Chapter 465: Liberation, Brigade (I)
In history, this demon handed over the jishu information he mastered to the Americans, not only escaped the post-war trial, but also received very nourishment under the protection of the Americans in the second half of his life, but he would not have such good luck in this time and space, and eating guns was his only ending. Historically, after the Americans obtained a large number of advanced jishu materials mastered by Japan for research on living people, the science and technology of biochemistry and medicine have made great progress, but all this time and space has been obtained by the Chinese, and the pharmaceutical industry has become one of the first several advantageous industries ahead of Shijie in New China. This proves once again that there is no good or evil in science itself, and the key is to see who holds it
Before and after the occupation of the Institute of Biochemistry, Hu Lian's handling was very appropriate and decent, and his attention to Japanese scientific and technological personnel was praised by Hu Weidong and even the Red Party Central Committee. It was precisely from this point in that more and more attention was paid to the cultural quality of officers, and the upsurge of self-study from top to bottom of the PLA also rose unprecedentedly high with the great man's remark that "an army without culture is a stupid army." This complements the upgrading of the PLA's weapons and equipment, and further enhances the combat effectiveness of the whole army. At the same time, the increasing use of knowledge-based generals is also conducive to the regularization and modernization of the armed forces, which has now quietly begun.
When the crime of using living Chinese and North Koreans (the activity of the Anti-Japanese Union made it increasingly difficult for the devils to obtain enough "experimental samples", so they later began to fight the idea of the North Koreans) to conduct biological and chemical weapons research, it immediately caused an international uproar, and even the United States, which is interested in supporting Japan, had to temporarily postpone the issuance of loans to Japan and suspend some cooperation between the two countries to show its posture. The attitudes of the Soviets and Germans have also changed, at least on the surface, and even in Japan, there are some people who originally "do not know the truth" who were secretly instigated by the Japanese Communist Party to march and demonstrate, although they were finally brutally suppressed by the Japanese military department, but the contradictions between the arrogant and brutal Japanese Army and the business and intellectual circles have become more and more intensified, and the Japanese Navy has benefited from it, and Shili, who has gradually surpassed the army, has become even more inflated
Naturally, Hu Weidong would not let go of favorable changes in the international situation, and the fact that the Marine Division had captured Dalian beautifully increased his confidence, so he immediately ordered the Marine Division to take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, and the reinforcements would also cross the Bohai Strait as quickly as possible. Strive to completely take over the entire brigade area in a short period of time. After receiving an order from the command of the field army. Tens of thousands of commanders and fighters of the Marine Division, regardless of fatigue and pain, seized the opportunity of the night when the Japanese naval guns and heavy artillery of the fortress could not fully play their full role, and attacked again on a large scale, and successively conquered a number of Japanese strongholds in one night, killing and wounding more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers. But at the time of attacking the stronghold of the Japanese army Zuihou, Lushunkou. The imposing Marine Division suffered a great loss in front of the first fortress in Asia. Combined with the previous casualties, the number of troops in the division has been reduced by more than half, of which the number of combat soldiers has been reduced by more than two-thirds. No matter how tenacious the officers and men were, the Marine Division was really unable to continue the offensive. If it weren't for the fact that the large forces of the Central Plains Field Army had landed ashore one after another, the 100,000 Japanese troops at Lushunkou (after the departure of the main fleet, the strength of the Japanese army in Lushun would have been reduced by tens of thousands. Not daring to leave the fortress in pursuit, the losses of the Marine Division are probably much greater
"Damn, you can't even blast the 152 plus howitzer at close range, how can you hit this?" Hu Lian hatefully pounded on a broken wall, but at this time there was good news from the telegrapher, the first batch of 12 203mm heavy howitzers that the artillery division directly under the field army (the second artillery division of the People's Liberation Army) had just been equipped with and had not even had time to conduct sufficient tests, and the officers and men of the artillery division had arrived safely at Dalian Port. Hu Liandeng's face was overjoyed, but he had heard of the power of this large-caliber long-range heavy artillery from Hu Weidong, and even the 203mm B4 heavy howitzer that the Soviets were proud of was far inferior to it, and with the new armor-piercing blaster designed by Hu Weidong himself, if you look at it at close range, even a few meters thick reinforced concrete can easily penetrate it!
But when Hu Lian thought of this, his face sank again, if such a large-caliber heavy artillery wants to get close to the artillery bombardment, it can only have a chance to attract the firepower of the Japanese army with a fierce offensive first, but does the current Marine Division still have so many combatable soldiers to undertake this task? Seeing that the most critical battle before victory was coming, but his troops could not bear the heavy responsibility, Hu Lian's heart was not to mention depressed. However, it didn't take long for Hu Lian's depression to turn into surprise, because Hu Weidong actually planned to let Rizong take over the responsibility of the main attack
Considering that their participation in the war will have a huge impact on the morale of the Japanese army, the central government once wanted to transfer them to the northeast to participate in the war, but Taizu was worried that Lin Xu and the two would not be able to use this special force transformed from the invaders, and the People's Liberation Army in the northeast battlefield did not occupy an absolute advantage at that time. As a result, the Japanese army remained in the Central Plains Field Army and became an important part of its 800,000-strong army (the mobilization work of the PLA's major military regions has never stopped).
The reason why Hu Weidong dared to reuse this Japanese army in the Battle of Arthur Pass, the most difficult battle of the Brigade Campaign, was that, on the one hand, the outstanding performance of the Japanese Column during the Battle of Bengbu won his trust, and on the other hand, because the Port of Arthur was really difficult to fight, if the Japanese Commander was allowed to fight, it would naturally be best if the psychological warfare worked, even if it could only be fought hard, the Japanese officers and soldiers would not be as distressed as our own troops had suffered heavy losses
As a result, the Japanese war once again achieved miraculous results, and the attitude of the Japanese towards these "non-nationals" has always been to go to two extremes, some of them cannot resolutely kill because they are compatriots, and more people seem to be "enemies meet and look at each other." In a hurry to kill these Japanese "traitors", the Japanese troops in the Lushun fortress either lost their firepower, or rushed out of the fortress and the Japanese commanders and fighters were desperate because they were angry, no matter which situation will undoubtedly greatly reduce the difficulty of the Central Plains Field Army to conquer the Lushun Pass, and Hu Weidong did not use them purely as cannon fodder, and specially sent the 203mm heavy howitzers of the artillery division to help them solve the Japanese army's strong fortress (to be continued......
