At 3.40 am on July 30, the main force of the Japanese river brigade suddenly turned to the south, attacked Wanping County, and concentrated more than 30 artillery to the city of Wanping City and the city gate for up to ten minutes.
At 4:30 in the morning, Wanping City fell, and the thirty -seven divisions of the three battalions were killed by the three battalions of the four battalions.
Bixi Manor, Changyang Town, Fangshan, the front line of the 77th Army.
In the morning light, the four off -road vehicles were difficult to drive along the east side of the railway line bombarded by the Japanese machine. The pits that were deeply trapped along the way still emerged repeatedly. The broken rails were twisted.
The pillow wood is lying around the scorched road.
An Yi on the car silently looked at the desolate scene after the raging war along the way. He didn't say a word. He didn't think about the loss of the air force of Zhou Zhirou at this moment, but how to form a unified opinion with the general leader of Feng Zhi'an who was about to meet.
Together with Feng Wei'an, the generals of the 77th Army, came to the gate of the manor early to welcome the arrival of Anyi.
According to the latest orders of the Central Military Commission, the newly established 77th Army united the 37th Division and the 1st 32nd Division, and was approved to form the 79th Division.
The army was adjusted, and the former chief of staff of the teacher Zhang Lingyun was promoted to the chief of the military ginseng.
Original independent 25 brigade, independent 28th brigade and one of the directly -affiliated special agents, formed the first seventy -nine division, the teacher was the general of the general Ji Jizheng, the former head of the 29th regiment Ji Xingwen promoted the deputy division of the 179th division.
At this moment, Feng Wei'an is the same as An Yi. He was thinking about the same thing. He and his more than a dozen officials who were promoted to His Majesty was very surprised and uneasy about the sudden arrival of An Yi.
The identity, the hard work of the decades, and the unattended rights and prestige in the national army generals, just the secret juncture is just here, it indicates that a war is about to start. This seems to be no doubt
Looking at the war over the years, whether it is the Great Wall Anti -Japanese War or the Shanghai Anti -Japanese War, as long as An Yi comes to the front line, it will soon cause large -scale military operations and fierce warfare. Besides, An Yi is secret this time, and it comes so quickly.
Following Feng Wei'an, the deputy commander of the 17th Army Yang Guan and his deputy officer.
On the second day after the end of the battle of Langfang, Hu Jialin, commander of the Fifth Army, requested that he stepped down as the commander of the Seventy Army. The Central Military Commission quickly made a decision.
Deputy Army commander Lu Yixuan successfully appeared on the throne of the 17th Army, and Yang Guan, the independent division commander, was promoted to the deputy commander, and he still served as the position of independent division.
Looking at the four off -road vehicles that are getting closer and closer, the schools behind Feng Zhi'an whispered, and they were deeply surprised by An Yi's light cars. Usually the old chief Song Zheyuan and others came to inspect.
No less than one battalion, it is now the war. The entire front line of Fangshan to Daxing was bombed by Japanese aircraft yesterday. An Yi, who was high -weight, only brought four off -road vehicles and traveled more than 100 kilometers long distances.
Is he or not?
A school officer rushed across the courtyard of the manor and came to Feng Zhian, his chest heaving and his face turning pale: "Reporting to the military seat, Brigadier Sun of the Second Security Brigade sent an urgent message. At six o'clock in the morning, Commander Wei Lihuang led the two main forces of the 14th Army.
Division, suddenly attacked the 11th independent Japanese brigade in Changping. The initial progress was smooth, and they defeated two Japanese fronts.
At one point, they reached the foot of Changping City, but the Japanese army quickly stabilized their position. The Japanese Seventh Mixed Brigade stationed in the Koryo Camp quickly joined the battlefield and launched a fierce attack on the left wing of the Fourteenth Army. The Fourteenth Army retreated steadily and has now retreated to the south entrance.
Along the railway line south of the station, we were struggling to support ourselves, so the Chief of Guard sent someone to ask Brigadier Sun to lead his troops for support."
"What? For such a big matter, the 14th Army didn't inform us beforehand?"
"That's not right. General Junru (Wei Lihuang) has always been calm and steady, how could he make such a foolish move?"
Before Feng Zhian could speak, the generals and generals of the 77th Army around him were already agitated, whispering among themselves.
Feng Zhi'an thought for a moment and looked at Yang Guan. Yang Guan shook his head apologetically and said that he didn't know what was going on. Seeing that An Yi's convoy was within a hundred meters, Feng Zhi'an temporarily put aside the war at Nankou and whispered
He reminded his generals to cheer up and line up in order again.
