Takadao knew that he could not delay for a moment. He led the remaining cavalry, turned around, and rushed towards Sun Desheng and the others again. He believed that the enemy's firepower and troops on this side were relatively weak. If they fight to the death, they might be able to Fight your way out.
Sun Desheng saw the Japs' cavalry rushing back toward him. It seemed that the Japs were treating him as a weakling.
He was so angry that he personally held a light machine gun and fired fiercely at the Japanese troops.
As the supreme commander of the battlefield, Xu Dalong always controlled the reserves of two cavalry squadrons. Seeing that the direction of the Japanese attack was Sun Desheng's side, he ordered the two cavalry squadrons to rush for reinforcements.
The Japanese cavalry knew that the situation was urgent. They made a desperate move and rushed forward regardless of life or death. Although some people were constantly being shot and fell off their horses, the surviving cavalry still rushed forward.
Seeing that they were about to break through the encirclement, the two cavalry squadrons in reserve arrived in time. They set up machine guns and rifles and opened fire fiercely, knocking off the horses of the enemy cavalry who were rushing over.
At this time, the encirclement was gradually shrinking, and the artillery and machine guns on the tanks and armored vehicles were spitting out tongues of fire, constantly devouring the lives of the Japanese cavalry.
Captain Takashima looked at the cavalry following him. In such a short period of time, less than one-third of the original number was left. He knew that he was finished and was ready to lead the troops to launch a final charge. The entire cavalry regiment came to pledge their loyalty to Tian Huangbi.
He raised his saber high and was about to issue the order to attack when the enemy's artillery fire suddenly stopped, and then a tank slowly drove towards them.
The tank stopped more than a hundred meters away from the Japanese cavalry. The turret cover on it was opened. Someone held a loudspeaker and shouted from it: "Listen to the Japanese cavalry on the opposite side. The Mawushan guerrillas are surrounding you. On the orders of the captain, I urge you to surrender. If you are willing to lay down your arms, we will ensure the safety of your lives and property and let you live.
You don't have to worry about our sincerity. More than once, well-organized troops in your Japanese army have surrendered to our Mawushan guerrillas. We have given them humanitarian treatment, bandaged their wounds, and sent them away safely.
Japanese officers and soldiers, you are still young, and your parents, wives and children in your hometown are looking forward to your return. I hope you will not make unnecessary resistance and sacrifice your lives in vain. Surrender! "
The 81st Regiment of the Japanese 32nd Division surrendered to the Mawushan guerrillas, and more than 400 officers and soldiers of the Japanese 110th Division surrendered and were released. Although this information was tightly sealed among the Japanese army, there was no airtight wall. Even the officers and soldiers of the Chahar Expeditionary Force had heard of it.
The Japanese officers and soldiers were now surrounded, and they all knew that there was no way out today. After hearing the shouts of the Mawushan guerrillas, many soldiers had the idea of surrender.
Captain Takashima is an extremely proud man and a fanatical communist, so the word surrender does not exist in his dictionary.
He looked around and saw many Japanese soldiers listening attentively to the enemy's shouts. He was worried that some of them would be swayed if this continued.
For the sake of his stupid beliefs and his ridiculous honor, Takashima no longer hesitated and gave the order to charge. He took the lead and charged towards the enemy tanks while brandishing his saber.
Most of the Japanese soldiers were desperadoes who were not afraid of death. They also followed Takashima and launched a meaningless charge. Those Japanese officers and soldiers who originally wanted to surrender could only be coerced and faced death with their own flesh and blood.
There was no suspense in the battle. Under the fierce machine gun and artillery fire, none of the Japanese cavalry could rush in front of the tank troops. The Japanese officers and soldiers rushed forward and fell down row by row. Until there was no more standing war horse or Japanese soldier on the battlefield.
The gunfire stopped, and the corpses of Japanese soldiers and horses were everywhere. It was almost dusk, and the setting sun was like snow, creating a desolate scene.
Xu Dalong found some documents from a captured Japanese army document package and figured out the identity of this Japanese cavalry.
Xu Dalong asked Lin Xueying to send a clear telegram.
Taiyuan City.
The commander of the Japanese First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka, said to the pale chief of staff in front of him: "What did Xu Dalong say in the telegram?"
The chief of staff swallowed hard and read in frustration: "Japanese officers and soldiers, listen, Chahar dispatched 1,921 troops from the Takashima Cavalry Regiment to invade our Mawushan base area, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil, causing the tragedy of Liujiazhuang." Eucalyptus, resulting in the death and injury of more than 80 innocent villagers, arousing great public outrage.
