Chapter 324: Emptying Qiqihar

A few days ago, it took Li Fanglin, Zhu Yuting, and Wei Xilin three days to occupy Qiqihar. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

In the previous stage, during the attack along the railway, the railway leading to Qiqihar was blown up in dozens of places, and Qiqihar's army could only enter and exit, and the defense was empty. That's what gave them a chance to take advantage of it.

Although there were not many enemy troops in Qiqihar, there were quite a few Japanese who were armed. The Japanese military police, garrison troops, airfield guard troops, etc., all retreated back into the city, causing certain difficulties for the siege troops.

On the third day, after Wang Fa completely controlled the situation in Fularji, he personally led 2,000 people to kill Qiqihar. This new force crushed the Japanese troops defending the city.

The airfield was taken on the first day. The attack on the airfield caused Li Fanglin, Zhu Yuting, and Wei Xilin to use up all the shells and all the explosives. The remnants of the Japanese garrison withdrew to the southern camp. Because the plane took off to go to the Nomenkan battlefield, only the airport equipment and some fuel were seized.

This time, the Hung Yen Column and the Mongol Column jointly wiped out almost two thousand garrison troops.

The main force of the Japanese army in Qiqihar was the 3rd Independent Garrison. This unit had already left, and they all went to the Nomenkan front, and the southern camp was very empty, with only some garrison units of the Japanese 14th Division. There were also garrisons along the railway, which were eliminated very early.

It took three days to attack the defenders of Nanda Camp. On the third day, after Wang Fa brought in the newly captured shells, the besieging troops smashed the Nanda camp, and the fortress was breached.

The Japanese puppets had a military police corps in Qiqihar, and the 200 gendarmes of the Third Military Police Corps were wiped out after a vicious battle.

There were more than 200 police forces in Qiqihar, most of them Han Chinese, who basically surrendered, and the Japanese among them were all officials, and they resisted stubbornly for a while, but with little effect, and most of them were killed.

The puppet Manchurian Heilongjiang garrison was mixed into the first infantry brigade and stationed in the areas of Angangxi and Anda. It turned out to be the territory of the puppet army Feng Guangyou, brigade commander Feng Guangyou, and chief of staff Fan Shuxian. Later, because the anti-Japanese coalition activities in Xiaoxinganling were too strong, their troops were transferred to Tangyuan and other places and were completely annihilated. The Japanese army was ready to restore itself, and there was also a brigade headquarters here, a total of two hundred men, all of whom were captured. A puppet regiment in Angangxi was defeated at the moment, and the prisoners had been escorted to the base area by the militia.

At the same time as the southern camp was attacking, the large army had already entered the city and captured a large number of organs, and on the first day, the heads of Japan and traitors of the major organs were caught.

Some of them ran away, but there was intelligence on the underground people, and the various divisions of the troops searched and most of them were caught. For example, Wang Shaoxian, who took office as mayor of Qiqihar last year, Shinji Kazuo, a Japanese who was vice mayor of Qiqihar City, and Huang Fujun, governor of Longjiang Province, who just took office in May this year.

On the second and third days, when the Nanda Battalion was storming, the city was cleared of armed Japanese civilians and caused a large number of casualties. Among the armed Japanese civilians, there were many Japanese veterans, some of whom were Japanese spies, and many of them had combat skills. They hid in their houses, in the alleys, and behind the courtyard walls, and the cold guns continued.

The siege team paid the price of more than 300 dead and wounded to suppress the offensive of the armed Japanese. If it weren't for the inside intelligence, the losses would have been greater.

In this battle, in order to take the city as soon as possible, the troops paid the price of more than 2,000 casualties. Everyone sighed that with good weapons, there were still such large casualties, and if there were no weapons brought by the Soviet Union, the casualties would only be even greater.

After the occupation of Heqihar, just like they had occupied Harbin before, they captured the Japanese, confiscated all the Japanese property, carried the spoils of war, propagated anti-Japanese propaganda, appeased the citizens, and so on.

There are more than 300 Japanese industrial and commercial households in the urban area of Qiqihar (according to data: 321 households), and almost the vast majority of the heads of households have participated in armed resistance, which gives a good reason to confiscate their property and deprive them of their freedom.

This time, more than 100 Japanese prisoners were captured, basically all of them wounded, and more than 2,000 Japanese were caught, and these people were escorted out of Qiqihar and went to the north the day after the capture of Qiqihar.

This time, the seizure of materials was very rich. The field freight yard of the Kwantung Army, codenamed Unit 983, located in the southern camp of Qiqihar, was established after 1934. The yard is one of the important material reserves of the Japanese Kwantung Army, storing a large amount of food, clothing and other military supplies. It is the supply base of the Japanese army in Sunwu, Hailar, Arshan and other places.

Now, the function of this freight yard has become to provide baggage for the Battle of Nomenkan. In addition to the normal supplies, there are quite a few urns.

It took several days for the migrant workers to empty the yard. The freight yard seems to be a magic box, and things can't be emptied.

The Japanese army's arsenal and banks in Qiqihar, as well as the Qiqihar Broadcasting Bureau (radio station), were also the gains from the attack on the city. This time they learned the lesson of attacking Harbin and first occupied the radio station. After a night, the broadcasting equipment was dismantled and shipped away.

The anti-Japanese coalition left Qiqihar on the front foot, and the Japanese army attacked on the back foot. The Japanese occupied Qiqihar and met no resistance, they immediately crossed the river and pursued westward, but were blocked by small troops on the line from Fularji to Zhalantun. The blocking troops were well-equipped and delayed the Japanese offensive for several days.

