Chapter 1370 Thousand Riders Roll Hiraoka

Nanjing General Hospital, the third floor of the inpatient building, the war room of the temporary headquarters of the Second Route Army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Commander, good news, ten minutes ago, three 50,000-ton oil tankers successfully sank by self-explosion in the predetermined channel through timed directional blasting and other methods, blocking most of the riverway."

Liu Qing took the telegram and rushed in excitedly, but saw Fang Zhanpeng glaring at him, his right index finger standing up in front of his lips, and making a "silence" movement.

Liu Qing slowed down and turned his head to see that An Yi was asleep on the table, and more than a dozen staff officers were doing things lightly, lest they wake up An Yi.

As soon as Fang Zhanpeng and Yang Fei pulled Liu Qing to the door, An Yi sat up, stretched his waist and said, "Why is there no sound?" Is it time to get off work? ”

An Yi's witty words immediately attracted a burst of laughter, Liu Qing quickly walked in front of An Yi and handed over a telegram: "Commander, good news!" Our plan to annihilate the Japanese army in the sea can be implemented! ”

An Yi happily took the telegram, read it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, close the door and beat the dog, now that the door is closed, the next thing is to see how we can beat the dog to death with a stick...... By the way, did the two cruisers and one torpedo boat successfully enter the Yangtze River channel? ”

Liu Qing nodded: "According to the news sent back by the Air Force, all of them have successfully entered the waters of Nantong." With the speed of the three warships reaching a speed of 36 knots, it is expected to arrive at Nanjing in the evening. It's the height of summer, and with the torrential rains just now, the water level of the Yangtze River is still high, so it should be easy to enter Poyang Lake. Our navy, at last, has the most advanced warships of this era. ”

"These three warships were privately donated by Zhang Xi, and it took two and a half years to start construction in three or five years, costing hundreds of millions of dollars!"

An Yi said with some emotion: "So, sometimes friends and enemies are just a thought, if it wasn't for the happy breakup at the beginning, where would this incense come from?" Sometimes to suffer is to take advantage, it depends on how we treat it. Well, with these three warships in place and the return of more than 500 naval professionals who studied in Europe and the United States, our naval academy can also be established. ”

"The navy in Poyang Lake?" Liu Qing asked with a smile.

"That's right!" An Yi nodded: "In a short period of time, our coastal waters will still be the world of the first navy, so we can only be the Neihu navy, but one day, our navy will go to the sea, to the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and to every corner of the world's rivers and oceans, I am convinced of this!" ”

In the war room, Liu Qing, Fang Pengxiang and a staff officer, after listening to An Yi's words, their blood was gushing, and they were all fascinated by the beautiful picture painted by An Yi.

......

The sun rises in the sky, even if you are in the northernmost part of the motherland, you can clearly feel the fiery power of the sun, coupled with the long front of more than ten square kilometers, thousands of troops and horses are fighting together, artillery fire and bullets are flying everywhere, which adds to the feeling of the hot weather.

Taking advantage of the fact that all the firing points of the Japanese armored train were cleared, Hu Jiyang was overjoyed when he saw Hunting, and shouted loudly: "Old Tang, come with me to see the armored train, how about it?" ”

Tang Wen saw that the battle situation had basically stabilized, with the help of tanks and armored vehicles, and there was no doubt about taking Aihui City, so he immediately said: "Okay, let's go and have a look, but we have to tell Lao Li to pay attention, don't let the devil take advantage of the loophole." ”

The old Li in Tang Wen's mouth was Li Xiao, deputy division commander and division chief of staff, and was one of the three colonels assigned to the Fifth Division and Hu Jiyang to compete for the position of division commander, but because of Hu Jiyang's outstanding performance, Li Xiao had no choice but to succumb to the position of deputy division commander and chief of staff.

Another contender, Colonel Chen Yu, has returned to the headquarters to enrich the leadership of the regiment, and at the same time is responsible for preparing for the establishment of the Jining Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and developing the unit in accordance with the idea of building the army of Anjia.

