Chapter 49
After persisting for three days, as the encirclement became smaller and smaller, Hatan Shigeichi was forced to cross the Yalu River and enter North Korea.
A day later, Hatan Shigeichi finally understood the reason why Lin Qiang surrounded him but refused to exterminate him.
He was surrounded.
It was not the Iron Blood Powerful Army, but the Korean Legion consisting of all North Koreans. Although it was wearing the same flag as the Iron Blood Powerful Army, there was no Chinese.
Holding a gun, charging, bayonets, and tactical actions are very standard.
But Hatan Shigeichi could tell at a glance that he was a recruit, a recruit who had never seen blood.
They can accurately shoot bullets into the deadly position of the Japanese army, and can stab the bayonet into the Japanese army's chamber with a standard piercing action. However, when the bullets enter the body, blood splashes, and when the bayonet is pulled out and bloodlines are splashed, and when the Japanese army struggles to death, they show a twisted expression of desire to survive. Their eyes will be frightened, their hands will be thrust, and even throw away their guns and cry at a loss...
The same was true when Hatan Shigeichi killed someone for the first time.
During the first attack, the Japanese army of the First Division easily killed all the new recruits who rushed up.
The second attack was even easier than the first time, and the recruits became soft when they saw the blood on the ground.
The third attack was still very easy, and the corpse was already half a meter high.
...
I don’t know how many attacks it was, but the Japanese army began to retreat because the new recruits were red in their eyes and rushed up to kill, kill, forgetting life and death, forgetting pain.
More and more Japanese soldiers began to shook their guns, and more and more Japanese soldiers began to retreat.
Blood flowed into a river, and corpses were everywhere.
The bloody and richness in the air makes people sick.
"Retreat!" Hatan Shigeichi finally issued an order, retreating to an unknown mountain, condescending to the heights. With the advantage of the terrain, more than a dozen heavy machine guns frantically sprayed flames downwards.
After the opponent attacked several times, he also retreated.
Hatan Shigeichi sat on a large stone and breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did he realize that his back was sweating profusely.
"General, we still have more than 30,000 people."
"Nani?" Hatan Shigeichi couldn't believe it. He brought more than 40,000 people across the Yalu River and entered the Heian Road. Now there are only more than 30,000 people left. Those new recruits who have never seen blood actually killed more than 10,000 veterans?
"General, we don't have much ammunition."
"I understand, go down, I want to be quiet." Hatan Shigeichi said calmly.
Forced him to enter North Korea to train these new recruits to train their courage, just as the Japanese army used civilians as living targets to train new recruits to practice bayonet fighting tactics.
Seeing Lin Qiang's true intentions clearly, Hatan Shigeichi's heart was calm, and it was nothing more than death. He was different from Mori Shigekuan. At the moment of joining the army, he was ready to return the body.
What Hatan Shinichi was worried about was what Lin Qiang wanted to recruit so many volunteer soldiers in North Korea.
After Japan occupied North Korea, it continuously transported North Korea's labor force to the country. In other occupied areas, such as the three northeastern provinces of China, the Koreans were like leeks, cutting one batch after another, and they could not finish it.
It would be terrible if it was really as he thought.
Hatan Shigeichi sat on the mountain all night. When a ray of sunlight shone on the mountain, many Japanese soldiers began to make fires and cook.
Hatan Shigeichi stood up, tidied up his military uniform, with a hint of determination on his face.
"General?"
"Order all officers above the second lieutenant to gather!"
"Hayi!"
...
All the First Division committed suicide!
The telegram sent by Li Yu was sent to Lin Qiang, and Lin Qiang smiled bitterly.
Hatan Shigeichi saw through his intentions.
This guy is really crazy!
I actually used this method to prevent the implementation of my plan.
"Generate power and order Kim Mucheng to station in North Korea. Li Yu leads the 1st and 2nd Korean troops into the territory from Dandong and joins our army. He tells Li Yu to restrain his subordinates and not disturb the people. If there is any violation, he will be convicted!"
Continuing to take charge is the rule that Lin Qiang set for the two North Korean legions.
If the soldiers violate, the whole class will be in charge; if the first class violates, the whole platoon will be in charge; if the first row violates, the whole platoon will be in charge...
After all the First Division died, Lin Qiang's plan to train troops was vain. He could only transfer two Korean legions into the Northeast and fight against the Kwantung Army. Only blood and fire could make people quickly become a qualified soldier. But Lin Qiang had to lock the Korean legion in a cage and not harm the Chinese people.
On the battlefield, soldiers fight timidly and kill squad leader; one squad fight timidly and kill platoon leader; one squad fight timidly and kill company commander... one squad fight timidly and kill Li Yu!
In Lin Qiang's eyes, the North Koreans are cannon fodder, a steady stream of cannon fodder.
Hatan Shigeichi saw through this point and chose to commit suicide, and he was unwilling to become the prey of Lin Qiang's training cannon fodder courage.
If Hatan Shigeichi was unwilling, it would naturally be difficult for Lin Qiang. There are still many Japanese troops in the northeast, and they can still train troops. The 6th Division and the 7th Division of the Kwantung Army are all good targets. The volunteer soldiers recruited from North Korea have never seen any blood, but they can come little by little, first to hit a gun tower, and a stronghold, and gradually I got used to it.
If it really doesn't work, Lin Qiang can also let the Wolf Warrior, Snow Eagle, and Snow Leopard Special Forces go out to capture Japanese prisoners and use them as live targets to train their courage.
The Japanese have done this before, and Lin Qiang is just a tooth for a tooth.
It is not enough to just pressurize, it will inevitably cause a rebound. Only by giving a sweet date can people be afraid of you and convinced you. Lin Qiang's methods are very simple, with four words, and the rewards and punishments are clearly distinguished.
Lin Qiang is never stingy about those who bravely kill the enemy, rewards, money and official positions, and rewards of the great achievements. It also requires many Koreans like Li Yu to govern the Korean Peninsula.
The rewards and punishments were clear, and the pressure was gentle. With Li Yu and Jin Mucheng, two outstanding Korean traitors, after the Korean army entered Dandong, there was no disturbance to the people. Instead, they learned from the Eighth Route Army to help the people work. When they went to the battlefield to leave Dandong, many people spontaneously gave away the people.
[Tomorrow, I will take the fourth subject exam. I haven’t practiced the slippers yet. Tomorrow, I will only have this update. I will try my best to sharpen my guns in the face of the battle. I will try my best to pass it. After getting my driver’s license, I will definitely write the slippers hard to compensate my brothers.]
