Wang Guangyu, the middle block mission, did not set the first-line blocking position on the bank of the Songhua River, which has always been regarded as a natural barrier. Instead, the first line was set up about two kilometers north of the outer embankment of the Songhua River, behind a naturally formed soil ridge on both sides of the Jiamusi-Heli road.

The location of this soil ridge is very special, due to the obstruction of the outer embankment on the north bank, the Japanese army cannot see it at all on the south bank of the river. Similarly, even if the Japanese army has crossed the river, it will not be visible without crossing the outer embankment of the Songhua River.

However, although you cannot see the movements of the Japanese troops in the embankment, you can clearly observe most of the movements of the Japanese troops on the south bank. Moreover, there is a 2,000-meter open area between it and the outer embankment on the north bank, and if the Japanese troops who have crossed the Songhua River want to continue to expand northward, its extremely wide firing range just covers the road tightly.

Wang Guangyu took a fancy to this place at a glance when he arrived on the other side of Jiamusi. Not only is the location excellent, but the most important thing is that this ridge is about ten meters high, and it is also covered with dense bushes and willows. Behind is a large birch forest and a vast expanse of green gauze tents that are almost as tall as a person. It can provide a natural concealment for the blocking force. At that moment, Wang Guangyu decided to use the natural terrain here to set a trap for the devil.

I don't know if Wada Takashi and Dazuo were lucky or unlucky, after the Jing'an Division crossed the river, he suddenly had a whim, ignoring the resolute opposition of the commander of the first division of the Jing'an Army, Misaki Zhanghei, and forced the first regiment of the Jing'an Army to take over his unit as the outpost of the entire Japanese army.

According to his ideas, the Jing'an Army performed an excellent job in the operation of the Central China Dispatch Army of the Japanese Army against the southern part of the China River, defeating the Sichuan Army, which had always been known for its tenacity among the government forces in China, and now it is not a problem to deal with these bandits. What's more, having these Manchurians rushing to the front line for the imperial army can greatly reduce the casualties of the imperial army.

It's just that he didn't think that the Sichuan army, which was defeated by the Jing'an Army at that time, was said to be a division, but the actual strength was less than a battalion. Its Sichuan-made single rifle, only a few light and heavy machine guns, and not even the small mortars used by the Sichuan army, there is no single weapon and equipment, and it is simply unable to compare with the Jing'an Army, which is fully armed with Japanese weapons and infantry artillery and cavalry.

Moreover, the Jing'an Army at that time was formed by the so-called young people in the countryside in Japan, and they were all authentic Japanese from top to bottom. With the exception of the officers at or above the middle level, who are still Japanese, the officers and soldiers at the lower grassroots level are all so-called Manchurians, at least in terms of loyalty, they cannot be compared at all.

As early as after the Battle of Wuhan last year, the Japanese base camp of the Japanese army, which was somewhat lacking in qualified soldiers, had already been incorporated into the regular Japanese army units and pulled to fight in Guannai. Although the current Jing'an Army still bears the same name, it is no longer comparable with before.

Looking at Wada Takashi's arrogant face, before serving as the commander of the First Division of the Jing'an Army, Misaki Zhanghei, who was only a reserve lieutenant of the Japanese army, knew that he, a major general of the Manchukuo Army, could not help this active Japanese army. Although they are both Japanese, there is a difference between Japanese and Japanese.

After several warnings were ineffective and Wada Takashi insisted on his own decision, Misaki Zhanghei, who knew that his subordinates had been transferred from Fujin to Jiamusi to participate in the war, had shown signs of instability, and said helplessly to Wada Takashi and Dazuo: "Watianjun, the current Jing'an Army is not the Jing'an Army formed by the young people in the empire the year before last. ”

"Now, except for a small number of middle and high-ranking officers, the officers and soldiers at the lower level have long been replaced by Manchurians. It is no longer the same as the previous Jing'an Army. Exactly how much loyalty there is has not yet been tested. You are going to have an accident if you rush to push them to the front line so rashly. ”

Regarding Misaki Zhanghei's bitter persuasion, Wada Takashi didn't listen to it at all. Regarding Misaki Zhanghei's last warnings, Wada Takashi and Osa said even more arrogantly: "If they rebel and change for the better, it just so happens that I will clean them up together." The bullshit Manchurians are not inferior Shina people. ”

