Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

Even Kong Jie's troops, which had not been discovered before, were confirmed to have remained in Arshan when the 4th Division was destroyed.

Li Yunlong had no other troops at all. At least, from what he knew about Li Yunlong's military organization, there were no other troops.

Moreover, although Birobidzhan was empty, Li Yunlong's troops wanted to fight from Manchuria to Birobidzhan, and the cities ahead could not have been unaware of it.

Although Birobidzhan is close to the Heilongjiang River, Li Yunlong's troops have no navy or ships, and it is impossible for them to appear around Birobidzhan by boat.

Moreover, the Japanese controlled many cities and towns around Heilongjiang, and no ships passed through here.

If we go around from the north of Siberia, there are also Japanese troops stationed in the north. Although their number is not large, there are only a few roads in the northern part of Siberia that can be used by people. A large army passing through will inevitably be discovered.

This army seemed to appear in Khabarovsk suddenly without any warning.

"Commander, the attacking force has entered the city. For your safety, you should temporarily move!"

At this point, Khabarovsk was severely undermanned, with only two regiments and just over 5,000 Japanese soldiers. However, the enemy attacking Khabarovsk was estimated to number over 10,000, perhaps even more, and they were armed with heavy weapons. The city walls had collapsed, and the enemy had already entered.

If we don't retreat now, it may be too late.

At this time, outside the Japanese headquarters in Birobidzhan, the reconnaissance team sent by Kong Jie had already arrived.

Chapter 651: Calm down, don't be impulsive

"Captain, there are still quite a few people in the Japanese headquarters, including the military police!"

At the entrance of Commander Michijiro Umezu's headquarters, more than 20 members of the reconnaissance team took a look around and found that the chances were slim.

Li Yunlong likes to attack the Japanese headquarters, and now the officers and soldiers under Li Yunlong also like to take down the Japanese headquarters.

Corps commanders or column commanders like to launch surprise attacks on command posts. Even some battalion commanders and regimental commanders, after the battle begins, will think about whether they can destroy the enemy's command post with one shot or send a small team to sneak over.

Generally speaking, corps commanders and column commanders like to eliminate division or higher-level command headquarters, while regimental commanders and battalion commanders like to eliminate the Japanese regiment command headquarters.

In the Battle of Cangyunling that year, Li Yunlong killed the Sakata Regiment Command with a single shot, and defeated the Sakata Regiment, which was known as the elite among the elite of the Japanese at that time, head-on.

Later, the Japanese also summed up their experience and realized that when fighting with Li Yunlong's troops, they must strengthen the protection of the command center and never let Li Yunlong's troops easily take down the command center.

Influenced by this habit, although Khabarovsk only had two regiments, another regiment was stationed at the headquarters. Even when gunfire was heard at the city gate, these devils did not leave, but instead strengthened patrols around the headquarters.

At the same time, the various machine gun positions and outposts of the headquarters were guarded by Japanese soldiers, who strictly checked people entering the headquarters to prevent disguised raids.

"Captain, we didn't have any weapons when we entered the city. The comrades from the Northeast Bureau hid a few grenades and a small pistol, and we only had twenty rounds of ammunition!"

"And some wine to make simple incendiary bombs!"

The inspection before entering Khabarovsk was quite strict, and this group of team members were not allowed to bring any weapons or equipment when they entered the city.

The six grenades, a small pistol and twenty bullets were given by the comrades of the Northeast Bureau lurking in the city of Khabarovsk. These were also the weapons used by the comrades of the Northeast Bureau to defend themselves in Khabarovsk.

There was no other way. The Japanese occupied Birobidzhan last year and carried out a purge. Comrades from the Northeast Bureau only entered Birobidzhan in the early spring. It took them two or three months to obtain a stable identity. After that, they went through great difficulties to get a radio station.

They didn't prepare much in terms of weapons, and they didn't expect their troops to reach Blagoveshchensk so quickly.

Twenty-plus people, six grenades, a pistol, and some homemade Molotov cocktails were simply not enough to go around. Even if everyone in this squad rushed forward, the weapons in the hands of the Japanese were not vegetarian.

"Captain, we've already arrived at the gate of the Japanese headquarters. I'd be remiss if I didn't take him down!"

Captain Zhang Wenhao was the calmest at this time and was not overwhelmed by the command center in front of him.

"Don't worry, the commander said that we need to use our brains to fight. If we have weapons, we will use them. If we don't have weapons, we will use our brains to deal with the devils! Our main force has already attacked the city and will soon break in. We just need to hold back the devils in the headquarters and prevent Mei Jing Meijilang from escaping!"

Zhang Wenhao finished speaking, looked at the surrounding terrain and said, "This little Japanese headquarters is built like a fortress. We definitely can't rush it! Don't be impulsive!"

"Captain, what do we do?"

Zhang Wenhao squinted his eyes and looked at the Japanese command center, then squatted on the ground, took out a stone and started drawing on the ground.

"This is the Japanese headquarters. There's only one entrance and exit, the main gate. There are a lot of Japanese here, and we don't know the situation inside. Let's do this first, to panic the Japanese. You guys take the simple incendiary bombs we made and go to the side of the Japanese headquarters!"

"Throw these incendiary bombs into the enemy headquarters, then shout, 'Li Yunlong's troops are coming!'"

"After that, run! Find a place to hide."

