    Chapter 145: Soldiers Arrive at Xinjing

    Muto Nobuyoshi intuitively felt that behind his resignation this time, there must be the shadow of the old guy Nanjiro. He was aggrieved in his heart. He was a typical politician and bureaucrat, but not quite like a soldier.

    Even within the military circles, Nanjiro is not famous for his outstanding military talents, but for his superb political skills to maintain his high position today. This person has no independent opinions on military issues, his position is unstable, and he is good at seeing the wind.  Use the rudder.

    "The base camp actually uses this kind of person to serve as the supreme commander of the Kwantung Army. The situation in Manchuria can only get worse. It is simply a joke. When I return to my homeland, I must appeal. Maybe there will be a day when I come back."

    Muto Nobuyoshi did not get the chance. Soon after returning to Japan, due to repeated defeats in Manchuria, the situation was corrupted. The Kwantung Army was shouting for death. In order to calm the public anger, the Japanese army headquarters ordered him to be transferred to the reserve force, and he has been in despair ever since.  After quitting the military, he lost his glory, but he escaped the harsh trial of the Far East Military Tribunal after World War II.

    And Nanjiro did not make the situation in Manchuria worse as he estimated. This old Japanese made full use of his own advantages and used various means, mainly military encirclement and suppression, and used surrender, differentiation, and inducement as the main methods.  Auxiliary, use the main force to encircle and suppress the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and use all possible means to deal with other anti-Japanese armed forces.

    The anti-Japanese situation in Northeast China entered the most difficult stage and reached a low ebb. During his tenure as the supreme commander of the Kwantung Army, the anti-Japanese armed forces in Northeast China dropped sharply from more than 45,000 people at the beginning to more than 13,000 people in the end.  .

    Since then, this old devil has actively promoted the autonomy of North China and East Hebei, and has been a vanguard for Japan's full-scale invasion of China.

    Nanjiro did not get any valuable information from his conversation with Nobuyoshi Muto, and Nobuyoshi Muto did not even have the most basic information about the so-called Blood Hand Group. This made Nanjiro full of contempt for Nobuyoshi Muto.

    He is just a arrogant warrior, and his failure is inevitable. He does not understand that in the land of Manchuria, military strikes and political methods are equally important. Nanjiro looked at the military map left by Nobuyoshi Muto and felt that  The strength of the Kwantung Army is still not enough. In such a large area, hundreds of thousands of troops are like a few stones thrown into the sea.

    After Muto Nobuyoshi left sadly, he immediately sent an emergency telegram to the base camp. In addition to enumerating Muto Nobuyoshi's mistakes, the most important thing was to request more troops from the mainland to Manchuria, at least four divisions and more than 150,000 people.

    Then, he began to solve the problem of Eastern Manchuria. He did not immediately mobilize the main force of the Kwantung Army on the Andong front line in Western Manchuria like Muto Nobuyoshi did. Instead, he convened several military meetings at the level of commander or above.

    In addition to reviewing past military defeats, through the comprehensive reflections of Japanese officers at all levels, his chief of staff, Lieutenant General Nishio Shuzo, summed up the combat characteristics of the Blood Hand Regiment. In every battle, we must use absolutely superior forces to encircle and annihilate our outstanding Kanto  The army has extremely fierce firepower and is good at running long distances to attack our weak links.

    Not to mention, Nishio built this old devil. His military qualities made up for Nanjiro's weaknesses. The points he summarized are generally reliable.

    Subsequently, Nanjiro merged all the spies and intelligence agencies in Manchuria and established the Kwantung Army Intelligence Headquarters to uniformly direct the intelligence work in Manchuria. He extended his tentacles to every corner of the Northeast and tried his best to collect all information about the Blood Hands.  intelligence.

    Tang Qiuli, who was training troops in Mudanjiang, didn't know that his opponent had already been replaced by Nanjiro, who although his military qualities were not very good, was good at playing politics. Because Nanjiro came to Fengtian this time, it was extremely confidential and bloody.  Neither the Hand Group nor the intelligence network of the Manchuria Provincial Committee discovered this major change.

    He was planning a larger military operation. Taking advantage of all the mobile forces of the Japanese, which were still stationed on the Andong front line in Western Manchuria, and the empty troops in other areas, he took the opportunity by surprise to capture Xinjing, the so-called capital of the puppet Manchukuo (today's capital of Jilin Province).  Changchun City).

    "I now have more than 20,000 troops in my hands, and I am fully capable of doing so. I can take advantage of the Japanese command authority and give him a severe beating before the Bloody Hands' next move can be determined."

    After the battle plan was finalized, he ordered the special detachment units operating around Xinjing to collect all intelligence about Xinjing. At the same time, he contacted Qiu Sheng who stayed at the base and activated the Xinjing intelligence network to collect information about Xinjing for the troops.  military intelligence.

    Three days later, the second, third, and fourth detachments of the Blood Hand Regiment, as well as the cavalry detachment, artillery detachment, and special detachment, with a total strength of more than 23,000 people, left the Mudanjiang area and rushed to the outskirts of Xinjing.

    Due to excessive battle losses, one team returned to the base for repairs and was also tasked with training new recruits. The recruits recruited from Anton, coupled with thisIn addition to the recruits recruited in the campaign, the total number of recruits training at the base has now reached more than 14,000, which is a huge pressure on the base's recruit training.

    For reasons of confidentiality, the unit's combat objectives were only communicated to the captain level. Ordinary soldiers did not know where they were required to fight, but their emotions were very high. There were more than 20,000 people, and they were still afraid of the little Japs.  !

