Chapter 308: Defeat and Appearance. ”
"But things have changed!" I saw that Chuikov pointed to the fierce air battle on the position opposite the headquarters, and said to these Soviet generals in a deep voice: "The enemy already has aviation units!" That is, they were able to attack our artillery positions without going through a ground offensive at all! ”
As he spoke, Chuikov took a deep breath and pointed to the point on the map and said in a deep voice to the group of generals: "Our artillery position is only a kilometer away from this, and it only takes more than ten minutes for the enemy's planes to pass!" But we think that the enemy has no planes, and we occupy their airspace, completely without any anti-aircraft firepower! In other words, once the enemy planes bomb or strafe, our artillery positions are nothing more than live targets that cannot be moved! Not even the ability to resist! ”
Actually, how could these commanders not understand Chuikov's words?! But no one wants to take responsibility for the defeat, and no one wants to accept the results of this withdrawal.
This is especially difficult for those of them who have just won a big victory!
Moreover, the object of their helpless withdrawal was the army that they had just annihilated tens of thousands of enemies with hundreds of casualties! How can they be willing?!
"Once these nearly eighty air groups cooperate with the attack, do you think our artillery positions will be able to hold it?!" Then I saw Chuikov whispering to these generals: "If we can't hold it, then our greatest advantage will be lost!" Even, we ourselves may encounter the fate of being surrounded and annihilated! ”
Listening to Chuikov's words, these generals couldn't help but be stunned! I saw a general hesitate and said to Chuikov: "No?!" After all, we have 40,000 troops, and as long as we hold out until the fleet comes, then we still have a chance to wipe out the enemy......"
Hearing this, he saw that Chuikov smiled coldly at the commander, and said in a deep voice: "The fleet of the Amur River region is now blocked out of Harbin, and if we fall into an encirclement, then what awaits them will be a siege!" We have lost artillery, as long as the enemy blocks our breakthrough with a certain amount of artillery, then we can only wait for death! ”
"And they can directly attack the fleet of the Amur region with the cooperation of artillery and aircraft! It seems that Chuikov's speculation is about to become a reality, but at this time they don't have time to think about it! Rushed out of the headquarters and ran towards his troops!
If the artillery positions are lost, they are really finished! Once the artillery unit is captured or destroyed by the enemy, then the result may even be the total annihilation!!
However, no matter how hard they try, it will still take time! And this plane with the roar of "woo ~ woo ......" suddenly hit the artillery position in the rear of the Soviet army!
After Blyukhel left, Chuikov adjusted the structure of the entire force. First of all, one corps of the escort artillery unit was transferred to a division, and then the rest of the troops were used as the vanguard.
A corps that was originally used as an escort artillery was deployed as a reserve to enter the battlefield at any time. Now this force is gathering with the rest of the troops and preparing to support the artillery positions in the rear!
"Chirp~Chirp~Chirp...... Rumble! Rumble!! Boom ......" At this moment, bursts of artillery roars came from the positions of the Northeast Army! With the roar of the artillery, the shells tore through the air and rained down on the Soviet positions!
A burst of explosions sounded, and the troops that the Soviet army was assembling were suddenly blown to pieces! The soldiers of the Soviet army were forced to disperse again into the tunnel, and the originally assembled team suddenly scattered!
But the artillery of the Northeast Army did not give up, and then began to extend the shelling of Bina! Constantly striking deeply at the deep positions of the Soviet army! The troops assembled in the rear were directly scattered by this shelling, and the soldiers each found cover to try to avoid the shelling!
But the Zhuyuan of this position of the Soviet army was originally marked by the artillery of the First Army, so it was very handy to strike! It's just that under a few rounds of shelling, the Soviet army is already full of corpses!
"Boom! Rumble!! Under the continuous shelling of the bombardment, the soldiers of the Far Eastern Army wailed and were torn to pieces by this crazy shell!...... The shattered corpse fell miserably to the battlefield, and countless stumps were lifted off by the explosion of air! With those fighters hovering over the Soviet positions, they continued to bomb and strafe the Soviet positions!
