In response to Zhang Zhenhua's rhetorical question, Yang Zhen did not answer him immediately, but looked very tired and closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. Zhang Zhenhua's words about "should we learn from them and become as inhumane as them" obviously greatly stimulated him.
.【.Com text】As for the following sentence, if the central government knew about it, it would be very detrimental to him. It was not untouched, but it was not big. After a long silence, Yang Zhenmeng opened his eyes. Although the voice sounded like he was talking to himself,
But what he said was clearly addressed to Zhang Zhenhua: "If a mad dog keeps biting you and wants to eat you alive, what should you do? Should you use all means to beat it up?
?Let it run away when it sees you in the future?"
After that, Yang Zhen looked at the marching group outside the window of the car he was riding in and was sent back by the commander-in-chief and said: "Since these things were developed by little Japan to specifically harm the Chinese, then they should think that one day
I will suffer the same retaliation."
"They have opened Pandora's box, and they will have to bear the consequences. These things cannot only harm the Chinese people, but the demons who use them are not punished in any way. I said that I am not broad-minded and cannot learn.
Those things about repaying evil with kindness."
"I only know that I will use all means to retaliate against those who harm my Chinese compatriots by any means. Tooth for tooth, eye for eye. If you give me a punch, I won't be able to beat you. But even if it means biting, I will bite."
I'll give you a piece of your flesh and do the same to the other person. That's the best way to get revenge, isn't it?"
"Talking to those beasts about benevolence, righteousness and morality? You think too highly of them. When friends come, of course there will be good wine, but when the wolves come, the only thing that greets them is shotguns. I am not Mr. Dongguo, but I am the farmer and the snake.
I will not do anything like raising tigers as a farmer."
The treasures Yang Zhen and Zhang Zhenhua talked about were none other than the thousands of 75mm poison gas shells dropped when the 104th Division on the front line of Guanmenzuizi Mountain was defeated. Most of them were extremely lethal.
A large amount of suffocating gas, and a small amount of corrosive gas.
Now that Yang Zhen has decided to cross the Yangtze River and go south, the two infantry brigades of the Fourth Division, a cavalry brigade, and the cavalry regiment of the Second Division currently stationed at the mouth of the Lianjiang River have not only become the biggest obstacles, but also become the biggest obstacles for him to go south.
The biggest worry in combat.
Among the Japanese troops stationed in the entire Xiajiang area, except for the 24th Division, which suffered a severe blow and lost its combat capability, it had withdrawn to the so-called Xinjing for reinforcements. Most of the 25th Division was defeated, leaving only
The Fourteenth Regiment is still far away from the front line of the Haoliang River, and now only the Fourth Division remains.
This Fourth Division is not only the only remaining field division of the Japanese army in the entire Jiamusi area, but also its main force responsible for river defense tasks. If you want to fight out, this Fourth Division will be your main opponent. This Fourth Division will be your main opponent.
The fourth division's ability to fight in the field is not strong, but after the last detour to Jiamusi, Yang Zhen still had some headaches about the fourth division's ability to defend the city.
Judging from the habits of the Fourth Division, if they retreat to Jiamusi, it will not only take a lot of time to capture Jiamusi, but more importantly, it will cause unnecessary casualties. So Yang Zhen has made up his mind.
, now that the fourth division has come out, it is best to annihilate them in a field battle.
Especially in the fourth division's defense line, it starts from Fujin on the Manchurian-Soviet border in the north and is distributed along the Songhua River to the junction of Jiamusi and Yilan. Its troops are now dispersed and deployed. The two infantry brigades on the front line of Lianjiangkou plus a cavalry
The brigade is almost the entire garrison in Jiamusi at the moment. Once this Japanese army is wiped out, Jiamusi, which is empty of troops, will have almost no troops to defend.
Now that he has made up his mind to defeat or even annihilate this Japanese army, all Yang Zhen has to consider is how to finish the battle as quickly as possible with the least casualties. However, with insufficient artillery shells and the troops having been fighting continuously for more than a month, they are already exhausted.
Under the circumstances, in order to achieve maximum results with minimum casualties.
Despite some hesitation, Yang Zhen was determined to use the thousands of Japanese poison gas shells seized at the front line of Guanmenzuizi Mountain. It was now October, the north wind began to blow, and the weather began to turn cooler.
Going south, we are on the upper wind. The current wind direction and timing are the best opportunities to launch a poison gas war. And the wind is not strong now. Although the Lianjiangkou line is only separated from Jiamusi by a river, there is no need to worry about these poison gas shells.
Endangering the urban area of Jiamusi in the south of the Yangtze River.
After saying these words, Yang Zhen closed his eyes again and did not explain anything. Zhang Zhenhua on the other side listened to his words and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he fell into a thoughtful state.
