What was the process of the second stage of the Hundred Regiments War?

After a bitter struggle, the Eighth Route Army captured Yuci County, annihilated more than 400 Japanese squadron leaders, and seized 12 guns, 17 light and heavy machine guns and more than 200 rifles.

At dawn on September 27th, the right-wing team attacked Shixia, west of Liao County. Fierce fighting continued until dark, and the commander of the Eighth Route Army occupied Shi Xia.

On September 28, the left-wing team and the right-wing team adjusted their deployment and prepared to cooperate with the newly compiled 10 brigade to attack Liao County. At this time, the Japanese troops stationed in Heshun and Wuxiang were dispatched at the same time to assist Liao County. Due to the change of the enemy's situation, the Eighth Route Army headquarters ordered the troops to stop attacking Liao County, with one force to contain the enemy in the south, and the rest of the troops were dispatched to ambush the Japanese army in Hongyatou and Guandi. 129 division organized the transfer of troops according to the order of the Eighth Route Army headquarters, and captured the key Japanese stronghold at 24: 00 on the 29th.

On September 30th, the weather was fine. At 9 o'clock in the morning, the left-wing 386 brigade troops entered the Nanshan District to the south of Hongyatou. When the officers and men of the 2nd Regiment of the right-wing 385th Brigade were marching into the ambush area, more than 600 Japanese troops sent by Wuxiang accidentally entered the scheduled ambush area, and the Japanese vanguard troops happened to meet the right-wing officers and men on the way. When the two armies meet, the brave wins. The Eighth Route Army has a fine style of fighting bravely. The officers and men of the 385th Brigade met with the Japanese army on the way, and soon occupied favorable terrain and launched a fierce battle with the Japanese army. The left-wing 386 Brigade quickly launched an attack on the rear and flank of the Japanese army.

The Japanese command learned that the reinforcements encountered the Eighth Route Army on the way and were surrounded by the Western Front, and immediately dispatched eight planes to cover them. Seeing the plane hovering in the air, the besieged Japanese army ordered the troops to seize the surrounding highlands and fight back. The Eighth Route Army commanders launched more than 10 attacks on the besieged Japanese army in succession, fighting for dozens of hours and killing hundreds of Japanese troops. The rest of the Japanese army continued to resist by relying on the favorable terrain that had been occupied.

Just as the two armies were in a state of confrontation in the temporary position, Japanese reinforcements arrived. It turned out that running all the way, more than 500 Japanese troops from Heshun and Liaoxian, launched a fierce attack on the sniper position of Langya Mountain. The officers and men of the 32nd Regiment, who were tasked with blocking, took advantage of favorable terrain, loyal opposition. Seeing that it was difficult to break through from the front, the Japanese army made a detour to the rear of the main position of Langya Mountain with its main force, posing a serious threat to the Eighth Route Army as a sniper. On the morning of September 3 1 Sunday 10, the Japanese army broke through the blocking position of Langya Mountain and approached the command post of the left-wing team.

The Eighth Route Army headquarters saw that the Japanese troops in Liao County and Wuxiang had joined forces, and more than 1000 Japanese troops in Yangquan had arrived in the area north of Liao County. Great changes have taken place in the battlefield situation, and it is decided to end the battle of Liao Yu. After the troops withdrew from the battle, Yuci was occupied by the Japanese again.

On October 5th, 65438/KLOC-0, Liu Bocheng informed Zong, the head of the 32nd regiment, Li Zhen, the political commissar, and Zhou, the deputy head, to report the battle situation in Langya Mountain to the headquarters. Three people with a heavy heart thought that they would be criticized by Liu Bocheng. Who knows Liu Bocheng enthusiastically said, please come, mainly to sum up combat experience. At noon, Liu Bocheng told them at the dinner table: "Go back and tell everyone that the troops are playing very well. We should encourage them more and don't criticize them easily. Cadres should stress unity, sum up experience and lessons, and don't blame each other. You are still young. Don't carry a burden just because you didn't do a good job. It's a long way to go in Xiu Yuan, learning military knowledge, learning strategy and tactics. This is especially important for commanders above the regiment level. " Liu Bocheng's words, earnest, is both a summary and a requirement. They spoke the voices of the three commanders and were a profound mobilization to win the next battle.

65438+1October 65438+April, a Japanese transport unit marched on the highway from Heshun to Liao County. After learning this information, the Eighth Route Army set an ambush in Gongjiagou in advance. The Japanese motorcade was hit hard when it passed the ambush area of the Eighth Route Army, and more than 40 cars were destroyed.

In the Battle of Liao Yu, the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army was annihilated by the Eighth Route Army129th Division, and nearly 1000 people were annihilated, only1000 people survived. In Yuci City, the Japanese army stored enough grain, socks, grain, weapons and ammunition for one year, all of which were captured by the Eighth Route Army.

After He Long received the telegram from the Eighth Route Army headquarters, considering that the Japanese army in northwestern Shanxi was being badly beaten by our army, he should seize the fighter plane and continue to fight. The troops don't have to stay until September 20th. Therefore, He Long asked Peng whether 120 Division could start the operation on September 15 in advance.

