The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

From the very beginning, Wang Zhangtang knew that the role played by him and the entire tank regiment directly under him was to be bait.

Bait for Ri himself.

A tough character who easily killed half of the Japanese army's brigade by himself, was placed brightly next to Beiping, under the eyes of the Japanese himself, and for more than half a year, many situations inside and outside have been thoroughly understood , as soon as there is a chance, regardless of the purpose, Ri himself will destroy them as soon as possible.

For a nation that emphasizes "shame" and thinks that it has broken away from the so-called "backward civilization" and entered the world's mainstream civilization, such failure is equivalent to supreme humiliation. As the person involved, Masao Kawabe , it is absolutely impossible to treat it as if it never happened.

For Gu Hisao, who became the head of the division for the first time and led the 6th Division, which was almost revoked, to re-enter the country, the tank regiment directly under Wang Zhangtang is equivalent to what they used to prove their determination and strength. The best goal of the will, with a resolute attitude and a ruthless method, is to annihilate this powerful tank regiment that is the most important in North China in one fell swoop, and to achieve tough revenge and warning against Zhu Bin's forces.

Ever since, Wang Zhangtang's group fight has become a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh from the very beginning, a big fat sheep who wants to kill him quickly, and a deadly enemy who refuses to stop until he is killed.

Wang Zhangtang himself is very enlightened, and the entire regiment from top to bottom is very clear about his mission, but no one complains about it. Instead, he is complacent because he was able to face the challenge of Japan in the first place.Co-authoring and counting from all over the country, being able to confront tens of thousands of Japanese elite troops head-on with an established force, where can such an honor be exchanged?That is a good thing that is hard to buy!No matter how dangerous he is, this matter is so invigorating. In the future, bragging with grandchildren will always have material. I think back then...

Thousands of people were surrounded by tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers, and no one was so worried that they couldn't sleep. This kind of madness is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people!

On July 7, while the main force of the mixed brigade of the garrison army led by Hebian Zhengsan was besieging Wanping City.The two mixed brigades from Tianjin quickly outflanked them from the side. In the afternoon of the same day, they bypassed Daxing from the south of Nanyuan and attacked Liangxiang, which was hardly guarded by many people. The main force of the division is all blocked between Beiping City and Nanyuan, with nearly 17 troops and powerful equipment, it is tightly surrounded!

Immediately after the arrival of the 6th Ushidoman Brigade of the 36th Division Tani Hisao Department, after occupying Shunyi, they went straight to Tongzhou without any resistance, and then attacked Nankou and Juyongguan westward in the 10th Division.Prevent Liu Ruming's 143rd Division and the possibility of reinforcements from the ** Brigade, and ensure that his entire division can launch a crazy and comprehensive attack on Peiping without any worries!

The 39th Brigade of Ruan Xuanwu, which was guarding the northern suburbs, was outnumbered. After a little resistance, it quickly retreated to the defensive position near Beiping City. ** Together with the 9th Cavalry Brigade, they formed the heart of the Beiping defense line.Nearly half the strength of the entire 13th Army.A total of 29 people gathered in this heartland, fighting desperately with the powerful attack force of more than 5 Japanese troops!

On July 7th, the third day after the Japanese army launched an attack, Generalissimo Jiang sent a telegram to the whole country, demanding that all unite and fight the Japanese army to the end.However, in addition to ordering Wan Fulin's 19rd Army and Feng Zhanhai's 3st Division to mobilize support to the north, and also asking Yan Xishan to send troops from the Taihang Mountains to Hebei and Chahar for reinforcements, the main force of the central army first moved to the Songhu line. Huabei, you bear it first!

"If Butcher Zhang is dead, you won't be able to eat clean pork? Lao Jiang is thinking too cleverly of himself. He also thinks too simple of us!"

Song Zheyuan has long understood Lao Jiang's true thoughts. Last year, he was almost forced to compromise by the Japanese himself. One of the biggest reasons was that Lao Jiang refused to truly play the role of a leader in state affairs. I fought against Ri himself alone, fought, tossed, and finally collapsed after tossing.When it's over, Your Excellency the chairman can come to clean up the mess in a grandiose manner, and take Pingjin and Hebei without bloodshed.

But fortunately Zhu Bin intervened and dragged back his foot from the abyss. Now, even though he was surrounded by the Japanese army, Song Zheyuan cut off contact with Zhang Zizhong's 38th Division in Tianjin and Liu Ruming's troops in Chahar. There is no gesture of getting angry, and he squats in the underground headquarters as steadily as Mount Tai, smiling and watching the ups and downs.

Qin Dechun was not as calm as he was, and asked worriedly: "We tighten our defenses and try our best to keep the city safe, but what about Zhu Hanchen's tank regiment outside the city? Is it because they are eaten?"

