After the September 18th Incident, the Japanese army invaded and occupied the Eastern Four Provinces and firmly took them into their own hands. Relying on the Eastern Four Provinces, they began to stockpile various military supplies, train soldiers, and strengthen their individual combat capabilities.
In 1937, the Marco Polo Bridge Incident was launched and a crazy plan was formulated to destroy China within three months. From August 13, 1937 to November 12, 1937, China and Japan conducted a battle of unprecedented scale. The Battle of Songhu, only
This battle completely shattered the Japanese army's crazy plan.
Until 1940, the Japanese army's battle in inland China seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, and it was difficult to break out. The Japanese army believed that continuing to invest troops in China was an act that outweighed the gains. Moreover, the Japanese army at that time was also trapped in the swamp of the Pacific War.
In China, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. China formed an alliance with the Allied Powers. The Allied Powers began to support China with weapons and equipment, and most of the weapons and equipment were purchased by overseas Chinese at that time.
Since the Japanese army controlled all China's ports and skies, the only way to transport supplies was to send supplies by ship to Yangon, Burma, which was colonized by the British, and then transport them to the country via the Burma Road from Yangon. The domestic situation at that time was not optimistic either.
, if the Allies had not supported the weapons and equipment of the national army, the weapons and equipment of the national army at that time would have been completely eaten up by the Japanese army. The Japanese army began to look for opportunities in other directions. They set their sights on Burma, the British colony.
They plan to cut off China's communication with the outside world, encircle China on the China-Myanmar border, and devour China.
The plan went very smoothly, and the Japanese army was unstoppable along the way. One regiment was able to pull out the front of a brigade. This shows how badly the expeditionary force and the British army in Burma were defeated at that time.
However, just when victory was in sight, the Japanese army suddenly encountered an ambush at Nantianmen. The top brass of the Japanese army were determined to break through the only barrier in China's rear. Naturally, they would not stop in front of Nantianmen. A brigade consisted of about 5,000 troops.
They are quickly gathering at the Myanmar-Myanmar border.
On Nantianmen, after ambushing a Japanese brigade, the Japanese army seemed to have calmed down and stopped attacking. Little did they know that this was because the Japanese army had misjudged the strength of the national army on Nantianmen and began to gather troops in an attempt to open Nantianmen in one fell swoop.
And took advantage of the situation to cross the Nu River.
At Nantianmen, Xia Yuan also noticed something was wrong. After experiencing the Korean War, he smelled an unusual smell. He ordered people to start searching in the forest. Four scouts were sent but none came back. Xia Yuan realized
, something might have happened to them, so he asked Doubian and Yangdanzi to wait again, while he entered through a thick patch of grass. Soon he discovered the Japanese soldiers hiding in the jungle. After careful observation, he discovered that this group of Japanese soldiers
The number was about one squadron, and in the rear area, he also detected a large number of Japanese troops gathering and established military camps everywhere.
"The Japanese army is gathering troops on a large scale. They are preparing to find time to launch a massive attack on Nantianmen!"
Xia Yuan is not stupid. The previous annihilation of a Japanese squadron caused these Japanese troops to have a wrong estimate of the strength of the Nantianmen. They gathered a large number of Japanese troops in an attempt to tear apart the defense line of the Nantianmen garrison in one fell swoop. He was thinking in his mind.
This move of the Japanese army was not limited to Nantianmen. Fortunately, Meng Fangliao conveyed new news that the water level of the Nu River began to rise.
There was a heavy rain in the upper reaches of the Nu River, and the water level of the Nu River began to rise. The river was churning violently, and the rafts could no longer pass. The only transportation route, Xingtiandu, was also blown up. The Sichuan Army on Nantianmen was completely trapped in an isolated and helpless predicament.
Xia Yuan's plan is to hold on to Nantianmen.
The gathering of the Japanese army gave them time to stabilize the Nantianmen defense line. Xia Yuan was not idle for a moment. After understanding the Japanese army's intentions, he quickly organized the defeated troops to consolidate the first line of defense, the second line of defense and the third line of defense.
A line of defense was established, and a large number of booby traps were placed in the woods in front of the forward positions. Once the Japanese army attacked on a large scale, these booby traps could play a huge role.
Digging trenches and even luring enemy trenches, Xia Yuan knew that the Chinese army did not have air superiority at the moment, and the Japanese bombers would soon accompany the infantry charge to launch a fierce attack on the defenders' positions on Nantianmen.
Several enemy-baiting trenches were dug at the location. The purpose of the enemy-baiting trenches was to disrupt the sight of Japanese bombers and fighter pilots. The real trenches were decorated with weeds and leaves.
