When the explosive pack had intimate contact with the fortress, Second Lieutenant Ishihara and the people in the fortress felt a "buzzing". His eyes began to flash with stars, and his ears seemed to be unable to hear anything. As for the explosive pack flying to the top of the fortress, the puppet army and the Japanese who were hiding from the rooftop were directly bleeding from the seven orifices by the scattered shock waves.

When Second Lieutenant Ishihara woke up from his confused state, he saw militias that had already rushed out of the fortress with a rush. When these militias saw Second Lieutenant Ishihara was still alive and were about to let him put down his weapons and surrender, Second Lieutenant Ishihara wanted to sort out a military appearance, but was shot dead by a militia.

The Japanese strongholds that were originally difficult for guerrillas to snatch were removed by these scattered guerrillas and second-line militia units, like coordinating tobaccos and shabby tanks. The Japanese and puppet troops, who concentrated the large forces near Datong City, did not dare to send troops to support the phone calls for support from these strongholds. They could only let the Japanese and puppet troops in these strongholds carry out defensive and counterattacks as much as possible.

This practice undoubtedly made the Japanese army in the strongholds outside the city know that they were abandoned. When some puppet troops had more strongholds, they found an opportunity to escape when they learned that the superiors did not send troops to rescue them. Those who were more brave would find an opportunity to escape, and those who were more brave would vent their anger in the fortress. Before the militia and guerrillas could attack, they took advantage of the large number of people and powerful forces to counterattack the Japanese in the strongholds, and surrendered to the militia and guerrillas in the form of an uprising in front of the formation, hoping to preserve their lives as much as possible.

As the Baozi Town stronghold was removed, Lieutenant General Aoki watched his outer defense strongholds being removed by standard one by one. He looked like a defense circle distributed on the military map of Datong. He knew that the main force of the division he arranged in Datong was like a lonely army waiting for the militia troops to fight.

However, he still underestimated the delay time of the main militia troops. He thought that the main force of the Jinsui Army entering Datong would start attacking Datong. However, the main force of the three divisions forced a whirlwind on their outer defensive positions and headed straight to several major military centers near Datong to attack, and seemed to have the intention to trap them directly without fighting.

If the attack of the second-line troops of the Datong militia could only make the Japanese army in Datong feel uncomfortable, then the attack of the three main divisions made these Japanese troops finally realize the terribleness of the militia column. Faced with the permanent fortifications they had already built, the artillery and rocket launchers of the militia troops became the nightmare for these defensive Japanese troops.

Especially in accordance with Deng Chenggong's instructions, the flame spearmen who had just joined the main division faced the Japanese who were hiding in underground fortifications and fought stubbornly, a flame spear was directly sprayed out, burning the oxygen in the underground tunnel. Many Japanese hiding in the tunnel were suffocated to death, and the Japanese rushing out naturally could not escape the militia waiting for the shooting behind.

Seeing these important military cities being defeated by the front of the militia's main force, Lieutenant General Aoki, who was trapped in Datong, wanted to send troops to support him. However, every time the reinforcements sent were either killed and injured and left to escape. Or after leaving the city, they could never hear any news about them being surrounded and annihilated by the militia reserve forces looking for fighter planes outside the city.

Until the Chief of Staff realized that sending troops to support this way would be useless and would only continuously consume the defensive forces in the city. Lieutenant General Aoki finally stopped this useless support and called the Taiyuan Dispatch Command for the first time to request the headquarters to send troops to support. In addition, in order to prevent the main militia troops from continuing to attack the surrounding county towns unscrupulously, he asked Japanese aircraft near Taiyuan to support the operation.

After receiving a telegram from Datong, Commander Iwamatsu of the Japanese army did not dare to send reinforcements from Taiyuan to the city, worried about problems in Taiyuan. For this reason, he ordered the Japanese troops from Shuozhou and Xinzhou to draw elite division troops from the combat series of various places to Datong to support him.

