Beiyang reactionaries

Let these people be integrated into the Korean Independence Army.

The main thing is to tell them that this is the army and they must obey orders.

"You learn by yourself first."

Park Shiguang distributed a pamphlet to these people, which contained the military discipline of the Korean Independence Army.Because the Korean Independence Army was single-handedly supported and cultivated by the Chinese army, their military discipline and troop composition all imitated the Chinese army.

"Director Ge."

"Commander Park, there is something new. Let's find a place to talk."

"Okay. Go to my side."

The two came to Park Shiguang's military office.There was no one around, so Ge ​​Jingen handed over the telegram to Park Shiguang.Park Shiguang took it and took a look.

He frowned just looking at it.

Because the above content is very simple, the negotiations between China and Japan in Tokyo have achieved results.China and Japan have reached a new cooperation agreement, and another cooperation statement will be announced soon.

The specific content is not written, but the meaning is already very clear.

China and Japan had issued the "Beijing Statement" before, after which Japan began to send reinforcements into the Korean peninsula on a large scale.The last is to besiege Hyesan County.

Now China and Japan have reached some agreements again.

In other words, it shows that the Japanese army will launch another attack on Hyesan County.

"Director Ge, what should we do now?"

Park Shiguang was a little impatient.

In the first phase of the confrontation with the Japanese army, the Korean Independence Army was still retreating steadily under the strong artillery support of the Chinese army.Lost a large area of ​​positions.

At that time, Pu Shiguang and the others realized that although the Korean Independence Army possessed powerful firepower, it was still no match for the Japanese army in terms of combat effectiveness.

Now that the Japanese army is about to attack Hyesan County again, how can Park Shiguang not be nervous.

"Commander Park, there's nothing wrong with it."

Ge Jingen was very calm.

He said to Park Shiguang: "Commander Park, this time we have readjusted our defensive position and increased our defense depth, so we won't be breached as easily as before. Even if the first line of defense is breached, there is still a second line of defense, Huanhuan They are closely intertwined. And this time the readjustment of deployment is mainly to increase mutual cooperation and give full play to the advantages of the independent army in firepower. The independent army has strong firepower, as long as we give full play to this advantage, we can completely hold the position."

Ge Jingen immediately cheered up Pu Shiguang.

What Ge Jingen is worried about is that the top leaders of the Korean Independence Army will lose confidence.Once they lose confidence, it will affect the morale of the Korean Independence Army.

Once an army loses morale, it will collapse at the touch of a button.If Hyesan County is lost, the Korean independence movement will suffer a huge setback.

Now that Hyesan County is here, the Korean independence movement will have no problems.Groups of North Korean resistance forces, as well as those students, all came to Huisan County.

In a short period of time, tens of thousands of rebel forces and students defected to Hyesan County.Therefore, Huisan County cannot fail. This is the attitude of the Chinese government and Ge Jingen's task.

So Ge Jingen can't let Park Shiguang lose confidence.

"Commander Park, think about it. It's going to be September now. As long as we hold on, the temperature will continue to drop. Because of the war around Hyesan County, including the previous riots, many villages are empty, and there are no people around." Who. It is very difficult for the Japanese army to obtain logistics in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. They can only rely on supplies from the south. This puts huge logistical pressure on the Japanese army. When it snows, the Japanese army’s supplies will be even more problematic .Once the snow falls, the Japanese army's offensive strength will be greatly reduced. In other words, as long as we persist until the snow falls, the situation will be in our favor."

"snow?"

Pu Shiguang nodded slowly.

In this era, the temperature in winter is very low, and the snow is also very heavy.If the time is earlier, at the end of September, the first snow may fall.Frost is common in mid-September.In some extreme years, there may be frost in early September, and the temperature may drop to around zero at night.

As long as the temperature drops, it will be a test for both parties.

Look at the logistics of both sides.

In this regard, the Korean Independence Army has an advantage.Because they are backed by China, all the logistics are given to them by China.In addition, Huishan County is directly connected to China, and there is only one Yalu River in the middle.

As long as there is no logistical problem in the Linjiang area, the Korean Independence Army in Hyesan County will have no logistical problems.

But the Japanese army was different.

The Korean peninsula has been too chaotic this year, which has seriously affected the Korean peninsula's own economy.It is impossible for the Japanese army to obtain logistics supplies on the Korean Peninsula, so they can only transport logistics from the mainland.

In terms of logistics supply, the Japanese army is obviously inferior to the Korean Independence Army.So as long as you persist until it snows, it will become more and more difficult for the Japanese army to obtain supplements.

"Commander Park, Japan's finances can't last long. As long as Commander Park's troops can defend Hyesan County for two months, Japan will definitely not be able to maintain such a war. And as long as it snows, the Japanese army is even more powerless." Capture Hyesan County. At that time, the Japanese army may not be able to continue on the Korean Peninsula, and that is a great opportunity for the independence of the Korean Peninsula. This war is the most important battle for Korean independence.”

What Ge Jingen said made Pu Shiguang very excited.

independent, independent.

It's something these people have always dreamed of.How many people did they sacrifice for North Korea's independence?According to Ge Jingen, as long as they carry it through, the Japanese army may not be able to continue to stay on the Korean Peninsula.

North Korean independence could become a reality.

Thinking of this, Park Shiguang nodded again and again, and even showed excitement on his face.Speaking of which, there are more and more people under Park Shiguang's hands, because China is constantly training recruits and then replenishing them.

Beat the Japanese?

Park Shiguang has no confidence.However, taking advantage of the favorable terrain of Hyesan County, coupled with the powerful firepower configuration of the Korean Independence Army, and the support of Chinese artillery, Park Shiguang is confident that he can persist for two months.

Seeing Pu Shiguang recover his confidence, Ge Jingen was relieved.

Japan's withdrawal from the Korean peninsula?

Ge Jingen really didn't dare to speak casually.Although Ge Jingen knew that once winter entered, once it snowed in Huishan County, it would be very difficult for the Japanese army to capture Huishan County within this year.

But what about next year?

As soon as spring begins and the Japanese attack again, can Huishan County withstand it?There are only four brigades currently attacking by the Japanese army, which is still smaller than the Korean Independence Army in number.

But what if the Japanese army increased its strength?

Even if they can't conquer Hyesan County this year, there is no problem for them to go back and sweep other parts of North Korea.It is no problem to wipe out those resisting forces one by one, and then restore the rule over the Korean peninsula.

Will Japan withdraw from the Korean peninsula?

The Korean peninsula is an important strategic area for Japan. Will they give up?

However, Ge Jingen would not tell Pu Shiguang about these things, because Ge Jingen needed Pu Shiguang and the top leaders of the Korean Independence Army to have the determination to die.

"Director Ge, I will call a meeting now. Let the troops prepare for battle."

"it is good."

On August 1925, 8, China and Japan signed the "Sino-Japanese Trade Supplementary Agreement" in Tokyo.While signing the "Trade Supplementary Agreement", Japanese Foreign Minister Koki Hirota and Chinese Minister Plenipotentiary to Japan Wu Chaoshu jointly announced that the two countries would abide by the "Beijing Statement".
