Major General Tian Lu was born into a samurai family.
He graduated from the 19th Infantry Course of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School.
He later studied at the Army University and served successively as battalion commander, regiment commander, division staff officer, detachment leader, and brigade commander.
He is well versed in Chinese culture and is familiar with the Chinese culture.
He has read Sun Tzu's Art of War, Thirty-Six Strategies, etc., and is a famous Confucian general in the army.
The Jiangbei Garrison Brigade is an independent brigade affiliated with the newly established China Expeditionary Force.
It has not been established for a long time, but the officers respect Major General Tian Lu and carry out his orders to the letter.
They will do whatever the general says. , then what should be done.
Now the general said that this was a Chinese trap, and the officers all yelled and cursed, saying that the Chinese were cunning and we would never fall for them.
Tian Luchao smiled faintly and said, "You are all wrong.
I want to go into the mountains."
The officers looked at each other, wondering what the general's intention was.
Tian Luchao said loudly: "I know clearly that there are tigers in the mountains, so I prefer to go to Tiger Mountains."
At this time, snowflakes were flying in the sky.
The white hexagonal snowflakes and the black dust caused by burning houses were mixed in the sky, forming a strange scene that was so chilling.
Officers wearing yellow woolen army coats and holding sabers stood in clusters in front of the general.
Behind him, although he could not understand the general's intention, the feeling of wind and rustling naturally spread.
So majestic!
The Korean translator was so moved by this scene that he almost shed tears.
Major General Tian Lu actually had a very simple idea.
Chen Zikun planned to eliminate himself, so why not take advantage of his plan and march forward bravely to destroy the enemy.
Although the Chinese are very particular about war and love to play tricks, in the face of strong strength, all conspiracies and tricks are ridiculous.
The enemy's direction was clear, and Major General Tian Lu ordered his troops to attack Niumazhuang.
He would first level the Eighth Route Army's base area, and then go into the mountains to eliminate Chen Zikun and solve the security problem in Jiangbei once and for all.
The 800 Japanese troops advanced forward like rolling iron barrels, with scouts at the front and cover on both wings.
They moved in a very organized manner.
The harassing guerrilla troops could only look around like flies for a chance to bite, but they could not hurt the Japanese troops.
Main force.
When the Japanese army entered Niumazhuang, it was already the afternoon of the second day.
Artillery fire was still clearing the way.
Infantry assaults rushed into the deserted village and burned all the houses to the ground.
Niumazhuang was a barren small village at the foot of Daqing Mountain.
The houses were It was made of adobe rocks and covered with thatch.
There had just been a sleet and the thatch was wet.
It could not be lit with a match.
The Japanese army poured gasoline on it to light the fire.
The people on the mountain cried when they saw their homes where they had lived for generations being burned.
When the Eighth Route Army commanders and fighters saw that the base they had finally established turned into a sea of flames, they gritted their teeth with hatred and wished they could rush out immediately to eliminate the enemy.
The Japanese army burned down Niumazhuang and began to prepare for the encirclement and suppression in the mountains.
The planes were dispatched first to conduct reconnaissance over Daqing Mountain.
When they saw smoke or people moving below, they fired a burst of machine guns.
The large-scale mobilization of troops could not be concealed by the planes.
Eye.
Reinforcements were continuously transferred from all over Jiangbei.
There were five brigades in the Tianlu Brigade, at least three of which were dispatched, including an artillery team.

A large amount of supplies were piled at the foot of the mountain.
The soldiers set up marching pots and took away the stolen livestock.
The poultry was boiled and eaten.
Although Major General Tian Lu strictly prohibited torture of prisoners, the officers below still secretly captured many women and used them as comfort women.
The military police even pretended not to know when they saw this.
Seeing the enemy raging at the foot of the mountain, the guerrillas were powerless.
Firstly, they had no long-range weapons, and secondly, their troops were weak.
The slightest movement would lead to artillery fire.
Chen Zikun personally scouted the enemy's situation at the foot of the mountain.
He held up his binoculars and looked for a long time.
