Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Japanese army in the Xingshan area took the initiative to shrink its defense line due to a temporary shortage of troops. It turned out that the Japanese army's regular patrols outside the blockade had also temporarily stopped.  [.Com text] After all, it is not an easy task to take custody of more than 20,000 workers.  Especially under the situation of relatively insufficient troops, the Japanese army could only suspend some minor steps.

    Due to insufficient troop strength, the Japanese troops stopped patrolling the perimeter.  Liu Changshun's troops were also under the supervision of cadres at all levels. Except for the occasional voice of command and the sound of conveying orders, most of the officers and soldiers took the time to wipe their weapons and prepare for battle, and no one spoke.  Except for the phosphorus fire flashing through the corpses of dead workers on the surrounding mountains, the entire mountain forest seemed very quiet.

    When the hands of the watch reached one o'clock in the evening, Dong Ping, who served as the vanguard, led his reconnaissance company to set off first.  His mission was to infiltrate first, touch the line of Linden Tree Spring, kill the Japanese overseers, and find the structural diagram of the entire fortress that should exist.

    Half an hour after Dong Ping set off, Liu Changshun secretly transported the main force back to the barbed wire fence north of Zhanji Mountain and lurked.  As soon as Dong Ping sends back a signal, he will launch a full-scale attack.

    More than 300 meters behind them, the two mountain artillery companies commanded by Hu Zhaoshan, as well as the regiment's mortar company and infantry artillery company, were ready for fire support.  But Hu Zhaoshan, who really didn't know where to hit the shells in their hands, was also at a loss.  There was no actual target, not even an actual map. This was the first time Hu Zhaoshan had fought this kind of battle.

    Fortunately, Ma Chunsheng saw Hu Zhaoshan's sad face and gave him a hand.  Ma Chunsheng told him directly that wherever there were Japanese firepower points, he would hit them there.  Where the bullet is fired, his cannonball will land there.  Once Dong Ping's infiltration fails and the Japanese army continues to resist, his mountain artillery must destroy the exposed firepower points of the Japanese army in the shortest possible time.

    "However, although the artillery has been assigned tasks, Ma Chunsheng has deep doubts about how much role the artillery can play in this battle.  The Battle of Qunce Mountain has clearly shown that these small-caliber 75mm mountain field guns are of great use to the reinforced concrete fortifications built by the Japanese army that never cut corners and are one meter or more thick.  limited.

    For these extremely strong reinforced concrete fortifications, hitting them with a 75mm caliber artillery shell is like scratching an itch, at most it will scratch a little bit of the skin.  Judging from what was observed during the day, the fortifications built by the Japanese army at Xingshan Fortress, the main defense support point in the entire Northeast Manchuria region, were much stronger than Qunce Mountain, which was used as a secret warehouse.

    Since the main combat target of Xingshan Fortress is the Soviet army, the anti-attack standards of all the fortifications here are built according to the firepower standards for defense against the Soviet army.  The Japanese army suffered a lot from the heavy artillery of the Soviet army in the First Battle of Zhanggufeng, so as soon as the battle of Zhanggufeng ended, the Japanese army made modifications to the fortifications that had been built here.  The strength of its fortifications is far beyond what these 75mm mountain field guns can shake.

    And Ma Chunsheng didn¡¯t really believe in the artillery¡¯s night fighting capabilities.  Ma Chunsheng, who witnessed the artillery's performance in the Battle of Jiamusi and the training at Qunce Mountain, did not distrust the artillery.  The training of these artillerymen is extremely hard and the requirements are extremely strict.  Even according to Ma Chunsheng, who has a certain understanding of Japanese artillery training, the training intensity of these artillery units has almost exceeded that of the Japanese army.

    But after all, the time is too short. It only takes two months from the establishment of these artillery units to the present.  No matter how hard you work and how intense your training is, the foundation is still there.  Night fighting, especially artillery night fighting, is very demanding.  These artillery units, at least for now, are not capable of this.

    Whether it was his hesitation about the strength of Japanese military fortifications or the artillery's night fighting capabilities, Ma Chunsheng did not prioritize artillery fire support.  In his opinion, compared with artillery, the reconnaissance battalion, which is good at penetration and tactical reconnaissance, is more suitable for the current battle.

    After arranging and deploying all the firepower, Ma Chunsheng raised his telescope and once again turned his attention to the darkness. Except for the occasional flash of searchlights, he fell into the silent position of the mountain, trying to find something.

