Text Chapter 145 Fierce Battle with Tang Yuan (4)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The front line of Qunce Mountain was bustling with excitement.  In order to break through the opponent's blockade, Sawada Shigeru completed the encirclement as quickly as possible.  They used everything from airplanes and poison gas to mountain artillery of various calibers, not to mention the full cover of artillery shells, and almost exhausted all their strength. After two days of hard fighting, they finally arrived at the core fortification garrison area of ??Qunce Mountain Secret Warehouse that night.  , the Second Regiment and the First Regiment of the Third Regiment commanded by Yang Zhen have secretly retreated to his base camp, the outskirts of Jiamusi.

    In order to ensure the suddenness of the raid on Jiamusi, conceal his tactical intentions, and avoid the almost ubiquitous Japanese spies, Yang Zhen acted extremely cautiously.  His circuitous route did not choose the southern route. Instead, he chose to first go west from Qunce Mountain into the hinterland of Xiaoxinan Mountains, then suddenly turn east north of the Nada River, and then turn southeast after crossing the Hejia Railway on the Jiangjunshishan line.

    After crossing the uninhabited swamps and wilderness areas in the north of Jiamusi and Tangyuan, we accelerated our marching speed and headed straight towards Jiamusi at the speed of a rapid march.  At midnight on the second day after setting off from Qunce Mountain, Yang Zhen's troops arrived at the northern gateway of Jiamusi, at the mouth of the Lianjiang River.

    In order to maintain secrecy, not only all marches were conducted at night, but also all inhabited places were avoided as much as possible.  If you really can't avoid it, go around it at night.  At this time, the vast area in the north of Jiamusi, which is known as the Great Northern Wilderness to everyone in later generations, had not yet been developed.  Most of it is deserted swamps and wastelands.  The human population is far incomparable to that of later generations.  Except for a few villages, most of them are deserted.  Yang Zhen mainly chose these places to march, and he could avoid the omnipresent eyes of the Japanese army along the way.

    But along the way, what he didn¡¯t expect was that it wasn¡¯t people who caused him the most trouble, but the dogs that were commonly raised by people in the Northeast.  It's okay to march in mountainous areas. The people in the mountainous areas have long been relocated because of the Japanese's return to their villages and their households.  But in the plains, even if Yang Zhen was more careful, he couldn't completely avoid passing the village.

    Even if it is a night march, it is absolutely impossible for a large army of thousands of people, plus a large number of horses carrying baggage and heavy weapons, to make no movement at all.  Even if there is a certain distance, people may not be able to hear it, but dogs have sharp ears and eyesight.  As soon as there is any movement, he will do his duty and bark wildly.

    Although Yang Zhen liked dogs very much in later generations, he even took in a military dog ??from the Japanese garrison in Qunce Mountain.  But at this moment, Yang Zhen surprisingly hates these guys.  Listening to the barking of dogs from the distant village, Yang Zhen could only smile bitterly.  No wonder I heard some old Eighth Route Army soldiers say in later generations that when I was marching at night during guerrilla warfare, I was afraid of encountering a village that kept dogs.

    Fortunately, Tangyuan, one of the original main bases of the Third Route Army of the Anti-Japanese War, was a key area for the little devils to return to their villages and merge their households.  In the past, there were not many villages and towns scattered on the Sanjiang Plain, but they had already been gathered into several large group tribes by the little ghosts.

    Especially in plain areas close to shallow mountainous areas, the number of villages is very small.  It turns out that a large amount of cultivated land has been cultivated, but much of it is now deserted.  The more things that need to be avoided along the way are the so-called pioneering mission stations and the large and small coal mines scattered throughout the Heli area.

    After several battles on the front lines of Tianmiao Lingzi Mountain and Fasi River these days, almost all the Puppet Manchukuo military and police in the northern area of ????Tangyuan were deployed, and most of them never returned.  Before there was time to supplement the supplies, the small number of Puppet Manchukuo military police who stayed behind in the group tribe did not dare to come out to check even if they found any abnormalities.

    For these puppet Manchukuo military and police, it will be a matter of the future for the Japanese to find fault.  If you go out now and encounter those so-called red beards, you will be the unlucky one.  Not only did the puppet Manchukuo military and police dare not come out, but even the Japanese among the puppet Manchukuo military and police did not dare to come out.

    As reservists, they are different from those fanatical young soldiers. They all have families to support.  That fanaticism has long since disappeared.  They're not stupid, are they?  So although the dogs in the village brought some trouble to Yang Zhen's march, in short, it was not a big deal.

    Marching along the way, Yang Zhen did not ride the foreign horse Dong Ping gave him. The foreign horse was carrying a Type 92 heavy machine gun.  In order to ensure this raid on Jiamusi, Yang Zhen brought out almost all the pack horses from Qunce Mountain.

