Age of Rebirth

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

Even within the military circle, Nanjiro is not famous for his outstanding military talents, but has retained his current high position with his superb political skills. rudder.

The base camp actually uses this kind of person to serve as the supreme commander of the Kwantung Army. The situation in Manchuria will only get worse. It is just a joke. When I return to the mainland, I must appeal.

Nobuyoshi Muto did not get a chance. Not long after he returned to Japan, because of repeated defeats in Manchuria, the situation became rotten. The Kwantung Army shouted and killed. Withdrew from the military, the glory is no longer, but escaped the harsh trial of the Far East military court after World War II. [

And Nanjiro did not make the situation in Manchuria worse as he estimated. This old devil made full use of his own advantages and used various means to focus on military encirclement and suppression, and to recruit, divide, and lure him. Auxiliary, the main force is used to encircle and suppress the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, and for other anti-Japanese armed forces, the means are not used to the extreme.

The anti-Japanese situation in the Northeast entered the most difficult stage and fell into a low ebb. During his tenure as the supreme commander of the Kwantung Army, the anti-Japanese armed forces in the Northeast dropped from more than 5000 at the beginning to more than 3000 in the end.

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

During the conversation with Nobuyoshi Muto, Nanjiro did not get any valuable information, and Nobuyoshi Muto didn't even have the most basic information about this so-called bloody hand group, which made Nanjiro full of contempt for Nobuyoshi Muto.

He is just a savvy warrior, his failure is inevitable, he does not understand that in the land of Manchuria, military strikes and political means 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, 10,000+ troops are like throwing a few stones into the sea.

After Nobuyoshi Muto left sadly, he immediately sent an urgent telegram to the base camp. In addition to enumerating Nobuyoshi Muto's mistakes, the most important thing was to request an increase in troops from the mainland to Manchuria, at least four divisions, more than 15 people.

Then, he started to solve the Dongman issue. He did not immediately mobilize the main force of the Kwantung Army on the front line of Ximan and Andong like Muto Nobuyoshi, but held several military meetings at the level of regimental commanders and above.

In addition to reviewing past military defeats, through the comprehensive reflections of devil officers at all levels, his chief of staff, Lieutenant General Nishio Shuzo, summed up the combat characteristics of the Bloody Hand Regiment. In every battle, we must use an absolute superior force to encircle and wipe out our prominent Kanto Army troops, and the firepower is extremely fierce, good at long-distance raids, attacking my weak links.

Not to mention, Nishio built this old devil, his military quality made up for Nanjiro's weakness, and the few points he summed up are generally reliable.

Later, Nanjiro merged all the secret agents and intelligence agencies in Manchuria to form the Kwantung Army Intelligence Headquarters to command the intelligence work in Manchuria in a unified manner, extend its tentacles to every corner of the Northeast, and try its best to collect all the information about the Bloody Hands. intelligence.

Tang Qiuli, who was training the troops in Mudanjiang, didn't know his opponent. Neither the hand group nor the intelligence network of the CCP’s Manchuria Provincial Committee found this major change.

He is planning a larger military operation. Taking advantage of all the mobile forces of the devils, he is still staying on the front line of Ximan and Andong, and the troops in other areas are empty. Changchun City).

Now that I have more than 2 troops in my hands, I fully have this strength. Taking advantage of the devil's command organization, I haven't figured out the next move of the blood hand group, so I will beat him hard again.

After the battle plan was finalized, he ordered the various units of the special detachment operating around Xinjing to try their best to collect all the information on Xinjing. military intelligence.

Three days later, the second, third, fourth and cavalry detachments, artillery detachments, and special detachments of the Blood Hand Regiment, with a total strength of more than 3000 people, left the Mudanjiang area and rushed to the outskirts of Xinjing.

A team returned to the base for repairs due to excessive battle wear and tear, and at the same time took on the task of training recruits. The recruits recruited from Anton, plus the recruits recruited in the East Manchurian campaign, now the total number of recruits trained at the base has reached There are more than 4000 people, which is a great pressure on the training of recruits at the base.

For the sake of confidentiality, the troop's combat objectives are only conveyed to the captain level. Ordinary soldiers don't know where to fight, but their emotions are very high. There are more than 2 people, and they are afraid of little devils !

The troops crossed the Zhangguangcai Mountains, crossed the Songhua River and the Yinma River. Along the way, they uprooted the Japanese and puppet strongholds. This kind of momentum is what they want. After five days, they arrived at the outskirts of Xinjing.

