Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

Many Chinese people in later generations have a misunderstanding about the army, or inertial thinking, thinking that the armies of the world should be like our national army, a civilized army, and an army that protects the people.

In fact, except for the Chinese army, no other country's army in the world will protect the people. They may even be exploiters and abusers of the people. This was the case in our country before our army appeared.

The army is always an institution of violence. Only the army with the word "people" in front of it is the guardian of the people. The rest are just machines of violence!

To give some simple examples, many people in later generations like Germany's troops, but the crimes committed by Germany in Europe are not much less than those committed by the Japanese in China.

Putting aside what happened to the squids, they were also cruel to the people in other occupied areas, especially the people of the Russians.

The reason why many people forgave De San was that he admitted his mistakes after the war and received corresponding punishment, while their people were also severely ravaged by the Soviet army.

The Japanese were stubborn and refused to admit their mistakes, and the Chinese were unable to retaliate, so the Chinese wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible.

One day in the future, when the Chinese people are able to retaliate all the humiliations against Xiaozizuo, we will also generously forgive Xiaozizuo. After all, the island has sunk into the sea, and there is no other way but to forgive.

Chapter 372 The Fortress Built by the Japs

This is true for Germany's troops, the United States' troops, and even more so for Russia's troops.

The few armies that could be considered civilized during World War II were probably John Bull's army and the Italian army, both of which had relatively few criminal records.

By the way, there was also a French army. They surrendered quickly enough and there was no place to disrupt their military discipline, so they raised the Plain White Banner.

Among these armies, the crime rate of the Mao Bear troops was very high, especially against women in the occupied areas.

This is not a deliberate attempt to smear the Soviet Union after its fall, but a fact.

At the same time, we cannot use the high crime rate of the Soviet troops to cover up their contribution to the anti-fascism movement.

After the Soviet troops invaded Desan, the number of women in Desan who were oppressed by the Soviets reached 1.5 million, and this was just one area of ​​Desan.

The same things have been happening in other areas occupied by the Russian troops, including the four northeastern provinces.

These Russian troops did not even spare their own people. Some Russian female prisoners of war captured by De San were also bullied by the Russians after being rescued by Russian soldiers.

The Russian leaders were well aware of these things, and the big bearded man had no choice but to condone them. This situation lasted for more than a year before they began to rectify military discipline.

In addition to crimes against women in the occupied areas, the Russian soldiers' favorite thing to do was to rob. They robbed everything, from gold to food, from machinery and equipment to clothes worn by ordinary people.

Especially in the later period, the Russian army had a tacit unspoken rule that every Russian soldier could mail no more than five kilograms of things to his home every month. No one would care about the source of these things, and no one would check you if the amount did not exceed this.

As a result, the Russian troops plundered the occupied areas.

The situation in the four northeastern provinces was similar at the time. The Russian bear wanted to pack up even a single screw and take it away.

However, the Shancheng side simply pretended not to see it. In the end, it was only after our troops went to meet with the bearded man that the Russian troops in the Far East were restrained.

One of the main reasons why the Russian army has such poor military discipline is that its regular army was almost wiped out in several battles, and many of the soldiers who were later added were criminals, gangsters, etc.

In addition, due to the Great Purge, the capable grassroots officers of the Russian Bear were almost cleared out, and later those officers had almost no control over the grassroots troops.

At the same time, at the Kwantung Army Border Guard Command, Commander Genzo Yanagida was frowning and asking the confidential secretary beside him. Every spring, the Japanese border guard team would send people to report on their work, but no one from the Arxantun team came this year.

"Why didn't the Arxantun team send anyone to report on their work?"

The Arshantun Team was the Japanese infantry battalion stationed in Arshan that was killed by Zhao Gang. The battalion commander was named Ximen Ichiro.

"Report, we've contacted them, but the phone line can't be dialed through. There might be a problem with the line. Someone has been sent to check the line."

"Well, let's have the 107th Division, which is building a fortress nearby, send someone to take a look."

"Hayi!"

At this time, in an underground bunker in a ravine around Arshan, a group of Japanese soldiers were supervising the captured laborers who were digging bunkers. After about two years of construction, these bunkers were almost completed and were now undergoing final finishing work.

A large amount of supplies has already been transferred into these underground fortifications. These fortifications utilize the mountain as cover, and taking advantage of the complex terrain, the Arshan underground defenses have constructed a network approximately 40 kilometers wide and 50 kilometers long. A schematic diagram of the Dongning Fortress. The Arshan fortress is slightly smaller. The entire underground tunnel covers approximately 60,000 square meters, with a total of six defense hubs, each with numerous various bunkers and fortifications, all constructed of reinforced concrete and capable of withstanding the heavy artillery of the Russians.

Moreover, these tunnels have a large number of small entrances and exits, observation posts, and dense cross-fire networks. If there is an enemy attack, cross-fire can be easily formed to eliminate the attacking enemy.

In addition, the tunnel extends eastward, and there is a tunnel leading to the deep mountains in the east, connecting to other fortresses. In order to facilitate support, the Japanese even built some railways in some areas of the mountains to transport supplies and troops.

"Arxantun Team?"

Xi Datiao Pang, commander of the Japanese 107th Division in charge of the Arxan Fortress, was inspecting the construction of the underground fortress. After seeing the telegram, he thought for a moment and said, "Send the st Independent Mixed Brigade to Arxan to check the situation."

Because of the construction of the underground fortress, the Japanese adopted a fully closed management system and did not allow anyone to enter or leave in order to prevent leaks.

The 107th Division stationed here will not go out either. They are responsible for watching the captured workers work every day.

