Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 935

Chapter 935 A great victory!

Yes, victory!

The news that this battle has been completely won came from a telegram sent here from Lucheng!

As the supreme commander who led the first cavalry company and the first special forces squadron to Lucheng for reconnaissance, Special Forces Lieutenant Heizi sent a telegram to the frontline headquarters of the Fourth Army Regiment: After on-the-spot reconnaissance and questioning the people, the four gates of Lucheng were opened, and other All the Japanese invaders in the city fled an hour and a half ago. Because there are traitors in the city who took advantage of the chaos to rob, I want to send all the cavalry into the city. Please approve it, sir!

"Accurate! Order the cavalry company and the special squadron to use extraordinary means in extraordinary times to quell the troublemakers and traitors in the city with thunderous means, but they must not disturb the ordinary people. At the same time, the cavalry, special forces, and communications corps will form three elite combat units. The team will conduct reconnaissance for at least 20 miles in the direction of Changzhi, in case the Japanese army has other plans. The main force of our army will arrive in an hour!" Tang Dao quickly gave Erya an order.

Then, facing hundreds of Chinese officers and soldiers who all looked at him, Tang Dao couldn't help but smile brightly on his resolute face!

After successfully recapturing Licheng, another county town returned to the hands of Chinese soldiers.

But this is not the most important thing.

What is important is the deep meaning behind the Japanese army's escape without a fight.

The Japanese high command stationed in Lucheng chose to flee without fighting. In fact, it was a disguised announcement that the Japanese army chose to face the outcome of this battle that only lasted one day and no longer tried to save the war situation that was already rotten to the core.

When the 683 Brigade started planning this encirclement and reinforcement ambush battle half a month ago, it had already conducted reconnaissance on the establishment and strength of the Japanese troops stationed in Licheng, Lucheng and Changzhi.

Changzhi was called Shangdang in ancient times because it is located at the junction of the three provinces of Shanxi, Hebei and Henan. The entire territory is surrounded by Taihang Mountain and Taiyue Mountain, forming the most important Shangdang Basin in southeastern Shanxi. It was changed to Changzhi in the Ming Dynasty, which means long-lasting peace and stability.

Among the three cities, Changzhi is the largest, followed by the closer Lucheng, and Licheng is the smallest, but Licheng is closer to the big city Linfen, so it is used as a bridgehead by the 108th Division to attack Linfen, and it has a large amount of military supplies; Changzhi is a large city, but close to the border of Henan Province. There are more than 200,000 troops in China's first theater there, so Xiong Yuan placed his division headquarters in Lucheng, between Licheng and Changzhi. This is also the Chinese As the saying goes, 'A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall'!

But Xiong Yuan probably never expected that such a day would come. The danger would not come from Henan Province, a hundred kilometers away, but from the group of 'Tuba' who were hiding deep in the mountains and whom he looked down upon.

There were 1,300 troops stationed in Licheng, with Lucheng having the largest number of nearly 4,000 troops. Changzhi only had an infantry brigade of more than 1,000 people and a baggage train of 500 people. Needless to say, over in Licheng, the 1,300 Japanese troops were almost completely wiped out, and Shentouling and At least 3,000 Japanese troops were wiped out in the two battles at Beiganling, and Xiong Yuan could only muster no more than 2,000 troops at most.

With this small number of troops, it may be enough to defend the city, but if you want to go out and fight with nearly an infantry division in China, whose morale has reached its peak, then Xiong Yuan is really a beetle - just hold on!

That Tang Dao didn't mind at all. Before the main force of his 108th Division was fully assembled, he suggested that Brigadier Cheng gather 10,000 troops for a decisive battle with this tough guy. The newspaper headlines from both sides are perfect for the traffic niche model.

The title of the first Japanese army lieutenant general to die in the Chinese battlefield will always come with BGM when he appears.

Xiong Yuan is scared!

Leading the remaining troops to escape from Lucheng and go to Changzhi, the intention is obvious, just to defend the city.

If the Chinese army really wants to attack Changzhi with its remaining power, then it will naturally have to fight for its life, while defending the city, while calling the main force of the division a hundred kilometers away to quickly move eastward to encircle the Chinese army attacking the city.

Of course, he believed that the Chinese would not do this. Unless the Chinese had more than five times the number of troops and heavy artillery in a heavily guarded city, it would be almost impossible to defeat it within two days. .

