After the Japanese fighter planes disappeared this time, Li Guoyao ordered the soldiers to come out to assemble. Later, he counted the casualties and found that three people had been killed and four injured.
Although it feels a little distressing, after all, these special operations team members are all elites who have been carefully selected. It is distressing every time one of them is lost, not to mention the 7 casualties!
However, after seeing the casualties of the Japs, Li Guoyao's mood finally improved. They collected 122 corpses from the Japanese positions and found 57 wounded.
¡°All the wounded must have been killed. After collecting all the Japanese weapons and equipment, Li Guoyao and others continued on their way.
The only pity is that only two of the original six cars are left, and the remaining four have all been destroyed.
One of them was freed up to transport the gold, silver and captured equipment, and the remaining one was used to load the soldiers. The rest followed the car on foot. Anyway, it was not far from Hefei City.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Li Guoyao and others finally arrived in Hefei City. After confirming their identities, they were directly arranged to rest in the guest house of the theater headquarters.
Early the next morning, Li Guoyao received an order to rush to the theater headquarters immediately, and the theater commander wanted to see him.
Li Guoyao did not dare to neglect and immediately drove to the theater headquarters.
Arriving at Chief Gu¡¯s office, Li Guoyao saw that Chief of Staff Huang Baitao was also there. In addition, there were also Commander-in-Chief Zhang and Liu Shiyi!
Seeing Li Guoyao knocking on the door and coming in, Chief Gu nodded and said, "Sternly, I heard that you were ambushed by the Japanese army on your way back. Is this true?"
"Well, in Guanting Town between Lu'an and Hefei, the Japs first dispatched an elite squad to ambush my convoy. After it was annihilated, they sent a dozen planes to bomb it. Although I am fine, but The men under his command suffered heavy casualties, and only two of the accompanying cars were bombed!" Li Guoyao said.
"I will report this matter to the committee in person later, and I will definitely give you an explanation!" Chief Gu said seriously.
You must know that Li Guoyao's return to the Third War Zone is absolutely a military secret. Whether it is the Military Commission, the Third War Zone or Li Guoyao himself, it is strictly confidential. Once anyone knows about it, the consequences will be disastrous.
¡°And this doesn¡¯t just involve Li Guoyao alone. Hundreds of senior officers of the national army are often involved in various transfers or reporting on their duties. If everyone is intercepted and killed by little devils like this, then that¡¯s okay!
"Well, then this will trouble you, sir!" Li Guoyao said.
" Having said that, Li Guoyao didn't really think that the superiors would give him justice. You must know that the status of the people involved in this matter was extraordinary. Even Chiang Kai-shek might not dare to touch him.
¡°Now that everyone is here, let¡¯s get down to business!¡±
Then Commander Gu continued: "Sternly, the main reason for calling you back in a hurry this time is that there have been major changes in the battle situation on the front line, and I have to ask you to come back!"
"Oh, are the Japs going to attack Bengbu again? But that's not right. The defeated soldiers of the 13th Division simply don't have that strength. Could it be that the Japs Sixth Division is going to attack Hefei?" Li Guoyao said.
"It is inevitable that the little devils will attack Hefei, but our Third War Zone is not a vegetarian, and we are really not afraid of them. The trouble this time was not our Third War Zone, but the Fifth War Zone!"
Li Guoyao was stunned and said: "The fifth war zone? Could it be that the commander is talking about the Shandong battlefield?"
"Well, something big happened on the battlefield in Shandong. Teng County was lost. The troops stationed in Teng County of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army were completely wiped out. Division Commander Wang Mingzhang died for the country!" Chief Gu said solemnly.
Li Guoyao stood up suddenly. He knew about the Tengxian Defense War. According to battle history records, on March 10, 1938, the 2nd Army of the Japanese North China Front made a decision and ordered Isotani Rensuke's 10th Division to fight with a The brigade went south from Zouxian County on Jinpu Road, captured Tengxian County and Lincheng, annihilated the Chinese troops in this area, and occupied the area north of the Grand Canal.
At the same time, after Itagaki Seishiro's 5th Division occupied Yizhou, a part of it marched west to the vicinity of Yi County to assist the 10th Division in fighting.
After receiving the order, the 10th Division began to attack Lunan on the morning of March 14. Its attacking force was Kei Setani's 33rd Brigade and its accompanying troops. The enemy set out from Liangxiadian, south of Zouxian County, and attacked southward from both sides of the railway. Although they were resisted along the way, they arrived near Tengxian County on the evening of the 15th.
