Chapter 582: The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in the Northeast (6)

The 25th Brigade was defeated, and Yang Bingzao and the surrendered officers and soldiers were incorporated into a regiment of the puppet army by Yu Datou. 15

The regiment commander Zhao Weibin, the lieutenant colonel attached to Wang Xishan, led the two battalion commanders Li Fuchen and Zhang Leshan, who had bravely resisted the Japanese army in the Nanling barracks, to gather the remnants of the army and drive eastward, they were going to find Feng Zhanhai, a team of the Northeast Army that was still insisting on resisting in the land of Jilin, and a team that resisted alone in front of countless watchers of the Northeast Army.

Feng Zhanhai is the nephew of Zhang Zuoxiang, chairman of Jilin Province, in 1917, 18-year-old Feng Zhanhai left his rural hometown and joined his uncle Zhang Zuoxiang as a service soldier. Two years later, he was sent by his uncle to study in the third phase of the Northeast Lecture and Martial Arts Hall, and after graduating in 1921, he served as a captain and adjutant, and six years later he became a colonel and served as the head of the guard regiment of the Northeast Frontier Army's Office of the Deputy Commander's Office.

In the eyes of many people in the Northeast Army of Jilin, Feng Zhanhai is probably just a person who has attained the Tao, stimulated the dog to ascend to heaven, and relied on his uncle's big tree to enjoy the shade, and has no prestige. So Xiqia doesn't take him very seriously.

After the Japanese army entered Jilin, with the protection of the Japanese, Xiqia immediately showed his true colors, and sent people to Feng Zhanhai three times in a row, asking Feng Zhanhai to either bring his troops back to the city and surrender to the Japanese army, or take the money and leave, and send him Feng Zhanhai to study abroad, but Feng Zhanhai refused.

In Xiqia's opinion, although Feng Zhanhai is a regiment leader, he is just a doll who has not gone through a big scene. Without the provincial government's food and salary, Feng Zhanhai could only obediently comply.

But Xiqia didn't expect that Feng Zhanhai was not only a hard bone, but also the kind that was not stupid.

Feng Zhanhai received a letter of persuasion from Xiqia, and when he saw that the signs were wrong, he urgently distributed bombs that night, and quickly withdrew after vowing to resist Japan.

The vicinity of Jilin City has become a world of Japanese and Xiqia, and it is really a wise move for Feng Zhanhai to lead his team to quickly leave this place of right and wrong.

Feng Zhanhai first entered Huadian in the east, and then crossed the Songhua River into the northern part of Jilin Province, reaching the areas of Shulan, Wuchang and Acheng.

Moreover, this Feng Zhanhai is not rushing with his head covered, every time he goes, he always has to hold a meeting to preach the anti-Japanese resistance, publicize the Xiqia surrender to the enemy, and the momentum of the anti-Japanese war is getting bigger and bigger by him, and the people along the way welcome him. When Feng Zhanhai arrived in Shulan County, the students of the county town came in groups and came out of the city more than ten miles to greet him.

Feng Zhanhai's ministry was originally in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to receive cotton clothes, but after entering the Songhua Jiangbei area, the products here are rich and the grain is relatively abundant, and with local support, the logistical difficulties have been greatly alleviated.

Not only that, because of the rampant bandits in this area of Jilin, it is said that there are more than 200,000 guns hidden by the people, and the folk customs are also relatively strong, calling for the war of resistance, and it is more advantageous to supplement personnel.

Originally, there were many people in this area who were interested in resisting Japan, but they were unorganized, everyone was undecided, and no one was convinced. Device: No advertisements, full text, and even more Feng Zhanhai, a regular army, came over under the banner of anti-Japanese resistance, which is equivalent to bringing everyone an anti-Japanese leader.

After the establishment of the provisional anti-Japanese provincial government of Jilin Province in Bingxian County, Feng Zhanhai was immediately appointed as the commander of the Jilin Provincial Garrison. With the title of commander, Feng Zhanhai led the anti-Japanese resistance in the Shulan area even more justifiably.

