    Chapter 746 Suspicion

    The sun rises, thousands of rays of rays disperse the mist in the mountains, and another morning arrives in western Liaoning. Through the telescope, you can see that on the preset ambush position, there is no one on the right wing, but there is no one on the left wing.  The busy crowd made it difficult for the soldiers who retreated from Liugu River. They fought for a day and ran for most of the night. Without taking a breath, they continued to build fortifications and disguise themselves. Looking at their watches, it was already morning.  At around seven o'clock, he wanted to send a staff officer to inquire about the progress of the left wing troops, but gave up the idea. He believed that the soldiers and this unit could complete the task on time.

    The artillery fire from the direction of Suizhong became more intense. Both sides of the road from Niuxin Mountain to Shanhaiguan, which stretched for more than 30 kilometers, were ambush areas. Such a long front may not be able to accommodate all the Kwantung Army's southward troops. The Japanese army  There were too many troops. At around nine o'clock in the morning, there was still no telegram from Feng Jiwu. The reconnaissance troops sent out also reported that no Kwantung Army troops were found in the direction of Suizhong. They were heading towards Shanhaiguan, and there were only scattered ones in the Liugu River area.  Tang Qiuli couldn't help but feel anxious secretly.

    "Could it be that Feng Jiwu's troops failed to get rid of the Kwantung Army troops smoothly and were entangled in the Liugu River area?  It must have been a fierce battle, why were there just sporadic gunshots? To say that five brigades of troops were wiped out by the Kwantung Army within two or three hours, Tang Qiuli would not have believed it anyway, but why didn't Feng  After receiving the telegram that Jiwu had successfully evacuated to Nuruerhu Mountain, Tang Qiuli felt a little panicked and confused.

    After being stunned for a while, Tang Qiuli ordered the reconnaissance troops to pay close attention to the movements of the Kwantung Army. They could get close to reconnaissance and find out the Liugu River area and the reasons for the battle. If Feng Jiwu was really surrounded, he would command all the troops.  The troops pressed forward and fought to the death with the Kwantung Army. In a head-on confrontation, it was not certain who would die.

    At 10 o'clock in the morning, the left wing troops reported that all preparations had been completed and all troops had entered the ambush position. Tang Qiuli breathed a sigh of relief. The ambush plan could be carried out on time and the net was set up. All that was left was to wait patiently.  At that time, the reconnaissance force also sent back intelligence. The gunfire in the Liugu River area had completely stopped, and there was no trace of the Kwantung Army troops. Tang Qiuli wondered, what are the Japanese doing?  It's been a whole morning and we haven't pushed towards Shanhaiguan yet.

    Are you waiting for the follow-up troops to approach?  Tang Qiuli suddenly stood up and sent an order to the Northeast Intelligence Center Station of the Intelligence Department. It must be found out whether the Eastern Army troops have continued to gather in the western Liaoning area in the near future. Is there any trace of the Kwantung Army troops in the direction of Jinzhou? It shouldn't be.  The current strength of the Kwantung Army is strong enough. Does it need reinforcements?  Is it possible that the Japanese pushed all the Kwantung Army towards the Ping-Tianjin area within the Kwantung Pass?  This is not a good guess. If that is the case, why should we fight a decisive battle in North China? It is more important to run away to save your life. Let¡¯s run back to the Taihang Mountains first.

    Brother Qiuquan's special operations detachment has been in the hinterland of Northeast China for many days. It's time to use it. He personally drafted a message with the following orders: "Special Operations Detachment Captain Tang Qiuquan and all members of the special operations detachment. The decisive battle in North China is at a critical juncture. In order to contain the Kwantung Army troops,  Unable to gather in the western Liaoning area, your troops immediately took action to carry out large-scale destruction in various parts of the Northeast, attack their isolated and dispersed enemies and strongholds, attack the Kwantung Army's supply line from Jinzhou to Xingcheng, liaise with the anti-alliance forces, and conduct operations in southern Manchuria and northern Manchuria.  Manchuria and East Manchuria, actively take offensives to delay the Kwantung Army's intention to mobilize troops into the Pass, so as to ensure the smooth progress of the decisive battle in North China. "

    As long as Brother Qiuquan and others fight in various parts of the Northeast, the Kwantung Army headquarters will not be able to use all its forces against itself. Moreover, the Kwantung Army will concentrate its troops from various places to western Liaoning, and the garrison strength in the Northeast interior will inevitably be empty.  With these ground tigers, coupled with the cross-river dragons of the special operations detachment, the Northeast was immediately on fire, with the potential of starting a prairie fire everywhere.

    If the Kwantung Army wants to extinguish the flames all over the place, it must disperse its concentrated forces. The time it takes to go back and forth is enough to finish the decisive battle in North China and deal with the more than 400,000 Japanese troops in Tianjin. Then they will be able to strengthen their troops.  Being placed on the front line of Shanhaiguan, they have the capital to challenge the Kwantung Army head-on. As for the Kwantung Army once again carrying out a brutal encirclement and suppression by the anti-allied forces, there is nothing that can be done. It is just a situation two years later, appearing in advance.

    The Anti-Union troops can only seek their own blessings, or retreat to the Soviet Union. The special operations detachment will not fight side by side with them. The task of igniting the fire has been completed. They have already withdrawn their troops and returned to North China. If they want to monopolize the Northeast, the Anti-Union forces will  The existence of the troops has always been an obstacle and worry, and they cannot be assigned their positions. They say they are killing people with a borrowed knife. Tang Qiuli does not think that he is so despicable and insidious. It is the trend of the times and it is a last resort. However, he still specially warned Qiu in the telegram.  Quan, we must protect the life and safety of General Yang Jingyu, and if possible, invite the general to enter the customs.

