Age of Rebirth

Chapter 520: Zhanwu Township

Since entering the Taihang Mountains to the city of Wuxiang, these small staff officers have fully experienced the donkey temper of His Excellency Chief of Staff Yamaguchi. When something goes wrong, it is drizzle to scold him, and it is commonplace to have a big mouth and fists. Your newcomer Suffering from neurasthenia, especially when sleeping, I hate being disturbed the most.

Look at the sleeping position of your Excellency, it is as sweet as a pig, the staff thinks about it, the fierce eyes of the chief of staff who disturbed his dream, his heart is straight, and his mouth is full of love, but he dare not scream, the Sixth Division over there The commander of the regiment, Nakajima, was also furious. The two regiments he attacked Wuxiang smashed their heads against the iron plate and withdrew, but one regiment was a little more, with thousands of soldiers, fell to the ground in Wuxiang. Under the city, the chief of staff is still in the mood to sleep?Looking at the defense system of the Jin army, this is not a job that the Sixth Division can do.

Yamaguchi was woken up from a good dream. Sure enough, black lines appeared on his face, his eyes were shining fiercely, and his eyes were fixed on the little staff officer. He fumbled under the pillow with his left hand. He didn't know whether he was looking for a gun or a knife. He was finally tired. Relax, you can sleep soundly, but you are disturbed by this idiot, Yamaguchi is so angry!

The poor little staff officer was trembling in his calves. Seeing that the momentum was not right, he quickly shouted: "Report to Your Excellency the Chief of Staff, the commander of the Sixth Division Nakajima Division made an emergency call, the attack on Wuxiang was frustrated! The troops suffered heavy casualties!" [

"Haney?" Yamaguchi's drowsiness was swept away, and his attention was attracted. The little staff officer let out a sigh of relief, and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Shankou, the more he listens, the more livid his face becomes. If he is unlucky, his teeth will be stuffed when he drinks cold water, and his heels will be hit when he farts. In the small Wuxiang County, there are so many Chinese troops and complete fortifications have been built.

Heck, it must have been the good work of Tang Qiuli, the devil of China. He tried his best to hold me back in the Taihang Mountains, and ordered Yan Xishan to mobilize a large number of troops to rush ahead of me, build fortifications, and destroy the vulnerable Wuxiang turned into an insurmountable fortress. Shankou cursed Tang Qiuli bitterly, suddenly became furious, dropped the phone, and shouted at the stunned little staff officer: "Biga! Pig-headed Same, hurry up and prepare the car, I'm going to the front line!"

The little staff officer rushed out as if he had received an amnesty, and with this violent boss, at least he would lose ten years of life. Yamaguchi rushed to the front line of Wu Township, and met the unlucky-looking head of the Sixth Division, Nakajima. I was taken aback by the situation in front of me, Wu Township was completely turned into a fortress, with countless bunkers, bunkers, and fortifications extending to both sides, and the corpses of Japanese soldiers fell in front of the position one by one.

The reason why Wuxiang became like this is due to Yan Xishan. Although he is usually cunning and scheming, he still has a strong concept of protecting his family. When there is no army that can use other people to lead the battle, Going all out and giving a death order, the troops who want to rush to Wuxiang must arrive within three days, transported by car and horse, 14 Jin troops, rushing to Wuxiang within the specified time.

He didn't even catch his breath, and immediately started repairing the fortifications. Yan Xishan himself served as the garrison commander of Wuxiang, and he came to Wuxiang to inspect in person. If he needed anything, he would immediately transport it from Taiyuan. He knew very well that this was a race against the Japanese. He guessed about how many troops Tang Qiuli had in his hands. He thought it would be good to hold off the Japanese for six or seven days, but he never thought that Tang Qiuli had bought him eleven days, and an old man was here to watch him personally. This made Wuxiang's defenses even more perfect.

The old man thought that Tang Qiuli had 10,000 people fighting against the [-]+ troops of the Japanese. It was all for him. Thinking, and feeling angry, I, Yan Xishan, have bet all my family property, not keeping a dime in my hand, it is all caused by the Japanese, Tang Qiuli is also the same, don't leave the Japanese in Taihang Mountain, put them in Jinzhong What are you here for?

Since December [-]th, the city of Wuxiang has never been peaceful again. The Japanese army launched large-scale attacks one after another. On the front line of more than [-] kilometers long, the sound of guns was rumbling and the smoke filled the air. Fierce battles broke out across the board. Soldiers on both sides They were all red-eyed, fighting eye-to-eye like a tsunami, with complete fortifications, and the Jin army was fully prepared, and the Japanese offensive like a tide did not achieve the expected results.

After three days of fierce fighting, the Jin army's Wuxiang defense line did not lose an inch of ground. It was firmly nailed to the south gate of Taiyuan like a nail. The main attacking Japanese army suffered heavy casualties. I can't attack anymore.

If they can't attack, they have to attack. With the death order of Kazuki Kiyoshi in place, Yamaguchi can only bite the bullet and continue to fight. In the end, the exhausted Japanese army had to stop temporarily. There was a problem with their logistics supply, and the transportation line Cut off by Tang Qiuli's troops, they had to retreat five kilometers to rest.

The exhausted Jin army took this opportunity to replenish a large amount of medicine and supplies. Backed by Taiyuan, the supply was more convenient than that of the Japanese army. In view of the serious attrition of the frontline troops, Yan Xishan sent his personal guards, the third independent brigade, to the frontline. The old man spent all his money and was determined to block the Japanese at the last pass out of the Taihang Mountains. The battle situation in Wuxiang was temporarily stalemate here.