In fact, both Tang Dao and Brigadier Cheng had already reached a consensus before the battle of Beiganling began. Both the battles of Licheng and Shentouling had been successfully completed, and Beiganling was the last battle. If there was a big victory, , this battle will come to a successful end. If there is a stalemate due to Japanese land and air support, we will not be disappointed. The entire army will evacuate in batches before the main force of the Japanese 108th Division arrives.

To put it bluntly, the best thing is to win the battle at Beiganling. If you don't win, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the lives of nearly 3,000 Japanese invaders in Licheng and Shentouling are guaranteed, which is enough for the 80th Army to occupy tomorrow's battle. The headlines of major Chinese newspapers.

As for Lucheng, both of them thought over and over again that they were too ambitious. There were really too many Chinese civilians in the city, which pushed the Japanese inside the city hard. They rushed the civilians to the top of the city to serve as shields. No matter how powerful the siege army was, they would have to pay a heavy price in the end. It was really not cost-effective!

It's piecemeal. I'll hit you with a hammer today and stab you with a knife the next day. It hurts the Japanese army but they can't do anything about it. Isn't it very satisfying?

Just like this time, for a piece of pig's back seat, the Japanese army kept giving away big fat meat. Isn't it delicious?

As a result, what Tang Dao didn't expect was that Xia Xiong Yuan, a beetle who was strong on the outside but **** the inside, was actually scared away and handed over the huge Lucheng city to him. Needless to say, he naturally accepted it with a smile, right?

So now, we can announce to the whole army: "We have won this battle! You little devil, give in!"

Tang Dao looked at his three colleagues at the same level behind him with a smile on his face. The four of them didn't speak, they could only smile at each other.

At this moment, there is no need for dialogue. Facing victory, all we can do is cheer!

Of course, there was still communication in the eyes of the four regiment-level officers.

Tang Dao means: Let Brigadier Cheng declare that as the supreme commander of this battle, he is the most qualified.

Wang Xiaoqiang grinned widely, and his eyes flashed with urgency, which meant brother, don't wait any longer, the bridal chamber and other things can wait, but you can't keep only the news of victory!

Not to mention Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang, who has a more impatient personality, the calmest Commander Xu of the 771st Regiment is also looking impatient at this moment, blinking his eyes, which means: The commander has made you the chief representative for surrender, and everything is up to you. , stop being reserved and hurry up!

Before Tang Dao's eyes turned around, the young leader of the 769th regiment also nodded fiercely, with tears in his bright eyes.

In this battle, his 769 regiment was the one that suffered the most among the four regiments. The heroes of the soldiers were not far away, and only a great victory could comfort them. As the commander of the regiment, he did not want to wait.

As a comrade-in-arms, Tang Dao understood their thoughts and nodded heavily.

Tantai Mingyue, who had recorded the historical moment of the surrender of Japanese officers with her camera lens, originally kept pointing the camera at the murderous officers and soldiers of her own side, but the woman's keen intuition made her feel a little unusual.

The Taiwan University reporter focused the camera on her fiancé, who was facing away from her.

At this time, the sunshine in the spring afternoon passed over the top of the mountain, filtered through the treetops, and scattered mottled patterns on Tang Dao's steel helmet and the military uniforms that were temporarily covered in dust and blood.

Tantai Mingyue felt a little sad in her heart. Although they were an unmarried couple, because they had just arrived in Jindong, the regiment was busy with affairs, and then they had to prepare for this battle. Tang Dao, the regiment leader, and Tantai Mingyue, the captain of the medical team They were so busy that the two of them didn't even see each other for nearly three days.

They were picked up by the cavalry on horseback and used their cameras to record the moment when more than a hundred Japanese troops surrendered. This was the first time the two of them had seen each other in the past three days.

But even so, the unmarried couple only had their eyes collided and their tender feelings flashed. Later, Tang Dao accepted the surrender of the Japanese army on behalf of the entire army, and Tantai Mingyue was responsible for recording the entire scene with the camera. To be honest, Tantai Mingyue even Neither of them saw the whole picture of their fiancé.

Now, the zoomed-in lens shows the clearest view of her fiancé's back in front of Tantai Mingyue.

But what makes Tantai Mingyue sad is not that the two have not seen each other for a long time, but that through the camera, she knows that Tang Dao is fighting on the front line again.

