Chapter 524: The Sorrow of the War of Resistance Ninety-One. VIII (Sat)
Hearing Wang Yizhe's voice, Zhao Zhenfan, who was in a panic, couldn't help but be sad and happy.
"Brigadier Commander, come up with an idea! The little devils have already entered the gate, and they have now rushed into the barracks of the 621st regiment, killing people on sight, and the brothers have suffered heavy casualties. Now, the little devil is closing in on the brigade headquarters. However, Chief of Staff Rong still won't let us fight back, what should we do? ”
Wang Yizhe, whose face turned pale, looked at Rong Zhen, who was dejected and gray, resisted his impulse, and said into the earpiece: "This is not to blame Chief of Staff Rong, this is an order from the young marshal, and we must resolutely implement it." ”
Zhao Zhenfan said with a crying voice: "Brigade commander, then we can't just wait here for Yu himself to kill?" If this continues, the 7th Brigade will be finished, which is the hard work we have spent several years! ”
Wang Yizhe tightened his eyebrows and shouted loudly: "Calm down! I'm not in Beidaying, you are the highest commander of the 7th Brigade in Beidaying, don't mess around. ”
"How many troops did the Kwantung Army have in attacking the North Battalion? Are we surrounded? ”
Wang Yizhe knew very well how many troops the Kwantung Army had in the vicinity of Shenyang.
In Shenyang, there is only one dissatisfied 29th Wing of the Eastern Army, which is only more than 4,000 people, and even if you count the soldiers in Shenyang, the Manchurian police, and the gendarmerie, I am afraid that it is less than 10,000. Now, he said that he not only wanted to attack Beidaying, but also attacked Shenyang City in two ways, and his troops must be very scattered. Moreover, only the 29th Wing can fight against his Seventh Brigade, and the rest of the paramilitary forces, Wang Yizhe really didn't look at it.
Under Wang Yizhe's reprimand, Zhao Zhenfan calmed down a little, but still said in a hurried tone: "The specific number of little devils who attacked the Beida camp is unknown, but the little devils who rushed into the Beida camp are about five or six hundred. The little devils shelled the Beida camp in the west and northwest directions, and no little devils have been found in other directions. ”
Five or six hundred people dared to rush into the Beida Battalion, which had more than 10,000 elite soldiers, to kill people and set fire? Wang Yizhe's face suddenly turned red, the blood vessels on his neck and the door of his head were clearly visible, jumping up, and a feeling of being humiliated instantly rushed into his mind.
The Kwantung Army, which was five or six hundred, dared to rush into his northern camp, which obviously regarded his Seventh Brigade as nothing, and did not take his Seventh Brigade into account at all.
I said that I was too deceitful! Wang Yizhe thought hatefully in his heart.
If he is allowed to fight back, in the camp of the Beida Battalion, even if his 7th Brigade meets it with bayonets, none of these hundreds of Kwantung Army will be able to escape!
Wang Yizhe took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and did not answer Zhao Zhenfan's words, but asked, "Have several regiment leaders gone back?" ”
Zhao Zhenfan replied on the phone: "Brigade commander, Zhu Zhirong, the commander of the 621st Regiment, is back, and now he is at my brigade headquarters, and it is said that the commander of the 619th Regiment is also back." Only Wang Tiehan of the 620th regiment had no news, so he called his family, and his wife said that he had arrived on horseback. ”
"Good!"
Wang Yizhe gritted his teeth and said: "Chief of Staff Zhao, since you can't fight back, and the officers and soldiers of our Seventh Brigade can't wait for death at Beidaying, you notify the troops, and all regiments will immediately disperse and evacuate Beidaying and gather at Dongshanzuizi." ”
Wang Yizhe was also very dissatisfied with Zhang Xueliang's order not to resist, but he was picked up by Zhang Xueliang, and he was deeply grateful to Zhang Xueliang for his kindness. Therefore, anyone can disobey Zhang Xueliang's orders, but he, Wang Yizhe, will never be, at least he will not disobey openly.
Of course, if Rong Zhen, the supreme military leader of the Northeast Army in the Northeast, ordered him to fight, he would still agree without hesitation. Although this is also against the order in his heart, he can give an explanation to Zhang Xueliang in this way.
However, obeying Zhang Xueliang's order does not mean that he will see the officers and soldiers of the Seventh Brigade, whom he has devoted a lot of effort to, all die tragically in the hands of the Kwantung Army in the Beida Battalion.
