War of Resistance

Chapter 498 Continuation of Taierzhuang Victory?

The national army on the front line in Yixian County was not only Tang Enbo's army as the main force to attack, but also Sun Lianzhong's Second Army, which was already the third army Sun Tongxuan's No.12 Army and Cao Fulin's Fifth Army.

"Your Excellency, Head of the Division, Your Excellency, Head of the Division, it's not good, it's not good. The Chinese army has already attacked to the south! The front-line troops in the south request immediate reinforcements!" A Japanese soldier quickly ran to Rensuke Isotani Reporting.

"Nani? The main force of the Chinese army is advancing so fast!" Isotani Rensuke was really surprised. After all, in his prediction, his troops would inevitably last at least two days. Just lit up.

Of course, being anxious is useless. Isotani Rensuke immediately walked up to Chief of Staff Tsubuki and asked, "Chief of Staff, do you think we still have troops to support the southern battlefield?"

Di Bujiagui thought for a while, and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, all the troops we can deploy have already been dispatched to support the northern battlefield. We have no troops to support the south. If we deploy more troops to support, we will continue to fight like this." , we don’t even have enough troops to defend the city walls!”

After hearing these words, Isoya Rensuke's face immediately sank.

After a while, Isoya Rensuke sighed and said: "It seems that we have to give up on the southern battlefield, and immediately notify all troops to prepare to fight to the end! In addition, call the North China Front Army Command and tell them that our enemy has already fought. We have reached the southern city wall, if the reinforcements do not come, then our Tenth Division will smash all the jade pieces to serve the Emperor! Your Excellency Commander, please send reinforcements as soon as possible!"

"Hay!" A combat staff officer next to Rensuke Isoya responded.

……

To be honest, seeing the urgent telegram ahead, General Toshiichi Terauchi was not usually upset and annoyed.

"Snapped!!"

A fine porcelain teacup was shattered instantly by Shouyi in the temple, and the tea in the cup splashed all over the floor.

In a mess!
"Baga! Rensuke Isoya, that idiot! He actually caused such a big trouble to the imperial army!" Shousuchi Terauchi was cursing, his words were full of anger that hates iron but not steel.

Because Rensuke Isoya, the commander of the Tenth Division, led the troops to a big defeat on the front line, the country is already full of doubts about his commanding ability of General Kotobuki Terauchi, and the public opinion is already in an uproar.

Even under such circumstances, Isotani Rensuke still asked for help, and the reinforcement troops were gradually approaching their Yixian County. Could it be that they couldn't even last a day or two?So it's no wonder that Shouyi in the temple was so angry.

But when you get angry, you get angry, should you save it or not?If he refused to save him, he would probably be labeled as a die-hard by those people in the country.

Therefore, General Kotobuki of the temple almost gritted his teeth and ordered to his subordinates: "Order the Yi County defenders under the command of Isoya Rensuke to stick to the front line and wait for the arrival of reinforcements. If you can't even do this request, stick to it!" If it doesn’t work, then let Commander Rensuke Isotani kill himself to thank the Emperor!”

"Hay!!" After the adjutant responded, he immediately went to carry out the military order of General Shou in the temple.

……

A drop of cold sweat slowly flowed down the side of Isoya Rensuke's cheek. As a senior Japanese military officer, he naturally knew what the commander's telegram meant—Your Excellency, Commander, has already moved to kill. !

Isoya Rensuke forced himself to calm down, after all, he is also an old soldier with a lot of combat experience.

As the only officer who is currently qualified to have an independent office on the front line of the entire Yixian County, Isotani Rensuke took out his samurai sword from behind after thinking about it.

After placing the samurai sword horizontally on the table top of the low table, Isoya Rensuke half-kneeled in front of the low table, and then took out the white scarf with the red dog skin plaster printed on it. The words "Wu Yun" and "Long Time".

Isotani Rensuke tied the turban on his forehead which had already taken off his military cap very solemnly, and he kept muttering: "The time to die has come, if you can't keep it, you are really ashamed." To the emperor..."

After fastening the turban, Isoya Rensuke walked out of the office of the division headquarters outside, and said loudly: "Everyone, the time to die has come, please put on the turban with me, fight with me on the battlefield, and defend to the death. Yi County!"

……

Then turn the camera back to the southern position of Yixian County, the frontline combat command of the Second Army of the National Army.

After receiving the support of the main force, the Second Army has obviously greatly enhanced its strength and firepower.

"Boss, now that we have taken the southern position, the next step is to launch a general attack on Little Japan." Chi Fengcheng, the commander of the No. 30 First Division, said excitedly.

