Age of Rebirth

Chapter 660 Favorable Situation

In the Battle of Tianjin, less than two hours after the general offensive started, the Northwest Attack Group had already invaded the urban area of ​​Tianjin. Attracted to the east of Tianjin, the improvised armed expatriates are nothing more than a few more scapegoats.

The army had just entered the urban area, Tang Qiuli couldn't bear it any longer, he wanted to enter the city, if he was lucky, he would meet a blind gangster or a traitor, Tang Long's gun could still shoot meat, Hearing his words, Shanhu rolled his eyes and looked at him suspiciously. Tang Qiuli knew something bad was going to happen when he saw him. Shanhu definitely disagreed.

Busily smiled and put his arms around Shanhu's shoulders, and said seductively: "Huzi, think about it, the troops have entered, I, the commander, can't stay away from the battlefield to watch the excitement, I have to command the troops nearby, besides, how long have you been here?" Don't use the guy in your hand? How about we pick some leaks in the back?" It was hard enough for Tang Qiuli, putting his arms around Shanhu's shoulders, just like hugging a hill, it looked awkward.

Shanhu pondered for a moment, several big bosses of the independent division had warned him more than once that they would never let the division commander put himself in danger. If something went wrong, Shanhu used his head to speak, but what Xiaoqiu said made sense, the regular army of the little devil , Almost all of them have been wiped out. Since I took up the job of the division commander and the captain of the security team, how many little devils have been killed, what a loss! [

Tang Qiuli saw Shanhu's heartbeat, so he struck while the iron was hot, and continued to seduce, "Huzi, let's follow behind the third brigade of Dongzhi, and greet their brigade commander Miao Zhengliu in advance, it's okay to keep it!" It was difficult for him to move an inch. Hearing the gunshots that were gradually going away, Shan Hu became anxious. With a wave of his hand, several squadron leaders of the security brigade, who had been eager for a long time, came to his side immediately. Prepare.

The entire security brigade was mobilized, more than 200 people, to protect Tang Qiuli, Mei Ting, and Mei Xue in the middle, and [-] special guard soldiers formed the innermost protection circle. Tang Qiuli said for a while, let alone this formation* He's a soldier, even if he bumps into a small shrimp by chance, he's already turned into a hornet's nest by the soldiers on the periphery, can he still get a shot?Depressed!

Mei Ting and Mei Xue looked at Tang Qiuli, who was beside him with a depressed face, and knew what he was thinking. They glanced at each other and leaned close to him, one left and one right, sandwiching him, with the submachine gun flat on their chests, unexpectedly Tang Qiuli was even more depressed because he was playing the role of a personal bodyguard. If he wanted to make any moves, he had to pass the level of two fragrant bodies first. That's right, no point!

The journey was thrilling, just as Tang Qiuli expected, he didn't see a single soldier, not even a guy who looked like a traitor, Tang Qiuli wanted to scold Miao Zhengliu, the brigade commander of Dongzhi [-]rd Brigade. , This guy is too greedy, his hands are so neat, it is an iron broom, and he doesn't leave any residue. It's broad daylight, and he is already sitting in the office of Ichiro Ono, the former Tianjin garrison commander of the Communist Party of China.

In the city, there were still sporadic gunshots. Yu Guanghan's troops and Tang Qiusheng's troops joined forces in the urban area of ​​Tianjin. Because the northwest attack group was making rapid progress, the Japanese troops in the eastern part of Tianjin were surrounded before they could withdraw to the urban area. Dumplings, what's more, they couldn't withdraw at all. Yu Guanghan's troops clung to each other, completely attacking and attacking. The Japanese commander wanted to carry out Ono's orders. Tangled together, waiting for the fate of destruction.

When Tang Qiuli led the security team into Ono's office, the battle here had long since ended. The soldiers of Dongzhi's [-]rd Brigade were busy cleaning the inside and outside of the building. He stepped on the cannon box and yelled into the phone. It seemed that the Second Regiment had discovered a large arsenal. He was afraid that other troops would snatch the spoils. Miao Zhengliu ordered the armed guards not to move anyone. This is the third brigade. booty.

Seeing Tang Qiuli coming, he quickly put down the phone, trotted over, and stood at attention to salute: "Reporter, the third brigade of Dongzhi is cleaning the battlefield, please give me instructions! Brigade Commander Miao Zhengliu." In the words, there was victory Among the four brigades that participated in the Battle of Tianjin in Dongzhi, Miao Zhengliu's third brigade fought the best, killing the two formed regiments of the Japanese army, and the equipment and supplies seized were also the best. At most, the voice and movement will naturally be louder.

Tang Qiuli returned the salute with a smile. He was not very familiar with the brigade commanders of the East Finger Army. Strictly speaking, they belonged to another system and were directly under the control of Liu Tiehan. Naturally, they had less contact with him, and they were not as good as those directly under the division headquarters. Commanders of the field brigade, he has seen the brave fighting style and skilled individual quality of the third brigade along the way, and he sincerely likes this general who was born in the Northeast Army.

A fierce general will be liked by any commander. Since ancient times, Tang Qiuli is no exception. However, he also whispered in his heart, if I knew you Miao Zhengliu could fight like this, I would not follow your ass. They didn't even get a chance to fire a single shot. In fact, Dongzhi's troops faced off against Japanese troops who were slightly larger than themselves on the front line of Cangzhou for several months. Although there were no major battles, small battles were fought almost every day. In the battle, he was fully tempered.

