Bright Sword: Starting from the Improved Grenade

Liaodong Peninsula, inside the Tianjin Joint Navy and Army Temporary Command.

"Teacher Xu is still a little impulsive in doing things!"

Looking at the telegram coming from the front line, Chief of Staff Zhang shook his head and sighed.

"This matter needs to be dealt with seriously!"

Political Commissar Li said angrily, "Does he still look like a division commander of the Eighth Route Army?"

"We are the people's army, not bandits. He arrested all the people. What does this look like?"

The naval officers standing by were all watching, not daring to say anything.

"Suspend him first and keep him employed!"

At this time, Commander Luo spoke up: "The situation of the tank regiment was very dangerous at the time. It is understandable that Commander Xu did something bad in a moment of panic."

"And our headquarters is also responsible for this matter!"

"We didn't take the local sentiment into consideration. If we are to punish someone, I, the commander, should be punished first!"

"commander!"

Everyone looked at Commander Luo in surprise!

"That's it. I will review this matter in front of the entire army after the war is over. As for Commander Xu, I will give him a punishment first. After all, he will be needed in the future battles!"

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

Seeing that Commander Luo said this, Chief of Staff Zhang and Political Commissar Li were at a loss for words.

Strictly speaking, those who sit in the command center really have to take responsibility, and the current situation is the best possible one.

"Haha, we agree too!"

The matter was over, and officers at all levels of the navy also smiled and raised their hands to express their agreement!

"Okay, let's get down to business!"

Commander Luo called everyone to the sand table: "I have ordered the troops to stop attacking!"

"The enemy is desperate to protect Tonghua!"

"The Japanese troops in Heilongjiang and Harbin are already heading towards Tonghua!"

"At the same time, Tonghua has a lot of anti-aircraft firepower. It is difficult for our fighters and bombers to carry out large-scale bombing of Tonghua!"

"The Japs are clearly trying to run away!"

Commander Xiao touched his chin and said, "It seems that if we want to capture Tonghua, we have to bleed a lot!"

"So the commander-in-chief gave us an order to attack Tonghua. We need to make a big noise, but there is no need to actually fight!"

Commander Luo took out a telegram: "The greater the pressure on our side, the easier it will be for friendly forces on other routes to capture the city guarded by the Japanese!"

"what!"

Commander Xiao was a little surprised: "Are you not planning to completely wipe out the Kwantung Army?"

"The weak army will win!"

Commander Luo smiled faintly and said, "The Northeast is about to be conquered, so it is better for us to save our energy to retake the South!"

"makes sense!"

In the next few days, the Tianjin Army stopped its offensive and just kept accumulating troops in Fengcheng City.

Seeing that the military strength of Fengcheng was about to exceed 100,000, Hou Gong Chun in Shenyang began to get anxious.

This location is too dangerous. The enemy can not only threaten Tonghua, but also Shenyang.

What if the Eighth Route Army was planning to wait for other troops to arrive so as to surround Shenyang and kill him as the commander of the front?

In order to survive, Hou Gongjun once again contracted the defense line, moved the headquarters directly to Tonghua, and used Shenyang as the front line of resistance.

Hou Gong Chun's retreat immediately caused a chain reaction.

In less than a week, the Peking Front Army and the Tianjin Front Army met in Yingkou to discuss the next combat plan!

The Meijin devils in Xinjing were also ready to escape.

"Commander, Jingfu Lilang is back!"

Just as the Umezu devils were packing up their documents and preparing to flee, Kasahara Yukio walked in and whispered.

Hearing this, Meijin the devil paused and said, "Let him in!"

"Yes!"

"Commander, I'm sorry!"

Jingfu Lilang, who was covered in dust, knelt on the ground as soon as he came in, hugged the legs of the Umezu devil and cried.

"The Eighth Route Army has no moral principles and sent bombers to bomb our joint support forces continuously!"

"You get up first!"

The Meijin devil helped Jingfu Lilang up and said, "I personally handed over 300,000 troops to you. Now tell me, how many people did you bring back?"

"Eighty-two thousand people!"

Jing Fulilang hesitated and said, "The Eighth Route Army killed more than 60,000 of us at most, and most of the soldiers were scattered. Give me some time and I can gather the remaining soldiers together!"

"no need!"

Meijin devil said calmly: "Come here, take him away!"

The door opened with a creak, and two soldiers with guns walked in.

"No!"

Jing Fulilang's pupils shrank and he wanted to stand up, but two soldiers stepped forward quickly and locked Jing Fulilang up with one shoulder each.

"I have made contributions to the empire, I have shed blood in Lushun, Commander, please spare my life, please spare my life..."

Looking at Ifu Ryōrō being dragged out, Meizu the devil did not feel any pity at all. Instead, his face was full of viciousness. It was because of this guy that he had no choice but to flee to Korea in embarrassment!

"boom."

After a gunshot, Yukio Kasahara walked in: "Commander!"

"Gather the soldiers brought back by Jing Fulilang and send them to Tonghua by train."

The Umezu devil ordered.

"Hi!"

...........

A week later, the Japanese invaders from Meijin brought some Chinese who were unwilling to leave but had relatively important identities to Tonghua.

At the same time, due to the large-scale departure of Japanese soldiers, the Eighth Route Army's speed of advancing the front line became faster.

Although Mayukichi tried his best to make the Manchurian soldiers braver, it turned out that neither throwing money nor forcing them with their relatives had any effect.

On the contrary, in some cities, the pressure was too harsh, and the local Manchurian army directly rebelled, cut off the heads of the imperial army guarding the city, and surrendered to the Eighth Route Army outside the city.

Everyone in the Northeast now feels that the Japanese are about to be finished, so the Eighth Route Army is fighting more and more smoothly, as if the entire Northeast is helping them!

Of course, Manchus, Japanese and Koreans are excluded!

Tongliao, Front Committee Headquarters.

"According to the battle report, the Japanese army has been blocked by us in Shenyang, Xinjing, and Harbin!"

The chief of staff held a baton, pointed at the sand table and preached to everyone present.

"Heilongjiang has also been recaptured by the Anti-Japanese United Army. They are now attacking Mudanjiang. Once they take Mudanjiang, they can join forces with the Tianjin Front Army to besiege Tonghua!"

"There's not enough time!"

The commander-in-chief looked at the sand table and said: "After Mudanjiang, there is Changbai Mountain, a mountain range, and there is also Jilin lying in the way. The people of the Anti-Japanese United Army still have a long way to go if they want to reach Tonghua!"

"It seems we have to rely on ourselves to fight our way through!"

An officer looked at the enemy and our situation and said helplessly.

"There's no other way, let's fight!"

Two days later, the general offensive began, with gunfire ringing out in Shenyang, Siping, Xinjing, and Harbin.

At the same time, Chen Bingfeng's Tianjin Army attacked Tonghua again.

This forced the Meijin devils, who had originally wanted to rely on a few strong cities to resist, to give up their original idea.

Start organizing troops to cross the river and enter North Korea!
