Chapter 278 The Ishihara Brigade is in a hurry
September 1, 1938, 7:55 am.
All the commanders of the Ishihara Brigade were shocked!
"His brigade commander, a large number of Eighth Route Army soldiers appear on the right wing of our position, with more than a thousand people!"
"Brigate Commander, there are a large number of enemy troops on the left wing of our army, and they carry a large number of heavy weapons!"
"The enemy troops behind our army are more than 7ooo people!"
For a moment, all the Japanese officers were shocked by the current battle situation!
The once rampant and arrogant Japanese troops were all extremely shocked. Now they are facing a dilemma they have never had before!
"hateful!"
"This is a desperate situation!"
"Our army only has more than 37oo people. In contrast, the Eighth Route Army has at least 13,000 troops, and our army has now been completely surrounded!"
"The situation is not optimistic!"
"Brig Commander, please order immediately, and our troops should break through immediately!"
At this moment, the brigade commander Kenji Ishihara was also sweating profusely. The situation was fully reflected in his expectations. The number of Eighth Route Army soldiers and their combat effectiveness were far from his expectations.
Facing the Eighth Route Army's all-round encirclement, they will break through the siege rashly, and there will be heavy casualties and no ten will remain.
On the contrary, if you stick to the waiting for help, there will be a glimmer of hope.
This glimmer of vitality lies in whether the Guangben United and Matsumoto Brigade can arrive in a very short time.
Suddenly, three consecutive telegrams completely broke Kenji Ishihara's last fantasy.
"His brigade commander, Colonel Guangben called, Guangben's corps were completely blocked in the Wudaoling area by Zhou Weiguo's headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, as well as the 772nd Regiment of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division, and are currently fighting fiercely with the enemy!"
"His brigade commander, Matsumoto brigade commander called, Matsumoto brigade, is currently fighting fiercely with the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army and cannot come to reinforce!"
"His brigade commander, our army's airport was destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, all fighter planes were burned, and all aircraft reinforcements were lost!"
At this moment, even Kenji Ishihara, who had not changed his face when Mount Tai collapsed, was completely crazy.
Reinforcements?
reinforce?
Now there is nothing!
victory?
To wipe out the Taihang Mountain White Tiger Column?
Now it seems like a complete joke!
In just two days, the Ishihara brigade before leaving 8,684 people, and now 2,326 people have been killed, and the number of minor and serious injuries is more than 1,000. Except for the Hirobe Regiment that fought in Wudaoling, the Ishihara brigade on the Fairy Lake battlefield has only more than 37oo people.
The only thing you can do is break through! Break through!
Suddenly, Kenji Ishihara thought of a reinforcement - Du Biao's puppet army security regiment in Baiqu City.
Immediately, the captain of the Japanese army Sato regiment said in surprise: "Yes, we still have reinforcements. As long as the commander Du Biao can lead his troops to arrive within 6 hours, cooperate with our troops to fight, and dig a hole from the encirclement, we will definitely be able to break out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately gave all the Japanese officers a shot of chicken blood, greatly enhancing morale.
We still have hope, we are not in a desperate situation yet, this is just a small bump we have encountered, we will definitely be able to overcome it!
But at this moment, an information from Baiqu City completely made all the Japanese army that had just boosted their morale go crazy!
Du Biao, the commander of the puppet army, led the entire security regiment, and all rebelled!
Long before the Ishihara Brigade troops entered Taihang Mountain, the Beihongmen brother had secretly contacted Du Biao and used force as a threat. Coupled with the persuasion of the iron-clad Old Master Du, Du Biao finally made Du Biao make up his mind.
Du Biao, the commander of the puppet army, gritted his teeth and said, "He treats me as a pug, does not treat me as a man, and is enslaved by others. Then I also want the Japanese to take a look. I am also strong, this dog, I will not serve you today!"
At this moment, all the hearts of all Japanese officers sank into the bottom of the valley!
Now I am completely isolated and helpless.
"Bang!"
The commander of the brigade, Kenji Ishihara, stood up and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, today my Ishihara brigade is in a desperate situation that I have never seen before. My great Japanese army was actually played with by a group of Eighth Route Army composed of peasants and beggars. Now, we can only fight to the death to repay His Majesty the Emperor!"
"It's better to be broken than to be broken!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the Japanese officers' eyes were red.
Random, arrogant, and pride are all rewarded!
At this moment, only by fighting to the death can one have a way out!
Kenji Ishihara pulled out his command knife and shouted: "Now I order all the Ishihara Brigade Ishihara Brigade to fight back immediately to the Eighth Route Army and break through from our right wing!"
"Hi!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At 8 a.m., the Eighth Route Army counterattack was launched completely!
"The Jingkang shame is not yet achievable."
"When will the hatred of the minister be destroyed?"
