Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Japanese army who ridiculed Yang Zhen's troops for far exceeding the actual number of equipment and being too large and empty did not know that just as the fifth division was setting out one after another, Yang Zhen's artillery units had been concentrated on the front line of Qunce Mountain in the western area of ????Tangyuan.  They are collecting equipment together. Within two days, these artillerymen who were still unarmed before have been fully armed.  ¡¾.Com text¡¿

    Yang Zhen's plan was profoundly exaggerated by the People's Liberation Army's artillery doctrine in later generations. The artillery force directly under the military region headquarters established two units, each equipped with 24 155 legal m 1917 heavy howitzers obtained from Jiangbei.  Artillery regiment, a Japanese-style artillery regiment equipped with twelve Japanese-style Taisho 14th-year-old 150 howitzers and twelve Japanese-style 96-type 150 howitzers, and one directly equipped with two Japanese-style 150 cannons  , six Type 92 105 cannon battalions.

    In addition, Yang Zhen also used the 68 Polish imitation 105 field guns transferred from Jiangbei and the captured Japanese heavy mountain artillery to form two field artillery regiments and one heavy mountain artillery regiment. In addition to these barrel artillery,  A rocket artillery regiment was also formed using the newly produced 122 rocket launchers.

    Not counting the artillery directly under the headquarters, Yang Zhen also organized a 107 rocket artillery regiment for each column, and strengthened the two 105 field artillery regiments to two columns, and each had a 24-gun  The 100mm howitzer regiment was organized into columns and directly under the artillery, so that each column was directly under the control of artillery of more than 100mm. Not counting the 36 107 rocket launchers, the number of barrel artillery alone reached 48.

    Each of the seemingly six but actually nine field brigades used the Japanese mountain field artillery captured at the Lianjiangkou line, the Japanese mountain field artillery originally equipped by the army, and the twelve-style mountain field artillery proposed by Ma Chunsheng in the secret warehouse.  French 75mm mountain guns and Czech Skoda mountain guns and Schneider field guns transferred from Jiangbei were organized into the brigade artillery.

    The three brigades in the first column are all equipped with Polish-made French Schneider mountain guns and Polish imitation Russian 75 field guns. Each brigade in the second column is equipped with Czech mountain guns and Polish-made French field guns.  The independent brigades are all Japanese-style mountain field artillery. In addition to the 75mm mountain field artillery, each brigade is also equipped with an artillery regiment composed of eight 100mm howitzers.

    Among the four military divisions, in addition to each military division being equipped with a Japanese-made 150-heavy mortar battalion, each military division is also equipped with an infantry artillery company and a Japanese-style 37 rapid-fire artillery company.

    Except for the first division, which has only one mountain artillery battalion, the second and third divisions, which directly confront the Japanese army, are each equipped with two Polish imitation French Schneider 65mm mountain artillery battalions, and the fourth division is equipped with 75mm Japanese mountain artillery battalions.  A battalion and a battery of one hundred millimeter howitzers.

    In fact, they are said to be local armed forces, but their equipment is not bad. The total number of local armed artillery is 68 mountain guns, 12 field guns, 4 100mm howitzers, and 72 150-weight mortars.  Gates, thirty-six Type 92 infantry guns, and thirty-six Japanese Type 37 rapid-fire guns.

    Not counting the sixteen 155 howitzers used as reserves, the 112 100mm howitzers, and the 140 75mm Schneider 70s transferred from Poland from Jiangbei or imitated by themselves.  In addition to the five-mm field guns, forty-eight French latest 105 mountain guns, ninety-six Czech Skoda 75-mm mountain guns, and sixty Bofors anti-tank guns.

    The entire army does not count local troops. Only two field columns and nine field brigade artillery units are equipped with 48 155 howitzers, 24 150 howitzers, 120 100 mm howitzers, and 100 howitzers.  The total number of 5-mm heavy mountain field guns reached seventy-two, and the number of 75-mm mountain field guns reached 216.

    The regiment-level artillery is equipped with a 70mm infantry artillery battery, a 120mm mortar battery, twelve 37 Bofors combat artillery or Japanese 37 rapid-fire cannons, self-made rock or  It is the imported Deshka anti-aircraft machine gun, or twelve French 13mm anti-aircraft machine guns.

    Each battalion is equipped with six 81mm Polish imitation French mortars or 90mm Japanese mortars. Currently, each battalion has issued eighteen individual anti-tank rocket launchers. In fact, Yang Zhen  In addition to the fact that the headquarters currently does not have aircraft and tanks, its only artillery firepower and light weapons firepower have exceeded the Japanese army.

    The most important thing is that after learning the actual strength and equipment of the Japanese army expected to go north this time, Jiangbei will still keep in their hands all the captured Polish foreign equipment that they originally planned to use because they were much better made than the Polish imitations.  The French weapons purchased were all urgently transferred to Yang Zhen's headquarters at once.

    This batch of weapons mainly consists of artillery and ammunition, including 600,000 rounds of 75mm mountain artillery shells, 220,000 rounds of 100mm howitzer shells, and 100,000 rounds of 155mm howitzer shells, as well as mortar shells of various calibers.  Not much, 120 plus 150mm mortar shells total less than 100,000 rounds.

     In addition to ammunition, this batch of equipment also includes M1917-type 155 cannons, twelve M1917-type howitzers, nine 1916-type 120 howitzers, and 200  Sixty 120 and 150 mortars, and 460 81mm mortars.

    As well as forty-four m1928 type 75mm mountain guns, 110 75mm field guns, 24 105mm heavy mountain guns, 180 105mm  Schneider field guns, and some German equipment from the three Baltic countries.

