The 175th chapter beacon fire group policy mountain (7)
In fact, Yang Zhen was not the only one who insisted on continuing to fight at night. The three regiment leaders also meant that the fighting could not stop due to the change of weather. [.Com text] Especially among the three, Liu Changshun, who had made the least progress at this time
The most resolute opposition...
Although Yang Zhen did not show any dissatisfaction with the lack of progress, the change of attack direction by the other two regiments put him under great pressure. Among the three regiments, whether they were divided according to combat areas or attack targets,
In terms of primary and secondary, he was the main attacking force. However, the other two regiments changed their attack direction, which actually pushed their main attack to the secondary direction.
Especially for him, the most unacceptable thing was that Du Kaishan reached across the border and knocked out the Japanese 44th Regiment Headquarters that was originally divided into his own combat area, which made him even more irritated. In his opinion,
, Du Kaishan’s move is tantamount to grabbing food from his own bowl.
Liu Changshun, who thought he had been robbed of the biggest piece of fat in the bowl, was stimulated and wanted to avenge his shame in the night battle. Liu Changshun insisted on fighting, and Wang Guangyu and Du Kaishan were naturally not far behind. The three of them kept fighting.
Secretly shouting Jin Na.
In order to ensure that the night battle could proceed smoothly, Yang Zhen took out more than a hundred rounds of flares stored in the secret warehouse. He also personally called the three regiment leaders and explained one by one what they needed to pay attention to during the night battle.
After all, there are heavy casualties, which is what Yang Zhen does not want to see since it is difficult to replenish troops and the capital is not strong.
Although the three regiment leaders insisted on continuing the fight at night. However, in the previous battle, the three people who had understood the true combat effectiveness of the 44th Regiment knew that they must not fight to the death, otherwise they would only suffer themselves.
Unbearable casualties. In a night battle, the three regiment leaders each had their own fighting styles. Among the three, Wang Guangyu was the most experienced, while Du Kaishan was the most ruthless.
In order to eat the enemy in front of him as quickly as possible and minimize casualties, after seizing the surrounding commanding heights and pressing the two Japanese squadrons into a small valley, Du Kaishan followed the mountain slope and captured several captured
All ten barrels of gasoline were poured down and a fire was lit.
It was late spring and early summer, and the grass in the valley had grown extremely tall. In addition, there had been some drought since the beginning of spring, and the grass and trees were very easy to burn. He lit the fire, and the valley instantly became ablaze.
It was engulfed in fire. The fire in the valley was so bright that it could be seen clearly from dozens of miles away in the night.
The Japanese troops in the valley could not resist the fire and tried their best to break out of the valley, but were killed and injured by more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns and mortars placed at the exits on both sides.
The firepower net composed of artillery shells devoured the lives of every Japanese soldier who tried to leave this valley that had become a purgatory.
The two exits of the valley were littered with Japanese corpses. This could hardly be called a battle, but an out-and-out unilateral massacre.
Looking at the Japanese troops struggling in the fire at the bottom of the mountain, Du Kaishan smiled gloomily. Although the casualties of his second regiment in this afternoon's battle have not yet been calculated, they are only a rough casualty number, which already makes him feel distressed.
It's terrible. Two of the three infantry battalions were disabled. Nearly half of the entire regiment suffered casualties.
Especially when breaking through the second Japanese blockade, faced with the blocking of two Japanese squadrons, the Second Battalion, which took over the attack from the First Battalion, was severely bitten by the Japanese, causing more than half of the casualties. The battalion commander and instructors all died, and three
Two company commanders were sacrificed. When a full infantry battalion withdrew, it could only be reduced to an infantry company.
In order to take this breath, Du Kaishan organized the remnants of the two battalions and his own guard company into one battalion based on the three battalions that had just been returned from Liu Changshun. They all went into battle from the beginning. He adopted the method of squeezing from the north to the south.
His tactics forced the Japanese army into this small valley. In his words, I couldn't sell iron at all.