When arriving at the front line of Shuangfatun, Yang Zhen met Yu Wenze who came to rescue him. After seeing Yang Zhen, Yu Wenze said with some shame: "I'm sorry, commander, the battle was not fought well and the Japanese troops who fled south were not able to be wiped out.
You can criticize me."
The battle was not fought well, and what he said before was a bit loud, which made Yu Wenze feel embarrassed when he saw Yang Zhen. In fact, he knew that many people in the army had opinions about the fact that the cavalry battalion had not participated in the war since its establishment.
.The daily consumption of a cavalry is almost equal to that of a squad of infantry.
The consumption of a cavalry battalion, not counting weapons and equipment, is enough for a regiment to eat horses and chew them alone. You must know that an infantry regiment under Yang Zhen has a full strength of 3,000 people. These horses, which require balanced nutrition, are comparable to human energy.
The more he eats, the more picky he becomes. At the very least, the large amount of bean cakes required to supplement the nutrition of the war horse every day is a huge number.
These war horses used to charge into battle are not the horses that drive the shafts and plow the fields with just some fodder. They need a lot of highly nutritious feed. Therefore, the troops can eat and drink, but they have been pampered and unable to go to war since their formation.
The cavalry battalion had great opinions.
Especially in this cavalry battalion, ahead of other troops, it was almost simultaneously equipped with the commander's eyeball reconnaissance battalion, which made other troops' eyes red. It was equipped with a 60mm mortar that was much more powerful than a grenade. And compared with it,
, after the Type 92 heavy machine gun currently equipped as the main force in the army is a rubbish Type 81 general-purpose machine gun, what the infantry said was a bit unpleasant.
So this time the cavalry battalion team, especially the battalion commander Yu Wenze, after receiving the order to pursue the Japanese army, made up their minds to fight a beautiful battle and silence the infantry.
However, the plan did not change quickly. Yu Wenze, who was full of confidence, did not expect that his first punch would hit the iron plate. In his eyes, the fight was already a certainty, but it ended in an anticlimax. This really made him lose face.
Some can't come down.
Looking at Yu Wenze who looked depressed, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Don't say anything if you want to apologize. What's more, under the circumstances, what you did was not wrong. Compared with not kicking away the first time,
What I'm more worried about is whether you will be hot-headed and cause unnecessary losses to the troops. Now it seems that you have done a good job. I did not choose the wrong person to entrust you with this cavalry battalion."
After comforting Yu Wenze, Yang Zhen habitually opened the map and said: "You are the closest unit of our army to the Lianjiang mouth. You have been tracking and pursuing the remnants of the Second Division since the Japanese army picked them up.
You should be very clear about the movements of the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou. Now you can report on the movements of the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou."
Yang Zhen's comfort obviously made Yu Wenze feel much better. After hearing Yang Zhen's request for a briefing, he quickly said: "Commander, except for the Second Cavalry Regiment, there are no new troops on the Lianjiangkou front line. They have
After picking up the remnants of the Second Division, they all retreated back to the Lianjiangkou line. Even if they advanced north, they did not withdraw to the south of the Yangtze River."
"However, we found that the Japanese army was mobilizing ferries from the south of the Yangtze River and docked on the river near the mouth of the Japanese Lianjiang River. In addition, several gunboats from the puppet Manchuria Army also moved over and parked in the middle of the river, with their muzzles pointing towards the north bank.
As soon as there is any disturbance on the north bank, we will use cannon fire."
"From the surface, the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou seem to be preparing to retreat. As for the strength of the troops before our arrival, I don't know. By the way, there is another situation. Before you arrived, I mobilized a cavalry
We even tried to lure the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou into battle. We wanted to find out the true movements of the Japanese troops."
"But although the Japanese army responded to the challenge, they did not send cavalry. Instead, they sent tanks, more than 20 tanks. In addition to the Bean tanks and Type 95 light tanks seen on the battlefield in Guanhai, there are two other tanks that I don't have
I have seen them. One is a light tank equipped with a large-caliber machine gun, and the other is equipped with an artillery with a caliber of at least fifty millimeters."
"I saw the Japanese army dispatching tanks, and I knew that our cavalry's sabers alone couldn't cut these things down. We didn't have infantry's 37mm rapid-fire cannons. If we fought hard, we would be the unlucky ones. So, in
I immediately chose to retreat after I discovered that the Japanese troops had dispatched tanks."
"Also, the provocation of the Japanese troops on the front line of Lianjiangkou was only one that could be called a counterattack. The rest was that no matter how we harassed us, we only used artillery fire, especially the artillery fire from the warships on the river.
