Chapter 364: The Anti-United Nations in Qiha (2)
The propaganda team was not idle, last night's combat propaganda team had not participated in the front-line battle in the rear, when the soldiers had a night of combat rest, the propaganda team took over the vigilance task, early in the morning Ding Zhiqing, Sun Ping, Li Fang patrolled with a few soldiers, and saw many people on the street watching the excitement, especially many young students were around the anti-United Nations soldiers standing guard and guarding, Ding Zhiqing had an idea, and told Sun Ping and Li Fang his thoughts, and the two nodded straight after hearing it, The three of them ran back to the headquarters to organize the officers of the political department of the headquarters and the propaganda team, and without affecting the overall situation, they transferred instructors and instructors from various units to organize a propaganda team to publicize their own troops and call on everyone to join the army to save the country.
The eloquence of the three people was good, and their excellent speeches made the once numb hearts of every Chinese present fluctuate a little. There are also the lyrics of Meng Qingshan, a small choir composed by several propaganda teams, and the "Song of Intellectual Youth in the Army" arranged by Zhou Baozhong infected every young student present. When the passionate military song was sung, it completely stimulated the patriotic enthusiasm that had been suppressed in the hearts of these young students for many years, and the song "My Home is on the Songhua River", which was sung throughout the country, was sung all over the hearts of the people.
In addition to these popular military songs, the propaganda team sang the "Ten Persuasions," which is an agitating ballad composed of lyrics from Northeast folk songs to mobilize the masses to join the army and participate in the war.
The cannon sounded, and the devil was strong,
The oppression of our country is too rampant.
Persuade my father and mother, listen to what I have to say,
I went to the army and don't think about it.
Second, persuade my brother. Listen to me,
I'm going to join the army, and you can do your job well.
……
Nine persuade me to be the head of the village. Remember,
The Anti-Japanese Federation came and sent a lot of good food.
Ten persuade myself. Participate in the Anti-Union League,
Defeat the little Japanese slave revolution to the end.
In just one morning, with the efforts of the propaganda team and political workers, thousands of students were enrolled. Not to mention that the students in several national high schools and teacher schools in Qiqihar City were almost all recruited by them, and many students from several senior elementary schools in the city also signed up to join the army, and there were more than 1,000 female students among these thousands of students.
Meng Qingshan washed his face and was about to call Huzi to eat, when he saw Liu Yalou walking in with a telegram and a happy face.
"What's wrong with the Chief of Staff?"
"The Commander-in-Chief has three happy events."
"Oh! Let's talk about those three happy events. ”
"The first is the battle ahead, although the little devils still have an advantage, but they have been blocked at our door and can't get in, and the political commissar just called back. It is said that the main force of the little devil is still in the area of the Woniu River, and the strong attack for several days has not captured our position, and the Japanese army on the east road is in the area of Qunce Mountain by the troops of the second division and the second and third military regions led by Zhang Yunzhi to make a fuss, running around, and the Japanese army on the middle road is running around the mountain in circles under the leadership of Deputy Commander Yang! ”
"This one is good news, once the Japanese troops on the west road and the Japanese army on the middle road know that Qiqihar is occupied, they will immediately turn around and destroy us, and we will transport all the materials we need in the city back before the enemy rushes back." Meng Qingshan nodded and said.
"The second piece of good news is that it is more important for us, just after two hours of seizure. In Qiqihar City, the Central Bank of the Puppet Manchurians and several Japanese banks seized at least three tons of gold ingots that had been refined into gold ingots and were ready to be shipped to Japan, as well as a large amount of silver and Manchurian currency.
Not counting a large amount of gold and other precious metals, the Japanese army alone seized hundreds of tons of steel rails transported from Harbin in order to repair and continue to build the Qihei Railway. And the Japanese army in order to form the Qiqihar Arsenal. Some of the machinery and equipment and raw materials transferred from the Shenyang Arsenal have not yet been unloaded, and all of them have been seized.
Dozens of various vehicles left behind by the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, including the special car of Lieutenant General Fengwu of the Japanese Army and the hundreds of pack horses left in Qiqihar by the baggage wing, were also captured. This is not the 10th Division, which has not yet had time to count the various spare materials that it has stored in Qiqihar at this time. Including the replenishment of part of the equipment, as well as a large amount of ammunition in reserve.
"There is also food that has not yet been transported away, which has been roughly counted. This is enough food for our troops to feed for two years. ”
"I'm so obedient." Meng Qingshan said in surprise.
