Nakano Naozo's mind raced, and he immediately figured out a few key points: First, the reason why the Jiaodong Group Army launched across the board and captured several counties in one fell swoop was to drive the imperial army toward Jiaoji Road so that they could be annihilated in one fell swoop.
So if they dare to do this, it must be the main force of the Jiaodong Army led by Jiang Qiang who is cooperating with Qin Siyu who is far away in Tianjin.
Moreover, his main force did not suffer any major losses when the Imperial Army's heavy group was mopping up, and maintained a strong combat power. Secondly, the reason why Commander Otaka Kamezo was attacked and captured at Shijilipu Airport was not because he was the commander of the Twelfth Army.
There was a traitor in the headquarters of the 108th Division and the 108th Division. It was not because the intelligence system of the Jiaodong Group Army was so powerful, but because there was a problem with the 108th Division Headquarters in Weicheng. Only the Jiaodong Group Army occupied the 108th Division.
Only at the division headquarters can we naturally see the telegram or telephone records that Commander Otaka Kamezo is coming to Weicheng. You must know that it was a temporary decision, and only Otaka Kamezo, Kobayashi Asaburo, Shimomoto Kumaya, and Suzuki Toshiyuki
Several people knew that the intelligence could not be leaked. Only when the Jiaodong Group Army captured the headquarters of the 108th Division could they explain why Lieutenant General Yuan Xiongmi kept urging all the troops not to leave any defenders on the defensive lines and to reinforce the Second Division.
Shilibao Airport. Needless to say, the current Xiayuan Xiongmi is no longer the real Xiayuan Xiongmi. Jiang Qiang must have used the captured radio station and code book to pretend that he was giving orders. Third, don't mention your military rank.
The avant-garde brigade that set out earlier may have been destroyed first. Even the 104th Brigade that rushed to Shilibao Airport in a hurry was probably destroyed as well. The whole operation was a big scam by Jiang Qiang from beginning to end.
Conspiracy, big trap. Just imagine, if the 105th Regiment stationed in Fangzi and the division headquarters stationed in Weicheng had not fallen into the hands of the Jiaodong Group Army, their military strength itself was very strong and they could use their own 25th Brigade.
Did the regiment go all the way to reinforce it?
It can be said that Major General Naozō Nakano really lived up to the training given to him by the Army University. He was able to figure out many secrets so quickly. Of course, he understood it before it was too late. At least he did not act like a fool.
As soon as Nakano Naozo thought about it, he heard a rumbling explosion, and there was a whirlwind. Nakano Naozo's face hit the wooden chair opposite, blood flowed all over his face, and his head became dizzy.
.
However, after all, Naozo Nakano was a battle-hardened general inspired by the spirit of Bushido. He knew that this was extremely critical, and it was very likely that the Jiaodong Army would attack soon. Resisting the pain, Naozo Nakano began to turn around, while
The wounded soldiers climbed out of the carriage to resist, while observing the situation and wanting to climb out first.
At this moment, the Eighth Route Army pounced on him, and Song Dahu's bullets sent the old devil, whose hands were stained with the blood of the Chinese people, completely back to the East. Song Dahu didn't know Naozo Nakano, but he knew his major general badge, and knew that this should be
He was the leader of the Japanese brigade. He changed the magazine and was about to fight again, but saw that the soldiers had already rushed up, shooting into the car windows and dropping bombs, leaving the Japanese army column with blood and flesh flying everywhere, and it was a mess.
Seeing that there were no more living Japs in the carriage, Song Dahu ordered the shooting to stop. He got in through the window, pulled Nakano Naozo's legs, pulled him out, and placed him on the ground, waiting for the leaders.
Come check it out.
The battle to eliminate Nakano Naozo ended quickly. Chang Yuan did some rough calculations and felt that the number of soldiers in the Third Army of the Little Devils did not match the number of troops that Nakano Naozo should lead. He immediately thought that this guy might have played a trick.
