20. Beheading

Zhou Weiguo took advantage of the Japanese army's breathing and positioned the two soldiers sleeping at the door.

After confirming that there were no Japanese troops in the hall, Zhou Weiguo turned on a flashlight and bit it in his mouth. Only then did he see clearly that the Japanese troops had divided more than ten rooms in the cave, and a map of the Linyi area was hung in the hall.

Zhou Weiguo made several gestures, and the second team picked a room and carried out action.

Zhou Weiguo carefully checked the Japanese offensive roadmap.

This is about the Japanese offensive route of the Battle of Xuzhou, which is not much different from that in history. Zhou Weiguo said secretly, but if I intervene in the Battle of Xuzhou today, the history I know will change. Sure enough, it is still the most important thing to enhance my own strength.

After a while, Zhou Weiguo's mind was completed. Zhou Wei felt a little relieved. When Zhou Weiguo sent troops to Linyi, the system issued this assassination mission, which coincided with Zhou Weiguo's idea. After reading the reward, Zhou Weiguo sighed that it was indeed a serious sin. Tonight's assassination mission allowed him to gain nearly 20,000 war points, and among them, Itagaki Seishiro contributed a full 10,000 war points.

But a wise man will make a mistake in his mind, and a gunshot came from the darkness.

Zhou Weiguo quickly rushed to the room where the gunshots were, and then shot to deal with the Japanese army struggling to get up. When he looked at the special forces team again, he found that it was Shengzi, who had fallen aside.

"Shengzi!" Zhou Wei Guodao, "Wake up!"

"Captain, Master, I can't fight the Japanese with you." Shengzi said powerlessly, "Master, you can go quickly. In a while, the Japanese will come."

Zhou Weiguo said angrily, "What are you saying!" Then he carried Shengzi on his back and came to the hall to gather with everyone, saying, "Have you all arrived?"

"We're here!" Xu Hu said.

"Let's go, retreat!" Zhou Weiguo said quickly.

...

At this time, the Japanese soldiers patrolling had already walked to the near command center. After hearing a not-so-sounding gunshot, they heard another sound, and then asked the Japanese machine gunner and the whistle not far away, "Where did the gunshot come from?"

"Hey! Wake up!" The Japanese military commander immediately pushed the "sleepy" Japanese machine gunner, but the machine gunner fell to the ground, revealing the terrible wound on his neck.

It just so happened that Xu Hu came out of the Japanese command center and rushed towards the Japanese army, killing several Japanese soldiers. The unlucky sergeant happened to be among them, which scared the other Japanese troops to hide quickly.

...

At this time, Liu San and others had already set up bombs near the arsenal and the Japanese soldiers' tents. When they heard gunshots in the distance, they knew that Zhou Weiguo and the others might have been exposed. Before the Japanese soldiers had time to react, the first squad went a little further and threw more than 30 grenades into the arsenal and the Japanese soldiers' tents, directly detonating the time bomb. Then they began to retreat.

In an instant, the Japanese positions were in chaos.

Zhou Weiguo and others took advantage of the chaos to retreat, and then met Zhang Yong, who was supporting the outside. After arriving at Liu San and others who were also retreating, they retreated together to where they lurked.

...

"Shengzi, Shengzi!" Zhou Weiguo shouted, "Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep!"

"Captain, where is Shengzi injured?" Liu San asked, "If you are seriously injured, you must go to the hospital!"

"Right chest." Zhou Wei Guodao, "I guess I've hurt my lungs, so I really need to go to the hospital. Now the county town closest to us is Linyi. It seems that we have to go to the city."

"Huzi, Zhang Yong, you two are leading the way." Zhou Wei Guodao, "San brother, you find someone to make a stretcher."

"yes!"

...

At this time, the defenders of Linyi were the troops of Pang Bingxun, commander of the 5th War Zone, under the commander of Li Zongren. Pang Bingxun was a veteran who participated in the Revolution of 1911 and the Northern Expedition. Historically, on March 10, 1939, the Sakagaki Division rushed towards Linyi with the support of aircraft, cannons and tanks. The positions of Pang Bingxun's troops were in a sea of ​​fire. However, it had already repelled the Japanese army's multiple charges, tenaciously held the position, and withstood the attack of the Sakagaki Division. Regarding this blocking the enemy, Li Zongren, commander of the Fifth War Zone, wrote in his memoir: "The enemy's repeated repetitions for several days when the enemy was poor.

