai'an.
Liu Yimin secretly hoped that the Japanese were a little bit able to defend the front line of Tai'an. In just two days, the main forces of the Eighth Route Army would all arrive at the city of Tai'an and wipe out the 27th Division and the Independent Mixed 16th Brigade.
On the night of October 10, just after the cold dew passed, there was no trace of cold dew on the southern Shandong plain. Except for the county towns, towns and people along the highways, the vast majority of people did not know about the Japanese and puppet troops.
The army has fled southern Shandong, and the vast fields are still dead.
Looking at the vast night, Liu Yimin silently calculated in his mind, calculating the forces that the Japanese army could mobilize when they were about to retaliate and sweep. After all, the biggest variable was that the Japanese army was transferred from the Kwantung Army to the pass. As long as the Kwantung Army was not as good as the pass, even if the Fifth Division returned
Shandong, after the 114th Division was rested and replenished, it could not change the current situation in Shandong's battlefield. If this continues, Shandong can be fully recovered within a year. Of course, this is just a conceivable idea, and the Japanese army will never be willing to fail.
Yes, Shandong probably has to go through another huge bloody test. At present, our army's situation is not good. The main force is dispersed into several pieces and cannot be chewed when it encounters the Japanese heavy army group. On the contrary, when the Japanese heavy army group arrives,
It is easy to be divided and surrounded by Japanese devils. Especially in the southeastern Shandong base, near the seaside, the terrain is smooth and suitable for Japanese troops to attack. Maybe the old boy Tada Jun is staring at this place!
In the night, Liu Yimin sat in the car, looking straight ahead, but was silently thinking about his thoughts.
The Eighth Route Army did not expect that the Japanese army would also start a mine war and buried mines on the road.
After receiving the report, Liu Yimin and Gaoyuan rushed to the front line of the team, Zhao Yonggang's second special war team, to check, and saw that three motorcycles were blown over. The soldiers on the car were either scratched by shrapnel or overturned.
Been injured by falling.
Zhao Yong was watching with a piece of mine fragment when he saw Liu Yimin coming and was busy reporting the situation.
Liu Yimin took the mine fragments from Zhao Yonggang's hand and saw that it was an ordinary mine, not an anti-tank mine, so he ordered the armored regiment to drive the heavy tank battalion up to open the way for the troops.
When the Eighth Route Army implemented the tactic of fighting south and pulling north, Fu Zhuting's New Sixth Brigade and Xu Shiyou's Luxi Guard Brigade captured Cang County, and moved the Japanese army's logistics supply base in Cang County empty, including 20 of which were seized from the latest Japanese troops.
Twenty heavy tanks and thirty Type 98 20mm anti-aircraft machine guns. All anti-aircraft machine guns are equipped with air defense brigades. 30 anti-aircraft guns are adjusted from the air defense brigade and several new brigades are equipped to deal with Japanese tanks. These twenty
A heavy tank and seized gasoline were transported from the Hebei-Shandong border to the southeastern Shandong base. Liu Yimin led the troops south to return north before he was placed in an armored regiment and built a separate heavy tank battalion.
At this time, the Eighth Route Army wanted marching speed, and heavy tanks could just play the role of minesweepers.
Because the Japanese army buried landmines, the march speed slowed down. It turned out that the motorcycle of the Second Special War Squadron, which was opening the road in front, retreated to the back. The armored regiment commander Zhao Dahe and political commissar Wang Ping commanded the tanks of the armored regiment to be lined up one by one, on the road
Opening the way for the entire army. In this way, the sound of rumbling tank motors is mixed with the sound of mine explosions from time to time.
At the beginning, Zhao Dahe and the others were afraid that the Japanese mines would blow up the tanks, just like teaching the teacher to use anti-tank mines to deal with Japanese tanks. However, after checking the explosion of several mines, Zhao Dahe was relieved.
After the command car, he loudly ordered to move forward at full speed.
When the Eighth Route Army armored clusters were lit up and appeared in the area of Ciyao Town with their headlights, it was already two o'clock in the morning.
From Teng County to Ciyao, the Eighth Route Army marched in mechanized for eight hours!
At this time, there had been a pot of porridge between Tai'an and the magnetic kiln.
