"Your Excellency, Commander, the flying team reported that their reconnaissance plane lost contact, and our Xinmin garrison witnessed one of my reconnaissance planes being blown up by the Chinese army. The Chinese army attacking Xinmin carried anti-aircraft weapons, which shows that they are not ordinary people. Troops!" Masaemon Sakamoto came well prepared and continued, "There are only a handful of Chinese troops with anti-aircraft weapons, and in most cases, the anti-aircraft troops are deployed permanently, but they did not do this. What does it mean?"
"Have you found the serial number of the China Army?"
"The New Civil Defense Force reported that they look very young, but they are definitely well-trained, and their fighting style is very fierce. They are not inferior to any army in the Japanese Empire. They should be the main force of the Chinese Army in the East Resistance!" Sakamoto Masato! Weimen said, "I checked, and apart from the 183rd Division stationed in Zhengjiatun and the 36th Division in Chifeng, the one closest to us is the 181st Division that moved to the Taonan area half a year ago!"
"The 181st Division, isn't that a unit adapted from the 1st Teaching Brigade, the most elite of the Chinese Army's Eastern Resistance, to raid Harbin?" Gao Linglong said in surprise.
"Yes, according to the information we have, the 181st Division is one of the two main forces in the East Resistance. The other unit is the 182nd Division of the 32nd Army stationed in Benxi. The 11th Division has suffered losses under its hands, and its combat effectiveness is obvious to all. !" Sakamoto Masaemon said.
"What do you mean, Mr. Sakamoto?"
"The strength of one brigade seems a little thin. I want to allocate another brigade to support the 39th Brigade in attacking from the Yingkou and Panshan lines to attack the China Army!" Sakamoto Masaemon said. "In addition, the Eighth Division stationed in Jinxi can be sent out part of the troops to attack Yixian, coordinate and contain the China Army, and regain control of the railway line!"
"Which troop does Sakamoto-kun plan to mobilize?" Karihistaka pondered for a moment and asked.
"Sakamoto has no power to deploy any troops. Everything is decided by the commander!" Masaemon Sakamoto said solemnly.
"It doesn't matter, tell me what you think. I just took office not long ago. I still don't know much about the situation in Manchuria!" Qi Linglong waved his hand.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Sakamoto feels that the current situation in Manchuria is like a person stepping on a tightrope. If he is not careful, he will fall into an abyss. The Kwantung Army seems to be a quite huge force, but it is so dispersed that even It is difficult to coordinate the command of various forces. This means that once the Chinese army makes a move, we are unable to quickly counterattack. It is not that our troops are not enough, but that our strategy is too radical!"
"Go on!"
"Sakamoto feels that in addition to repelling the provocation of the Chinese Army in the East, there is something more important. Manchukuo's tolerant policy towards Manchukuo. Manchukuo is now like a rebellious teenager whose parents are too strict. If so, he will definitely rebound, but if we give them a little more understanding, a little more space, and give him a relaxed environment to grow up. Then, as time goes by, he will understand his parents' painstaking efforts, and by then, Manchuria will be integrated into the empire. That¡¯s what happened!¡±
"Sakamoto-kun, your ideas are very insightful. I will consider them carefully!" Karishi Takashi nodded.
"Some of Sakamoto's shallow opinions made the Commander laugh!"
"Hey, I'm very inspired by what you said. The war situation is urgent right now. Let's put aside political matters for now. The China Army's resistance to the East is coming fiercely. If we don't handle it properly, the Kwantung Army's reputation will be discredited!" Qi Linglong said.
"Yes, the China Army must be repulsed, otherwise our interests in Manchuria will suffer huge losses!"
"Your Excellency, Commander"
"What's going on?" Karihishitaka was a little unhappy. He was talking to Sakamoto Masaemon and no one was allowed to interrupt him.
"The China Army's Eastern Anti-Japanese War issued a nationwide telegram early this morning. This is the entire content of the telegram!" the adjutant handed over a telegram.
"Baga, the evildoers of the China Army will file a complaint first"
"Commander, can you let me see it?" Masaemon Sakamoto took the message and took a look at it, and his expression changed drastically.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Tokyo has learned the entire contents of the message, and we are very passive now"
"Your Excellency, Commander, I think this matter must be a Chinese conspiracy, and we must not admit it!"
"The Chinese have seized witness and physical evidence, how can we refute it?"
"It has always been normal to spy on each other during military exercises. This is just a normal observation and test. Even if it goes too far, isn't it intentional provocation by the Chinese military to send exercise troops deep into our controlled areas?"
"The key is that our personnel are wearing the uniforms of the China Army!"
¡°What kind of evidence is this? Couldn¡¯t this beThe China Army forced our soldiers to wear them after the incident. Anyway, they are all their people on the left and right! "
"This is clearly the provocation by the China Army first, and we fought back later, but the evil people of the China Army sued us first!"
"Yes, let's refute it based on this argument and let the people understand the sinister intentions and despicableness of the China Army!" Qi Linglong instructed.
"Hai!"
At 1:37 pm on the 17th, news came that Xinmin City had been captured. At this point, the first phase of Lu Shan's "Rehabilitate Rehe" operational plan was completed.