In the evening, the enemy Kei Setani's 33rd Brigade arrived in Teng County. They immediately scouted the nearby terrain and made offensive arrangements. The 10th Brigade of Akashiba Yaezo attacked Teng County; the 63rd Brigade of Furei Mahei The regiment circled to the Nansha River area south of Teng County to block the defender's reinforcements.??
After making preparations, the 10th Regiment began the attack on the morning of the 16th. First, artillery fire preparations were made. About 30 artillery pieces continuously bombarded the city and the city walls, followed by the 6th Infantry Regiment of Colonel Shimada Takashi stationed at Nanyuan Airport. The bombing brigade bombed Teng County.
The 5 battalions of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army defending the city, led by the division commander General Wang Mingzhang, calmly responded to the battle, and used 1 battalion of Major Yan Yi to defend Dongguan, which was the enemy's key attack, and then transferred two more battalions to Dongguan for reinforcements.
Due to the enemy's continuous fierce attacks, most of the defenders suffered casualties, and Dongguan was captured by the enemy on the evening of the 16th. At this time, the 122nd Division only had 11 companies in the city, and the two battalions that were fighting against the enemy in the Beishahe area in front of the railway in the north of the city were deployed. Enter the city.
When the situation in Teng County was urgent, the 22nd Army immediately organized troops to go for reinforcements and sent a telegram to Wang Mingzhang to defend. On the same day, Tang Enbo's command organization also arrived in Lincheng, and its leading 4th Division had reached Longshan and Hushan to the east of the Nansha River to make contact with the enemy. A brigade of the 89th Division has continued northward from Lincheng to fight against the enemy near the Nansha River.
Regrettably, however, the reinforcements failed to arrive because they were blocked by the enemy's 63rd Regiment and its attached artillery and armored units.
At 2 o'clock in the morning on March 17, the enemy's 10th Regiment opened two gaps in the east wall of Teng County, and then attacked into the city from here, but were repulsed by the defenders. At noon, the enemy used artillery and air force to cover its infantry and continued its fierce attack on the east city. Several places in the city wall were blown down. The Japanese troops poured into the city through these gaps and were repulsed by the heroic defenders.
But the defenders also suffered heavy losses. By the afternoon of the battle, the city of Teng County was defeated. Afterwards, the defenders engaged in hand-to-hand melee combat with the enemy. At this time, in Tengxian County, there were corpses and wounded soldiers of both the enemy and ourselves everywhere.
In this battle, the 122nd Division brigade commanders Wang Zhiyuan and Lu Kang, deputy brigade commander Wang Chaolian, and regiment commander Zhang Xuanwu were all injured successively. Division commander Wang Mingzhang and division chief of staff Zhao Weibin both died in Teng County.
But the problem is that it¡¯s only early March, why did Teng County fall?
At the beginning, Li Guoyao had been thinking that if he waited until the Shandong battlefield became urgent, he would request to be transferred to Lunan, first to participate in the defense of Tengxian County, and then to participate in the defense of Linyi. Of course, the Battle of Taierzhuang should not be missed.
Especially regarding the Sichuan Army's stubborn defense of Teng County, Li Guoyao would not sit idly by and watch. If the people could arrive, he would naturally join the battle directly. If the people could not arrive, he would send someone to send them a batch of weapons and equipment.
Li Guoyao had already thought about this when he was in Wuhan, and planned to implement it when he returned to Quanjiao, but he didn't expect to hear such bad news just after returning to Hefei!
"When did it happen?" Li Guoyao asked in a deep voice.
"Three days ago!"
Li Guoyao did some calculations and found out that three days ago it was February 27th, so the battle to defend Teng County was advanced by a full 20 days!
what is this? The Butterfly Effect?
"Then what do the Military Commission and the Theater Command mean? Are they planning to send our temporary seventh division north to the battlefield in Shandong?" Li Guoyao asked.
Chief Gu looked at Li Guoyao, and then asked with interest: "What do you mean solemnly, are you going or not?"
"Go, you must go! I heard that the Fifth Division of the Little Japs is also in Shandong. It just so happens that our Seventh Division wants to go and meet this elite Japs!" Li Guoyao said decisively, with strong confidence in his tone!
However, Chief Gu smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you this time. In fact, it's the 59th Army and the 31st Army that will be transferred to the Shandong battlefield, not your Seventh Division!"
"Then what are our Seventh Division doing?" Li Guoyao asked with a frown.
"Guard Bengbu!"
