Chapter Two Hundred and Sixtieth Unavoidable Hurdles
As the commander-in-chief of the 18th Group Army, the main person in charge of the party's military, and actually the commander-in-chief of the entire army, his memory is amazing. When the Daqingshan Guerrilla Detachment received Guisui, he sent a telegram to the Jinsui Military Region and forwarded it to the Central Committee
He remembered what he wrote clearly.
The Anti-Japanese Alliance handed over all the ammunition and materials seized in Guisui City, except for gasoline and some food, the main weapons and ammunition were handed over to the Daqingshan Guerrilla Detachment. However, all the Japanese poison gas shells and bombs in stock in Guisui, as well as all
All the chemical weapons were transported away, not even a single smoke bomb was left behind.
Although the Daqingshan Guerrilla Detachment is not very clear about how many chemical weapons the Japanese army has stored in Guisui. However, according to limited information, the scale of the warehouses used by the Japanese army to store these chemical weapons in Guisui, as well as the situation around Guisui and Baotou, are not clear.
Look, this number is definitely not a small number.
According to the judgment of the detachment leader, the number of artillery shells and bombs should be around tens of thousands. This does not include a large number of poison gas cans, smoke tubes, smoke bombs and other distribution equipment, as well as piles of canned liquid poison gas.
Considering that once these poisonous gases were lost, it would pose a huge threat. The detachment leader who believed that this matter was serious reported the situation to the headquarters as soon as possible.
The detachment leader, who had suffered from Japanese poison gas in previous anti-mopping operations, was very worried about what the Anti-Japanese Alliance wanted to do with these poison gas bombs? The basic morals of being a human being, and the bottom line that a regular soldier should have
, which made him a little worried that the Anti-Japanese Alliance would use these gas bombs on the battlefield.
During the period of cooperating with the Anti-Japanese Alliance, he knew that the anti-Japanese anti-virus tools were very complete. When using these poisonous gases on the battlefield, he did not have to worry about any harm to himself. Although he was very disgusted and even hated the Japanese army's use of chemical weapons on the battlefield.
It penetrates into the bones.
But the morals and bottom line that a soldier should have still told him that although these chemical weapons are also a kind of weapon, they should not appear on the battlefield. Both the Japanese army and the Chinese army should stay away from this evil. It's just that
Chen Hanzhang was unable to answer his several inquiries because he did not know where the headquarters planned to use these gas bombs.
It is precisely because he has a very detailed grasp of these situations that the boss is very worried that Yang Zhen will retaliate in the desperate situation and use the gas bombs in his stock to desperately cover the troops outside Taiyuan City.
Evacuate. The boss still knows very well what gas bombs are.
Although there is currently no known weapon that is far more lethal than chemical weapons, it will be available in a few years and will be put into actual combat immediately. The Japanese were the only ones to use chemical weapons on a large scale on the battlefield of World War II.
Moreover, countries that only use chemical weapons against the Chinese have become the only actual targets of such weapons that can destroy the earth.
I only know that Yang Zhen is secretly working on something called atomic weapons in the Northeast, but because of his limited knowledge, he doesn’t know how lethal this atomic weapon is. The boss, who only thought that the elastic properties of poison gas were similar to poison gas,
This kind of weapon is a weapon that can only be used by beast troops like the Japanese army.
He was really worried in his heart that in such a difficult situation, Yang Zhen, who was so determined to spend huge sums of money to develop new weapons, would use these gas bombs at a critical moment in the battle. As a veteran soldier, the boss still
He is very particular about the moral bottom line among soldiers. He hates this kind of unscrupulous approach on the battlefield.
However, the severe enemy situation around Taiyuan City, the large number of sick and wounded waiting to evacuate, the machinery and equipment, and the few troops left in Yang Jicai's hands made him finally suppress the doubts. After all, the battle situation is first, if there are a large number of
Reinforcements, he would never allow Yang Zhen to use these chemical weapons on the battlefield. But now the war situation is at a delicate moment, and the boss can't say much.
That batch of industrial equipment is crucial to the development of military industry in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region. The troops around Taiyuan City are currently semi-surrounded by the Japanese army. The Japanese army is continuously attacking with heavy troops from the east, west and south.
Attack around Taiyuan City.
At this time, as long as the troops around Taiyuan City can be rescued and all the machinery and equipment can be safely transported out. If Yang Zhen really takes some necessary measures at the critical moment, the boss himself does not want to interfere too much. After all, the battlefield is now
The situation is compelling.
In fact, the boss was overly worried. Although there were many poison gas bombs seized in the Anti-Japanese Alliance, especially in Guisui, enough chemical weapons were seized to completely cover the entire Taiyuan battlefield in poison gas. But even though the current situation around the Taiyuan battlefield is very
It's dangerous. Yang Zhen will not give orders to use it easily.
It is true that in Guisui, the Anti-Japanese War seized more than 2,000 loaded mustard gas and Louis gas mixed 100- and 50-kilogram aerial poison gas bombs, as well as tens of thousands of poison gas shells and a large number of poison gas spreads.
If all the equipment is used on the Taiyuan battlefield, it will be enough to cover the entire area of dozens of kilometers around Taiyuan City. Your own troops can successfully evacuate with the help of this batch of poisonous gas.
The anti-alliance forces participating in the war have a complete set of gas masks, and the Japanese gas masks seized from Taiyuan City by the brother troops participating in the war can be used for each person. This time, the troops participating in the war in the pass can be reinforced by the Japanese army at all costs.
