Chapter 625: After passing through Outer Mongolia, fleeing back to North China

Just when the bombing on the bridge was urgent, and a large number of Japanese troops were waiting on the east bank to cross the river, a volley of bombs exploded on the east bank of the river. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This wave of bombs can be described as overwhelming, coming and going quickly, but in a minute, the bombing stopped.

The bombing of this batch of bombs was so powerful that almost all the buildings on the east bank of the river were damaged, not all the large reinforced concrete buildings. Many of the Japanese soldiers who were lying down and hiding were killed by the flying stones.

This is the famous rocket artillery.

In addition to knowing that the Northeast Coalition Army had cluster bombs, the Japanese also knew that the Northeast Coalition Army had a rapid-fire cannon, and they had already obtained bombs that had not exploded for study, and they roughly knew the principle, and even decided to study imitation. However, everyone in the Japanese army knew about this bomb, and the fear of this bomb was even greater than the fear of cluster bombs.

The Japanese quickly dispersed, the formation was disorganized, and the troops were cut in half, with a small half crossing the river and a large half remaining on the east bank.

The bombing finally stopped, and everything returned to calm, except for the two planes circling over the battlefield.

The Japanese army began to save people.

The hovering planes were reconnaissance planes, constantly reporting on the situation of the Japanese troops they had seen. The Japanese troops stopped moving, learned their lessons, and no longer concentrated near the bridge. The entire city had been blown up several times during mutual attacks by Soviet and Japanese troops, and now it has been bombed again, and there are no intact buildings in sight.

Two days later, the Japanese crossed the Yeseni River at night. The Northeast Coalition forces destroyed the defensive line of the blocking forces with intensive bombardment and tanks. The defensive line of more than 40,000 people was destroyed in less than five days. The Northeast Coalition Army dispatched two units to bypass the Japanese blocking line and attack in its rear. Under the front and rear flanking attacks, the Japanese blocking force suffered heavy casualties, and the remnants of the army were routed and pursued the large force.

On the 17th, the vanguard of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation was already a few kilometers away from the riverbank. Today, the Japanese army east of the river is a defeated blocking force, and their only thought is to cross the river quickly and to the west. As soon as the artillery bombardment of the Northeast Coalition Army stopped, they hurried to cross the river.

In the course of fighting the Northeast Coalition Army for more than a year, the Kwantung Army began to fear the Northeast Coalition Army, was not fully prepared, and was not willing to fight the Northeast Coalition Army at all. They had already received orders to retreat, to pursue the large forces.

The march of the Japanese army to the west was not smooth, and it was easy to clear out the harassing guerrillas, but the planes in the sky were indeed invincible, and after a few days, the losses were huge. The roads were not destroyed, which slowed the progress of the troops, and the bombardment, coupled with the harassment of the guerrillas, had already killed tens of thousands of Japanese troops.

July 26, 1943. Siberia. Achinsk.

It took five days for the Japanese army to occupy the small city.

The defense of the city turned out to be the Northeast Coalition Army. I don't know which way the Northeast Coalition Army came from, they actually made a detour to the front, and used the fortifications built by the Soviet army to inflict great casualties on the imperial army.

Soon, the Japanese discovered that the troops in this small town provided guidance to the air force and artillery, and that the vast majority of the damage was caused by artillery and aircraft. This shows that the small town is within the range of the artillery of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance. This shows that the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation is not far away.

By the fifth day, the defending forces had all withdrawn in one night.

The Japanese army did not repair at all, and immediately set off to kill the battlefield where the German and Soviet troops were fighting. On the same day, the Japanese rearguard arrived, and the city was still in Japanese hands.

A kilometer or two west of Achinsk was the battlefield of the Soviet and German armies.

There is a ghostly little plane hovering over this small city. There were two people in the plane, a pilot and a scout, and he kept reporting back what he saw.

The following scenario was clear to the scout, and to the east was a constant queue of cars, trains, and foot. To the west are the trains, cars and queues, several kilometers long along the railway, who are leaving the city.

Further west, on the north side of the railway, in the woods and fields, on the slopes of a hill, rows and rows of troops lay quietly in ambush there. In the distance, rows of cannons, rocket artillery lined up there.

In the distance, several improvised roads lead to a makeshift road, on which there are also teams and transport vehicles, and oil drums are piled up on the side of the road. Tanks lined up in a row.

The pilot of the reconnaissance plane happened to see the tanks starting, and one by one the tanks drove south, crushing over the green wheat fields, driving towards the railroad and toward the Japanese army.

Although the reconnaissance plane does not fly high, it can also see the flames of war in the West. There, fierce fighting was taking place between the Soviet and German armies.

The reconnaissance plane turned back and turned to the Japanese troops on the railway. At this time, there were several trains on the railway, and the last train was an armored train, not to transport baggage, apparently to transport the Japanese command.

Actually, the pilot of the reconnaissance plane could not see anything unusual. What he didn't detect was that there was chaos in the Japanese armored train at this time, because the latest intelligence said that the 200,000 guerrillas of the Soviet regular army, the army, air force, artillery, and tank units of the Northeast Coalition Army were near the railway.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese troops were deployed on the spot along the railway. On the north side, dozens of planes flew.

The reconnaissance aircraft raised its altitude and ceded the course to the fighters.

At the same time, radio waves were emitted from the mountains and forests near Achinsk. They were answering the radio waves of Vladivostok.

The radio waves in Vladivostok were as follows: the coded channels of the German and Japanese contacts were cracked. Please press the following channel and call sign below to get in touch with the Japanese command and send the following message to them. If the Japanese ask for confirmation, send them a second message.