For a time, there was an endless stream of those who led the team to join Feng Zhanhai, or echoed and supported them locally. According to Feng Zhanhai's own later statement, there were already 20,000 anti-Japanese troops under his command at that time.

In this way, Feng Zhanhai and Zhang Zuozhou's 25th Brigade stationed in Yushu County, as well as the three teams of the Eastern Resistance Resistance, became the center of attention of the anti-Japanese forces in Jilin Province at that time, and also became a thorn in the side of Xiqia.

After Elm's Zhang Zuozhou brigade was defeated by Yu Chencheng's puppet army heading north. Originally, the anti-Japanese troops who looked at each other across the river from each other's horns and Xiqia were left with Feng Zhanhai, a lonely vote, and the Eastern Resistance was still far away from Feng Zhanhai. Yu Chencheng's puppet army quickly killed Feng Zhanhai's subordinates. …,

At this time, it was not Feng Zhanhai's main force stationed on the Shulan front.

Feng Zhanhai's department was divided into three parts at that time, one part was in Binxian County to protect the provincial government, one part was distributed in Acheng, preparing to hold the Hasui line, and the other wave was stationed in Wuchang and Shulan. At this time, it was not the backbone of Feng Zhanhai's guard regiment that confronted the puppet army on the front line of Shulan Ashram, but the team of Feng Zhanhai's sworn brothers, Gong Changhai and Yao Chengqian.

Although it is not the regular army of the Guards Regiment, this force has made the puppet army in front of it suffer enough. Because the leader of the palace Changhai is a famous legend, famous in the green forest of the northeast, and reported as "big fool". This Gong Changhai's experience is typical, and it can be described as the epitome of the wonderful relationship between soldiers and bandits in the Northeast.

Gong Changhai was born in 1894 in a poor peasant family in Shandong, and his mother died before he was one year old. At the age of 7, he followed his father to Kanto, and when he grew up, he first became a soldier, and later took more than 20 brothers to desert and become a beard, pulling a team of more than 500 people. The government saw that it couldn't be suppressed, so it first recruited an attempt to eliminate it, but was unexpectedly discovered by the alert Gong Changhai and ran away again, and the more he did it, the more ruthless he did, and the bigger he did. In 25 years, Gong Changhai once again accepted the recruitment of Zhang Zuoxiang, the overseer of Jilin Province, and led the team to serve in the cavalry division of Jilin. And the commander of this cavalry division is none other than Yu Chencheng, the "commander of the bandits" in Jilin Province who is now leading the puppet army to attack.

Yu Datou appreciated Gong Changhai very much, and married his niece to Gong Changhai. After Yu Datou was driven back to his hometown because of his involvement in the rebellion, Gong Changhai went to the 25th Brigade of the sworn brothers Zhang Zuozhou as an adjutant.

After the 918 Incident, the 25th Brigade withdrew from Changchūn, and Gong Changhai ran back to his hometown and pulled up the team.

At the beginning, Gong Changhai even served as a battalion commander in the garrison regiment of the puppet army, and when the anti-Japanese movement surged in various parts of Jilin, this old scoop of the green forest also led the team to rebel against the puppet army, raised the banner of anti-Japanese resistance, defected to Feng Zhanhai, and bowed to Feng Zhanhai.

The so-called family of soldiers and bandits, Gong Changhai is the most typical one, three times as a bandit, three times as a soldier, and the puppet army commander Yu Datou is a close relative, and Zhang Zuozhou and Feng Zhanhai who resisted Japan are brothers. The enmity between friend and foe is so complicated. Similarly, in the puppet army that was in the big head at that time, there were no less bandits.

