The fighting inside the city is in full swing, and the fighting outside the city is singing and crying, and there are mountains of corpses and a sea of blood everywhere. The 27th and 30th Divisions of the Second Army blocked the Japanese army on the flank of Taierzhuang, and cooperated with the troops in the city to defend Taierzhuang.

The positions of the two divisions were set up on the north bank of the canal, and after a battle, the bullets ran out, so they fought with the devils with bayonets in the canal, and they did not retreat. The canal is full of corpses, and it has dyed this thousand-year-old canal red.

Most of the soldiers killed in the battle were blurred in flesh and blood, and they could only distinguish which one was a devil and which one was a comrade-in-arms by their clothes. The brutal battle numbled the soldiers on both sides, and they no longer knew what it meant to be afraid, but they were just blindly fighting.

On the 29th, Isoya led the main force of the division to the south from the vicinity of Yi County, and the Sakamoto Brigade of the Sakagaki Division went south from Linyi and attacked Taierzhuang together.

The Seya Kai Brigade was divided into three routes. Attack the west gate all the way, attack the east gate all the way, and attack the remnants of the city all the way in the middle.

The 31st Division lost most of its losses, but it was still struggling to hold on. Chi Fengcheng had no choice but to ask for reinforcements from Zhang Jinzhao's 30th Division outside the city.

After receiving the order to reinforce Taierzhuang, the commander of the third battalion of the 176th Regiment of the 88th Brigade, Tong Dehou, immediately came to lead the third battalion to Taierzhuang through the south bank of the canal.

When Bai Dehou passed by the south bank of the canal, he found that Yang Hongtao's Sixth Company was resting in that area. Although the soldiers were all dressed as ordinary people, they were all Japanese-style equipment. This made Tong Dehou a little angry, there was a bloody battle ahead, but they were resting here with such good equipment, so they stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?" The equipment is good, picked up on the battlefield, right? ”

Tong Dehou deliberately sneered, Yang Hongtao was a little angry after hearing it, and said: "We are just some idlers who look at the scenery." The equipment was picked up, but before it was picked up, it had to kill the devils! ”

"The hair hasn't grown up, and the tone is not small, so blow it. This is nearly a company of Japanese equipment, how many devils are you going to kill! ”

At this time, Tong Dehou saw the mortar and machine gun not far away, and scolded: "Damn, we are dead on the battlefield, you are good, pick up ready-made!"

Yang Hongtao sneered and said, "So brainless, how did you become the lieutenant colonel battalion commander." A company with such good equipment is stationed, is the 31st Division blind? We were ordered to garrison. The equipment was exchanged for the lives of the warriors! ”

"Who are you scolding!? Come, and take their equipment. Put it here as an ornament, it's better to give it to Lao Tzu to kill devils! ”

His eyes widened. He had already taken a fancy to these equipment, since these people were not the Northwest Army, at most they were popular armed forces and the like. Now that the battle at the front is tight, his battalion needs these heavy equipment, so it is better to take the opportunity to make trouble and tear his face to collect these equipment.

Yang Hongtao did not back down and said, "I want you to try it."

One is to take the opportunity to send difficult equipment; One is that there is a fight without fighting, and there is a fire in his heart. The two faced each other, and the conflict began to escalate.

Bai Dehou shouted: "Someone! Clean up these bunnies and let them see what a regular army is! ”

The soldiers of the third battalion were about to step forward after hearing the order, but they were suddenly stopped by the soldiers of the sixth company raising their guns. The speed of action and the standard of gun movement amazed these soldiers of the Northwest Army. Also, although there were many people in the third battalion, they were inferior in the situation, and a group of people were surrounded.

Yang Hongtao asked, "Do you still want to rob it?"

He smiled bitterly and asked, "Who are you?"

Only then did Tong Dehou realize that he had looked away, and there was a very well-trained army in front of him.

Not long after, Shao Fei came from a distance with a special combat team and asked, "What's going on?"

Yang Hongtao replied: "Big brother, he wants to rob our equipment to kill devils."

Shao Fei looked at Tong Dehou, who was burly and sharp-eyed, like a battle-hardened veteran. Looking at his badge, the unit number and name have long been blurred, and there are blood stains.

