After capturing Beiping City, the North China militia column was busy plundering the wealth of the traitors and the Japanese, while doing business with these foreign consuls who also made a smile. Considering that they had found a lot of money from Japanese banks and merchants this time, Deng Chenggong was busy selling things, and also purchased machinery and equipment from these countries to further enhance the industrial foundation of the militia column.

How could consular officials from various countries refuse such a business that makes money but also favors?

Looking at the orders that Deng Chenggong had thrown, the consular officials from all countries felt that for so long they had come to China, and no one would have been more cute than this young Chinese general. Some of the materials that were originally embargoed were considered as embargo, considering that Deng Chenggong had saved their lives and gave them a lot of benefits, these consular officials patted their chests and agreed to buy them as much as possible for Deng Chenggong to do so.

The militia in Peking City were busy making money and spending money happily, and under pressure from one telegram after another, they rushed to recover the Japanese 21st Division, which was a big trouble. Not to mention the ambush of a small militia column along the way, they were worried every day when they marched on the road, for fear of stepping on landmines or bombs.

The entire division had more than 20,000 people from the division, from being energetic when they came to support, to now, they had to draw the puppet troops from nearby every day to lead the way. Eventually, when they learned that the Japanese were using the puppet troops to open the way, they would never dare to ask for this errand that was enough to lose their heads and ran away.

This made Lieutenant General Tajiki of the 21st Division of the Japanese Army very angry. Every time the confidential officer who came with a telegram, he was in a bad mood and was cut down by the division commander who was in a manic state. If it weren't for the chief of staff of the division, the confidential officers of the division would probably have escaped.

When the Japanese 21st Division finally entered the boundary of Beiping and entered Fangshan, the Japanese, who had not closed their eyes for two days, could not bear it and strongly asked for a day to rest before continuing on the road. When General Tian Jiuyi saw that the soldiers of his division were indeed exhausted, he finally ignored the urging message sent by Ning Ji, Gang Village, and ordered the troops to set up camp in Fangshan District for a day of repair and rest.

The next day, he continued to advance towards Beiping. After all, the situation detected by their Japanese army was that the militia column that captured Beiping did not leave. As long as he had a good rest, Tian Jiuyi was confident that he would enter Beiping within one day and defeat the militia column that had both troubled the Japanese army in North China.

In addition to the 21st Division of the Japanese Army, a Japanese mixed brigade unit from Chengde, North China has also arrived at the boundary of Peking. The mixed brigade, which was also attacked by blockades along the way, was also repaired after entering the Peking area like the 21st Division. They agreed with the 21st Division that they would encircle and clear the siege force that made their Japanese army lose all their faces.

However, compared with the nearly 50,000 Japanese reinforcements, with the idea of ​​surrounding Deng Chenggong's troops, he also received news that the Japanese reinforcements from the second route had arrived at Deng Chenggong's territory. He immediately generated a power to Hu Hao of the militia's Northeast Division, asking him to lead the reorganized Northeast Division to be responsible for defeating the reinforcements from Chengde.

After ambushing the Japanese mixed brigade from Chengde, they did not have to take into account the situation in Peking and advanced directly to the Northeast Liao Province through Qian'an through North China. As for their short-term activity and supply base, it was Qian'an area where the vast elite troops of the North China Militia Column had already assembled.

If the battle in Liao Province is not smooth, you can retreat to Qian'an area to fight behind enemy lines. In short, Hu Hao's newly renovated Northeast Division is a role in opening the way and attracting the main reinforcements of the Japanese army. As for the Civilian Division and Artillery Division led by Deng Chenggong, as well as the majority of the armored divisions, they have already set up a network to wait for the arrival of the Japanese 21st Division.

This time, Deng Chenggong had decided that not only would Peking City bring all the Japanese to the Japanese, but this 21st Division, which could be called a tired army, would also not be able to escape the fate of being ambushed.

Only by defeating these two reinforcements, the elite troops of their militia columns could re-enter the Japanese and let the Japanese blind their whereabouts again. As for the troops left in the city of Peiping, they had long been replaced by militia regiments nearby who came to transport supplies. The real main force of the First Division had already joined the artillery division and armored division with the early evacuation.

The Japanese saw that the troops still stayed in Beiping City were just second-tier troops coming from the surrounding area to pretend to be the main force. This lack of intelligence will inevitably lead to heavy casualties from the Japanese. In a sense, Deng Chenggong has transformed from a simple special forces soldier into an excellent commanding officer who truly has the command of large corps.

The same has been moved to Beiping City, Deng Chenggong knew that it was time to tease the Japanese who were preparing to rest. He ordered the cavalry brigade and part of the armored division in the city to set off overnight to march towards Tongxian that night, and to join the main force of the Northeast Division, which also had a complete plan to relocate.

