Chapter 543: Zhennanpu Landing (3)

Both the wharf and the customs were occupied by the KPA, leaving only warehouses. However, the KPA encountered some trouble when attacking the warehouse.

Although Zhennanpu Port is not a large port in South Korea, but after all, it is a seaport, so the surface of the warehouse is not small, reaching more than 8,000 square meters, that is, a little larger than a football field, and divided into more than 20 warehouses of different sizes, and divided into 4 roads, the terrain is much more complex than the wharf and customs, and the Japanese and South Korean troops who retreated to the warehouse are also the most, more than 2,000 people, and the Japanese army alone has more than 400 people, relying on the warehouse to arrange the defense line.

Despite the fact that the KPA is in firepower, Actual combat experience is superior, as long as it is a part of the attack warehouse, it will be able to attack, but after all, the number of people is too small, to capture such a large area, to some powerless, fierce fighting for more than half an hour, the People's Army captured an area of about 3,000 square meters, killed more than 300 Japanese and South Korean soldiers, but the strength has been obviously insufficient, after all, the occupied area is to send soldiers to guard, and to hold the occupied area, the People's Army has used up almost half of the army, so the fierce battle to this time, two warehouses were recaptured by the Japanese and South Korean troops。

Fortunately, at this moment, the wharf and the customs each sent a company of troops to support, although the troops of these two companies were nothing on the ordinary battlefield, but at this time they solved a big problem, and the KPA took advantage of the situation to launch a fierce attack on the Japanese and South Korean troops. And the Japanese and South Korean armies were not the opponents of the People's Army, but the number of the People's Army was small, so they were able to avoid being strong, and now the People's Army came to reinforce, and naturally they were even more invincible, and the warehouses were occupied by the People's Army one by one, and the area controlled by them became less and less, and soon they were completely defeated, and some of the troops fled, and the rest all surrendered to the People's Army.

At this time, the People's Army, which had landed from the sea, also rushed to the port, and the two sides converged and completely controlled the port of Pu Nanpu, and it was not yet 7 o'clock in the morning. KPA quickly took control of key points around the port and expedited the disembarkation of troops and supplies. In this battle, the KPA killed a total of 1,657 Japanese and South Korean soldiers and captured 1,273 prisoners, while only 17 of its own soldiers were killed and 36 were wounded.

In fact, such a result was basically expected by Luo Yue, of course, the People's Army won so easily, and the casualties were so good, which Luo Yue did not expect, according to Luo Yue's expectations, the casualties of the People's Army should be between 200-300.

However, it was of course a good thing to easily win the landing battle, but this was only the first step to success, Luo Yue ordered to leave a reserve regiment at the landing site by the sea, arrange the position, and build a simple trestle bridge, and the rest of the army and supplies landed at Zhennanpu Port. In addition, Luo Yue was quite interested in Choi Haozhi, a South Korean who surrendered in the landing battle of Zhennanpu, although the goal of this landing battle was not to occupy the Korean Peninsula, but he could take this opportunity to lay out the layout on the Korean Peninsula and cultivate some leading party to prepare for the East China government to compete with Japan for the Korean Peninsula in the future.

In the afternoon, Luo Yue left the Sanya ship, boarded the Zhennanpu Port, and took the Zhennanpu Customs as the location of the headquarters.

Because the People's Army was busy landing and arranging, they didn't care about Cui Haozhi and others for the time being, so they were placed in a room in the customs, temporarily restricting their freedom, of course, they could still move freely in the customs, but they couldn't go out, but the customs didn't have much space. And some people brought them some tea and food.

Cui Haozhi was also a little uneasy in his heart, he didn't know what these Chinese soldiers would do with him, but he was polite in terms of attitude, after all, he could operate in the customs, not imprisonment, and he was given tea and food, not treating himself as a prisoner. And Cui Hao paid close attention to observing, only to see people coming in and out, moving things, cleaning rooms, setting up antennas, installing lights, etc., very busy, but orderly and orderly.

Seeing that it was almost dusk, two soldiers came over at this time and called Cui Haozhi, saying that the commander of the People's Army wanted to see him.

When I came to the main room of the customs, there were two soldiers standing at the door, and a soldier who led Cui Hao straight to come said loudly: "Report to the commander, Cui Hao is straight here." ”

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Come in." ”

The two soldiers took Cui Haozhi into the room, Cui Haozhi saw a young man in military uniform sitting behind a desk, it seemed that he was about 30 years old, Cui Haozhi also had some doubts in his heart, this person is too young, he doesn't look as old as himself, is it difficult to be the commander of this army? For a while, I don't know what to do, South Korea is actually still a feudal dynasty, so the etiquette is still kneeling, but Cui Haozhi has been a soldier for more than a month, and the establishment of the Korean army is completely organized in the form of a modern army, and the military salute is also a military salute.

