"If we withdraw directly south without attacking Chengde, the Japanese air force will continue to follow us and bombard us indiscriminately. The casualties will be much greater than now. The number of aircraft dispatched will triple to the current number, and there will be no urban buildings.
With the shielding and protection, the efficiency of Japanese bombing will be ten times that of now. Even if the impact of the decline in air defense capabilities is not taken into account, the casualties of our army will reach 30 times of this period, that is, more than 30,000 casualties, and
This is still an underestimated result. What's more, with the same number of casualties, air strikes have a much greater impact on morale than guns and artillery. We have now suffered 20,000 casualties. Can we bear the loss of nearly half of the casualties? In comparison,
Although there will be a lot of losses in attacking Chengde, it will be much smaller after all, and it is better to die on the way to the charge than to be chased and killed by Japanese planes..."
"Isn't it okay to stay in Tianjin for the time being and not go back?" Zhang Hao realized the problem as soon as he spoke the words. If he stayed in Tianjin and didn't leave, the danger would only get worse. Moreover, because of the Red Army's occupation, the citizens of Tianjin
Most of the various daily necessities needed have been cut off, and there are already complaints in the city. If time goes by, some disharmonious incidents will inevitably occur, and the Red Party will lose a lot of ground politically.
Zhang Hao was not an ordinary person either. He quickly turned around and agreed to Hu Weidong's battle plan.
The result was just as Hu Weidong expected. Since the Japanese army was unprepared, the Red Army offensive troops resolutely carried out the order to march day and night. It was not until they were less than 20 miles away from Chengde that the Japanese army finally discovered it, but by this time it was too late. The Red Army
The n main infantry regiments of the 15th Army were dispatched at the same time, and their strength was extraordinary. Even if they did not bring heavy artillery, it was not something that a mere Japanese infantry brigade and several hundred troops directly under the regiment in Chengde City could withstand, especially one with a range of nearly 14 kilometers.
The Type 90 75mm field artillery made even greater contributions. With the observation data sent back by the scouts in the city, more than ten Type 90 field artillery pieces directly fired raindrop-like shells into the Chengde Airport without entering the city. Not long after they were stationed,
Dozens of Japanese aircraft were blown up or burned before they could take off. Only two squadrons escaped because they had already taken off. However, they had no time to bomb the siege Red Army because they lost their foothold. They all flew in a hurry.
At Jinzhou Airport, which is the closest to Chengde, due to the emergency liftoff, most of the fuel did not have time to be filled up. If we delay any longer, the plane will run out of fuel and crash.
In addition to the previous achievements, the Eighth Red Army has destroyed more than a hundred Japanese aircraft (including those on two aircraft carriers). Although there is a lot of luck, Hu Weidong and the Eighth Red Army can still be regarded as the best of the Japanese aviation force.
The number one sufferer. However, although this made Hu Weidong and the Eighth Red Army more famous, it also caused a series of butterfly effects that Hu Weidong could not have expected...
After receiving a distress signal from Chengde, another Japanese brigade stationed in Chifeng rushed to the rescue, but with no city defense to defend, they quickly collapsed under the fire of the Red Army. Although this time, artillery with a caliber of more than 105mm
They didn't even bring them, but in the field, hundreds of mountain artillery and more mortars were enough to make up for the lack of power of a single artillery. What's more, a Japanese infantry brigade was only equipped with a mere 6 infantry cannons. In the Red Army,
In the face of twenty times the strength and fifty times the heavy firepower, no matter how brave the Japanese were, they would still be wiped out quickly. Especially at this time, most of Jinzhou's aviation forces had already transferred here, and new aircraft had not yet been added.
The air support that the Japanese had always regarded as their trump card could not be counted on for a while. This made the Japanese troops inside and outside the city increasingly discouraged. Even though the officers tried their best to restrain them, desperate Japanese soldiers began to abandon their weapons and surrender. However, Hu Weidong believed that this battle must be fought quickly.
A quick decision, and the goal of the operation was only to completely destroy the Chengde Airport so that it could not be repaired in a short period of time. How could there be time to recruit surrender? So, whether the Japanese resisted or did not resist, they were all attacked by artillery fire without mercy.
The machine gun swept directly......
Since the main force of the Japanese army in Chifeng had been eliminated, some first-level cadres of the brigade who felt that it was not enough had suggested to Hu Weidong to attack Chifeng and completely regain Rehe. However, Hu Weidong believed that Chifeng was close to the three eastern provinces and had direct railways, so the Japanese army could attack Chifeng in a short time.
Within a short period of time, the main force of the Kwantung Army stationed in the eastern part of Manchuria to defend against the Soviet Union would be mobilized, and there was more than one Japanese airport in Jinzhou within reach of Chifeng. Naturally, Hu Weidong did not dare to take this risk, so he decided to accept it as soon as possible and take it with him as soon as possible.
The troops returned to the base area for repairs, but he would not refuse to leave more than a hundred military workers to establish the Hebei Reborder Anti-Japanese Base Area. Although the strategic significance of this base area was far from sufficient due to insufficient population.
Compared with the Jidong base area, no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat!
After detonating a total of dozens of tons of explosives to effectively blast various important facilities of Chengde Airport, ensuring that the airport could not be repaired and used for at least a month, Hu Weidong, who was finally relieved, led his troops south to join up with the military commanders who had left Tianjin.
.Although the Red Army was still flying day and night, the reconnaissance efficiency was greatly improved after the Japanese planes locked in a general range. Once the Japanese reconnaissance planes found them, the Japanese fleet would quickly catch wind of them and chase them like crazy.
The Red Army bombed indiscriminately, and the air defense force was naturally the focus of the attack. Even though the newly built camouflage force played a great role, the losses were still increasing rapidly. By the time the two armies met, the Red Army's anti-aircraft guns had been almost completely destroyed, and the anti-aircraft machine guns were only
There was only one machine gun left, and more than 200 light and heavy machine guns that were forced to be temporarily used for air defense were destroyed. The air defense capability plummeted, and the Japanese planes became more and more unscrupulous. The casualties of the Red Army skyrocketed.
When all the troops finally left the combat radius of the Japanese aircraft, the casualties caused by the air raids had exceeded 5,000. Hu Weidong couldn't help but feel grateful for his persistence. If Chengde Airport was still there, then the intensity and efficiency of the Japanese air raids (the difference between mountains and plains)
They are several times higher than now, and last longer. The current 15th Red Army may have been crippled...
However, it was a blessing in disguise. There was only one airport in Jinzhou available for Japanese aircraft. After all, the number was limited. They also focused on chasing the Rehe detachment led by Hu Weidong. Naturally, they could no longer care about other directions. As a result, the heavy artillery at the headquarters of the Eighth Red Army in Tianjin
The tank safely left the combat radius of the Japanese aircraft in Jinzhou without any losses. However, this was also because Hu Weidong boldly ordered the headquarters' mechanized troops to leave Tianjin before the infantry and rushed out of the dangerous area overnight. Even the slowest 240mm heavy artillery
, towed by a special tractor, it is enough to drive more than 100 kilometers along the highway in one night, thus getting rid of the threat of Japanese aircraft...
