Chapter 97: Huang Haoran who was forced out of the fire
7.97 Huang Haoran who was forced out of the fire
On the morning of the next day, the 63rd Infantry Wing of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army launched another fierce attack on Taierzhuang, in order to cooperate with Fukuei Zhenpei's revenge operation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Major General Kei Seya's 63rd Infantry Wing was equipped with a heavy machine gun brigade, two squadrons of light and heavy armored vehicles, two squadrons of field artillery and two 15-cm howitzers.
Furong Zhenping Dazuo took Taierzhuang as soon as possible to avenge the attack last night. As soon as he came up, he put on a desperate posture. The Furong Wing first bombarded the city wall of Taierzhuang with 15 cm heavy artillery for half an hour, and then rushed into the village through the gap in the city wall that was blown open. The 31st Division of Zhuang did not expect that the Japanese army launched a desperate attack without a tentative attack, and was attacked by the Furong Wing to break through the north gate of Taierzhuang.
The 31st Division and the 63rd Wing engaged in a tug-of-war at Shonai, and fierce fighting lasted all morning, with heavy casualties on both sides. In the afternoon, the Japanese 5th Division continued to increase its strength, and more than 4,000 reinforcements from Isoya Ryosuke from Yixian rushed to Taierzhuang to participate in the battle. Chi Fengcheng, the commander of the 31st Division, had to draw troops from various positions and rush to the north gate to fill the gap.
Under the stubborn resistance of the Chinese defenders in Taierzhuang, the Japanese army rushed into the village again and again, but was repelled by the Chinese defenders again and again. Sometimes just to fight for a courtyard or a house, the defenders of Taierzhuang and the Japanese army can fight many times. Until the corpses are piled up in the courtyard, the two sides are still fighting to the death!
Huang Haoran, who was in the former enemy headquarters, felt the fierceness of the battle in Taierzhuang from the telegram sent to him by Chi Fengcheng.
The fierce battle continued into the evening, and the Japanese suffered heavy casualties, and for a while they were unable to gather forces to continue the siege. However, relying on the fact that they had the 1st Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery to assist in the battle, the Japanese army used artillery to bombard the positions around Taierzhuang at night. By midnight, there had been as many as six or seven thousand shells falling on the land of Taierzhuang; The Japanese Army Aviation also carried out night bombing unusually, and Japanese fighters threw a large number of flares, creating conditions for the Japanese bombers who followed up to bomb at night. Under the repeated bombardment of Japanese planes and artillery, the Chinese defenders in Shonai almost spent a sleepless night!
Simply because the sappers of the 25th Group Army have been operating in Taierzhuang for a long time, the core position of the defenders has not been destroyed by the Japanese army, so Chi Fengcheng also specially called Huang Haoran to express his gratitude.
"Bench! You're like a god! If it weren't for those sappers of yours, my 31st Division would have suffered great losses tonight! Now that the reserves are all in the fortifications of Zhuangzi on the south bank of the canal, the devil's aircraft and artillery will not be able to work hard! ”
Chi Fengcheng on the other end of the phone seemed to be in a very good mood, which made Huang Haoran feel very relieved. Huang Haoran has put so much effort into Taierzhuang and invested so much manpower and material resources, if the 31st Division of Chifeng City still suffered heavy losses as soon as it came up like in history, then Huang Haoran would be too wronged!
"Fengchen, you can't underestimate the enemy, the strength of the 10th Division is still very strong, you also know that the war zone is to fight a war of annihilation in Taierzhuang, the cooperation and coordination between the various departments is very important, if there is a slight difference in the middle, you will have to prolong the days of holding out in Taierzhuang, so you must pay attention to preserving troops, and there must be a level when investing, no matter how the friendly army progresses, you have to plan for the worst here......"
Huang Haoran was worried that Chi Fengcheng was too optimistic and relaxed his guard, so he had to say a few ugly words to cool down Chi Fengcheng's fiery mind.
Chi Fengcheng on the other end of the phone obviously realized Huang Haoran's hard work, and he said loudly: "Thank you for your concern!" I have already ordered several regiments in Zhuangzi to leave only a small number of troops on the first line to fight against the Japanese army on the first line, and leave more reserves on the second line to fight a counterattack! Several regiments outside the village will also actively participate in the battle, dragging out the hands and feet of the Seya detachment! Our department will definitely be able to hold out until Commander Tang's 20th Army Corps attacks from behind the Japanese army, please rest assured! ”
Listening to Chi Fengcheng say some words of determination on the phone, Huang Haoran sighed in his heart!