Twenty minutes later, the Japanese command, which was walking on the road, received a call from the Germans. As previously agreed, the Japanese army responded. The Germans then sent a telegram. After the Japanese deciphered it, the German translator translated German into Japanese: our army was defeated by the Soviet army on three sides and suffered heavy casualties. Our troops decided to retreat.

This telegram was like a bolt from the blue.

The Japanese army immediately sent a telegram asking for reconfirmation.

Soon the other party sent a confirmation call.

The Germans near Novosibirsk were defeated.

A big battle has only been fought for more than 20 days, how can it be so quick to achieve results?

In the morning, the Germans also said that it was going well, why did the situation change suddenly in a few hours?

Call again!

At this time, no matter how you call, there is only noise coming from the telegraph, and there is no answer. Did the Germans really lose?

At this time, there was only a kilometer or two from the battlefield, and the observation post standing on the train also reported that the gunfire in the direction of the Soviet-German battlefield had stopped.

Ironically, the last confirmation telegram from the Germans actually said: We retreated. I hope you will continue to attack westward and join us.

A slow car chases a fast car, this is called rendezvous?

The Japanese army felt that the big thing was not good. In front there were the newly victorious Soviet troops, and in the back there were well-armed anti-Japanese coalition forces. We don't have food supplies, how can we fight this battle?

Contact with the base camp, contact with the Germans, to no avail. Retreat.

How to retreat? Where to go?

In fact, the campaign has not yet yielded results. The Soviets simply temporarily stopped the offensive as agreed. The Germans were also happy to stop fighting and trim themselves. Both sides have been disrupted for hours. After many days of fighting, they were exhausted.

Since the Japanese airfield flight attack, even the liaison planes have been finished, and the two sides can only rely on the German planes to communicate, these days, the Soviet planes intercept the German planes very strictly, and the German Japanese army only has telegraphs.

After the Northeast Coalition Army used the cracked code to send a fake telegram, it activated electronic warfare equipment to interfere with communications.

Later, the German and Soviet armies fought for more than ten days before the winner was decided. After many days of fierce fighting, a large number of partisans appeared from the rear of the German army out of nowhere. These partisans, having paid huge losses, dragged the Germans and destroyed all the roads, and the German reinforcements could be sure that they would not be able to get through for a month.

At the same time, the frontal attack on the salient Soviet troops, relying on the superiority of several times their military strength, overcame the disadvantage of weapons and surrounded the German army under the strict supervision of the warlords.

After confirming the news of the Japanese army's flight from the battlefield, the German Foreign Office protested to Tokyo. Tokyo and the Japanese front line were continuous, but there was no contact at all. The Japanese knew about this situation and thought that the Germans, relying on the superiority of weapons, could still hold on, and when they arrived, they could achieve victory.

The development of the situation soon exceeded the expectations of the German army, and the German army, which was seriously undersupplied, had to retreat on its own initiative, was pursued by the Soviet army, and was routed, suffering heavy casualties.

It's an iconic twist. The Japanese left the battlefield before this turning point came.

A few days later, the Tokyo base camp made contact with this group of Japanese troops. Hearing that they said that the Germans retreated first, they asked why the Germans did not tell the truth.

At this time, the German telecommunications monitors also discovered the two fake telegrams. Both sides understood that he had been deceived. Who is it? Definitely Soviet.

July 27, 1943. Vladivostok.

Xiao Lu was always in the war room, and he had to read every piece of intelligence sent back from the Soviet front.

In fact, the encirclement and annihilation of the Japanese army began on the front line according to the plan, including the small road involved in decision-making, and even Yan'an could not intervene, only waiting for news from the front. Yan'an's style is to only take care of strategic matters, regardless of specific tactical matters.

There was only a briefing on the front, no instructions, and no emergency reports, so Xiaolu knew that everything was going according to plan on the front line.

In order to cut off the hope of the Japanese army, Koji's plan was for the Soviets to destroy the advancing German army. In order to destroy the German army, it was planned to ask the USSR to attack the German reinforcements and disrupt the communications of the German reinforcements.

The plan even told them the methods of destroying traffic in the Battle of Nanjing, and asked them to dig up the road and refill it with water, so that even if the German army repaired it, the roadbed was unstable and the transportation capacity could not be increased.

With regard to the annihilation of the Japanese army, the plan provided for a fierce attack from the eastern side of the Japanese army with the most advanced weapons of the Northeast Coalition Army, and at the same time bluffed to make the Japanese army think that the Northeast Coalition Army had 500,000 troops.

As for the illusion of the plague, it was also necessary for the Japanese army to make up their minds and leave here as soon as possible. The Soviets retreated to the west, and the Japanese army also went west, and the Japanese did not think that this was a trap.

At the same time, the Soviet guerrillas have helped the Northeast Coalition Army to open up the original path in the north into a road that can be exercised by tanks, and a large number of war materials have been transported to the Soviet Army and the guerrillas, and the Northeast Coalition Army has also transported mechanized troops and artillery here, preparing to intercept the Japanese army halfway.

Such a big move would not have been possible without the cooperation of the people.

This is just war.

In addition, Xiaolu used a computer to decipher the communication telegrams between the Japanese and German troops. After several rounds of deciphering, the power of modern software was really powerful, and many telegrams were deciphered. With the cipher, coupled with the electronic jamming equipment of the front-line troops, the staff officers have thought of a strategy, the timing of their implementation and the means of follow-up.

Sure enough, the fake telegram worked.

After reading the telegram, Xiaolu gave it to Wei Zhengmin and said: "These hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops will either be consumed in Siberia and the Soviet army to the end, or they will flee back to the east, or they will flee south to Shanxi." What do you think the Japanese army will do? ”

Wei Zhengmin said: "To the south, through Outer Mongolia, fled back to North China. ”
