Chapter 599: The War of Resistance Falls

。 It turned out that after Song Zhewu led his troops to retreat from the ambush, he did not lead his troops to cover near Qiqihar, but took advantage of the fact that the Japanese army was still searching for his whereabouts, taking advantage of the fast movement of the cavalry troops, leaving Xie Ke, Su Bingwen, and Zhang Dianjiu to defend Qiqihar to attract Banyuan, while he and Liang Zhongjia led their troops to penetrate the double castle and pounce on the second division of Duomen. zzwwzz

Although Han Guangdi's Jiangbei Column was also an elite general, Bi Jing had a small number of entries, and he originally thought that the Harbin Northeast Army with Li Du and Ding Chao would attack many doors with him on both sides, so that they would have an advantage in terms of troops. Moreover, Han Guangdi fought with the Japanese army in Siping for more than a month, and he was confident that the Jiangbei Column, composed of veterans of the Fourth Route Army and veterans of the Seventh Brigade, was no worse than the Japanese army in terms of military quality and weaponry. Moreover, now they still have a certain amount of air support to block the possibility of Shiwan Spring of the Duomen Division.

But what he never expected was that Duomen firmly blocked the Northeast Army with only one wing, and invested most of the troops in the Twin Castles, so that the strength of the Duomen Second Division was almost completely pressed on the Jiangbei Column.

After several days of hard fighting with Duomen, the Jiangbei Column suffered heavy casualties and was gradually exhausted. The Japanese army hiding in the twin castles took advantage of the situation at this time, and Han Guangdi had no choice but to withdraw from the siege.

At this time, Song Zhewu and Liang Zhongjia led their troops to arrive in time and launched a fierce attack on many divisions.

Unfortunately, in the end, Duomen led the remnants of half a division to break through the defense line of the Northeast Army in Gulin in the east and fled back to Gulin.

The Eighth Division led by Nishi Yoshiichi, after learning that Song Zhewu was attacking the Second Division of Duomen in the south, according to the order of Honjo Shigeru, quickly turned around and headed straight to the southeast direction of Shuangci, and after the breakthrough of Duomen, Nishi Yoshiichi had already rushed to Anda County. After learning the news of the breakthrough of Duomen, Xi Yiyi did not dare to go deep alone, and the Eighth Division had to urgently turn around and retreat westward.

At this point, the battle for the defense of Harbin came to an end.

With the cooperation of the Northeast Army, Song Zhewu annihilated more than 12,000 Japanese troops in two battles, and this huge result made Li Du, Ding Chao and others excited. Therefore, Song Zhewu's suggestion that they should withdraw from Harbin and transfer to North Manchuria for a long-term war of resistance was ignored, and instead suggested that the Fourth Route Army and the Northeast Army join forces to hold Harbin.

Prior to this, there was a cabinet change in Japan, and the cabinet of Inukai Takeshi came to power.

Inukai is the sixth president of the Constitutional Political Friends Association. Commonly known as Senjiro. No. Wood Hall. He was a veteran of the Meiji, Taisho, and Showa dynasties, a well-known political party politician, and a major leader of the Constitutional Protection Movement. It is a close friend of Sun Yat-sen, and even the name Sun Yat-sen is the name of the former Japanese minister of literature and culture.

In 193, because of the London Naval Treaty, he and Hatoyama Ichiro jointly challenged the government on the grounds of signing a contract with the command of the military department. This incident made the military department realize that it could use the commander Quan Qianshi as an excuse, laying the groundwork for the assassination of Inuyang Yi later.

After the September 18 Incident, he slyly advocated exchanging the formal sovereignty of Northeast China for the actual domination of Northeast China's economic interests, and then legitimizing political, economic, and military interests in Manchuria. Achieve the goal of occupying and ruling Manchuria for a long time.

But his strategy of "boiling a frog in warm water" was not accepted by the Japanese right-wing forces.

At this time, the activities of militarists in Japan were rampant, and in order to appease the anger of the military, Inukai was forced to agree to the request of the military headquarters to increase troops in Manchuria and began to increase troops to the northeast. It's just that Inuyang Yi adopted a delaying tactic, and whenever the pressure on the military department increased, he approved the dispatch of additional troops, but each time the additional troops were the size of a detachment or brigade. zzwwzz, for example, the Eighth Division was sent in batches.