Although the number of Japanese aircraft stayed at Taiyuan Airport was not large, they still followed the instructions of the commander Yansong and began to search for the main militia forces of the militia to carry out bombing. But they forgot that the main militia divisions had certain air defense forces, and this time, three main divisions were operating at the same time, and their air defense firepower almost reached several air defense regiments under the jurisdiction of the Artillery Division.

Faced with the attack of these aircraft, the air defense battalions of the three divisions were all concentrated to defend. Faced with such powerful air defense firepower, the aircraft coming to assist did not dare to lower the altitude bombing. In the end, there was no way, and the Japanese aircraft coming to assist could only pour bombs in the aircraft warehouse at high altitude.

This kind of bombing with almost no target can cause any damage to the militia. Even if it is a little bit accurate, it throws the bomb into the Japanese defensive position in the county town, blowing its own people up in a mess.

Facing the Japanese reinforcements from Xinzhou and Shuozhou, the three main divisions began to arrange defensive positions in the direction of Datong, cooperated with the local militia troops, and prepared to block these Japanese troops coming to aid. As for the 31st Division, after recapturing the large and small counties around Datong and surrounding Datong into an isolated city, finally launched the first round of offensive battle with the cooperation of the artillery brigade of the military sub-district that arrived later.

After more than half a month of guarding, the militia finally found itself. Lieutenant General Aoki was not nervous as before the war. On the contrary, he was very happy about the shelling launched by the 31st Division and seemed to feel relieved. Because always waiting like this really made him feel aggrieved!

Unfortunately, he underestimated the actions of the siege troops outside the city. He thought that the militia siege troops would start attacking their defensive positions after the artillery attack! As a result, the 31st Division was not in a hurry at all. On the contrary, they built anti-defense fortifications under their noses. It seemed that they were not in a hurry to destroy the prepared defensive positions they built and continued to act like they were trapped in.

Just as the Japanese army from Xinzhou and Shuozhou came to help the Japanese army and began to exchange fire with the two main militia divisions after the division, the anti-Japanese armed forces in Xinzhou and Shuozhou suddenly changed their previous low-keyness and emerged from the base areas one after another, constantly attacking the stronghold targets they had not dared to attack before. Suddenly, the war in Datong was about to continue, and the two soldiers came to help the Japanese army's backyards to help the Japanese army were smoke everywhere.

Commander Iwamatsu, who was in command in Taiyuan, was very angry at the act of encircling the Datong militia troops and not attacking them, but giving the power of attack to them. When he learned that the Aoki Division in Datong was still going to confront the 31st Division outside the city, he asked the main force of the Aoki Division to launch an attack on the 31st Division outside the city. It seemed that the two sides of the offense and defense had completely changed their heads, and the main force of the militia that was originally attacking became a defensive force. Japanese reinforcements and Datong's garrison began to launch a fierce attack.

When everyone's strength is stalemate on the battlefield, the attacking side will always suffer serious losses than the defense side. Seeing the troops leaving the city to attack, countless troops will be reduced every time they come back. Lieutenant General Aoki knew that the strength of the main militia division in front of him was really not to be underestimated. Especially the 31st Division equipped with civilian rifles, facing the Japanese group charge, the gun completely formed a rain of bullets after firing. Unless they lie down immediately, they will surely die when they rushed to the defensive position of the 31st Division.

Seeing that the Jin Province was a mess and worried that reconstruction would deplete his strength, Yan Laoxi finally ordered the main force of the Jin army to cross the border of Shaanxi Province to advance to Taiyuan City, Jin Province. The sudden joining of the Jin army made Commander Yansong make a choice, and to have Taiyuan or Datong. If Taiyuan is to be wanted, then reinforcements from Xinzhou and Shuozhou must return to Taiyuan. If Datong is wanted, facing the main force of the Jin army that broke through his blockade line, Taiyuan is likely to be lost.

