The Japanese camp seemed so quiet in the darkness. Suddenly, a huge explosion sounded. A shining mushroom cloud rose in the darkness, awakening the sleepy Japanese soldiers.
"What happened? Where did the explosion occur? Is it the Chinese army coming?" a Japanese soldier asked confusedly, and then looked towards the direction of the explosion, which turned out to be the city of Jiujiang.
Then, the second explosion, the third explosion...
Then, there was an explosion on the Japs' southern position.
"Nani? Baga!"
"Tas gives it! I don't want to die yet!"
"Help!"
The flying soil was mixed with the blood and debris of the Japanese army.
Then came the screams of the Japanese soldiers.
…
However, after all, only a few Japanese troops were hit by the bombs, and there was no way to hit all of such a large position.
…
Outside the position, Sun Tongxuan's troops, who had been prepared for a long time, saw the explosion finally sounded and immediately began to attack.
"Rush, liberate Jiujiang!"
"Liberate Jiujiang!"
"Liberate Jiujiang!"
Since the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese army has not been able to regain a single city. Therefore, the slogan "Recover Jiujiang" has increased the morale of all soldiers several times. If possible, who would want to go to the battlefield to fight for the loss of the country?
…
"Order, all warriors who can still fight, counterattack immediately and hold their positions." A Japanese captain organized a counterattack and said, "Yours, go to the headquarters immediately and report."
"Hi!" A Japanese soldier ran towards the city. He didn't know that what was waiting for him in the city was the God of Death.
Zhou Weiguo and others saw that Sun Tongxuan's troops had launched an attack, and immediately began to attack the Japanese army from behind. First, they threw many grenades into the Japanese army's position, and then they fired with submachine guns.
The Japanese soldiers never imagined that in addition to the enemies in front, there were enemies behind them. Perhaps some Japanese soldiers thought of it, but the attack in front left them no time to deal with it.
Because of the explosion, there were already several small fires on the Japanese position. You can see that some Japanese soldiers have fallen forever on the position, some are screaming, and some are shooting with rifles. Some soldiers have turned their guns.
The mouth was facing the direction of Zhou Weiguo and others. But Zhou Weiguo and others were in the dark and the Japanese army could not see clearly.
For Zhou Weiguo, the more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers in this position were already a turtle in a urn. The first bombs killed and wounded some, then the grenades killed some more, and the subsequent strafing cleared some. Coupled with the attack by Sun Tongxuan's troops, now the Japanese soldiers
There are less than 500 people in the southern position who can fight. It only lasts a few minutes.
The Japs on other positions did not dare to provide support easily, because on the other three sides, Sun Tongxuan arranged for feint attacks.
…
"Moses Moses?" A Japanese soldier called frantically, but no one at the headquarters answered the phone.
"How is it?" the Japanese major asked anxiously, and then fired a bullet forward.
"No one answered. It is estimated that the previous explosion in the city was from the headquarters."
"Nani?"
"Hey, otherwise, if the command headquarters heard the gunshots, they should have called to inquire. Major, what should you do now?"
The Japanese Major hesitated. Originally, they did not have enough ammunition. Now they are attacked at night. It seems that the headquarters has been taken over by the enemy. This battle cannot be fought. Otherwise, all the soldiers will die. "Retreat, retreat to the city to command."
Headquarters, ensure the safety of the commanders. If all members of the headquarters are wiped out, break out to the north and go to the Yangtze River. At the same time, send a telegram to the general headquarters to ask the navy to respond."
"Hi!"
…
Subsequently, the Japs in the southern position of Jiujiang began to retreat into the city. Although there were attacks inside the city, it was obvious that the number of enemies inside the city was not as large as that outside the city.
However, what they never expected was that the enemy in the city was Zhou Weiguo's special forces.
In the darkness of the city, Zhou Weiguo allowed the special forces to occupy the commanding heights, and at the same time formed a crossfire. The Japanese were rushing in, and they were simply risking their lives.
"Hey, little devils, look at your grandpa." Yang Dali smiled, pressed the trigger, and bullets poured out.
"It's up to you!" Suning was on the side, also smiling, and kept attacking.
Zhou Weiguo raised his eyebrows. These two boys kept their hands on each other. After all, if they were beaten, they would be harvested.
The Japanese commander originally wanted to break out of the encirclement, but as soon as he entered the city, he was dumbfounded. More than a hundred Japanese soldiers fell directly under fire.
"Go back to the position! Go back to the position!" the Japanese major shouted, and then ran out of the city again.
But in the position outside the city, Sun Tongxuan's troops had already advanced two-thirds. It could be said that the distance from the Japanese was less than 100 meters. There were pursuers in front of them and tigers and wolves behind them. The Japanese major knew that he could not escape. Use
He shouted in blunt Chinese, "We surrender! We surrender!" He was the first to throw the weapons in his hands to the ground.
Subsequently, the remaining 300 or so Japanese soldiers also dropped their guns on the ground.
Zhou Weiguo walked out of the darkness with a serious look on his face. His policy has always been to take no prisoners. With his gun in hand, Zhou Weiguo continued to move forward, shooting at the Japanese troops while shouting in Japanese, "You think you are surrendering by throwing down your weapons?"
, do we accept it? Then, what should we do with those dead Chinese people and soldiers? Who will avenge them? Yalu! Take up arms! Don’t you most admire the spirit of Bushido? How can you surrender! Take up arms!"
"Yalu!" The Japanese major was angry. He was about to surrender, but he was not allowed to surrender. "Who are you? Are you the commander of this army?"