Looking at the gloomy expression of the regiment commander next to him, Tao Jingfei, who knew that he was feeling bad because of the heavy casualties in his troops, didn't know how to comfort him. As a political commissar, he was even more distressed by the heavy casualties in his troops. But this was the gap, in terms of the real combat effectiveness of the Japanese army.
difference.
She also didn’t want the troops to suffer huge casualties in the next battle, so even though she thought Du Kaishan’s tactics were a bit excessive, Tao Jingfei still chose to support it. It was just the smell of barbecued human flesh coming from the bottom of the mountain that made Tao Jingfei waste her money.
It took so much effort to suppress the vomiting feeling in my chest.
In order to maintain her dignity as the leader, Tao Jingfei resisted vomiting on the spot. But other soldiers watching the battle on the mountain did not have the need. Many people smelled the smell of barbecued human flesh and vomited on the spot. For those around them,
Du Kaishan shook his head but said nothing about the performance of his cadres and soldiers.
When someone among the soldiers whispered that his tactics were harmful to Tianhe, Du Kaishan was even more dissatisfied: "Anything harmful to Tianhe is bullshit. The Japanese killed 300,000 people in Nanjing and they didn't even see it.
What kind of retribution? I just burned a few two-legged beasts to death with a fire, and God will thunder and strike? Then God is really blind."
Du Kaishan, who cooked two squadrons of Japanese soldiers into a barbecue, was the first among the three to end the battle. It could be said that he ate it without paying any price except for the dozens of barrels of gasoline that were originally to be handed over.
Du Kaishan, who had captured two Japanese squadrons, immediately turned around and ran over to grab food from Liu Changshun.
The fire set by Du Kaishan could be seen clearly from dozens of miles away. Tsutsutarou Kawajana, who was surrounded by Wang Guangyu on a hill only a thousand meters away from here, naturally could also see it clearly.
.Looking at the flames soaring into the sky, Taro Kawajama couldn't help but feel twitching in his heart.
Gritting his teeth with hatred, he knew that the fire could not be set by his own troops, but could only be a fire attack carried out by the opponent to reduce casualties. The terrain there was such that when Taro Kawama Tsutsuki had taken over the position of the Fourth Division, he had
I have gone to see it. I know it is a small valley in the mountains.
No matter which troops are driven in, as long as the opponent uses firepower to contain the exits at both ends of the valley, they will probably be trapped and die inside. As for the outcome of the troops trapped there, he can even close his eyes and imagine it. Especially now.
It was the fire coming from there that made him know clearly that his troops trapped there might have been completely destroyed.
Those who saw the fire were not only the surviving officers and soldiers of the 44th Regiment that had been divided into pieces, but also the Lin Fang Detachment of the Fourth Division on the Southern Front. They were also seen clearly.
After the third brigade saw the fire, they intensified their attack intensity. Lin Fang's detachment, which was already half-dead in the offensive, moved even more slowly. The Japanese troops who participated in the attack refused to move no matter how much Lin Fangtaro urged them.
Although he had lost direct contact with the 44th Regiment, this light made Lin Fangtaro clearly know that the 44th Regiment was probably at the end of its rope. If he, who was so close at hand, could not rescue the 44th Regiment,
If I go back, not only myself, but also the division commander will probably be severely punished by the Kwantung Army Headquarters.
However, no matter how many threats Lin Yoshitaro made, even threatening to send all officers to a military court, it was still to no avail. His subordinates just couldn't come up with a decent offensive. He just forced this squadron to attack, but the other squadron retreated.
After being tired for a long time but finding nothing, Yoshitaro Hayashi had no choice but to send a telegram to Shigeru Sawada, reporting the actual situation and requesting that aircraft be sent to support the 44th Regiment.
After receiving the report from Lin Fangtaro, Sawada Shigeru, who had withdrawn to Jiamusi, did not speak for a long time. After receiving a telegram from the 44th Regiment before crossing the river, he was unable to get in touch with the 44th Regiment.
Although the Fourteenth Regiment had already been mentally prepared for the outcome, they were still shocked by the situation of the Forty-fourth Regiment.
As for Lin Fangtaro's report on the performance of the Lin Fang detachment, Sawada Shigeru had already known it. Otherwise, before withdrawing, he would not have told Kuroiwa Yoshikatsu to pay more attention to the southern front and not place his hopes on the Lin Fang detachment.
