Chapter 278: The Smoke Rises
At present, the Soviet side and the Northeast Army are in a stalemate, and neither side has launched a major offensive in the vicinity of Harbin. Before they set off, Zhang Xueliang had already issued them a pass, and the soldiers sent Zhang Zuoxiang a notice to take over the defense.
Even so, some veterans who had spent time in Mukden City recognized some of the soldiers of the First Army! Seeing that the First Army was coming, the eyes of those soldiers of the Northeast Army lit up! Do they know that this first army is faintly the strongest army in the Northeast Army!
Since they are here, then there will definitely be no problems in Harbin! They are even willing to recover those lost territories, although they are not a group of good soldiers, but they are always a group of men with a handle! After all, it was not a taste in my heart to fight like this.
And now the First Army is their hope to be able to be ashamed, so the news of the arrival of the First Army quickly spread throughout the garrison of Harbin! Those dejected soldiers of the Northeast Army finally flashed a glimmer of light in their eyes!
At this time, Tu Qianjun had already arrived in the garrison headquarters under their escort for more than ten years. Here, he met Zhang Zuoxiang, who was now in charge of military and political affairs in Harbin.
From last year to this year, it has only been a year, but Zhang Zuoxiang seems to be much older. In this humble office, the veteran of the Feng Department watched Tu Qianjun remain silent for a long time.
After being silent for a long time, Zhang Zuoxiang sighed deeply and said to Tu Qianjun in a deep voice: "Junzi, he relayed everything you said to Xiaohou to me. We're old people, and we're still not as far as you see......"
Tu Qianjun was silent when he heard Zhang Zuoxiang's words, he knew that Zhang Zuoxiang was actually for the sake of good. After all, it is always Feng himself who suffers from such a fight with the Soviet Union, and it may even lead to Nanjing taking advantage of the weakness of Feng to find some excuse to go to war directly!
He Jiang Zhongzhen really did such a thing! Later, Jiang Zhongzheng beat the rabbit with grass and "easily" relieved Wang Jialie, who carried out his order to "suppress bandits" at that time. At the beginning, it was Li Zhonggong who was sent by Jiang Zhongzheng and forced the king to choose one of the military and political affairs.
At the same time, Yan Daogang, on behalf of Jiang Zhongzheng, came forward to make political transactions with He Zhizhong and Bai Huizhang, the two division commanders of the Wang Division, to urge him to oppose the king. Wang Jialie was forced to resign as provincial chairman by telegram. Jiang Zhongzheng is overjoyed!
On the Suifenhe side, the Northeast Army began to be shelled by the Soviet army from the beginning of the war. However, although the Soviet army has launched several attacks until now, it has not been able to invade due to the stubborn resistance of the Northeast Army.
Subsequently, the Soviets claimed that the squadron on the Xingkai Lake side attacked Iraq
The Soviets attacked in the name of self-defense. The attack was carried out by the Soviet Coastal State Army and the 1st Pacific Sniper Division.
After the statement, the Soviets began to bombard Mishan, which was occupied by a mixed force of cavalry and soldiers. Soviet records in this battle show that the Northeast Army suffered more than 1,500 casualties and 135 prisoners. The Soviets captured 6 machine guns, 6 mortars, 500 horses and a large number of classified documents!
And so far, the entire war has consumed more than 10 million yuan of military spending! This has dealt another huge blow to the economy of Northeast China, which has just improved a little, and the desertion and panic caused by the war have also spread across the Northeast.
And Tu Qianjun heard Zhang Zuoxiang's words at this time, but he smiled slightly and said softly: "Uncle Fu Chen is just too worried about my Manchurian affairs, so he ignores the powerful relationship in it. Actually, I didn't agree to go to war at first, but now that we're fighting, we can't just walk away......"
Hearing Tu Qianjun's words, Zhang Zuoxiang couldn't help but be silent, in fact, how could he, Zhang Zuoxiang, want to go away like this? ! But the reality is that the Northeast Army is now qualified to fight?! The internal economy was in disarray, and the morale of the army was sluggish.
Externally, there are two giants, Wang Jingwei and Jiang Zhongzheng, eyeing each other! Especially Jiang Zhongzheng, what did he say about touching 100,000 troops and giving millions of military expenses, but when the war started, at the beginning of Shi Yousan's rebellion, Mao didn't see a single one!
In the final analysis, what he Jiang Zhongzheng means is that he hopes that the Northeast Army and the Soviet Union will fight cleanly! So he can come and clean up the mess!
