Chapter two hundred and forty-four the devastated Zetian Shigeru
Looking at the list of seized supplies, Yang Zhen just sighed for a while, then handed the list to Ma Chunsheng and said: "In addition to supplementing the losses of various parts of the artillery, the excess will be handed over to Ma Qichang to be transported back to Luobei. As for the mountain shells among the artillery shells,
, all are replenished on the spot to each unit. [.Com text]"
"These tanks are a bit troublesome. No one in our army can drive them. In this way, you select some drivers from the motor battalion and I will show them how to drive them. In any case, these treasures must be brought back first. As for training,
We can only wait until the future."
"Send a telegram to Zhang Zhenhua and ask him to transfer all the trucks and drivers. Use the captured Japanese military vehicles to immediately transport all the excess ammunition, grain, and gasoline back to the Xingshan area. Although these materials are not too much
, but it’s enough to sustain us for a while.”
After explaining the use of the seized materials, Yang Zhen hesitated and personally drafted a telegram and handed it to Ma Chunsheng and said: "Let's do it according to your opinion. Du Kaishan and Tao Jingfei will be dismissed from their posts and retained for punishment. The rest will wait for the war.
After it is over, I will discuss with the political commissar and chief of staff before handling it."
Having said this, Yang Zhen waved his hand and said: "Okay, this matter is over. The cleanup here has been completed, the prisoners have been sent back, and our entire army is crossing the river south. Send a report to the Chief of Staff and tell us where we are.
situation. In addition, let him unified command of a brigade and a division of troops to find opportunities to cross the river and capture Fujin, Tongjiang, and Fuyuan counties."
"In addition, tell the chief of staff to pay more attention to the Urguli Mountain area eleven kilometers southeast of Fujin County. There is a hidden and huge fortress built by the Japanese army there similar to the Xingshan Fortress. Even if Fujin cannot be captured,
The whole territory, but the workers in this fortress must be rescued.”
After Ma Chunsheng quickly recorded several orders from Yang Zhen, he suddenly remembered something and said: "Commander, although we did not capture Sawada Shigeru this time, we found the unconscious Japanese Fourth Brigade Commander Kobayashi among the prisoners.
Major General Asaburo Asaburo, as well as Major General Katayama Shozaburo, commander of the 15th Brigade of the Second Division, and Colonel Yasumaru Takeuchi, commander of the 37th Regiment.
"Major General Asaburo Kobayashi and Major General Shozaburo Katayama are the only two major general-level officers of the Japanese army captured by our army so far. They are also the highest-ranking Japanese officers we have captured so far."
"In addition, just last night our logistics and transportation troops encountered dozens of Japanese troops in the area north of Fuguitun. The escorting troops wiped out the Japanese troops after an hour of fierce fighting. All but one of these Japanese troops were killed.
.After interrogating the only prisoner of war, it can be determined that this is the Japanese Second Division Headquarters who escaped from General Shixian."
"Through the identification of Japanese prisoners, we found the bodies of Lieutenant General Anjing Fujiji, commander of the Japanese Second Division, and Colonel Bai De of the 30th Regiment of the Second Division among this Japanese army."
"With this net, we caught a lot of big fish. We killed one lieutenant general, captured two major generals, and a colonel. We also killed Lieutenant Colonel Takushiro Hattori, the former chief of the operational staff of the Kwantung Army who tried to escape after being captured.
.Commander, I would like to ask for instructions on how to deal with these senior prisoners?"
Hearing Ma Chunsheng's request for instructions on how to deal with several captured Japanese generals, Yang Zhen thought for a moment and frowned: "Put these people in separate custody. Tell Gao Yumin that these senior Japanese soldiers must be rescued by me. In addition,
, they must not be allowed to commit suicide.”
Having said this, Yang Zhen pondered for a moment and then said to Ma Chunsheng: "Go and make arrangements yourself. Doesn't the Political Department have a film team sent by Jiangbei to shoot battlefield documentaries? You ask them to take all these high-level prisoners of war.
Shoot it in. But the fact that we used poison gas bombs must not be leaked."
"The battle on the front line of Lianjiangkou must be kept strictly confidential. A group of capable forces should be mobilized from the headquarters and the political department to closely monitor the people in Jiangbei. In addition, tell Gao Yumin and let them report to the commander-in-chief. After these films are completed,
They have to review it personally. Read it carefully for me. If it involves confidential matters, no matter what the attitude of the people in Jiangbei is, they must be deleted resolutely. Two more copies are required. One copy should be sent to the central government."
Ma Chunsheng nodded and went to arrange it. Ma Chunsheng was the most staunch supporter of Yang Zhen’s proposal to use the captured phosgene gas bombs from the Japanese army at the Lianjiang mouth. In his view, since the Japanese army was able to do anything during the battle
It is unnecessary to say that as one of the biggest victims of the Japanese poison gas war, the Chinese *** team should imitate Song Xianggong and play with benevolence, justice and morality. Even if flaws cannot be reported, everything must be done with minimal casualties and as quickly as possible.
