At 8 o'clock in the evening of 1 April, in accordance with the order of Senior General Umezu Mijiro, the Japanese troops forced their way across the Songhua River at 8 o'clock under the cover of heavy artillery fire on the south bank and more than a dozen aircraft. In order to carry out this forced crossing, in the shortest possible time, to defeat the garrison of the Chinese people, the Japanese concentrated a large number of warships to transport troops, and the first wave concentrated the transportation of a wing of troops.

It's just that what puzzled Lieutenant General Hattori Shotaro, the commander of the Japanese army's eastern road Songhua Jiangbei, was that the opponent did not make any defense against the natural danger of the Songhua River. The 25th Wing of the 11th Division, commanded by Hattori Kotaro, was the vanguard and landed on the north bank of the Songhua River without encountering any resistance.

The success of the first battle made the cautious Hattori Kotaro suddenly become stable. On the one hand, he ordered the 25th Wing Haiquan George Dazuo not to stay, and divided into three roads to sweep to the north shore with all his might. On the one hand, in addition to letting the Jing'an Division of the puppet Manchu Army, which was the second echelon, cross the river to cooperate with the 25th Wing to sweep the north bank, the 32nd Wing of the 25th Division of the third echelon immediately crossed the river from Yilan and advanced northward

Although they knew that the Japanese army would attack after the bombing, Meng Qingshan and others never expected that the Japanese army would attack in the evening after the bombing, Meng Qingshan also further improved the combat deployment at the headquarters and Zhou Baozhong, Liu Yalou and others, and at this time, the second division under the leadership of Zhang Yunzhi built fortifications in the Qunce Mountains, Meng Qingshan set up the battlefield on the east road in the Qunce Mountains early in the morning, relying on the mountains and mountains to firmly block the Japanese army's offensive pace here. The Second Division, under the leadership of division commander Zhang Yunzhi, also built a large number of well-concealed traps along the line of Qunce Mountain. In addition, relying on mines brought from the arsenal. A large density of minefields is formed on the front of the trenches.

Qi Zhizhong of the Second Military Region also led the villagers to move from village to village with the fighters of the Anti-United Nations, "Fellow villagers. Fellow, open the door," a soldier knocked on the door of a farmhouse.

"Who. What's the matter? So anxious," came a middle-aged woman from the yard.

"Squeak!" The courtyard gate was opened. I saw a fighter wearing a gray cotton coat and a red five-pointed star on his hat standing at the door of his house.

"Ah, it turned out to be a comrade of the Anti-Japanese Federation! Why didn't you say it earlier. Come, comrade, come in and sit down, it's cold outside, come in and drink hot water to warm up. "Seeing outside the door is to send them food, build houses, divide land, and rescue them from the hands of the demons. The middle-aged woman immediately greeted warmly.

"No, fellow, we still have a task. Do you remember the other day when the political workers called on everyone to prepare for the transfer? Just now the military region has issued an order, and the devils are about to sweep the base area, and I am here to inform you, hurry up and pack up your things at home, and prepare to move with everyone to the rear. Seeing the enthusiastic fellow, the warrior embarrassedly refused.

"That's right! Homosexuals. I'm sorry for you, so I'm going to pack my things. The kid's father, ready to pack up his things, the little devil is coming. Let's follow the comrades of the Anti-Japanese Union to transfer. Just as the warrior turned around. There was a sound of tidying up in the courtyard.

"Fellow, we received an order from headquarters. Immediately transfer with you, the devil's troops are about to fall here. It's about to turn into a battlefield. Similarly, a soldier said to an old man who was turning over the soil in the yard.

"Why transfer. Didn't you Anti-Japanese League claim to be a team of ordinary people, specifically protecting us? How the devil came. Run. You want to take us out of your home! I'm not leaving, and I still have a lot of food at home. How do you let me transfer, I think your anti-union is good, just like the Northeast Army a few years ago, you ran away when you saw a little devil. The old man pushed the soldier out of the door.

"Fellow, the devil is very cruel, if you don't transfer, let the little devil catch it, it will be very miserable, how much food is there at home! We will help you hide first, if you lose it, we will accompany you twice, in short, you must be transferred immediately before the devil comes, otherwise you will be in danger, there are several villages in Suibin that have been slaughtered by the little devils. Listening to the old man's words, the warrior said anxiously.