In order to build the Arshan Fortress, the Japanese had captured tens of thousands of laborers to work. The Japanese did not count the number of laborers who died in the fortress. After they died, they were dragged out and buried on the spot.

Since the fort was built, the trees around it have grown very densely.

"Hayi!"

After receiving the order from the division commander, the soldiers of the 71st Independent Mixed Regiment of the Japanese army quickly began to gather. They were the unit closest to Arshan. After a group of Japanese soldiers passed through the narrow exit passage, they pushed open the camouflaged entrance and exit, and emerged from the exit one after another.

It took nearly two hours for these Japanese soldiers to crawl out of the underground fortress and confirm the number of people.

The devils camouflaged the exit again and then began to rush towards the distant Arshan.

"How much food do we have now?"

Li Yunlong was still getting to know the situation of his troops at this time. After all, he had been away from the army for more than half a year, and there were many things he needed to understand clearly.

"We've already paid for all the food we purchased from the Fourth Division, a total of 20,000 tons, at a total cost of 1.13 million yuan. We also purchased approximately 10,000 tons from the Seventh Temporary Division, and 5,000 tons from the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. Adding the remaining food captured in Taiyuan and what we've consumed recently, we still have about 23,000 tons left. However, some of it hasn't been delivered yet. The food we have here is enough to last us about a month."

After hearing this, Li Yunlong couldn't help rubbing his temples. The biggest problem of the long expedition was the food problem. Now nothing was done and the food could only last for about a month.

"We must first find a way to solve the food problem!"

Li Yunlong thought for a while and prepared to contact the Russians in advance to buy some food. At this time, Staff Officer Xie trotted into the room.

"Report, Commander, Political Commissar, Chief of Staff, the outer security forces sent a telegram saying that a group of Japanese soldiers, about a regiment, was discovered in the mountains."

……

Here are three chapters to go. I'm currently nine chapters behind. I'll be taking a day off tomorrow, but I'll update one chapter, which will be a make-up chapter, so that's eight chapters! ~By the way, I bought an Android phone and created a fan group. You can follow me and join the group to chat.

Finally, I want to respond to a book review. One commenter told me not to have a stance when writing a book. If I don't have a stance, what's the point of writing a book? What book has no stance? My stance is the same as what is written in my book.

Chapter 373: The First Shot of the Heilongjiang-Jilin-Liaoning-Chahar Military Region Officially Fired

"A squadron? Where did it come from?"

"I don't know. It seems they suddenly appeared in the mountains. The outer security forces didn't find any trace of them before."

After hearing this, Li Yunlong stood up suddenly and said: "Inform Ding Wei and Kong Jie to destroy this Japanese army. This is the first shot fired by our Heilongjiang-Jilin-Liaoning-Chahar Military Region, and we must fight beautifully.

"And remember to leave some people alive. There's something fishy going on in this mountain behind us, just as I learned!"

Zhao Gang, the chief of staff and others did not know where this Japanese army unit came from, but Li Yunlong could roughly guess that this Japanese army unit should be part of the Japanese 107th Division in Arshan.

That's why Li Yunlong ordered to leave them alive.

Li Yunlong's troops moved quickly. Ding Wei immediately led a regiment under his command to the road that the Japanese troops were expected to take to go down the mountain. At this time, Ding Wei was at a high point in the distance, observing the situation in the woods with a telescope.

The winter snow has begun to melt, and the trees have started to grow green leaves again. In the woods, a group of Japanese soldiers wearing khaki uniforms can be seen moving rapidly towards Arshan.

Not far away, Kong Jie's troops also arrived at the ambush site.

"Old Ding, where did this group of devils come from?"

"I don't know. Lao Li asked us to leave some of them alive. I think it's for this reason. My troops will ambush them, and your troops will surround them. Try not to let the devil escape."

"Okay, Yang Wanli!"

"Commander!"

At this time, Yang Wanli had become a regiment commander under Kong Jie.

"You took your troops and went around behind the devils. If you let even one of them escape, I won't forgive you!"

"Yes!"

"Get ready to do it!"

The Japanese army had already entered the ambush circle. In fact, this ambush circle did not have time to build any defensive fortifications. It only used various trees as cover. There were troops that had just arrived on both sides, surrounding the Japanese in the middle.

"Inform all troops to pay attention to the firing range, don't cause any accidental injuries, and bomb the Japanese first!"

"Yes!"

After receiving Ding Wei's order, the soldiers of the Second Column quickly dispersed. Then the soldiers carrying rocket launchers used the trees as cover in the woods and carefully approached the Japanese marching column.

Now the rocket launcher has been improved, and its range has increased from 150 meters to about 250 meters. The warhead has also been modified. There are high-explosive shells specifically for dealing with infantry, as well as armor-piercing shells specifically for dealing with tanks.

These are all thanks to Jia Xiaohou's family.

"beat!"

Following the order from Song Wenrui, commander of the New Third Regiment of the Second Column.

One hundred bazooka operators pulled the trigger.

"call out!"

"call out!"

"call out……"

The rocket launcher flew towards the Japanese marching column with its tail flame.

The marching column of this Japanese regiment was very long, with three people in a row and two people in a row, dragging their feet.

However, it was also because of this slow marching method that many Japanese soldiers managed to escape.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

"..."

As explosions sounded, rockets fell into the Japanese ranks. Some of the rockets deviated in flight and hit some nearby trees.

The warheads of these rockets are all high-explosive bombs, and they are filled with some small metal particles. After the explosion, they fly in all directions instantly.

However, because the ambush was in the mountains and the terrain was very complex, the full lethality of the high-explosive bombs could not be exerted, and most of the metal fragments and small steel balls added to the warheads did not hit the Japanese.
