Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

Moreover, according to the information collected from the special high school, the Fu Zuoyi Department, which had confronted the Zhangjiakou garrison earlier, has now entered the Baoding area.This means that the number of troops deployed by the Eighth Route Army in the Zhangjiakou area may not be too many.

Thinking of this, Umezai Jimiro finally nodded and said: "Send a power to the Zhangjiakou garrison commander and let him prepare to abandon the city and break through. At that time, his department will directly contact the North China Front Army and be under the control of the North China Front Army for the time being."

Even among the senior generals of the Japanese army, there will also be competition or hostility.But when it comes to major interests and issues, Umezai Jimiro is also very calm.Most importantly, he is beyond reach for Zhangjiakou's troops.

Since Neiji Okamura personally sent a telegram, hoping to ask for this main force, then he couldn't deny it.If the North China Front Army can reverse the current unfavorable situation, it will actually be very beneficial to them.

Once North China really falls, their entire plan to invade China will be severely damaged.Even the Northeast region, which they have occupied for many years, will become turbulent because of this.Therefore, at this time, they should also work together for a while!

In fact, there was another reason why Umezai Jimiro agreed to Okamura Ningji's temporary secondment of the Zhangjiakou troops.That was the siege during this period. The Japanese and puppet troops stationed in Zhangjiakou were also a little unstable.

From the Eighth Route Army's offensive to the current invasion of the Chengde area, the Japanese troops stationed in Zhangjiakou can be said to have made Zhangjiakou unbreakable.But the problem is that the fortifications they built at a huge cost did not play any role at all.

Whether it was the Third Infantry Division earlier or the 35th Army that came later, they did not launch a large-scale attack on Zhangjiakou at all.Except for a few tentative shells, no real siege battle was launched at all.

As a result, the Japanese and puppet troops in the city were undoubtedly very depressed.This is like cooking a large table of good dishes, waiting for guests to taste them with joy.As a result, the guest who promised to come unexpectedly broke the appointment to release the pigeons, and all the hard work was naturally in vain.

Originally, after the 35th Army marched to Baoding, the Japanese army in Zhangjiakou also sent some reconnaissance troops to test the deployment of the Eighth Route Army's troops outside the city.But every time, these reconnaissance troops will pay a certain price.

In the end, the Japanese garrison officers stationed in Zhangjiakou also realized that the Eighth Route Army had also deployed blocking troops near Zhangjiakou.Unless they choose to break out collectively, it may be quite difficult for a small group to infiltrate or fight back.

In the eyes of many Japanese troops, the risky reconnaissance mission out of the city has become an errand that many Japanese troops are vying for.Even if many Japanese soldiers know that they may not come back if they go out to the city for reconnaissance.

But for many Japanese soldiers, they really couldn't bear to stay in the city and bask in the sun every day.During the period of Zhangjiakou's siege, the people who used to live in the city basically ran away.

Except for some officials and family members of the puppet Mongolian government and the family members of some troops of the puppet Mongolian army, there are basically no ordinary people living in the city.As time goes by, the little devil who has been holding back for a long time also starts to trouble these people.

Seeing the little devils coming to trouble him and even his family members every day, the puppet Mongolian army in the city naturally complained.As the head of the puppet Mongolian government, King De also knew that his situation was not as good as before.

In response to this situation, he could only persuade his subordinates: "Be patient! Who said that our situation is inferior to others?"

'Can't bear it!These little devils are going too far!Some time ago, the family members of many of our officers and soldiers were harmed by them.We worked so hard for the little devil, and in the end we couldn't even protect our own family, so why should we be soldiers or officials? '

Following some resentful puppet Mongolian troops, they finally staged an uprising in the city.Even if it was finally suppressed by the Japanese army in the city, this also made the relationship between the puppet Mongolian army and the Japanese army in the city completely antagonistic.

Knowing that this was the reason for staying in the city for too long, the garrison officer of the Japanese army also suggested to Umezai Jimiro, hoping that the headquarters could give him tactical guidance.Continue to hold on, I'm afraid the troops in the city will be in chaos sooner or later.

It is precisely because of these considerations that after receiving a telegram from Neiji Okamura, Jimiro Umezai also made a personal favor along the way.On the other hand, the Zhangjiakou garrison officer who received the telegram also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

As a supervisor dispatched to the puppet Mongolian government, even if he knew that his subordinates would make trouble like this, it would not be good.But right now, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, even if he knew that his subordinates had gone too far, he could only turn a blind eye.

