    Chapter 507 Reason

    The troops were intensively building fortifications on the west bank of the tributary of the Qingzhang River. With such terrain conditions, the only barrier they could rely on was the small river that had been covered with a thick layer of ice. It was hoped that the ice as smooth as a mirror would allow the attacking Japanese troops to  , slow down and give the troops more time to counterattack.

    Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming looked back and forth worriedly. They were not afraid of the battle, but were afraid that after the battle started, other nearby Japanese troops would quickly surround them. The division commander was blinded by hatred, and they could not change the division commander's decision.  We can do our best to reduce the losses of the troops.

    The troops of the **Division were busy building fortifications, and the Japanese army was not idle either. They were holding a military meeting. All because of a word from the Japanese spy Xu Fu. He reported to the Japanese division commander that the person in front of him was Tang Qiuli, the commander of the **Division.  Commanding the troops, he heard the voices of the Chinese soldiers calling division commander. In the Taihang Mountains, the person who was called division commander must be Tang Qiuli, and there was no other squadron.

    The Japanese division commander was surprised and delighted. What surprised him was that the enemy of the imperial army, the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, was right in front of him. Could he attack his division?  Fortunately, after going deep into the hinterland of the Taihang Mountains for many days, no trace of the ** division troops was captured. Tang Qiuli suddenly jumped out. This was a golden opportunity.

    He asked Matsushita in detail about the battle in Sucheng, with half of his ear missing and the bandage loose. He had always had a doubt. Judging from the fact that Matsushita's regiment had lost more than half of its troops, could it be that those who attacked them were just  There were less than 2,000 people before, and more than 10,000 troops later, and that was it?

    Why did Tang Qiuli not only not retreat in the face of one of his main divisions, but instead build fortifications on the spot, as if he wanted to fight a decisive battle with him? With Tang Qiuli's illustrious reputation, could he make such a low-level mistake? No, no.  , there must be a conspiracy. There are very few imperial troops in North China who have not suffered losses from Tang Qiuli. Maybe Panasonic can avoid the jade being broken, which is also part of the conspiracy.

    Tang Qiuli should have attracted him to take the initiative to attack, and then he mobilized other troops to surround the entire division here. The more the Japanese division commander speculated, the more he felt that things were not that simple. The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, the Japanese army in North China  , was frightened by Tang Qiuli. He held tens of thousands of troops and was far more powerful than his opponents, but he did not dare to initiate an attack. Instead, he adopted a wait-and-see attitude. This was rare in the history of Japanese division-level operations.  move.

    At the meeting, the Japanese division commander made careful arrangements. There was only one principle. Each brigade and regiment should defend on the spot and no offensive actions should be taken to attract the Japanese division troops as the ultimate operational goal. After the meeting,  He immediately reported this situation to Chief of Staff Yamaguchi, who was commanding the operation.

    Yamaguchi was overjoyed when he heard the news. He fished out nets and nets, but he was empty-handed and found nothing. He consumed a lot of military supplies, tired out the imperial soldiers, burned countless houses, and did not fight a single battle. If this continues, I really don¡¯t know how to pay tribute to him.  Commander Xiangyue explained.

    Yamaguchi is so worried. He doesn't think about food and food. His head, which was already plucked, has few hairs left and looks more like a big gourd. Good news came from the direction of Qinquan, and it was an army commanded by the Chinese devil himself. He successively  Many days of bad luck were swept away, and several orders were issued one after another. All the troops sweeping the Taihang Mountains immediately moved closer to Qinquan to participate in the Taihang Mountains Battle.

    He and the Japanese division commander basically agreed that behind Tang Qiuli, his main force was hidden, and the purpose was to eat a division of the imperial army. Well, use this division as bait to lure Tang Qiuli away.  Catch it, and then gather all the troops for a decisive battle. Yamaguchi is sure that the ** division troops in Taihang Mountain do not have many troops.

    After receiving the order, the Japanese troops immediately changed their marching direction, abandoned their original attack target, and moved closer to Qinquan. They thanked the Japanese division commander for his caution and insisted that this was Tang Qiuli's conspiracy.  Shivering in fear and taking the defensive position, Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming had time to calmly prepare and wait until dark. If it were other squadrons, the Japanese army would have already launched a fierce bombardment, and the infantry would swarm over to kill them.

    At night, with the Ma Chaoyang Department of the ** 2nd Brigade as the forward attacking force and the Jiang Yanming Department of Huangyadong Guard Brigade as the second echelon, after a short period of artillery preparation, they launched a fierce attack on the Japanese troops in front of them. With the slightest contact, the Japanese troops  That is to say, they abandoned their position and retreated. Later, the Japanese second line of defense was also attacked. Both sides suffered damage to each other. The Japanese army continued to retreat and the position changed hands.

    The smoother the battle went, the more chilled Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming became. The Japanese army in a division couldn't help but fight, right?  When they retreated, they did not panic, but adopted a step-by-step approach. The direction of retreat was due east of Qinquan, which was the starting direction of the Japanese army's attack on the Taihang Mountains. The Japanese army was deliberately tempting us to pursue in depth.

    The situation is not good. The two of them discussed it and took out three battalions of patients from the attacking force and sent them to forty hospitals on both sides of the force.The Japanese division's troops were on guard for 50 kilometers in front and behind them. The more fierce the attack, the more convinced the Japanese division commander was in his judgment, and the retreat became more comfortable. He continued to receive reports that the Chinese army was catching up.  The boy bit the hook.

