782 Xue Yue Attacks
At ten o'clock in the morning on June 22, in the headquarters of the nd Mixed Brigade of the Japanese, the Japanese brigade commander Mishan Milu was kneeling.
There were two samurai swords in front of him, one long and one short. He picked up the short sword and wiped it slowly.
There were no other Japanese officers to be seen in the entire brigade headquarters.
It was only because all the Japanese officers were driven out by Mishan Milu and rushed to the front line to command the Japanese in battle.
As time went by, the sound of gunfire outside was getting closer and closer to the headquarters.
After a day and two nights of fierce attack, several positions defended by the Japanese 22nd Mixed Brigade were all lost.
Starting early this morning, the troops led by Wang Dachuan and Long Wendong began to storm the last main position defended by the main force of the Japanese 22nd Mixed Brigade.
The remaining Japanese soldiers of the 22nd Mixed Brigade were less than two thousand.
Many of them are wounded soldiers, and even the old Japanese Mishan and Milu don’t know how long they can hold out.
But for him, it doesn’t matter whether he persists an hour more or an hour less.
Their fate is already determined.
The old devil Mishan Milu still had some courage in him and actually planned to commit suicide.
However, the short samurai sword in his hand had been wiped by him several times.
The old devil still couldn't make up his mind and stabbed himself.
As the sounds of gunfire and explosions got closer, the old Japanese named Mishan Milu finally made up his mind.
"Long live the Empire, long live His Majesty!"
puff!
The old devil stabbed the short-handled samurai sword into his abdomen, and then pulled it hard.
The guy slowly fell down.
After a while, as the dense sound of submachine gun fire rang out outside the command center, a team of Kuomintang commandos rushed in.
"Platoon commander, look!"
The Kuomintang commandos who rushed in looked at the Japanese brigade commander lying in a pool of blood.
The National Army platoon leader also laughed: "This should be the headquarters of the 22nd Mixed Brigade of the Japanese.
Unfortunately, we were a step late.
This old devil actually committed suicide.
I thought that these old devils were all cowards and would not really commit suicide.
This guy might have been fooled by other Japanese generals.
Others didn't commit suicide, but he did it by cutting open his abdomen. What a fool. "
No wonder this National Army platoon leader would have such an opinion.
The truth was, they had followed Ye Qingshan and annihilated the Japanese 11th Army in Burma.
A lot of Japanese generals were captured.
Basically, I didn't see many Japanese generals actually committing suicide.
This group of old Japanese devils were all shouting slogans to deceive the Japanese soldiers and officers below.
When it is their turn to be captured, they basically will not commit suicide, but choose to surrender and be captured.
This National Army platoon leader never expected that today he would actually encounter a Japanese general who committed suicide.
"Forget it, if I die, I die.
Even if he dies, it is our credit.”
After eleven o'clock, the last main position of the Japanese 22nd Brigade was completely captured by the 601th Division and the st Brigade.
Only sporadic gunshots continued to ring out on the battlefield.
Those were other National Army soldiers who were looking for living Japanese soldiers to shoot them again.
"Haha, the 22nd Mixed Brigade of the Japanese was wiped out by us.
Quick, tell the commander the good news."
At this moment, Wang Dachuan was staying at the foot of the mountain. He watched the Japanese plaster flag on the top of the mountain being pulled down, and he understood that the battle was over.
Shouted excitedly.
Soon, Ye Qingshan received an urgent telegram from Wang Dachuan.
Ye Qingshan glanced at his watch and said, "Wang Dachuan ended the battle an hour earlier than I had planned.
OK, they did a great job this time.
Send a message to Wang Dachuan and Long Wendong, asking them to rest separately.
Head north immediately and join the 1st and 2nd Divisions.
We must wipe out the Japanese 40th Division as soon as possible. There is no time to lose.
Otherwise, let alone whether the Third Division could continue to hold off the crazy attack of the Japanese Sixth Division.
The armored battalion and paratrooper battalion defending Nanxiong alone are about to collapse. "
"Commander, Captain Lu sent another telegram two hours ago.
They said that they were once again subjected to large-scale bombing by the Japanese in Nanxiong.
They lost a lot of tanks.
Captain Lu wants to ask if the headquarters can dispatch the air force to intercept the Japanese bombers. "
The young martial artist next to him said to Ye Qingshan.
"Hey!"
Ye Qingshan sighed: “If Meng Jifei’s aviation team can still fly over to support them.
I sent the air force over there a long time ago.
Since yesterday morning, the number of Japanese fighter planes appearing in the sky has more than doubled than before.
