"You really are. If it were me, I would drive them all in one place, and let them be honest with me during the war. Anyone who dares to make a change will be shot. In the war years, where are there so many fantasies? It takes so many bodhisattva hearts."

Shang Zhen frowned.

When fighting, I think a lot.

If it is a peaceful age, you can still consider some.But during the war, the casualties are tens of thousands, pieces of corpses.It doesn't matter how many people die.

"Commander, Anton (Dandong) intelligence."

Because of the war, people come in to report anytime and anywhere.

This time it was Bai Jianwu, Director of the Intelligence Department of the Anti-Japanese War Command, who came in this time.At this time, there is no hiding, Bai Jianwu is also openly active.

At this time, no one knew that Bai Jianwu was sent by Duan Xun to collect Japanese intelligence in his early years.

"The North Korean division is here?"

As soon as he heard that it was Anton's information, Shang Zhen immediately stood up.At present, the Chinese army's offensive is relatively smooth.Compared with the hasty battle of the Japanese army, the Chinese army has been preparing for a long time.

Facing the Kwantung Army, the Chinese Air Force and artillery units bombed indiscriminately.

The Kwantung Army is not the later Kwantung Army. The current Kwantung Army has less than [-] people, and it is still unable to enter the ranks of the Japanese army.This is true whether it is the composition of personnel or weapons and equipment.

Although the Kwantung Army was very tenacious, it also retreated steadily in the face of the Chinese army's attack.One position after another was lost, and the Chinese army was about to advance to the Wafangdian area.

The Kwantung Army panicked.

So a line of defense was built again in Wafangdian to stop the Chinese army.

At this time, Shang Zhen was most worried about the North Korean division.Although the North Korean division has been in North Korea for a long time, compared with the Kwantung Army, its size and weapons and equipment are much better.

"Yes."

Bai Jianwu nodded and said: "Information from Pyongyang. The Korean division of the Japanese army has finished preparations, and the vanguard is ready to take the train to the northeast to participate in the war. According to the time calculation, I estimate that the vanguard will be able to enter Andong in a day. All the troops of the Korean division All should be able to enter the northeast of our country within four days."

Gather intelligence.

Over the years, Bai Jianwu has owned many intelligence networks.

Including the use of North Korean anti-Japanese people who fled to China, and using them to set up an intelligence agency on the Korean Peninsula.Although it is not perfect, the actions of the large forces can still be understood.

"one day."

Shang Zhen looked at the map, thought for a while and said, "Send a telegram to Anton to blow up the Andong Yalu River Bridge."

"Commander."

Bai Jianwu was very surprised.

Even Jiang Hongyu who was next to him was instantly surprised.

The Andong Yalu River Bridge was built as early as the end of the Qing Dynasty, and it was built by the Railway Bureau of the Governor of Japan and Korea.It was for the purpose of opening a railway, connecting North Korea to Andong, and Andong to Shenyang.

In this way, China's resources can be directly transported from Shenyang to Busan by relying on this railway.Then use the Port of Busan to ship things to Japan.It is a very important route for Japan to plunder Chinese resources.So don't look at this bridge as just the Yalu River Bridge, with a length of about 940 meters.

But the strategic position is very important.

But Shang Zhen directly demanded that the bridge be blown up.

"Just send the order like this. Tell the frontline troops to estimate the bombs needed to blow up the bridge and the plan. If it is difficult to blow up the bridge, then blow up the railway on the bridge for me. No railway is allowed to pass through this bridge." The bridge. Then cut open the railway at least two kilometers from Anton."

Shang Zhen originally wanted to blow up the bridge.

But after thinking about it, I still gave him a buffer, which was to blow up the railway.

A lot of pressure.

Shang Zhen knew that Duan Xun had gambled on his own fate and that of the country in this war with Japan.If this battle is lost, Duan Xun's political life may end here.Duan Xun's cabinet is also possible

384 War 4

"Captain, the police station is right. You see, the railway line on the bridge is destroyed. The train can't pass at all."

Korean division.

The action is very slow.

Even the Japanese military was very dissatisfied, and reprimanded the North Korean division several times, telling them to prepare quickly and go to the battlefield as soon as possible.Including the Governor of North Korea have been continuously criticized by the Japanese cabinet.Because the North Korean division is so close to Northeast China, and they have the advantage of the railway, but it turned out to be dawdling and delayed for more than five days.A qualified army should have advanced troops arrive at the battlefield within two or three days at the most.However, the movement of the North Korean division is not generally slow, and it is not even faster than the troops prepared by the Japanese mainland.The North Korean division did not arrive at Sinuiju until the morning of August 1923, 8.

Incredibly slow.Even the first batch of reinforcements from Japan were ready to go on the 19th, and they would be able to arrive in Lushun about a day later.

The reinforcement of Japanese troops was too slow, which made the war in the Northeast very unfavorable.

The Chinese army defeated several lines of defense of the Japanese army one after another, and had already advanced to Pulandian.As long as Pulandian is breached, large Chinese troops will be able to rush towards Jinzhou and Dalian.

Then the situation will be very unfavorable.The Kwantung Army troops currently staying in Dalian alone can't resist it at all.However, amidst the scolding, the North Korean division finally came to Sinuiju and came to the Yalu River.

Sinuiju was later the capital of North Pyongan Province in North Korea, and it was a very important city.But now Sinuiju is just a small village.Later, the great development was the reason why the Japanese focused on building Sinuiju in order to plunder the mineral resources in the Northeast.

But not now.

There are not many Japanese institutions here.As soon as the troops arrived in Sinuiju, the local police station in Sinuiju told the troops that the railway line in front was completely destroyed, telling the train that it would be impossible to pass.

And tell the troops that the Chinese army has long come here to deploy the line of defense.

So several Japanese military officers came down to check the situation.

"Damn Chinese people."

Taro Yamamoto looked at the completely destroyed railway and couldn't help cursing.

Have a look.

What's the situation with this railway, it's really beyond recognition.

The vanguard is the Korean Division, which is a brigade of the 77th Infantry Regiment of the Japanese 20th Division.At this time, the railway transportation was completely incomparable with the later ones. The No. [-] Division wanted to transport all of them to the Yalu River. According to the current railway transportation capacity, it would be impossible without more than two days.

Taro Yamamoto is the captain of the 77th Infantry Regiment.

"map."

The No.20 Division is a force specially formed to station North Korea.I only came to North Korea last year, and I am not even very familiar with North Korea.I don't know much about the situation in Northeast China.

Because the North Korean division came to be stationed in North Korea, there is no plan to transfer to the Northeast in a short time.

Had it not been for the emergency this time, the No.20 Division would not have been transferred to Sinuiju in such a hurry.In fact, the governor of North Korea is also very resentful.

The cabinet knows about criticism, but they don't know the specific situation on the Korean peninsula.
