Chapter 126: The Devil
In order to thank the book friends for the strong support of the song of rage, we will make an exception today and continue to update!
......
Major General Xiongya Shimoto of the 24th Brigade of the 12th Division of the Japanese Army led the army in close pursuit until about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The Japanese soldiers also chased after the bridge, and until they were halfway through the bridge, they suddenly found that a position had been formed on the opposite bridge.
"Da-da As soon as the Japanese army approached, the opposite side opened fire, and the dense bullets came over, which immediately made the Japanese soldiers turn on their backs, and the rest of them turned around and fled one after another.
Major General Xiong Ya also followed, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he felt that it was very unfavorable to his side, and the other party occupied one end of the bridge, and wanted to conquer the opponent's position, probably with a lot of losses.
But if the army is withdrawn now, will Major General Shimoto Kumaya be unwilling to pursue dozens of kilometers and give up like this?
In fact, judging from the firepower, the other side is very likely to be the Northern Anti-Japanese Army, not the army of Ma Zhanshan in Heilongjiang.
In accordance with the order of the Japanese Kwantung Army, Major General Kumaya Shimoto was supposed to stop military operations.
Major General Xiong Mi of Xia Yuan consciously ignored this issue, and thought that this was a Heilongjiang army.
Does the Northern Anti-Japanese Army have three heads and six arms?
Hmph, Major General Ben wants to learn a lesson today,
In the Japanese army, there are still many people like Major General Kumaya Shimomoto, and they don't cry when they don't see the coffin.
In today's situation, if it is replaced by Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, it will be much more cautious.
The 24th Brigade immediately organized the army to launch an attack, but such an attack was very unfavorable to the Japanese army, the formation on the bridge deck could not be spread, and the strong firepower of the opponent caused a huge casualty rate for the Japanese army.
In several attacks, the 24th Brigade suffered hundreds of casualties, and under such conditions, the 24th Brigade and Regiment really suffered a loss, and its strength could not be unleashed.
Major General Xiong Ya Xia has a headache, such a strong attack, the army's losses will be very large, and it is not a good way to continue the attack, what should I do?
Suddenly, Major General Kumaya Shimoto noticed some sleepers scattered along the railway line.
Obviously, these sleepers were left out by the demolition of the railway.
Yes, use these sleepers to make cover, let the soldiers push the sleepers and slowly move forward, with these sleepers as cover, they will definitely be able to break through the opponent's position.
Major General Xiong Ya felt that he was too smart, and he was so impressed that he could come up with such a good method.
What is a genius, Xia Yuan Xiong Mi is also!
Major General Kumaya Shimomoto made a quick decision, ordered the army to collect sleepers, and then attacked again.
At this time, it was winter, and the river had already frozen, and the thick ice of the Nenjiang River was enough to bear the weight of the soldiers' bodies.
Major General Kumaya Shimomoto ordered the troops of the 24th Brigade to attack together from the bridge deck and the ice under the bridge.
Sure enough, the effect was quite good, there was a bunker made of sleepers, protecting a large group of Japanese troops, slowly advancing along the bridge deck, and the Japanese soldiers were firing at the resistance as they advanced.
The same method was taken on the river, where the soldiers pushed the sleepers forward to attack. The river was already frozen, and it was not very difficult to push the sleepers forward.
The sleepers must be heightened and alternately forwarded, which requires a large number of sleepers.
The two brigades of Japanese troops attacked on the bridge and under the bridge respectively, and there were many Japanese troops under the bridge to collect sleepers and send them forward to the attacking Japanese troops.
The Japanese army had advanced to a distance of only about 200 meters from the bridgehead, and Major General Kumaya Shimomoto, who had been observing, had a feeling that victory was in sight.
It's a pity that Feng Zhanhai doesn't want to play with him anymore, because in another few hours, it will be dark, and this game should be over.
"Order the bridgehead position to retreat, and the second line of positions on the shore to implement fire cover."
"Yes, resolutely carry out the order."
"Dada-da--da-da-
The 13th Brigade, which was still blocking the Japanese army at the bridgehead, received the order, and fierce fire immediately broke out on the position, suppressing the Japanese army and continuing to advance, and then, while the little devil soldiers did not dare to raise their heads, quickly withdrew.
The Japanese soldiers, who were dodging the bullets, suddenly found that the resistance on the opposite side had run away, and the little devils suddenly became excited, and shouted: "Onboard!" A swarm rushed forward.
"Dada-da--da-da-
Gunfire suddenly erupted, and the little Japanese devils who were chasing were shot and fell to the ground.
Before the Japanese army could rush to the bridgehead, they were blocked by a position forty or fifty meters away from the bridgehead, and there was a burst of fierce fire, and the remaining little devils pounced on the bridge deck.
