    Chapter 981 Xiyun Peak Counterattack

    As the top commander of the more than 80,000 Central Army troops in Duyun, Guo Huawen personally directed the battle to recapture Xiyun Peak. This is abnormal. It can be seen that Guo Huawen attaches great importance to Xiyun Peak. Xiyun Peak was unexpectedly captured by the Japanese.  The capture was like a thorn, piercing deeply into Guo Huawen's throat. While he blamed himself, he actively organized a counterattack.

    All the officers of the 19th Group Army fiercely opposed the commander's personal risk. How could one person be so rash when he was responsible for the fate and safety of more than 80,000 officers and soldiers and the city of Duyun?  However, Guo Huawen had made up his mind, and the generals had to watch him leave the city with fear.

    Xiyunfeng fell because Guo Huawen did not expect that the Japanese army would come so quickly and that the defenders would be defeated so quickly. As long as the defenders persisted for more than two hours, Guo Huawen would organize his troops and surround the thousands of little Japs who had gone deep alone.  They were all killed at the foot of Xiyun Peak, but it was too late. The regiment leader who lost the important area of ??Xiyun Peak and fled back to Duyun City has been shot. Only by recapturing Xiyun Peak can we defend Duyun City.

    On a summer night in southern Guizhou, it is hot and humid. Flying insects fly everywhere and penetrate every hole. They burrow into the collars, cuffs, and trouser legs of the Central Army soldiers, and their bites are painful and painful. On Xiyun Peak, Japanese soldiers gather up  There were piles of bonfires, swaying like will-o'-the-wisps in the dark night, and from time to time the Japanese soldiers hummed tunes drifted along with the night wind. For these Japanese soldiers, fighting such a battle was almost like traveling.

    The night gradually deepened, the temperature dropped, and the condensed dew dropped on the clothes drop by drop, soaking the thin military uniform.

    The cold weather was so cold that one couldn't help shivering. It was close to one o'clock in the morning, and the bonfire on the mountain had dimmed, and there was no longer the sound of the Japanese soldiers howling like ghosts. There was a deathly silence around Xiyun Peak.

    Guo Huawen looked at the luminous watch and whispered to the operator who was carrying the radio on his back: "Order the artillery to start bombarding." There were no lights and dull thunder suddenly sounded in the dark city of Duyun. From Guo Huawen's perspective  Look, bursts of fire appear and disappear, and in the sky, a swarm of meteors flies from far to near, passing overhead in an instant.

    The artillery of the 19th Group Army began to bombard Xiyun Peak. Each shell, with a long tail flame and a piercing scream, plunged into the main peak of Xiyun Peak. In the fire, the Japanese army  The staggering figures of the soldiers appeared and disappeared, and the sound of huge explosions continued to spread to the surrounding fields in the dark night, creating dull echoes in the distance.

    Groups of artillery shells ripped through the air and roared in. Xiyun Peak was shrouded in flames and metal fragments. Hengshan Jinyong suddenly jumped up from the haze. What caught his eyes were the artillery shells falling like meteors.  , fires everywhere, shrapnel whistling and flying, imperial soldiers whose bodies were torn apart in the fire, figures running in panic, what was heard was that in the huge roar, the brave and invincible imperial soldiers were approaching  The scream before death.

    "Shell bombardment, bombardment by the Chinese army, enter the fortifications immediately and prepare to fight!" Hengshan Jinyong immediately understood that the Chinese army had taken advantage of the night to counterattack. Your Excellency, the captain of the company, stood bravely and fearlessly on a high place, commanding loudly, maybe he was the target  It was too obvious. Maybe Yokoyama Shinyu was too unlucky. Just after shouting these words, several artillery shells flew over, followed by mud, gunpowder smoke, and fire.  Mix the shrubs on the ground and fly into the air together.

    After the smoke cleared, there were several large craters on the ground, and the lingering smoke was still rising. There was no trace of the presence of the captain of the 1st, 3rd, or 3rd Regiment, Colonel Yokoyama Shiny¨­, and a few torn pieces of military uniforms.  , a command knife broken into several pieces, seems to be able to prove that the person who once stood here was a Japanese soldier with a beautiful dream, but with his sins, he only added some fertilizer to the land of Qiannan, China.  .

    Unexpectedly, in the early morning when the Japanese soldiers were the sleepiest and most unprepared, the fierce bombardment lasted for more than an hour, causing huge casualties to the 133th Regiment. The area around the main peak of Xiyun Peak was almost changed.  The terrain and landscape showed that more than two thousand Japanese soldiers were covered in shelling and their bodies were torn to pieces.

    As soon as the bombardment ended and the Japanese soldiers had not yet woken up from the bombardment, a roar suddenly broke out at the foot of Xiyunfeng Mountain. More than 6,000 Central Army soldiers shook off the dew from their bodies and launched a charge towards the remaining Japanese troops. Guo Huawen  He breathed a long sigh of relief. There was no more suspense in the battle to recapture Xiyun Peak. The effect of this shelling was beyond his expectation.

    At about 4 o'clock in the morning, the battle to regain Xiyun Peak ended successfully. The Japanese 133th Regiment was completely wiped out on Xiyun Peak. More than 3,200 people under the commander of the regiment, Yokoyama Shinyong, and the following were all annihilated. Unfortunately,  Unfortunately, no Japanese prisoners were captured. The angry Central Army soldiers were merciless. In addition, the Japanese soldiers resisted to the death, which aroused the soldiers' anger and simply killed them all.

