Lost the first battle of the bloody battle with Siping

Outside Siping City, after a day and night of bloody fighting, under the attack of superior troops and firepower, the Siping Japanese garrison commander detailed the three garrison regiments of the Kwantung Army deployed outside Siping City, together with the two Manchurian military divisions.

The 15,000-strong army was successfully wiped out...

Faced with the huge result of annihilating 15,000 defenders, the 2nd and 3rd armies of the Dongye First Corps, totaling 50,000 troops, were enveloped in a relaxed and confident atmosphere. Of course, inside the former enemy headquarters outside Siping City, there were also

Surrounded by a relaxed atmosphere.

"Commander...according to the latest situation reported by each unit: At present, all combat units have completed the siege of Siping City in accordance with the orders of the former enemy headquarters. All artillery units are fully prepared. As long as you issue the siege order

According to the order, the artillery unit can launch the most violent artillery bombardment at the predetermined target at any time..." Inside the former enemy headquarters, the combat staff said to the confident commander Sun Xingbang in front of him.

"Commander Wang, how is the morale of the troops now?" Commander Sun Xingbang did not look back in response to the combat staff's report. A pair of eyes were still staring motionlessly at the Siping City wall not far away, which had been completely covered by gunpowder smoke.

, asked rhetorically to the combat staff officer behind him.

"After five hours of rest, coupled with the brilliant results achieved by each unit last night, the morale of the soldiers is very high at present, and they all want to be the first to rush into Siping City..." the combat staff quickly reported.

road.

"Okay, very good. Staff Officer Wang, now convey my order: the artillery unit will carry out ten minutes of violent artillery bombardment on all scheduled targets in ten minutes. After that, all attacking troops will immediately launch an siege on Siping City.

Fight, strive to capture the city walls and fortifications in the shortest possible time, and rush into Siping City..." Sun Xingbang gave a decisive order.

"Yes, Commander..."

As the roaring explosions of artillery shells resounded on the battlefield, the battlefield that had been quiet for less than a few hours was once again completely enveloped by the explosions of artillery shells and thick smoke. The majestic city walls and numerous reinforced concrete fortifications of Siping City were also

At the first moment, I was enveloped in intense artillery fire...

Outside Siping City, the four main regiments of the First Corps and the Second Corps, which were responsible for the main attack, immediately attacked themselves like swords unsheathed as soon as the order from the former enemy headquarters was issued.

The target goes straight through...

Unexpectedly, I originally thought that there would be a fierce battle between the defending troops among the cement fortifications surrounding the city wall. However, what was unexpected was that after less than half an hour of attack, each and every one of them saw that

The indestructible cement fortifications were as if they were made of paper under the fierce artillery fire from the two armies. In an instant, they were blown into ruins...

Outside the East Gate City, as the main attack direction of the 11th Regiment, under the continuous blasts and artillery fire from the main attack company, the rows of bunkers have long been turned into ruins. Of course, the first company that served as the main attack also suffered a certain amount of casualties.

.After half an hour of bloody fighting, the total troop strength has changed from more than 120 people at the beginning to less than 100 people now...

"Demoman, come on, blow up the city gate with explosives... All the firepower of the whole company is opened, responsible for covering..." Lying in the ruins less than fifty meters away from the city gate, looking at the distance

Looking at the city gate, company commander Li Shengda gave a decisive order.

"Yes, company commander..."

"Click, click, click...boom, bang, bang..." Under the double cover of machine guns, rifle barrages and the smoke produced by grenade explosions, dozens of demolitioners, holding bundles of explosives, quickly jumped out of the ruins.

He rushed towards the city gate not far away...

To everyone's surprise, dozens of attacking blasters easily rushed into the city gate without much resistance from the Japanese army.

"Boom, boom, boom..." A series of deafening explosions came from the direction of the city gate. As the smoke slowly dissipated, a glimmer of light finally came out of the city gate that was still dark just now.

"Comrades, the city gate has been blown open. Now I order all the commanders and fighters of the first company, starting from me, to immediately launch an attack and rush into Siping. Bugler, blow the charge horn..." The face of company commander Li Shengda,

He immediately showed an excited expression and gave decisive orders to his subordinates, who had less than a hundred people left around them.

"Tick-tick...tick-tock..."

Amidst the loud sound of the charge, nearly a hundred soldiers, headed by company commander Li Shengda, under the cover of a large amount of light and heavy firepower, like a sharp sword unsheathed, rushed towards the blasted city gate.

In the command post of the 11th Regiment directly behind the 1st Pioneer Company, the regiment commander Li Shaohua also immediately discovered the unusual movement of the 1st Company. Seeing the nearly 100 commanders and fighters of the 1st Company launching a desperate charge, when he saw that directly in front of the 1st Company, they had been blown apart.

The face of City Gate Captain Li Shaohua was also shrouded in excitement...

"Chief of Staff, give me an order. The whole regiment, starting from me, will immediately take the first company as the vanguard, launch the final attack on Siping City, and rush into Siping City. In addition, notify the follow-up troops to launch an attack immediately to expand the breakthrough..." The regiment leader

Li Shaohua ordered decisively.