    This is a telegram on the surface, and it is also the main mission of the special operations detachment to sneak into the Northeast. Commanders above the level of special operations detachment leader can receive the following telegram.It is a top secret. Tang Qiuli personally sent it. In the entire special operations detachment, only Tang Qiuquan can translate the message. The message only has one sentence, "Spring has arrived, and the roses are blooming." This is a big matter, and it is just a joke.  Of the entire ** division, only Tang Qiuli and Tang Qiuquan knew its meaning, and the others, including Liu Tiehan, Tang Qiusheng, and Feng Jiwu, did not know.

    Tang Qiuli set up an ambush in Niuxin Mountain and wondered why the Kwantung Army troops did not advance quickly. Lieutenant General Yano Otozaburo at the Xingcheng headquarters was also full of suspicion and could not guess at all. On the Liuguhe front line, **  The division troops only resisted for a while. When the Kwantung Army attacked again, they found that the blocking position of the Japanese division on the west bank of the Liugu River, which had fought for six full days and swallowed tens of thousands of imperial soldiers, was empty.

    All the soldiers of the Kwantung Army were stunned, and all the commanders of the Kwantung Army at all levels were stunned. In the past few days, they had learned painful lessons. Even if they were already standing on the opponent's position, they did not dare to rush forward to attack in depth.  The commander ordered the soldiers to reinforce the fortifications on the spot in preparation for the counterattack of the Chinese army. He also repeatedly issued strict orders to pay attention to the artillery attacks of the Chinese army. He was overly cautious, either because he was afraid of being attacked, or both. He was known as  The arrogant Kwantung Army troops, the "Flower of the Imperial Army", were nothing more than that.

    The situation was quickly reported to the commander, Lieutenant General Yano Otozaburo. The Lieutenant General was stunned at first, then happy, and then surprised. He instinctively felt that there must be something wrong here. From the first attack this morning, *  The firepower of the Japanese division's counterattack was significantly weakened, and Yano Otonzaburo felt something was wrong.

    Now we have received another report that the army of more than 300,000 people, coordinated with our own sea and air firepower, fought for six days and six nights with red eyes. However, the *** division troops who refused to give up an inch were just attacked by an ordinary attack.  He absolutely didn't believe that they were repelled across the board. It was too easy, too easy. There must be a huge conspiracy in this.

    Knowing that there must be a conspiracy, but what exactly this conspiracy is, this is a difficult problem. Lieutenant General Yano Otonzaburo almost scratched his hair and could not think of the source of the conspiracy. After hearing the news, the Kwantung Army divisions rushed to the headquarters  , brigade commanders, watching the commander in the room, circling back and forth like a donkey pulling a horse, sometimes frowning and glaring, sometimes gnashing teeth, sometimes smiling, they all stared at him extremely impatiently.

    There is no need to hesitate. The Chinese army was repulsed. After six days of bloody fighting, they could not withstand the casualties and the fierce firepower of the imperial army. They gave up their blocking positions and retreated. The Chinese army's Liuguhe defense line collapsed. The Chinese army  How panicked the retreat was. The small-scale annihilation battle that took place in the 17th Division clearly illustrates the problem. About one battalion of Chinese soldiers were surrounded in the Suizhong area and were eliminated on the spot after more than an hour of fighting.

    Finally, one of the most senior division commanders couldn't stand it any longer. This guy turned his head around and said in a conspiratorial tone: "I remind you that hesitation and loss of fighter opportunities are taboos for a commander. Don't forget  The mission given to us by the base camp and the general headquarters is to quickly move southward and approach Tianjin. "The words were full of contempt, like an elder teaching a junior what you should do.

    Lieutenant General Yano Otozaburo glared angrily at this guy who relied on his old age and turned red. Don't I know the mission?  Before I opened my eyes in the morning, I received a telegram from the General Staff Headquarters of the base camp and the Kwantung Army Headquarters, urging them to quickly break through the Liuguhe defense line of the *** Division and move south. The situation in Tianjin was critical and reinforcements were urgently needed.

    I also want to get to Tianjin as soon as possible. Don¡¯t I think there is a problem?  The good thing happened so suddenly, and it was abnormal. But he couldn't provide any evidence to convince these impatient generals. Everything was just his own guess and reasoning.

    At around one o'clock in the afternoon, telegrams from the base camp and the Kwantung Army Headquarters, and repeated urgings from his subordinate generals, plus the fact that the counterattack of the Japanese division troops did not arrive, overcame Yano Otonzaburo's inner doubts, and he finally issued the order.  , the entire army quickly crossed the Liugu River, advanced along the Jinzhou-Shanhaiguan highway, and advanced to the Shanhaiguan line. At the same time, the Kwantung Army Air Force was asked to send a large number of reconnaissance aircraft to detect all movements of the ** division troops along the way.

    Three hundred thousand Kwantung Army troops, a large number of artillery and baggage, turned the Liugu River into a mess. The Japanese forward troops finally appeared in the sight of the ** division scouts. After waiting for most of the day, the wait was not in vain. "Commander  "Headquarters, headquarters, Viper is dispatched, the vanguard force is about a regiment, artillery and baggage are crossing the river," the scout used code words to pass the news of the Kwantung Army's dispatch back to the headquarters.

    After receiving the report, Tang Qiuli let out a long breath. God, the Kwantung Army is finally here. "Order, all troops, enter combat status." After giving the order briefly, he immediately rushed to the headquarters of the main peak of Niuxin Mountain. Here  , overlooking the entire battlefield.

    At about five o'clock in the afternoon that day, at the end of the road in the east of Niuxin Mountain, dust was rising into the sky. A large group of Japanese soldiers appeared in Tang Qiuli's telescopic lens, getting more and more??, Tang Qiuli had a sneer on his lips, Hey, why did the Japanese army's march stop?