At this time, the strength of the two Japanese brigades was all stranded on and under the bridge, and many Japanese troops were also concentrated on the shore on the opposite bank, which was reasonable in number.
The time has come, Feng Zhanhai shouted: "Detonate ......"
Only a loud "......boom" was heard, and the entire bridge rose into the air in the explosion, flying into the sky along with the Japanese soldiers on the bridge deck.
Then, the stump and severed arm fell from the sky, which made the living Japanese soldiers observe a rain of human flesh.
Not only was the railway bridge blown up by the resistance, but the northern anti-Japanese army planted explosives on the ice under the bridge and within tens of meters on the opposite bank.
The ice on the surface of the river was blown apart, forming a huge column of water, and the icy water was churning, and even if the Japanese soldiers were not killed, it would be difficult to survive if they fell into the river this season.
Major General Shimoto Kumaya was lucky, his position was relatively backward, outside the explosion range, so the fierce explosion was not affected by Major General Shimoto Kumaya.
At this point, this guy is standing there a little silly.
The bridge is gone, the armies of the two brigades are gone......
I stood there stunned for a long time before this guy came to his senses, Bag, my army is finished, and almost all of my wings have been killed in this explosion.
"Devils, it's just a group of devils, they plant explosives everywhere, and they don't even let go of the bridge......"
Major General Shimoto Xiongmi's heart was very hurt, and his voice was a little sad.
In the end, only he knows whether the mourning bridge is gone, or whether he is mourning that his army is gone.
This time the pursuit of the resistance forces, not only did he not have a record, but he lost his troops, do you think he can be in a good mood?
In this pursuit, Major General Shimoto Kumaya always believed that the fleeing army must be the department of Ma Zhanshan in Heilongjiang, and it was only for fear of being caught up by the Imperial Japanese army that he sent a small force of troops to ambush him, while delaying the pursuit.
The two sides are at war, so why blow up the bridge?
Everyone needs a bridge, but don't the resistance forces need a bridge to cross the river?
He didn't expect that the resistance force would be so cunning and insidious, and such a perfect railway bridge would also be blown up, so that Major General Shimoto Xiongya would lose nearly a wing of troops in vain.
Where does a bridge go?
Fengtian destroys a big city, and he doesn't even blink his eyes, and a bridge is much less valuable than a city.
As long as the Japanese devils can be eliminated, Feng Tiancai doesn't care about destruction, what he catches and what he bombs.
Major General Xiong Mi of Xia Yuan was extremely frustrated, this pursuit, the labor division moved the crowd not to say, did not establish a little meritorious service, but lost the army.
Looking at the other side again, the Northern Anti-Japanese Army that was still on the other side just now is now gone, and it is probably long gone.
This time the pursuit could only end here, the ice on the river had been blown up, and if you wanted to cross the river, you had to find another way upstream. The bridge is gone.
Besides, there are not many remaining troops in the 24th Brigade, and Major General Xiong Mi Xia Yuan does not dare to act rashly, so he can only go home.
Of course, this is just a bridge, and the bridge to Tongliao is still there.
Looking at the sky, Major General Xiong Mi of Xia Yuan could only sigh and return to Qiqihar.
When he came back, it was already late, and Major General Kumiya Shimoto dragged his tired body to see the commander of Kihara Kihara's Qing Division.
"Report to the division commander, when our unit was attacking the resistance forces, the resistance forces actually planted explosives on the bridge, and the headquarters of the 24th Brigade lost a complete wing of troops. According to the observation of the humble position, this time it was a trap set by the Northern Anti-Japanese Army, which was intended to eliminate our military strength. ā
"Nani, planted explosives on the bridge? It turned out that it was done by the Northern Anti-Japanese Army again, and the strength of a whole wing. ā
When Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, commander of the 12th Division, heard the report, he could not believe his ears that the northern resistance had planted explosives on the bridge, even causing casualties to a wing of the Imperial Japanese Army.
These resistance forces are almost a bunch of crazy people, there is nothing that is not bombed, and good railway bridges are destroyed.
The commander of the 12th Division, Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, had a hideous expression on his face, a pair of small triangular eyes, and a pair of trembling muscles on his face, which was very terrifying.
This guy is probably a little nervous from the northern resistance, and he can't slow down for a long time.
I really can't complain about Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi being scared, that Fengtian is extremely cunning, and the methods are too insidious, so that the Imperial Japanese army can't guard against it.
Chilled by the cold night wind, the head of Kihara Kiyoshi came back from his stunned.
"Bagyale, I'm going to end up with a wing? Yike...... Kill a twitter......"
Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, commander of the 12th Division, pulled out his sword, slashed indiscriminately, and vented his anger in his heart with his clothes.
