Jinan. Headquarters of the 12th Army.
In the heavily guarded headquarters, Lieutenant General Iida Sadagu was stunned after receiving the news!
The enemy situation report he received a few hours ago was that the Imperial Japanese Army and the Chinese Army were competing in the direction of Huashanzi. The two sides had formed a strategic stalemate. No one could do anything about the other. It was impossible for the Chinese to capture Zaozhuang in a short time.
After a few hours, the branch/person won the county! In this way, the Chinese people could bypass Huashanzi and quickly go northward, arriving at the gate of Zaozhuang.
The most important thing is that once Yixian is lost, Huashanzi, located east of Zaozhuang, can no longer be defended.
If the Chinese army in Yixian County went around behind Huashanzi and cooperated with the troops in front to attack the Japanese army from front to back, the consequences would be disastrous. It can be said that Ma Desheng's roundabout attack hit Iida Sadagu's weak spot, which is necessary to attack the enemy. save.
As a last resort, Iida Sadagu had no choice but to agree with Hyoutaro Kimura's opinion and immediately withdraw the troops on the front line of Huashanzi to Zaozhuang to avoid being surrounded and annihilated later.
Iida Sadagu really didn¡¯t expect that the Chinese army¡¯s attack would be so sharp. Underestimating the enemy, he was defeated by a good hand on the battlefield on the east bank of Weishan Lake.
According to Iida Sadagu¡¯s estimation, given the strength of the Chinese army, as long as there are sufficient troops, weapons and ammunition, the Huashanzi front-line position can become the east gate of Zaozhuang.
He also investigated clearly and found out that it was Li Guoyao's troops who attacked Zaozhuang, but the main force of this army was in southern Hebei and western Shandong. There were no more than 5,000 people left in Xiong'er Mountain, so the threat was not great.
But he did not expect that Li Guoyao's troops would use the Japanese army's most commonly used long-distance roundabout attack tactics to completely destroy Kimura Hyoutaro's city defense plan.
Fortunately, there are many Japanese bunker groups outside Zaozhuang City. I hope they can play some role, otherwise Zaozhuang City would be in danger.
When Lieutenant General Iida Sadagu ordered the troops stationed in Huashanzi to withdraw to Zaozhuang, he immediately ordered the 21st Division stationed in Xuzhou to immediately reinforce Zaozhuang.
When they received the order from the legion headquarters again, the Japanese troops in Xuzhou had just completed their assembly. After all, the troops of the 21st Division had only been scattered across northern Jiangsu before, and they had only received the order to assemble in Xuzhou yesterday.
Anyway, they have finally gathered more than 7,000 people, including 5,000 infantry, divided into two infantry regiments that are not full of personnel. In addition, there is also a cavalry regiment and an artillery regiment, all of which are not full of personnel.
Then, under the command of the Chief of Staff of the 21st Division, these troops set off from Xuzhou and went straight to Zaozhuang.
Originally, they planned to take a train, get off the bus via Xuecheng, and then walk from Xuecheng to Zaozhuang. In this way, they could reach Zaozhuang in more than two hours at most.
But what is irritating is that the railway line between Xuecheng and Xuzhou was destroyed in many places, and even several extremely important railway bridges were blown up. Taking the train was naturally impossible. There was no other way, so they had to I can now take the highway from Yixian County to Zaozhuang.
Moreover, now that the Chinese army has captured Yixian County, the factories and mining companies controlled by the Co., Ltd. in the north of Yixian County are also in urgent need of rescue. Therefore, Iida Sadagu and Sakai Hoji discussed it and decided to let the troops capture Yixian County and the city first. The safety of the imperial business owners outside the country is guaranteed.
After all, the masters standing behind those people can¡¯t even afford to offend the base camp, let alone front-line generals like them!
However, neither Iida Sadagu nor Sakai Hoji knew that there was a powerful force waiting for them to surrender on the way to Yi County.
Shan County. 112th Division Headquarters!
After hearing the report from the chief of staff that the 4th Security Brigade had withdrawn to Shanxian County, Huo Shouyi sighed, feeling extremely aggrieved.
