As the follow-up troops of the *** Brigade continued to rush into the city, mortars successively occupied the high ground at the top of the city, and the fire points at the East Gate Urn City were removed one by one. The Japanese army's tenacious resistance finally collapsed like a burst dam.
This time it was the turn of the Chinese *** team to fire the flares. The Japanese army was extremely tenacious in fighting. Although the entire Japanese army east of Wanping City was divided and surrounded, they were in groups of small and five, relying on houses to fight with each other in the dark night.
The soldiers of the * brigade engaged in a bloody battle, which cost the Anjia Army soldiers who were eager to attack many men. They had no choice but to be patient and clear out the lone enemies from room to room to reduce casualties.
The firepower of the Anjia Army was reasonably configured. Each squad was equipped with submachine guns, pistols and other close-combat weapons. Therefore, although the Japanese officers and soldiers who lacked ammunition were extremely skilled in bayonet fighting, the Anjia Army soldiers did not give them this chance and always came close to use it.
There was a burst of submachine gun fire, and the little devil fell unwillingly into a pool of blood.
When Li Jun arrived at the county government office in the city with his special agent company, he was surprised to find that the place was empty and the courtyard was full of discarded paper scraps and garbage. Li Jun secretly screamed,
Immediately contacted the regiment headquarters through the walkie-talkie, and the anxious voice of the regiment leader Zhang Dakui came:
"The stubborn Hebian Zhengzo actually took advantage of our *** division to launch a general offensive from the east and south. He took more than 4,000 people and all the vehicles, used the four armored vehicles of his tank convoy to clear the way, and rushed from the west gate.
He went out and collided with the 37th Division that launched the attack. Because
The situation was in chaos, and our artillery was unable to help at all. After more than half an hour of fighting, we forced them to fight their way out and are now fleeing towards the Marco Polo Bridge. The brigade commander just called and ordered us to catch up to the river at all costs.
Border divisions, surround and annihilate them!"
Li Jun was a little surprised: "Aren't Shi Yousan's three brigades stationed on the line from Liuzhuangzi to Shaguo Village to the west of Marco Polo Bridge? I remember that before the war started, the division commander also issued an order through the theater headquarters, asking Shi Yousan to defend and block the Marco Polo Bridge.
, in order to annihilate the Riverside Brigade in Wanping City... If they flee there, aren't they looking for death?"
Zhang Dakui replied angrily: "How do I know so much? If you have the spirit to ask, why not immediately organize the three battalions we invaded the city and pursue the Japanese invaders one after another. Okay, I won't say any more.
We are about to set off with the model camp, you'd better catch up as soon as possible." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Li Jun shook his head, put down the transmitter and immediately ordered the correspondent and several soldiers to call for people, trying to gather all the troops in the shortest possible time.
...
Two hours ago, Liu Zhuangzi, the temporary residence of the Northern Hebei Security Command.
"Commander, the commander of the theater, Cheng Songgong, called us, asking us to immediately send troops to Marco Polo Bridge to repair the fortifications and prevent the riverside brigade from breaking out from us." Chief of Staff Cheng Xixian took a copy of the message and hurried over, lowering his head and staring at the map in a daze.
The three friends around me.
Shi Yousan, who is forty-six years old this year, can be called a contemporary Lu Bu. He rebelled against Feng three times, surrendered to Yan to overthrow Yan, surrendered to Chiang and rebelled against Chiang, surrendered to Zhang to challenge Zhang, and allied with the Communist Party.
The top leader among the rebels was "
He was hailed as a rebel general. The most despicable thing about this warlord leader who once attacked the Shaolin Temple, bombarded the city of Nanjing, robbed the Pukou Military Depot and turned against the Anjia Army was what he did in the summer of March 1st, which brought great consequences to the country and the nation.
brought serious disasters.