    After fierce fighting all the way, the troops had pursued for more than 30 kilometers, and very few Japanese troops were wiped out. In the light of the explosion, Ma Chaoyang was shocked to find that the division commander was rushing in front of the troops, followed by only seven or eight guards, and tracer bullets were flying around him.  From time to time there were plumes of smoke from explosions, blocking Ma Chaoyang's sight, and his heart tightened.

    At this time, Tang Qiuli had already entered - < Piao Tian Literary registered members recommended this work > - and saw the Japanese soldiers falling down like wooden piles under the fire of Tang Long Gun. There was a kind of joyful madness in his heart.  The pain was relieved with the joyful flying bullets. He caught a Japanese second lieutenant and put the muzzle of his gun on the Japanese second lieutenant's head. "Tell me, in which direction is the Panasonic Regiment?"

    This guy looked at Tang Qiuli dumbfounded, with an expression of dementia on his face. How could a young lieutenant know the retreat sequence of the troops? Tang Qiuli pulled the trigger and poured a bunch of bullets into his head. He was captured.  Six or seven Japanese soldiers, none of whom knew the specific location of the Panasonic Regiment, were all shot in the head by Tang Qiuli.

    Tang Qiuli rushed wherever the gunshots were the loudest. The guards following him did not dare to dissuade him. Even the captain was forced by the division commander with a gun and rushed to the side. He could only try his best to cover him.  Three people were injured, one of whom was seriously injured. If it were not for their duties, they would not have suffered any damage in such a battle.

    Ma Chaoyang quickly sent his guard battalion over and ordered the battalion commander to take extraordinary measures to escort the division commander back to the headquarters. If the division commander shoots you, I will posthumously recognize you as a martyr. Remember, any one of us can lose his head.  The teacher can't even hurt a hair on his head.

    Watching the soldiers from the guard camp leaving, Ma Chaoyang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, God, why did he rush to the front, where was Captain Huang?  If the division commander had any evil intentions, how could he explain it to hundreds of thousands of soldiers? The old brigade commander would not have shot him. He was too aware of the deep feelings between Su Jingfeng and the division commander.

    After pursuing for more than ten kilometers, the Japanese army refused to retreat. The brigade closest to them came closer. The two Japanese armies joined together, with a strength of more than 40,000 people. They held hands and formed a solid line of defense. They used light and heavy machine guns.  The fighting was as fierce as a violent wind, and in the night, the bullets were as dense as locusts, weaving into a web of death, and the troops were unable to attack.

    When the Brigade Jian Dao Battalion withdrew, only the battalion commander, covered in blood and with a thick bandage on his head, came with less than 300 scarred soldiers to report to the brigade commander. The battalion commander looked ashamed.  I was on a mission, specifically looking for the location of the Panasonic Alliance, but I couldn't find it after searching all the way.

    During the last attack, the defensive firepower of the Japanese army suddenly more than doubled, and he had to withdraw. Ma Chaoyang did not mean to blame him at all, and ordered him to rest quickly in the back, and handed over the task to other battalions, watching.  The soldier covered with scars staggered back, and Ma Chaoyang's heart ached violently.

    This is one of his main battalions, with more than 700 people. They have never suffered such heavy losses. They have made meritorious service in previous battles. The tip of the sword has been broken, and it is useless to fight anymore. He ordered the troops to defend on the spot.

    Then, he ran to the headquarters in a hurry, trying to persuade the division commander to withdraw from the battle immediately. The situation was not good. The Japanese army suddenly stopped retreating and their firepower increased greatly. It could only be one situation. Their reinforcements had arrived.  And other reinforcements are encircling here. If they don't break away from the battle, they will be surrounded by the Japanese.

    Halfway through, I met Jiang Yanming who had the same idea. In his brigade headquarters, he received even more ominous news. The troops on guard on both wings reported that a large number of Japanese troops were concentrating in the direction of Qinquan from the north and south. It was expected that  Four hours later, we can arrive here, and they are closely monitoring the actions of the Japanese army.

    News was also reported from the rear that no Japanese troops were found within fifty kilometers. This made them relieved. The Japanese troops had not attacked too deeply. Otherwise, they would have been taken back.

    Tang Qiuli saw the two of them and angrily asked: "Why did you stop the attack? Where is Matsushita Qingyi? Where is Xu Fu? Have you found the position of Matsushita United? How many people died, are you scared? Okay, you give up."  As for the position of brigade commander, I will command the troops." The barrage of questions left the two brigade commanders unable to answer. The division commanders did not yet know the danger of the situation. The troops were about to be surrounded by a large number of Japanese troops. Can they successfully escape from the battle?  They are all unknowns.

    The people in the headquarters looked at each other in shock. They had changed. The division commander had changed and became like a stranger. He had never seen him speak to his subordinates like this before. His words were sharp and arrogant, and every word was heartbreaking. Chief of Staff Yu Guanghan, Investigation Department Chief  Chief Shen Jun, Director of Intelligence Department Yu ?After a while, they looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly. There was an unbearable silence, except for Tang Qiuli's angry roar.

    Shanhu, covered in gunpowder smoke, knows the root cause of Tang Qiuli's changes best. At this time, only one person can dissuade him, and that is Mei Ting. In the past, when he was in the Northeast, whenever Xiaoqiu lost his mind, it was  Xiaoling came to persuade him, and he walked quietly to Mei Ting.