Sending away 10,000+ Japanese troops along the way also meant that the Taihang Mountain base area temporarily returned to calm. Tang Qiuli gathered the scattered troops back, reorganized his fists, and prepared for the next stage of combat. During the period, he took time to return to the Huangya Cave.

Mei Ting recovered from her injury at an astonishing speed. With the support of the nurse, she was able to walk a few steps carefully in the ward. Seeing Tang Qiuli's return, she was as excited as a little girl, pestering him to ask questions. Asking this and that, Mei Ting, who is lively and active, was so depressed by this period of recuperation.

Also, his attachment to Tang Qiuli deepened day by day, and he often looked at her husband in ecstasy. After Tang Qiuli's injury healed, a long scar was left on his face. He was very worried about this scar. I always mock myself and say, this time, without a certificate, I can’t enter and exit the passage of Huangya Cave. I look like a villain, a soldier of the guard, why don’t I arrest him?

Mei Ting didn't think so. The scars on her husband's face not only didn't damage his image, but added to his man's charm, giving people a wild and rough feeling. They say that scars are medals on a man's body. My Her husband hung the medal on his face, and she snuggled into Tang Qiuli's arms, gently stroking the scar on his face from time to time, making Tang Qiuli feel itchy in his heart, like several small bugs crawling on his face.

After Mei Ting told her how she felt when she saw the scar on his face, Tang Qiuli couldn't laugh or cry. If you add an eye mask and don't need makeup, the whole image of Pirates of the Caribbean will be appreciated by his wife. I really don't understand what a woman thinks. I only regret that there is no plastic surgery hospital in this era, otherwise, it must be completely repaired. How can the image of Mr. Pianzhuo Shijia be as popular as before?

On the third day of the Wuxiang defensive battle, that is, on December 14th, Tang Qiuli led Ma Chaoyang's brigade and Jiang Yanming's brigade to leave the Huangyadong base area again, and from the southwest, they inserted into the rear of the Japanese army. With Yan Xishan's [-] troops standing in front of him, he pulled the Japanese's hind legs and hit him from time to time. He couldn't kill Shankou, but made him jump around in anger.

He sent Liu Chun's [-]st Cavalry Brigade and Tong Batu's [-]nd Cavalry Brigade out with only one mission, which was to attack the Japanese army's transport troops. From Shijiazhuang to the front line of Wuxiang, the Japanese army's transport line of hundreds of kilometers can be used anywhere and seized. Don't transport the supplies back to Huangyadong, burn them on the spot, and don't let Shankou get a single seed or grain. Bringing them back to Shijiazhuang is the best result.

Tang Qiuli's actions are extremely insidious. The 10,000+ troops on the front line of the mountain pass in Wuxiang have fewer and fewer supplies and medicines, and the rear can't send them up. Now the mountain pass can only organize small-scale attacks. One exception was repelled by the Jin army, which also helped Yan Xishan a lot from the side.

Tang Qiuli led two brigades of troops and quietly approached the rear of the Japanese army. He wiped out the two brigades of the Japanese army at once and burned down a supply base. He almost took his breath away, he understood, this is the lingering Tang Qiuli, staring at him again, the days of being flanked by front and back, is it really a fucking human life? [

After Tang Qiuli succeeded, he led the troops and moved overnight to Guxian, which is more than 80 kilometers away from Wuxiang. The pressure of the frontal battlefield also has the opportunity to find opportunities to wipe out the enemy.

During this period of time, Tang Qiuli was in a very happy mood. Since the start of the war in North China again, he has been passive in every direction since the initial stage, and has been suppressed by the superior forces of the Japanese army in all three directions. The Taihang Mountain base has also sent 10,000+ Japanese troops, and the force has been used to the limit. , It can be said that it is stretched and hard to deal with.

Among them, the most dangerous direction of Dezhou made him sweat. Fortunately, Liu Tiehan Dongzhi's troops withstood the offensive of 30 Japanese troops and stabilized their position. With the arrival of reinforcements, they gradually gained the upper hand. Now, the Japanese troops are retreating. Cangzhou was oppressed by the army and couldn't move. Feng Jiwu of Niangziguan also gained a lot. Not only did he guard the Niangzi like an iron bucket, but he also made a fortune and swallowed more than 6 people in Yan Xishan.

Datong and Wuxiang don't have to worry about it. Yan Xishan has to risk his life to keep his family. The situation in the entire northern battlefield is developing in a direction that is beneficial to him. The southern Songhu battlefield has been completely bankrupt since the Japanese army's Hangzhou Bay landing plan. , Never organized a decent attack again, the old man has hundreds of thousands of troops, guarding there.

Also, his wife's injury was getting better, so Tang Qiuli had a leisurely time. He shot a few hares and came back. He cooked a pot of delicious hare meat and stewed a pot of delicious hare meat with several directors of the division, Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming, have a big meal. These people, when they were in Huangyadong, were already impressed by the master's cooking skills. Now, they finally got their wish, full of praise, and feasted on it.

Tang Qiuli hiccupped, got into the warm bed, and fell asleep satisfied. In the dream, he and his wife were endlessly lingering. A sudden knock on the door woke him up from his dream. His instinctive feeling I realized that something big happened, otherwise, the staff on duty at the division headquarters wouldn't bother me so late.