He pointed at a tent in the middle of the Japanese barracks at the foot of the mountain and said: "The field road is right there."
Wu Changqing also raised his telescope and saw a radio antenna erected near the big tent, with officers carrying sabers coming in and out.
It should be a Japanese command post.
"General Chen means to fuck him," Wu Changqing tried.
Chen Zikun shook his head: "Tian Lu is much more cunning than I thought.
He is a tough guy, fights stupidly, follows a step-by-step approach, and makes no mistakes at all.
If a death squad is sent out, he will probably be wiped out before he even gets close."
Wu Changqing said: "Didn't we seize a lot of Japanese coats?
We disguised ourselves as Japanese soldiers and sneaked in during the dark to catch them off guard.
As long as we can destroy the enemy's command post, it would be worth it even if we all sacrifice our lives."
Chen Zikun still shook his head: "This is the Japanese regular army.
The night defense measures are very complete.
Do you know the various passwords?
Do you speak Japanese?
If you are not careful, you will be exposed.
The risk is too great."
Wu Changqing said: "Then there is nothing we can do?"
Chen Zikun said: "There is really no other way, unless we have a long-range cannon.
If we fire here, we can blow up the Japanese command post with one shot."
The guerrillas have no heavy weapons, not even small mountain cannons.
The most powerful thing is the grenade, but this thing has a short range and low power, so it is of no use at all.
Wu Changqing thought of the 88-meter cannon and couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if the German cannon could be used.
We still have one shell."
Liu Xiaoyong happened to come over and heard them talking about German artillery.
He couldn't help but asked: "We have artillery."
Chen Zikun said: "We made an 88 gun without a breech.
You didn't know about it.
By the way, you were not in Kushuijing that day."
Liu Xiaoyong said: "It's normal to have no gun breech.
When Beitai fell, the artillery blew up some 88 guns.
The last one was out of explosives, so they took off the gun breech and found a place to bury it."
Chen Zikun said: "You know where it is buried?"
Liu Xiaoyong said: "I know, just bury it in the City Hall Square."
"Quick, take a few capable people down the mountain to dig out the breech block.
If you have any difficulties, ask Xiao Lang to solve them.

You must be quick."
Liu Xiaoyong led three brothers down the mountain quickly.
This place was more than a hundred miles away from Beitai, and it was impossible to run on just two legs.
Moreover, the road was full of Japanese transport vehicles and interrogators, making it difficult to move.
However, Liu Xiaoyong is very smart.
He can speak a few words in Japanese, wears a yellow woolen army coat and pretends to be a Japanese officer.
On the road, he stops an empty car returning to Beitai.
He comes to Beitai without any hindrance, finds Xiao Lang, and successfully In the sewer of City Hall Square, I found the breech block wrapped in moisture-proof tarpaulin.
When I opened it, I found it was still shiny.
The return trip still took a Japanese military transport vehicle, and the round trip only took twelve hours.
When the breech block was brought, Lao Zhang was inexplicably excited.
He held it in his hand and stroked it up and down, smacking his lips and exclaiming: "The German stuff is really good."
The cannon was too heavy to pull up the mountain.
It was hidden at the foot of the mountain and covered with branches.
How to pull it to a suitable firing position became the biggest problem.
The guerrillas dispatched two hundred strong men, who took turns pulling cannons up the mountain.
The cannon was so heavy that after being dismantled, each component was still extremely heavy.
Dozens of men could not pull it.
The mountain road was rugged, and we did not dare to pull it during the day, so we could only use it at night.
It was simply difficult to reach the sky.
But in order to fight against the Japanese invaders, Everyone worked hard, shirtless in the middle of winter, with hemp ropes tied on the soles of their shoes to prevent them from slipping.
They shouted step by step and carried the shoes up with all their strength, pulling them forward and lifting them.
Everyone's fingers and shoulders were shaking.
He was strangled with a rope and bled.
The sound of the trumpet spread very far at night, and Major General Tian Lu in the barracks also heard the strange sound.
He walked out of the tent with the stove burning, looked up at the vast mountains in the darkness, and remained silent for a long time.
