A gentle gust of wind awakens the body that has been sleeping for a thousand years; a gentle gust of wind blows away the mysterious veil of history. Standing on the shoulders of time, I talk to history.
Speaking of the history of our country's War of Resistance, I believe that many people hate the aggressors to the teeth, and during that period there were also countless heroes and good men who guarded the country, and it was their efforts and sacrifices that enabled us to live a stable and harmonious life. When the Japanese army heard his name, they would be afraid of three points, and every time they encountered a battle with Fang Xianjue, they would want to avoid him.
Fang Xianjue's battle of fame was naturally the famous Battle of Hengyang, which made him famous and became a famous hero of the War of Resistance. Fang Xianjue was born in an ordinary family in Jiangsu Province, coinciding with the chaotic world, he joined the army when he was still young, and he was heroic and successful on the battlefield. In the Pacific Theater in 1944, Japan suffered heavy casualties but was not willing, so it planned to finally fight and set its target on Hengyang, China, in order to win this battle, Japan invested a lot of financial resources and troops, and then did not expect to meet Fang Xianjue.
At that time, the Japanese army suddenly attacked, Fang Xianjue received orders to garrison Hengyang, originally the initial order was only to let him hold on for seven days, but at that time he was thinking of something else in his heart, and his mind wandered for 47 days. Fang Xianjue was still very depressed when he heard this number, his own soldiers were only more than 10,000, how could he resist the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Japanese army for more than a month? Fang Xianjue originally wanted to confirm with his superiors, but the emergency situation was too late, and the war began. Fang Xianjue's communication with his superiors was cut off, and he could not contact each other at all, in this case, he could only obey the orders of his superiors and stick to the Hengyang area.
The Japanese army has long been prepared for this battle, and it has an inevitable position for Hengyang, and it has directly sent 90,000 main troops as soon as it comes up, followed by the Japanese air force, which wants to solve Hengyang in the fastest way. The Japanese army also showed no mercy to the outer positions of Hengyang, and after launching a general offensive, it opened a number of support points, and launched a series of charge battles against Hengyang, and our army and the Japanese army launched a fierce struggle in Hengyang.
In the face of such a fierce attack by the Japanese army, Fang Xianjue was well aware of the difficulty of this time, even so he did not flinch at all, no matter what the situation, he and his soldiers were dead set on Hengyang. After a week-long fierce attack by the Japanese army, the Japanese army never made any progress, which was completely different from the situation they expected to take Hengyang in a week.
In order to end the battle as soon as possible, they dispatched air support and carried out a fierce bombardment of Hengyang. The soldiers who insisted on staying in Hengyang suffered heavy casualties, but even so, none of them took the initiative to go to the battlefield alive, and they all fought until the last moment. Due to the huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and the fact that the equipment of the Japanese army was much more advanced than that of our army, Fang Xianjue, as the commander-in-chief, fought this battle extremely difficultly.
However, under the insistence of Fang Xianjue and his soldiers, the Japanese army was always unable to move forward, and the Japanese army chose to temporarily retreat to replenish its troops. After that, the Japanese army launched another attack, and Fang Xianjue's troops could no longer confront the Japanese army head-on, so they had to cover the city and carry out defensive battles. In this way, Fang Xianjue and the Japanese army continued to fight for 47 days, and the strength of our army was greatly weakened, and even the logistics cooks and grooms were sent to the battlefield, just to defend the last line of defense. The Japanese army continued to attack without interruption, and Fang Xianjue had to temporarily surrender to the Japanese army in order to save the last bit of strength, and this fierce Battle of Hengyang ended.
Although Fang Xianjue temporarily chose to surrender, but his battle achievements can not be ignored, his Tenth Army has reached the limit, relying on more than 10,000 troops, more than half of which are still new soldiers, but it has defended the Japanese army's nearly 100,000 troops for 47 days of attack, it has to be said that it is already very powerful.
In this battle, we killed and wounded 17,000 people, eliminated 50,000 Japanese troops, and the tragic battle situation was called the "Moscow Defense War in the East", although the Japanese army temporarily won, but it had a tragic price. Fang Xianjue's ability and spirit had a great impact on the Japanese army, making Japan cry bitterly, allowing the Japanese army to appreciate the iron-blooded spirit of our army, and this indomitable spirit of fighting to the end also made the Japanese army admire.
