Chapter 180 The golden cicada escapes from its shell
Two hours after the fall of Zaozhuang, the main force of the 6th Independent Mixed Brigade led by Major General Tubei finally arrived. Unfortunately, the Baoshan Brigade had already evacuated Zaozhuang. In addition to the ruined city and the Japanese corpses scattered everywhere,
, the 6th independent mixed brigade did not even see the shadow of the national army.
Ten minutes later, two combat reconnaissance planes hurriedly returned from the Wuhan front line and flew over Zaozhuang.
Just this morning, the Japanese army concentrated in North China, and the aviation regiments of the two strategic front armies in central China launched an unprecedented aerial decisive battle with the Chinese Air Force over Wuhan. Although the Chinese Air Force received strong support from the Soviet Air Force to aid China, the Japanese army jointly
The Aviation Corps still achieved a decisive victory!
In the end, the Soviet Union's air force aiding China was completely destroyed, and the Chinese Air Force also suffered a devastating blow!
After this air battle, the Nationalist Government completely lost its air supremacy, and the entire airspace of Wuhan and even China was completely opened to the Japanese aviation corps. From then on, Japanese reconnaissance planes could fly wherever they wanted, and Japanese bombers could bomb wherever they wanted.
Wherever the bombing goes, the Nationalist government will no longer be able to defend its own airspace.
Two combat reconnaissance planes returning from the front quickly discovered the traces of the national army.
Through the radio caller, Major General Tsuchiya Hyōma, commander of the 6th Independent Mixed Brigade, quickly contacted the combat reconnaissance aircraft in the sky. The pilot of the combat reconnaissance aircraft, Captain Beicang Takeru, reported that the Chinese army was approaching 20 kilometers northeast of Zaozhuang.
Near Beizhuang, we are quickly turning along the country road towards the Shandong Mountains.
"Mountain area in central Shandong?" Major General Tuwu's soldiers and horses said ferociously, "Want to defect to Sun Lianzhong?"
"Order!" Major General Tsuchiya Bingma roared into the walkie-talkie, "The aviation force continues to guide the escape direction of the China Army!"
Putting down the walkie-talkie, Major General Tsuchiya suddenly turned around and said to the Chief of Staff: "The 5th Battalion immediately seizes Fei County and cuts off the Chinese army's escape route to the north. The 1st and 2nd Battalions continue the pursuit under the guidance of the aviation force! And immediately go to
The Second Army Headquarters and frontline command post reported the latest situation in Zaozhuang."
"Hai!" The chief of staff lowered his head suddenly and immediately took the order and left.
…
Jining, Japanese frontline command post.
Major Yunzi Minami walked into the war room with a solemn expression. He immediately put his feet back and stood at attention, saying to Major General Suzuki: "Your Excellency, General, an urgent message has been sent from the 6th Independent Mixed Brigade. Zaozhuang County has been breached by the Chinese army. The garrison gendarmerie
The collective was shattered, and most of the Seventh Regiment of the Imperial Association Army and the plainclothes team were wiped out!"
"Baga!" Major General Suzuki said angrily, "Trash, loser!"
Of course, Major General Suzuki was angry. He originally expected to annihilate the remnants of Yue Weihan's Baoshan Brigade at the foot of Zaozhuang City, but he never expected that without waiting for the various Japanese troops to attack in Zaozhuang County, Zaozhuang County would be destroyed by the remnants of the Baoshan Brigade.
After taking it down, how can we still fish if the bait is eaten by others?
"General, calm down." Nan Zao Yunzi said, "Although the remnants of the Baoshan Brigade succeeded and looted a large amount of supplies from Zaozhuang, they were not able to run too far. The aviation force had already discovered them and they could no longer run away! Independence!
The mixed 6th Brigade is now chasing them, and it will take up to four hours to catch up and destroy them!"
As soon as Nan Zao Yunzi finished speaking, another major staff member hurriedly came in and reported loudly: "General, the 1st Independent Motorized Infantry Brigade rushing to aid Zaozhuang along the Teng-Zao Highway was ambushed by the Eighth Route Army guerrillas and the Yanzi Army near Heifengkou.
After half an hour of fierce fighting, more than 500 people from the 1st Independent Motorized Rifle Brigade were collectively crushed to pieces!"
"What?" Major General Suzuki suddenly changed his expression, "The 1st Independent Motorized Rifle Brigade was collectively shattered!?"
This time greatly exceeded Major General Suzuki's expectations. The Eighth Route Army guerrillas led by the Communist Party actually joined forces with the Yanzi Army to ambush the imperial army at Heifengkou? The ambush was caused by the independent 1st Motorized Infantry Brigade that rushed to reinforce Zaozhuang? Could it be said that the Eighth Route Army guerrillas
The Yanzi Army has already coordinated with the Baoshan Brigade. Are they fighting together?
Thinking of this, Major General Suzuki's face suddenly became gloomier than ever before.
If the Eighth Route Army of the Communist Party, the Baoshan Brigade of the Kuomintang and the "Yan Zi Army" of Lunan gangsters really join forces to fight against the imperial army, then the situation in Southern Lunan will really not be optimistic. Thinking of this, Major General Suzuki immediately ordered the major staff officer: "
Telegraph to the 6th independent brigade that the Baoshan Brigade must not be allowed to escape this time!"
"Hai!" The major staff officer suddenly lowered his head and immediately took the order and left.
…
Eighty miles northwest of Zaozhuang.
On the mountain road to Feixian County, more than a thousand Chinese troops were marching forward in a chaotic manner.
Suddenly, there was a huge roar of engines in the sky. Immediately, a Japanese reconnaissance plane emerged from the thin clouds, circled in the sky twice and then swooped down towards the Chinese army.
