Chapter 239: Attack on Yingkou

The Forbidden City of Beiping, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Army, Navy and Air Force of the National Revolutionary Army. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In Zhang Xueliang's study, Rong Jin, who was the chief of staff of the Northeast Army at the time and Zhang Xinghan had a grudge against his son, was sparing no effort to persuade the hesitant Zhang Shaomari.

"Young marshal, the situation has been investigated, and now the Japanese have captured Yingkou under the leadership of Okamura Ningji.

Zhang Xinghan, the main force of the thief army, has been forced to return to help, and the main force of the Kwantung Army has taken advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the two sides are in the stage of stalemate and attrition.

If our army can get out of the customs at this time, it will definitely be able to recover our Fengjiang country in one fell swoop and reap the benefits of the fisherman! ”

 [Pig ^ Pig ^ Island ^ Novel][]. [zhu] [zhudao]. []; Zhang Xueliang hesitated and said: "He Sheng, Zhang Xinghan is fighting with the Japanese now, after all, if we rashly start a war with them, I am afraid it will cause adverse political impact." ”

"Young marshal, this is simpler." Rong Jin immediately said: "We can send troops in the name of going out to fight against the Japanese invaders and recovering the lost territory, so that we will have a foothold in the national righteousness." ”

Seeing that Zhang Xueliang was still a little hesitant, Rong Jin hurriedly said: "Young marshal, this year is the success of the king and the defeat of the king, as long as we eliminate the Northeast New Army and the remnants of the Kwantung Army, and control public opinion, then it is we who defeat the Japanese and regain the lost territory, what else do you have to worry about, this opportunity is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it will not come again!" ”

"Zhang Xinghan, this bastard, now has more than 200,000 troops in his hands, the army and air force are complete, well-equipped and well-trained, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to defeat alone, right?" Zhang Xueliang said worriedly.

"Young marshal, there is a saying that I don't know whether to say it or not!" Rong Jin suddenly said something meaningful.

"Say!" Zhang Xueliang looked at him and waved his hand.

"Chairman Jiang has a saying that is not often said, if you go outside, you must first settle inside! This sentence is also appropriate for our Northeast Army now, and in the current situation, the Northeast New Army formed by Zhang Xinghan has become the biggest internal trouble of our Northeast Army.

If you want to recover the Northeast, you must first eradicate this internal trouble.

As the young marshal said, Zhang Thief's army has developed rapidly in recent years, and its strength has long been different from what it used to be. We cannot overcome it alone by our present strength.

But, right now, we have a great opportunity. ”

"What chance?" Zhang Xueliang asked anxiously.

"Unite with the Japanese Kwantung Army and attack the Northeast New Army on both sides!" Rong Jin said in one word.

"United Kwantung Army?" Zhang Xueliang frowned when he heard this, and immediately shook his head and said: "In this way, if the matter is revealed, we will really become traitors and national sinners, and we will be scolded by 40,000 people!" What's more, his father died at the hands of the Japanese, and Han Qing hated to avenge his father. This must not be done! ”

"Young marshal, who can bend and judge the situation, weigh the pros and cons for the big husband, and now join forces with the Japanese is the need of the situation.

Moreover, we are not really treason to the enemy, but only using the Japanese to achieve our goal of eliminating internal troubles.

You must know that the marshal also used the Japanese at the beginning, and today, why can't you learn from the young marshal?

Just imagine, as long as we regain control of the three northeastern provinces, the Japanese Kwantung Army has already been greatly damaged by the new army in the northeast. We will have the opportunity to level the Liaodong Peninsula in one fell swoop, and we will be able to avenge the shame of the 918 incident. Rong Jin tried his best to persuade him.

"But... I finally felt that this was not right. Zhang Xueliang couldn't make up his mind.

"Young marshal, you have to feel embarrassed. In this matter, although you nod your head and agree, everything is handled by a humble duty, and you will definitely not leak any rumors. After the deed is done, we will take the Japanese again, and all problems will be solved! Rong said.

I pondered for a long time. Zhang Xueliang finally nodded and said: "Remember, negotiate with the Japanese, and don't agree to any unreasonable demands from them, otherwise, I'd rather stay put, wait for the Northeast New Army to drive the Kwantung Army into the sea, and then go out of the customs to compete with them openly!" ”

"Yes!" Rong Jin happily agreed, and immediately saluted and turned to leave.

……………………

Yingkou City, the headquarters of the Japanese army.

Okamura Ninji is gathering with Kentaro Kuroto, Nakajimamura and others to discuss the next defensive matters.

A devil communications adjutant walked in mysteriously, came to Okamura Ningji, and whispered in his ear: "Your Excellency General, Dalian has transferred the latest urgent telegram. ”

"Oh? What drops work? Okamura Ninji was a little curious.

"Top secret documents, please come to the communication room to reveal it yourself!" The communications adjutant bowed his head.

When Okamura Ninji heard this, he nodded apologetically to Kentaro Kuroto and Nakajimamura, and said, "Two generals, I'll miss you first." ”

As the adjutant arrived in the communication room, Okamura Ninji opened the high-level top-secret message with the words "Top Secret" printed on it.

After reading it, Okamura Ningji suddenly stretched his brows, and a smug sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Yo Xi, this battle has taken a turn." ”

"General, what are we going to do?" The devil adjutant asked.

