Chapter 1013 Chapter 1000 Chapter 17 I am so happy that I am a little early

Later, the Japanese army had no choice but to bite the bullet and place a large number of troops into the position, resulting in heavy casualties.

Gao Jiu believes that such a deal is very worthwhile. It is absolutely cost-effective to use steel and explosives to exchange for enemy heads.

The coalition forces did not worry about ammunition at all. There was an arsenal in Nanyang City and a large arsenal in the mountainous area of ​​Zhiyuan County, southwest Shandong. Jiang Xiaomei was the first factory director, and she poured a lot of heart-wrenching pain here.

Gao Jiu felt sad when he thought of Jiang Xiaomei, and hated the Japanese devils more and more, and commanded the troops to continuously consume the Japanese army's forces.

That night, Li Chengwu led two special operations squadrons to leave Pingle County and prepare to go to Taoyuan Town. According to information, the Japanese army established a large material military station in Taoyuan Town. Li Chengwu's mission was to destroy the Japanese material military station.

Let the Japanese army have no food to eat and no ammunition available, and accelerate the Japanese army's retreat.

Since he went to Taohua Mountain, Li Chengwu was the first to guard Taoyuan Town. At that time, he led Shi Jianlong and Liang Shihu who had just surrendered, the third squadron of the Taohua Mountain Guerrillas composed of puppet troops, and was stationed in Taoyuan Town very much.

For a long time, I am so familiar with the situation here that I am no longer familiar with.

At that time, in order to deal with the unexpected situation, they even dug an authentic tunnel below, which is now just in handy.

Li Chengwu and others took advantage of the night to pass the blockade of the Japanese and puppet troops and arrived near Taoyuan Town.

In order to find out the situation of the Japanese temporary reserves of materials, Li Chengwu led two special forces into the tunnel and entered Taoyuan Town.

The exit of the tunnel is just below the barracks where Li Chengwu and the others lived. After leaving the tunnel, you can see with the help of moonlight that military supplies like hills were piled up in the yard of the barracks.

Li Chengwu was not in a hurry to take action. He observed around and found that in addition to this yard, there were also a large number of supplies piled up on the streets. After all, there were hundreds of thousands of Japanese and puppet troops here, and the reserves of supplies were quite large.

Li Chengwu first killed the Japanese sentry on duty in the yard, sent a special forces member back from the tunnel, notifying the special forces members who were staying outside to bring buckets of gasoline and come over through the tunnel.

Li Chengwu and the others poured gasoline on the materials piled up in the yard and on the street. After lit the fire, they quickly got back to the tunnel.

Before the battle began, the residents of Taoyuan Town had been transferred to the underground party's anti-Japanese base in advance, and Li Chengwu and others could sabotage them.

The fire started to burn, and the Japanese officers and soldiers came out in chaos to put out the fire.

Soon after, the fire became stronger and stronger, and even the surrounding houses were ignited, and the Japanese and puppet troops had no ability to put out the fire.

Soon after, the fire detonated the ammunition piled there, and Taoyuan Town was basically razed to the ground amid the violent explosion.

Jinan City, the 12th Japanese Army Command.

"Hisser Commander, the material station in Taoyuan Town was burned down by the enemy, and the supply of materials was in full swing." said the Chief of Staff.

General Haneda was very depressed and said, "What should I do if this continues? I have said a long time ago that Taohua Mountain is a hard bone, and attacking Taohua Mountain is definitely a loss. Not only that, if you offend Gao Jiu, you will never be at peace in the future.

day.

But the Minister just refused to listen and insisted on going to Taohua Mountain. The Huang army had already suffered tens of thousands of soldiers and was now out of ammunition and food. Should we still make the soldiers hungry and carry empty guns to charge?

”

The Chief of Staff said: "Your Excellency Commander, it's not the time to complain. Seeing that the troops are running out of ammunition and food, please think of a solution quickly. What should we do next?"

General Haneda said: "I really don't know what to do. I'd better report the situation here to the front army truthfully."

The Chief of Staff immediately drafted a telegram and sent it to the North China Front Army.

After reading the telegram, Tu Feiyuan was very angry but helpless. He said weakly: "I didn't expect that a small Taohua Mountain would be so difficult to fight like a copper wall. Kung Village, what do you think you should do now?"

Tu Feiyuan really felt scratching her head now. He also thought that the guys in the base camp were in the rear all day long, not understanding the situation ahead, and blindly commanding there, which led to such an embarrassing situation in front of him.

