Li Guotao and others had decided to concentrate the main force and attack the Japanese army surrounded in Anda.The Operations Office then drew up a detailed offensive plan and issued it to the participating units, which immediately began to make preparations.Two days later, the Eighth Route Army concentrated the main forces of the newly formed 3rd Division, the Armored Division, the 3rd Independent Division, the 2nd Independent Division, and some local troops, about 120,000 troops, to launch a full-scale general attack on Anda County.Among them, the 2nd Independent Division was responsible for blocking the reinforcements of the enemy in the direction of Harbin, and the main forces of the remaining three divisions, as the main attack force, launched fierce attacks on the Japanese army in Anda from three directions.Li Guotao personally rushed from Qiqihar to Anda and personally commanded the campaign.At this time, Anda's little devil had been besieged for more than 20 days, and several breakthroughs failed, and the Japanese army also sent troops to support several times, but they were all defeated by the main force of the Eighth Route Army.At this time, the Anda Japanese army was already at the end of the strong crossbow, under the crazy attack of the Eighth Route Army, although the Japanese army resisted desperately, it was still defeated and retreated, the fortifications outside the city were broken through one after another, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses, and the remnants of the army could only retreat to the county seat, waiting for reinforcements.In a forward observation post, Li Guotao held a telescope to observe the battlefield in the distance, nodded with satisfaction and said: "At present, all the troops are progressing very smoothly, but we must not have the slightest slackness, we must annihilate the defenders in the city as soon as possible and take Anda."
If it drags on too long, something else may happen. ”"Please rest assured, the commander, at present, the troops are strengthening the offensive, but the little devils are still fighting and defending the county seat, although our army is not able to conquer Anda's city fortifications for the time being, but it is only a matter of time, according to the current situation, the little devils in the city will not last long."
At this time, Yang Xuecheng next to him spoke.Li Guotao nodded with satisfaction, and then asked: "Is there any movement of the little devil in the direction of Harbin?"
Yang Xuecheng hurriedly replied: "According to the telegram sent by Lao Meng, the Japanese army sent about a brigade of troops to try to support Anda, but it has been intercepted by the main force of our independent second division, and the little devil has only one brigade of troops, and he cannot break through the defense line of our army at all. ”"Good" Li Guotao only said a good word, then raised the telescope again and looked in the direction of the battlefield in the distance.Just then, a staff officer hurried in, holding a telegram in his hand.Yang Xuecheng hurriedly took the telegram, took a closer look, and couldn't help frowning.Li Guotao seemed to feel the change in Yang Xuecheng's mood, put down the binoculars, turned to Yang Xuecheng and asked: "What happened" Yang Xuecheng hurriedly replied: "I just received a telegram from the new Fourth Division, the 10th Division of the Japanese Army suddenly left Tailai and advanced to the northeast, it seems that it wants to bypass the defense line of the new Fourth Division and support Anda County." ”Li Guotao couldn't help frowning when he heard this, thought about it for a while, and said with a wry smile: "This 10th Division is quite good at picking the right time, ordering all local troops along the way, doing their best to block the Japanese 10th Division, and try to delay the speed of the devils." ”"What about the new Fourth Division," Yang Xuecheng hurriedly asked."
Let them continue to defend the Jiangqiao defense line and contain the Japanese 1st and 8th Divisions."
Li Guotao commanded casually."
Yes" Yang Xuecheng responded, and hurriedly turned around and ordered the staff officer to convey the order.At this moment, another staff officer hurried over, respectfully saluted, and said loudly: "Report to the chief, the headquarters has sent an urgent telegram that the 123rd and 124th divisions of the Japanese army have dispatched more than 20,000 troops from the south of the Nehe River to Fufu County. ”Li Guotao smiled and said: "I forgot about this little devil on the North Road, I didn't expect them to really have the courage to take the initiative to attack our army." ”Yang Xuecheng said with a smile: "It seems that the little devil has also learned the strategy of encircling Wei and saving Zhao, and intends to use this method to contain the strength of our army."
However, our army is currently relatively empty in Fufu County, and the strength of the little devils of these two divisions has recovered, and more than 20,000 Japanese troops attacking Fufu County are also a big threat to our army."
Order the cavalry division, attack and harass the Japanese army, and do everything possible to delay the speed of the Japanese army.The teaching brigade was ordered to immediately transfer 5,000 troops and quickly drive to Fufu County to assist the local troops in defending Fufu County. ”"Yes" Yang Xuecheng responded respectfully, and hurriedly ordered someone to convey the order."
Boom" At this moment, a violent explosion sounded again in the direction of Anda County, and the artillery of the Eighth Route Army concentrated its artillery fire again and began to bombard the fortifications of Anda City.The infantry of the divisions were also ready to launch a new and more fierce offensive against the county town of Anda at any time.Li Guotao raised the binoculars, observed for a moment, and then said with a serious face: "Order all troops, this time you must break through the fortifications of Anda City in one fell swoop and annihilate the defenders in the city." ”"Yes" Yang Xuecheng replied with a serious face, turned around and left.The violent explosions still rang out, and the artillery fire that rose into the air almost enveloped the entire Anda City.The dilapidated city wall trembled incessantly in the violent explosion, and sections of the city wall collapsed because it could not withstand the violent impact.The heavy shelling lasted for about half an hour, and finally gradually stopped, and then a loud horn of charge suddenly sounded on the position of the Eighth Route Army."
Kill" The earth-shattering shout of killing immediately sounded, and thousands of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army immediately rushed out of the position and rushed towards Anda City without hesitation."
Boom" In the violent roar of the motors, the steel chariots also rushed out of the position, covering the infantry and rushing towards the city wall.Heavy tracks ran over the ground, causing the ground to tremble slightly, kicking up a cloud of dust.Even Li Guotao, who was two or three miles away, couldn't help but feel a burst of blood boiling when he heard the earth-shattering shouting and saw the red flags rushing towards Anda City.Listening to the roars of the soldiers in the distance, Li Guotao seemed to be immersed in the scene, at this time he seemed to be an ordinary warrior, clenched the steel gun in his hand, and rushed towards Anda City with the belief of victory."
We will definitely win," Li Guotao clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said with a firm expression.aa2705221:
