Glorious Mission 1937

On the night of the 29th, the gunfire in Zhaojialiang Village in Xuanhua gradually weakened.Since the 3rd Special Mixed Brigade stopped retreating in the afternoon, two infantry regiments and an artillery regiment of the Japanese army chased after them. The two sides fought fiercely in Zhaojialiang Village, which lasted for three hours.Since the Special Mixed Brigade was on the defensive side, and the firepower was extremely fierce, the Japanese attacking troops suffered heavy losses. However, the Japanese army launched charges again and again without fear of life and death. In just a few hours, they just organized 7 group charges. The Three Brigades and One Regiment created tremendous pressure, forcing Liu Li to increase troops to Zhaojialiang Village.

However, the real danger came after nine o'clock in the evening. When the frontal attack of the Japanese army gradually weakened, the reconnaissance team found a large number of Japanese troops on the east and west sides of Zhaojialiang Village. Facing the danger of being encircled and wiped out by the Japanese army.

The brigade headquarters of the Third Special Mixed Brigade is located in Laohufen Village, which is less than ten miles away from Zhaojialiang Village. The staff officers of the Ministry did not have a unified opinion. Some staff officers believed that the Japanese army was powerful now, and this place was less than fifteen kilometers away from Xuanhua City, so it was the most correct choice to retreat.However, there are also some officers who believe that staying in Zhaojialiang Village is the most correct choice. This will not only carry out the orders of the group army headquarters, but also contain the Japanese army and create conditions for the follow-up troops.

"Traveler, make up your mind quickly whether to fight or withdraw, or it will be too late!" Chen Youliang said loudly.

"Old Chen, what do you think we should do now? Fight or retreat?" Liu Li asked in a deep voice. [

"Brigade seat. According to my idea, it is wiser to retreat. After all, our strength is still not strong enough to resist a reinforced division of the Japanese army. As you know from the front line, the Japanese army at the front line of Zhaojialiang Village has at least two infantry regiments and An artillery regiment, and at least one infantry regiment and a cavalry regiment of the Japanese army on the west side. Although the devils on the east side have fewer troops, they also have an infantry regiment. The Japanese army has more than 2 regiments, and the total strength is almost doubled to 6, no matter what the reason is. It is the right way to keep the number of the troops first." Chen Youliang said.

Liu Li thought for a while and said: "Old Chen, your thinking is very rational. But I can't listen to you now. The Japanese devils have already put the bayonet on the old lady's head. The price of retreating is too high. It's better to stay and fight with me." The devils fight hard. Even if they are dying. I can't let the little devil's son kill my brothers from behind. The hero who wants to die dies heroically!"

"But casualties..." Chen Youliang wanted to say something, but was stopped by Liu Li.

"There is nothing but, the crock can never break away from the mouth of the well. Generals will inevitably die before the battle. Since we have become soldiers and put on this uniform, we are China's national defense force. In this case, the only thing we can do is not retreat, but Straighten your chest and fight the Japanese devils to the end, your life will not stop, your battle will not stop, and the brave will win when you meet in a narrow road."

"Yes, there is no end to life, no end to battle! When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins." Chen Youliang said loudly.

Liu Li said loudly: "Pass my order, the brigade and the second regiment will immediately go south to reinforce Zhaojialiang Village, we will throw ourselves into a trap, isn't the little devil going to swallow us in one bite, my mother won't believe it, look at their copper The teeth are hard because our iron heads are strong. In addition, we sent electricity to Chizuru, told them that our army was besieged by more than six Japanese troops, and asked for an immediate increase in the number of troops.”

"Yes!"

After two years of fighting against Japan, Liu Li actually didn't think highly of the Japanese army in North China. She led a small number of small teams into Longtan and Tiger's Lair many times, and she also witnessed that the Fuping Independent Battalion survived in a short period of time. In one year, a small infantry battalion developed into a strengthened brigade with tens of thousands of personnel. Even the regular Japanese troops in Fuping County never dared to come out to make trouble for them. Therefore, in Liu Li's opinion, the Japanese army was actually not Not scary.

In addition, she has confidence in the main force of the Second Army. She is Li Haiping's fiancée, and Li Haiping was the first batch of officers to fight with Chen Feng, so Liu Li knows many things that others don't know. The group army will not just watch the [-]rd Special Mixed Brigade being wiped out by the Japanese army.Not only won't, but will use this opportunity to make a big fuss.

Sure enough, not long after the first report was sent out, the 52nd Army Command quickly responded, ordering the Special Mixed Third Brigade to hold back the Japanese 114th Division at all costs, and the main force could arrive within an hour at most.

"boom boom"

Looking at the mud blown up in the telescope and the broken arms and limbs mixed in the mud, Major General Akiyama was in a good mood. Although the casualties in this battle were indeed a bit heavy, the effort always paid off. Didn’t the Chinese people become his entanglement now? Is it the food in the village, just a Chinese infantry brigade, as long as it is in his pocket, it is so easy to fly out.

