Chapter 2: The arduous anti-Japanese war
"Won't it?" The three brigade commanders looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise. Unlike Ouyang Yun, Li Tieshu, Zhang Zhen and others, the desire for war among the middle and low-level officers and soldiers of the Cadet Army is quite high. If they are not in their position or in their position, all they need to consider is how to kill and damage the enemy more on the battlefield. Ouyang Yun and the others have to think about the future of the student army, such as Ouyang Yun, they have to think about it more. Perhaps this is the so-called "rule of the rich"? When you have nothing, you are not afraid of heaven and earth, and if you have more, you will begin to suffer from gains and losses. When he was still the so-called "Anti-Japanese Twin Heroes", he would not consider this, because he knew the direction of history, and he knew that the strength of himself and Chu Tiange alone was not enough to change anything. Now it's different, the amount of power he has can already influence the course of history to some extent, and because of this, he began to worry, if the student army is exhausted after this battle? What will be the fate of North China and China?
Ouyang Yun sat on the off-road vehicle with the license plate number "JXBJ-Jun 0001", looking at the officers and soldiers who were elated around him as if they were going to the banquet, and his heart suddenly felt a little sour. He has never been a pessimistic person, but this time, in the face of an absolutely superior enemy, he is really a little lacking in confidence. He thought: What would the brothers think if they knew that I was taking everyone to death? Will they still embrace me like that?
The troops began to set off, and the guard regiment guarded Ouyang Yun in the middle of the team, starting with the reconnaissance battalion of the Third Division and the Sixth Brigade. Immediately behind the military brigade was the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division. Behind the large army, there was a regiment of the self-propelled artillery brigade and the 2nd Xue Brigade.
When the vanguard had already driven out of Miyun City, Ouyang Yun looked back at the crowd who were cheering for the first time, and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.
Since the Nantianmen was broken, Beiping has become riotous, and Miyun has also been affected, and there has been a certain degree of escape. And when the student army drove over, many of the families who had been preparing to flee stayed. Several of them also brought condolences to the army to thank the commander of the Cadet Army for coming to rescue them. The Chinese people are so kind, it is the duty of soldiers to protect their homes and defend the country, but in their eyes, it has become charity.
There were young and old, men and women, but there were very few young and middle-aged people. They all joined the Self-Defense Forces, and their weapons were probably just a big knife or a spear. Just hearing the news that some Self-Defense Forces took the initiative to snipe and harass the Japanese army, Ouyang Yun was first surprised, then relieved, and then saddened and even guilty. In the past, in North China, there was no such scene where all the people are soldiers today. This is naturally the effect of the "butterfly effect", but let the civilian areas that are simply armed or even not armed at all deal with the army? Was he doing the right thing - he couldn't convince himself.
In his time, there was a special weapon called a human bomb. He felt pity for the Palestinian people, who could only express their resistance in this way. A nation, a country has really reached this point, brave is brave, but it is too tragic. He did not want his countrymen to rebel against the invaders in such a way, which was a disgrace to the superiors of the country and a great sorrow.
Is it another form of human bombing that the SDF members use shotguns and even bows and arrows to deal with invaders armed to the teeth?
"In this battle, only victory is allowed, not defeat!" In his heart, Ouyang Yun said silently, and his gaze turned forward suddenly became firm.
Just when Ouyang Yun was marching towards Changping with his troops in a tragic mood, in Yanqing City, the Japanese army was busy with martial law in the whole city. Before Kazuki Kiyoji had time to reminisce about the joy of capturing Yanqing, the whole city erupted to see all kinds of sneak attacks against the Japanese army. Every time a place was captured, depending on the hardships of the battle, the Japanese commander would allow the soldiers to do something out of the ordinary, which had become an unspoken rule in the Japanese army. In the battle of Yanqing, the Japanese army did not fight easily. Qin Dechun has dealt with the Japanese army too much and knows it well, while the 29th Army does not have much gap with the Japanese army in terms of equipment quality and technical and tactical level; Coupled with the fact that the defenders already had a congenital advantage, the Japanese 20th Division paid the price of more than 3,000 casualties to drive the 29th Army out of Yanqing City - remember here that it was driven away rather than defeated. Because, the casualties of the 37th Division and the 2nd Provisional Division of the 29th Army were only more than 1,000 people.
When the little devil screamed and rushed into Yanqing City to rob the wilderness, they didn't expect that Qin Dechun had already turned this place into a barrel of explosives. Qin Dechun did more than Ouyang Yun. The latter is merely developing the Self-Defense Forces, while the former directly distributes the replaced guns and ammunition to each household on a per-household basis.
When the little devil was about to look for the flower girl and search for gold and silver treasures, in the east alley and the west window, cold guns rang out. What's even more terrifying is that occasionally a grenade will be thrown from a corner of the road.
The little devil began to seriously underestimate this phenomenon, and suffered heavy losses, and more than 300 people became lonely ghosts in other places in this way. Kawagishi Fumizaburo, the commander of the 20th Division of the advanced city, was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and in anger, the old devil gave the order to slaughter the city. In this way, it naturally caused more fierce resistance from the residents of the city. Even some old ladies dare to rush out with a kitchen knife to cut devils.
Civilians and armies fighting, and not in the same country, the results can be imagined. In order to resist the invasion and defend their homeland, the people of Yanqing paid a heavy price. Within half an hour of Kawagishi Bunzaburo giving the order to slaughter the city, more than 3,000 people in Yanqing fell under the butcher's knife of the invaders. By the time Kiyoji Kazuki arrived in the city, the Japanese army had already divided the city into six pieces, and was carrying out a financial and humane massacre one by one. Faced with the scene of rivers of blood in the city, Kazuki Kiyoji was startled, the old devil thought that there were still enemy troops in the city outside the city, and now he knows what is going on with this "enemy army". The old devil was so angry that when Kawagishi Bunzaburo was called over, he slapped him in front of many subordinates, and then scolded loudly: "Bage, who made you do this?" Do you want Yanqing to become a dead city? In this way, even if we can successfully capture Jicha, there is no one to work for us, what is the use of us taking it, are you going to move your family over to work on behalf of the people? Eight ......"
"Hay! Hail! Kawagishi Bunzaburo, who knew that he had made a big mistake, scolded and didn't fight back. At this time, he had already calmed down, and instantly thought that in this way, the cities that the imperial army was going to capture would inevitably encounter this kind of resistance, and China, which claimed to have a population of 40,000, was here, and they were killed by these mobs nearly 400 people, so how many people would die in the empire to occupy the whole of China? I'm afraid that the adult men of the entire Yamato nation will be pulled over - as soon as he thought of this, he sweated profusely, and for the first time felt the horror of China.
The size of the population is itself a kind of force.