"What kind of Manchukuo was established by the protection of the bayonets of the Imperial Japanese Army. Now the Imperial Army has dispatched elite divisions, also to suppress bandits in Manchukuo for them. If they dared to serve the Imperial Army without knowing how to repay them, they would have died a long time ago. The empire is not a garbage dump, and all troops are collected. ”

Wada Takahe's arrogance and contempt for the puppet Manchu army made Misaki very annoyed. However, neither the annoyed Misaki Shohei nor the arrogant Wada Takashi did not expect that the regiment of the Jing'an Army, which was forced by him to switch marching sequences with him, except for the regiment commander and the two battalion commanders, the rest of the company and platoon officers, including a battalion commander, was already a Manchurian regiment, and as early as when he was just transferred to Jiangnan to serve as a defense, Li Qing, the only so-called Manchurian among the three battalion commanders, and Yang Dongliang, the interpreter, had secretly contacted Jiangbei.

If it weren't for the fact that after the bombardment of the airport, for fear that someone in the Manchukuo army would collude with Jiangbei, General Umezu Mijiro strengthened his supervision of the puppet Manchu army and collected all the ferries on the south bank of the river and handed them over to the Japanese army in unified management.

Wa Tian Long and Dazuo transferred Li Qing's regiment forward to replace his own troops, although it was somewhat clear that the Jing'an army would be used as scavengers for them, but it was in line with Li Qing and Yang Dongliang, who had already made up their minds to defect to Jiangbei. As for the Japanese officers in the unit, as well as several unreliable company and platoon commanders, they had already been arranged by Li Qing to take care of their henchmen.

When the vanguard battalion led by Li Qing had arrived less than 100 meters in front of Wang Guangyu's position, Wang Guangyu, who had already received a notice from the headquarters, did not give the order to open fire, but immediately ordered the troops to make way for the gap on both sides.

After crossing the soil ridge, Li Qing, who had no way to retreat, raised the pistol in his hand and fired three shots into the sky as an order to do it. After receiving his order, he had already secretly arranged for the regiment commander to work with the people around the Japanese officers, and killed several Japanese officers and several hardcore traitors.

After finishing this qiē, Li Qing turned to most of the people in the army who still didn't know why: "Brothers, the little devils have asked us to fight our own compatriots for the dead ghosts more than once, and we have done many immoral things for them before. Now we can no longer work for them and slaughter our own people. ”

"Now Lao Tzu is anyway, if you want to go with Lao Tzu, just go. If you don't leave, when the war is over, the Anti-Japanese Federation will send you a passage fee to let everyone go home. Those who stay to participate in the Anti-Resistance League will be guaranteed that they will not be blamed for the past. ”

Looking at the muzzle of the black hole pointed at him by the anti-union that came up around him, even people with different opinions did not dare to have any opinions. After unloading the bolt of the weapon in his hand according to the order, he followed and walked to the rear.

I didn't know the details at all, seeing that Li Qing crossed the soil ridge that was most likely to have an ambush without firing a single shot from the vanguard group, Wada Takashi and Dazuo proudly touched the neatly trimmed snot beard, looked at Misaki Zhangpei beside him, waved his hand, and immediately followed with the follow-up troops.

It's just that when a brigade in the vanguard had just walked to a distance of less than 200 meters from Tu Ling, Tu Ling, which had just been silent like gold, suddenly changed its shape and suddenly burst out in a dense rain of bullets. Light and heavy machine gun bullets with a large number of mortar shells and infantry shells were sprinkled like water on the unsuspecting Japanese troops.

Before the Japanese puppet troops of the 89th Wing and the remaining regiment of the 1st Division of the Jing'an Army could react, the explosion of artillery shells was heard almost at the same time in the direction of the south bank of the Songhua River behind them. Takashi Watada's first thought after encountering the blows from front to back was that he had encountered a large number of anti-Japanese armed attacks.

At a distance of two hundred meters, it is almost the optimal range for light and heavy machine guns with a large number of opponents. With the cooperation of the only remaining infantry regiment of the Jing'an Army, the Japanese army led a brigade, and it did not take long for the entire infantry squadron to be reimbursed on the spot under the rain of machine gun bullets and mortar bombardment.

The Jing'an Army was even more unfortunate, and the strength of a regiment was scattered on the spot by a burst of mortar shells. Perhaps it was resentment at these guys who willingly acted as Japanese lackeys, on whom the mortar fire of the opponents was mainly concentrated.

The tongue of fire that was bubbling everywhere became the nightmare of almost all the officers and men of the First Brigade of the 89th Wing. The crazy Wada Takashi organized several Japanese attacks, but they were all knocked down by the opponent's firepower. I didn't even touch the edge of the opponent's position. Only once, at great cost, did it break through to a distance of less than fifty meters.