Shao Fei said to Tong Dehou: "You are not from the 31st Division, you should be here for reinforcements." Since reinforcements are coming, why are you still wasting time here? ”

He replied, "I'm just curious. The 31st Division is almost gone, why is there still such a good unit, hiding here with such good equipment. ”

Shao Fei smiled and said, "I don't know, you should ask your Chief Li."

"Hahaha" Tong Dehou laughed out loud and said, "Who is Chief Li, who commands hundreds of thousands of troops, and will pay attention to you people."

Shao Fei chuckled and said, "Believe it or not, that's your business."

"Let's go!"

Tong Dehou glanced at Shao Fei, turned around and ordered. He knew that this team was not ordinary, and if it was consumed, not to mention the equipment, it would be himself who would lose face at that time.

"Wait a minute." Shao Fei stopped Tong Dehou and said, "Don't you want equipment?" And so it goes. ”

Bai Dehou turned around a little surprised.

Shao Fei ordered Yang Hongtao: "Except for the equipment configured by the Sixth Company, give them all the rest." I can't go to the battlefield now, so let them get the equipment for me and kill the devils. ”

"Got it."

Yang Hongtao immediately gave the six mortar guns and eight machine guns captured two days ago to Bai Dehou.

Shao Fei looked at the equipment on the ground and said, "We don't have any extra rifles, because we never pick them up."

Tong Dehou smiled: "It seems that I really underestimate you." What is your name? ”

"Shao Fei, what about you?"

"The commander of the third battalion of the 30th Regiment of the 176th Division is Tong Dehou."

Hearing the three words of Bai Dehou, Shao Fei's heart was shocked, and he couldn't react for a while.

"It's all devil killers, so I'll take it unceremoniously."

"Whatever."

Bai Dehou asked someone to put away the equipment, and after thanking Shao Feidao, he quickly rushed to the headquarters of the 31st Division.

Yang Hongtao stepped forward and asked, "Big brother, who is he?" It's shocking to see your expression. ”

"Do you know Scofa?"

"Who doesn't know this, famous hero."

"If he didn't resist and did another Qian Qianyi surrender to the Manchurians, maybe there would be no Yangzhou Ten Days Massacre. Who would you like to be in your place? ”

Yang Hongtao didn't think about it, and said firmly: "I do Shi Kefa, and surrender is a shame for soldiers." Big brother, you said, soldiers must have a backbone, and they can't break their backbones. ”

Shao Fei patted Yang Hongtao and smiled slightly, turned around and walked away. But Yang Hongtao was confused, he didn't know why Shao Fei asked himself this, what did that person have to do with Shi Kefa.

However, Shao Fei knows Tong Dehou very well and the future Shi Kefa. And the future Qian Qianyi is Huang Qiaosong, the commander of the 27th Division of the Second Group Army, who is now fighting bloody battles with devils outside the city.

When Shao Fei was still a scout, he was arguing with his comrades about Bai Dehou and Huang Qiaosong, so he was very impressed by Bai Dehou. Shao Fei also knew that this time Bai Dehou reinforced Taierzhuang will definitely be famous and leave his name in the annals of history.

The focus of the argument between Shao Fei and his comrades-in-arms is whether to surrender or not.

In 48, during the Liberation War, Taiyuan was besieged by the People's Liberation Army, the isolated city was difficult to defend, and the general trend of the Kuomintang was gone. Huang Qiaosong did not want the people of Taiyuan to suffer from the war again, so he wanted to lead all the defenders to surrender to the uprising, and secretly sent people to contact Xu Xiangqian. Xu Shuai agreed with Huang Qiaosong's uprising.

Huang Qiaosong and his old subordinate Dai Bingnan discussed the uprising, and Dai Bingnan agreed on the surface, but he was indecided. After returning home, he discussed with his deputy division commander Tong Dehou, who was righteous and righteous, and surrender was the greatest shame for soldiers. So he ordered his subordinates to control all the regiment commanders and report Huang Qiaosong to Yan Xishan.

In the end, Huang Qiaosong was taken to Nanjing and executed. Bai Dehou led the whole army to defend Taiyuan for 4 months, resulting in 40,000 casualties, 70,000 casualties of the national army, and countless casualties among the people. He was captured and sentenced to 15 years in prison.

Soldiers should have backbone! Because he would rather die than surrender, hundreds of thousands of lives were ruined by future generations, and many people also argued about it.

Right and wrong are at ease in people's hearts, and historical merits are judged by others.
