Therefore, Rao is He Lichong and Li Shusen acted extremely carefully, and there was no sign of even marching in the direction of Jinzhou. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

But his whereabouts were still exposed, but these two upstarts of the Northeast Army didn't know yet.

He was leading two brigades of nearly 20,000 elite troops to rush to Chaoyang County at night.

Chaoyang County is located in the western part of Liaoning, north of Jinzhou and south of Tongliao.

The surface layer of Chaoyang is stacked on top of each other, the hills are undulating, the canyons are alternate, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, there are only small pieces of flat land between the mountains and the impact plains along the river, and the structure is "seven mountains, one water and two fields".

The natural types of land in the novel are diverse, such as mountains, hills, hills, rivers, and flatlands, and the types of land use are also diversified. The main mountain ranges in Chaoyang City are Nuruer Tiger Mountain, Phoenix Mountain, Duling Mountain, Daqing Mountain and Daheishan Mountain.

If you are not familiar with Chaoyang, several major rivers in its territory should be familiar.

The most famous are the Daling River and the Laoha River, and historically, the Northeast Army relied on the Daling River in Jinzhou to resist the Japanese invasion.

The straight-line distance from Chaoyang to Jinzhou is only more than 80 kilometers, while the distance from Shanhaiguan is 200 kilometers, and the actual marching distance is more than 250 kilometers.

Therefore, although the tank regiment and other reinforcements of the 4th Independent Division set off late, they marched along the buffer plain route along the Daling River, and they still rushed to Chaoyang County before the Northeast Army without any suspense.

At this time, not long after the Japanese withdrew from Chaoyang County, the main force of the Northeast New Army was used to attack southward, and only some of the original puppet army military police were used.

Liu Dongqing, commander of the tank regiment of the 4th Independent Division, commanded the motorized infantry battalion and the tank regiment to take the county seat without much effort.

It was too late to quickly take over the city's defenses, march overnight, and repair the fortifications outside the city.

Liu Dongqing ordered the motorized infantry battalion to defend the city, hold the city walls, and immediately report to Jinzhou.

At the same time, Zhang Xinghan also led the vanguard of the 10th Independent Division, a motorized infantry regiment and a tank regiment to Jinzhou.

In the headquarters, after greeting Liu Jianguo and others.

Cao Pingzhi, the deputy division commander, walked in quickly with a piece of paper. Saluted: "Commander, division, Liu Dongqing called, they have arrived in Chaoyang first, and there is no trace of the Northeast Army!" At present, he has ordered his troops to enter the city and hold on. ”

Zhang Xinghan said: "Call Liu Dongqing back, the tank regiment can't stay in the city and defend it, drive out of the city immediately, give full play to its mobility and assault ability, search for the vanguard of the Northeast Army, and give them a head-on blow!" This is called attacking instead of defending. ”

"Yes!" Cao Pingzhi saluted. He immediately took the order and left.

After seeing him leave, Liu Jianguo said to Zhang Xinghan eagerly: "Commander, what should we do next?" ”

Zhang Xinghan didn't answer directly, but walked to the map, stared at the map, and said: "Leave some troops to defend Jinzhou, and the main force will all advance in the direction of Xingcheng, let's meet the elite of the Northeast Army of Zhang Shaoshuai!" ”

"Yes!" Liu Jianguo happily accepted the order.

That night, Zhang Xinghan and Liu Jianguo personally led the main force of the 4th Independent Division of the Northeast New Army to pour out. Advance along the railway line in the direction of Xingcheng.

At the same time, Liu Dongqing also led the tank regiment to leave Chaoyang and march westward, searching for and meeting the vanguard of the Northeast Army.

At dawn, the search unit under Liu Dongqing encountered the spearhead troops of He Lichong's 7th Independent Brigade.

Six No. 4 tanks faced the cavalry of the Northeast Army, numbering in one platoon. There was no suspense in the battle.

After a heavy fire and artillery fire, more than half of the Northeast Army was killed and wounded, and the rest surrendered directly.

It's not that they're too spineless, it's that they don't think about it at all. Here you will be attacked by tank troops.

That fierce firepower couldn't even stand the Japanese Kwantung Army, let alone the Northeast Army, which had not fought for more than two years.

To the surprise and anger of the captured Northeast officers and soldiers, their opponent turned out to be the national army. Or rather, the Northeast Army.

The captured second lieutenant cavalry platoon commander was very large, staring at Liu Dongqing, who personally led the team, with red eyes, and a pair of eyes almost flat spewed fire.

Liu Dongqing's ability to be promoted from tens of thousands of officers and soldiers to the rank of colonel and commander of the tank regiment of the 4th Mobu Division is naturally not a good one.

kicked the big guy to the ground: "Damn, you're all taken prisoner, and you dare to stare at me like this?!" ”

The big man fell to the ground and tried to fight back, but he was stared at by two flower machine guns, and finally did not dare to act rashly.

