Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Sun Liren rushed to Pinglu District with two main regiments, a supplementary regiment and a borrowed gun battalion. If Sun Liren didn't want to go, it could be said that the frontline emergency troops could not withdraw and could not leave, and Yan Laoxi had no choice.  You can still shoot him even if you know he is lying. Yan Laoxi can shoot Li Fuying, but Sun Liren is not from the Jinsui Army.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If the demand for war among the tax police corps were not so high, perhaps at this time the tax police corps was still stationed near Haizhou, but it was in the rear, and there were navy patrols, there was no need to fight to the death.  This is also attributed to the fact that the positions of Song Ziwen's Finance Minister and Sun Liren's Head of the Tax Police Corps came too easily.  In terms of ability, these two turtles are really talented, especially Minister Song.  But when others talk about it, because of his family relationship, in the eyes of the public, he is just a second-generation ancestor who rose to power through nepotism.

    ?????????????? If Song Ziwen had no ability, he would just do a casual job, but Song Ziwen believed that he still had the ability - at least in terms of his ability to find money, no one in the Nanjing government could match him.  This is one of the reasons why he can be the Minister of Finance. If someone else had come to Nanjing, he would have been eating porridge.  It can be said that Song Ziwen is the finance minister who is best at finding money since the Republic of China.

    From Yuan Shikai, Duan Qirui, Cao Kun to Zhang Dashuai, from the Anhui Clique to the Northeastern Army, the Beiyang government has changed its leaders so many times, and the underlying reasons for its final resignation are all due to economic problems.  The Zhili clique was the most unsuccessful at making money back then. After Cao Kun, the leader of the Zhili clique, came to power through bribery, he could not even pay the basic troops of the Zhili clique. The final defeat can only be said to be expected.

    The cavalry company walking at the front of the team was naturally the cavalry company. Sun Liren himself did not expect the cavalry's combat capabilities. Although modern warfare has greatly weakened the role of cavalry, the cavalry can still be used as vanguard scouts for reconnaissance. The cavalry company of the Tax Police Corps is  Reconnaissance company.  According to the marching route given by Yan Xishan, the tax police regiment deviated by about ten degrees. After a day and a half, they marched 60 kilometers along the mountain road and arrived in Pinglu District.

    Here, the cavalry company also easily discovered the traces of the Japanese - only a blind man could not see such a big target of three divisions entering and exiting Pinglu District and Shuozhou.

    When Sun Liren heard that he had found traces of the Japs, he immediately asked: "Where did you find the Japs?"

    "At least one Japanese brigade has passed here. I don't know how many Japanese are behind me." A squad leader of the cavalry company pointed to a point on the map. It has passed Pinglu District, indicating that Pinglu District is within the Tax Police Headquarters.  During the period of massing and marching, it had been lost.

    Sun Lixin said that it was fortunate that I had not planned to support Pinglu District early on, otherwise it would have been delivered to the mouth of the little devil.  Sun Liren asked: "Is there still fighting in Pinglu District? Have the Japanese discovered you?"

    The squad leader of the cavalry company said: "Report, there is no gunfire in Pinglu District, but there is gunfire in the direction of Shuozhou. The Japanese advanced in a hurry and did not set up observation posts at the commanding heights on both sides of the road, so they did not find us."

    Sun Liren carefully looked at the road conditions from Pinglu District to Shuozhou, and punched the map: "God is really helping me." The troops kept silent and headed towards Shangyaozi Village and Xiayaozi Village (who named them? I really want to go there)  ), keep them all in mind, don't let the Japanese see whoever exposes me and kills whom before launching a general attack."

    Since ancient times, Shanxi has been known as a land of mountains and rivers, which means that this place has a lot of mountains.  For example, the 105 howitzers of the Tax Police Corps can only stay near Datong where the traffic conditions are better. If they are brought over, the road conditions do not allow it and the march speed is too slow.  Along the line from Pinglu District to Shuozhou is a typical landform with two mountains and a ditch. This is a good place for ambushes - later generations of Shanxi were able to persist in the war of resistance for eight years after losing Datong and Taiyuan. Unlike the local area,  Landscape contributes a lot.

    Hisao Tani led three divisions to break through two areas in Qingshui River and Pinglu District. Within three days, he marched and advanced the front line 70 kilometers behind the enemy.  Hisao Tani knew that the defeated enemies were on both wings, and the enemy's reinforcements were coming from both wings. However, Hisao Tani was not afraid that the Jinsui Army on both wings had been frightened by the imperial army. In the past two days, the power of harassment was getting stronger and stronger during the march.  The smaller, and according to the latest intelligence, there is no central army in the second theater.  The task of the more than 50,000 men in his three divisions is to capture Shuozhou City and Wu Huawen and Li Fu in Shenchi County, Ningwu County and join his troops.

    As for the back, there are naturally supporting troops.  It doesn't matter if the three divisions of their own are besieged in the Shuozhou area. This is a tactic that the base camp has long thought of.  Use the three divisions as bait to attract a large number of enemies. When the time comes, attack on the three fronts of northern Shanxi, central Shanxi, and the Yellow River and wipe out most of the main force of the Shanxi-Sui Army in Shanxi.  According to the base camp's calculations on these local warlords, these people are the most active in shouting slogans on weekdays, even far more active than the central government. However, after suffering certain losses, they will begin to conserve their strength and passively avoid war.

    Although the three-day march was not without bloodshed, Hisao Tani's department actually only suffered a three-digit attrition, part of which was due to non-combat reasons such as acclimatization. This numberFor an army of more than 50,000 people, there was almost no loss.  The arrogant Japanese raised their tails to the sky again. Even the reconnaissance of the highlands during the march was just a show, and some firepower reconnaissance was added to assist - there were really a lot of highlands nearby.

    ??Besides, the entire regiment was fine in the past, so it should be fine.  The Japanese didn't know that on the northeast side of the six-kilometer-long valley road, officers and soldiers of the tax police headquarters were quietly gathering on this line.  In the late summer and early autumn, the weeds and shrubs half as tall as a man in the mountains and plains could still hide people. Sun Liren personally went to the front line and used binoculars to watch the little Japanese passing through the valley below.

    The team of little devils marched in four columns, with horse-drawn carriages and mule carts filled with supplies. The roads here in Shanxi were undoubtedly a disaster for the mechanized troops. On the contrary, the more primitive the transportation methods and means of transportation, the better they were used.  The little devils who had occupied most of Mongolia used Manchukuo bank notes to forcefully mobilize a large number of mules, horses and carts from the people for transportation in the mountainous areas.

    After seeing the terrain in person, Sun Liren began to assign tasks: "After the battle starts, the artillery and artillery will smash all the organic Japanese troops. **The first battalion and the special agent company will rush into Yaozi Village as soon as possible.  No matter how difficult it is between Liujiakou Village and Liujiakou Village, I will leave this task to you, Commander Zhang. You must close this door to me. If you can't close this door, I will bring the security company to close it. This  The first battle will focus on killing and killing the Japanese in large numbers, and I don¡¯t want any prisoners. The battlefield can be cleaned only after the gunfire of the Japanese stops."

    "Yes." "Yes." After receiving the task, all the ministries rushed to arrange it. This ambush operation can only be said to be a coincidence. It was not thought of at all beforehand.

    Sun Liren thought, this situation means that God does not take what he wants, but he takes the blame.
