Chapter 262: Extraordinary Times
After hearing this, Blyukhel's eyes lit up, and he muttered: "In this way, the Northeast New Army should be almost exhausted by now, and in the words of the Chinese, it should be the end of the strong bow." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Yes, I think that if the Northeast New Army does transfer the air force to the south in Jiamusi and other places.
That might be a difficult opportunity for us. Reeves said.
"Tell me about it." Blyukhel leaned back in his chair with great interest and waved his hand.
"In the incident of the Eastern Railway, Zhang Xinghan completely deceived us and perfunctory, which is a rogue act.
Pigs! Pig! Island! Novel; And the defeat in this war is also a disgrace to our great Soviet Union.
So, we have to look for an opportunity to get rid of it, general, are you right when you say humiliation? Reeves said.
"Hmm." Blyukhel nodded in agreement.
"Well, now our opportunity has come, just take advantage of the fact that the main forces of the Northeast New Army are in Dalian after handing fire with the Japanese.
We were able to assemble an absolute superiority in forces and launch another attack on Manchuria and Heihe, and the new army in the northeast could not take care of the whole thing.
We will definitely be able to win, and it will not be a problem to even capture the whole of North Manchuria.
In order to ensure that the operation was foolproof, he also suggested that we should unite with the Japanese in this campaign.
The Japanese wanted the Japanese to hold back the main force of the Northeast New Army in Dalian, and as long as we captured North Manchuria, the Northeast New Army would lose its rear base area.
At this time, we will be flanked by the north and south with the Japanese, and we can divide the entire northeast according to the railway line. Saying this, Reeves lowered his voice and said: "Even, after solving the Northeast New Army, we can take the opportunity to open fire on the Japanese, recapture the brigade and military port that originally belonged to us, and monopolize the entire Manchuria." ”
Blyukhel nodded approvingly, and muttered, "Reeves informs you that these insights are unique. I will seriously consider it and report it to the great SDL leaders. ”
…………………………
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xinghan, Jiang Baili and others led their troops to catch up with the advanced army of Zhao Zhenfan and Wang Yizhe.
After joining forces, the troops were stationed on the periphery of Jinxian County (present-day Jinzhou District, Dalian).
Jinzhou was the last barrier to Dalian, where the Japanese deployed heavy troops.
Zhang Xinghan did not rush to attack, but took Jiang Baili and others to secretly come to the front line to reconnoiter the terrain and the deployment of Japanese troops.
The east of Jinxian County is built according to the big black mountain, this mountain is the first mountain in southern Liaoning, and it is steep and abnormal.
So if you want to enter Dalian.
It was necessary to break through the Japanese defense line of Jinxian.
In Okamura Ninji's defensive battle plan, the most critical point is the Jinxian defense line, which is the first forward line of defense. It is also the most critical spinning thread.
Before Zhang Xinghan led his troops to arrive, Ryokaraka, an old devil, had already adopted Okamura Ningji's deployment.
The troops originally deployed in Jinshan were increased by two percent, and the fortifications along the mountain were repaired in preparation for continuous resistance.
In a high-slope forest at the western foot of Dahei Mountain, Zhang Xinghan put down his binoculars, turned his head to Jiang Baili and said, "Chief of Staff, the terrain here is steep enough."
Jin County is built by the mountains and the sea, and if you want to pass from here. There are only two roads, the first is to storm Jinxian, and the second is to take the sea route.
It's a pity that we don't have a navy, that is. There's only one way left. ”
Jiang Baili also frowned and nodded: "It can be said that this place is so steep, I think the Japanese army will definitely deploy heavy troops here, if it is attacked." The price is too high. ”
"Let's go, go back first, and then figure out a way." Zhang Xinghan thought for a while.
The group secretly returned to the secret headquarters located more than ten miles north of Jin County.
Jiang Baili and the others frowned. fell into deep thought, and then worried about how to attack Dalian.
"Damn, I didn't expect that the terrain here is really steep, and if you attack it, it will be too difficult." Gao Chu, the commander of the 9th Division, looked at the map and complained.
"What can you do without attacking? Can we still fly over to King County? Liu Jianguo said casually.
The speaker had no intention of listening, and Zhang Xinghan's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "Hey, there is a way." ”
"What's the solution?" Jiang Baili and others surrounded curiously.
"Jianguo's words just now reminded me, we will fly over Jin County, bypass this first line of defense of the devils, and parachute!" Zhang Xinghan said.
"Airborne?" Except for Jiang Baili, almost everyone else couldn't understand.
They all looked at each other and were confused.
Jiang Baili frowned and said: "Commander, this airborne has to go through professional training, and we don't have qualified airborne troops at all." ”
"Then let's train quickly." Zhang Xinghan said.
Jiang Baili's head shook like a rattle, and said, "Training now?" No, no, it's too late, and if you want to train a soldier to become a qualified paratrooper, it will take three months to half a year at the earliest, otherwise it will be death if you jump. ”
"Chief of Staff, in extraordinary times, you must use extraordinary methods, and you are talking about qualified airborne troops.
