On the morning of the same day, the headquarters of the First Group Army moved into Xiangtan City.Yang Jihong and the two division commanders came together to report on the combat situation during this period."
To put it briefly and clearly, we don't have much time, if the devil has any follow-up actions, we must hurry up to deal with it" Gao Dong got straight to the point, and the three of them didn't hide it, and quickly explained the process of this operation in detail."
Later, we chased 30 kilometers until we met Japanese reinforcements, so we retreated.Because he was afraid that they would be ambushed in the Changsha area, he never pursued them. ”The commander of the fifth division reported.Gao Dong nodded, and then asked: "Have you sent a reconnaissance force to keep track of the movements of the Japanese army?"
The commander of the sixth division immediately said: "Yes, we have sent four reconnaissance troops to reconnoiter the enemy's movements from four different directions. ”"Just before the arrival of the large army, the news just came back that the Japanese army set off from Changsha with a large army, at least two divisions of troops, all retreated to the Jiangxi area, it seems that they are going to run" Hu Xinghan laughed: "This is expected, the Japanese are afraid of being attacked from both sides, so they naturally want to flee in advance" Gao Dong asked: "Now, how many Japanese troops are there in the Changsha area" "In just these two days, there are more than 300,000 devils who retreated from all over to Changsha."
Therefore, we have never dared to act rashly, and strictly guarded Xiangtan.In Changsha now, there are still tens of thousands of people at most," said the commander of the fifth division."
Immediately contact the national army and tell them that it is time to launch a general offensive.If their movements are slow, I will take Changsha first," Gao Dong said to Hu Xinghan with a smile."
I'll contact their Changde operations command right away," Hu Xinghan said, turning to leave.Immediately afterwards, Gao Dong summoned all the division commanders and brigade commanders of the First Army to urgently deploy military tasks.After all the personnel arrived, Gao Dong pointed to a map spread out on the table and said loudly: "Everyone, now the Japanese are fleeing to Jiangxi in a hurry, leaving their backs completely to us. ”"If you don't take this opportunity to send them off properly, then we, the masters, will be too rude" Gao Dong smiled, and then the baton moved quickly on the map: "He Sheng, your armored troops are fast in mobility, and the terrain in this area is relatively easy to walk." ”"I want you to divide the armored force into three parts, and pursue the enemy's fleeing main force from three roads" "From the area of Ge's hometown, go straight to Liuyang, don't cut off the devil's retreat, just bombard and kill the devil along the road" "Yes" He Sheng said loudly."
Remember, don't get in their way, put a path for them to go.You will lead the troops, and keep bombarding them on the road they must pass, as many as you can" Gao Dong said with a smile: "The dog jumps over the wall when he is in a hurry, but if he gives them a way to live, they will rush desperately to survive, regardless of whether this is a trap set by us or not." ”He Sheng said with a smile: "Understood, I promise to complete the mission" "Your journey is long, don't delay here, immediately command the troops to set off, just leave a self-propelled artillery regiment" Gao Dong ordered.He Sheng left in a hurry, and Gao Dong immediately looked at the rest of the division commanders."
Liu Meng, the mobility of your paratrooper division is not bad.Then the task of harassing the enemy army along the way will be handed over to you" Gao Dong's baton drew a long area on the map and said: "Changsha to Liuyang, but it's a long way, don't let the little devil go smoothly" "Yes, resolutely carry out the task" Liu Meng saluted vigorously, and didn't wait for Gao Dong's orders, turned around and left.Next, Gao Dong arranged the combat missions of the remaining division commanders.Ordered them to sprinkle their troops along the way on the path that the devils must pass, and the devils went all the way, and they fought all the way, so that the devils could not walk.The important task of attacking Changsha was entrusted to the reinforced division.Today's reinforced divisions have a large number of generals and strong firepower, and it is more than enough to attack Changsha, where there are only a few Japanese troops."
I understand, then let's act, you want to make this retreat of the little devils a nightmare, so that in the next few decades, as long as they have a nightmare, they will remember the events of this day" The corners of Gao Dong's mouth showed a sneer, and he waved his hand to order everyone to act immediately.On the side of the Nationalist Army, the front-line command in Changde suddenly received a telegram from the First Army.As a front-line commander, Chen Cheng immediately summoned his subordinates to convene an emergency military meeting.He gave the contents of the telegram to all the generals present in the hope of getting their opinions."
