() When Doihara, who was discussing the attack on the Shijiazhuang battle meeting, received a telegram from the cavalry brigade, his face completely sank.Even if the casualties of more than a thousand people are not enough to seriously injure the vitality of his division, but this opponent, who has not been known until now, is the real reason for Doihara's face to sink.

The reason why he sent troops to the Jingjing Coal Mine during the attack on Shijiazhuang was to occupy it as intact as possible. This coal mine has the best coal storage and coal quality in North China.But the final result resulted in the death of all soldiers in half of the infantry brigade of the division, as well as the cavalry brigade that has not received specific casualties so far.However, from the telegram, it is not difficult to guess that the cavalry brigade has lost its combat effectiveness, and the number of casualties is probably not that small.

A military general like him understands the real meaning of launching this war of aggression better than his soldiers who like to attack cities and seize territories.That is to plunder China's rich various civilian and military resources, and expand the Japanese local industry with relatively poor resources.Although the coal mine is now occupied by them, but the coal mine was taken at such a high price, I am afraid that the North China headquarters who knows the situation will inevitably have to reprimand him.

It's just that things have come to this point, and Doihara urged the intelligence personnel to investigate clearly the opponents in this battle.On the other hand, an elite motorized squadron of the division was dispatched together with half an infantry brigade to the Jingjing coal mine to bring back the casualties.In addition, an infantry brigade is arranged. After arriving at the Jingjing coal mine, it can decide whether to garrison according to the damage of the coal mine.

When the Japanese soldiers who rushed all the way saw that the entire coal mine had been turned into ruins, they were all guessing how many explosives were buried in the explosion to form such a doomsday-like scene.If Deng Chenggong was here, he would definitely tell them with a smile, 'Not much, just over ten tons of explosives! '

In places like coal mines, other things may be lacking, but there is absolutely no shortage of explosives for mining.Of the more than ten tons of multi-strength explosives collected from the coal mine explosives warehouse, Deng Chenggong buried all of them in the mine.Until the detonating device buried deep in the mine was detonated by the cavalry who came to inspect the situation, the cavalry who had already stepped into the minefield of the mine, added more than ten tons of explosives and coal stones everywhere.As long as the soldiers are next to each other, they will either die or be disabled.Even if these later Japanese soldiers believed that they had seen tragic battlefields, the scene where only their own personnel could not see the corpses of other personnel still made the later Japanese soldiers terrified.

Compared with the soldiers of the Japanese army who were holding back the corpses that could be seen everywhere with a sad face, soldiers ran to the side to vomit from time to time, and returned to the militia column at the base with a large amount of equipment and coal. Everyone's face showed a scene of joy.If there were no casualties of those dozens of people, I am afraid that the relocation task of this trip would be more worthy of these people's joy.

Originally, Hu Zhengdao, the director of the factory, should be happy to see so much coal stored in the base steel factory warehouse, but after hearing that the Jingjing Coal Mine was blown into ruins by Deng Chenggong, he, who had participated in the construction of the coal mine in his early years, still seemed to have mixed feelings.

It's just that as a technician, he also knows that if this coal mine falls into the hands of the Japanese army intact, the little devils who own this coal mine will produce more guns and ammunition to invade their country.Deng succeeded in doing so, not only without fault but with merit.But when he heard the news, he couldn't help heaving a sigh.

When the Japanese army calculated the battle damage of the cavalry brigade and sent it to the division commander Doihara by telegram, the casualties of more than 900 people made Doihara have to admit that he felt a little distressed.You must know that it is not easy to cultivate a cavalry unit, not to mention that the horses of these cavalry units also died in this explosion.To rebuild this cavalry unit, I am afraid that it will consume a lot of combat supplies.

After hearing that the soldier sent back by the cavalry brigade was rescued, Doihara rushed to the hospital as soon as possible and personally asked about the battle situation at that time.

It's just that when he, the soldier who saved his life because his heart was different from ordinary people, told him that it was a unit of the Eighth Route Army who ambushed them, Doihara's first reaction was that it was impossible.

Until the soldier told the name and number of the leading officer, Doihara had to admit that the soldier was not lying.Because this soldier is the one who survived after watching the Japanese Army Shao Zuo and Deng Chenggong single out.Even the other party's number and name are the same as what the intelligence department knows, which is enough to prove that what the soldier said is credible.

Lamenting that this battle has been fought until now, even when the Eighth Route Army, which was not listed as a threat by them at all, has emerged, Doihara knows that he must realize his strategic goal of occupying the whole of North China as soon as possible.Only by capturing an important military town like Shijiazhuang, and the Chinese army like the Eighth Route Army, which can only attack and ambush, after they complete the strategic layout of North China, the main force of the Japanese army can be freed up to wipe them out one by one.