When the Liaohe Railway Bridge was bombed, the Japanese reinforcements and the mixed 39th Brigade were forced to temporarily station in Xinglongdian on the east bank of the Liaohe River.
The Japanese army began to collect boats crossing the river and build pontoons.
Because Lin Xiaoguang had the foresight to ask Company Commander Sun to collect and transfer some ships along the east bank of the Liao River in advance, the Japanese army could only look for ships crossing the river farther away, which would lag behind in time!
In order to prevent the Japanese army from crossing the river in pieces, Lin Nan then sent out the cavalry battalion and reconnaissance company directly under the brigade headquarters, and also built defensive positions on the west bank of the Liao River to form a confrontation with the Japanese army on the east bank!
The two sides were separated by the Liao River and stopped in perfect agreement!
Xinmin City has been captured, and Hengshan Yong is no longer in a hurry to attack. He has to find out the opponent's situation and wait for the field artillery brigade to come up, especially the supply of ammunition and supplies. Facing the powerful Dongfang resistance, he must make adequate preparations. Only with preparation can the war begin!
The experience and lessons from the failure of Zhengjiatun taught him that there will be a considerable price to pay for contempt and underestimation of the China Army's Eastern Resistance!
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army gathered enough boats to cross the river and launched a tentative attack.
The Japanese army dispatched two squadrons of troops and launched a river-crossing operation about 300 meters from the front. Under the cover of artillery and aircraft, they fought towards the east resistance blocking position on the west bank!
The 181st Brigade, Regiment and Battalion of the 1st Brigade were responsible for the blocking mission. This was the main battalion of the original teaching brigade. It was the absolute main force in fighting Shancheng and Harbin. Seventy percent of the whole battalion were veterans with rich combat experience. It can be said that except for Wolf In addition to the teeth, under the battalion-level organization, the first battalion is the most powerful.
Of course, the equipment of this battalion is absolutely powerful. There is no artillery over 100 mm, but it is equipped with four 70 mm infantry cannons. Not to mention other mortars and grenades, the light and heavy machine guns combined There are sixty of them, and a small number of German-made submachine guns are also equipped. This firepower level is absolutely the best in the entire East Resistance.
This is the firepower equipment of a battalion, and a regiment is not so generous.
This is the treatment of the main force battalion, and a regiment and a battalion are not only the main force battalion, but also the main force reinforcement battalion.
With a full complement of 800 people, no regiment in China has so many people, and they are all veterans of many battles.
The combat effectiveness of this battalion can be imagined!
An exploratory attack by the little devil was just scratching an itch. Before the ship could even dock, more than one-third were killed or injured.
¡°Many of them fell into the Liao River and drowned. Poor little devils, they didn¡¯t even learn how to swim, so why did they swim armedly? Isn¡¯t that asking for death?
The gunpowder smoke dispersed slightly, and the originally green grassy banks of the Liaohe River turned into pits and pits, as if they had been gnawed by dogs.
??The farmland was riddled with holes, with bombed soil everywhere and burning corpses
"Hengshan-kun, your judgment is correct. Our opponent is indeed very unusual. I observed carefully just now. The combat quality and tactical coordination of their soldiers are not inferior to our army, and their weapons and equipment are not inferior to ours. This is A formidable opponent!" Tetsuzo Nakajima, captain of the 77th Regiment, said to Yudo Yokoyama.
"Our enemy is different from what we knew before. For such an enemy, we must re-understand and understand them, and find their weaknesses, so that we can defeat the enemy!" Yokoyama Isamu said with an indifferent expression.
"Yokoyama-kun, have you found their weakness?" Nakajima Tetsuzo asked.
"Where's Second Lieutenant Iwasaki, bring him to see me!" Isamu Yokoyama ordered.
"Hai!"
"Your Excellency, Iwasaki salutes you!"
"Second Lieutenant Iwasaki, tell me about your encounter with the top soldier of the China Army?" Yokoyama Isamu asked.
"They are well-equipped, very brave, and very skilled in using tactics. They look like professional soldiers at first glance!" Lieutenant Iwasaki lowered his head and said.
"Your injury?"
"Thank you for your concern, there is no problem!" Iwasaki said.
"If it's one-on-one, do you think who will lose and win between the Empire's warriors and them?" Isamu Yokoyama asked.
"this¡¡"
"It doesn't matter, just say it boldly. I want everyone here to understand again that our enemies are not as weak as we imagined. If we hold this understanding and attitude, then we will still be in the next battle. Failure, understand!" Yokoyama Isamu reminded many officers in the temporary headquarters sternly.
"Your Excellency, I think that if it's one-on-one, the outcome is evenly matched!" Lieutenant Iwasaki said.
"I heard it. Second Lieutenant Iwasaki fought against the China Army and was injured. You all know what Second Lieutenant Iwasaki is like, so I don't need to confirm what he said. You should also know it!" Yokoyama Yudao said.
"Your Excellency, the railway bridge was blown up by the Chinese army. We did not collect enough ferries, so what should we do next?" Captain Nagatani Junzo, the second squadron of the 28th Cavalry Regiment, stood up and asked.
¡°Continue to collect ferries from upstream and downstream. I must have enough ferries before dark!¡± Yokoyama Isamu ordered.
