Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

As Captain Xu said earlier, when attacking the position, the little devil's machine gun bunker would not be effective at all.As long as the little devil dared to shoot, these bunkers would be destroyed many times, and the speed was astonishingly fast.

The opening was torn open by the troops of the special division, and they just played for coordination and cover.However, according to the telegram sent by the Second Division, the batch of shells shipped earlier also played a very important role.

While cleaning the battlefield, many anti-gun tunnels of the little devil were blown down.It can be said that we were able to achieve such a quick breakthrough this time, thanks to the reinforcements dispatched by Commander He and the batch of shells! "

Following the chief of staff's explanation, Fu Zuoyi still smiled and said, "It's okay! It should be the credit of the Second Division, and I will still record it for them. As for the credit of the Second Reconnaissance Regiment, I will also report it to the headquarters at that time.

As long as the little devil's defensive position can be taken down as soon as possible, no matter whose credit it is, it is the credit of all the attacking troops.What's more, you and I both know that the special division is probably not very interested in such a contribution! "

Although he has long known the combat strength of the special division, Fu Zuoyi also sincerely admires it after experiencing it for himself.It has to be said that Fu Zuoyi once again admired Commander He who was much younger than him when it came to military training.

After the second division opened the scoring for the first time and took down the Japanese defensive position that had blocked them for three days.Fu Zuoyi also immediately instructed the second division to quickly advance to the rear of the Japanese army, trying to chase down those defeated little devils at the fastest speed.

Not long after, the first division and the third division also sent a victory call one after another, and the Japanese positions blocking them were repeatedly captured.For a while, the solid fortifications laid down by the North China Front Army in Langfang also declared a complete failure.

Seeing that the three main divisions under his command had all made major breakthroughs, Fu Zuoyi was naturally very happy.Immediately said: "Order the cavalry brigade to join the series of pursuit operations from now on, and make every effort to defeat the retreating Japanese troops."

After dispatching the equally elite cavalry brigade in his hand, he also sent out in one go.Fu Zuoyi's headquarters also began to move forward.And this night was undoubtedly a disastrous night for the Japanese army in Langfang.

Faced with many fortifications, they failed to hold out for too long in the hands of the Eighth Route Army before declaring their fall.The commander of the little devil's garrison in Langfang City immediately sent a telegram to Okamura Ningji in Beiping City for help.

Knowing that the front line of Langfang was defeated, the three main divisions and cavalry units of the 35th Army had swept across Langfang and began to push into Peking.Neiji Okamura also knew that there was not much time left for him to think.

'Order, all the defenders of Langfang retreated, and built fortifications on the front lines of Daxing and Fangshan.Second, ensure the safety of the passage from Beiping to Tianyan.All combat troops should pay close attention to building fortifications from now on to prevent surprise attacks by the Eighth Route Army.

In addition, a telegram was sent to the garrison in Tianyan, asking them to start building fortifications on the outskirts of Tianyan.The frontline troops block at all costs to buy time for the rear troops to build fortifications. '

Listening to the combat order issued by Okamura Ningji, the staff officer also said at the right time: "Your Excellency, Commander, should we continue to defend the troops deployed in Miyun, Pinggu and Jixian County, or let them withdraw to the city?

At present, the number of troops in Beiping City is not large. If the Eighth Route Army really sends troops to make a surprise attack, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long.Judging from the current battle, the Eighth Route Army over there is not strong enough to attack, so they don't need so many troops to defend, right? "

'withdraw!Why don't I want to withdraw these troops!But the question is, will the other party let us retreat safely?Once we retreat, the Eighth Route Army deployed there is bound to press on every step of the way.

If we really want to preserve our strength and withdraw, what we have to do now is to abandon Beiping and stick to Tianyan with all our strength.As long as we have the support of the navy, at least we don't have to worry too much about being surrounded and wiped out by the eight forces.

