Chapter 41 Entry

On the ninth day, Liefeng, with the Second Division and the 20th Division, the main force of the Eighth Brigade, entered Jinzhou without encountering fierce resistance. Only the armored train of the 74th Squadron of the Independent Railway Corps, which had not retreated into the pass, destroyed the Feng army with artillery. The two officers were killed. Jinzhou fell at noon that day.

When Liefeng entered Jinzhou, on the one hand, he was preparing to sweep away the remaining Fengtian and rebel troops from all over the country, and on the other hand, he stepped up his rest. Since Liefeng joined the war on the night of November 20, 1995, Liefeng has invested 170,000 troops, and about 1,300 people were killed, which requires a rest process.

But the Liefeng Army that captured Jinzhou was soon hit by a considerable blow, and the 27th cavalry revolt and part of the affiliated infantry that attacked Jinxi were annihilated.

The 27th Cavalry Regiment belonged to the 19th Division of the Silla Army system and was stationed in Luonan, North Xianbei. After the Liefeng Army started the war in Xiangfeng, it transferred the cavalry regiment to join the 38th Mixed Brigade.

According to the Liefeng Army system, the infantry brigade was assigned to artillery, cavalry, baggage, and engineering troops, and then became an independent combat capability, called the "Mixed Brigade". The 38th Brigade of the former 19th Division was transferred to the northeast and replaced by the command of the 20th Division Command. The 27th Cavalry Regiment Koga Nakasa and the gang adjutant of the gang, the 20th Division Command, and the 20th Cavalry Regiment Major Shenwang Qiandu was ordered by the 20th Division Command to carry forward in the Shanhaiguan area.

The Fierce Wind Regiment is equivalent to the first-level "Regiment" system of our army, but the 27th Cavalry Regiment has a very small unit with extremely strong cavalry mobility. When fighting on horseback, its position changes very quickly. In order to timely grasp and command such a cavalry force on the battlefield, the common practice of all countries at that time was to reduce the level of cavalry and reduce the cavalry organization with the first level of infantry.

The cavalry corps belonging to a cavalry brigade of Liefeng is generally to directly command four cavalry squadrons, while the cavalry corps belonging to the infantry division has only two cavalry squadrons, and there is no battalion-level command level. In terms of number of people, each squadron has about a hundred people.

However, although the cavalry corps of the 20th Division had plans to expand the system, the reason why the navy plundered and occupied relevant information was that there was only one cavalry squadron in the entire regiment, and including several officers such as the corps adjutant, the entire regiment had only eighty people.

The wing captain Kaga Nakasa is an officer of special origin and is quite familiar with the situation in the Northeast. However, the wing's adjutant, the wing, was the wing's adjutant, Major Qianwang Shendu. He was famous for his "Ghost Squadron Captain". Later, he made outstanding contributions to the Liefeng Intelligence System and revealed the secrets of a spy selling intelligence in Liefeng, and later worked at the Liefeng Army Non-commissioned Officer School.

Because of increasing the combat effectiveness of the troops, Master Qianwang was specially transferred from the non-commissioned officer school to the 27th Cavalry Regiment to serve as an important position in the gang's adjutant. The gang arrived in Jinxi County on January 12th. Soon, 26 people from the 1st part of the 20th Division's baggage team and a team main force in the 73rd Division also arrived in the area. At that time, there were about 130 people in the mainland of Jinxi City.

Shortly after entering the capital, Liefengjiu, Di Jinxi County, was attacked. The troops from unknown sources attacked the unit, causing dozens of casualties. Qianwang Shendu issued an order without obtaining the consent of the corps captain. He decided to attack the 27th Cavalry Regiment to fully retaliate.

Qianwang Shendu divided a cavalry squadron into four routes to sweep the Dragon King Temple. The 20th Division's baggage team returned to Jinzhou. The 70th Regiment received a team of more than 20 people and was also assigned to the cavalry troops to participate in the sweep. There was only the flag of the regiment (only the flag bearer of the regiment) and a temporary cavalry squadron left behind in the county. Major Qianwang also gave a passionate speech: "The soldiers of the empire. His Majesty the Emperor is waiting for you to make merits...before."

The captain of the Koga Regiment found that Qianwang issued an order without authorization was almost a certain fact, so he had to make a decision in this situation. He immediately led his troops to attack, and he was shot continuously near the uphill not long after he left and right. The captain of the Koga Regiment immediately ordered a detour to surround him, each with a small team without left and right wings. A cavalry cannon was in the middle, and one was the reserve team to attack the troops on the mountain.