What he was actually more worried about was that if that regiment was killed by the Japanese army, if Zhu Bin lost his temper, they would definitely be in trouble!

Song Zheyuan smiled calmly: "You think that kid is too simple! Since he dared to put a regiment there with great fanfare, he must have full confidence. We still watch, maybe it is an important weapon that can change the situation of the battle." Where are the chess pieces?"

Qin Dechun was skeptical, but he couldn't say anything more. The current battle situation was far beyond his control and understanding.

The shelling and bombing for two consecutive days made the area around Beiping City tens of miles into a miasma, and there was a scene of turmoil everywhere. Nearly [-] troops from both sides were in the middle of it, and almost every trail, every valley and ditch The river, and every town, has become a wrestling field where battles may break out at any time.

In order to completely wipe out the strength of Wang Zhangtang's regiment, the Japanese Army's three mixed brigades plus a division of the First Division with more than 2 people almost turned the Nanyuan, Daxing, Liangxiang, and Fangshan generations upside down. There was no blind spot, but Wang Zhangtang, who had made up his mind not to confront the Japanese army head-on, made several big circles in this area of ​​hundreds of square kilometers, and finally, was finally squeezed out of the last bit of maneuvering space, giving Blocked in the narrow area between Wanping and Mentougou.

"Catch those nasty rats!" Kawabe Masao jumped up on the spot excited by the good news, and hurriedly asked the new commander Kiyoshi Kazuki for instructions, "The goal of the combat phase has been achieved, please allow us to kill this China with all our strength." force!"

Xiangyue Qingji agreed without any consideration. Originally, this was their initial plan!Creating trouble, attacking Wanping City, and even besieging Beiping for two consecutive days of bombing, in the final analysis, is to draw out this hateful force inserted in their confidantes, find the best opportunity, and annihilate them in one fell swoop!

If Wang Zhangtang knew, he would be very surprised that the Japanese himself actually placed the importance of his regiment above the 29th Army!Putting the goal of destroying him in the first place, some of the battles of the garrison troops in the past two days were just a feint to achieve this ultimate goal!

The first mixed brigade of the garrison army, with a strong lineup of more than 1 people, blocked the southbound road between Fangshan and Liangxiang!This force is composed of 5000 infantry regiment, 1 tank brigade, 1 field heavy artillery brigade, and an engineering brigade. The artillery brigade was also brought up in advance, the entire number of heavy weapons, including 1 tanks, 2 61mm mountain guns and 24 75mm field cannons!

However, the mixed brigade by the riverside that was besieging Wanping originally transferred one of its own tank brigades, one field heavy artillery brigade, and two field artillery brigades to the front, thus forming a total of more than 1 vehicles. Tanks, more than 1 various cannons, and a main lineup of more than 2 people blocked a narrow area!

"Now, it's time for you to pay your blood debt! Damn Chinese people, die!"

He Bian Zhengsan gritted his teeth fiercely, and gave the combat order without hesitation.

In Wanping City, the head of the Jixing regiment was being bombarded by the Japanese army's endless bombing. After two days, the guards lost more than 400 people. Although the number of Japanese troops killed was definitely not less than this, after all they The support received is limited, and the feeling of being surrounded by people at the door of the house and beaten up is really uncomfortable. The morale has been severely hit, and it seems that I can't hold it anymore, and the heavy firepower of the peripheral attack is suddenly sparse. up!

"Not good! The little devil is going to play tricks!" He Jifeng's head was very bright, and he felt something was wrong almost as soon as he got the news, so he hurriedly informed Wang Zhangtang, "Be careful, you boy! The Japanese army is acting a little abnormal! "

Trapped in the ravine, Wang Zhangtang seemed to have no place to run, but he didn't feel anxious at all. He said with a relaxed smile, "Their 14th Division was almost wiped out by our main force. Long, they have to withdraw their numbers directly! After suffering such a big loss, it's no wonder they can return to normal!"

He Jifeng didn't know the news, so he was taken aback immediately, and wanted to ask for details carefully, but then realized that this was not a good time, and told him again: "It's not that simple! They don't seem to be withdrawing. In short, be careful!"

"Don't worry!" Wang Zhangtang hung up the radio, his lazy expression suddenly disappeared, and a cold breath appeared on his face, he said with a sneer, "If you don't even notice this, it's like I'm going to study abroad for nothing." So many years? Didn’t you just want to gather strength to kill our bait? Hehe, you have to be careful, the seemingly sweet bait is poisonous!”

On the evening of July 7th, just as the sky was getting dark, the two mixed brigades of the Japanese Army, which were deployed first, suddenly launched an overwhelming bombing in the direction of Mentougou from the east and south respectively!
