Wang Pao and the officers and soldiers of the motorcycle squadron happened to be at the rear of the enemy, so they commanded the team members to outflank the Japanese army in three directions, and then launched an attack on the Japanese army.
Under the attack of the special operations squadron, the number of Japanese troops continued to decrease. Before Wang Pao and others arrived, they no longer had the advantage. Wang Pao and others suddenly attacked from behind, which caught them off guard and confused their position.
.
When Monk Wei saw Wang Pao and others arriving, he immediately commanded the special operations squadron to attack the enemy. Soon after, the remaining Japanese troops were completely annihilated.
After Monk Wei and Wang Pao reunited, they sent a telegram to Xu Dalong.
At this time, Xu Dalong had already left the battle and was commanding his troops to fight in the streets with the Japanese army. After receiving the telegram from Wei Monk and Wang Pao, he ordered them to attack the Japanese army near the North Gate.
After the Japanese special agent team withdrew, Yamamoto Kazuki counted the number of people, and the result made him very depressed. After this stage of the battle, the special agent team had a total of 14 casualties. He had brought 45 people, so the casualties had reached
one third.
Yamamoto Kazuki has led the special agent team through countless battles, and this time the casualties were the most serious.
The original order Yamamoto Kazuki received was to cooperate with the Sasaki Regiment to capture Ping An County, rescue Kazuo Shimizu, stay in Ping An County, and find the batch of arms hidden on Cuiyun Peak.
Yamamoto Kazuki had his own ideas. He was really not interested in the previous tasks. He had already heard about Xu Dalong's power. His main goal this time was to find Xu Dalong and eliminate him.
But the current situation is very confusing, and it is temporarily impossible to find Xu Dalong.
Seeing that his men suffered such heavy casualties, he had a bad premonition and decided to retreat, waiting for the special agent team to rest and recuperate before looking for Xu Dalong.
Kazuki Yamamoto called a nearby officer under Sasaki and asked him to tell Sasaki that he was taking the wounded back to rest.
Then he led the agents out of the county town, to the place where the war horses were stored, mounted the horses and evacuated towards Taiyuan City.
Excellent soldiers are often highly sensitive to danger. This sensitivity is unreasonable and relies on intuition and rich combat experience. Li Yunlong and Xu Dalong are like this, and Yamamoto Kazuki is also like this. Based on this feeling,
It allows them to avoid danger at the most critical moment.
Yamamoto Kazuki's intuition was correct. Shortly after he led the special agent team to evacuate, Sun Desheng had already led the brigade to outflank the Sasaki United team.
The ones who arrived before Sun Desheng and others were Wei Monk's special operations squadron and Wang Pao's motorcycle squadron. They arrived near the north gate and launched an attack on the Japanese army from the side and rear.
When Sasaki first entered the city, the progress was relatively smooth. They continued to launch attacks and beat the guerrillas back steadily.
After 40 minutes of fighting, the Japanese army occupied one-third of the northern third of Pingan County.
Then the battle entered a stalemate stage. The Japanese army and the guerrillas fought fiercely around every street and every building. The guerrillas couldn't recapture the North Gate, but the Japanese army felt very frustrated if they wanted to continue attacking.
Hard work.
Sasaki originally thought that this sneak attack was very secretive, and with the cooperation of Yamamoto's special agent team, he should be able to quickly capture the county seat. Unexpectedly, the battle turned out like this, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, because the safe county seat
It is only a few dozen kilometers away from Guancheng County, the core area of the Mawushan base area. If Ping'an County cannot be captured quickly, once reinforcements from the Mawushan guerrillas arrive, the Japanese army is likely to be annihilated.
Sasaki called his three captains and gave them a death order to seize the Ping'an County seat before 7 o'clock tomorrow morning.
The captains of the Japanese army also knew that the situation was serious. After returning to their respective units, they immediately commanded their troops to start a fierce attack.
The anti-Japanese armed forces guarding Pingan County are mainly a regiment of the Independent Brigade, as well as a small number of directly affiliated troops of the Mawushan Guerrillas. If it were a field battle, they would not be able to stop the attack of the Sasaki Regiment. Fortunately, here
The county town with complex terrain relied on its buildings to engage in street battles with the Japanese army, preventing it from being defeated by the enemy.