This not only made the Japanese military angry, but also made the Japanese right-wing organizations angry, and the Sakura Society and the Blood Alliance threatened to assassinate Inuyangyi. …,

After the total annihilation of the Matsuo Division and the heavy failure of the Duomen Division's attack on Harbin, the right-wing forces could no longer bear their anger, and the members of the Blood Alliance, naval officers Hiroshi Yamagishi and Takushi Mikami, led the way into the prime minister's residence, and shot and killed Inuyangyi.

After Inuyoyi was killed, the Minister of Finance, Takahashi, was the acting prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, and under the pressure of the military department and right-wing forces, he had to agree to a large-scale increase in troops to the northeast, and Japan's war machine began to work at high speed, and the militaristic fascist forces completely dominated Japan from then on.

As a result, the Japanese Army's 0th Division, Matsui's 8th Mixed Brigade, the 19th Division's 38th Brigade, the main force of the 0th Guanglai Division, the 19th Division's Majima Dispatch Team, the Matsuki 4th Division, the 1st Cavalry Brigade, the 4th Cavalry Brigade, the 4th Mixed Brigade, the Sakamoto 6th Division, and the 0th, 11th, and 2nd Aerospace Brigades entered the east in a short period of time

Except for the 19th Division, which was stationed in western Liaoning, the rest of the Japanese army was deployed in Gulin and southern Heilongjiang, and the front of the troops was directed at Harbin Haoqihar.

In view of the fact that the Japanese army was heavily concentrated in North Manchuria, and it was unlikely that the existing forces would seek another opportunity to annihilate the enemy on a large scale, Song Zhewu had no choice but to lead his troops to withdraw to Wuchagou and establish a base area on a large scale in the mountains of North Manchuria, reserve military supplies, and prepare for a long-term war of resistance.

Because Song Zhewu inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army and the situation in the northeast was good for a while, Ma Zhanshan did not make a fake surrender as in the original history, but led his troops back to Qiqihar again. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek, who had returned to power, officially issued an order appointing Ma Zhanshan as the chairman of Heilongjiang Province.

Qiqihar is the capital of Heilongjiang, and Ma Zhanshan naturally wants to take back jurisdiction as soon as he arrives. In view of the actions of Xie Ke, Su Bingwen, and Zhang Dianjiu after the Jiangqiao Anti-Japanese War, Ma Zhanshan made it difficult for Xie Ke and others to enter everywhere. Xie Ke, Su Bingwen, and Zhang Dianjiu were furious, and led their troops to Wuchagou to announce their separation from the Northeast Army and join the Fourth Route Army.

Due to the repeated defeats of the Kwantung Army and the fact that some high-ranking officials of the Japanese Cabinet had long been deeply dissatisfied with the September 18 Incident launched by Honjo Shigeru without authorization, Honjo Shigeru was transferred back to China and served as a military senator. In the following year, he was transferred to the chief military attache of the emperor's chamberlain and promoted to general. He was made a baron in 1935 and forced to retire the following year.

Nobuyoshi Muto, who had served as the commander of the Kwantung Army, took office again and succeeded Shigeru Honjo.

After Muto Nobuyoshi arrived in the northeast, he adopted the strategy of defending the north and attacking the east, and still mainly lured the surrender of Ma Zhanshan in Qiqihar, while the resistance of the Northeast Army led by Li Du and Ding Chao in Harbin showed no mercy and launched a fierce attack.

Under the heavy attack of the prepared Japanese army, Harbin only defended for two years, and the Japanese broke through the position, and Li Du had to order the evacuation of Harbin.

Li Du led his troops to retreat to Yilan, Feng Zhanhai led his troops to retreat to the Fangzheng area, Xing Zhanqing and Zhao Yi led his troops to withdraw to Hadong, and stationed in the areas of Jiaxin and Yuanbao Town.

Li Du, Xing Zhanqing, Feng Zhanhai, Zhao Yi and others basically preserved the troops, the worst was Ding Chao, his headquarters was located in Daoli, under the instruction of Zhang Jinghui, Yu Jingtao led the anti-water police corps to take Ding Chao's headquarters, Ding Chao only escaped with the guards in a hurry, and most of his 8 brigades were disarmed by the police corps. In the end, Ding Chao only closed to about 1,000.