After putting down the phone, Wang Yizhe, who was full of shame and indignation, walked around the room a few times, and asked Rong Zhen somewhat unwillingly: "Chief of Staff, is it really just like this to let me kill my officers and soldiers and occupy Shenyang City?" ”
Seeing that Rong Zhen didn't react, Wang Yizhe continued: "I feel that a few of them are right, saying that my actions this time are different from the past, since they dare to occupy Shenyang City, then they also dare to occupy the entire Northeast, and a Shenyang City may not be able to satisfy their appetite!" Don't forget my "Tanaka Song". ”
Rong Zhen, who had calmed down a lot, understood the meaning of Wang Yizhe's words, and knew that he still wanted to fight, but Wang Yizhe was unwilling to disobey Zhang Xueliang's order.
Although Rong Zhen knew that Wang Yizhe was going to use him as a shield as a chief of staff, Rong Zhen also had the same thoughts as Wang Yizhe, and this time he looked at his posture, which was by no means as simple as just occupying Shenyang, and it was likely that this was the beginning of his real realization of "Tanaka Song".
Although Zhang Xueliang had an explicit order not to resist, it was Zhang Xueliang who had to bear the responsibility for the loss of the territory for the loss of the Northeast, but after all, he Rongzhen was the temporary military leader and actual commander of the Northeast, and the responsibility he had to bear could not be shirked in any way, and even from now on, he Rongzhen would have no prestige in the Northeast Army.
After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, Rong Zhen felt that Wang Yizhe's Seventh Brigade, if he really wanted to fight the Kwantung Army, it would not be a bad thing for him.
Although under Zhang Xueliang's repeated strict orders, the Seventh Brigade will not receive support from other Northeast Army units, and failure is certain, but this will not have any impact on him, and there will even be some benefits. In this way, he did not disobey Zhang Xueliang's order, but also gave an explanation to the Northeast Army and the Chinese people.
Of course, the premise to achieve this goal is that the 7th Brigade's resistance to the Kwantung Army was not an order explicitly given by his Rong Zhen, otherwise he would not be able to explain to Zhang Xueliang.
Rong Zhen did not answer Wang Yizhe's question immediately, but thought for a long time before he sighed, shook his head dejectedly and said, "Ding Fang, my brain is very messy now, you can do it yourself." ”
With Rong Zhen's acquiescence, Wang Yizhe was much more courageous, and picked up the phone on the table to ask for Beidaying. However, no matter how he called this time, there was no response to the phone at all.
Wang Yizhe knew that he had destroyed the telephone line, and he would not have been unclear about such military common sense.
Wang Yizhe threw down the phone and said to Rong Zhen: "I'll go back to Beidaying." Chief of Staff, you better withdraw from Shenyang as soon as possible, this is not far from Xiaoximen, Huang Xiansheng's police corps lacks training, and they can't stop the regular army of the Kwantung Army. After the Kwantung Army entered the city, it was the first place to occupy. ”
After speaking, Wang Yizhe raised his legs and left, shouting loudly in the courtyard as his adjutant went straight to the gate.
Wang Yizhe has a black Buick sedan, and he usually takes the sedan to Beidaying.
As soon as Wang Yizhe left, Rong Zhen also came to the door, and listened to the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions outside the big and small west gates, Rong Zhen knew that he really should go. Call the adjutant and tell him to immediately organize the evacuation of Shenyang.
Then, another staff officer was called and asked to take a few people to his house by car to assist his family in evacuating.
After Rong Zhen received the news that the Kwantung Army was attacking Beidaying, he had already informed his family to prepare for evacuation. And he himself hastened to fasten his belt and hang up his pistol.
Just arranged all this, but I didn't expect Wang Yizhe, who had left, to come back angrily.
Rong Zhen asked Wang Yizhe in surprise: "Dingfang, why didn't you go to Beidaying and come back?" ”
"Fuck, the car I parked outside the door is gone, and the driver was killed."
