Glorious Mission 1937

() Whether mentally or not, the heavy artillery unit of the Japanese army entered Zhangjiakou City without the protection of ground troops. This undoubtedly gave Chen Feng a huge opportunity.The bastard who entered the urn will end up as a dish on people's tables, and the Japanese Army's Fourth Field Heavy Artillery Brigade is the same. Half an hour later, more than [-] people including the brigade commander, Lieutenant General Ueda Tsubasa, , except for a small number of fanatics who were killed, all of them became Chen Feng's captives.

However, after interrogating the prisoners, Chen Feng got a piece of news that he didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow. The ground protection troops of the Japanese Field Heavy Artillery Brigade were not one regiment, but two.Now the two infantry regiments are driving along the road from Beiping to Zhangjiakou by car, and they will reach Zhangjiakou in an hour at most.

The troop casualties were not great, but they couldn't stand the rapid march for several days, and the soldiers were mainly mentally exhausted.After two nights of long-distance raids, and today's one-night battle, all the soldiers are already exhausted. If it is one wing, it is okay, but if it is two wings, it is really not easy to pack.The casualties of the troops that wiped out the Japanese army defending the city and the half of the brigade that took the train were actually very limited. Although the casualties of the various troops have not yet been counted, Chen Feng judged that there should not be more than 100 people.

But so far, we have to stick to it no matter what, isn't it just two regiments, the troops have even killed the heavy artillery unit, are we still afraid of these two infantry regiments without heavy weapon support, besides, there are three regiments in Zhangjiakou City. With a brigade plus a guard regiment, the total strength is nearly ten times that of the Japanese army.If you don't eat the meat delivered to your door, you will be punished by God.

At 08:30 in the morning, a huge convoy suddenly appeared in the south of Zhangjiakou City, and the soldiers guarding the city immediately reported to Chen Feng.

After receiving the report, Chen Feng immediately took Ma Cao and others to meet the Japanese army outside the city. When he arrived at the gate of the city, Chen Feng saw an endless convoy approaching Zhangjiakou City rapidly, and the dust that was rolled up was ten miles away. I can also see clearly.

"Is everything ready?" Chen Feng whispered to Wang Hansheng and others beside him.

"Don't worry about the military seat, everything is ready. As long as the little devils dare to enter the city, make sure they can't get out. Two brigades plus a Jingwei regiment have already set up pocket formations around them. All the commanding heights are controlled by us. In the hands. Once the fight starts, it will take at most an hour to resolve the battle." Wang Hansheng replied.

"That's good! Ma Cao and I will go down first, you all go get ready!" Chen Feng said.

Seeing Chen Feng and others at the gate of the city, the commander of the Japanese military convoy, Ozawa Kumano, ordered the convoy to stop at a distance of more than 20 meters from Chen Feng and others, and then quickly got out of the vehicle with a few officers and walked over.

He saw Chen Feng wearing the military uniform of the commander.Ozawa Kumano said coldly: "We belong to the [-]th Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Kwantung Army. I am Ozawa Kumano. Your Excellency, the brigade commander, should have arrived?"

"Welcome to Ozawa-kun. His Excellency, Lieutenant General Matsuda, has entered the city for two hours and is currently resting at the Gendarmerie Command. Due to the limited space in the city, there is no parking lot that can accommodate so many vehicles, so I hope that Mr. Ozawa will order Your convoy is parked outside the city, and the troops are going into the city to rest and eat. Besides, Your Excellency the General is waiting for you at the Gendarmerie Headquarters, please follow me!" Chen Feng said.

Ozawa Kumano also knew that there was no parking space for more than 300 cars in the city of China, so he readily agreed to Chen Feng's proposal.

Using the same reason as the Japanese army at the railway station, Chen Feng ordered a battalion of troops to quickly surround the entire parking lot, in the pretense that it was to take care of the weapons and equipment of the Fourth Brigade, which came from afar, so that all soldiers could You can have hot meals in no time.

After the main officers of these two regiments followed in the footsteps of their brigade commanders, the entire infantry of the two regiments also entered the pocket formations set up by Chen Feng's troops.Following Wang Hansheng's order, the doors and windows of the shops on both sides of the street suddenly opened wide, revealing the black muzzles of the guns, and the machine gun positions on the roofs of the residential buildings were also removed from their camouflage. Army soldier pulled the trigger

The battle was not as smooth as Wang Hansheng expected. Although they lost the command of senior officers, the infantry of these two regiments fought bravely and would rather die than surrender. They were two extremes with the more than 3000 Japanese troops captured before.The battle lasted until 10:30 in the morning, and the 61st Army finally wiped out these two regiments. Of the more than 400 Japanese troops, there were only less than 61 prisoners, and all the others were killed.However, the [-]st Army launched a sudden attack on the premise of taking advantage of the right time, place, people and other factors. The final result was still to wipe out the field heavy artillery brigade at the cost of more than [-] casualties. Let Chen Feng have a new understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese Army's field artillery unit.

Just as Chen Feng performed the "Please enter the urn" in Zhangjiakou to beat up the Japanese Army's Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, the 222nd Division as far away as Jining also followed Chen Feng's instructions and began to implement the unique skill of luring the enemy deep, preparing to attack the Japanese Army's Fourth Division Let's do it.

