No matter how worried the national army is, the Japanese army will still act as usual without being affected at all!
On March 15, 1940, the Japanese army divided into three directions, advancing from the west, south and north to jointly attack the Northern Jiangsu National Army.
On the West Route, the Japanese army followed part of the Ozaki Brigade from Bengbu, Anhui, up the Huaihe River and marched eastward, aiming directly at Xuyi.
The Japanese army on the South Road was dominated by the 15th Division. The main force set out from Zhenjiang and Jiangdu, and together with the Japanese Marine Corps, went north up the canal to attack Gaoyou.
On the North Road, a portion of the 21st Division was divided into left and right wings and moved southward. The left-wing Japanese army moved south from Funing to support the enemy, while the right-wing Japanese army set out from Huaiyin and headed south along the canal, hoping to meet up with the Japanese 15th Division heading north along the canal.
When the news came, the entire Sulu war zone was shocked again!
I originally thought it was just a small-scale attack by the Japanese army, but I didn't expect that the Japs would actually advance with the main force. This was completely intended to annihilate Han Deqin's troops.
In the face of the Japanese attack, Han Deqin would not sit still and wait for death. He immediately ordered the 6th Independent Brigade and two security regiments to stop the enemies moving eastward from Bengbu in Xuyi, ordered the 3rd Security Brigade to stop the enemies heading north from Jiangdu in Gaoyou, and ordered the Duty The 5th and 6th police regiments blocked the enemy from Funing southward in the north of Yancheng.
At the same time, the 117th Division of the 89th Army, the main force of the direct line, was ordered to block the enemies coming south from Huaiyin near Touculndong and Jinghe Town. The guerrillas of the Eighth Army and Li Mingyang's troops served as second-line troops and served as reserve forces.
Han Deqin knew very well that if he directly ordered these two non-lineage troops to fight the Japanese army, those short-sighted guys would probably think that he was treating them as cannon fodder, and they would probably act perfunctorily, which would be detrimental to the overall situation.
So we can only put them on the second line. When they see how Han Deqin fought with the Japanese army, they will know what to do.
By then, if they still don¡¯t know how to do it, Han Deqin will have his own way to deal with them.
While Han Deqin's department was exchanging fire with the Japanese army, Li Guoyao also received a telegram from the Sulu Theater Headquarters, with only one content - asking for help!
Yes, Yu Xuezhong thought of Li Guoyao again!
"There is no way, who can make the combat effectiveness of the Jiujiu Army visible to all, and their station is only based on Jiangsu North, who can we find if we don't look for them to be firefighters?
At present, the main force of the Japanese army on the northern front, more than 20,000 people, is heading south, which is the main force to attack Han Deqin's department. Once the three Japanese armies encircle Xinghua, Han Deqin's department will have no choice but to go to sea if they do not want to be completely wiped out.
"The Sulu Theater Headquarters has just completed the anti-mopping battle. Not only is the headquarters exhausted, but ammunition is also severely consumed.
What¡¯s more important is that the Japanese army has been keeping an eye on them. The Japanese army in Linyi frequently dispatched and continuously raided several counties and districts at the southern foot of Yimeng Mountain. They had no chance to go south to support Han Deqin¡¯s department.
After much thought, Commander-in-Chief Yu could only ask for help from Li Guoyao's headquarters again, hoping that Li Guoyao would consider the overall situation and send troops to help a group of Han Deqin's troops.
Li Guoyao didn¡¯t have a favorable impression of Han Delqin, but he didn¡¯t have a bad impression either. Therefore, after receiving the telegram requesting help from the Sulu War Zone, Li Guoyao did not immediately reply, but thought about it carefully.
When it comes to reinforcing Han Deqin's headquarters, it is not a big problem for Li Guoyao. He does not even need to use the main force of the Ninth Army. Lu Wenlong's headquarters and Zhu Hong's Haizhou detachment alone are enough.
But the question is whether it is worth it. This is a question worth considering!
???????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
If Li Guoyao remembers correctly, the Japanese army will soon launch a large-scale mopping up operation in the Jiangsu area with heavy troops, and finally drive the main force of the national army out of Jiangsu. The action now is just to let Han Deqin's department linger for a while.
What's more important is that once they take action, the Haizhou detachment and Lu Wenlong's command will be completely exposed. It will be good or bad at that time.
Given Chongqing¡¯s suspicion of him, I¡¯m afraid the first telegram sent was not a commendation telegram, but an accountability telegram.
"But what Commander-in-Chief Yu said in the telegram was sincere, and Li Guoyao also knew that it was difficult for him to do it now, so Li Guoyao didn't know what to do for a while.
