Less than a minute later, a forest policeman with a cigarette in his hand arrived at the gate of the fort and asked the Japanese sentry for matches to smoke, and suddenly, a dagger appeared in his hand, which cut the throat of the Japanese at once. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It turned out that this team of forest police was an anti-Japanese force! What a surprise!

I swear, it's the most brutal murder I've ever seen. Thankfully, they are my allies.

At this time, a few shots rang out in the fortress, a piece of clothing stretched out of the window, and after a few shakes, Brigade Commander Wang said to me: "The battle is over. Let's go. ”

When I got to the railway, I saw some soldiers taking off the clothes of the Japanese and dragging the bodies up the hill. Then they put on Japanese clothes and, like the Japanese, began to defend the fortress.

More than two dozen captives were stripped of their clothes, put on the clothes of the people, and sent away.

Brigade Commander Wang told me that there was the same fortress at the other exit of the tunnel, and it was taken down in the same way.

Later, I talked to Brigade Commander Wang and asked him why he didn't inform me of the battle plan in advance. Brigade Commander Wang said that our situation was different and did not correspond to the fighting style of the Soviet army. The Soviet army was a great army, suitable for modern operations, and this was unconventional operations. He also said that he would report later.

These Chinese units were funny, able to disguise themselves as enemies, deceive the Japanese, and turn a difficult battle into a simple attack. I learned that in addition to a small unit, the anti-Japanese coalition attacked a forest police unit on the west bank, and then wore the clothes of the forest police to deceive the Japanese and give them wine and food. A surprise attack on the Japanese without the Japanese being caught off guard was soon victorious.

Strangely, I saw Brigade Commander Wang in the fort that his men were actually communicating with the Japanese in very good Japanese.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, a large force intercepted a train from Baicheng, which was loaded with fuel and escorted by more than 100 Japanese soldiers.

The interception of the train was still a deception tactic.

The king's men were still dressed in the clothes of the forest policemen, and a group of people put on the clothes of the Japanese, and a group of people began to repair the railway. Twenty minutes before the arrival of the Japanese train, they knew that the Japanese train was coming. I analyze that it is telegram.

The train came, and they signaled the Japanese to stop, saying that there was an emergency ahead.

The Japanese on the train got out of the train, and he was upset and yelled. When I understood the situation, I was very relaxed.

So the scene of being deceived was played out again, and the king's people even went to the train to deliver food.

The Japanese gathered in front of the fortress gate, and they were all happy because the fort took out food. At this time, hundreds of people suddenly appeared around, and those who repaired locomotives and railways next to them all took out their guns.

Only a few of these Japanese fired and were quickly killed. I could see that several of them had been killed by the sniper rifles we had just provided, and that a dozen of them had been killed in one round. The other Japanese wanted to fight with bayonets, but Wang's warriors seemed to be more powerful, simply murderous weapons. Soon, more than half of the Japanese soldiers were captured alive.

The stuffy tank train was full of oil drums. My suggestion was to burn the oil immediately, and that would destroy this section of the railway completely. However, the king did not want to burn, and in less than ten minutes the people came again, and together with their soldiers, they took out the oil in the cart and began to carry it into the mountains.

June 22, 1939, night, South Hung Yen Tunnel, Northeast Fortress.

This morning, after dawn, the Japanese dispatched two planes to reconnoiter the railway. The tunnel is still in our hands. When I woke up in the morning, I saw that although the tunnel was intact, the railroad tracks were gone.

These Chinese are so capable that their militia is said to have not slept all night. It is said that they were paid only a few pints of grain.

Commander Wang didn't sleep much. He informed me that last night his troops had attacked several stations to the east and west of the tunnel and had captured several trains. The train was full of fuel. According to intelligence, there will be a train coming today, and on the train are soldiers, soldiers from Manchukuo, and the number is the Xing'an Division of Manchukuo. Their troops were to capture the soldiers at the easternmost railway station.

I asked them, why did you capture these Manchurian soldiers? Wouldn't it be easier if it were eliminated? I know that your men can destroy them.

