    Although the transportation capacity of this railway was not very high at the beginning due to some reasons such as excessive rush to schedule and some quality problems during the construction process, the locomotives could only haul no more than twelve unloaded cars in the first year of operation.  The actual transportation capacity of carriages is only equivalent to that of a small railway.

    Even a considerable part of the roadbed has various problems due to lack of careful survey. Most of the bridges were temporarily built as simple railway bridges using sleepers. It was not until 44 that they were completely renovated and all railway bridges were fully completed.  Previously, because the roadbed often broke down and required repairs, it was always in a semi-open state.

    However, it greatly reduced the pressure brought by the transportation of materials in Western Manchuria and the pressure on the Anti-Japanese Alliance. As the war situation developed, this railway that extended westwards intersected with the Pingsui Railway at Jining at the end of 1943 and became  The artery connecting the Anti-Japanese Alliance to the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region also played a considerable role in transferring drought victims who migrated from North China during the 1943 period.

    What Yoshimoto Teichi didn't even know was that at this time, under the guidance of Professor Huang Jiqing, the Northeast Bureau had completed the installation of oil derricks in Xingshugang and Zhaozhou Gaotaizi in Anda, and was seizing the time to strive for freezing.  Subsequent construction has been completed before.

    According to the scheduled plan, as long as nothing unexpected happens, in the spring of next year, drilling will begin after the completion of the special railway branch line, and the laying of the connection between the Lanxi and Anda junctions has begun. It is now being fully constructed, and the installation of equipment has begun between the refineries.  Oil pipeline.

    The large number of trucks provided by the Americans in 1942, as well as the large amount of high-quality gasoline provided by the Anti-Japanese Alliance in 1942 before the Anti-Japanese Alliance refinery was put into operation, also made the burden of road transportation within the range that the Anti-Japanese Alliance could bear.  It's just that these are not what Seiichi Yoshimoto, who thought he had no plan at all and believed that the heavy burden of road transportation would eventually crush the Anti-Japanese Alliance, can think of now.

    The resilience of the Chinese people is no less than that of the Japanese. As long as they are determined to do something well, they will not be any worse than the Japanese. It is just that the endless internal friction in the past few decades has consumed too many Chinese people.  Once China unites, puts its minds where it should be used, and makes up its mind to do anything, there will be nothing it cannot do.

    Of course, these things are all things that should be considered after the end of this counterattack. As for Yoshimoto Teiichi now, all counterattacks by his organization, at least in the Western Manchuria battlefield, must be stopped immediately, because the Western Manchuria battlefield has reached a certain stage.  The point where retreat is impossible.

    If the fight continues, unless the Kwantung Army can add two divisions to the Linxi battlefield in a short period of time and retake the Tongliao front line, Linxi's two divisions will repeat the fate of the 14th Division and the Second Division.  The same mistakes of the Thirteenth Division, but any of these two are difficult for the Kwantung Army to achieve at the moment.

    Instead of forcing the fight now, which may result in more divisions being brought in, it is better to stop immediately and take defense across the board. Although Yoshimoto Teiichi also believes that this approach is really embarrassing for the Kwantung Army, but  He insisted that this was the only method the Kwantung Army could take at present, unless General Umezu Yoshijiro could solve the first two problems in the shortest time.

    Compared to Yoshimoto Teiichi, who was somewhat wishful thinking, but considered the issues in great detail, both strategic and tactical issues, a considerable number of senior officers in the Kwantung Army, including his two deputies, had little regard for his  The judgment is very disapproving. Not only are there many people who advocate a desperate fight, but there are also quite a few.

    Although the current war situation has reached this point, I am extremely embarrassed, but I still agree that these actions are the Resistance Alliance's attempt to cover up the true situation that their strength has been exhausted and the offensive can no longer go on. I hope they can give it a try.  This group of people is mainly composed of the two deputy chiefs of staff of the Kwantung Army, Major General Ayabe Tachibana and Major General Qin Yanzaburo.

    In addition to these two deputy chiefs of staff, the other people who believe that the Kwantung Army should continue to fight include the first section chief Tamura Yoshitomi, the third section chief Muranaka Kajiro, and the fourth section chief Kuro  Kawafusuke and Section 5 Chief Junhisa Ikeda, which meant that those who insisted on continuing the fight included almost all the senior officers of the Kwantung Army Headquarters.

    These people believe that although the enemy situation in East Manchuria has undergone a series of changes, the whereabouts of the enemy troops withdrawn from the Korean battlefield are currently unknown, and although the enemy troops have mobilized a large number of military columns in several railway stations around Mudanjiang, they are currently  There is no definite evidence that this part of the enemy troops will be thrown into the Western Manchuria battlefield.

    As for the enemy forces that disappeared from the battlefield after completing the battle against the 51st Division and never showed up, the strength of the two divisions, even if they appeared on the battlefields of Linxi or Tongliao, may not be able to change the situation of the battle.  , as long as it can be delayed for a while on the Linxi battlefield, it will create a situation for the Kwantung Army to solve the Tongliao battlefield.If you have a certain number of fighters, there is still a way.

    Even if the Anti-Japanese Alliance is adding two divisions, if they want to swallow up these two divisions on the Linxi battlefield in a short period of time, it still depends on whether they have good teeth, not to mention the Kwantung Army's strongholds in Zhangwu and Xixi.  The Fifth Division is also deployed on the Fuxin front line, which can support the Linxi battlefield at any time. Even if it cannot support the Linxi battlefield, it can still contain the enemy troops on the Tongliao front line from being able to move westward.

