Xiao Jianxiong said modestly that all this was what he should do. He felt a little regretful. After all, it took him many years to gain a firm foothold in the first group of the Puppet Peace Army. Now he could no longer provide support to the underground.
About the internal intelligence of the puppet army.
Captain Zhao smiled and said nothing. Although he was not very clear, he believed that Xiao Jianxiong was not the only one lurking within the puppet army.
He asked: "Brother Xiao, what are your plans in the future?"
Xiao Jianxiong said: "I obey the arrangements of my superiors in everything, but I don't know if I can make a request?" He asked Wei Dayong this sentence.
Wei Dayong said: "You have made great achievements this time. If you have any requests, feel free to ask for them. As long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you."
Xiao Jianxiong said longingly: "Now that my identity has been exposed, I can't stay in Peking City. I hope to go to the anti-Japanese base area of our Eighth Route Army, preferably to work in your Mawushan Military Division."
The conditions in the Mawushan Military Division can be said to be among the best among the anti-Japanese base areas. The outstanding performance of Xu Dalong, Wei Dayong and the special forces team members also left a deep impression on Xiao Jianxiong. He hopes to fight side by side with them.
, so choosing to go to the Mawushan Military Division is his biggest wish at the moment.
Wei Dayong said: "Of course there is no problem with this. As long as you are willing to go, no matter your work or life, we will give you a satisfactory arrangement. Of course, this also requires the consent of the underground party." After speaking, he looked at Captain Zhao.
Captain Zhao immediately agreed. He said: "Comrade Xiao Jianxiong, our superiors have also taken this into consideration. Since you are no longer suitable for underground work, the organization also wants to arrange for you to go to the liberated areas. Since you are willing to go to the Mawushan Army
Division, I believe the superiors will definitely agree."
"This is really great." Xiao Jianxiong said excitedly.
Wei Dayong asked Xiao Jianxiong to go down to rest first, while he and Captain Zhao studied the matter of seizing that batch of important supplies.
Captain Zhao said: "We have to wait for this matter. The Japanese and puppet troops attach great importance to this batch of important materials, and the hiding place is also very secret. At present, our intelligence agents have not passed on the exact information. Don't worry,
Our underground intelligence agents in Peiping are very capable, and they are currently working hard. I believe it will not take long before they will find out where these important materials are hidden."
The North China Front Army suffered continuous heavy losses, and the combat operations against Xu Dalong and others could only be temporarily shelved. Xu Dalong saw that the Japanese and puppet troops had no movement for the time being, and decided to seize this favorable opportunity to continue to expand and consolidate the base area.
He ordered the main force from Mawushan Military Division to stay in Changping County. Troops from Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and Jizhong Military Region, with the cooperation of troops from Mawushan Military Division, continued their offensive against the surrounding Japanese and puppet troops and captured four more county towns.
, annihilated a large number of Japanese and puppet troops.
The results achieved by Xu Dalong and others in the Changping area also stimulated the commanders and fighters of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. They were determined to fight a big battle and decided to concentrate the main force of the military region to attack Zhangjiakou. He asked Xu Dalong's troops to cooperate and block the attack from Chengde
Japanese reinforcements came from the direction. Xu Dalong immediately led the main force to the designated combat area.
The campaign to attack Zhangjiakou organized by the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region began. Due to the cooperation of Xu Dalong's troops, they did not have to worry about Japanese reinforcements, so they could besiege the Japanese and puppet troops in the city without any scruples.
After five days and nights of fierce fighting, the famous city of Zhangjiakou outside the Great Wall was captured, and more than 7,000 Japanese and puppet troops were annihilated, achieving a brilliant victory.
During this period, Xu Dalong and others were very relaxed. After the battle of Zhangjiakou started, the Japanese troops in the direction of Peiping did not dare to go to the rescue.
After receiving orders from their superiors, the Japanese troops in Chengde marched out of Chengde. When their leading troops encountered an obstruction from the Eighth Route Army, especially when they learned that they were encountering troops commanded by Xu Dalong, they immediately turned around and returned to Chengde without hesitation.
Don't dare to come out inside.
Although Xu Dalong and others did not win a big battle, they also completed the task of cooperating with the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region to capture Zhangjiakou.
After completing the task of cooperating with the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, Xu Dalong led the main force back to Changping. Just before entering the city, the 16th Regiment of the Central Hebei Military Region sent a telegram saying that they had encountered trouble in attacking Qingzhou County and asked Xu Dalong for reinforcements.
.
After Xu Dalong understood the situation, he called Sun Desheng and Cui Zhenyue and asked them to lead cavalry troops and chariot troops to reinforce.
Although Gyeongju County is only a small county, it is an ancient historical city. As early as the Northern Wei Dynasty, a military stronghold was set up here. Thousands of years have passed, and the city walls have been repaired again and again. The walls of a small county town are as high as
Three feet, the base of the city wall is 20 meters thick, and the top width of the city wall is 10 meters.
For such a strong city wall, the 16th Regiment lacked heavy weapons and could only use the primitive method of climbing the city with ladders to launch attacks. Several attacks suffered setbacks and lost many commanders and soldiers. They were helpless and could only ask Xu Dalong for help.