If anyone who is familiar with the Northeast Air Force is here, they will be able to recognize the origin of these soaring war eagles at a glance! Most of the warhawks in the Northeast Air Force are the planes made by the Northeast Army itself!
Those light fighters were the first batch of fighters made by the Northeast Army itself. The Northeast Air Force's own fighter is called the Liao F1 type, which absorbs some of the advantages of the German Fokker fighter and the French fighter, and is a biplane type, armed with two Lewis aviation machine guns.
And those who screamed and rushed to drop the bombs were the light bombers in the flying group, called the Liao FH1 type, which could carry four 50-kilogram aerial bombs.
Flying slightly higher from time to time bombing and machine gun fire support is the Northeast Army produced medium bombers, called Liao H1 type, this kind of bomber each bomber has two pilots, two machine guns, can carry four 100 kg of aerial bombs, the aircraft range is relatively long, is the Northeast self-made aircraft with the highest technical content, the price is expensive, manufacturing difficult, the Northeast Army is only made 10 only.
"Boom !!" I heard a loud bang! The shells piled up on the side were directly hit by the plane, triggering a martyrdom! The Soviet troops next to this shell pile were directly blown to pieces without even having time to scream! In the distance, many Soviet soldiers were directly cut open by the fragments of the shells, and they fell to the ground screaming!
After a ferocious burst of bombardment and strafing, the Soviet artillery positions had collapsed! Burning ammunition boxes and howling crowds were everywhere, and the guns that the Soviets were proud of fell to the ground!
"Long~Long~Long......" at this time! There was a sound of horses' hooves from the position, and with the sound of horses' hooves, it was visible to the naked eye that a team of thousands of horses was silently riding on a war horse and brandishing a saber towards the position!
"Enemy attack!! Get into position!! The commander of the Soviet army roared and shouted angrily at the soldiers under his command! Try to get into the position and stop this horse team with a point of fire!
But the planes hovering in the sky were not vegetarians, so they could see that they were diving at the assembled Soviet troops!
Under this almost one-sided slaughter, the Soviet army completely collapsed! The Soviet soldiers were crying and retreating to the rear of the position, but the horses and the soldiers who had occupied the position did not pursue them.
He returned to his newly occupied position and began to build and strengthen his position with his sapper shovel. At this time, I saw that a team of about seven or eight hundred people hurried to the position, and commanded the soldiers on the position to lift up the overturned artillery, and then checked that a few of them could be used continuously.
After it was determined, four or five soldiers were assigned to the side of the artillery, and the Zhuyuan adjusted the muzzle. All of this is done smoothly, without a trace of hindrance! Except for the shouts of the fight and the current voice of the conductor, almost no one is heard now.
The soldiers who died in battle had special soldiers to send them away. They were either sent to the doctor in the rear, or they were sent to a specific location in the woods for a while.
At this time, it was seen that more troops were entering the position one after another! Constantly filling in those vacant positions, light and heavy machine gun fire was built one by one, and the tunnel fortifications were constantly deepened and reinforced!
Boxes of grenades were brought to the positions and then distributed to the soldiers. The bullets of the battalion platoon were also distributed on the position, and the soldiers silently pressed the bullets and unscrewed the grenade caps around them to form the arquebus.
The artillery in the rear has adjusted all the artillery elements left by the Soviet army, and even the shells have been pressed into the chambers. At this time, a simple command tunnel had been dug in the small dirt slope behind the position, and the war radio station had been put up!
I saw a tall bearded man standing next to the radio station with a man who looked very much like a woman and was wearing the military uniform of the Northeast Army, and whispered to the telegraph soldier: "Send a report to the city of Harbin!" Let's just say that we have occupied the predetermined position! Request next instructions! ”
"Yes!" When the telegraph soldier heard this, he stood up and gave the man an extremely respectful military salute! Then he sat down and initiated the telegram of "drip~drip~~drip......".
Looking at these pilots in their prime, Tu Qianjun, who came to greet them, couldn't help but sigh with emotion!