In 1930, Zhang Xueliang entered the border to help Chiang Kai-shek, locking the battle situation in the Central Plains melee. Afterwards, as a reward, Nanjing appointed Zhang Xueliang to take charge of the overall situation in North China. During the Central Plains War, he divided northern Henan and southern Hebei.
The three friends in the area were one of the important pillars of the anti-Chiang coalition. In addition, he had bombarded Nanjing City and sent troops to plunder the Pukou Military Station, forming a sworn enemy with the Anjia Army. Logically, it should have been disbanded.
among the list.
However, Shi Yousan won the favor of Marshal Zhang because of his "knowledge of affairs, advance and retreat". In the spring of 31, Shi Yousan was reported to Nanjing by the Marshal to be reorganized into the 13th Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and the entire army was expanded to more than 60,000 people.
The headquarters of the Ministry immediately stationed in Xingtai, an important town in Gyeonggi Province! At that time, there was a folk saying in Tianjin that
Pingjin and Tianjin are "half a stone under the Zhang Family". From this, we can see that Zhang Xueliang relied heavily on Shi Yousan, a fellow who was born in Nong'an, Changchun, Jilin, and had high expectations. However, the ambitious Shi Yousan was still greedy and wanted to take advantage of the situation.
Zhang Xueliang took opium and unintentionally plotted against the whole of North China.
In July of 2011, Shi Yousan, who was appointed by Wang Jingwei's reorganized government in Guangzhou, launched a mutiny and upgraded his divisions and brigades into nine armies, with the frontline directed at Peiping! After Shi Yousan's troops raised their troops, they were immediately attacked by the Central Army.
, the Northeast Army's north-south pincer attack was defeated in just ten days. The three friends escaped with their lives and fled to Dezhou, Shandong to take shelter in the northwest.
Under the command of Han Fuqu, an old friend of the army. Looking at the matter, Shi Yousan's act of overestimating his capabilities is a farce at best. However, the impact of this mutiny on China's national destiny is worse than itself! In order to deal with this mutiny, Zhang Xueliang was forced to
A large number of elite troops were mobilized from Liaoning, near North China, to join the war. This move directly and greatly weakened the
It reduced the overall garrison strength of the three northeastern provinces and caused a semi-vacuum in Shenyang, the center of Northeast China (with only two brigades of garrison strength left). This situation was no different in the eyes of the Kwantung Army, which always coveted the fertile soil of the Northeast.
God-given opportunity, then the September 18th Incident occurred. The Xingtai Mutiny planned and organized by Shi Yousan was the cause of the national disaster.
Huosuo, from this point alone, Shi Yousan will never atone for his sins! There is also a suspicion in the fourth hall: whether the mutiny by Shi Yousan was instigated and instigated by the Kwantung Army's secret service
Initiated by the Kwantung Army, the purpose of doing this was naturally to divert the tiger away from the mountain! But because there was no evidence, An Yi has been unable to attack his close friend.
Shi Yousan also knew about the bad relations between himself and the Anjia Army, the Northeast Army and even the Central Army, so in 1932, with the support of Doihara Kenji, he formed a traitor armed force in eastern Hebei. Later, after the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War in 1933,
, Jibei, who took office as the National Government with the help of the Communists,
The security commander has always seemed very low-key. After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, he was once ready to defect to the Japanese, but then the Anjia Army won the great victory in Langfang, which made him hesitate again. Until now, he has been shrinking in his lair.
Wait and watch the changes in the current situation to decide where you belong.
"Chief of Staff, do you think we should obey orders? Major General Hebian Zhengsan and we have met before. When I took office as the commander of security in northern Hebei, the Japanese worked hard behind the scenes. Now we will repay kindness with hatred, will we?
Will it be true to the facts?" Shi Yousan did not raise his head, his eyes were still staring straight at the Marco Polo Bridge on the map.