With the fierce Japanese attack, the anti-Japanese armed forces continued to shrink their positions, and the Japanese army gradually occupied half of the city.
At this moment, Wei Monk's special operations squadron and Wang Pao's motorcycle squadron launched an attack on the Japanese army.
Xu Dalong's ears were very keen. Although the city was full of gunfire, he still heard the fierce gunfire coming from outside the north gate.
He shouted loudly: "Brothers, our reinforcements have arrived, and the little devils will not be able to hold on anymore. Beat them hard, don't let these little devils escape."
After hearing the good news, the morale of the guerrillas and the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade was greatly boosted. They no longer retreated, but launched an attack on the enemy.
Sasaki also heard the gunshots coming from outside the city, and felt worried.
However, after listening carefully, he found that the number of guerrillas who came to attack the Japanese army was not large, so he once again divided a small force to entangle the troops of Wei Monk, Wang Pao and others, and ordered his troops to continue to follow the guerrillas.
Engage in street fighting.
At this time, based on the progress of the battle, he had realized that the strength of the guerrillas in the city was not as good as his own. He firmly believed that as long as he continued to fight, he would be able to annihilate the enemy and occupy Ping'an County in a few hours.
After the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade and the guerrillas launched a counterattack against the Japanese army, they were beaten back by the Japanese army again. Facing the fierce attack of the Japanese army, the soldiers gradually felt a sense of despair.
Xu Dalong was also a little worried. He was afraid that if the fighting continued, the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade would collapse.
Just when he was trying to boost morale, real reinforcements finally arrived.
Sun Desheng led eight cavalry squadrons over. They set up artillery and machine guns, and first launched a fierce attack on the Japanese troops outside the city gate who had not yet entered the city.
The Japanese troops suffered heavy casualties and fled into the city in panic. While they held the north gate, they sent people to report to Sasaki.
Sun Desheng commanded the cavalry troops to use artillery to blast the Japanese troops near the north gate, and then organized the troops to launch an attack.
Monk Wei led the special operations squadron and Wang Pao's motorcycle squadron to approach the city wall. They used the same method as the Yamamoto special forces to climb the city wall and launched an attack along the base of the city wall in the direction of the north gate.
Sasaki heard the fierce sound of artillery and gunfire coming from outside the city, and guessed that a large enemy force had arrived.
Sure enough, the news coming from outside made him feel a little crushed. They had been surrounded by guerrillas.
At the beginning, Sasaki still admired the battle plan formulated by his superiors. Now, he couldn't help cursing his superiors for being so stupid and sending the Sasaki Alliance into the tiger's mouth.
This time, the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade and the guerrillas who were fighting fiercely with the Japanese army did not need Xu Dalong to boost their morale. They all heard the fierce gunfire outside the city and knew that reinforcements had arrived. The morale of the officers and soldiers was greatly boosted.
Attacked the Japanese troops again.
Soon after, the guerrillas outside the city and Wei Monk worked together to capture the North Gate. The officers and soldiers of the guerrillas rushed into the North Gate and started a fierce street battle with the Japanese army.
Sasaki realized the danger. He wanted to lead his troops to withdraw from Ping'an County, but he could not do so. He knew that the Mawushan guerrillas had a large number of cavalry, and rushing out of the county would be tantamount to death. So he led his troops
He held on to the occupied city and used buildings to engage in fierce battles with the guerrilla officers and soldiers. He then reported the situation here to his superiors and requested tactical guidance.
Fujiwara Konichi received the telegram from Sasaki, and he felt very headache. Sasaki was surrounded by enemy forces in Ping'an County, and of course he wanted to send troops to rescue him. However, Yucheng was far away from Ping'an County, and the 108th Division
Most of the vehicles were given to the Sasaki Regiment. It was impossible to cover such a long distance on foot.
He was unable to find so many vehicles for a while, so he could only send a telegram to Chiba Xunyi, asking him to send troops to rescue the Sasaki Regiment.
Qianye Xunyi didn't dare to provoke the Mawushan guerrillas at all, so he found various excuses to stop them.
Fujiwara Konichi was very angry, so he took the lawsuit to Shinozuka Yoshio and asked him to give Chiba an order to quickly send troops to rescue the Sasaki Regiment.
