The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 729 I have never fought such a happy battle

The corruption of the situation greatly shocked the Japanese Southern Front Army, and they held an emergency combat meeting to study how to deal with Gao Jiu.

Gangcun Ningci believed that the Taohuashan guerrillas had extremely strong mobile combat capabilities, and the Japanese and puppet troops in various places defended in different areas, which could not stop their blows at all.The only way to deal with Gao Jiu is to mobilize large forces for encirclement and suppression.

Although the current Gao Jiu's team has grown, there is also a great flaw for Gao Jiu, that is, their mobile combat capabilities have been greatly reduced. He must protect the puppet troops who followed him anyway. As well as the troops of the underground party and the military command, that is to say, the area where Gao Jiu and others are active has been limited to the area they control.

The large Japanese army then had a clear target, and he suggested mobilizing a large army to attack the area currently controlled by Gao Jiu and others, forcing Gao Jiu to fight the Japanese army.

Both the commander and the chief of staff of the southern front army believed that Gangcun Ningci's suggestion was correct, so they decided to organize a large army to encircle and suppress Gao Jiu.

This time the Japanese army plans to dispatch one and a half divisions of the 11th Army, an independent mixed brigade, and two Japanese independent garrison teams with a total strength of 31000, and five brigades of the Huang Xie Army with a total strength of 23000. Go to attack the coalition forces commanded by Gao Jiu.

The military command and the underground party accurately passed on a large amount of information about the mobilization of the Japanese and puppet troops.

Gao Jiu also went all out, and sent a transport plane to deliver a large amount of weapons and ammunition. He opened his posture and wanted to start a decisive battle with the Japanese army.

In order to increase its strength, the underground party sent two regiments of regular troops, 12 county brigades and a large number of guerrillas.In terms of the underground party alone, the troops have reached more than 18000 people.

The Loyalty and National Salvation Army also sent two detachments with a total strength of more than 6000 people.

Gao Jiu quickly recruited a large number of puppet troops, and the total number of puppet troops reached more than 22000.

At this time, the total strength of the coalition forces commanded by Gao Jiu had reached its peak.More than [-] people.

In order to boost morale, Gao Jiu distributed weapons and ammunition to these troops, and also distributed 20 oceans to each of them.After the battle, each person will give them another 30 oceans, and promise that the Taohuashan guerrillas will give them a large pension for all the dead and disabled.

The coalition troops received new weapons and equipment, and a large bounty was issued, and their morale was very high.

In order to cooperate with the operation of the coalition forces, the underground party and the Guofu also dispatched the main force to attack the Japanese army.

The Japanese army was tired of fighting, and the Japanese army that was originally going to deal with Gao Jiu had to withdraw part of it to deal with the attacks of the underground party and the Guo army, which reduced the number of Japanese troops used to attack Gao Jiu from 31000 to 19000. Greatly reduced the pressure on the coalition forces.

Gangcun Ningci is a brilliant Japanese general. Although his troops have been reduced, he still has the confidence to defeat or even destroy the newly formed coalition forces.

Soon after, the vanguard of the Japanese army attacked Fengdu County, which was occupied by the Dalian army, and a great battle began.

Although Gao Jiu knew that the force he currently controlled was no less than that of the Japanese army, but they lacked coordination and could not cooperate with each other in combat. The overall combat effectiveness was inferior to that of the Japanese army.

It is impossible for Gao Jiu to ask these troops to fight complicated battles, especially those puppet troops who have just turned back. They are forced to surrender because of the strength of the Taohuashan guerrillas, and it is even more impossible to command them to fight complicated battles , Once they encounter setbacks, they are likely to collapse immediately.

Therefore, Gao Jiu commanded these puppet troops and the troops of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army, using their familiar tactics, that is, relying on strong fortifications for defense.

The Taohuashan guerrillas led the anti-puppet troops and the Loyalty and National Salvation Army troops, dug a large number of trenches, and used the trenches and city walls to block the attack, consuming the strength of the Japanese and puppet troops.

Gao Jiu led the main force of the two regiments of the Taohuashan guerrillas and the underground party, as the mobile force of this battle, looking for fighters to attack the Japanese army.

Outside Fengdu County, the officers and soldiers of the two regiments of the puppet army anyway saw a brigade of Japanese troops approaching from a distance in the trenches. Frightened by the silver prestige of the Japanese army in the past, the puppet army was a little scared anyway, because they It is very clear that relying on their own strength, they are no match for the Japanese army at all. If there were no guerrillas from Taohuashan to supervise them, they would probably flee in a swarm.