And some front-line generals of the Northeast Army are also not angry, because some of the officers are bandits or the atmosphere of old-style warlords is serious, which leads to their front-line Aunt Bao's wife playing mahjong and having fun, but the military does not care at all. The defenders of the northeast and western front were forced to retreat east of Hailar and the line of Xing'anling and Boketu from the line of Manchuria and Mohe.
Zhang Xueliang even asked the officers and soldiers of the Mohe direction to protect the merchants and people to retreat to Nenjiang in order to get food. In view of this, in addition to asking the envoys stationed abroad to inform the great powers of the Soviet Union's aggression and to lodge a complaint with the League of Nations and the Non-War Pact Organization, and to demand that all countries jointly impose sanctions on the Soviet Union, the Nanjing Government was left to entrust the German government with a note to the Soviet Union, asking the Soviet side to take into account the provisions of the Non-War Pact, accept the Chinese side's suggestion, and retreat their troops from the border for a distance of 30 miles.
Of course, Zhang Xueliang no longer had hope in Nanjing's efforts. That's why there was the scene in the Tiger Hall when Tu Qianjun returned.
At this time, Zhang Zuoxiang smiled slightly after hearing Tu Qianjun's words, and said in a deep voice to Tu Qianjun: "Junzi, everything you want us to prepare is already in the warehouse!" It can be used at any time, and as for those war materials, they were originally sealed in this Harbin city. I'll take you to it in a moment. ”
With that, Zhang Zuoxiang stood up and slowly walked out of his desk. Tu Qianjun got up with Zhang Zuoxiang with a smile, and walked to the door to open the door for Zhang Zuoxiang.
Then Zhang Zuoxiang smiled and took Tu Qianjun out of the office and went to the current military warehouse in Harbin.
And after arriving at the warehouse, Tu Qianjun was completely shocked! It is densely packed with piles of strategic materials, and in addition to guns and shells, there are neatly stacked grains in cloth bags!
The rest of the quilts, cement, sapper shovels...... And so on military products piled up all over the warehouse! Tu Qianjun looked at Zhang Zuoxiang with wide eyes, he didn't expect that this old general would leave him so many things!
Just those bullets, Tu Qianjun has determined that there are at least more than a thousand boxes based on visual inspection! And the rest of the supplies are simply countless, so I saw Zhang Zuoxiang solemnly raise his hand behind him!
Immediately, Zhang Zuoxiang's adjutant took a document bag and handed it to Zhang Zuoxiang, and Zhang Zuoxiang took the document bag and handed it over directly to Tu Qianjun! The rest, more on that later! was refuted by Tu Qianjun's meal, and Lu Ronghuan had to be silent. Then he watched with resentment as Tu Qianjun's large army demolished this Middle East Road! It's a joy to dismantle!
And the position was reinforced by rails and sleepers, and in the eyes of the officers and men of the First Army, there was finally a trace of fortification, and the ash piled up in the warehouse was not wasted! In some areas it was made into permanent fortifications, and the ash was used for it.
At this time, the commander of the Special Far Eastern Army of the Red Banner of the Soviet Union, which was specially established by the Soviet Union for the Middle East Road. Konstantinovich. General Blyukhel!
This general is now quietly observing the First Army of Tu Qian's Army in Harbin with his subordinates, and constantly mobilizing troops to march towards Harbin from the front line of Manchuria!
Vassili. Konstantinovich. Blyukher, who served as the general military adviser of the National Revolutionary Army under the pseudonym Galen, participated in the Chinese Revolution and the Northern Expedition, and guided the Red to launch the Nanchang Uprising. He had the miracle of defeating a mechanized White Guard army equipped with a large number of tanks and armored vehicles with an infantry division! Known as the "soul of the Far Eastern Army"!
Profound knowledge, insight into the situation before him, decisive and deliberate determination, confidence in his own army, strict inspection of his subordinate commanders, etc., were all outstanding merits of Blyukhel as commander-in-chief in all the campaigns of this period.
The Soviet Government spoke highly of the Far Eastern Special Army's bold action on the Middle East Road and awarded him the Order of the Red Banner. Although the Battle of the Middle East Road was not yet over, the Central Executive Committee of the Soviet Union awarded him the newly established Order of the Red Star on May 13, 1930 in recognition of the outstanding leadership of the commander of the army, Blyukher.
