There are many fierce people guarding Qingyan, such as company commander Zhou Beichen.
Once, when the Japanese army attacked at night, Zhou Beichen personally held a machine gun and fired, and just before he changed ammunition, a Japanese soldier wearing gloves came to grab his machine gun.
Zhou Beichen shouted: "Deputy battalion commander! My machine gun was dragged by the devils. "
Shi Shengrong happened to be there at that time, very close to Zhou Beichen, and when he heard Zhou Beichen's shout, he also yelled: "Wait for Lao Tzu to clean him up!" The deputy battalion commander jumped out of the trench with a submachine gun, swept over with a shuttle, and beat the short-sighted Japanese soldiers into honeycomb coal, and all the Japanese soldiers who came up behind were scared away.
When the night attack failed, the Japanese attacked during the day. When the battle was at its fiercest, Company Commander Zhou Beichen commanded the battle while strafing. The planes of the Chinese and American air forces were busy, and the Japanese troops rushed to **, so they threw bombs on **.
Before the 171st Regiment took over, the Japanese infantry and artillery coordination did a great job, and its artillery had a clear advantage. After receiving the defense, Wang Jiyou, the platoon commander of the Guantong platoon, was ordered to bring two mountain guns to the front line.
Guantong row is a combination of observation and communication. The Guantong platoon is in the artillery and is responsible for surveying and communication, and the officers and men must be educated, at least have gone to secondary school, so that they can use the observation instruments and calculate the shooting yuan.
Wang Jiyou, the platoon commander, is also the 17th phase of Whampoa. He was a student in exile who watched his father be killed by the Japanese army, and he had a bitter hatred with the Japanese army. The first time he participated in the battle, he thought silently in his heart; "Dad, I'm going to avenge you! "
Wang Jiyou and Company Commander Zhou Beichen are not only classmates, but also fellow villagers, and have a very good personal relationship. Wang Jiyou's observation post was close to Zhou Beichen's command post, and the cooperation was quite tacit.
On one occasion, Wang Jiyou saw more than 40 Japanese soldiers crawling towards the main position. Zhou Beichen also found out, and hurriedly called his classmate: "Jiyou, there are devils over there, hurry up and shoot!" "
Wang Jiyou copied the ** and gave the order:"Grenade! Instantaneous signal tube, to the left five, 2400 meters, standby put. ”
The artillery positions replied: "Ready".
Wang Jiyou saw the opportunity and shouted into the microphone: "Release!" "I heard only two booms, and two shells fell into the crowd ......
Zhou Beichen gave him a thumbs up: "Jiyou, you have to get these two cannons!" (Jiangxi dialect: quite powerful)."
The middle of the squadron: The Jiangkou blocking battle includes two positions, Qingyan and Tieshan, with the 171st Regiment defending Qingyan and the 170th Regiment guarding Tieshan.
The main forces of the 120th Wing and the 133rd Wing of the 116th Division of the Japanese Army were all out, and the Japanese troops on the front line reached more than 6,000 people at the maximum, but there was no progress.
On May 3, the headquarters of the Sixth Front Army and the headquarters of the "China Dispatch Army" in the direction of the Zhijiang operation: "In the direction of the Zhijiang operation, the central ** concentrated an unexpected large number of troops" and asked the higher authorities to increase the strength of two or three divisions to help. As a result, no one wants to deal with him!
The commander of the Sixth Front Army, Okabe Naosaburo, said: The troops originally stationed in Guilin, Liuzhou, and Nanning were all retreating at this time, shrinking the battlefield and preventing the landing of American troops -- the voiceover is: The Zhijiang battlefield is no longer important, and it is impossible to assign troops to Banxi.
The commander of the Chinese Dispatch Army, Okamura Ninji, was very tactful. He thinks that if you increase the number of troops for Banxi, two or three divisions will not be enough at all, and at least seven divisions will have to be sent to have a chance of winning - that is to say, Banxi's idea is outrageous, **cool go** to rest.
The problem is that the front line is not idle. The battle in Xinhua became more and more intense, and under the fierce counterattack of the squadron, the Japanese Chongguang detachment suffered heavy losses, and could only passively defend Yangxi in the southwest of Xinhua, and the westward advance could only be realized in a dream.
The Japanese 116th Division in the center was the most combat-effective, but under the "heavy hammer" of the 74th Army and the 100th Army in turn, the three infantry wings were trapped for half a month and did not advance.
Among the three wings, the 109th Wing that attacked Gyudong was the worst. The ammunition was getting scarcer and smaller, and the 116th Division had to weave its way through the gaps in the encirclement, risking supplies. But there was simply not enough, and if it weren't for the airdrop and collection of bullet casings for processing in the makeshift arsenal, the "cold war" would have been fought only with bayonets and butts.
In fact, from the 116th Division of the Japanese Army to the entire 20th Army, it was unable to support it in terms of logistics. Two small Japanese transport planes flew over the 109th Wing and dropped ammunition. The Japanese soldiers excitedly rushed over to open the ammunition box and found that there were bricks inside, which made people extremely sad and desperate.
The living quarters of the Takiji United were in the ditch, and the seriously wounded and sick were also together. They just want to break through now, and what they want to do is to cross Leifeng Mountain, attack Zhijiang or something, it's all in vain.
The other two wings were attacking, but the more people died. Even the commander of the Ryoshida Division has no confidence.
