Facing the fierce offensive of Xie Tian's army, Miyamoto was helpless.
They had just fought, and he had already lost the mining area and half of his troops. Only then did he truly realize the difficulty of Xie Tian (Xie Baoqing), and at the same time he also saw Xie Tian's intentions.
Xie Baoqing didn't want to start a war with me in the city. He wanted to lure my people to gather outside the city and annihilate them.
What is he worried about?
He is naturally concerned about the Chinese people who are like pigs and dogs.
Miyamoto Kujiumu accurately grasped Xie Tian's weakness and ordered the troops to hold on. At the same time, he arrested a large number of civilians and imprisoned them in military camps. As long as Xie Tian's troops launched an offensive, the Japanese army would immediately push those civilians to Use the front as a shield.
One day, two days, three days...
Miyamoto Jiujiumu finally breathed a sigh of relief, he could keep spending time with Xie Tian like this.
If Xie Tian is not afraid that the people in the city will starve to death one by one, then you will consume me until you withdraw your troops.
Yangquan was consuming, Niangzi Pass was consuming, and Pingxing Pass, which had been progressing the slowest, became the fastest. When Xie Tian dropped the seventh cluster bomb on the head of the Nakamura Division, the Nakamura Division finally abandoned it at night. Guard Ping Xingguan and flee towards Laiyuan.
The battle of Pingxingguan, which lasted for eleven days, ended. Chu Yunfei led the 50th Army to occupy Pingxingguan and guard the first gateway from North China to Shanxi.
The Japanese in Niangziguan and Yangquan have been trapped for eight days.
Let’s talk about the Japs in Niangzi Pass first. They were desperate but did not wait for reinforcements. Needless to say, Yangquan, Miyamoto Jiujiumu himself was trapped, so there were no reinforcements to support Niangzi Pass.
The Japs in Jingxing tentatively launched a rescue, but as soon as they left Jingxing, they were ambushed by the 303rd Division of the 302nd Division of the 51st Army and hurriedly retreated to Jingxing.
The only support the Niangziguan Japs can get now is that the Shijiazhuang Army Aviation Brigade airdrops some supplies to them at night, barely able to survive from starvation.
It's so wicked. Zhao Gang led the 301st Division to encircle Niangzi instead of fighting. He only fired a few symbolic shots every day to tell you that we are still there.
According to the news from the scouts who took the risk to spy, the railway from Niangziguan to Shijiazhuang on the Zhengtai Railway has been damaged. A tunnel has been blown down and the train is no longer passable.
The People's Liberation Army that besieged Niangziguan was carrying out construction and fortifications in various dangerous areas, assuming a posture of fighting a protracted war with the Japanese in Niangziguan.
The little devils have never fought such a battle. We built fortifications like iron barrels in Niangziguan, but instead of fighting, they built fortifications outside, waiting for us to fight.
Everyone knows that fortifications are easy to defend and difficult to attack, but is your deceitful style of play really good?
What's even more irritating is that you actually went out to do exercises and sang military songs. Do you regard this as a military training ground?
The 301st Division now also starts singing the PLA military song during exercises. This is the first team of the 51st Army to start singing the PLA military song. Xu Shiyou said nothing after learning about it.
No matter from which aspect, the 51st Army is now a team in the 10th Theater Command. Is there anything wrong with singing the PLA military song?
If Xu Shiyou's superior, other than Xie Tian, knew that the current 51st Army, the original 386th Brigade, had undergone such changes, his face would definitely be very ugly.
In Yangquan, Miyamoto Jiujiumu was at odds with Xie Tian, and there was no fight, no surrender, no retreat, and no peace.
Xie Tian is not in a hurry now. Okay, if you want to use it with me, then just use it. Anyway, the mining area is now in my hands. I will clear the periphery of Yangquan first.
Sun Jintao led the independent regiment to easily capture Meng County and opened up a channel for coal to be transported to Taiyuan through the Zhengtai Line.