Our Mawushan guerrillas completely annihilated this inhuman beast force and avenged the people who died in Liujiazhuang.
Here, the Mawushan guerrillas warned all Japanese invaders that if they dared to massacre innocent people again, the Takashima United Army would be their fate.
In order to reflect the humanitarian spirit of our anti-Japanese military and civilians, the Japanese army was specifically allowed to go to the Liujiazhuang area to collect the corpses. Our army promised not to launch an attack on the Japanese troops who collected the corpses.
Mawushan Guerrilla Brigade Captain Xu Dalong and Zheng Committee Zhao Gang.
Today. "
Yoshio Shinozuka shook his head in pain and said: "Takashima is a brave warrior, but it is a pity that he is too arrogant and does not listen to my arrangements, which leads to such a tragic defeat."
The chief of staff wanted to say that the Mawushan guerrillas were too difficult to deal with. As the words came to his lips, he felt that it was inappropriate to say such depressing words at this moment, so he remained silent.
The atmosphere in the office was very dull.
Yoshio Shinozuka was silent for a while and said, "Let's arrange for someone to go to Liujiazhuang to collect the corpses of the Yellow Army warriors."
The chief of staff nodded silently and walked out.
Ping'an County, Lijiazhuang.
Li Yunlong received the telegram from Zhang Dabiao and said excitedly: "Well done, these damn little devils dared to sneak attack on Lao Zi's new brigade. This is their fate."
Li Yunlong spoke so excitedly that he couldn't help but wave his arm, which touched the injury on his body. He immediately felt a pain in his ribs. He couldn't help but hum, and a large amount of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
These days, Li Xiuqin has been taking care of him.
Seeing Li Yunlong's painful look, she hurriedly picked up a towel, carefully wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and asked with concern: "Brigadier Li, are you okay? Do you want me to call a doctor?"
Li Yunlong shook his head, showed a smile and said: "Miss Xiuqin, it's okay. This injury is nothing to us, Lao Li. You have been taking care of me, it's too hard, go back and rest quickly."
Li Xiuqin said: "It's okay, Brigadier Li. I'm not tired."
Li Yunlong had a good impression of Li Xiuqin and said: "Don't call me old brigade commander or brigade commander, just call me Lao Li."
Li Xiuqin is also a cheerful girl. She said: "Then I'll call you Lao Li." Then she called you Lao Li.
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "That's right, I call you Lao Li, which sounds friendly."
Baotou, Inner Mongolia, Chahar Expedition Army Headquarters.
The commander saw Xu Dalong's clear telegram. He was furious. He pulled out the command knife hanging on the wall and slashed a corner of the desk with the knife.
He shouted: "Ba Yalu, the little Mawu Mountain guerrilla Xu Dalong, how dare you humiliate our Chahar dispatched army, I must give blood for blood, tooth for tooth, eliminate you Tubal Road, and relieve the pain in my heart hatred."
He sent a telegram to Shinozuka Yoshio, saying that he would send a cavalry brigade into Shanxi to cooperate with the First Army to eliminate the Mawushan guerrillas, so as to wash away the shame of the Takashima Regiment being annihilated.
Yoshio Shinozuka got what he wanted and immediately expressed his welcome.
The World War II District Chief's Office, Zhongtiao Mountain Headquarters, and Taiyue Military Region Headquarters all sent congratulatory messages to the Mawushan guerrillas to celebrate their annihilation of the Japanese Takashima Cavalry Regiment.
The King of Shanxi was originally a little worried about Chu Yunfei's 358th Brigade staying in the Mawushan area, but he was relieved after seeing the results achieved by the Mawushan guerrillas. He said with emotion: "This young man Xu Dalong is really a talent."
The Japanese Takashima Cavalry Regiment was annihilated. Due to the stubborn resistance of the Japanese army, most of the horses were killed.
Fortunately, there are still some war horses left in Liujiazhuang's village, with a total of more than 200 horses. Although not many war horses were captured, basically the entire cavalry regiment's equipment was seized.
Zhang Dabiao had long been envious of the cavalry unit of the Mawushan guerrillas. Now that the new first brigade only had one cavalry company, he took the idea of these horses and cavalry equipment and planned to expand it to a cavalry battalion.
He said to Xu Dalong: "Brother Xu, the regiment leader has long said that he wants to build a cavalry battalion, but unfortunately it has never happened. I hope you can help me."
