Chapter 177 The Three Wolves of Dongfeng in the Northeast Anti-Japanese Momentum Stage

Lin Junxiong thought about it again and again, and felt that the top priority was to build the shelves of the troops, and after running in for a period of time, he would expand around with Lotus Mountain as the center.

He summoned Du Sheng, Xie Qin, Tang Jijun, Fang Yun, etc. together to discuss, after everyone expressed their opinions, Lin Junxiong finally combined everyone's opinions to officially name the existing troops as the Northeast Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Army, Lin Junxiong as the commander, Du Sheng as the chief of staff, Shen Yushan as the logistics minister, the revolutionary army is temporarily divided into four columns and a guard team, in addition to the Lianhuashan guard column with Zeng Lingshan as the captain, Fang Yun, Tang Jijun, Xie Qin and Wei Xin each bring a column, in order to ensure that each team has independent combat capability, After Lin Junxiong renamed the shadow team "Phantom Fox Commando", it was expanded to 60 people and divided into five detachments, southeast, northwest, and middle, with Zheng Ming as the captain and Wang Biao and Zhao Xing as the deputy captains.

Lin Junxiong spent two days writing a new training plan in combination with the "three-three system" training method of the People's Liberation Army in later generations. The new training program mainly trains troops in evacuation formation, low-profile advance, detachment coordination, high-speed assault and small group assault capabilities in war.

In the training, the fighters are required to work in groups of three, scattered in an inverted triangle, and the fighters on the left choose the one with accurate marksmanship, he uses a rifle, and shoots the enemy accurately one by one in battle; The fighter on the right chooses the stronger one, who uses a machine gun, shoots at the enemy in battle, suppresses the enemy's attack formation, and provides fire support for his comrades; The fighters in the back choose to throw grenades accurately, throwing grenades at dense enemy areas during the battle.

This kind of training not only strengthens the perfect coordination between the teams, but more importantly, it can distribute the firepower in battle in a clear and coordinated manner, and each battle team can maintain a reasonable distance, so as to avoid excessive losses when covered by enemy artillery fire. At the same time, each battle group is in the form of a front triangle or an inverted triangle charge formation, which can be dense or scattered as a whole according to the situation of the battlefield.

Since the fighters had undergone long-term formal training, they quickly adapted to Lin Junxiong's new training, and after a few days of training, the fighters also understood Lin Junxiong's idea of wanting to reduce casualties, be flexible and mobile, and further enhance their combat effectiveness, and they were even more enthusiastic during the training.

Seeing that the training of the troops was on the right track, Lin Junxiong and Dusheng took a few soldiers to take a comprehensive inspection of Lotus Mountain under the guidance of a guide.

Lin Junxiong and his men stopped and stopped all the way, constantly marking on the map the location of the supply camp to be established, as well as the two or three outward passages of Lotus Mountain that could ensure the retreat in case of emergency, and conducted a detailed survey of the terrain at the exit of the passages.

When the group came to the Guanma Cave a few kilometers away, the tour guide excitedly introduced that this was the place where Yang Jingyu had lived, studied and fought, and that the Xianren Cave was Yang Jingyu's residence and meeting place.

Lin Junxiong and the others walked forward slowly, and the guide introduced that the Guanma Cave is not only a magical cave, but also has many moving legends. It is said that many long years ago, there lived a simple and honest farmer at the foot of Guanma Mountain, he had a wife, a pair of children, and an old father, and the family worked hard, and life was very prosperous. The peasants not only loved their wives and children, but were also filial to the elderly, and were willing to help others, which was praised by their neighbors. One day, the old father fell ill and grabbed medicine everywhere but nothing improved. The father's illness made the children sorrowful. This feeling of filial piety touched the immortals in the cave, and the immortals dreamed of the peasant and told him to hurry up the mountain to fetch spring water for his old father to drink, and he would be cured in three days. The peasants went into the cave early in the morning to get the spring water for the old father to take, the old father's illness was really cured, the news spread, the nearby villagers went up the mountain to get water, the people in a radius of 100 miles because of drinking the spring water in the cave, a strong physique rarely got sick. Since then, people have called this cave "fairy cave", and the spring water in the cave is "holy water". Due to the constant flow of people who come here every day, they must carry lanterns and torches to illuminate the cave, and over time, the roof of the cave is blackened.

