Chapter 104: Breaking the Siege of Fengtian (1)

The remnants of the 7th Independent Brigade benefited from the timely arrival of the Independent Division led by Xu Guoren and easily escaped the pursuit of the Japanese army. However, when he withdrew to the vicinity www.biquge.info of Shenyang, he found that the front had been blocked by the Japanese army, and there was an order not to resist, so Zhao Zhenfan had no choice but to quickly evacuate to the north of Shenyang with his troops.

This order of non-resistance was like a mantra on the heads of the officers and men of the Seventh Independent Brigade, so that even if they saw that the Japanese army was besieging Shenyang City, the base camp of the Northeast Army, they did not dare to go up and engage the Japanese army.

Everyone has a herd mentality, with this order not to resist, and with the commanders taking the lead, even if the officers and soldiers below are no longer angry, they can only follow the crowd.

After all, from the perspective of an ordinary soldier's heart, the commander can do whatever he wants, and how dare he disobey?

Even some bloody people did not dare to openly disobey orders and take risks alone.

In Shenyang, General Huang Xiansheng, then the chief of the Liaoning Provincial Police and the director of the Shenyang Public Security Bureau, was leading his men to resist the Japanese attack.

Rong Jin, chief of staff of the Northeast Army, and a number of dignitaries from the provincial government were busy packing up the fine, gold and silver property, and fled in a hurry.

At this time, Rong Jin had a guard under the Northeast Army Frontier Commander's Office, which belonged to Zhang Xueliang's current Guard Brigade, which had about 300 people, equivalent to a battalion-level combat unit.

The captain's surname is Yang, his full name is Yang Wentao, he graduated from the Northeast Lecture Hall two years ago, and had served in Zhang Xueliang's Guards Brigade before.

This Yang Wentao has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, can read and break words, and is an officer with both civil and military skills, and it is precisely because of this that he was selected to enter the Northeast Lecture and Martial Arts Hall for further study two years ago.

Belonging to the Shaozhuang faction in the Northeast Army, the Japanese army bombarded Shenyang City at this moment and attacked in a big way.

Yang Wentao was very angry, when Rong Jin walked out of the compound of the governor's office with the adjutant, and planned to flee by car overnight, he stepped forward and asked: "Participate, this Shenyang City is the base camp of our Northeast Army, and the young marshal and the old marshal have all their life savings here, how can we sit back and watch the Japanese army attack the city and be indifferent?" I beg to be allowed to join my guards! ”

Rong Jin glared at him coldly and said: "What are you messing about, the young marshal has an order, you must not resist, so as not to expand the situation and affect the overall situation, you and I are both soldiers, and we should obey the order!" Grab your guards and protect me and the provincial dignitaries from withdrawing! ”

"However, let me sit back and watch Shenyang fall, and my hometown father and elder fall into the hands of the Japanese invaders! I can't do it! Yang Wentao argued with a sad and indignant face.

"Captain Yang, do you want to disobey military orders?" Rong Jin's face was murderous.

Yang Wentao also put his heart sideways: "The young marshal has the grace of cultivation for Yang, of course I don't dare to disobey his order!" However, I can't sit back and watch Shenyang be occupied by little devils! This is related to the honor of our Northeast Army, for the sake of the young marshal and the foundation of our Northeast Army, Yang is willing to stay and fight to the death with General Huang Xiansheng to the end, and swear to live and die with Shenyang! ”

"We are all willing to live and die with Shenyang! Defend your hometown to the death! A group of enthusiastic young guards came behind Yang Wentao with guns in their hands, echoing in unison.

They are all hot-blooded soldiers with patriotic aspirations, Yang Wentao is known for his reputation on weekdays, and no one wants to run away like this, and sit back and watch the city of Shenyang, which has lived for a long time, fall into the hands of the Japanese army, so at the critical moment, they have come forward to support Yang Wentao.

The most important thing is that many of them are local people in Shenyang and the surrounding areas, and there are their parents, parents, wives and children in this city, who wants to abandon their relatives and run away alone?

