At 8 o'clock in the evening, the radio stations in Shenyang City were broadcasting the news of the liberation of Shenyang by the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Coalition Army. Immediately afterwards, the radio broadcast an order of General Liu Yimin, commander-in-chief of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Coalition Army, to abolish the puppet Manchurian Fengtian Province, restore the division of Liaoning Province of the Republic of China, change Fengtian City to Shenyang City, change the South Manchurian Railway to Shenyang-Dalian Railway, change Kwantung Prefecture to Dalian City, and return to the Liaoning Provincial System.

Immediately afterwards, General Cheng Cuilin, the new secretary of the Dalian Municipal Party Committee, mayor and commander of the Liaoning Garrison District, and political commissar, issued an announcement and announced the city in the form of a notice.

This proclamation was talked about by many old Shenyang people in later generations. Because this proclamation is concise and full of encouragement, it was written by General Liu Yimin, the secretary of the Northeast Bureau and the commander-in-chief of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Coalition Army, and issued in the name of Cheng Cuilin.

The proclamation reads: "Dear Shenyang compatriots: The Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Coalition Army has liberated Shenyang today, and the history of the Japanese invaders occupying Shenyang and enslaving the people of Shenyang is gone forever!

I accepted the appointment of General Liu Yimin, commander-in-chief of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Coalition Army, as mayor of Shenyang, and concurrently served as the secretary of the Shenyang Municipal Party Committee and the commander and political commissar of the Shenyang Garrison District. The term of office of the mayor shall be from now until the people of Shenyang elect the main Senate of the Shenyang Anti-Japanese People's Congress and the new mayor.

During my tenure as mayor, I strictly implemented the policies of the General Headquarters of the People's Anti-Japanese Coalition Forces of China and Northeast China to protect industry and commerce, develop the economy, improve people's livelihood, and unite in the War of Resistance. It is necessary to protect the people's rights of the people of Shenyang, such as their freedom to speak, to engage in business, to reside, to marry, and to participate in and discuss politics and supervise by public opinion, so as to develop Shenyang's economy, maintain market order, and maintain social order. All schools in Shenyang are in normal classes, hospitals are open normally, shops are open normally, and factories are in normal production, and we will resolutely crack down on all illegal traders who raise prices, hoard people, and make a fortune in the country. Crack down on all acts of sabotage that spread rumors and create chaos on behalf of the Japanese!

On behalf of the Shenyang Municipal People's Government, I declare that all Japanese counterfeit assets will be confiscated and owned by the people, traitors will be punished according to law, and all false officials will report to the municipal government for the record and be examined! All overseas Japanese should peacefully accept the management of the garrison, be examined and screened, and those who are allowed to undergo labor reform, participate in aggression, and commit crimes. All will be heard and judged by the soon-to-be-established Shenyang People's Court!

Encourage, mobilize, and organize the people of Shenyang to rise up to resist the war, and support the Northeast people's anti-Japanese main coalition army in the war against Japan. Shenyang should become a military industrial base, a material supply base, and a soldier training reserve base to support the Northeast War of Resistance!

The new Shenyang will surely become a metropolis that attracts attention in Asia and even the world! ”

Along with Mayor Cheng Cuilin's notice, all kinds of propaganda slogans were posted. There are those who urge the puppet officials to report to the city government for registration, those who urge the Japanese puppet stragglers to surrender their guns, those who call on industry and commerce to produce at full capacity to support the war, and those who mobilize the families of the officers and men of the puppet Manchurians to mobilize their relatives to revolt anyway. The most agitative slogan was the one for mobilization into the army, which read: "Do you want to kill the devil for revenge?" Do you want to settle accounts with the traitors who bullied your relatives? Do you want to be a hero for generations? Sign up for the army! One person joins the army, and the whole family is glorious! ”

On the streets of Shenyang, the cadres and fighters of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Coalition Army were doing propaganda. A support factory team and road protection team were organized to maintain public order in the city, and the Japanese puppet stragglers, traitors, and spies who had slipped through the net were arrested, including the burial team, and some people were also mobilized from the Japanese prisoners and overseas Japanese to help collect and transport the corpses of the Japanese puppet soldiers and send them for cremation or burial.

At this time, Liu Yimin was still busy working in the Daqing Building of the Marshal's Mansion!

It's late March, and the ground in Shenyang is still heating in the city because of the cold spring, and the bulky heating bag in the Daqing Building of the Dashuai Mansion is still steaming.

Liu Yimin acted with Yizhong. There is only one battalion of guards of Li Xiaoshuai and Hu Changbao. When entering Shenyang City in the afternoon, Liu Yimin ordered Li Xiaoshuai and Hu Changbao to command a battalion to plunge out the remnants of the enemy, and Liu Yimin only left a guard squad by his side. At this time, the purging of the remnants of the enemy in the city was nearing completion, and Cheng Cuilin, who was in charge of the garrison task in Shenyang, urgently ordered Li Xiaoshuai and Hu Changbao to send a company of guards back to the general headquarters to undertake the guard task. As for the second and third companies and fire support companies of the first guard battalion, they were all transferred by Cheng Cuilin, and he had few troops at hand. Shenyang is so big, if you can catch a force, it is a force.

In front of the Marshal's Mansion stood a sentry wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army, and the compound was even more guarded. Heavily guarded.

Chen Tong led the field hospital of the military region to follow Luo Ronghuan and them, and after Ni Hua entered Shenyang, he took Han Qing and Jing'er to a field hospital to help and operate on the wounded. Although it was a sneak attack, although the fight went smoothly, the Japanese army was not a vegetarian, including all squadrons of the Special Operations Command, there were casualties, not to mention the column of the field troops. Fortunately, the current Liu Yimin Department has sound medical facilities and sufficient medicines, not to mention the lightly wounded, even the seriously injured, with Ni Hua and the US medical team aiding China, they can also get timely surgical treatment.

