Chapter 1021: The bloody battle at Loushanguan (Part 2)

Xue Yue, the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Defense Line of the Central Army, fought the first battle in front of Loushanguan quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly. In one and a half hours, he ended the battle neatly. When the main force of the Japanese army arrived, they only saw

On the battlefield after the war, there were more than a thousand corpses of soldiers.

Suzuki Division Commander, after hearing the Chief of Staff's judgment, opened his eyes wide and shouted in disbelief: "Hani? Impossible, a regiment, the entire army was wiped out, no one survived, absolutely impossible, the Chinese government army has no

With such combat power, a large number of search troops were immediately dispatched to find the whereabouts of the Nomura Regiment, and the radio station had to keep calling until it was found."

The chief of staff swallowed hard. He really wanted the division commander to personally go to the foot of the mountain where the corpses of the imperial soldiers were piled. He had annihilated more than a thousand imperial soldiers in hand-to-hand combat and the rest could still survive.

Is there any hope? However, seeing the Suzuki division commander almost collapse, the chief of staff still issued a search order.

In fact, Suzuki has basically believed the judgment of the chief of staff, but what about the remaining more than 2,000 people? Where have they gone? There is a saying in China, "If you are alive, you will see the person, if you are dead, you will see the corpse." He held on to a glimmer of hope, even though this

Hope was very slim in his heart, but he still hoped for a miracle.

At about three o'clock in the middle of the night, most of the search troops had returned. Without exception, they brought news that made Suzuki despair. These small Japanese search troops were very cautious and only searched for shelling.

area, as for the Loushanguan Highlands, I have not set foot on it at all.

Loushanguan in the night looked like a dark beast, seeming to devour these foreign enemies. The Japanese soldiers were all hairy when they saw it. In fact, most of them believed that the Nomura Regiment had been wiped out. They looked at nothing else but the numbers.

The unclear craters, broken pieces of clothing, and weapons broken into pieces are enough to prove everything.

The bright flashlights all over the mountain had already alerted the soldiers of the Central Army on the top of the mountain. The commander made a call to the headquarters. As soon as Xue Yue lay down to rest, he was called up by the staff officer on duty. He took the phone and spoke in a calm tone.

asked: "Are there any defenders on the main peak of Loushanguan? What happened?"

"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, I am Dai Anming, commander of the 233rd Division of the Fourth Group Army's main position at Loushanguan. A large number of Japanese troops were found in the forward position. It should be that the main force of the Japanese army has arrived. However, they seem to be in the area after our shelling.

What are you looking for? There are flashlights all over the mountain. Please ask the commander-in-chief if our division should go down the mountain to kill this guy?" Dai Anming said excitedly. In his opinion, this was a golden opportunity.

Xue Yue was slightly tempted by Dai Anming's idea and asked hurriedly: "You see clearly, the main force of the Japanese army has arrived. How many Japanese troops are searching the mountain? Are they close to the forward position? Are there any signs of a large-scale attack? I

To know the real situation.”

Dai Anming's excited voice poured into Xue Yue's ears, "The commander-in-chief is the main force of the Japanese army. There are many vehicle lights and the sound of tank motors. In addition, based on the flashlight light, no more than two people will enter our shelling area."

Thousands of people, and they are scattered over a wide area.”

Xue Yue couldn't believe his luck. No matter what tricks the Japanese tried, if he didn't take a big bite of the fat meat that was brought to his mouth, he would be sorry for this opportunity. He was determined to fight and said seriously: "Okay, I will

Order your division to dispatch two regiments to covertly engage the enemy from both directions. Remember, the fight will only last for twenty minutes. After twenty minutes, you must withdraw to the main peak position. You must not be reluctant to fight. The Japanese army's artillery preparation time will not

It’s more than thirty minutes, is it clear?”

Dai Anming was happy and said: "Commander-in-Chief, just look at it. I will personally lead the team to go there. We don't need guns, just use grenades to kill these little devils." Xue Yue put down the phone and immediately walked to the observation hole of the command headquarters.

, pointed the telescope lens at the dark mountains. From his angle, he could not directly see the upcoming battle, but it did not hinder his judgment of the battlefield situation.

More than twenty minutes later, a dull explosion came from a distance, and the fire caused by the explosion could be vaguely seen. Xue Yue listened carefully. After the explosion, he heard the unique "click" sound of the Japanese 38-gun.

Dai Anming exchanged fire with the Japanese army. Xue Yue stared at his watch. Sure enough, twenty minutes later, no explosions were heard. After a while, the gunfire gradually subsided.

Xue Yue nodded with satisfaction. Dai Anming was still very sensible and did not greed for more. If he was entangled by a large Japanese army or covered by Japanese artillery fire, the loss would be great. The phone on the table suddenly dinged rapidly.

rang, Xue Yue grabbed the phone, "Commander, it's so enjoyable.

More than 4,000 brothers, each with five grenades, were thrown out one after another. The little Japs were thrown on their backs, blood and flesh were flying everywhere, and they were beaten hard. A conservative estimate is that at least a thousand people were left in front of our position. We were not killed, only

More than thirty injured." Dai Anming shouted in a loud voice.

