Devil's Army

Chapter 1617: Driving the Japanese Army out of Dongning County

Most of the Japanese troops stationed in Dongning County were annihilated under the all-out attack of the soldiers of the 17th Brigade and the 2nd Parachute Battalion, and a few fled to Suifenhe.

When the captain saw the large amount of food seized, he felt regretful again.

If he had not ordered the bombing of the Japanese ammunition depot, all the ammunition in the connected warehouses would now be theirs.

The Japanese troops that fled to Suifenhe were few in number and short of ammunition.

Suifenhe is a border crossing between China and the Soviet Union. In order to prevent China from receiving support from the Soviet Union, the Japanese army stationed a certain number of defensive troops there.

Brigade Commander Guo reported to Leng Feng for approval, and the troops of two battalions of the 17th Brigade and the 2nd Parachute Battalion continued to march towards Suifenhe the next morning.

The troops were divided into three groups and quickly launched the battle to recapture Suifenhe.

At the beginning, the troops encountered the defenders who retreated from Dongning County. They had low morale, insufficient ammunition, and no longer had much combat effectiveness.

The three armies broke through the Japanese defense line one after another and attacked deep into Suifenhe, but they were soon met with stubborn resistance from the original garrison troops in Suifenhe.

The Second Parachute Battalion dispatched the Golden Eagle III and Golden Eagle IV drones, which had been replenished with ammunition, to carry out precision strikes on the Japanese army's main firepower points and artillery positions, eliminating them on a targeted basis.

The Japanese troops, having lost their heavy firepower support, soon found it difficult to withstand the fierce attack of the paratroopers and retreated step by step.

Soldiers from the first and second battalions on both wings quickly followed up and drove the Japanese troops towards the Soviet border.

When they arrived at the Suifenhe border port, the Japanese army attempted to hold their last position in a desperate struggle.

Upon hearing the news, the Majiagou Air Force rushed to the scene and launched a massive bombing on the Japanese troops at the Suifenhe border port.

The entire fortified Suifenhe border port position was reduced to a sea of ​​fire.

After the bombing, soldiers from the 17nd Parachute Battalion and the st and nd Battalions of the th Brigade launched a simultaneous charge to deal a final blow to the remaining Japanese troops.

The remaining Japanese troops were unable to resist and eventually retreated into the Soviet Union's Primorsky Krai.

The First Anti-Japanese Army finally drove all Japanese troops from Mudanjiang City, except Linkou County, out of the Chinese border.

Next, the issue of resolving the Korean division of the Japanese army in Linkou County was put on the agenda.

The Second Parachute Battalion arranged a squadron of paratroopers to garrison the Suifenhe border port to prevent a surprise attack by the Japanese army.

Other troops were temporarily stationed in Dongning County, on the one hand to support the paratroopers in Suifenhe at any time, and on the other hand to prevent the Japanese army from crossing the border and invading Funing County.

The soldiers of the 17st and nd Battalions of the th Brigade immediately returned to their base and prepared to deal with the Japanese troops in Yanbian.

The commander of the 7th Brigade mobilized troops from Hailin County and Muling County to form a pincer attack on the Japanese Korean Division in Linkou County.

Wang Zhuangfei's 4th Brigade soldiers also deployed from Qitaihe to a combat posture against the Japanese Korean Division in Linkou County.

Lieutenant General Sinai quickly transferred the Japanese reinforcements sent to Muling County back to Linkou County to strengthen the defense. However, when the reinforcements returned to the vicinity of Modaoshi Town in Muling County, they were ambushed by a regiment of soldiers from the 7th Brigade.

With heavy casualties, only a small part of the Japanese reinforcements broke through the encirclement of the 7th Brigade and took a detour back to Linkou County.

At this time, the Japanese Korean Division had become an isolated army with no supplies to replenish. It was in a panic all day long, guarding against the devil troops launching an attack on them from Qitaihe, Hailin County and Muling County.

Lieutenant General Sinai had no choice but to send a telegram to Commander Umezu Michijiro requesting for supply replenishment.

The supplies he had were not enough to support a simultaneous battle with the devil's army on three fronts.

With Linkou County surrounded on all sides, Commander Umezu Michijiro was reluctant to abandon the Korean division of the Japanese army. After all, there were still tens of thousands of officers and soldiers there.