It can be said that Chi Fengcheng showed his face in the battle of defending Taierzhuang. Even Chiang Kai-shek summoned him in person, and expressed his praise for his behavior of leading his troops to defend Taierzhuang without losing Taierzhuang and not falling into the hands of the Japanese army. After the war, he will be personally awarded the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal.

For the officers and soldiers of the Northwest Army in Chifeng City and the Second Army, this is another time to become famous and make meritorious deeds!
"Mr. Chi, do you think it's time for a general attack?" Sun Lianzhong, who was staring at the map on the desktop, raised his head and asked Chi Fengcheng.

"Boss, although our troops are now suffering heavy casualties, the little devils are not feeling well. Besides, if our troops from the former Northwest Army attack Yi County again, this will be another great opportunity for us to make meritorious deeds! At that time, our first The Second Army will once again become famous all over the world on behalf of the brothers of the former Northwest Army!" Chi Fengcheng said excitedly.

Who doesn't want the opportunity to make meritorious service?Including Sun Lianzhong, to be honest, at his position, what he pursues is not only the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, but also the opportunity to make meritorious deeds-it is said that people leave their names for their past, and geese leave their voices for their past. Sun Lianzhong also hopes that his name can be Famous all over the world, leaving a strong stroke in history.

So, after listening to Chi Fengcheng's suggestion, Sun Lianzhong couldn't help but be moved.

Sun Lianzhong stood in front of this huge map of Yixian front-line operations. He was thinking left and right, weighing the pros and cons.

Finally, after 2 minutes, Sun Lianzhong turned his face and said to the combat staff next to him: "Now you immediately telegraph the commander-in-chief of the theater for me, and inform the commander-in-chief of the theater, Li, and tell him that our Second Army has already captured the enemy. The position in the south of the county is about to launch a fierce attack on them, tell Chief Li that we need artillery support, if possible, please order the artillery to support our department immediately."

At this time, it was also twelve o'clock in the middle of the night when Zhang Tianhai returned to the headquarters of the first regiment directly under the third theater to hold a meeting of officers.

After receiving the battle report from the front line, Li Zongren, commander of the fifth theater, was not so happy!
Now the troops on the front line of the national army have already attacked outside Yi County, and if they continue to fight, there is great hope of victory!
When this battle is won, it can even be said to be a continuation of the Taierzhuang victory!
You must know that the troops under their command in the Fifth War Zone, except for the Tang Enbo Army, which was transferred later, other large-scale combat troops are all miscellaneous troops with extremely poor combat effectiveness compared to the troops in other theaters. what!
If you don't believe me, let's compare it to the third war zone during the previous Songhu battle?And during the Nanjing Defense War, Tang Shengzhi's seventh theater?There is no harm without comparison. Compared with the elite troops of the Central Army in the third and seventh theaters at that time, these miscellaneous troops in the fifth theater are very different.

You must know the composition of the troops in the Fifth Theater. Before the Battle of Xuzhou, it was composed of Northwest Army troops, Guangxi troops, Northeast Army troops, and Han Fuqu's Shandong Army troops.

These troops all have one thing in common, that is: they fought against Lao Jiang and were not favored. Except for the Guangxi army, no matter which army they belonged to, they belonged to the type that their parents did not love. , It is already very good to be able to keep the number and keep the current situation, let alone expand the army or update equipment.

If it wasn't for the fact that the Japanese had almost reached the fifth war zone at that time, otherwise, the Military Commission would not have agreed to the expansion or equipment update of these motley troops.

If you don't believe me, let's look at Pang Bingxun's Third Army. It seems that it was organized with a regiment number at that time, but in fact, it is only five regiments, and the Military Commission also wants to abolish the Li Zhenqing Field Supplementary Regiment. Lost.

If this Pang Bingxun had not come to Li Zongren, the commander of the fifth war zone, with an old face, and cried out his difficulties with snot and tears, otherwise his field supplementary regiment would have been lost.

It should be noted that Li Zhenqing's supplementary field regiment was retained because Li Zongren, the commander of the fifth theater, took advantage of himself.

It can be seen that before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the life of the motley army was not easy.

The troops below are poorly equipped and the quality of the soldiers is low, so this is also a factor that directly affects the overall combat power of the fifth theater.

Therefore, Li Zongren led such a group of miscellaneous troops to win not only a LY victory, but also a more powerful Taierzhuang victory. This cannot but be said to be due to his personal charm and superb command art.

Seeing that another great victory may be in front of him, how could Li Zongren not be excited?What about not giving support?
