Chapter 341: The shackles that get tighter and tighter the more you struggle

November 2, 1939. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Zarantun.

At the same time, the Japanese army, which had reoccupied Qiqihar, moved westward, and after passing Zhalantun, began to build roads. As a result, this section of the mountain was high and steep, and it was blown up too hard to be repaired in a short time. In addition, the Japanese army sent troops forward, and saw that all the sections of the road in front of them with steep terrain had been bombed.

The Kwantung Army command ordered the Japanese army to arrest people to build roads, but they could not find anyone in the villages on both sides of the railway, so they had to arrest the people of the towns to build roads.

Several of the bombed-out roads were covered by thousands of people, some Japanese sappers and some local civilians. The Japanese army had good tools, and the people had everything. Now, the weather is getting colder, the Japanese army and the people have nothing to eat, they can't do much work in a day, and the progress of road construction is slow.

The Kwantung Army could not gather tens of thousands of people to build roads, and they knew that it would be impossible to build the Binzhou Line before winter, so they could only stop work and build as much as they wanted.

The Kwantung army was so angry that they wanted to fight, but they couldn't find each other at all, so they had to spread their anger on the people, and almost all the villages along the railway were burned.

Early November 1939. Wangye Temple.

At the same time as opening the Binzhou line, the Japanese army began to work hard to open the Bai'a line.

The cities of the Bai'an line were occupied by the Mongol columns, and the Japanese army slaughtered violently, expecting to encounter stubborn resistance, but after the arrival, there was no resistance at all, and the anti-Japanese coalition troops did not know where to go.

Looking at the situation of the railway, the devil was shocked. From Baichengzi, section by section of the railway was destroyed, the tracks were dismantled and moved, and some of the sleepers were burned locally, and some were moved. Some places had apparently just been burned, and smoke was still rising from the charcoal.

Resistance was not at all, the Japanese army marched west to attack, and after a short walk, the problem came, and the supplies could not keep up. The car capacity is insufficient, and in order to speed up the construction of the railway, the car is transporting sleepers and rails, and it is not good to catch the people.

In this way, after spending a few days at the Wangye Temple, the vanguard of the Japanese army found that every other section, a section of railroad tracks was demolished, and the bridge would definitely be blown up.

Because the installation of the rails is faster, the damage to the bridge is not serious, and it is easy to repair, this time, the people on both sides of the railway did not escape, but obediently came to repair the road, there are many migrant workers, and the speed is fast.

The Japanese army advanced faster than the Binzhou line, and finally arrived at Dashizhai, but the advance speed immediately slowed down, and a large section of the roadbed was blown up, which was really not repaired.

By the time we got here, it was already late November, and the real winter had arrived.

The Japanese army also wanted to continue to build roads, and at this time, the Mongolian column struck. The Mongol columns attacked the troops transporting supplies, and one of them hit the grain convoys. It was beaten several times by the Mongolian column, and had to stop.

November 20, 1939. Binzhou Line, Xinnangou Railway Station.

The Binzhou line is the railway from Harbin to Hailar through Qiqihar. The railway passes through the main peak of the Great Khing'an Mountains, one or two miles west of the Xinnangou Railway Station.

Xinnangou Station is located at 555 kilometers and 525 meters on the Binzhou Line, and is a fifth-class small station, 14 kilometers northwest of Boketu, on the east bank of the Yalu River. Boktu has gradually developed in recent years because of the railway, and although it is not a town, the population has gradually increased.

It was a post station in the Qing Dynasty, and when the Eastern Railway was operated in 1903, it was the No. 26 station. If there is a place name between China and Russia in the treaty, the station name shall be named after the place name, and if there is no place name, the station name shall be named according to the serial number if it is not clear. Russian Railways stipulates that there should be two boarding and landing stations in the line work area between the two business stations. Therefore, Xinnangou Station is also known as No. 26 Station.

In 1906, the Russians changed the station to Beshya, which was named after a Russian. In the 1928 China Eastern Railway Incident, a Russian died near Xinnangou and was a middle-level general of the Russian army. The Russians named the station after the mid-ranking general.

In 1929, it was changed to Bijiliang Station. Bijiliang Russian means circle. Circles, are circles of circles. The railway goes west, from Boketu into the hinterland of the Xing'an Mountains and the Hulunbuir grassland, where the mountains are stacked, the terrain is dangerous, in order to make the railway pass through the mountains and mountains, the stone urn road called the Xing'an Mountains was built in Xinnangou at that time.

This section of the railway is very dangerous, it is circular, and there is an overpass for the purpose of obtaining elevation and crossing the Xing'anling line. This is the original meaning of Bijiliang.

The circular line, or spiral line, travels around the mountain for two kilometers and then enters the Xing'anling Tunnel from the east exit. The circular line is called a light bulb ring by people, so it is also called Bijiliang Station.

The Japanese army has long been aware of the importance of this place. After perceiving the intention of the Northeast Coalition to sabotage the railway, the Japanese military trains mobilized troops from the two directions of Qiqihar, Hehailar, Yakeshi, and occupied the place to prevent the destruction of the tunnel and the ring line. After more than 20 days of deployment, more than 500 people were stationed here.

In the morning, the station received a call from Botutu, who was attacked, and thousands of people attacked the station, blocking a train coming from Qiqihar.

There were two parts of the troops in this area, one part was standing guard, and the other part was a mobile force, knowing that the battle was fierce, and more than 300 people were dispatched along the path to Boktu.

At eight o'clock in the morning, reinforcements arrived in Boktu and found that the fighting here was over, and the railway station was still in the hands of the imperial army, and to understand the situation, two kilometers east of the station was blown up.

Near the Xinnangou railway station, fire was opened on the hills on both sides, and after half an hour, more than 40 people near the ring line were killed. A group of people in white cloaks began to get on the railroad and went about their work. Twenty minutes later, the retreat was gone.

The troops reinforcing Boketu returned to Xinnangou at this time. As soon as they arrived, they heard a series of explosions and thunders.

The ring line has a railway overpass, two river bridges, all blown up.

The news of the circular line bridge reached Hailar half an hour later.

Ten hours after receiving the news that these bridges had been bombed, Hailar received the news that the Daxinganling Tunnel had been bombed. Two exits from the tunnel were blown up.

The Japanese army in Hailar wanted to return to Qiqihar, but there was no hope for the railway, and there was only one way to walk. Several bridges were bombed along the way, and the idea of combining rail transport and walking did not work.

The 2,000 people stationed in Yakeshi made up their minds to set off and walked through the Daxing'an Mountains, and the 2,000 people pulled hundreds of horses and carried grain along the railway to the mountain pass.

At this time, it had already snowed, the mountains and forests were frozen, and the rivers had not yet been sealed, but the banks had frozen. The railroad was blown up in sections, some severely, and large troops had to leave the railroad to bypass.

In the Great Khing'an Mountains, minus 20 degrees during the day is not a severe cold at all, and in the afternoon, it is at the station of the free river. Someone wanted to hurry to Unur, but the brigade commander decided to camp here. Walking through the Great Khing'an Mountains was originally a risky move, and marching at night, in case of getting lost, or if there was a blizzard, the whole army would be wiped out.

The march continued the next day, and the road was much more difficult. After a day of walking, we camped at Unur Station. In the evening I received a telegram saying that there would be a heavy snowstorm the day after tomorrow and that I would return tomorrow.

At night, the devil who stayed in the carriage heard the constant gunfire outside, came out to fight back, and found that the horses on the platform of the station were scattered, and it took a lot of effort to stop only more than 200 horses, and the other horses did not know where to go.

Without horses, how can grain be transported?