In the early morning of August 19, 1931, the Dongta Airport in Mukden, which served as the Northeast Air Base, was subjected to an hour-long frenzied strafing fire.
To the surprise of the Japanese, there was not a single movement at this airfield, which was supposed to be a military fortification. When more than 100 Japanese soldiers rushed into the airport, all they saw was empty yellow earth with gunsmoke. The Japanese did not lose a single soldier, and the Northeast Air Force suffocated its own life under the confinement of the "doctrine of non-resistance."
From the incomplete historical records, it can be seen that the Northeast Air Force suffered extremely heavy losses: hundreds of planes, more than 40 sets of unopened and installed parts purchased from the Czech Republic, four or five engines, eight tanks, and a complete set of equipment from the attached factories...... All fell into the hands of the enemy.
The pilots who had dispersed gathered one after another at the former Northeast Air Force Headquarters in Beiping.
Three or four months later, together with the 12 planes that remained in the Guannei in Pingding, all of them were transferred to the Nanjing government. However, the distinction between lineage and miscellaneous cards that someone is accustomed to has finally driven away some pilots.
Except for the sixty or seventy people who stayed behind, including Gao Zhihang, Sun Zhonghua, and Yang Xianglin, who went to Nanjing and were used by the pitiful salary reduction and demotion, the rest went their own way: Zhang Niansco and other six or seven people went to the northwest and voted for Sheng Shicai; Two others went to Sichuan and voted for Liu Xiang; More than 10 people, including the former deputy commander Xu Shiying, were discouraged and simply stayed in Beiping.
Although Gao Zhihang was regarded as a hero after his death, many people do not know that he went to the senior class of the Jianqiao Central Aviation School in Hangzhou for short-term training, and after graduation, he was excluded because of his status in the Northeast Army, and was reduced to only a second lieutenant in the Air Force without the qualification to fly alone.
Of course, what will not be recorded is that the death of this hero has an inexplicable relationship with the nephew of someone's wife, a high-ranking official who joined the military aviation industry after graduating from the third phase of the Whampoa Military Academy.
Ironically, however, the leader and guide of the later operation to capture the Mukden East Tower airfield was Lei Geng, a Japanese instructor who had taught in the Northeast Air Force.
From the day the Northeast Air Force was born, the Japanese have closely watched the growth of this force with great "enthusiasm."
In 1929, in order to grasp the situation of the Northeast Air Force, Japan sent two captains, two lieutenants and two sergeants to penetrate the Northeast Air Force in the name of serving as instructors. This Lei Geng is one of them.
These spies, named Teach, were actually spying on the military, and after two years they finally got into trouble! A knife stabbed the heart of the Northeast Air Force, extremely deadly!
Of course, none of this has happened yet. These war eagles are now in high spirits, and after getting off the plane, they gathered together and walked in front of Tu Qianjun!
"Lizheng~~ Take a break!" I saw a man about forty years old who led the team roaring angrily at the group of dozens of war eagles gathered, and then solemnly trotted in front of Tu Qianjun and said in a deep voice: "Report! The first, second, and third divisions of the Northeast Frontier Army Flight Corps of the National Revolutionary Army report to the commander! Please show me the sir! ”
Tu Qianjun smiled when he heard this, put away his thoughts, calmly approached the several pilots who looked at him reverently after getting off the plane, and solemnly gave them a military salute!
"Everyone's hard work! On behalf of all the officers and men of the First Army, I would like to thank you for your great support! I saw Tu Qianjun saying in a deep voice to these war eagles who gathered around him after getting off the plane: "Thank you for risking your lives to help!" ”
These pilots were all seeing Tu Qianjun for the first time, and they had heard of this young commander who had annihilated a division of the Japanese army in the Battle of Jinan! But it's the first time I've seen a real person!
I saw these war eagles looking at Tu Qianjun with that blazing eye, and roared in unison: "Fight for the country!" Don't dare to say bitter! Shroud of the Battlefield! My heart! ”
Tu Qianjun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words of these war eagles! This was obviously rehearsed in advance by these warhawks, otherwise how could it be said so smoothly?!