It was obvious that the Japanese had transferred a new flying regiment from the north.
The Japanese Zero fighter fleet is now enough to stop Meng Jifei and his men from flying over Nanxiong.
They want the support of our air force to stop the bombing by the Japanese bombers.
It’s no longer possible.”
Ye Qingshan shook his head. He couldn't get more fighter planes in a short time.
At present, Meng Jifei and his air force and the Japanese Zero fighter group are fighting fiercely in the sky over northern Guangdong every day.
Nanxiong is located too far to the north.
The Japanese air force fighters were already there, and they had control of the air.
"Tell Lu Changtian and the others that they can only rely on themselves from now on."
"Yes!"
"By the way, is there any unusual movement from the Japanese Third Division?"
Ye Qingshan's gaze turned back to southern Jiangxi, the Japanese Third Division.
This elite Japanese division is like a sharp sword hanging over Ye Qingshan's head.
Ye Qingshan must always be vigilant about when this sharp blade might fall.
Once the Japanese Third Division, in order to prevent Ye Qingshan from being defeated, completely wiped out the 40th Division under his command and went south to rescue.
At that time, Ye Qingshan will be under great pressure.
"Commander, the Japanese Third Division has sent three regiments to the border area between southern Hunan and southern Jiangxi.
A confrontation has already begun with an army group sent by General Xue.
In the past few days, small battles broke out between the two sides from time to time.
But neither side seems to want to fight, so the battle will be over soon.
At present, there are no signs of any troops from the Japanese Third Division heading south."
Xiao Wusheng reported.
"Um,"
Ye Qingshan nodded and said, "Xue Yue is quite considerate. He puts pressure on that old devil Anan Weiji.
This will be more beneficial to us.
However, as we annihilated the Japanese 22nd Mixed Brigade.
That old devil Anami Korechika will surely guess that we are going to target his 40th Division next.
Just because this old devil would take a risk and send troops south regardless of the consequences,
It's time to send another telegram to Xue Yue.
Tell him that this level of pressure is no longer enough.
Let him mobilize the troops to attack the Japanese Third Division with all their strength and make sure that the Japanese Third Division will be unable to take care of itself.
Wait until we get rid of the Japanese 40th Division.
At that time, if the old Japanese devil Anami Korechika had not escaped with his Third Division.
By then, maybe I can join forces with Xue Yue to defeat Anami Korechika's 11th Army."
After Ye Qingshan finished speaking, Xiao Wusheng said with some concern: “Commander.
What if Xue Yue doesn't accept our suggestion? "
Ye Qingshan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xue Yue is not a short-sighted person.
I believe he will not miss such a good opportunity.
Xue Yue had suffered a lot at the hands of this old devil in the two previous battles with Anami Weiji in western Hunan.
Now, Xue Yue finally has a chance to take revenge.
I don’t believe he can bear it.”
"That's right."
Half an hour later, Xue Yue received Ye Qingshan's telegram in Xiangxi.
"The 22nd Mixed Brigade of the Japanese was eaten by Ye Qingshan?"
When Xue Yue saw the contents of the telegram, he was also surprised.
"real or fake?
Didn’t they just surround the Japanese 22nd Mixed Brigade a few days ago?
Is this a complete annihilation?
This is too fast. "
The Chief of Staff Li Zilii next to him was also surprised.
Xue Yue smiled bitterly: "Since it was Ye Qingshan who sent the telegram personally, it must be correct.
It seems that we still underestimated Ye Qingshan.
The combat effectiveness of his 86th Army is also stronger than we expected."
After reading the telegram, the Chief of Staff Li Zili said to Xue Yue: "Commander, Ye Qingshan is in the telegram.
Let us launch a full-scale attack on the Japanese Third Division.
How do we respond?
"Ye Qingshan eliminated the Japanese 22nd Mixed Brigade, but this was obviously not his main goal in this battle.
The Japanese 40th Division is the one he wants to take down.
Then next, Ye Qingshan will take action against the Japanese 40th Division.
If Ye Qingshan really has the potential, he can destroy the Japanese 40th Division.
It is not ruled out that by then, Anan Weiji and the other Japanese will be desperate and rush south to rescue at all costs.
The old devil couldn't bear it either, and an entire main division was wiped out under his command.
Next, Ye Qingshan was under a lot of pressure.
They sent two elite troops to Nanxiong to block the breakout troops of the Japanese 40th Division.
No problem.
But if we have to deal with the troops of the Third Division coming south from southern Jiangxi, it would be basically impossible.
In fact, even if Ye Qingshan didn’t send me a telegram.