At this time, the Soviet Union had not yet restored the military rank system, and the general still did not have any military rank.
And at this time, the Soviet army was also star-studded! Vasily, who later became famous for his devotion to Stalingrad. Ivanovich. Chuikov was engaged in the collection and collation of intelligence on the staff officers of the army group, and was directly responsible to the commander of the army group, Blyukhel, Konstantin Brown. Konstantinovich. Rokossovsky was the commander of the 5th brigade of the Kuban cavalry!
Now, this army is slowly searching and moving in the direction of Harbin! The Japanese have always rushed forward when they see the benefits, and retreat when they are in danger. These cowards, we don't have to care about what they do at all. Just attack the way we do it. I don't believe that the Northeast Army will be able to draw much strength to fight. ”
Lyukhel couldn't help but nod when he heard Chuikov's words, in fact he also scoffed at the combat effectiveness of the Northeast Army! However, the loss of hundreds of people directly annihilated tens of thousands of troops! What kind of combat effectiveness does such a unit have?!
Yes, Lyukhel smiled and said to Chuikov: "Then, Ivanovich! Let your comrades get ready to go! Finish this battle as soon as possible, and we can go back home! After all, domestic construction and production still need manpower! ”
Chuikov nodded, and then went down to give the order. Lyuhel was left alone in the headquarters to continue studying the map.
At this time, Harbin City also welcomed a group of special guests! This group of guests was dressed in casual clothes, but the fierce aura knew at a glance that they were elite soldiers! They did not enter the city of Harbin, but were stopped at the city gate.
I saw Qi Mudeng, the commander of the Second Division of the First Army, looking at the silent team at the city gate with a blue face, and a sturdy man with slender hands in the leader of the team also glared at Qi Muden with weak eyes.
"Qi Cheng!! You little bastard! You want to your dad off to death?! Then he saw Qi Muden roaring angrily at the man with slender hands: "You are the only seedling in your family!" It's so easy to go back, what are you still doing?! Don't you know how much the commander has eaten for your business?! What's the trouble you're looking for?! Hurry up and fuck off!! ”
This leading man is Qi Mudeng's brother of the same clan, Qi Cheng! And behind him are the men of the First Army who have been disqualified from coming to Harbin for various reasons! I saw that they were dressed in civilian clothes, but they stood silently at the gate of the city in a neat military posture.
Qi Cheng heard Qi Mudeng's roar, and was silent for a while before he said softly to Qi Mudeng: "Brother, I went back and thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure it out!" Why do you have to go home with the army?! Aren't our men the ones with the handle?! Aren't our men from the First Army?! Why are the brothers watching us?! ”
As he spoke, Qi Cheng ripped his shirt with red eyes, and said "stab~", pointing to the dense scars on it, and roared at Qi Mudeng: "I'm also a man with a handle!" Suppress bandits, fight stone friends three! Did I the hell?! There's a scar on your back?! Why is Lao Tzu not qualified to come to this battle?! ”
Saying that, Qi Cheng took a deep breath and said fiercely to Qi Mudeng: "When I joined our First Army, I was in order to be the commander of the country!" This time I have a chance, you let me go home?! You might as well let me die!! ”
Qi Mudeng's face changed violently when he heard Qi Cheng's words, and it took a while before he scolded Qi Cheng fiercely: "What are you dying?!" Your *** going back to study will also help our First Army! Come on! Come on! No more nonsense! Hurry up and take these children to fuck me off!! ”
"We're not leaving!!" A man who failed the assessment sat on the ground like a scoundrel! As if he didn't leave after beating me to death, he said to Qi Mudeng: "Commander! Beat me to death! If you don't kill me, I'll come back!" Even if it's a dead man, he is willing to die in Harbin! Lao Tzu won't leave!! ”
Qi Muden looked at this kid with a smile and a smile, he knew this kid! named Liang Dashan turned out to be a bastard under Zhang Zongchang, who joined in during the Jinan Campaign, and this time he failed to pass the assessment and was brushed down because of his physical fitness.
"What kind of mess are you kid?! Didn't you fail the assessment?! ”
"What if you don't pass?! Division, it's not like I haven't fought before! You watched me kill the Battle of Jinan! Liang Dashan shouted at Qi Muden with red eyes!
"It's not okay to fight, let's be cannon fodder?! I'm holding a grenade to blow up Lao Maozi's tank?! Even if I die, I have to die with my brothers! ”