Both the Sichuan Army and the Japanese Army were busy, and the Japanese Army were also observing the Nantianmen. They did find a large number of traces of the activities of the National Army on the Nantianmen. Although their activities were very covert, they were still discovered by the Japanese army, but because the other side was hidden in the trenches
, the number is immeasurable, and the opponent's forward position is only a hundred meters away from the foot of the mountain, and there is still a long distance on the way up the mountain. It is conservatively estimated that it is a regiment, or it may be a division.
The Japanese army gathered a large number of troops. Naturally, they did not care whether the opponent was a regiment or a division. They captured Nantianmen, forced a crossing of the Nu River, and occupied Chanda. This was the Japanese army's plan.
Yu Xiaoqing, who was on the other side of the Nu River, looked at today's newspaper and turned his eyes to the Nantianmen opposite. There was silence on the Nantianmen. Since the end of the first battle yesterday, the Nantianmen had fallen into silence. The existence of the Sichuan Army gave them a chance to fight for it.
A lot of time was spent consolidating the position, and Shangfeng also paid attention to Zenda's Sichuan Army, and even asked about the current situation of the Sichuan Army. However, the water in the Nu River has risen, making it impossible to cross the river. Xingtiandu has been blown up, and they cannot obtain it.
Message to the Sichuan Army Corps at Nantianmen.
Zhang Lixian walked in and said: "Regiment, since the newspaper was published, many patriots have donated materials to the Sichuan Army. In addition, many news agencies have come to Chanda, and the people of Chanda have also requested to come to the forward position to see
One look at their heroes."
Yu Xiaoqing raised her head and looked at him, "It's only been two days, how can things escalate so quickly?"
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhang Lixian nodded and said: "Commander Xia Yuan is right. Since the defeat of the expeditionary force, the anti-Japanese sentiment across the country is not high and morale is low.
, but as the newspaper published, a lone army blocked the Japanese army at Nantianmen. This is the only army currently fighting the Japanese army on the China-Myanmar border. Their appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
This matter also attracted the attention of Shangfeng.”
Yu Xiaoqing's eyes darkened slightly. For some reason, he felt like he was being used as a weapon.
After a while, He Shuguang came over, holding a new newspaper in his hand, "Tour leader, come and take a look at this."
Yu Xiaoqing stood up and took the newspaper in He Shuguang's hand, his eyes narrowed slightly. The big title on the newspaper was 'The Last Words of the Commander of the Nantianmenchuan Regiment'!
"If we don't stand up today, the mountains and rivers will fall in the future, and who will stand up? Today, the soldiers of our Sichuan Army swore to fight the Japanese army to the end at Nantianmen and sacrifice themselves for the country. In vain, we can awaken the people's determination to resist Japan and the national spirit.
The backbone of China! Today, the bones of our soldiers are buried in the green mountains. In the future, tens of millions of people will still stand up to protect our land of China and ensure peace for the rest of our lives."
It is unimaginable what kind of effect it would have if such a numbing declaration was published in a newspaper, coupled with the previous heroic notes being published in the newspaper.
After reading the newspaper, Yu Xiaoqing stood up and paced back and forth. He already felt that he had been tricked by Xia Yuan.
He made last words that could shock the past and present, and used the excuse that the defeat of the expeditionary force brought about a low anti-Japanese sentiment across the country and a lack of fighting spirit in the peak, so that he agreed to hand over the notes containing the heroic deeds of the expeditionary force and the Sichuan Army's deeds on Nantianmen.
A small victory was handed over to the newspaper and attracted the attention of all China to Zenda's war.
Once the newspaper comes to report, they will be aware of the last words left by the leader of the Sichuan Army circulating in Zenda. Today, two days have passed, and the Sichuan Army's blocking of the Japanese army at Nantianmen has been fermented in the country, especially now, Vietnam
More and more patriots are coming to help the Sichuan Army.
Since the collapse of the Burma War, a hundred thousand troops were defeated in Burma, General Dai Anlan died for his country, the whole country was in an uproar, and the whole country was grieving. Only 40,000 of the 100,000 young people returned to China, and 60,000 were buried in Burma. These are all
The elite troops of the national army and the best weapons were allocated to the expeditionary force. After this battle, all weapons and equipment were lost. Burma was occupied by the Japanese army. China's last road to the outside world was blocked by the Japanese army. China was completely enveloped.
Under the encirclement of the Japanese army, the whole of China has been shrouded in a shadow.
At this moment, they urgently need a victory to change the current situation, and the appearance of the Sichuan Legion has undoubtedly become a flashpoint in their emotions.
Two days were enough to cause a sensation in the country. In a short period of time, the number of newspapers published in major cities increased dramatically.
