    Chapter 1,142 Never Surrender to the Chinese

    What happened in the northwest canyon of Degang?  Tang Qiuli, like the people outside, knew nothing. He would only know what happened after Chu Tian and the besieged troops escaped smoothly.  .

    The telescope in Tang Qiuli's hand has never left the exit of the canyon. He is more nervous than anyone else. In the past three days and three nights, Degang has become a worry for him. Because of this unexpected incident, the battle in northern Myanmar has changed.  The entire deployment was changed beyond recognition. When the blocking line in the Baldwin Mining Area was tight, it still held back the blocking troops of seven brigades.

    The original plan for a decisive battle with Ito's main Japanese army in the Gangao Mountains was forced to give up. The blocking battle in the Wubin and Bodwin mining areas was supposed to be a step-by-step, flexible style of fighting. Now, it has become a stubborn defense of Wubin.  Bin, in a hard-to-match situation with the Japanese army, the 29th Strategic Reserve Corps had to be mobilized in advance. All this was because of Degang, the cunning of the Japanese army in Degang, and the underestimation of the enemy by Liu Hongzhang, commander of the 1st Brigade.  Come on, other book friends are reading:.

    Thinking of all this, Tang Qiuli hated the Japanese troops in the canyon. Suddenly, the communications staff reported hurriedly: "Commander, the leader of the Chu detachment called, the third detachment of the special operations detachment broke out to cover the canyon.  At the exit, he was entangled by the chasing Japanese troops. Captain Chu asked the division commander to provide artillery cover! "

    Tang Qiuli's heart trembled. Chutian's request was an extreme risk. He couldn't see the target clearly in the dark night, and he was entangled with the Japanese army. When the shells fell, who knew whether it was his own troops or the Japanese who were bombed?  If this method was feasible, Tang Qiuli would not have to wait two or three days for Chutian's special operations detachment to arrive before starting to solve the problem.

    Tang Qiuli ordered without looking back: "Ask Captain Chutian again if he can get rid of the Japanese army and escape smoothly without artillery support. I must let him tell the truth!" He did not dare to take this risk, for the sake of  After rescuing more than a thousand soldiers and adding a special operations team of more than 400 people, the gain outweighs the loss.  .

    Soon, the communications staff reported again, "Division commander, the Chutian detachment leader called back. The third detachment has been entangled with the Japanese army and cannot escape. We once again requested artillery support and asked them to provide accurate artillery bombardment positions. Chutian detachment leader  He also said that the Japanese troops were gathering more and more, and they had dispatched tanks, which seemed to be trying to cut off our retreat. Please don't hesitate, division commander. Otherwise, not only will the troops of the first brigade be unable to be rescued, but even the special operations detachment will be trapped.  in."

    Tang Qiuli suddenly became nervous. If Chu Tian was trapped again, he really didn't know how to solve it. He said to the communications staff with a pale face: "Get on the phone with the artillery commander Zheng Yong! Hurry!"

    "Is it Zheng Yong? We have a very important mission. We are ordering all the heavy artillery troops to cut off the Japanese follow-up troops according to the bombardment direction provided by Chutian, and cover the troops protruding from the mouth of the canyon. How about it? You can't hurt your own people. Are you sure?  Tang Qiuli asked in a stern tone.

    "Commander, please rest assured. As long as we have the bearing and coordinates, our artillery shells will not miss. I have ordered three heavy artillery regiments to be on standby at any time. We can fire within five minutes." Zheng Yong replied very confidently.  ,:.

    Tang Qiuli felt relieved and said, "Okay, you can contact Chutian directly. I'll wait for your good news." Putting down the phone, he picked up the telescope and stared into the canyon without daring to be distracted.  Just after a minute, an earth-shaking loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the ** Division's artillery position. A group of artillery shells, dragging long tail flames, roared into the canyon from far to near.

    In an instant, a huge explosion echoed in the night sky, and the fire immediately rose in the canyon, enveloping the red smoke clouds, and reflected half of the sky red. The short bombardment only lasted for about fifteen minutes, and then came to an abrupt end, as if  Like a hurricane, it comes suddenly and leaves suddenly.

    Following Tang Qiuli, Liu Hongzhang, who was once the commander of the first brigade of the regiment and now Tang Qiuli's staff officer, was so nervous that his palms were sweating. It can be said that Liu Hongzhang had an unshirkable responsibility for the current passive situation.  The responsibility, not to mention, is that those trapped inside are his troops, and moreover, they are the hostages he personally gave to the Japanese.  .

    After a long time, when the division commander's staff were almost suffocating from waiting, a large group of figures appeared in sight. Tang Qiuli could tell at a glance that the one at the front was Chu Tian. He hurried forward to meet him.  The sound of gunfire at the mouth of the valley became more and more intense.

    In the dark night, Tian's face could not be seen clearly, and he smelled the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke, rushing toward his face, "Chu Tian, ??are you all out? How is the situation?" Tang Qiuli asked eagerly  road.

    Hearing the division commander's voice, Chu Tian ran up to Tang Qiuli, his eyes shining brightly even in the dark night, "Report to the division commander, all the besieged troops have escaped, but  "Chu Tian's voice is somewhat charming.?Tang Qiuli felt nervous and asked hurriedly, "Just what? Say it quickly!"

