After Yang Zhen listened to Guo Bingxun's words, he nodded and said: "The one who knows me is Lao Guo. [.Com/Text Lao Guo, whether this battle is fought well or not will not only determine our next destiny development. It will also determine our success."
Can we, a nation that has suffered so much, completely wash away the shame of the Nanjing War? Can the hundreds of thousands of Nanjing compatriots who died tragically under the Japanese bayonets truly die in peace in peace?"
"With the Ninth Division, the Fifty-first Division, and the former Sixth Division, we must win this battle no matter what. And we must completely eliminate these two men who committed heinous crimes in Nanjing.
The Japanese divisions wanted to avenge the shame of Nanjing and fully avenge the hundreds of thousands of our compatriots who died unjustly in Nanjing."
"Lao Guo, please ask the political subordinates of the Fourth Column to issue a document. The actual significance of this battle must be clearly explained to the cadres and soldiers below. Tell them whether the hundreds of thousands of compatriots in Nanjing can truly rest in peace depends on their actions.
How could the First World War be fought?"
Speaking of Tao Jingfei's troops who were fighting a fierce battle with the 51st Division, Guo Bingxun hesitated for a moment and then said: "No. 1, although Tao Jingfei's fourth column now has four brigades, in addition to leaving two regiments in Harbin as reserves,
In addition to the troops and the garrison, a regiment from the 2nd Independent Brigade attached to the 5th Brigade is in Shuangcheng. In fact, he only has six regiments of troops on hand. Isn’t that a little small?”
"You must know that the Japanese army in Qiqihar is not only a 51st Division, but also an independent fourth garrison and some other attached troops. There are also five infantry brigades and two cavalry brigades in the third military area of the Puppet Manchu Army.
.Not counting the Japanese troops, the number of puppet Manchu troops alone reached more than 14,000."
"The current position of the fourth column plays a connecting role in the entire war situation. It has to face pressure from two aspects at the same time, which I think is a bit too great. In this way, I think a brigade can be transferred from Wang Xiaoming's side, and then from Liu Changshun's side
After passing one brigade, we took over the defense of Harbin from the fourth column. Since we are organizing troops, there is not much difference between Harbin and Jiamusi."
"In this way, Tao Jingfei can increase the strength of at least two regiments. The number of troops on hand that can be used for maneuvering and maneuvering will be greatly increased. The certainty of dealing with the 51st Division will be greater. Tao Jingfei's unit is now
The position he is in is more important, so it is better to be more secure."
Regarding Guo Bingxun's idea of increasing Tao Jingfei's troops, Yang Zhen thought about it and finally shook his head and said: "There is no need to transfer troops from Wang Xiaoming. We can transfer a brigade from Liu Changshun. However, although this brigade is transferred to Harbin, it will not be replaced.
The troops who came down will stay in Harbin as the general reserve team."
"Lao Guo, judging from the current battle situation, Tao Jingfei does not need to increase his troops for the time being. Although they are using six regiments to deal with one 51st Division, the 51st Division is not dispatched in its entirety.
.The only ones fighting with them in Anda are the 102nd and 115th Regiments and the 4th Independent Garrison, while the 66th Regiment of the 51st Division has always stayed in Qiqihar."
"In terms of military strength, Tao Jingfei still has a one to three advantage. Moreover, most of the armored brigade and cavalry brigade have been allocated to him. In other words, our advantage is not only in terms of military strength, but also in equipment.
.Except for Nenjiang County in the north, most of Longjiang Province is a vast plain. Under this kind of terrain, assigning armored brigades to them is much more useful than adding one or two regiments of reinforcements to them."
"As for these two regiments, they are placed south of Harbin. They must be prepared to reinforce the Shuangcheng area at any time. Compared with Tao Jingfei's area, the Shuangcheng area may not be as important as the Western Front on the surface, but it is actually at the most critical part of the entire battlefield.
.With the loss of the twin cities, Harbin has lost its most important barrier."
"If Harbin is also lost, the connection between the first column and the fourth column will inevitably be severed. The two columns, especially the first column on the northern line, are likely to face the danger of the Japanese army attacking from both sides. Once this situation occurs,
.Then the campaign we launched becomes a buckle for ourselves."
"I think Liu Changshun can transfer four regiments. In addition to using one brigade to take over Harbin's garrison duties, the other regiment will be temporarily formed into a brigade with the two regiments left by the Fourth Column as the general reserve. Let's deploy
At the station, once there is danger in the twin cities or in other areas, you can immediately take the train for reinforcements."
"But this regiment needs to be carefully selected. The troops at Liu Changshun's place are all newly formed troops, and most of the troops have not yet formed their combat effectiveness. The brigade left in Harbin does not matter, but the regiment that is incorporated into the reserve team must be
Select carefully and select the regiment with the strongest combat effectiveness."
Having said this, Yang Zhen hesitated slightly and said: "As for the Puppet Manchukuo Army, I have been a little neglectful. However, not only are all the troops in the Puppet Manchukuo Third Military District stationed in Qiqihar, most of them are still in Heihe. This
Most of the pressure on the seven brigades is borne by Wang Guangyu. The pressure on Tao Jingfei is not very great."
"Judging from the intelligence we received, the Japanese army only deployed two infantry brigades, the 21st and 23rd Brigade, and the Third Military Area Training Team in Qiqihar. The total number of troops is less than 5,000. These people are very important to Qiqihar.
There may be some pressure on Tao Jingfei, but it won't be too much."
