Glorious Mission 1937

As an officer with rich combat experience, Chen Youliang knew the reason for the heavy casualties of the Third Special Mixed Brigade, and said: "Brigade, this has little to do with tactics. Our soldiers are all composed of local garrison regiments. Although they Most of them have received military training for half a year to a year, but half of these people do farm work in their own fields. It can be said that they are half-agricultural and half-soldier, and they are not considered regular troops. It's beyond my expectation, those who can survive this battle will be truly qualified soldiers, and they won't be much worse than our veterans by then, but now they still can't do it!"

"I know this. The low quality of soldiers is the main reason for the high casualties, but another reason is that there is a problem with our tactical arrangements. The outbreak of this battle was a bit sudden, and it was triggered by an encounter in a rescue operation. Large-scale battle, now our rescue mission has been completed, so there is no need for us to spend time with the Japanese army in this small town. It is too close to the lower garden where the Japanese army is stationed, which is not good for our army. Our advantage is firepower Strong, the disadvantage is that the quality of the soldiers is not high, and the force is limited. It will take a day for the follow-up troops of the group army to be ready, so we must make use of our strengths and avoid weaknesses. Before the main force of the group army arrives, we can neither let the Japanese army eat us, nor let the army The casualties are too great, so the current passive situation must be changed!" Liu Li said.

Chen Youliang nodded and said, "Then what is the passenger going to do?"

"Lure the enemy to go deep, and block them every step of the way!" Liu Li said.

"Brigade means that we retreat while fighting, taking advantage of the terrain and powerful firepower to kill and injure the little devil's vital force?" Chen Youliang said.

"Exactly. The number of automatic firepower equipment in our army far exceeds that of the Japanese army, and we also have dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns. As long as we choose a blocking position, it is enough to make a kid drink a pot!" Liu Li smiled. Said like a flower.

"Okay, then do it!"

"Staff Li, pass on my order: the first regiment immediately withdraws from the battle, and then builds a blocking position in the rear of our army. An hour later, the brigade headquarters, the second regiment, and the artillery battalion will alternately cover and retreat, and the guard battalion will be in the rear."

"Yes!"

Soon, the news of the Chinese army's retreat reached the Japanese front enemy headquarters.Lieutenant General Suematsu Shigeka thought that his tactics of flanking left and right had been known to the Chinese.Therefore, all the troops in Gujiaying Town were ordered to press up immediately, and no matter what, they must hold back the Chinese army in front to buy time for the troops on the left and right flanks.

After receiving the order, Major General Akiyama Kosaburo, the supreme commander of Gujiaying Town, did not dare to neglect.Immediately command the troops and horses of the post to launch a countercharge against the Chinese troops in Gujiaying Town.Attempt to hold back the Special Mixed Third Brigade.

However, the Special Mixed Third Brigade retreated very simply.The Japanese army was not given any chance to procrastinate. When the Japanese army units rushed to the position of the third special brigade in Gujiaying Town, there were only empty and simple positions left, and nothing was left behind.

"Baga. Chase, quickly!" Major General Akiyama Kosaburo roared angrily.

"Hay!"

As Liu Li expected, the Japanese army caught up.Just received a report from Li Heshan, head of the 4st Regiment of the [-]rd Special Mixed Brigade, that they have built [-] blocking positions along the way. Each position has an infantry company and a temporary machine gun company. It is conservatively estimated that each blocking position can block The Japanese army lasted for more than an hour.

After receiving Li Heshan's telegram, Liu Li was overjoyed, and ordered the guard battalion at the back to slow down their retreat, so as to stimulate the little devil behind him, so that that dog Qiushan would not lose his patience.

To be honest, Chen Feng did not expect a fight so soon in the direction of Zhangjiakou, and of course it also exceeded the expectations of the senior management of the 52nd Army Group. This battle was originally going to be fought, but the troops have not assembled yet, so rash actions can be dangerous. Not Xu Hu's style.But Xu Hu also knew that this was just an accident. If he wasn't ready, the Japanese army might not be ready either. Since everyone wasn't ready, let's prepare during the battle.

So Xu Hu ordered the troops to actively march towards Xuanhua, and at the same time sent a report to Chen Feng, requesting the Second Army to launch an attack on the Japanese army in advance, disrupting the Japanese army's defensive deployment.

Knowing that the garrison of Xiahuayuan had been replaced by the 114th Division, Chen Feng was a little surprised. Before that, the garrison of Xiahuayuan had always been changed from the Chinese garrison to the Shanxia Division. Yamashita Fengwen, known as the "Malay Tiger", did not expect the Japanese army to change the defenders and generals.

The 114th Division is not very good. According to historical records, this division should have been withdrawn in August of this year. Unexpectedly, it is still active in the Chinese battlefield. It is also fate to meet this Japanese army.

Chen Feng immediately called Xu Hu back and appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the Pingjin battlefield, in charge of the battle in the direction of Pingjin. Although the Pingjin battlefield was only an auxiliary battlefield for the entire battlefield, and the main task of the 52nd Army was also a feint attack, Chen Feng did not do anything for Xu Hu. Restrictions, he told Xu Hu clearly that if the 52nd Army can take down Peiping or Tianjin, he has no problem.In other words, tell Xu Hu that you can toss as much as you want, as long as you have the ability, even if you kick Bin Shanyuan's head as a ball.

