Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Although the Japanese are overly ambitious, they have to admit that their precision and meticulous attitude in doing things still need to be learned by the Chinese people.  [.Com text] The weather forecast brought by Michio Yamaoka can be said to be quite accurate.

    On the third day after Sasaki issued the order, a blizzard-level snowfall accompanied by a sharp drop in temperature hit the Ning'an and Dunhua areas.  This blizzard not only delayed Sasaki's plan to adjust his deployment, but also forced Yang Zhen to terminate his training.

    There is no way to carry out shooting and actual combat training when the people on the other side cannot see clearly. That is not training, but because there are too many people in our troops.  Moreover, when the snow has reached waist deep and the speed of snow clearing cannot keep up with the speed of snowfall, no training can be carried out.

    When Yang Zhen, who was checking sentries at night, personally felt the severe cold of more than 40 degrees below zero, he realized that the winter where he was stationed in what is now southern Manchuria and the Liaoning area in later generations was generally as low as minus 20 degrees.  warmth.  Even the temperatures of more than 30 degrees below zero during winter field survival training in the Daxinganling area further north than here are already considered to be extremely cold winters, but they are far worse than they are now.  Only now does Yang Zhen know how happy people in future generations will be who live under greenhouse gases.

    Even though Yang Zhen is now wearing the extremely warm winter clothes specially developed by the Japanese army for the Kwantung Army, Yang Zhen still feels that he cannot withstand the cold outdoors.  Looking at the winter clothes on his body, Yang Zhen couldn't help but admire the little devil's meticulousness in doing things.

    "Compared with the PLA winter clothes decades later, this Japanese army's winter clothes are much bulkier due to the technology of the times, but the thermal insulation performance is not much different, and it is even better in terms of humaneness.  Only now did Yang Zhen know that in the last century, the PLA's old-fashioned winter clothes equipped by troops in cold areas were, to a certain extent, imitations of the Japanese Kwantung Army.

    The ear protection on the cotton hat can be removed to protect the face from frostbite. The two-fingered cotton gloves keep warm without affecting the use of weapons. The cuffs of the coat sleeves can be removed and used as knee pads when necessary.  Although the style is a bit ugly, the warmth retention properties are excellent.

    Not only is the coat designed extremely scientifically, but even the high-waisted big-toe shoes ensure that thick snow cannot penetrate into the shoe shell and prevent frostbite on the feet.  Although the size of winter clothing is generally a bit shorter for soldiers who enlisted in the Northeast, it is much better than nothing.

    Yang Zhen really couldn¡¯t imagine what would have happened to his thinly-clad troops in this mountainous area where dripping water turned into ice at minus 40 degrees Celsius if these winter clothes had not been seized in Weihe County.  A few days ago, it was more than 30 degrees below zero, and many old-timers from the south felt a little unbearable.  The current temperature is at least 40 degrees below zero. Without these winter clothes, I am afraid that this army will collapse from the cold, let alone training and combat.

    After checking the sentry, he returned to the war room and looked at Guo Bingxun, who was wearing a thick coat and a Japanese military blanket on his knees. He was sitting in front of the bonfire and didn't know what he was writing. Yang Zhen threw a few pieces into the bonfire.  After using a piece of wood to make the bonfire burn brighter, he smiled and said, "Why isn't it better?"

    After listening to Yang Zhen's words, Guo Bingxun put down the pen in his hand, smiled and said: "Thankfully, I have lived in the Northeast for such a long time. I didn't expect that it was only seven or eight years since I left the Northeast, and the climate in the Northeast is no longer suitable."

    "Maybe it was because I was too comfortable in France and the Sichuan Army in the early years, and I couldn't bear the hardship. As soon as the temperature dropped, I started to have a fever. Fortunately, I got better after taking medicine. Zhang Ting just came over to test me.  My body temperature has dropped. My illness has delayed a lot of things."