"But you are right. Regardless of their combat effectiveness, these puppet Manchukuo troops will serve the Japanese army wholeheartedly, but they are still an opponent that we cannot ignore too much. In this way, we will allocate one regiment to strengthen Tao Jingfei, and the remaining two
This regiment cannot be used as the general reserve. In addition, the Political Department of the Fourth Column is asked to find a way to identify some of the prisoners of the 23rd Brigade of the Puppet Manchu Army as soon as possible and give priority to Tao Jingfei.
Regarding Yang Zhen's suggestion, Guo Bingxun thought about it and finally nodded, and immediately drafted several orders. He sent a transport plane to Yilan to pick up Ma Qichang who was there. At the same time, he issued an order to Liu Changshun. Let him
Four regiments were immediately dispatched from the newly formed brigades and rushed to Harbin.
Before these orders were sent out, Tao Jingfei's battle report came first. After receiving Tao Jingfei's report, Yang Zhen read it carefully and nodded with satisfaction. He had not misjudged the person. It had only been two days.
Within a short period of time, with the cooperation of the armored brigade and the cavalry brigade, the 115th Regiment of the 51st Division and the fourth independent garrison attached to the 115th Regiment were completely wiped out.
Now the main force of the four columns chasing the defeated 115th Regiment has entered the territory of Taikang and Lindian. At present, except for leaving two regiments to fight fiercely with the 102nd Regiment of the 51st Division in the northwest of Taikang County, Tao Jingfei has concentrated the main force
With the cooperation of the four battalions of the armored brigade and the main force of the cavalry brigade, they are advancing with all their strength to attack Qiqihar along the Binzhou Railway.
Putting down the telegram in his hand, Yang Zhen pondered for a moment. It seemed that it was a right choice for him to transfer the main armor and cavalry to Tao Jingfei. The terrain of Pseudo-Longjiang Province is flat. Except for the Daxinganling Mountains in the north, most of the territory is
Grassland. This kind of terrain is very suitable for large-scale mechanized troops and cavalry operations.
Judging from Tao Jingfei's telegram, the Japanese 115th Regiment and the attached Fourth Independent Garrison Brigade were almost completely overwhelmed by the armored brigade before being separated by the infantry commanded by Tao Jingfei who caught up later.
Eat it one bite at a time. If the armored brigade had not participated in the battle, Tao Jingfei would not have been able to deal with the 115 Regiment so quickly even if he had the strength advantage.
What surprised Yang Zhen was that in the following interspersed battles, Tao Jingfei encountered the greatest resistance. In addition to the 102nd Regiment in Taikang, it was the Xing'an Army mainly composed of Mongolians. And with
Compared with the 102nd Regiment, which was all infantry, the Xing'an Army, which was all composed of Mongolians and all cavalry, and some of the cavalry in the Puppet Manchukuo Third Military District became the most difficult opponents.
In particular, the two cavalry regiments of the Xing'an Army that the Japanese army urgently transferred from the so-called Tenth Military District stationed in Hailar, although they have not caused too much losses to Tao Jingfei, they have also caused a lot of trouble. These puppet troops are skillfully used.
His riding skills and horse-mounted shooting tactics, and his use of his familiarity with the terrain to adopt harassing tactics, caused great trouble to the troops on the Western Front.
The logistics supply convoy responsible for the entire Western Front operation was attacked several times. More than a dozen trucks were burned, and the losses of ammunition and supplies were considerable. Especially the oil used by the armored brigade suffered a great loss. Moreover, the troops escorting the supplies were fighting against these cavalry.
At that time, the casualties were not light.
Regarding Tao Jingfei's request for instructions to mobilize part of the armored brigade's 7TP light tanks and two cavalry battalions to form a rapid detachment specifically to eliminate these cavalry, Yang Zhen thought about it and handed the request report to Guo Bingxun and said: "Old Guo,
What do you think?"
After reading the telegram carefully, Guo Bingxun pondered for a long time before saying: "In this way, all of Yu Wenze's cavalry brigade will be drawn out, and a company of light tanks will be deployed to specifically eliminate these pseudo-cavalry. Compared with the Puppet Manchukuo Third Army
Regarding the Sixth Cavalry Brigade in the area, I feel that we should pay more attention to the two cavalry regiments of the Hung Yen Army."
"The Mongols are a horseback nation and have grown up on horses since childhood. And many places in this area are inhabited by Mongolians. They are not only familiar with the terrain, but most importantly, they also have certain people and advantages.
Once we fail to destroy it as soon as possible, it will always be a threat to the fourth column. Especially for logistical supplies, the threat is quite great."
"The cavalry is highly mobile and has far less requirements for terrain and transportation than armored forces. I think it is better to put all Yu Wenze's cavalry into it. In addition, a flying squadron is being deployed to assist them in the encirclement and suppression. As long as this so-called Xing'an is defeated,
Army, it doesn’t matter.”
"Compared with the Puppet Manchu Army, which has rebelled several times, it is obvious that the Japanese army now trusts the Xing'an Army, which was formed entirely by Mongolians. And although the combat effectiveness of this Xing'an Army cannot be said to be stronger than that of the general Puppet Manchukuo, as a
Born as a people on horseback, these people's use of cavalry tactics is incomparable to the general puppet Manchukuo army."
"Although this Xing'an Army may not be absolutely devoted to the Japanese army, these Mongolians are also naturally hostile to us, who are mainly Han people. A large number of their so-called senior personnel have participated in the so-called uprising
** movement. Therefore, we must pay certain attention to this Hung Yen Army and treat them differently from other puppet armies."