He had no choice but to ask General Komura for advice.

The commander of the Hongcun village said: "This battle cannot be fought like this anymore. Our army has no air support. Gao Jiu's bombers bomb our army every day, causing a large number of soldiers to die every day. Now the front line troops are about to run out of ammunition and food.

, this situation cannot be continued."

Tu Feiyuan said, "I know all of these. Just tell me what should we do now?"

Gangcun said: "Since the army has surrounded Taohua Mountain, it must be defeated no matter what. Otherwise, it will not only not only fail to explain to the superiors, but will also seriously undermine the morale of our army. Give the front line the dead orders and let them

You must take down Taohua Mountain at any cost.

As for logistics supply, the task was handed over to the security forces of the Public Security Army to complete, and they were asked to send heavy troops to protect the transportation line.

As for the attacks they suffered by Gao Jiu, no matter how many people were killed or injured, it didn't matter. They would also give them a death order. If they lost their supplies, their superiors would be punished."

Tu Feiyuan thought this was the best way now, so he said, "Okay, just give orders."

There were four divisions of the Japanese army besieging Taohua Mountain. After receiving the death order issued by the commander of the Gang Village, the division commanders also knew that if they did not take down Taohua Mountain as soon as possible, they would have to be in a serious shortage of supplies.

There is only one way to retreat.

Seeing the enemy was ahead, the division commanders were unwilling to accept it. So many soldiers who had died under their command were so shameless that they could not accept it.

They issued a death order to their subordinates, demanding that they must take down Taohua Mountain at any cost.

At two o'clock in the afternoon that day, each of the four Japanese divisions dispatched a reinforced infantry regiment, and under the cover of artillery fire, he launched a general attack on Taohua Mountain at the same time.

The Taohua Mountain guerrillas and underground party officers and soldiers guarding the mountain couldn't help but feel their scalp numb when they saw the Japanese army rushing up like locusts at the foot of the mountain.

This time, there were too many Japanese coming up, and they couldn't help but feel a little worried.

The soldiers also knew that only by defending Taohua Mountain could everyone have a way out, so everyone mustered up the courage to load the bullets and prepare to repel the Japanese attack.

Under the cover of a large amount of artillery fire, the Japanese army began to charge towards the mountain.

The guerrillas and underground party officers and soldiers opened fire violently at the Japanese army. The Japanese soldiers fell down one by one and rushed up one by one, making the officers and soldiers feel ruthless.

At this moment, the fierce bombardment of the Japanese army suddenly began again.

Under normal circumstances, in order to avoid accidentally injuring one's own people, the Japanese artillery will stop shooting when the troops launch a charge.

But this time, the Japanese commander did not care about the accidental injury of his soldiers in order to set up the position as soon as possible, so he directly ordered the artillery to open fire and bomb the defenders' positions. This time, the casualties of guerrillas and underground party officers and soldiers

The speed has become faster.

The Japanese officers and soldiers took the opportunity to attack upwards.

Zhang Quan was anxious, and he didn't care about so much, so he ordered the artillery position deployed on the reverse slope to bombard the front of the position.

The enemy and our shells flew around the hilltops and hillsides, and casualties on both sides increased dramatically.

After fierce battles, the Japanese army finally could not bear the huge casualties and began to retreat.

The guerrillas and the underground party officers and soldiers had just breathed a sigh of relief, but found that a large number of Japanese soldiers suddenly came up from the foot of the mountain.

It turned out that in order not to give the defenders on the mountain a chance to breathe, the Japanese army organized another infantry corps behind the infantry corps that had just been put into operation. When they saw that the Japanese army in front had retreated, they immediately replaced them and continued to go to the scene.

He launched a fierce attack on the mountain.

After all, the number of defenders on the mountain was limited. After this period of battle, there were many casualties and the troops were short of strength and they had no ability to rotate. The officers and soldiers were very tired and gritted their teeth to continue fighting with the Japanese army.

After the last artillery bombardment, the Japanese artillery summarized its experience. This time the artillery was fired more accurately. Their artillery could actually explode twenty or thirty meters ahead of their troops, giving underground party armed forces and special forces members.

It caused major casualties and effectively supported the Japanese attack.

The Japanese army quickly rushed to the top of the mountain. The defenders on the mountain could not resist the enemy's attack, so they had to retreat along the traffic trench.

In this way, the first line of defense outside Taohua Mountain was broken through by the Japanese army.