The commanders and fighters of the 16th Regiment knew that the troops in the Mawushan Military Division had strong firepower, and they all hoped that reinforcements would arrive quickly so that they could capture Gyeongju County as soon as possible and avenge the sacrifice of their comrades.
Finally, the reinforcements they were looking forward to arrived. Seeing the cannons dragged behind the horses, the officers and soldiers of the 16th Regiment felt confident. Especially when they saw the tank troops coming with billowing smoke, they became more and more excited.
Already.
The commanders and fighters of the 16th Regiment had dealt with the Japanese tank troops. Although they faced only thin-skinned armored vehicles, they had no choice but to rush forward with explosive packs at the risk of their own lives!
Although they once bombed two Japanese armored vehicles, they also sacrificed dozens of outstanding commanders and fighters.
They are well aware of the power of tanks and armored vehicles. Now that they see so many tanks and armored vehicles, they belong to our Eighth Route Army. The officers and soldiers are very proud in their hearts and look forward to appreciating the power of the tank unit.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Cui Zhenyue and the commanders and soldiers of the chariot unit saw the envious looks in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Central Hebei Military Region. They were all very excited, hoping to be able to stand in front of them.
Showing his strength, he drove tanks and armored vehicles towards the county seat.
Cui Zhenyue brought a total of 28 tanks and 54 armored vehicles this time, which totaled more than 80 vehicles. Looking from a distance, they saw a large black mass of steel monsters. They were trailing billowing smoke and dust behind them, and they looked menacing.
, majestic. Seeing this momentum, the officers and soldiers of the 16th Regiment screamed excitedly.
In order to capture Gyeongju County in one fell swoop, Sun Desheng commanded the artillerymen to prepare for the bombardment. The officers and soldiers of the 16th Regiment also installed bayonets on their rifles, preparing to blast open the city wall and rush into the city.
However, at this moment, a white flag was suddenly raised on the city wall. Soon after, the city gate opened, and two Japanese officers, three puppet army officers, and two guys in suits came out with their hands raised.
.The Japanese and puppet troops in the city actually surrendered.
It turns out that the number of Japanese and puppet troops in Gyeongju City is not very large. The Japanese army only has one infantry squadron and gendarmerie, with a total of only more than 200 people. One-third of them have been lost in previous battles. The puppet army in the city has a regiment.
corps, two battalions, and some pseudo policemen under the maintenance committee. If the militia organized by the local gentry were in the field, they would never be the opponents of the 16th Regiment of the Central Hebei Military Region. However, they relied on their solid city walls to block the 16th Regiment.
The attack of the 16th Regiment.
Originally, the Japanese and puppet troops thought they could continue to hold on, but they did not expect reinforcements from the Eighth Route Army. If it were an ordinary Eighth Route Army, no matter how many people came, the Japanese and puppet troops in the city believed that they could continue to hold on with their solid city defenses.
However, when they saw the cannons that looked like tree stumps outside the city, especially the large number of tanks and armored vehicles, they knew that they were finished. The county seat would definitely not be able to be defended. If they continued to fight, they would be dead.
They had been dealing with the Eighth Route Army for so many years, and they knew that the Eighth Route Army treated prisoners favorably, especially those who voluntarily surrendered. So everyone thought of surrendering.
If it were in the past, at least 90% of the Japanese army would never surrender, but they have learned that the Eighth Route Army outside has a unit belonging to Xu Dalong from Shanxi, so the situation is different.
There were not a few Japanese soldiers who surrendered to Xu Dalong's troops, and the rank of the officers was much higher than that of his small squadron leader. It was not a shame to surrender to such a powerful opponent. So the Japanese squadron leader chose to surrender.
The officers and soldiers of the 16th Regiment of the Jizhong Military Region originally wanted to enjoy the spectacle of the chariot troops crushing the Japanese and puppet troops. Seeing this situation, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but they were still very happy to be able to capture the county town without any blood.
Especially since they all know that the troops in the Mawushan Military Division are very wealthy and will not compete with them for trophies. All the weapons and equipment of the Japanese and puppet troops in the city can be given to their regiment. Even the property seized from the city will not be given to them.
Can get a part.
With so many benefits, how could they not be happy and encouraged? Seeing the surrender of the Japanese and puppet troops, the officers and soldiers rushed into the city cheering.
Sun Desheng was very good at summing up combat experience. The battle to capture Gyeongju County made him think of a new way of fighting. He took the cavalry troops, chariot troops and officers and soldiers of the 16th Regiment to attack the new target.
After arriving there, we did not launch a direct attack to avoid unnecessary casualties. Instead, we surrounded the enemy first, then drove tanks and armored vehicles over, set up cannons, and then let the Japanese and puppet troops captured from Gyeongju City attack
The defenders tried to persuade them to surrender.
As a result, without exception, the surrounded Japanese and puppet troops saw the Eighth Route Army's momentum and knew that they were no match. So they all obediently raised their hands and surrendered.
While Xu Dalong and Li Changshui continued to establish the anti-Japanese base area, they were waiting for news about Wei Dayong and others in Beiping City.
