The people of Liulin Town ran around and told each other that Liulin Town was liberated and all the Japanese in the town were wiped out.
Some older old men also came to the street with crutches, looking at the mighty and majestic soldiers and the fierce armored personnel carriers, they cried with joy and tears.
"The sky is open! This is our own army, this is our own army!"
Suddenly, bursts of crackling firecrackers sounded one after another, and the people in the town spontaneously set off firecrackers. The sound of firecrackers swore that the land in Liulin Town was officially restored.
The soldiers of the Mechanical Infantry Regiment looked at the excited people, and many of them felt a sense of pride from their hearts. As a glorious member of the 36th Army, everyone felt deeply proud, especially those who could kill the Japanese, restore large areas of lost land, and be loved by the people. This sense of pride was even stronger.
In the afternoon, two motorized infantry regiments of the ** Division also arrived in Liulin Town one after another. While everyone was speeding up the deployment of troops and defending, they went north to destroy the railway to prevent the Japanese in Changchun from taking the train to Liulin Town.
Although Liulin Town is not big, it is the northern gateway to Siping.

** Division, when the 4th column reached Siping and successively restored the towns outside Siping, the four columns stationed in Jinzhou, the 6th, 8th, 9th, and 10th columns were divided into several groups and set out of Jinzhou City and headed towards Shenyang. They will soon recover Panjin, Fuxin and other places and gradually approach Shenyang.
The 1st Column, 2nd Column and 7th Column that gathered in Jinzhou also reached Jinzhou one after another. After a day of rest, they will also leave Jinzhou tomorrow and move towards Shenyang.
At present, the railway from Jinzhou to Qinhuangdao has been restored, and a large amount of military supplies can be continuously transported to Jinzhou with strong transportation capabilities through the railway.
Jinzhou Airport was also basically restored, and the ruins on the airport were cleaned up by the soldiers, and the big pits were refilled with cement.
The Flight Brigade's four Mustang fighter squadrons, several large transport aircraft, two or three early warning aircraft, as well as a large number of 30mm cannons, early warning radars, etc. have all been deployed to Jinzhou Airport.
Now, the wide apron of Jinzhou Airport is full of a large number of Mustang fighters, and rows of Mustang fighters are neatly arranged and look very spectacular.
Many soldiers are busy at the airport, replenishing fuel, replenishing ammunition, or performing routine maintenance.
The ruins of the airport have been cleaned up, and many soldiers and many ordinary people are building out of the airport's annexes, several large warehouses, military camps, command buildings and other buildings, which need to be rebuilt. These buildings were blown up by rocket launchers of the 36th Army a few days ago.
Jinzhou Airport will be a frontier airport. Not only does it deploy a large amount of air defense firepower and early warning radar, it also has an infantry regiment soldier responsible for the airport's safety.
In Jinzhou, all troops were in an orderly manner, and everyone was busy following Zhang Yunfei's deployment.
************
Siping periphery.
The main force of the 4th Column and the ** Division have been deployed. Each artillery regiment and the 4th Column Heavy Artillery Brigade have built artillery positions. In order to prevent Japanese aircraft from sneak attacks, the three mechanical infantry regiments of the 4th Column did not stay away from their artillery positions. Once Japanese aircraft attacked, these three mechanical infantry regiments will be responsible for air defense.
Siping western suburbs.
The 4th Column and the top leaders of the ** Division have gathered together and we have established a joint command center. The joint command center is located on a small highland in the western suburbs of Siping.
Several field tents have been built, radio stations have been built, several armored command vehicles and more than a dozen off-road vehicles have stayed not far from these field tents.
In the joint command, many soldiers were busy. The commander of the 4th Column and the commander of the ** Division Liao Yaoxiang were discussing the battle that was about to be held.
The 4th Column had more than 50,000 people and the ** Division had more than 20,000 troops gathered outside Siping, and more than 10,000 people had more than 60,000 people, and more than 10,000 people were distributed in various counties and towns near Siping.
The Japanese troops responsible for Siping’s defense have been investigated clearly. There is only one Japanese field division in Siping, the 112th Japanese Division, and a Class B division, with nearly 20,000 people.
Everyone has great confidence in restoring Siping. What everyone is worried about is that a large number of Japanese reinforcements in Changchun. It is expected that a large number of Japanese reinforcements in Changchun will be today, and tomorrow at the latest, the Japanese reinforcements will reach Siping.
At that time, there will be a tragic blocking battle, with more than 50,000 people in the 4th Column and more than 20,000 people in the ** Division, totaling more than 70,000 people. It will block the Japanese troops of more than 100,000. In addition, there may be a large number of puppet Manchukuo troops.
