Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In response to Zhang Zhenhua's rhetorical question, Yang Zhen did not answer him immediately, but looked very tired and closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. Zhang Zhenhua's words "Should we also learn from them and become as inhumane as them" obviously greatly stimulated him.  .  [.Com text] As for the following sentence, if the central government knew about it, it would be very detrimental to him. It was not untouched, but it was not big. After a long silence, Yang Zhen opened his eyes fiercely.  Although the voice sounded like he was talking to himself, the words he spoke were clearly addressed to Zhang Zhenhua: "If a mad dog keeps biting you and wants to eat you alive, what should you do? Should you use  Give it a good beating by any means possible and make it run away when it sees you in the future?¡±

    After that, Yang Zhen looked at the marching group outside the window of the car he was riding in and was sent back by the commander-in-chief and said: "Since these things were developed by little Japan to specifically harm the Chinese, then they should think that one day  I will suffer the same retaliation."

    "They have opened Pandora's box, and they have to bear the consequences. These things cannot only harm the Chinese, but the demons who use them are not punished in any way. I said that I am not broad-minded and cannot learn.  Those things about repaying evil with kindness.¡±

    "I only know that I will use all means to retaliate against those who harm my Chinese compatriots by any means. Tooth for tooth, eye for eye. If you give me a punch, even if I can't beat you. But even if it means biting, I will bite  Giving me a piece of your flesh is the best way to retaliate, isn't it?

    "Talking to those beasts about benevolence, justice and morality? You think too highly of them. When friends come, of course they have good wine, but when wolves come, all they have to greet them is shotguns. I am not Mr. Dongguo, but I am the one among the farmers and the snakes.  Farmer, I will not do anything to raise tigers."

    The treasures Yang Zhen and Zhang Zhenhua talked about were none other than the thousands of 75mm poison gas shells dropped when the 104th Division was defeated on the front line of Guanmenzuizi Mountain.  Most of them are extremely lethal suffocating gases, as well as a small amount of corrosive gases.

    Now that Yang Zhen has decided to cross the Yangtze River and go south, the two infantry brigades of the Fourth Division currently stationed on the front line of Lianjiangkou, a cavalry brigade and the cavalry regiment of the Second Division have not only become the biggest obstacles, but also become the biggest obstacles for him to go south.  The biggest worry in combat.

    Among the Japanese troops stationed in the entire Xiajiang area, except for the 24th Division, which suffered a severe blow and lost its combat capability, it had withdrawn to the so-called Xinjing for reinforcements.  Most of the 25th Division was defeated, and only the 14th Regiment was still far away from the line of Haoliang River. Now only the 4th Division remained.

    This fourth division is not only the only remaining field division of the Japanese army in the entire Jiamusi area, but also its main force responsible for river defense tasks.  If he wants to fight out, this fourth division will be his main opponent.  The ability of this fourth division to fight in the field is not strong, but after the last detour to Jiamusi, Yang Zhen still had some headaches about the ability of this fourth division to defend the city.

    Based on the habits of the Fourth Division, if they retreat to Jiamusi, it will not only take a lot of time to capture Jiamusi, but more importantly, it will cause unnecessary casualties.  So Yang Zhen has made up his mind that since the fourth division has come out, it is best to annihilate them in a field battle.

    Especially in the fourth division's defense line, which starts from Fujin on the Manchu-Soviet border in the north, and is distributed along the Songhua River to the junction of Jiamusi and Yilan.  Its forces are now dispersedly deployed. The two infantry brigades on the front line of Lianjiangkou plus a cavalry brigade are almost all of its current garrison in Jiamusi.  Once this Japanese army is annihilated, Jiamusi, which is depleted of troops, will have almost no troops to defend.

    Now that he has made up his mind to defeat or even annihilate this Japanese army, all Yang Zhen has to consider is how to finish the battle as quickly as possible with the least casualties.  However, under the circumstances of insufficient artillery shells and the fact that the troops had been fighting continuously for more than a month and were exhausted, in order to achieve the maximum results with minimum casualties.

    Despite some hesitation, Yang Zhen was determined to use the thousands of Japanese poison gas shells seized on the Guanmenzuizi Mountain front line.  Now that we have entered October, the northerly wind is blowing and the weather is starting to get cooler.

    Going south, we are on the upper wind. The current wind direction and timing are the best opportunities to launch a poison gas war.  And the wind is not strong now.  Although the Lianjiangkou line is only separated from Jiamusi by a river, there is no need to worry that these poisonous gas shells will harm the urban area of ??Jiamusi in the south of the Yangtze River.

    After saying these words, Yang Zhen closed his eyes again, not explaining anything.  Zhang Zhenhua on the other side listened to his words and did not ask any more questions.  But he fell into a thoughtful state.