After all, the Eighth Route Army in Chengde and Chifeng has already been beaten, and almost all the territory under the jurisdiction of the puppet Mongolian government has been recovered.In this way, these puppet government officials who support them are of little use.

It's just that these pseudo-Mongolian princes still have a lot to do with the puppet Manchukuo today.It's not easy to kill this garrison officer.But for the puppet Mongolian army who dared to resist, they naturally would not pity and resolutely suppress them.

In order to ensure the smooth breakout plan, the garrison officer specially recruited his direct subordinates and read out the command of the headquarters.Soon the regiment leader said: "General, break out in the direction of Beiping, is there no troops to respond?"

'No!However, as long as we can break through to the vicinity of Peiping, the North China Front Army will send troops to respond.In addition, when we break out, the air force will also provide air support.

In order to ensure a successful breakout, I decided to implement a nighttime breakout.In the past two days, you have mobilized some elite subordinates and brought more dry food.After leaving the city, don't go back to the city for the time being, and distract the attention of the Eighth Route Army outside the city.

As for the Royal Association Army troops in the city, we don't need to pay attention to it.Except for a few important personnel who broke through with our main force, the rest of the Imperial Association Army stood firm in the city.Hope you can delay us a little longer! '

But after the garrison officer’s words were spoken, he quickly said again: “General, under the current circumstances, it’s probably impossible to count on these imperial association troops to defend the city! What happened earlier has already given them some The heart of resistance."

'No problem!Regardless of whether they defend or not, we must all withdraw from the city.Originally, I also considered whether to keep some troops to continue to stand firm.But I think it won't work if there are fewer troops.

If they choose to abandon the city and surrender to the Eighth Route Army.I believe that those eight ways will not give them good fruit to eat.Even if we leave, I believe they will also choose to escape from the city.

In this way, they can also distract some of the eight roads for us.I believe you all should be aware that some of the officers of the Imperial Association Army in the city are also on the list of not enjoying the treatment of prisoners according to the policy of the Eighth Route Army.

Those officers of the Imperial Association Army wanted to survive, so they had no choice but to fight back desperately.At worst, they will also lead these troops to become bandits.In short, I believe it is good for us to keep these. '

As soon as these considerations came out, the rest of the Japanese officers thought about it, and it seemed that the same was true.After all, most of the officers of the puppet Mongolian army who are eligible to stay in Zhangjiakou are their hardcore traitors.

If he didn't feel that taking them with him might slow down the marching speed of the troops, the garrison officer would have considered taking them to break out of the siege together.But in the end he still felt that their breakout operation had to be sudden and fast.

If you bring these imperial association troops together to break through, it is very likely to drag down your own troops.After comprehensive consideration, he still decided to let these imperial association troops choose by themselves, whether they live or die depends on their luck! (To be continued.)

Chapter 97 Find a way to survive!

As the base camp of the puppet Mongolian army, the number of puppet Mongolian troops stationed in Zhangjiakou is undoubtedly much larger than other places.But since the commander-in-chief of the Puppet Mongolian Army was executed by the Eighth Route Army, the role of the Puppet Mongolian Army in the hearts of the Japanese army has plummeted.

Even the puppet Mongolian army in Zhangjiakou still has a so-called King De to rely on.But in fact, everyone knows that the elite of the Puppet Mongolian Army is basically in the hands of Li Shouxin, the commander-in-chief of the Puppet Mongolian Army.

It is a pity that when this elite team followed Li Shouxin out of the city to reinforce the Xilindunle League, they were completely wiped out by the third infantry division under He Zhengdao's command.Even in the end, Li Shouxin would also be executed by the Eighth Route Army in a public trial.

It can be said that the spread of the news of Li Shouxin's execution dealt a huge blow to the puppet Mongolian army.What made the puppet Mongolian army panic even more was that the Eighth Route Army did not take the opportunity to agree to Li Shouxin's so-called "anyway".

As a well-known speculator in the Republic of China, Li Shouxin was promoted from an ordinary soldier to the commander-in-chief of the Puppet Mongolian Army, which was valued by the Kwantung Army. It was nothing more than speculation, relying on the troops at hand to find backers everywhere.