Although Rong Jin moved to kill, but seeing that the guards were all supporting Yang Wentao, he had to let go of his right hand that had already touched the pistol, and sighed helplessly: "Soldiers, why do I want to abandon my hometown fathers?" However, there is a life on the peak, and I have to obey as a soldier! ”

"Then we shouldn't be this soldier!" Yang Wentao pulled off the military hat on his head, fell to the ground angrily, and said indignantly: "The Japanese devil thief is not dead, if he wants to capture Shenyang, Lao Tzu is dead!" And never let them get their wish! In order not to affect the young marshal and the Northeast Army, I officially quit the Northeast Army today! ”

"We will also withdraw from the Northeast Army!" The surrounding guards followed suit.

Seeing that everyone was angry, Rong Jin had to nod: "Then you can do it yourself!" With that, he got into the car.

After looking at Rong Jin and his entourage leaving, Yang Wentao rolled up his sleeves, took out his gun, and shouted in a deep voice: "Brothers, go, follow me to the city wall to fight devils!" ”

"Kill the devil! Protect your hometown! Hundreds of guards responded in response, and quickly followed him in the direction of the south of the city, where the fierce fighting was fierce.

With the reinforcement of this guard, the city defense force in Huang Xiansheng's hands was greatly enhanced.

However, Huang Xiansheng was also in a dilemma at this time, because he also received an order from the young marshal not to resist.

However, he was unwilling to give up Shenyang and sat back and watched Fengtian fall into the hands of the enemy.

"Director, the Seventh Brigade and Rong Jin, they have all withdrawn! Shenyang is the only one left with us, let's either withdraw! A subordinate worriedly persuaded: "The young marshal has ordered that no resistance is allowed, if we continue to fight now, we will not only disobey the order, but also fall into the encirclement of the Japanese army!" ”

"Why don't I know any of this? However, regardless of the fact that Mukden is the base camp of our Northeast Army, and we have hoarded countless guns and ammunition, let's just say that the hundreds of thousands of hometown fathers and elders in Shenyang City, Pao Ze sisters, as soldiers, how can we, as soldiers, easily abandon the city defense and put them under the iron hooves of the Japanese? Huang Xiansheng said with a sad and indignant face: "It's easy to retreat, but if you withdraw today, you and I will become sinners for eternity in the future, and we will be condemned by conscience for a lifetime!" ”

The subordinates wanted to persuade again, but Huang Xiansheng waved his hand and refused: "Don't say it, let me abandon my hometown father in Shenyang City and give up Fengtian to the Japanese, I can't do it!" Otherwise, Huang is dead, and he has no shame to see the old handsome! ”

"But Director, with just a few thousand of us police and gendarmes, I'm afraid we won't last long!" Subordinate Dao.

"Needless to say, it's a big deal to live and die with Shenyang!" Huang Xiansheng raised his hand to signal, immediately picked up the gun, and strode out.

South of Shenyang, at the railway station, the siege headquarters of the 2nd Infantry Wing of the 29th Division of the Japanese Army is located here.

Wing Commander Yukihiro Hirata of the 29th Infantry Wing and several combat staff officers gathered in front of the map to discuss the military situation.

"Sir, we have just received important information, Zhang Xueliang has ordered the Northeast Army garrisons in Shenyang and Beidaying not to exchange fire with the imperial army, and at present, the seventh independent brigade of the Central Army has been ordered to retreat, and the independent garrison of the imperial army should have succeeded!" A devil staff officer pointed to the map.

Yukihiro Hirata nodded, and said with a smile on his face: "Yo Xi, the Chinese army is really as cowardly as a mouse, and they don't even have the courage to fight with the imperial army, God really help me!" ”

"However, the defenders of China in the city, under the leadership of Huang Xiansheng, are still resisting!" The other devil staff officer said with a frown.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the independent 7th Brigade of Beidaying does not participate in the battle, then how can the group of military police and gendarmes under Huang Xiansheng be able to block the attack of our 2nd Division?" Yukihiro Hirata waved his hand very conceitedly: "Pass the order, all departments will attack with all their might, and strive to occupy Shenyang before dawn!" Ladies and gentlemen, once this battle is completed, we will all become heroes of the Yamato nation! Let's fight hard! ”

"Hay!" All the devil staff officers bowed their heads one after another.