Damn it, the Kwantung Army hasn't made any progress, and even theirs is a mess.If they can make breakthroughs and progress at this time, perhaps the situation will not be so unfavorable to us. '

Thinking of the order sent by the military department before the war, it was to let the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army cooperate.But right now, the Northeast Field Army commanded by He Zhengdao successfully prevented the Kwantung Army from going south, preventing it from moving forward.

On the other hand, the North China Front Army could not resist the strong attack of the Eighth Route Army at all.Less than a week after the war, Shijiazhuang, Cangzhou and other places declared their fall and were taken back by the Eighth Route Army.

Such a progress in the war was undoubtedly not expected by many Japanese generals.The most troublesome thing is that the North China Front Army has lost its air supremacy right now.Even the Kwantung Army did not dare to easily send fighter planes into the air to fight.

The reason is simple. In the air battle that ended earlier, the Eighth Route Army lost less than ten fighters.On the other hand, when the aircraft carrier fleet arrived, all the aircraft participating in the battle were shot down and destroyed, including a flying team of the Kwantung Army.

From this result, the Japanese army can also see that the performance of their aircraft is far inferior to that of the Eighth Route Army.It is almost impossible for them to regain air supremacy without a new type of fighter that can compete with the eight-way fighter.

In fact, after these two rounds of battles, the Eighth Route Army Flying Regiment suffered some losses.Some fighters even had to be driven back to the arsenal for repairs.But these two air battles also gave the new pilots a workout.

It is a pity that due to the shortage of aviation fuel, the two flight brigades deployed in Taiyuan and Zhangjiakou were unable to continue to take off and fight at all.The only fuel available is more used to defend against the counterattack of the little devil's air force.

It can be said that as far as the current battle situation is concerned, if the little devil's fighter planes don't take off, neither will the Eighth Route Army's fighter planes.But the only aircraft active in the air are the reconnaissance aircraft of the Eighth Route Army.

In previous battles, most of the planes that could really fly in the sky were scout planes of little devils.But this time, it can only be said to be completely reversed.The little devil completely lost his right to control the air in the North China battlefield.

When Okamura Ningji began to deploy comprehensive blocking and defense, he also began to suggest to the Ministry of the Army whether to abandon the combat deployment of Beiping to defend the sky with all its strength.Regarding this suggestion, the Japanese military cabinet also began to hold emergency meetings.

In view of the current unfavorable situation in North China, there is also the unfavorable battle situation of the Kwantung Army.In the Japanese military cabinet, two voices soon appeared.One is naturally to defend Beiping, and at the same time send additional troops to reinforce the North China battlefield.

There is another kind, which is that abandoning Peiping is more beneficial to the Japanese army, which is currently short of soldiers.Even, some members of the military cabinet directly proposed to transfer the North China Front Army to join the upcoming expansion campaign in Southeast Asia.

When the main combat faction scolded the retreat faction, the cabinet minister who proposed the retreat also said directly: "Send additional reinforcements? Where are the reinforcements drawn from? The current war in the south is still in a stalemate.

If we deploy troops from the south to reinforce the North China battlefield, it will only lead to a defeat in the south.In this way, our current interests in South China will also be severely damaged and lost.

Instead of drawing troops from the South, then temporarily draw troops from our existing colonies.So how is the combat effectiveness of the troops, I think you know better than anyone else.Sending them over will not help solve the current crisis in North China.

In addition, have you seen the telegram sent by the Kwantung Army earlier?The destructive actions of the Eighth Route Army in the Northeast have already brought us huge threats and destruction.Many of our factories are currently in a state of paralysis.

Everyone should be clear that the Northeast plays an inestimable role in our jihad.If the factories in the Northeast cannot operate normally, our entire jihad will be affected.

Now give up Beiping and try to protect the two coastal cities of Tianyan and Qinhuangdao.At least we can ensure that we have two forward offensive positions in North China.With the cooperation of the navy, I believe it should not be difficult to defend these two places.

And our extra army troops can be invested in Southeast Asia.Compared with the resistance we are facing in China at the moment, I believe that the withdrawal of these elite troops will bring us more victories in Southeast Asia! "

Such a reasonable conclusion also began to overwhelm the nerves of the main combat faction.It has to be said that the rapid rise of the Eighth Route Army has indeed made many members of the Japanese military cabinet feel that the illusion of wanting to occupy China may be shattered!