The cavalry, including the one and only tank, never came out again."
Hearing that the Japanese army on the front line of Lianjiangkou actually had tanks, and there were more than 20 tanks, Yang Zhen couldn't help but frown, and he was even more grateful that the so-called decisive gas he had prepared for the Japanese army arrived. Except for those in the pass, his troops
Apart from the few veterans who were captured on the battlefield, most of the cadres and soldiers had never seen what a tank looked like.
Although in daily training, I built a tank model with wood and even cement. But when I saw this kind of almost invulnerable guy for the first time, even if each regiment was equipped with enough to penetrate most Japanese tanks
Japanese-style 37 rapid-fire cannons, but who can guarantee that the troops will not be in chaos when they see these tanks for the first time?
After a moment of silence, Yang Zhen raised his head and said to Yu Wenze, who was looking at him: "Your mission here can be terminated. You immediately lead your cavalry battalion eastward to the mouth of the Quanhe River, and cooperate with the three
The brigade is forced to cross the Songhua River. As for the tasks after crossing the river, Brigadier Du Kaishan will tell you when you get there."
Hearing that Yang Zhen wanted to transfer him, Yu Wenze did not dare to say it openly, but he whispered in private: "There are no Japanese cavalry in the third brigade, why transfer us there? The Japanese 2nd and 4th divisions
The cavalry of the regiment are all on the front line of Lianjiangkou now. Isn’t it true that we are overqualified and overqualified if we are to fight the Japanese infantry?”
Regarding Yu Wenze's dissatisfied muttering, Yang Zhen did not get angry or pay attention to him. Seeing that the commander was no longer paying attention to Yu Wenze, Qu Xiangdong next to him pulled Yu Wenze's sleeve and whispered: "Stop talking.
Just obey the order. If you dare to bargain with the commander, you are not afraid of making the commander anxious and send us back to the rear."
Although they had not been partners for long, Qu Xiangdong obviously understood the character of his somewhat hasty partner. Yu Wenze did not dare to argue anymore if he was transferred to the rear. It would be better if he was transferred to the third brigade.
If he were to fight for something while being transferred to the rear, he would really go back empty-handed this time. That would be a real loss of face.
After Yu Wenze, who was silent, was pulled away by Qu Xiangdong, Yang Zhen turned around and said to Li Mingrui, who had arrived at some time: "Have you figured out the situation of the Japanese troops on the front line at Lianjiangkou?"
Although the two people did not say anything explicitly about the situation, they knew each other well. Although the several staff officers around them did not know what Yang Zhen was asking about, they probably couldn't tell from the situation that Commander Li of the Labor Reconnaissance Battalion personally took action.
Simple tactical information. Several staff officers who had been following Yang Zhen for a long time and were familiar with confidentiality rules looked at each other and consciously walked away.
Seeing several staff officers walking away, Li Mingrui still did not speak loudly, but reported in a low voice: "Commander, according to the confessions of several Japanese prisoners of war we captured in Jiangbei in the past two days, because the Japanese army this time
There was no preparation for a gas war, so the Japanese troops on the entire Lianjiangkou front line did not carry any gas masks."
"As for why the Japanese army gave up their usual poison gas warfare method, it was because they knew through interrogating our prisoners of war that our army had a full set of Japanese gas masks, and their poison gas warfare was simply ineffective against our army. That's why they gave up using poison gas.
As a means to win.”
"As for those tanks, Battalion Commander Yuwen did not report wrongly. These new tanks were just transferred yesterday to replace the main force of the Fourth Division Cavalry Regiment that was transferred three months ago. The Japanese army adjusted its operations at the beginning of this year
The structure of the divisions gradually began to replace the cavalry regiments of each division with tanks and armored vehicles.
"However, due to the insufficient number of tanks produced, and the main production has to supplement the 1st Tank Division, which lost a lot of money in the Battle of Nomenhan. Therefore, it can only replace half of the cavalry regiment. The cavalry regiments of each division
The team still maintains a certain number of cavalry. However, the remaining cavalry has been reduced from the previous regiment to a large group."
"Although the Fourth Division is notorious among the Japanese army, because it has a strong backing and ranks high among the Japanese army, it became the first batch of troops to be adjusted. This treatment was even given to the second batch of troops who fought with us before.
There are no divisions yet. In the entire Kwantung Army, only the First Division stationed at Sun Wu and the Fourth Division have completed the change of uniforms."
"Commander, among the Japanese prisoners of war we captured this time, there was a Japanese deputy captain who crossed the river privately and returned to Jiamusi. There was also a communications and liaison staff officer sent by the Japanese army back to Jiangbei. We also eavesdropped on the Japanese army's wired communications. I can
I guarantee that this information is absolutely true."
