The third bloody war of resistance Chapter 10 Furious waves Section 2 The counterattack of the count
Dexian Lujia Villa, here is the heart and brain of the entire North China. The entire North China operates under the command of this brain as the heart beats. The headquarters is full of wartime tensions. The forest-like antennas transmit the situation of each front to the headquarters, to the combat room, and then pass the orders to various battlefields.
"...As of today, our army has fully broken through the city defense, but the Japanese army's resistance is still very tenacious. Sun Zhen reported that the troops suffered a lot of losses. The commander of the 729th Regiment of the 41st Army was killed, and the commander of the 364th Brigade Sun Anbang was seriously injured. He temporarily organized two commanders of the 19th Army. The defense line on the south bank of Yongding River, and Commander Chen of the 45th Army reported that today the 8th Division had twice attempted to cross the river. The Japanese army retreated back to the north bank of Yongding River; General Gan Lichu reported..."
Zhuang Jihua listened to He Wei's report silently. The battle situation was unprecedentedly fierce. The Japanese army resisted tenaciously and the attack was fierce and resolute. After rushing into Gu'an, he was once worried that the rapid elimination of Gu'an's defenders might cause Okamura to retreat. He also ordered Sun Zhen to defend Gu'an for three days without preparing for elimination.
In order to paralyze Okamura Yasuji, he dispatched the 45th Army from Gu'an to the south bank of Yongding River to block the attack. The Japanese army that counterattacked from Daxing divided the 8th Division to implement offensive defense on the south bank of Yongding River, and the 56th Division continued to attack Yu'an; the 19th Division, which counterattacked from the front, continued to attack on the front, and the main 10th Division and the 2nd Division of the chariot detoured from the right wing to the Huang'an Bridge between Panggezhuang and Yu'an and the Huang'an Bridge; the Fifth Division and the 3rd Fourth Division of the chariot detoured from the left wing, east of Panggezhuang toward Yu'an.
Fierce battles north of the Yongding River, and the Japanese army had a fierce offensive. After obtaining the approval of Zhuang Jihua, Fan Hanjie transferred 200 divisions to build, crossed the Yongding River, reinforced Yu'an, and the tank division stayed on the south bank of the Yongding River.
The two armies of the Fifth Army were scattered on the long front from Panggezhuang to the north bank of the Yongding River, enduring round after round of attacks by the Japanese army, and stubbornly attracting the Japanese army around them.
On the Douzhang front east of Gu'an, the Japanese army in Wuqing fought to the west. The Third Vehicle Brigade and the First Vehicle Brigade attacked the 72nd Army and the Third Army in turn. The 72nd Army and the Third Army did not retreat half a step back. Feng Shengfa and Tang Huaiyuan both personally went to the front line to supervise the battle. Pan Wenhua led the 47th Army to counterattack the Japanese army from the flanks. The Japanese army was forced to call out the 132nd Division to launch defense against the south. The 27th Division, 18th Division, and 114th Division continued to attack the 72nd Army and the Third Army positions, forcing the Chinese team to retreat continuously. Wuqing Japanese army advanced west. Zhengsan, a border of Langfang River, seized the opportunity to advance east and ordered the 64th Division and the 123rd Division to counterattack, trying to open up the connection with the Japanese army advancing west. The 71st Army blocked the two divisions.
Kawabian Masashi knew that now was their best opportunity. The Chinese team also had a huge reserve team. Once the Chinese general put the reserve team into battle, the light of this line was fleeting. He ignored the attacks of the 78th Army in front, but continued to mobilize troops to strengthen the counterattack.
Feng Shengfa commanded three armies to attack from left and right, blocking the Japanese attacks. Okamura Yasuji, Kawabian Masazo, Yokoyama Yudie urged him to open up the connection as soon as possible. The four Japanese divisions, regardless of casualties, attacked Feng Shengfa's defense line, forcing the Chinese team to retreat one after another, and the Japanese troops advancing east and west were only eight miles apart.