The situation at the Japanese front was summarized at the command post of the 20th Army in Shaoyang. Seeing that the Third Route Army was being beaten everywhere and that there was no strong second-line corps, on May 4, Army Commander Banxi ordered the 116th Division and the 58th Brigade to withdraw to Shanmen and Dongkou to assemble.
Bannishi's idea was to form up the formation, retract his fists first, and then slam out. However, the 58th Brigade of the Japanese Army had been exhausted from the fighting, and as soon as it received the order, it began to run backwards, lacking wisdom and not being able to make contact, as if it was in an unorganized retreat.
This scene occurred during the rout of the defense of Nanjing, and this rout was very dangerous.
The 115th Brigade of the Japanese Army stationed in Wuyang was the first to break away from the main force, and the 5th Division of the Chinese 94th Army, which was advancing towards Wugang, was completely annihilated.
The 117th Brigade east of Wuyang was surrounded, and they didn't know that the 115th Brigade had already **, so they radioed to it for help, but the result was that the sky should not be and the earth was not spiritual. The 117th Brigade managed to break free and rushed towards Garden City.
The Chinese 5th Division had already predicted the Japanese army's prediction and set up an ambush in Huayuan City in advance. The Japanese retreated and did not dare to take the main road, so they climbed the rugged mountain road and retreated, and all the baggage such as mules, horses, and artillery were thrown away.
On 7 May, the 44th Division, which had driven reinforcements to Wugang, arrived outside Wugang and attacked inside and outside with the defending troops. The besieging Japanese army had no intention of fighting for a long time, and was quickly defeated, and Wugang finally broke the siege.
A small number of Japanese soldiers fled into the mountains in the chaos, they were so hungry and panicked, and went to the village at night to grab food, some threw away their guns, and some grabbed clothes and pretended to be ordinary people to continue to escape.
The troops could not search the mountains on a large scale, so they let the township offices search and arrest, and for each person captured, they were rewarded with 10,000 yuan in legal currency.
The Japanese army burned, killed, and plundered in Wugang, and the locals hated them to the core, and they would not let them go even if they didn't give money.
The townships immediately organized a force search of the mountains and captured more than 10 Japanese soldiers.
When the Japanese prisoners were taken to Wugang Castle, the citizens rushed to see them. The Japanese prisoners were dressed in vegetables, and one of the soldiers was wearing robbed women's trousers. When a second lieutenant officer was tried, he wrote down the words "all done" in despair, and then kept silent.
On the evening of May 7, the 120th Wing and 133rd Wing of the 116th Division of the Japanese Army in Jiangkou withdrew one after another, while the 109th Wing ran away without looking back a day in advance.
Because the division commander Lingtian thought that it was the most difficult for the 109th Wing to withdraw, he deliberately sent the rescue brigade to meet it a day in advance.
The rescue brigade has not encountered the 109th Wing at all since it was dispatched, but it has grown from thousands to hundreds. When he was ordered to answer again, he couldn't even beat the local Yao self-defense forces.
The folk customs of Xiangxi are fierce, and there are many ** among the people, most of which are birds. There are more than 30 people in the Yao Self-Defense Force, and there are only two or three long and short guns, and all the birds and guns are left. When using a bird's gun, the shooter seems to sniff the gun to the nose and then spew smoke out of the ground with a bang, so they call the bird gun "sniffing gun," and the Self-Defense Forces are the "sniffing gun."
If you fight with the Japanese, the "sniffing gun" will definitely not be able to do the 38 big cover. When the Self-Defense Forces engaged in guerrilla warfare, they lay in groups of two or three people in the grass and thorns, fighting devils like wild boars. If the "boar" was a single Japanese soldier, he would have been out of luck, and the guerrillas would have happily captured their favorite rifles.
If there are a lot of Japanese soldiers and they have already been discovered, the "gun-sniffing team" will run away after the fight. They have been running in the mountains and dense forests since they were children, going up and down the mountains as if they were walking on flat ground, running like flying, and no one can catch up.
On May 7, Lan Chunda, the captain of the "Gun Sniffing Team", sent Liu Dongsheng out of the mountain, and he was caught by the Japanese rescue team as soon as he got out of the mountain.
Liu Dongsheng was young and short, and when he was caught, he cried and cried desperately, saying that he wanted to find his father. The Japanese army killed people like hemp and would not let him go at all, and the Japanese army wanted to understand the situation and let him lead the way, so he was locked up in the house.
Liu Dongsheng is the kind of skin child who is more fur than a monkey. , he ran away that night, and went into the mountains to find Lan Chunda.
Lan Chunda gathered his men and horses to slowly approach the Japanese army in the woods and grass.
As he sent out the signal, the "gun-sniffing team" came together from all directions. The Japanese army was caught off guard, some were directly put down, and some were hit by birds, although they couldn't die, but they were full of small projectiles, and they couldn't pick them out, and they shouted in pain.
In this blockade, hundreds of Japanese soldiers were wounded, 13 were killed, and 8 38 large covers were captured. The frightened rescue team gave up the response and hurriedly retreated ......
More and more Japanese prisoners were sent to Chenxi. The concentration camps were overcrowded, so some of them had to be transferred to Guiyang and Chongqing.
During the escort, the prisoners rioted, and two prisoners took the lead in grabbing guns, killing a platoon commander and two American drivers. The Guiyang Supplementary Training Office sent troops to suppress it. There had never been such a thing before, because so many prisoners had never been captured.