The convoy slowly stopped ten meters away. A group of fully armed guards quickly jumped out of the car and dispersed in all directions. Yang Guan quickly stepped forward to greet everyone before they could react. Feng Zhian thought for a while and took the initiative to move forward.
The group of generals behind him felt a little uncomfortable when they saw this, but An Yi jumped out of the car and strode over. Bearded Hu Jialin and Major General Liang Yuan walked quickly after An Yi.
An Yi and Yang Guan saluted each other, strode to Feng Zhi'an, and saluted: "General Feng, An Yi came uninvited. I hope the general and all my colleagues will show their understanding!"
"Where is it! I have admired the reputation of Chief An for a long time and have been looking forward to seeing his heroic figure for a long time. The delay in the news has caused a loss of welcome. I hope Mr. An will forgive me."
When Feng Zhian saw An Yi taking the initiative to salute and greet him so enthusiastically, the unhappiness in his heart had long since disappeared. After returning the military salute, he immediately stretched out his hands to shake hands with An Yi tightly, and then met the familiar Hu Jialin and turned around to introduce him.
own subordinates.
Zhang Lingyun, He Jifeng and other generals of the 77th Army saw that An Yi had no airs at all. He was wearing the same wartime uniforms as the officers and soldiers of the An family. His young and handsome face was filled with a sincere smile, and he naturally showed a kind of affection for others.
He was polite and respectful, without any of the hypocritical politeness and pretentiousness of the superiors. He immediately looked at An Yi with admiration. After bowing respectfully, he couldn't help but stretched out his hands to shake An Yi's hand.
After the meeting, An Yi explained to Feng Zhian: "General Feng, the battle at Nankou has begun. General Wei Lihuang's troops successfully contained the two Japanese brigades, laying the groundwork for General Tang Enbo to command the Thirteenth Army to secretly go south to attack the Japanese army.
Basics, half an hour ago, I picked up Tang Enbo on the road
According to the general's battle report, the two main divisions of the Thirteenth Army have successfully moved to the Changling line behind the Japanese army. The supplementary division has entered the northwest of the battlefield and has joined forces with General Wei Lihuang's headquarters to launch a counterattack. The war has now entered a fierce state.
It is estimated that there will be a result within three hours.
"The entire battle plan for this battle came from the General Staff Headquarters, and was personally issued by Chairman Chiang Kai-shek and Vice-Commander Bai Bai. Five main divisions and two supplementary divisions of the two armies were mobilized. A total of more than 80,000 soldiers participated in the battle. It can be said that
It is called a battle. For the sake of confidentiality, other departments except the combat troops were not notified, including the 17th Army. I also ask General Feng and everyone to forgive me!"
"ah……."
"This is the case ..."
"The Japanese have more tricks, and there are many spies. Be cautious is also ..." "
The general was surprised, sighed, Feng Zhi'an moved his heart, and immediately guessed An Yi's purpose of this, he tried slightly, and made a posture.
If it is good, I am afraid that it will be our army to fight. "
An Yi and Hu Jialin looked at each other, haha smiled, apologized to say a few words, then poured the school into the yard with Feng Wei'an and others, and walked towards the main hall built by the gray tile green brick.
When I came to the hall, Feng Wei'an raised his hand and shouted: "See tea-"
An Yi quickly waved his hand: "Don't be busy, don't be busy, let's look at the map first."
Feng Wei'an was not polite when he heard it. He quickly asked An Yi, Hu Jialin and Fang Pengxiang to come to the map, and refers to the map: "Please instruction of Chief An."
"No instructions, only the request, let the director Hu Jun say, this operation is mainly initiated by the seventeenth army independent division and General Feng's department, I will not be too ridiculous." An Yi shook his head, very low -key way
Show your own modesty.
Feng Wei'an and Zhang Lingyun, the three of He Jiyuan were slightly froze, and then looked at the map together.
"Is it playing Wanping?"
Zhang Lingyun deserves to be the chief of staff of the Seventy -seventh Army. He has an old -fashioned vision. He immediately judged the general situation through the position of the headquarters and independent divisions.
"Yes! It is to hit Wanping. Not only must you hit Wanping, but he also strives to wipe out the river brigade and give the Japanese a horse." Hu Jialin was no longer polite, and when he came forward, he opened up a car.
Feng Zhi'an hesitated slightly, looked at the map carefully, and then turned to Hu Jialin after a while: "Brother Hu, do we need to contact Daxing's 38th Division?"
Hu Jialin shook his head and pointed to the map: "For the time being, it is not necessary.