Xinyan, Zhang Dian left some troops in Zhoucun. He quickly sent a report to Lei Dapao, asking him to control the battle rhythm as much as possible when he eliminated the Japanese rearguard brigade, giving the Japanese a chance to ask for help, and see if he could keep the 25th Brigade in Zhoucun.
The Japs from Zhoucun and Zhangdian were mobilized and eliminated in the wild to reduce the resistance in the capture of Zhoucun and Zhangdian.
After sending the telegram to Lei Cannon, Chang Yuan ordered the troops to quickly clean up the battlefield, and then sent a report of victory to Jiang Qiang, saying that the main force of the 25th Brigade had been annihilated, and the commander of the 25th Brigade, Major General Naozo Nakano, had been killed.
The commander of the 117th Regiment, Gao Shujia, and the 132nd Regiment, Captain Ebi Mingrong. Currently, only the 12th Regiment of the 4th Brigade has not reported the battle report of the annihilation of the 25th Brigade Guard Group, but judging from the number of enemies annihilated,
The 25th Brigade did not fully reinforce the Ershilibao Airport. There should still be an infantry brigade stationed in Zhoucun and Zhangdian. Moreover, the Japanese Jiaoji Road garrison stationed in Zhangqiu, Zhoucun, and Zhangdian
The troops did not move with the 25th Brigade.
At the end of the telegram, Chang Yuan requested permission to storm Zhoucun, Zhangdian, and Zhangqiu, develop the offensive to the outskirts of Jinan, and prepare for a storming of Jinan.
Jiang Qiang called back and instructed the remaining Japanese troops in Chang Yuan, Zhoucun, and Zhangdian to be eliminated on the spot if they went out to reinforce, and then the Fourth Brigade would send troops to take advantage of the situation to attack Zhoucun and Zhangqiu. If the enemy did not go out to reinforce, the capture of Zhoucun would be postponed.
Zhangdian and Zhangqiu, leave some thoughts for the little devils to see if they will send more troops to reinforce Zhoucun and Zhangdian, and if they can create more fighter opportunities. At the same time, they ordered Chang Yuan and the Seventh Brigade to rush to the battlefield and start from
The captured weapons and ammunition will be replenished immediately. If the captured tanks and artillery can be used, they will be immediately equipped with the Third Brigade to strengthen the attack force. After that, the Third Brigade and the Seventh Brigade will rest on the spot and pay attention to air defense. In the evening, the Third Brigade and the Seventh Brigade respectively
Advancing westward from the south and north of the road, we waited in hiding on both sides of Zhangqiu, preparing to annihilate the Japanese troops who might come to reinforce Zhoucun and Zhangdian.
After reading Jiang Qiang's telegram, Chang Yuan knew that Jiang Qiang still wanted to continue fishing. If he took another bite of fat meat, he didn't know whether the little devil would cooperate. Whatever, let's prepare first. Chang Yuan commanded the third brigade to clean up.
On the battlefield, the military column of the rearguard brigade of the 25th Brigade arrived at Jinling Station.
At this point in the battle, although covert movement still needs to be emphasized, it is obvious that the speed of movement is more important than concealment. Peng Hu, commander of the 12th Teach Regiment of the Fourth Brigade, and Shi Tugen, chief of staff, led the 12th Teach Regiment and brigade workers.
When the barracks and guard battalion arrived at Maling Station, Wang Shuyou, commander of the cavalry battalion of the Fourth Brigade, and the Jiaodong Army had already arrived thousands of miles away. They also used their sabers to take down the Japanese station commander and a garrison team at the station.
The Fourth Brigade Cavalry Battalion is a prestigious unit. It made the original 10th Division suffer a lot under Cangzhou City. They are very familiar with the use of electrically detonated explosives. Before the 12th Regiment arrived, they were on the roadbed.