The Japanese army launched an attack. In order to deter the puppet army anyway, the Japanese army launched a round of shelling, dispatched more than a dozen armored vehicles, covered the brigade of devil soldiers and rushed towards the puppet army's position anyway.

Anyway, the puppet soldiers suddenly panicked, and many people were ready to flee.If the officers hadn't shouted loudly, they would have already collapsed.

Seeing the Japanese army approaching step by step, not only the ordinary soldiers, but even some officers were shaken.

Just as they were about to jump out of the trench and escape, they heard violent artillery fire from behind.

The members of the Taohuashan guerrilla team used a large number of artillery transported by air to bombard the Japanese army. The intensity of the artillery fire far exceeded that of the Japanese army, and the attacking Japanese army was blown to pieces.

Immediately afterwards, the armored vehicles of the Japanese army rushing forward were attacked by rockets.The armored vehicles were beaten into balls of fire like paper.

Seeing this situation, the officers and soldiers of the puppet army who were responsible for the blocking mission became excited. Not only did they dispel the idea of ​​fleeing, but their morale was high, and they opened fire violently at the Japanese army.

Gao Jiu equipped them with a large number of machine guns, and the bullets could also be supplied from the open mouth. Anyway, the puppet troops fired desperately, and those Japanese troops who lost the cover of the armored vehicles were exposed to the rain of bullets and fell down in pieces.

The Japanese army's first attack was repulsed just like that, and the officers and soldiers on the blocking position gave out loud cheers. Their morale was boosted and they were completely confident, and they repelled the Japanese attack again.

Soon after, the Japanese army will attack again.They began to prepare for firepower. When their artillery fired, the artillery of the Taohuashan guerrillas, who had already locked the position of their artillery positions, immediately began to shell their artillery positions.

This was an asymmetric shelling operation. The largest caliber of the Japanese artillery was the 70mm Type 92 infantry gun, while the Taohuashan guerrillas brought a 105mm howitzer.

The Japanese army could not hit the artillery of the Taohuashan guerrillas, and the artillery of the Taohuashan guerrillas could easily bombard the Japanese army in a very safe situation.

The result of such an artillery battle can be imagined. Soon, the artillery of the Japanese army fell silent collectively.

Seeing this situation, the officers and soldiers of the puppet army guarding the trenches felt very relieved. They began to look down on the Japanese army from the original fear, and their morale was high.

The Japanese army was very stubborn. They now knew that they were inferior to the anti-Japanese army in terms of firepower, but they still launched an attack again.

This time, the mental state of the officers and soldiers guarding the trenches was completely different. They were gearing up, and when the Japanese army rushed up, they opened fire with full firepower, beating the Japanese soldiers on their backs and retreating in embarrassment again.

Gao Jiu saw that the time was right and gave the order to attack.

The troops of the two regiments of the underground party had already put on the equipment of the Taohuashan guerrillas. They each had a submachine gun, as well as a large number of machine guns and artillery. After that, they shouted and rushed out. The soldiers charged with machine guns and submachine guns, and the Japanese army couldn't resist it at all.

The puppet soldiers guarding the trenches bravely jumped out of the trenches when they saw this situation, and launched an attack on the Japanese army.

At this time, the artillery of the Taohuashan guerrillas was bombarding the rear of the Japanese army. The Japanese army could not gather its troops. The Japanese army in front had just retreated. The Japanese army was defeated by artillery fire, and the Japanese army was unable to organize an effective resistance, and was soon defeated, and they began to flee in all directions.

The officers and soldiers of the anti-Japanese army used to see the aggressive Japanese army as the attacking side, but now they were beaten and fled, and the morale of the officers and soldiers became even stronger. pent-up rage.

It was a regiment of the Japanese army who came to attack. Under the pursuit of the anti-Japanese army, they ran all the way, and the officers and soldiers of the Japanese army were knocked to the ground by the anti-Japanese army who were chasing them.

The Japanese army ran for seven or eight miles in one breath, and now there is less than one brigade left of the Japanese army in one regiment.

The officers and soldiers of the anti-Japanese army were fighting excitedly, and they continued to pursue the Japanese army regardless of fatigue.