Doihara, who thought the situation had been investigated clearly, confessed to the intelligence department to investigate this Eighth Route Army unit that had penetrated into North China as soon as possible, and devoted himself to the battle of attacking Shijiazhuang.

On the morning of October 37, [-], the Japanese army, which had already surrounded Shijiazhuang, finally launched a campaign against Shijiazhuang, an important town in North China.With the support of the Japanese army's powerful aircraft artillery fire, the Japanese army had already captured Baoding and Zhengzong, which were also heavily defended, in the afternoon of September [-]th. However, there are very few Japanese soldiers who can survive to Shijiazhuang.

Watching the Japanese army launch such a huge military offensive, Shang Zhen, commanded by Shijiazhuang, was shocked by the powerful combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, but also sighed at the lack of effective heavy firepower.Compared with the Japanese army, which has nearly twice as many heavy artillery, they will call planes to support them when encountering strong resistance from the Japanese army.Under the double blow of the sky and the ground, no matter how stubborn the defenders are, they will only be defeated when they run out of ammunition and food.

However, after the Japanese army launched the battle, its own casualties should not be underestimated, but they were slightly smaller than those of the Japanese army.For these japanese army officers who have fallen into fanaticism, it is acceptable for the casualties of some soldiers to achieve the ultimate strategic goal, so that when they encounter the ** permanent fortifications, they still unreservedly carry out the death squads assault blasting .This almost fatal style of play still made the defenders timid, and finally had to withdraw from the position and flee to Shijiazhuang to gather.

The following Japanese army arrived at a place about three kilometers away from Shijiazhuang on the afternoon of the [-]th, preparing to launch the final offensive against Shijiazhuang.At this time, Shang Zhen, who also concentrated all the North China troops here, was also mentally prepared for a bloody battle with the Japanese army to the end.

At this time, the revolutionary troops concentrated in the periphery, there are two divisions of the No.14 Army, known as the elite of the Nationalist Party, commanded by the famous anti-Japanese general Wei Lihuang, and two divisions of the Thirteenth Army led by Tang Boen. The military still has certain advantages.For this reason, the Japanese army devoted all of its main combat forces to the siege of these two troops.

But even so, while the Japanese army's desperate war of resistance finally dealt heavy damage to the Japanese army, Shijiazhuang was broken through by the Japanese army in the early morning of the next day.And soon occupied this important military town in North China. In order to preserve its strength, the army could only retreat towards Shanxi along the Ping-Han line.

In this defensive battle, Shang Zhen arranged for the 141st Division, which falsely claimed the merits of the militia column, to Zhengding City, a military center in Shijiazhuang, to conduct defensive operations.Under the intensive care of the Japanese Army, this 141st Division, which was not so daring to fight to the death, seemed to be infected by the title of heroic unit, and also dealt heavy damage to the Japanese Army units attacking here.

Even some soldiers on the ground, after firing the last bullet, fought the Japanese army brutally in the form of hand-to-hand combat.This shocked the Japanese army attacking here. After learning that this army was the 141st Division that killed one of their major generals, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Army finally ordered to increase the offensive force and wipe out the 141st Division.

It is precisely because of the tenacious resistance of the 141st Division that the Japanese Army has no doubts at all. The death of Major General Ishii of the 108th Brigade of the Japanese Army has nothing to do with them.In a sense, sometimes being too famous can also improve the combat effectiveness of troops.On this point, the later leaders all felt that the 141st Division was worthy of being a heroic unit that was commended by Jiang Guangtou.

But who knows, the commander of the 141st Division, who was lucky enough to save his life under the desperate rescue of the soldiers, was looking at the direction of Xingtai City and gritted his teeth: "Militia Column, I remember you today! Turn, one day this old man Qiu will definitely take revenge."

The surviving division commander watched his reorganized division go through this defense battle, and less than one regiment survived.And according to the soldiers who came back, those attacking little devils can accept the surrender of other Japanese soldiers, but they will be killed without any courtesy, even if you have already raised your hand and surrendered.

Some soldiers who are fluent in Japanese learned a piece of news from the soldiers of the Japanese Army. It was because the North China Front Army Headquarters of the Japanese Army had issued a death order to wipe out their troops that killed a major general of their own army. .After hearing the news, the commander of the 141st division immediately hated the militia column that threw this disaster on his head, and the gift of being promoted to lieutenant general was selectively forgotten by him.

However, there is a saying that is true, good people do not live long, and evil people live for thousands of years. This teacher who escaped the catastrophe was lucky to survive in the later period of the War of Resistance.And returning to the North China theater after the end of the Anti-Japanese War really caused certain losses to the militia column.But what was the end result?Temporarily sell off, huh, huh!Thank you for the follow-up!