This time, the Japanese army made up its mind and dispatched tens of thousands of troops to recapture the railway. The troops that had been gradually transferred were urgently transferred to this area, and launched an offensive in the east of Qiqihar and the southeast of Baicheng, vowing to regain control of the railway.

Fortunately, the retreat was timely, and if it was one day late, the anti-United Nations forces would have been completely annihilated.

After the evacuation of Qiqihar, according to the plan, Wei Xilin's troops, who had retreated two days in advance, moved south and opened up a base area in the Sanzhao area. The goal of this base in the future is to connect with the base area of Baichengzi. Sanzhao area refers to Zhaoyuan, Zhaozhou, Zhaodong three places, located in the northwest of the Nenjiang River, is a place with many saline-alkali lakes, very barren, the later Daqing oilfield is in the north of Zhaozhou. In recent years, it has been sparsely populated, and some of the secret bases of the original advance team are located here.

Zhu Yuting, who retreated two days in advance, went north and then went east, returning to Baiquan, Yi'an, Kedong, and Keshan Bei'an Lao Base Areas. In the past two years of development, a large number of Han people in exile have learned about the actions of the anti-Japanese coalition forces from various channels, and they have arrived one after another, and the population has increased several times compared with when the base areas were first opened. The reason for the large multiplier is that the previous population was too small.

Wang Fa Li Fanglin accepted an extremely difficult task, starting from the Fu, Nehe River, to open up a huge base area in the upper reaches of the Nenjiang River. The west bank of the Nenjiang River was in charge of Wang Fa, and Li Fanglin was in charge of the east bank.

Wang Fa, who finally retreated, crossed the river, returned to Fularji along the railway, and then blew up the bridgehead of the river bridge.

In the opinion of military observer Ivan, this force has no combat experience and cannot even blow up the bridge. In addition, this army was too poor, and only cared about attacking the city, making money, and used a lot of ammunition to attack Qiqihar.

However, Ivan was also glad that the anti-Japanese coalition forces did not blow up the bridge. Otherwise, the troops will be blocked in Qiqihar, and in that case, they will be finished.

The Soviets took advantage of this opportunity to shoot planes and bomb the bridge. Unfortunately, there are many intact Japanese airfields in the Daxinganling area, and Japanese planes are constantly intercepting them. The Soviets were not able to blow up the bridge.

Ivan followed Wang Fa's headquarters to the west, he didn't know that the more troops went, the fewer troops accompanied the headquarters, and many troops dispersed according to the plan and went to carry out their own tasks.

At the beginning, the command went west along the railway. Half of the railroad was demolished, and it was impossible to take the train. Fortunately, horseback riding is not slow. Heading south from Nianzi Mountain, it wasn't long before you arrived at the mushroom gas.

The mushroom gas was beaten down ten days ago, and there were only a few dozen forest policemen here, among which there were only a few Japanese soldiers. Today, more than 200 captives have built a row of houses and are clearing the wasteland.

Ivan said: "Brigade Commander Wang, will we live here in the future?" ”

Wang Fa said: "No. It's just a point. We can go somewhere else if we want. Because we are behind enemy lines, we can only survive with a base. Also, to tell you a secret. ”

Ivan said: "What secret? ”

Wang Fa said: "Several of our secret strongholds are distributed along the railway. If you want to move, if you want to blow up the railway, you can act right away. As long as you get the explosives, you can blast them. ”

Ivan said: "What should I do if the Japanese army comes?" ”

In the past few days, this guy finally understood that these guerrillas are not simple, and the team that survives in such a harsh environment is certainly not simple. After he saw that the other party actually won a big city, he was less proud.

Wang Fa said: "Look, there are mountains around here. I can duck into the mountains. In addition, if any army wants to go into the mountains to fight, a group of people will not be able to get here. Entering the mountains to crusade, transportation is inconvenient, and logistics supplies are needed. The Japanese army wanted to come, and the price was very high. ”

Wang Fa has an ambition. He wanted to open up a base area in the mountains.

He always thought, the captain can develop a deserted village in a ravine into a big city, a base area, why don't I try it? In the past, when studying guerrilla warfare, when the captain was talking about protracted warfare, he said that the most important thing in working behind enemy lines is to have the will of the people.

Now, he wants to reclaim some land here in Mushroom Qi, resettle displaced people, and open up a base area. Xiao Lu heard about his plan and told him that it was still possible to reclaim thousands of hectares of good land in the mushroom gas area, but it couldn't feed too many people. As for the few strongholds further west, they are basically distributed along the railway. He demanded that each stronghold be settled before the onset of winter.

He repeatedly researched and found that Zhalantun was a good place, but unfortunately there was a railway passing through it, and it was not yet a match for the Japanese. had to retreat to the mushroom gas line.

He didn't tell Ivan that there were still a lot of them, such as opening up a base in the Chai River, where the industrial base had been set up. In addition, he also sent several troops to the Arong Banner, the Xizhagar Banner, the Molidawa Banner, and the Bayan Banner. This series of layouts, together with several previous small base areas, is the layout of his base areas on the west bank of the Nenjiang River.

The trail has a grand plan in the Nenjiang area. In later generations, after the liberation, a large number of volunteers were discharged from the army, and the Sanjiang Plain was opened up here, and the grain produced fed half of China. This is agriculture. In later generations, there was a very strong heavy industry in the Qiqihar area, and the trail was planned according to this.

In order to realize this plan, the Mongolian column did a lot of work. At present, what he lacks most is talent.

Wang Fa reported all this to Yichun. A telegram that took the telegraph operator half the night to finish.