If Luo Yue is now wearing a flower feather, a robe and a horse coat, and looks like a minister of the Celestial Empire, Cui Hao will not have any entanglement, and will kneel directly, but Luo Yue is wearing a modern military dress with a placket close to the military limbs, a twisted button in the middle row, a cross-body belt, and high leather shoes.

Luo Yuezhi didn't care, and said, "Are you Cui Haozhi?"

Cui Haozhi came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the villain is Cui Haozhi, see... I've seen adults. Saying that, he touched the ground with one leg and made a thousand salutes.

The guards who led Cui Haozhi in couldn't help laughing, because Cui Haozhi was also wearing a modern military uniform, but he was doing a thousand salutes, which looked a little nondescript. Luo Yue turned his head and glared at the guard, and the guard came to understand, hurriedly came over and pulled Cui Hao up, and said, "Get up, we don't kneel here, call the commander, Commander Luo, don't be an adult, understand." ”

Cui Haozhi was also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "The villain understands, the villain understands, Luo... Commander Luo. But in my heart, I was a little surprised, is this really an army from the Chinese state? How is it completely different from what I know?

Luo Yue smiled, pointed to the chair in front of the desk, and said, "Sit down!"

Cui Hao listened directly, and hurriedly sat down and said, "Thank you, thank you." However, he didn't dare to sit steadily, only half of his buttocks, facing Luo Yue sideways.

Luo Yue didn't correct his sitting posture either, and said, "Cui Haozhi, you speak Chinese well." ”

Cui Haozhi turned his head to Luo Yue and owed a debt: "Commander Luo has won the award, and the villain can speak Chinese since he was a child." ”

Luo Yue said: "How is your family background?" ”

Cui Hao didn't dare to hide it, and told his life experience, it turned out that Cui Hao was a native of Pyongyang, and he had lived here for several generations, and some people in the family had been officials for generations, but the official position was not high, but he still had some prestige in the area around Pyongyang.

Luo Yue also nodded after hearing this, Cui Hao directly belongs to the more traditional gentry in South Korea, and he still has some role for the East China government. First, he was literate, and it was very good for South Korea to be literate in this era; second, after all, he was born as a gentry and had a certain understanding of the situation in South Korea and the government of the DPRK; in addition, he was a native of Pyongyang, so he would be of certain help to his next attack on Pyongyang. Therefore, he also praised Cui Haozhi a few words, and briefly introduced the situation of the East China government to him.

Regarding the situation of the East China government, Cui Haozhi also listened to it somewhat, but it was all a scaly claw, and the truth was mixed, so after listening to Luo Yue's introduction, he was also half-convinced, and he didn't believe that the People's Army would be so powerful and able to defeat the Japanese and Russian troops, but now that the People's Army has indeed occupied Zhennanpu, maybe it is a little true.

Later, Luo Yue told Cui Haozhi that the next step of the People's Army was to attack Pyongyang, hoping to learn from Cui Haozhi about the situation in Pyongyang. Cui Hao listened directly, and couldn't help but perk up, because his wife and children are in Pyongyang, if the People's Army can capture Pyongyang, then he can bring his wife and children out, and he will simply follow the People's Army in the future. Therefore, Choi Haozhi also told Luo Yue all the situation in Pyongyang to the best of his knowledge.

Cui Haozhi grew up in Pyongyang since he was a child, and he knows the terrain and roads around Pyongyang well, and corrects and supplements the map used by the People's Army, and he has been a soldier for another month, and he also has a certain understanding of the deployment of the Japanese and South Korean troops in Pyongyang, Pyongyang is the logistics center of the Japanese army on the Korean Peninsula, and it has a large amount of food, materials, medicinal materials, etc., but there are not many garrison troops, the South Korean army has 1 regiment, the Japanese army has 2 battalions, and there are about 7 or 80,000 Japanese logistics personnel.

Now that the Japanese army has taken full control of the Korean Peninsula, and Pyongyang has no forces worthy of the Japanese army's scruples, there is naturally no need to leave too many troops in Pyongyang, two Japanese battalions and one Korean regiment are completely sufficient, and if something happens, there are tens of thousands of Japanese logistics personnel, which can fully cope with it, but the Japanese army did not expect the People's Army to land in Zhennampo.

After listening to Cui Haozhi's introduction, Luo Yue was also very happy, although Cui Haozhi said that these situations could not be confirmed, but Luo Yue thought that it was basically credible, so it seems that it is not difficult for the People's Army to capture Pyongyang, and Cui Haozhi is obviously of great use, because after the People's Army occupies Pyongyang, it will have to rule for a period of time, and with Cui Haozhi's help, it will naturally be much easier.

So Luo Yue ordered to appoint Choi Haozhi as an interpreter, and asked him to organize the Korean soldiers who surrendered together, and prepare for the People's Army to enter the city to pacify the people and maintain order after the People's Army captured Pyongyang.
