    "Commander, in this battle we defeated a Japanese brigade and a section of the puppet Manchukuo army that cooperated with it. We killed a total of 318 Japanese soldiers and 130 puppet Manchu soldiers. We captured 16 Japanese soldiers, including  There were eight wounded. In addition to the Japanese troops, we also captured more than 400 puppet Manchu troops."

    "A total of 560 Type 38 rifles and 120 Liao Type 13 rifles were seized. More than 60 pistols of various types were seized. Because the Japanese light and heavy machine guns became the main targets of our army's artillery fire, the number seized was not  Not a lot. Only six light machine guns and one heavy machine gun were seized. Sixteen grenade tubes and one hundred and thirty rounds of grenades. Since the Japanese army did not resist for a long time, the total number of various ammunition seized was relatively large, nearly two dozen.  One hundred thousand rounds. More than two thousand grenades."

    "In addition, two units each of Fifteen Watts Radio and Five Watts Radio were seized. Six telephones and one telephone line. As well as one piece of grain and one piece of clothing. Moreover, among the grains seized, rice, white flour and other fine grains accounted for the vast majority.  "

    "In this battle, our army consumed a total of more than 140 mortar shells and more than 50 75mm mountain artillery shells. In this battle, we almost used up all the mortar shells we carried when we set off, but the mortar shells themselves were insufficient.  Mountain artillery shells have also been consumed by nearly 70%. If we do not find ways to replenish them, our army will lose its main artillery firepower."

    "The remaining ammunition for various rifle machine guns consumes about 60,000 rounds, of which the Type 92 heavy machine gun with a caliber of 77 mainly consumes a relatively large amount of ammunition. In addition, the grenades consume a relatively large amount, and they destroyed the ammunition we carried before departure.  Half the amount.¡±

    "A total of fifty-six of our troops were killed and more than eighty were slightly injured. The reason why there were no serious casualties was because the weather was too cold for the seriously wounded. Even if we rescued them in time, they all died within a short period of time. In addition, in addition to fighting  In addition to injuries, about 60 people in the latent troops also suffered various kinds of frostbite. But none of them were serious, and most of the frostbite occurred on the hands and feet."

    The results of the battle were tallied quickly. It didn¡¯t take long for a detailed battle report to be delivered to Guo Bingxun.  Looking at the statistics of enemy and enemy casualties and the list of seized items, Guo Bingxun almost couldn't believe his eyes.  However, after hesitating for a moment, Guo Bingxun read out the battle report truthfully.

    After listening, Guo Bingxun read the battle report. The commander-in-chief, Li Yanping and others looked at me and I looked at you, almost unable to believe that this was true.  Not to mention capturing so many Japanese prisoners at once, even seizing so much ammunition at once was extremely rare in the Anti-Japanese War.

    In everyone¡¯s mind, the Japanese army is similar to most other Eastern armies.  In addition to being more ferocious, his determination to fight to the death is second to none.  Most of the time, even if the last person is beaten, very few will surrender.

    It has been several years since the September 18th Incident. The entire Northeast Anti-Alliance Third Route Army, even when it was at its peak, could probably count the number of Japanese prisoners it captured with one slap.  Thinking about it, sixteen people were captured in this battle, which can almost be described as groundbreaking.

    And that¡¯s not the only thing that surprised a few people.  Just received a report from Li Mingrui, who was blocking the Japanese troops on the South Road from approaching here and harassing the Japanese troops on the West Road.  After learning that the Japanese troops on the Southeast Road were under attack, the Japanese troops on the other two routes, instead of conducting rescue operations as per their usual practice, quickly retreated.  In particular, the Japanese troops on the southern route, which had the smallest number of troops, retreated instead of advancing. They even retreated rapidly to the west, trying to get closer to the Japanese troops on the west route.

    The Japanese troops on the South Road ran away like this, forcing Yang Zhen to attack the Japanese troops on the Southeast Road, which had the strongest strength, first. If the battle went well, his plan to turn to the South Road and eat up the Japanese troops on the South Road was completely in vain.