Yoshio Shinozuka sent a telegram to Chiba Xunichi, asking him to send the main force of the 32nd garrison division to Ping'an County to rescue the Sasaki Regiment.
Chiba Xunichi sent a telegram back to Shinozuka Yoshio, saying that many members of the Mawushan guerrillas were found outside Lingao City. It was very possible that the Mawushan guerrillas' tactic was to encircle the point for reinforcements and use the surrounded Sasaki.
The regiment lured the 32nd garrison division to dispatch troops to rescue, and then conducted an ambush on the way.
He believed that the combat effectiveness of the 32nd garrison division was simply incapable of competing against the Mawushan guerrillas alone. If they reluctantly went to Ping'an County, not only would they not be able to save the Sasaki regiment, they would probably also cause heavy losses to the 32nd garrison division.
Yoshio Shinozuka believed that what Chiba said was reasonable. However, according to the tradition of the Japanese army, it was necessary to rescue the besieged troops, and he was unwilling to bear this responsibility. Fujiwara Konichi had a great background. If he annoyed this guy,
Once the complaint reached the base camp of the Japanese army, it was enough for Yoshio Shinozuka to drink a pot.
Yoshio Shinozuka is cunning and cunning, so he naturally has a way to deal with Konichi Fujiwara.
He sent a telegram to Chiba Xunyi, telling him that the Sasaki Alliance must be rescued, and if there were any difficulties, let him find a way to solve them himself.
Chiba Xunichi is a veteran. He understood from the lines of the telegram sent by Shinozuka Yoshio that Shinozuka Yoshio had decided to abandon the Sasaki United. He was hinting to Chiba Xunyi to ask him to find
A suitable excuse to shirk responsibility for the 32nd garrison division not sending troops to rescue the Sasaki Regiment.
Qianye Xunyi had to make a show, so he began to order the troops to assemble. The assembly process was very long, and several hours passed before the leading troops left Lingao City.
They were dawdling on the road. Seven or eight hours had passed, and the troops had not left Lingao City more than 10 kilometers away.
Chiba Xunyi sent the vanguard troops to conduct reconnaissance from a distance and told them to withdraw their troops to Lingao City as soon as they saw the shadow of the Mawushan guerrillas.
In Ping'an County, the enemy and we were of equal strength, and the battle reached a stalemate.
Sasaki's mood became more and more anxious. The reinforcements he had been waiting for for a long time never arrived.
What happened next made him completely despair. At 4 o'clock in the morning, Wang Chengzhu led a brigade to the county seat, immediately rushed into the city and joined the battle. The guerrillas were outnumbered and constantly compressed the area defended by the Japanese army.
, after a fierce battle, just as Sasaki expected, the battle ended before 7 o'clock in the morning.
However, the final winner was not Sasaki. More than 3,000 officers and soldiers under his command turned into cold corpses, while he and more than 300 Japanese officers and soldiers became prisoners of the guerrillas.
Facts have proved that every time Xu Dalong captured Japanese soldiers, he did not mistreat them and released them, which had a subtle effect on the Japanese soldiers around Mawu Mountain. Otherwise, with the tenacious fighting spirit of the Japanese army, it would be impossible
So many Japanese officers and soldiers became prisoners.
Xu Dalong still quickly released Sasaki and his officers and soldiers this time, but he made conditions for the Japanese 108th Division, asking them to hand over 50,000 yuan, and then took the people back.
The battle in Ping'an County was won, but neither Xu Dalong, Zhao Gang, nor the rest of the guerrillas were happy.
This time the battle was too chaotic, and the underground anti-Japanese armed forces suffered heavy casualties again.
This time, the officers and soldiers of the Mawushan guerrillas suffered a total of more than 270 casualties, the officers and soldiers of the Independence Brigade suffered more than 380 casualties, and the civilians in the city also suffered more than 300 casualties.
The lesson was painful. At the summary meeting held after the war, Xu Dalong took the initiative to take responsibility and made self-criticism, admitting that this time he failed to accurately judge the Japanese attack. As a result, the battle was so passive that
Caused many unnecessary casualties.
He said that he would report the matter to the military region and request the head of the military region to punish him.
Xu Dalong's sincere attitude won the understanding of the participants.
