The Fujun Temple in the north of Jinghai City is full of people, and the heavily armed guards and soldiers of the 53rd Army can be seen everywhere. Since 8 o'clock in the morning, full martial law has been imposed here. With the completion of the clearance work, the 53rd Army Engineer Battalion was in the temple
The two-meter high platform built overnight was also successfully completed. With Fujun Temple as the center, the warning area was quickly expanded to the surrounding one square kilometer, and no one was allowed to enter this area at will.
At nine o'clock in the morning, reporters from major newspapers across the country stationed in North China who received An Yi's invitation rushed to Jinghai. After identity verification and security inspection, they were sent to Fujun Temple by special car.
By 9:30, the rows of wooden benches placed in front of the high platform were already filled with reporters.
Most of the reporters attending the meeting were acquaintances. After greeting them warmly, they looked around at the wide dam and then looked at the six large pillars erected in front of the high platform. They asked in a low voice what they were used for? But no one could answer, so various
Discussions followed one after another, and I was a little more looking forward to today's conference.
At 9:40, eight new regiments, adapted from the original 18,000-strong Northern Hebei Army, took the lead in entering the scene under the leadership of their respective commanders. The reporters saw groups of unarmed officers and soldiers lining up behind the press area, and soon
The empty dam was filled up, and I couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Following the new regiments into the venue were the officers and soldiers of four regiments of the 53rd Army and the 40th Army. They were actually tasked with guarding and monitoring the new recruits in front of them to guard against riots or even massacres during the conference. Therefore,
They were all loaded with guns, unsmiling, and looked murderous.
At nine fifty-five, An Yi, Shang Zhen, Wan Fulin, and Pang Bingxun, all dressed in official general uniforms, walked onto the high platform together. The reporters saw three generals and one lieutenant general gathered here.
I immediately knew that something big was going to happen next, and I immediately lifted my spirits.
Soon, the tied-up Shi Yousan, Cheng Xixian and six other people came to the high platform under the escort of twelve military police in twos.
The conference did not set up an additional host. An Yi walked directly to the loudspeaker in the center of the high platform and directly recounted the scenes that happened before and after the Wanping War from July 30th to 31st, focusing on the riverside brigade.
The sneak attack on Nanyuan in Peiping led to the sacrifice of Tong Linge, deputy commander of the 29th Army, and Zhao Dengyu, commander of the 132nd Division, and when the riverside brigade was surrounded by the Japanese Division and the 77th Army in Wanping City.
*** against innocent civilians.
An Yi became more and more excited. When he talked about the great sacrifice of the Japanese army to finally break through Wanping City, he was impassioned. However, the final result was that the remnants of the riverside brigade were indulged in secret by the three friends. His tone was heavy and extremely hateful.
Finally, An Yi asked loudly into the microphone:
"A division-level unit with an establishment of 18,000 men, a battalion of 36 cannons, and a complete range of light and heavy weapons, faced with more than a thousand Japanese invaders who were exhausted, had lost a lot of light and heavy firepower, and were about to run out of ammunition, would not fight.
What kind of serious dereliction of duty is this?
"What is especially suspicious is that the Japanese army, chased by the officers and soldiers of our *** Division Model Battalion, mysteriously found a pontoon bridge built on the Yongding River by the Third Division of Friends during daily training, and then miraculously escaped. Is this just luck?
At least I, An Yi, don’t believe it!
"Fortunately, Skynet has not leaked anything. After a group of criminals were brought to justice last night, after our overnight interrogation, they themselves confessed the secrets. It turned out that the leader of the thieves, Shi Yousan, was actually ordered by the commander of the Japanese garrison, Xiang Yue Qingji, to commit this crime.
Release the Japanese invaders... When the truth is revealed, how can we comfort the innocent people who died tragically at the hands of the riverside brigade and the anti-Japanese warriors who sacrificed their lives heroically without killing such a traitor?"
The crowd in the audience was furious. Even the 18,000 soldiers of the Northern Hebei Army were deeply shocked and began to reflect on their past.
An Yi looked around the audience and asked, "Tell me, should such a scum be killed?"
"Deserves to be killed!"
"Deserves to be killed!"
"Deserves to be killed!"
The soldiers of the 53rd Army and the 44th Army were the first to raise their arms and shout, and then the reporters in front couldn't help but shout loudly. The original 18,000 officers and soldiers of the Northern Hebei Army hesitated for a moment, and then they also shouted, and their voices were louder.
It was getting louder and louder. At this moment, they felt as if they had been reborn.
An Yi turned to the group of prisoners and asked loudly: "Shiyousan, do you plead guilty?"
Shi Yousan glanced at An Yi bitterly and gritted his teeth: "I don't plead guilty, and I didn't openly treason and become a traitor... I just want to preserve my strength and make my life better. Is this wrong?
"
An Yi sneered, didn't talk nonsense with him, and asked the next one: "Cheng Xixian, do you plead guilty?"
Cheng Xixian roared loudly: "Child An Yi, you have no right to judge us. We want to see Chairman Chiang. We are unjust..."
An Yi then asked the remaining four people. These four people were very straightforward, but they repeatedly defended that everything was under the command of the third friend, and that they were just executing the orders of their superiors, and they would not be punished with death.
An Yi turned back: "We can only have zero tolerance for traitors who seek glory in the Communist Party and those who are incompetent in the war. Otherwise, the army will have no fighting spirit and the country will be ruined! Now I pronounce the sentence: all six criminals will be sentenced to death and will be executed immediately!
"
Shi Yousan and Cheng Xixian shouted "Unjust", while the other four generals cried bitterly, hoping to give themselves another chance to change their ways, even if they were sent to the front line to fight the Japanese now.
