275 The Great Wall War of Resistance 14
"Retract Wang Yizhe's 67th Army and increase his defenses in Luanxi!" Zhang Xueliang's face turned pale and gave such an order.
The members of the Beiping Army Branch present remained silent. The increase in defense of Luanxi was just to give the Northeast Army a gold medal, losing Northeast and Jinzhou. A small battle at Shanhaiguan was also lost. The Japanese army attacked Rehe, and Zhang Xueliang wanted to fight this battle, but what happened unexpectedly happened. The Northeast Army, which had lost its hometown, had dispersed after all concessions. The morale of hundreds of thousands of troops could not change as quickly as Zhang Xueliang's attitude, and it was easy to destroy. It took Zhang Zuolin more than twenty years to build the territory of the Northeast Army from a scholar-in-law, and it only took a year to destroy the Northeast Army.
Rehe was lost, but it was not Zhang Xueliang's direct line. But this time, the several divisions brought by Wang Yizhe were in full swing under the first attack of the Japanese army. From Rehe to now, whether it was Sun Dianying's 41st Army, Song Zheyuan's 29th Army, or Guan Linzheng who was hurriedly transferred from the southern anti-communist battlefield, Huang Jie and other troops were more than one level stronger than the Northeast Army. Even the anti-Japanese volunteers who fought guerrillas were far stronger than the Northeast Army. So the Beiping Army Branches on all defense lines of the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War have abandoned the Northeast Army. As for Wang Tiehan's temporary army transferred from the 15th Army, there is no need to compare.
From the former powerful force, second only to Nanjing, to the fact that wars have become an army that even miscellaneous cards are despised. There are probably not many people in the Northeast Army who can hold their faces. Zhang Xueliang is undoubtedly a person with good face, but the Northeast Army's low combat power is now hard to recover. There is no good way, including him, and he can only let other troops stand on the front line of the Great Wall.
The complete loss of Rehe led to a huge uproar in domestic public opinion. Zhang Xueliang should have stepped down under these pressures at this time, but because of the emergence of the 15th Route Army, Nanjing was worried that after Zhang Xueliang stepped down, the 15th Route Army, which had a deep relationship with the Northeast Army, would take the opportunity to win over the old subordinates of the Northeast Army to take the opportunity to grow and expand its power to the Hebei area.
The responsibility for losing Rehe was undoubtedly on Tang Yulin. In fact, no matter how much punishment it was for Tang Yulin, it was worth it. The 15th Army and the Jin army were mobilizing trucks to transport military supplies. When ammunition, Tang Yulin intercepted more than 200 trucks to pull the Minjianbei ointment that the Tang family had plundered in Rehe and retreated to the Great Wall. So Tang Yulin's 4th Army and the original Rehe Army were all revoked. As for the soldiers who escaped, they were recruited by some troops fighting against the Japanese army nearby. Tang Yulin had to hide in the concession with his remaining wealth and goods, and then withdrew from the military and political circles of the Republic of China.
In the Gubeikou area, Wang Yizhe failed under the Japanese attack, the first person to take over Guan Linzheng's 25th Division. While the large army was still wearing straw sandals and the conditions were far inferior to the Northeast Army at this time, Guan Linzheng immediately commanded the 73rd Division to marches urgently to block the gap left by Wang Yizhe and occupy the highlands on the east and west sides of the south of Gubeikou Town. The 75th Brigade gathered near the Huangdaodian.
The next afternoon, the Japanese army launched a tentative attack on the 25th Division under the cover of artillery fire. After retreating a few hours later. The Japanese army, which had tested the virtual and real forces, suddenly gathered its main force to attack the right wing of the 25th Division on the second day. The 145th Regiment of the 73rd Brigade, which defended the area, was quickly cut off the connection with the main force of Gubeikou by the Japanese army because of its isolation. Guan Linzheng immediately commanded the 75th Brigade to rescue. The Japanese army did not expect that Guan Linzheng's counterattack would come so quickly and decisively. After fighting with Guan Linzheng's troops for several hours, the two armies entered a close contact. Guan Linzheng personally went to the lower line to command. Because the war was too fierce, the regiment commander Wang Runbo died. Guan Linzheng was injured but insisted on repelling the Japanese army before being carried down by the guards. The battle was handed over to the commander of the 73rd Brigade Du Yuming.
The next day, the Japanese army attacked again. The 145th Regiment failed to fight, almost all casualties were all. The communication between the division's division's division's command post was interrupted, forming a state of fighting on its own. The defenders' divisions were not supported and retreated one after another, and Beigukou fell. The 25th Division retreated to the line on the left and right high ground of the South Heaven Gate.
"Stop!" He Qifeng and a platoon of soldiers stopped the hundreds of people retreating from outside Xifeng's entrance.
"I am from the 119th Division of the 53rd Army. Now I am ordered to retreat and retreat to the entrance of Xifeng. Why do you stop me..."
"Bang!" Before the other party could finish speaking, there was a loud fire.
"Which unit are you from? Why do you hit people? Old... My military rank is a captain, I beat Shangguan without authorization. Today I have to punish you as the following! " Company commander Wang Zhishun pointed at He Qifeng with a red mouth, and saw He Qifeng's cannibalistic eyes. After all, I didn't say anything.
"Just because you are also called Shangguan? I dare to call you again. I deserve to execute you on the spot now. Listen to it, I am from the 2nd Division of the 1st Army of the 15th Route Army. Now you are incorporated." He Qifeng straightened his military cap and said with a stern face.
"We are from the 53rd Army of the Northeast Army. Why do you want to recruit our troops? We want to meet the commander of the army!" When Wang Zhishun heard that the other party was from the 15th Army, his voice suddenly lowered, and even the sound of clamoring just now became smaller.
"Look at your appearance, and you still have the face to mention that you are from the 53rd Army. Tens of thousands of people fired a few shots at the sky. If you see the Japanese, you run away. If you dig a hole and drill in, you won't let your parents be embarrassed if you live in the world. Like you, I was in the Northeast Army before. Now the commander of Wan Jun is at least a hundred miles away from Xifeng. Now you may be at the command center or somewhere to visit the kiln. In a word, either stay for the inclusion, or retreat from where to go and go back. The 15th Army's position does not provide a way for deserters." He Qifeng said with disdain.
"The Northeast Army is now in a bad state. Although the army sent by Nanjing has also been defeated, the division commander Guan Linzheng personally went to the front line to supervise the battle, which can be regarded as the time for Huang Jie and Liu Kan to consolidate their positions. Guan Linzheng can fight, but unfortunately, there are many problems with the central army, and the firepower is seriously insufficient, otherwise it would not have been a result. In addition, the number of radio stations prepared by the external team is too small. Once divided, the various departments cannot fight together. This is a good thing for the Japanese army. Even if the Japanese brigade is divided, it can be effectively commanded. Even if it is our army, the radio stations are only arranged in the regiment headquarters, which is slightly better than the Central Army, but slightly worse than the Japanese army." Wang Tiehan listened to the report provided by Deputy Chief of Staff Xiong Fei.