Chi Feng Cheng still thinks highly of Tang Enbo!
Not only Chi Fengcheng, but even Sun Lianzhong and Chief Li all thought that in the face of the overall situation of the Battle of Taierzhuang, as long as the 5th Theater gave the 20th Army Corps some pressure, Tang Enbo would still send troops, at most it would be delayed for a day and a half.
What makes Huang Haoran feel very worried now is. At present, most of the senior generals in the 5th theater of operations think that Tang Enbo will not have the courage to joke about the success or failure of the battle of Taierzhuang. You must know that the highest authorities have just shot Han Fuqu, deputy commander of the 5th Theater and chairman of Shandong Province, even if Tang Enbo is favored in front of the highest authorities, watching Han Fuqu's bloody example will become more restrained, right?
The generals of the 5 theater of operations have miscalculated! They underestimated Tang Enbo's "determination" to preserve his strength! If Tang Enbo is not forced to a corner, the 20th Army Corps, which is huddled in the mountains of Baoqinggu, will definitely not attack!
Huang Haoran, who was holding the microphone, looked a little gloomy. Although he knew very well what kind of immoral thing Tang Enbo would do next, he couldn't say it! This feeling made Huang Haoran feel very aggrieved!
There's no way, after all, it's something that hasn't happened yet, Huang Haoran can't say that he calculated it himself, right?
"Excellent! Fengchen, I believe in you! You and your 31st Division will definitely go down in history with Taierzhuang! ”
Although this sentence may sound exaggerated to Chi Fengcheng, what Huang Haoran said is the truth. Chi Fengcheng and his 31st Division did become famous after the Battle of Taierzhuang, but the price they paid was that the officers and men of the division were almost completely killed and wounded......
"Thank you for the encouragement! All the officers and men of Chifeng City and the 31st Division will not be dishonored! ”
When Chi Fengcheng finally said this, Huang Haoran heard the sound of an explosion from the earpiece again. Huang Haoran knew that this was the Japanese artillery, and they were "showing" their rich shells to the defenders of Taierzhuang. At the thought of Ryosuke Isoya and Kei Seya, they might be hiding in their division headquarters and brigade headquarters, holding binoculars and watching the artillery fire in the night. The anger in Huang Haoran's heart suddenly rose!
After hanging up the phone, Huang Haoran found Fan Jie, and he said to Fan Jie: "Chief of Staff Fan, listen!" What has become of the little devil's artillery? Didn't Sun Lianzhong already have a cannon in his hand? Why not fight back? ”
Fan Jie knew that Huang Haoran was on fire now, although he didn't know what Huang Haoran was angry about, but he knew that he had to avoid Huang Haoran's anger.
"Deputy seat, the little artillery in Commander Sun's hand is to be used on the blade, where is he willing to take it out now? Besides, we don't have the help of the Air Force, and there is no way to calibrate the shells that go out! You can't let the artillery empty the cannon and spoil the shells, right? ”
Fan Jie's reason is very sufficient, and he also takes care of Huang Haoran's emotions, if Fan Jie's direct statement that the Chinese artillery in Taierzhuang is not the opponent of the Japanese artillery, it is likely to make Huang Haoran angry and give the order for a full-scale artillery battle. The reason why the artillery did not return fire was said to be to preserve its strength to deal with the frenzied attack of the Japanese army tomorrow would obviously make Huang Haoran more willing to accept it.
It's a pity that Fan Jie also underestimated this evil fire in Huang Haoran's heart tonight, Huang Haoran has already transferred his resentment towards Tang Enbo to the Japanese artillery on the other side, and he has to breathe a sigh of relief now!
"Send a telegram to Shi Cannon! Ask him if there is a way to get the devil's artillery! Didn't the 121st Division get several 15-cm howitzers for the artillery regiment back? Don't wait until now!? ”
Fan Jie smiled, turned around and picked up the phone to tell Shi Jincai about Huang Haoran's anger. Originally, Fan Jie thought that Shi Jincai would definitely push three or four, but he didn't expect Shi Jincai to agree after listening to the relay of the mortal world, and his attitude and tone were clearly like he had been looking forward to it for a long time!
"Take a seat! Just let the commander take a look! In an hour, I'll keep the devil artillery to stop! It's just ......"
When Fan Jie heard Shi Jincai's last elongated tone, he knew that Shi Jincai, the commander of the artillery regiment, had to talk about conditions again, and among the officers of the 25th Group Army, except for Shen Laoer, the most slippery person was Shi Jincai!