Tell me that these Manchurian soldiers are mainly Mongols and ethnic minorities in the west, and to capture them is to strengthen their control over the place.

I am most concerned about the situation of the heavy destruction of Arshan, not about the Manchukuo Xing'an Division.

Brigadier Wang told me that the operation in Arshan had begun, and that there were five hundred people there. In addition, he told me that Hailar had gathered a thousand men that night, and was preparing to attack Hailar.

In addition, he briefed me on the situation of Commander Lin's troops. Commander Lin's troops were assembling towards Wangye Temple, and they captured a train bound for Baichengzi and passed through Baichengzi disguised as Japanese troops. The train carried 3,000 people. I was amazed at how it was possible to pull so many people, Wang told me, and most of them stood all the way.

Some of Commander Zhu's troops were moving west along the railway on the west bank of the Nenjiang River, and some were moving along the railway line north of Qiqihar.

I think their actions will buy time for the Air Force, because we captured a train load of fuel last night.

Commander Lin and Brigade Commander Wang's men prepared to flank the front and rear to wipe out the Manchukuo Xing'an Division.

In the afternoon, Brigadier Wang and I took a railway hand-cranked car to Arshan.

Because there were no tracks on either side of the tunnel for a long stretch of rails, we walked through the tunnel and walked for half a day to reach a place where there were tracks. The cart could only seat five or six people, me, the king, and my guard, the messenger, and the two warriors who rocked the cart, who were the king's guards and the confidential officer, and carried the telegraph on their backs.

The car is fast, I think it's three times faster than a bike. It took us less than an hour to get to the combat position. I dare say that this kind of car is a lot of fun. It would have been nice if it hadn't been for war.

The small railway stations in this area were all occupied by the king's men, and there were empty trains parked in several small railway stations, which I am sure were heading back to Baichengzi.

On the way, Brigade Commander Wang made contact with the front line and gave the order to attack.

When we arrived in Arshan, we saw a thick puff of smoke in the distance. I'm glad it must have been on fire. It's not far from the border, and I'm sure the Red Army reconnaissance units on the opposite side can also see it.

Wang's troops had already attacked, and I thought that the railway station had been captured, but when I walked in, I saw that the oil in the railway station was ignited by something, and the explosion had stopped, and the whole railway station was burning. Black smoke billowed like hell.

I took a dozen photos and it was amazing.

It is believed that the Air Force and Army will thank Wang's troops for their help.

Wang's troops were attacking a building, and they told me that it was called the Yamato Hotel, which was built by the Japanese, and that there were dozens of Japanese resisting. When we were not far from the Yamato Hotel, two explosions sounded, what appeared to be mortars, but the sound was louder than the shelling.

Brigadier Wang and I arrived at the Yamato Hotel, and the battle was over. This time several people died, and there were many wounded.

The assault on Arshan was a swift battle, and the Japanese troops who came to the aid of the fortress were eliminated. The only regret is that the Angang detachment of the Japanese armored combat vehicle unit has left Arshan. It's a shame.

I found out that the Northeast Army Democratic Alliance Army has a medicine that we certainly don't have. Its anti-inflammatory effect is very good. None of the wounded soldiers in these two days had a fever.

I asked Brigade Commander Wang, and he said that he didn't have much medicine. I asked if you could tell us what kind of medicine it was. Wang said, the name of the medicine is penicillin, what is going on, you ask General Lu.

Wang's troops must have been poor, and they did not spare anything on the battlefield, including the clothes on the corpses of the Japanese soldiers.

Here again, I saw the militiamen, who had taken away all the food items seized in the battlefield.

We stayed in Arshan for an hour before retreating. During this hour, I took several photos and sent a briefing on the battle situation to the general staff of the 57th Army.

Brigadier Wang and I took a group photo under the stop sign at Arshan Railway Station, and then we took one separately. The stop sign was crooked and blackened by fire. For these photos, the fighters wanted to wipe the stop sign clean, and I took two photos, one blackened and the other clean.

The General Staff of the 57th Army called back, confirming our results, and said that Hailar also had results.

There are no observers in Hailar.