"Call back to Your Excellency the Commander, and please agree to the other party's request no matter what, as long as they are willing to send troops, everything is easy to say." Okamura Ninji Road.

"Hay!" The devil adjutant suddenly bowed his head and answered.

……………………

Dashiqiao, Zhang Xinghan has moved the headquarters forward here in order to personally direct the project.

"Commander, the 10th Independent Division is in place, the main force of the 4th Independent Division has withdrawn to the west bank of the Daliao River and is retreating to Jinzhou, and the siege troops have been prepared and can attack at any time." Jiang Baili reported to Zhang Xinghan.

"Hmm!" Zhang Xinghan nodded, stared at the map, and said awe-inspiringly: "Order, the air force, the artillery group immediately open fire and carry out indiscriminate coverage bombing of Yingkou!" The divisions were ready for battle, and after the artillery bombardment was over, they simultaneously advanced into the city from four directions! ”

"Yes!" Jiang Baili suddenly agreed, turned around and picked up the telephone and began to convey orders.

A moment later, hundreds of heavy artillery pieces of the Northeast New Army began to roar again, pouring tens of thousands of shells of various types into Yingkou City one after another.

Half an hour later, various bombers of the 1st and 2nd Flying Regiments of the Air Force arrived, especially dozens of Stuka dive bombers, and they began to fly at ultra-low altitudes.

Carpet bombing of Yingkou City.

The entire Yingkou City turned into a sea of fire in less than an hour.

The earth-shaking explosions sounded one after another in the city, and the sound was deafening.

A large mushroom cloud formed by thick smoke and fire rose into the sky.

The buildings and houses in the city were turned into ruins one after another, and many of the devil soldiers hiding in them were instantly reduced to ashes or buried alive.

The bombing of the Air Force, limited by range ammunition, was carried out for less than an hour.

The bombardment lasted for two hours, and the intense and powerful artillery fire almost destroyed the entire city to rubble.

The buildings in the area near the city walls were largely razed to the ground.

After the artillery bombardment ended, the attacking units of the 1st, 9th, and 10th divisions of the Northeast New Army, totaling about three regiments, began to pour into the city from the broken walls on all sides.

In close coordination with the tank armored units, they began to advance into the city.

The main attack force of the 1st Division was personally commanded and led by Niu Erzhu, deputy division commander and commander of the 1st Regiment.

Attacking from the southeast and southeast directions of the city, it was like a bamboo, and soon penetrated into the hinterland of the east and south of the city.

As the commander, Niu Erzhu set up his temporary command headquarters on an armored car, and basically moved forward with the attacking troops.

In Niu Erzhu's words, I have to hear the guns of the attacking troops at all times.

As the advance deepened, the devil's resistance became more and more tenacious.

The streets are full of burnt beams, bricks and other debris, and 80% of the buildings on both sides of the street have been turned beyond recognition, and broken walls and ruins can be seen everywhere.

Some of the bombed-out houses had sparks on their beams and squeaked and squeaked black smoke.

On the street, two No. 4 tanks of the Northeast New Army were rumbling forward, and everywhere they went, all the waste on the ground was crushed and crushed.

The two tanks were followed by about a dozen heavily armed soldiers of the Northeast New Army, several of whom were carrying bazookas.

Each No. 4 tank has a total of two vehicle-mounted machine guns, one machine gun is parallel to the barrel, and the other is erected on the roof of the vehicle, which can be anti-aircraft, and can rotate 360 degrees to fire horizontally to ensure the safety of the flanks around the tank.

The Heavy on the roof of the car was vigilant at the moment, occasionally turning his head to observe the ruins of buildings on both sides of the silent street.

From time to time, gunfire erupted from other directions.

The soldiers following the tank were also very vigilant, divided into two groups, each with their guns raised and guarded the streets.

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out, and a soldier carrying a bazooka rocket fell in response.

The bullet flew out of nowhere, and the soldiers were frightened and frightened, and the tank gunners turned their guns and began to fire on the inconspicuous ruins on both sides of the street.

"Da da da ......!" Dense gunfire rang out, shattering the silence of the street.

Two tongues of fire swept along the streets like the scythe of death, and everywhere they went, debris flew, mud fell, and sparks scattered.

After a few rounds of strafing back and forth, the ruins of buildings on both sides of the street were filled with dust and smoke before stopping.

"Be careful, everyone!" A second lieutenant platoon commander stood up from the already breathing rocketeer and reminded him sadly.

Immediately, he waved his hand: "Keep going!" ”

With that, he crouched down again, picked up the rocketeer's Bazooka, and carried it on his shoulder.

The tank moved forward less than 20 meters, and the sound of two gunshots rang out again.

The target of the devil's sneak attack this time was no longer the infantry, but the machine gunner who had just fired frantically in retaliation, and the two on-board machine gunners on the roof of the tank were shot in the head by the devil almost at the same time.

The corpse fell directly into the tank with a blushing body.

"Damn, the little devil is in the direction of six o'clock, call Lao Tzu!" The second lieutenant platoon commander had sharp eyes and a heart to defend it, and immediately shouted sharply.

Dozens of soldiers opened heavy fire in the direction of six o'clock, and for a time there was a burst of gunfire.