The rushing, casualties were all in vain, and they could not step beyond the line. At that time, there were no less than dozens of Chinese and foreign journalists and friendly military officers watching the battle in Xuzhou. No one expected that the best "Imperial Army" would be frustrated by the unknown Chinese "miscellaneous" troops. For a while, Chinese and foreign countries were rumored, and colorful sounds were everywhere." In the early morning of March 14, Pang Bingxun's troops and reinforcements Zhang Zizhong's troops jointly launched a counterattack, fighting fiercely for five days and five nights. On March 18, the Sakagaki Division was driven to Ju County, and the Japanese troops were corpsed all over the world along the way. After the counterattack, Zhang Zizhong's troops were transferred, and Pang Bingxun continued to defend Linyi.

On March 25, the Sakagaki Division made a comeback after rest and attacked Linyi. In order to shorten the front line, Pang Bingxun retreated his troops to the suburbs of Linyi and fought bloody battles with the Japanese army again. Zhang Zizhong led the 59th Army back to the army for reinforcements, and another brigade of the 57th Army and a cavalry regiment of Tang Enbo also reinforced Linyi. At dawn on March 30, Pang and Zhang armies launched a counterattack on the whole line with the cooperation of the reinforcements, drove the Sakagaki Division out more than 30 miles and lifted the siege of Linyi. This was the second victory of the battle of Linyi. After the end of this battle, Zhang Zizhong's 59th Army and reinforcements

All the troops were transferred away, and Linyi was still defended by Pang Bingxun alone. After more than a month of hard fighting, Pang Bingxun's troops suffered heavy losses, and all their troops were less than one brigade. On April 19, the Sakagaki Division rushed to Linyi City again, and a city wall was blown up by Japanese planes. The Japanese army rushed into the city. The Pang army defended the city with the help of residents started a hand-to-hand battle with the Japanese army. At this time, the Battle of Taierzhuang had ended successfully. Therefore, Pang Bingxun was ordered to withdraw from Linyi and head to the south of Tancheng near Longhai Road. He also fought fiercely again with the Sakagaki Division who continued to move south after occupying Linyi.

...

Linyi County Town

"What happened?" a middle-aged man in a military uniform frowned and asked, "Where did the explosion come from?"

"Report to the military seat, an explosion occurred at the Japanese position outside the city." A soldier reported.

Pang Bingxun was puzzled, "The Japanese's position?" Then he grabbed the military coat and said, "Go and go and have a look."

When Pang Bingxun stood on the not-so-high wall of Linyi County, looking at the flames of the Japanese positions outside the city soaring into the sky. Although he was confused, he was still very happy inside and said, "Let the soldiers guarding the city gate be careful tonight. If there are strangers, please come to the county government."

"yes!"

Obviously, Pang Bingxun, who was over fifty years old, had guessed that someone must have attacked the Japanese position. Pang Bingxun not only did not hate such people, but also welcomed them very much. He experienced the late Qing Dynasty. He followed Sun Yat-sen's Revolution and participated in the Northern Expedition in order to let the people live a good life. It can be said that Pang Bingxun was a real soldier.

...

Soon, Zhou Weiguo and others had arrived at the foot of Linyi County. At this time, Zhou Weiguo and others had taken off their Japanese military uniforms, causing misunderstandings.

"Brothers of the National Army in the city, we are from the Suqian Independent Division. Please open the door! One of our brothers is injured and needs treatment!" Zhang Yong shouted.

"How do you prove that you are independent teachers?"

Zhou Weiguo immediately took out his officer certificate and said, "Brother on the city, this is my officer certificate, it was from the independent brigade before. The new officer certificate has not been issued yet! You can take a look!"

Then a basket fell from the city wall, and General Zhou Weiguo put his officer certificate on it. After a while, the soldiers on the wall saluted Zhou Weiguo and said, "Sir, let's open the city gate immediately!"

...

Soon, the injured Shengzi was sent to the hospital, and Zhou Weiguo was invited to the Linyi County Government.