    In other words, if the battle situation does not change after five days, he will not be able to capture Jiamusi.  When Guo Bingxun retreated, he could only blow up all the remaining supplies. After all, there was no way for trucks to go on mountain roads.

    In fact, Yang Zhen¡¯s order to Guo Bingxun was that if the civil war situation did not change within five days and it was necessary to retreat, all materials that could not be carried should be blown up.  Anyway, most of the ammunition and supplies have been transported.  There aren't really many left.  Most of it was ammunition left behind for combat purposes.  Yang Zhen's meaning was very clear. Materials must not be allowed to hinder the movement of the troops.

    Relative to the final value of materialsUnable to retain it, whether Qunce Mountain can hold on for five days according to his own requirements, Yang Zhen is more worried about the enemy situation in Jiamusi.  After arriving at the front line of Lianjiangkou, Yang Zhen was not in a hurry to launch an attack.  At this time, it was the spring flood period of the Songhua River, and the amount of water in the river was extremely large.  Since the ferry cannot be solved in a short time, if we want to cross the river, we can only take down the Lianjiangkou Railway Bridge first.

    But the situation of the enemy troops at Lianjiangkou was still dark.  As the north gate of Jiamusi and the choke point on the Hejia Railway, the little devils would probably not set up a garrison here.  Although not too much, it is still a certain amount of trouble.  If he had launched an attack forcefully, he would have been able to capture Lianjiangkou with his superior firepower and military strength, but he had not hesitated to take a long detour before, and all his painstaking detours had been exposed.

    Looking at the Lianjiang estuary, which was completely dark under the night, with nothing actually visible, Yang Zhen put down the telescope in his hand, turned around and said to Liu Changshun and Dong Ping beside him: "Lianjiang estuary is the gateway to the north of Jiamusi, and its railway bridge  It is the place we must pass to cross the Songhua River. Unless we can get a large number of ferries now without alerting the Japanese and puppet troops."

    Yang Zhen raised his head and looked at Dong Ping and said: "You lead a team to personally check out the situation of the Japanese and puppet troops here. If not, grab a tongue. Try not to shoot. This place is across the river from Jiamusi, which is only more than thirty years away.  Kilometers. As soon as the gun went off, we went for tactical surprise."

    After hesitating for a while, Yang Zhen still said to Dong Ping: "After you lead the team down, find out clearly the deployment of the Japanese and puppet troops at Lianjiangkou. If there are not many people, just solve it directly. However, you have to remember to move quickly.  Soldiers are very quick. We did everything else and left two people alive."

    After listening to Yang Zhen's order, Dong Ping took a look at the sky and did not dare to delay at all. He turned around and led his reconnaissance company under the cover of night, and headed straight for the sleeping Lianjiang mouth.  Looking at his back, Yang Zhen was not worried at all about whether he could complete the task.  Although there are still some shortcomings in the training of the reconnaissance battalion, it has taken initial shape.

    Although it cannot be compared with the special forces of later generations, it should be said that it is still qualified as a tactical scout.  If there are not many enemies to defend, it is relatively easy to complete such a task.  Judging from the terrain of Lianjiang Estuary and the size of this market town, there should not be too many enemies defending here.

    Knowing the seriousness of the situation, it was already midnight. If all the troops could not cross the river before dawn, Dong Ping, who had been exposed by the detour carefully arranged by the commander, had no scruples and acted very quickly.  In less than half an hour, a group of disheveled soldiers were escorted back. At first glance, they were driven back by the Puppet Manchukuo military police who had been lifted out of bed.

    Seeing Yang Zhen, Dong Ping quickly reported: "Commander, we have followed the order and successfully captured the Lianjiang Pass without firing a single shot. A total of 23 puppet Manchukuo policemen were killed and 45 were captured. Among them were policemen.  There was one branch director and twenty railway policemen. A batch of weapons and ammunition were seized, and there were no casualties among our troops."

    After listening to Dong Ping's report, Yang Zhen glanced at the tightly tied Puppet Manchukuo policemen behind him, who were trembling all over at this moment. If they were not tied to each other with ropes, they would have been piled on the ground, and frowned.  The leader said: "If it weren't for these prisoners, what I want is the enemy situation in the Jiamusi area."

    Hearing Yang Zhen¡¯s words, Dong Ping was slightly startled, and immediately realized where he had made a mistake.  Dong Ping, who realized that he had made a serious mistake, couldn't help but look at Yang Zhen with some embarrassment and said: "I'm afraid you are worried about it. After finishing the enemy defense, I hurried back. I haven't had time to ask for a confession. I will go to the interrogation right away."

