The second detachment that boarded the ship was also very smooth, although those guards were indeed much stronger than the Japanese puppet troops on the shore, but with mental calculation or unintentionality, the Japanese guards on the ship were all released without even one-tenth of their combat effectiveness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 During the info period, there was a soldier who wanted to resist in a hazy way, but the members of the Marine Corps cut off his head as soon as possible, and dealt with him very neatly.
At half past eleven o'clock in the evening, all the battles in the port outside the city were over, and the Marines completely annihilated 723 Japanese puppet troops with zero casualties, including 511 Japanese marines.
After the battle, Du Yunhai found an order from an officer of the group of Japanese guards who had been executed, confirming that it was an independent battalion of the Japanese Marine Corps that was executed by them, and their mission in Weixian this time was to protect Prince Fushimi Miyahiro to return to China to report on his work.
Due to the special status of His Royal Highness the Prince, all the people were strictly required to never reveal their identities, and they were not even allowed to wear the standard military uniforms of the Marine Corps, so they had to wear ordinary army field uniforms.
But in any case, the battle outside the city was going well, and the transport ships that controlled the port of the Saibei Corps could dock, and the matter was half the battle. After completely controlling the port, Du Yunhai immediately sent a signal to Tie Niu and the others, and at the same time telegraphed to the naval ships to let their fleet dock immediately.
Tie Niu and the others also reacted extremely quickly, and immediately began to act after receiving Du Yunhai's summons.
Compared with the battle in the port, the battle in the city is both simple and complicated, and the simple reason is that the defenders in the city are almost all second-line garrisons, and the combat effectiveness is pitiful in peacetime, let alone at this time.
There were not many Japanese puppet soldiers patrolling the streets, only four or five patrol teams, each patrol team was only three or four people, which was far worse than the usual dozen or so people. The defenders at the gates were more cautious than the defenders elsewhere, but there were quite a few who drank a lot of wine.
Although the wine these people drank was not all adulterated, the phrase "drinking and mistaking things" will never become obsolete, those people are fine when they drink, but the attention of the people who have drunk the wine is not able to concentrate at all, and the more than 50 defenders of the East Gate were all solved by the special combat team with knives in less than ten minutes from beginning to end.
After the city gate was opened, more than 400 special combat personnel rushed to their respective targets. The special combat team reacted quickly and had a clear goal, and more than 1,000 people acted together without the slightest panic. Garrison headquarters, barracks, concentration camps, arsenals, oil depots, and grain depots all have a special combat team rushing to attack, and there are also special patrols to clear the streets.
At 0:20, as a red signal flare rose into the air, it was announced that the entire county seat of Weixian County had changed hands.
Although Weixian County is not heavily guarded, it can be regarded as heavily defended, but even this is still solved by less than a kilogram of "sweat medicine". In this battle, the Japanese defenders of Weixian plus more than 600 marines on the pier outside the city, a total of 1,400 defenders were all annihilated, except for Prince Fushiminomiya whose identities were exposed, and Osawa Shaoza, commander of the Weixian Garrison Command, were not immediately executed, and all the rest were corrected on the spot without any slipping through the net.
After dealing with the Japanese puppet army in the city, Tie Niu, with the help of the local underground party, began to transfer the Allied expatriates and the Chinese imprisoned in the Weixian Ledaoyuan concentration camp, while the underground party in the city organized the people to start looting the Japanese puppet warehouse and the company.
Despite the large number of people, the transfer of hostages and the movement of supplies lasted an hour and a half.
At 2:35 a.m. on the 13th, 10 gunboats opened the way ahead. In the middle are 25 large transport ships converted from cargo ships, which house 2,128 Allied expatriates and Chinese detained, and at the back are more than 40 large cargo ships with large wooden boxes.
At 4 o'clock sharp, the flotilla joined the two cruisers at the mouth of the Wei River, and then the whole fleet headed north, towards the port of Tianjin.
The Eighth Route Army on the Tianjin side had entered a state of first-class combat readiness as early as the day before, and all the coastal defense units in the port of Tianjin were immediately put into battle. Even the heavy artillery that was originally placed in the warehouse was all pushed out, and the only dozens of planes of the Saibei Corps were all transferred to the airports of Beiping and Tianjin, ready to support possible battles at sea.