At this time, Xinjing is already in a panic. Ever since Nobuyoshi Muto dispatched all mobile forces from various places in order to encircle the main force of the Bloody Hand Regiment, in Xinjing now, there is only the devil Xinjing garrison team to strengthen the regiment. , there are about 5000 people, and there are about [-] troops from the Capital Division of the Puppet Manchukuo. [

The rest is the Japanese military police headquarters, which has two military police brigades under its jurisdiction, with a strength of about 800 people, and the rest is armed with police and secret agents.

Nanjiro and Nishio Shuzao, who were nervously planning to restore law and order in East Manchuria, did not expect that the Bloody Hands would do this. They were so anxious that they were about to vomit blood. What kind of place is Xinjing? Symbolically, the main force is still in the Anton area, and even if they grow wings, it will be too late.

The sudden move of the Bloody Hands was not only unexpected by the old devil Nanjiro, but also disrupted Nanjiro's overall deployment. He did not expect that Bloody Qiuli would have such a bold move to attack Manchuria 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 spare no effort to reinforce Xinjing at all costs, Nanjiro also negotiated with the commander of the Kwantung Army Air Force , Send planes to support the Xinjing front.

This is exactly what Tang Qiuli hoped. Originally, the purpose of attacking Xinjing was to attract devils from all over the world to come for reinforcements, so as to achieve the goal of eliminating the devils' vitality. Otherwise, they would not attack Xinjing with great fanfare.

Fight Xinjing if it can be defeated, and attack the surrounding small towns if it cannot be defeated. In short, the battle of Xinjing this time is to eliminate the devil's vitality, and at the same time, cause greater political influence and disrupt the deployment of the devil. It was Tang Qiuli before the troops set off.A word to commanders at all levels.

The reinforcements from all walks of life were originally relatively small. The two largest groups of devils came from Jilin and Gongzhuling for reinforcements, each with more than 2000 people. Under Nanjiro's strict orders, they marched desperately towards Xinjing. .

On the way, they entered the ambush circle that the Blood Hands had already set up. After a fierce artillery fire, the overwhelmingly superior forces were concentrated. In less than four hours, more than 4000 devils were wiped out.

The other devils who reinforced Xinjing also met the same fate. After Su Jingfeng came back, he was still very dissatisfied, and swallowed it in one gulp. Before he could taste the taste, the little devils were all finished. enjoyable.

After clearing away all the reinforcements from the devils, the troops surrounded Xinjing. The cities in the northeast, due to their late establishment, almost had no city walls. This is not like in the pass. All larger cities have ancient city walls. It caused great difficulties to the attacking troops.

Apart from the fact that Xinjing has no city walls, its city defense system is almost blank, because this is the capital of Manchukuo, and even the senior commander of the devil did not expect that there would be anti-Japanese armed forces daring to attack the capital.

The captain of the devil's Xinjing garrison team, Toshida Yoshio, had a bitter mouth. Last year, he finally spent a lot of money and took advantage of his wife's body to get a good job in the base camp, and came to Xinjing as the city defense commander.

This place is really good. You don’t need to go to the front to fight the Anti-Japanese Alliance. The Kwantung Army headquarters is in Fengtian, which is far away. On this ground, I, Yoshio Toshida, is the emperor.

Don't think that there is Pu Yi, Emperor Kant of Manchukuo, here, it's just a decoration, and I have the final say on everything. The officials of Manchukuo, big and small, are very filial. In less than a year, they not only earned back their capital, He also got a few concubines, these days, gods!

But I don't know how to fight against the anti-Japanese armed forces that came out, and there are still so many soldiers. Then look at the soldiers under my own hands. They are either children of rich families, or rely on connections to come here to be gilded and enjoy the blessings , They are all young masters.

None of them went to the front line to fight, and they usually bullied and bullied the people of Manchuria.

According to Toshida Yoshio, all the troops withdrew from Xinjing and moved closer to Harbin, so as not to be wiped out by the anti-Japanese armed forces. As for the emperor, if he is willing to follow, then take it with him. Take it easy!

But looking at the telegram in his hand, how could he dare? In the telegram, Commander Nanjiro only said a few words: "Stick to Xinjing, if it is lost, he will be shot with his own hands!"

No way, Yoshio Toshida, who had never fought at all, hurriedly held a joint meeting. After that, all the armed forces that could be mobilized were all caught up with the fortifications outside Xinjing. The Chinese armed forces did not attack immediately, otherwise, even this shallow ditch would not be completed in time.

Yoshio Toshida stood on a commanding height, observing the situation with a telescope in his hand. When his lens turned to the southeast of Xinjing, his face was pale and beads of sweat dripped from his head.