The main thing is to destroy the Japanese army.
However, Ma Chunsheng did not expect the rich results of this victory. Not only did he seize a large number of weapons and equipment, but he also captured two Japanese major generals and a colonel. This time it was not just as simple as making a fortune. The battlefield in the pass was in full swing, and several Japanese soldiers were killed.
Millions of troops captured and killed each other. Not to mention the capture of major general-level officers, not even one was killed. But this time, two were captured at once, which was not easy. As for how they were captured, why did they care about so many?
The only thing that made Ma Chunsheng distressed was the war horses of the Japanese Second Cavalry Regiment and the Fourth Cavalry Brigade. Even if these war horses were rescued, their lungs had been severely damaged and they could not be used as war horses because their lungs had been contaminated by poisonous gas.
These functions are no longer enough to support their long-distance running.
Yang Zhen's method for dealing with these war horses is very simple. They can also be used as driving shafts or pack transport, and they are transferred to the production and construction troops or left to the logistics troops. All those that have completely lost their use value are solved. It's just how many Yang Zhen
It is a pity that the Japanese war horses were also castrated, otherwise they could be used as stallions.
These war horses were bred after the Japanese army spent a lot of money to introduce Western horses and cross-bred them. Their performance is extremely good. Whether it is short-distance sprinting or long-distance running, they are extremely good war horses. If they are not castrated, they can be used as their own.
A breed of horse that produces war horses.
In fact, no one, including Yang Zhen, expected that such a big result could be achieved this time. It was not just the right bet. This was just one of the reasons. The real reason was that they had not been trained in chemical warfare.
It is simply not known how many gas bombs can be used at one time to achieve appropriate and effective results.
In later generations, Yang Zhen, who had been trained in poison gas identification, knew the general performance of phosgene and how to protect it. But for the rapidly changing chemical warfare equipment of later generations, compared with advanced poison gases such as soman and sarin, light
He only used this outdated poisonous gas as part of his daily training to understand its general performance.
Yang Zhen, who didn't know how to use the poisonous gas and was afraid that the Japanese prisoner might do something wrong and not achieve the best effect, just kept ordering to shoot out the nearly a thousand luminous gas shells. Anyway, these things were left behind.
It requires professionals to maintain it. If you don't have this condition, you might as well take advantage of the opportunity and polish it off at once.
The yield of these phosgene shells specially designed for 75 mm caliber field artillery was gathered together. Coupled with the influence of wind speed, not to mention the thousands of Japanese troops gathered in a group at Lianjiangkou, it was a full Japanese brigade.
, although it may not cause many deaths, but it is probably enough to stun them all.
These nearly a thousand rounds of poison gas shells produced far more high-concentration poison gas than the Japanese military's chemical warfare regulations, causing heavy casualties to thousands of Japanese troops at Lianjiangkou. Within an hour, the acute poisoning mortality rate was as high as 30%. The rest
Most of them fell into coma directly due to poisoning.
Even those who were lucky enough to survive and not fall into coma also lost their ability to move due to poisoning. They could only watch helplessly as their opponents captured them easily. Yang Zhen could easily deal with this Japanese army composed of infantry, cavalry, artillery and tanks.
Troops, his caution in using these gas bombs actually helped a lot.
But this was something Yang Zhen never thought of. After all the main forces had crossed the Yangtze River and completed the finishing work on the front line of Lianjiang Mouth, it was pointless to stay in the north of the Yangtze River. Yang Zhen immediately took his front finger and moved as fast as possible.
Crossed the Songhua River and rushed towards Jiamusi, where the fierce fighting was taking place.
Compared with Yang Zhen, who is now relatively relaxed, the frontline battle of Renjiangkou was handed over to Major General Asaburo Kobayashi, and Sawada Shigeru, who was lucky enough to escape, was miserable.
If he wanted to fight, he didn't have many troops at his disposal. Even the arsenal in Jiamusi City was lost at some point. Except for a brigade guarding the city, which only had an average of thirty rounds of ammunition, he didn't have any.
Any ammunition used.
He wanted to leave. Although Jiamusi, which was not big in the first place, could not be said to be completely besieged, and the possibility of breaking through could not be said to be at all. However, he really could not afford to lose Jiamusi, the most important military branch of the Kwantung Army in the northeastern Manchuria region.
Logistics base responsibilities.
Here now not only are a large number of weapons and ammunition re-shipped by the Kwantung Army after the last battle of Jiamusi, but also weapons and ammunition that were just shipped less than a week ago and are ready to be replaced by the Japanese and puppet troops in Hulin, Mishan, Suiyang and other places.
He had packed more than 100,000 pieces of winter clothes, including cotton coats. They were all lost at once. He really couldn't bear the responsibility.