However, although he was mentally prepared, he did not expect the development of things, and it continued to develop in the direction that he least wanted to see.
It's just that he somewhat can't figure out why his opponent didn't pick on the soft persimmon of Lin Fang's detachment, but turned to the tough guy of the 44th Regiment. Sawada Shigeru knew very well about the combat effectiveness of the 44th Regiment, and it was definitely far ahead of him.
Above the Fourth Division.
If we just talk about the quality of individual soldiers and tactical literacy, Lin Fang's detachment, which is also from an old division, is naturally not bad. But when it comes to the tenacious spirit of fighting and the desperate spirit of dedicating oneself to the emperor, Lin Fang's detachment and the 44th Regiment are not inferior.
Compared with the other teams, Li Xu is not the only one who is worse.
Thinking of this, Sawada Shigeru, who had always been puzzled by his opponent's neglect of the soft persimmon of Lin Fang's detachment, but chose to gnaw on the hard nut of the 44th Regiment, figured it out. If Lin Fang's detachment was attacked first, it would follow the usual habit of the Japanese army.
, No matter what the estrangement between the 44th Regiment and the 4th Division was before, they will definitely try their best to rescue them.
If the 44th Regiment is attacked first, judging from the consistent behavior of the Osaka soldiers of Lin Fang's detachment, they will never go out of their way to rescue. At most, they will just do some superficial actions and handle errands. Let them work hard.
To rescue friendly troops, it would be even more uncomfortable to kill them directly.
Seeing that it was not so much a report but a telegram asking for help from Lin Fangtaro, Sawada Shigeru couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was ordered to withdraw all troops to rescue Jiamusi, from Jiamusi to Qunce Mountain, except for Lin Fang's detachment, which served as the flank of the 44th Regiment.
Not even a single soldier of the Fourth Division was left. Except for the whole army to attack Qunce Mountain again, the Fourth Division now had no troops to send.
Lieutenant General Sawada Shigeru, who no longer dares to have any illusions about the Fourth Division, knows that when the Fourth Division encounters war, they will collectively pretend to be sick. Even if they have been concentrated, they will not be able to set off without three to five days of preparation.
Sawada Shigeru could only forward this telegram to the Kwantung Army Headquarters. He hoped that the Kwantung Army Headquarters could urge the First Division starting from Heihe to speed up its march and get to the front line of Qunce Mountain as soon as possible to join the battle.
This fight has been going on for several days. The troops of the 1st Division, which was cooperating with the Kwantung Army Headquarters in accordance with the plan, have not shown up yet, making Lieutenant General Sawada Shigeru very dissatisfied. Previously, the main force of his 4th Division was here.
With enough troops to be used, Sawada Shigeru naturally would not care about the First Division, the Japanese Army's famous division. But now that he had no troops to send, he naturally thought of the First Division, which had not been seen for a long time.
force.
As for sending planes, Sawada Shigeru even smiled bitterly. The planes at Jiamusi Airport were turned into a pile of scrap metal. However, the fighter planes originally scheduled for Qunce Mountain in other directions were temporarily transferred to Hailar by the Kwantung Army to support the increasingly serious situation.
I'm nervous. It's already a war-filled border between Manchuria and Mongolia. Do you still have any planes on hand that you can send?
The Kwantung Army headquarters attaches far greater importance to the polar bear in the north than Qunce Mountain. Not to mention that all the aviation units have been mobilized, even its own fourth division has been ordered to mobilize. Because it was ordered to clear Qunce Mountain, the mobilization has been completed.
The Fourth Division was actually included in the first batch of reinforcements. The Kwantung Army headquarters has called several times to inquire about the progress of the clearing of Qunce Mountain.
Sawada Shigeru didn't know how the brainwashed staff officers at the Kwantung Army Headquarters would think of the Fourth Division. Aren't they afraid that other divisions would be implicated by these Osaka soldiers? Aren't they afraid that these Osaka soldiers would mess up the entire battle?
