The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 883 It's Not That Easy To Run

As for the many reasons that Fujita Shigeru was looking for, Doi Maru didn't believe it at all, but despised Fujita Shigeru for a while.

You must know that Taohuashan is just a guerrilla cottage. Fujita Shigeru led two old Japanese divisions with the most powerful combat effectiveness, plus a chariot brigade, which is rare in the Japanese army, with a total of 7 horses. He was beaten up in just one day, and he still has the face to blame others. Obviously Shigeru Fujita is shirking responsibility.

Doi Madoka really wanted to reprimand Fujita Shigeru, saying that he was a coward, but Fujita Mao represented the Kwantung Army after all, and he didn't hit people in the face.

Therefore, Maru Doi sent a telegram to Shigeru Fujita, pretending to reprimand the North China Front Army, and then forgot about it.

At this time, he no longer had the idea of ​​continuing to launch an offensive campaign in the direction of Shandong. According to his understanding of Hamada Yoshito, he believed that even if he did not issue an order to stop the campaign, they would do it.

So Tu Feiyuan also put this matter behind him, at least in the recent period of time, he didn't bother to think about things in the direction of Shandong.

Fujita Shigeru led the remnants of the Japanese First and Ninth Divisions and fled to Jinan City.

General Haneda was worried that these defeated soldiers would cause trouble in Jinan City, so he sent troops to guard the city gates to prevent the troops of the Kwantung Army from entering. He only vacated the barracks of the Japanese 141st Division outside the city to let They are stationed temporarily.

In fact, Shigeru Fujita originally didn't want to stay in Jinan City. He planned to take the troops directly to retreat outside the pass, but he was so angry that he went back like this. He really couldn't explain to the commander of the Kwantung Army. Ridiculous.

That's why he brought his troops to Jinan City and asked the North China Front Army to supplement his troops. He wanted a large amount of remuneration.

Although the Japanese army's brigade was blocked outside Jinan City, Fujita Shigeru could not stop him from entering the city.

He came to the front-line headquarters and complained to General Haneda, saying that the information provided to him by General Haneda was inaccurate, and that other Japanese troops did not cooperate.

Before Shigeru Fujita went to Peach Blossom Mountain, he had repeatedly reminded him.

Now that Shigeru Fujita is beating him down, General Haneda is also a little angry, but General Haneda's self-cultivation is much higher than Shigeru Fujita's.

He didn't justify himself, and he didn't bother to pay attention to Fujita Shigeru. Instead, he persuaded Fujita Mao to leave Jinan with his troops as soon as possible and return to the northeast as soon as possible, otherwise, he might be in danger.

As soon as this was mentioned, Shigeru Fujita became angry all of a sudden.

He said: "Don't those bandits from Peach Blossom Mountain dare to chase after Jinan City?"

General Haneda really didn't want to get entangled with this guy. He pretended to agree to Shigeru Fujita's request for supplements and funds, and promised to report to the North China Front Army for him, and then put the matter behind him.

He believed that Gao Jiu would definitely not let it go, and would definitely chase after the Kwantung Army to fight. Fujita Shigeru couldn't stay in the Jinan area at all. General Haneda really didn't bother to entangle with such a bereaved dog like this.

When Shigeru Fujita returned to the station after leaving the city, he saw the heads of the First Division and the Ninth Division waiting for him.

The head of the Ninth Division was seriously injured, and with the help of the guards, he could barely walk around.

Seeing these two, Fujita Shigeru was very upset and couldn't help but get angry.

He asked: "If you don't manage your troops well, what are you doing here?"

The head of the First Division said: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, the First Division has suffered heavy casualties and cannot continue to participate in the battle. I suggest that we leave the customs as soon as possible, return to the northeast, and take a rest."

The head of the Ninth Division also had injuries on his face, and when he spoke, the wound would be affected. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, my Ninth Division suffered the most casualties. The reason why we failed was because we were not familiar with Shandong. The terrain. Let's stop working for the North China Front Army, and return to the Northeast as soon as possible."

In fact, Shigeru Fujita had the same idea as the two of them, and he didn't want to stay in the pass at all, but when they came out, the Kwantung Army placed high hopes on them and asked them to come out to make contributions and win glory for the Kwantung Army.It's really shameful to go back in such a despondent manner.

He said: "I can consider your ideas. But we can't just go back like this. I have already protested to the North China Front Army and asked them to give us supplements. Otherwise, how can I explain to the Commander after I go back? I'm afraid it will be punished." To the ridicule of other colleagues in the Kwantung Army."