The army immediately dispersed like birds and beasts, and rushed into the dense forest on both sides of the path.
"Don't run! Anyone who runs will be shot to death! The machine gun is ready..."
Liu Tiezhu gave the order, and the machine gunner behind him picked up the Czech style and began to sweep wildly. The dozen or so national army deserters who were the first to flee into the woods immediately fell into a pool of blood.
The remaining national troops immediately fell into silence and no longer dared to act rashly.
Liu Tiezhu jumped onto the boulder on the side of the road and said with murderous intent: "Listen carefully to me, no one is allowed to yell, let alone run away, please just run forward obediently, hurry up!" Zero!
The special operations team members standing scattered on both sides of the path quickly raised their submachine guns and roared, "Run, don't stop!"
More than a thousand national troops quickly quickened their pace and ran into the woods in a chaotic manner.
Captain Pang Hu stepped forward and said to Liu Tiezhu: "Captain, it's almost time."
Liu Tiezhu looked up at the sky and shouted: "Order, each team will leave one by one and prepare to move!"
"Yes!" Pang Hu, Cao Shangfei and another team leader Hu Zhijun agreed and immediately took the order and left.
Soon, more than sixty special operations team members who were holding more than a thousand national troops and marching forward quickly disappeared into the dense forest next to the mountain road. As the national soldiers were running, they suddenly found that the group of "fierce gods" around them were missing, so they
They all stopped, and several superior soldiers bravely walked out of the queue, wondering: "Hey, the national army is missing?"
"Grandma, what's going on? The national army doesn't care about us anymore. Where did this song come from?"
"Who cares where he came from? This is a great opportunity to escape. If you don't leave, I will leave."
"Yes, yes, the fourth child is right. While the national army is not around, it is important for everyone to split up and run for their lives."
The idea of escape was immediately approved by all the national troops. In a short time, the national troops dispersed and prepared to flee for their lives. However, before they could put their escape plan into action, the sound of rustling footsteps suddenly sounded all around.
Immediately, thousands of Japanese soldiers emerged from the woods with bayonets in hand.
…
Outside the mountain, Major General Tsuchiya calmly stepped out of the armored car.
According to the report from the aerial reconnaissance aircraft, the Chinese troops escaping from Zaozhuang were in the woods ahead. Three infantry brigades that were independently formed into the 6th Brigade had surrounded the mountainous area. 12 search teams from the 2nd Infantry Brigade had already
A rigorous search was launched into the mountain, and the Chinese army was already unable to escape!
Major General Tsuchiya even couldn't wait to see Yue Weihan's expression after he was arrested.
Although Major General Tsuchiya had never met Yue Weihan in person, he had long heard about his deeds. His hands were almost covered with the blood of the warriors of the Imperial Army, including two lieutenant generals and several major generals. As an individual,
The damage this person caused to the Imperial Army of Japan and the Empire of Japan was absolutely unprecedented.
But such a talented and amazing person is about to become his prisoner today!
Thinking of this, Major General Tsuchiya couldn't help but look proud. With this military achievement, he would be qualified to be promoted to Army Lieutenant General, and he might even serve as the division commander of the newly formed field division!
Major General Tsuchiya was having a sweet dream when Major General Koga, the Chief of Staff, walked up angrily.
"General!" Major Koga suddenly put his feet back and stood at attention, and said to Major General Tsuchiya, "The search team reported that those surrounded in the mountains are not the remnants of the Baoshan Brigade, but the remnants of the 7th Regiment of the Imperial Association Army originally stationed in Zaozhuang!"
"What?" Major General Tsuchiya suddenly changed his expression, "The 7th Regiment of the Imperial Association Army!?"
"Hai!" Major Koga lowered his head suddenly and said, "General, we have been fooled!"
"Baga!" Major General Tsuchiya suddenly drew out his saber and chopped down a small tree as thick as a bowl next to him.
Major Koga said solemnly: "General, what should we do now?"
"Immediately report the situation here to the Second Army Headquarters and the frontline command post truthfully, and then return to Zaozhuang and search for the whereabouts of the remnants of the Baoshan Brigade from the beginning. As for the remnants of the 7th Regiment of the Imperial Association Army in the mountains..." Major General Tsuchiya said this
There was a pause, and then he roared with a ferocious face, "Everyone is dead, dead..."
"Hai!" Major Koga lowered his head suddenly and immediately took the order and left.
…
Ten miles west of Zaozhuang, there is a straw valley.
Li Yulong said to Yue Weihan with admiration on his face: "Prince, your move to escape from the golden cicada's shell is really amazing!"
Chu Zhongtian also said: "It's time for the little devils to chase them hundreds of miles away. By the time they find something wrong and turn back, we will probably have returned to Weishan Island, hahaha..."
Li Yulong pointed to the puppet army uniform on his body and said: "Brigade seat, can you peel off this dog's skin?"
"No peeling!" Yue Weihan said coldly, "From now on, our Baoshan Brigade will wear dog skins like this!"
"What?" Li Yulong shouted, "Sergeant, we are directly affiliated with the Central Army, how can we wear this dog's skin?"
"You know nothing." Yue Weihan said coldly, "No matter how good the skin is on a dog, it is just dog skin. No matter how bad the skin is on us, it will be the most powerful military uniform!"
"Yes." Li Yulong responded quickly, "I understand your humble position!"
"Okay." Yue Weihan looked up at the sky and said, "It's already dark, get ready to leave!"
"Order..." Li Yulong turned around quickly and shouted, "The 1st company leads the way, the 3rd company breaks off, the 2nd company, and the 4th company take the prisoners and set off, and all the captured materials are handed over to the prisoners to carry!"
