In the headquarters, the captain of the Ninth Regiment, Masao Dofu, was tied up and thrown into a corner. He stared at Yu Zhiqian who walked in, wanting to kill Yu Zhiqian with his eyes. Yu Zhiqian glanced at him and ignored him.
Masao Tao had other uses, and Yu Zhiqian was prepared to save his life. A Japanese colonel captured alive and a dead head. Obviously, the living one was more valuable.
"Have you found the coalition flag?"
"Found it! The Japanese didn't have time to burn it, it's complete!"
At this time, Xie Jinyuan did not know the importance of the regiment flag. During the battle of Changde, Yu Zhiqian had already captured a regiment flag. Only one and a half of this thing was left in the entire World War II, and one of them was a Japanese alliance flag. The captain hid it privately, and only took it out in later generations. The only thing captured was what the Americans fished out from the fire.
The Japanese alliance pays attention to the presence of the flag and the presence of the alliance. Even if the entire alliance is wiped out, as long as the alliance flag is still there, the alliance can be rebuilt. If the alliance flag is gone, then the alliance can be rebuilt even if it is fully staffed. , the establishment will also be cancelled.
Therefore, the Japanese alliance even specially equipped a guard team for the alliance flag. There is no combat mission, and the only responsibility is to protect the alliance flag. If the war is tense, or there is a danger of being completely destroyed, Destroy the Union Flag.,
When Yu Zhiqian and others attacked this time, they penetrated directly into the headquarters of the Ninth Regiment. The soldiers of the Ninth Regiment were eaten directly before they could make any reaction, so the regiment flag was completely preserved.
"Head, is this the coalition flag?" After entering the headquarters, Mao Sanbai came over, holding the Japanese coalition flag in his hand. Yu Zhiqian looked at it and nodded: "Yes, this is for Lao Xie, Lao Xie After putting this thing away, the entire war is over and the Japanese flag has not been captured. This may be the last one!"
After hearing what Yu Zhiqian said, Xie Jinyuan looked at the flag with some surprise: "Not captured?"
"Well, I'll tell you this later. This flag is more important than the lives of the Japanese!" After saying that, he gave the flag to Xie Jinyuan. Mao Sanbai stared at the flag reluctantly. Yu Zhiqian patted him on the head: "Don't look at it. Now, go back and show you mine, I already captured one when I was in Changde!"
"Really, have you ever been to Changde? Have you met General Yu Chengwan? They fight really well in Changde!"
Xie Jinyuan finally knew Yu Chengwan and looked at Yu Zhiqian: "Changde? Will the Japanese attack Changde in the future?"
Yu Zhiqian nodded: "Well, the Changde defense battle was fought by General Yu Chengwan, and he did a pretty good job!"
At this time, the headquarters' old-fashioned phone rang again. Yu Zhiqian glanced at Xie Jinyuan and Mao Sanbai, motioned them not to talk, and walked to the phone to answer it.
"This is the first brigade, this is the first brigade, asking for tactical guidance! Requesting tactical guidance!"
"How is the situation over there?"
"We have been attacked by fierce artillery fire from the Chinese army. Now we have started hand-to-hand combat. The Chinese army has strong firepower and large numbers. We have suffered heavy casualties, but the position is still in our hands. We ask for tactical guidance!"
The tactical guidance was to ask for support. After Yu Zhiqian heard this, he laughed. It seems that this guy Sun Yuanliang's true nature has not been exposed this time, and he is quite powerful: "I will ask the commander for instructions now!"
After finishing speaking, the person did not hang up the phone, but continued to listen to the voice. There was a constant voice coming from the other side of the receiver: "The Second Squadron has exchanged fire with the Chinese army at close range. What we are facing head-on should be the ace of the Chinese army." One of the teachers!”
"The Third Squadron requested tactical guidance again. Their squadron leader died!"
After listening for about half a minute, Yu Zhiqian spoke again: "This is the headquarters!"
"The third team received it!"
"The commander of the regiment has ordered to withdraw from the position immediately and make a strategic turn towards Shanghai. At the same time, the second brigade will cover your retreat!"
"The third team received it!"
After hanging up the phone, Yu Zhiqian tapped the phone twice with his fingers, and soon the second call came. It was from the first brigade: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, please give me tactical guidance, please give me tactical guidance!"
After Yu Zhiqian heard this, he squinted his eyes and started thinking. It seems that the intensity of the Chinese army's attack this time should be unprecedented, not inferior to the situation when the Chinese army attacked in the early stages of the Songhu Battle. The Japanese brigade could not withstand it so quickly. Already.
In the early days of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army was quite good. There had not yet been a situation where a Japanese brigade was chasing a division. The personnel were all veterans. Although the battle loss ratio was exaggerated, their courage and There is still confidence. In the early days, the Japanese fought in large-scale formations and attacked with absolutely superior firepower for this reason.