    Yang Zhen stretched out his hand in front of the bonfire to roast his almost frozen fingers and said, "Don't talk about you anymore, even I am a little uncomfortable. I went out to check the sentries. Isn't it freezing enough? It's not.  Wear gloves, but your hands will freeze in a short time. The freezing temperature is over 40 degrees below zero, and it¡¯s really freezing.¡±

    "The severe cold and hunger in Northern Manchuria often make it more difficult to deal with the enemy than the Japanese army. If we were not lucky enough to capture a large number of winter clothes and ammunition from the Japanese army's columns during the attack on Weihe County, as well as collect  There is a lot of food, let alone fighting, even cold and hunger will drag us down. "

    Having said this, Yang Zhen stood up and went out to look outside. It had been raining all day and night since the night before yesterday. Although the amount of snowfall has decreased, it has turned from blizzard to heavy snow, but there is no sign of it stopping.  Trending weather, he turned around and returned to Mulengzi and said: "If the snow keeps falling like this, the snow in the mountains will become thicker and thicker. Not to mention our training, even our operations will be stopped."

    Looking at Yang Zhen who was a little anxious, Guo Bingxun smiled and said: "Commander, don't worry too early. I asked Zhang Ting, this mountainous area in southern Ning'an is known as the Snow Town of Northeast China, with the highest amount of snowfall in the entire Northeast winter."??The largest area.  Although this snow is somewhat rare, it is not unusual here.  "

    "Although the heavy snow has restricted our movements, it has also caused a lot of inconvenience to the Japanese army. At least we are not the only ones who have difficulty moving in waist-deep snow. Even if the Japanese are carrying out raids in the mountains north of Dunhua  The network cleanup will probably be delayed for a lot of time because of the snowstorm. In any case, as long as the devils don't take action for a day, it can be regarded as buying us one more day."

    Having said that, Guo Bingxun looked at the strong bonfire in the brazier and said: "Rather than the weather, I am more worried about Li Mingrui and the others. The temperature has dropped so much all of a sudden. They are in the wild and they are marching all day.  , even building a wooden raft to keep out the cold is impossible. Their winter field training has not started yet. If they are a little negligent, they may suffer from large-scale frostbite. The radio signal has been unable to reach them in the past two days. I am very worried about them.  ¡±

    "No. There are also many Orion warriors among them who have lived in the mountains for many years, as well as Dong Ping, who has fought guerrillas in the mountains for many years. Mingrui is also very alert, so there should be no problems. Lao Guo,  You have to trust your old subordinates who have been with you for many years." Regarding Guo Bingxun's concerns, Yang Zhen showed high confidence in Li Mingrui.

    In response to Yang Zhen's consolation, Guo Bingxun shook his head with a wry smile: "Commander, this is not the Sichuan plain with a warm climate, but the mountainous area of ????North Manchuria, which is more than 40 degrees below zero. This is Mingrui's first time in the Northeast, and there is no protection against the cold.  Experience. If they join forces with Dali and Dong Ping, I wouldn¡¯t be worried if they have experienced Dong Ping. But it¡¯s not clear yet whether they will join with Dong Ping.¡±

    Knowing that Guo Bingxun was worried about his old subordinates, Yang Zhen couldn't say anything for a while.  Yang Zhen knew that Guo Bingxun and Li Mingrui had a deep relationship.  If it were in Sichuan, no matter how dangerous the situation was, Guo Bingxun would not worry about Li Mingrui, because he believed that with Li Mingrui's ability, there would never be any danger.

    ¡°But this is the Beiman Mountains where the temperature is more than 40 degrees below zero. For Li Mingrui, who has no experience in living in cold areas or even marching after snow, there are countless dangers hidden in the snow.

    "It's just that people have already set off, and now the radio station has been unable to contact them. No matter how worried they are, they can only wait patiently.  However, although the radio station has been unable to contact them, Yang Zhen still has confidence in Li Mingrui. He believes that Li Mingrui can definitely safely find Huang Dali and Dong Ping who are operating in Dunhua.  He still has great confidence in Li Mingrui.

