As if to confirm Yang Zhen's worries, just as Yang Zhen finished speaking, intensive gunshots suddenly rang out from behind where Ma Ming was standing behind. [.Com text] Hearing the gunshots, Yang Zhen and those around him
Several people looked at each other and knew that the Japanese were chasing after them. The sound of gunshots was from Ma Ming, who was behind him, blocking the Japanese who were chasing after him.
Regarding the drastic change in the situation, Yang Zhen said without the slightest hesitation: "Lao Guo, order the troops to set off immediately and attack the Ashe River. Now most of the Ashe River is occupied by the puppet Manchukuo army and the puppet police. We can only
It’s a gamble that their fighting ability is no longer strong.”
"If it's too late, we'll really have no chance when the main force of the Japanese turns around. As long as we can cross the Ash River before the main force of the Japanese arrives, we still have a glimmer of hope."
After hearing Yang Zhen's order and knowing that the situation was critical, Guo Bingxun did not delay and immediately led the assembled brothers towards the Ashe River line at full speed.
It’s just that Yang Zhen reacted quickly, and the puppet Manchukuo army under the command of the Japanese army that blocked the banks of the Ash River also responded quickly. After receiving reports from the surrounding areas of unidentified people with accents in the pass, they immediately followed the instructions.
Huang Dali was chased in the direction pointed out by the informant.
Yang Zhen's prediction was correct. Huang Dali had already exposed his identity when he was buying clothes. It was just that the time was delayed due to communication. After all, this is not an era where everyone has a mobile phone. Even if he wants to report the news,
, and also found a place with a telephone. The Japanese and puppet troops who were currently fighting fiercely with Ma Ming behind Yang Zhen pursued him after receiving the report.
As for the person he asked about, after he left, he reported the message to the Puppet Manchukuo police who blocked the river bank. After receiving the report, Captain Inukai Koji, captain of the Japanese military police stationed in Acheng, commanded the Puppet Manchukuo army that blocked the river bank.
I feel that this person is probably one of the group of Chinese people that my superiors have designated to be captured.
Feeling that he had an opportunity to make a meritorious deed, the Japanese captain, who was privately called a son of a bitch by the local people because of his evil deeds, desperately gathered all the troops he could and pursued him in the direction pointed out by the man.
come over.
When the puppet Manchukuo troops commanded by Koji Inukai came to intercept, they encountered the vanguard troops commanded by Guo Bingxun at the front line of Sijiazi west of the Ash River. As soon as the gunfire rang out, he knew that his hunch was against him.
.
Although the people opposite were all wearing the Imperial Army's standard small lapel uniforms and holding the Imperial Army's standard weapons, they had been in the army for many years and were among the very few in the Japanese army who were promoted from soldiers to officers, and had served as military police in Manchuria for many years.
In order to suppress the anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese elements, he had sharpened his eyesight. Just by observing the marching posture of these people through the telescope, he could tell that those people were counterfeit products.
Although he was just the son of an ordinary fisherman in Kitakyushu, Inukai Koji, who had always been very particular about his appearance, looked at the puppet Manchukuo troops, under the supervision of the military police, who were attacking those thugs who dared to wear the uniforms of the imperial army and cause trouble.
He looked at the neatly trimmed snot beard under his nose and smiled proudly.
Inukai Koji thought in his mind that based on the importance the Kwantung Army attached to this incident, as long as he dealt with these thugs before the large army caught up, the rank above his shoulders should be upgraded to another level.
.
Judging from his many years of combat experience against the Alliance, although he was at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, he had over a hundred Manchurian policemen, policemen, and dozens of military police trained by the Empire under his command, and defeated these three hundred
There is absolutely no problem with multiple thugs. Inukai Koji is quite confident in these well-trained dogs in his eyes.
That's all, "military fortune lasts forever". On the territory of China, as long as there is strong force and money in hand, there will be loyal people. The lives of the soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army are precious and should be dedicated to conquering the world.
, instead of making unnecessary sacrifices while fighting those thugs in desolate Manchuria. Although this was an order from the Kwantung Army Military Police Headquarters, in his eyes, it was enough to eliminate these thugs with his puppet Manchukuo army.
As a military officer with a military rank of no more than a military police captain, Koji Inukai received a telegram directly from the Kwantung Army Military Police Headquarters for the first time early this morning. Although the telegram only stated that a group of bandits wearing imperial army uniforms had flown to the Harbin area, demanding that all places
Cooperating with the Harbin garrison in the cleanup. However, Inukai Koji still relied on his sensitive sense of smell, which he had developed through his years of military service, to smell something wrong.
