In November 1937, Qiu Xingxiang, who had not yet washed away the smoke of the "Battle of Songhu", was ordered to lead his troops to participate in the defense of Nanjing. Shangfeng tasked Qiu Xingxiang with the 402nd Regiment of the 18th Army, which he was regimental, from Guangde in Anhui to Yixing in Jiangsu to carry out defensive operations to resist and delay the attack of the Japanese 5th Division on Nanjing.
［
Major General Qiu Xingxiang
］
Relying on the superiority of mechanized troops, the first regiment of the Japanese 5th Division had already arranged a defensive line in the sacred mountain boundary where the 402nd Regiment rushed to Yixing, with the purpose of preventing the 402nd Regiment led by Qiu Xingxiang from reaching the designated position and forcing the 402nd Regiment to retreat one step ahead.
Qiu Xingxiang reported the news of the obstruction of his advance to The Peak in time. Shangfeng's instructions to Qiu Xingxiang were that no matter what, they must break through the Japanese defense line, drive this Japanese army out of Yixing, and buy time for the deployment of other units in the entire Nanjing defense war.
After learning of this order, Qiu Xingxiang quickly led his men to go deep into the front line to reconnoiter and carefully observe the deployment of the Japanese army. Qiu Xingxiang learned that the Japanese army had established strong fortifications with its strong superiority in weapons and equipment. The topographic slopes of the Sacred Mountain Boundary are steep, thatched and overgrown, which is easy for defensive troops to conceal, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.
However, as a soldier, no matter how difficult the position is faced, you must fight the enemy without hesitation. Especially nanjing was the capital of China at that time, and her weight in the hearts of every Chinese soldier was undoubtedly very important.
It was precisely on the basis of the psychology of defending the capital and fighting for the country that after the 402nd Regiment launched an offensive against the Shenshan position, the officers and men of the regiment fought with the enemy and issued a determination to swear to die and drive away the Japanese troops occupying the Shenshan, and went forward to fight one after another.
Encouraged by high morale, Qiu Xingxiang, as the core of the whole regiment, even built the regimental command post in the forward position, so that it was convenient to grasp the battlefield situation in a timely manner and make adjustments and arrangements at any time. In addition, Qiu Xingxiang built the command post in the forward position, which also enabled the officers and men of the whole regiment to see the fighting atmosphere of the whole regiment.
After more than 6 hours of fierce fighting, under the command of Qiu Xingxiang, the officers and men of the 402nd Regiment, under the dense artillery fire and bullet rain of the Japanese army, attacked two small hills on the front of Shenshan Like a divine help, gradually compressing the Japanese army into a small area, which made Qiu Xingxiang feel that the opportunity to eliminate this Japanese army had arrived.
At this time, although the Japanese army was compressed into a narrow area, but the Japanese army's will to fight was still very tenacious, in order to capture this small area, many officers and men of the 402nd Regiment fell on the way forward, as the 402nd Regiment besieged the Japanese army more and more closely, feeling that the Japanese army that could not crush the Chinese army had to abandon its position, cangqi fled in the direction of Liyang.
Artillery units
When Qiu Xingxiang saw this, he immediately ordered his troops to pursue them, and they must not let this Japanese army escape by chance, but must be completely eliminated, let alone allow them to enter the county seat of Liyang and harm the people. After receiving Qiu Xingxiang's order, the 402nd Regiment took a big stride and chased after the defeated Japanese army, in order to prevent them from fleeing to Liyang County and then looking for an opportunity to escape.
As for why Qiu Xingxiang ordered the 402nd Regiment to eliminate this Japanese army and prevent the Japanese army from escaping to Liyang to kill indiscriminately, it also had a lot to do with Qiu Xingxiang personally, because Qiu Xingxiang was born in Liyang, liyang is the place where he grew up, how can he let the vicious Japanese army brutally slaughter the people in his hometown.
Under Qiu Xingxiang's orders, the officers and men of the 402nd Regiment re-energized their fighting spirit, quickly pursued the remnants of the Japanese army, and demanded that they surrender their guns and not kill, and chose to surrender to save their lives. Who knows, this Japanese army, which was completely brainwashed by the spirit of Bushido, saw that it was impossible to escape, and had to fight with the officers and men of the 402nd Regiment who caught up with them, and the officers and men of the 402nd Regiment, who had long hated the Japanese army to the bone, poured all the humiliation they had suffered since the "Battle of Songhu" on this Japanese army, and after a short battle, they all killed this Japanese army.