At this time, the officers and men of the Fifth Division had already stood up from the half-squatting state suppressed by the armored train, shouted again, jumped over the heads of the puppet army who raised their hands and shouted "surrender", rushed into the city of Aihui, where the city gate was open, and started a short-handed contact battle with the Japanese army.

Because the non-commissioned officers were accompanied by a large number of submachine guns, shell pistols, and 20-millimeter anti-tank guns that did not have such a significant effect after mass production, the officers and men of the Fifth Division, like their predecessors in the fierce battle in the Guannai, still had a huge advantage in close combat against the Japanese army.

Immediately afterwards, the 13th Brigade, the 14th Brigade and the 15th Brigade quickly moved the headquarters forward, and the snipers followed the light and heavy machine guns together, rushing up to the tower, the machine gunners paid attention to suppressing the Japanese machine gun fire, and the snipers held some weapons were exaggerated, the range of the 20 mm anti-tank guns was as high as 1500 meters, and the soldiers showed their exquisite marksmanship through the scope, and cleared all the Japanese soldiers who used the hidden height of the building to shoot with Type 38 rifles as far as they could see. It provided very strong fire support to the soldiers who were fighting street battles street by street on the ground.

Hu Jiyang and Tang Wen, with the guard battalion directly under the division, under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, launched an attack on the remnants of the Japanese armored train.

After more than 10 minutes of fierce fighting, the Japanese troops on the ironclad train were basically wiped out, and the blood of the Japanese soldiers shed red on the railroad tracks and roadbed below, and the corpses were scattered from the car to the bottom of the car.

Hu Jiyang and Tang Wen jumped into the carriage one after another, as far as the eye could see, the smoke was filled, and the two walked through each carriage, and found that the armored train was really hard and thick, although the explosion looked terrifying, but the damage was not serious, and the front of the car was unscathed. In particular, the 240-mm heavy gun in front of the armored train, which had a range of 40 kilometers, was not deliberately sabotaged by the Japanese army. At the beginning, the heavy artillery of such a caliber achieved miraculous results when attacking Suifenhe, and it was widely spread within the rescue ***, and now the Fifth Division will also have this weapon, how not to make Hu Jiyang and Tang Wen ecstatic?

It is believed that as long as it undergoes some repairs, this armored train will be able to be put into the southern front battlefield as a surprise force of the Fifth Division, giving the Japanese army a greater blow.

With the fall of the fortifications, Major General Tamura Haraichi had already retreated his headquarters to a four-story building in the city, and when he heard the sound of gunfire getting closer and closer, Tamura Haraichi walked anxiously around the telecommunications room on the third floor.

One after another bad news came, one block after another was lost, seeing that Aihui City had fallen by a third, and the armored train outside the city had not moved for a long time, could it be that the armored train that the empire had worked so hard to buy from France was so vulnerable?

Although Tamura Haraichi was very reluctant to believe this fact, the silence of the armored train told him that the armored train was probably in big trouble at this moment.

"Dian Ling Iwamura Nakasa, if you can't hold on, immediately blast the armored train, and definitely can't leave it to the Shina army."

Major General Tamura Haraichi commanded with difficulty.

The communications staff officer quickly sent Tamura Haraichi's order, but soon the bad news came: "General, there is no response from the armored train brigade, it is estimated that it will ......"

"Baga!"

Tamurahara roared, "What do you estimate? ”

The communications staff officer swallowed his saliva: "It is estimated that either all the jade of the Iwamura brigade is broken, or the radio system of the armored train has been blown up and it is impossible to contact!" ”

Tamurahara sat down on the ground weakly and muttered, "What should I do? What to do? But no one in the command could answer his question.

The battle in Aihui City was in an extremely fierce state, and there was a sudden sound of a motor in the sky - the few fighters of the Kwantung Army finally rushed from Harbin Airport to the sky above Aihui City on the order of the Kwantung Army Headquarters at the moment before the city was about to be lost.