The Japanese army occupied the defense line outside Taohua Mountain, and the morale of the officers and soldiers was greatly boosted. They were not tired enough and continued to advance towards the depth of Taohua Mountain.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Quan knew that Taohua Mountain Village could not be defended, so he had to evacuate all the people in Taohua Mountain Village according to the final plan, go up to the main peak of Taohua Mountain, and enter Taohua Cave.

The Japanese army flocked in from all directions and occupied the airport, living area and factory area in Taohua Mountain. Even the arsenal fell into the hands of the Japanese army.

If it were not for preparation in advance and when retreating, explosives were detonated in the arsenal, otherwise the secrets of many advanced weapons in the arsenal would fall into the hands of the Japanese army.

Zhang Quan stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the Japanese soldiers all over the mountains and fields, and was extremely sad to see that the Taohua Mountain Village, which he had worked hard for many years, was occupied by the Japanese army. He began to regret that he did not listen to Gao Jiu, which led to such a tragic pain now.

The result.

The saddest thing was Feng Xiucai. He had already regarded this place as his home. Every grass, every brick and tile in the mountains was poured into his efforts. He saw the fires ignited by the building complex at the foot of the mountain and

The rolling smoke, his heart was bleeding, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.

The Japanese army finally occupied most of the Taohua Mountain. The officers were ecstatic and hurried to report their victory to their superiors.

When General Haneda heard that he had taken down Taohua Mountain, he hurriedly reported the good news to the North China Front Command.

Tu Feiyuan and Hongcun were very pleased to receive such good news and immediately ordered a drink to celebrate the victory.

Hamada Yoshihiro has been to Taohua Mountain and knew the terrain there. He thought that even if Taohua Mountain was lost, the main peak should not have been captured.

He said: "Minister and Commander, it is probably not the time to celebrate now. The main peak of Taohua Mountain is their last nest. We must build the main peak, otherwise, I think it will be a waste to take down Taohua Mountain."

The commander of the Komura village understood what Hamada Yoshihiro meant, so he issued a death order to the front-line troops, asking them to take down the main peak of Taohua Mountain, completely annihilate the guerrillas left in Taohua Mountain, and destroy their old nests in Shandong.

After the Japanese officers and soldiers occupied Taohua Mountain Village, they were indeed very excited. But soon after, they found that they were too happy.

The main peak of Taohua Mountain is the highest peak in Taohua Mountain area. The mountain is steep and it is very difficult to attack the mountain. A large number of fortifications have been built on the mountain, and a large number of artillery have been laid on the top of the mountain.

The artillery has a wide view and is high above the height. The Japanese army at the foot of the mountain are all in the sight of the defenders and have no place to hide. The Japanese army in Shandong have no air force and cannot carry out air bombing, so the defenders on the mountain have an absolute geographical advantage.

The Japanese army could not see the defenders on the top of the mountain, and were completely at the point of being passively beaten. The defenders kept firing artillery shells, causing a large number of casualties to the Japanese army.

Of course, the Japanese commanders were unwilling to be beaten passively. They all knew that only by completely taking down the main peak of Taohua Mountain could the situation of being beaten passively. So they organized troops and launched an attack on the mountain.

When breaking through the outer positions of Taohua Mountain, the Japanese army achieved success by relying on superior forces and the tactics of infantry and artillery coordination. They now also want to copy this tactic to the main peak of the attack, but found that it was not feasible at all.

The main peak of Taohua Mountain is too high. The Japanese artillery is in the valley outside or on the top of the mountain, and the range is not reaching the top of the main peak of Taohua Mountain.

If artillery is pushed onto several surrounding hills, the artillery of the defenders on the top of the mountain and even the anti-aircraft machine guns can be eliminated.

It can be said that the Japanese artillery could not play a role in such a bad terrain. They could only rely on the soldiers to risk their lives to attack the top of the mountain.

The terrain here is much more sinister than the terrain on the mountains just now. The road that can attack the mountains is very narrow. The defenders can block the attack road with just one or two machine guns. No matter how many Japanese troops are, they cannot be sent.

use.

After trying, the Japanese army lost hundreds of soldiers, and then they found that it was impossible to take down the main peak of Taohua Mountain.

The Japanese commander had no choice but to report the situation here to his superiors.

The news reached the North China Front Command, and Tu Feiyuan said: "The Taohua Mountain Village has been broken, and the remaining enemy troops have shrunk into caves on the mountain. According to the report, the remaining defenders and those logistics personnel are still quite large. They fled in

The cave cannot obtain foreign aid. As long as I trap them, they will starve to death. I want to see how long they can last?"