"Driving a long car and breaking through the Helan Mountains."
"I am determined to eat the meat of the Huns in hunger, and laugh at the thirst and drink the blood of the Huns."
"When I start over, clean up the old mountains and rivers and go to the sky."
Ouyang shouted: "Now I order each unit to launch a counterattack immediately and swear to destroy the Japanese invaders, never stop dead! Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The battle is over!
Our artillery regiment position has moved forward to the best location at this moment.
Long Dagu shouted: "Now I order to immediately carry out a full-coverage bombing of the Japanese positions, and I will fight all the shells to death!"
"fire!"
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Suddenly, dozens of cannons all roared loudly, like the thunder in the sky, with a huge sound!
One by one, the shells exploded on the Japanese positions. In an instant, the entire Japanese positions turned into a huge sea of fire.
Once upon a time, we were also bombarded like this. In the battle today, we swear to avenge our previous shame and be proud!
Sun Desheng held up his saber and shouted: "Caval Company, attack, attack!"
The Furious Brothers Company, 2 Tiger-type heavy tanks, and 3 Weasel armored vehicles, were also roaring angrily, ruthlessly crushing the Japanese positions, and any enemies and obstacles blocking them will be ruthlessly destroyed!
Jiang Daya's Second Regiment, Liu Tongluo's First Regiment, Li Yunlong's Independent Regiment, and Wang Hongkun's troops from the 385th Brigade attacked from all directions, with all forces, totaling 13,000 people, all of which were put into battle!
Vow to wipe out the Shiyuan Brigade in one battle!
~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At 12 a.m., the battle lasted for 4 hours!
The battle continued to escalate and the fiercer heightened. Our four armies repelled the Japanese army 12 consecutive breakouts, annihilated the number of Japanese soldiers to more than 3 ooo.
The Ishihara brigade, with only a few hundred people left, were all wounded, and at this moment they were all huddled on the position, carrying out the final, ineffective resistance!
"Stop the attack!"
At this moment, Ouyang suddenly issued an order to stop the attack.
Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao said: "Commander, the division headquarters called us to persuade the Japanese army to surrender!"
"Uh~~~~!" Ouyang.
How dare Ouyang refuse to obey the commander's orders and disobey the military orders, that is a taboo in the army.
At this moment, Ouyang made a decision to go to the front line of the battle in person, shouting to the Japanese army, and persuading the Japanese army to surrender.
In fact, Ouyang did not have any hope in his heart. Although the Japanese army was rampant, they were also very proud. They were deeply poisoned by the "Bushido Spirit" and had already put their deaths aside.
During the entire War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, especially in the early stages of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, both the Eighth Route Army and the National Army paid a heavy price to be able to capture a Japanese prisoner.
During the Battle of Xuzhou, a battalion commander of the National Army carried a half-dead Japanese wounded soldier and was about to be sent to the emergency station. The wounded soldier recovered slightly and bit off the battalion commander's ear;
Another communicator was collecting the telephone line and saw a Japanese soldier lying under the car. He was seriously injured and moaned continuously. The communicator took out gauze to wrap him in the wound, but the injured soldier raised his hand and stabbed him into the communicator's abdomen.
This shows how stubborn the Japanese army has reached, and it is difficult to capture prisoners as if they are ascending to heaven, let alone to surrender.
During the Battle of Xuzhou, tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers were killed in battle, but none of them were captured.
As far as Ouyang knows, in more than a year since the full war of resistance, the entire Eighth Route Army has captured only one Japanese prisoner.
In 1937, during the Pingxingguan victory, Chen Shiqu (founding general), the commander of the 686th Regiment of the 115th Division, personally captured the first Japanese prisoner during the Anti-Japanese War. This prisoner was the baggage force of the 79th Regiment of the 2oth Division of the Japanese Army, and the sergeant - Yukio Kato.
The commander of the Second Regiment, Jiang Daya, said, "Commander, based on my understanding of the Japanese army, Kenji Ishihara will definitely not surrender."
"Pussal to surrender is a waste of time. Once the Japanese army's ambition is completely aroused, our army will sacrifice more soldiers if it wants to destroy them, which will lose money!"
"Why!"
Ouyang also sighed and shook his head. He didn't know what Jiang Daya meant, but this was an order from the division headquarters.
At the same time, I can understand the orders I have made to the division headquarters.
"The Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially!"
This is not just a slogan, but a policy that the Eighth Route Army firmly implemented. In the eyes of the Party, the country, the army, and many people, this decision is very pedantic.
However, in the late period of the Anti-Japanese War, this slogan had changed qualitatively. When the Japanese army was in trouble, many people really began to give up resistance and surrender to our army!
This move will be very beneficial to our army's later operations!
The second update of "" is given, and the third update will be opened!