In a critical moment, Feng Shengfa ordered the 87th Division, which crossed the Jinlang Highway, to launch a counterattack from the north. Liu Anqi led his troops to detour north of the East Horse Circle, then turned south and rushed into the East Horse Circle. The 64th Division was caught off guard and was forced to retreat, which eased the entire battle situation.
In order to relieve Feng Shengfa's pressure, Song Xilian ordered the 78th Army to launch a strong attack on the front. Chi Fengcheng Governor led his troops to attack the city. Artillery fire flew across the city at Langfang. Takhaga II led the 3rd Division to fight the city at the city, and refused to fight the 78th Army at the city. Yu Chengwan led the 40th Army and the 32nd Division to attack each other west of Langfang, and both sides did not give in.
There was a stalemate at Langfang City, but Song Xilian still held the Second Army and the 112th Army of the New Eighth Army in his hand. The four elite troops did not enter the battle. Zhuang Jihua seemed happy to see this stalemate. But at Tianjin City, Du Yuming grabbed the main force of the Wuqing Japanese army and went out in full swing, and secretly ordered the commander of the Qing 3rd Army, Qin Yizhi, and the Sixth Tank Brigade to search for gaps and interspersed, inserted from the northwest of Duliu Town, and destroyed the two Japanese brigades, and captured Yang Fen in one fell swoop. The western area of Tianjin was suddenly in danger.
Faced with the crisis, Hengshan Yong did not take back the Wuqing reinforcements, but instead launched a counterattack with the Ninth Division in the city, and the two sides formed a tug-of-war on the Xiqing line. The relatively calm front was Zhuozhou. After the Fifth Army was transferred from the Zhuozhou front, Tang Enbo's offensive was affected, and Gu Shoufu also did not dare to go east with all his might. Yang Sen launched a strong attack on the western front. Gu Shoufu was worried that the Forty-Nine Army would detour through Baihua Mountain and suddenly appeared behind Zhuozhou. He repeatedly reminded Okamura to be vigilant of the Baihua Mountain area.
When He Wei introduced the battle situation, Bai Chongxi kept staring at the map. Zhuang Jihua transferred the 23rd Army and the Mechanized First Army to the south of the Yongding River, but never let them join the battle. The Japanese army was attracted by the Fifth Army to the front line of Yuwu in Panggezhuang. There was only one Eighth Division on the flank, which had only more than 10,000 people. It was insufficient, so he could only bluff. At this moment, as long as Qiu Qingquan's troops entered the battle, they could immediately defeat the Eighth Division and rushed to Panggezhuang in Yuwu. The entire battle situation was surging thousands of miles away, completely in their hands, but I don't know why he just didn't move.
"Cultural Revolution, did you let Qiu Qingquan cross the river?" Bai Chongxi finally couldn't help but speak. Since Songshan started attacking Yu'an yesterday, he had been waiting for Zhuang Jihua to give orders. Qiu Qingquan, who had always been dishonest, did not dare to say a word this time. Zhuang Jihua did not give orders, so he hid honestly on the south bank of Yongding River, not daring to cap it with half of his head.
Zhuang Jihua looked at the telegram in his hand intently, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth for a long time: "King Jian, look, Stalin is really smart and confused."
Bai Chongxi received the telegram for no reason. The telegram was sent directly to Zhuang Jihua just now. After reading it, Bai Chongxi couldn't help but suck. The scale of the rebellion in Xinjiang was so large, and the shadow of the Soviet Union behind it was so obvious.
The atmosphere in the combat room suddenly became angry. He Wei felt a little bitter and confused. Shangguan Jun opened his mouth unceremoniously and cursed: "The Soviet Union is a thief. The two major threats to our country are Japan and the other is Soviet Union. Commander, I think we have to be careful about **."
Zhuang Jihua immediately retorted: "Nonsense! The Eighth Route Army New Fourth Army is also a Chinese. I don't believe that they will do something to sell their country and nation. What's more, our top priority now is to drive the Japanese out. As for the Soviet Union, Stalin now has two major battlefields, Germany and Japan, and will not open up a third battlefield.