Faced with the huge number of Japanese and puppet troops, Li Yifeng decided to adopt a strategy of blocking the advance of the Japanese army with small troops and killing a large number of the active forces of the Japanese army, so as to anger the main force of the Japanese army, and then let the fourth division of the Japanese army go deep .At the same time, Li Yifeng secretly arranged the main force of the 222nd Division on the mountain road along the Japanese army. After all the main forces of the Fourth Division entered this big pocket, the whole army immediately launched an attack, so that the Japanese army did not know that they were going to die in a panic. How many people, even if the Japanese army cannot be completely wiped out, there is still no problem in defeating the Japanese puppet army.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and no matter how good the plan is, it can't keep up with the changes.After being blocked many times by the small units of the 222nd Division, in view of the heavy casualties of the troops, the Eighth Regiment, which was the vanguard of the Fourth Division, decisively chose to stop advancing, and then quickly returned to Li Yifeng and others with stunned expressions. After arriving in Zhuozi County, the complexions of all the senior leaders of the 222 Division who had been preparing for several days suddenly turned livid, as if they had been trampled by tens of thousands of mud horses overnight.

It's not a day or two to deal with little devils, but Li Yifeng and others have never seen such a speechless Japanese army.In the past, the harder you beat those Japanese troops, the crazier they will be and the more they will fight you to death.But this 222th Division doesn't seem to have this habit. The Bushido spirit believed by other units of the Japanese Army doesn't seem to exist here. Whenever they encounter the slightest setback, they decisively choose to retreat, which makes the [-] Division who are not familiar with their fighting methods all The officers and soldiers were unexpected, and even Liu Yifei and others once thought their ambush plan had been leaked.

After the news reached Zhangjiakou, Chen Feng also smiled wryly, this Fourth Division is really unreliable, it doesn't play cards according to common sense at all.However, Chen Feng, who knew the history of the Fourth Division, would not lose his composure like Li Yifeng and others, and retreating before the battle was just the usual style of this army.It is not a question of the combat plan of the 222nd Division.

The Fourth Division is notoriously unreliable in the battle order of the Japanese army.This can be seen from their parting language which is different from other troops.Although the 1th Division may be weak, it is a Category A division after all, with many veterans.Due to the heavy combat losses of the Japanese army, it is urgent to replenish veterans.From time to time, officers and soldiers of the Fourth Division were transferred to other divisions.then. The farewell speeches of each division of the Japanese Army have their own characteristics.For example, the Second Division, when the battle situation is good, they say "martial luck is long"; when the situation is not good, they say "Judanzaka see" (Note [-]).However, when the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Division bid farewell, they often said "to protect the body and cut everything".Translated, it means "preserve your body", "body first", or simply "life is the most important thing".

Today, this incident may seem normal to the soldiers of the Fourth Division. You must know that even two years later, the Fourth Division is still such a bird. In 1939, a war broke out between the Soviet Union and Japan in the Nomenkan area on the Sino-Mongolian border. The Kwantung Army ordered the two divisions stationed in Osaka and Sendai in the northern part of the puppet Manchukuo to mobilize urgently to reinforce the front line.After receiving the order, the Sendai Division (that is, the Second Division) marched from Hailar to Nuomenkan in 4 days. They went into battle on the day they arrived at the battlefield, but they were quickly defeated by the Soviet army.On the contrary, although the dispatch order of the Fourth Division was issued, it has not moved.The reason is that after the mobilization order was issued, the number of patients with diseases in the division increased sharply. Looking around, the camp was full of officers and soldiers who were required to stay behind for various reasons.The excited Japanese army leader was furious, and personally sat in the infirmary to participate in the diagnosis. Only then did he barely organize the troops to march to the front line. The joke of "the alliance leader changed his career to become a doctor" was spread among the Japanese army.

However, the matter was not over, and the soldiers of the Fourth Division played a new trick-passive sabotage.From Hailar to Nuomenkan, the second division walked for 4 days, but the fourth division walked for 8 days, and a large number of people were left behind.Coincidentally, on the day the advance team of the [-]th Division arrived at the front line, Suri announced a truce.When the news came, the officers and soldiers of the [-]th Division who were left behind quickly followed up as if they had taken a powerful pill. Even many officers and soldiers who stayed behind rushed to the front line with "sickness", complaining in great frustration that they had no chance to fight a battle.

The irony is that on the return trip, the Fourth Division, fully loaded and full of energy, became the most powerful unit in the Japanese army, while the Second Division, which rushed to the battlefield first, lost its armor and disarmed. The battalion was full of wounded soldiers.The officer in charge of news and propaganda of the Kwantung Army really couldn't see it, so he picked up a pen and changed the headline of the news "My Invincible Imperial Army's Fourth Division Returns with Power" submitted by the Japanese Army newspaper for censorship to "My Invincible Imperial Army" The Return of the Fourth Division's power and influence", obliquely mocking this "soft" army.

Just like this time, despite all the foolishness, the Fourth Division was quite lucky.This time, if the 222th Regiment hadn't retreated before the battle, and then quickly retreated to Zhuozi County, Chen Feng could imagine that under the pressure of the main force of the [-]nd Division, there would still be a few people left in the [-]th Division, and the entire army might be wiped out of.But no matter what, this unreliable Fourth Division once again avoided a catastrophe by relying on their unreliable style, which also made Chen Feng, a Chinese general, look at this Japanese army with admiration.

(Note 1: "See you at Kuduanzaka" is the most common phrase used by soldiers of the Japanese army when they parted. Because the Yasukuni Shrine is in Kudanzaka, Tokyo, this sentence means seeing you at the Yasukuni Shrine, to show that death is as good as home.) (To be continued. .)
