The fact that such a large number of bandits were exterminated within four months shows the bad overall situation in South Manchuria when it was first liberated. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Moreover, although the work of suppressing bandits has achieved a great victory, it is still far from completely eliminating the armed forces of the South Manchurian and Japanese puppets that have broken up and turned into bandits, and completely sweeping away the hidden personnel of the South Manchurian and Japanese puppets.

In the mountainous areas of eastern and western Liaoning, there are still those bandits who defected to the enemy after the September 18 Incident and after the complete annihilation of the Kwantung Army, they dragged their guns up the mountains again to become bandits. These bandits are not the remnants of the Japanese puppet army who went up to the mountains to become bandits, these people who have been bandits for many years before joining the enemy have rich experience in mountain life, and they are even more difficult to deal with than those bandits who are armed by the Japanese puppet army.

These people are cunning and know that it is easy to expose targets with the remnants of the Japanese army who lack the experience of living in the jungles of the cold regions of the northeast. At the same time, it was difficult to get rid of the control of the Japanese, and it was too late for these people to be comfortable. So when he went up the mountain, he only took his own friends with him, and he did not get involved with the Japanese army.

Moreover, these people themselves have been kings of the mountains for a long time, and the sense of smell cultivated by them for many years as bandits is extremely sensitive, and they will quickly transfer at the slightest disturbance. The pursuer is a little slower, and it is easy for these people to run away. Although the equipment of this kind of bandit is not as good as that of the Kwantung Army, as well as the Japanese puppet police and military police. But these people are more difficult to deal with than those people.

Among them, some of them followed the Kwantung Army to retreat south, for fear of being settled after the autumn. The ability of these people to move in the deep mountains and old forests during the Anti-United Nations period was even higher than those old bandits. Moreover, the anti-sweeping operations they have experienced many times have also made these people relatively more experienced in dealing with large-scale attacks.

And I am afraid that after being caught, these former traitors who were settled by the Autumn Queen will be even more crazy when they resist, and even above the Japanese soldiers who have turned into bandits. The destruction and threat to the South Manchurian base areas are also even more harmful. After the extermination of the large-scale political bandits consciously left behind by the Kwantung Army, these habitual bandits and former traitors became the most difficult guys to deal with.

I am afraid that the purge of these people will continue for some time. Coupled with those lurking Japanese puppet spies, the work of the Social Department and the Ministry of Public Security of the Northeast Bureau still has a long way to go. Yang Zhen knew that in later generations, with the capabilities of the Central Committee and the Ministry of Public Security at that time, there were still remnants of Japanese spies in the Northeast that had not been purged.

After the development of the Daqing Oilfield in later generations, the specific location has not been announced for the sake of secrecy. However, the Japanese only relied on Japanese spies lurking in China and sent a pictorial to Japan without any entrainment except for the iron man cover, and judged the specific location, scale, and even approximate production capacity of this oil field.

Although those who have slipped through the net are no longer afraid to do any activity, or are no longer able to move. But it is also enough to show that the Japanese penetrated deeply into the Northeast and considered it for a long time. Even in some aspects of the civil war, there were hidden Japanese spies behind the spy activities in the northeastern base areas.

The struggle on the secret front has always been a matter of life and death. Especially in the face of an opponent like the Japanese, who is both painstaking and meticulous, it is impossible for Yang Zhen to be imprudent. The spy activities of the Japanese do not have the advanced equipment of European and American countries. But in terms of meticulousness and stealth ability, it is far from being comparable to the agents of European and American countries.

To say that the agent is in the ability to stealth, as well as the ability to covert surveillance. The only ones that can be compared with the Japanese are the KGB to which the polar bears belong to the north, and the secret service of the GDR later. As for the later CIA, it was slightly worse in some respects.

