Doihara sneered because he had already found a way to deal with Dragon Boat Festival and the Eighth Route Army.
And Momotaro seemed to understand something after seeing Doihara's cunning smile.
The two Japs had a tacit understanding, and then carried out a raid on the suspicious area according to the original plan.
Of course, Li Yunlong had already retreated with his people, and the people had also fled.
The little devils who had nowhere to vent their anger had no choice but to vent their anger on ordinary people's houses. They set fire to the ordinary people's houses and then walked away.
Seeing that the Japanese were gone, Li Yunlong came back with people to help the people build houses.
And after this torment, another four or five days passed. Then Li Yunlong and Duanwu received the news that the Japs were heading south in large numbers, heading towards the Kangzhuang and Nigou areas on the north side of Zaozhuang and Taierzhuang.
The security forces stationed here then engaged in battle with the little devils.
In order to lure the enemy deeper, Captain Liu Lanzhai of the 31st Division led his cavalry company from Taierzhuang and searched in the direction of Yixian. The commander of the 91st Brigade, Ni Zibin, led the 183rd Regiment to follow up and encountered the Japanese army at Kangzhuang, 20 miles south of Yixian.
The battle in the Taierzhuang area has officially begun.
Our cavalry fought and retreated in order to lure the enemy deeper. The Japanese approached Taierzhuang and began to launch a large-scale attack on the Taierzhuang area.
The Japanese set up an artillery position in Liujiahu Village, Wuli North of Taierzhuang, and lined up 10 cannons to blast Taierzhuang fiercely.
Gao Hongli, commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 183rd Regiment of the 91st Brigade, led his soldiers, each with a machete and 8 grenades, into the enemy's artillery position, cutting down the enemy until they could not parry, and abandoned the artillery and fled.
At that time, there was a rumor on the Taierzhuang battlefield: "The story of Zhang Fei making a big fuss in Liujia Lake".
The most brutal thing was the battle for the north gate of Taierzhuang.
More than 2,000 Japs, with the cooperation of aircraft, artillery and tanks, launched a massive attack on Taierzhuang.
The 1st Battalion of the 186th Regiment, which defended the north gate of Taierzhuang, resisted tenaciously under the command of Commander Wang Zhen and Battalion Commander Jiang Changtai, and launched brutal hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese outside the city's north gate, repelling Japanese attacks many times.
The 1st Battalion of the 186th Regiment are all new recruits, and they have only been in the army for half a year at most.
However, in the battle for the north gate, almost all of them died at the north gate of Taierzhuang.
Commander Wang Zhen also personally set up a machine gun and fired at the Japanese troops outside the city.
That night, 200 Japanese troops broke through the Xiaobei Gate and hid in the Taishan Temple near the Xiaobei Gate. Commander Wang Zhen personally led his soldiers to besiege the enemies of the Taishan Temple and finally eliminate them.
However, the little Japanese were determined to be evil and launched fierce attacks on Taierzhuang many times and invaded Taierzhuang.
The defending 2nd Army fought tenaciously and launched a fierce battle with the Japanese army. The Japanese attacked fiercely for three days and three nights before they broke into the city.
But at this time, the little devils still did not completely occupy Taierzhuang.
At the same time, after Duanwu received the battle report from the front, he quickly called all the officers of the Supervision Corps for a meeting.
The battle of Taierzhuang had already begun, and he couldn't just watch it honestly.
However, their weapons and equipment are insufficient. If they directly intervene in the frontal battlefield, it can be said that no matter how many people they have, they will not die. The Battle of Taierzhuang is known as the Verdun of the East. Tens of thousands of people were put in there to stir up trouble, and tens of thousands of people were killed or injured, as if it were a common occurrence.
Therefore, with Duanwu's current strength, and if he intervenes when there is insufficient weapons and equipment, I am afraid it will not be much better than other troops.
The reason why the Dragon Boat Festival supervision team fought so bravely before was because of their proper tactics and advanced weapons.
And if there are no automatic weapons and the machine guns have to be shut down, then they can only be tortured by the little devils.
The little devil's shooting skills are good, even Duanwu has to admit this. Although in terms of ideas, he can crush any little devil, but the overall shooting level of the supervisory team, no more than one-third can hit the target at a distance of 100 meters.
The number of veterans has been seriously reduced, and it is difficult for new recruits to fight even 50 meters, let alone 100 meters.
Therefore, in this case, directly intervening in the frontal battlefield is just adding to the little devil's military medal.
If Duanwu doesn't do such a stupid thing, Duanwu must first buy arms, because only with arms can his supervisory team be proud again.
And he couldn't stand the kid's two bombings a day.
Although the bombing lasted for almost a month, the casualties of the supervision team were not very large. But very annoying.
Are you angry when you see that the kid's plane can't be shot down?
Therefore, Duanwu decided to develop weapons and equipment first and hold back the Japs behind them in order to contain the Japs' forces on the front lines.
So at this time, Ma Ping'an's information became extremely important. With Ma Pingan's disdainful efforts, he finally found a transfer station for the little devils, which was located in Xintai County, a hundred kilometers south of Wanjialing.
This is a large county town with a permanent population of more than 40,000.
The county magistrate, Sun Fugui, was a traitor. After the Japanese arrived in Xintai County, he opened the city gates and invited the imperial army to enter the city.
And what he has in common with other traitors is that his son studied in Japan and admired the Japanese Empire very much.
Later, I heard that the Empire of Japan was going to establish a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere in China. I was so excited that I couldn't sleep for several months. I contacted my father to be a traitor, saying that the benefits would be great.
So his father became a traitor. He not only opened the city gate to welcome the Japanese into the city, but also secretly murdered many anti-Japanese comrades.
The underground party tried to get rid of this traitor several times. But this traitor also knew that he was full of evil, and he brought at least thirty guards with him when he went out.
Moreover, the little devil seemed to attach great importance to him, and specially sent two senior agents from the special high school class to protect Sun Fugui personally. Therefore, several attempts to assassinate Sun Fugui were unsuccessful.
Duanwu pointed to Xintai County Road on the map: "Everything we need is here. But I guess the little devil will be prepared."
Ma Ping'an said: "Isn't this possible? Our comrades said that no abnormalities were found near Xintai County."
Having said this, Ma Pingan smiled awkwardly and said: "Brother Duanwu, logically speaking, I should give this information about Xintai County to Lao Li. But, haha!"
Duanwu understood the meaning of Ma Ping'an's words. Ma Ping'an is an underground party. If he has something good to do, he should naturally send this information to his own people.
But when Ma Pingan took it out at this time, it was enough to show that Ma Pingan was thinking about you, Brother Duanwu. If you, Brother Duanwu, doubted it again, wouldn't it be wrong?
Duanwu thought for a while and said, "Well, let's go to Xintai County to pick up the weapons and equipment here, and then make a big fuss!"
"good!"
At this time, all the company and battalion-level officers in the conference hall applauded.
This Wanjialing is really good, and they have been resting for more than 20 days. But without the Japanese to fight, they would be really miserable.
What's more, you have to be on guard against the bombings of the Japs every day, but you can't hit them. Are you angry? .