Explosives were buried on top of the train. The explosives were buried very carefully. They were calculated based on the speed of the train, the carriage, and the length of the front of the train.
Jinling was later to be the iron ore area of Jinling Mining and one of the main supply bases of iron ore in Shandong. There were many industrial and mining enterprises along the railway. At this time, due to the Japanese invasion, the mines that had been mined since the Spring and Autumn Period were occupied by the Japanese army.
, carried out predatory mining and transported iron ore to Japan through Qingdao. Moreover, the iron ore here is accompanied by copper ore, which is of high grade. After the little devil transports the ore back to Japan, it can not only smelt iron, steel, but also copper.
, used to make guns, cannons, bullets, and artillery shells, which in turn can be used to attack the Chinese. Therefore, the battle plan drafted by Jiang Qiang clearly states that after occupying Jinling, all the iron ore from the station and mine must be transported back
The Zhaoyuan mountainous area is used for iron and copper smelting, and provides raw materials for the arsenal. Moreover, the Japanese military personnel in the mines are classified and processed. The technicians must try to capture them and conduct patient persuasion and education, so as to allow them to join the Jiaodong Army and maintain the normal operation of the mines.
Production.
Of course, we don’t care about occupying the mines at this time. It is more important to eliminate the Japanese rearguard brigade first. Peng Hu and Shi Tugen were both company commanders and chiefs of staff appointed during the reorganization of Qixia County. They have grown up in the Jiaodong Army during the Anti-Japanese War.
The commander of the regiment and the chief of staff.
Seeing that the cavalry battalion had done everything it should do, and looking at the piles of stones piled on the platform of the station, Peng Hu knew that they were the iron ore mentioned in the battle plan. Peng Hu couldn't figure it out.
The commander is still young, but he knows so much. He even knows that there is iron ore in this train station. He really doesn't understand what else in the world he doesn't know.
After thinking about it, Peng Hu smiled. Commander Jiang is full of knowledge. The iron mines here are not new. Japan is in urgent need of steel during the war. After a few comparisons, Commander Jiang can know that there must be something at the station here without special investigation.
There is iron ore. If there is no iron ore, it would be wrong. It turns out that Zhuge Liang's ability to pinch and calculate in the play is similar to the teacher's wisdom, which is knowledge and analysis. It seems that I have to study harder, I don't know.
There are too many things, and he is far from the learning cadre that the commander said. If nothing else, if the commander asks him to manage the mining, then he will be blinded.
No one could have imagined that the fighting was about to begin. A commander of the Jiaodong Army who was born in rural Shandong and was illiterate since he was a child, could actually realize the truth that wisdom equals knowledge plus analysis at the small Maling Station. This is Jiang Qiang's
The brilliance is to turn the nearly illiterate cadres and soldiers into intellectual and learning talents who are thoughtful, cultured and capable of analysis and judgment through learning, so that the entire Jiaodong Group Army becomes a knowledge-based and learning army. In this way
The army is invincible!
The Japs might be arriving soon. Peng Hu had no time to think further. He immediately ordered Wang Shuyou and Shi Qianli to leave the engineers in charge of electro-detonating explosives and cooperate with the engineer battalion to prepare to blow up the Japs column. The cavalry battalion continued to disguise the Japanese troops towards Zhangdian and Zhou.
Movement in the village, to find out the enemy's situation, and wait for the opportunity to attack Zhoucun and Zhangdian. Order the battalions of the 12th Regiment, the engineer battalion, and the guard battalion to quickly deploy, preparing to ambush the Japanese rearguard brigade.
After the troops were deployed, Peng Hu vaguely heard an explosion coming from the east of Linzi not long ago. He knew that it must be the main force of the third and fourth brigade attacking one after another. He couldn't help but look at his watch.
, said to Chief of Staff Shi Tugen: "Why are the little devils taking so long to wait? It makes people anxious."
