Age of Rebirth

Chapter [-] Dismissal

Tang Qiuli was in Zhengzhou and got two good news. The Battle of Taiyuan, which lasted three days, was over. This battle wiped out more than [-] Japanese troops in Taiyuan, and all the Japanese troops in Shanxi were wiped out. In the end, all the mobile forces of the Japanese army in North China were lost. After more than a month, Tang Qiuli thought hard, deployed carefully, took great risks, and finally got the result he wanted. Shanxi was officially assigned to the independent division. territory under control.

This is a battle of strategic significance. Among the three parties competing for Shanxi, Yan Xishan, who was originally deeply rooted, retired sadly, and the remnants of the defeated general lived in Dingbian. In the end, only Tang Qiuli suffered some losses, but compared with what he gained, the losses were insignificant. So far, all the provinces along the Yellow River Basin have been placed under Tang Qiuli's jurisdiction.

Its greatest significance lies in the fact that the Japanese army in North China is already at a disadvantage in terms of total strength. The independent division can extend the battle line to the Pingjin area, and the strategic space has been greatly expanded. The natural resources in Shanxi and the strong industrial foundation laid by Yan Xishan era , for his own use, all areas formed an organic whole, removed the stumbling block of Yan Xishan, wherever the independent division went, military orders and government orders were not smooth, Tang Qiuli had a feeling of pulling out the hard thorn in his throat smoothness.

To this end, Tang Qiuli issued a special commendation order in recognition of the frontline troops in Taiyuan, "I am glad to hear that Taiyuan was conquered and more than [-] Japanese troops were wiped out. So far, the Japanese army's mobile power in North China has been completely lost, and the Taihang Mountain base area has been liberated in World War I." It is of great significance, and I am very relieved, I hereby issue an order to the entire army to reward all the troops on the front line in Taiyuan." [

The two veteran generals, Jiang Baili and Feng Zhian, who received the commendation order, were even more delighted, not because of how brilliantly they fought this battle or because of their superiority. Opportunity, to wipe out Japanese pirates, no reward can replace this, how many times can there be such opportunities in life.

After conveying the commendation order from division commander Tang Qiuli to the entire army, the two returned to the headquarters, kicked out all the staff officers and correspondents, cooked a few delicate dishes, and specially asked the people who had been depressed since Tang Qiuli left. Mei Ting, a widow, had a good time drinking and chatting. During the dinner, I was very moved. Only a talented and general person like the teacher can have such a big hand and create a new situation in North China. We two old guys have the opportunity to lead the army to fight. The highly respected old general praised his beloved man, and his depressed mood became much clearer.

The Taiyuan front-line troops, after three days of rest, returned to the organizational system, divided into two groups, and immediately marched eastward to the Pingjin area. Feng Jiwu led the Niangziguan Garrison Corps and six newly formed field brigades to leave the Pingjin battlefield and pass through the Pingjin corridor , Straight into the front line of Shanhaiguan in the eastern Hebei area, preparing to meet the troops of the Kwantung Army going south by land, the Sun Zhenbang Corps immediately marched eastward.

The chief of staff of the Independent Division, Chang Feng, led the Taihang Mountain Field Corps and Sun Zhenbang's Yellow River Defense Corps, and quickly entered the Pingjin area, forming a trend of encircling Tianjin and Beiping. So far, all the troops of the Independent Division, except Liu Tiehan in Shandong The East Pointing Force, Li Honggang's 29th Corps, and Han Tie's Yellow River Henan Defense Corps, all the troops are concentrated in the Pingjin area. His strategic intentions are obvious, and he is not going to let go of the [-] Japanese troops in Cangzhou. It is possible for the Japanese army to retreat to the north and northeast, and wipe out the last heavy Japanese army group in North China in Cangzhou.

Another piece of good news is that the troops of the Kwantung Army, which had been exhausted from fighting with Tang Qiusheng's regiment, fell into encirclement in Xiongxian, Renqiu, and Hejian after Feng Jiwu's and Changfeng's regiments joined the battlefield. Fighting hard to wipe out this Japanese army, the generals of the Kwantung Army were too arrogant. After being encircled, they neither approached the Japanese army in Cangzhou, nor retreated to the northeast while their back road was not cut off, and fought against the independent army with more than twice their strength. The division's main corps fought hard.

In the minds of the generals of the Kwantung Army's southward troops, all the Chinese troops are like the Northeast Army during the "September [-]th" Incident. It is also talked about by all the officers and soldiers of the Kwantung Army. There is no reason why this kind of glory should not be repeated in North China.

Arrogant and underestimating the enemy, arrogance and arrogance, along the way, Tang Qiusheng's Sulu Mobile Corps and their inextricable struggle did not wake up the Kwantung Army's Southern Corps. After reoccupying Tianjin, only a small number of troops were left to defend the huge Tianjin Wei, throwing all their efforts to Shanxi, these warriors of the Yamato nation took it for granted that wherever the imperial army's flag went, they were invincible and invincible.