When such a multiple-choice question was placed in front of him, Commander Iwatsumatsu finally couldn't sit still and ordered the reinforcements of Xinzhou and Shuozhou who could not break through the defense of the two main divisions to quickly escape from the war and return to Taiyuan. As for the war in Datong, after he requested the Japanese army stationed in China, the North China Front Army would send troops to rescue him.

After receiving a telegram from the headquarters in China, Gangmura Neji, who had not fought with the militia corps for a long time, knew that he could not escape from joining the war this time. He immediately ordered a Japanese mixed brigade in Shijiazhuang to urgently take the train to enter Datong to support the battle. However, when the train that the mixed brigade was riding on was paralyzed by the bomb less than a hundred miles away from Shijiazhuang, Gangmura Neji knew that the North China Front Army was probably involved in this Datong Battle.

Fortunately, Neji of Gangmeng was prepared for a long time. He knew very well that Datong would fall into the hands of the militia army, and the Shijiazhuang important town of the North China Front Army would also become the next target of the militia army. The Japanese headquarters now ordered their North China Front Army to fully support the battle in Datong. After losing the train transportation line, he continued to order the surviving Mixed Brigade officers and soldiers to marches to support the army. At the same time, he ordered Shijiazhuang and Baoding and Xingtai troops to enter combat readiness. The North China Front Command, built in Shijiazhuang, also began to move to Peking for command.

It seemed that it was seen that the militia corps were back, and Gangmura Ningji made preparations in advance and transported some important documents and equipment from the headquarters to Peking in advance. He planned to treat Peking as the general command of the North China Front Army. As for the Japanese troops who had been in a defensive state in Shijiazhuang and Baoding, after he moved to Peking, he immediately launched an attack on the militia column.

As a result, the North China Front Army, which had always been looked down upon by the Japanese army, seemed to become arrogant. They ignored the county towns and base areas controlled by the militia corps, launched an attack on them. This caught them off guard, which was also in combat readiness.

After ordering the troops on the front line to enter the position to counterattack, Liu Shuangquan, the commander of the military sub-district, personally led the Civil Division to set off from the military sub-district base. He was preparing to clear out the Japanese troops in Xingtai near Xingtai, and a head-on attack was made. The Japanese troops in Xingtai were sobbing. When the Japanese troops who were out of the city returned to the city, they were still well-off when they came out, and they had already become the militia corps.

Losing the base of Xingtai, facing the fully launched reserve militia troops of the Southwest Military Sub-district, which were issued an attack order, these stray dogs did not even have a chance to escape. All the reserve militias that were followed were surrounded and annihilated outside Xingtai City. Xingtai, which was repeatedly captured by militia, became the first city in North China to be liberated.

The fall of Xingtai made Gangmura Yanji slightly shocked, but he thought that Xingtai itself was the place where the militia troops started. The strength of the reserve militia troops there can be said to be the quasi-main force. In addition, the previous blow from the First Minister Division, the Japanese troops in Xingtai, which lost their main force, were surrounded and annihilated.

But this is the battlefield. After Xingtai was captured, it involved the entire North China battlefield. Facing the war-torn commander of North China, Yan Song, the Japanese army dispatched by Jin Province, knew that the North China Front Army could not count on it. Datong under his jurisdiction could only abandon it and defend Taiyuan, a military important place. As long as Taiyuan is protected, he, the commander stationed in Jin Province, would not be scolded. As for Ningji, Gangcun, who was dragged into the water by him, he could only say sorry.

Anyway, this militia corps will be today, and it has a lot to do with the improper handling of the North China Front Army of Gangmeng Neji. In this regard, Iwasong and the Japanese commanders close to North China all have this mentality. In a word, Gangmeng Neji and the North China Front Army must be fully responsible for the rise of the militia corps. The saying that I am not as good as my fellow Taoists. Not only Chinese people know, these senior Japanese generals are also clear! (To be continued.