"Order: The Artillery Regiment suppresses artillery fire for 10 minutes, and the chariot troops charge forward. Be sure to wipe out the Chinese troops on the opposite side before the Chinese reinforcements arrive!" Major General Akiyama said loudly.

"Hay!"

In Zhaojialiang Village Command, the top executives of the Special Mixed Third Brigade watched the battle outside with livid faces. The news just came that Li Zhiqiang, the deputy head of the first regiment and the first battalion commander, was concentrated by the front of the Japanese artillery at the front and died on the spot. None of the corpses were left. The air-raid shelter where a platoon of the third battalion of the other regiment was located was blown up by Japanese artillery. The soldiers of one platoon were all buried in the hole, and they all suffocated to death when they were dug out. , In less than half an hour, the troops suffered more than 300 casualties, and this number is still rising in a straight line.

"Send a report to the Group Army Command and ask when the reinforcements will arrive?" Liu Li said loudly. "

Soon the radio operator came back with a message: "Brigade, call back from the General Headquarters. The Special Mixed 5th Division has already left Xuanhua, and it will arrive in four or ten minutes at most, but the General Manager hopes that our 10rd Brigade can make more Delay for a period of time to buy time for the 3th and 5th divisions to encircle the Japanese army in a roundabout way."

Liu Li and Chen Youliang looked at each other, and finally said: "Immediately call back Ji Zong and say that our 3rd brigade can still hold on, and we will complete the task to the death!"

"Boom boom boom!" Several shells exploded outside the brigade headquarters, blowing up the radio antenna of the headquarters. At the same time, it also shocked the brigade guard battalion. The artillery fired another 50 meters to the east, and the entire headquarters of the 3rd Special Mixed Brigade was taken away. [

"Report to the brigade, the position on the west side was torn open by the Japanese army, and the first battalion of the second regiment suffered heavy casualties!"

"Tell Shen Changxing that there is no room for loss in the western position, not to mention a battalion, even if his entire regiment is wiped out, I have to stand up to my mother."

"Yes"

"Report to the brigade, the artillery battalion position has just been bombarded by the Japanese Artillery Wing. 3 Seventy-Five Mountain Cannons and 2 Field Cannons were destroyed. The commander of the first company of the artillery battalion and the deputy commander of the second company died."

"Tell Hu Dalong that I will die on the battlefield for my mother, and let him not care about those broken copper and iron, just blow it up if it blows up, and my mother will get him an artillery regiment for him to play with!"

"Yes"

"Report to the brigade, the regiment headquarters of the Second Regiment was shelled by the Japanese army, Shen Changxing, the commander of the second regiment, was seriously injured, Yang Bing, the deputy commander, died, Li Guang, the chief of staff, and three other staff officers died in battle!"

It was another bad news, Liu Li calmed down the anger in her heart, and said to Chen Youliang: "Old Chen, the regiment headquarters of the second regiment was taken over by the devils, where there is a need for a capable and high-ranking person to sit in the town, you just take it with you." Let's go to the guard battalion one after another."

"Okay, you have to take care of yourself, I'm leaving!" After speaking, Chen Youliang hurriedly led the guard battalion to the regiment headquarters of the second regiment.

At the same time, at the frontline headquarters of the Japanese army, Major General Akiyama listened happily to the reports of the troops below. Those stupid Chinese people on the opposite side dared to stop and fight with the imperial Japanese army. Surrounded on three sides, it is almost impossible to escape.

"Yoxi, order all the troops on the front line to press up. We must make a quick decision and try to wipe out this Chinese infantry brigade within two hours!" Major General Qiushan said.

"Hay!"

"Reporting to your Excellency, the brigade commander, there is chaos in the western position of China. It is suspected that its command system has been devastated. Captain Yamada requested artillery support for the western position of China. They will respond there in 15 minutes. Launch a group charge at the brigade level?" The signal soldier came in and reported.

"Yoxi, Yamada is worthy of being the descendant of the most famous samurai family in the Japanese Empire. He is indeed bloody. He ordered the artillery wing to immediately bombard the positions on the west side of China, firing rapidly in 15 minutes!" Major General Akiyama said loudly.

"Hay!"

Zhaojialiang Village is currently surrounded by Japanese regiments. The 3rd Special Mixed Brigade has set up three lines of defense in the frontal position, each line has an infantry battalion, and two lines of defense have been set up in the east and west directions. In the infantry battalion, due to the cliffs to the north, no Japanese troops were found for the time being. The 3rd Special Mixed Brigade only placed an infantry platoon here to be in charge of security.

On the outskirts of Zhaojialiang Village, there was a full division of the Japanese army, and only one division headquarters was missing. The difference in strength between the two sides was huge. In addition, the third special mixed brigade went south just to reinforce the reconnaissance company that was besieged by the Japanese army. Therefore, the armored battalion and other troops did not carry them, and the artillerymen only brought 4 small mountain cannons and 4 field cannons. No wonder Major General Akiyama is so happy.

However, Major General Akiyama's good mood didn't last long, and he was frightened into a cold sweat by a telegram sent from the headquarters of the Xiahuayuan Division! (To be continued..)