As trains of high-quality coal arrived in Taiyuan, the impetuous voices in Taiyuan City gradually calmed down.
You can make trouble if you want, and calm down if you want to calm down?
There is nothing so cheap in this world.
Pang Yuan signed the order with a dark face to purge the hidden spies in Taiyuan City. No matter who you are, I will arrest them all.
Tang Haoer called Xie Tian with a grimace: "My uncle was arrested by Mr. Pang, and my aunt called me several times. I really don't want to make this call to you, but my uncle..."
Xie Tian smiled and said, "Mr. Pang is just trying to show off to Yan Xishan and the Yan'an authorities. Don't worry, he is sensible and my uncle will not be wronged."
As expected, Xu Lixin was not aggrieved at all. Pang Yuan placed him in Yan Mansion and entertained him with good food and drinks. He even had a meal with him in person, but he was not allowed to contact the outside world.
Some people want to show you their faces.
As a result, Pang Yuan got an unexpected surprise when he captured Xu Lixin. After receiving a call from Mr. Jingguo himself, he hurriedly called Xie Tian who was in the Yangquan mining area: "You should come back quickly. It will take three days." Later, Commander-in-Chief He will personally lead an allied inspection team to Taiyuan, and you need to receive it personally."
Xie Tian smiled and said: "They have done all this pretense, so they must give us some benefits."
Pang Yuan laughed: "Do you think President He will come empty-handed? At least he must pay us back the balance they owe us."
One moment after another, now Pang Yuan is also openly calculating the balance of the sale of Kita Seiichi. This is really red when you are close to Zhu, and black when you are close to Mo. In the past, Pang Yuan never even thought about this kind of extortion. Things will happen to themselves.
Xie Tian laughed loudly: "Okay, I will go back after arranging things here."
Although Miyamoto Jiujiumu had made up his mind to avoid confrontation with Xie Tian, Yangquan was still in a state of war, and Xie Tian was a little worried about leaving here.
Xie Tian drove to the barracks built ahead. The barracks were almost blocking the north gate of Yangquan. If you take one more step forward, you will be within the effective shooting range of the 38-meter cover. With a telescope, you can clearly see the city wall. The little devil’s Rendanhu is so bullying.
Qin Fen, who was sitting in the barracks, saw Xie Tian arriving and rushed to greet him. Xie Tian asked with a straight face: "How is it going?"
"We are digging. We don't want to make too much noise during the day for fear of the Japanese getting suspicious. We can dig tunnels into the city in three days at most."
As he spoke, Qin Fen handed Xie Tian a telescope, pointed at the city and said angrily: "Look, damn, these little devils are so damn shameless, they have kidnapped a bunch of people all day long. At the top of the city."
Xie Tian took the telescope with a dark face and looked at it. Along the city wall, many people were tied up with ropes and stood in front of the battlements. There were men and women, old and young. Behind them were little Japs patrolling back and forth. Look. Anyone who was in low spirits was given a butt of a gun or a blow or a kick.
Xie Tian couldn't bear to watch any more and strode towards the tent that was set up. He said with a dark face: "We can only let the villagers suffer for a few more days. Tell the soldiers to work harder and speed up the progress. Let's go early." The day we reach Yangquan, the people will be out of misery one day earlier."
Qin Fen nodded and said: "Yes, the soldiers are now divided into teams and working day and night. We have opened a total of twenty-four tunnels. The one with the fastest progress has almost reached the bottom of the city wall. It is just that too much soil was dug out during the day and it is difficult to deal with it. , just build an earthen wall outside the barracks to paralyze the enemy."
Xie Tian grunted and said: "Commander He will lead the Allied inspection team to Taiyuan in three days. Maybe then I will bring them to the Yangquan front line. Don't rush in because of this matter. Our war is not a show for anyone to see." , fight the battle however you want, safety must always come first.”
Qin Fen nodded: "I understand."
Although Qin Fen's answer was simple, Xie Tian knew that Qin Fen really understood what he meant and was not worried that he would understand it wrong.
