Chapter 648: Commander Yang is dismissed, and Shenyang riots

October 9, 1943. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Ulaanbaatar.

What are the senior generals in the Northeast doing? No one knows, but one or two can be analyzed through the itinerary of several famous high-ranking generals. Yang Jingyu was replaced, Zhou Baozhong was nowhere to be found, and he didn't know what was going on.

And Zhao Shangzhi is in Outer Mongolia. It is said that his troops fought against the Japanese army in Outer Mongolia and suffered huge losses.

At this time, Zhao Shangzhi seemed to be saying to the outside world that his troops were very good. He held a grand military parade in Ulaanbaatar. What kind of military parade is this New Year's holiday?

Zhao Shangzhi led a group of high-ranking officers of the Northeast Coalition Army to inspect the barracks and held a grand military parade. On the viewing platform were local cadres and people, as well as Soviet officers. The accompanying reporters from the Northeast Daily and the photographers of the film factory also followed suit.

Some reporters also came to Chongqing, and some Soviet and American reporters also reported on the spot.

Before the military parade began, Zhao Shangzhi delivered a speech entitled "Actively Prepare to Fight to the Urals, Sweep Europe, and Eliminate the German Nazis," encouraging everyone to train their elite soldiers, actively prepare for war, and always be ready to fight in Europe, assist the great Soviet people, eliminate the Nazis, and liberate all mankind.

Then, the parade began.

More than a dozen infantry and cavalry platoons walked past the review stand, 24 tanks lined up, troop carriers, artillery trucks pulled by automobiles, and medical vehicles, all of which walked past the rostrum. Its pace was as neat as the German army.

Except for Zhao Shangzhi, who was calm and relaxed, the other senior generals were a little nervous, and the officers saluted as the new tank squad walked by. Zhao Shangzhi saw that all his attention was attracted by the tank formation, and whispered to the left and right generals: "Be mental, what are you panicking about." Just salute! ā€

After the parade, a simple press conference was held. A reporter asked: "It is said that there is a spread of plague in your army, please confirm it." ā€

The press officer said, "No. This is the outrageous rumor of a counter-revolutionary walk. I declare that I am only responsible for publishing the news and not for answering questions from journalists. End of press conference! ā€

Journalists sent back press releases. A press release from a Chongqing newspaper said: Although the Outer Mongolian army said that it would come to the aid of the Soviet Union, in fact, there seemed to be a problem with their combat effectiveness. There are many rumors of plague epidemics in the army, and the press officers have a poor way of avoiding it, which is clearly a sign of their problem.

October 9, 1943. Jinzhou.

Because of the battle on the front line in Jinzhou, many reporters interviewed in Jinzhou. I don't know who heard that Yang Jingyu, the commander-in-chief of the campaign who had just been dismissed, was leaving the headquarters and taking a plane back to Shenyang. The reporters were waiting at the door of the headquarters.

The news is really accurate, as soon as the door opened, Yang Jingyu's tall figure appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Reporters took pictures.

A reporter asked: "Commander Yang, may I ask you how you feel about being dismissed?" ā€

A reporter from the two sides asked, "Commander Yang, it seems that you are not depressed. The Japanese are about to hit Jinzhou, don't you think you are responsible? ā€

Yang Jingyu stopped suddenly, looked at the reporter, clenched his fists, and said, "Who said that the Japanese are going to Jinzhou?" With the officers and men of our Northeast Coalition Army in one breath, the Japanese will not want to cross our battle line! ā€

Without looking back, he strode towards the car, got in the car and left. Although Commander Yang was not angry, many reporters felt the huge aura emanating from him and automatically gave way to him.

The reporters captured the moment of his speech.

October 9, 1943. Shenyang.

On the day the war began, Xiaolu wrote a report summarizing the situation in the Outer Northeast, which is now relatively firmly controlled by the Chinese.

In addition, Xiaolu also wrote a report on the progress and difficulties of the secret weapon.

On the second day of the campaign, the report was delivered to Yan'an by plane. Yan'an soon held a meeting to discuss it, and called back to express his affirmation of his work, ordering him to leave Vladivostok in Northeast China and return to Harbin to continue to preside over the work of the Northeast Bureau.

Xiaolu did not return to Harbin, but went to Shenyang and personally commanded the battle.

For some time now, the situation in Shenyang has been unstable, with an undercurrent surging, and people from three religions and nine streams secretly connecting in the underground. At the same time, rumors spread in Shenyang, and all kinds of rumors that were unfavorable to the Northeast Coalition Army were rampant, and even some people who were closely connected with the Northeast Coalition Army were worried that the situation was about to turn around.

There are also some Japanese in Shenyang, who ostensibly cooperate with the new government in Northeast China, but secretly they are more active than anyone else. When Shenyang was liberated, for the sake of the city's management and social stability, all the Japanese were not captured as before, but treated them as foreign civilians.

Many of these people are managers and technicians in various factories, and moving them in a short period of time will affect industrial production. This is the main consideration of the authorities in the Northeast.

Of course, these people were not convinced, and they were very honest when the Northeast Coalition Army was in the Northeast. Now that the large army has left, it is inevitable that a large army will overwhelm the territory, and these people have begun to move. Some time ago, the personnel sent by Chongqing contacted them, promised benefits, and quickly won over these people.

The situation has been brewing to this day, and these people have finally acted. They began to riot.

Armed rebellions broke out simultaneously in dozens of neighborhoods in the city of Shenyang.

