Xu Rui wanted to return to Wujiashan via Primorsky Frontier District, but Cherev and Savushkin did not want to let Xu Rui go back. Xu Rui said: "My mission has been completed, and now I must return to Wujiashan."
Cherev said: "Comrade Xu Rui, I'm afraid you won't be able to return to Wujiashan now."
Xu Rui asked: "Why?"
Cherev said: "Because Primorsky Krai still needs you."
Xu Rui said: "I am not a Soviet. Without orders from superiors, it is still inconvenient to intervene in the affairs of Primorsky Krai. You Soviets are responsible for it yourself."
Cherev said: "Comrade Xu Rui, according to reliable intelligence, the Japanese are preparing to attack the Changbai Mountain Base Area. Without the support of the Primorsky Territory, it will be difficult for the Changbai Mountain Base Area to defeat the Japanese encirclement and suppression."
Xu Rui said loudly: "Cherev, no matter whether there is Primorsky Krai or not, as long as I, Xu Rui, am here, we will definitely be able to crush the Japanese encirclement and suppression."
When Cherev saw Xu Rui's resolute attitude, he could only sigh and said: "Let's do this, Comrade Xu Rui, how about we make a deal?"
"What deal?" Xu Rui asked.
"There is an old saying in China that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Our Primorsky Territory will fully assist Wujiashan in countering the Japanese encirclement and suppression. However, in return, once the Japanese attack Primorsky Krai, you will still have to go to Primorsky Krai to help us." Sa
Vushkin interjected.
Xu Rui nodded. He knew that this was a very good choice for fighting against the New Alliance Regiment and the Wujiashan base area. By establishing an offensive and defensive alliance with the Soviets, he could consolidate and develop the base area with the Soviet Union as his back.
"Report, the latest news from Wujiashan!" A staff officer came over and said.
Savushkin quickly asked: "What's going on?"
The staff officer said: "The Japanese army dispatched three divisions and about 60,000 people to launch an attack on the Changbai Mountain base area. The four counties under the Changbai Mountain base area resisted steadily under the leadership of Wang Husheng. However, the Japanese army was so powerful that it only took three days to capture it.
In the four counties of Changbai, large Japanese troops have now gathered at the foot of Wujiashan. Wang Husheng and the Anti-Japanese New Regiment must fight for every inch of territory, and the two sides are fighting very hard."
Xu Rui frowned. It only took three days for the four counties of Changbai to be lost. It seemed that the Japanese were sure to win this time. He didn't know if Wang Husheng could hold Wujiashan. He had to go back.
Thinking of this, Xu Rui said: "Savushkin, Comrade Cherev, I must return to Wujiashan. Otherwise, once Wujiashan is lost, the door of Primorsky Territory will be wide open. Even if I have the ability to reach the sky, I will not be able to defend Primorsky Frontier."
district."
When Savushkin and Cherev saw this situation, they knew that they could not keep Xu Rui, otherwise once Wujiashan fell, Xu Rui would be resentful and unable to work, which would be very troublesome.
Thinking of this, Savushkin said: "Comrade Xu Rui, since the war in Wujiashan is urgent, we will not leave you alone. If you need anything, just ask, and we will do our best to help the comrades in Wujiashan tide over the difficulties."
Xu Rui said: "I need comrades from the Primorsky Krai to conduct feint attacks in the border areas to attract the attention of the Japanese so that they cannot attack Wujiashan with all their strength. This is the greatest support for Wujiashan."
Xu Rui knew that there was no shortage of weapons and supplies in the Wujiashan base area at this time, so he did not open his mouth again. However, Xu Rui asked the troops in the Primorye Territory to conduct a feint attack to contain the Japanese army. This was also within a reasonable range.
Savushkin and Cherev immediately agreed.
In order to show support for the Wujiashan Anti-Alliance New Regiment, Savushkin sent fifty rocket launchers to the Wujiashan base area. At this time, Xu Rui was anxious because of the tension in the Wujiashan war, and did not talk to Savushkin.
He was polite, asked Savushkin for five trucks, and headed towards Wujiashan...
Wujiashan, at the foot of the mountain, tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers surrounded the front of Wujiashan. Looking from a distance, the whole outside of Wujiashan was a densely packed tent, with countless small yellow dots filling it like ants.
In the center of a forest of antennas is a huge tent. Haruyuki Inoue is located in the tent, constantly pointing at the combat map.
This time, in order to deal with the Changbai Mountain base area, Yamashita Fengwen sent the most elite troops, and Inoue Haruyuki led three divisions to attack the Changbai Mountain base area.
In order to deal with the Changbai Mountain base area, Inoue Haruyuki made careful preparations. Three divisions secretly gathered on the outskirts of the base area and launched a surprise attack on the Changbai Mountain base area. The new anti-alliance regiment was caught off guard and lost four counties in three days, causing heavy losses.
More than 5,000 people retreated to Wujiashan Fortress for a final fight with the Japanese.
Inoue Haruyuki was very proud. His tactics were very effective and achieved great success. In just three days, he occupied Yanji, Hunchun and other four counties in the Changbai Mountain base area, and wiped out a large number of soldiers of the New Anti-Alliance Regiment.