Suddenly, the fleeing Japanese soldiers stopped, and a large group of Japanese soldiers appeared in front of them.
It turned out that the reinforcements of the Japanese army had arrived, and it was a brigade of the Japanese army. The regiment of the Japanese army that was defeated by the anti-Japanese army was one of the regiments of the brigade.

At this time, the strength of the Japanese army reached more than [-] people, and behind it was a brigade of more than [-] people from the puppet army.

The strength of the Anti-Japanese Army has four regiments of more than [-] people, and its strength is already at a disadvantage.

Those puppet troops who were anyway prepared to retreat and return to their original defensive positions when they saw the large number of Japanese soldiers.

Gao Jiu knew that under such circumstances, they must not be allowed to retreat. If the Japanese army pursued at this time, the anti-Japanese army would soon turn from retreat to rout, and the puppet army would be finished anyway.

Gao Jiu ordered the defense to be organized on the spot, and he led the main force of the Taohuashan guerrillas to rush over in person.

Gao Jiu saw that the Japanese army had begun to attack, and immediately ordered the artillery to shell violently at the Japanese army to suppress the Japanese army's offensive momentum.

Seeing the fierce artillery fire from the Taohuashan guerrillas, the other officers and soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Army felt a lot more at ease, especially when they saw Gao Jiu coming over in person, their confidence immediately doubled.

They seized the time to rush to repair the fortifications and prepare to repel the enemy's attack.

The Japanese army continued to attack under fierce artillery fire. They lost a lot of troops and finally rushed to the temporary position of the anti-Japanese army, but were repelled by the officers and soldiers of the anti-Japanese army with fierce firepower.

The brigade commander of the Japanese army saw that the enemy's artillery fire was fierce, and if he forced an attack, it would cause a lot of casualties, so he ordered the Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army, which was following them, to stand in front of the Japanese army and let them attack. Consume the strength and ammunition of the anti-Japanese army.

At this time, the intelligence agents of the Taohuashan guerrillas who stayed in the Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army received an order from Gao Jiu by radio to let them launch a surprise attack on camera when they passed by the Japanese positions.

At the same time, Gao Jiu had already asked Wang Zhankui and Guo Hengming to lead 200 Taohuashan guerrillas to go around behind the enemy to cooperate with Huang Xiejun's troops anyway.

The brigade commander of the 6000th Brigade of Huang Xiejun led more than [-] officers and soldiers of the whole brigade to the forward position of the Japanese army.

The Japanese army opened a passage to let them pass.

After the troops of the Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army entered the Japanese position, the brigade commander suddenly issued an order for a surprise attack.

The officers and soldiers of the Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army knew that the Japanese devils let them go to the front to serve as cannon fodder for the devils. They were full of anger at the Japanese army. , launched a surprise attack on the unsuspecting devil soldiers.

The Japanese army was caught off guard and was beaten into chaos.

Gao Jiu saw the Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army fight back, and immediately ordered all the anti-Japanese troops to attack the Japanese army.

The Taohuashan guerrillas interspersed in the Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army also had an important task, which was to attack the command organization of the Japanese army.

Just before the Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army started, they had already set their sights on the brigade headquarters of the Japanese army.The brigade headquarters of the Japanese army is easy to identify. There are six or seven tents on a small hill, with many antennas, as well as cars and jeeps, surrounded by a large number of Japanese guards.

As soon as the battle started, several Taohuashan guerrillas took rocket launchers and fired rockets at the tents. Soon, all the tents were destroyed.

The guerrillas guessed right, this was the brigade command organization of the Japanese army, and the brigade commander and main senior officers of the Japanese army were wiped out immediately.

The Eighth Brigade of the Huang Xie Army launched a surprise attack inside the Japanese position.The Japanese army was also attacked by the Taohuashan guerrillas led by Wang Zhankui and Guo Hengming.

Gao Jiu led the main force of the Anti-Japanese Army to rush forward.

The Japanese army couldn't stand such a blow at all, and it collapsed in an instant.

Except for the Taohuashan guerrillas, the other anti-Japanese troops who participated in the battle had never fought such a happy battle in their life. Everyone had high morale and chased and killed the Japanese soldiers who fled everywhere.

The battle lasted less than an hour, and a brigade of the entire Japanese army was completely wiped out by the anti-Japanese army.

Gao Jiu was very satisfied with the victory of this battle. He commended all the commanders and fighters of the troops who participated in the battle. After the battle is over, each person will be rewarded another 20 oceans.

Then he took this highly morale unit to Sendai County to attack another Japanese brigade.
