Chapter 328: The End

Yang Zhen believes that even if the strength of the North Korean army is still relatively complete, there is still a North Korean cluster under the command of Yi Liangpin in North Korea, which can cooperate with them in combat at any time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Not to mention that the main force has been withdrawn to the south of North Korea at the moment, there is only one division north of Pyongyang, plus an independent mixed brigade, and three garrison North Korean troops.

Even if all the forces of the North Korean army were in the north of Korea, what could it do? The three of them cooperate with each other, and they will be worried that they will not succeed in fighting the tiger and will be injured by the tiger? As long as the three of them form a character shape and form a strategic and tactical cooperation, even if the North Korean army is dispatched, what can they do with them? The North Korean army is not the king of heaven, what is there to fear?

For the Liaodong battlefield, Wang Xiaoming and Tao Jingfei were somewhat restrained in the final stage. In particular, he did not make up his mind to cross the river and enter the territory of Korea to fight. The entire battlefield was still set in the Liaodong region west of the Yalu River, and Yang Zhen gave the old lady with little feet an evaluation.

In addition to this evaluation, Yang Zhen, who clearly knew that the matter had come to this point, even if he was angry, it would have no effect, still didn't say anything. I didn't think of it beforehand, and I can only make up for it afterwards. As for what responsibility to pursue, let's wait until the battle is summed up.

Yang Zhen ordered Tao Jingfei not to stay too long in Andong, and immediately forcibly crossed the Yalu River with the whole army, entered the territory of North Korea, took over the North Korean army, and abandoned the North Korean-controlled area. And with the Yi Liangpin Division, which is fighting in North Korea at the moment, to complete the control of the north of Pyongyang. If possible, look for fighter planes to seize Pyongyang, the industrial capital of the whole of North Korea.

At the same time, Wang Xiaoming was ordered to continue to encircle and annihilate the remnants of the enemy in addition to leaving part of the troops. No less than two divisions and all tanks and cavalry were transferred to Tao Jingfei's command. After completing the final encirclement and annihilation of the remnants of the enemy in Liaodong, the troops of the three divisions were transferred to Tao Jingfei. Ordered all the armored troops under Du Kaishan's command to be transferred to Tao Jingfei's command.

On the one hand, Yang Zhen urged Chen Hanzhang to complete the final settlement of the Japanese Fifth Army, and on the other hand, he made a big noise in the Liaodong region, and constantly increased troops in Korea, which caused the Korean army and the entire Korean Peninsula to be shocked three times a day. Senior General Seishiro Itagaki of the commander of the DPRK Army personally braved air raids and rushed to Pyongyang to inspect defense affairs.

However, in view of the unfavorable terrain and the proximity to northeast China. The most important thing is that after the western front was reduced to the Kimhwa line, the entire Pyongyang area became a very unfavorable salient. In view of this situation. In the end, the North Korean army abandoned the Pyongyang line, and the whole army shrank to the Haeju and Pyongchon lines. Relying on the hilly terrain here, the tank troops of the Anti-United Nations were prevented from moving south.

However, with the final settlement of the remnants of the Kwantung Army in the South Manchurian Battlefield, the anti-Japanese alliance, which had been fighting hard for more than a month and was also exhausted, immediately stopped all its movements in Korea. However, by this time, the entire area north of the Datong River had been completely controlled by the Anti-Japanese Federation.

The battle ended on December 3 with the last gunshot on the Xinmin battlefield. And on November 27, the remnants of the Japanese 44th Army, which was surrounded in the mountains east of Kaiyuan, were finally completely resolved, and the commander of the 44th Army, Lieutenant General Hongo Yoshio, committed suicide. On 28 November, the remnants of the enemy in the entire eastern Liaodong region were finally wiped out, and the South Manchurian operation came to a complete end.

The battle began in the early morning of 22 October and lasted nearly a month and a half of bitter fighting until 3 December, with a variety of tactics used at the same time. With the cooperation of a column from Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong, and Henan that was transferred to the northeast for training, as well as a section of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, the Kwantung Army was completely liberated from Nanmanchu, the last controlled area in the northeast.

In this battle, the four formed armies of the Kwantung Army were completely annihilated, and one army was severely damaged. The total annihilation of eleven divisions of the Japanese army, eight independent mixed brigades, and three tank brigades. Basically, two divisions and two independent mixed brigades were annihilated, and two divisions and three independent mixed brigades were severely damaged.

The Kwantung Army lost all of its artillery, engineer, and railway wings, as well as 90 percent of its garrisons, except for the communications wings directly under it. The weapons, ammunition and materials seized by the Anti-Japanese Federation and the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan, Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei troops who participated in the war can almost be said to be piled up.

Only the best performance of the Japanese army's Type 96 150-millimeter howitzers captured more than 30 units. And this figure accounted for half of the Type 96 150-mm howitzers equipped with by the Kwantung Army. There are 17 150-mm cannons of the 89-type and more than 30 105-mm cannons of the 92-type and Taisho 14-year types.

As for mountain howitzers, anti-tank guns, infantry guns, rapid-fire guns, and mortars, the total number has reached more than 700. The ammunition captured in Shenyang alone is enough for these artillery pieces to last for three years. In other words, nearly half of the artillery equipped by the Kwantung Army was captured. This ratio is the first time for the Japanese army.

And most importantly, in this final decisive battle between the Anti-Union and the Kwantung Army. For the first time, large-scale airborne operations were carried out, as well as landing operations, and the anti-Japanese coalition almost completely seized the entire industrial area of South Manchuria. Except for Andong's textile industry, which was blown up when the Kwantung Army was about to retreat, the rest of the industrial areas of the major cities in South Manchuria were basically preserved intact.

In this battle, the industrial zone of South Manchuria was completely seized, and the most critical wings of take-off were preserved for the future development of China. The locomotive manufacturing and shipbuilding industry in Dalian, the bearing industry in Fuzhou, and the complete seizure of the aluminum smelting base in Fushun also filled the gap in the entire Beiman industry. In particular, the complete seizure of the bearing factory in Fuzhou can be said to have solved the most difficult problem in the production of the anti-coalition military industry.

The petroleum smelting industry in Jinzhou, Huludao, and Fushun has also greatly strengthened the development of the petroleum industry in the northeastern base areas. The automobile manufacturing industry relocated from Xinjing to Shenyang by Fengtian Aircraft Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has also greatly enhanced the hematopoietic function of the Northeast Base Area.

In addition, the annual output of more than 10,000 vehicles of Japan's Tonghe Automobile Co., Ltd. in Shenyang, as well as the expanding automobile factory in Beiman. It is estimated that by the completion of the expansion of the second phase of the project in the first half of four or five years, the entire northeast will be able to produce 110,000 two-and-a-half-ton trucks, 5,000 five-ton trucks, and 10,000 light trucks per year.

After careful study by the Northeast Bureau, the third phase of the expansion equipment originally scheduled for the Beiman Automobile Factory was finally applied to the expansion and renovation of the Japanese legacy automobile factory in Shenyang. But the entire car manufacturing plant was relocated from Shenyang to Siping, and it was converted to produce all American trucks.

According to the original plan of the Northeast Bureau, this automobile factory was ready to be relocated to Shimen or Baoding, but after several considerations by the central government, whether it is in terms of raw materials, technical support, or safety, it is more appropriate for this automobile factory to stay in the northeast.

Compared with the fact that these factories have basically been preserved intact, what is more important is the capture of Lushun, Dalian, and Huludao, which gave the Anti-Japanese Federation its own access to foreign communications. The assistance of the Americans against the United States no longer needs to be borrowed from the Soviet Union when the main force of the Japanese Navy has already been sent to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean by the Americans.

The last deposit deposited in the United States was used to purchase a batch of aircraft manufacturing equipment, as well as automobile manufacturing equipment, tractor manufacturing equipment, petroleum industry smelting equipment, and other machinery and equipment, which were directly transported from Huludao to the designated place by train after going ashore on Huludao. This batch of equipment is also the most complete batch of machinery and equipment imported from the United States by the Anti-Japanese Federation to the Northeast.