    Regarding Guo Bingxun's concern that excessive consumption of various artillery shells would cause a decline in subsequent combat effectiveness, Yang Zhen looked at the time on his watch, pointed to the place where gunshots were heard in the distance to the south, and smiled: "It doesn't matter, there are still Japanese soldiers on this road.  There is a mortar squadron behind. I have asked Dong Ping and others to greet them. Judging from the time of their departure, they should have succeeded by this time. If their progress goes smoothly, all the artillery shells we have consumed should be  Make up.¡±

    "You will send a company over there to respond in a moment. Didn't we capture several horse-drawn sledges in this battle? Take them all with you. There are only a few of them in this ice and snow. If they capture too many, it will be very difficult to carry them.  "

    Having said this, Yang Zhen turned to Li Yanping and said: "Political Commissar, after we withdraw to the temporary resting place, you must organize political workers to strengthen education for the soldiers. This battle was fought too easily. It is not that our overall strength exceeds the Japanese army.  But we encountered the special case of the Fourth Division. I am worried that it may affect the troops' impression of the Japanese army."

    "In this battle, if we had not achieved the suddenness of firepower and the suddenness of the battle, we would have used all the artillery fire in a concentrated manner, first inflicting heavy damage on the enemy, and then taking the lead in defeating the puppet Manchukuo army. Just relying on our cooperation with the Japanese army  Real strength comparison, in this battle, we can fight to a draw with this Japanese army.?Consider us lucky.  "

    "You saw just now that the Japanese's reaction speed under the sudden attack of our artillery fire was far beyond ours. After only a brief panic, they quickly stabilized the situation. The basic individual combat qualities they displayed were  Our army is incomparable. Whether it is tactics or counterattack speed, they far surpass us."

    "Except for the total number of troops, we had almost every advantage in this battle. We fired almost all the artillery shells we carried, but we still suffered over a hundred casualties, almost one-tenth of the troops participating in the battle. So this  Although we have achieved great results in the war, we have nothing to be proud of."

    "Most of the old cadres in our army have fought bloody battles with the Japanese regular field divisions in the pass. Let them talk about their combat experience against the Japanese regular divisions. A reminder to the new soldiers, we must not arouse their anger.  Arrogance. Make sure they understand that this is a special case." |

    "We were lucky this time. We encountered soft dough. We won't be so lucky next time. This kind of Japanese army is definitely a special case among special cases. We commanders must have a clear mind about the Japanese combat effectiveness.  understanding.¡±

    "Don't let the outcome of a battle affect your judgment. Even if it affects the morale of the troops, you must say something clearly in advance. Especially for cadres at all levels, you must keep a clear head. A proud soldier must  The reason for defeat must be made clearly. We do not have the strength, let alone the capital and pride. Therefore, we must make it clear, even if it affects the morale of the troops."

    Regarding Yang Zhen's words, Li Yanping nodded sympathetically and said: "I understand your concerns. To be honest, I have been fighting guerrillas in the Northeast for so many years, and I have encountered many Japanese and puppet troops, but like this  This is the first time I¡¯ve seen Japanese troops.¡±

    "Although this kind of troops may not exist in the Japanese army, they are definitely a minority among the minority. Most of the Japanese troops have extremely tough fighting styles. Although we are not afraid, we cannot treat this accidental phenomenon as a routine. So you ask the troops to be alert.  I very much agree with the idea of ??being arrogant and guarding against impetuosity. As for the impact on morale, it is not necessarily true. After all, most of our backbone have fought bloody battles with the Japanese army and have some understanding of the real combat power of the Japanese army."

    "The veterans in the army are not very worried. Most of them have fought bloody battles with the Japanese on different battlefields for many years, and they still have a certain understanding of the Japanese army. What is worrying is that it is the new recruits. Especially those who are participating in the war for the first time.  If the new recruits treat the Japanese army as soft persimmons, it will be the greatest harm."

    Having said this, Li Yanping pointed to the Japanese and puppet prisoners of war who were squatting on the ground like piles of freshly baked cornbread and said: "Commander, what should we do with these Japanese and puppet prisoners of war? Especially these puppet Manchukuo prisoners of war."  There are too many military prisoners of war. Should we follow the practice of the Anti-Japanese Alliance and release them all after interrogation, or should we take them first?"