    The troops climbed over the Zhangguangcai Ridge, crossed the Songhua River, and the Yinma River. Along the way, they uprooted the Japanese and puppet strongholds. This kind of momentum was needed. The main force of the Japanese was far away, and the attack was due to the time difference. They even defeated Shulan, Jiutai, etc.  Five days later, we arrived at the outskirts of Xinjing.

    At this time, Xinjing was already in a panic. Ever since Muto Nobuyoshi had mobilized all the mobile forces in various places in order to encircle the main force of the Blood Hand Regiment, Xinjing now only has the strength of the Japanese Xinjing garrison to strengthen the alliance.  , there are about 5,000 people, and there are 8,000 troops from the Capital Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Kingdom.

    The rest are the Japanese military police headquarters, which has two military police brigades with a strength of about 1,800 people. The rest are police, spies and other armed forces.

    Nanjiro and Nishio Shuzo, who were making intensive plans to restore public order in the East Manchuria area, did not expect that the Blood Hand Group would come to do this. They were so anxious that they almost vomited blood. What kind of place was Xinjing? They knew better than anyone else where Xinjing was in Manchukuo.  Symbolically, the main force is still in the Anton area. Even if it grows wings, it will be too late to fly.

    This sudden move of the Blood Hand Regiment was not only unexpected by Nanjiro, an old devil, but also disrupted Nanjiro's overall deployment. He did not expect that Blood Hand Qiuli would make such a bold move and dare to attack Manchukuo.  At this time, he somewhat understood Muto Nobuyoshi's mood.

    In addition to ordering the defenders in Jilin, Dehui, Nong'an, Gongzhuling, Siping, Yitong and other places around Xinjing to abandon their current strongholds and to reinforce Xinjing at all costs, Nanjiro also negotiated with the commander of the Kwantung Army Air Force  , sending aircraft to support the Xinjing front line.

    This is exactly what Tang Qiuli hoped. The original purpose of attacking Xinjing was to attract the Japanese from all over the country to come for reinforcements, in order to achieve the purpose of eliminating the effective strength of the Japanese. Otherwise, they would not attack Xinjing with great fanfare.

    If Xingjing can be captured, we will fight. If we cannot, we will attack the surrounding small towns. In short, the battle for Xingjing is to eliminate the effective forces of the Japanese, and at the same time, cause greater political impact and disrupt the Japanese deployment. This  It was Tang Qiuli before the troops set off.  A message to commanders at all levels.

    The Japanese reinforcements from all walks of life were originally relatively small in strength. Among them, the two largest groups of Japanese reinforcements came from Jilin and Gongzhuling, with more than 2,000 people each. Under Nanjiro's stern orders, they desperately headed towards Xinjing.  Advance.

    Midway, they entered the ambush circle that the Blood Hand Regiment had already laid out. They launched a fierce artillery fire and concentrated their overwhelmingly superior troops. In less than four hours, more than 4,000 Japanese soldiers were wiped out.

    The other Japanese who reinforced Xinjing also suffered the same fate. After Su Jingfeng came back, he was still very dissatisfied. He swallowed it in one gulp. Before he could taste anything, the little Japanese were all finished. This battle could not be fought.  Enjoyable.

    After clearing away the Japanese reinforcements, the troops surrounded Xinjing. Due to their late establishment, almost all the cities in the northeast have no city walls. This is unlike in Guan Nei, where all larger cities have ancient city walls. This  It caused great difficulties to the attacking troops.

    In addition to the fact that Xinjing has no city walls, its city defense system is almost blank, because this is the capital of Manchukuo. No matter which senior Japanese commander, no one expected that anti-Japanese armed forces would dare to attack the capital.

    The captain of the Japanese garrison in Xinjing, Toshida Yoshio, had a bitter taste in his mouth. Last year, he finally spent a lot of money and used his wife's body to get a good job at the base camp and became the city defense commander in Xinjing.

    This place is really good. You don¡¯t have to go to the front line to fight against the Anti-Japanese Alliance. The Kwantung Army headquarters is in Fengtian, which is far away from here. On this ground, I, Yoshio Toshida, am the Emperor of Japan.

    Even though Puyi, the Kant Emperor of Manchukuo, is here, he is just a decoration. I have the final say on everything. These officials of Manchukuo, big and small, are very filial. In less than a year, they not only earned their capital back,  I also got a few concubines, these days are so magical!

    But I never thought about it. I don¡¯t know how to fight against the anti-Japanese armed forces that came out. There are still so many troops. Look at the soldiers under my command. They are either children of rich families, or they are people who came here through the back door to get gold and enjoy happiness through connections.  , they are all young masters and lambs.

    ¡°None of them have ever fought on the front line. They usually bully and bully the common people in Manchuria. But if they go to the battlefield, their claws will be numb. As for the Manchurian soldiers, they are even less capable. They probably don¡¯t even know how to use a gun.

    According to Yoshio Toshida¡¯s wishes, all the troops withdrew from Xinjing and moved closer to Harbin to avoid being captured.The anti-Japanese armed forces have been wiped out. As for the emperor, if he is willing to follow, then take him with him. If he is not willing to leave, please do as he pleases!

    But looking at the telegram in his hand, how could he dare? Commander Nanjiro only said these words in the telegram: "Keep Xinjing to the death. If it is lost, shoot him with your own hands!" Look, even a decent suicide by caesarean section is not enough.

    There was no other way. Yoshio Toshida, who had never fought in a war, hurriedly held a joint meeting. After that, he rushed all the armed forces that could be mobilized to the outer fortifications of Xinjing. The fortifications were just temporary dug trenches. Fortunately,  The Chinese armed forces did not attack immediately, otherwise, they would not even have time to repair the shallow ditch.

    Yoshio Toshida stood at a commanding height, holding a telescope to observe the situation. When his lens turned to the southeast of Xinjing, his face turned gray and beads of sweat fell from his head.
