Chapter 480: The miracle has fallen!
After the Japanese bombed Tonghua Airport and Tonghua County, they reported in newspapers that they had destroyed the headquarters of the Chinese bandit army and all the planes robbed by the bandit army were blown up. Once this news came out, the Kwantung Army slightly saved some face.
After that, Dongzong also announced the news that the airport was bombed. For a moment, the Chinese people sighed with regret after experiencing the joys and sorrows of Liaoyang City's gains and losses, and they tried their best to sigh at the news that the planes that Dongzong had snatched back from the Japanese were completely lost at the airport!
Especially when the pilots of the Northeast Air Force learned the news, they were all sad and angry, and they wrote down blood, demanding that the Northeast fight to the end of the Japanese invaders!
Even Earl Leeton, the leader of the League of Nations Investigation Mission, expressed his regret for the flash in the pan of the young Air Force of the East Column!
Some people even commented that the "Falcon" operation of the Dongzong sneak attack on the Japanese airport was a miracle, but the miracle could not be continued and eventually failed.
They analyzed many reasons, one of which was that the commander of the East Column was an amateur in the Air Force. He didn't understand the Air Force at all, which led to this regrettable ending!
Some people also boldly predicted that perhaps the planes of the Dongzong were not all destroyed, and some were hidden.
But no one would believe that the Dongzong could pull the landed plane away and hide it in such a short time.
In the sky, an object as big as an airplane is simply a fixed target and has nowhere to hide!
Within more than a week after the Dongzong surprise attack on the airport, newspapers at home and abroad were reporting a series of reports. That was the miracle fell!
On the contrary, the hard battle between the Eastern League and the Japanese army was ignored!
"Report, the Japanese 9th Division entered Fengtian at 4:06 pm on the 17th, and then took over Fengtian's city defense!" Li Yunxin's crisp voice sounded behind Lu Shan.
Lu Shan did not move, put his left hand on his waist, his right hand slightly raised it, and a cigarette was stuck on his index and middle fingers, and it did not move. The cigarette butt was almost burning to his fingers.
"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu..." Li Yunxin called out twice.
"Hmm?" Lu Shan suddenly turned around, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Lu. Cigarette!" Li Yunxin said with a red face, pointing at the cigarette butts that had burned his fingers to the tips of Lu Shan's right index finger and middle finger.
"Oh?" Lu Shan suddenly felt a burning feeling and immediately threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, which was quite embarrassing.
"General Lu, the 9th Division has entered Fengtian!"
"when?"
"It was 4:06 pm on the 17th. That was an hour ago!" Li Yunxin said frankly.
"I understand, I'll report the news about the 9th Division right away!" Lu Shan nodded faintly.
"Yes!" Li Yunxin saluted and left.*1*1*1*
"Yunxin, how about it?" Seeing Li Yunxin returning to the communication room with the folder in her arms, the girls came over one by one!
"What's wrong, don't you have to do anything?" Li Yunxin glared and shouted.
"Tsk!" The girls immediately scattered, returned to their posts, and worked hard to fiddle with their machines, but their eyes still glanced at Li Yunxin from time to time.
"Yun Xin. Come in!" Li Yunxin curled her lips, and Xiao Xue's voice came from it.
"Yes, Director!"
The 9th Division is here, and the old Japanese devil, Kenji Ueda, has come. Didn’t he let one leg break? How could he still jump to the Northeast?
It’s less than two months after the kid’s amputation, so he came in a hurry. Aren’t he afraid of recurrence of the wound infection?
The Ninth Division had not joined the battlefield yet, which made Lu Shan temporarily relieved, but he knew that this was only temporary, and it depends on how the Kwantung Army Command used the Ninth Division!
However, judging from the current situation, the Kwantung Army is likely to implement a strategy of attacking the north and the south, which is what Lu Shan is most worried about!
He had transferred most of the troops from the Eastern Range to southern Liaoning, with fewer troops in the north and weaker combat power. Once the Ninth Division continues to head north, the Kwantung Army's strategy of attacking north and south must be a fact on the iron plate!
It really came to that point, and the consequences were unimaginable, so Lu Shan was very worried now. The Japanese army placed a division in each of his north and south, which was like the two pliers of a vise. It could clamp the screws with a little force. Whether he wanted to clamp it up or smash it, it all depends on the force in his hand.
The 14th Division has set up a formation in the south, attacking three routes, slamming east and west, and restraining the middle route. The strategy is very good, which makes the one-line snake formation set up by Lu Shan unable to play a real effect!
The only way is to break one or two of them, so that you can concentrate all your efforts against the last one.
The easiest thing to defeat was Liu Jingwen's Japanese and puppet coalition forces, but Liu Jingwen was very cunning. He knew very well that he was the weakest along the way. Even with the help of the Japanese army, he would not be able to defeat Deng Tiemei's defense.
So I adopted a procrastination strategy, that is, if you stay in Fengcheng, you will take the initiative to attack, I will take a step back, if you retreat, I will stick it on. This kind of braised candy tactic is very troublesome.
However, Liu Jingwen could not control the Japanese. The captain of the 59th Japanese Regiment, who was attacking with him, was an ambitious figure who attempted to make meritorious achievements!
Taking advantage of this, Deng Tiemei, Zhao Tong and others discussed and decided to take the risk of defeating once, so that the Japanese army could taste the sweetness once!
Deng Tiemei's plan was approved by Lei Dong, and he also reported it to Lu Shan. After Lu Shan considered it, he agreed to Deng Tiemei and others' plan!
The plan is very simple, which is to gradually reduce firepower, make a deck of insufficient ammunition, give up some positions, and induce the Japanese army to attack!
