- In fact, Yasui Toji was not very resolute in carrying out the orders of General Umezu Yoshijiro. In order to avoid losses as much as possible, Yasui Toji only transferred one brigade from the 4th Regiment and the 30th Regiment, and from the 16th and 29th Regiment, Each of the two regiments deployed two infantry squadrons, equipped with one squadron of cavalry and two squadrons of artillery, and strengthened a heavy mortar squadron to form a detachment commanded by Major General Taro Katayama. ¡¾.Com text¡¿
Originally, for this roundabout detachment, Fujiji Yasui only deployed two infantry brigades and strengthened one part of the cavalry and artillery. The subsequent four squadrons were added only after strong protests from Hattori Takushiro. The original number of two infantry brigades was already quite large in the opinion of Fujiji Yasui, but it was far from the strength of at least one regiment or more required by Hattori Takushiro. This made Hattori Takushiro extremely dissatisfied.
What makes Hattori Takushiro even more dissatisfied is that before departure, Yasui Toji replaced the chief of staff of the 15th Brigade, kicked Hattori Takushiro out, and temporarily appointed him as the chief of staff of the roundabout detachment.
In the view of Hattori Takushiro, Ani Toji's actions were obviously suspected of frame-up. With two infantry brigades and six infantry squadrons as a detour force, you, Fujiharu Yasui, really think that every person in your second division is a monster that cannot be killed if one is worth a hundred. If you ask me to be the chief of staff with such a small force, is it not a frame-up?
It¡¯s just that although Takushiro Hattori was extremely dissatisfied with the appointment of Toji Ani, he couldn¡¯t say no. As soon as he opened his mouth, he kept his mouth shut: "This combat plan was drawn up by Lieutenant Colonel Hattori himself. Only if you go, the execution will be more effective. Only in this way can we ensure that the troops are fully implemented according to the plan."
He opened his mouth and was blocked back. Knowing that the matter was a certainty, Hattori Takushiro thought of ways to increase the strength of the roundabout detachment. Fortunately, he was a superior after all, and T¨ji Yasui didn't make things too difficult for him. Under the severe beating of Hattori Takushiro, who was strongly dissatisfied, Yasui T¨haru still transferred two infantry squadrons and a heavy machine gun squadron from the 16th and 29th regiments.
It¡¯s not that he can¡¯t mobilize more troops, but if the strength of at least one regiment required by that guy is really met, then the main strength of the division will be a bit thin. Although the Second Division deployed all four regiments this time, only two infantry brigades came to each regiment. And only three of the four squadrons of each infantry group came.
As the main force and general reserve force of the entire Kwantung Army on the eastern front, the Second Division is a fully-manned Category A division with a total strength of more than 20,000 people. However, the 24th Division, which was ordered to replace the remnants of the main force's loss this time, served as the main force in the second phase of the suppression, but not all members were dispatched. Toji Yasui and Mizujiro Umezu, who repeatedly asked them to all go out, did a big shadowboxing.
Except for the three regiments of artillery, baggage troops, and cavalry, which were all dispatched, only 60% of the field troops came. In addition to the eight infantry brigades participating in the battle, the 12 field infantry brigades of the Second Division also left four infantry brigades behind in Mudanjiang.
In addition, not all of the shrinking troops participating in the war crossed the river. The cunning and over-cautious Yasui Fujiharu, who put safety first, left six infantry squadrons, one artillery brigade, and one cavalry squadron to form a fairly small detachment, serving as a supporting force in Jiangbei.
Otherwise, with the overwhelming pressure of the Second Division's more than 20,000 elite troops, even if Liu Changshun is defending, even if he adds all non-combatants, the Second Brigade will only have a strength of more than 10,000 troops. In addition to the slight advantage in individual firepower, In addition, both the strength and quality of the soldiers are at a disadvantage, and the firepower is at an absolute disadvantage. Even with the right tactics, it's a miracle that we can last so many days without being defeated.
Although he was a little unwilling to give up, Hattori Takushiro also knew that he could not do anything to this veteran lieutenant general. This Yasui Fujiharu, who comes from a family of businessmen and has worked in the General Staff Headquarters for many years, is comparable to the commander of the 23rd Division who was beaten with a bruised nose and face in Nomonhan, and the commander of the 23rd Division, who comes from a family of naval engineers and shipbuilding engineers, and has been engaged in intelligence work against the Soviet Union for many years. It¡¯s too difficult to deceive.
