Rebirth of the Military Industry Power of the Anti-Japanese War

But Liu Hailong didn't know that Hu Weidong didn't actually trust Matsumoto Shingo as he said. After all, Matsumoto was too active, which made Hu Weidong worried that he was a spy of the Japanese army, even in the Japanese comfort station in Tianjin.

After rescuing Matsumoto's sister named Xuezi, Hu Weidong was still not completely relieved. Therefore, in this battle, Hu Weidong specifically asked Liu Hailong to let Matsumoto participate in the battle, and asked him to kill the enemy with his own hands, especially the Japanese officers, to test Matsumoto, but the result

It turns out that he is paranoid...

However, it is not necessarily true that Matsumoto is really so revolutionary. What he did in the first place was actually just an impulse under a special environment and atmosphere. However, the Japanese are paranoid. Now that they have done something, they can never look back.

I decided to work for the Red Army honestly, unlike the Chinese who always take chances and often regret it. But at that time, Matsumoto Shingo only had a negative attitude of executing orders when given and waiting when there were no orders. Until the Red Army really

After capturing Tianjin and rescuing Matsumoto's sister Yukiko from the comfort station...

Both of Matsumoto's parents died before he was a minor. He and his sister have been dependent on each other since they were young, and one can imagine the depth of their relationship. In fact, Matsumoto originally joined the army because he wanted to earn a higher income than being a miner (Japanese society is very hierarchical, and it is difficult for civilians to make progress.

What's more, Matsumoto only had an elementary school education, and it was difficult to even enter a factory. If he wanted to have a better life, he could only join the army.

He was deceived into China and ended up in the comfort station. Although they hugged each other and cried after recognizing his sister at that time, Matsumoto, a small soldier, was unable to rescue his sister no matter what. But what he did not expect was that the Red Army

His former enemy rescued his beloved sister. While he was extremely grateful, he was even more convinced by what he had learned in the politics class two days ago...

"Japan is one of the world's great powers, and its economy is much more developed than China's. Why do the majority of the Japanese people still live in poverty and misery? Japanese warlords deceive the people, saying that high tax rates are to accumulate funds to catch up with the West, but Japan's chaebols and

High-ranking officials have much more money than civilians, so why aren’t they willing to pay for it themselves?”

"The soldiers complained that the salary was not enough, so the officers asked us to rob it from the Chinese, but so what if we robbed it? The officers took most of it away, but the soldiers who worked hard and shed blood could only get a fraction...

..And here in the Chinese Red Army, even if there is not enough food, officers will starve together with the soldiers. They have never abused or insulted me, a former enemy..." Shingo Matsumoto thought more and more

It was resentment, coupled with his gratitude to the Red Army for rescuing his sister, that gave him the almost decisive idea to make a clean break with the past. And these enemies who died under Matsumoto's gun are proof that he said goodbye to the past.

....

Other Japanese "liberation fighters" did not have the experience of Matsumoto, nor did they have no worries like him without relatives at home. Their attitudes were obviously much more negative. However, due to Matsumoto's leadership and the deterrence of battlefield discipline, coupled with the long-range killing

Their sense of guilt was relatively small, and they were still able to operate the grenade in their hands more seriously, killing many Japanese officers and machine gunners...

Due to Matsumoto and others' proficiency in Japanese and their proficient skills, the remnants of the Fifth Division soon recognized them as Japanese. This dealt an unprecedented blow to their morale, and eventually some officers began to die in battle.

The small group of Japanese troops who were divided and surrounded by the Red Army abandoned their weapons and surrendered. However, after some of the surrendered soldiers saw Matsumoto and these traitors who were serving the Chinese, they could not help but look with contempt and even taunted them. After hearing this, Matsumoto snorted coldly and said

His clothes were untied, revealing scars all over his body, "While I was fighting for the country, the country sent our sister to a comfort station. I feel sorry for Japan, but Japan doesn't feel sorry for me!"….

Although Matsumoto's experience cannot be said to be extremely common among the Japanese army, it is by no means an exception. Almost every Japanese officer and soldier has at least heard of it. Even if those soldiers who surrendered were deeply poisoned by militarism, they were not stubborn enough.

To the point of ineffectiveness (otherwise they would not have surrendered), everyone shut their mouths after hearing the words. A few of them even resonated with him and soon embarked on the same path as Matsumoto.

The counterattack by Matsumoto and others had a huge impact on the morale of the Japanese army. In addition, in order to achieve a quick victory in this battle, Hu Weidong not only adopted artillery offensive tactics that caused serious accidental injuries, but also imitated the "tear down walls and open roads" method invented by the four fields in history.

, instead of attacking along the streets, they used artillery along a straight line to blast away the houses. To the surprise of the Japanese army, they directly penetrated into the Japanese headquarters in Tanggu. Due to insufficient troops and unpreparedness, the Japanese headquarters was quickly taken away.

, As a result, the remaining Japanese soldiers in Tanggu City were not only forced to fight independently, but their morale was further hit. Soon after, eight extremely powerful 240mm heavy howitzers were also put into the battle.

They were all blown up, and the scene was extremely bloody and tragic. The Japanese army's will to resist was finally completely defeated.

At this point, the 15th Red Army took less than two days to occupy the entire city of Tanggu and annihilated more than 10,000 Japanese troops in the city. They killed more than 7,000 enemies in total, captured more than 5,000 people, and seized more than 10,000 rifles.

, more than 100 light and heavy machine guns, more than 200 grenades, 5 combat artillery, 8 mountain guns, 27 105mm howitzers, 4 150mm howitzers, 13 Type 93 13.2mm anti-aircraft machine guns, in addition, including

Including those that were repaired, the 15th Red Army also seized two light tanks and two armored vehicles each, and more than two hundred cars...

So far, the Eighth Red Army has annihilated nearly 40,000 Japanese troops (not counting armed Japanese nationals, but including Japanese officers in the puppet army and non-combatants in the Japanese army). During this period, Snow, who has been accompanying the army, "comes first to the nearest water tower."

"Month", made an exclusive report on this within the scope allowed by the Red Army, which shocked the world in one fell swoop. The domestic people and overseas Chinese were even more jubilant. You must know that the previous "December 28" Songhu Anti-Japanese War and the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War wiped out countless enemies.

Only a few thousand. The Japanese army naturally strongly denied this, and Chiang Kai-shek's imperial literati also wrote articles claiming that the results were exaggerated and untrue. However, in the photos that were subsequently released, the rows of Japanese heavy artillery and cars captured by the 15th Red Army,

The tanks and armored vehicles were undoubtedly irrefutable evidence, and the national government and Japan were immediately speechless.

In fact, a large part of this equipment was seized from the Fengtai warehouse, but it is impossible for Japan to disclose the truth about the fall of Fengtai. Only 90 military police were assigned to guard such an important warehouse, and the enemy took advantage of it. This kind of embarrassing thing

Are they embarrassed to announce it to the outside world? But the acknowledgment that the Japanese army was wiped out 40,000 people also made them lose face internationally, and the result of this battle attracted special attention from the two strong men...