A staff officer came over and said, "Sir, what are the Chinese people shouting?"
"Shouting to the mountain is an ancient ritual used to express respect for the mountain god."
Major General Tian Lu said.
The staff officer suddenly realized: "So, it turns out they are praying to the mountain god."
Major General Tian Lu suddenly laughed and patted the young staff officer on the shoulder: "Actually, I just made a wild guess."
After that, he went into the tent by himself.
The staff officer scratched his head: "That's right."
Major General Xindao is really funny sometimes.
He entered the tent holding his saber and asked: "Your Excellency, when will we launch the attack?"
Major General Tian Lu frowned and said: "I originally wanted to continue to exert pressure and wait for another heavy snowfall to trap them to death.
Now it seems that we will attack tomorrow."
"Hai, I'll pass on the order right now."
The staff officer saluted and went out.
Tian Lu pondered intently.
It was probably not a good sign for the Chinese to make such a shocking cry at night.
The cannon was about to reach the top of the mountain, and everyone was exhausted.
Chen Zikun came in person to cheer everyone up.
When they were only ten meters away, a huge black blind man suddenly emerged from the woods.
Many people know that there are no bears in winter.

This adult male bear probably lived in a nearby cave.
The men's slogans disturbed his hibernating dream, so he angrily came out of the cave to see what was going on.
The incident happened suddenly, and everyone was stunned, but no one flinched.
If you relaxed at this time and the cannon slid down the mountain, all your previous efforts would have been wasted.
Some people took out their guns and wanted to shoot the bear, but Chen Zikun stopped them and tried to He shouted: "Da Zhuang" The male bear roared lowly, obviously recognizing its old owner.
Chen Zikun's worried heart was relieved, and he pointed at the cannon and said, "Big Zhuang, help us carry it."
Then everyone saw this extremely heavy black bear crawling down slowly, its two huge paws holding up the base of the cannon, and everyone suddenly felt that their shoulders were much lighter.
Good guy, this bear can bear the strength of at least five people.
With the help of Da Zhuang, the 88 gun was finally pulled up to the firing position.
The ground was leveled, and branches were placed as cover.
The breech block was installed, and it fit tightly.
Lao Zhang temporarily made some aiming mechanisms with iron sheets and installed them.
It worked, so the 88mm artillery shell was brought in and polished to a brilliant shine.
At dawn, Japanese reconnaissance planes once again flew across the sky and dropped a leaflet.
In the past few days, the Japanese army had used tactics to persuade them to surrender.
They dropped tens of thousands of leaflets alone, and they were all used as wiping paper by the soldiers.
The Japanese troops began to gather at the foot of the mountain.
A dense yellow figure lined up in front of the headquarters tent, probably waiting for the officer to issue an order.
If the opportunity was not lost, Chen Zikun hurriedly ordered the firing.
The gunner was Liu Xiaoyong.
He was the best gunner among the guerrillas, but he had never used this kind of German artillery.
The 88 gun was an anti-aircraft gun with a straight trajectory.
It did not fire in a straight direction like a howitzer.
It could be aimed directly, but We also need to consider the altitude of the mountain, the shooting distance, the wind speed, the quality of the shells, whether the barrel is deformed, etc.
In short, various reasons will affect the shooting effect.
If the shot misses, there will be no second shell.
Chen Zikun, Chen Shougai, Longquan Wu Changqing Ye Xuefeng, Zhao Ziming and others all came to the firing position.
Zhao Ziming said anxiously: "Why don't you fire yet?
If you can't do it, I will do it."
Liu Xiaoyong said: "What if the shot is not accurate?"
Chen Zikun said: "Just fire, if you can't hit me, it's my fault."
At the same time, he said silently in his heart: "God bless you."
Liu Xiaoyong loaded the cannonball into the barrel, closed the breech, gritted his teeth, and pulled the gun rope.
There was a loud noise, and the 88mm caliber artillery shell was fired out.
A ball of orange-red muzzle flame rose from the muzzle, and everyone felt their eardrums vibrate