But Chen Feng has one condition, that is, to kill the 114th Division no matter what, if not, then kill Tokushige Numata, the deputy commander of the 114th Division. This is a rigid order, and the 52nd Army must complete it.

The reason why Chen Feng issued such a weird order was entirely because of one person, that is Lieutenant General Tokushige Numata mentioned just now. The reason why Chen Feng knew this bastard was entirely because he had read a book introducing the death in China. The book of the generals of the Japanese Invaders - "The Pillar of Shame of History - The Complete Record of the Killing of 171 Generals of the Japanese Invaders", in which this bastard is specially introduced.

The most famous Japanese military officer in China in history is of course Norihide Abe, the Japanese lieutenant general who was killed by the Eighth Route Army on the Loess Plateau.But in fact, the first lieutenant general officer to be killed was not Norihide Abe, but Shigetoku Numata, who was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general in March 1939.

Compared with Shigetoku Numata, Norihide Abe is not the highest-ranking person at all, his position is that of a brigade commander, and his military rank is that of a lieutenant general.Numata Tokushige was already a lieutenant general in March 1939, and his rank was higher than that of Norihide Abe. However, his death did not make it into the ranking of the results of the battle, and even many history books did not include him. It seems that historians deliberately forgot.But even if such a person is covered up, it is impossible that there is no record at all, just like Chen Feng, he knows this bastard.

历史上，沼田德重是在1937年11月8日随军在金山卫登陆，入列第10军参加淞沪会战，11月25日攻占长兴，12月攻打南京担任南路，是“南京大屠杀”凶犯之一；1938年2月转隶华北方面军，5月徐州会战参加北路围攻。1939年3月晋升为陆军中将，同时被擢升为任华北方面军No.12军第114师团师团长。先后驻扎在济南、兖州等地。

In June of the same year, after the end of the Lunan campaign, Numata Tokushige aimed his "mopping up" at the troops of the Luxi Military Region of the Eighth Route Army in an attempt to eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the area and expand the so-called "security area" of the Japanese army to consolidate the so-called victory. . On June 6, 1939, the Japanese army began a large-scale "mopping up" from south to west.

Yang Yong, commander and political commissar of the Luxi Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, commanded the first, second, third and sixth regiments, the Taixi Army Division, and the Yunxi Army Division to deal with the Japanese army and launch a comprehensive anti-"mopping up" operation.Therefore, Numata Tokushige's big "sweep" not only failed to achieve obvious results, but was also attacked and ambushed by troops of the Luxi Eighth Route Military Region many times, causing heavy casualties.

In mid-July 1939, the 7th Division was transferred to Japan for rest and reorganization. The Japanese army was forced to stop "mopping up", and the divisions began to retreat one after another. On July 114, when Tokushige Numata led the 7th Division to retreat from Liaocheng to the east, it was ambushed again, causing more than 16 casualties.The head of the division, Numata Tokushige, was also shot several times in the chest and abdomen. His life was in critical condition and he was sent to the hospital immediately for emergency treatment. On August 114, he finally died in Jinan due to ineffective rescue. Tokushige Numata became a Japanese lieutenant general who received an order to return home but failed to make the return journey.

The reason why Chen Feng named Shigetoku Numata to take the head was not because he was a lieutenant general in the Japanese army, but because this bastard was a heinous war demon, and his hands were stained with the blood of the Chinese people.This bastard regards the weak invaded nation as something that can be bullied and killed at will. Not only does he fight cruelly, but he also plays with 1 to 3 virgins every day.He raped thousands of young girls in China, and wrote 18 diaries throughout his life, specifically recording his process and experience of playing with women in detail.Almost all the women who were raped by him were killed indiscriminately by him with various cruel means.At the same time, he was also bitten by some girls who would rather die than surrender, so that his facial features were incomplete and his six roots were mutilated.

Every time he invaded a place, finding and snatching young and beautiful virgins for him became an important task for his staff and guards.Tokushige Numata, who was dying in the Japanese military hospital in Jinan, wrote in his diary in the last few days of his life: "God created so many races of skin color, so many ethnic groups, so many beauties, and I was 40. The women I enjoy in the middle of the year are only of the yellow race! How I hope that the Japanese army can go north and start a war against the Soviet Union; go south to the Pacific and start a war against the United States, Britain, and Holland, then I will have the opportunity to enjoy white beauties , black beauties, and brown beauties." He also had the sinful dream of playing with 70 women by the age of 1.

Such a bastard, it's fine if Chen Feng doesn't know it, if he knows it, he can't let him go.Besides, Chen Feng took a look at it just now. This bastard's ranking in the system's ranking of Japanese generals is not low, a full 4200 points, more than 2000 points higher than the average Japanese lieutenant general, equivalent to five ordinary Japanese army major generals. In Chen Feng's eyes Numata Shigetoku is a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered, and he cannot be allowed to return to Japan alive no matter what. (To be continued..)
