131. Defensive deployment
After communicating with Cao Fengxiang, Bai Shujie decided to take the opportunity to form the third team. Considering that although Cao Fengxiang used to be the deputy battalion commander, he is now older, so after consulting his own opinion, Bai Shujie issued an order for the formation of the third brigade.
The third brigade: the fixed number of 2444** Captain: Du Guangyuan, deputy captain: Xu Chenglong, chief of staff: Cao Fengxiang Guard Company (206 people) Cavalry battalion (745 people): Battalion commander: Feng Kaiyu, deputy battalion commander: Ding Jianming Infantry First Battalion (745 people): Battalion commander: Deng Xiuyan, deputy battalion commander: Wu Yuanhua Second Infantry Battalion (745 people): Battalion commander: Cao Zhijian, deputy battalion commander: Gu Mengliang Each battalion has three companies, each company has three platoons, and one platoon has four squads. Two light machine guns per squad, each battalion armed with 72 light machine guns, 432 Type 38 rifles, 3 81 mortars, 3 60 mortars.
At this point, the Youyan detachment is the combat unit on the front line, with a total of three brigades, one Donggou independent battalion and one guard battalion. Total strength: more than 9,690 people.
On July 8, 1931, Bai Shujie reorganized the combat units on the front line, and the wartime mechanism began to operate in full swing.
Bai Shujie chose to carry out wartime marshalling at this time because on June 26, 1931, the Nakamura Incident occurred on time. On July 3, 1931, anti-Chinese atrocities broke out in various parts of North Korea as scheduled, killing hundreds of Chinese. It shows that the government of Dwarf is still in accordance with the original Jihua, step by step, in creating public opinion to invade the three northeastern provinces.
In particular, when the atrocities of the Chinese broke out in North Korea, Bai Shujie moved the radio station to the square, so that the vast majority of people could hear the relevant broadcasts with their own ears. All the officers and soldiers of Crouching Tiger Villa were filled with righteous indignation, and they all said that they would take the initiative to attack and give the little devil a good look!
It was by taking advantage of this opportunity that Bai Shujie made the decision to reorganize and was supported by everyone! Subsequently, the two-month large-scale military training was in full swing, and the target of the battle was the Oriental dwarf!
On August 18, 1931, Bai Shujie issued operational preparation orders to the headquarters of Daqingshan, Donggou Secret Camp, and Sanxiandong respectively. At the same time, the logistics department of the headquarters was ordered to immediately organize vehicles to immediately transfer a certain amount of food, salt, and ammunition to the Daqingshan and Donggou secret camps.
On August 25, 1931, Bai Shujie issued an order to Daqingshan and Wohu Village to harvest crops. On August 28, the reconnaissance platoon of the guard battalion was ordered to go to Mukden to protect Wang Yizhu, Wang Yidao and Lin Hei'er and transfer to the Sanxiandong base area. The second battalion of infantry was ordered to protect the old and weak of Wohu Village and move to the Sanxiandong base area.
On September 8, 1931, Bai Shujie issued an order to transfer all personnel from Daqingshan, Donggou and Wohu Mountain to Sanxian Cave except for the retained combat personnel. The radio station and personnel of Fuxin Bai Mansion were all transferred to Chifeng Longxiang Trading Company.
On September 12, 1931, Bai Shujie issued a campaign mobilization order to all the combat units of the Youyan detachment. On September 16, Bai Shujie issued the first operational order:
"The first brigade of Daqingshan was under the unified command of Zhang Xiang, and at 22:00 on the evening of September 18, it arrived at the front line of Nianpan and was on standby. At 22:25, he launched a devastating surprise attack on all Japanese targets in Fushun, blowing up all railways, coal mines, Japanese-funded banks, and clubs, and removing all medicines and medical equipment from Japanese hospitals.