Sir Chen, it turns out that the Japanese have already begun to retreat, no wonder they have been bombarding us with artillery fire for the past two days, but they have not seen their troops come out.And the number of artillery bombardments is decreasing, and it seems that there is a real retreat," said one of the generals, suddenly realized.The other generals also spoke out about the flaws, and finally agreed that the signs shown by the devil might really be retreating.Before Chen Cheng could make a decision, a telegram was sent from Huaihua.It is said that the Japanese army has retreated on all fronts, and the national army has successfully gained control of Huaihua.Chen Cheng suddenly realized that he immediately ordered the troops to attack on all fronts, and inflicted heavy losses on the devils at all costs before they fled.The Nationalist army took full action, and some of the suspicious soldiers left by the Japanese immediately became vulnerable.The entire front collapsed in an instant, completely collapsed.And at the same time, the main forces of the reinforced division had already reached the range of the field.As soon as they arrived in Changsha, the reinforced division launched a general attack on Changsha.At this time, there was a devil army in the city that had just retreated from the Huaihua area, and there were about two wings of strength.Before their buttocks were hot, they were attacked by the reinforcements.As soon as the commander of the devil discussed, he didn't stay here anymore, and immediately fled with his troops, leaving the place of right and wrong first.The reinforcement division almost did not waste any strength, and directly entered the city of Changsha.Despite the dangers of war, the common people welcomed their troops into the city in their courtyards.The little devils hurt them too much before leaving, and many families hated the devils to the core.At this moment, seeing their troops give the little devils to artillery, many people cried with joy.There are even some brave young men who pick up their own firewood knives and follow behind the large army of the People's Liberation Army, and go all the way to chase and kill the fleeing devils.It took less than half a day for the reinforcement division to liberate the entire Changsha City.However, the devil's troops retreated all the way, desperately retreating towards the Jiangxi area in the direction where their large army had fled.They think that as soon as they leave here, all the sins they have committed will be forgotten and no one will remember.But they don't understand the Chinese people, friends come, and the Chinese will be very welcome.But deal with them, the robbers who kill and set fires, even if they flee to the edge of the sky, kill them cleanly.That is, Tianli soon the remaining divisions of the First Army were also in place one after another.Shooting and killing the fleeing Japanese soldiers along the way, as long as they were devils passing through their sections, they were immediately swept by machine guns and bombarded by artillery fire.Anyway, if you don't leave a pile of corpses, you will definitely not be able to escape.The devils who fled for their lives immediately became unstable and rushed to escape from the boundaries of Hunan.They have now defined Hunan as a hell on earth, and they all think it is a very terrifying thing to stay here for a second longer.But more terrifying things are still to come, the devils' retreat road is full of PLA ambushes for them, but what is even more terrifying is that there are mobile troops such as paratrooper divisions, constantly harassing and ambushing them along the way.It is often the little devils who have just escaped from an ambushed area, and before they have time to rest, they encounter a paratrooper division that has come from a cover.The paratrooper division is very mobile, like a pack of wolves that prey on prey, coming and going quickly.Before the devils could make any reaction, the paratrooper division had already rushed into their ranks.Then it was a close-range sweep to them, and he didn't stay long, and after killing a bunch of people on the periphery, he withdrew before the devils counterattacked.The paratrooper division constantly harassed the devils, and the devils couldn't fight if they wanted to, and they couldn't escape if they wanted to, and they were really miserable.There was no way, the devils could only tell each other, and then quickly flee the area to avoid contact with the paratroopers as soon as possible.The devil troops all believed that as long as they arrived in the Liuyang area, they could smoothly enter the Jiangxi border.But dreams are always beautiful, but facts always give people a slap in the face.When the devils arrived in Liuyang, they were met with artillery bombardment.Liuyang is really hell on earth at this moment, and the little devils painfully find that everything they have experienced before is simply heaven.But there is no way, you can't stop and wait to be slaughtered by the Chinese army.Although the artillery fire in the Liuyang area was fierce, the PLA still left a way out.As long as they pass through this fierce artillery bombardment belt, they still have a chance to live.As a result, tens of thousands of devils, like moths fighting fire, rushed to the Liuyang area desperately.After leaving a large number of corpses, some devils finally rushed through the Liuyang area, and then advanced to the Jiangxi area without their lives.This kind of resistance lasted for three days.In the past three days, there were constant attacks and harassments along the way, killing more than 40,000 Japanese soldiers and capturing more than 10,000 devils.More than 20,000 puppet soldiers were killed, nearly 70,000 puppet soldiers were captured, and mountains of military supplies were captured by the Japanese puppet army.Although Okamura Ninji's troops were poor, that was in terms of weapons and ammunition.In terms of living materials, they are not poor at all, and the materials captured by the People's Liberation Army are enough for the people of Hunan to use for a long time.Three days later, Gao Dong ordered all troops to stop the pursuit and stay where they were.Because, on the Jiangxi side, the devil's army came to help their rout.aa2705221:
