Chapter 379: Never Forget

It wasn't until he received that Li Mingfeng's fleet had sailed out of the Baltic Sea that Yang Zhen's heart was completely let go. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info then turned the main attention back to the Japanese mainland. Because there were still two of the biggest chips in his hand, and if he couldn't get these things, the Soviets really wouldn't spare themselves.

At present, the Northeast, which is exhausted from fighting and is in the recovery period, is really incapable of dealing with a large-scale war. The most important thing is that the strength of the Soviets at the moment is not comparable to that of the Japanese. If there really was a conflict with the Soviets at this time, it would be an absolute disaster.

But considering the immediate reaction of the Soviets, Yang Zhen also made certain deployments in the northeast. On 10 August, he secretly issued a general mobilization order to all military regions, especially those in North Manchuria. At the same time, after achieving the objectives of the campaign in the Korean theater, he immediately transferred the 4th Panzer Division back to Jiamusi.

More than 100 German-made 88-mm anti-tank guns, a batch of 88-mm anti-aircraft guns, and two 76-mm cannon regiments directly under the Northeast were also distributed to various military regions in North Manchuria and deployed in the direction of Manchuria and Tongliao.

More than 170 Panther tanks collected from Europe, and three heavy tank regiments, although they were still being trained, were also transferred to Ximan as a reserve as the second line of defense. From Manchuria to the Great Khing'an Mountains, anti-tank positions of great depth were built on the front of Tongliao.

Sixty percent of the first batch of German-made fighter units that had already completed the conversion were transferred to various airfields in North Manchuria. He also ordered part of the bomber units that had bombed Japan to prepare for a sortie to the north. In order to cope with the follow-up reaction of the Soviet Union, Yang Zhen can be described as hard work.

When Yang Zhen collected weapons from Germany, the PAK 43 German 88 anti-tank gun, which was not on the list of the Anti-United Nations, appeared on the latest exchange list. He was preparing in advance for this operation. These artillery pieces arrived in the northeast and were immediately sent to the troops, also for this moment.

After the end of the South Manchurian Campaign in 44, Yang Zhen formed six independent anti-tank gun battalions based on the captured Japanese-made 50-mm anti-tank guns, plus the captured Japanese 75-mm anti-aircraft guns. As early as the beginning of four or five years, he was secretly transferred to the North Manchurian region and deployed in the East Manchurian region.

What are you kidding, he went to pluck the hair on the tiger's buttocks, and he was not fully prepared, once the Soviets really pulled down their faces, the consequences would not be simply on the table, and they could be solved by just a lawsuit. Nothing less should be done. Anyway, if the fight cannot be fought, this general mobilization can also be regarded as a wartime exercise.

At this moment, the Japanese, who had suffered two atomic bombs, were already dead tigers. The unconditional surrender was within a day or two, and Yang Zhen didn't have to spend too much energy for the Japanese. So that he could free up troops throughout the northeast and prepare for the subsequent Soviet response.

It was on the territory of the Soviet Union that the anti-coalition naval personnel finally began to carry out the second day of the operation, which had been prepared for half a year. That is, on August 15, 1945, the Japanese Government officially announced its acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration, cessation of all hostilities in all theaters, and unconditional surrender.

Relative to the entire Chinese battlefield from south to north, major cities continued to organize parades and celebrations after receiving the news of Japan's surrender. In almost all cities in the rear, firecrackers are out of stock. In the Northeast and North China base areas, there was a frenzy of celebration with the sound of firecrackers everywhere.

At this moment, the front finger of the Anti-Japanese Union in Busan, North Korea, seems to be unusually calm. On the contrary, outside the courtyard where the former finger is located, the anti-coalition garrisons around Busan are constantly firing guns into the sky, not worrying about the consumption of ammunition at all, and celebrating Japan's unconditional surrender. The cadres commanding the troops not only did not stop it, but even their own uncontrollable inner ecstasy, drew their pistols and kept shooting into the sky.

After receiving the news of Japan's official surrender, Yang Zhen, who had rushed to North Korea to sit in person. I walked to the window and looked at the jubilant crowd inside the headquarters, and listened to the gunfire of the troops outside shooting into the sky in celebration. Stopped wanting to give an order to stop this undisciplined behavior Du Kaishan.

After being silent for a long time, he turned his head, looked at Guo Bingxun's right-hand man in front of him, and Du Kaishan, Sui Changqing and other well-known subordinates and said: "It's all over, we finally live to see the victory." Since the 38th year, we have been fighting hard in the Northeast for seven years. ”

"In the past seven years, we have gone through countless storms together, experienced countless setbacks and difficulties, and finally ushered in our victory today. No matter what you have to go through in the future, no matter where you will be in the future. I hope you will never forget the roads we have traveled, let alone those comrades who died and fell on the battlefield. ”

"Don't forget that since the 918 Incident to the present, in order to strive for this day to come as soon as possible, countless people with lofty ideals in the Northeast who have fallen on the battlefield of resistance against Japan. Forget those old anti-Japanese federations who fought in the mountains and mountains, the cold in the chest, and the cold in the wind. Don't forget the First Route Army and the Third Route Army, those commanders and fighters who sacrificed themselves and failed to usher in today's army. ”

"Don't stop the troops from celebrating properly, they have the right and the right to celebrate today's victory. Without their bloody battles on the front line, even if each of us commanders had eight heads, we would not have been able to win today's victory. ”

Maybe it's because I've been under tremendous pressure all these years, maybe I've remembered the countless days and nights over the years, or maybe I've thought of my comrades and relatives who have sacrificed. After saying this, Yang Zhen stood by the window and pulled out his pistol, and shot all the bullets in the magazine in one go. After emptying one magazine, he didn't stop, and replaced another magazine and used it all out.

