Chapter 157: Luring the Enemy Deeper
Two days later, the "Ghost Prison" began to work, the address is in the small western-style building of Guiluo, but it is underground, in this way, it lives up to its name, and in the future, it has become a nightmare of many spies and traitors, and the people who go here, there are few dishonest ones, and after they come out, they are more faithful than dogs, and the people that Wei Chendong particularly hates in the future are also sent to the "Ghost Prison", so that they can die cruelly, so that they can truly become lonely ghosts.
Subsequently, Wei Chendong asked Guiluo to interrogate a few diehards of the special high school, and received reliable information that he had a plan to cut off the supply lines of the Yan and Huang army, and this plan was likely to be gradually implemented after the Shanghai war, and at that time, the army would attack Heilongjiang on one side, and on the other hand, it might put pressure on the Soviet Union or directly send troops to Inner Mongolia.
Wei Chendong has also taken precautions against this move, so he has also strengthened the defense of Hulunbuir City a long time ago, after all, part of the supply route of the Yan and Huang Army entered Heilongjiang from the city, as for himself and the Soviet Union, he is not worried, anyway, these two guys themselves have a lot of contradictions, I believe that the powerful Soviet Union will not necessarily sell his face, but everything must be prepared for a rainy day, so after the battle of Nenjiang Bridge, Wei Chendong also accelerated the transportation of materials from Gansu to Heilongjiang, and tried to accumulate as many materials as possible. lest the supply line be cut off and trapped alive. At the same time, Wei Chendong did not want to rely entirely on the outside world, and the production capacity of Heilongjiang and Hulunbuir cities was mobilized as much as possible in case of emergency.
While stimulating Yue himself in Heilongjiang, Wei Chendong consolidated his rear defense and was ready to fight a big war with Yue himself at any time, but at this time, Yue himself obviously had no time to look north at Wei Chendong, and the battle in Shanghai was extremely stalemate, and the battle situation was completely in Yue himself's expectations.
After Wei Chendong dealt with the matter at hand, he took a few capable subordinates, and after a good disguise, he left the Yanhuang Army garrison, and went all the way south, and actually went out of Heilongjiang and entered Jilin, which is his sphere of influence.
On the Shanghai side, on February 3, the reinforcements of the Yue army arrived, and they quickly tore up the ceasefire agreement with a cheeky face, and then attacked Zhabei, but were repulsed by the defenders. The Cabinet had no choice but to send the 3rd Fleet and the Kurume Mixed Brigade of the Army to provide rapid support, and replaced Shiozawa, which was unfavorable in combat, with the commander of the 3rd Fleet, Kichizaburo Nomura, taking over the command.
At this time, the Chinese New Year is coming, but at this time, everyone has the intention to celebrate the New Year, especially the people of Shanghai, they would even rather than this year, but also try to save some materials to support the 19th Route Army, these soldiers are too bitter, the political axe does not support and wreaks havoc on its war of resistance, but fortunately there is a strong support for the unswerving Yan and Huang Army and the vast number of patriotic people, so that they are more not afraid of sacrifice, with tenacity, with simple weapons and equipment and powerful army to tear up.
Late at night on February 5, nearly 50,000 people from the five divisions of the Yan and Huang Army suddenly rushed into Jilin and stormed the positions of the Eastern Army.
The two sides fought for several hours, and by the time the Kwantung Army reinforcements arrived, the Yanhuang Army had already returned to Heilongjiang, eating a delicious Chinese New Year's Eve meal and drinking the rare Moutai wine produced by the Yanhuang Wine Company.
This move of the Yan and Huang Army was obviously provoking the army, although it slapped the Kwantung Army and beat his hands painfully, but this tone was really difficult for the Kwantung Army to bear.
The Kwantung Army finally became angry, and Honjo Shigeru almost acquiesced, and immediately two divisions of the army galloped into the junction of Jilin and Heilongjiang, ready to launch a fierce attack at any time. At this time, the soldiers of the Yan and Huang Army had eaten enough, drunk enough, and the red envelopes were also in hand, although they were spending the New Year in a foreign land, they felt quite fulfilling, and immediately threw themselves into the front line with great vigor and high spirits, and confronted the Kwantung Army.
On the morning of February 6, which was the Lunar New Year, the Kwantung Army made a public speech, accusing the Yan and Huang Army of provocative behavior against the Imperial Army, which was really unwise, which was causing an all-out confrontation in the Central People's Republic of China, and ordered the Yan and Huang Army to publicly apologize to the Kwantung Army and retreat 200 miles, otherwise they would only bear the endless anger of the Kwantung Army.
In response to his unreasonable request, Yan Huangjun scoffed, and publicly declared that he did not mean to provoke the Kwantung Army, but the New Year came, and the Yan Huang Army did not have New Year's goods, so he wanted to slaughter some pigs, but Yan Huangjun said that there were the most pigs around him, and at the earnest request of the soldiers, he decided to taste whether this Oriental product tasted better.
Yike...... Hearing this kind of words, it seems that no matter how good-tempered people are, they can't stand it, not to mention the Kwantung Army, which has always been arrogant, and immediately a part of the army can't stand this kind of bird spirit, and before waiting for the order of the headquarters, they take the initiative to attack.
On the first day ......of the Lunar New Year, the two sides began to fight, and the Yan and Huang armies could not hold out, and they were already preparing for a defensive battle.
The first to attack was the two wings, they did not get the order of the Kwantung Army Headquarters, they were completely self-made, I don't know whether the anger of these two wings was too heavy, or the defense of Harbin was too poor, so they actually let them go on a rampage, rushed through Wuchang City, and plunged headlong into Acheng, 100 kilometers deep into Heilongjiang.
