Chapter 311: All the puppet troops in North Manchuria changed their surnames to Ding
If you don't make a sound, you'll make a splash. This is the effect Ding Wei wants.
The armored division pushed into Qi City with great force. Zhou Weiguo was in charge of the front line to further clean up the Japanese and puppet troops in the territory.
The Fourth Column turned toward Baichengzi and took an offensive posture, with its spearhead pointing toward the Nenjiang River, with the intention of pressing toward Harbin.
The First Column also entered combat status and targeted the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army.
Needless to say, the Third Column was responsible for the Fengtian line and pushed its troops towards the Liaohe area.
The mobilization of the main forces of the three columns showed a strong desire to attack.
Whether they are elite soldiers or not depends on their condition. One glance is enough to distinguish between new recruits and old soldiers. The difference between the two is as big as heaven and earth.
A single company can be deployed for defense, and its combat effectiveness can be comparable to that of a Japanese squadron.
The situation between the two sides was tense and once again on the verge of breaking out.
It seems that the second ceasefire agreement was thrown into the toilet by Ding Wei.
The Kwantung Army was furious, but also felt helpless. It no longer had the ability to launch an offensive offensive and was in a defensive posture.
Use fortifications, cities, and mountains to build a defense line.
Any territory can be given up, so be prepared for a protracted war.
The Fourth Army suffered a great loss and had to retreat to the Hyrule Fortress area in disgrace.
The loss of more than 6000 soldiers was a small pain for the entire Fourth Army of to people.
The good news was that many overseas Chinese were mobilized to replenish the lost troops. The bad news was that the Japanese were caught between the Trans-Baikal Front and Ding Wei's Armored Division.
The Trans-Baikal Front assembled 53 troops, most of whom were front-line troops transferred from the west and had just participated in the main force on the European battlefield.
They have the strongest combat power and the most weapons and equipment.
Once the army launches an attack, it will inevitably have to cross the Greater Khingan Range and penetrate the Hailar fortress area.
At this time, they seemed to understand Ding Wei's intention, and forced all the Japanese to the Hailar line, forcing the Fourth Army to face the Trans-Baikal Front.
The possibility of retreat was cut off. The armored division and reorganized troops were on high alert, setting up artillery and giving the Japanese no chance to retreat.
The Fourth Army could only hold the fortress and fight desperately with the Far East Army.
No matter what the outcome, this force would certainly be wiped out, and the Trans-Baikal Front would inevitably lose 3 to 5 troops if it stormed the military fortress.
This is a naked conspiracy. If the Far Eastern Army wants to send troops to the Northeast, it must cross the Greater Khingan Range and the Japanese Hailar Fortress.
This is a step that cannot be avoided.
Only by breaking through it can we have the opportunity to come to Manchukuo to plunder.
There are many puppet troops stationed on the North Manchuria Railway, and at this moment they are like ants on a hot pan.
The Far Eastern Army is about to attack, and the Suirecha Military Region has already attacked. On the surface, the Far Eastern Army and Ding Wei are in the same group, both aiming to wipe out the Kwantung Army.
The Japs are about to be finished, so what will happen to their lives?
The northern part of North Manchuria is a large area where bandits are active. It is also a lawless area where bandits are rampant.
Some of them gathered in groups of seven or eight thousand people, roaring through the mountains and forests, and were not easy to deal with.
Nowadays, the bandits are also terrified, fearing that the Eighth Route Army will attack and launch a siege on the mountainous area.
After taking over Qi City, Zhou Weiguo, according to Ding Wei's instructions, first recruited the puppet troops.
After demonstrating the strength of the armored division, the reputation of the Suirecha Military Region became unparalleled, and it defeated two divisions and an independent mixed brigade with great ease.
With such strength in mind, the puppet army had no intention of resisting.
Wu Baoyun of the Provisional 1st Division, who had secretly defected to Harbin, also began to prepare to turn their guns around. All they needed was Commander Ding's order, and they would immediately start attacking the Japanese.
The rest of the guys active on the North Manchuria Railway had no other choice in their minds.
It was already 1945, the Japanese would soon be finished, and these people had no better place to go.
Either they were eliminated or they were recruited by Ding Wei and incorporated into the Northeast Security Command.
There are more than 15 puppet troops in Manchuria. These puppet troops have undergone formal military training. If they can speed up the improvement of military discipline, they can still be used.
The combat effectiveness of the puppet army has always been a mystery. Some of them are particularly good at fighting, some are particularly good at fighting after surrendering, and some are simply funny.
The simplest way to recruit troops is to disrupt the allocation, and then arrange reliable officers to equip a battalion and company team.
Li Yunlong knew that if one soldier is incompetent, the whole army will be incompetent as well.
Whether the troops can fight or not does not depend on the grassroots soldiers, but on whether the officers are reliable.
Who would really work for him if he sucks the blood of soldiers and withholds their pay?
On the contrary, most grassroots soldiers are quite capable of fighting. Whether they are puppet troops or national troops, as long as they are willing to fight, the combat effectiveness they unleash is considerable.
We must first solve the ideological problem, then solve the chaotic military discipline of the puppet army, and arrange for political commissars and regimental-level cadres to be transferred to Qi City.
This time, Ding Wei wanted to take over all the puppet troops of Manchukuo in one go.
In addition to incorporating the puppet army, Zhong Zhicheng personally led the organization to Qi City, Baichengzi, and Tongliao areas to carry out land reform, distribute land, and overthrow the three mountains.
This will liberate towns and villages and free a large number of poor people.
Call on young people to join the army and use the weapons in their hands to defend their homes and the newly divided land.
According to preliminary estimates, Zhong Zhicheng can train about 5 militiamen and new recruits as a reserve force and intensify their training.
There were rifles on hand, tens of thousands of repaired Type 98K rifles, which could be used by new recruits and militiamen, and there were also many captured Japanese Type rifles.
Not to mention the hundreds or thousands of new guns that Ding Wei rewarded from time to time, including Type 38 rifles, water-breathing rifles, Soviet semi-automatic rifles, and submachine guns, as long as the troops were equipped with these weapons.
Any ambush battle can gain bonuses for ammunition and firearms.
The military factories in the rear can also steadily output ammunition and firearms, including 50mm mortars, grenade launchers, rifles, Jin-made rifles, etc.
There is no need to worry about weapons and equipment. As long as there are soldiers, Ding Wei can take out guns immediately.
His main concern was the North Manchuria Petroleum Company. After taking over, he continued to drill down directly on the basis of the original drilling wells of the Japanese.
When the Japanese drilled to a depth of 1100 meters, they only needed to go down 300 meters to hit the large oil field below. Ding Wei knew this very well.
We devoted some of our energy to keeping a close eye on the Japanese workers, while at the same time training our own people and learning the Japanese's oil technology.
It took 15 days from taking over to continuing drilling. Just after Zhou Weiguo captured Qi City and controlled the local area, oil began to ooze out from the well continuously.
This made the Japanese workers confused. It was impossible. They had explored this place many times and there was no oil.
How come when it came into Ding Wei's hands, he could feel oil with one hand?
Although shale oil is of poor quality, difficult to mine and difficult to refine, overcoming difficulties is better than having nothing.
Even though it is difficult to mine and refine, it will eventually produce oil, and we can eventually produce it ourselves.
The chemical plant under the North Manchuria Company tests the oil quality and analyzes the impurities in it, especially the acids and waxes, which require special treatment.
In any case, this is worth celebrating. The Japanese workers are relatively pure. They have been exploring here for more than ten years and finally have achieved results.