Wang Yizhe's words startled Rong Zhen, he subconsciously stretched out his hand to the pistol on his waist, and said nervously: "Ding Fang, this must have been done by himself, and there must be an agent of himself monitoring here nearby." They robbed your car because they were afraid that you would go back to Beidaying. It's dangerous for you to go out of the city now, so why don't you evacuate to Jinzhou with me? ”
Wang Yizhe looked at the direction of the Beida Battalion, shook his head and said, "Chief of Staff, you better go first." Although I can't fight the Kwantung Army, I have already ordered the troops to withdraw to Dongshanzuizi, and I have to find the troops before leaving. Trouble the chief of staff, take me and the families of several senior officers of the 7th Brigade with them, otherwise, their families will stay in Shenyang and fight with the little devils in the future, and they will not be at ease......"
After informing Ye Changgui that he could prepare for the operation as planned, Han Guangdi hurriedly returned to the arsenal.
At this time, the artillery sound of the Beida Camp had stopped, but the gunfire there was more intensive, and Han Guangdi knew that it was the Kwantung Army that had rushed into the Beida Camp, and the Kwantung Army was afraid of hurting its own people, so it stopped the shelling.
At this time, the arsenal and the surrounding commanding heights were already under the command of Wang De and were completely controlled by the escort troops of the Fourth Route Army. On the two tall and sturdy cement watchtowers on both sides of the gate of the arsenal, the people of the guards who used to stand guard have disappeared, and now the soldiers of the Fourth Route Army are guarding them. Four Maxine heavy machine guns were erected on each of the two watchtowers, and the muzzles of the black holes were pointed to the north, ready to meet the invading Kwantung Army at any time.
There are two deputy commanders of the Military Police Command of the Northeast Army, one is Li Xiangpu who is now in Shenyang, and the other is Shao Wenkai, who was stationed in Beiping with Zhang Xueliang.
The military police of the Northeast Army has only one battalion of military police, which is divided into six companies, and is known to the outside world as six military police brigades. Yang Hongji's 1st Brigade, Zhu Enhai's 2nd Brigade, and Fu Changrui's 4th Brigade were stationed in Shenyang; Liu Jingquan's 3rd Brigade was stationed in Shanhaiguan; Zhang Jiangqing's 5th Brigade was stationed in Yongji; Wei Fuhai's 6th Brigade was stationed in Longjiang, which is now Qiqihar, the capital of Heilongjiang Province.
Each gendarmerie brigade has more than 300 people, and the soldiers are all young officers and soldiers with good military quality and skills selected by various units, and their combat effectiveness is still very strong, and the only deficiency is that their weapons are all short guns.
Yang Hongji's first group of military police, which was originally only equipped with shell guns, was also replaced by a 13-year-old 79 rifle manufactured by the Northeast Arsenal at this time, and the workers who were in charge of supervising the handling of materials were nervously loading the trucks.
The 13-year-old rifle in the hands of the military police, mainly copied from the Czech Mauser Type 98/22 rifle, was the main equipment of the Northeast Army.
However, there are many differences between the Northeast Type 13 and other domestic imitations of Mauser, and the Northeast 13-Year Model is almost a mixture of Mauser and Yue-style 38 rifles, which well reflects Zhang Zuolin's maverick surname. The biggest difference between this rifle produced by the Northeast Arsenal and Mauser is the structure of the bolt, the firing part in the 13-year-old bolt adopts the design of the internal spring, the handle head is olive-shaped, and there is no guide groove on the bolt, so it is not interchangeable with the usual Mauser bolt, and even the design of the dust cover is obviously different from the 38 type. The two decompression holes on the 13-year-old gun magazine are borrowed from the design of the 38-style gun.
This rifle was designed and manufactured by Han Linchun when he was the general office of the Northeast Arsenal. Han Linchun graduated from the Yueben Non-commissioned Officer School, and he was actively involved in the design of the Type 13 rifle, so the gun is called "Han's 79 rifle" or "made by Han Linchun" in China. Because it is compatible with ammunition and Mauser 98, it is also called Liao-made 98 rifle.
Nearly 1,000 trucks brought by Wang De, which had been parked on the road outside the factory area, were already driving into the arsenal in an orderly manner, filling the large warehouses in the factory area that had been forcibly opened with weapons and ammunition, and then quickly driving out from the east gate and waiting in line in the open space on the side of the highway.
Because according to the amount negotiated between Song Zhewu and Zhang Xueliang, there are still some weapons and ammunition that have not been shipped under the deliberate actions of Han Guangdi. It was under this pretext that Han Guangdi stayed in the Northeast Arsenal.