"Oh," Bai Chongxi made the same judgment, but now he couldn't believe it: "So what is the explanation?"
"Stalin wanted to take advantage," Zhuang Jihua smiled faintly: "He saw that our troops in Xinjiang are small and weak, so he wanted to create an opportunity to occupy the northern border first, and then force us to negotiate and resolve peacefully, and then bargain with us on the conditions of northern border, with the targets of Mongolia and Northeast. Humph, he made the wrong plan this time."
After saying that, he looked up at the staff inside: "The Chairman of the Xinjiang affairs has already taken action. Our task is to eliminate the Japanese army entrenched in peaceful areas. Don't be distracted. If we fight here, we will eliminate Okamura Yasuji. The Chairman will be more confident in dealing with the Xinjiang rebellion, and there will be more troops and materials to suppress the rebellion. From now on, the Xinjiang rebellion will no longer be discussed in the combat room! Have you heard it clearly?"
"Yes!" the staff in the combat room replied in unison. "Deputy Director He, this decision was conveyed to the troops, telling them that concentrating and fighting this battle was the greatest support for Xinjiang to suppress the rebellion. So focus on the moment and ignore anything else."
He Wei quickly agreed, Bai Chongxi nodded. Zhuang Jihua's decision was very correct and timely. Now the most important thing is to eliminate Japan. The war against the Cretaceous Japanese has taken ninety-nine steps. If you work harder, you will be able to win.
"Wait Qiu Qingquan, Fan Hanjie still has the strength to do, so don't worry for the time being." Zhuang Jihua said to Bai Chongxi.
Bai Chongxi sighed: "Okamura knows in his heart that we still have a large number of reserve teams. If we fight for a long time, we will not be able to join the reserve team. Wouldn't Okamura doubt it?"
Zhuang Jihua was silent. This was indeed a problem. He could imagine that Okamura was in the command center in Peiping, and he was nervously guessing that he would invest the reserve team in which direction, how large it was, and what method he would take.
"Commander, Ken Gong, I think you can wait a little longer," He Wei interrupted, "Wei Lihuang will be in place tomorrow, and it will take two or three days for the troops to be renovated. We will launch an attack tomorrow to attract Okamura Yanji's attention so that Wei Lihuang can act."
Bai Chongxi has considered this issue. He speculated that the reason why Zhuang Jihua has not allowed Qiu Qingquan to cross the river was because he was waiting for Wei Lihuang. If both sides could start at the same time, Okamura would be at a loss and unable to take care of both. However, Bai Chongxi could not keep it completely confidential."
Zhuang Jihua had a expressionless face. It was not that he had calculated this point, so in the plan, the first wave of the Eighth Route Army was launched. This area was originally an guerrilla force of the Eighth Route Army. He hoped to influence Okamura's judgment and could only affect one or two days.
"The guerrillas have no power to challenge the Japanese strongholds, and the local defenders must have felt that the equipment of this guerrilla team is different from the past. Okamura must be guessing where the New Fourth Army in Central Hebei and the Eighth Route Army in Southern Hebei went?" Bai Chongxi continued to explain.
Zhuang Jihua understood Chongxi's concerns. According to Rigao Nosuke's previous information, Okamura had at least one division in the Huairou area, and there might be a tank division. If Okamura transferred this unit to Xinjianguan or Xuanhua, the counterattack troops of Panggezhuang and Yu'an would be quickly recovered, and Qiu Qingquan's heavy punch would be lost.
After thinking it through, Zhuang Jihua immediately ordered: "Mr. Jian is right. It is difficult to completely hide the actions of hundreds of thousands of troops from the enemy. He ordered Qiu Qingquan to cross the river tomorrow at dawn, and first eliminate the 8th and 56th Divisions, and telegraph Fan Hanjie that tomorrow will turn defense into offense and hold back the Japanese army, and don't let the third emperor run away!"!~!