In 1940, qiu Xingxiang, in accordance with Shangfeng's arrangement, led his troops back to his hometown of Liyang, Wujin, and Yixing to fight guerrillas. Once, he sent several able scouts to the county seat of Wujin to learn about the movements of the Japanese army in order to formulate a plan for attacking and harassing.
After several scouts entered the county seat of Wujin, it was already evening, and unconsciously they came to a movie theater nearby, and several scouts who had not seen a movie for a long time moved to see the idea that it was not too late to go to see the movie and then reconnoiter, and they all felt feasible after seeing it with their eyes, so they bought tickets and entered the movie theater to watch the movie.
Along with the film screening, several scouts saw dozens of Japanese officers and men in the front row, watching the imperial victory with great interest. They quietly summed up, thinking that the attention of these Japanese troops was all concentrated in the movie, the scene was very dim, no one could see who, it was better to take this opportunity to kill a few more Japanese troops, or they could take the opportunity to run out after the chaos after the gunshots.
Several scouts immediately stood up, selected their respective targets and opened fire, and when the gunfire sounded, they fell into chaos, and several scouts captured a confused Japanese officer alive and ran all the way. The strange thing was that when they came out of the door of the movie theater, they were very confused to see that the Japanese army was just running after them all the way, but did not dare to shoot at them.
Qiu Xingxiang, who was in the camp, heard the gunshots coming from far and near, and immediately sent personnel to meet them, chased away the pursuing Japanese troops, and escorted the Japanese officer back to the regimental headquarters. After interrogation, Qiu Xingxiang learned that although this Japanese officer was only a lieutenant in rank, he had a great deal of success, he was a member of the Japanese Imperial Family, and to put it bluntly, he was a direct blood relative of Emperor Hirohito of Japan, the initiator of the war of aggression against China at that time.
Qiu Xingxiang was very happy to get such a big fish, but for the Japanese army, especially the Japanese army living in the Wujin area, and even the Wuxi and Nanjing areas, if they did not get this lieutenant back with all their tails and full beards, it meant that their death date was approaching or the day of being dismissed or demoted was not far away.
Officers and men rushing to the front line
Of course, the Japanese army also used various connections to bribe and negotiate with Qiu Xingxiang, but All of them were rejected by Qiu Xingxiang, and the Japanese army, which was deeply desperate, gathered tens of thousands of horses from two divisions and regiments, and under the cover of dozens of aircraft, launched a retaliatory sweep against Qiu Xingxiang's troops and other troops who insisted on resisting the war behind enemy lines.
At this time, the troops led by Qiu Xingxiang were stationed in their hometown of Liyang, and after learning the news that the Japanese army had come to sweep up, they quickly made pre-war deployments, and immediately rushed to Nandu according to Shangfeng's orders to attack the Japanese troops who had already occupied the Tianwang Temple.
Although it was pouring rain in the sky and it was nearly 70 miles from Nandu to Tianwang Temple, Qiu Xingxiang said in the pre-war mobilization that the weather was not good for our march. However, this weather will also make the Japanese army feel paralyzed the most, thinking that we, like them, will not fight in such a weather at all, we just want the Japanese army to see the chinese army's will to fight, that is, to take advantage of its lack of preparation to effectively attack the Japanese army.
The local people learned that Qiu Xingxiang led the troops to eliminate the Japanese army, and they all took the initiative to show them the way, so that they could rush there as soon as possible to eliminate the evil Japanese devils. Qiu Xingxiang was touched by the patriotic enthusiasm of his fathers and elders in his hometown, and he said to the villagers who came to see them off that he would rather die on the battlefield than be a slave to the country.
When the troops rushed to the Tianwang Temple after a rapid march, Qiu Xingxiang, like the officers and men, took up a large knife and charged into the battle with the Japanese army to the death, he was wounded in many places in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army in several positions, but he was still not afraid to charge forward, and fought hard with the spirit of seeing death as a homecoming. Led by Qiu Xingxiang, the officers and men exerted their fighting spirit and repeated bloody battles with the Japanese army, not only completely repelling the Japanese army's attack, but also taking advantage of the Japanese army's defeat and retreat, immediately organizing a counter-offensive to drive the Japanese army far out of the Tianwang Temple, smashing the arrogance of the Japanese army.