By the time I found out, he had really wiped out the Japanese 22nd Mixed Brigade.
And if there is a chance that he can take down the 40th Division of the Japanese, I will definitely help him deal with the rd Division of the Japanese."
As Xue Yue spoke, he felt infinite emotion in his heart.
At the beginning, when Ye Qingshan launched a counterattack, he felt that Ye Qingshan was a little too arrogant.
But now, Xue Yue had to admit that Ye Qingshan was really bold and daring.
This also stimulated him.
Xue Yue strode towards the map.
He continued: “Ye Qingshan also proposed a bold plan in the telegram.
At this moment, he not only wanted to devour the 40th Division of the Japanese, he even dared to devour the entire th Army of the Japanese. "
"This guy is a real lunatic."
Chief of Staff Li Zilii next to him also expressed his emotion.
“Yeah, he’s a lunatic.
But I like this kind of madness.
If there is a chance this time to annihilate the Japanese 11th Army, I will help him even if it costs my life.
Otherwise, it would be an apology to the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in Xiangxi before. "
The chief of staff Li Zilii next to him looked at Xue Yue's determined eyes.
You know the other party has made up his mind.
"Send an order, have the 15th Army immediately launch an attack on the Japanese 3rd Division.
This time, the attack will be fierce.
This is our revenge battle.
In addition, the order was sent to Li Yutang's 58th Army and Sun Du's th Army to also march south to join the battle."
This time, Xue Yue sent out his two most elite armies.
This really requires an all-out effort.
"What about northern Jiangxi?
I just received news yesterday that the Japanese 102nd Division in northern Jiangxi showed signs of moving westward?
Most likely, the Japanese used the tactic of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" in order to contain us and deal with Anami Korechika's 3rd Division.
But we can’t just ignore it.”
Li Zili said.
“Well, let the 19th Army go.
The defense line built by an army group is enough to ensure that there will be no problems in Xiangxi.
If the Japanese 102nd Division arrives, tell the th Army.
Just leave the devils behind."
Soon, Ye Qingshan received a reply from Xue Yue.
Just as Ye Qingshan guessed, Xue Yue was moved by his proposal.
Since Xue Yue had given his all, Ye Qingshan was completely relieved.
…………
Just when Ye Qingshan was worried about the situation in Nanxiong.
At this moment in Nanxiong, the soldiers of the armored battalion and the parachute battalion are experiencing an extremely difficult battle.
Boom boom boom!
Outside the city of Nanxiong, at the position of the paratrooper battalion, the paratrooper battalion and the armored battalion are now defending here.
More than half of them have been killed or wounded.
The tanks of the armored battalion, except for the first company that had been hidden by Lu Changtian.
The other two companies participating in the battle had two-thirds of their tanks and armored vehicles destroyed by the Japanese.
There was no way, because the troops attacking them this time were from the Cavalry Regiment of the Japanese Sixth Division.
They are also a mechanized force, but the tanks they have may not be as many as those of the armored battalion in terms of performance and quantity.
But they still have a lot of artillery larger than 75 mm, as well as more than a dozen anti-tank guns.
These can all cause damage to the tanks and armored vehicles of the armored battalion.
In addition, since early yesterday morning, the Japanese have been continuously bombing them from the air.
One can imagine the tremendous defensive pressure on the two battalions.
Boom boom boom!
When the rumbling noise stopped, Shanying, the commander of the paratrooper battalion hiding in the tunnel, could not help but curse:
"These damned Japs organized three aerial bombing raids on us a day.
It’s fucking crazy.”
Shanying reached out to wipe the dust off his hair and said with some concern: "I don't know what the situation is like for the brothers in the armored battalion.
The Japanese bombing was mainly aimed at them.
Our defensive position was only affected.
Hopefully they’re all right.”
According to the defensive tactics formulated by Lu Changtian and Shanying before the battle.
The paratrooper battalion must focus on defending positions, but the armored battalion’s mission is not like that of the paratrooper battalion, which is mainly focused on defending positions.
Their mission is to give full play to the mobility and flexibility of the armored battalion.
Just like when they defeated the Japanese 236th Regiment before, when necessary, the armored battalion launched a surprise attack on the Japanese from the flank.
Use offense instead of defense.
Therefore, the positions of the two parties are not together.
The Japanese commander obviously realized this as well.
The Japanese commander also learned a lesson from the same loss.
Therefore, after the attack began, the Japanese cavalry regiment not only organized offensive forces to attack the positions defended by the parachute battalion.
He also concentrated his heavy firepower to annihilate Lu Changtian's armored battalion.