What we need now is that as long as the soldiers involved in the parachute can master the basic essentials of parachuting, they can open the parachute. Zhang Xinghan said.
"The proportion of accidents that may occur will be greatly increased, and once an accident occurs in the air, it will be an accident that destroys the umbrella and kills people." Jiang Baili said.
"I know, but we don't have a choice, if we go on a frontal attack step by step, and if such a battle continues, we may not be able to take Dalian in a month.
And, even if we win in the end, the price we pay will be extremely heavy. Zhang Xinghan said: "Have you ever thought about it, if we fail to capture Dalian before the arrival of Japanese reinforcements, then the situation of the war may be reversed in an instant, and more people may die at that time."
And, let's not forget, there is an enemy to the north of us that is not much better than the Japanese. So we can't afford to drag it out at all. ”
"Then we don't have qualified paratrooper instructors to help us train." Jiang Baili said.
"This, you don't have to worry, I have my own way." Zhang Xinghan said.
"How long will the commander train?" Zhao Zhenfan asked curiously.
"For three days, up to five days, all paratroopers participating in the training must go to war. Airborne to the rear of Jinxian, with the main force inside and outside the attack, in one fell swoop to break through the devil's Jinxian defense line.
As long as we break through Jin County, then the city of Dalian is close at hand, and all that remains is to besiege the fortress of Lushun. Zhang Xinghan swore solemnly.
"Three days?" Jiang Baili, Zhao Zhenfan, Wang Yizhe and others were all a little unbelievable.
"Hmm." Zhang Xinghan immediately decided: "Time is pressing, I have decided to implement this plan immediately, and in the few days that I have left, all the troops will be temporarily commanded by Uncle Wang, Division Commander Huang, and the Chief of Staff.
Remember to launch an appropriate attack on the Japanese troops in Jinxian in order to create the illusion that our army is going to launch a frontal assault in Jinxian, confuse the enemy, and win fighters for our airborne troops. ”
"Yes!" Jiang Baili and the three of them hurriedly stepped forward to respond.
After making up his mind, Zhang Xinghan immediately asked 1,000 elite officers and men with good physical fitness from various divisions to rush to Jinzhou by car.
At the same time, Gao Zhihang was ordered to send a group of air forces to Huludao Airport.
He also ordered Du Ting to escort the 30,000 captives to Jinzhou.
Outside the city of Jinxian.
Two infantry battalions and one tank armored battalion of the Northeast New Army were ready for sorties.
Heavy artillery units and air force fighters are bombing and shelling Japanese troops in King County.
The whole Jin County was full of artillery and explosions.
The sound echoed into the valley for a long time, frightening all kinds of wild animals in the mountains and forests to flee in all directions.
Half an hour later, the first bombardment and shelling ended.
Two battalions of more than 1,000 officers and men of the Northeast New Army immediately launched a tidal charge towards the Japanese positions outside Jinxian County under the cover of dozens of tanks of a tank battalion.
The Japanese have been operating in Dalian for a long time, and most of Jinxian is well-fortified.
The field defensive positions outside the city are connected to the city by tunnels, and even to the foothills to the east.
A large number of individual bunkers such as cat's ear holes invented by the People's Liberation Army were also excavated and built in the trench fortifications.
The Japanese were adept at digging and building fortifications, and it is said that they were able to dig a set of fortifications of a fairly good standard in just over three hours per march.
Although there may be some exaggeration, it is undeniable that the level of fortification construction of the Japanese army, whose entire army has undergone regular military training, is far superior to that of the Chinese army at this time.
Of course, the Northeast New Army is an exception, because they have the command of Zhang Xinghan, a traverser.
Zhang Xinghan, who has a more perfect defense capability and stronger defense capability, has long taught his subordinates, and now these excavation skills have already penetrated into the grassroots units of the Northeast New Army.
To get back to the point, the Japanese have been operating in the Jinxian defense line for a long time, and now they have the guidance of a cunning old devil called Okamura Ninji.
This person has a strong ability to accept fresh food and also has a strong creative mind.
Therefore, the Japanese army was fully prepared in the defense line of Jinxian and even the entire Dalian, especially how to fight against the invincible tank and armored forces of the Northeast New Army in the plain.
Dozens of No. 4 tanks rumbled along, occasionally firing at Japanese positions, and the machine gunners were also engrossed in vigilance.
More than 1,000 infantrymen followed the rear of the tank group and slowly advanced.
For a while, there was nothing but the rumble of tanks, the footsteps of infantry, and the clashing of grenades and other equipment while walking.
There was no other sound, especially the Japanese field positions that had just been bombarded and shelled, and it was even quieter and panicked.
Soon, the attacking troops were less than two hundred meters away from the Japanese positions, and the tank crews stopped their attacks, as their previous combat experience told them.
We can't just push forward blindly.
The tank stopped advancing, but did not extinguish its fire, and was ready to fire at any time in support.
The infantry that followed behind the tank group immediately poured out like a tidal wave, let out a deafening roar, and charged towards the last two hundred meters.