The army of the puppet Manchukuo also has hundreds of thousands. The Japanese will definitely order some of the two Japanese in the puppet Manchukuo to set out from Changchun to reinforce Shenyang. At that time, I am afraid that the troops to be blocked may reach a huge amount of 200,000.
More than 70,000 people and sniping troops of 200,000 will be an arduous battle.
In the afternoon, at exactly three o'clock.
Several dazzling signal flares rose into the sky, and the battle to attack the Japanese defensive positions outside Siping began. On the Siping, the Japanese built a large number of defensive positions, which would be a half-hour shelling first.
The 4th Column had three artillery regiments, one heavy artillery brigade, and one artillery regiment of the ** Division, more than 200 105 howitzers and 72 155 heavy howitzers launched large-scale artillery bombardment at the Japanese's peripheral positions.
As several signal flares took off, not long after, a large number of sharp whistling sounds came from the sky. Two or three hundred heavy artillery attacked the Japanese's peripheral positions almost at the same time.
North of Siping City.
The commander of the 112th Division of the Japanese was watching the frontier defensive position. The commander of the Japanese division, surrounded by a group of Japanese officers, held a telescope and looked at the frontier defensive position two or three kilometers away in front.
The multiple defensive positions outside Siping were temporarily built these days, and only a small number of positions are permanent and solid fortifications.
A few days ago, I learned that the 36th Army's tens of thousands of troops appeared in Tongliao. The Japanese speculated that the target of this 36th Army's tens of thousands of troops might be Siping.
The 112th Division of the Japanese devils stationed in Siping, under the strict order of the Japanese commander Mijiro Umezu, built a large number of fortifications in the past few days. Due to the urgent time, the Japanese devils' fortifications were mainly civil fortifications.
The commander of the Japanese Division held up a telescope and looked at it for a long time. He was a little worried and thought to himself that if the heavy artillery group of the 36th Army fired at their positions, he would be in danger.
However, the Japanese Division also felt that the troops of the 36th Army, deep in the hinterland of the Kwantung Army, were basically an isolated army, without reinforcements or supplies, and might face bombing from their own planes.
Even if such a unit has a heavy artillery group, they may not dare to fire. As soon as they fire, their location will be exposed. The planes from Chenyang Airport can arrive and bomb these heavy artillery groups.
Although the Japanese division commander was a little worried about the heavy artillery group, he was also sure that these heavy artillery groups should not dare to fire.
"I hope this heavy artillery group of the 36th Army will not dare to fire!"
The Japanese division commander thought silently in his heart.
The commander of the Japanese Division, as soon as he thought about this, he immediately heard a sharp whistling sound from the sky. As soon as he heard this sound, the Japanese Division's face changed.
"Baga! The heavy artillery group of the 36th Army!"
The Japanese didn't want to come, they just came.
"His division commander! What should we do? The heavy artillery group of the 36th Army."
Several Japanese officers, seeing so many heavy artillery fired at him, screamed in horror. What they built was just civil fortifications, how could they withstand such violent shelling?
Amid the terrified eyes of the Japanese, a large number of shells were smashed down fiercely, and a shocking explosion occurred on the Japanese's positions.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The explosions were densely shaking, and large areas of soil splashed on the Japanese positions, and shocking pits appeared. Whether it was a 105mm heavy artillery or a 155 heavy artillery, the power was small, especially the target of the attack was the Japanese civil fortifications.
The commander of the Japanese Division and a group of Japanese officers saw that their positions were blown away and many Japanese devils were killed, and the faces of the Japanese devils turned pale.
"Quick! Send a report to Mr. Mijiro Umezu, requesting air support, and sending planes to attack the heavy artillery group of the 36th Army."
The commander of the Japanese Division, when he saw that his position was blown up in a mess, immediately started screaming fiercely, wanting to call for air support.
Immediately, several Japanese soldiers, carrying command knives, hurriedly ran down, obviously, to order Japanese Japanese correspondents to fly to Chenyang to send a report and call for air support.
The Japanese Shenyang Airport is one of the largest aircraft of the Kwantung Army, with hundreds of aircraft deployed, including fighter jets, bombers, transport aircraft, etc., which is a considerable air force.
The intensive artillery bombardment of the 4th Column and the ** Division continued, and a large number of shells poured into the Japanese's peripheral positions. After watching for a few minutes, the Japanese division commander could no longer watch. He carried a command knife and a gloomy face, climbed onto an armored vehicle next to him and headed towards the command center in Siping City.
The commander of the Japanese Division, what he most hopes is that a large number of aircraft will arrive as soon as possible, so as to bomb the heavy artillery group of the 36th Army, so as to avenge the soldiers who died tragically under the heavy artillery.