Zhao Xiaoman went with the Political Department of the First Column to engage in propaganda, Wang Pengju and Huang Wei, the heads of the Propaganda Section of the Political Department, were busy accepting the Japanese pseudo-radio stations and newspapers in Shenyang, and Liu Yimin was left with only Qian Zhuangfei, He Xinghua, ** Feng, Zhu Zhexiao and a few other assistants in charge of staff officers and confidentiality. In addition, there is Tang Xiu'er who takes Liu Yimin wherever she goes, at this moment, although this girl is standing outside the door of Liu Yimin's tiger hall in the uniform of the Eighth Route Army, her face is cold, and no one knows what she is thinking.

Liu Yimin has not stopped since he entered the Daqing Building, and after sending the telegram, he gave orders to the troops, and then sent a report to Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong, urging them to speed up their journey, and the troops will be victorious when they arrive early. The situation in Liaoning is so good, and the opportunity is rare.

At this time, Gao Yuan, Li Lingfeng, and Zhou Yi led a column of main forces to set off, and the general attack in the direction of Jinzhou was about to begin.

According to the Jinzhou area, the Fifth Independent Garrison of the Kwantung Defense Army of the Japanese Army and the Jinzhou Regional Garrison Command of the Fifth Military Region of the Puppet Manchurian Army were guarded, and the 24th and 25th Brigades were mixed under their jurisdiction, with a total strength of quite a few troops. It's just that our army suddenly appeared in the Jinzhou area, and the Japanese puppet army did not have time to shrink its forces, and was in a state of dispersion, and the strongholds in the peripheral areas were broken by our army. Originally, the Second and Sixth Columns could have entered Jinzhou City in one go before dark, but in the afternoon, the planes of the Third Flying Group of the Japanese North China Front rushed to the skies over Jinzhou, searching, reconnoitring, and bombing indiscriminately.

The Second Column is the three main columns of Liu Yimin's Department and the First Column and the Third Column, and the Sixth Column is also the old main force, and this battle is also an opportunity to test the combat effectiveness of the Second Column and the Sixth Column after the expansion and training, and Liu Yimin attaches great importance to it.

Liu Jianli's deployment was remarkable, forming a pincer attack on Jinzhou. The enemy of Jinzhou is a lone army, and this battle should be said to be not very suspenseful. However, considering that the Fifth Independent Garrison of the Japanese Army was an old unit established after the September 18 Incident, with a large number of veterans, strong combat effectiveness, and well-trained puppet Manchurian troops, Liu Yimin instructed Qian Zhuangfei to send a telegram to Liu Jianli, and it was necessary to concentrate the use of the two artillery regiments of the Second Column and the Sixth Column, attack one point, and break through the city defense. Don't worry that the Japanese puppet army may fall into the night to cover and escape, what our army wants is for the Japanese puppet army to abandon the city and flee at night, and annihilate the enemy in the field. In addition, Liu Yimin asked Qian Zhuangfei to tell Liu Jianli that he must organize an iron horn to shout and spread the news that our army captured Shenyang, Dalian, and Lushun and killed the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Umezu Mijiro, the chief of staff, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto Sadachi, and the commander of the Kwantung Defense Army, Lieutenant General Yasui Toji, to shake the Japanese puppet army's determination to defend the city, encourage the puppet Manchu army to revolt in front of the formation, and kill the enemy to make meritorious contributions!

Thinking about it, he still felt that there was something to do, so Liu Yimin asked Qian Zhuangfei to use the radio password of the Japanese army to send a report to the commander of the Jinzhou garrison and the infantry brigades, disguise the fleeing officers of the Kwantung Army Headquarters and the Kwantung Defense Army Headquarters, and inform the Jinzhou Japanese puppet army of the battlefield situation, asking them to decide whether to defend or retreat.

It was only when Liu Jianli sent a telegram reporting that the general offensive was about to begin that Liu Yimin took his eyes off the map, returned to the table, sat down, and wrote a "Letter to the People of Northeast China".

The "Letter to the People of Northeast China" is tantamount to a declaration of our army's march into the northeast.

Liu Yimin wrote in the "Letter to the People of Northeast China": "Fathers and fellow villagers in Northeast China: Since Tsarist Russia invaded Northeast China, Northeast China has become a military training ground for the Japanese and Russian invaders, and the Japanese and Russian invading armies have built railways and factories on the land of Northeast China, plundered our resources, invaded our land, killed our people, and bullied our women. After the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese invaders invaded and occupied the Dalian and Lushun regions of our country, and established subordinate areas along the South Manchurian Railway to create a country within a country. After the outbreak of the September 18 Incident, the Japanese army invaded the northeast in an all-out way, and the Northeast Army implemented a policy of non-resistance and withdrew from the northeast. The people of Northeast China are not willing to be invaded, dominated, and enslaved, and they rise up to fight, setting off one after another anti-Japanese movement, the anti-Japanese volunteers and the Anti-Japanese Federation have fought between the white mountains and black waters, and their heroic spirit weeps heaven and earth, feels ghosts and gods, and shines with the sun and the moon. ”

Liu Yimin turned his pen and began to write that our army's march into the northeast was to completely eliminate the Japanese puppet army, recover the fallen land, and liberate the people of the northeast. Wherever the army goes, it will unite and mobilize the people of Northeast China to fight the people's war and bury the invaders completely!