Shi Tugen was actually very anxious, but he was very tolerant. Hearing what Peng Hu said, he smiled and said: "Maybe the kid's neck hasn't been washed yet, so he was busy queuing up to wash it on the train for fear of soiling our knives."
It’s the neck!”
Peng Hu also laughed when he heard the humor of the Chief of Staff: "I like to fight the Japs the most. The Japs are short and stocky, with good shooting and stabbing skills. They don't care about their lives when charging. They are a bit like wild boars in the mountains.
It has a mouth full of fangs and is very fierce, making it enjoyable to fight."
Shi Tugen sighed and said: "Commander, what you said makes sense. But have you ever thought about it? Our Jiaodong Army has won many battles, captured a lot, has good equipment, strong men and horses, but it is easy to defeat the Japanese Army."
The regiments and divisions were attacked, and the swords were bloody, and they were invincible. However, there are still many troops in China who do not have equipment like ours, nor do they have the level of training we have, so their combat effectiveness is naturally low. When they fight against the Japanese, they use
Old-fashioned rifles, some regiments don't even have mortars, they are fighting the Japanese with their passion. If they fight against the Japanese, the Japanese will definitely have the upper hand, often because the Japanese have not yet entered the range.
The defenders were bombed by Japanese aircraft and artillery and suffered heavy casualties. This is one of the main reasons why the Japanese are so rampant."
Peng Hu said: "It's still the commander's old saying. When fighting a war, the first is command, the second is equipment, and the third is training. If we didn't have enough high-power explosives that could also be detonated electrically, this war would not be fought like this.
.”
As the two men were talking, the scout reported that the Japanese army column was about to arrive. Peng Hu stopped talking to Shi Tugen and ordered the troops to prepare for battle. The Japs did not have so many armored patrol vehicles available, and the rear guard group was riding in a column.
Coal truck.
Perhaps because they were in a hurry to catch up with the main brigade in front, the Japanese troops did not slow down when the train was about to enter the station. They sounded the whistle and prepared to pass quickly. As a result, haste makes waste, and the Japanese army wanted to pass the station quickly.
The Jiaodong Army wanted to destroy them here. As a result, after a loud rumbling sound, the Japanese army column collapsed under the roadbed like a frozen dead snake.
This coal car was different from the ticket car. As soon as the train overturned, all the little devils were thrown out of the car, and they were thrown all over the floor.
At this time, the Jiaodong Army opened fire. The infantry artillery, mortars, grenades, and light and heavy machine guns of the 12th Regiment Fire Support Battalion and each battalion and company were all aimed at the little Japanese lying on the ground. The shells were exploding, and the machine guns were firing.
Shooting, these Japanese who were still arrogant and sat on the train to exchange their experiences of rape, robbery and murder in China, all became the prey of the Eighth Route Army and were slaughtered mercilessly.
The Japanese captain was injured after his car rolled over. One of his arms was broken. He was grimacing in pain. He originally wanted to curse a few words and call the health soldiers to bandage him. But after the Jiaodong Army beat him, the Japanese captain forgot about the pain.
Crawling on the ground, he kept shouting at the Japanese soldiers who had fallen unconscious to wake up quickly, and used the overturned military columns as cover to exchange fire with the Jiaodong Army.
Most of the little devils were injured in the rollover, but the severity was different. In the episode of Jiaodong Army's fire attack, not to mention those who died, not to mention those who were seriously injured. They were unable to move and could only end up being killed. Those
The slightly wounded Japanese woke up at this time. Those who had guns grabbed them, and those who didn't grabbed them hurriedly crawled in front of the carriage, trying to use the train cover to avoid the Jiaodong Army's artillery shells and bullets.
At this time, it was obviously too late to organize resistance. The rifle shooters of the Jiaodong Army started shooting. They calmly chased the little Japanese who tried to resist and seek cover. They shot one by one and started a competition to kill the Japanese.
.The end of the Japanese rearguard brigade has come.