Qianwang Shendu shouted excitedly: "One charge can defeat these militia." Unexpectedly, more than 60 cavalry dismounted into the mountains and encountered good results. The infantry team attacking the Dragon King Temple also encountered three encirclements.

Koga felt that the situation was not good and immediately decided to stop the attack. As a result, Major Qianwang shouted: "This is when the imperial soldiers serve the motherland, they cannot retreat..."

As a result, it took a long time to retreat to the uphill. At this time, a sergeant came to report: "Your Excellency, the Ishino infantry team was surrounded on three sides, and Master Ishino unfortunately turned into the soul of protecting the country..."

It turned out that the local rebels in front were composed of a part of the Fengtian army and some militia groups and policemen before they retreated to the mainland of the pass. The infantry team hid on the high ground and observed it clearly. They immediately lured this 30-person local unit to attack the Longwang Temple Highland. When the Japanese army entered the Longwang Temple Highland, the rebels suddenly launched an attack, and many of them were killed in battle.

At this time, the Liefeng Army in the mainland of Jinxi City was also attacked by the rebel army. Qianwang Shendu once again issued an order to divide the troops. He led two teams to take the infantry team back to the city. The Koga Regiment led a cavalry team and a cavalry artillery team to aid Jinxi County.

He said loudly: "We cannot abandon the local troops, the corps captain, please forgive me!"

The flag of the inner corps of the city and a temporary squad were formed. Outside the 27th Cavalry Regiment, Jiu soon discovered that the rebels were attacking. He immediately decided to control the important roads of the county government and build fortifications on the roofs of the houses, and all logistics personnel participated in the war.

The attack on Jinxi City was fierce. They set fire while attacking, and the remaining personnel were suspicious. When the Wuchuan military officers rode out to reconnaissance, they were shot dead immediately.

Seeing this, the flag bearer of the corps, Morishita, believed that the corps was in danger of being completely destroyed, so he immediately built a pile of Gao Gang and was ready to ignite the fire when the troops were completely destroyed. Naturally, holding the military flag, jumped into the fire. The rebel attack lasted for three hours, and it was not until Major Qianwang led a part of the main force of the Liefeng Army into the city.

He was the first to return to the city, and when he arrived outside the west gate, he suddenly encountered a gunfire on the artillery tower. Koga was shot and was killed shortly after he was dropped. A guard and a captain around him were shot and seriously injured respectively.

The remaining troops continued to attack, but the result was that both captains were shot dead, eleven of Gong were shot dead, and fourteen were seriously injured. The Grandmaster Qianwang Shendu took advantage of the opportunity of Ximen's fierce battle field. He gathered two cavalry squads and successfully entered the city from the South Gate. He was assigned to the local infantry squad's command of the troops (only a few remaining people were still combat-effective at this time) and returned to the city after suffering a considerable casualties.

With the support of these troops, the Liefeng Army in Jinxi County barely defended its position, but one hundred and ten Liefeng Army in the mainland of Jinxi City one day, with casualties of 74 people. The Liefeng Army cried that night.

The battle lasted until noon the next day. The first battalion of the 73rd Regiment of the 20th Division arrived for support, and hundreds of rebels in the siege announced their retreat. Almost all of the 100 liefeng officers and soldiers in the city were injured and killed, of which the 27th Cavalry Regiment had a total force of only more than 80. During the battle, more than 40 people were killed. The remaining officers and soldiers were almost seriously injured. Only the Shenwang Qiandu master was miraculously unscathed.

In addition, Master Qianwang is indeed a "miracle man". He ordered his return to Jinzhou's 20th Division's baggage team. Before he left the county town, he encountered a rebel attack. All 29 people in the baggage team were shot dead, and there were many guns, bullets and supplies seized. According to the Liefeng Army's own statistics, within the two days of battle, the 20th Division was shot dead by one hundred and three people.

This was just the beginning of the rebel army's ups and downs. The Liefeng Army was attacked in many places in the northeast, especially in the battles on the front line north of Tonghua. The Liefeng Army suffered heavy losses. Among the 5,900 officers and soldiers in the field of battle, 382 were injured and 996 were frostbite-related injuries. The reduction was 23% (this is the statistical loss of Liefeng, but according to the recent statistics of the newly discovered lands of war historians, the number of casualties in the Liefeng Army was more than 150, and so on, the actual casualties in the Liefeng Army may be about 800).

