    Chapter 1034 I want to take a bite

    Tang Qiuli had already issued an order to Ma Chaoyang's Southeast Mobile Corps, the main assault force in the Nanning Battle, to launch a general attack on the 120,000 Japanese troops besieged in Nanning in the early morning of September 7. It didn't matter how many days the Nanning Battle lasted.  , this group of Japanese troops is already a ripe melon. As long as Ma Chaoyang exerts a little effort, the battle will be over within three days. There will be no problem. Since there is so much time, there is no need to put pressure on the Southeast Mobile Corps and cause unforeseen consequences.  necessary casualties.  -< Piaotian literature registered members recommend this work >-%.net

    Temple Shouyi's main force at the front line of Loushanguan has never moved. Tang Qiuli has lost patience with them. He originally thought that the actions of Ma Chaoyang's regiment outside Nanning would stimulate Temple Shouyi, but this old devil was sure.  Xue Yue's Central Army refused to let go. Nanning was in danger and refused to look back.

    In this case, Nanning, as a bait, has lost its effect. If it is eliminated in advance, all the troops of the division on the Nanning battlefield can be mobilized to Loushanguan to fight a head-on battle of annihilation. As for Shouyi in the temple, on the way back to Nanning,  , the plan to ambush along the way could only fail. Tang Qiuli just couldn't figure it out. Shouyi's situation in the temple was already obvious and he was absolutely passive, but he was just wasting his time at Loushanguan. Why?

    On the Nanning battlefield, Ma Chaoyang's regiment had begun preparations for the general offensive. At this moment, the ninth detachment of Chutian's special operations detachment received intelligence that the Japanese troops on the Loushanguan front line had left Loushan on the afternoon of September 6.  Passing the battlefield and the whole army going south, this is not important. The most important thing is the route of Shouyi in the temple going south, which Tang Qiuli never expected.

    "The division pointed out that when our detachment was monitoring the Japanese troops on the front line of Loushanguan, we discovered that the Japanese troops had made some moves. On the afternoon of September 6, all their troops took the route of Zunyi, and then turned to Bijie to judge their intentions. They seemed to be turning into Guizhou.  Our detachment is closely monitoring the purpose of the west, and will report the specific situation at any time," this is the intelligence of the ninth special operations detachment.

    After reading the information, Tang Qiuli rushed to the map and punched Bijie hard. The old fox in the temple, Shouyi, had fooled everyone. Where did he turn into Qianxi? To the south of Bijie was Liupanshui.  , the shortest road from western Guizhou to northern Yunnan, the real purpose is the same as the purpose of the previous four divisions of the Japanese army, to go straight to Yunnan.

    This was indeed beyond everyone's expectations, including Tang Qiuli, who thought he could control everything. To do this requires a lot of determination and courage for Shouichi Temple to give up Guiyang, which he fought so hard to win, give up the established goal of capturing Chongqing, and even give up the city of Nanning.  A strategic location and hundreds of thousands of soldiers, no matter whether a strong man cut off his wrist or he was ruthless, in short, the departure of Touichi Terauchi was a good move that no one expected.

    First of all, returning to Nanning thousands of miles away was a last resort. Regardless of whether there was enough time, Tang Qiuli's troops besieged Nanning without attacking. His true intention may have aroused the vigilance of Shouichi in the temple, and he rushed more than a thousand times.  Here, from northern Guizhou to southern Guangxi, more than 200,000 troops rushed to Nanning exhausted. What awaited them was probably a situation where the city was destroyed and the army was in mourning, and more than 100,000 imperial soldiers were wiped out.

    The troops of the Japanese Army, which had just won a great victory, came overwhelmingly with the power of the victory in Nanning. Temple Shoichi had no confidence, so he used more than 200,000 exhausted troops to return for reinforcements from a long distance to face the army, which was full of energy and waiting for work.  The division had hundreds of thousands of troops, and the result of a reluctant battle was that the main force of the Southern Expeditionary Army was completely annihilated.

    Terauchi Shouichi was not Yamashita Fengfumi. He knew that the combat effectiveness and equipment level of the Imperial Army's troops exceeded those of the Imperial Japanese Army. This frustrated Terauchi Shouichi, who had always been proud of the powerful force of the Imperial Army. Secondly, after dispatching  On the way back to Nanning to aid the main force of the army, the Chinese army was indispensable to block and ambush along the way. After fighting all the way, how much fighting power and attack power the army still had to break the siege and rescue people, and not to involve themselves, would be lucky.

    Night falls on the mountains, jungles and undulating hills of western Guizhou. It is already early September. The evening wind blowing from the valleys is not cool at all. The air is humid and muggy, which makes people feel depressed and always feels  A turbid air is pressing in my heart and cannot be dissipated, just like the mood of Shouichi in the temple at this time.

    Temple Shouichi looked at the soldiers with low morale and slow steps in the night, like ghostly shadows, disappearing and appearing in the dark night. Looking back at Loushanguan, which was as silent as a giant, he couldn't tell the bitter feeling in his heart.  This long pass blocked the Imperial Japanese Army's way north to Chongqing and swallowed up the lives of tens of thousands of imperial soldiers.

    For more than 20 days, Shouyi in the temple poured countless artillery shells on the Loushanguan position every day. It was not until the logistics supply line was cut off by the ** division troops that the intensity of the artillery fire decreased. For more than 20 days, it was difficult to move even an inch, and the force was overwhelming.  The empire's southern dispatched troops stopped here. Temple Shouichi remembered this majestic pass, remembered Xue Yue, and remembered the different soldiers of the Central Army.