    At the same time, the Eighteenth Division behind Tongliao and a division preparing to attack westward in Lishu are fully ready to engage in the counterattack against Tongliao at any time. Although the Kwantung Army's current strength is somewhat insufficient, it is far from sufficient.  To the point where it is completely unsustainable.

    The 10th Division, which has already arrived in Fengtian, can also be quickly transported to the Chifeng line by railway. Now that the battle has reached this result, the Kwantung Army has been disgraced. If it doesn't fight again, then where will the Kwantung Army's face be?  Where is the great military might of the Japanese Empire?

    In addition to the two factions with clear distinctions, the Kwantung Army's Chief Operations Staff, who had the most say, single-handedly formulated a series of comprehensive counterattack plans, which almost did not fall into the trap of Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun, the two top military officers of the Anti-Japanese Alliance.  Lieutenant Colonel Seitaro Takei, but he remained silent and did not express his position. Apart from him, the Kwantung Army Field Railway Commander Lieutenant General Yokoyama Shino who attended the meeting also said nothing.

    It's normal for Lieutenant General Yokoyama Jinxiong not to speak. He is the field railway commander in charge of all railway security and field maintenance within the Kwantung Army's jurisdiction. He can't get involved in combat matters, and Lieutenant General Yokoyama Zhenxiong himself is an army officer.  A rare alternative among them who never takes sides.

    Except for his own responsibilities, he never expresses his opinion on matters that are not under his control. To put it bluntly, he is the kind of person who puts safety first under any circumstances, so even though he is a lieutenant general  , but so far, he has been working in various technical positions, and has never held the important task of division commander or chief of staff of a certain army.

    At this combat meeting, facing the representatives from the base camp, he simply kept silent. He almost didn¡¯t say clearly, I¡¯m here to make soy sauce. Don¡¯t ask me for my opinion. Even if you ask me, I won¡¯t.  Any opinions, I am the commander of a field railway, with only a few railway regiments specializing in emergency railway repairs under my command. I am not the commander of the Kwantung Army with many well-equipped field divisions under my command. It is not my turn to express opinions on such matters.

    But the silence of Colonel Seitaro Takei surprised everyone. The entire plan was drafted and formulated by him. He is the one who has the most say on how to adjust the current situation after the battle.  However, at this time, he chose to remain silent and just watch others argue, which was quite surprising.

    But now among the generals who really control the fate of the Kwantung Army, no one cares about what a lieutenant colonel and chief staff officer is thinking. Although this lieutenant colonel has a very important position and is also the person who formulated the entire combat plan of the Kwantung Army,  The generals still believed that they were the ones who really decided the fate of the Kwantung Army.

    Except for these two who said nothing, the other silent person sitting in the main seat with a livid face was none other than Umezu Yoshijiro. The commander of the Kwantung Army looked at the red-faced officers arguing in the conference room and said nothing.  He didn't say it, but if you look carefully, the Kwantung Army commander, who has always been known for his strong will, has a trace of confusion in his eyes at the moment.

    As for Major General Onishi Takijiro, who was in charge of commanding the naval aviation forces participating in the war and attended the meeting, he looked at the army officers present. Although he did not speak, the look of gloating in his eyes was clearly revealed, but at this time  , no one is in the mood to argue with him, a naval general.

    It is not without reason that Major General Onishi Takijiro is so gloating about the misfortune. In this battle, the Kwantung Army ignored the opposition of the navy and insisted on mobilizing a large number of bombers to blow up the embankments along the Songhua River and use water instead of troops to cut off the retreat route of the Anti-Japanese Alliance. What was the result?  In this way, not to mention nothing was gained, the mobilized Army Aviation bombers suffered heavy losses in the desperate interception by the enemy aviation.

    What's even more tragic is that when these Army bombers, which had already suffered heavy losses during the Anti-Alliance air-ground interception, were returning home, I don't know when a few of them got mixed up. Perhaps they were the Army's Type 97 medium bombers that had been captured by the Anti-Alliance.  and Type 98 light bomber.

    These Army standard bombers, which were captured by the Anti-Japanese Alliance and were painted exactly the same as the Army's rising sun logo, took advantage of troubled waters before the dispatched fleet had a chance to count the battle losses. They followed the dispatched Army Aviation bomber fleet and returned to Hailong Airport.  The bomber group participating in the air attack landed and before returning to the cave, they launched a surprise attack on Hailong Airport.

    ??????????????????????????The bomber group that was the starting point of Hailong Airport was bombed to a mess when it landed. All the bomber groups that returned safely were lined up neatly and were hit by the dozens of bombers made by the army as if they were being hit on the ground.  One after another was destroyed.

    The bombers that survived the enemy interception were blown into a pile of garbage at the airport in front of the surrounding anti-aircraft artillery and several fighter jets protecting the airport. Coupled with the losses in the air battle, the Army Aviation Forces participated in the battle.  Losses amounted to almost two-thirds of the mobilized force.

    When these dozen bombers dive-bombed the airport, the anti-aircraft artillery on the ground and the few German fighter jets remaining in the sky for cover had no time to react. The commander of the ground anti-aircraft artillery at Hailong Airport was even more stunned.  He was so stupid that he thought those planes in the sky were his friendly forces, and he desperately tried to communicate with the sky.

    It wasn't until they lost all their bombs and flew away swaggeringly under the cover of the sudden appearance of the Anti-Japanese Alliance cover aircraft group, that they faced their own bomber group that had turned into a pile of wreckage, and then they were shocked to understand that those were simply the enemy.  At this time, it was too late to make any reaction. There was nothing left on the airport except a pile of rubble.