In order to rush to transport the weapons and equipment of the Northeast Arsenal tonight, Han Guangdi hired more than 200 porters and others in the arsenal on the pretext of loading surplus materials.
Since these people were strong laborers of the right years, the shipment was fast.
Because of the sound of gunfire outside Beidaying and Shenyang, these hired local porters in Shenyang are very afraid, they are mainly farmers outside the city, and a small number of them are part-time workers in the city, and they are very worried about the safety of their families. Originally, as soon as the gunshots rang out in the Beida camp, these people clamored to quit and go home.
Thanks to Yang Hongji's gendarmes, under the threat of the gendarmes, these people did not disperse, and Wang De offered double the wages and promised that as long as the materials were shipped, they would be paid immediately and let them go, which stabilized the mood of the workers.
In the midst of the gunfire in and out of the city, it didn't matter to the workers whether they were paid double or not, and the most impressive thing was to let them go home as soon as possible. Their biggest concern at the moment is the safety of their families, not their wages.
Of course, the glittering bayonets of the gendarmes and the soldiers of the Fourth Route Army were also a reason for their willingness to work hard, and they knew very well that at such a special moment, these soldiers could do anything.
In order to be able to finish loading the supplies and go home as soon as possible, these people worked very hard, and after putting the heavy boxes of weapons and ammunition on the car, they all trotted all the way back to the warehouse to pick up the next batch.
The intense and orderly shipment and vigilance work made Han Guangdi very satisfied.
This is not surprising, Wang De, the division commander, is now only commanding a reinforced battalion, if this matter is not done well, then Wang De is not worthy of being the division commander.
However, there was another thing that surprised Han Guangdi, because the people of the arsenal guards, who were supposed to be disarmed in black uniforms, were running back and forth around the crowd with guns with their guns and shouting, urging the workers to speed up.
These escorts do not belong to the regular army of the Northeast Army, they are subordinate to the General Office of the Northeast Ordnance Industry.
At the beginning, the arsenal was also guarded by the Northeast Army, and when Yang Yuting was the general office, he set up this escort team, all of which were called weapons, and even officers at all levels were all equipped with sabers.
This escort unit was specially responsible for the security work of the Northeast Arsenal, the Mortar Factory, and other enterprises affiliated with the General Ordnance Industry. After Zhang Xueliang shot Yang Yuting, the escort team was also greatly reduced, and now there is only one brigade left, and Li Dahai's squadron is stationed in the arsenal.
Knowing that Han Guangdi was back, Wang De hurriedly ran over to inquire about the situation.
After listening to Han Guangdi's brief introduction, Wang De was so angry that he couldn't help but scold: "Fuck, I really let the commander say, Zhang Xueliang, this fool is really not a thing, he just watched himself kill people and set fire to our Chinese soil?" Let me do whatever I want? The Northeast Army is not allowed to resist yet? Let this great eastern three provinces easily fall into the hands of himself? I think he's just a bastard! ”
Han Guangdi glanced at Yang Hongji and Li Dahai, who were not far away, with embarrassed expressions, and gently pulled Wang De over.
For the salute between the two, Han Guangdi smiled and waved his hand and said, "Captain Yang and Captain Li, don't be so polite, these are extraordinary times, everything is simple." ”
Although Han Guangdi was very interested in the change of attitude of Li Dahai and his escort team, and also wanted to know the answer as soon as possible, he still asked Yang Hongji first.
"Captain Yang, the situation is very bad now, the Kwantung Army brazenly launched a war and the young marshal insisted on not resisting, these are unfortunately our words, your Commander Qi and Commander Li will rush to the arsenal to join us and decide to join our Fourth Route Army, what do you think?"
Yang Hongji straightened his chest with a serious expression and said: "Report to Captain Han, these Commanders Qi have already explained to us, whoever beats the little devil will follow him." ”
"Good!"
Han Guangdi looked at Li Dahai, then at Wang De, and asked Li Dahai: "What do you mean, Captain Li?" ”
Wang De patted Li Dahai on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Captain, Captain Yang has already disarmed the escort team, but just now the General Office of Ordnance Industry called, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, I explained the situation to Captain Li. ”
"Captain Li didn't believe it at first, but after receiving the order of non-resistance from the Ordnance Industry Office, he scolded at that time, and he insisted on leading his brothers to join our Fourth Route Army and follow us to fight devils."
Thank you for the reward from the "70 Students" book friends!