Okamura Ninji learned that the accident in the Weixian concentration camp had happened at one o'clock in the afternoon of the 13th, mainly thanks to the arrangement of the iron bull. In order to delay time, Tie Niu and the others did not withdraw all of them when they retreated, but left a small detachment dressed as Japanese soldiers to continue to maintain order in the city.
Last night, before the evacuation, the large army did a simple disposal of all the corpses of the Japanese puppet army, and the large warehouses that originally contained food and weapons and equipment were all piled up with the corpses of the Japanese puppet army, so the Japanese fleet did not find anything abnormal after several trips in the morning.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the remaining detachment estimated that the large force had safely arrived at the port of Tianjin and quickly withdrew, and it was only then that the Japanese North China Front realized that something was wrong.
Then the matter was reported one by one, and when it was reported to Okamura Ninji's desk, it was already 1:50 pm on the 13th, and it was about to reach 14 o'clock. At this time, the fleet of Tie Niu and others had already anchored and disembarked at the port of Tianjin, and the entire army was organizing the landing of the Allied expatriates.
Compared with the small county town of Weixian, the disappearance of Prince Fushimi Palace is what worries Okamura Ninji the most, you must know that this Prince Fushimi Palace is very different from ordinary royal family members.
The prince's full name was Fushimi Miya, a Japanese field marshal and admiral. He served as the chief of the Japanese military command department in the Pacific War, and became a major admiral in 1922. In 1932, he entered the Marshal's Office, and the following year, he succeeded Naoma Taniguchi from the Treaty faction as the head of the Naval Command, and the Chief of the General Staff, Prince Kanin Miyazaihito, was in charge of both the navy and the army, and Kanji Kato and Shigetaro Shimada were all under his command.
Prince Fushiminomiya came to China half a year ago, and he came to China to carry out a secret operation for the Japanese imperial family.
Due to the extreme secrecy of this operation, no one except Prince Fushimi Palace and several top commanders of the Chinese Dispatch Army Command knew about it, including Okamura Ninji. Even His Royal Highness's guards were carefully selected by him from his most trusted marines, and no one else used them, so he didn't expect them to fold here.
After learning that His Royal Highness's guards were wiped out and no one survived, and that His Royal Highness was missing, Okamura Ninji's first feeling was that the sky had fallen.
Okamura Ninji, who has always been honored and disgraced, is really anxious this time, although His Royal Highness the Prince is 68 years old this year, but no one in the entire Japanese military circle dares to underestimate His Royal Highness.
This is not just because he is His Royal Highness, but because of His Royal Highness's personal charm and superhuman abilities.
Prince Fushiminomiya was an elite who returned from studying in Germany, participated in the Russo-Japanese War and the Sino-Japanese War and served as a naval commander at the time, and became a naval admiral at the age of 47 in 1922.
During his tenure of office, he tore up the London Naval Treaty, forced the Admiralty Minister Otkaku Zensheng to transfer operational command from the Ministry of the Navy to the Military Command Department, dismissed a large number of naval officers from the treaty faction, promoted Japanese and German naval cooperation, and forced the Navy to agree to war against the United States.
Not to mention how His Royal Highness the Prince is, let's just say that his protégés and former officials all over the military circles are an awe-inspiring force, and if he learns that this is an accident for His Royal Highness in North China, then he, the commander of the North China Front, will also be able to do it.
On the one hand, Okamura Ninji sent a report to the Chinese military headquarters and the base camp to report the incident, and on the other hand, he hastened to take remedial measures. In his opinion, the most important thing now is to determine the whereabouts of His Royal Highness, and as a high-ranking commander, Okamura Ninji knows how sensitive the identity of a high-ranking officer and member of the imperial family like Fushimi Palace is.
In Okamura's opinion, the best situation now is not that His Royal Highness is still alive, but that he and his guards have been killed by the Shina people.
Because a dead prince can only carve one more name on the wall of the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo, but a prince, marshal, and general who has been captured by the enemy is a slap in the face of the empire, and his personal life and death gains and losses are small, and the honor and disgrace of the empire are the most important.