At this time, six soldiers carefully selected from the 53rd Army walked up to the high platform with bright swords in their hands. The three friends and six others were quickly escorted to the stage and knelt down.
At this time, Shi Yousan and Cheng Xixian were still struggling hard, but these military policemen were all Northeastern men with great strength, and their faces were red from holding back.
"cut!"
A flash of sword light flashed, six heads flew away from the body in the flash of spotlights, and fell under the high platform. The blood arrows spurted from the necks shot out three to four meters away, frightening many reporters who were shooting at close range and lost their voices.
Phew. Among the six heads, only the third one is the most ferocious and terrifying. The face is distorted and the eyes are wide open. It is full of unwillingness and chills people's hearts.
The huge dam was silent at first, and then there were loud cheers and warm applause.
"Actually, I don't want to kill people. This feeling is not good, because their families may hate me forever. However, I have to kill people. If we do not stop treason and allow it to spread, then our country and nation will
, there will be big trouble. Think about it, if a strategy carefully planned by our army was originally guaranteed to win, but because of the traitor's betrayal, the enemy learned about it in advance, then not only would we gain nothing, but we might even fall into the enemy's trap and lose our troops.
If you don't say it, it may even lead to the collapse of the whole situation!
"The excuses given by traitors are various, but the essence is the same, which is to sacrifice the interests of the country and the nation in exchange for personal glory and wealth. There is only one word for such people: kill!"
After An Yi finished speaking, he solemnly saluted the audience with a military salute, and the audience once again burst into warm applause.
At this time, six heads had been hung on the pillars, warning people of the shameful consequences of being traitors.
...
At one o'clock at noon, along the northern line of Wuqing City, with the crisp sound of the artillery shells being withdrawn and falling to the ground, an overwhelming scream suddenly came. After the first explosion at the top of the city, Wuqing City suddenly felt like it was boiling.
It was like water dripping into the oil, causing the pot to burst into flames.
The artillery unit of the 40th Division of the Fifth Army concentrated 16 heavy artillery and 32 mountain artillery, and poured hundreds of artillery shells into Wuqing City, destroying the 27th Japanese Army confirmed by the division's Special Forces Brigade after several days of reconnaissance.
**The mixed brigade headquarters was formed, and the light and heavy firepower points and bunkers distributed at the top of the city and throughout the city were removed one by one.
The Japanese army's tactical literacy and fighting will are indeed excellent. After withstanding five minutes of artillery fire, the Japanese artillery regiment quickly removed the camouflage on the large-caliber field artillery, facing the threat of artillery shells whizzing past their heads, and attacked the Forty Division's
The artillery fire began to retaliate. Soon, the artillery position of the 40th Division on the front line of Wangnan Palace was covered by Japanese artillery fire. The fire was soaring into the sky and the smoke was filled. If it were not for anticipating the Japanese counterattack, the distance between the cannons would have been widened.
After this wave of shelling, the Anjiajun artillery will suffer huge losses.
Fortunately, the Japanese artillery did not last long. There was a "buzzing" sound in the sky, and more than twenty Chinese fighter planes were seen flying over Wuqing City like locusts, throwing strings of bombs under their wings, exposing the Japanese army.
Scarlet fireballs suddenly rose up from the artillery position. Under the impact of the violent air waves, the Japanese artillerymen were scattered with blood and flesh, leaving no bones left. More than twenty large-caliber field guns suddenly went silent.
Hearing that the enemy's artillery fire was no longer heard, the soldiers of the 40th Division rushed out from the underground artillery holes and quickly filled the forward positions. As the mortars of each department took up their positions, the loud charge horn sounded.
The soldiers jumped out of the trenches and rushed towards Wuqing City under the leadership of the battle flag.
Soon, the Japanese invaders, who had escaped artillery fire and aerial fighter attacks, emerged from various places on the city walls, raised their rifles, set up light and heavy machine guns, and opened fire on the squadrons that were pouring in like a tide below the city.
At this time, the mortars that had been ready began to pour bombs on the Japanese firepower points. At the same time, the modified direct-fire mortars that followed the troops' charge also exerted great power. The hidden bunkers in the gaps in the city wall were removed one by one. The enemy painstakingly
The operating fortifications soon reached the brink of collapse.
Chinese Air Force fighter planes were still circling in the sky. As soon as the Japanese troops in the city gathered to support the front, fighter planes and bombers rushed over, either swooping and strafing, or flying bombs, instantly defeating the Japanese troops. At the same time, those city walls
The Japanese officers and soldiers who were in the blind spot of the shelling also became the key target of the fighter planes. When a bomb fell, almost a corner of the city wall collapsed. One can imagine what would happen to the flesh and blood Japanese soldiers. The west and north sides of Wuqing City
The city wall was almost stained red with blood.
What made the Japanese army particularly depressed was that the grenade they had popularized in squads and detachments was ineffective at all. Just as the grenadiers squatted down to correct their position, the fighter planes in the sky couldn't wait to pounce down, two in a group.
The Japanese soldiers instantly turned into fluffy corpses covered with blood holes.
As the firepower from the city head was cleared, the west and north city gates of Wuqing City were successfully blasted. The soldiers of the Forty Division rushed into the city with shouts and started fighting for every street with the Japanese army.
Although the individual soldiers of the Japanese army were excellent, their exquisite marksmanship and bayonet fighting skills were unable to be used when encountering the powerful close combat firepower of the Anjia army, and they soon fell apart.
The remaining Japanese officers and soldiers, led by their brigade commander Shozo Okazaki, retreated in embarrassment toward Tianjin.
The whole battle lasted an hour, and Wu Qing was recovered.