"Leave this front to me. Leave six of you, each with a grenade and a Molotov cocktail. Follow my orders!"

"Our troops are about to enter the city, and the Japanese headquarters will definitely have to move. We don't have weapons, so we can't directly destroy the Japanese headquarters like Zhang Yingcai and his men did, but we can hold them off and prevent the Japanese in the headquarters from escaping!"

"Remember, our mission is to hold the devils back. Don't be impulsive. Just drop your belongings and run. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

At this time, inside the Khabarovsk headquarters.

A group of Japanese staff officers were hurriedly packing up their things, and there were some confidential documents that they could not take away, so they prepared to burn them on the spot.

"Commander, the vehicle is ready and everything is normal!"

Meijing Meijiro was pacing back and forth, his heart filled with confusion and anger, but at this moment he had no choice but to move forward. The defenders in Khabarovsk were too few to hold the city.

"Get ready to go!"

Meijing Meijiro stood up and prepared to leave.

He caught a glimpse of Kimura Heitaro and Koiso Kunisho in his peripheral vision, which was also the reason for Meijing Meijiro's anger.

It's embarrassing, and it's embarrassing in front of the people at the Army Headquarters.

Heitaro Kimura and Kunisho Koiso have just arrived in Khabarovsk and are now about to move with the group.

This matter will definitely be reported back to Army Headquarters soon.

Mei Jing Meijiro could even imagine how the people at the Army Headquarters would react when they heard the news.

The Kwantung Army was originally arrogant and looked down on the local army and all non-Kwantung Army personnel.

This incident will probably become a joke in the army headquarters.

But the only good news is that the Army Headquarters probably won't let the Navy know.

Otherwise, he would bring shame to the navy and Mei Jing Meijiro felt that he would have to commit suicide by seppuku.

"Excuse me, Generals, something unexpected has occurred."

Meijing Meijiro forced an explanation, and after hearing it, Kimura Heitaro and Koiso Kunishao just nodded and didn't say much.

Just as the three of them left the operations room and were about to go to the front yard of the headquarters to catch a car.

Suddenly, a simple incendiary bomb was thrown into the yard from outside the high wall of the headquarters.

There was a sound of glass breaking, and then a flame spread throughout the headquarters.

Immediately afterwards, two more incendiary bombs were thrown into the headquarters.

The flames weren't big, but they ignited some things on the ground.

"Molotov cocktails!"

"Extinguishing!"

After discovering the incendiary bomb, some Japanese soldiers wanted to rush over to put out the fire, but were immediately stopped: "Baga, it might be napalm, don't touch the flame, don't touch the flame!"

The news that Li Yunlong's troops burned tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers to death with napalm bombs near Tashan, and also destroyed the army's naval base in Sasebo with napalm bombs, burning 400 fighter planes, 500 tanks, and several transport ships, had spread among the Japanese.

So now when these devils see incendiary bombs, their first reaction is napalm bombs.

These devils also knew the power of napalm bombs. Once they got stuck in them, they would be burned to death and it was difficult to extinguish them.

"The Eighth Route Army is coming!"

"Kill!"

"Little devils, surrender quickly!"

"The Eighth Route Army is attacking!"

Outside the headquarters, the soldiers of the reconnaissance team shouted in a mixture of Japanese and Chinese, causing many Japanese soldiers who did not know the truth to panic.

Chapter 652 The Japanese commander hasn’t run away yet!

"Report, Commander, the Eighth Route Army has reached the headquarters!"

A Japanese staff officer reported to Mei Jing Meijiro in a panic.

Unlike the panicked Japanese soldiers, Mei Jing Meijilang seemed much calmer: "Why panic? At most, a small group of troops are here to harass the headquarters. Everyone, stay alert and don't lose your composure!"

"Hai!"

After hearing Mei Jing Meijiro's words, many Japanese soldiers calmed down and continued to work. Although the Molotov cocktails thrown in had set fire to some places, they were just ordinary Molotov cocktails after all, not napalm bombs. After the Japanese soldiers calmed down, they quickly put out the flames.

Mei Jing Meijilang followed the staff from the war room inside the castle to the front yard. The vehicles were already prepared in the front yard.

"Commander, please get in the car!"

A Japanese staff officer opened the car door and motioned for Mei Jing Meijiro to get in.

Mei Jing Meijilang looked around, then pointed to the gate and said, "Send a car out first!"

"Hayi!"

At this time, in a hidden place outside the Japanese headquarters, Zhang Wenhao and several soldiers were staring closely at the Japanese headquarters.

"Captain, it seems to be of no use. The Japs haven't gotten into chaos."

The soldiers originally thought that Zhang Wenhao wanted to take advantage of the situation. There were indeed Japanese soldiers shouting constantly and there were chaotic footsteps, but now everything has calmed down again, as if the Japanese soldiers have stabilized their position.

"Don't be anxious, wait a little longer!"

Zhang Wenhao said calmly.

At this moment, the gate of the Japanese headquarters opened and a car slowly drove out.

"Captain, there's a car!"

"I see, give me the grenade!"

Zhang Wenhao picked up two grenades, pulled out the safety, waited about a second, and then threw them out with force.

"You two, run to the side immediately to attract the enemy's attention. Remember, run fast and don't get caught by them!"

"Yes!"

At the same time, at the door of the Japanese headquarters, two grenades rolled out of the darkness.

"Grenade!"