The Japanese and puppet troops who fled from Yanzhou and Qufu to Ciyao Town originally planned to camp in Ciyao and rushed to Tai'an under the cover of the plane tomorrow morning. Because they ran too fast, too hurry and too tired, they had to stop.
Rest and rest. Besides, the magnetic kiln has strongholds and relatively complete fortifications under the control of the Japanese army. The Japanese army retreating north had a complete infantry regiment, as well as some of the artillery, engineers and baggage troops, plus the puppet army
With the pseudo-police and the pseudo-self-defense regime, the pseudo-rule forces of the pseudo-self-defense regime are also quite large. Relying on positions to defend is much less risky than marching at night.
From Feixian to Ciyao, let alone infantry, even the Eighth Route Army cavalry could not get away overnight, unless they ran all the horses to death. Moreover, the Eighth Route Army had just ended the battle in Feixian, so they could not catch up so quickly.
Even if the Eighth Route Army that had been moving around Tai'an, the Japanese army was not afraid. They had no artillery groups and chariots, and it was impossible for them to attack Ciyao Town, a Japanese army united to defend.
In Tada Jung, Iida Sadao, and Masato Honma, I want to come, Ciyao Town is safe tonight.
The gunshots of the Tai'an Detachment of the Eighth Route Army reoccupies Dawenkou awakened the Japanese and puppet troops in the Ciyao area. The commander of the infantry commander of the Japanese 27th Division, Suzuki Keiku immediately arrived at the Eighth Route Army to cut them off.
Contact the main force of the division in Tai'an and eat them in one bite.
Keiki Suzuki did not dare to neglect, so he immediately sent a report to the division commander Masako Honma, reporting the situation, and requested the main force of the division to go south quickly, attack the Eighth Route Army that captured Dawenkou, and responded to them heading north.
Masato Honma replied that the Eighth Route Army also appeared around Tai'an, and the main force of the division could not go south at night. He ordered Keihi Suzuki to occupy the position on the spot, defend firmly, and repel the Eighth Route Army's attack. As long as you persist until dawn, the aviation army can
Cover Suzuki Keihi's troops to safely head north and meet with the main force of the division.
Honma Masahosa also told Suzuki that the one who captured Dawenkou was the Tujiao Route Army that had been moving around Tai'an. It was well-equipped, but there were no cannon groups, no chariots or armored vehicles, so they could not attack the magnetic kiln.
It just cut off traffic and blocked the delayed Imperial Army to meet with the main force to get time for Liu Yimin, who was in southern Shandong. However, Fei County was too far away from the magnetic kiln, and there were aviation reconnaissance and bombing during the day, so it was impossible for the Eighth Route Army to march.
If you can move out at night, the main force of the Eighth Route Army will definitely not be able to get to the Magnetic Kiln for one night.
Keihi Suzuki believed Honma Masae's words and drove all the troops to the position, preparing to hold on until dawn before continuing north.
The Japanese need to defend, but the Eighth Route Army must cooperate, right?
Zhang Haitao, commander of Tai'an Detachment, left his own supplementary regiment, and the new regiment set up a blocking position on the Dawenkou line to block the Japanese army that might have been reinforced by Tai'an. Beijipo went south to reinforce, and he led three main regiments to pounce on Ciyao Town.
The Japanese surrounded him and both sides opened.
The combat effectiveness of the 27th Division of the Japanese Army was indeed unambiguous. Zhang Haitao commanded his troops to attack the town under the cover of night, but he could not attack. He had to calm down and surrounded it from the north, west and east. As for the south,
Zhang Haitao was not afraid. He knew that the most elite Eighth Route Army armored aircraft group in China was advancing towards the magnetic kiln. If the Japanese retreated south and just happened to hit them, they would die miserably.
When the galaxy river composed of lights of the Eighth Route Army armored cluster poured into the vicinity of Ciyao Town, Zhang Haitao knew that his mission had been completed, and the next step was to prevent the Japanese and puppet troops from escaping in the night.
Zhang Haitao immediately sent troops to contact the armored group that caught up and guided the armored group to launch an attack. At the same time, he ordered his three regiments to attack the Japanese army, sticking to the Japanese and puppet troops, so that they could not escape even if they wanted to.