At least in terms of the ability of their agents to adapt to the lurking, the Japanese are absolutely unique in this regard. Who would have thought that a person who walked the streets and alleys to pick up dung would be a pure Japanese spy who was very well hidden. Who would have thought that an inconspicuous scrap collector would be a Japanese agent who graduated from Nakano School?

On some secret fronts, the Japanese ended up suffering big losses because of their internal reasons. There is no such thing as a strong intelligence command like that of Germany and Britain. In addition to the army and navy doing their own thing, the army's own internal system is also the various strategic clusters doing their own thing.

But even so, the Japanese were quite successful on the secret front in World War II. Both the war against China, the Southeast Asian theater, and the early stage of the war against the United States were quite successful. In particular, the penetration of China provides the most favorable support for its military operations.

In order to eliminate the remaining Japanese puppet forces, he had to use the main forces that had not yet completed the reorganization and replenishment that had not been left in the northeast, which had already affected Yang Zhen's overall layout in other aspects. At this time, where will Yang Zhen not fully support the work of the Ministry of Social Affairs?

In particular, he is currently serving as the first secretary of the Northeast Bureau, overseeing the overall work of the Northeast. If you don't support the work of the Ministry of Social Affairs, isn't it dismantling your own platform? Weapons, vehicles, funds, and necessary equipment, Yang Zhen has always spared no effort, and only more than ten radio direction finders have been provided.

The Ministry of Armament was also asked to use existing technology and Junkers 52 transport aircraft to improve a radio direction finding aircraft for the Ministry of Social Affairs. Although the DF range is limited, at least in the monitoring of secret radio stations, it can play a role that many ground equipment cannot play.

Although the elites who have been painstakingly cultivated by others have been poached, the support that should be given must still be fully supported. But Yang Zhen's support is not unprincipled, and there are some things that should be supported. But it can't involve his own bottom line, this is Yang Zhen's insistence.

However, although Yang Zhen did not put any pressure on the Minister of Social Affairs, Yang Zhen was not so polite to the veteran commander and political commissar of the public security forces who were responsible for commanding and suppressing the bandits. Yang Zhen gave these two death orders, and used all necessary means to wipe out the remaining bandits in South Manchuria before August 45.

Before the entire South Manchurian purge is completed, the remnants of the bandits must not be allowed to wander to other areas. Especially in North Manchuria, Rehe and North China. And make every effort to ensure the resumption of production in the South Manchurian industrial zone, as well as the railway line transportation from the harassment of bandits. At present, the Guannai is preparing to fight in the south, and a large amount of military supplies are transferred to the Guannai through the Bac Ninh Railway.

If there is any interruption in this lifeline, he will only ask these two questions. Except on the battlefield, Yang Zhen easily did not give his subordinates such a death order to be completed within a time limit. However, in order to stabilize the situation in South Manchuria as soon as possible and ensure the stability of the industrial base in South Manchuria, Yang Zhen could not help but give such an order.

Compared with the temporarily calm battlefield in Kannai, and Nanman, who is busy suppressing bandits. While the entire Northeast and its surroundings are generally calm, North Korea is currently fighting tepidly. There was no relative calm like the rest of the front, but there was no earth-shattering fighting.

Yang Zhen, who had his hands free at this moment, used North Korea as a training ground. All the troops transferred to the northeast were sent to the DPRK to participate in actual combat after the completion of the training. Units of various formations took turns to go into battle, and in coordination with the armored and aviation units of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, they carried out large-scale encroachment tactics against the Korean army, squeezing the Japanese and Korean troops to the south little by little.

There were no major battles on the entire Korean battlefield, but there were battles at the regimental level almost every day, and the two sides repeatedly fought on the confrontation line. There are contacts and contacts, you attack and defend, and the fight is quite lively. But Yang Zhen was very calm, as if he was consciously controlling the rhythm of the battle. Although the fighting on the Korean Peninsula was lively, the scale of the battle never exceeded the level of the additional division.