The Battle of Jiaoji Road implemented the tactics of dividing, encircling, and annihilating one by one. There was no particularly large-scale battle like the annihilation of the 20th Division, the 5th Division, and the 10th Division.
At this point in the second phase of the battle, the Japanese First Division had been basically wiped out, leaving only the infantry brigade of the 25th Brigade left to guard Zhoucun and Zhangdian. But it doesn't matter, this infantry brigade will be on the way sooner or later.
Dishes in the military bowl.
However, due to the cake-cutting style of fighting, the Japanese troops were cut off piece by piece like a cake cut by the Route Army. All units felt that the fighting was very unsatisfactory. For example, the 14th Brigade was wiped out near the Ershilipu Airport.
In the battle, there were only four infantry brigades and one field artillery brigade of Japs. They were also attacked by a large-scale artillery group commanded by Li Yannian. When the first brigade and the cavalry brigade came forward, the Japs were basically
The game was over, and many soldiers didn't even have a chance to fire a shot. The third and fourth brigades destroyed the 25th brigade and the military trains transported by rail were the same. The train was moving and was suddenly blown over. The little devils were like a group of
For the wounded who were injured in a traffic accident, it would be a bit wasteful to use a force as powerful as the Jiaodong Army to deal with the injuries that survived such a traffic accident. Therefore, Shunzi, Han Junsheng, Liu Qingshan, and Huang Hong
Several brigade commanders were now looking at the 33rd Division with fierce eyes; Chang Yuan and Lei Dapao were like good men and women who believed in the Buddha, devoutly hoping that the Japanese army would discover Zhoucun as soon as possible and Zhangdian's troops were empty.
, it is easy to be sneak attacked by the road army, so quickly send a division, no, it is best to send two divisions to reinforce, so that every soldier can have a chance to show good tactical qualities.
As soon as he saw that the Japanese had been wiped out and that his Seventh Brigade had traveled so far in vain and had yet to catch up with the battle, Liu Qingshan became furious. The veins on his forehead popped out. He looked back at the exhausted soldiers who had been marching continuously all night.
We couldn't bear it any longer. We yelled at the little devils for not being interesting. How could we have so few troops and without fighting? They were just making fun of me.
The more he scolded, the more excited he became. From Emperor Hirohito to Juichi Terauchi and Shunroku Hata, he scolded all the way to the commander of the first division, Shimomoto Kumiya. After scolding the little devil, Liu Qingshan began to complain about Jiang Qiang, saying that the commander looked down on the seventh brigade and handed it over to him.
The mission of the Seventh Brigade is purely useless. No, it is not even as good as a chicken rib. It is a bit chewy. In such an important battle, the Seventh Brigade is only asked to cooperate with the Three Brigades in fighting. It is obvious that the Seventh Brigade is damaged and cannot be used. This is absolutely
Isn’t it true? The 7th Brigade is still a first-class main brigade capable of conquering and fighting. It is invincible and invincible. The division commander should not have allowed the 7th Brigade to detour so far and travel so many unnecessary routes. Instead, he should have ordered the 7th Brigade.
Go directly to attack Jinan and seize the headquarters of the Twelfth Army of the Japs, so that the soldiers can get rid of the bad temper of being chased and beaten by the Japs all the way.
Liu Yi, the chief of staff of the Seventh Brigade, knew that Liu Qingshan had not won the battle and was worried. However, seeing that the more he said, the more outrageous he said, and even Jiang Qiang complained, so he quickly reminded him to pay attention to the impact and do more.
Self-criticism, other troops arrived at the battlefield on time, why couldn't our Seventh Brigade arrive on time? If the Third Brigade couldn't arrive at the battlefield on time, wouldn't the little Japs just rush to the Ershilibao Airport?
When the Japs discover that the 14th Brigade has been annihilated, they may rely on a station to hold on. If several thousand Japs build positions and hold on, even if our army can finally eliminate them, we may have to sacrifice at least several thousand people.