At this time, it would be more difficult for the Japanese and puppet troops who fled from Yanzhou and Qufu to Ciyao to escape from their lives!
Ciyao Town is named after the ancient Ciyao site in the Tang and Song dynasties. In the seventh year of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Juping County was under the capital of Taishan County. During the Sui Dynasty, Juping County was incorporated into Ningyang County and still belonged to Taishan County. Here in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China
There are Taiping Town, Taipingbao and Juping Town. At this time, Ciyao Town Railway Station was still called Dongtaiping Station. Historically, Dongtaiping Station was renamed Ciyao Railway Station during the reconstruction in 1949. Now, since Liu Yimin traveled through time
Many geographical nouns that come from later generations are called names, and the name of Ciyao Town Railway Station is very distinctive and not easy to be confused with other places. The Eighth Route Army's reconnaissance system is used to using Ciyao Station instead.
Dongtaiping Station is here.
Ciyao Town has been an important transportation route since ancient times. There was one north-south post road in the Tang and Song dynasties, and two east-west Guanma Avenues in the Song and Yuan dynasties. Especially in the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, there were prosperous business and shops, which was an important part of the Beijing-East Road directly to Daming Prefecture.
The post station is called Zhongjing because it is located at the midpoint from Beijing to Nanjing. At this time, Ciyao Town is still a major transportation route. There are not only railway bridges and highway bridges on the Wen River, but also a stone bridge in the Ming Dynasty with a unique architectural style.
.
The four major landscapes of the ancient ferry of Wenshui, the ancient ferry of Wenkou, the thoroughfare of the avenue, and the gathering of merchants. The four major landscapes of the ancient magnetic kiln have long become people's memories under the iron hooves of the Japanese invasion.
After the Japanese army captured the Ci Kiln, due to the important traffic location here, it has always been a stronghold here. It is usually stationed by a squadron of the Japanese Jinpu Road Guard, and there are also pseudo-police stations, self-defense regiments, security teams and other pseudo-armed armed forces. The Eighth Route Army's Taixi Battle
Later, all the Japanese and puppet troops in the original Ciyao disappeared. Now, the Japanese and puppet troops in the Ciyao were re-stationed by the 16th Brigade of the Japanese Independent Mixed Brigade after Liu Yimin led his army south.
Originally, if Keiki Suzuki commanded the Japanese army to break through the siege, Zhang Haitao's Tai'an Detachment might not be able to stay. Because Keiki Suzuki had an elite infantry corps, an artillery brigade, several tanks and armored vehicles. However,
The Japanese army was afraid that the Eighth Route Army would be ambushed in the field by the Eighth Route Army at night, and they lost their chances. When the Eighth Route Army armored cluster caught up, the opportunity to break through was completely gone.
Just now, Liu Yimin, Gao Yuan led the Armored Regiment and the First Brigade of the Educational Brigade and the Heavy Machine Gun Regiment, and soon used the tanks of the Armored Regiment, the armored vehicles of the First and Second Corps as attack arrows to tear open the Japanese and puppet troops' defense line.
, began to divide the Japanese and puppet troops and surrounded them.
Keiki Suzuki is not a fool. He has experienced a lot of battles and knows how to fight. When he discovered the long Deng River in the Eighth Route Army armored cluster, Keiki Suzuki knew that it was in trouble and immediately ordered the artillery brigade to start artillery attacks and intercept the Eighth Route Army.
Is this a plain or an old battlefield of the Eighth Route Army? There is no need to send people to guide the Tai'an Detachment. Zhao Yonggang's Second Special War Squadron, the First Brigade's reconnaissance company and the reconnaissance platoons of various regiments all acted as the task of leading the troops forward. The huge Eighth Route Army convoy
The troops were organized and attacked in separate routes near Ciyao Town.
The Japanese army's artillery shells were fast, and the Eighth Route Army's tanks, armored vehicles, and cars were fast. The headlights made the four fields clear and clear, and the Japanese army's positions were clear. Tank guns, car-mounted machine guns and infantry cannons, mortars, and grenades on the cars behind them.
The barrels were fired while moving, and the iron stream rolled, pressing towards the Japanese positions, and soon began to divide and intersperse.