Zhao Gang said: "Captain, the little devil has played so many tricks. Without accurate information, errors in judgment are inevitable. Moreover, the Yamamoto special agent team unexpectedly appeared. We did not have any information in advance, so the losses caused
, I cannot entirely blame you. If I have to take responsibility, I also have a responsibility. I should also have thought that the Japanese army would never give up on tracing that batch of arms. At that time, I should have suggested that the main force of the guerrillas and tank troops be transferred to Ping An.
Come to the county seat, then the battle will not be so difficult."
Sun Desheng, Wang Chengzhu, Wang Limin, Gao Zhiyong, Huang Jingzhong and others believed that Xu Dalong was not to blame for this incident. Thanks to Xu Dalong being here, otherwise, not only would it be difficult to achieve the final victory, but Ping An County would have been lost long ago. The guerrillas and the independent brigade
Officers and soldiers will suffer greater losses.
Faced with everyone's trust in him, Xu Dalong was very moved. He said that he would further strengthen his intelligence work in the future, and at the same time, when fighting the Japanese and puppet troops, he should think about the situation more complexly, consider the problem more forward-looking, and try to avoid the situation.
A passive situation like this battle.
Xu Dalong and Zhao Gang wrote a summary of the battle in Ping'an County and reported it to the Taiyue Military Region Headquarters. They also notified the news of the appearance of Yamamoto Kazuki's special agents in Ping'an County, reminding the military region and headquarters to beware of the Japanese special forces.
attack.
After receiving the report from the Mawu Mountain guerrillas, the commander also attached great importance to the appearance of the Yamamoto special agent team. On the one hand, he reported this information to the headquarters, and on the other hand, he also notified the troops of the Taiyue Military Region.
After Li Yunlong heard the news, he was very excited. When he succeeded Kong Jie as the leader of the independent regiment, he had been holding back his energy to clean up Yamamoto Kazuki's special agent team, but he never had the chance.
Hearing that Yamamoto's special agent team had appeared again, he sent a telegram to Xu Dalong, saying that if Yamamoto's special agent team was discovered, don't forget to notify the new brigade. Li Yunlong would personally participate in the battle to annihilate Yamamoto's special agent team.
Among the various units of the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces, the one who hated Yamamoto's special agent team the most was Kong Jie. Kong Jie was caught off guard by Yamamoto Kazuki and was made disgraced. If Li Yunlong hadn't interceded for him,
He had already gone to the headquarters to work as a groom.
He had wanted to deal with Yamamoto Kazuki for a long time, but he had never had the chance. Hearing that Yamamoto Kazuki finally appeared in Shanxi again, he immediately sent a telegram to Xu Dalong, telling him that if he saw Yamamoto's special agent team, he must notify him
He, he would personally chop Yamamoto Kazuki with a big sword to avenge him with one arrow.
Ever since hearing the news about Yamamoto Kazuki, Kong Jie has been unable to let go.
He thought over and over again and thought that when Yamamoto Kazuki appeared in Ping'an County, he must be heading for Xu Dalong.
So he sent another telegram to Xu Dalong, asking him to be careful. Nowadays, the Mawushan guerrillas, especially Xu Dalong, are a thorn in the side of the Japanese army. The Japanese army will definitely use various conspiracies against Xu Dalong. He thinks that the Yamamoto special agent team must still be there.
He would go to the Mawu Mountain base and secretly assassinate Xu Dalong.
The more Kong Jie thought about it, the more he believed that his analysis and judgment was correct. He was eager to eliminate Yamamoto Kazuki, and after sending a telegram to Xu Dalong, he ran to the military region headquarters to see the commander.
Kong Jie's station was more than 20 miles away from the headquarters of the military region. When the commander saw Kong Jie, he felt a little surprised and thought that something important must have happened. Otherwise, he would call and ask for instructions.
The commander asked: "Kong Jie, do you have anything important to do with me?"
Kong Jie said: "Commander, Xu Dalong is in danger in the Mawu Mountain base area, and the Yamamoto special agent team must be targeting him when they appear there.
Xu Dalong has repeatedly made military exploits and contributed a lot to the development of our military region, but we cannot let him have an accident. I request to take the New Second Brigade to the Mawushan base area to help Xu Dalong repel the Japanese and puppet attacks and ensure that he
safety.”