Of course, this is just Fan Jie's personal opinion, according to the recognized ranking within the 25th Group Army, Fan Jie's ranking is still in front of Shen Laoer, and he has secured the throne of "champion". In fact, this ranking is still inaccurate, mainly because the officers of the 25th Group Army did not have the courage to put Huang Haoran, the big man, in the ranking, which made Fan Jie's "champion".
"Head Shi, if you have any requirements, just say it, I will try my best to meet you! It's really not good, isn't there still a commander? ”
Huang Haoran heard Fan Jie talking into the microphone, thinking that Shi Jincai was unwilling to carry out the order, so his face became even more ugly! He waved his arms and said loudly to Fan Jie, who was standing next to the phone, "You tell Shi Cannon!" As long as he can teach the devil's artillery a good lesson, he will give whatever he wants! Double-double the cannonballs that were fired tonight when they are collected! If you don't play well..... Hum! Lao Tzu removed him! ”
When Huang Haoran spoke, Fan Jie not only did not cover the microphone of the phone, but he also deliberately moved the microphone in the direction of Huang Haoran. The result of Fan Jie's doing this was that Shi Jincai on the other end of the phone heard what Huang Haoran said clearly!
Shi Jincai didn't expect Huang Haoran to stand next to Fan Jie, but now that he heard Huang Haoran's somewhat angry voice, Shi Jincai was so frightened that he bounced up from the chair! He first "snapped" and stood upright, then straightened his waist and said loudly into the telephone microphone: "Yes!" Follow the Commander's instructions! Mission completion guaranteed! After that, he didn't dare to speak, just waited for a response from the other end of the phone.
Fan Jie's big talk with the help of Huang Haoran's power successfully solved Shi Jincai's little slippery head, he held the microphone in his hand and imagined Shi Jincai's panicked appearance on the other end of the phone, and his face bloomed with happiness.
After calming down his emotions for a while, Fan Jiecai continued: "Captain Shi! Don't be too restrictive, if you have difficulties or any legitimate requests, you can still make them! It's not unreasonable... Commander, he cares about your artillery regiment very much! ”
Fan Jie's words are to prevent Shi Jincai from rushing into battle to cause losses to the artillery regiment, the 25th Group Army only has such an artillery regiment, and it is not easy to get a little fatter, if he suffers losses, Huang Haoran will kill people afterwards!
"Counselor, can you let Sun Lianzhong's 2nd Army's troops on the outskirts of Taierzhuang be our observers? As you know, this cannon is not like a rifle, the artillery can't adjust it if they can't see the impact point, and my men are all on the south bank of the canal, so there's really no way! ”
Shi Jincai thought about it, but still put forward his request, now it is not a few hours before dawn, because the Chinese army does not have an air force to help the war, if you want to start an artillery battle with the devil, you can only use this time at night. It is definitely too late to send observers from the artillery regiment to the front line, and the most reliable way at the moment is to borrow the troops of the 2nd Group Army on the outskirts of Taierzhuang to use them as eyes for the artillery regiment!
"Deputy seat, it seems that you have to come out in person for this matter, Sun Lianzhong will not buy my Fan Jie's account. I also have an idea, it's best to let the artillery of the 2nd Army also participate in the battle, anyway, if you want to show your strength, you might as well give the devil a hard time! ”
Fan Jie covered the microphone of the phone and turned around to relay to Huang Haoran the difficulties encountered by the artillery regiment, and also provided a solution by the way. Fan Jie basically agreed with Shi Jincai's idea, and in order to let Sun Lianzhong's 2nd Army use all the solutions, Fan Jie also proposed that the artillery in Sun Lianzhong's hands should also be tied to the chariot.
The cannons in Sun Lianzhong's hands were all obtained with Huang Haoran's help, even if Huang Haoran was not the former enemy commander-in-chief of the Battle of Taierzhuang, the 2nd Group Army still had to give this face!
Huang Haoran nodded and accepted Fan Jie's proposal. After Fan Jie got Huang Haoran's reply, he let go of the hand holding the microphone, and said with a smile to Shi Jincai on the other end of the phone: "The commander agreed!" Commander Shi, you are waiting for news at your regiment headquarters! ”
************************************************
Pi County, Headquarters of the 2nd Army.
The battle situation on the periphery of Taierzhuang has always affected Sun Lianzhong's heart, the 2nd Group Army has already bet all the money on Taierzhuang, if this one cannot win, the 2nd Group Army as bait will definitely suffer heavy losses! Sun Lianzhong didn't want this to end up like this anyway.