Xue Yue gave a high five and said: "Okay! Master Dai, brothers, thank you for your hard work. Get some rest. There will be a fierce battle tomorrow. Pay attention to the movements of the Japanese army. Don't be careless. Report any situation at any time. I'll call for your 2, 3, 3 divisions."

achievement."

Saburo Suzuki went crazy. Within twenty minutes, several search troops were blown up by sudden grenades. After the main force surrounded them, these Chinese government soldiers disappeared into the night like ghosts.

The Nomura Alliance failed to find it, and more than a thousand people were brought in.

Suzuki's mood at this time can only be described as wanting to eat people. He was so unlucky that he joined a multi-unit regiment before the war officially started. He was sure that the Nomura regiment was finished, and the Chinese government troops had troops at Loushanguan.

They were tightly deployed and ready, but where did the fighting power of the Chinese soldiers come from?

Unable to find the answer and suffering losses one after another, Suzuki was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. The confidential staff officer ran over, handed him a telegram with both hands, and said: "Your Excellency, the division commander, there is a call from the headquarters of the dispatched army, asking you to read it in person."

Saburo Suzuki took the telegram and read it, his nose almost twisted with anger, "Commander Suzuki Division, your troops have arrived in front of Loushanguan, why haven't you launched an attack immediately? If you can't complete the combat tasks assigned by the headquarters on time, the consequences will be for you."

I know. Besides, what was the result of the Nomura Regiment? Why didn't you report it? The signature is General Touichi Terauchi."

Papers full of accusations and questions made Saburo Suzuki furious. He tore up the telegram several times. Like a wounded wolf, he yelled "Baga". He was very angry. The old guy Juichi Terauchi was not far away from Loushanguan.

more than one hundred kilometers

, you don’t understand the situation, so you force me to attack. The enemy’s situation is unknown, and it’s dark. Can this battle be fought? If you hadn’t pressed hard, I wouldn’t have been able to join a regiment of troops, even the Chinese government soldiers.

No shadow was seen.

He shouted loudly, "Call back to the headquarters." The confidential staff officer standing nearby shivered in fright, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, the Nomura Regiment of our division will advance to Loushan on time at six o'clock yesterday evening."

In front of the pass, however, because the regiment leader Nomura underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, he fell into the encirclement of the Chinese government troops, and everyone was shattered."

"Based on the situation on the battlefield, the Chinese government forces have deployed a tight defense line at Loushanguan. If they launch an attack rashly and the artillery fire is not prepared in time, our imperial army is not good at fighting at night. If the Chinese soldiers occupy favorable terrain, the casualties will be huge.

Our division has decided to carry out a devastating blow to the Chinese government troops at Loushan Pass after dawn, and also to build up positions for the artillery and gain time," the signature was Saburo Suzuki.

Suzuki went all out. This old bastard knew how to order an attack without even asking about the actual situation. My artillery had just been unloaded from the tractor, and there were quite a few tanks. Is it possible to climb a mountain? To attack a stronghold in this way.

In the China government army position, the Suzuki Division must be crippled. I am disobedient and disrespectful. The worst I can do is quit being this arrogant division commander. It is better to break the jar and throw it away than to order the soldiers to destroy it needlessly.

After receiving a call back from Saburo Suzuki, Juichi Terauchi was also shocked. Before the fight even started, a regiment was gone. Suzuki was very angry. It was only two or three hours before dawn, so he would forgive him this time.

Juichi Terauchi chose to compromise and forgave Suzuki for his rudeness and disobedience. However, who knew the anxiety in my heart? I pressed my hands on Chongqing and my heart was worried about Nanning. That China devil Tang Qiuli had caused such a big disaster in the direction of Nanning.

The movement forced me to return troops to reinforce Nanning and relieve the siege of Chongqing. Therefore, time is precious for the southern dispatched troops. Temple Shouichi felt a severe headache in his head.

Tang Qiuli, who was commanding the troops in Wu Ming and gradually compressing the Japanese encirclement in Nanning, received the information that Xue Yue won the first battle at Loushanguan and annihilated a Japanese regiment more than an hour later. He was also very happy. Xue Yue was better than

Gu Zhutong is that idiot. This victory can at least help the Central Army resist for one more month. Is he confident enough?

Chief of Staff Chang Feng looked very happy at Tang Qiuli and reminded: "Commander, are you sending a congratulatory telegram to the National Government and Xue Yue in your name?"

Tang Qiuli shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, Chairman Chiang thinks that I am almost the same as the Japanese. Finally, we have a Xue Yue who can fight. Don't let our good intentions go astray. He was originally

They were paranoid, thinking that if I was thinking about Xue Yue, wouldn't it make Chairman Jiang sleepless? Let's not do this thankless task!" Tang Qiuli and Chang Feng laughed at the same time.

On August 11, as soon as the sky brightened, Xue Yue, who had only slept for less than three hours, was the first to arrive at the forward headquarters. The fog in the mountains around Loushanguan was like a dream, and it had not yet dissipated.

In the quiet scenery of northern Guizhou in the early morning, a large fire suddenly flashed in the mist, and then, a thunderous sound rippled in the early morning air.

Xue Yue tightened his fist, and the Japanese army began to attack. Judging from the intensity of the bombardment, there were at least more than a thousand artillery pieces. As soon as the Japanese army took action, it came with a thunderous blow.