Just when Li Guoyao was hesitating, the battle situation in northern Jiangsu changed. The Japanese army captured several important towns in Jiangsu and met at Jieshou and Jiangba respectively.
During the Xuyi defense battle, Li Zhiguo, chief of staff of the 6th Independent Brigade, died for his country. The commander of the 7th Security Regiment, six battalion commanders and 11 company commanders also died for his country. The number of casualties exceeded 5,000 officers and soldiers.
Subsequently, the national army moved to the Caodian and Antidian areas east of Huai'an to avoid the enemy's advance, and then took advantage of the opportunity to move towards the enemy's rear.Attack!
On March 18, the 117th Division recaptured Gaoyou and Baoying, and the 6th Independent Brigade recaptured Jiangba. During this period, Li Delin, commander of the 1st Guerrilla Corps of the 8th Army of the National Army, Huang Zhenguo, commander of the 198th Regiment, and Zhou Dewen, deputy commander of the regiment, fought bravely He died for his country and suffered heavy casualties in all departments.
The Japanese troops advanced with great success, approaching Xinghua, the core defense area of ??Han Deqin Department!
This year's spring drought in northern Jiangsu was severe. Only the deep center of the large rivers in Xinghua had water, while the small rivers and small ports were completely dry. The water network turned into land. This caused the Han Deqin Department centered in Xinghua to lose its natural barrier against the Japanese mechanized troops. .
The Japanese army took the opportunity to attack the northern Jiangsu National Army in two directions. From the north, the Japanese army threatened Yancheng and Dongtai from Funing and Huai'an, and then threatened Xinghua and Taizhou from east to west; Yangzhou, Xianzhen, Shaobo, Gaoyou, Baoying, Tianchang, Liuhe and other places The Japanese army threatened Xinghua and Taizhou from west to east.
Facing the crazy attack of the Japanese army, Han Deqin knew that he would definitely be doomed if he fought head-on. Not only would he not be able to defend the city, but all his troops would also be doomed.
After thinking over and over again, we decided to adopt a war avoidance strategy, leaving only a small number of troops to block the enemy, and the main force took the initiative to evacuate Xinghua.
At the same time, Han Deqin once again asked for help from the Sulu Theater Headquarters, hoping that the Sulu Theater Headquarters could launch a local attack in Haizhou or Xuzhou in northern Jiangsu to contain the Japanese army.
This time, the Japanese army went deep alone and lacked troops. Once the rear defense area was unstable, it was likely to occupy Xinghua and then withdraw its troops.
After receiving the telegram from Han Deqin's headquarters, Commander-in-Chief Yu discussed with Chief of Staff Wang Jingxuan and Director of the Political Department Zhou Fu and others that the current situation in the Sulu Theater was no longer enough to launch an attack that would discolor the Japanese army. At the very least, the Sulu War Zone alone cannot do it.
The best way to force the Japanese army to return reinforcements is to seek help from Li Guoyao's command. As long as the Ninth Army is willing to send troops, the Japanese army will not be able to return reinforcements even if they do not want to.
Since Li Guoyao has not replied to them in the past two days, Commander-in-Chief Yu decided to go to Xiong'er Mountain in person!
Forced by the situation, he had no choice but to make the next move!
In order to prevent Li Guoyao from having an excuse to escape, Commander-in-Chief Yu did not notify the Ninth Army when he arrived, but came directly with a cavalry battalion escort.
However, when they arrived at the outskirts of Xiong'er Mountain, they were confused because the patrol stopped them and told them that only Deputy Commander Xu Hu, Commander Li Guoyao and Chief of Staff Ma Desheng were not on the mountain.
There is no other way, Commander-in-Chief Yu can only go up the mountain to see Xu Hu first!
After confirming that Li Guoyao was indeed not in Xiong'er Mountain, he felt a little discouraged. He had to use the radio station in Xiong'er Mountain to contact Li Guoyao and once again asked him to send troops to reinforce Han Deqin.
This time, Commander-in-Chief Yu did not ask him to send troops as eloquently as last time. Instead, he offered many generous conditions. First, he promised to apply for 300,000 yuan in military pay for Li Guoyao's department, and also gave Li Guoyao a military salary of 300,000 yuan. Their regiment's equipment and one million rounds of ammunition can also provide a batch of supplementary troops to the Ninth Army.
The commander-in-chief even asked Li Guoyao to put forward his own conditions. In short, as long as Li Guoyao's troops are willing to send troops, everything will be easy to negotiate!