Although these warehouses and ammunition depots that store the winter supplies for the Manchu and Japanese puppet troops throughout the Northeast were unknown at what time last night, they were occupied by an extremely strange and well-equipped force that has not yet been found out how to infiltrate into the city.
The garrison troops didn't even make a sound, and were killed quietly and cleanly.
However, he didn't realize until dawn that several reserve warehouses filled with strategic materials had been completely lost. In other words, it made no difference whether they were lost or not.
But even if it has been lost, even if it is just a pretense, you still have to try to get it back. As long as you stay in the city, your responsibility is much smaller. Once these materials are lost, there are still as many as 20,000, which can be used to reorganize
The puppet Manchukuo soldiers in the Seventh Military District, an area hit hard by banditry, really cannot bear this responsibility.
Lieutenant General Sawada Shigeru, who is about to be transferred out of this damn Manchuria and promoted to deputy chief of staff, can finally stay away from this anti-Japanese force that has devoured a large number of the elite imperial army. He absolutely does not want to make any mistakes at this critical juncture.
.
After several failed counterattacks in an attempt to seize back the warehouse, Sawada Shigeru no longer dared to risk the strength of the only brigade at hand. In addition to mobilizing the Puppet Manchukuo military police in the city to besiege the opponent,
The first thing to do is to assemble the troops of the Fourth Division, which are located from Yilan in the west to Tongjiang in the north, and along the Songhua River, to wipe out these low-level troops who dare to enter the city to engage in petty theft.
.
As for the blockade mission, let him go to hell. If Jiamusi cannot be defended, almost all the imperial troops in the entire northeastern region will be hungry and freezing. If they can't eat or wear cotton-padded clothes, why should they talk about blockade or not?
It's just that some things go against people's wishes. In fact, for Sawada Shigeru, the loss of the material warehouse is just one of the things that worries him, and of course it is also one of the last unfortunate news that he knows.
In fact, the first serious blow to him was the unfortunate report he received at midnight that intensive artillery fire rang out from the north of the Yangtze River, and that the naval vessels on the river in the river were severely hit, and almost the entire army was destroyed.
Zetian Shigeru, who rushed to the remaining city wall north of Jiamusi as soon as he received the report, saw that during the day, he was still majestic in assisting him in shelling the harassing cavalry in the north of the Yangtze River, but now almost all of them were blazing with fire, and the tonnage was small.
The warships on the river that had begun to sink were almost crying without tears.
However, he wanted to return without tears, but Sawada Shigeru was not too worried about Jiangbei's troops. Coupled with the Second Cavalry Regiment that he had detained, and his own super strong configuration in private, it was almost the fourth division.
The regiment used all its artillery, and the front line at Lianjiangkou in the north of the Yangtze River was full of infantry, cavalry and artillery. The number of tanks alone was as high as more than 30.
Coupled with the huge reserves of ammunition, food, and extremely strong field fortifications that have been repaired. With these capitals, even if the opponent concentrates all their forces, it is impossible to eat them up in a short time. As long as they can persist.
, you will have time to mobilize reinforcements.
Before Sawada Shigeru could recover from the unfortunate news that all the river warships on the Songhua River had been destroyed, which meant that all retreat routes for his Jiangbei troops had been cut off. One after another, all contacts with the Jiangbei troops, including wired and wireless, were lost.
, the unfortunate news that a large number of anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese armed forces from Jiangbei appeared around Jiamusi was so shocked that it almost collapsed on the spot.
Almost all the 4th Division's garrison in Jiamusi are concentrated on the front line of Lianjiangkou in Jiangbei. Except for the troops transferred to Jiangbei, the entire city defense force of Jiamusi is patchwork, and the rest is just an infantry brigade. Still, almost all the heavy troops have been lost.
A pure infantry brigade with firearms. Once something happens in Jiamusi, Sawada Shigeru will hardly dare to report any illusions.
Sure enough, before Sawada Shigeru tried to find out what was going on in Jiangbei, why he only heard the sound of artillery fire from the other side, but in addition to the ships of the Jianggang Army, a large number of artillery and more than ten artillery positions were deployed along the line of Renjiangkou on his own side.
Except for a few occasional cannon shots, most of the artillery did not fire a single sound. The biggest unfortunate news came that the city had been infiltrated by opponents.
When Sawada Shigeru mobilized his troops to try to squeeze out or even eliminate the opponents who had penetrated into the city, he realized that he had bitten a rock firmly. The opponent's fierce and precise shooting was a perfect tactical coordination.
The Japanese troops who launched the counterattack suffered heavy casualties. A squadron was put in, and within an hour, there were still casualties.
The huge casualties made Zetian Shigeru have no choice but to resist the urge to destroy the opponent first, and concentrate all the Japanese and puppet troops in Jiamusi City to trap the opponent first. As for destroying them, he waited until the main force of the division was assembled. But he was disappointed.
However, before he could find out the situation after dawn and the telegram for mobilizing troops was sent out, he was shocked by the news that a large number of anti-Manchu armed forces appeared around the city.