    When arriving at the front line of Shuangfatun, Yang Zhen met Yu Wenze who came to meet him.  After seeing Yang Zhen, Yu Wenze said with some shame: "Yes.I can't afford the commander, the battle was not fought well, and the Japanese troops who fled south were not able to be wiped out. You can criticize me.  "

    The battle was not fought well, and what he said before was a bit loud, which made Yu Wenze feel very embarrassed when he saw Yang Zhen.  In fact, he knew that many people in the army had objections to the fact that the cavalry battalion had not participated in the war since its formation.  The daily consumption of a cavalry is almost equal to that of an infantry squad.

    The consumption of a cavalry battalion, not counting weapons and equipment, is enough for a regiment.  You must know that the infantry regiment under Yang Zhen's command is full of three thousand people.  These war horses, which require balanced nutrition, can eat more than humans, and they are also much pickier.  At the very least, the large amount of bean cakes required to supplement the nutrition of the war horses every day is a huge number.

    ? These war horses used to charge into battle are not the horses that drive shafts and plow the fields just for providing some fodder.  It requires a large amount of highly nutritious feed.  Therefore, the entire army had strong opinions on this cavalry battalion, which could eat and drink, but had been pampered and unable to go into battle since its formation.

    Especially since this cavalry battalion was ahead of other troops, almost simultaneously with the commander's eyeball reconnaissance battalion, it was equipped with a 60mm mortar that was much more powerful than a grenade that made other troops' eyes red.  And compared with it, after the Type 92 heavy machine gun currently equipped as the main force of the army is a rubbish Type 81 general-purpose machine gun, what the infantry said was a bit unpleasant.

    So this time the cavalry battalion team, especially the battalion commander Yu Wenze, after receiving the order to pursue the Japanese army, made up their minds to fight a beautiful battle and silence the infantry.

    It¡¯s just that the plan didn¡¯t change quickly. Yu Wenze, who was full of confidence, didn¡¯t expect that his first punch hit the iron plate.  What was already a certain battle in his eyes turned out to be an anticlimax.  This really made him lose face.

    Looking at Yu Wenze who looked depressed, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Don't say anything if you want to apologize. What's more, under the circumstances, what you did was not wrong. Compared with not kicking away the first time,  What I'm more worried about is whether you will be hot-headed and cause unnecessary losses to the troops. Now it seems that you have done a good job. I did not choose the wrong person for this cavalry battalion. "

    After comforting Yu Wenze, Yang Zhen habitually opened the map and said: "You are the closest unit of our army to the Lianjiang Mouth. You have been tracking and pursuing the remnants of the Second Division since the Japanese army picked them up.  You should be very familiar with the movements of the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou. Please report on the movements of the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou."

    Yang Zhen¡¯s comfort obviously made Yu Wenze feel much better.  After hearing Yang Zhen's request for a briefing on the situation, he quickly said: "Commander, except for the Second Cavalry Regiment, no new troops were added to the Lianjiangkou front line. After picking up the remnants of the Second Division, they all shrank back.  The line of Lianjiang mouth has not retreated to the south of the Yangtze River even if it advances northward."

    "However, we found that the Japanese army was mobilizing ferries from the south of the Yangtze River and docked on the river near the mouth of the Japanese Lianjiang River. In addition, several gunboats from the puppet Manchuria Army also mobilized and parked in the middle of the river, with their muzzles pointing towards the north bank.  If there is any disturbance on the north shore, use cannon fire.¡±

    "From the surface, the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou seem to be preparing to retreat. As for the strength of the troops before our arrival, I don't know. By the way, there is another situation. Before you arrived, I mobilized a cavalry  The company tried to lure the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou to fight, hoping to find out the true movements of the Japanese troops. "

    "But although the Japanese army responded to the challenge, they did not send cavalry. Instead, they sent tanks, more than 20 tanks. In addition to the Bean tanks and Type 95 light tanks seen on the battlefield in Guanhai, there are two other tanks that I don't have  I have seen it. One is a light tank equipped with a large-caliber machine gun, and the other is equipped with an artillery with a caliber of at least fifty millimeters. "

    "I saw the Japanese army dispatching tanks, and I knew that our cavalry's sabers alone could not cut these things down. We did not have infantry's 37mm rapid-fire cannons. If we continued to fight hard, we would be the unlucky ones. So, in  I immediately chose to retreat after I discovered that the Japanese troops had dispatched tanks.¡±

    "Also, the provocation of the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou against us was only called a counterattack once. The rest is that no matter how we harassed, we only used artillery fire, especially the artillery fire from the warships on the river."  The cavalry, including the one and only tank, never came out again."