But after circling in the sky, the Japanese pilots were dumbfounded, and the Chinese and Japanese troops in the city were strangled together, and in each battle group, you have me, I have you, and it is impossible to carry out precise strikes at all.

The only one with a clear distinction between attack and defense was the Aihui Railway Station, which was located in the southeast of the city, so eight fighters adjusted their direction and rushed towards the Aihui Railway Station.

Although Aihui has only built the railway since the end of last year, in order to meet the needs of troop mobilization, the railway station has been built very large, and there are enough four trains to stay on the platform, and now there are two trains parked there in the station.

In order to protect the safety of the railway station, the mixed third brigade deployed two brigades of officers and soldiers here, and at the same time two regiments of the puppet Manchu army participated in the defense. Because the overall defense line is hidden inside the city, many light and dark pillboxes have not been destroyed by artillery fire, and the fortifications are still playing a huge role, suppressing the attack of the rescue officers and soldiers.

The 15th Brigade of the 5th Division was storming in this direction, and because there was no tank protection, it was very difficult to advance, and the direct mortar gunners who were responsible for firing directly at the Japanese fire points to knock out the Japanese bunkers had already been replaced by five, and the sixth had just fired a mortar shell to destroy a bunker, when it was hit by a rain of bullets that swept in, and the Tianling cover was overturned in half, and the whole person fell on the mortar.

"Go on!"

The commander of the 15th Brigade was stunned, but still gritted his teeth, and instructed the next mortar to take over the heavy responsibility and continue to fire at the Japanese firing points.

To save *** to gain a foothold between the large and small Xing'an Mountains, Aihui City must be occupied, even if it is a big sacrifice, it is necessary to resolutely take the railway station.

At this time, Li Xiao, deputy commander of the Fifth Division, who commanded the operation instead of Hu Jiyang, saw that the 15 th Brigade was in a bitter battle, gritted his teeth, and transferred the air defense battalion equipped with 40 Taisho Type 3 13-mm antiaircraft machine guns, 20 Type 88 75-mm antiaircraft guns, five Soviet 85-mm antiaircraft guns, and five Soviet AKT twin 37-mm antiaircraft guns.

The convoy towing antiaircraft guns and antiaircraft machine guns had just rushed into the city along the road next to the railway tracks, and rushed to a row of houses in front of the railway station, and was about to lay down the antiaircraft guns and antiaircraft machine guns for flat fire and destroy the Japanese army's frenzied firepower points, when suddenly he saw eight fighters flying in the sky, hovering in the sky with bad intentions, and the commander of the air defense battalion did not dare to slack off.

The Japanese pilots did not know at all that the mud legs below had captured a large number of Japanese anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns by capturing Jining, Suifenhe, Hulin, Linkou, Boli and other towns and fortresses, and had also received great assistance from the Soviet Far Eastern Military District.

There were eight fighters in this wave, specifically four Ki-8 Nakajima biplane fighters armed with three 7.7 mm caliber aviation machine guns, and four Ki-3 Kawasaki Jiusan single-engine biplane light crit fighters capable of carrying 500 kg bombs. The Japanese pilots lowered the height of the group to about 1,000 meters, and the fighters roared, taking the lead in swooping down on the offensive position of the Fifth Division, and the bombers also followed closely and began to enter the bomb delivery flight track.

The Japanese fighters were all covered with anti-aircraft machine gun bullets and anti-aircraft artillery shells in front of and on the left and right, and there was no way to escape, and one volley after another exploded, bursting into brilliant fireworks in the sky.

Originally, the probability of ground anti-aircraft fire hitting a fighter plane was very low, and it often took tens of thousands of bullets or shells to waste tens of thousands of bullets or shells in order to get away with hitting one, but that was when the enemy already knew that there was an air defense position on the ground and made evasions, such as reducing the fighter to the superior range of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, and slowing down the flight speed to accurately lock on to the target for attacking, under the huge anti-aircraft fire network on the ground, it was no different from suicide.