He is still the young lieutenant she met back then. He will never forget his identity as a soldier because of his promotion in military rank and status.

This may be the biggest reason why she fell in love with him.

But she will still worry about his safety.

In the camera lens, Tang Dao has turned around and looked solemnly at the 400 elite army facing him with solemn expressions.

His face is resolute, his eyes are bright, the sun shines on his young and resolute face, and the bright moon in Tantai suddenly holds his breath!

Of course, it was not because her fiancé was handsome and tough at the moment, but later, the metallic roar of Tang Dao resounded through the mountains and fields: "On behalf of the Four Lines Regiment, and on behalf of all the leaders of the 921st Division's forward command, I declare to the entire army that starting from early this morning, At 4 o'clock, nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers of our Fourth Army Regiment, our 921st Division's 769th Regiment, our 921st Division's 683rd Brigade, 711th Regiment, 772nd Regiment, and Supplementary Regiment participated in the three battles of Licheng, Shentouling, and Beiganling, and completely wiped out the enemy bandits. The Licheng garrison under the command of the 108th Division completely wiped out the 4,300 enemy troops of the 108th Division assisting Licheng. All combat tasks in this battle were successfully completed and the victory was achieved. "

“Great victory!” Tang Dao suddenly raised the katana in his hand.

The sound echoed in the mountains and fields.

A great victory?

This is not a great victory in one battle, but a great victory in the entire battlefield!

Although he had already experienced the victory in the Battle of Licheng, knew about the victory in the Shentou Ridge ambush battle, and witnessed the battlefield of Beigan Ridge in which the Japanese invaders were completely wiped out, at this moment, he suddenly heard Tang Dao say with his own ears: This battle is a great victory! At that moment, Tantai Mingyue was still a little dizzy with happiness. This means that the main forces of the 108th Division in Licheng and Lucheng were wiped out, and the Japanese army was no longer able to launch a counterattack.

What makes Tantai Mingyue, who is on the front line of rescue, most happy is that finally, Chinese soldiers no longer have to make any more sacrifices.

At least, for a short time.

The moment he pressed the shutter button involuntarily, there seemed to be light on Tang Dao's body in the lens.

In other words, it is not only the Tang Dao that shines in the eyes of Tantai Mingyue, but also the Chinese soldiers who suddenly became silent.

With the roar of Tang Dao, the whole place fell into silence, so quiet that it seemed that only the sound of leaves shaking in the mountain wind could be heard, and the only sound of the heart beating in the chest could be heard.

In this silence, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly pulled off his military cap and threw it into the sky, "Comrades, brothers, I have defeated the stubborn Japanese in this battle."

The roar of "The Japanese devils have been defeated." pierced the sky, and the lingering sound seemed to be lingering on the mountain ridge.

An officer with the rank of deputy commander of an infantry regiment threw his military cap into the sky in an almost wild manner, shouting loudly like a child who got a beloved toy. Undoubtedly, this was a flame thrown into the haystack, completely engulfing the scene. The atmosphere exploded.

“We defeated the Japanese devils!” The soldiers imitated their commanders, roared with all their strength, and threw their military caps into the air.

Even if they roared until their throats were broken and they could no longer make a sound, they still tried to express their excitement for victory with cheers.

They shook hands with each other, hugged each other, and slapped each other on the shoulders of everyone around them, whether it was dark gray or dark blue.

Some comrades-in-arms are gone, but these comrades-in-arms are still there.

　　No matter which division, brigade or regiment, they fought side by side in this battle that finally won the victory, faced the muzzle of the gun together, faced death together, and celebrated victory together.

The cheers like huge waves echoed throughout the mountains and fields, resounded through the clouds, and spread throughout the entire battlefield.

On the battlefield, whether they are soldiers who are still carrying supplies, soldiers who are on alert in their respective positions and ready to join the next battle at any time, or wounded soldiers who are lying on stretchers and groaning because of their injuries, when they hear The moment he heard the rumble of "Victory!", he was stunned at first, then tears filled his eyes, and then a smile took over his entire face.

They are crying and laughing, crying while laughing, and laughing while crying.

　　Then, you should also cheer as much as you like with the cheers of victory.

The roar of nearly ten thousand people doing their best was not even louder than the explosion of dozens of howitzers firing a salvo.