    Chu Tian adjusted his mood and replied: "Commander, in this battle, our special operations detachment suffered 278 casualties and 11 officer casualties. Most of them were from the third detachment. This is a special battle."  This is the most casualty battle since the detachment was formed. I really don¡¯t know how to face Captain Tang.¡±

    Tang Qiuli patted Chutian on the shoulder and sighed silently. Every officer and soldier in the special operations detachment is an elite selected from thousands of people. Any casualty will make Brother Qiuquan tremble with heartache.  The battle resulted in nearly three hundred casualties. One can imagine Chu Tian's mood:.

    Tang Qiuli comforted him, "Chutian, don't be sad, just choose from among the division's troops. Even if you choose the officers and soldiers of the division's security brigade, I will give it to you unconditionally and guarantee to complete the formation.  As for Commander Tang, let me go and tell you, take the troops and go down and have a good rest. As soon as you arrive at Degang, you will go into battle. It will be difficult for you!"

    Chu Tian's nose felt sore and he almost shed tears. He rushed into battle. If he had been given a day and a night to prepare, the result would not be like this. But he controlled his emotions, saluted, turned around and left. Tang Qiuli left.  The pain in Chu Tian's heart could be read in Chu Tian's back.

    Liu Hongzhang asked in a low voice: "Commander, can I go and see the protruding troops?" Tang Qiuli glared at him, turned away, and ignored him. Liu Hongzhang stepped aside politely.  , "Division commander, the Sixth Brigade reported that the Japanese army concentrated a large number of tanks and forced a breakout at the mouth of the valley. The First Brigade and the Sixth Brigade are fighting fiercely with the Japanese army." The communications staff reported back.

    Tang Qiuli said fiercely: "Order Zheng Yong, all the artillery and rocket artillery troops to block the exit of the canyon with artillery shells, and let a Japanese escape. Chu Ziye and Zheng Yong, just like Liu Hongzhang, come to my side as staff officers."  ¡±

    The earth-shattering sound of artillery sounded again. This time, no matter Tang Qiuli, Zheng Yong or Chu Ziye, they were no longer restrained. The artillery shells fell overwhelmingly like locusts. The rocket artillerymen were not to be outdone. Groups of rockets hit the ground.  The exit of the canyon was a sea of ??fire. The Japanese army, trying to take advantage of the chaos to break out, left behind dozens of burning tanks and the corpses of thousands of soldiers, and retreated in embarrassment.

    Overnight, the Japanese army tried to break out several times in succession, but the Japanese army, which had no scruples, would give the Japanese army such an opportunity. The anger that had been suppressed for three days and three nights suddenly burst out. At the exit of the canyon,  The corpses of Japanese soldiers were piled up in layers at the mouth of the valley. The burning remains of tanks were emitting black smoke and dark red flames. The air was filled with charred corpses and a pungent stench, mixed with a choking smell.  The smell of gunpowder smoke is suffocating.

    Zhongze's heart began to tremble. The situation was over. These four words suddenly appeared in his mind. Zhongze could not figure out how those ghost-like Army soldiers suddenly appeared in the canyon, and,  With incredible speed, he defeated the surrounding troops and rescued the soldiers of the Army Division?

    Could it be that these later troops, whose agility, marksmanship and individual tactics were far superior to those of ordinary Chinese soldiers, climbed down from the cliffs on both sides?  This is the only possibility. There is no road through the valley entrance in other places. At the moment when Zhongze seemed to figure it out, the sweat on his face started to fall.

    He was not afraid of these Imperial Army soldiers who were far superior to ordinary people, but he understood his situation. There were no hostages to hold Tang Qiuli. The current situation of the imperial army was like a turtle in a urn. There was no need to fight, and they would be surrounded for another three to five days.  , just starving can starve more than 20,000 imperial soldiers to death.

    After several attempts to break out and the loss of thousands of soldiers and dozens of tanks, Nakazawa knew that he would not be able to get out of this canyon. He did not send a message to Commander-in-Chief Ito asking for help. Nakazawa's head was not empty.  , the main force of the Imperial Army, which could have been reached in seven or eight hours, has been gone for a day and a night, and there is still no trace, which means that Commander-in-Chief Ito cannot reach Tokugang at all.

    In view of the current situation, Nakazawa held a military meeting. At the meeting, he made a suggestion that surprised and angered all the participating Japanese officers. "In order to avoid the annihilation of the entire army, for the sake of the lives of more than 20,000 soldiers,  , I am wanted to discuss surrender with Tang Qiuli, what do you think?"

    The meeting place exploded at that time. Nakazawa was the first Japanese general to surrender to the enemy. Nakazawa's words aroused unanimous opposition from all Japanese officers. Not only did they object, but they all stared with blood-red eyes, almost almost  After eating the shame and scum of the Japanese Imperial People, how can we, the dignified Japanese Imperial People, surrender to the inferior Chinese people?

    Shame, a great shame!  Several senior officers discussed it and realized that the old habit of Japanese military officials below the military level had returned. They simply deprived Nakazawa of his command and took him to a cave.One moment, he was the commander strategizing, and the next moment, he became a prisoner of his compatriots. Probably, after Nakaze took over as commander, he never imagined that he would end up like this, right?