As soon as the air defense battalion of the Fifth Division appeared, it came to a full house - all in the middle!

The morale of the Japanese troops who were originally stationed at the railway station was greatly boosted when they saw the air support, and the guns and cannons were also singing with joy, firing a dense number of bullets at all moving targets, but in the blink of an eye, eight fighters exploded one after another, and the sky suddenly returned to calm, and almost no one could accept this fact.

Without the protection of fighters, coupled with the powerful power of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, the officers and men of the 15th Brigade of the Fifth Division were rescued from an unstoppable attack to break through the railway station fortifications that the Japanese army had worked hard to operate for many years.

With the capture of the station, the resistance of the Japanese troops in the city weakened again, and by one o'clock noon, the battle was completely resolved.

When the officers and men of An Jia took the four-story Japanese command building in the center of the city, they did not find any trace of the Japanese commander, and the entire building was covered in blood, filth, and intestines - almost all the officers and assistants who were mixed into the third brigade chose to end their lives by caesarean section.

After half an hour of searching, the commander of the Japanese army in Aihui was still nowhere to be found, and everyone was anxious. Just when Hu Jiyang, Li Xiao and Tang Wen, who had returned to the headquarters, got together to discuss where Tamura Haraichi was hiding, the news came that the 14th Brigade found Major General Tamura Haraichi lying in a pool of blood in the Aihui Hospital on the bank of the Heilongjiang River, 500 meters behind the headquarters-he was actually killed by his own people!

It turned out that seeing that there was no hope of victory in the battle of Aihui Castle, Tamura Haraichi first ordered all the officers of the brigade headquarters to be disemboweled, and then rushed to Aihui Hospital with four guards, and gathered more than 80 medical personnel in the entire hospital, all of whom were women as doctors and nurses, and asked them to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and end their lives by caesarean section.

Just when Tamurahara thought that these women of the empire would also happily sacrifice everything and even their lives for the emperor, the women first looked at each other and hesitated for a while, and then when they saw the painful appearance of the head nurse Ikawa, who was the oldest nurse among the nurses, who was the model nurse, when he was disemboweled, they were frightened, screamed and scattered, and ran in all directions.

Tamura Haraichi was annoyed, and immediately led the guards to hunt and kill one by one, not wanting to be threatened with death, these doctors and nurses, who had already been trained in the psychology of wounds and organs, burst out with great strength, took out all the pistols locked in the cabinet, and shot at Tamura Haraichi and his guards. At the cost of more than ten lives, he killed four guards, and finally killed Tamurahara.

Subsequently, this group of doctors and nurses surrendered to the rescue *** and were soon properly resettled - became doctors and nurses in the field hospital of the Fifth Division.

Since the beginning of the war, more than 50,000 merchants, tunmen and prisoners of war who have been captured have all been driven into various mines to serve as coal workers, gold diggers, lumberjacks and other heavy physical jobs, and some engineers and technical experts have also been organized to improve mining and logging equipment and give full play to their spare heat.

For saving ***, these people are the best labor force, why not make the best use of it? Organizing a big *** of tens of thousands of people, a breath of resentment is cathartic, but who will do all that hard work?

At this point, Aihuicheng fell into the hands of the rescue, and then with the help of the Soviet Far Eastern Military District, through the Heilongjiang water transport and the Far East railway transportation, the Japanese strongholds along the Heilongjiang River north of Aihuicheng were uprooted one by one, since then, the northern and eastern regions of Heilongjiang, from the Great Xing'an Mountains, the Small Xing'an Mountains to the Qinghei Mountain, the Sanjiang Plain, all connected with the territory of the Soviet Union, can get supplies from any place, the Kwantung Army in the northeast, encountered unprecedented trouble.