But this plan takes a certain amount of time, and the Japanese are not fools. They want to believe that the defenders of Fengcheng are indeed insufficient ammunition, and at least they have to strike back once, then shrink their defenses, and then gradually reduce ammunition supplies, creating the illusion of insufficient ammunition!
Deng Tiemei's plan also includes street fighting. Only when the Japanese army attacked the city can they have the opportunity to completely eliminate them. Therefore, the Japanese army must enter the city!
Lu Shan is waiting for news from Deng Tiemei. The plan has been implemented for the third day. I wonder if they still have closed the Internet!
Lu Shan is not a person who likes to interfere with his subordinates' commands, and he is not sure about the situation on the battlefield at such a long distance, but he requires the people below to repay the situation of the battle continuously. Whether it is good news or bad news, he must understand it in time.
Deng Tiemei and others felt that three days were enough to get the Japanese army to take the bait, because from the next day, they felt that the firepower of the Japanese army's attack had been significantly enhanced. Liu Jingwen's puppet army was forced to take the lead, and its combat effectiveness was exactly the same as before!
By noon on the third day, the Japanese army attacked Fengcheng fiercely and mobilized field artillery to bombard violently. The number of shells dropped was almost the sum of the previous few days.
The Japanese army's attack was stronger than the previous few days, and its troops increased exponentially. After discussing with Deng Tiemei, Zhao Tong, Miao Kexiu and others, they felt that the time was ripe and they could put the Japanese army in and attack!
At 130 p.m., the Japanese army attacked the city and then expanded the results of the battle. Deng Tiemei ordered the soldiers guarding the city to fight and retreat and enter the city.
The Japanese brigade captain immediately commanded his subordinates to rush into Fengcheng and fought fiercely for two hours. A small half of Fengcheng fell into the hands of the Japanese army.
The proud Japanese Grandmaster sent a telegram to his boss, the 59th Regiment captain, saying that they had captured Fengcheng!
The captain of the regiment, Colonel Banxi, immediately sent a congratulatory message and asked Major Komiya to report the results statistics report.
Because the battle continues, Major Komiya has no statistics on the results. He can only say that the results are counted first, and it will take some time to report it!
The Japanese were deceived, but Liu Jingwen was unwilling to be deceived. He understood Deng Tiemei and fought to this extent. Deng Tiemei and others were still holding on in the city, which was obviously a trap. But the Japanese did not believe his words, not only did they not believe them. They were also scolded as cowards by Major Komiya on the spot!
Liu Jingwen had no choice but to bite the bullet and lead the remaining thousands of people into Fengcheng.
Seeing that both the Japanese and Liu Jingwen were coming in, Deng Tiemei immediately ordered an attack. Zhao Dong's 306th regiment, which had already quietly moved outside the city, suddenly attacked the Japanese's back door, forming a clamping attack with Miao Kexiu's 305th regiment and Li Zhensan's 307th regiment in the city!
There are nearly two thousand people. Even if Deng Tiemei's 7th Brigade is twice as good as the enemy, it will not be a matter of time before he wants to eat it.
The battle lasted until eleven o'clock in the night, and the battle was basically over, but that was the case, the Japanese brigade headquarters and Liu Jingwen escaped.
They also took away nearly 300 defeated soldiers and soldiers!
The plan was successful, but it was not perfect. Lu Shan, who received this news, couldn't help but sigh. If it were the three main groups of the Eastern Zong, the Japanese army and the traitor Liu Jingwen would have no chance to escape!
Defeat all the way, which shocked everyone in the headquarters. The next thing to solve should be to capture the Second United Team and Matsuda Team that captured Dandong!
However, after careful consideration, Lu Shan felt that Deng Tiemei's 7th Brigade was not moving. Although the Japanese 2nd Regiment restrained the Fifth Brigade of Huang Yuxia, did Huang Yuxia also restrained the Second Regiment?
Lu Shan decided to let Deng Tiemei's 7th Brigade attack Xiuyan, and at the same time threatened the retreat of the 2nd Regiment and the 14th Division!
At the same time, Lu Shan sent people to contact Li Chunhua and Zhang Haitian, the volunteers of the southern Liaoning Army, and launched a raid in Haicheng, Yingkou and other places, destroying the Japanese railway line and preventing the Japanese ammunition supply from being delivered to the 14th Division in time!
Without ammunition supply, the elite 14th Japanese Division is equivalent to a tiger without teeth, which is equivalent to giving the East Column more time to prepare for war!
Yes, it means delaying time. If you can, you can delay as much as you can. If you delay for a day, the power of the Dongzong will be increased by one point.
Although the expansion was not expanded, the military training of the laid-off soldiers did not stop. A large part of them were excellent soldiers. However, due to the strength of the Dongzong at that time, there were too many troops but they had no combat effectiveness. Now these people can use it. The expansion was ready-made. Military cadres were appointed, numbers were given, and guns and ammunition could be given, and ten regiments could be drawn out immediately!
In fact, after the reorganization, Lu Shan formed twenty regiments in one go, namely the 110th Regiment of Agricultural Reclamation and the 110th Regiment of Construction. The organization was exactly the same as the active main regiment. Although they were sickles and hoes, etc., they were all quasi-militarized organizations.
These twenty regiments are organized under the Northern Group, and their branches are in Mengjiang, Changbai, Fusong, Helong, Longjing, etc., and on the one hand, they reclaim wasteland, plant crops, build factories and airports and other facilities, and on the other hand, they also have defense tasks!
As long as they are given guns and ammunition, they can immediately become troops.
Without such a construction corps, the Tumen and Ji'an airports could not be built and put into use in a short period of time. They were completely crowded with people.
Chapter completed!