    "Compared with Ma Chunsheng, who was there with the old god, Liu Changshun beside him seemed very anxious.  While holding the telescope and waiting for the signal from Dong Ping, he looked at the hands on the watch from time to time.

    When the pointer on the watch pointed to two o'clock, the scheduled attack time, and intensive gunshots were heard on Xingshan Street, but the signal from Dong Ping had not been received yet, Liu Changshun finally lost his temper.  .  Turning to Ma Chunsheng, he said, "I'm talking to you, Lao Ma, it's already two o'clock. The political commissar has already started the fight. Why hasn't Dong Ping sent a signal yet? Could something happen to him?"

    Regarding Liu Changshun's question, Ma Chunsheng shook his head: "Probably not. If Dong Ping's actions are exposed, there will definitely be gunfire inside. ButThere is no unusual movement now, indicating that they have not been exposed yet.  This Xingshan Fortress is very large, covering almost the entire mountainous area around Shitou Temple.  "

    "Dong Ping has to penetrate into the core Japanese position within an hour without alerting the enemy, and he has to deal with more than a hundred supervisors and Japanese guard troops. It will take a certain amount of time. But since time has already passed  We¡¯re here, so we can¡¯t wait any longer. Regardless of whether Dong Ping sends a signal or not, we must attack on time.¡±

    Ma Chunsheng¡¯s words had just finished, and Liu Changshun hadn¡¯t had time to answer.  In addition to the dense gunfire coming from the direction of Xingshan Street in the distance, dense gunfire suddenly rang out in the quiet mountain position.

    Liu Changshun and Ma Chunsheng, who were about to answer, heard the unique gunfire from the mountains of the submachine guns equipped in large numbers by the reconnaissance company, as well as the dull gunfire of the Type 92 heavy machine gun, occasionally mixed with the explosion of grenades.  Looking at each other, the first feeling was that Dong Ping's actions had been exposed.  The reconnaissance company was not equipped with Type 92 heavy machine guns. When such gunshots were heard from the mountains, it could only be said that the reconnaissance company's actions had been exposed.

    After Ma Chunsheng, who reacted quickly, heard the gunshots, he immediately turned his head and said firmly to Liu Changshun: "Attack immediately, don't wait any longer. Judging from the gunshots fired back by the Japs, the Japs had at least two heavy machine guns." Dong  They don't have heavy weapons, so they will suffer big losses when encountering heavy machine guns."

    Liu Changshun, who knew that the situation was serious, did not dare to hesitate after hearing Ma Chunsheng's suggestion. He quickly turned around and gave the order to the troops to launch an immediate attack.

    After receiving the order, the first two companies used grenades as quickly as possible to blow up the Japanese barbed wire fence in pieces, opening a passage for the follow-up.  Launch an attack.  The follow-up troops followed the passage opened by the leading company and all launched an attack according to the predetermined plan.

    The leading company fought smoothly, and the Japanese organized resistance was not strong.  Before the attacking troops could reach the main position on the mountain, the intense gunfire suddenly stopped.

    The troops who were confused by the sudden stop of the gunfire, under the strict orders of Ma Chunsheng who followed the assault troops, did not stop because of the change in the situation and continued to rush towards the place where the gunfire had just sounded.  past.

    When they reached the target and saw Dong Ping, who was counting the captured Japanese weapons, Ma Chunsheng, who had not yet exerted his strength, knew that the battle was over.

    Dong Ping was startled when he saw Ma Chunsheng actually coming in with the first batch of assault troops. He quickly ran over and saluted and reported: "Report to Chief of Staff Ma, all the enemy defenders on Position Mountain have been wiped out. After twenty-five minutes,  In the battle, our reconnaissance company attacked and annihilated 360 Japanese guards and more than 100 armed supervisors, and captured more than 200 remaining supervisors. "

    Hearing Dong Ping¡¯s report, Ma Chunsheng frowned and said, ¡°Why are there so many Japanese troops here? Could it be that the entire Japanese garrison in the Xingshan Fortress area is here?¡±

    Looking at Ma Chunsheng who was a little disbelieving, Dong Ping smiled and said: "Chief of Staff, you are right. Not only are the entire Japanese garrison and supervisors of Xingshan Fortress here, but most of the laborers are now concentrated here.  ¡±

    "Since the 37th Regiment was transferred, there were not enough Japanese troops to guard the workers. In order to facilitate their so-called management, according to the order of the captain of the Xingshan Japanese Military Police, starting today, after the work is over, all the workers will be transferred  Concentrated custody here.¡±

    Regarding Dong Ping's answer, Ma Chunsheng smiled bitterly and shook his head after all his doubts were gone. All his hard work was in vain. The Japanese army actually took the initiative to gather the security forces and all the workers together.  But it was all in vain. The Japanese army did not know how to appreciate it, but it saved them a lot of effort.