Some thugs resorted to assassination, placing black guns on roads, markets, and corners to assassinate cadres and fighters who acted alone. A total of dozens of cadres and fighters were killed and wounded.

The most serious was a mob that chained several grenades together and threw them at the moving car from the upper floors next to it, and the wheels of the car in which the director of public security, Zhao Haohua, and the deputy director of the bureau, Zhang Huadong, were riding, were blown up

In the afternoon, dozens of rioters took to the streets with weapons to storm the government.

Among them, it was the "iron-blooded gang" that attacked the Shenyang Municipal Government and the Military Commission.

The government has a guard unit of more than 100 people, and the guard unit is all good soldiers, and it is also equipped with a special combat team, with good weapons, machine gun strafing, rifle sniping, and fighting for more than three hours, nearly 200 of the attacking hoe gang died, and the remaining dozens of people ran away.

During the night, the iron-blooded gangsters poured out in several ways and surrounded the Heping District Public Security Bureau, which was located at the intersection of Zhonghua Road and Nanjing Road. Armed with knives, wooden sticks, iron rods, and some with long and short guns, the rioters blocked the surrounding intersections, and set up one heavy machine gun and two light machine guns in front of the station.

The thugs screamed wildly: "Come out and surrender", "Hurry up and hand over the public security bureau", "If you don't surrender, you will chop them into meat tonight!" ā€

There was a lot of Japanese mixed with the scolding.

Dozens of thugs in front of them wrapped their heads around white scarves with the words "death squad" written on them, and under the cover of machine guns, they frantically rushed to the gate of the substation with guns. The sound of gunshots, shouts, and wind stirred up, piercing the silence of the cold night.

The sub-director's name is Cheng Qiang, who is the eighth road in Shandong and has been on the battlefield for a long time. He ordered the soldiers: quickly close the iron gates, drop the iron windows, resolutely hold on, and repel the enemy. Dozens of people from the public security squad of the sub-bureau focused on guarding the prison closely, condescendingly and arranged a tight line of defense.

Cheng Qiang gave an order, and the gunfire rang out, and the thugs of the "death squad" fell under the doorstep of the sub-bureau one after another, and the thugs behind them immediately became chaotic.

The thugs roared and rushed to the back door. Machine guns had already been set up on the turrets in the corners of the walls on both sides of the back door of the substation, and at the sound of an order, the thugs threw down a piece of corpse and ran to the front door screaming. In this way, the enemy was outnumbered, and the continuous attacks were carried out, and our buildings were solidly built, and the public security sub-bureau had sufficient ammunition, and the situation was stalemate.

At one o'clock in the middle of the night, the armed public security forces, led by Captain Wang Jian, arrived and surrounded the gangsters from several streets, shooting all but a dozen who surrendered. The bodies were transported out of the city overnight.

On the 14th, the military management of the whole city of Shenyang searched for those who slipped through the net. By noon, more than a thousand more people had been arrested.

In the afternoon, the Shenyang City Government telegraphed the whole country, and the Japanese spies in Shenyang City cooperated with the Japanese army in the battle, created a rebellion in Shenyang City, shot and killed cadres and soldiers, and shot and killed capitalist businessmen and businessmen, all of whom were annihilated by the police force. At the moment, the leader of the traitor organization is being arrested.

In addition, it was announced that the leader of the traitor organization was called Qi Juesheng, who was an instructor at the Shenyang Puppet Manchurian Police School. After the recovery of Shenyang, he sneaked underground, pulled out his police students, and organized them all into members of the "iron-blooded hoe gang" to engage in assassination activities. The regiment was divided into six groups, and the leaders of the group were all backbone spies of the special high-tech section of the puppet Manchurian Police Department. Chen Weilie, the leader of the sixth group, was captured, and Qi Juesheng and others were fleeing

There was also a "Three Youth League Action Committee" headed by Wang Shushu, a puppet Manchurian officer, who was under the banner of the Three Youth Leagues and accepted the command of the Japanese, and now all of them have been arrested.

In fact, the news release is personally reviewed and checked by Xiaolu.

These rebels heard that the war in southern Liaoning was not going well, so they started it.

Almost all of the rebels were people with puppet backgrounds, and almost all of them were drawn closer to the organization by people from Chongqing. Interrogated overnight, the organization of the people sent in by the Kuomintang was already clear.

One is headed by Luo Dayu, called the "Northeast Party Commissioner's Office". The other is headed by Li Guangchen and is called the "Liaoning Provincial Party Department." The two organizations were somewhat at odds, and in order to gain the lead and take the lead, after setting up their stalls, they each flaunted themselves as "orthodox," exposed each other's shortcomings and dismantled each other, and competed to expand their sphere of influence in Shenyang and even in the northeast, and there was one internal strife after another.

Li Guangchen was released from a Japanese prison when he recovered Shenyang. At the beginning, the Shenyang Military Management Committee of the Northeast Coalition Army also invited him to dinner and subsidized his life. Soon after he was released from prison, he resumed contact with Chongqing and began his activities.

Luo Dayu studied in Japan and participated in anti-Japanese organizations.

In addition, most of the participants in the rebellion were puppet soldiers and puppet police, hooligans and ruffians.

In order to grasp the policy, Xiaolu couldn't deal with the pseudo-police at will, and asked them to continue to be police officers and be familiar with the local society, as long as there was no crime, they could be retained. What's more, there are some underground parties that are policemen, and their identities have not yet been made public in order to investigate spies. Now is the right time to take advantage of this opportunity to clean. In addition, many of the people who are puppeteers have not been dealt with. This time there was just an opportunity to clean it up a lot.