Before the roundabout detachment was about to set off, Toji Yasui talked with Major General Katayama Shozaburo alone for most of the night. Looking at Major General Katayama Shozaburo, Lieutenant General Yasui Toji thought for a long time before saying: "Katayama-kun, your detour route this time is all in mountains. And previous battles have shown that our opponents are best at fighting in mountains."
"They are very cunning. I have always suspected that they were bluffing along the Haoliang River. Previously, the 24th and 25th Divisions advanced together. The 24th Division in the middle was their main force, and they pointed their main finger at them. Because they knew that they had defeated the 24th Division, they broke the Kwantung Army's suppression operation."
¡°This time they are likely to replicate what they planned in the first phase.??, take advantage of our second division. If they don't move, they will stop. If they move, they will be like an eagle attacking a rabbit, and a tiger will not hesitate when descending from the mountain. This is also the reason why I left six infantry squadrons in Jiangnan as mobile support forces. "
"You must be very cautious when making this detour, and don't listen to Hattori Takushir¨'s instigation. Lieutenant General Komatsubara listened to this guy's bragging and got crazy, causing the 23rd Division to suffer heavy losses and almost the entire army was destroyed. We are so tired that most of the troops of the 7th Division have been defeated. We cannot repeat the mistakes of Lieutenant General Komatsubara."
"The strength of two brigades is not too much, even if four squadrons are added. I don't know if the decision to leave the strength of four brigades in Mudanjiang was wrong. I am indeed cautious in this battle. I don¡¯t want to underestimate the enemy and risk my life. The 24th Division is still tired and almost all the troops are wiped out. "
"You have to use Hattori Takushiro, but you have to be on guard. This man is indeed talented, but he is also too bold. There is nothing in this world that he dare not do. Give him a bamboo pole, and he will dare to give you the sky. Poke a hole. General Ueda Kenkichi is able to get where he is today. He and his group of staff are at least half of the factors."
Major General Katayama Shozaburo understood what Lieutenant General Yasuji Toji said. What Toji Anjing means is just one sentence, be cautious and be more cautious. It¡¯s just that Major General Katayama Shosaburo couldn¡¯t figure out why Toji Yasui transferred Hattori Takushiro to the bypass detachment and served as chief of staff. But since Toji Yasui didn't say anything, it was hard for him, a subordinate, to ask.
After Major General Katayama Shozaburo led the roundabout detachment to set off, I don¡¯t know why a thick shadow appeared in Toji Yasui¡¯s heart. Eight infantry brigades were transferred, equivalent to three infantry brigades, leaving five on hand. After losing nearly two infantry brigades in the past few days, Yasui Toji's remaining troops were actually no more than Major General Katayama Shozaburo.
After the detachment led by Major General Saburo Katayama set off, Toji Yasui transferred the six squadrons he had left on the south bank of the Songhua River without any hesitation. Deployed on the front line of Taiping and Fuguitun behind him. And gathered the remaining troops on hand together.
The news that Fujiji Yasui finally divided the troops into a regiment was immediately learned by Guo Bingxun. After receiving this information, Guo Bingxun immediately ordered Liu Changshun to immediately alternate cover and retreat to the general's stone-lined position. The telegram ordered Wang Guangyu to immediately march eastward at night and under the stars. Directly inserted into the Alingda River line of Xihetun and Fugui, and seized Yongfa, the important site of the Jiahe Railway.
Finally receiving the order to retreat, Liu Changshun did not dare to delay, and immediately organized troops overnight to alternately cover the withdrawal of the three villages that had been reduced to ruins. Break away from contact with the Japanese army and retreat as quickly as possible towards General Shixian. However, before retreating, Liu Changshun unceremoniously buried all the remaining landmines on hand on the Jiahe Highway.
Liu Changshun was extremely angry after being suppressed and beaten by the Japanese army these days. Since we don't have enough troops, there is nothing we can do against the Second Division. However, it is still possible to use landmines to vent their anger and block the pursuit of the second division.
After receiving the report that his opponent had retreated, Fujiji Yasui did not immediately launch a large-scale pursuit, and his actions were still unhurried. Demining unhurriedly, marching unhurriedly. The number of servants it dispatched was as large as a squadron plus a cavalry squadron.
Anjing Toji was too careful, allowing Liu Changshun to safely evacuate to the general stone line designated by Guo Bingxun without any danger. After arriving at Jiangjunshixianxian, he sat down on the mountain ground and Liu Changshun let out a long breath.