"Yes, leader..."

When more than a thousand men of the 11th Regiment rushed into Siping City through the breach opened by the company, the troops of less than a hundred men from the company had already rushed into the city about two hundred meters under the command of company commander Li Shengda...

..

Looking at the empty streets in front of him and listening to the fierce sound of gunfire behind him, Company Commander Li Shengda sensed something unusual since entering Siping City. He subconsciously waved his hand and ordered his subordinates, who numbered less than a hundred people behind him, to take cover on the spot.

"Company Commander, something seems wrong..." He quickly hid on both sides of the street and found a blind spot in the corner. The deputy company commander who was following Li Shengda frowned and asked.

"I feel it too. According to the report from superiors, there are at least more than 10,000 elite Kwantung Army troops in the entire Siping City. But now, it is so easy for us to rush more than 200 meters into the city... If nothing happens, there are only two possibilities.

"One is that our opponents are preparing to give up Siping. The other is that our enemies have laid a huge trap for us in the city, waiting for us to get in..." Company Commander Li Shengda also frowned.

He asked with an eyebrow.

"Company commander, what should we do next? Should we wait until all the main forces of the regiment enter the city before continuing to attack..." the deputy company commander suggested with a worried look.

"Well... for the lives of nearly a hundred soldiers behind us, let's do this... Now I order the first platoon to continue attacking along the street. If you encounter an ambush by the little devil, retreat immediately. Two, three, two.

A platoon, directly under the fire squad, immediately searched the houses and courtyards on both sides of the street to ensure that there were no ambush troops of little Japs around us..." Li Shengda gave a decisive order.

"Yes, company commander..."

At this moment, what the company commander Li Shengda did not expect was that just because of his caution, he saved the remaining nearly a hundred soldiers of the company at this moment... At the same time, he also prevented the main force of the regiment behind him from being devastated by the Japanese army.

situation…..

"Bang..." The sound of the door being broken rang out on the street. Teams of soldiers in squad units quickly rushed into the room and began to search for possible enemies...

"Da da da... boom boom boom..." Suddenly, groups of soldiers rushed into the rooms on both sides of the street. A series of gunshots and grenade explosions began to sound in the room. Followed closely.

Finally, bursts of shouts of killing reached the ears of company commander Li Shengda...

"No, there really is an ambush... Quick, order the first platoon to retreat immediately. The second and third platoons occupy the yard on the right... You, inform the main force of the follow-up regiment that there is an ambush in front, please be careful..."

As the sound of gunfire rang out, company commander Li Shengda's face immediately turned pale. Then, he gave an urgent order to the deputy company commander beside him...

However, at this moment, the Japanese commander, who knew that the ambush troops had been completely exposed, also immediately issued an order to the troops to launch an attack in advance...

For a time, the street stretching for more than 200 meters was completely enveloped by the sound of gunshots and grenade explosions. Of course, the screams of the soldiers also reached the ears of company commander Li Shengda from behind...

The fifteen-minute ambush ended in the blink of an eye. As the smoke shrouded the streets slowly dissipated, it slowly appeared in everyone's eyes. At this moment, the streets stretching for more than two hundred meters

, everywhere is filled with a strong smell of blood. Of course, the wide streets are already filled with messy corpses of soldiers, densely packed...

On one side of the street, less than 150 meters away from the city wall, in several large courtyards that have been completely opened up. More than a hundred soldiers, under the command of Li Shengda, are using the solid courtyard walls as support to start deploying specific defenses.

Just after the mission was deployed, the deputy company commander appeared in front of Li Shengda with a face filled with smoke...

"Company Commander, all the situations have been investigated clearly. The first and second battalions of our regiment have just broken into Siping City. So far, there are four main companies, except for the 200 people around us.

The remaining more than 300 soldiers were all sacrificed in the battle just now..." the deputy company commander reported with a sad face...

"What, more than three hundred people died... Where is the battalion commander? Where are the company commanders of the 2nd, 34th and 3rd companies? How are they?" After a brief shock, Li Shengda almost grabbed the collar of the deputy company commander in front of him and said,

He roared with despair...

"The battalion commander, instructor, deputy battalion commander, three company commanders, one deputy company commander, and four platoon commanders all died... At present, among the four companies, except for you, there are only three deputy company commanders and nine

Platoon leader. As for the total strength, there are only 206 people left..."

"Little devil, I'll fuck your grandma. As long as I, Li Shengda, don't die, I will definitely pay with blood and avenge my sacrificed comrades... Deputy company commander, comrade, all cadres above the platoon level, all come over for a meeting... If nothing happens,

Now we must be surrounded by the Japs. And we must rely on the existing forces in our hands to persist until the arrival of the main force and avenge the sacrifice of our comrades..." Clenching his fists.

Commander Li Shengda glared at the deputy company commander in front of him with a pair of red eyes and almost roared an order.

"Yes, company commander..."