Peng read He Long's telegram and fully agreed with120th Division's plan to break the Tongpu Railway in Xinning section on September15th. Earlier, Peng pointed out in his reply to He Long: "Recently, the enemy of Reinforcing Road is fighting against the group in Lunan, and Nie Group in the north of the road has recently recovered the strongholds of Huili Village, Village and Sing Tao, and is besieging Yuxian. It would be good for you to take this opportunity to break the blow (if it can be a few days earlier). "

In order to cooperate with the operations in Lai Ling and Liao Yu, the division commander 120 decided to organize troops to attack the northern section of Tongpu Road again, requiring the 358th brigade to attack the section from Yuanping to Ningwu, the single brigade to attack the section from Xinxian to Yuanping, and the special forces to cover the rear contact. In the battle, all the troops on the front line were under the command of the 358 brigade.

On September 14, the 358th Brigade set out from the west of Loufan and assembled in Majiagou. Since the Hundred Regiments War, after the Tongpu Railway was attacked by the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese army gathered troops and set up various obstacles in some important positions on both sides of the railway. This time, the Eighth Route Army must first clear the obstacles set by the Japanese and puppet troops on the way forward.

At midnight on September 18, officers and men of the 7th and 8th regiments and the special service battalion under the 358th Brigade began to attack Toumaying. Considering the possible reinforcements of the Japanese army, the brigade commander took the spy battalion to attack the Toumaying stronghold, and the 7 th and 8 th regiments ambushed the areas where the Japanese army might reinforce. After the fighting started, more than 40 Japanese troops in Ninghuabao reinforced Toumaying at dawn on June 5438+09. When they arrived at Shanzhai Village, they were surrounded by the Seventh and Eighth Regiments of the Eighth Route Army and were completely annihilated. Plan a battle well before the war and victory will come faster.

On the night of September 16, the first independent brigade crossed the Fenhe River. On 18, more than 400 Japanese troops who had just entered Shangzhuang stronghold were surrounded and launched an attack on 13. They fought fiercely until the early morning of 19, and the main brigade withdrew from the battle and carried out new offensive tasks. In this battle, the only brigade killed or injured about 200 Japanese soldiers, with its own casualties 105.

On the night of September 22nd, the 4th Regiment of the 358th Brigade, together with the Division's Special Service Corps, carried out an attack between Jialing and Xuangang on Tongpu Railway.

The second regiment attacked the puppet army stronghold of Qicun Day. On September 25th, 7 15 Regiment destroyed the railway between Daniudian and Xuangang.

120 division officers and men after several days of destruction, effectively hit the Japanese aggressors, Tongpu railway traffic was interrupted again, and the Japanese army suffered heavy losses.

1940 10 15 When the Japanese North China Army reported the situation to the Japanese military province, it had to admit that "the damage scope and scale of the Shitai Line are far from comparable in other places."

The North China Army recorded in the operational records at that time: "The * * Army entrenched in North China, according to the deployment of Zhu De, commander-in-chief of the 18th Army, launched the so-called Hundred Regiments War, and at the same time raided our transportation lines and production bases (mainly mines) on the night of August 20th in Showa/KLOC-5. Especially in Shanxi, its potential is very fierce. At the same time, the troops stationed in the northern section of Shitai Road and Tongpu Road were attacked, and railways, bridges and communication facilities were destroyed, which completely destroyed the equipment in Jingxing Coal Mine. The attack was completely unexpected to our army and caused great losses. It takes a long time and a lot of money to resume construction. "

In the second stage of the Hundred Regiments War, there were many tough battles, but fewer attacks than in the first stage. The battles of Lai Ling and Liao Yu dealt a great blow to the Japanese army. Due to the fierce fighting, the casualties of the participating troops increased. Because the overall situation of the war has not yet developed to the stage of sticking to important towns, the Eighth Route Army failed to attack Laiyuan, and the troops were dispatched in time to carry out the attack. With the change of the enemy's situation, I gave up some Japanese strongholds that I conquered, and instead sought fighters in the movement and annihilated the Japanese and puppet troops in guerrilla warfare. This not only puts me in an active position, but also puts the Japanese army in a passive position. More importantly, I innovated campaign tactics in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's practice and enriched the treasure house of war art.

1940 10 10. On 2 October, Peng, Zuo Quan, Luo Ruiqing, Lu and others telephoned "all regiments to report to the General Political Department of the Military Commission" to affirm their achievements in the campaign. The cable pointed out: "The Hundred Regiments War won great victories in the first and second stages, opened up a new record of large-scale attack on North China, proved that the enemy's communication lines and strongholds were unbreakable, greatly weakened, suppressed and fatigued the enemy, invigorated the whole country, improved the status of our party and army, cracked down on the capitulators, consolidated and developed the base areas, exercised the party, government, army and people, improved the combat effectiveness of the troops, and guaranteed.

At the same time, the telegram said, "At present, the enemy is concentrating on attacking Annan, Yunnan and Chongqing, which is a good opportunity to carry out the war in North China. Our task is to make persistent efforts to expand our victory. Only in this way can we attract a large number of enemies, truly undermine their strategic plans to attack Kunming, Chongqing and Xi 'an, and strive for a better situation. Only in this way can we really narrow the enemy-occupied areas and consolidate the anti-Japanese base areas. "
