    The main force of the Japanese army quietly broke through, which was a fatal blow to the Japanese and puppet troops holding on in the city. Everyone was not stupid and knew that they were treated as abandoned sons and completely abandoned by the headquarters.

    At present, the morale of both the puppet army and the Japanese army has dropped sharply.

    Soon, the puppet troops in the city could no longer hold on, and then, under the leadership of the forward commanders, they surrendered to the national army one after another.

    The situation on the Japanese side is similar. The current Japanese army cannot compare with the Japanese army a few years ago in terms of combat effectiveness and fighting will.

    Especially now that many soldiers in the Japanese army are underage children. Most of them were students or apprentices before being transferred to the Chinese battlefield. Few of them had ever touched a gun. They were shocked by this tragic scene as soon as they came up.  Terrified.

    Under the command of superior commanders, they could barely maintain their sanity, but now that they learned that the senior officers in the headquarters had given up on them, these Japanese troops quickly collapsed.

    Even the regular troops have this kind of virtue, let alone those armed expatriates.

    Starting at six o'clock in the morning, the street fighting has evolved into a battle to capture prisoners.

    Turning back to the Japanese troops in the direction of the south gate, facing the swarming Chinese cavalry, the hearts of Shanggang Budao and others became cold.

    But in the current situation, they have no other choice but to fight to the death. At the moment, the two sides start a duel between infantry and cavalry at the south gate of Taiyuan!

    In the absence of complete fortifications and sufficient firepower, it would be a disaster if infantry and cavalry met.

    After more than an hour of fighting, only less than 2,000 of the more than 4,000 people brought out by Shanggang Martial Arts from Taiyuan City were left, and they were surrounded in an open space between the Chengnan Gate and the City Gate Tower.

    At this time, the national army in the city had also rushed to the south gate, and Shanggang Martial Arts and others were in a dilemma.

    Jiang Feng would not sympathize with these Japanese soldiers, so he immediately ordered someone to send a message to them, asking them to immediately lay down their weapons and surrender, otherwise his troops would immediately launch a general attack and completely annihilate them.

    At the same time, Jiang Feng transferred more than fifty tanks from Ximen to complete the posture!

    Shanggang Budao and others who were trapped in the siege all knew that it was over. Surrounded by cavalry and tanks, their force composed of regular troops and armed expatriates had no hope of breaking out.

    The matter has come to this, and Shanggang Martial Arts no longer wants to make unnecessary sacrifices.

    In order to defend Taiyuan City, he put all the regular troops in his hands into the battle, and also organized so many expatriates to participate in the war. At present, many of the expatriates were dead. If he continued to resist stubbornly, all of Taiyuan City would be destroyed.  The young and strong overseas Chinese may really be doomed.

    Shan Gang Martial Arts knew that they had tried their best, but in the face of the absolute strength of the supporter, they really had no choice.

    After some thinking, Shanggang Martial Arts immediately ordered people to enter the city to negotiate with Jiang Feng and others. As long as the Chinese army can guarantee the safety of the soldiers under his command, he will order the troops to lay down their weapons and surrender to the national army.

    Jiang Feng had no reason not to accept this request from Shan Gang Martial Arts.

    Subsequently, the Japanese troops in the encirclement immediately laid down their weapons and surrendered to the Jiujiu Army.

    At this time, the fighting in Taiyuan City had basically subsided. When the sun rose, the dog-skin plaster flag at the top of Taiyuan City was thrown to the ground. Then the National Government's red flag flew high at the top of Taiyuan City.  got up.

    News of the recovery of Taiyuan City was subsequently sent out by the headquarters of the Ninth Army. On the morning of June 10, Chongqing and the First and Second World War Zones received an enemy situation report from the headquarters of the Ninth Army.

    In an instant, the news spread throughout the country through these departments.

    Of course, due to time constraints, the headquarters of the Ninth Army only reported the news of the recapture of Taiyuan, but did not explain the results and casualties of this battle. Therefore, the outside world is still quite suspicious of this news.

    ¡°The fact is that it¡¯s not that Li Guoyao and others don¡¯t want to give detailed data, but that they themselves don¡¯t know the data.

    Although Taiyuan City has been defeated, the battle is not over yet, because the Japanese army is still holding on to the Xinkou defense line, and the troops of the First Army that have withdrawn from the Henan battlefield have also arrived in Jincheng, and their leading troops, the Third Tank Division, have  It has arrived in Changzhi.

    Although the Eighth Route Army on this front also carried out an all-round attack on the Japanese army, the effect was not great. According to the estimates of the intelligence department, the Japanese army would be able to return to Taiyuan City by the 12th at most.

    And the latest news is that after learning that Taiyuan City had been lost, the North China Front Army Headquarters??Order the main force of the 12th Army in the Henan battlefield to go north from Luoyang to join the Shanxi battlefield.

    In other words, the enemy troops currently faced by the Ninth Army are not only the 20,000 troops of the First Army, but also the northward troops of the 12th Army.

