Determined to fight to the death, he once called Lu: "If you die in battle, you will still live without fighting, even though you are born and die. "Japan's fifth division was forced to give up the frontal siege and turn to the 59th army. The two sides launched hand-to-hand combat, and the 59 th Army and the Japanese army fought several rounds and times. By the end of the 16 war, the theater thought that the 59 th Army suffered heavy casualties and suggested retreating. But Zhang Zizhong insisted on playing for another day and night. He said: "Our army suffered heavy casualties, and so did the enemy. Both the enemy and ourselves are struggling, and the victory of the war depends on who can hold out until the last five minutes. Since you have fought the enemy, you must fight with spirit and flesh and blood, and you will never stop until you defeat the enemy!

" That night 10, 59 army marched back to Linyi. The officers and men of the whole army fought bloody battles and vowed to hold their positions to the death. Give "Tiejun" great harm. On the 29th, China reinforcements arrived in Linyi successively from the 20th Army Cavalry Corps and the 333rd Brigade of the 57th Army. 30, Zhang Zizhong ordered a counterattack, the Japanese can't resist. Kiyojiro, head of Sakaguchi, dropped his coat and crutches and ran for his life. The second battle of Linyi ended successfully. On March 30, the Military Command of the Military Commission called Li Zongren and pointed out: "Zhang Jun insisted on the war of resistance and killed many enemies. I hope to send a letter of comfort." Two bloody battles, 59th Army suffered heavy casualties, only the company commander suffered casualties 120. The elite 5th Division of the Japanese invaders, known as the "Iron Army", was defeated twice. The Fifth Division of the Japanese Army launched the Linyi Operation on March 3, but it still failed to cross the line by the end of the month, which really embarrassed the Japanese "Iron Army". Masahiro Banhara couldn't sleep well, became angry from embarrassment and tried to commit suicide.
Li Zongren pointed out: "The biggest gain is to completely smash the plan of the two divisions of Banheng and Muscular Valley to meet in Taierzhuang. When Taierzhuang caused a bloody battle, the opportunity of deep muscle valley made me panic. " The two battles in Linyi, where more than 5,000 people were wiped out, are an integral part of Taierzhuang, and Linyi is another main battlefield for Taierzhuang's independence. The significance of Linyi goes far beyond the scope of prologue and peripheral war. Zhang Zizhong was promoted to be the head of the 27th Army Corps and the commander of the 59th Army because of the victory of Linyi Campaign. 1938 10, Zhang Zizhong was promoted to commander-in-chief of the 33rd Army. Later, he was the commander-in-chief of the right wing corps in the fifth theater.
From June 1938+065438+ 10 to early April 1939, in just four months, Zhang Zizhong's command post department carried out four small and medium-sized battles in northern Hubei, killing more than 4,000 people. Among them, the battle of Jingshan in February was particularly outstanding. Chiang Kai-shek made a special phone call to Zhang Zizhong and said, "Your department was strong in the Anti-Japanese War. It defeated the fierce front many times, stabilized the front and made great contributions. The special reward is20,000 yuan for temporary supplements such as comforting dead and wounded officers and soldiers. " Lin Sen, Chairman of the National Government, issued an order to award Zhang Zizhong Baoding Medal. 1On May 2nd, 939, the National Government issued an order conferring the rank of General Zhang Zizhong.
1939 in may, Okamura Ningji, the leader of the Japanese army, mobilized four divisions and two brigades of tanks, artillery, engineers and other special forces to invade Suixian and Zaoyang areas in northern Hubei. Zhang Zizhong ordered the frontal troops to defend their positions, and at the same time rushed to send two divisions to detour to the enemy rear, flanking the Japanese army on both sides. He also personally led the ninth division of cavalry and the pistol battalion of the headquarters to cross the Xianghe River to attack the enemy, intercepted the main force of the enemy, defeated the Japanese army in Tianjiaji, and shattered the attempt of the Japanese army to surround the 33 rd Army. Then around the fifth war zone, the corps counterattacked all fronts and recovered Zaoyang and Tongbai in one fell swoop. History is called "Hubei North Street". In 65438+February of the same year, the Japanese army concentrated a large number of troops to attack the position of the 33rd Army132nd Division stationed in Changshoudian area. The two sides fought fiercely for 7 days and nights, and the position of 132 division was repeatedly broken. Zhang Zizhong decided to use Indiana Jones to attack the enemy's nerve center and defeat the enemy. He transferred the 359th regiment of 132 division to another 1 battalion, so as to sneak attack the Japanese general headquarters in Zhongxiang county at night. Before he left, he encouraged the soldiers to say: "The state raises soldiers just to fight, and there will be casualties in fighting. People always die. Live 20 years more, live 20 years less, and it will soon pass. But death is heavier than Mount Tai and lighter than a feather. It is heavier to die for the country and the people than Mount Tai, otherwise it will be as light as a feather. " With Zhang Zizhong's encouragement, the assault troops attacked 30 Li that night and won the Japanese General Command in one fell swoop. The Japanese army attacking the front line was very shocked and panicked when they heard the news that the nest was terminated. Zhang Zizhong commanded the troops to fight back violently, and the Japanese army retreated 60 miles, winning a great victory. In the Battle of Jujube, China's army wiped out more than 65,438+10,000 people. Among them, Zhang Zizhong Right-wing Corps wiped out more than 4,500 enemy troops and seized 74 military horses and a large number of military supplies. This battle is known as "Great Victory in Eastern Hunan".
Zhang Zizhong began to be respected by the Japanese army, and was nicknamed "Modern Guan Gong" and "Living Guan Gong" by them. China people also call him "the living Guan Gong". A poem entitled "Ode to Zhang Zizhong" wrote: "The army has long been a model and vowed to fight against Japanese slaves. In the middle of the night, he sent troops to kill thieves, and the knife flashed. "
Chiang Kai-shek called Zhang the "best army" and called his defense zone a "model battlefield". Chiang Kai-shek said: "The winter offensive is the most valuable in the eastern Hunan battlefield hosted by Zhang Zizhong, and it is actually a model of all battlefields."
1 940 on may1,15, the Japanese army launched a large-scale attack on the troops in the fifth theater on the east bank of Xianghe, and the battle of Zaoyi started. Zhang Zizhong ordered the troops on the east bank of Xianghe to meet them separately, and instructed the troops on the west bank to prepare for the attack. Zhang Zizhong personally wrote a letter to the heads of the divisions and regiments of the 59th Army: Look at the recent situation, the enemy may hit a snag again. As long as the enemy attacks, brother and brother will go to Hedong to sacrifice. The country has reached this point, and there is no other way but to die for it. I believe that as long as we make up our minds, our country, our 5,000-year-old nation, will never die at the hands of the slaves of Mishima. The determination to die for the country and the nation will never change! I want to encourage you with my brothers.
Before dawn on May 7th, Zhang Zizhong led the pistol battalion and the 74th Division to cross the mighty Xianghe River from the Yaowan Ferry in Yicheng and go to the battlefield in Hedong. This is Zhang Zizhong's fourth crossing after 1939 "April offensive", Zaozhuang campaign and winter offensive.
At dawn in June, 5438+05, Zhang Zizhong only led more than 2,000 people, stopped the Japanese army going south from Xiangyang along the Hanshui River and ran to Fangjiaji. In order to prevent the enemy from fleeing south, he ordered a fierce interception of the advancing enemy. Ten times as many as the Japanese who killed him one and a half times. The Japanese suffered heavy casualties. I don't understand why this China army can play so well. It mobilized more than 5,000 heavy troops to attack Fangjiaji from north to south in an attempt to destroy this enemy and never see it again.
