As if knowing that Langdanzao wanted to hit someone at this time, the red general with a "sunflower" face was very happy, but he quickly told what he had captured.
"I don't have time to count, so I'm rushing to tell you good news! I don't even have time to go to each warehouse for on-site inspection, but according to the captive Japanese army, Shimen is not only the base camp of the 20th Division, but also along the Pinghan River.
The 108th Division and the 109th Infantry Brigade that attacked southward by railway all put their supplies base here. The military supplies of one and a half divisions are all in Shimen. Haha, deputy commander, we will make a fortune this time.
."
Damn it!
The news told by the red general almost choked even the local tycoon Liu Tuanzuo. He did not expect that knocking down a stone gate would lead to such huge profits. Where is a half division, plus the 20th division?
The baggage is the baggage of two and a half divisions, okay? What does it mean to hunt rabbits with straw? This is it.
If they can evacuate the Japanese supply base in Shimen, the two Japanese B divisions that are making a roundabout route to the south and preparing to attack eastern Shanxi will be hungry in a few days. If they are frantically heading south along the Ping-Han Line
If the retreating Chinese troops become a little bolder and fight the Japanese troops for four or five days, the chasing and escaping methods of both sides may have to be reversed.
More than 30,000 Japanese troops ran back crazily on their short legs, while tens of thousands of Chinese troops chased and beat them. If the commander of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Theater had been bolder and sent several divisions from Jingxing to block their retreat,
Will these tens of thousands of little devils also make dumplings?
Of course, Liu Lang knew that this was just a fantasy. Although the 108th and 109th Divisions were out of supplies, their one and a half ammunition base and food supplies were stronger than the tens of thousands of Chinese troops who had lost their armor and armor. Moreover, the Japanese army was still
The Army Air Force is far more powerful than the Chinese army. It can not only provide fire support at any time but also airdrop supplies. Even if General Huang is bold enough, I am afraid that those military commanders who have lost consecutive battles in the North China Plain will not have the confidence to fight this again.
After one battle, their supplies were not enough to support them in another battle.
Without their help, even if Liu Lang could unite with the 129th Division and the 17th Division, he would have suffered heavy losses if he tried to fight these little devils on the plains who were almost empty-bellied. Because there was no air support.
The bald man can help Liu Xiang by dispatching aircraft to him once, but he will not say that he will dispatch the air force to help every time. Compared with the fierce fighting situation in the southeast where hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting, Jindong is just a small-scale battle.
The battle was able to destroy the 20th Division and relieve the pressure on Taiyuan. The leader was already very satisfied.
His eyes are destined not to stay on the northern battlefield for too long. He is probably worried about the corrupt situation in the southeast, thinking about how to finish that battle without embarrassment!
"No wonder Saigenji Koichi said that the prisoner of war camp was temporarily guarded by the baggage regiment team of the 109th Division. It turned out to be because their baggage warehouse was here, haha! Come to think of it, the baggage warehouse was so easily captured because of Kawagishi Bunzaburo
It must be because this old Japanese soldier was so sick that he rushed to the hospital and sent the two divisions' baggage teams to the battlefield! I guess Lieutenant General Kawagishi Bunzaburo never thought that Shimen would fall so quickly, otherwise, he would have fallen immediately
Ordering the baggage to be blown up gives us an advantage." Liu Lang, who had figured out all the crux of the problem, laughed.
"This is the reason. When we attacked the baggage warehouse, there were only more than 300 Japanese troops defending them, and their combat effectiveness was completely incomparable with the previous Japanese troops. We only used machine guns to sweep them first, and the infantry cannons fired several times at their fortifications.
Artillery, they collapsed. There was no bombing of the warehouse that we had imagined before, leaving us with nothing. At least half of them dropped their weapons and surrendered. In order to preserve the supplies, I accepted their surrender. Deputy Commander-in-Chief, I
It’s not considered a violation of military orders!” the red general laughed.
"How can it be? No military order is final. It can be decided randomly according to the different battle situations. Big brother is naturally much better than me in this regard." Liu Lang spoke with perfect accuracy at this moment.
Liu Lang showed enough respect for this red general who had a tough temper and a somewhat miserable ending. As for why this man went to such a step, it will not be determined in the future, but as for his tactical command ability,
But few people doubt that he is an absolute warrior. For this alone, he is worthy of Liu Lang's admiration.
Sure enough, Liu Lang's rather rounded answer satisfied this man. He nodded heavily and said, "Deputy Commander-in-Chief, give me the order! What should our entire army do next?"
"If there is no time to count, we will not count. In this way, all the commanders and fighters of the 343rd Brigade participating in the battle are ordered to put on Japanese military uniforms, ignore everything, and do their best to transport supplies. I will lead the bayonet battalion to complete all the rest of the battle." Liu Lang quickly made a decision.
.
"Move them all into the car? I'm afraid the car can't even fit in it!" The red general's face showed a trace of distress.
What is the trouble of happiness? This is the rows of baggage warehouses and mountains of materials piled in the open air. Not to mention 130 trucks, even if it were doubled, it would be very difficult.
"I remember that the Japanese army transported supplies to Jingxing County. There were trains, right?" Liu Lang was very sure, "There are definitely Chinese people at the train station who know how to drive trains. Find them and tell them that as long as they can help our army transport supplies, we will
If he is willing, he and his family can board the train and evacuate to Shanxi with us and be given generous settlement expenses. Also, the same goes for the porters. As long as they think they are still Chinese, they can move them for me and move the Japanese.
