    Chapter 568: Xiangtangpu Ambush (1)

    Tang Qiuquan, captain of the Special Warfare Detachment of the ** Division, suddenly returned after losing contact with the division for more than five months. Tang Qiuli was overjoyed. Tang Qiusheng heard that his cousin was back and hurried over. He was careful  Mei Ting had already arranged for the cooking team to prepare delicious meals for the soldiers returning from afar.

    She also specially asked the cooking team to add some dishes so that the Tang brothers and Shan Hu could have a good talk. Tang Qiuli was quite satisfied with his wife's arrangement. Mei Ting was busy preparing the food. During the meal,  , Shanhu was full of curiosity about Qiuquan's journey of thousands of miles, and kept asking, how did you find this place?

    After Qiuquan and the others killed the Japanese special forces who were pursuing them in the dense forest of Tongjiang, they concealed their whereabouts, turned around and headed west, heading straight towards Qiqihar, leaving behind two regiments of Japanese troops in the large forest of Tongjiang.  Searching for anti-Japanese elements all over the world, they blew up a Japanese army's baggage transfer station near Qiqihar Lindian.

    Then, continue westward, enter the eastern Mongolian region, cross the Mongolian Plateau, go south from the Qingshui River area, cross the Great Wall, cross the Yellow River from Pianguan, and enter Shanxi Province. Follow the sound of cannons all the way, and I will meet you. No.  But Shan Hu, Tang Qiuli and Tang Qiusheng were also dazzled. How long is this route?

    Shan Hu sighed and said: "Brother Qiuquan, you have gone through the old road this time, and the soles of your feet are worn thin, right?" Qiuquan smiled, it was not as hard as you said, before entering the eastern Mongolia region  Previously, we took over one of the Japs' military depots and got a dozen cars, ammunition and supplies. We rode in the cars all the way, ate canned Japanese beef, and received good hospitality along the way. Do you think it was hard?

    Shan Hu had a look of disbelief. He was just driving away in a car so arrogantly?  In 1938, the Japanese army had just expanded its power to the Mongolian Plateau. The Japanese base camp at that time focused its attention on North China and Songhu areas, and its troops were concentrated in these two directions. The people who maintained local security were  Most of the local forces supported by the Japanese were raped.

    Qiuquan and the others were wearing Japanese military uniforms and riding in Japanese cars. In addition, almost every soldier could speak a few words of Japanese, and more than a hundred of them were quite fluent in Japanese. They looked like a Japanese field force.  When the master came, he wanted to take out his heart to honor the imperial army. Of course Qiuquan and the others were treated with the highest courtesy.

    Moreover, what shocked Tang Qiuli and the others was that the troops led by Qiuquan had traveled thousands of kilometers, and not only did they not reduce their numbers, but they also doubled in size. They were all experienced hunters from the Northeastern forests, and there was one among them.  There are beards who specialize in fighting the Japanese army. They all have special skills and are born to be special forces.

    After dinner, Qiuquan smiled and told Tang Qiuli, "Bring two gifts to the teacher." Gifts?  Tang Qiuli didn't understand that Brother Qiuquan was still in the mood to prepare gifts. Qiuquan didn't explain it and took them to the room where the soldiers were eating. When they came in, they saw that there were more than 1,800 people.  In a large dining room, all the soldiers from the guard brigade were familiar, as were the soldiers from the special operations detachment. The remaining more than 900 people were all unfamiliar faces.

    This is Brother Qiuquan's new soldier. Tang Qiuli smiled and nodded to everyone. The soldiers all stood at attention and saluted, shouting loudly: "Hello, sir." His voice was loud and full of energy.  Those unfamiliar faces, obviously without special training, stood up unevenly, and a whisper sounded in the room.

    Obviously, Tang Qiuli's young face surprised these new soldiers. They never expected that this young man in his early twenties would be the top commander of the army who had been talked about by the old soldiers along the way. After the buzzing stopped,  , there is more awe in the eyes of these new soldiers. Those who can make these veterans admire from the bottom of their hearts are definitely not ordinary people. These unruly new soldiers have seen the veterans of the special operations detachment and the guard brigade along the way.  My abilities are far behind what I have, so I obey the orders obediently.

    On the floor of the room, there were two gunny bags. I didn¡¯t know what they contained. They were still squirming. Looking at Tang Qiuli¡¯s confused eyes, Qiuquan motioned to the soldiers to open the sacks. Tang Qiuli was happy to see them.  What a gift. They are two Japanese officers who were gagged. Their military ranks are not high. One is a colonel and the other is a lieutenant colonel. He surrounded more than 60,000 Japanese troops in one go. There are more than a dozen major generals alone. He still cares about these two.  Damn it, since when did Brother Qiuquan like to joke?

    Seeing Tang Qiuli's expression, Qiuquan seemed to be very disdainful, and he also smiled, pointing at the two unlucky Japanese officers and said: "This senior colonel is called Matsushita Seiichi, and this lieutenant colonel's Chinese name is Xu Fu. The division commander must be feeling  interest"

    Tang Qiuli was agitated, his scalp tightened, and he had an indescribable feeling. These two guys were the perpetrators of the Sucheng murder case. They had issued a death order themselves, but why did Brother Qiuquan take them out?  It sounds simple. When Qiuquan and the others were chasing the troops,Qiuquan became interested when he saw many such notices and flyers along the way.