The main tasks they undertake are to concentrate superior forces to eliminate the Japanese mixed brigade from Chengde as much as possible, and to attract the attention of the Japanese. Let the Japanese misjudgment the troops with cavalry and armored soldiers, which is the main force of the column attacking Beiping City.

The one who felt most reluctant to leave Deng Chenggong was not the people in the city. Because the people who were willing to leave, they followed the militia troops out of the city during the relocation operation a few days ago. The people who refused to leave were more reluctant to leave the foundation in the city. Of course, there were few such people. It can be said that in this case, in addition to the Japanese civilians who were detained, the number of Chinese people in Beiping City was very small.

Of course, there are also foreigners who seem reluctant to leave when Deng Chenggong's troops are preparing to evacuate. As for the revenge of the Japanese, the consular officials who have received the Japanese promise to protect them, they have no such concern. If the Japanese dare to do anything to them after taking over Peking, I believe that the government behind them will not let go of these dissatisfied Japanese governments easily.

The militia column army left the city overnight, so naturally they could not escape the Japanese intelligence officer who had been monitoring them. Just as the Japanese 12th Division set up camp and was about to rest, a telegram of "the militia column army was about to escape", which once again interrupted their plan to rest.

The Japanese army, who had finally eaten dinner and prepared to rest, had to cheer up again and continue to rush towards Beiping, because no one could guarantee whether the main force of the militia column that had left at night would disappear in one night. You should know that there are still many places near Beiping where these main forces can hide.

If the Japanese headquarters investigated the fighter plane because of their rest, the commanders who were responsible for the main tasks of regaining Peking and clearing out the North China militia column would inevitably be kicked out by the senior generals of the headquarters who were angry and angry.

When he learned that the main force of the militia column was moving towards Tongxian, the army seemed to be heading towards the Japanese mixed brigade that came to aid, Lieutenant General Tatsukita, the 21st Division of the Japanese Army, guessed that Deng Chenggong's troops should think that fighting the mixed brigade was easier than fighting his main Japanese division.

While ordering the mixed brigade of Chengde to be vigilant, they also require them to block the militia column's advance eastward. Otherwise, once they escape from the boundaries of Beiping and enter the rural areas in northeastern North China, they will probably be much more difficult than they are now.

Because it was a marching at night, the Japanese army could not dispatch planes to reconnaissance, and they could only rely on the Japanese intelligence officers who followed far away to provide route intelligence. Unfortunately, these single-handed Japanese intelligence officers, facing the militia column, sent many cavalry personnel to carry out guard missions along the road, the Japanese reconnaissance officers could not rely on reconnaissance at all. They could only hang far behind the main militia force and provide corresponding intelligence support to the reinforcements of the second route.

Tajiki, who was sitting in the command car studying the map, used the intelligence feedback from the intelligence forces to infer that this main militia unit was likely to be the same as he realized. He concentrated his superior forces to defeat the reinforcements of the Japanese military brigade regiment in Chengde, thereby opening up the road to the northeastern base.

To this end, while General Tian Kuoyi fed back the information to Gangmura Yanji, asking him to order the mixed brigade to block the enemy, he also decided that the troops would directly pass through the Fengtai area of ​​Peking to directly lead to the Tongxian area to pursue and suppress the main militia force. As long as the Japanese mixed brigade in Chengde could hold the main militia force, they would definitely defeat the main militia force under the attack on both sides.

As for the recovery of Beiping City, in his opinion, Beiping City, which is no longer defended by the main militia, can be defeated by sending an infantry brigade when passing by. After all, once the militia column evacuates these recovered towns, there will be pitiful few defensive forces left.

This common sense was also confirmed by the feedback from Japanese intelligence officers outside the city of Peking. There are not many militia troops stationed in Beiping City now, and they stay in the city and are more relocation and evacuation work. If it weren't for the fact that there were no Japanese troops near Beiping City, it would be estimated that the Japanese troops stationed in a county would be able to take over the Beiping City, which has no main force defense.

As the main militia forces gathered in Tongxian area and continued to advance to the northeast, Tian Kuichi felt that his speculation was indeed correct. The main militia forces were indeed aiming to flee to the rural areas of the northeast. While telling the Japanese military brigade that had stopped marching, he also ordered the main troops of the division to speed up the marching speed and try to catch up with the main militia forces that fled madly as soon as possible.

The Japanese, who had finally rested for several hours, could only raise their energy again in the face of the urging of the division commander and commanders at all levels, and rushed to the road desperately. If they hadn't been marching with their division and had a lot of cars to carry on, they would probably have been unable to march.
