The Rise of the Great Powers in the War of Resistance

One column is directly under the heavy artillery brigade, two infantry divisions are directly under the artillery regiment, dozens of 155mm howitzers, hundreds of 105mm howitzers, so many cannons, enough for the little devils to drink a pot.

This time, since there were not many shells carried, the shelling of the little devils has been seldom.

If all the cannons were fired, it would probably only last an hour of shelling, but now it's all right, the two positions of the little devil have been burned, and a lot of shells can be saved.

"Order! Heavy artillery brigade and two artillery regiments, bombard the remaining positions of the little devil."

Wu Youqing who put down the binoculars had a domineering expression on his face, thinking in his heart, this time, all the little devils' positions will be smashed, and then all the troops will charge together to see if the little devils can resist it. [

In Tangshan City, the headquarters of the 39th Division of the Little Devils.

When the head of the little devil's division was still restless, a little devil, a major, with a black face and a dilapidated military uniform, ran in in a very embarrassing situation.

Seeing the stumbling little devil Major, Kawatasue Saburo, head of the little devil's division, trembled, thinking in his heart, could there be any bad news.

Without waiting for Suesaburo Kawada to ask questions, the little devil said in a very miserable way: "Your Excellency, the commander of the division, the two largest positions in the northeast and northwest of our city were hit by napalm bombs from the No. 30 Sixth Army. The more than [-] imperial warriors in the position were all shattered."

After finishing speaking, the little devil, Shao Zuo, had a sad face and lowered his head.

All jade pieces! ! !

Although Suesaburo Kawata had made some mental preparations, he knew that the report from the little devil, Major, would definitely not be good news.However, it turned out that more than 7000 people were all broken.

"Baga! The hateful No.30 Sixth Army!"

Suesaburo Kawada screamed desperately, bleeding from the pain in his heart.

"Order! Gather all the personnel, and I will personally lead the team to launch the jade smashing operation against the No.30 Sixth Army outside the city."

Hearing that more than 7000 people had been beaten to death, the head of the little devil's division immediately became furious, and there was chaos.After issuing such a crazy order, I am ready to fight to the death with the soldiers of the 9th column outside the city.

Upon hearing such an order, the little devil's chief of staff immediately said anxiously: "Your Excellency, division chief. No! What we have left now are basically auxiliary personnel and non-combatant personnel. They are definitely not the opponents of the No.30 Sixth Army."

It seems that the little devil's chief of staff still has a shred of reason.Now.As a large number of little devils were burned to death, the combatants of the 39th Division were basically lost.

This time, the 39th Division accounted for the majority of the little devils who were burned to death by napalm bombs, and the rest were reinforcements from the 71st and 72nd Divisions. Many of them also entered the defensive position to assist the 39th Division. Division defense 9th column.

The remaining members of the 39th Division of the Little Devils are basically auxiliary and non-combatant personnel, and there are only three to four thousand people.

Such a small number of people.How to fight against the well-equipped No.30 Sixth Army outside.

Hearing this, the head of the little devil's division was miserable, and sat down weakly, and the command knife in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang".

a long time.The head of the little devil's division said dumbly: "Order all the troops to withdraw from Tangshan, and report our situation to Tianjin immediately."

"Your Excellency, Commander, do we really want to withdraw?" [

The little devil's chief of staff asked uncertainly.

If the Little Devil's 39th Division withdraws from Tangshan, it will inevitably affect the morale of the 71st and 72nd Divisions that are coming one after another, and.Withdrawing such a big matter from Tangshan has not been reported to the Tianjin side and has been approved by the Tianjin side.

Therefore, the little devil's chief of staff felt a little strange, and asked back with some uncertainty.

The head of the little devil's division smiled miserably, "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, do you have any other good ideas?"

Seeing this question, the little devil's chief of staff was silent in his heart. Indeed, so far, there is no better way. With the two largest positions outside the city being burned to ashes, the last line of defense has been broken.

If you don't retreat, there will only be annihilation of the whole army.

"Order all the troops to retreat and withdraw from Tangshan. I will bear all the responsibilities."

The head of the little devil waved his hand feebly, and said very helplessly.

The little devil's chief of staff silently withdrew from the headquarters, and it seemed that he had issued an order to retreat to the remaining troops.

Just a few minutes after the little devil's chief of staff left, there was an earth-shattering sound of cannons outside the city. Hearing so many cannons, the head of the little devil's division thought to himself, the heavy artillery group of the No. 30 Sixth Army outside the city was again The shelling started, and I don't know how many imperial warriors died under these cannons.

With the sound of cannons outside the city, the head of the little devil's division gradually became numb. Surrounded by a group of little devils, he walked out of the headquarters with a blank face and began to retreat towards Tianjin.