After occupying Harbin, the Japanese army lost confidence in Ma Zhanshan, whose attitude had always been ambiguous, and began to turn around against Ma Zhanshan.

Qiqihar Ma Zhanshan withdrew again and insisted on resisting the Japanese in the Hailun area. Since then, the Japanese army has taken control of all large and medium-sized cities in the northeast and completed the occupation of the northeast.

On March 1, under the planning of Tu Feiyuan, the last emperor Aixin Jueluo? Pu Yi secretly arrived in Northeast China on a Japanese warship from Yaojin, established the puppet state of Manchukuo, and designated Changchun as the "national capital" and renamed it "Xinjing".

By 1944, the urban area of Changchun had expanded to 80 square kilometers, with an entrance of 2.17 million, surpassing the entrance of the Tokyo metropolitan area, and it was known as the largest metropolis in Asia. …,

After that, the Japanese army focused its main efforts on clearing out the surging anti-Japanese volunteers in various places, trying to stabilize the rule of the occupied areas first.

At this time, the volunteers of the three northeastern provinces had grown to 26 routes, with nearly 300,000 members.

Liaoning's Volunteer Army is mainly formed by Huang Xiansheng's police force, as well as ** and civilian forces, and its combat effectiveness is relatively weak. The volunteers in Gulin and Heilongjiang were mainly composed of the former Northeast Army, and their combat effectiveness was relatively strong, so the volunteers in Gulin and Heilongjiang provinces naturally became the first targets of the Japanese army.

Li Du's self-defense army held out until January 1933, when the Japanese army cleared Li Du's troops along the Muling River to Hulin and Mishan, the Japanese army's right flank from Suifenhe occupied Bamian City and Dongning, and surrounded Li Du's subordinate Liu Wankui's troops at the Xiaosuifen River, and Liu Bei surrendered. Li Du, who was heavily surrounded by the Japanese army, had no choice but to lead more than 3,000 people to retreat into the Soviet Union. In May of the same year, he left his army and returned to China under the pretense of Europe.

Feng Zhanhai once organized a team to counterattack Harbin, and once annihilated thousands of Japanese puppet troops. This made Muto very annoyed and determined to eliminate Feng Zhanhai first.

Under the large-scale attack of the Japanese army, Feng Zhanhai had no choice but to evacuate Fangzheng and turn to Xiajiang.

In April of the same year, the Gulin Self-Defense Army organized a counteroffensive and led the army into the area of Xiangfang, Harbin.

Feng Zhanhai immediately led the army to the south to attack, the team grew rapidly, and at most more than 10,000 people entered, renamed Gulin to save **, Feng Zhanhai appointed himself as the commander-in-chief, and also launched a counteroffensive against Gulin City, the capital of the pseudo-Gulin Province. Due to the lone battle, the counter-aid was not good, and the siege was unsuccessful and turned to Rehe.

When the Guhei Self-Defense Army counterattacked Harbin, Xing Zhanqing served as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Middle Route Army, attacking the Zhuhe River, destroying 20 enemy Japanese troops, more than 0 puppet troops, and capturing 50 puppet troops. However, the Middle Route Army also suffered more than 200 casualties. Later, due to the loss of food and ammunition, the Middle Route Army withdrew to Gudong.

In July 1933, he led his troops into the Soviet Union, and then entered Xinjiang and stationed in Ili

After Zhao Yi and Zhao Yi's troops entered Hadong, the morale of the various departments of the Self-Defense Army was low for a while, and Chen Decai, the head of the 663rd Regiment, took the opportunity to instigate his subordinates to squeeze out Zhao Yi. During the Rehe Anti-Japanese War, he was ordered to enter Rehe to organize the anti-Japanese war of various units of the Volunteer Army, and after the fall of Rehe, he was transferred to the deputy commander and chief of staff of the 112th Division of the Northeast Army.