    Faced with such a result, Guo Huawen could only smile bitterly.?The original intention was to capture a few Japanese soldiers and send them to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek in Chongqing, so as to promote the reputation of the 19th Group Army. It seems that this matter was ruined.

    Subsequently, Guo Huawen placed more than 6,000 people from the *** Brigade on Xiyun Peak, and mobilized a large number of troops to repair the fortifications overnight, dig anti-gun holes and hidden areas, establish various firepower points, and transport enough  Ammunition, supplies, and various medicines were provided, and some doctors and nurses from the group army's field hospital were also sent to establish a field hospital. Perhaps in the future, the main position of Xiyun Peak will be fighting alone.

    Guo Huawen knew very well that the main position of Xiyun Peak would bear the brunt of the fiercest Japanese attack in the future defense battle of Duyun. Without taking Xiyun Peak, the Japanese army would not be able to approach Duyun City. It can be said that Xiyun Peak would not be able to approach Duyun City.  If Yunfeng is there, Duyun City is there. This is a thorn in the eyes of the Japanese.

    At dawn, a Xiyun Peak main position with complete fortifications and various defensive measures appeared in front of Guo Huawen. What he admired most was the creativity of Chi Zifeng, the commander of the ** Brigade.  On the slope, a communication trench was dug leading to Duyun City. This was equivalent to establishing a lifeline to Xiyun Peak, which could continuously increase troops and replenish supplies and ammunition to the main position of Xiyun Peak.

    Back in the city, Guo Huawen meditated silently in front of the map. He suddenly discovered that there was a small river called Longtou River between Dushan and Duyun. It was only thirty kilometers away from Duyun. "Staff officer, immediately order twenty  The commander of the First Army's special agent battalion, come to me." An hour later, several trucks loaded with gunfire quickly drove out of Duyun City and headed towards the Longtou River.

    That night, Yamashita Fengwen slept very soundly and sweetly. He had not slept well like this for a long time. When he got up, he took a breath of fresh air in China and could not help but be intoxicated by the beautiful scenery in southern Guizhou. It was so beautiful, rich and vast.  The land was occupied by the inferior Chinese people. This inferior nation did not deserve to have such land. This is the only reason why Yamashita Fengwen picked up the saber, his hands covered with blood, and set foot on this land as a conqueror.  .

    After relaxing for a few times and taking out some kendo postures, Yamashita Fengwen was in a good mood. He greeted the commander casually and looked at the commander's staff with reverence, "Xiaoyan-kun, is there any news from Yokoyama-kun?  "Your Excellency, Commander, the Hengshan Regiment Captain's last report was at 23:00 last night. Since then, there has been no news," the young staff officer replied carefully.

    "Oh, Mr. Hengshan probably overslept on that mountain peak in China. Contact the Hengshan Alliance immediately and ask about the situation in Duyun," Yamashita Fengwen casually ordered, enjoying the Japanese breakfast comfortably. Yamashita Fengwen's mind was already filled with thoughts.  I began to think about the next attack target of the 15th Army after occupying Duyun. It could be faster, but the attack speed of the troops was still slow.

    Staff officer Xiaoyan ran over in a hurry, with an uncomfortable look on his face. Yamashita Fengwen shook his head, very disapproving. He is a young man after all. He can't hold his breath. It's nothing more than the Chinese government troops trying to recapture Xiyun Peak. "Report to the commander,"  Your Excellency, our headquarters has lost contact with the Hengshan Regiment. All radio stations are on and there is no signal from the Regiment." Xiaoyan looked at his face and reported cautiously.

    A piece of cake that Yamashita Fengwen took into his mouth was stuck in his throat at that time, and his face turned purple due to the suffocation. He finally swallowed it and asked hurriedly: "Since when did you lose contact with the Hengshan United?"  It was probably around 4 a.m. that the signal from Hengshan United was suddenly interrupted," Xiaoyan added further.

    "Honey, it's four o'clock in the morning. That was four hours ago. Why didn't you report it right away? Baga, you are working like a stupid pig." Yamashita Fengwen suddenly stood up and overturned the table. A sumptuous breakfast  It was scattered all over the ground, and he rushed to Xiaoyan angrily and slapped him across the face several times until stars appeared in his eyes and blood came out of his mouth. Then he left the stunned staff officer and hurriedly rushed into the radio station as if his buttocks were on fire.  tent.

    Seeing the commander who suddenly turned into a ferocious man, Xiaoyan felt aggrieved and wanted to commit suicide. It was not your order to go down, and nothing should disturb his rest. Even if Commander-in-Chief Juichi Terauchi came to send a telegram, unless it was a telegram from His Majesty the Emperor,  At this moment, he has turned his back and refuses to recognize anyone. Where can he try to reason with me? It¡¯s so damn frustrating to receive these slaps.

    Yamashita Fengwen rushed into the radio tent, and his first words were, "Everyone is dead, work hard." Looking at the commander who was as furious as a bull stepping on his eggs, several Japanese soldiers beside the radio  The junior officers were stunned with fright, and suddenly there was a burning pain on their faces. It turned out that Your Excellency, the Commander, was so agile that everyone received a few slaps in the face.

    The Hengshan Regiment lost contact with the lone army for more than four hours and could no longer be contacted. Yamashita Fengwen had a premonition that something must have gone wrong somewhere in Xiyun Peak. The worst outcome would be that the Hengshan Regiment would be captured by the Chinese government.  Military"Go down, order all troops to move to the direction of Duyun immediately." In the mountains and fields of southern Guizhou, a sound like a wolf howling from Fengwen could be heard from the bottom of the mountain.
