    ¡°Bang, bang, bang¡ª¡± At four o¡¯clock in the morning, on the special train going south along the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line, the sound of wheels hitting the rails was very annoying. In the command car in the center of the train, Luo Yuming was pacing back and forth, glancing at the wall from time to time.  Check out the hand-drawn map of Yiwu sent by the intelligence department.  Luo Yuming was worried. Thirty hours had passed since the Japanese Fourth Division captured Dongyang, southeast of Yiwu. Dongyang was only 20 kilometers from Yiwu. According to the speed of the Japanese army's march and attack, Yiwu might be in danger.  Once Yiwu fell, the Japanese army blocked the New Second Army's westward retreat.  Just when Luo Yuming was deep in thought, Colonel Chen Wenyu, chief of staff of the new second division, suddenly broke into the command car, waved the telegram in his hand and said loudly: "Master, it's not good, Yiwu has been occupied by the Japanese army." "What?" Luo Yuming suddenly shouted  Turning his head, he strode forward, grabbed Chen Wenyu's hand, and asked anxiously: "When did it happen? Isn't it the temporary 34th Division of the Central Army's direct line that is defending Yiwu? There are at least more than 10,000 of them.  With ready-made defensive positions and the support of the people of Yiwu, how can we hold on for a day or two? How can we just lose it?" "Master, intelligence officers have received definite news. Starting at nine o'clock yesterday morning, the Japanese Fifth Division was launched.  The 41st Regiment of the Regiment began to attack the main position of Maxiang Mountain in the southeast of Yiwu City. The National Army's temporary 34th Division was a self-defense force formed by the police officers under the Guerrilla Command of the Third War Zone, standing troops from various places, and strong men.  The regiment was expanded. The original division commander was Ma Zhichao from Huangpu Phase I. Currently, Major General Zhu Qi, who was also born in Huangpu, serves as the division commander. ¡°Due to Gu Zhutong¡¯s order, the 34th Division reluctantly resisted for a whole morning, and later the Japanese reinforcements arrived.  When they arrived, the offensive force increased to two regiments. In addition, there were not many advantageous terrains to the southeast of Yiwu City, so the temporary 34th Division had to retreat to Yiwu County.  "The two sides fought fiercely until four o'clock in the afternoon. The Japanese army flew more than 20 planes from Hangzhou Jianqiao Airport and threw more than a hundred poison gas bombs at the south gate of Yiwu City. As the poison gas filled the air, Zhu Qi was afraid that the troops would suffer huge losses, so he hurriedly ordered  Withdrew.  " Chen Wenyu was very angry and said: "Now the Japanese army has occupied Yiwu City Master, what do you think we should do now?  "This information is a telegram intercepted by the Intelligence Section and sent from Zhu Qi, the temporary commander of the 34th Division, to General Gu Zhutong of the Shangrao Third Theater Command. Because Wu Ming does not have a harmonious relationship with the national army in Zhejiang, the various departments of the national army have  The intelligence department was not clear about mobilization and response. In view of this, deputy division commander Lu Dazhong, who followed Chen Wenyu into the command car, suggested: "Master, should we wait for the follow-up troops?"  The Fifth Division is the absolute main force of the Japanese army. One brigade has more than 10,000 troops. Although we have the advantage in terms of strength, the Japanese army occupies a favorable location and is waiting for work If we wait for the follow-up troops, we can concentrate our forces and defeat the Japanese army in one fell swoop.  " "No, we can't wait at this time The military commander said that when we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win.  Our division must resolutely capture Yiwu City. Now the main force of the army is waiting for us to open the passage to the west. We cannot do nothing. Luo Yuming made up his mind without hesitation: "Inform the whole division and all regiments will mobilize elite troops to form death squads. Stop in Yiwu  Let me beat you to death if you take the train. " "Well the enemy situation in Yiwu City is not yet known. Should we send a troop to inquire about the enemy situation first? " Chen Wenyu suggested: "Besides, we are leaving in a hurry.  It does not carry heavy weapons for attacking. Once the train is blocked by the Japanese army outside the city, it will be difficult to break through the Japanese city defenses." "If we can't break it, it will be too late. The Japanese army has just occupied Yiwu City, and it must be in chaos. We suddenly appeared now, maybe.  The Japanese army can be caught off guard." Luo Yuming categorically rejected the opinions of Lu Dazhong and Chen Wenyu, and waved his hands vigorously: "After ordering the first and second brigades to get off the train, they directly opened fire on all the Japanese troops they could see. The soldiers quickly occupied the train station.  , the first and second brigades launched an attack on the city with all their strength, and the sixth brigade served as a reserve team and acted together with the division headquarters." "Yes" Lu Dazhong and Chen Wenyu looked at each other and took the order.  With Luo Yuming¡¯s order, the New Second Division began to prepare for the war. The officers and soldiers in the carriage kept wiping the guns in their hands, polishing the bayonets, and trying to adjust their status.  The first train successfully entered the train station near Yiwu Chengzhong North Road. The Japanese army did not intercept the train outside the county town. This made Luo Yuming both surprised and very happy, and he also had some expectations for success.  There were less than two squadrons of Japanese troops defending the railway station. The Japanese captain, Shao Zuo, stared at the train entering the station with his mouth open. It took him a while to wake up - the most famous devil army in the Chinese army, the New Second Army, was here.  , quickly ordered the Japanese troops stationed at the train station to quickly build firepower points.  Of the two trains, the one in front has not yet entered the platform. Officers and soldiers have been jumping out of each carriage. They are elite officers and soldiers selected from each regiment, plus sharp knives directly under the division headquarters.Battalion, thousands of soldiers quickly spread out along the railway line towards the periphery.  Through the strong light from the searchlight on the top of the station, Major Shimono looked at the Chinese officers and soldiers who kept jumping off the train, and wanted to take the initiative. Thinking of the brigade commander and Major General Kawahara Seven repeatedly saying that they were optimistic about the train station, he had to order his Japanese soldiers to pay attention.  Put it on the train.  The train in front had just stopped when the four heavy machine guns and twenty light machine guns deployed by the Japanese army on the platform opened fire at the same time. Countless bullets blocked the iron doors and windows of the train car, making the officers and soldiers of the New Second Division afraid to show up.  Although I had no strength, I was choked by the little devil. I couldn't move up or down. It was very uncomfortable.  Major General Shimono¡¯s wishful thinking was very good. He had already reported to the commander of the 9th Brigade and Major General Kawahara Genchi over the phone. Oikawa told him that as long as he persisted for a quarter of an hour, reinforcements would arrive one after another. ?????????????? It was the Japanese devils who were responsible for their own evil. They used poison gas bombs to scare away the temporary 34th Division, and then began to massacre and loot, killing many Yiwu people.  The officers and soldiers of a regiment left behind by Zhu Qi are currently holding on in the area near the city gate in the west of the county with the cooperation of the common people in Yiwu. Hechuan Yuanqi is currently gathering the main force of the brigade to eliminate this stubborn enemy, and even the north gate has not had time.  Blockade, who would have thought that the New Second Army, which was entangled with the Japanese 23rd and 33rd Divisions on the front line of Zhuji, would kill them like soldiers and generals from heaven?  "Ta-ta¡ª¡ª" The sound of intensive bullet shooting sounded, and Major Shimono turned around, his eyes suddenly widened. The officers and soldiers of the New Second Army who had jumped out of the car were attacking towards the platform based on the terrain.  "Shoot and stop them quickly." Shimozuo kicked the heavy machine gunner next to him, and immediately deployed half of his firepower to suppress the officers and soldiers of the New Second Army who were attacking from the outside.  This change gave the suppressed officers and soldiers in the train a chance to breathe. In just ten seconds, a machine gun was set up at every window, spitting out deadly tongues of fire. Some officers and soldiers even braved bullets and jumped out of the carriage door.  He rushed out, picked up submachine guns, rifles and light machine guns, and greeted the Japanese soldiers desperately.  The Japanese army was attacked from two sides and suffered huge casualties. The situation was suddenly reversed.  At this time, the second train arrived at the station, and more officers and soldiers jumped out of the carriage. The powerful offensive quickly stunned the Japanese army.  Seeing that the enemy was outnumbered and that his officers and soldiers suffered serious losses, Major Shimoji wisely chose to retreat. The Fifth Division was worthy of being the main force of the Japanese army. The two squadrons of the Shimoba Brigade retreated in an orderly and orderly manner, leaving no room for pursuit.  The new second division caused a lot of trouble.  The New Second Division quickly occupied the train station. As soon as Luo Yuming got off the bus, Fang Shengde, the commander of the Jiandao Battalion, came to report that there was intensive gunfire from the west of the city, and there should be Chinese troops resisting in Yiwu City.  