Acheng Gendarmerie has always been commanded by the Harbin Gendarmerie, and there has never been a time when the Kwantung Army Command directly issued an order. But this time the order was actually issued directly by the Kwantung Army Military Police Command, which made Koji Inukai feel sensitively.
The meaning is definitely not as simple as what was stated in the telegram.
Because he clearly knew that even if he were to leapfrog the command, the dignified Kwantung Army Military Police Headquarters would never leapfrog his rank to a small captain like him. In the highly hierarchical Japanese army, this was almost unimaginable. This time it was unprecedented.
The exception must be something very important that must not be leaked.
Isn't it true that Inukai Koji really had the ability to cross dozens of kilometers and know what happened in Harbin in Acheng? He had this hunch because the telegram clearly stated that once these thugs were captured, they would be executed on the spot without trial.
For the military police, which specializes in suppressing the anti-Manchurian resistance and has always attached great importance to oral confessions in order to obtain more intelligence, this is the first time such a telegram has been sent. The high level of the telegram and the unusual content made Koji Inukai feel
As long as he can excel in this suppressive operation, he will be able to enter the eyes of the senior officials of the Military Police Headquarters, and his official career will come.
I originally thought that I was just a supporting role in this operation of finding a needle in a haystack, but I didn't expect that Inukai Koji, who had won the jackpot, would have any scruples, so he immediately put all the troops at hand into the attack. And he even personally attacked
With the military police behind him to supervise the formation, he did not care that he was within the opponent's rifle range.
When he received the report that a large number of puppet Manchukuo troops had been discovered, Yang Zhen couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart. Attacked from both front and back, and there were no one knows how many Japanese troops were coming around him? The worst outcome that he had originally expected had appeared.
Yang Zhen, who rushed to the front, briefly asked Guo Bingxun, who was commanding the troops to build simple fortifications in preparation for resisting the attack of the puppet Manchukuo army in front, to briefly understand the situation, and then raised his three pairs of German telescopes that he had found from Shiro Ishii's office.
After carefully observing the situation, the first officer said directly to Guo Bingxun: "The Japanese and puppet troops here are very arrogant. When they came up, they concentrated their forces on the entire front. It seems that they want to annihilate us all in one go."
Guo Bingxun, who was also holding a telescope to observe the enemy's situation, shook his head when he heard this: "Old Yang, except for a small number of pseudo policemen, most of them are mainly puppet soldiers. There are only a few ghosts, only about thirty. But these puppets
The combat effectiveness of the Japanese Army is very strong, even in Japan, it is considered average. You see, they use standard Japanese combat formations. Although it was just a brief exchange of fire, in terms of shooting skills, they are even better than the Central Army.
.”
"Damn it, I just can't understand why these puppet soldiers are so determined to serve the Japanese. You see, when they charge, they almost die. I heard that during the Battle of Songhu last year, there were many puppet soldiers.
I didn’t believe it when the Manchu army participated in the war. But now looking at the posture of these puppet troops, I finally believe it. They are all Chinese, have they really forgotten who their ancestors are?"
"However, they have concentrated their main force on the front, and their suppressive firepower only has two machine guns. This does give us a chance. If we detour them from the flanks, and before their main force comes over, we should still have a chance.
Opportunity."
Regarding Guo Bingxun's idea, Yang Zhen, who put down the telescope, shook his head and said: "No, Lao Guo, this is a plain with almost an unobstructed view. We can't conduct small-scale roundabout operations at all. Rounding off his flanks can only weaken our already limited resources."
capital."
"But if a large-scale roundabout is adopted, you have also seen the cooperative combat capabilities of our brothers, and the organization is temporarily formed. Once a large-scale roundabout is adopted, you may be separated from the organization. The most critical time is
It’s not enough. This place is too close to Acheng and Wuchang, and the main force of the Japs can pounce at any time."
"Once the Japanese encirclement is formed, we don't even have the capital to disperse and break out. We are not familiar with the place here, so spreading out and breaking out can only lead to death. The only solution for now is to concentrate all our forces and firepower to open the gap from the front.
Rush over."
Having said this, Yang Zhen pointed to the standard Japanese-style skirmisher line and said to the Puppet Manchukuo troops pressing over from his side: "Look, these Puppet Manchukuo troops are very arrogant and don't take us seriously at all.
"
"Although they formed a skirmish line when they charged, the distance was very narrow. We had more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns, so we concentrated our firepower on him. At the same time, we deployed some veterans with good marksmanship to suppress his two machine guns.
.I think I should have some confidence."
Guo Bingxun pondered for a moment, briefly analyzed the situation between us and the enemy, and stopped arguing: "Okay, Lao Yang, I will do as you say. We will focus all our firepower on the front, suppress them, and then launch a charge.