Seeing that Japanese soldiers continued to fall under his gun, Zhou Weiguo changed the magazine and replied in Japanese, "The person who wants your life."
The Japanese Army Major never expected that the enemy would shoot while they were talking.
Seeing this, other Japanese soldiers knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly, and said, "Let us go."
There are also some Chinese words mixed in, "Let us go, we are Chinese too!"
After hearing these words, Zhou Weiguo realized that this was the Botian detachment in the Wuhan Battle, and most of the soldiers were compatriots from Taiwan! But they took up guns and killed many Chinese people and soldiers.
Zhou Weiguo put down his gun and smiled bitterly. This is China at this time. Taiwan is still under Japanese rule. Chinese people kill Chinese people. This is the fate of a backward and weak country.
After a while, Sun Tongxuan also arrived in front of Zhou Weiguo. The Japanese soldiers had been controlled. Seeing Zhou Weiguo's expression, she said, "Brother, don't you want to keep prisoners?"
"Of course I don't want to, but the group in front of me are also Chinese." Zhou Weiguo sighed, "In 1895, during the Sino-Japanese War of 1895-1895, the Qing government was defeated and the Treaty of Shimonoseki was signed. The Qing government transferred the Liaodong Peninsula, Taiwan Island and all affiliated
The islands (including the Diaoyu Islands) and the Penghu Islands were ceded to Japan; "compensation" for Japan's military expenditure was 200 million taels of silver; and later an additional 30 million taels of "redemption fee" were added; Shashi, Chongqing, Suzhou, and Hangzhou were opened as treaty ports, and Japan
The government may dispatch consular officers to station at the above ports, and Japanese ships may sail into the above ports to pick up passengers and load goods; Japanese subjects may engage in various manufacturing processes at will in China's treaty port cities, and ship and import various machines at will, and their products
Exemption from all miscellaneous taxes and the convenience of setting up warehouses and inventories in the mainland; Japanese troops temporarily occupy Weihaiwei, and the Chinese government pays an annual occupation fee of 500,000 taels of silver. Japan will not withdraw the occupying troops until the final indemnity is paid.
The force fighting us is the Botian detachment, and most of the soldiers in this detachment are Taiwanese." As a national defense student and a member of the People's Liberation Army of later generations, he naturally knew that after the Sino-Japanese War, Taiwan was completely destroyed and the Japanese occupied it.
Taiwan has been here for 50 years, which is three or four generations.
"That's it." Sun Tongxuan sighed. He was born in 1895. There was nothing he could do about such an incident. However, as they were both Chinese and at war with each other, the source of all these evils was naturally Japan.
"Okay, let's go help solve other positions." Zhou Weiguo said.
Subsequently, the soldiers behind Sun Tongxuan began to enter the city from the south of Jiujiang, helping the national army soldiers in other directions to attack the Japanese army from within.
…
At 5:21 a.m. on August 18, 1938, the battle ended and Jiujiang was liberated. Sun Tongxuan's troops captured 2,654 Japanese soldiers, most of whom were Taiwanese. At the same time, Sun Tongxuan sent a clear code telegram:
This is to inform the people of the Republic of China: The 12th Army of the 3rd Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army attacked Jiujiang at night on August 18, annihilated thousands of enemies, and captured 2,654 people. Jiujiang has now been liberated. I would like to express my condolences that since the Anti-Japanese War
To the fallen soldiers and civilians, I express my condolences to the former Prime Minister, Mr. Sun Yat-sen, and to the entire Republic of China.
As soon as this report came out, the whole country was in an uproar! The Japanese army was also in an uproar! Other Kuomintang troops, stimulated by Sun Tongxuan, launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army opposite them!
Jiujiang was liberated, what a great achievement! What Sun Tongxuan could do, I can do it too! Wasn't it just to take advantage of the Japanese army's shortage of military supplies?
For a time, it was difficult for the Japanese to deal with them.
…
"Brother, my soldiers informed me that the equipment arrived last night, didn't you?" Zhou Weiguo looked at Sun Tongxuan and said.
"Okay, let's go and receive the equipment!"
Later, Zhou Weiguo took Sun Tongxuan and others to the place where he piled equipment.
Then, Sun Tongxuan looked at the wooden boxes in front of him and opened them. Sure enough, they were all medium and formal. Seeing this, he was in a good mood and asked his subordinates to click through them. Although he had already sent a telegram to Lao Jiang explaining the battle process,
In front of the people of the whole country, only his 3rd Army and 12th Army are the main force.
"Brother, you really are." Sun Tongxuan thought about the content of the clear telegram in the morning. She still felt sorry for Zhou Weiguo, but Zhou Weiguo insisted not to bring his name. He said that he was in enemy-occupied territory now. If he brought his own
The name is not easy to mix up. Seeing Zhou Weiguo's insistence, Sun Tongxuan also compromised.
"Commander, all the equipment is ready." A major general said to Sun Tongxuan.
Sun Tongxuan nodded, looked at Zhou Weiguo, took out a pile of paper from his jacket pocket, and said, "Brother, this is a cashier's check from HSBC Bank, it's 2.54 million! It can be exchanged at any HSBC bank. Keep it, brother!"
"
Zhou Weiguo took it, looked at it, then put it away and said, "Thank you very much, brother!"
"Hey, you're welcome, brother!" This time, if it weren't for Zhou Weiguo, he would still have to spend some effort to capture Jiujiang. It was he who accepted Zhou Weiguo's favor.
