The marching distance between Panshan County and Yingkou County is about 150 miles. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Xinghan led his troops to set off at about half past three in the afternoon, and by seven o'clock in the evening they had arrived at the west bank of the Da Liao River, where they were crossing the river, and they were already close to Yingkou.

On the sea about five nautical miles from Yingkou, dozens of Japanese warships, large and small, had stopped, and of course they had not extinguished.

Although five nautical miles is a little farther away, it is not that the Japanese do not want to approach, but they must be on guard against the possible threat of artillery fire from the Northeast New Army.

Although the power of the 150mm caliber gun cannot be compared with their naval guns, if they really take a few shots, the consequences will be unimaginable. , pigs, pigs, islands, novels

Around dozens of warships, batches of rubber boats, small landing craft have been launched and are ready.

These were all ships used by the Japanese army to receive the evacuation of the troops at the port, and there were more than 200 ships large and small, which could transport up to 1,500 to 200 people at one time.

According to the number of Japanese troops at Yingkou, excluding the troops blocking the palace, they only need ten to fifteen times to pick up all the troops on the ship.

Half an hour at a time, at least five hours.

Therefore, when the navy informed Okamura Ninji of this situation, Okamura Ninji, who was already preparing to evacuate, immediately shook his head and said: "No, five hours is too long, the navy must send large landing ships to meet the retreat of the imperial army, plus all kinds of small ships, at least 3,000 to 4,000 imperial troops must be evacuated at one time, and all evacuation operations must be completed within two to three hours." ”

As soon as Okamura finished speaking, dozens of Japanese warships on the sea had already begun shelling.

A deafening shelling suddenly sounded, breaking the quiet night sky.

Outside the city, on the position of a certain tank division of the Northeast New Army, a sudden muffled sound came from the direction of the sea.

Alerting the vigilantes on duty, they turned to look at the source of the sound, only to find a dazzling scarlet fireball piercing the night sky and hurtling towards them.

The faces of the guards changed greatly, and they hurriedly shouted at the top of their throats, "It's not good. There is an enemy situation, devils shelling, shelling! ”

It was too late, dozens of large-caliber naval artillery shells were already falling with a whistling fall.

Suddenly, there was a violent explosion that shook the earth, and in the dark night, the big explosion was as dazzling as fireworks, and the scarlet flames rose into the air, reaching a height of more than ten meters.

Division Headquarters of the 1st Division.

Jiang Baili and Huang Xiansheng, who were having dinner, were alarmed by the violent explosion.

The two ran out of the headquarters one after another, looking at the fire rising into the sky in the distance, Jiang Baili's face changed greatly: "It's broken." It must be the little devil who wants to break through. ”

Huang Xiansheng was also very flustered and said, "Chief of Staff, I'll take someone to see it in person." ”

"Don't worry, Brother Alert, this should be the Japanese gunner's artillery shelling, it seems that the devils are planning to break through by sea, their shelling will last for a while, we can't mess up.

In this case, I immediately went to send a telegram to the commander and asked him to speed up the march and come as soon as possible. You sit in command and command the regiments to immediately move closer to the south of the city, and if the devils want to evacuate by sea, they will definitely evacuate from the south of the city. ”

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Huang Xiansheng nodded in response.

"And. The tank division is in the south of the city, in order to prevent them from messing up, don't forget to contact them. Jiang Baili did not forget to instruct.

"Well, I understand." Huang Xiansheng nodded again.

The two then went their separate ways.

……………………

West bank of the Great Liao River. The 4th and 10th divisions are crossing the river one by one.

The sound of a violent explosion in Yingkou City faintly reached Zhang Xinghan's ears.

"Jianguo, what kind of voice do you listen to?" Zhang Xinghan stopped smoking and asked.

When Liu Jianguo heard this, he hurriedly listened to it, and his face changed greatly: "Commander." It seems to be the sound of shelling. ”

"Well, it sounds like that, too." Zhang Xinghan nodded.

As soon as his words fell, Guo Zhong hurriedly ran over with a telegram in his hand.

"Commander, the chief of staff has just sent an urgent telegram, and the Japanese H naval fleet suddenly appeared and launched an artillery attack on the positions of our troops at Yingkou.

The chief of staff said that the devils might have to flee by sea, and asked us to rush to Yingkou as soon as possible to support the battle. Guo Zhong stood up and saluted.

Zhang Xinghan's color changed slightly, and he asked, "How many troops have crossed?" ”

"Two regiments have already crossed the river and are massing." Guo Zhong replied.

Zhang Xinghan immediately turned his head to Liu Jianguo and said: "Jianguo, you stay and command the troops to continue to cross the river, and I will lead two regiments to Yingkou first to block the Japanese army!" ”

"Commander, why don't I lead the team." Liu Jianguo said with concern.

"Okay, this time it's not just about jointly commanding the divisions, it's me." Zhang Xinghan waved his hand.

Liu Jianguo no longer insisted, and nodded: "Yes, take care, commander." ”

Zhang Xinghan nodded, waved his hand to Guo Zhong and said, "Zhongzi, take the guard battalion, let's go!" ”

……………………

In the south of Yingkou City, there was fire everywhere, and the smoke of gunpowder was filled, and some No. 4 tanks were unfortunately bombarded by the devil's naval guns and had turned into a pile of scrap metal, which was still on fire at the moment.