.I don’t believe it. We can’t defeat the Japanese with our bayonets, but we can’t defeat these dogs?”
"No, Lao Guo must not fight hard with them. Here, every one of our brothers is the best, and their lives are precious. They cannot be left here. Even if there are half casualties, even if we can rush out, it will not matter.
That makes sense."
"Tell the brothers that these puppet Manchu troops are only allowed to fight back with rifles if they are within fifty meters of each other. All machine guns will fire in unison until they are within fifty meters of each other. Lao Guo, please go and arrange it yourself and arrange all the machine guns for crossfire.
"
"I just took a look and found that these Japanese and puppet troops did not carry heavy weapons. The terrain here is so open, I don't believe that these Japanese and puppet troops can escape our fire net composed of more than a dozen machine guns?"
"I also tell the brothers, don't be stingy with ammunition. Even if all the ammunition is used up, as long as the people are there, we will have a way. If the weapons are gone, we can still seize them, but if the brothers' lives are gone, they will never be found again.
came back."
After Guo Bingxun went down to make arrangements, Huang Dali, who had been following Yang Zhen since the encounter with the puppet Manchukuo troops, pointed to a man in civilian clothes standing next to the Japanese army behind the puppet Manchu troops in front of him. He was nodding and bowing to a Japanese officer.
The person who knew what to say gritted his teeth and said: "Captain Yang, the person who is talking to the Japanese officer is the person I asked about his situation this morning."
"I didn't expect that this bastard would actually tell the truth and betray his compatriots to the Japanese. Why are there so many traitors here? Give me a few people and I'll go and tell the informant."
Kill the bastard."
Looking at Huang Dali, who was very angry because he was betrayed by his compatriots, Yang Zhen said in a cold tone: "You didn't think of it? It's normal if others didn't think of it, but as an old scout, you still experienced the Long March.
Veteran, didn't you think of this? Don't tell me you didn't encounter this kind of situation during the Long March?"
"Although I have never met your Commander Xu, I have admired him for a long time and he is a brave general of our army. I never expected that his men would have soldiers like you, who are also scouts.
Don't you know how to use your brain when fighting? Fortunately, you are still a veteran."
"Commander Xu Army, if you are as reckless as you are, can you lead a lone army from Hubei, Henan, and Anhui to break through the blockade and blockade of hundreds of thousands of heavy troops, and then reach northern Shaanxi after a thousand-mile long march? How can you still do it under such dangerous circumstances?
Our army can retain a main force of the Red Army? Your behavior today really embarrasses your Commander Xu." Yang Zhen said these words very seriously.
As a veteran, Huang Dali, who valued the collective honor more than his own life, couldn't help but blush when he heard Yang Zhen's words: "Captain Yang, what I did was wrong today and my decision was too hasty. You can criticize me."
I can accept it if you look down on me. But you can't look down on our 25th Red Army, or our Commander Xu."
"Although our numbers are incomparable to those of the big brother front armies and our equipment is inferior, we have never been afraid of any enemy. During the counter-encirclement and suppression campaigns and the Long March, we were never afraid of the Kuomintang's Central Army, Northwest Army, and Shaanxi Army.
Nowadays, I have never been afraid of dealing with the Japanese. Every soldier of our 25th Red Army is good. I bear my responsibility, but Captain Yang, you cannot involve us in the 25th Red Army."
"Company Commander Yang, I know I didn't do a good job and I have embarrassed the old troops and the old leader. But I ask you to give me another chance. If I don't do it right again, you will shoot me."
Looking at Huang Dali, who looked aggrieved when he heard about their old leader, Yang Zhen secretly smiled in his heart. In later generations, he admired those founding generals who had experienced hundreds of battles, how dare he look down on someone who served the Republic
The founding general who established many military exploits.
What he said was just to stimulate this kid, so that he would always be careless and take the task as a joke. If this kid hadn't been careless, he would have paid some price. After all, the Japanese and puppet troops had already withdrawn themselves into the mountains.
The road to the Ashe River is blocked, but it will never be so passive.
Believing that it is better to dispatch a general than to inspire him, Yang Zhen, who was waiting for his words, nodded without even thinking about his request: "Okay, since you said so, I will give you one last chance. You see,
The main force of the puppet army is almost concentrated here. There may not be many people left along the Ash River. And they have pressed all the main force to the front. There should be a gap on the flank for you to rush through. "
"Take your men and go kill the people they left on the river bank and look for the ferry. As long as we rush over, we can cross the river immediately. Remember, this is the last chance for you. If you make mistakes,
You can figure it out yourself."