Just when the Japanese soldiers, who had already seen the face of the opponent's machine gun shooter, were ready to completely defeat the opponent at one time, they were bombarded back by an opponent's weapon that shot countless steel balls after an explosion at a distance of fifty meters.

During the retreat, the panicked Japanese army fell into a small but dense mine formation. By the time one of the attacking Japanese squadrons had withdrawn, only three men remained.

Several attacks did not achieve half a point, but he lost a whole and a half infantry brigade in a daze, so that although the always confident Wada Takane Daisaku was like a mad dog, almost every squadron leader who was still alive was slapped by him. Although the thunderstorm was like thunder, Wada Takashi, who had suffered enough, did not dare to attack rashly. That's when I got the call back to General Umezu Mijiro.

When Lieutenant General Nemoto rushed to the front-line Japanese position, he was gasped by the scene in front of him. From that soil ridge to the starting position of the 89th Wing's attack, it was only a few hundred meters away, and there were layers of Japanese puppet army corpses everywhere. The blood that flowed from the corpse merged into a small red river that was very striking and flowed slowly.

The painful groans of the dozens of wounded soldiers who remained on the front line and could not be withdrawn made the morale of the follow-up troops extremely low. Under the enemy's dense machine-gun fire, no one could save these wounded soldiers. I can only watch them move towards their final death with a little bit of blood.

He successively participated in the North China operation and the Guangzhou attack as the commander of the infantry wing, the deputy chief of staff of the North China Front, and the chief of staff of the 21st Army, but it was the first time he saw the miserable appearance of the imperial army in front of him.

Corporal punishment, especially slapping, was generally used in the Japanese army as a form of punishment for junior officers at the middle and senior levels, or for new recruits by veterans. It is not the first time that a dignified division commander slapped a captain of the Dazuo Wing in front of everyone, but it is also extremely rare.

Lieutenant General Nehiro, who had beaten his hands in the red, did not relieve his anger, and angrily scolded Takashi Wada and Osa again, and then asked General Umezu Mijiro, who had to go to Jiangnan, to make a detailed report on the situation here, and asked Jiangnan to provide fire support and a large number of aviation cover.

To the request of Hiroshi Nemoto, his old colleague in the North China Front, Umezu Mijiro replied very simply. The artillery wing directly under the 24th Division, which had been staying in the south of the Yangtze River, was directly transported across the river at the fastest speed. At the same time, the 61st Squadron, which was bombing a strategically valuable target in Luobei, was ordered to immediately transfer the target.

In order to make a breakthrough as much as possible, a large number of bombers mobilized by the Japanese army carried out carpet bombing, using a large number of explosive bombs and incendiary bombs to bomb this several kilometers long earth ridge several times, and also used 24 75-mm mountain guns of a whole mountain artillery company to blow up from the outer embankment on the north bank of the Songhua River to the soil ridge, in an attempt to sweep away all the mines laid by the opponent with artillery fire.

In the words of Lieutenant General Iimura, this time not even a single ant was left on the north bank of the river, and the fire cover was completed. Under the persecution of Lieutenant General Nemoto, the bruised nose and swollen face of the beaten, he personally led the 89th Wing to personally launch a charge.

In fact, the Japanese army did not have this need to mobilize the army at all. Wang Guangyu, who tore off a piece of meat under the nose of Umezu Mijiro, had already accepted it when he saw it. When Genbo arrived at the position of the 89th Wing, Wang Guangyu had already led his troops to retreat to the preset second blocking position under the cover of the green gauze tent, that is, a mangang three kilometers behind this soil ridge.

Wang Guangyu is not stupid, but in front of him is an integrated division of the Japanese army. And here he has only one reinforced battalion, at most plus a dozen heavy machine-gun companies specially drawn from the rest of the troops in order to strengthen the firepower, as well as two regimental mortar companies.

However, in order to confuse the Japanese army, Wang Guangyu used the strength of an infantry regiment on the first night before the arrival of the Japanese army, and built enough fortifications on this soil ridge to use enough for 10,000 people.

Therefore, in the extraordinary equipment of light and heavy machine guns and mortars, plus a 150-millimeter howitzer company that used almost all the horses pulled by his first brigade, and a multiple rocket launcher company reinforced by Yang Zhen, the Japanese army gave the impression that Yang Zhen's main force was here.