The seized materials and the rescued laborers were all transported outside the east gate of Fengtian and concentrated in the Bajiazi area. After meeting with Liu Quanyu, the supplementary battalion of the first brigade was immediately handed over to Liu Quanyu, and then the first batch of supplies was covered to be transferred to Wohu Mountain, and the first brigade seized the arsenal. ”
"The Donggou Independent Battalion and all its troops in Donggou, under the unified command of Liu Yanmei, blew up the Liaoshen Railway at 22:25 on the evening of September 18, blocking the enemy from Liaoyang and reinforcing Fengtian on the railway, delaying the enemy's reinforcement speed. Then immediately go north to the outside of the Great Eastern Gate and seize the Mukden Arsenal. Then obey Sheng Zhiguo's command, and after success, all evacuated. ”
"The Second Brigade of Wohu Mountain strengthened 9 81 mortars, under the unified command of Hou Zide, and at 22:00 on the evening of September 18, it entered the line of the Fan River south of Tieling. At 22:30, it launched a devastating surprise attack on the Japanese Tieling Garrison Brigade, destroying all Japanese targets, blowing up railways and station facilities, and blocking the enemy's troop transport line in Changchun.
The enemy of the 2nd Brigade was the 5th Brigade of the Japanese Independent Garrison, in addition to an engineer squadron, an artillery squadron, and a machine gun squadron. It is necessary to achieve the suddenness of the start of the battle and take him by surprise, so that the tactical goal can be achieved. Then he led his troops south and entered the front line of the north gate of Fengtian City to stand by. ”
"The cavalry battalion and artillery company of the 3rd Brigade, under the unified command of Du Guangyuan, entered the front line of Wenguantun in the north of Mukden City at 22:30 on the evening of September 18, and then followed the Kawashima squadron of the Japanese Sakamoto Brigade. As soon as the Kawashima squadron launched an attack on the northern battalion, an artillery raid was launched against them. Completely crush their battle formation and cover the breakthrough of the Northeast Army. ”
"The second infantry battalion of the third brigade, commanded by Xu Chenglong, entered the front line of Hushitai north of Fengtian at 22:00 on the evening of September 18. As soon as the Kawashima squadron left, gunfire was heard in Mukden Castle, and grenades were immediately used to raid the barracks of the Japanese garrison. Blow up the Hushitai station and railway, as well as all military targets, and then move towards the Mukden Arsenal. ”
"The light machine gun company of the guard battalion of the headquarters, led by deputy battalion commander Liu Quanyu, arrived in Bajiazi at 8:00 p.m. on September 18. As soon as the 1st Brigade Zhang Xiang's headquarters arrived, he immediately took control of the arsenal. Move everything you can. If you can't move it, you will wait for the order and blow it all up. Then lead the replenishment battalion to cover the transfer of supplies. ”
"Sheng Zhiguo of the Security Department led the special company of the guard battalion into Fengtian City in advance, responsible for getting in touch with the inner line, and at 20:00 on the evening of September 18, all the vehicles and warehouses were controlled. As soon as the Donggou Independent Battalion arrived, the transfer of arms and supplies began immediately. In particular, heavy weapons, bullets, and artillery shells were transferred to Wohu Mountain as much as possible. In particular, the bullet production line, the shell production line, and the machine gun production line must all be taken away! ”
"The third battalion of the third brigade of infantry, commanded by Cao Fengxiang, strengthens the defense of Wohu Mountain, and is ready to receive all kinds of materials and personnel at any time."
"The artillery company, heavy machine gun company and telecommunications section of the guard battalion, commanded by Zhao Jinxi, followed the detachment leader Bai Shujie to move. Beginning at 15:00 p.m. on September 18, all the radio stations of all units were turned on and they were ready to listen to orders at any time. ”
At nine o'clock in the morning of September 17, 1931, on the square of Wohu Village, the Youyan detachment held a meeting to change its name and award the flag.
The original Youyan Detachment was officially renamed the "Youyan Anti-Japanese Detachment" from now on. At the meeting, the Second Brigade, the Third Brigade, and the Guard Battalion were all personally awarded flags by Bai Shujie. As for the 1st Brigade and the Independent Battalion, it is still necessary to hold a naming ceremony after the division has been assembled.