This single county is the main battlefield on the southern front of southwest Shandong. The total number of national troops here is close to 40,000, while the opponents only have 6,000 or 7,000.
Such a disparity in strength was originally their opportunity. After all, their strength was six times that of their opponent. Huo Shouyi had never fought such a wealthy battle several times.
But the result was shocking. In the face of the powerful Japanese offensive, even the defenders with fortifications were of little use!
Half of the defense line outside the city was conquered in one day, and the defenders suffered heavy losses. On the 23rd alone, more than 3,000 defenders were killed, and more than 5,000 soldiers were injured. Direct battle losses of nearly 1,000 soldiers. Eight thousand.
As for the Japanese army, they conquered 6 lines of defense in succession and suffered very little losses. On the contrary, due to their successive victories, their sluggish morale was rejuvenated!
Especially the 17th Division, which was half-disabled by Li Guoyao some time ago, suddenlyIt seems that he has become a sperm, which is extremely powerful.
Mr. Huo himself was a little confused. What kind of bullshit war was he fighting? Forty thousand people beat thousands of others, but they were chasing him away. This reminded him of what happened after the failure of the Battle of Songhu three years ago. Scenes.
At that time, the main force of the Chinese army was defeated by the Japanese army and had to evacuate from Shanghai to Nanjing. Due to improper command, the entire army was in chaos, and the Japanese army took the opportunity to pursue the Japanese army.
As a result, an unsightly scene appeared. Hundreds of thousands of national troops fled in panic in front, while a small number of Japanese troops continued to pursue them. There was even a bizarre scene of a Japanese infantry squadron chasing and killing a national army division. .
What is even more unbelievable is that along the way from Shanghai to Nanjing, there are many national defense fortifications built with a lot of money by the Nationalist government. If these fortifications are made good use of, even if Nanjing city can be defended, at least it can ease the situation.
With the strength of those defense fortifications, the little devils would not be able to take them down in a short period of time, and they would never be chased all the way to Nanjing.
The scene now is exactly the same as a few years ago, except that this is not Nanjing, but Shan County.
The only good thing is that the well-known Commander Li sent a report to the 112th Division yesterday, asking them to just guard the single county, and they don't need to take care of the rest.
Although he didn¡¯t know what Commander Li could do to get out of the siege, Commander Huo still decided to believe him.
On the one hand, he really has no other choice now. If he retreats further, he will retreat to Dingtao, which is very close to Heze. Once the Japanese troops on the northern front split up and attack them, the consequences will be disastrous.
On the other hand, they cannot withdraw. Once they withdraw, it will be an injustice to the 111th Division on the northern front.
"Besides, he now has 40,000 people in his hands. If he can't defend even a small county, what will the superiors think of him?
Incompetent or incompetent?
Therefore, regardless of whether there is Li Guoyao's telegram or not, Mr. Huo's bottom line is Shan County!
It's just that Li Guoyao's telegram gave Commander Huo a lot of courage. Over the years, they and others have been very familiar with Li Guoyao, a rising star. As a mere major staff officer, he turned the tide and left a ray of fire for the 67th Army. Those real Northeast soldiers The military elders were very grateful to Li Guoyao.
In fact, when Li Guoyao's unit was expanded into the B Brigade, Yu Xuezhong and others discussed transferring him to several armies under the Northeast Army, training him well, and then entrusting him with important tasks.
However, before they could take action, Li Guoyao emerged as an unparalleled national warrior and then conquered all the world!
Looking back, Li Guoyao has already reached the rank of lieutenant general, and has gained such a great reputation that he no longer needs their protection!
Mr. Huo has no reason not to believe in the promise of such a capable God of War figure!
Since Li Guoyao asked them to defend Shan County, Commander Huo should defend it well. After discussing with Li Weiwei, the commander of the 117th Division, Commander Huo decided to withdraw half of his troops to Dingtao behind and build fortifications there to prevent the North from attacking. The Japanese troops on the southern front suddenly moved south, and they also prevented the Japanese troops on the southern front from making a big detour and cutting off their retreat.
The remaining troops will continue to stay in Shan County. Even if they fight to the last man, they must guard this place and wait for the good news from Commander Li!