After Feng Zhanhai went north to Bin County, he handed over the first line to Gong Changhai and Yao Chengqian. When the two confronted the puppet army in front of them, there was no shortage of small battles. Confronted with them was the puppet army Ma Xilin Brigade, Ma Xilin turned out to be the commander of the 23rd Brigade of Li Guilin, the guard of Jichang Town, and the regular army. Regarding this temporarily pulled up adapted green forest team, Ma Xilin didn't care very much. But if you don't fight, you don't know that these two commanders who were born as bandits used their troops strangely and did not follow common sense, and the puppet army suffered a big loss as soon as they came up. Known as the first shot of the anti-Japanese resistance in Shulan County, it is the masterpiece of these two bearded commanders.

At that time, a battalion of the puppet army stationed in Shulan, together with the local militia forces, security teams, and big-name associations, attempted to encircle and eliminate the palace chief Haibu stationed in Longwangtun. Deal with hundreds of people in the palace and Yao's department. dispatched a battalion and local armed forces, and the puppet army thought that it was enough, and pulled out a formation of separate attacks and joint attacks. Unexpectedly, Gong Changhai first used earthen cannons, foreign guns and even firecrackers to scare away the lively guards and big-name clubs, and set up an ambush, covering the two companies of the puppet army who were in a hurry to pursue them, and beat them severely. Suddenly beat the puppet army honestly.

Gong Changhai and Yao Chengqian, who are the commanders of the Third and Fourth Garrison Brigades of the Jilin Garrison respectively, but there are only six or seven hundred horses under the two brigade commanders. Such a unit is very mobile, and it is from a bandit, and it is not afraid of death in battle, and it is relatively clever, which can be said to be Feng Zhanhai's killer weapon. However, these hundreds of people can attack, but it is difficult for them to be competent for the offensive and defensive positions of regular warfare. …,

And this time it was no longer a puppet army of a few companies, but an army led by Yu Datou, the uncle of the palace chief Hai's daughter-in-law. Just as the palace chief Hai was about to compete with his daughter-in-law, his uncle and his old boss Yu Datou, Yu Datou suddenly turned around and captured the elm tree, continued to cross the Lalin River north, and hit the side of the ash. Feng Zhanhai hurriedly ordered the palace and Yao to abandon ash and rush to join the main force to prepare for a decisive battle with the entire puppet army.

After defeating Zhang Zuozhou and occupying Yushu County, Yu Datou's puppet army has completely taken the lead. From Yushu County to the north, cross the Lalin River and advance to Acheng County, which is now Acheng District of Harbin City. A considerable part of Feng Zhanhai's team is still concentrated in the area of Ashwagandha and Wuchang County in the east.

After hearing of Zhang Zuozhou's defeat, Feng Zhanhai was forced to abandon the eastern defense line of Wuchang and other places, and urgently pulled his troops to the area of Lalincang on the north bank of the Lalin River, in an attempt to block the advance of Yu Datou's puppet army here.

Lalin Cang, when you hear the name, it seems to be the name of a warehouse. That's right, during the Kangxi period, this was the important place for the Qing Dynasty army to resist Russia. The word Lalin comes from the rushing Lalin River in the south. During the Republic of China, this is the crossroads of an official road, once the capture of Lalin, then the north can directly take Acheng, the east can rush to attack the Hasui railway, the west can enter the twin cities, cut off the Harbin-Changchun railway. Moreover, Lalin Cang is very wealthy, and the people are rich and have many guns, and there are more than 300 guns in the business group of the Lalin Chamber of Commerce alone.

Such a rich place, and a transportation hub, Feng Zhanhai was unwilling to let it out. So he staked all his possessions into the house. Wang Xishan's 1st Brigade and Zhao Weibin's 2nd Brigade were the troops of the original 25th Brigade, Gong Changhai's 3rd Brigade and Yao Bingqian's 4th Brigade were also recalled from the Ash front, the backbone of the Guards Regiment, Yang Shusen's 1st Detachment also rushed to Lalincang, and the Treasure Artillery Battalion of the Guards Regiment was also pulled up. Shi Zhaifen, president of the Lalincang Chamber of Commerce, also led a business group of more than 300 people to join Feng Jun and was organized as the 16th regiment. Feng Zhanhai's whole army was ready for battle.

