Chapter 117 Transfer Equipment

Wang Baoguo, deputy commander of the Third Brigade, saw that the Japanese army had stopped attacking and began to retreat, and called Xu Guoren and Huang Xiansheng to ask for pursuit. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It just so happened that a reconnaissance fighter sent by Gao Zhihang found that the Japanese follow-up troops were arriving one after another, so Huang Xiansheng ordered Wang Baoguo not to pursue and continue to take a defensive position.

"Commander, the devil doesn't attack, probably because there is no response from the northern front, and he is waiting for reinforcements! We can't be idle, it's time to mobilize the people to evacuate! Xu Guoren said to Huang Xian.

At this time, Chen Zhiyuan suddenly walked out of the confidential room and said to Huang Xiansheng, Xu Guoren and others: "I just got the news that the 2nd Division of the Kwantung Army and other units have issued an order to slaughter the city after breaking through Shenyang. Probably because the news that we killed the Japanese in Shenyang City leaked! ”

Xu Guoren said: "Even if we don't kill those Japanese, the devils have suffered such a big loss in the battle of Shenyang, and after the city is broken, they will definitely vent their anger on the people!" ”

Huang Xiansheng nodded in agreement. Then he said: "Then we should organize the evacuation of the people!" ”

"The people are better, how to transport so much equipment from the production workshops and factories of the arsenal is a big problem?" Chen Zhiyuan was worried, looked at Xu Guoren and the others and said.

Xu Guoren took out a cigarette and handed it to Huang Xiansheng and Yang Wentao, who were smoking, and before he could light it, Yang Wentao lit the match very interestingly and handed it to Xu Guoren's mouth.

Xu Guoren glanced at him, thanked him, lit the cigarette in his mouth, took two puffs, spit out a large puff of smoke, and said to Chen Zhiyuan with a slight smile: "Old Chen, this is not difficult to do, spread the news that the Japanese are going to slaughter the city, the people will definitely flee desperately, we will organize them, promise to provide them with rations and protection, and cover their retreat to Jiangcheng and other places."

But, in return, they will help carry machinery and equipment and other military supplies! Of course, we still load and transport important equipment, and there are arsenals and military warehouses in Shenyang City, don't they all have a lot of cars, and mule and horse carts should be able to raise a batch, right? ”

Huang Xiansheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded: "This is not a bad way." ”

"Can the people agree?" Yang Wentao was a little worried.

"Deputy Chief of Staff Yang, you underestimate the people's desire to survive too much! What is the most important thing in fleeing? Of course it's eaten! As long as there is food, let alone let the people help with things, even if they are allowed to fight as soldiers, this is troubled times! Xu Guoren smoked a cigarette and looked like a person who had come over.

"That's right." Yang Wentao nodded and asked again: "Then how many people should we send to evacuate the people and the arsenal?" ”

Xu Guoren did not rush to express his position, but asked Huang Xiansheng and Chen Zhiyuan: "How many garrisons are there in Jiangcheng now?" ”

Huang Xiansheng thought for a while and replied: "Most of the garrisons in Jilin are gathered in Changchun and other places, and Jiangcheng only has the regular army left over from the previous Lao Shuai period, and the adapted mountain and forest garrison has three battalions, one company of cavalry and one company of artillery, about more than 2,000 people!" ”

"Judging from the map, if our final destination is to withdraw to Jiangcheng, then we will pass through the following counties, namely Fushun, Qingyuan, and Meihekou, fortunately, the Japanese army north of Shenyang has been cleared by us, and these places have become our rear. As long as Shenyang can hold on, the people and the arsenal can be evacuated smoothly! Huang Xian said.

"This mountain and forest garrison is not treason to the enemy, right?" Xu Guoren asked.

"It shouldn't be yet, after all, the troops of Li Du, the guard of Yilan Town, have united with the patriotic armed forces of Jilin to go to conquer Xiqia, a traitor! Even if they have the heart to follow Xiqia to commit treason, they don't have the guts until the battle of Changchun is decided! Huang Xian said.

"That's good, first organize manpower to transport the arsenal and military supplies to the mouth of the Meihe River, and send a cavalry regiment to accompany you to protect it! If Shenyang really can't hold it, then retreat to Jiangcheng! Xu Guoren said: "The cavalry regiment is commanded by Zhang Dongsheng and Zhang Baoguo and others!" ”

Huang Xiansheng, Yang Wentao and others all agreed with Xu Guoren's suggestions and plans, so they all nodded in agreement.

Chen Zhiyuan, who was good at this aspect, was responsible for mobilizing the workers of the arsenal and the people of Shenyang City, and Yang Wentao, deputy chief of staff, was in charge of assisting.

Three days later, the arsenal had almost been demolished, although some workers were reluctant, but at the moment of the war, the national disaster was at hand, and it was not their turn to say no.

Under the orders of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, they were all mobilized and began to dismantle the Shenyang Arsenal.

Chen Zhiyuan gave full play to the mobilization ability of the Communists and mobilized more than 30,000 people to come to the arsenal to help.

The National Salvation Army will provide them and their families with accompanying protection, food rations, and a guarantee of rations to ensure their evacuation to a safe place.

The Anti-Japanese Salvation Army wiped out tens of thousands of Japanese in Shenyang, and the people of Shenyang were obvious to all, so after learning that the Japanese army was going to wash Shenyang City in blood, and the chickens and dogs were not left, almost most of the people had the idea of leaving here.

Although it is reluctant to leave home, it is better than losing your life.

Yang Wentao took the guard battalion and collected and requisitioned dozens of cars and hundreds of ox carts, mule and horse carts in the city!

The First Brigade of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army, the Cavalry Brigade, and the guard barracks, together with more than 30,000 people, as well as thousands of workers from the arsenal, began to load the city's military warehouses, various workshops of various sizes in the arsenal, factory equipment, and materials.

More than 100,000 people were also mobilized, each helping to carry a machine part, so that they could be protected all the way, and when it was time to eat, they could take the parts to pay back.

In this way, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army gained a strong enough transportation capacity, and in just one day, two-thirds of the military supplies and more than half of the arsenal equipment were taken out of Shenyang.

As for rations, the food hoarded in the Shenyang area is enough for these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians to eat for a year, so there is no need to worry about it at all.

Of course, in order to prevent riots, all the underground party members in Shenyang were mobilized to assist the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in maintaining order.

The 30,000 people have basically become an auxiliary force to maintain order.

Looking at the military supplies that were quickly emptied, Xu Guoren couldn't help but sigh that the strength of the people is really great, and it is really not an empty word that there are many people who are easy to do.

Seeing that there were more and more people in the city, Xu Guoren ordered Guo Xiaoliu to join the escort team with the main force of the cavalry brigade in case of accidents.

Wait until they are escorted to the mouth of the Meihe River, and then come back.

At this time, the 20th Division of the Japanese Army finally arrived in Liaoyang at full speed. At the same time, at the repeated request of Honjo Shigeru, the base camp replenished him with a group of fighters and pilots.

After being replenished, Honjo immediately ordered them to enter the Liaoyang airfield, ready to cooperate with the ground forces to launch an attack and seize Shenyang! (To be continued.) )