    Seeing Dong Ping react, Yang Zhen could only shake his head and smile bitterly: "Go and bring the sub-director over, and I will interrogate the others personally. For the other people, arrange your manpower and seize the time to interrogate them. I want to interrogate them in the shortest possible time.  , know what I want.¡±

    After that, he turned to Liu Changshun and said: "You immediately command the troops to station at Lianjiangkou and give me firm control of the railway bridge. Let the engineers plant explosives on the bridge, but don't blow it up before receiving the order."  Bridge, don't block passing vehicles for the time being. In addition, control all the railway employees and don't let any of them escape. Remember, what I want is all railway employees. In addition, tell the troops to take cover."

    After Liu Changshun led the troops to leave, Yang Zhen ordered Dong Ping to bring over the police chief who was almost not scared.  For Yang Zhen, the reason he wants to interrogate him personally is not because he doesn't trust Dong Ping.  Yang Zhen still believed in the abilities of his most proud disciple.  Although there was a small mistake just now, it is still a flaw.

    But for Yang Zhen, who was eager to learn first-hand information about the enemy situation in Jiamusi, he had to understand some things personally and make a judgment in the shortest possible time.  Because whether we can capture Jiamusi this time is related to whether we can smoothly mobilize the Japanese troops in the mountains and create the best situation to break the encirclement and suppression.

    ? ?Although the police chief is a complete weakling, his reaction is definitely not slow.  When he was brought up, he saw that although he was wearing the same military uniform as the others, he was only wearing a pistol. There were several guards with speedometers standing behind him. He immediately realized that the young man in front of him was a bit scary.  The person in question is probably the leader of this elusive bandit armed force.

    ¡°After all, this guy has also been in the old Northeast Army for many years. Although his bones are a little soft, his eyes are very poisonous.  Although the man in front of him is a bit too young, but just looking at the guns equipped by the guards behind him are all German-made speed machines, and the magazine bags on his chest are also bulging, which is definitely different from the lack of ammunition in other anti-alliance forces.  Judging from the situation, you know that the young official in front of you is definitely not young.  Judging from this posture, according to the organization of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, he should be a division commander, right?

    ?????????? But are these guys the Anti-League?  The Anti-League itself has had a lot of dealings with it, and has been a prisoner of the Anti-League itself.  Although there are no lives in the hands of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, they have always been in peace, but they have only been educated many times.  But they were all dressed in a mess, the most they were anti-Japanese soldiers wearing Japanese military uniforms. When did they get such a military uniform?  Their badges actually say "Resistance Alliance", but what do the messy Chinese characters on their armbands mean?

    However, although he did not know whether these people were members of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, after this guy guessed that Yang Zhen was the leader of these people and knew that his hope of survival rested on this young bandit leader, he did not hesitate and immediately knelt down.  Instead, he kowtowed desperately and said: "Sir, spare your life. When I become a traitor, I am just forced to make a living. I have never done anything to harm the Anti-Japanese Alliance. I am in my eighties."  I have an old mother to take care of, and I have several children who are waiting to be fed. I beg you, sir, to spare my life."

    This guy is also a bit of a loser.  I originally wanted to take advantage of the Japanese deputy director's return to Jiamusi to visit relatives and come out to have some fun.  Unexpectedly, as soon as he came out of the kiln, he would be spotted by Dong Ping who had entered the town.  There was no other way. In the dark town except for the station, he was the one holding a flashlight that was the brightest.  In addition to the Puppet Manchukuo police uniform he was wearing, who else would be the first to arrest him?

    It¡¯s just that this guy is really soft as hell.  The triangular bayonet of Dong Ping's soldiers that Yang Zhen specially asked the arsenal to make for him had just touched his lower back when the guy started to say something.  The situation of the Puppet Manchukuo military and police garrison in the entire Lianjiangkou was clearly explained.

    However, it was precisely because he explained so readily that it actually made Dong Ping wonder if this guy was thinking of some conspiracy or looking for time to delay himself?  Dong Ping was not polite and took him directly to the fake police station.  Dong Ping's meaning is very clear. If you lie, the first person the other party will shoot and kill will be you.

    However, the surprise attack on the Puppet Manchukuo Police Station and the Railway Police Guard Team was successfully completed, which proved that this guy was not lying.  But the killing methods used by Dong Ping's men when they attacked the road protection police team scared this guy.  Quietly and with only a few weird-looking bayonets, he eliminated most of the road guard police squadron. Is this still done by humans?  .

    It¡¯s not surprising that this guy who was afraid that Yang Zhen would do the same thing to him saw Yang Zhen in such a posture.  But his appearance put a smile on Yang Zhen's face, which had been tense since the roundabout battle.