Luo Yuming made a quick decision and asked First Brigade Commander Han Tiecheng to lead his troops directly to the west of the city to cooperate with unknown friendly forces to attack the Japanese.  Second Brigade Commander Fan Daoquan led his troops through the city, first ensuring the safety of the two bridges across the Yiwu River, and then rushed to Maxiang Mountain in the south of the city to block the Japanese reinforcements and at the same time block the escape route of the Japanese troops in Yiwu City.  Jin Yonghe¡¯s Sixth Brigade is responsible for clearing out the Japanese Japs scattered throughout Yiwu City, and supporting the First and Second Brigades at any time.  After receiving the order, Han Tiecheng led a brigade to attack at high speed from several main streets in Yiwu toward the west of the city. Along the way, the officers and soldiers encountered many Yiwu people who came to help.  During yesterday's attack, the Japanese army first dropped poison gas bombs in the south of the city, causing a large number of casualties among Yiwu people. After entering the city, the Japanese army set fire to the city, burning down the Kuomintang county party headquarters, county government, police station, Chenghuang Temple, relief home, etc.  , a group of Japanese troops looted and burned down an elementary school and a middle school on their way to the train station.  During this period, the Japanese army raped, plundered, burned and killed, and did everything. In just over ten hours, more than 5,000 Yiwu people died tragically under the massacre by the Japanese army.  Hearing the bloody and tearful accusations made by the people of Yiwu against the Japanese army, Han Tiecheng was extremely angry and immediately said that he would do his best to fight the Japanese army and let the little devil pay for his blood debt.  At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky is already bright.  When Han Tiecheng rushed to the county government that had been burned to the ground by the Japanese army and almost turned into a white ground, he happened to encounter the Japanese army led by Oikawa Yuanshichi, who was leading reinforcements to the railway station, and a fierce battle began.  Because there were many ruins in this area, which blocked the line of sight, and the distance between the two armies was very close, Han Tiecheng Brigade took advantage of it.  As soon as the light and heavy weapons opened fire, the leading troops of the Oikawa brigade were swept away, and a large group fell instantly.  Han Tiecheng was the first officer and soldier, holding a Somi submachine gun, and plunged straight into the Japanese queue. Just as the submachine gun bullets passed by, a hail of grenades flew over again. Such a desperate attack made the Japanese cry for father and mother.  "Hold on, hold on" Major General Oikawa waved his saber and shouted crazily, seeing the defeats coming from the front one after another.The soldiers immediately sent their guards up.  ¡°Bang¡ª¡ª¡± A clear gunshot sounded, and Major General Oikawa¡¯s eyes instantly glazed over. He subconsciously covered his stomach with his hand, and when he raised his hand, he saw blood on his hand.  Oikawa Genchi stared at his palms blankly, suddenly feeling dizzy, his whole body quickly softened, and he collapsed to the ground.  Several guards quickly helped Major General Oikawa up. When they saw the wound on his stomach, they were shocked. No longer caring about the battle situation in front of them, they quickly picked up Major General Oikawa and ran towards the south of the city.  Xiao Chunzi, who was already the company commander of the Jian Dao Battalion, curled his lips a little disappointedly, very dissatisfied with his performance - the shot just now did not pose a fatal threat to the Japanese major general who was shot.  But Han Bo, the sharp knife platoon leader next to him, looked at him enviously and raised his thumb: "Brother Chun, your marksmanship is so good. You can hit that Japanese general in the stomach from a distance of 1,200 meters. It's really incredible."  "Easy" "I didn't measure the wind speed, so that Japanese general escaped. It's really unlucky." Xiaochunzi waved his hand helplessly. Just now he was clearly aiming at the heart of the Japanese major general, but he didn't expect that the bullet would be blown away by the wind during flight.  direction.  Once Major General Oichuan ran away, the Japanese army could no longer withstand the sharp offensive of Han Tiecheng Brigade, and they followed Major General Oichuan and fled to the south gate of Yiwu.  Han Tiecheng Brigade followed behind, and there was another fight. The finally defeated Japanese soldiers threatened the main force of the Japanese army that was encircling and suppressing the defenders in the city, and escaped out of the south city gate together.  At this moment, Fan Daoquan's Second Brigade had not yet tied the hole, and the Japanese army broke open a bloody path and fled towards Dongyang.  In this regard, less than twenty hours after the fall, Yiwu City once again returned to the hands of the officers and soldiers of the New Second Army.