When the outside world was in turmoil, the defeated soldiers at Nantianmen rarely lived a relatively peaceful life for two days after strengthening their position construction. But they also knew that this was the calm before the storm. Don't look at the sunshine above Nantianmen now.
It was bright and sunny, but in fact it was already covered with dark clouds, and dark clouds were pressing down on the city.
The defeated soldiers on Nantianmen didn't know that they had caused a huge heated discussion in the country. They were lying in the trench, holding their guns, looking at the burning clouds in the distance.
Bu La said: "It's been two days. What is Xiao Dongyang doing? Why don't you see them attacking?"
Kaname straightened the slightly crooked helmet: "The little Japanese devil definitely has no good intentions."
Kang Ya came over and said, "If you want hemp, if you want hemp, give me a bullet."
Yao Yao said nonchalantly: "You son of a bitch, I only have three bullets. If I give you one, how can I still shoot?"
Meng Fangliao said: "The Japanese army is gathering troops. They want not only Nantianmen, but also Chanda and all of China."
Snake Butt said: "They have such a big appetite, aren't they afraid of overeating?"
Ah Yi said: "Shanghai, the Japanese army has occupied Shanghai a long time ago. They want more than just Shanghai."
Kaname said: "If the little Japs attack from here, they can easily reach Sichuan. I don't want the little Japs to attack Sichuan. Even if I risk my life, I have to block the little Japs."
This side of the river."
Kaoru Ma didn't know a single Chinese character, but he understood that if the Japanese invaded Sichuan, his family would be gone, and his relatives would be gone. The reason why warriors came out of Sichuan was to protect their families and the country. Three million warriors came out of Sichuan, and they would not be able to survive for a day.
Drive the Japanese army away and never return home in one day.
They chatted first, scolding the little Japs, and scolded all the eighteen generations of the little Japs' ancestors. They were just about to drag the eighteen generations of the little Japanese Japs' ancestors out of the ground and beat them up.
Long Wenwen came over, stood on the trench, and stepped on their heads: "Hit them, beat them back, just like a dog. If you don't beat it, it will disobey and bite you. Even if you are the master, it will bite you."
, if you don’t obey, you will have to be taught a lesson.”
Mi Long hated the Japanese devils even more, but now he had more worries in his heart. He let the sun hit his face, squinted, and the lines at the corners of his eyes became more obvious, "The little Japanese devil was still our dog thousands of years ago, and now he is
He started biting people. If he disobeyed, he should have been beaten long ago. Now he is fine. Everyone in the family was bitten to death by this mad dog."
The defeated soldiers listened in silence.
The sun was setting in the west, and the burning clouds in the distance turned half of the sky red. After three days of garrisoning at the Nantianmen, the Japanese troops were still huddled in the forest. I couldn't figure out what they were doing, and Xia Yuan had not been seen recently. Meng Fan
Liao said: "The regiment has always been in the forward position, and he is worried. The more the Japanese Japs don't move, the less you know when they will attack. Just like a mouse, you don't know when they will come out of the corner and attack you."
You take a sip."
The security at Nantianmen has also been strengthened. Meng Fangliao is right. The Japanese troops are hiding in the woods and they don't dare to move. I guess this Japanese army is like a cat in the dark, waiting for you to relax.
When the time comes, they will jump out and bite you. Although mice are small, they can also bite people.
As the sky gradually darkened, the defeated soldiers patrolled the Nantianmen as usual, making fires to cook. Smoke also rose from the woods in the distance, and the Japanese cooks also began to cook for the Japanese soldiers.
At the forward position, the sky had darkened. The reconnaissance soldiers looked at the delicate forest and said to the soldiers beside them: "The little Japs probably won't come tonight."
He said: "Who knows, maybe it will come when, little..."
Just as he was speaking halfway, a gunshot was heard from the woods. The defeated soldier fell to the ground. The gunshot instantly alerted the garrison on Nantianmen. The soldiers in the forward position quickly gave up eating and found their fighting positions.
.
In the forest, a figure galloped quickly. He rushed to a tree in two or three steps. His body was wrapped in green leaves and weeds. His face was smeared with various paints. He held a gun wrapped with cloth strips and aimed at it.
In the grass in the distance, the trigger was pulled, and the bullet came out of the barrel and passed through the grass. A faint sound of "Hmm" was heard. There was no movement in the grass. Then, yellow figures appeared in the surrounding grass, like Japanese devils.
The vanguard appeared, and they took advantage of the dim sky to launch an attack on Nantianmen.
In the sky, there was the sharp whistling of artillery shells. On the forward position, the company commander shouted: "Hide, hide!"