    Hearing what this guy said, Yang Zhen smiled and shook his head.  This guy said these words so smoothly, I'm afraid he has said them many times.  Although this guy looks a little softer, Yang Zhen can also tell from his words that this guy is probably very smooth.

    For this kind of guy, I definitely have to be both soft and hard.  Otherwise, if you can't get a true confession, don't let him fool you.  Thinking of this, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "You get up first. You don't have to be afraid. As long as you answer my questions truthfully, I won't kill you."

    Yang Zhen's promise not to kill him made the guy slightly relieved, and he nodded hurriedly: "Sir, if you want to ask me anything, I will definitely tell you everything. If there are any half-truths, you can do whatever you want.  "

    Regarding this guy's promise, Yang Zhen just smiled slightly, gestured to Xiao Huzi behind him to untie the rope on his body, and said: "You'd better remember what you said. If you and your subordinates confess later,  Sorry, don't say we are merciless. Tell me, how many Japanese and puppet troops are there in Jiamusi City now? What is their strength and what is their equipment like?"

    Hearing Yang Zhen's question, this guy was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized his intention. He smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, you don't want to fight Jiamusi, do you? Are you too bold? Imperial Army, oh, no  The Fourth Division of the Little Japanese is currently engaged in a campaign in the northwest of Tangyuan County, less than a hundred miles away from Jiamusi. Commander Zhang's two mixed brigades from the Seventh Military District are also there. When a shot was fired in Jiamusi, they started talkingI can come back in time.  "

    "Even if you have a thousand men, it's not enough to put a gap in their teeth. Sir, I advise you that if you really want to relieve the friendly forces in the mountains, you might as well go north to attack Heli. There are coal mines there, and the coal there is  I heard that it is all low-sulfur coal and that it is the best industrial coal."

    "The coal produced there is all shipped to Japan. It is said to be used for coking and steel-making. The little devil values ??that place more than his life. There is also Luobei in the north, where there are gold mines. Every year  It produces hundreds of thousands of taels of gold. If you don't go to these two geomantic treasures, why would you think of going to Jiamusi? This is an important land and water transportation route. It's very convenient for them to reinforce us."

    Based on this guy¡¯s observation and analysis, Yang Zhen couldn¡¯t help but have some different views on this puppet Manchukuo policeman.  Although this guy looks a bit rough, he is still somewhat capable.  You can guess what you mean just from one of your own questions. Not many staff members trained by your teaching team have this vision.

    Although he was surprised in his heart that this little policeman had such vision, Yang Zhen did not show it on his face. He just said lightly: "Whatever I ask you, just say what you say. Don't talk so much nonsense."

    Seeing the cold look on Yang Zhen's face, this guy immediately realized that he was talking too much and said quickly: "Sir, there are not many Japanese troops in Jiamusi now, there is only one infantry brigade. I heard that this brigade was killed by you during the Dunhua campaign.  He was left behind after being crippled and not replenished."

    "In addition to this infantry brigade, there are only some baggage troops and artillery left. Oh, there seems to be a cavalry squadron. Are they the military police? As for how many there are, I don't know. But it shouldn't be too many.  Because the garrison of a small team originally stationed at Lianjiangkou has been transferred, I don¡¯t think there will be many left in Jiamusi.¡±

    "As for the Manchukuo Army, all the Manchukuo Army has been transferred, and now only a few policemen are left. I heard that you killed Lieutenant General Sasaki Yuichi in the previous stage, and the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Xinjing was very angry. The head of the Kwantung Army  A death order was issued, and the commander of the Fourth Division, Lieutenant General Zetian Shigeru, must wipe out you in the shortest possible time. So the Fourth Division stationed in Jiamusi drove into the mountains. Even the 11th Division who had just been transferred  Some of the division¡¯s troops have also been transferred.¡±

    Yang Zhen frowned at this guy's answer.  Originally, Yang Zhen interrogated him personally because he wanted to know the approximate strength of the Japanese army in Jiamusi, but he did not want to know too much detail.  After all, he is just a small police sub-director whose real power is in the hands of a Japanese deputy. How much can he know?

    Furthermore, in terms of administrative structure, Lianjiangkou was transferred to Heli County, which was newly established this year, and is no longer directly under the jurisdiction of Jiamusi.  Yang Zhen was thankful that this guy knew something about the Puppet Manchukuo military and police garrison in Jiamusi.  But I didn't expect that this guy knew most of the approximate number of Japanese troops.  This is really a bit abnormal.

    The little devil has always distrusted the so-called Manchus. Even if he revealed some deployment conditions, he would never tell the police chief of a suburban town so clearly.  Therefore, Yang Zhen only believed three points of this guy's confession.