His performance was seen by Liu Dongqing, and he said with an intriguing smile: "What's the matter, boy, are you not convinced?" ”

The big second lieutenant snorted coldly, spat at the ground, and said, "I'm sorry, I only have things in the nest, do you have the ability not to fight the Japanese, but to fight our Northeast Army?" ”

Liu Dongqing squatted down with a smile instead of being angry, and said with a smile: "You said that Lao Tzu is in the nest? So what are you? As for fighting devils, since the beginning of the defense of Shenyang, Lao Tzu has killed no less than ten devils with his own hands, how many the hell have you killed? ”

"We? What's wrong with us? We were ordered to go out to resist the Japanese, but before we could see the shadow of the Japanese, we were ambushed by you! The big man was not afraid, and met Liu Dongqing's gaze: "When I was in the Guannai, I often heard my brothers say that your Northeast New Army is a real devil-fighting force, and my brothers and I always want to be able to go out of the customs to fight side by side with you and regain lost territory."

I finally looked forward to the order to go out of the customs to resist Japan, I didn't fight the devils, but I was killed by you more than 20 people, they are all hot-blooded men who are dedicated to serving the country, they didn't die under the devil's gun, but they died in the hands of you bastards, of course I don't accept it! ”

The more the big man talked, the angrier he became, his emotions were agitated, and he almost lost control.

"Out of the customs to resist Japan?" The corners of Liu Dongqing's mouth flashed with a disdainful sneer: "Needless to say, the sinister intentions of your Northeast Army to get out of the customs are so high-sounding and so righteous."

Everyone knows that your Young Marshal Zhang saw that the anti-Japanese situation was very good, so he hurriedly used the slogan of going out to resist Japan and save the country and the people to seize the territory and compete for the fruits of victory. ”

As a middle-level general, Liu Dongqing naturally could not have known that Zhang Xueliang had reached an agreement with the Japanese to join forces to defeat their Northeast New Army.

Like most of the new officers and soldiers in the Northeast, they only thought that the Northeast Army had come out of the customs to grab territory with them.

The big man obviously didn't agree with Liu Dongqing's "slander", and looked at each other angrily with his neck: "You spew blood!" ”

"Bloody mouth? Then let me ask you, since it is out of the customs to resist the Japanese, why did you not get in touch with us, and the Japanese have now been suppressed by us to the Yingkou area.

You can go east along the railway line and go to the front line through Jinzhou, but now you are quietly touching Chaoyang, is there a devil in Chaoyang?

It has been more than two years since the 918 incident, and your young marshal Zhang really wants to resist Japan.

What did you do earlier? Now the devil is dying, but he is going to go out to resist Japan and save his family and save the country.

Do you really fucking take everyone in the world for a fool? Liu Dongqing's words were speechless, and the big lieutenant was speechless, wanting to defend but lacking confidence.

"The march to Chaoyang is done by order, and the soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, maybe our commander has other arrangements!" The big guy didn't give up and reluctantly explained.

"Alright, don't fucking excuse your despicable behavior here, maybe your little platoon commander doesn't know your commander's sinister intentions.

However, as a normal person who is not stupid or crazy, you touch your conscience and think about what Lao Tzu just said. Zhang Xueliang ordered you to go out at this time, what is the purpose? Liu Dongqing waved his hand a little impatiently.

As soon as his words fell, a soldier hurriedly ran over, snapped forward and saluted: "Tuanza, ten miles ahead, I found a large group of enemy troops!" ”

"Huh?" Liu Dongqing changed color slightly when he heard this, and immediately said: "Order all battalions to attack immediately and beat this group of bastards in the nest!" ”

"Yes!" The soldier replied loudly and was ordered to hurry.

Liu Dongqing turned his head to look at the big captive the moment before putting on the steel helmet: "Boy, the body is good, if you come to work as a tank soldier, you will definitely be a good seedling of ammunition, take a good look at it, and see who is the real anti-Japanese team!" ”

Without waiting for the big man to speak, he buckled his helmet and ordered the adjutant on the side: "Take them all back to Chaoyang City." ”

Ten miles away, on a dirt slope on the side of the highway, He Lichong and Li Shusen, who were wearing white gloves, were holding binoculars to look out.

The rising light pulled their figures to the elder.

"Brother Li, the reconnaissance force may have encountered an accident, it seems that the rebels of the Northeast New Army may have been prepared!" He Lichong's tone was a little solemn and put down the binoculars.

Li Shusen also put down his binoculars, but he was more optimistic, and said: "Brother He doesn't have to worry too much, according to intelligence, the main force of the Northeast New Army is basically contained by the Japanese in the Yingkou area.

The total strength of the Jinzhou area will never exceed 20,000 people, and as for Chaoyang County, it is extremely empty.

Besides, even if they were prepared in advance and sent reinforcements to Chaoyang County, how many troops could they have?

And we have an army of 20,000, and it is not easy to take a small Chaoyang county?

Our goal should not be limited to here, it should be Shenyang City! ”

He Lichong frowned and nodded, "I hope so, there is always a feeling of uneasiness in my heart." ”

"Brother He doesn't have to be nervous and excited, as long as Shenyang is taken, then we will be the first heroes to fight against Japan! Ahh Li Shusen seemed to see the picture of leading his troops into Shenyang City and standing at the head of the city to have a bird's-eye view of the whole city, and he couldn't help but laugh proudly.

But his laughter could not last, and an adjutant riding a horse suddenly turned back from the front, almost fell off his horse, and reported to the two in a panic: "Brigade seat, something is wrong, a tank unit has appeared in front of us, and it is rapidly approaching our forward troops, and most of the sharp platoons sent before are all wiped out."