When the war entered the middle stage, the situation became chaotic like a pot of porridge, and all kinds of unbelievable things happened.
After the retreat order was given to the first brigade, the call from the second brigade came quickly. Finally, all three brigade received the retreat order, and three of the brigade captains called to confirm the authenticity of the order, and What exactly was the explosion that occurred at the wing headquarters just now?
Yu Zhiqian explained that a small group of Chinese troops had sneaked into the camp and had been dealt with. The commander of the regiment was injured and he took command on his behalf. He pretended to be the name of a staff officer who had been killed.
Although the Japanese soldiers were dubious, they finally ordered a retreat and rushed towards the location of the regiment's camp.
Opposite the Japanese, who were attacking the Chinese troops, Sun Yuanliang observed the situation of the Japanese positions in the distance: "Have the Japanese retreated?"
History has not rated Sun Yuanliang very highly, and when he was in Nanjing, he hid in a brothel until it was evacuated, and then made various surprising moves many times.
But he was really good at fighting, and his Eighty-Eighth Division was also an ace division.
"Well, the Japanese are retreating, but they are retreating in a hurry. We have already bitten the Japanese, and the Japanese here can't escape!" The staff officer under him was extremely excited. After three months of fighting in Songhu, they were not completely wiped out. Today is an opportunity for a Japanese team.
"Don't take it lightly. The Japanese reinforcements will arrive soon. Our purpose is to rescue the brothers of the 524th Regiment. By the way, has Xie Jinyuan contacted you?"
The staff officer nodded: "They have captured the Japanese regiment headquarters, captured the captain of the Japanese ninth regiment alive, and seized a regiment flag. Together with some brothers from the 87th Division, the total is more than 400
People, now prepare to intercept the Japanese's retreat, we will double-team in front and behind, and eat this Ninth Regiment in one bite!"
As the staff officer spoke, he made a gesture of squeezing someone with both hands, and finally brought his two hands together fiercely.
"Nonsense!"
After hearing this, Sun Yuanliang slapped the table: "This Xie Jinyuan is just fooling around. Can more than 400 of them stop the attack of three Japanese brigades? Our task is to rescue them. If they are eaten by the Japanese, the principal
How do you explain it over there!"
Sun Yuanliang didn't like Xie Jinyuan very much. In fact, many people knew that when retreating from Shanghai, Chiang Kai-shek's order was for the Eighty-eighth Division to find a stronghold on the banks of the Suzhou River to cover the army's retreat.
But Sun Yuanliang felt that doing so would lead to death. After thinking about it, he asked Xie Jinyuan to do it. At that time, Xie Jinyuan was still a deputy leader, not a full leader. Everyone has different interpretations of the specific reason, but Sun Yuanliang still has it.
I don’t believe the news that Xie Jinyuan killed more than 10,000 Japanese.
"Commander, if Xie Jinyuan really bites the Japanese at that position, it is good news for us. The Eighty-seventh Division and our regiment eating the Japanese will not be a big problem. You have to know that until now, there are still
No army has ever wiped out a Japanese regiment. If we do it, the principal will definitely reward you!"
Sun Yuanliang nodded, touched his head, and nodded: "Notify, bite the Japanese, and eat them!"
"yes!"
The lights in the Japanese headquarters were brightly lit. Yu Zhiqian did not extinguish all the lights, but instead created a noisy scene. There were figures flashing in the distance as they drove, seemingly preparing to retreat.
Seeing this situation, the Japanese army was worried that it would disappear completely, and quickly retreated towards the wing headquarters. However, a few hundred meters behind them, the Chinese army was biting them hard, and the Japanese had to separate a few.
Team, conduct a blockade.
The effect of this refueling tactic basically does not have much blocking effect, and can only slightly delay the pace of the Chinese army's pursuit.
According to normal circumstances, the Japanese will use cross-covering tactics when retreating, that is, one brigade will retreat, and another brigade will build a simple defense line behind it, and so on in an orderly retreat to ensure that they will not be bitten too much.
Die, but this time the order is very strange.
This is also the reason why the Japanese are suspicious, but the war situation is urgent and they have no way to confirm the specific situation of the order. They can only retreat like this in a swarm. The end result is that one Japanese squad after another is constantly being eaten by the Chinese army.
.
"Head, the Japs' vanguard is less than 200 meters away from us!"
At the entrance of the camp, Yu Zhiqian was lying on the ground, and Dai Qiang beside him kept reminding Yu Zhiqian.
"Keep putting in a little more, the flare is ready!"
"Already ready, just wait for the little devil to come in!"
Yu Zhiqian turned to look at Old Liu: "Old Liu, tell your men, don't be afraid. Just be like us later. The devils don't have three heads and six arms. They will die if they are shot. Don't worry later. Let's see what we do." Strike now!"
Lao Liu nodded and returned to his unit to convey Yu Zhiqian's order.