Lin Junxiong saw some used carbon heads and some sundries next to the smooth stone table in the fairy cave, he could imagine the difficulties and hardships that Yang Jingyu said he was facing at that time, and think that he now has the assistance of his father and Wu Hansheng in all aspects, the foundation of more than 900 soldiers, and the secret help of Zeng Songyi and Chunmu Dongzi, the conditions for struggle are much better than Yang Jingyu at that time, and his heart is even more aroused to do something to surpass Yang Jingyu's achievements.

While Lin Junxiong was training troops at Lianhua Mountain and perfecting various matters in the base area, the land of China was not calm. On March 27, the Japanese finally occupied Nanchang at the cost of nearly 13,000 men, and began to prepare to advance from Jiangxi and Guangzhou to Hunan; on May 3, the Japanese bombed Chongqing, and on the 6th, Wang Jingwei surrendered to the enemy and telegraphed.

At the same time, due to the long front of the Japanese army, the number of troops was insufficient; The consumption of manpower and material resources is huge, and the financial and economic situation is in trouble; Anti-war and war-weariness began to grow in Japan, and there were endless quarrels within the ruling class over the bankruptcy of the "quick fix" strategy and differences in foreign policy; Moreover, because the Chinese people persisted in the War of Resistance, their strategy of dominating the world was greatly affected, and a passive situation appeared everywhere. Under these circumstances, the Japanese aggressors were forced to adjust their policy of aggression against China.

Politically, China abandoned its past stance of "not taking the Nationalist Government as its opponent" and instead adopted a strategy of mainly political inducement to surrender to the Nationalist Government, supplemented by military strikes. Militarily, it is necessary to stop strategic offensives on frontal battlefields and focus on consolidating the areas already occupied. Economically, it has stepped up economic plundering in an effort to "feed the war with war."

After changing its policy of aggression against China, Japan's military strategy was also adjusted accordingly. First, abandon the strategy of quick victory and prepare for long-term operations. Second, it is clearly stipulated that military operations should serve political and strategic work. Third, limit the scale and intensity of the war in order to reduce attrition. In terms of the scope of operations, "we will not attempt to expand the occupied areas unless there is a major need" and "we will vigorously refrain from expanding the front for which we are not prepared"; In terms of troop strength, "in order to prepare for future changes in the international situation, it is necessary to reduce the number of troops stationed in the cantonment and the consumption of troops in all aspects"; In the form of combat, "small contact" is only "when the enemy concentrates his forces to attack, he will counterattack in time and consume his combat effectiveness." Fourth, shift the focus of military strikes to anti-Japanese guerrilla warfare in the rear.

At the end of June 1939, Junmu Dongzi sent a message to Lin Junxiong that the Japanese army would start a new round of "autumn crusade" against the anti-Japanese forces in the northeast in August, and planned to intensify the crusade against Yang Jingyu's troops in Mengjiang County and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

Lin Junxiong was very satisfied with the one-and-a-half-month training of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Army in Lianhua Mountain, but because Wu Hansheng only brought about 300 guns in three times, the weapons and equipment of the troops were seriously insufficient, and the troops had been idle like this, which was also a big blow to morale.

After some research, Lin Junxiong decided to choose the location of the operation in Dongfeng County, which is less than 70 kilometers away from Panshi County, which is a low hilly area surrounded by mountains and undulating hills, and the mountains in the territory mainly belong to the Hadaling branches, and there are 57 peaks above 500 meters above sea level on the southwest and northeast watersheds, which is convenient for the concealed retreat of the weakly equipped troops at present.