The Japanese army raided Yilan from the waterway, the base camp of the Self-Defense Army was lost, and Li Du withdrew to Lishu Town, regrouping his troops and horses to resist the enemy. At this time, Ding Chao parted ways with Li Du, led the guards to withdraw to Baoqing, and secretly sent a pseudo-persuasion representative to contact him on the same day. At the end of 1932, the Japanese puppet army invaded Xiajiang and along the Hasui Road, and the self-defense army was not supported and dispersed one after another, and Li Du led the remnants to cross the river into the Soviet Union. Ding Chao accepted the Japanese pseudo-persuasion conditions in Baoqing.

After Ding Chao surrendered to the enemy, the Japanese puppet did not trust him, and gave him an idle errand entrusted by the General Affairs Department to be an adviser, until August 1938, he was appointed as the governor of the puppet Tonghua Province, and in August of the following year, he was transferred to the puppet Anton Province. At the end of the two terms of governorship, he was reduced to his post and transferred to the puppet Senate until the fall of the puppet Manchukuo.

Muto attached great importance to Ma Zhanshan, and sent the main force of the Matsuki Division to attack head-on, and the Hirose Division to blockade the two rivers and bomb them with planes along the way. In late July 32, near Liujiadian, it was flanked by the Japanese two brigades of Pinghe and Pingsong, and the whole army was defeated.

Ma Zhanshan only carried dozens of people into the deep mountains and dense forests, and then made a detour to Hailar through Longmen Town, and then entered the interior through Northern Mongolia. He was appointed a member of the Military Commission of the National Government.

By 33 years, the main forces of the anti-Japanese forces in the Northeast, that is, the Northeast Volunteer Army, were basically wiped out or dispersed by the Japanese army.

It is worth mentioning the fate of the Volunteers, who retreated to the territory of the USSR.

The Nationalist Government engaged in arduous negotiations with the Soviet Government, which hoped that the Soviet Union would transfer the Volunteers to Northern Mongolia via Siberia. …,

But the Soviet government was categorically opposed. The reason is that they do not recognize Beimeng as a province of the Republic of China, but consider it an independent state forcibly occupied by the warlord Song Zhewu, and the Soviet government has no right to transfer the Chinese government to an independent state.

In the end, the Nationalist Government had to swallow its breath and agree to the Soviet proposal. That is, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army passed through the Siberian region of the Soviet Union and made a long journey into Xinjiang, China.

For these living expenses in the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union required the Nationalist Government to pay 3.7 million US dollars, or an average of 100 US dollars per income. However, the Soviets did not do anything when they received the money, and only provided a very limited amount of food to the volunteers and their families.

There were 40,000 volunteers who entered the territory of the Soviet Union before and after, of which more than 10,000 were infants and young children, and after arriving in Xinjiang, only more than 15,000 remained, of which many were frozen and starved to death 20 miles away from Xinjiang.

During this period, due to the lack of food, even the phenomenon of "easy to eat" occurred, and the situation was miserable. The Nationalist Government offered to add hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Soviet government to provide more food for the volunteers, that is, their families, but the Soviet government ruthlessly refused.

After basically stabilizing the rear, Muto Nobuyoshi mobilized heavy troops and began to attack the Northern Manchurian Mountains occupied by the Eastern Resistance.

For the Japanese army's offensive and suppression, Song Zhewu, Han Guangdi, and Liang Zhongjia adopted the strategy of attacking in the east and defending in the west.

In the western part of the country, with the Wuchagou Ditch backed by Northern Mongolia as the core, more than 100,000 troops took advantage of the terrain to carry out resolute defense. In the eastern mountainous areas, the various units were divided into battalions and regiments, gathering and scattering from time to time, constantly launching attacks against the Japanese troops who had cleared them, and they fought guerrilla warfare with the Japanese troops in the mountainous areas that stretched for thousands of miles.

The Japanese army launched three large-scale attacks on Wuchagou in succession, all of which ended in failure, and finally because of the lack of troops, the Japanese army had to occupy the confrontation along the Hamanchurian Railway and the Eastern Resistance Confrontation, waiting for a large increase in domestic troops.

Song Zhewu, who knew very well that he was not yet capable of conducting a large-scale battle with the Japanese army in the northeast, also instructed Han Guangdi to attack only the Japanese troops who had entered and near the mountainous areas of Beimanchu in the east, and not to fight far away from the mountainous areas.