The biggest battle was the battle for the central part of the Korean Peninsula, which strategically focused on the front line of Mewon and Kimhwa. The battle was to improve the defensive posture north of Gimhwa and Cheorwon, and was reported by Du Kaisan, who was in charge of overall command in northern Korea, and approved by Yang Zhen after studying with Kwak Byung-hoon.

Cheorwon is located in the north-central part of Korea, and although it is only a small town, it is strategically important. It forms a triangle with Pyongkang and Kimhwa, and from this triangle to the north is a narrow plain in central Korea, and to the south is a continuous hilly area.

At present, the situation of the two sides in central Korea is that the Japanese army controls the mountains south of the Cheorwon and Geimhwa lines, while the anti-Japanese alliance controls the plains north of Cheorwon. That is to say, the Japanese army controls the two bottom corners of this triangle, while the anti-union controls the top corner and the two sides.

However, in terms of terrain, the Japanese army is condescending, and can overlook the depth of more than 10 kilometers of the Anti-United Nations. It will have a rather adverse impact on the overall defense of the entire Cheorwon-Jinhua line. The Japanese condescendingly and continuously used long-range artillery fire to blockade the entire plain north of Cheorwon, posing a great threat to the forward troops. Whether it is the forward delivery of materials or the rotation of front-line troops, it has a great impact.

The Japanese army is also constantly dispatching small units from the mountainous areas south of Cheorwon and Jinhwa to harass the areas south of the first line of Cheorwon and Jinhwa by taking advantage of the mountainous terrain to harass the areas south of the first line of Cheorwon and Jinhwa. Although Ma Chunsheng organized a series of pull-out operations, successively seized several commanding heights of Baima Mountain, Wusheng Mountain, and Jixiong Mountain, and pushed part of the front to the south, he failed to change the overall strategic unfavorable situation.

And Cheorwon, located on the Pyongyang-Seoul railway line, is not only somewhat unfavorable to the strategic defense posture of the United Nations in central Korea. It is also a transportation hub in central Korea, where three railways and several highways intersect, and it is also a transportation hub in central Korea.

From Cheorwon, you can go north along the railway line to Pyongyang and Wonsan, and to the south to Seoul. For the current North Korean army, the entire line from Cheorwon to Kim Hwa has become its gateway to the North Korean-controlled area. Once the Japanese army completes the defense system here, it will have a rather negative impact on the next offensive of the Coalition.

If the line from Cheorwon to Kim Hwa can be taken, the entire defense system of the Anti-Japanese Union in central Korea will be greatly improved, and the previous passive situation will be changed. Taking Cheorwon was tantamount to priing the entire defense of the Japanese army in this triangle, the last line at the bottom, and posing a direct threat to Seoul.

After obtaining Yang Zhen's approval, Du Kaishan decided to reorganize the two brigades from the original Jin-Cha-Ji to one regiment of the Fourth Independent Division of the Northeast Military Region, six companies of the Fifth Independent Division, and two regiments of the 17th Division of the Anti-Japanese Union. and one rocket artillery battalion, two 150 howitzer battalions, and four 122 howitzer companies. Under the unified command of Ma Chunsheng, commander of the 17th Division, they launched an attack on the front line of Tieyuan and Jinhua.

Taking into account the terrain of the Tieyuan frontline, Yang Zhen added a tank battalion as a direct-aim support firepower to the original support firepower of Du Kaishan, and increased the number of mortars on the front line, especially 120 mm mortars. And the 160-mm mortar battalion directly under the headquarters was also urgently reinforced to the 17th Division.

On the opposite side of the Cheorwon battlefield, Yeoncheon and Mundeung-ri were reversed, with the main force of the 4th Independent Division, plus a regiment of the 5th Independent Division, an independent tank battalion, and a part of the Korean Independence Army, respectively, launched a feint attack to cooperate with the 17th Division in the Kimhwa to Cheorwon, to be precise, the focus was on the attack on the Cheorwon line.