Wu Zhensheng, the commander of the Second Brigade, graduated from Huangpu and served in Hu Zongnan's First Division. He was assigned to a miscellaneous army as a brigade commander. He had long been dissatisfied. Hearing what his three friends said, he was full of slander - Feng Yuxiang, Chiang Kai-shek, and Yan Xishan.
, Zhang Xueliang, who is not kind to you? You are not a
How to avenge kindness? But he did not dare to show it, and asked hesitantly: "If we don't obey the order, will there be any problems? Now with the recovery of Wanping, the entire area around Beiping is controlled by the Anjia Army and the Central Army.
In the hands of the 29th Army, how can we gain a foothold here in the future?"
Cheng Xixian, who was the 13th Taibao of the Northwest Army with Shi Yousan, was not happy: "What are you afraid of? Didn't Brother Mingxuan assume the post of deputy commander of the theater with a high profile? As long as he is in North China for one day, both the Central Army and the Anjia Army will give us
To save face. At this time, it is best for us not to offend anyone and to stay out of the matter."
At this time, Shi Youxin, Shi Yousan's younger brother, hurriedly walked in from outside the door, looked around, took a few steps to Shi Yousan's side, and whispered in his ear.
Shi Yousan nodded slightly: "The chief of staff will stay, and the others will rush back to the army immediately and get ready and be ready!"
"yes!"
The first brigade commander Chen Guangran, the second brigade commander Wu Zhensheng and a group of staff members stood at attention and saluted, then turned and left.
Shi Youxin knew that Chief of Staff Cheng Xixian was also pro-Japanese, so he nodded and smiled at him, and then said to Shi Yousan: "Brother, I just came from Tianjin, and I have here a personal letter from Commander Xiangyue to you. Now it includes
Mr. Doihara is here
Many divisions of the imperial army are heading to China. The victory in North China is just a flash in the pan right now. You must not do anything stupid!" As he said that, Shi Youxin unbuttoned his shirt, revealing the many layers of dyed clothes wrapped around his waist.
Red spotted gauze.
Shi Yousan watched in surprise, only to see Shi Youxin carefully untied the gauze, loosening it layer by layer, and finally revealed the letter taped to his belly button. Shi Youxin thrust the letter into his brother's hand and said angrily: "There is no way, now in Peking
The imperial army is no longer in the area and surrounding areas, and there are many inquiries at various intersections.
Yan, I only managed to get through by disguised as a wounded soldier. Brother, why don't we follow the Taijun by the river and join the imperial army? Now four brigades of the imperial army are gathered in the area north of Juyongguan on the Pingsui Railway. Xiangyue
The commander promises that as long as you go there, I will at least give you the honor of being a division commander."
Cheng Xixian frowned: "Xiangyue Qingsi did not offer any other conditions? A division commander of the puppet army? This is too underestimated. I think back then, Brother Han Zhang had tens of thousands of troops and was a powerful force in North China. This promise
superficial......"
Shi Yousan opened the letter and read it. He pondered for a while and shook his head repeatedly: "No, no... No matter what, we can't be traitors now. Who knows where the situation will develop in the future? At least the Japanese army has not shown any
In the face of absolute strength, we should not act rashly. Now that the Sino-Japanese war has begun, it is said that Nanjing may not offer better conditions. As we lead the troops, we will naturally listen to whoever offers the best benefits!"
Shi Youxin was anxious: "Brother, if you keep cutting off, there will definitely be..."
Shi Yousan interrupted his brother's words and turned to Cheng Xixian: "Chief of Staff, please send me an order immediately. The first brigade will strictly guard the defense line of Shaguo Village and block the Japanese army's westward retreat. The second brigade will be transferred to Cui Village to prevent the Japanese army from flowing south.
...
...Chief of Staff, this time I have to trouble you to go there in person. Your *** brigade must rush to Marco Polo Bridge as soon as possible to repair the fortifications on the spot. The generals of the above ministries must stick to their posts and prevent the riverside brigade from passing through our defense area.
escape!"