Xu Dalong knew what he was planning and said with a smile: "This is not a problem. You can choose whatever you want from the horses and equipment of the Japanese Cavalry Regiment captured this time."
Although Zhang Dabiao had long known that Xu Dalong was a cheerful person, he was still overjoyed when he saw him agreeing to him so happily.
He said happily: "Brother Dalong, you are still a friend enough. Then I will thank you on behalf of our group leader."
Zhao Gang is now the chief steward of the Mawushan base area, and all seizures captured by the troops when they go out to fight must be handed over to him. When he learned that the horses and part of the cavalry equipment captured in this battle were given to Zhang Dabiao, he had no objection.
After all, he came from the independent regiment, and he would always think of the old army when he had any good things. He was also very enthusiastic about the establishment of a cavalry battalion in the new brigade. He specially asked Sun Desheng to select a group of guerrilla cavalry backbones to help the new brigade. A brigade trains cavalry.
Wang Xiaohu's lover Huang Wanqiu originally worked in the health team of the guerrilla brigade. When the field hospital was established, she was arranged to be the head nurse.
After all, Huang Wanqiu was not from a major, so she found it a bit difficult, so she approached Wang Xiaohu, hoping that he could help her rearrange a job that suited her.
Wang Xiaohu also felt that Huang Wanqiu's job as a nurse was too hard. He felt sorry for his lover and hoped to arrange a lighter job for her. He had mentioned it to Huang Wanqiu before, but in this era, people have an enterprising spirit and believe in not being afraid of hardship and hardship.
At that time, the hospital itself was short of female nurses. Huang Wanqiu was worried about the negative impact, so she did not agree.
Now Huang Wanqiu offered to change jobs, and Wang Xiaohu fell in love with it, so he came to Xu Dalong, hoping to arrange a job for Huang Wanqiu in the agency.
Xu Dalong knew Wang Xiaohu's thoughts and directly arranged for Huang Wanqiu to work as an assistant in the logistics department, directly under Wang Xiaohu's leadership.
Huang Wanqiu was very happy, but she was worried that other people's opinions would affect Wang Xiaohu, so she proposed not to stay in the logistics department but to work in other departments of the agency.
Wang Xiaohu said that this was the captain's order and must be carried out.
Huang Wanqiu just accepted this appointment, and she was very grateful for the captain's concern.
On this day, Huang Wanqiu came to Wang Xiaohu to report her work. After discussing the work, the two of them had some intimate conversations.
The topic soon turned to the captain.
Huang Wanqiu and Lin Xueying used to live in a dormitory, but they separated after they moved to the county town. Therefore, their relationship is very good and they often communicate with each other when they have free time. Now that she has gained sweet love, she hopes to help Lin Xueying.
She said: "Our captain is so outstanding. His rank and position meet the conditions for marriage. I think Sister Xueying and the captain are a good match. Please help to match them up."
Wang Xiaohu said: "Some people say that hearts are connected. We have the same mind. No wonder we are a family."
Huang Wanqiu said with a smile: "You are so glib. Who is your family? Don't interrupt. You have to help me with Sister Xueying's matter!"
Wang Xiaohu said: "Don't worry, I have been thinking about Brother Dalong for a long time. I will find an opportunity to secretly bring them together."
Wang Xiaohu was very close to Xu Dalong in the Mawushan guerrillas. He used to take care of Xu Dalong's daily life, and later recommended Lin Xueying.
He knew Xu Dalong's living habits and knew that Lin Xueying often brewed coffee for Xu Dalong. This time he found several cans of coffee among the supplies seized by the Takashima Alliance and sent them to Lin Xueying.
Wang Xiaohu knew that Lin Xueying liked the captain, and he also thought that she and the captain were a good match, and hoped to make them happy.
He said deliberately: "Sister-in-law, I feel most at ease with you taking care of Brother Dalong."
Lin Xueying felt sweet in her heart when she heard Wang Xiaohu call her sister-in-law. She also said a bit coquettishly: "What are you talking about? Who is your sister-in-law?"
Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "In my mind, you are my brother Dalong's wife, and of course my sister-in-law."
Lin Xueying couldn't resist him, but she actually liked what he called him, so she stopped denying it. She said: "Brother Dalong is so busy every day, and often stays up late at night to write technical materials for the arsenal. I advise him to have a good rest, but he always doesn't pay attention, saying that he is young and in good health, it doesn't matter. When you see him I also advise him not to be so desperate."
Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "My advice to him is not as effective as your advice to him, right, sister-in-law?"