Originally, Han Guangdi sent Li Jichuan to contact Feng Zhanhai, preparing to send two key regiments to support, and even considering that their current identities were not easy to be accepted by Feng Zhanhai, they specially prepared to ask Wang Tiehan to lead the team.

But its kindness was rejected by Feng Zhanhai.

Yu Datou, who came with all his strength, not only included the vanguard Liu Baolin Brigade that captured Yushu County, but also the Ma Xilin Brigade, which was composed of Li Guilin, the 23rd Brigade who surrendered to the enemy. Wang Shutang's brigade was composed of the Jixing 27th Brigade that surrendered to the enemy in Yanji, in addition to Li Yujiu, Qian Fuan and other units.

Only 5 days after Yu Datou captured Yushu, Yu Chencheng commanded his puppet army to cross the Lalin River and approach the city of Lalincang. Relying on the strength of the outnumbered people, the puppet army adopted the same approach as the attack on Elm City, and the troops were divided into three ways and launched a siege from three sides. Feng Zhanhai's 1st and 2nd Brigades were both defeated soldiers of the 25th Brigade, lacking strength and demoralization. Feng Zhanhai could only rely on his own lineage, and Yang Shuzheng and Yang Fengshan's detachment fought back.

Fierce fighting began in the morning, when the puppet Li Yujiu brigade first broke through the defensive line from the southwest corner and rushed into the city. The Yang Shuzheng detachment engaged in a fierce street battle with it. Feng Zhanhai bombarded the follow-up troops of the puppet army with artillery, and used cavalry to attack the flank of the puppet army from the right flank, but could not stop the offensive of the puppet army.

Feng Zhan's navy, which was unable to fight again, was forced to withdraw from Lalincang, and the retreat was so hasty that it was too late to bury the bodies of the war dead. And Shi Zhaifen, the president of the Lalincang Chamber of Commerce, who generously served in the army, was guarding outside the east gate, and was forced to retreat at this time, but was surrounded by the pursuing soldiers in a nearby pot compound, more than 300 people were killed and wounded, and Shi Zhaifen, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, did not euthanize as a slave of the country, but gave his life in this flesh and blood battlefield.

For such an ending, I am afraid that many people find it difficult to accept. How can the puppet army defeat the righteous army of resistance again and again? However, the facts of history are always so cruel, Yu Datou, who led the puppet army to the battle, won both battles, defeated Zhang Zuozhou, defeated Feng Zhanhai, and the two armies holding high the banner of resistance against Japan were defeated and retreated. In the decisive battle of Lalincang, Feng Zhan's navy was defeated and retreated, and the gateway to Harbin was completely opened. …,

It is only a hundred miles away from Harbin. Whether it is Yu Datou or Xiqia, at this moment, they must believe that victory is within reach.

Lalin Cang was lost, and the door to Harbin was opened.

At this time, Ding Chao, the envoy of Binjiang Town and the commander of the 28th Brigade stationed in Harbin, was in charge of Harbin, the central city of North Manchuria, but he had always had an ambiguous attitude. Whether it is anti-Japanese or Japanese, he is ushered in and sent by the envoys on both sides. Not only him, but the attitude of the other brigade commanders was similar, nine brigades in Jilin Province, three and a half brigades surrendered to Xiqia's puppet office, Feng Zhanhai regiment and Zhang Zuozhou's brigade were defeated under the banner of anti-Japanese resistance, and the other five brigades were still waiting!!

Neither side bets, wait and see how the situation changes, and then play, which is no stranger to the warlords in the Central Plains before the war. However, this incident is in the Northeast Army, which is very interesting and illustrative.

It's just that there is also a limit to playing, and anyone who waits and sees to the end must make a choice, so when to give up the wait-and-see and watch to join the limelight, the timing is very important.

Thank you for the monthly pass support of "don't ask" book friends!