The warehouses are emptied, not even a grain of rice is left for me. Are you afraid that the Japanese will come back for revenge? It doesn't matter. If you want to leave, come with us. Even if you don't want to leave, it doesn't matter. I have thousands of Japanese prisoners of war here. All they need is
If you dare to attack my people, I will dare to hang the heads of ten times the number of Japanese soldiers on the Taihang Mountains the next day."
No wonder the eldest son of Xiyuanji Temple was so frightened just by hearing his name that he rushed over to make an exchange. This murderous intention was really serious! Liu Lang's murderous words made the red general who had experienced many battles stand on end.
.As long as the Japanese army dared to carry out retaliatory massacre at Shimen, he had no doubt that this man really dared to kill all the Japanese prisoners of war. The Battle of the Great Wall in which thousands of wounded Japanese soldiers froze to death in the wilderness is not just a legend.
. Even the Japanese Kwantung Army is still known as "Colonel Beast"!
Comrade Lin Xiaoshun was very smart at this moment, and soon imitated Bunzaburo Kawagishi's tone and sent a safe message to the Peiping headquarters, saying that after nearly forty minutes of hard fighting, the sneak attack troops of two Chinese infantry regiments were repulsed, and now
The enemy had fled to the mountains and asked Peking to dispatch Army Air Forces to bomb and pursue their broken troops, so as to annihilate all these daring Chinese.
General Juichi Terauchi, who was waiting anxiously in Peiping, was very pleased. Uncharacteristically, he did not angrily reprimand Bunzaburo Kawagishi for his carelessness, which caused Shimen to be so heavily attacked by the Chinese army. Instead, he encouraged Bunzaburo Kawagishi who was already finished.
The students continued to increase the intensity of combat in the Niangziguan area, striving to break through the Chinese army's defense line in the Niangziguan area as soon as possible and advance towards Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi Province, in order to resolve the dilemma of the Banyuan Division.
It's not that Army Lieutenant General Bunzaburo Kawagishi has face, but that the Battle of Jindong is too important. As the top boss of the Japanese Northern China Expedition Force, the Army General who was dazzled by the smooth war in the North China in the past two months is too arrogant.
, ordered the Itagaki Fifth Division, known as the "Steel Army", to attack Xinkou in northern Shanxi.
He originally thought that the Fifth Division, with a strength of nearly two divisions, would be as powerful as it was in North China, capture Shanxi, the most important province in North China, and then approach Shaanxi and then go straight to southwest China. Take the legend
At the same time, it can also cut off all retreat routes for the Chinese government.
It has to be said that the army general Juichi Terauchi formulated the Japanese army's North China dispatching force strategy by drawing arrows on the map. It is very imaginative. If Itagaki's fifth division can really have the superior combat effectiveness as he thought, he can attack it in one fell swoop.
After descending from Shanxi and then entering Shaanxi to threaten China's last barrier to the southwest, the army general will most likely become a field marshal.
In fact, the combat effectiveness of the Itagaki Division cannot be said to be weak. The Japanese army's permanent divisions generally have a backup division dedicated to replenishing military resources. For example, the backup division of the 6th Division is called the 106th Division, and the backup division of the 8th Division is called the 106th Division.
The regiment is called the 108th Division, but the Fifth Division is different. His reserve division has always been combined with the main division and is collectively called the Fifth Division.
In other words, the total strength of the Fifth Division is equivalent to two divisions, with a total number of more than 50,000 people. In terms of numbers alone, it is equivalent to the strength of the two armies of China. In terms of combat strength, it is at least equivalent to
The strength of five Chinese armies and ten divisions.
However, such a powerful Fifth Division encountered a head-on attack by hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops at Xinkou. Not only did the proud artillery also encounter a strong opponent.
Even in the past time and space, Shanxi Old Man's 300 mountain cannons caused the Banyuan Division to suffer a lot. If Niangzi Pass had not fallen and the Jindong defense line was broken through by the 20th Division, Banyuan Division would not know how much it would have to pay.
Only in this way can we invade Shanxi. Not to mention, the ten mountain artillery regiments formed by the old man from Shanxi and the five heavy artillery regiments exchanged from Liu Lang had twice the firepower of the past time and space.
Therefore, the anxious Japanese army general could only comfort his lieutenant general, whom he also counted on to help him realize his dream of becoming a marshal!
However, in response to this request to send the Army Air Force for bombing, I could only express tactfully: Sorry, I am powerless. At most, I can only send a reconnaissance plane to circle around to show that the Imperial Army Air Force is still there.
What kind of bomber formation was sent to bomb in such weather? It became an international joke that the Baga's crashed into the mountain in the heavy fog.
Being able to send a light reconnaissance plane around Shimen is already a great honor to the Lieutenant General of the Army.
After receiving this "sincere" reply from the Army General of the Japanese Army Command in Peiping, Liu Lang put his heart in his heart. God was so helpful. If he didn't move the Japanese army's warehouse until even the mice starved to death, he would be so sorry.
Gods and Buddhas all over the sky took care of me.
Xiyuanji Koichi was willing to go all out for his compatriots. Not only did he deceive the army generals who were far away in Peiping, but he also went to the field hospital in person. As the highest-ranking officer in Shimen City, he asked the recalcitrant Japanese troops to put down their weapons, and at the same time personally gave him
The prisoner of war camp outside the city called and ordered them to surrender and not to harm the Chinese prisoners of war.
His status as a major in the Japanese army may not be that great, but the surname Xiyuanji has great appeal.