Fighting against a guerrilla-type anti-Manchu anti-Japanese armed force, they were barely able to cope. As soon as they retreated to Jiamusi, they all asked for leave and were hospitalized, and acted as if they were all seriously ill and about to die at any time. They were tricked by Jiamusi.
The tragic sight of the piles of corpses of the puppet Manchukuo soldiers and police shocked me.
This is how they deal with a ragtag group of anti-Manchu armed forces. If they are asked to deal with the Soviet army, which has planes above and swarms of heavy artillery and tanks below. Their weapons and equipment are far better than the Japanese army, why don't they turn around and run away?
In fact, not to mention those Osaka soldiers who regard money as their life were frightened by the tragedy in Jiamusi City, even Zetian Shigeru was shocked. The entire Japanese military camp in Jiamusi City used to be neat, and the Fourth Division can be called
The division headquarters, the most majestic building in Jiamusi City, as well as important buildings such as the Puppet Manchukuo Sanjiang Provincial Government, Jiamusi Municipal Government, and the train station have all become ruins. They were either reduced to ruins by the war, or were intentionally blown up by the other side.
In a square in the city, the corpses of senior Puppet Manchukuo military and political personnel and Japanese personnel in the Puppet Manchukuo military and police were piled up into a hill with signs hanging on their bodies. The slogans on the corpses indicated that these people were captured after
, executed for treason.
No wonder Lieutenant General Doihara Kenji couldn't sit still after the loss of Jiamusi. As a result of his opponent's actions, almost all the senior Manchukuo personnel in Sanjiang Province were wiped out. The elites among various military and police officers, that is, Japanese personnel also
They were all wiped out. A large number of files, documents and various materials were either burned or looted. In other words, the entire Sanjiang Province was completely paralyzed at this time.
For Sawada Shigeru, he doesn't care no matter how many Manchukuo people die. He is not the commander of the Kwantung Army and does not have to be responsible to the Manchukuo government. But the loss of a large amount of materials originally stored in Jiamusi makes him feel distressed. Don't say it.
Not a single grain of stockpiled weapons, ammunition, money and belongings in various Japanese-owned banks was left, and not even a grain of food was left. Everything that could not be taken away was blown up and burned. It was not only the Fourth Division that was deprived of food, but even those in the city.
Tens of thousands of Japanese were without food.
However, in just one day, the opponents moved almost all of Jiamusi. After the Fourth Division, which had finally managed to get a dozen ferries across the Songhua River in Tangyuan County upstream, withdrew to Jiamusi, it was unable to even eat.
The loss of various private property stored by the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Division in Jiamusi also made the entire Fourth Division almost vomit blood with distress. Kitano Gaojin, who stayed behind in Jiamusi, was almost eaten alive.
If the Fourth Division had not had time to give Kitano Takatsu, who had caused huge losses to everyone, Shigeru Sawada, who was in the hot seat because of the huge losses in Jiamusi, not polite at all, he came up to Kitano who came to report.
Gao Jin was so loud that the face of this guy who thought he had merit for sticking to his guns was so swollen that he could not speak.
After receiving the telegram from Lin Fangtaro asking for help, the furious Sawada Shigeru stared at Kitano Takatsu with almost murderous eyes. If this guy hadn't abandoned Jiamusi so quickly, how could he have been so passive? What if the first
The 4th Division is all here, even if it is a little bit worse, why does the 44th Regiment need to be trapped in a tight siege? If the 44th Regiment is really lost, how should I report to the Kwantung Army Headquarters and the commander of the 11th Division, Yunaka Watahisa?
Will you explain?
Seeing the division commander looking at him with red eyes, Kitano Takatsu almost wet his pants without being frightened. He didn't know that he didn't lose all his troops and barely managed to hold on to his position. Why was the division commander so angry?
After a long silence, Lieutenant General Sawada Shigeru said: "Major Kitano, you did finally defend the barracks. But your responsibility is not to defend the barracks, but to defend the entire Jiamusi. After losing the entire city, you only defended one place that was beaten.
What’s the use of a shabby military camp?”
"And because of your mistake, the 44th Regiment is now involved in a conflict with the anti-Manchu armed forces.