Lin Junxiong ordered the first, second, and third columns of Fang Yun, Tang Jijun, and Xie Qin to participate in this training, and the troops were dispersed into a number of small units, and then rested during the day and marched at night, and asked the route to choose as many mountains and forests as possible, and gathered at Beizhao Mountain in the northeast of Dongfeng County at seven o'clock in the evening three days later.

Lin Junxiong and Dusheng took Wang Biao and Zhao Xing to disguise themselves as leather merchants and first went to Dongfeng County to familiarize themselves with the situation and investigate the reality of the Japanese army.

Two days later, Lin Junxiong and the four of them came to Dongfeng County, where they stopped at a restaurant with good business and listened to the local people talking about the recent major events in Dongfeng County.

"Have you heard, a few days ago in Shahe Township, Dongfeng Three Wolves copied a local pro-Japanese landlord's house, it's really relieving!"

"The three wolves of Dongfeng did not expect to really become a climate, in the past few years, I have repeatedly heard that they were almost forced to a dead end by the devils and the puppet army, but I didn't expect the two years to slow down, using the terrain of Dongfeng County and the Japanese army and the puppet army to maneuver, and also formed a group of more than 200 wolf groups, recently it has been more frequent, so that the Japanese army in Dongfeng County is also anxious, God bless them not to be harmed by the Japanese."

"Yes, the three wolves of Dongfeng have always strictly guarded their 'three kills and three non-kills', and they have never harmed the people, they are all heroes."

"What, you're outsiders, don't you even know the 'three kills and three don't kill' of Dongfeng Three Wolves?" Three killings and three non-killings are to kill devils, traitors, and hypocrites, and not to kill ordinary people, ordinary businessmen, and anti-Japanese righteous soldiers. ”

"Where are they now? How can we possibly know, hey, you won't be devils, I can warn you, there are gods three feet above your head, working for devils, be careful not to get out of this Dongfeng County boundary and be torn apart by the wolves. ”

Lin Junxiong hurriedly stepped forward and said to the excited people: "Don't blame the big brothers, we are coming to Dongfeng Land for the first time, and we are afraid of touching any taboos in this wolf group, so my brother asked more, please don't be surprised." ”

"Oh, that's the case, don't worry, as long as you don't do things for the Japanese, even if you do, the three leaders of the wolf group will not embarrass you."

"Hehe, then we are much more relieved, I just heard a few big brothers talk about the 'Dongfeng Three Wolves', our brothers are also very respectful, I don't know if they can tell us more, now when this national disaster is at the head, this kind of heroic is admirable." Little Er, serve a few more good dishes and a few bottles of good wine. ”

Seeing Xiao Er come up with a few bottles of good wine and serve a few signature dishes of restaurants, a man who is nearly fifty years old said: "It seems that you are really not from the devil's side, who in Dongfeng County doesn't know this." Dongfeng three wolves 'ah, this title is given to the wolf group of three leaders Hu Xianguo and Hu Xiansheng two brothers and the big boss Diao Yongyun, I heard that these three brothers used to be the Kuomintang army, after Japan occupied the three northeastern provinces, the three of them stayed with more than a dozen soldiers to organize the anti-Japanese army in the Dandong area, and then the troops were scattered by the Japanese army, only the three of them remained, and they came to Dongfeng County, they were ghostly, and repeatedly killed the Japanese puppet officials and Japanese soldiers in the county, they robbed the rich and helped the poor, and destroyed the Japanese army' The tribal group', the Japanese army and the puppet army in Dongfeng County are restless, which is really happy! ”

Lin Junxiong got a lot of things about this group of wolves from several people in Dongfeng County, and when he walked out of the restaurant, Lin Junxiong said with a smile: "This group of wolves is a bit interesting, and the 'Dongfeng Three Wolves' are very interesting." ”