    In addition to the 114th Division transferred from the Hebei battlefield, plus the small 20,000 people on the Xinkou front line, the total number turned out to be 70,000 to 80,000.

    Under such circumstances, Li Guoyao did not dare to underestimate the enemy, and immediately ordered the troops in the direction of Taiyuan City to seize the time to build fortifications, and ordered the troops on the Xinkou defense line to speed up and strive to capture Xinkou within two days.

    Another good thing is that now that the battle has started, the Jiuji Army is no longer fighting the enemy alone.

    In the southwest of Shanxi, nearly 100,000 troops in the World War II zone besieged the Japanese and puppet troops in Linfen, Luliang and other places, and achieved great results. In less than two days, they had conquered 7 counties and marched to the entire southwest of Shanxi.  Advance.

    As expected, when the troops of the 12th Army arrived in southwestern Shanxi, the World War II zone basically controlled the situation in southwestern Shanxi. Will the reinforcements of the 12th Army be able to pass through Yan Laoxi's Shanxi-Sui Army?  The defense zone is still unknown.

    In addition, the Eighth Route Army has also cut off the Zhengtai Railway. The Japanese 114th Division could only rush to Xinkou on foot. However, it was frantically intercepted by the main force of the Eighth Route Army along the way, and its progress was slow.

    Furthermore, the Eighth Route Army Headquarters also ordered the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region on the front line of Wutai Mountain to gather more than 30,000 people from 24 regiments and move towards the Xinkou front line to reinforce Li Guoyao's battle in the direction of Xinkou.

    In fact, both the World War II District Chief's Department and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters have seen that the Japanese and puppet troops on the Shanxi battlefield are at the end of their strength. Although they still have some strength, the overall defense is full of loopholes.

    Now is the best opportunity to seize territory. If we don't send troops decisively at this time, it will not be easy to come back after the friendly forces capture those territories.

    For example, Zhao Chengshou's troops sent by Yan Laoxi to rob Taiyuan. When they arrived in Taiyuan City, the Jiujiu Army had completely eliminated the remaining enemies in the city and controlled the situation in the city. Therefore, after Zhao Chengshou's troops arrived in Jiaocheng  He could only stop.

    Under such circumstances, no matter whether it is the Jinsui Army, the Eighth Route Army or the Central Army, there is no need to temporarily call the Ninth Army, and they will all attack with the main force.

    At this time, it can be said that the Japanese army is surrounded by enemies everywhere. Whether it is the field troops fighting the national army or the garrison troops in various places, they face the same situation.

    In addition, in order to defend Taiyuan, Xinkou and other places, the Japanese army transferred a large number of troops from southeastern Shanxi and southwest Shanxi to the line of the Great Wall, which resulted in an extremely empty force in the rear. Therefore, a large number of counties and districts were captured in a short period of time.  The First Army suffered extremely heavy losses.

    On June 11, under Li Guoyao's order, Jiang Feng's two cavalry regiments plus an artillery battalion arrived at the Xinkou front line and attacked the Japanese army from front to back.

    Facing the front and back attacks of the national army, the Japanese and puppet troops on the Xinkou front suffered heavy losses. Later, in order to avoid being surrounded and annihilated by the entire army, Okamura Neiji personally ordered the Japanese and puppet troops to abandon Xinkou and the main force to withdraw along the railway line to Niangziguan.  , joined with the 114th Division.

    At this point, the battle in the direction of Xinkou has also ended.

    At this time, the North China Front Army Headquarters also realized that it was difficult to carry out a comprehensive counterattack with less than four divisions on the Shanxi battlefield alone, because the enemy forces they had to face were extremely shocking in terms of both quantity and quality.  of.

    In addition to the 60,000 to 70,000 elite troops of the Ninth Army on the Northern Front, there are also the hundreds of thousands of troops in the World War II zone, plus the hundreds of thousands of troops on Tubal Road. They are equivalent to using 60,000 to 70,000 troops against the opponent's smaller 400,000 troops.

    When the war first started, Okamura Neji wouldn't have had anything to worry about. After all, at that time, one Imperial Japanese Army could handle five troops/soldiers. But now, with the consumption of a large number of elites, the Imperial Japanese Army's  The combat effectiveness plummeted.

    On the other hand, after nearly 7 years of war, the Chinese people have adapted to this war, and the opponent's population advantage has also been brought into play. The combat effectiveness of both sides is not only shrinking, but has almost reached the point where they are almost the same.  .

    Therefore, using tens of thousands of people to attack hundreds of thousands of people at this time is like hitting an egg against a stone, which is completely suicide.

    In desperation, Okamura Neiji could only order Yoshimoto Teiichi, Uchiyama Eitaro and others to suspend their plan to counterattack Taiyuan, and instead asked them to ensure the Linfen, Jincheng and Yuncheng lines in southern Shanxi.

    As the Japanese army stopped moving north, the Taiyuan campaign initiated by the Jiujiu Army to seize Taiyuan and the inner Great Wall temporarily came to an end.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
