Yi Liangpin did not intend to catch big fish as a prisoner, except that he did not want to be held hostile because of the possible stubborn resistance of the Japanese army. 【. com text] caused too many casualties in addition. There is a more important reason, that is, before the detour, the personal guard who received No. 1 once found him alone, and the No. 1 conveyed was a top-secret order arranged by Yang Zhen himself, which could only be conveyed verbally.

Yang Zhen's order is very simple, there is no nonsense, and the focus is only one thing. That is, for this Sixth Division, not a single prisoner, not even the highest level of prisoners.

The meaning of this sentence is self-evident, that is, all officers, large and small, including the commanders of their lieutenant generals and divisions, and all officers and soldiers, not a single one will live after the battle. And when cleaning up the battlefield, all the photos on the corpses of the Japanese soldiers were collected, and not a single one was left behind.

The personal guard of No. 1 warned him again and again that this order was to be communicated verbally only, and that no written order was to be formed. At the same time, it was emphasized that this order was not only for them, but also for all commanders at and above the regimental level who were about to be put into operations against the Sixth Division.

Yi Liangpin, who had just been educated for many years of preferential treatment of prisoners, was still very disgusted by this top-secret order. But after defeating the two squadrons deployed by the Japanese army on the southern front, and seeing the photos of the accompanying staff of the Military Region Intelligence Department from those corpses, Yi Liangpin acquiesced to Yang Zhen's order that violated discipline and violated morality in his opinion.

The scene in the photo of those bloody flesh and blood compatriots being slaughtered like pigs and dogs, and their own sisters and compatriots being randomly abused like prostitutes and photographed. Even if he has been in battle for a long time and his heart is extremely strong, he was terrified for a while when he saw it, and at the same time, the humiliation and pain in his heart were intertwined.

And the Zhonghua Gate, a landmark building in Nanjing, shown in a photo, was unmistakably told him by the brigade political commissar that this was Nanjing, the capital of China. The landmark buildings of Nanjing in these photos clearly tell him that these are the atrocities committed by the Sixth Division against the common people there after the capture of Nanjing.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, except that those veterans who had participated in the Battle of Nanjing carried with them a large number of photographs taken by themselves. Among the two squadrons that Yi Liangpin knocked out were a sizable number of non-combatants, including several press censors and war photographers from the Sixth Division.

Those photographers who participated in the Battle of Nanjing, in order to publicize the so-called imperial army's might, took a large number of photos of the massacre. And those press censors also had a large number of confiscated photos taken by the officers and soldiers themselves. At this time, almost all of these photos were seized intact by Yi Liangpin.

Although he had already heard about the atrocities of the Japanese army after the capture of Nanjing, he had already heard about it as early as his time in Guannai. But after all, he was not in Nanjing at the time, and he did not really feel this kind of atrocity of openly slaughtering the city. After seeing these photos today, he deeply realized what it means to be inferior to beasts, and heaven and man are angry.

After Yi Liangpin seized these photos, he didn't say a word, but silently circulated these photos to the cadres above the company level and said: "You should know what to do to treat a beast army like this and slaughter countless of my flesh and blood compatriots. ”

In fact, Yi Liangpin never imagined that these photos would have such a big impact on the morale of the troops who were already exhausted after a long journey. When the blood on these photos spread throughout the troops, the morale of the entire Fifth Brigade roundabout troops can be said to have reached its peak. Everyone is gearing up to use the heads of these beast armies to pay tribute to the compatriots who died in Nanjing.

As for the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Division in front of them, whether they were the ones who slaughtered the city in Nanjing back then, no one thinks about it. Under the pretext of educating the troops not to forget the national shame, strengthen national pride, and enhance national self-confidence, Yang Zhen desperately instilled the anti-Japanese theory in disguise, and in addition to the suffering of most of the people themselves, the whole army was originally full of bitter hatred for the Japanese.

After seeing these photos again, the hatred for the Japanese in the hearts of almost all the officers and men of the whole army was completely aroused, and the battle was fought heartily. Not a single person in the whole army flinched, and the soldiers who died fell on the way to the charge, and not a single one flinched. Let the little devil see what is called the bloody nature and decisive spirit of the Chinese.

In fact, Yi Liangpin's guess was not wrong, the headquarters of the Sixth Division not only had the golden version of the big fish of Machijiri Liangji, but also another big fish. Not only is there another big fish, but the identity of this big fish is quite not low, it is the dignified Kwantung Army's Fifth Army Major General Chief of Staff Tasaka Shinichi.

After receiving a telegram from Machijiri Mitsuki, half threatening and half pleading, Shigeichi Habata was shocked to find the Sixth Division at its exhaustion. He knew that the Sixth Division was besieged by the opponent's superior strength and firepower, but he was quite surprised and shocked that the Sixth Division had fallen into such a situation in just one day.