    When they arrived at the outskirts of the encirclement, the first troops to see Ma Chaoyang's Second Brigade were all familiar with the captain of the special operations detachment. Seeing the constant bombardment of the Japanese troops and the panic of the Japanese soldiers in the encirclement, they also knew that Panasonic  The alliance was in the encirclement, Qiuquan used his brain.

    With more than forty soldiers who were proficient in Japanese, they took advantage of the chaos to get in. The Japanese army had been disrupted. Qiuquan and the others had unimpeded access. They kept asking around and took these two guys out without much effort.  It is fitting that Xu Fu was unlucky. He had already returned to the Japanese secret service in Peiping. Yamaguchi's intelligence section chief, Kobayashi, could not bear Yamaguchi's humiliation and committed suicide out of hatred. The secret service sent Xu Fu to take over the unlucky man's position. The reason was that Xu Fu was unlucky.  Fu is familiar with the situation in the Taihang Mountains and can better assist the Chief of Staff in the operations of the division troops.

    Xu Fu finally made it to Wuxiang. Before he could fulfill his duties, he caught up with Yamaguchi and retreated all the way. He happened to be caught by Qiuquan. Perhaps, there was some providence in the secret that allowed this heinous criminal to do so.  This guy couldn't escape Tang Qiuli's grasp, so he came all the way from Peiping to die.

    Tang Qiuli looked at them fiercely for a while, the murderous look in his eyes piercing their already devastated hearts, making these two guys frightened, and then ordered them to be sent to Huangya Cave, where they would be kept in good custody, and wait here.  After the battle, I was taken to Sucheng for public trial. I want to give an explanation to the people of Sucheng.

    Several people returned to the headquarters and continued to study how to deal with the Japanese army's march. No one had a very good way. Qiuquan, on the other hand, remained silent thoughtfully. After a while, he proposed a plan to use the Japanese army's vanguard.  With a small team as a unit and a reconnaissance pattern extending several kilometers on both sides, in the ambush area, quietly kill some of them and replace them with our soldiers to send a safe signal to the main force of the Japanese army. The troops will ambush under our control.  region.

    Tang Qiuli's eyes lit up. This was a good idea. He immediately searched for Xiangtangpu on the map. This place name fell into his eyes. Yes, an ambush was set up here. Xiangtangpu was a house with less than a hundred households.  The small village is on the south bank of the Qingzhang River, past Licheng. The terrain is flat and there is no strong terrain for ambush. The Japanese army will not be suspicious. In addition, there is a signal that the leading troops have passed safely, and they can completely catch them by surprise.

    Several people carefully reviewed the plan, taking into account all the details. Tang Qiuquan's special operations detachment was tasked with solving the small Japanese army, and soldiers who were proficient in Japanese were selected for execution. Then, Tang Qiuli issued new orders to the ambush troops.  , all troops should immediately evacuate the original ambush area and move to the Xiangtang ambush. They can carry out the first round of strike missions with two brigades of troops, while the remaining troops are hidden in the mountains behind the village.

    The artillery units must have their coordinates calibrated in advance. After the ambush has begun, they will conduct uninterrupted artillery bombardments. All units must be careful to eliminate all traces of the original ambush positions and never expose the whereabouts of the units. After receiving the order, each unit will use the  Under the cover of night, they quickly moved towards the new ambush location and moved hundreds of thousands of people without any delay. This is also one of the basic skills of the troops of the ** Division.

    Tang Qiuli was not fighting a battle of annihilation this time. Therefore, he did not deploy troops to take the Japanese army's retreat. With 120,000 troops, he was not sure of total annihilation against the Japanese army's 100,000 troops. The combat effectiveness of the Japanese soldiers should not be underestimated. If they could not be annihilated quickly,  The battle for this Japanese army fell into a stalemate. When other Japanese troops came for reinforcements, they had no choice but to order a retreat. Wouldn't it be a mess?

    At about nine o'clock in the morning on January 10, the west gate of Shexian County opened wide. First a group of Japanese cavalry came out, and then a long line of Japanese cars drove out and headed straight for Xiangtangpu. The reconnaissance troops monitoring the movements of the Japanese troops quickly reported the situation.  Report to command.

    Yamaguchi was trapped in the encirclement, counting the days on his fingers every day, hoping for reinforcements to arrive soon. He really couldn't hold on anymore. The supplies he brought from Wuxiang were used up the day before yesterday. As a last resort, Yamaguchi had to order the killing of horses to satisfy his hunger.  After the commander's horse ride, followed by the mules and horses of the artillery unit, tens of thousands of people, the few horses were enough to feed several meals, the total area was huge, and even fuel could not be found. His dignified North China Expedition Army Major General Chief of Staff  , and could only get a piece of bloody raw horse meat to satisfy their hunger.

    As for the soldiers under my command, they even ate horse hides. Despite this, as of yesterday, the troops had completely run out of food. The ** division troops were still shelling day and night, and soldiers fell under the shells every minute.  Yesterday night alone, hundreds of soldiers froze to death. It was better for Yamaguchi to wait for a cannonball to blow him up than to suffer here. However, he was so lucky that the cannonballs could not reach him.  , just endure the pain like this

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away.The Second Army has left Shexian and is heading towards Licheng to attack. If everything goes well, they will be able to join forces with the rescue force tomorrow morning.

    Yamaguchi held the telegram and burst into tears. Amaterasu appeared, and his sudden voice of "Long live His Majesty the Emperor" frightened the already numb officers.