Under such circumstances, the Fengtian army still hoped to fight back to the outside of the pass. Both the Tielites and the Liefeng people hoped to establish a comrade order in the occupied areas. In this case, the two sides immediately signed a treaty, with Changchun as the boundary, and listed the Northern Manchuria (north of Changchun, including the outer Rouran area) as the sphere of influence of the Tielite people, while the Southern Manchuria (south of Changchun, including Changchun) as the sphere of influence of the Liefeng people.

January can be called the Blood and Fire Land for one month. The number of deaths of the Liefeng people in that month reached 1,200, most of which were casualties in the battlefield against the rebels. The Liefeng people were not allowed to continue to reinforce the troops.

In order to have more mobile troops, the Liefeng Army specially formed several garrisons, including three border garrisons and six independent garrisons. The land structure of these troops is equivalent to an infantry brigade, and most of them are newly formed troops, with poor combat power and poor firepower, but it is still enough to take on garrison tasks.

Moreover, the cost of forming these troops was not high. Because the Fengtian Garrison Command rebelled under the instigation of Chen Shengdi, the Liefeng people seized a large amount of supplies when they entered Fengtian. Especially the losses in the Shenyang Arsenal were even more tragic. The Japanese army said that a total of 50,000 rifles, about 400 cannons, millions of guns, artillery shells, and a large number of semi-finished military supplies could be armed. In Fengtian, the Liefeng people also obtained about 200 million yuan worth of gold, silver and paper money.

The Liefeng people looked at the twenty-four-pound cannons in the Shenyang Arsenal and admired them very much. Many officers took photos with these two cannons. The Shenyang Arsenal also resumed production under the guidance of Liefeng technicians. Although the worker's work could not reach the peak production, they could still produce weapons and ordinary ammunition for arming two infantry corps and sufficient combat consumption of six divisions every month.

The Liefeng people only need to provide personnel and military uniforms. A considerable number of 9 brigades were organized to establish the Liefeng troops in January, greatly stabilizing the situation in the ruling region. In February, four border garrisons and two independent garrisons were established. Most of these garrisons were armed with seized equipment. In addition, the Liefeng people also formed an unprecedented cavalry force - the Cavalry Group (composed of two cavalry brigades, about 8,000 troops).

Albion was also very satisfied with the action of stabbing Xiao Diji in the back. In Kaohsiung Port, Xiao Diji's reserve force was lost. Albion's cabinet took the initiative to provide material assistance of about 600,000 Albion pounds. In addition, the Albion people also provided loan assistance of five million Albion pounds. The total loans received by the Liefeng people reached an astonishing number of more than 10 million Albion pounds. These materials arrived at Liefeng from April to August of the 96th year of the Republic through neutral merchant ships.

Under this situation, the Liefengren's "Bandit Corps Resolution Operation" in February achieved considerable results. According to the statistics of the Liefengren, the development of the rebel army reached its peak in the first half of February. The Liefeng fought with the "Bandit Corps" for 7,600 times, and the Liefeng soldiers died at 1,100 (this number has a large omission, and does not include the deaths of military families, paramilitary families, and civilians. It is generally believed that the actual number is twice that of this number). The number of battles in the second half of February was reduced to less than 3,000 times, and there were only 340 dead. "There are many good public security near big cities...", and the so-called "resubmitted bandits" also reached 22,000.

Although the Northeast Rebel Army made extraordinary contributions to the entire war, they were always a self-organized army, with complex components, including regular troops that had not yet retreated into the pass, as well as local armed forces, militias, spontaneous invasions, and even bandits, forest teams, and family armed forces. Without unified command, the military discipline of most troops is not good under the quality of the troops.

Therefore, when the Liefeng people used most of their troops to sweep the various places, the puppet army led by Chen Sheng and the Rouran troops also cooperated with the Liefeng army to carry out the sweep, which immediately suffered a great setback. Many troops were dispersed and destroyed, and some surrendered to the Liefeng army.

According to the statistics of Liefeng people, the total number of "bandit groups in the territory" increased sharply from more than 60,000 in early January to 110,000 in mid-January. By late January, this number reached 170,000. In early February, "because of our imperial army actively rectifying the war", this number decreased to 120,000. In mid-February, it further decreased to about 90,000. All counties in South Manchuria were captured. In late February, Liefeng people said proudly: "Most of the South Manchuria is good for public security." In early March, Liefeng people announced that "there are no large bandit groups in the territory with more than 3,000 people, and the public security is very good..."

But on the other hand, Liefeng historians have to admit: "It is precisely with these favorable conditions that the time to enter the mainland of the pass will be greatly advanced. Liefeng was rashly involved in a tragic battle-Hebei battle..."