Cheng Xixian rolled his eyes and immediately understood the beauty of Shi Yousan's arrangement, and accepted the order with a smile.
Shi Youxin looked at his brother in confusion, and Shi Yousan patted him on the shoulder: "Your strategy is a little bit worse. If we openly confront the central government, there will definitely be no good results. However, if our defense line is blocked by the Japanese army,
We broke through it openly and no one can fault us.
Yes. If you think about it, the Japanese army can only rush into our defense zone under one situation, that is, they defeat Feng Zhian's 37th Division. It stands to reason that even the 37th Division cannot stop the Japanese offensive.
, it’s only natural that we can’t beat all the other brands in this place, right?”
Shi Youxin nodded excitedly, and Shi Yousan said again: "Immediately take the engineering battalion to the pontoon bridge on the upper reaches of the Yongding River. I estimate that the riverside brigade will cross the river from there. As long as they are sent out as gifts, we will set off south immediately.
Go to Shijiazhuang and join Song Mingxuan. He is now the polished commander, and his subordinates
All four divisions were divided by Chiang Kai-shek, and it was the right time for us to join him. This time we secretly allowed the riverside brigade to be used. Although no one could find fault with us on the surface, the An Jiajun, who had always had a grudge against us, would definitely do so.
Take the opportunity to deal with us, and we won’t give him a chance to take action. As long as we have soldiers in our hands, who can do anything to me?”
Seeing Shi Youxin leave happily, Shi Yousan lowered his head again, carefully observed the map, and murmured: "In which direction will the war situation develop? I can't see clearly!"
...
The riverside brigade opened the way with the four remaining armored vehicles of the battle convoy, followed by more than 20 trucks with machine guns mounted on the front, and then more than 3,000 Japanese troops who howled like wild beasts, gathering into an unstoppable force.
As soon as the flood rushed out of the west gate, it collided with the soldiers of the Thirty-seventh Division who were bravely attacking the city.
The Japanese army concentrated its forces on one point and immediately broke through the 37th Division's linear offensive. It almost didn't stop at all and rushed quickly towards the Marco Polo Bridge.
After receiving an urgent report from the front line, Feng Zhi'an immediately dispatched a special agent group as a reserve force to block the gap, and quickly ordered all units of the 37th Division to return for reinforcements, striving to gather and annihilate the remnants of the Riverside Brigade in the area east of Marco Polo Bridge.
Under the control of a strong will to survive, the Japanese army quickly rushed to the last position deployed along the Yongding River by the 37th Division Special Agent Regiment.
Although the Japanese army had abandoned all their vehicles in the first few trenches, this did not weaken the Japanese army's combat effectiveness at all. Kawabe Masami took a telescope to observe the battlefield situation, and then sent a large group of Japanese troops to approach and attack, forcing the spies to
The regiment had to use all its light and heavy firepower to meet the enemy. Kawabe Shozo immediately put in two more squadrons to carry out flanking detours from both ends of the battle line.
Just when the defense line of the special agent regiment was under comprehensive attack and was in danger, the Japanese brigade attacking from the front quickly formed a wedge-shaped attack, using grenade launchers, light and heavy machine gun firepower, and infantry to alternately cover the advance. Under the bright flares in the sky, the Japanese army
The outstanding shooting skills of the infantry were fully demonstrated. During the attack, they killed a large number of officers and soldiers of the special agent regiment who tried to shoot at the Japanese army.
Moreover, the Japanese flank attack worsened the situation drastically, finally triggering the complete collapse of the secret service group's defense line.
If it were in the past, Kawabe Shozo would have definitely asked the detour troops to pull out several small units and then detour to the retreat route of the special agent regiment to conduct a surprise attack on the retreating stragglers. However, now that it is important to escape, he can't control so much. He gave the order.
, the remaining three thousand Japanese troops rushed towards the bridge in a chaotic manner.