After the meeting, the troops marched separately according to the order, and since then they have set foot on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, which is full of war.
After Bai Shujie repeatedly explained to Cao Fengxiang, he led his troops to Caiyun Villa and established the former enemy headquarters. At six o'clock in the evening of the same day, Sheng Zhiguo sent a telegram that he had already contacted the internal personnel of the arsenal. Bai Shujie immediately ordered him to get in touch with Huang Xiansheng of the police station, inform our radio frequency, and establish contact immediately.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Huang Xiansheng sent a telegram to communicate. Bai Shujie immediately called back and expressed his willingness to establish a joint command center to jointly face the upcoming difficult situation.
On September 17, 1931, at 11 o'clock in the evening, Bai Shujie and his party of eight trucks entered Fengtian City, and Huang Xiansheng welcomed Bai Shujie into the police station.
"Chief Huang, I know you've been forming a joint corps. According to my information, by tomorrow night at the latest, the Japanese army will take action against Mukden City! As soon as Bai Shujie sat down, he said to Huang Xiansheng: "The Seventh Brigade of the Beida Battalion is unreliable. The only way now is to equip all police forces with heavy weapons at once. ”
"Now there are rumors of non-resistance everywhere outside, and I am also worried that the 7th Brigade will retreat without a fight." Huang Xiansheng asked worriedly: "I am a police force, I can't interfere in the affairs of the army, and I can't enter the arms warehouse." Now, my police force is full of rifles, and I don't even have many bullets. ”
Bai Shujie smiled and said, "You give me a battalion of troops and twenty trucks, and I have a way to move the weapons from the arms warehouse out tonight, it's up to you to see if you dare." ”
"! What am I afraid of? It's not for his own promotion and getting rich, it's for his life! Huang Xiansheng immediately made a decision and transferred 300 policemen to Bai Shujie for direct command. When these policemen heard that the person opposite them was the leader of the famous Youyan detachment, they all felt very honored, and they didn't have the slightest rebellious thoughts of being commanded in their hearts!
This time, Bai Shujie did not go through the tunnel, but used the big seal on the pass of Tang Yulin's headquarters to copy an official seal, issued a bill of lading, and swaggered directly to the door of the arsenal.
Bai Shujie had already inquired about it, and Tang Yulin's brother-in-law did this every time. The soldiers on duty were accustomed to the dark transaction of picking up goods at three watches in the middle of the night, so they opened the warehouse without asking too much. Bai Shujie went in to take a look and found that there was a batch of newly produced light and heavy machine guns, Type 17 65 light machine guns, Type 13 Type 79 heavy machine guns!
"Brothers, this is it! We need this the most! Bai Shujie came to the vicinity of the 81 mortar again, and pointed casually: "There is also this, which is also what our Commander Tang wants." Remember, the more bullets and shells, the better! Otherwise, if Commander Tang is looking for trouble with me, I'll find your trouble first! ”
Anyway, they were all in the city, and they didn't travel long distances, and in more than two hours, they piled up 20 large trucks like a hill and swayed all the way back to the police station.
Then it was the same old routine, Bai Shujie led the convoy to the arsenal warehouse again, saying that he wanted to carry artillery and shells. At two or three o'clock in the morning, the staff on duty was dizzy and didn't understand, as if they had seen a big red mark.
On this busy night, a total of 300 light machine guns, 120 heavy machine guns, and 10 million rounds of ammunition were proposed. There were also 81 mortars with 150 guns and 17000 shells. 18 small-caliber mountain guns with 1,200 shells.
Huang Xiansheng was dumbfounded on the sidelines, and he couldn't believe that this was true! However, after all, Huang Xiansheng has the demeanor of a general, and after the shock, he immediately reorganized the police force. At the same time, according to the light and heavy weapons at hand now, the arrangement of peripheral positions began.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