Under such circumstances, they persisted for such a long time. These Japanese-made gas masks seized from the Japanese army in Taiyuan can be said to be indispensable.
But what Yang Zhen is worried about is not the political impact of using captured poison gas weapons in this war. As the largest user of poison gas in the entire World War II, the Japanese are not qualified to make irresponsible remarks on this.
The reason why Yang Zhen did not order the use of this huge batch of seized chemical warfare weapons was because of the possible long-term and follow-up effects.
After this battle, without effective control of Taiyuan, the Anti-Japanese Federation was unable to send professionals to eliminate unexploded gas bombs, and was unable to clear poison gas in areas contaminated with poison gas. Once any of these gas bombs were unexploded, they would
It will cause serious harm to the local people.
Moreover, after passing through an area where poison gas is spread, the toxicity will remain for a long time. Yang Zhen had to consider this huge subsequent impact. Not only were the Japanese troops participating in the battlefield, but there were also a large number of ordinary people around the battlefield. And around Taiyuan,
The Jinzhong Basin is also a major grain producing area in Shanxi. Once infected by poisonous gas, farming will be impossible for a long time.
The huge damage caused by poison gas bombs, especially mustard gas, will be difficult to cure in China decades from now, not to mention the current lack of medical treatment for the Chinese people. If the Anti-Japanese Alliance can firmly control Taiyuan after this war,
Yang Zhen can send out chemical defense troops to completely clean up the battlefield. But the problem now is to abandon Taiyuan, not to finally control Taiyuan.
Shanxi is also an area with serious soil erosion. Once these gas bombs are not cleaned up in time and are covered by sand, the harm caused will last for decades. These chemical weapons of the Japanese army have poisoned enough Chinese people.
Ten years later, China is still suffering damage from chemical weapons abandoned by the Japanese army from time to time. Now the Chinese people should stop poisoning themselves.
What's more, the battlefield is so close to Taiyuan City, and the south wind is blowing now in spring. The damage caused by these gas bombs to the Japanese army may not be too great. But the entire Taiyuan City may be destroyed. At this moment
The number of Japanese troops and Japanese in Taiyuan City is not large, and the majority are Chinese.
These Chinese did not have any gas masks and did not even know what the poisonous gas was. After being poisoned, the Japanese would not take any first aid to them. Even if the wind was not blowing from the south, no matter which wind direction it was, the wind around Taiyuan at the moment was
It is not advisable to use these things under any circumstances.
The Japanese army used poison gas bombs to kill the Chinese people, which has deepened the suffering that the Chinese people are currently suffering. Yang Zhen would not use these weapons made by the Japanese to massacre the Chinese people to massacre his own flesh and blood compatriots. Although it is also
You know, the effect of using poison gas bombs at this time will definitely be much better.
But Yang Zhen has no plans to use these things around Taiyuan City. He would rather use the only dozen air-fuel bombs stored at Guisui Airport in the entire Suiyuan battlefield. The boss's worries are actually a bit unnecessary.
Of course, since the boss didn't take the initiative to ask about this kind of thing, Yang Zhen would not be idle and take the initiative to explain the matter himself.
Air-fuel bombs are somewhat similar to the gas tanks that were commonly used decades later, but the actual explosive power is much greater than that. This high-tech weapon of this era seems very simple, but in fact it involves
A complete knowledge system of scientific structure, physics, chemistry and other aspects.
Professional questions in this area should be answered by professionals when the boss goes to the Northeast for an inspection at the end of the war. As a half-hearted person, it is better not to be clumsy and talk a lot. As for what the boss thinks now, haha
, don’t worry about it for now.
Yang Zhen and his boss were both mobilizing troops for the general retreat from Taiyuan at this time, and Yang Zhen was risking suspicion and using all necessary means to cover the safe evacuation of the troops around Taiyuan City. This was not only
It is related to the war situation and the safety of his younger brother. In many cases, family ties are an unavoidable obstacle.
At this time, in Taiyuan, it has entered the final moment and arrangements are being made for a general evacuation. I don’t know that my elder brother is in Xing County, more than 200 kilometers away from Taiyuan, and I don’t know that my elder brother has made arrangements for me.
Yang Jicai, who was on an errand, had no time to think about his work arrangements after returning to northern Shanxi.
The director of the political department of the Eighth District of Jinsui was true to his word. Just eight hours after entering the final countdown, the last piece of equipment of the northwest steelmaking plant to be dismantled, that is, the converter made in Germany, had been
While being dismantled and placed on the flat car of the last train, Yang Jicai began to carry out a general evacuation.
He knew that under the current tight situation with the Japanese army, if he wanted the whole army to retreat safely, it would be almost impossible to retreat safely by relying on alternating cover alone. Once he was bitten by the surrounding Japanese army, he would be the last force to cover the general retreat.
, 100% impossible to withdraw.
After several days of hard fighting, the reinforced regiment of the Anti-Japanese Alliance that originally participated in the war has almost suffered casualties, and now there is not much left. If you cannot fully undertake all the retreat cover tasks, at least one regiment must be transferred from the fraternal troops in Guan Nei that participated in the war.
, can partially make up for the shortcomings.
Taking into account the relationship between the two armies and the future and development of the fraternal forces within the pass, Yang Jicai had to carefully consider the retreat plan. And this was not only considering the future, but also the ability to safely dismantle the equipment and a large number of wounded people.
, the last batch of technicians and workers who assisted in the disassembly, and of course the evacuation of all Japanese technicians in the entire Taiyuan City.