    He glanced at Guo Bingxun, who was worried about Li Mingrui's safety, and thought about it for a moment, but Yang Zhen, who didn't know how to persuade him, changed the subject and said, "Lao Guo, do you think the Japanese army will be fooled?"

    "Yes. No matter whether the little devils believe the bait we spread or not, I think they will mobilize their troops to launch a clearing campaign in northern Dunhua. The reason is very simple. As long as they are sure that we are not hiding in the mountains in northern Dunhua, then they can  Target the Ning'an Mountains south of the Binsui Line, our only and last place to hide."

    "In this way, the scope of their search will be much smaller. Regardless of whether this piece of information is true or false, for the Japanese army, they have finally found traces of our army, right? With the general target, there is no need for the Japanese army to  A blind man searches for an elephant in these hundreds of miles of deep mountains and old forests.¡±

    "However, I estimate that based on the consistent style of the Japanese generals, when they conduct searches and suppressions in the mountainous areas north of Dunhua, they will also send small teams or aviation units to conduct reconnaissance in other places. No matter how concealed we are, in this snow  Subsequent activities in the mountains will eventually leave traces. Although the snow in the mountains restricts the movement of the Japanese army, it is also extremely easy to expose the whereabouts of our troops. Therefore, Commander, I suggest that we still be prepared for battle. "

    "At the same time, after Li Mingrui and the others come back, I suggest they be released immediately, and we should seize the time to find out where the Japanese blockade is weak, and find the weak spots in the Japanese blockade, so as to prepare for a breakout as a last resort."

    Having said this, Guo Bingxun hesitated and said, "If they can come back safely."

    Regarding Guo Bingxun's analysis, Yang Zhen nodded and said: "I have similar ideas. But regardless of whether the Japanese will send reconnaissance planes to conduct aerial reconnaissance in the southern mountains of Ning'an again, as soon as the snow stops, the troops must immediately carry out actual combat training.  Just like what you said, after the Japanese army failed to clear up Dunhua territory, they will definitely turn their target to the mountainous area in the southwest of Ning'an."

    After that, Yang Zhen took the map and said: "However, I don't think we should do our actual combat training here. It is best not to expose this secret camp as much as possible. To fight the Japanese, we need a place to place the wounded and  We only have this secret base for supplies. Once exposed, we will have no where to go  "

    "Lao Guo, look from Laoheidingzi Mountain to the southwest is the intersection of Zhangguangcai Ridge and Laoye Ridge. The straight-line distance from here is less than 20 kilometers. I went there to see the terrain a few days ago. It has a radius of about 500 kilometers.  The terrain is good, the entire altitude is about one thousand meters, there are two peaks with an altitude of more than 1,700 meters, and there are small areas of flat land in the mountains, and I think it is completely suitable for practical training.  At the junction of Dunhua and Ning'an, the actual training ground is chosen here, and it can also support Li Mingrui and others. "

    Regarding Yang Zhen's thoughts, Guo Bingxun pondered for a while and said: "Commander, you took the troops there for training. Have you ever thought about how to deal with the Japanese and puppet troops who entered the mountains to clear out the troops? And the main force was taken away.  Okay, what should we do if we encounter a situation here in the secret camp?