After this group of mad dogs left Tianjin, they were stubbornly blocked by the Sulu Mobile Corps in Xiongxian, Renqiu, and Hejian. They were hit with big bags, and they still didn't wake up. They attacked frantically. Such a way of fighting for the troops is what they wish for. Although the blocking troops fight very hard, he is still very happy to do it in the wild, using superior artillery fire and relying on field fortifications to inflict maximum damage on these arrogant little devils.

In the later period, when Chang Feng's Taihang Mountain Field Corps and Feng Jiwu's Niangziguan Garrison Corps had 10,000+ troops, and they were marching towards Xiong County, Renqiu, and Hejian, the commanders of the Kwantung Army's southward troops realized the situation. It's not good, unfortunately, it's already too late, and they can't even evacuate the battlefield. Tang Qiusheng's corps entangled them tightly. Two 10,000+ troops encircled the nearly half of the Kwantung Army troops. There is no big suspense in the battle. Go south The famous Kwantung Army troops finally paid the due price for their arrogance, that is, the entire army was wiped out and they survived.

When Tang Qiuli saw Tang Qiusheng's battle report from the Pingjin front, he was already on the plane to Nanjing. Le Yiqin and Liu Cuigang personally led the team, and 22 fighter jets formed the escort fleet. Tang Qiuli did not expect that Le Yiqin will come up with such a big lineup, which can be described as a super luxurious lineup, so I can't help but blame him for making a fuss out of a molehill.

Ke Le Yiqin doesn't think so, the matter of the teacher's going to Nanjing has been yelled all over the world, the Japanese devils are not deaf, can they not get the news, the aviation team just killed Neiji Okamura, it is difficult to protect the Japanese people If there is no such thing as an ambush in the air, if the teacher has any accidents, even if he and Liu Cuigang have a hundred heads, it will not be enough to chop off, be careful of big mistakes, so, despite the teacher's reprimand, Le Yiqin still follows his plan.

Le Yiqin was flying the fighter plane, not daring to relax in the slightest. He extended the air security range to hundreds of kilometers away. Once a group of Japanese fighter jets was spotted, he would have enough time to cover the division commander's special plane out of danger. Sitting safely, Tang Qiuli, who gently hugged Mei Xue's slender waist, didn't know what Le Yiqin was thinking.

He was thinking about another question. The Japanese Kwantung Army, known as the "Flower of the Imperial Army", was not as elite and brave as it was said in history. It was not even comparable to the Japanese troops on other battlefields in China, because The troops of the Kwantung Army have always been stationed in the Northeast. They have not fought against their opponents for many years, so their combat experience has only been discussed. From top to bottom, they have cultivated an arrogant and arrogant mentality. inevitable.

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain the phenomenon that in August [-], when the Soviet Red Army dispatched troops to the Northeast, it swept across the Northeast where the Kwantung Army had operated for decades in a few days. As soon as I thought of this, the slight fear of the Kwantung Army disappeared, and my determination to regain the Northeast was further strengthened.

The beautiful and verdant Jiangnan land is passing under the wings of the plane. The dotted lakes and puddles reflect the sunlight, like mirrors scattered on the misty and rainy Jiangnan land. The Yangtze River appears in the field of vision like a flowing river of light. He seemed very excited. Since he left his hometown and came to Dingbian, this was the first time he returned to his familiar hometown. The beauty in his memory was instantly activated into moving pictures in his mind.

Mei Xue is like an innocent little girl, with half of her body lying on Tang Qiuli's lap, lying on the side of the aircraft, greedily looking at the scenery under the wings, although Dingbian is a big city, the climate is still not as warm as that of Jiangnan. The round buttocks naturally bent into a beautiful curve. Tang Qiuli couldn't help touching her greedily. The plane suddenly bumped, and Mei Xue fell into Tang Qiuli's arms. For the others, Mei Xue couldn't help but blush, and buried her head in his generous embrace, but Tang Qiuli didn't care, sooner or later they were her own, so why should she be afraid of anything.

The journey was safe and sound. The fleet circled the Nanjing Airport for a week and landed one after another. This formation alone is enough to make the citizens of the Shoushan District talk for days, and make those high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the military and political circles in Nanjing jealous. How much disturbance, how much gossip.

When Tang Qiuli stepped out of the cabin, a large number of reporters who had been waiting for a long time swarmed up and surrounded him. It's different, no senior officials from the state government or important people from the military committee came to greet him, and even Yang Yongtai, who he didn't hate but still liked, didn't show up. Is this a way to show him off, or Chairman Jiang ordered him to deliberately indifference himself.

Before he recovered, a rather capable young reporter in a suit and leather shoes squeezed into the crowd and asked first: "Vice Chairman Tang, I am a reporter from the Nanjing Evening News. I would like to ask you a question. Where were you at that time? Chief Yan Xishan’s troops defended Taiyuan independently, with food and grass inside and reinforcements outside, and when they suffered heavy losses and were forced to abandon Taiyuan, where were your troops? As the highest military officer in the Yellow River Basin Theater, you have great responsibility for the entire territory of Shanxi Fallen, what should be the responsibility? Please give a clear answer!" After asking, the reporter's eyes shone with pride. [