He stopped after all the bullets in the two spare magazines he was carrying. But instead of inserting the pistol back into its holster, he threw it directly on the table by the window. At the same time, he took out another pistol, and after also emptied the bullets in the gun, he put it in his trouser pocket.

Yang Zhen put the pistol back in his trouser pocket, Guo Bingxun still knew it. That was the pistol that Zhang Ting stayed after his sacrifice, and Yang Zhen always wore it with him, often when there was no one around, or when he was occasionally free, he never pretended to be a guard, and he wiped and maintained the pistol with his own hands.

Looking at Yang Zhen's actions, Guo Bingxun did not stop it. Because he knew that over the years, the No. 1 in front of him had accumulated too much depression in his heart, and he had also suffered too much pressure. The development and growth of the troops, the planning and initiation of every campaign, and the end of the campaign, all poured too much effort into him.

In order to get the foreign aid urgently needed for the development of the Anti-Japanese Federation, they constantly intrigued with the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union. Every negotiation from conception to planning to negotiation is unimaginable. And after every negotiation, Guo Bingxun will see the tiredness on Yang Zhen's face that can't be concealed.

The pressure on the battlefield and the pressure outside the battlefield all weighed on his shoulders alone. It can be said that without itself, some problems will arise in the construction and rationalization of the command system of the Anti-United Nations. Without oneself or everyone else, it will have no decisive effect.

But without him, in such a harsh natural environment in the Northeast, facing the largest and most well-equipped heavy army cluster of the Japanese army in the Kwantung Army. Not to mention the development of the Anti-Japanese Federation to the point where it is today, it is probably very difficult to survive. And I, the prisoners of war of those years, may have long ago become victims of the Japanese army's bacteriological warfare.

Over the years, he has to think hard about every step he takes, and he has to carefully plan his life every step of the way, which makes him bear too much pressure that he should and shouldn't have. And all the sorrow and joy can only be suppressed in the heart. Looking at the starry white hair exposed under the brim of Yang Zhen's hat, Guo Bingxun, who knew how much his partner had endured over the years, let out a long sigh in his heart.

When Yang Zhen finished venting, he also remembered the days and nights after coming to the Northeast, Guo Bingxun also sighed with some unease: "Yes, people of our generation, including our descendants, should not forget the suffering that our country and nation have suffered.

"And those of us who have witnessed it in the past should not forget everything inside that bacteriological warfare base. We should not forget the experience of wearing single clothes and fighting hard with hunger in the severe cold of dozens of degrees below zero. We must not forget the hardships you have taken us every step of the way over the years. ”

Guo Bingxun's words, Yang Zhen seemed very silent. Turning his head to look out the window, he listened to the sound of gunfire outside. After a long time, he said: "Time will slowly cover up all the wounds of the past, and with the change of time, our generation will eventually disappear in the long river of history." ”

"But can our descendants really remember the sacrifices and sufferings of our generation? Can future generations really remember the bloody battles of our generation for this land we love so much? The alarm bell rings for a long time, and how many people can really remember? ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen smiled faintly, as if he was answering his own question, and as if he was saying it to Guo Bingxun and the others behind him: "Baiyun Canggou, we people only did what we should do." What happens after that will not be something we can control. The end of one era is destined to be the beginning of another. ”

Turning his head and looking at his subordinates, Yang Zhen paused for a moment and said, "No matter what position you go to in the future, remember that you are all cadres who came out of the Anti-Japanese Federation." The spirit and philosophy that we have adhered to over the years should not be forgotten at any time. ”

"The end of an era, but as long as we are still there, it does not mean the end of this era. In those old times, those of us did what we could, worthy of our country, our nation, and our uniforms. At any time, we can face our children and grandchildren and future generations without shame. ”

"But in the new era that is about to begin, I want to remember the mission and responsibility that you have shouldered, the path we have traveled, and the oath we have taken. Under no circumstances should you get involved in politics. Remember, you are all military men, not politicians, let alone politicians. ”

"Your duty is to defend your country so that our children and grandchildren will not endure the hardships that our generation has experienced. In the not-too-distant future, we will build a steel line of defense for our country that has suffered so much that any invader who peeks into our soil will be terrified. ”

"Our generation, the fruits of today's harvest in exchange for bloody territory, will never allow anyone to be contaminated. Wherever you go, obey orders and listen to commands. Remember my words today, don't get involved in politics, and keep your military nature. ”