    &nbsp; It has been several hours since the troops set off, but Juichi Terauchi still kept his original command position. He seemed to be waiting for something. In the tent, the atmosphere was dull and depressing. A dozen senior staff officers and staff were silently accompanying the clay sculptures.  Your Excellency, the wood-plastic commander-in-chief, seemed to be in a bad mood. In front of Loushang Pass, it was a helpless place for every officer and soldier of the Japanese Southern Expedition to China.

    That night, around 11 o'clock, a major combat staff officer entered the tent, breaking the dull air. His eyes brightened, "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, Seventh Army 102, 104 serving as rearguard"  Reported to the 105th Division that there was no action taken by the Chinese government troops on the Loushanguan defense line, and the enemy position was silent. The division commander requested instructions to evacuate according to the original plan? "

    The light in Terauchi's eyes dimmed, and he muttered very lonely, "Let's go." With a deep sense of frustration, Terauchi left Loushanguan, which had been under attack for more than 20 days, and turned to the direction of Bijie. Behind him, three people  Japanese soldiers from three divisions crawled out of their hidden positions and followed their commander-in-chief southward, embarking on a new path of killing.

    Even if Siuchi Shouichi was defeated at Loushanguan, he would not let go of the Chinese government troops and Xue Yue who hated him to the core at the last moment. The evacuation was carried out with great fanfare, and all the officers and soldiers of the Central Army in the Loushanguan position were  Seeing that the Japs had withdrawn and the night had just fallen, the soldiers of the three divisions of the Seventh Army quietly ambush on the way back. Even if they were to leave, they would bite Xue Yue hard. Terauchi Shouichi thought bitterly  .

    Unfortunately, Juichi Templeuchi's wishful thinking failed once again. Xue Yue, the commander of the Chinese government forces, seemed to understand his plot and did not move. There was an accidental process. The Japanese troops withdrew, and Xue Yue had already received the news.  After hanging on for more than twenty days, he finally settled down. He knew that he had won. Not only had he saved the Loushanguan defense line, but he had also eliminated the biggest threat to Chongqing. At this moment, he was already a hero.

    But Xue Yue was still unwilling to give in. The murderous intention in his heart had not been released. He was suppressed and beaten by the Japanese for more than 20 days, and tens of thousands of soldiers were injured or killed. Now, the little devil left as soon as he said it. How can there be such a cheap thing? He immediately  Emergency deployment was made, and troops from two armies were dispatched to chase the Japanese troops retreating south. If they could not hold back the large Japanese troops, they had to bite their tails and bite off a piece of meat.

    Xue Yue and Terauchi Juichi had the same idea. They would not let go of their opponents at the last moment. Of course, Xue Yue also considered that the Japanese army might have an ambush, so he sent a fourth force behind the two armies, about fifteen kilometers away.  The Group Army and the Seventh Group Army, as the second echelon, once the troops in front exchange fire with the Japanese army or are ambushed, the second echelon will rush out to counter the encirclement.

    For this reason, Xue Yue transferred almost more than half of the troops on the Loushanguan defense line, hoping to fight a beautiful final battle. The battle plan was reported to Chongqing. Xue Yue and a group of Central Army generals were gearing up, waiting for Chairman Chiang's order to arrive.  , take good care of the bird spirit that you have had for more than twenty days.

    However, Chairman Chiang's call back was like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's heads, "Bo Ling, the call has been received. The Japanese army will withdraw immediately. We have won a complete victory in the Battle of Loushanguan. At this time  , we must not act too hastily or be blindly optimistic. The Japanese army is cunning and insidious. They suddenly withdrew their troops. The purpose of the sudden withdrawal is still unknown. The top priority is to stick to the Loushanguan defense line. Remember to aim high and cause unnecessary losses. Therefore, the combat plan will not be approved.  , this order, Jiang Zhongzheng.¡±

    Xue Yue was full of passion, and he was boiling in his heart. But there was nothing he could do. The old man personally ordered not to act rashly. Xue Yue didn't even dare to send out a single soldier, so he could only watch the little devil disappear from his sight. The feeling in his heart  Angry, speaking of it, he was as disappointed as Juichi Terauchi.

    Chairman Chiang's strict order inadvertently changed the war situation in northern Guizhou. If Xue Yue sent troops to pursue him according to the plan, the three ambushed Japanese divisions would never miss this good opportunity, and the two armies of the Central Army surrounded them.  The Japanese Seventh Army would be unable to escape, and Terauchi Juichi would definitely not allow the Central Army to destroy the Seventh Army.

    If the main force of the dispatched army turns back for rescue, it will definitely be a big melee between Loushanguan and Zunyi. In the end, it is unknown who will win. Xue Yue has backup at the Loushanguan defense line, and can also mobilize second-line troops at any time to supplement the strength.  Vacancy, therefore, Loushanguan is still a solid line of defense that the Japanese army cannot overcome.

    However, the losses of the Central Army will definitely be very heavy. It is estimated that not many people can retreat to Loushanguan. Temple Shouichi cannot escape from northern Guizhou, and the plan to march into Yunnan has come to nothing. Tang Qiuli's troops ended the Nanning Campaign and all fronts  Pressure came over, and Juichi Templeuchi was the result of being surrounded.

    After Xue Yue's great victory, he lost his troops. Those big bosses in the government who did not do anything but only dealt with people were jealous of Xue Yue's achievements and would not miss this good opportunity to impeach him. In order to calm down the public anger and appease all parties, Chairman Chiang would inevitably  Xue Yue will be dealt with, and Xue Boling changes from a hero to a criminal.People, it¡¯s not impossible.

    ¡°Perhaps, this is the fickleness of fate. I don¡¯t know whether it was the luck or misfortune of Xue Yue and Shouichi Temple. In short, Chairman Chiang¡¯s order allowed the war situation in the south to continue to develop according to its original trajectory.