    "You know, all our supplies are stored here. Once the secret camp is lost, then we will lose our only support. The commander-in-chief is also here. If the commander-in-chief is lost, how will the entire Second Route Army look at us?  Wangshan Run is 20 kilometers on the map. If you walk in the mountains, you will need to add at least half of the distance. What's more, if something happens in the secret camp, even if the main force rushes over.  It¡¯s too late for reinforcements.¡±

    "Commander, we can disperse the supplies. The entire Laohedingzi area is so large, there are many places where supplies can be hidden. I have talked a lot with the cadres of the Second Route Army who came with the commander-in-chief these days, and learned a lot  Their experience. I think we can disperse some of the supplies based on the Second Route Army¡¯s guerrilla experience and build a few more secret camps. I think these supplies can be well concealed.¡±

    "It is true that we are ready for battle, but we cannot be too cautious. For us now, the most important thing to do is to establish more hiding spots and secret camps, so that all materials, except the necessary ones, can be dispersed and hidden.  Part of it. It can also be used as a place for the sick and wounded.¡±

    "The second is to let the troops form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. We have been hiding here for two months. After these two months of hard training, the troops' tactical literacy and the use of various tactics, except for weapon operation, have been greatly improved from before.  Progress. We may not have the ability to fight the Japanese army."

    "Actual combat training does not take long. Our veterans who have participated in combat already have actual combat experience. All they need to strengthen is various firepower coordination training to ensure that there will no longer be a few heavy machine guns that cannot suppress the Japanese."  The light machine gun situation.¡±

    "Compared to veterans who have fought several battles and lack all kinds of collaborative training, these trainings are mainly for new recruits. Some necessary training should be carried out so that new recruits who have not experienced training will not be vulnerable to the artillery fire of the Japanese and puppet troops.  It¡¯s just a matter of getting a feel for the battlefield atmosphere in advance, and this kind of training doesn¡¯t take long, I think five or six days is enough.¡±

    "Although the snow will expose part of our whereabouts, as long as we are prepared, we should be able to hide our tracks. We can regard the secret camp as our support, but we cannot hang ourselves in a secret camp. As the saying goes  Well, the cunning rabbit still has three caves, let alone us?¡±

    "Commander, I think it's better for this training to be done near the secret camp. First, it allows the soldiers to get a quick rest after training fatigue. In the severe cold of more than 40 degrees below zero, it is impossible for people to live in the wild for a long time.  Secondly, it is also convenient for supplies. There are more than a thousand troops here. How can we provide them with supplies? "

    Having said this, Guo Bingxun raised his head and looked at Yang Zhen and said: "Commander, what is the purpose of our training troops? It is not to stay here and serve as our personal guards. It is to fight against the Japanese, and we will fight out sooner or later."  Now that the army is about to take shape, we must fight early and late.¡±

    "The actual commander should know better than me. For a unit, three months of training is more about developing the most basic military qualities and laying some tactical foundations. As for other necessary training, it will take quite a long time.  time."

    "Under the circumstance that the situation cannot give us so much time, it has actually become our only option to carry out basic training for the troops and then engage in power training. So Commander, judging from the current situation, I think there will be no more  We should be able to attack in half a month. Instead of waiting passively for the Japanese to come, we might as well take advantage of the heavy snow to attack."

    "Commander, after you told me that day to prepare a contingency plan, I have been thinking about it these days. Why should we wait for the Japanese to come and beat us after they have completed the clearing of northern Dunhua?"

    "Now that the basic tactical training of the troops has been completed, why can't we take the initiative and take advantage of the Japanese troops to attack us? What is the best way to protect the secret camp? It is to destroy the Japanese soldiers who may besiege us."?.  Simply diverting their attention is not the best way.  Although we can't keep the enemy away from our home, we can't let them reach our door smoothly, right?  "

    "The Japanese are pulling a net to clear out the northern part of Dunhua. We can take this opportunity to defeat him. After conducting simple actual combat training for the troops, we will disperse and conceal the materials here and quickly move southward. Try to fight a few battles in the northern part of Dunhua to attract more attention.  Some Japanese soldiers blocked their forces and then moved eastward to fight outside, or looked for opportunities to enter hiding again. "

    Regarding Guo Bingxun¡¯s suggestion to take the initiative, Yang Zhen pondered for a long time and said: "Old Guo, I am a little too aggressive. You are right. If you want to keep the secret camp, simply diverting attention is not the best way.