By surrounding the remnants of the New Anti-League Regiment in a small area around Wujiashan, it can be said that more than half of his goal has been accomplished. Next, as long as all the New Anti-League Regiment in Wujiashan are eliminated, he will be
When the job is done, Lang Ya and Xu Rui will become rootless duckweeds, unable to make big waves again.
But Inoue Haruyuki also knew that the core of the Changbai Mountain base was the Wujiashan Fortress. The Wujiashan Fortress was well fortified. Yamashita Fengwen's Seventh Army attacked for a long time, but in the end the entire army collapsed. This time, it would be very difficult for him to capture the Wujiashan Fortress.
big.
After research, Haru Inoue believed that artillery fire was the most effective way to deal with fortifications, especially heavy artillery, which was a powerful weapon for destroying fortifications. At the same time, rocket launchers and flamethrowers were useful supplements for attacking solid fortifications.
Therefore, Inoue Haruyuki mobilized a large number of artillery, including thirty-six 150-caliber howitzers, just enough for a heavy artillery regiment. At the same time, Inoue Haruyuki equipped the offensive troops with a large number of rocket launchers, but flamethrowers
There were not many flamethrowers, so Inoue Haruyuki managed to get ten flamethrowers from various places. After making preparations, Inoue Haruyuki launched an all-out attack on Wujiashan Fortress.
"boom!"
"Boom boom!"
Huge explosions rang out, gravel flew, and the entire Wujiashan Mountain trembled. Looking at the Wujiashan Mountain shaking in the distance, Inoue Haruyuki showed a smile on his face.
He knew that the Wujiashan base area was Xu Rui's foundation. If he occupied Xu Rui's foundation, Xu Rui's many years of hard work would be ruined. By then, Xu Rui would not be so scary.
Inoue Haruyuki said: "Order, the heavy artillery regiment bombards Wujiashan with all its strength, don't skimp on the artillery shells, I will replenish them as much as you hit!"
"Hai!"
Following Inoue Haruyuki's order, the entire Wujiashan was under fire, and the new anti-alliance regiment on the mountain was severely tested...
In the main position of Wujiashan Fortress, Wang Husheng, He Shuya, Huang Shouxin, Gao Chu, Shi Changqing, Digua and others gathered together to continuously discuss the current war situation.
Wang Husheng said: "Now 60,000 Japanese soldiers have surrounded the Wujiashan Fortress. The Japanese artillery fire is very fierce, but because the soldiers evacuated to the underground fortifications in time, our losses are not great. However, this is not a long-term solution, or
We have to think of a way to repel the devils."
He Shuya said: "It was my carelessness this time that allowed the Japanese to directly occupy Yanji, otherwise the situation would not have been so passive."
Huang Shouxin also said: "I am also responsible. Unexpectedly, the Japanese attacked suddenly and caused great losses to the troops."
Wang Husheng said: "Now is not the time to take responsibility. Now we have to solve the problem and we must defend the Wujiashan position. Unfortunately, Lao Xu is not here, otherwise we will be able to repel the Japanese attack."
Wang Husheng looked at He Shuya and said, "You are Lao Xu's disciple and the one who is most like Lao Xu among us. Please tell us what we should do now."
He Shuya said: "Due to the Japanese sneak attack, our army lost half of its strength in three days. Now the total number is only about 5,000. If we only defend the Wujiashan Fortress, it should be enough in terms of strength.
, but if we remain trapped in the Wujiashan Fortress, then the best thing waiting for us is destruction. We must find a way out. Only by attacking can we reverse the current situation."
"Attack? Firstly, we don't have enough troops, and secondly, where can we attack?" Wang Husheng said.
He Shuya said: "There is an old saying in China that you get up wherever you fall. Now that the Japanese have occupied the four counties of Changbai, they will definitely hoard supplies in the four counties of Changbai, especially the nearby Hunchun and Wujiashan.
If we are very close, it will definitely become a hoarding point for the Japanese supplies. If we can destroy the Japanese supplies in Hunchun, then the Japanese will be in trouble. By then our army will cooperate with the inside and outside, and we will be able to break the Japanese encirclement and suppression."
"It makes sense. It's just who should attack Hunchun and how many troops are needed. This is worth discussing." Wang Husheng said.
Digua took over and said: "This sneak attack behind enemy lines is naturally left to us, Langya."
Gao Chu said: "The main force of Digua and Langya have gone to the Soviet Union. Most of your people are novices. Can they do such a big job?"
Digua said: "Gao Chu, don't look down on others. We, Langya, are all heroes. Even novices are a hundred times better than ordinary troops when it comes to special operations."
He Shuya said: "Langya must go, but Langya's troops alone are not enough. Therefore, I will personally lead a battalion to leave Wujiashan through the secret exit, and together with Langya, we will attack Hunchun and cut off the main artery of Inoue Haruzhi."
Wang Husheng nodded and said: "This plan is feasible, then we will pass it by a show of hands."
At that moment, everyone raised their hands, and Wang Husheng nodded and said, "Then the matter is decided. Digua leads Langya and He Shuya's battalion out of Hunchun to cut off the Japanese supply line."
Later, Wang Husheng arranged another task. Huang Shouxin, Gao Chu, Shi Changqing and others led the troops to hold on to Wujiashan, while Tiegang's cavalry battalion stayed in the Wujiashan fortress as a general reserve force to maneuver.