    In addition, there are 2,500 French M1922 8mm light machine guns, 1,000 Hotchkiss 1931 heavy machine guns, 120 13mm anti-aircraft machine guns, and 200  25mm anti-tank guns, 78 37 anti-tank guns and 60 anti-aircraft guns, 10,000 Leber 1916 rifles and a large number of 8mm ammunition and 79 bullets.

    Except for a small amount of French equipment captured in the three Baltic countries, most of the French equipment in this batch of equipment was imported from France urgently before the German invasion of Poland. The Polish government, which had already felt the strong smell of war, used gold reserves in Paris as collateral.  Army equipment.

    As a result, after France had withdrawn the weapons from its inventory, the war had already broken out before they had just arrived in coastal Poland and had not had time to unload the weapons. A fleet of eight cargo ships transporting this batch of equipment could not return due to the German blockade and had to find another place. The result was unexpected.  It was directly detained by the Soviet Baltic Fleet on its way to Lithuania.

    This batch of weapons was originally intended for the Soviet army¡¯s own use. Later, at the repeated request of General Abanaschenko and approved by Stalin, People¡¯s Commissar of Defense Timoshenko agreed to transfer all of them to the Anti-Alliance Forces in the form of loans.

    In fact, the French did no better on this matter than they did when they implemented the Franco-Polish Treaty. Except for a small number of 75mm mountain guns and 25mm anti-tank guns, all this equipment  They are second-hand, and the light weapons were eliminated after the French army began to change their equipment.

    Poland's most urgently needed tanks were only thirty H35s and twenty-five R35s, and not one fighter jet was provided. On the contrary, the helmets that Poland did not urgently needed were provided with 200,000 helmets at one time, all of which were from France.  Post-World War I inventories.

    This batch of equipment could never be transported to other places. The French brutally killed the Poles and took away 21 tons of gold that Poland had stored in Paris. It was a typical robbery, but it was the British who were generous.  The ship provided forty of the latest Vicker tanks and seventy Cardenloyd ultralight tanks.

    However, whether the French are honest or not, this has nothing to do with Yang Zhen, but this batch of equipment, which is mainly artillery and machine guns, is a huge advantage to them, especially the total number of tanks from Britain and France to 165.  It greatly supplemented the armored brigade of which most of the equipment was not considered tanks, even though the seventy Cadenloyds could not be called tanks at all.

    Although this equipment arrived too late, a large part of it was delivered during the battle and did not play a big role. However, it was relying on this batch of equipment and the original inventory that allowed Yang Zhen to survive the Soviet-German War.  After the outbreak, all outsourcing channels were cut off, and it was the most difficult four years before new US aid arrived.

    These were unknown to the Japanese army who were still laughing at their opponent's artillery battalion with only four mountain guns. What they didn't know even more was that these artillery units were already in full swing after being replenished and conducting secret test firings in the western mountains of Tangyuan.  Xiaosu traveled south during the night journey to return to Jian. It was obvious that Yang Zhen's deception method successfully deceived the Kwantung Army's intelligence department.

    What's more, what Umezu Yoshijiro, who urged the Eighth Division to speed up the defense, and the new commander of the Fifth Army, Lieutenant General Hata Juichi, who was in charge of commanding the campaign, didn't know was that just as the Fifth Division arrived in Dalian,  On the night when boarding officially began, the opponent's thousands of artillery pieces, large and small, which had been hiding their strength, fired artillery fire and were about to hit the heads of the Japanese divisions at the front.

    Although after the 24th, the Kwantung Army Headquarters and the Fifth Army Headquarters successively received information that the frontline opponents had strengthened their troop deployment and carried out large-scale mobilization, neither Umezu Yoshijiro nor Namada Juichi paid attention to it.  In their opinion, this was the opponent's preparation for defense.

    Because anyone with some military knowledge knows that it is impossible for the other party to notice the slightest bit of mobilization of troops when one has mobilized such a large number of troops. No matter how well the confidentiality work is done, such a large deployment of troops cannot be done at all.  Hide it from anyone.

    The Kwantung Army believed that the opponent was mobilizing troops at this time and should be preparing for a defensive war. The results of the reconnaissance of the front-line troops and the aviation reconnaissance also showed this. The opponent was rushing to build fortifications and was obviously not preparing for an attack.  At this time, the Kwantung Army still stubbornly did not believe that the opponent, despite its obvious strength, had the ability to actively launch an attack on itself.

      After studying the tactics used by Yang Zhen¡¯s headquarters in previous battles and analyzing and judging various intelligence, the Kwantung Army Staff Department believed that Yang Zhen¡¯s headquarters lacked offensive power and was better at field combat and mobile ambush. In this battle, Yang Zhen¡¯s headquarters  They will copy the pattern of last autumn's battle, but will not take the lead in attacking because they lack tanks and artillery and do not have the strength.

    The confusing measures taken by Yang Zhen successfully confused the Kwantung Army's intelligence department and combat department. The Kwantung Army, which was confused and thus misjudged the true strength of Yang Zhen's unit, fell into a comprehensive situation at the beginning of the battle.  A passive situation, and this passivity was not reversed until the end of the battle. The final outcome was a total loss.

    After this so-called Spring and Summer Campaign, the defeated Kwantung Army not only lost Dongning, Hulin, Mishan and other important strongholds in the war against the Soviet Union, but also lost the entire Binjiang Province and most of Longjiang.  Province, Harbin, Mudanjiang, Qiqihar and other important cities were all lost, and the defense line confronting Yang Zhen retreated to the west of Nenjiang River, Wuchang, Shuangcheng, and Hunchun.