When Honjo heard the news, he scolded the commander for being a fool, this was obviously the enemy's plan to lure the enemy into depth, and if he advanced like this, he would have to catch up with the Chinese Lantern Festival, just enough to let people make dumplings.
Sure enough, when Honjo ordered the two wings to hurry back, they had already fallen into the encirclement of the Yan and Huang Army, and in desperation, the Kwantung Army Headquarters had to order to rush to the rescue, but added a sentence at the end, "In the case of being sure that they can be saved and not falling into the enemy's plan."
After receiving the order, the two divisions on the front line were close and immediately drove into Heilongjiang, but they were much more careful, they knew that almost the entire Heilongjiang was full of soldiers, and the Yan and Huang Army had been building up the anti-Japanese consciousness of the people of Heilongjiang, and equipped them with weapons, and in several cities connected to Jilin, almost all men, women, and children between the ages of 16 and 55 had them, although they were only shotguns and earthen guns for hunting, but there were still protective forces.
The two divisions that went to the rescue this time were led by Lieutenant General Masao Wuchuan, saying that they were coming to the rescue, and their other intention was to explore how deep the water of the Heilongjiang River was.
After the Battle of Nenjiang Bridge, this guy began to dig deep holes and accumulate grain, hyped up the atrocities of the Yue army, and also found a lot of evidence, that picture of the killing of Chinese by the Yue army in Jilin and Liaoning was hyped up in the vast countryside and cities, and the evidence was ironclad, and it was impossible to believe it, and later the Kwantung Army inquired that these photos were taken by reporters from Yanhuang Yue Bao deep behind enemy lines, although later the Kwantung Army increased its control and arrested some reporters and shot them, but this wind did not stop, On the contrary, it attracted more foreign reporters to come, that is, to publicize his atrocities to the world, coupled with the propaganda of public opinion, the current Yue himself, in many places where information is blocked, is like a beast, they eat human flesh raw, animal desires come together, even sows are not spared.
Especially in Heilongjiang, the reputation of the Yan and Huang Army is outside, coupled with the fear and hatred of himself, Wei Chendong is equivalent to the soil emperor here, and what he said can basically be implemented very well, but the premise is that he is still to protect Heilongjiang, and he has not harmed the people, but just united them all to facilitate the resistance, for example, the Yan and Huang Army have tied up Qiqihar, Daqing, Suihua, Harbin, Mudanjiang and other cities connected to Jilin, and concentrated food and other materials as much as possible. All kinds of bills were issued to every household, just like the period after the founding of the People's Republic of China, when productivity was not sustained, and the purchase of things depended on food stamps, cloth stamps, and the like.
In addition, Wei Chendong scattered the strength of six or seven divisions of the army, and let them disperse to every village in southern Qiannan to ensure that there were people from the Yan and Huang Army in every place, one is to ensure that the Yan and Huang Army can penetrate into the people, so as to gain their trust and support, and the other is to monitor himself in a full range at any time. As soon as they entered Heilongjiang, all news would immediately reach the headquarters of the Yan and Huang Army, and third, they would fight guerrillas, organize local anti-Japanese alliances, ordinary people, or other anti-Japanese groups, and interfere with their own actions through tunnel warfare, guerrilla warfare, and so on.
Takekawa Masao led his troops deep into Heilongjiang for dozens of miles without any obstruction and interference, not even a single figure, as if there was no one here, but those houses were still there, after setting fire to several villages, Takekawa Masao was dead, it seems that these Chinese do not plan to come out of the tunnel, he does not have time to encircle and suppress now, since they do not interfere with the actions of the side, he also wants to rescue the besieged people as soon as possible.
Yangshu Township is the place where nearly 20,000 people from the two divisions of the Yan and Huang Army surrounded the two wings.
"Boom ......" rows of neat grenadiers put together, one of the fighters erected, the other fighter immediately took a shell from the mouth of the pipe and put it in, with a bang, the shell was sent to the position of the army, although the lethality of this kind of thing is not very large, but the cost is lower, easy to carry.
"I heard that the reinforcements of my two divisions are about to arrive in Shuangfeng Town", Shen Sifan, the commander of the Yanhuang Army, pointed to the map and said lightly.
"Well, didn't we just wait for them because we didn't eat these two wings? It's just that these guys still seem to have a big taboo, and they haven't dared to let go and come quickly," Song Jianghe, chief of staff, said.
"Hehe, I was also bitten by a snake once, and I was afraid of the well rope for ten years, last time we fought too much, let them remember it in their hearts, this time give them a lesson, let them remember it in their bones, let them know, in the future, Heilongjiang's idea will be less fighting", Shen Sifan put down the pencil and chuckled.
"Report ......," a message shouted loudly.
"Come in".
The correspondent strode in, and then handed over a telegram quickly.
Shen Sifan took it apart, frowned, and handed it over to Song Jianghe, who took a look at it and sighed: "It seems that our bait is too small, and the fish can't take the bait, now we can only eat this besieged enemy first, and then pursue it."
"Leave one division to quickly eat this enemy, and the other division immediately goes into battle lightly to pursue the Yue army, and at the same time launches guerrilla warfare in the Acheng and Wuchang areas to sabotage and block the ......escape of the Yue army" Seeing that the Yue army gave up the rescue plan, Shen Sifan immediately gave orders one after another.
Immediately, the military headquarters moved with the army, and at the same time, the remaining 1st division immediately launched a general attack on the besieged army.