The Second Brigade has been fighting very hard these past few days, with more than half of its casualties already lost. It was no longer possible to maintain a wide frontal defense. Although it was not reduced to an empty frame like Wang Guangyu did before, when the previous three regiments withdrew to General Shixian, they could only be pieced together into one regiment. Withdrawing to the front line of Jiangjunshi, Liu Changshun could finally breathe a sigh of relief knowing that a full-line counterattack was about to begin. I know that my hard life has finally come to an end.
" Moreover, Liu Changshun always felt that he had no bottom when it came to blocking the attack on plain terrain. Leaving the mountains is like having no support. Now that he has retreated to the mountainous area, he feels psychologically secure.
Seeing Liu Changshun let out a long breath, Wang Xiaoming, Ma Chunsheng, and Chai Shirong on the side also looked at each other and laughed. The tremendous pressure these days has made the commanders of the Second Brigade extremely nervous. Now that a full-scale counterattack was imminent, several people breathed a sigh of relief.
When Chai Shirong arrived at the front line, he was shocked. He was used to fighting guerrilla warfare, crawling around in the mountains and forests, and never fighting hard. This was the first time he saw this kind of aircraft in the sky, a large number of artillery on the ground, and the Japanese army's squadron-based group charge. Ways of fighting.
"This kind of aircraft bombing takes turns in the sky, and the artillery on the ground concentrates its firepower attack." ?Chai Shirong was surprised by the combat method, with an average of three to four hundred rounds of bombs being dropped every day on the front-line positions. At the same time, he also felt that he had too much to learn. I was asked to fight this kind of formal positional battle, and I didn't even know how to fight it.
After these days of blocking battles, not only Chai Shirong was not used to it, but even the commander-in-chief of the First Army and several regiment cadres who personally led the team to watch and learn were surprised while clicking their tongues. If they were left to fight on their own, it wouldn't take long for them to fight in just one day. Several league cadres communicated privately, and they all thought highly of themselves all day long, and it was a fluke to be able to hold the top position for half a day.
It¡¯s not that they lack the will to die, it¡¯s just that they have never had this experience. The troops of the First Anti-Union Army had never fought such a battle. On the bare plains, they fought head-on with the Japanese troops who were equipped to the teeth. They had never fought like this before.
After several days of fierce fighting, Liu Changshun's Second Brigade had suffered enough casualties in their eyes to lose its combat capability, but it still hadn't collapsed. They were surprised that there were so many casualties and there was still fighting power. The commander-in-chief of the First Army once lamented to his subordinates in private: "It seems that there is a certain reason why they were able to build such a large foundation in such a short period of time."
Liu Changshun naturally didn¡¯t know what the Commander-in-Chief of the First Route Army was thinking. But he was quite dissatisfied with the delay in replenishing the troops. The three regiments were crippled and now they can only form one regiment. How can we fight this battle without replenishing our troops? I don't want to sit on the sidelines while I fight back.
Regarding Liu Changshun's depression, Wang Xiaoming smiled bitterly and said: "Don't worry, the chief of staff will not fail to consider replenishing our troops. The head of the headquarters has the consideration of the head of the headquarters, we will just wait. The head of the headquarters will not counterattack across the board soon." time, leaving us alone.¡±
In response to Wang Xiaoming's persuasion, Liu Changshun said anxiously: "But time waits for no one. After the additional troops arrive, they have only two days to get familiar with the troops. And it will take longer to completely integrate them. I guess Wang Guangyu Now that we have set off, the full-scale counterattack will only take a day or two, and we will really be unable to catch up without the additional troops.¡±
"I don't know what the chief of staff is thinking. From the beginning of the Jiangbei blockade, we have been head-to-head with the Second Division. The casualties were so heavy that not a single soldier was replenished. Except for the miscellaneous barracks two days ago. Apart from that, not even a single sign of a replacement soldier was seen.¡±
"We are the main force, so he is not afraid of losing everything and having no way to explain to the commander? Our counselor, despite his usually gentle appearance, is actually tougher than anyone else in his heart. What determination has he made? The political commissar has changed It¡¯s not his decision. I really don¡¯t know how two people with such strong attitudes came together. Do you think the chief of staff did this behind the commander¡¯s back?¡±
Just when Liu Changshun was arranging Guo Bingxun here because of the delay in replenishing his troops, a cold voice suddenly came out from behind him: "I gave the order. If you have anything to do with me, come to me. If I hear it again in the future, If you are mumbling this behind the Chief of Staff, if not, just go to the cooking class."