"Really?" The old man opened the door and asked.

"Really, the little devil really slaughtered the village."

"I'm not asking about this, I'm asking if the grain is lost, will you really pay me double?"

Hearing the old man's words, the little soldier was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said, "Really, uncle, our commander-in-chief personally gave the order." ”

"Okay, what are you doing in a daze! Hurry up and help me clean up, clean up, I burned everything that I couldn't take away, and I couldn't leave anything for the little devil. The old man threw away his hoe, turned around and pushed out a small cart in a corner, put his belongings on the cart and urged, it seemed that it was already ready.

"Okay!"

"Zhang Shuonan, how are the fellows preparing?"

"Company commander, everything is ready, we can go."

"Then hurry up and let the sixth platoon of Zhou Xing be in charge of the break, this is the last village that has not been transferred, we must protect the people."

At the same time, the Japanese army's sweeping force was divided into several squads, with the cooperation of the Jing'an Army, swept around to clear obstacles for the follow-up troops, and was responsible for sweeping to Ping'an Township, and the Yamamoto squadron passed by three or four villages along the way, thinking that they would eat a hot meal, and they were holding a woman in their arms to take a good rest, but when they arrived at these villages, they found that they were all in ruins, the wells were blocked with stones, the houses were lit with fire, and there was nothing left for the Japanese army, which made Captain Yamamoto very angry.

A company commander of the Jing'an Army who led the way saw that the commander of the devil was in a bad mood, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Don't worry about Yamamoto Taijun, the people of China will only run away, not the samurai!" ”

Yamamoto was annoyed, thinking that this puppet army company commander was sarcastic about him, and shouted angrily: "Yaga! As he spoke, he slapped the puppet company commander hard. This time he used enough strength to hit half of the puppet army company commander's cheeks swollen and high.

The company commander of the puppet army was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "Xie Taijun rewarded the beating!" Xie Taijun rewarded! ”

Yamamoto laughed when he saw it, and his mood suddenly improved, and he said, "Yo Xi! Lisan, your, the best dog in Great Japan! ”

The company commander of the puppet army hurriedly squeezed out a smile from his face and said: "Taijun has won the award, Taijun has won the award, and it is the glory of Li's life to be able to become a loyal dog and horse of the imperial army." ”

"Report, Captain Yamamoto, the front reconnaissance spearhead found a village, found people moving in it, and when he heard the village where people were moving, Yamamoto was overjoyed when he heard it: "Yo Xi! Li Sang, your troops will open the way for the Imperial Japanese Army, hurry up! ”

The company commander of the puppet army surnamed Li leaned on his legs, straightened his chest, and shouted: "Haiyi! Then he ran to the front and led the way. This guy's cheap appearance may have annoyed God, he just walked on the edge of the grove when he tripped over a dead tree trunk and rolled on the ground, and here it was downhill, and I don't know if the body of this puppet army company commander is flexible or sensitive, I saw that he turned his body into a ball and went down the slope.

"Li San's walk is very special."

The anti-union fighters who stayed in the village after the interruption were erecting the wall to clear the field, "Platoon commander, platoon commander, no, the little devil is here, and he is about to enter the village." ”

"What little devils, are the little devils on the other side of the river, what nonsense are you talking about...... Yes! What are you talking about, little devil ......" Zhou Xing, the platoon commander of the fifth company and sixth platoon of the third regiment of the Second Military Region, who suddenly reacted, quickly turned around and asked.

"Leopard, what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and report to the company commander, tell him that the little devil is coming after him, ask him to prepare early, and the black bear will gather the team immediately." Zhou Xing hurriedly ordered, and after speaking, he took out a monocular of my glasses and climbed the roof of a house with a ladder.

"My mother, there are so many people, and there are heavy machine guns ......" looked at the neat marching army of the Japanese army outside by the moonlight, a distance of nearly 200 meters, and there were more than 200 puppet troops in front of them, Zhou Xing exhaled a breath of cold air, in this group of Japanese troops, there were rare heavy machine guns, mortars, this must be a reinforced squadron of little devils, and there are so many puppet troops, if they catch up with the transferred team, the company commander and the people will be in danger.