In order to extricate the 6th Division from its predicament, Hatada Shigeichi urgently dispatched a reinforced wing from the 29th Division to reinforce the 6th Division from Muling via the starry night in Ning'an, in addition to the fact that all the divisions and regiments on the front line had already been engaged in the battle and could not be reinforced.

Half an hour after the artillery fire in southern Yilan resounded, Major General Tanaka, chief of staff of the Fifth Army, immediately took a small plane with a short take-off and landing distance to the headquarters of the Sixth Division to find out whether the Sixth Division was really exhausted.

To not Habata Shigeichi did not believe in the town jiri and the 6th Division. However, at present, although several divisions and regiments appear to be fighting separately on the surface, they actually play a role in coordinating with each other. Regardless of whether the 6th Division was completely annihilated or retreated southward, it was bound to cause the entire Japanese defense line to be shaken. The severity of the matter made him have to act cautiously.

With their arms unable to twist their thighs, the Japanese air force stationed in Muling, which had just begun its night flight training and had hardly any navigation facilities, could only take the risk of transferring a Type 98 reconnaissance plane with the best performance and a best pilot to transport His Excellency the hapless chief of staff to the headquarters of the 6th Division in Youjiagou overnight.

Fortunately, this pilot is indeed extremely skilled, and because he had conducted reconnaissance in this area a few days ago, he is relatively familiar with the terrain in this area. Knowing that the highest mountainous area in this area was about six or seven hundred meters, he had been flying at an altitude of eight hundred meters and arrived at the headquarters of the Sixth Division safely.

It's just that when it landed, although Machijiri Liangji concentrated all the cars of the division headquarters and two mobile searchlights to illuminate the plane. However, despite the pilot's best efforts, the Type 98 reconnaissance plane almost did not hit the mountain because the take-off and landing distance was too short.

After getting off the plane, Major General Tanaka, who had palpitations and almost went to the west, made the first decision was to go back after dawn tomorrow morning. As for tonight's killing, I'm not flying on this damn plane. He is the chief of staff of the major general, not those 6th Army birds.

Tasaka, who was frightened, didn't know that it was his decision that killed him. While he and Machijiri were studying the next battle plan of the Sixth Division and how to get the Sixth Division out of trouble, Yi Liangpin and the vanguard battalion had already rushed to the outskirts of Yujiagou and deployed three mountain guns at a distance of one kilometer from them in the shortest possible time.

Originally, before the arrival of Major General Tanaka Shinichi, Machijiri Rikuki placed a cordon at a distance of two kilometers from the periphery in order to protect the safety of the division headquarters. But upon hearing that the Chief of Staff of the Major General had proposed upon his arrival that the plane should be protected, and that His Excellency the Division Commander and I would take him back to the Corps Headquarters tomorrow if necessary to report to His Excellency the Commander, the Chief of Staff was in fact under the request of a good excuse that he could openly abandon his troops and flee on his own when he was irretrievably corrupted.

Naturally, the well-intentioned Machijiri Ryoki would not let go of the chief of staff's kindness. He transferred some of the peripheral troops back as quickly as possible, and deployed a solid protective ring around His Excellency the Chief of Staff, which was actually his own landline that had fled for his life at a critical moment.

In order to understand the truth of reciprocating the peach, Machijiri was assigned half a squadron to protect the plane, which made the guard somewhat insufficient. He shrank the guard unit of the division headquarters to the south by 1,500 meters to a distance of 500 meters outside the division headquarters. The cordon to the north and east was extended by 500 meters to avoid the infiltration of small forces on the other side.

Although he had received a report that an enemy force of the left flank had broken through the junction of the 6th Division and the 14th Division, it was interspersed to the south. However, the follow-up report confirmed without exception that the target of this enemy force of nearly 10,000 men was not the 6th Division, but the 14th Division to the west of itself.

And Yi Liangpin was too cautious when he was roundabout. Along the way, there are high mountains and dense forests, although it brings a lot of difficulties to the detour, but it undoubtedly plays a covering role for their detour. Most of the small units of the Japanese puppet army that they occasionally encountered along the way did not have communication equipment, so their roundabout operation Machijiri was never present.

Perhaps they believe that it is impossible for their opponents to have their forces behind them, or they may think that their opponents are placing their main forces on their front and right flanks. Focusing only on the northern and western fronts, and not paying the slightest attention to the always calm southern front, Machijiri did not think that the most fatal blow to himself came precisely from the southern front, which he despised the most.

Just as Tasaka, who was almost killed by a fall while landing, was listening to the reports of Kozaburo Ishikawa, chief of staff of the 6th Division, and Junhisa Ikeda, commander of the 45th Wing, who was mainly commanding operations on the front line, several people were stunned by a sudden gunshot from the south of the division headquarters.

Before they could wake up from the strange sound of gunfire, a dense burst of shells smashed down on their heads and faces. Accompanied by the sudden shells that came in this burst, dense gunfire rang out around the small mountain village of Youjiagou, which was small and had only a few dozen households.