Disaster, before the real battle with the northern resistance, the 12th Division had already lost a wing of troops, which was very heart-wrenching for the commander of Kihara Kiyoshi's division.
The commander of the angry 12th Division, Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, was a little hysterical and shouted: "Send a report, send a report to the Kwantung Army Headquarters, quickly drop." ā
The 12th Division of the Japanese Army and the Northern Anti-Japanese Army have not yet fought head-on, but they have lost a wing first, and Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi is really a little difficult to explain.
But the tragedy had already happened, and it had to be reported in detail to the Kwantung Army command.
The head of Kihara Kiyoshi personally drafted and listed the causes and consequences one by one, for fear of missing something.
In fact, this guy knew that he could not get rid of it, and His Majesty the Emperor, the Japanese Military Department, and the Kwantung Army Command issued orders one by one to be cautious in engaging the northern resistance.
That's why, when he was in Harbin, Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi asked the surrendered Northeast Army to go to war with him.
Originally, the loss of the strength of a wing was not very much.
However, before that, the Japanese army had already had four divisions destroyed by the northern resistance, and no matter what method the other side adopted, the losing side was always the Japanese army, and its losses were undoubtedly very large.
Moreover, the time is short, the losses are serious, and it is also outrageous, and it has only been a few months since the September 18 incident.
The Japanese War Department has successively issued major orders not to take the initiative to engage the anti-Japanese army in the north. If it had to be engaged, it had to be done with the permission of the War Office, and a sufficient number of troops had to be used.
In a word, the Japanese army must have absolute superiority, and it must ensure that it cannot be defeated, still less that it cannot lose its troops.
And the commander of the 12th Division, Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, was already very careful, no matter how careful he was, no matter how precautionary he was, in the end it would be useless.
Now the strength of another wing has perished, which is really speechless.
Since the 918 Incident, the Japanese Empire has lost four of the 17 first-class divisions, and now only 13 first-class divisions remain.
There were not many first-class divisions left in the Imperial Japan, and these troops were precious to the Great Japanese Empire.
Soon, the Kwantung Army Command received a telegram from the commander of the 12th Division, Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, that the matter was too big for the staff to dare to delay, and immediately woke up the commander Hayashi Mijuro.
The Kwantung Army's Lin Mijuro was stunned by the telegram in front of him, Nani, why was he plotted by the northern resistance again?
Headache, the Kwantung Army lost troops one after another at the hands of the northern resistance forces, and the key was that it was always framed by the intrigues and tricks of the northern anti-Japanese army, and it was not the so-called frontal war at all.
"Fengtian, you devil and butcher, I will kill you!!"
That night, a beastly roar was heard from inside the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army, and the echo lingered in the night sky for a long time.
There are only thirteen first-class divisions left in the Great Japanese Empire, which is really unaffordable, and now there is one less wing, do you say that the commander of the Kwantung Army, Hayashi Mijuro, can not feel distressed?
After the venting was over, the Kwantung Army Headquarters Hayashi Mijuro had to reprimand Lieutenant General Kihara Kiyoshi, the commander of the 12th Division.
Forced into desperation, the Japanese Kwantung Army Command once again issued an order to inform the whole army not to engage the Northern Anti-Japanese Army as much as possible, and to be cautious in the case of having to engage in battle, so as not to fall for their tricks again.
Moreover, once again, it is emphasized that for a long time to come, the main targets of the Imperial Japanese Army will be Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army and the Nationalist Government Army.
As for the northern resistance forces, they must first be let go, and the Japanese army should try to minimize friction with them, let alone take the initiative to attack.
In view of the inconvenient transportation in the area north of Harbin, the supply lines were too long, and the logistics were difficult to ensure the supply of the army, the Japanese military headquarters ordered the Kwantung Army to keep only a few troops in this area, and the rest of the troops to retreat.
There was also no way to do this, and the Kwantung Army Command believed that friction with the anti-Japanese army in the north should be minimized.
If the Imperial Japanese Army deployed too many troops in Heilongjiang, it would inevitably engage in a large-scale battle with the anti-Japanese army in the north.
Qiqihar left only one brigade and part of the puppet army, while Harbin retained a wing, and the rest of the Japanese army all retreated to Jilin.
The Japanese army has suffered a lot of losses under the hands of the Northern Anti-Japanese Army, and it is only now that it has a long memory, and its head is a little dull.
In the entire Japanese army, there may be many troops who are afraid that they will be unlucky and will run into the armed force of the Northern Anti-Japanese Army, and it is best to hide far away, it is too terrible, it is really impossible to prevent it.
Of course, there is no shortage of troops who want to compete with the anti-Japanese army in the north. (To be continued.) )