"Commander! Fengtai's telegram arrived, and the troops in Zhuangzi fought with the devils for a day, suffering more than 1,000 casualties. It's only the first day! Isn't it too ......."
The person who spoke was Feng Anbang, commander of the 43rd Army. The 27th Division and the 44th Independent Brigade under the jurisdiction of the 43rd Army successively went to the Taierzhuang area, and the 44th Independent Brigade participated in the sniper operations on the periphery of Taierzhuang together with the 31st Division. In order to facilitate command and reduce intermediate links, Sun Lianzhong canceled the command headquarters with the rank number of the army in accordance with Huang Haoran's order, and directly commanded the 30th and 27th divisions. Feng Anbang, who had no troops in his hands, became the commander of the light pole, and was called by Sun Lianzhong to the headquarters of the group army to "sit in town".
Although Chi Fengcheng's 31st Division was subordinate to Tian Zhennan's 30th Army, it was not a subordinate unit of Feng Anbang's 43rd Army. Feng Anbang was still very concerned about Chifeng City's troops.
The 2nd Group Army has been sharply reduced to the size of three divisions and one brigade under the repeated compression and adjustment of the Military Commission. If there are large-scale casualties, I am afraid that the Military Commission will take the opportunity to compress Sun Lianzhong's troops into one army! The downgrading of the troop establishment level will inevitably lead to the adjustment and compression of personnel, if Sun Lianzhong becomes the army commander, then what will Feng Anbang and Tian Zhennan do? You can't let them and their division commanders grab positions, right?
Feng Anbang has an opinion on Chief Li's practice of first handing over the 31st Division to Tang Enbo, and later transferring the 31st Division to Huang Haoran's subordinates. In his opinion, it's not a good thing that Chi Fengcheng and the Central Army are too close! Feng Anbang also reminded his commander Sun Lianzhong many times, but Sun Lianzhong was dismissed every time. Now we see the huge casualty figures reported every day by the troops invested by the 2nd Army in Taierzhuang. Feng Anbang had a sense of crisis in his heart! He felt that his fears were becoming a reality step by step!
"Commander Feng, I know you are for the good of the 2nd Army! But I don't think Huang Haoran is the kind of person who is treacherous, you still don't think too much! ”
Sun Lianzhong knew very well what Feng Anbang was thinking, Sun Lianzhong also had similar worries when Chief Li handed over the 31st Division to Tang Enbo at the beginning, but since the 31st Division was assigned to Huang Haoran's command, Sun Lianzhong's heart seemed much more relaxed!
What the 25th Group Army did after it arrived in the 5th Theater is obvious to all, and the attitude of the miscellaneous generals in the 5th Theater towards Huang Haoran has gradually changed from resistance and rejection at the beginning to acceptance and closeness! Liu Zhaomu, the general of the Sichuan Army, stood up and said that the rumors that the 25th Group Army likes to annex miscellaneous cards have been self-defeating, and Huang Haoran has been in the 5th War Zone in the past few days, in addition to fighting devils is to help the miscellaneous army, even the domineering Tang Enbo was reprimanded by Huang Haoran, and there was no more blood on the periphery of Taierzhuang!
Sun Lianzhong felt that if the Central Army was full of generals like Huang Haoran, the relationship between the miscellaneous army and Wuhan might be much better.
Not to mention that Huang Haoran specially transferred artillery and chariot units to the 2nd Group Army, such treatment is not even enjoyed by ordinary Central Army!
"Commander! It's not like I'm spending the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain! The attitude of the highest authorities towards our ragtag army is clear! After all, Huang Haoran is a general from Huangpu, can he not listen to the words of the highest authorities? I'm afraid that the closer we get to Huang Haoran, the hardest we will be bitten in the future! ”
Feng Anbang still insisted on his idea and was not optimistic about the relationship between the miscellaneous army and the central army. Nothing is unilateral, and the grievances between the Wuhan government and local powers are not solely unilateral to the highest authorities. While the Central Army does not trust the miscellaneous army, there are also generals like Feng Anbang who have no good impression of the Central Army.
"Commander Feng! The more you talk, the more unspeakable you get! What time is it? At the time of national calamity, the survival of the nation! A lot of things are out of the question! What we need now is to work together! Defeat the Isoya Division on the opposite side! No matter how much you say, it's not in vain that you can't win the battle!? ”
Sun Lianzhong's words were more serious, Feng Anbang was a little speechless for a while, and at this time, the director of the confidential office of the 2nd Group Army walked in with a telegram.
"Commander! Yellow sub-seat emergency! ”