    After turning around and telling the correspondent who was following him to immediately report the situation here to the regiment leader, Ma Chunsheng turned to Dong Ping and said, "Tell me about your battle. When you hear the sound of heavy machine guns coming from here, you can tell the regiment  The commander and I are extremely anxious, fearing that you will suffer a big loss without heavy weapons."

    Regarding Ma Chunsheng's worries, Dong Ping scratched his head and smiled and said: "The gunshots heard at that time were not due to the exchange of fire between us and the Japanese army, but the fact that we used the captured Japanese heavy machine guns to prevent the Japanese troops from rushing out of the barracks.  "

    "After we infiltrated and touched the area around Lishu Spring, we found that the number of Japanese soldiers was different from the previous infiltration reconnaissance results. The number was much larger. In order to understand the situation, we captured a Japanese soldier who was sleeping and confused.  Translation. As a result, I found out that the entire Japanese garrison squadron of Xingshan Fortress had arrived at Lishu Spring. All the workers were also taken here for centralized custody.

    ¡°Understand the situation and what is expected to happen.?Changes, we also changed our tactics.  We decided to attack the Japanese garrison first, while the unarmed Japanese supervisors lined up one platoon to guard them first.  "

    "In fact, due to insufficient troops, the overall security of the Japanese army, which focused mainly on laborers, was not very strict. Although they decided to use knives, in order to avoid accidents, we took away the three Japanese military perimeter security posts and captured them.  The Type 92 heavy machine guns were brought over. Three heavy machine guns plus three of our own light machine guns were arranged in three trips to the Japanese barracks to deal with emergencies. "

    "You have to be fully prepared, otherwise you will have to suffer a big loss. Although the overall security of the little devils is not strict, they are all well-trained elites after all. When our soldiers were solving the Japanese army in a room, they had to fight with a  The encounter with the Japanese army in the early night. Because it was too smooth before, our soldiers lost their alertness and took action late. Although they killed the guy, they alerted the Japanese army. "

    "Fortunately, we made complete preparations. That burst of gunfire was when we used machine gun fire to destroy the awakened Japanese troops. In addition to the more than 100 Japanese troops who had been solved with knives before, after 20 minutes of fierce fighting, the rest were wiped out.  The Japanese army. In addition to the Japanese security squadron, more than a hundred of their supervisors were killed by us because of their resistance.¡±

    After listening to Dong Ping's report, Ma Chunsheng said with appreciation; "You can quickly change tactics in a short period of time according to changes in the situation, and make the most correct choice for yourself. And you have adjusted so successfully, your  The resilience can be found in our entire army. The troops led by the commander are truly extraordinary."

    Dong Ping smiled sheepishly at Ma Chunsheng's praise, then suddenly remembered something, and quickly took out a stack of drawings from his shoulder bag, handed them to Ma Chunsheng and said, "This is where the Japanese supervisor lives."  What was found in the place should be the structural diagram of the entire Xingshan Fortress.¡±

    Taking the drawings handed over by Dong Ping, Ma Chunsheng quickly looked at them carefully with the flashlight of the guard beside him, then took out a few pictures and handed them to Dong Ping and said: "You are right, this is the Xingshan Fortress."  The overall structure diagram. I am giving you two companies. Follow the traffic trenches and underground passages shown in this drawing and search all the places in the Xingshan Fortress carefully. "

    "Remember, it is the entire Xingshan Fortress and a careful search. The commander intends to use this place as a strategic support point and move the headquarters and the main force here. Therefore, it must be cleaned up and absolutely no one can be left behind.  One soldier."

    It was the first time that Dong Ping heard that Yang Zhen wanted to move his headquarters here. He was shocked after hearing Ma Chunsheng's words. He didn't dare to delay any longer and quickly mobilized his troops to launch a carpet-like search of the entire Xingshan Fortress.  .

    But just when he was about to turn around and lead the team off, Ma Chunsheng's words came from behind him: "Be careful, don't go in easily when you encounter unknown places. Also, use grenades when encountering resistance."