In less than ten minutes, dozens of platoon-level and above-level cadres gathered around Li Shengda. Seeing the company and platoon-level cadres next to him, who also had smoke in their faces and stared at a pair of red eyes full of hatred. Li Shengda didn't have any doubts.

He hesitated and said straight to the point.

"Comrades, after the battle just now, I believe you have understood our current situation. At present, I am the only company commander here, so in the next time, I will command everyone to hold on to the reinforcements.

Arrival. Now, I will deploy specific combat missions for everyone based on the current enemy situation around us..."

……………

In the former enemy headquarters outside Siping City, as the gunfire in the city slowly stopped, Commander Sun Xingbang also stared at the huge Siping City defense map in front of him with a pair of red eyes...

"Chief of Staff, have all the casualties been counted?" Seeing the Chief of Staff hurriedly walking into the headquarters, Sun Xingbang asked directly...

"The statistics have been calculated, but..." Looking at the angry commander in front of him, the chief of staff replied hesitantly.

"Stop talking nonsense, we have been through ups and downs, can't we still withstand such a little setback? Say..." Sun Xingbang ordered decisively.

"Yes, Commander...according to statistics, among the four main regiments responsible for the main attack, except for the 11th Regiment, which only had four companies of troops, which were trapped in the city and were missing, the remaining three main regiments were trapped respectively.

More than six companies. So far, at least more than 3,600 people have been trapped in the city and are missing..." the chief of staff replied in a low voice.

"More than 3,600 people... In other words, almost two main regiments are just gone... The battle has been going on for such a long time, and 10,000 to 20,000 enemies have been wiped out. Taken together, so many people have not been sacrificed.

.Now, in less than half an hour, two regiments of troops were lost. What the hell kind of war is this? If the Commander-in-Chief finds out, he won’t kill me with one shot...Chief of Staff, what’s next?

What should we do? Has the staff department formulated a new battle plan..." After a burst of angry curses, Sun Xingbang also stared at a pair of eyes that could almost bleed, and asked the chief of staff in front of him.

"Commander, according to the ideas of our staff, it is absolutely impossible for the more than 3,000 people who rushed into the city to be wiped out by the Japs within fifteen minutes. Therefore, our opinion is to strengthen the siege and strive to win the battle within 15 minutes."

In the shortest possible time, we re-entered the city and rescued the soldiers trapped in the city. Then, each unit, in regiment and battalion units, gradually moved toward the city under the cover of heavy artillery such as infantry artillery, mountain artillery, and mortars.

The center advances, continuously compresses the Japanese army's living space, eliminates their effective forces, and finally wins the entire Siping Battle..." The chief of staff pointed to the city defense map in front of him and said.

"You mean to rely on our superior firepower and military strength to fight a street battle with the Japs in Siping City... Okay, that's it. Chief of Staff, immediately follow the combat plan formulated by the staff and send it to all ministries.

Issue the combat order. I just heard that there are still gunfire in the city, which means there are still surviving soldiers in the city. While rescuing all the surviving soldiers, have a good street fight with the little devil to exercise the troops' street fighting ability.

..." Looking at Siping City not far away, which had been completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke and still heard sporadic gunfire, Commander Sun Xingbang gave a decisive order.

"Yes, Commander..."

For a moment, the battlefield that had just ceased fire for less than twenty minutes was once again enveloped by the sound of shell explosions...

In the Kwantung Army Garrison Headquarters in Siping City, the commander, Lieutenant General Xi, had not had time to feel happy about the huge victory he had just achieved. The sound of huge explosions in the direction of the four city gates once again reached his ears. At this time,

At the same time, Chief of Staff Major General Muto also rushed into his office panting, and then reported breathlessly.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the Northeast Field Army outside the city has begun to attack the city again..."

"Bageya Road, are the Northeast Field Army crazy? They just lost more than 3,000 people and they attacked the city again without taking any rest...Don't they plan to rest...bastard..." the commander detailed it.

The lieutenant general asked in confusion.

"Your Excellency, Commander, now is not the time to discuss this... According to the report of the city wall garrison, the artillery fire from the Northeast Field Army outside the city is too fierce. If this continues, there is no need for the Chinese outside the city to attack, we will deploy on the city wall

An infantryman who gets on board will be eaten..." Major General Muto reminded with a worried look.

"Muto-kun, how many troops are there in the city that have not been eliminated by us..." Regarding the chief of staff's concerns, Lieutenant General Detail did not immediately answer. Instead, he continued to ask the chief of staff in front of him.

"According to the report of the 16th Regiment, the total strength of all four Chinese groups is less than 600..." Major General Muto reported quickly.

"Six hundred people...that's all. To use a Chinese saying, 'Keep the green hills there, don't worry about burning without materials.' As long as our troops are there and relying on the intricate street fighting fortifications in the city, we can definitely eliminate the 600 Chinese troops."

There is no problem. Now I order all city defense troops to retreat immediately. According to the planned combat plan, enter the planned street fighting fortifications..." Listening to the roaring explosion of artillery shells, Lieutenant General Detail did not hesitate and gave the order decisively.

"Ha Yi, your Excellency, Commander, is wise..."