As the first town captured by Meng Qingshan, it served as a hub for water and land transportation. Qiqihar, one of the most important strongholds of North Manchuria, was one of the most important strongholds of the Japanese army, which could not be compared with the county towns fought before the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and the first city occupied by the Japanese army was Qiqihar, the provincial capital of Heilongjiang during the former Republic of China. In particular, the Nenjiang Plain in the north and the counties in the north are important producers of gold in Northeast China, as well as important distribution centers for coal, timber and fur, which are extremely rich, but Meng Qingshan did not expect that this Qiqihar is so rich, and the capture of Qiqihar can make the development of the Anti-United Nations in two years, and with the weapons collected in Qiqihar, the Anti-Japanese Federation can immediately arm the strength of three divisions.
What made Meng Qingshan even happier was that hundreds of military workers and their families who had been forcibly relocated from the Shenyang Arsenal by the Japanese army were found in a barracks of the Japanese army. Although the arsenal of the Anti-Japanese Union has been opened, some products have been produced. Although it was also possible to develop and manufacture weapons, there were too few people familiar with the military industry, and there was simply no enough for the anti-United Nations troops to consume weapons and ammunition that were disproportionate, so that the anti-United Nations could rely on seizures on the one hand and imports from the Soviet Union on the other, but it was far from quenching its thirst, and the Japanese navy blockaded the Heilongjiang River valley, which cut off trade with the Jiangbei side, and the anti-Japanese forces had to rely on seizure and production.
In addition to the constraints on raw materials, the most common is the severe shortage of skilled workers. And this time, he got hundreds of skilled workers who had been working in the Shenyang Arsenal since the time of the young marshal, how could this not make him extremely excited, these skilled workers can bring at least three apprentices per person, then as long as the arsenal of the Anti-Japanese Federation will expand even more after three months.
In addition to this incident, there was also the seizure of sulfonamide antibiotics that had begun to be produced in large quantities at this time and were currently in large-scale clinical use in the Devil's Hospital, as well as penicillin, which cannot be synthesized artificially at present, but can only be synthesized naturally and cannot be produced on a large scale. Although the number is small, less than a thousand. But this kind of medicine, which is more expensive than gold at the moment, can save a lot of wounded, and Meng Qingshan wanted to buy penicillin from Jiangbei at the beginning, but he spent a lot of gold to buy less than a hundred, and now he has obtained the use of these thousands of provinces, which can save the lives of thousands of soldiers.
"This is a great joy, the chief of staff will contact the first military region of Gannan for a while, first escort this group of military workers and their families, and medicines to a safe place, and tell Yachen to let him send a cavalry unit to escort these medicines to the Shengshan fortress quickly, now the third and fourth divisions and the Japanese army are fighting fiercely, the casualties must be very serious, the medicine must be very short, the medicine arrives earlier, the life of a soldier can be saved."
"The commander-in-chief has already made contact with Commander Wang Yachen of the First Military Region just now, and he has now summoned tens of thousands of people to wait for us in Gannan County on the other side of the river!"
"Tens of thousands? Why are so many people forced to do so? Hearing so many people, Meng Qingshan was startled and hurriedly asked.
"Commander-in-chief, don't worry, this is all voluntary by the fellow villagers, as soon as they heard that they were doing things for the Anti-Japanese Federation, they all actively participated, this is because Comrade Yachen was afraid that the Japanese army was nervous, so he brought these people here, otherwise there could be more."
"Well, the chief of staff immediately ordered Fang Zhensheng to transport the food and gold we needed to Gannan County with the ships we captured, and we can't let the people wait, let them move, and transport them a little bit by little, I knew that it would be better not to blow up the railway, and we can only rely on manpower, but fortunately, our military-civilian relations have developed very well, and Yachen is worthy of being an old revolutionary, and he can gather so many people in less than three days of mobilization time, which is really hard for him."
"Commander-in-chief, I'll go." Liu Yalou walked out of the door after speaking.
Watching Liu Yalou walk out of the door, Meng Qingshan sat on the chair and gradually smirked, this time the dangerous move was the right move, captured the important town of Qiqihar in the north of the Japanese army, solved the Japanese army's crusade, and also obtained the materials needed by the Anti-Japanese Federation, it was really a double win, and now Meng Qingshan is worried about how to transport these things back, these things are not a small amount, and they can not be transported in a day or two.