Nearly 200 Japanese surrendered soldiers lowered their heads in despair amid cheers that could almost shatter their eardrums. They chose to give up the empire for the sake of their lives, and the empire, like them, gave up its pride.

The empire lost completely in this battle, and these people were like their underwear being ripped off by the Chinese

Huge cheers even reached the 1st Artillery Battery position at least 2,000 meters away.

After an artilleryman listened carefully for a while and judged that what he heard was correct, he carefully put down the artillery shells on his back and told his comrades what he had just heard. Then, more than a hundred artillerymen and the company commanders and platoon leaders of the artillery company came together. , running madly towards the mountain peak where he is.

They must stand at the highest position and use the loudest voice to tell the brothers who fell in front of them in the Battle of Licheng and will never stand up and smile at them again, "Brothers, we will defeat the Japanese devils." "

Brigadier Cheng, who was drafting the next battle plan in the newly established field headquarters, also heard the shouts of "win" coming from the basin on the other side of the mountain. He looked up and saw the communications troops from the brigade headquarters rushing towards him.

"Chief, chief, a telegram came from Lucheng. The Japanese division headquarters has escaped. Commander Tang and the three commanders Chen, Xu and Wang jointly report to you that this battle is over successfully!" The signal corpsman was out of breath after running. I was angry, but I tried my best to recite this message completely.

“Haha, it turns out that this guy Xiong Yuan scared him away!” Brigadier Cheng's face also showed a deep joy. He clapped his hands and crumpled the battle plan he had just drafted into a ball. "The banquet has been set up, but the host and guest ran away, so let's finish the wine by ourselves."

“Such good news must not be forgotten by the two eager division commanders who passed on my order and reported the victory to the division headquarters.

The message is as follows: Great victory! Our army, in this battle, wiped out most of the 108th Infantry Regiment under the enemy's 108th Division, most of the 103rd Infantry Regiment under the enemy's 108th Division, and wiped out the cavalry regiment, armored squadron, baggage regiment, and engineer regiment under the enemy's 108th Division. There are several teams and other arms, and the final statistics of the battle results have not yet been completed, but they will never be less than 4,000. Our troops have now recaptured Licheng and immediately sent troops to occupy Lucheng where the Japanese invaders had evacuated! In addition, the battle losses of our four regiments were within the tolerable range. " Brigadier Cheng did not rush to join the cheering crowd at the brigade headquarters, but reported the victory to the 921st Division Headquarters emotionally.

The two big guys who had been waiting in front of the radio station took the freshly prepared telegram from the translator, and finally felt relieved.

“I finally won! Old partner, congratulations on choosing the right person!” A big boss congratulated his partner with a thick Sichuan accent.

"Hey! That skinny monkey named Cheng was chosen by you and me together, so why should I be considered the only one to take credit? You can't take credit for it." Another big guy with a good-natured face laughed and shook his head.

"You know, I'm not talking about him, but another much younger guy! But you convinced me to trust him wholeheartedly. Now, he has lived up to your trust." The little boss is extremely serious.

"Even if I said good things about him, didn't you also choose to trust me? The military order that agreed to all the decisions of your department was signed by both of us. This is a credit that you can't deny even if you want to."

"Haha! Then let's go to the 683 brigade headquarters together? Cheng Houhou is full of food in this battle. He has to give it to the division. The other groups are almost out of rice. By the way, meet me That little guy, I have to see what kind of thing he has, three heads and six arms. Why is it that Xiong Yuan, who is usually so majestic, was beaten to pieces the moment he came to the Four Elements Group?"

"I've been wanting to ask Cheng Houhou for a drink! Normally, this guy doesn't even treat me to a piece of cake, so now he can't escape no matter what." The Dunhou boss rarely opened up about his attributes. The next joke.

　　It's still the kind that's separated from the air!

You can see how happy he is at the moment!

“Let's go together, let's go together! Eat big chunks of meat and drink big gulps!”

While talking and laughing, the hands of two old comrades who had seen each other for more than ten hours almost every day were clasped together.

Perhaps only they themselves know how important this battle is to the 921st Division and even the entire 80th Group Army.

Before that, how much pressure the two chief officers were under.

But at this moment, both the risk and the anxious waiting are worth it.

The news of the victory in one of the most barren mountains in China is still spreading further and further through the radio waves.

It won't take too long and it will spread all over the country!