But the problem is that this trick doesn't seem to work in the Eighth Route Army.Perhaps in the eyes of many people, if Li Shouxin can be successfully instigated, perhaps for the Eighth Route Army, there is also a chance to recruit the puppet Mongolian army with good combat effectiveness.

In response to this different opinion, He Zhengdao, who decided to execute Li Shouxin in a public trial at the time, also said very coldly: "In the opinion of many people, if you know your mistakes and can correct them, you should give others a chance. But I will not give this kind of opportunity. Any big traitor and traitor.

Maybe killing a Li Shouxin will make the puppet Mongolian army hate our Eighth Route Army even more.But it’s better, let those people who were bullied by the puppet Mongolian army hate us, right?We call ourselves the people's soldiers, and the opinions of the people are the most important.

If during the public trial of Li Shouxin, the people are willing to give him a chance to live, I will obey the people's opinions.If the people insist on executing Li Shouxin to avenge those who died under him in the early years, then he must die! "

It was He Zhengdao's insistence that Li Shouxin, who finally thought he could escape death, was executed in the end.Many officers and soldiers of the Third Infantry Division breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news.

From Lu Zhencao's point of view, he was also worried that the Eighth Route Army would give Li Shouxin some preferential treatment.After all, in the eyes of many politicians, Li Shouxin is also a worthy target.As for the opinions of ordinary people, how many people really pay attention to them?

As a result, He Zhengdao still did not forget his original intention, and completely ignored Li Shouxin's promise.In fact, when Li Shouxin said that he would persuade the puppet Mongolian army to surrender, and even join the Eighth Route Army to fight against the Kwantung Army, He Zhengdao still did not waver in his determination to kill him.

Using what He Zhengdao said in the interrogation room at that time, it was: "You were able to betray the Northeast Army and join the Kwantung Army, and now you can betray the Kwantung Army and join the Eighth Route Army to survive. Then one day in the future, will you betray again?

In fact, if you join the Kwantung Army and choose to betray, maybe you can use the current situation as an explanation.But these years, in order to help the Kwantung Army rule the so-called puppet Mongolian government, how many anti-Japanese soldiers and innocent people have you killed?

If one life can be saved just by admitting mistakes, then who will avenge the hatred and hatred of the other people who were killed by him?What's more, what's the use of a force that can surrender to anyone at any time? "

It was these words that completely destroyed Li Shouxin's illusions.Not long after, Li Shouxin, who was put on public trial in Ulanqab City, was directly sentenced by the Eighth Route Army to face the death penalty on the spot amid the shouts of the crowd.

Before leaving Zhangjiakou, Li Shouxin also kept an army under the command of his confidant generals in the city.From Li Shouxin's point of view, this is his lair, and he must not lose it at any time, and it is also a way out for himself.

But with Li Shouxin's execution, the troops he left in the city also became targets of suppression by the puppet Mongolian army and the Japanese army.Even the rebellion that broke out in Zhangjiakou before was caused by this army.

Although in the end the Japanese army only executed those puppet Mongolian soldiers who participated in the rebellion.But those pseudo-Mongolian soldiers who survived were reduced to marginal figures.Even with the normal food supply, the Japanese army in the city provided them every meal.

What even made these puppet Mongolian soldiers aggrieved was that even if they wanted to leave the city, they were stopped by the Japanese army in the city.In a word, Zhangjiakou, which used to be their hometown, has become a large prison to detain them.

Hundreds of puppet Mongolian soldiers survived, so they could only grit their teeth and persist.In their view, in the current situation, they can only expect the Eighth Route Army to enter Zhangjiakou.As long as the Eighth Route Army enters the city, even death is better than life like this.

These puppet soldiers who survived every day have also become the targets of attack and pleasure for other subordinates belonging to King De's henchmen.Until the Japanese army in the city suddenly withdrew from Zhangjiakou overnight.

In fact, these puppet troops have been looking for opportunities to escape from Zhangjiakou.It's a pity that they all know that such opportunities are rare.Not to mention the puppet soldiers in the city staring at them, even if there are patrols outside the city to shoot and kill the so-called deserters at any time.

Hearing the report from the guard next to him, the only surviving puppet cavalry commander said in disbelief: "The little devil really left? Are you sure?"