Outside the city, cannons rumbled.

All the cannons of the 9th column fired at the few remaining positions of the little devils' last line of defense. The little devils on these positions suffered heavy casualties in the shelling.

During the half-hour shelling, at least four or five thousand little devils were killed, and at least half of them were the little devils from the 71st and 72nd Divisions who had come to reinforce them.

****************************************

Tianjin.Little Devil North China Front Army Command.

Hisao Nishio, the commander of the little devil, has received a telegram from the 39th Division. He saw that a second-class division with more than 2 people was disabled by the No.30 Sixth Army in one day and one night. Basically, only Some auxiliary and non-combatant personnel.

Looking at the telegram, Hisao Nishio couldn't believe it.

The little devil's chief of staff next to him, seeing Hisao Nishio staring at the telegram in a daze for a long time, couldn't help reminding carefully: "Your Excellency Commander, the matter has come to this, what should we do?"

How to do?What else can I do?

The 39th Division has been disabled, and only a few thousand people are withdrawing from Tangshan. Tangshan must not be able to hold on. Even if the two reinforcement divisions arrive, it will be useless.

Outside Tangshan City, all the defense lines were breached by the No.30 Sixth Army. Without these defense lines, Tangshan had to give up how to defend. [

After thinking for a while, Hisao Nishio immediately issued an order: "Order the 71st and 72nd divisions to retreat, resist the No.30 Sixth Army on the outskirts of Tianjin, and defend Tianjin."

With such an order, it seems that Hisao Nishio is really helpless. Since Tangshan is lost, Tianjin can only be kept.

In the Beijing-Tianjin area, the little devils have been operating for many years, not only stationed about 20 troops, but also built a large number of solid peripheral fortifications, and there are many puppet troops. The little devils can only protect Beiping and Tianjin.

Hearing this, the little devil's chief of staff also looked helpless, and sighed in his heart, the No. 30 Sixth Army is so powerful, and he wonders whether his North China Front Army can withstand the advance of the No. 30 Sixth Army.

Following the order of Hisao Nishio, all the little devils in Tangshan began to retreat towards Tianjin, and the little devils who were marching towards Tangshan also began to retreat.

After receiving such an order, the heads of the 71st and 72nd divisions of the Little Devils felt very aggrieved and uncomfortable. Their divisions came to Tianjin by boat from the mainland of Japan, but they did not arrive in time. Rest was hurriedly sent to reinforce Tangshan.

Forget about these, the most aggrieved and uncomfortable thing for the little devils is that their vanguard troops lost two to three thousand just after they exchanged fire with the No.30 Sixth Army, and now they have received an order to retreat .

What is this called?The head of the little devil's division no longer has the high spirits of the past. Now, the head of the little devil's division has a bitter face.

Not only the head of the little devil division, but also many little devil officers and ordinary little devils also have their heads down and look like they can no longer cheer up.It seems that the failure of the division has had a great impact on the two newly formed divisions, the little devil.

********************************************

At noon, the commander of the 9th column saw that the outer positions of the little devils were all occupied by soldiers, and also received information, and the little devils began to retreat.

Wu Youqing waved his hand and said loudly, "Comrades, everyone is starting to enter the city."

As a large number of soldiers from the 9th Column entered Tangshan, the city, which had been occupied by the little devils for almost three years, was now officially recovered.

In the city, many ordinary people rushed to tell each other, embraced and wept, and many ordinary people set off long strings of firecrackers. The common people blared firecrackers and beat gongs and drums to welcome the soldiers entering the city.

Outside the city, many soldiers from the 10th column also came and were helping the soldiers from the 9th column outside the city, cleaning the battlefield together.

On the open space outside the city, the seized weapons and ammunition were piled up like a mountain.

In the distance, there are huge deep pits filled with densely packed corpses of little devils. These are mass graves, and each big pit contains at least a thousand, or even two or three thousand corpses of little devils. .

Many soldiers of the 10th column were envious when they saw such a great record of the 9th column. They thought to themselves, this time, I have no chance. Next time I have the opportunity, I must kill more little devils .

So far, Tangshan has been completely recovered, echoing Qinhuangdao, and forming a faint siege of Beijing and Tianjin.

在北平郊外，有第6、8两个纵队；在承德有第4纵队；在秦皇岛有第5纵队；在唐山是第9、10两个纵队。在远一点的石家庄，是第1纵队，以及第7纵队的一部分。

These troops have already completed the encirclement of the Beijing-Tianjin area. This is Zhang Yunfei's hard work. More than 20 little devils were surrounded in the areas of Beiping, Tianjin, Baoding and Shijiazhuang.