Because it did not pass through the territory of the Soviet Union, the equipment was not oiled when it arrived in the Northeast, and not even a single screw was missing. Along with this batch of equipment arrived in the Northeast, there were AEC medium artillery tractor trucks purchased by the Anti-Union for $150,000, all manufacturing equipment and drawings.

The complete opening of the external passage has led to the basic and complete seizure of the South Manchurian Industrial Zone. It has played a role in the industrial development of the entire Northeast. Guaranteed foreign trade, the required sea lines of communication. And there is no need to pay high transit fees to the Soviet side during transportation, as well as being rubbed with oil by the Soviets during transportation.

After learning that the Anti-Japanese Federation basically captured South Manchuria, he was worried about Yang Zhen during the entire campaign, couldn't sleep for a night of insomnia, and rarely drank alcohol, made an exception with the boss and vice chairman, and was excited all night without rest. In the telegram to Yang Zhen, the chairman wrote six words in a row to express his condolences. This is the first time that the chairman has sent a telegram to the major strategic regions.

However, the people who had the most headache after the battle should have been the happiest Northeast Bureau and the Northeast People's Government. The complete liberation of the entire South Manchurian in such a short period of time caught the Northeast Bureau, which had already made certain preparations, still a little unprepared. There was a sudden shortage of local cadres and the number of cadres in charge of receiving industries.

After the end of the campaign, the first thing the Northeast Bureau did was to reach out to cadres, especially the secretaries of the county party committees and factory party committees at the grassroots level. After receiving the telegram from the Northeast Bureau, the central authorities transferred a group of cadres who had graduated from Kang Da to the Northeast Bureau from Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, Shanxi-Hebei, Shandong-Henan, and Jinsui on the spot.

After the end of the campaign, the Northeast People's Government dispatched a large number of cadres and technicians to carry out all-out emergency repairs to the factories and infrastructure facilities damaged by the war throughout South Manchuria. And from the Northeast Petroleum Industry Department to transfer a group of technical cadres, from the Daqing Oilfield to transfer a large number of workers, as well as the equipment that has been prepared to quickly go south.

In addition to the technical transformation of the Japanese refineries in Jinzhou and Huludao, as well as the expansion of production, it was to prepare for the start of the Liaohe oil battle. There are large oil fields in the Liaohe Delta, which Yang Zhen patted his chest and guaranteed with his head. Despite Yang Zhen's assurances, the chairman of the Northeast People's Government was skeptical.

However, after Yang Zhen's repeated requests, he even took out the captured map of the Kwantung Army, which had marked the Kwantung Army's survey of the Liaohe River Delta, and determined that there were likely to be oil fields in the Liaohe Delta. The most important thing is to take into account the comprehensive utilization, the oil smelters built by the Kwantung Army in Jinzhou, Huludao and other places, and to meet the needs of the Kannai direction for oil and export exchange.

After several considerations, the chairman of the Northeast People's Government decided to allocate 10 million yuan in the already tight financial situation to launch a large-scale oil war in the Liaohe Delta. In order to support this oil battle, the central government also ordered the two Jinchaji brigades participating in the Jinzhou direction to be reorganized into petroleum engineering brigades on the spot to meet the needs of the workers.

The most important thing is that Yang Zhen has said more than once that the construction of the Northeast and even the liberated areas of North China requires a large amount of cash exchange. Now that the war has come to an end, American aid could be cut off at any moment. If you want to buy machinery and equipment and technology that are the first to come abroad, you need a lot of foreign exchange.

Those capitalist countries that have mastered the most advanced technology do not pay attention to any kind of brotherhood. They have always been one yard to one yard, and they pay attention to money and goods, and they will not sell you anything without cash exchange. The next step of construction does not have a large amount of foreign exchange, which is difficult to meet the needs. In the case that the things that can be exported for exchange are still very limited, export resources have become one of the few options.