    Yang Zhen was somewhat hesitant about the disposal of these prisoners of war.  It was okay to say that the Japanese prisoners of war were small in number, so they could just be taken away.  But these hundreds of puppet Manchu prisoners of war were a bit difficult for him to handle.  They were all released, and Yang Zhen was somewhat unwilling to do so.  But taking it with you is an unstable factor.  Although they are puppet soldiers, they are regular soldiers who have received military training.

    After pondering for a while, Yang Zhen said to Li Yanping: "I regard these prisoners of war as ordinary soldiers. After strict review, I will try to recruit some of them to join our army. Most of these people have received relatively complete military training. If they can win  To a certain extent, it will still be helpful to us.¡±

    "Those who really don't want to stay will be given ten yuan counterfeit coins as travel expenses, and all will be released on the spot. However, for those who are unwilling to stay, we must do a good job in publicity and tell them that we will go south to the Mengjiang area in the near future.  Join the First Army and ask them not to return in that direction. This is not the treatment we will receive when we meet again. But we must strictly screen those who remain, and do not let Japanese and puppet spies sneak into our army."

    "In addition, after interrogating officers at all levels and squad leaders, all officers above the company level will be executed, leaving no one behind. These people are a scourge if they stay. They might pull the troops back again. Let them go, and those who are determined to surrender to the enemy.  Traitors cannot serve as a deterrent. After defeating the war, they still get promoted and make a fortune when they return, and they harm the country and the people together with the devils. How can it be such a good thing? Since they are dedicated to working for the devils, they must bear the consequences."

    "I think today's decision on how to deal with these Puppet Manchukuo prisoners of war can become a routine in the future. For Puppet Manchukuo army company or above officers captured in battle, Puppet Manchukuo police deputy director, local Puppet Manchukuo county government section chief or above  , and after rigorous interrogation, he was shot on the spot.¡±

    "As for those ordinary Puppet Manchukuo military and police officers who, although not high enough, are highly indignant and determined to serve as lackeys for the Japanese, as long as there are three or more whistleblowers, regardless of whether they are soldiers or civilians, they willThis is also included, and once captured, they will be executed on the spot.  By the way, for the puppet Manchukuo military police, this standard must be lowered.  If you are at the level of squad leader, follow this example.  As for spies, they will be suppressed regardless of their level.  "

    "If we encounter a large market town, we will execute them in public. I will take the heads of these people to let the traitors at all levels in Manchukuo know what the price of betrayal is. Take their blood to atone for the crimes they have committed. Especially those who  Once captured, members of any task force who are rebels from the Anti-Japanese Alliance can be shot on the spot without any interrogation."

    Regarding Yang Zhen's decision, Li Yanping hesitated: "Isn't this too involved? I have no objection to the handling of those puppet Manchukuo military police, spies and traitors. Because these people are basically hardcore traitors."

    "But as for the Puppet Manchukuo military and police personnel, many of them have no independent opinions. They even follow their superiors to surrender to the enemy for the purpose of making ends meet. Such a large-scale killing is very detrimental to our efforts to win over them.  . It also affects you. After all, we are a team of the Communist Party, and the party¡¯s policies must still be implemented.¡±

    "What's too big? The Japanese army dared to occupy the entire Northeast with just one division. Of course there were other reasons for this. But without these traitors to lead the way, and even a large number of troops surrendered to the enemy without firing a shot, the Japanese army would  How can you be so capable?"

    "Among the puppet Manchukuo military and police, it is true that many grassroots officers and soldiers passively surrendered to the enemy, but over the years, how many of our anti-Japanese soldiers have died in the hands of these confused people who did not know what their country was? Let's not talk about anything else.  "In the past, the Japanese's Eastern Dao Crusade, which specifically targeted the First Army, was carried out independently by the Puppet Manchukuo military police, except for a few Japanese military supervising troops."