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Neiji Okamura, who was deploying the blocking battle after receiving the final resolution issued by the country, undoubtedly breathed a sigh of relief.Through this resolution, Neiji Okamura can also guess that the cabinet ministers have realized that the war is very bad for them.

In this case, the Japanese army must adjust its combat deployment and find a way to find a new breakthrough direction.And the flames of war ignited in Europe at the moment undoubtedly made the Japanese army see their opportunity to dominate Asia.

Even now the rapid rise of the Eighth Route Army has caused them a certain crisis.But in fact, some large and medium-sized cities in China are currently under the control of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army also controls China's sea power.

As long as the absolute superiority in the navy is always maintained, the Japanese army can launch an attack on the inland of China at any time.Avoiding the edge now is nothing more than adjusting their combat deployment for the co-prosperity of Greater East Asia.

In fact, while the Japanese military cabinet made strategic adjustments.Not only was the North China Front Army issued an order to retreat to the sky, but also a new instruction was issued to the Kwantung Army to end its counterattack against the Eighth Route Army.

All troops participating in the war will be transferred back one after another to ensure the safety of the Northeast production base.At the same time, increase the security control of the Northeast, so that the Northeast, which is currently in a state of chaos, can quickly restore the stability before the war.

Regarding the combat instructions issued by the military cabinet, the commander of the Kwantung Army Umejiro undoubtedly said very unwillingly: "Baga! The battle has been going on until now, and we are asked to stop fighting. Then our earlier deployment, isn't it all in vain? "

Faced with Mei Meijirou's reluctance, the staff officer also said in a timely manner: "Your Excellency Commander, in terms of the current situation, I think it is actually understandable for the military to make such a decision.

As far as the current situation in Northeast China is concerned, our primary task is to ensure local safety and the stability of the factory.During this period of time, the destructive actions of the Eighth Route Army have had a very bad impact on us.

If we didn't have a certain material reserve earlier, I'm afraid that the ammunition and materials needed by many troops will be greatly affected.Once such consequences are caused, I am afraid that the ministers will also hold us accountable for our failure! "

Accompanying the words of the staff officer, Umejiro finally said: "I'm still not reconciled! Give the Second Division power, and I will allow them to use special bombs. In any case, the fortifications set up by the Eighth Route Army outside Jinzhou must be breached.

Even if we cancel the counter-offensive, we must let the Eighth Route Army know that the Kwantung Army is not easy to mess with.As long as the fortifications they set up in Jinzhou are broken, our troops behind can also attack from all directions to harass. "

'Your Excellency, Commander, if you use special bombs, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the international community, right? '

'At this time, who cares about the life and death of these people.As long as the empire is as strong as ever, no one will talk to us.What's more, the empire will soon take action against those European and American powers.

Since we will become enemies with them sooner or later, let's tell those people through this incident that the empire will complete our combat deployment at any cost during the battle.What's more, how can other countries not have special bombs? '

In order to express the anger in his heart, Umejiro finally decided to let the frontline troops use special ammunition.Although he knew that spreading this kind of thing would have a bad impact on their army and the image of the country.

But in fact, since the Japanese army launched a full-scale invasion of China, they have not used special bombs once or twice.Now the Northeast has entered winter, so why not use it just once?

Following Umejiro's order, the Second Division of the Kwantung Army as far away as Jinzhou, after receiving this secret order.The head of the division also felt that the commander's desire for revenge was really strong!

But as the head of the division, Yoshimoto Teichi also understands that there is no kindness at all on the battlefield.Any trick that helps to win may be used.And special bombs also exist in the weaponry of the main battle divisions of the Japanese army.

Whether to use it or not depends on the commander.To be honest, after the failure of the previous attack, Yoshimoto Teiichi also thought about using special ammunition.It's just that he doesn't want to bear such a crime.