Liu Tiehan is a principle. In small-scale battles, Dongzhi headquarters will not interfere, but you must take advantage. If you suffer a loss, you will lose troops and lose generals. Sorry, you, the brigade commander, will be replaced, forcing each brigade commander to rack their brains in every battle. The brigades were compared, compared to the number of little devils eliminated, compared to the number of materials seized, which formed a kind of atmosphere in the Dongzhi army. The more the battle was fought, the stronger the army was. The sharp sword is no longer what it was when it was first adapted. Even if Young Marshal Zhang came in person, he would not dare to admit that this is his old army.

Tang Qiuli asked Miao Zhengliu to deal with his own affairs. A few soldiers walked over carrying a stretcher. Tang Qiuli lifted off the white cloth that covered it. There was a corpse of a senior Japanese officer with a long slit in his abdomen. The mouth, the purple intestines were exposed, and the pale face turned out to be a lieutenant general. It must be Lieutenant General Onoichiro Ono, the highest officer of the Japanese Tianjin Garrison. He committed suicide. Tang Qiuli waved his hands to let the soldiers carry him away.

This is the second Japanese lieutenant general who died in his own hands, and the first Japanese lieutenant general who died was also in Tianjin. Could it be that this is the grave of a senior Japanese general?Or coincidence, Tang Qiuli didn't want to do more research. Anyway, the Japanese army who invaded China, whether they were soldiers or generals, deserved to be killed.

The morning sun was rising, and the gushing rays of light shrouded this city on the shore of the Bohai Sea. The gunshots in the urban area had subsided. Since the July [-]th Incident, in less than a year, the economy, industry, and commerce of this North China Tianjin, the military, transportation center, the largest port city in North China, and the largest supply base for the Japanese army in North China, changed hands again and fell into Tang Qiuli's hands.

In this campaign, after 24 hours of fierce fighting, more than 5 Japanese garrison troops in Tianjin and more than [-] Japanese military police troops were wiped out. The army has more than [-] people, and many Japanese military supplies and arsenals have fallen into the hands of the independent division. Speaking of which, this is also due to the five detachments of the special warfare detachment that sneaked into Tianjin in advance, and the two regiments of the quick response brigade with [-] troops. The efforts of the remaining fighters.

The Sulu Mobile Corps contributed to this battle, especially the three brigades led by Yu Guanghan, and an equal number of Japanese troops, fought fiercely for nearly eleven hours, and successfully completed the task assigned by the division commander Tang Qiuli. Mission, the casualties of the troops reached more than [-] people, more than half of the brigade's strength, and more than [-] people were killed in battle, all because at the beginning of the war, the Japanese army's garrison strength in Tianjin was almost completely crushed by Guanghan's troops .

In the Battle of Tianjin, the independent divisions participated in the battle, with a total of more than 1 casualties, of which more than [-] were killed. At this price, they were able to capture the heavily fortified Japanese army with less than [-] casualties. In the city, more than [-] Japanese soldiers were wiped out. Whether it was Tang Qiuli, commanders at all levels of the army, or ordinary soldiers, they all thought this was a huge victory. The various materials in Tianjin alone were worth fighting for this battle.

The smoke of the Tianjin battle has not yet dissipated. Tang Qiuli ordered Zhou Yushan's transport troops to enter Tianjin immediately. It is still the old way. Zhou Yushan is an old hand in the "three light" policy, so there is no need to worry about it. Tianjin has not been completely taken down. He The transport troops have assembled in Bazhou, looking like they are in a hurry to make a fortune.

At present, the situation in North China is extremely favorable to Tang Qiuli. Tianjin is under attack, and there are only two isolated cities around Pingjin, Zhangjiakou and Beiping. As long as Tang Qiuli is willing, he can attack any point. How much more than Tianjin, when the Japanese army attacked Tianjin, the Japanese army in Beiping was more honest than rabbits, which just shows that they are extremely guilty.

Tang Qiu left a telegram to inquire about Tong Batu, who was monitoring the movement of the Kwantung Army on the front line of Shanhaiguan. The mobilization of troops in the Liaoyang area is expected to be completed in five to six days. The purpose is unknown and will be reported after verification. [

Enough is enough. The Kwantung Army assembled its forces to go south to enter the customs and join the Tianjin battlefield. If Tianjin fell, Okamura Ningji would not fail to get news, but he had no intention of returning to Pingjin. He relied on the southward Kwantung Army troops. This old man The devil is determined to spend time in the Taihang Mountains. Well, before the Kwantung Army arrives, I will eat up your 10,000+ troops in Xianxian and Suning.

The situation in North China will definitely be beneficial to him if he solves this heavy group of Japanese troops in North China. On the day when the Battle of Tianjin ended, Tang Qiuli focused his attention on this group of Japanese troops and attacked the troops in Tianjin, leaving a brigade to guard In Tianjin, the remaining eight infantry brigades and six artillery brigades immediately went south to Xianxian County and Suning, and together with the six brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps, which was fighting fiercely with the Japanese army, attacked back and forth to kill the Japanese army.

Tang Qiuli made another move. He wanted to see how Neiji Okamura would react?