Because Jiang Baili and Huang Xiansheng were not afraid of danger and dealt with them in a timely manner, the tank division deployed in the south of the city suffered certain losses.

But there was no confusion, and they were moving under the command of their respective officers, and quickly evacuated the bombing area of the devils.

At the same time, full of anger, they were ready to intercept the Japanese troops out of the city.

At this moment, in the direction of the north of the city, a group of Japanese troops suddenly came out, because most of the troops in the north of the city were moving closer to the south of the city.

A small number of alert troops were caught off guard and were defeated by the Japanese.

"Attendance, the division seat is not good, a Japanese army suddenly came out of the north gate, and the encircling troops at the north gate have been defeated by it."

At the headquarters of the 1st Division, a second lieutenant officer ran in with a panicked expression.

"North of the city?" Jiang Baili was slightly startled when he heard this.

"Senza, could this be a plan for the devil to attack the west?" Huang Xian said.

Jiang Baili nodded and said, "Very likely." ”

"So what are we going to do?" Huang Xiansheng asked.

"Regardless of whether the devils are attacking the east or the west, we can't let them break through smoothly, and we must transfer troops to drive the Japanese troops at the north gate back to the city.

Otherwise, with them in the back, it will be difficult for our army to block the Japanese army from breaking through from the south of the city with all its might. Jiang Baili said.

"Then I'll transfer the second regiment over immediately." Huang Xian said.

"Okay, but pay attention to the devils in the east of the city, in case they repeat their old tricks and attack from the east of the city again." Jiang Baili nodded.

Huang Xiansheng gave an order, and the second regiment, which was moving from the east of the city to the south of the city, immediately turned around and returned to the north of the city.

At this moment, the Japanese naval guns suddenly stopped shelling the south of the city, turned the muzzle, and aimed at the east of the city, where the headquarters of the 1st Division was located.

A violent explosion sounded in the east of the city one after another, and the sky-high flames almost reflected half of the sky.

"Boom!" A violent explosion sounded not far from the headquarters of the 1st Division, and the huge blast wave shook the headquarters and caused the earth chips to fall.

Huang Xiansheng shook his head, spit out a mouthful of spit and scolded: "Damn, this little devil's naval cannon is really powerful." ”

General Jiang Baili took off his hat and slapped it with his hand: "That's natural, the devil's navy is known as the first in Asia and the third in the world, and its strength is naturally not ordinary." ”

"If only we could have a navy of this size." Huang Xiansheng said with emotion.

"yes." Jiang Baili also nodded a little yearningly, and said with emotion: "Brother Alarm Bell, you should have heard of Tanaka's performance, right?" ”

"I've heard that this Tanaka song seems to say that if Japan wants to conquer our China, it must first conquer Manchu and Mongolia, that is, our four provinces outside the Guan, right?" Huang Xian said.

"If you want to conquer China, you must first conquer Manchuria. If you want to conquer the world, you must first conquer China. If China can be conquered by our country, then other nations such as Minor Central Asia and the South Seas of India will fear and respect me and surrender to me, and the world will know East Asia as our East Asia, and will never dare to invade us.

This is the main content of Tanaka's sonata, and the meaning is clear, and it is enough to show the ambition of the Japanese. Jiang Baili said this and paused meaningfully: "And Jiang also has an ambition and opinion related to the survival and development of the Chinese nation. ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. Huang Xiansheng said curiously.

"The Japanese want to conquer China in order to contend with the world, so as to achieve their ambition of expanding the living space of the nation, dominating Asia, and even dominating the world.

If the Chinese nation wants to rise again and stand tall among the great powers, we must first cut off our great henchmen -- Japan.

The Japanese are an extremely ambitious people, and their unique geography forces them to constantly expand outward in order to gain more living space.

And Chinese mainland and the Korean Peninsula are the best primary targets for their expansion.

If China wants to rise and rejuvenate China, it must eliminate the Japanese as a serious problem, not to mention destroying them all, or at least completely defeat them militarily.

They will lose the strength to watch over our Chinese nation, and to achieve this strategic goal, we must have our own strong navy. ”

"Well, that's reasonable, the staff is far-sighted, these words can be talked about with our commander-in-chief, I think the commander will definitely be interested." Huang Xiansheng nodded in agreement.

It is necessary to know that China is still an agricultural country, and the comprehensive strength of Japan is very different, so it is not easy to build a navy that can rival Japan. Jiang Baili said helplessly.

"Don't be discouraged, when the 918 Incident broke out, we didn't expect that the Northeast Battlefield would become the current situation, right? So, anything is possible. Huang Xiansheng is very optimistic, but he actually believes in Zhang Xinghan.

Jiang Baili nodded and sighed: "Commander-in-Chief Tianzong is a genius, I have seen a masterpiece in China for a hundred years, with this soldier, the Northeast is very fortunate, the country is very fortunate, and the Chinese nation is very fortunate!" ”

At this moment, another staff officer hurriedly ran in and saluted: "Counselor, division, the devil has begun to break through and attack from the south gate." (To be continued......)
