Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Just as the West Column led by Zhou Weihan was advancing triumphantly in the Zhinan area, the Eighth Route Army's Middle Column and East Column launched an offensive against Sun Liangcheng's troops.

Chaocheng, Guancheng, and Fanxian are also triangular areas. Chaocheng is located in a prominent position on the north side, while Guancheng and Fanxian are located in the southwest and southeast respectively.

Located in Chaocheng area is Sun Liangcheng's provisional first division. There are about [-] people in this division. It has been in the army for the longest time and has the strongest strength. It is also the priority target of the Eighth Route Army.

As Chaocheng was occupied by the Japanese army, the first temporary division was originally stationed in various villages and towns, peacefully co-existing with the Japanese army.

However, after Sun Liangcheng heard that a main force of the Eighth Route Army had entered the Zhinan area, he ordered his troops to gather in the outskirts of the county where the Japanese army was stationed, using the Japanese army as Austrian aid.

That night, before the battle started, Wuqin's third regiment secretly moved to the west side of the south of Chaocheng County, where the provisional first division was located. It launched an offensive on the south side of the provisional first division.

The Seventh Regiment of the New Third Brigade intercepted the only way for the Japanese army to go south for reinforcements in Chaocheng County, and at the same time was responsible for blocking the temporary first division's escape from the county.

The eighth and ninth regiments of the New Third Brigade were respectively deployed on the roads of the second guerrilla column in Guancheng and the twelfth column in Fanxian going north for reinforcements.

The intention of the Central and Eastern Columns of the Eighth Route Army was very obvious. Taking advantage of the darkness, the large Japanese troops did not dare to reinforce from the outer railway lines, so they concentrated their superior forces and devoured the "elite" provisional first division of Sun Liangcheng's department in one fell swoop.

As soon as the battle started, Sun Liangcheng, who was in the Guancheng area, received a telegram from the temporary First Division requesting reinforcements.

"Sir, the Temporary First Division has been besieged by the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army has a large number of people, and the situation is critical. Reinforcement is requested!" the adjutant reported.

"What? The Eighth Route Army is too courageous. How dare you take the initiative to launch an attack on us?" After learning that the Eighth Route Army launched an offensive with a large number of people, Sun Liangcheng immediately realized that the temporary First Division might not be able to break through with his own strength. He was anxious Like ants on a hot pan.

"Hurry up, contact the Japanese in Chaocheng immediately and ask them to reinforce the temporary First Division, and at the same time let the Japanese in Guancheng and Fanxian cooperate with our two columns to go north for reinforcements!" Sun Liangcheng said hastily.

On the side, Zhao Yunxiang of the second guerrilla column in the Hebei-Chahar War Zone said, "Army seat, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for the little devils to follow our troops. The soldiers below will find out when the time comes, and they will have opinions!"

Sun Liangcheng's current position is the guerrilla commander-in-chief of the Hebei-Chahar Theater and the director of the Luxi Administrative Office appointed by the Nationalist Government, but Sun Liangcheng's confidant has served as the head of the secret service group and the head of the security group.

After the defeat of the Anti-Japanese Allied Army, Zhao Yunxiang returned to his hometown in Yu Province, and later served as the captain of the [-]th Army's officer teaching team, stationed in Beiyuan.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhao Yunxiang led the remnants to continue to raise the anti-Japanese banner in Hebei Province, first under the jurisdiction of Gao Shuxun, the security commander of Hebei Province, and then under Sun Liangcheng's command after Sun Liangcheng arrived.

Therefore, the old officer Sun Liangcheng is still called the military seat.

"I can't control that much anymore. If I waste some more time, I'm afraid the temporary first division will be gone. Hurry up and gather the troops!"

"Yes!" Zhao Yunxiang had no choice but to respond to the old officer's order no matter how reluctant he was.

In the past, the recalcitrant armed forces united with the Japanese army to suppress the Eighth Route Army. Due to the final face, they only carried out in separate ways and did not act in a unified way. But now Sun Liangcheng tore up the last disguise in order to save the temporary first division.

Not long after Zhao Yunxiang left, Sun Liangcheng thought about it and called the New Eighth Army headquarters.

On the other side, Gao Shuxun was awakened by the sound of the phone.

"Brother Jianhou, I'm Sun Liangcheng. The Eighth Route Army has launched an attack on our department tonight. For the sake of my colleagues in the party and the country, please give me a hand!" He placed it extremely low, lest Gao Shuxun would think about the dirty things in the past, and finally sit idly by.

"What? The Eighth Route Army is attacking!" Even Gao Shuxun knew that the Eighth Route Army was going to attack Sun Liangcheng's men, but when he heard about it, his originally muddled mind suddenly cleared up.

"That's right, now our temporary first division is surrounded by the Eighth Route Army!"

"Brother Shaoyun, I am afraid that my New Eighth Army will not be able to quench my near-thirst, but they are all colleagues from the party and the country, so there is no reason for me to refuse to save them. In this way, you lead the troops to reinforce first, and my New Eighth Army will arrive later! "Gao Shuxun said righteously.

"Brother Jianhou, thank you, thank you, I will definitely repay my kindness and virtue!"

After Gao Shuxun hung up the phone, he sneered and immediately called the adjutant over.

"Notify officers above the regiment level to attend a meeting at the military headquarters!"

Gao Shuxun called a meeting of military officers, not to reinforce Sun Liangcheng's troops as promised in the phone call.

At this time, Gao Shuxun was full of confidence in the Eighth Route Army. Since the Eighth Route Army dared to take the initiative to launch an offensive, it must have made careful arrangements. Sun Liangcheng's troops went north to reinforce them.

In this way, Guancheng next to Pu County and Fan County to the east will become a vacuum of power.

The words are divided into two parts.

After the third regiment launched an offensive against the provisional first division on the west side, Wu Qin understood that the battle must be resolved quickly, and he didn't mean to hide it. He directly dispatched two Italian cannons and a Type 81 infantry There are also several mortars of various calibers such as 82, 90, and [-].

The artillery of the third regiment bombarded the outer positions of the provisional first division. Relying on the advantage of artillery fire, in less than an hour, they successively took down the villages stationed by two stubborn soldiers on the outer periphery, and wiped out the villages on the west side in one fell swoop. The recalcitrant troops were compressed to Wukou Town, where the headquarters of the temporarily organized First Division was located.

The two regiments of the third brigade taught by the Luxi Military Region on the east side are also not inferior in the slightest. Although they do not have the same artillery advantage as the troops of the Tainan Military Region, the provisional First Division also lacks heavy firepower.

As a commando, a battalion of soldiers, with two bundles of grenades hanging around their necks, quietly touched the stubborn army's position under the cover of night.

The commando soldiers risked their lives, and they did not hesitate to use grenades to kill the recalcitrant army, and finally tore a hole in the recalcitrant army's position, and the follow-up troops rushed forward.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the recalcitrant soldiers scrambling to retreat and disrupt their positions, the soldiers of the Luxi Military Region took the opportunity to break through the second line of defense.

On the north side, the soldiers of the Seventh Regiment of the Teaching Third Brigade repelled the reinforcements of the Temporary First Division and the Chaocheng Japanese Army three times based on the favorable terrain.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, Sun Liangcheng's reinforcements were late to arrive. Half of the recalcitrant soldiers of the temporary first division were defeated in the battle and fled in all directions. The thousand or so people trapped in Wukou Town took the initiative to encircle The Eighth Route Army that came up surrendered, and only a team directly under the division headquarters with more than [-] people was trapped in several courtyards in Wukou Town.