    "How can these people be company commanders, battalion commanders, or police chiefs? Aren't their hands stained with the blood of our anti-Japanese warriors? Their official positions were not exchanged for the lives of my anti-Japanese soldiers. Devils  Not in the habit of feeding waste.¡±

    "I don't care who holds the real power. I only know that their official positions were obtained from the devils with the blood and heads of their compatriots. Blood debts must be repaid with blood after all. I don't have such a broad mind when I complain about virtue.  .¡±

    Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at Li Yanping, who was silent after listening to his words, and said in a somewhat slow tone: "Political Commissar, what we do is to separate the ordinary Puppet Manchukuo military police and those whose hands are stained with our blood.  Senior puppet military and political personnel can distinguish themselves, and they can also effectively use the heads of these traitors to intimidate those who are dedicated to working for the Japanese army."

    "I'm not someone who wants to kill extravagantly, but if we don't do this, we won't be able to fundamentally deter those puppet Manchukuo military and political personnel. If we catch and release, if we catch and release, we will only make these people become old fritters. Failed in the battle  If you are captured, you only need to cry bitterly and you will be released. What should you do after you go back? Isn¡¯t this battle in vain? "

    "It's like a person who made a mistake. When he was caught, he only got scolded twice. He didn't even hit his hand. How could he deter them? The Japanese army has limited troops. The main opponents we faced for a lot of time were these puppet Manchurians.  Military and political personnel.¡±

    "Many of these people are local snakes and are familiar with geography and people's customs. Without them, many of the devils will be blind and deaf. Killing them means that the devils' eyes and ears will be destroyed. But for us, many of them will be blind and deaf.  At that time, they posed a much greater threat to us than the Japanese army. If we do not severely deter them, our situation will only become more difficult."

    "I don't want to go on a killing spree, but I have to let those people understand that if they make a mistake, they will eventually be punished. You can escape for a while, but you can't escape for a lifetime. Don't think that with our leniency policy, you can do whatever you want. It's necessary.  We were also tough on our tactics. We did not say anything lenient towards traitors. For such people, we would kill them with just one word."

    After hesitating for a long time, Li Yanping finally nodded to Yang Zhen's idea and expressed his acquiescence.

    However, after a moment of silence, Li Yanping shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Many of these people had torn off their military rank marks before being captured. We need to find a good way to distinguish them."

    "According to your idea, many people are worthy of being shot. If we don't find a way, many traitors who have committed such heinous crimes that the people will not be outraged if they are not killed will slip away from under our noses."

    "These grassroots commanders of the Puppet Manchukuo military police are not as easy to identify as the senior Puppet officials. Moreover, they who directly control the troops have considerable deterrence among their subordinates. As long as they are among the prisoners, many people will not dare to  Open your mouth. We don't know them."

    In response to Li Yanping's shake of the head, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "This is easy to handle. Think about it, what is the greatest magic weapon of our party? It is mass work. The eyes of the masses are snowYes, as long as we fully mobilize those prisoners of the puppet Manchukuo army to report, I think many things will not be difficult to handle.  "

    "In this way, we will start a complaint campaign. Let these puppet Manchukuo prisoners report their superiors. I don't believe that these puppet Manchukuo soldiers have not been whipped by their superiors? Have not been slapped by the Japanese advisers? I can't listen.  It is said that in the puppet Manchu army, you must learn Japanese. Political Commissar, don¡¯t forget that Guo Dachun.¡±

    Hearing Yang Zhen's method, Li Yanping said with a bit of laughter: "You, I think you are not only asking for their superiors, but also cutting off the way back for these ordinary military police. You know, they betrayed  If you kill your own commander, neither the kid nor their commander will be able to spare them once they return. If they want to avoid being held accountable, they can only join our army. You can kill two birds with one stone."

    Regarding Li Yanping¡¯s accusation, Yang Zhen shook his head and said nothing.  There was neither denial nor admission.  He just showed a tacit smile and said: "Political Commissar, I gave you this idea, but you have to do the work of the commander-in-chief."

    Hearing Yang Zhen's words, Li Yanping pointed at Yang Zhen and said with a wry smile: "I said you wouldn't give me advice so readily. You even tricked me, and you really did a good job for me.  The commander-in-chief has a strong party spirit and is so easy to persuade. You."
