Chapter 667 Goal - Tai'an, Shandong
April 29, 1939, at 2 a.m.
Since the Longtou Guerrillas attacked the 1st Division of the Japanese Army, they fought fiercely for more than three hours and finally completely defeated the Japanese army. If it weren't for the sharp breakthrough of the Japanese army, our army's results would have been greater.
But even so, in this raid battle, our army killed more than 2 Japanese troops and injured countless Japanese troops.
Moreover, the capture of this battle was even more surprising.
"Commander, the Japanese 1st Division, is indeed a dignified permanent division. Just the weapons and ammunition that are stranded and discarded, is more fucking than the division of our ** team!"
Xiaozhuang ran over and said to Ouyang Yan.
Gan Zifeng, the instructor of the Third Battalion, said in surprise: "Not only that, we also seized three tanks in this battle, but it's a pity that no one can start it."
"Hahaha!"
At that moment, Ouyang laughed and pointed at Xiaozhuang and said, "Gan Zifeng, Xiaozhuang is a person from the 512th Brigade Wolf Teeth and Lone Wolf. Not to mention the Japanese tank, he can play even with the plane!"
"Really?"
Gan Zifeng looked surprised.
"hehe!"
Xiaozhuang smiled and said, "Zifeng, don't underestimate others. I remember that when the commander and I went to the Guangzhou defense battle, our Langya and Lone Wolf launched a joint operation and drove away 28 fighter planes from the Japanese Jimei Airport!"
Ouyang was also full of joy in the harvest this time.
But now is not a happy moment. The Japanese 1st Division was just defeated, and its main force was not severely damaged. After it rested, it would inevitably launch a counterattack!
At that time, the Dragon Head Guerrillas and Chu Yunfei's remnants will definitely not be able to withstand their troops!
"Commander~~~!"
At this moment, Chief of Staff Jiang Dengxuan ran over quickly, his face full of anxiety.
Jiang Dengxuan panted and said, "Commander, it is urgent that we should immediately start the second step of the plan and capture Tai'an, Shandong!"
"I'm not waiting!"
"The entire central Shandong area is now in full swing.
**Shen Ke's troops of the 106th Division, the Chu Yunfei troops of the Independent Brigade, and the Third Line of the Eighth Route Army, the Third Line of the First Column of our Eighth Route Army attacked with more than 30,000 people.
However, the Japanese army has more troops.
The 1st Division of the Japanese Army, the 35th Division of the Japanese Army, the 36th Division of the Japanese Army, and the 37th Division of the Japanese Army, a total of four major divisions participated in the battle.
Although none of the Japanese divisions participated in the war, only some of the troops participated in the war.
However, with the local garrison forces of the Japanese and puppet troops, the total strength is more than 50,000.
Compared with the 30,000 people we estimated before, there are still 20,000 more people!
The 20,000 additional people are the most deadly!
The gap in troops has led to the difficulty of our army's battle situation."
Chief of Staff Jiang Dengxuan said with a serious expression: "At present, only by capturing Tai'an can we focus the eyes of the four major Japanese divisions and even the entire Japanese army in Shandong on us. Only by this major raid by the Japanese army in Shandong can we completely declare bankruptcy!"
"Um!"
Upon hearing this, Ouyang nodded heavily.
Xiaozhuang and others around him also nodded in agreement.
Capture Tai'an!
What a seductive word!
The Longtou Guerrillas once won the battles in the ten eastern counties of Handan a month ago, which greatly shook the rule of the Japanese army in North China and shocked the entire North China.
However, the victory of the battles in the ten eastern counties of Handan is simply a slight witch compared to the victory of capturing Tai'an.
A world of difference!
Where is Tai'an?
It is not a small county town!
It is an important town in Shandong and the prefecture-level city!
As long as Tai'an City is captured, the impact it has on the Japanese army will inevitably fall!
"Okay~~~~!"
At that moment, Ouyang waved his hand and shouted: "Tell me the order, order the Third Battalion to quickly clean the battlefield, collect the bodies of soldiers and wounded, and the weapons, ammunition and supplies seized on the battlefield, and those who cannot take them away or those who delay the marching will be blown up for me.
At the same time, he ordered the rest of the troops to immediately advance to Tai'an City, vowing to take down Tai'an City before the Japanese army reacted!"
"It should be like this!"
Jiang Dengxuan showed joy on his face and praised Ouyang for his decisiveness.
Suddenly, Xiaozhuang said anxiously: "Commander, then we don't want all of them for so many weapons, ammunition and materials to be seized?"
It’s almost the same division’s weapons and equipment!
What a huge temptation that was!
If Xiaozhuang gave up, it would be heartbreaking.
"That's right!"
Ouyang said in a deep voice: "Compared with taking over Tai'an City, it's a big deal!"
Hearing this, except for Xiaozhuang's instructor Gan Zifeng, who was in charge of the third battalion, was also extremely anxious.
"Commander, do you really want to blow it up? The 92 infantry cannons we seized this time are as many as 10, and there are several large-caliber heavy artillery of the Japanese army. If they are all blown up, when will we have it?"
No wonder Xiaozhuang and Gan Zifeng were anxious.
Both of them are smart people, but in the face of such a large number of seizures, they are really reluctant to blow it up!
The equipment of a teacher!
~~~~~~~
at the same time.
**The 2nd Army Independent Brigade also suffered from the same situation.
When the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade received the order to blow up weapons, ammunition and supplies issued by Chu Yunfei, they were all heartbroken.
"You must not be traveling!"
"We have never seen so many weapons and ammunition in eight lives!"
"Yes, with these weapons and ammunition, our independent brigade's strength will be increased several times immediately!"
Faced with everyone's advice, Chu Yunfei only replied coldly.
"Execute the command!"
Capture Tai'an is the only goal now!
I vow to capture Tai'an before the Japanese army reacted and completely reverse the battle situation in Shandong!
Not long afterwards, Ouyang's leading guerrillas, Chu Yunfei's independent brigade, and the main force of the two armies immediately advanced towards the Japanese army's empty Tai'an City!
~~~~~~~
At the same time, news of the Japanese 1st Division's defeat spread throughout Shandong as soon as possible.
The Japanese officers and soldiers who heard this news were all uproared and their hearts were shocked!
"So bad, so bad!"
"Our army is secret and secret, and a hundred secret!"
"Yes, no one expected that at the critical moment of the Tai'an battle, the dragon-head guerrillas that had been hiding in the Taishan Mountains suddenly appeared in the most critical place!"
"The 1st Division of our Great Japanese Imperial Army was defeated, which is simply a huge bad news."
"Hateful, really hateful!"
"In this way, the situation in Tai'an was completely reversed by the Chinese team!"
"This is not the worst situation yet!"
"That's true. Once the Chinese team takes advantage of the situation to take over the empty defense Tai'an City, the situation in Shandong will also change completely!"
"Tai'an City, you must not let the Chinese team win!"
For a moment, all the Japanese troops in Shandong were panicked!
~~~~~~~~
Japanese 1st Division.
Although the division commander Yoshio Shinozuka was defeated, he was still in shock at this moment, but he still issued a decisive order: "The 8th Brigade of our division, which was ordered to go to Puyang to fight, immediately give up the attack on the 106th Division of the ** and return to Tai'an!"
"The rest of our army should be reorganized quickly and advance to Tai'an City immediately. Be sure to intercept the Central Team before the Central ** team occupied Tai'an City!"
"Yes, the division commander!" The Japanese army shouted loudly.
Chapter completed!