    Hearing that the Japanese army on the front line of Lianjiangkou actually had tanks, and there were more than 20 tanks, Yang Zhen couldn't help but frown, and he was even more grateful that the so-called decisive gas he had prepared for the Japanese army arrived.  Except for those veterans who were captured in the Guan Civil War and there are not many veterans left in the army, most of the cadres and soldiers have never seen what a tank looks like.

    Although in daily training, I built a tank model using wood and even cement.  But really??The first time I saw this kind of guy who was almost invulnerable, even if each regiment was equipped with a Japanese-style 37 rapid-fire cannon that could penetrate most Japanese tanks, who could guarantee that the troops would see these for the first time?  The tank troops are not in chaos?

    After a moment of silence, Yang Zhen raised his head and said to Yu Wenze, who was looking at him: "Your mission here can be terminated. You immediately lead your cavalry battalion eastward to the mouth of the Huanhe River and the Tiandupao line, and cooperate with the three  The brigade will cross the Songhua River. As for the tasks after crossing the river, Brigadier Du Kaishan will tell you there."

    Hearing that Yang Zhen actually wanted to transfer him, Yu Wenze did not dare to say it openly, but he whispered in private: "There are no Japanese cavalry in the third brigade, why transfer us there? The Japanese 2nd and 4th divisions  The cavalry of the regiment are all on the front line of Lianjiangkou. Isn¡¯t it true that we are overqualified to fight the Japanese infantry?¡±

    Regarding Yu Wenze¡¯s muttering of dissatisfaction, Yang Zhen did not get angry or pay attention to him.  Seeing that the commander was no longer paying attention to Yu Wenze, Qu Xiangdong next to him pulled Yu Wenze's sleeve and whispered: "Stop talking and obey the order. You kid still dares to bargain with the commander, and you are not afraid of putting the commander at risk."  We're in a hurry, send us back to the rear."

    Although they have only been together for a short time, Qu Xiangdong clearly understands the character of his somewhat hot-tempered partner.  Yu Wenze didn't dare to argue anymore with just one word of being transferred to the rear.  If he was transferred to the third brigade, he would still be able to fight some battles. If he was transferred to the rear, he would really go back empty-handed this time.  That would be really embarrassing.

    After Yu Wenze, who was silent, was pulled away by Qu Xiangdong, Yang Zhen turned to Li Mingrui, who arrived at some time and said, "Have you figured out the situation of the Japanese troops on the front line at Lianjiangkou?"

    Although the two people did not say clearly what the situation was, they knew each other well.  Although the several staff officers around him didn't know what Yang Zhen was asking about, the situation from the personal action of Battalion Commander Li of the Labor Reconnaissance Battalion must not be simple tactical intelligence.  Several staff officers who had been following Yang Zhen for a long time and were familiar with confidentiality rules looked at each other and consciously walked away.

    Seeing several staff officers walking away, Li Mingrui still did not speak loudly, but reported in a low voice: "Commander, according to the confessions of several Japanese prisoners of war we captured in Jiangbei in the past two days, because the Japanese army this time  There was no preparation for a gas war, so the Japanese troops on the entire Lianjiangkou front line did not carry any gas masks.¡±

    "As for why the Japanese army gave up their usual poison gas warfare method, it was because they knew through interrogating our prisoners of war that our army had a full set of Japanese gas masks, and their poison gas warfare was simply ineffective against our army. That's why they gave up using poison gas.  as a means to win.¡±

    "As for those tanks, Battalion Commander Yuwen did not report wrongly. These new tanks were just transferred yesterday to replace the main force of the 4th Division Cavalry Regiment that was transferred three months ago. The Japanese army adjusted at the beginning of this year  The structure of the divisions gradually began to replace the cavalry regiments of each division with tanks and armored vehicles.

    "However, due to the insufficient number of tanks produced, the main production has to supplement the 1st Tank Division, which lost a lot of money in the Battle of Nomonhan. Therefore, it can only replace half of the cavalry regiment. The cavalry regiments of each division  The team still maintains a certain number of cavalry, but the remaining cavalry has been reduced from the previous regiment to a large group."

    "Although the Fourth Division is notorious among the Japanese army, because it has a strong backing and ranks high among the Japanese army, it became the first batch of troops to be adjusted. This treatment was even given to the second batch of troops who fought with us before.  There are no divisions yet. In the entire Kwantung Army, only the first division stationed in Sun Wu and the fourth division have completed the change."

    "Commander, among the Japanese prisoners of war we captured this time, there was a Japanese deputy captain who crossed the river privately and returned to Jiamusi. There was also a communications and liaison staff officer sent by the Japanese army back to Jiangbei. We also eavesdropped on the Japanese army's wired communications. I can  This information is guaranteed to be absolutely true.¡±