The heads of the First Division and the Ninth Division understood what Shigeru Fujita meant, and wanted to get some money from the North China Front Army before leaving the customs.

The casualties of the First Division were not as serious as those of the Ninth Division. The head of the First Division thought Shigeru Fujita was right. If he just went back in such a disheartened manner, he would really feel ashamed in front of his colleagues in the Kwantung Army. Come feel.

You know, the First Division is the number one division among all the troops of the Japanese army. Even a small Peach Blossom Mountain could not be defeated, and he was beaten into such a bear by others. The division heads made fun of them.He expressed his agreement with Fujita Shigeru's opinion.

The head of the Ninth Division was obviously scared of being beaten by the Taohuashan guerrillas. He said: "Your Excellency Chief of Staff, I always feel a little uneasy staying here in Jinan, so don't get entangled with the North China Front Army anymore, or just retreat." Go outside."

Shigeru Fujita got angry and said: "Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. You are so flustered now that you have lost the dignity of a soldier. What do you have to worry about? There are so many yellow soldiers here in Jinan City." Is it possible that Gao Jiu dares to chase him to Jinan City? You should hurry to Jinan City to recuperate."

Having said that, Shigeru Fujita sent away the heads of the First Division and the Ninth Division on the pretext that he still had things to deal with.

At this time, on the Jinan-Zhengzhou Highway, dozens of infantry fighting vehicles, 40 107mm rocket launchers and a large number of military trucks were heading towards Jinan City at high speed.There are also a large number of cavalry from the Taohuashan guerrillas around the convoy.

Gao Jiu, Zhang Quan, Wang Zhankui, and Guo Hengming led more than 2000 special forces members who stayed in Taohuashan to Jinan City, preparing to catch up with the Japanese Kwantung Army and wipe them out.

Gao Jiu is a cautious person. Although he is furious, he knows that the Japanese Kwantung Army still has tens of thousands of troops, and the Taohuashan guerrillas cannot completely wipe it out.

He sent a telegram to Jiang Xiaomei, asking her to inform the underground party to deploy troops in vast areas in Shandong and Hebei to intercept them, so that the Kwantung Army's bastards could not escape back outside the pass.

The underground party armed forces attached great importance to Gao Jiu's request. The underground party armed forces in the Shandong area not only mobilized 20 regiments of troops, preparing to intercept the Japanese army along the way, but also made contact with the underground party armed forces in Hebei through the higher-level underground party organization. .

The underground anti-Japanese armed forces in the direction of Hebei also decided to dispatch no less than 20 regiments of troops to block the Japanese army along the way.

After receiving the telegram from Jiang Xiaomei, Gao Jiu had a complete understanding in his mind.

He believed that with such a huge force from the underground party to intercept, it would be impossible for the devils of the Kwantung Army to escape back outside the pass.

Xu Zhongming, who was in Jinan City, received a telegram from Gao Jiu asking them to provide relevant information about the temporary station of the troops of the Japanese Guanzhong Army in Jinan City.

This was easy to do, and soon Xu Zhongming told Gao Jiu where the first and ninth divisions of the Kwantung Army were currently located.

Gao Jiu immediately issued an order to the air force, and a large number of bombers flew to Jinan City from Taohuashan, Nanyang and Kaifeng airports.

Although Fujita Shigeru firmly believed that it was impossible for Gao Jiu to come to Jinan City, he still felt a little uneasy.

This feeling made him restless, and his anger became extremely high. The officers and soldiers of the Japanese army around him were constantly reprimanded by him for no reason, which made everyone feel insecure. avoid him.

The uneasiness in Shigeru Fujita's heart was soon fulfilled, and Gao Jiu actually chased him to Jinan City.

He heard the shrill air-raid siren sounding outside, and hurriedly got into the air-raid shelter under the guard of the guards.

The barracks currently occupied by the Kwantung Army were originally the barracks of the 141st Division of the Japanese Army.Now the 141st Division has gone to Tai'an City, and built an air-raid shelter in this barracks. The air-raid shelter is too small, barely able to accommodate a division-level Japanese military command organization.

Shigeru Fujita and others got into the air-raid shelter, but the other Japanese officers and soldiers had nowhere to hide, so they could only run out of the barracks in a panic, hoping to avoid the bombing of the Taohuashan guerrilla air force.