The strength of the seven divisions and independent divisions has reached 32,000 people. In addition, the 13th and two divisions of Nanyuan responded to Nanyuan.
"Please see ... At present, the 17th Division of my Fifth Army has firmly occupied Langfang, and the 40th Division guards the main traffic channel of Wuqing to Langfang.
The side of the two divisions basically blocked the road of Tianjin Japanese army to rescue. The front line of Daxing only needs to prevent the Japanese army strictly prevent the Japanese army. However, due to the Japanese reinforcement troops, the sources are continuously via Shanhaiguan and Qinhuangdao to enter the Pingjin battlefield.
Two and two divisions of the 29th Army and four security brigades are very heavy. Wanping, Fengtai to Nanyuan's front line does not need to trouble them anymore.
The road is the greatest support for us. "
"Chang Guan's meaning ... Do you want to wipe out the river division?" Zhang Lingyun widened his eyes, and it was difficult to believe to look at Hu Jialin.
Hu Jialin nodded resolutely: "The requirements of Chairman Jiang and the General Student Department are this, but the meaning of Chief President Bai and Chief An -the three divisions of the two armed forces of our two armies were dispatched at the same time, with the most violent offensive and the most.
Fast speed, destroy Changxindian and west of Lugou Bridge in one fell swoop, the Japanese army south of Nanyuan, and finally surrounded Wanping City. "
Feng Zhi'an took a deep breath: "Brother Hu, just tell me clearly, how do we, the 77th Army, fight this battle?"
"Before dawn, two brigades of General Yang Guan's independent division will arrive at Wangzuo Town, including the mechanized heavy artillery regiment directly under the Seventeenth Army. They will attack Changxindian and then attack the Japanese troops stationed in Fengtai. I plan to make the independent division independent
The brigade is under full command of Brother Feng, and General Yang Guan needs to go to the west to command the other two brigades." Hu Jialin replied politely.
Feng Zhian and his two deputies were stunned again. They all knew that the independent brigade where the famous model battalion is located in the army has more than 8,000 people and has its own artillery battalion, mortar battalion, machine gun battalion and all-round troops.
The Army's leading engineering battalion, although the Independent Brigade is a brigade in name, its equipment and the quality of its officers and soldiers are far superior.
For any Category A division in the country, it can be said that its combat effectiveness is even far higher than that of the 37th Division. Now, Hu Jialin generously handed over the independent brigade to his command, and also put Yang, deputy commander of the 17th Army and commander of the independent division, under his command.
Guan was transferred to the left wing to command the battle, which undoubtedly brought a great military success to him, and it was also a kind of brotherly trust.
An Yi saw Feng Zhi'an looking at each other, speechless. He couldn't help but smile and said in a low voice: "Everyone, the most difficult thing is actually not to attack the Japanese army in Changxindian and Fengtai, but to quickly encircle and possess a Japanese army."
Artillery brigade and a dozen Type 92 cavalry
Wanping City with chariots. If there is not enough firepower, it will be difficult to drive all the Japanese troops into Wanping City. Even if it can be done, it will require a lot of sacrifices. So, please don’t be polite, General Feng and everyone. Everyone.
We are brothers, there is no need to say any kind words."
At this time, Feng Zhi'an and the generals of the 70th Army were really moved. Feng Zhi'an no longer shied away, nodded and readily agreed, took the secret order signed by Chiang Kai-shek from An Yi, and immediately began to mobilize the troops.
Half an hour later, Feng Zhi'an led a group of generals who were confident and eager to fight and sent An Yi, Hu Jialin and others outside the courtyard. Feng Zhi'an held An Yi's hand tightly and asked in a low voice:
"Brother An, we can all see that the Battle of Nankou was a conspiracy, and the Battle of Wanping was a conspiracy. May I ask Brother An, what is your next strategy?"
An Yi thought for a while and replied: "It's still a conspiracy... Until now, all our strategic intentions have been hidden from the Japanese army in the Battle of Nankou. The most uncomfortable thing in the next two days is not the Western Front we are facing.
and the Northern Front, but the Eastern Front battlefield. As long as we can finish the battle before this evening,
After successfully encircling Wanping City before, the Japanese army will launch a fierce attack on Langfang and Daxing. The 17th Army and General Zhang Zizhong’s 29th Army will be very difficult. I will rush to Jinghai today to meet with the two old men Wan Fulin and Pang Bingxun.
Let's meet the general and see if we can attack Tianjin again."
Feng Zhi An nodded sincerely: "Understood! Now I understand everything! General An, please rest assured that our army will go all out and will never let down the commissioners and the people of the country!"