.
Liu Qingshan also said that it was smooth sailing, but he accidentally complained about Kaijiang Qiang. As soon as he heard Liu Yi say this, he knew that he had forgotten everything in his hurry. It was obvious that he did not arrive at the battlefield on time and he would not be criticized.
You still dare to complain and complain about Jiang Qiang, just to be punished?
Liu Qingshan's poisonous gas had nowhere to go, and he kicked a Japanese corpse with his foot. After Chang Yuan received the report of the arrival of the Seventh Brigade, he rushed to greet him. Since the 107th Division was wiped out and returned to Jiaodong to say goodbye, a few days passed in a blink of an eye.
After missing for a month, the reunion on the battlefield was naturally very cordial. After saluting Chen Yannian and Shunzi, the grassland walked directly to Liu Qingshan: Old Liu, how are you? It was a hard fight in Luzhong, right?
If it were Tao Zhuanghai, the artillery brigade commander, he would definitely check to see if any parts were missing. After a few jokes, Liu Qingshan's anger disappeared. Chang Yuan was honest and elegant, with a delicate mind, and would not say anything.
If you use foul language, open your mouth to express a sincere greeting.
Liu Qingshan was just out of temper because he was angry for a moment. He was a subordinate of General Tang Juwu. He had formed an army with General Tang Juwu in 1929. Jiang Qiang was a first-class brave and resourceful general.
He and Chang Yuan were comrades who had traveled all the way from the Northeast through thousands of rivers and mountains. The joy of reunion washed away all the anger just now, and said truthfully: The fight was very hard, with planes overhead and pursuers behind us, every day.
The battle resulted in heavy casualties. Fortunately, the troops were well-trained, had strong cohesion, and dared to fight and fought hard. They escaped from the enemy encirclement in time. However, when they broke through, the cannons and vehicles were all blocked, and the number of war horses was reduced a lot. Otherwise, otherwise
, hum, how dare a division of it chase its ass and chase it from Luzhong to here?
The Ludong Group was doing the job of pretending to be the main force and holding back the Japanese heavy-armed group, so the casualties were bound to be heavy. But when Liu Qingshan said it from the mouth of Liu Qingshan, whose will was stronger than steel, Chang Yuan was also frightened. Look at Shunzi again
, Chen Yannian, Liu Qingshan, and Liu Yi's military uniforms, although they were washed clean, were already covered in patches.
Chang Yuan didn't say anything else, and immediately ordered the logistics department of the third brigade to take out all the military uniforms and replace them with the seventh brigade; he ordered all the troops to hand over all the captured ammunition to the seventh brigade, the cavalry battalion, and the supply battalion to hand over the spare war horses.
, rubber-bottomed trucks were deployed to the 7th Brigade; the twelve field guns and shells captured from the Japanese army trains were all handed over to the 7th Brigade.
After giving the order, Chang Yuan said to Chen Dayong: Old Liu, these are still too few. I will immediately report to the commander and ask the logistics headquarters to urgently replenish the seventh brigade. All the logistics equipment of the first division is in Weicheng, and there is none.
Loss, you have whatever you lack. Also, we sent a report to the commander, suggesting that the commander order the first division, the fourth division, the cavalry brigade, the artillery brigade, and the air defense brigade to allocate key troops to supplement the seventh brigade. You can rest assured, the heroic seventh brigade
The brigade is also the first-class main brigade of our Jiaodong Group Army.
Liu Qingshan was moved to tears and hurriedly told Chang Yuan that what the Seventh Brigade lacked were heavy weapons, ammunition, medicines, war horses, and carts. The soldiers had been supplemented from the Qinghe Guard Brigade and the Qixia County Guard Brigade. As long as there were cannons, the Seventh Brigade was ready.
The artillery regiment can be put into battle immediately. The others are not needed. The Seventh Brigade has always handed over the spoils of war and cannot always reach out to its commanders.