When attacking Taohuashan, the officers and soldiers of the Japanese army had already experienced Taohuashan, especially the power of the air force. Those guys threw bombs as if they didn’t need money, especially the 230kg giant bomb. A bomb is worth a lot Qian Dayang, this kind of giant bomb is so powerful that a single bomb can level the barracks of an infantry brigade.

The devils ran to the field outside the barracks in a panic, but there were too many of them, and they couldn't run fast at all when they were crowded. The guerrilla bombers quickly flew over the barracks, and then dropped the bombs. down.

The first to arrive here was the bomber that took off from Taohuashan.After they dropped the bombs, shortly after they left, bombers from the direction of Nanyang and Kaifeng came one after another.

After the violent bombing, not only did thousands of Japanese soldiers be directly killed, but also the entire camp of the 141st Division was razed to the ground.

Shigeru Fujita hid in the air-raid shelter, and he could also feel the vibration from the violent explosion on the ground.

He prayed for Auntie Xianzhao's blessing, and prayed that the enemy's giant bombs would not be thrown directly above the air-raid shelter, otherwise, even the air-raid shelter would not be able to bear it.

This round of bombing was finally over, and Shigeru Fujita got out of the air-raid shelter.

The scene in front of him was horrible, the entire barracks had been turned into ruins, and the corpses of devil soldiers were everywhere.

At this time, he had lost the idea of ​​asking for benefits from the North China Front Army, and decided to retreat outside the pass immediately. He was about to send someone to find the heads of the First Division and the Ninth Division and tell them to lead the troops to retreat.

Unexpectedly, the heads of the First Division and the Ninth Division didn't wait for his order at all, and ran away with the troops, and even he, the chief of staff, didn't bother to notify them.

"Eight ducks." Shigeru Fujita was so angry that he got into the car.He galloped in the direction outside the pass.

General Haneda heard the roar of bombers in the city, followed by continuous explosions that shook the sky and the earth.

He knew that Gao Jiu's revenge was coming, and he had already thought that Gao Jiu would come to take revenge, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

The commander of the 12th Army, Dongxiang Yoshino, hurriedly came to see the Deputy Chief of Staff Haneda. The troops of the Kwantung Army were attacked by the Taohuashan guerrillas.

Deputy Chief of Staff Haneda told him directly that this is the boundary of Shandong, which is under the control of the commander of the 12th Army, and let Dongxiang Yoshino make his own decision.

Dongxiang Yoshino finally understood that General Haneda didn't want to take care of the affairs of the Kwantung Army at all.

Of course, he didn't want to take care of it. If the 12th Army intervened in the war between Gao Jiu and the Kwantung Army, and the Kwantung Army ran out of the pass, the 12th Army would be in trouble.

He hastily returned to his headquarters and asked his adjutant to secretly inform all the troops under the jurisdiction of the 12th Army in the Shandong area not to participate in the battle between Gao Jiu and the Kwantung Army, and to close the gate of the barracks, no matter what happened outside , are not allowed to leave the barracks.

Fujita Shigeru and the remnants of the Kwantung Army ran more than 50 kilometers in one breath, feeling very tired, so they stopped to rest.

Before they could catch their breath, the air force of the Taohuashan guerrillas flew over again.

Tens of thousands of devil soldiers are ready for air defense this time, but the only thing they can do is to try not to gather together as much as possible to avoid causing heavy casualties.

The guerrillas on the bomber saw that there were ghost soldiers everywhere on the ground. Although the distance between them was relatively large, it was a bit uneconomical to throw the aerial bomb, but they threw the bomb anyway, because the aerial bomb could not be taken back. Otherwise, a plane full of aerial bombs would be prone to accidents when landing, so they dropped the bombs without hesitation.

Even though the devils were very scattered, this round of bombing still caused the death and injury of hundreds of devil soldiers.

The devil soldiers were really terrified of being bombed. They couldn't take a rest, and they couldn't take care of listening to the commander's words. They ran towards the north in a panic, hoping to get as far away from the enemy as possible, hoping to be able to rely on their own strength The two short legs escaped the bombing range of the bomber.

The devil soldiers were fleeing in a panic when they were suddenly ambushed by the anti-Japanese armed forces of the underground party.

Appearing on both sides of the road was a regiment of the underground party. After they launched the attack, they saw that there were too many devil soldiers, so they quickly left the battlefield. Even so, the devil soldiers lost more than 100 soldiers people.
