In the early morning, in the military camp of Fengtian City and Beidaying, the smoke from the kitchens was rising, and the soldiers on the playground were shouting like thunder. Zhang Xinghan stood in the field in front of the military camp in uniform, looking at the officers and soldiers who were doing morning exercises, and he felt full of emotions.

.

Just half a month ago, Zhang Xinghan accidentally fell into a mountain stream and died during a field military exercise. When Zhang Xinghan woke up, he found himself lying in a barracks of a military camp.

As a Chinese A-level special forces soldier in his previous life, he was no stranger to military camps, but the scene in front of him was very different from the barracks where he lived during his lifetime. There were no smooth plaster walls and no bright light bulbs.

The whole barracks was a little dark, with a few small-wattage yellow light bulbs emitting faint light, and the limestone tile floor looked particularly cold.

After some communication with people around him, Zhang Xinghan learned that his current identity was the commander of the third battalion of the 620th Regiment of the 7th Brigade of the Northeast Army. It turned out that although he fell into the mountain stream and died accidentally in the accident, he came to

In September 1931 (the 20th year of the Republic of China) in Northeast China, he became a battalion commander of the Northeast Army.

Standing in the playground, Zhang Xinghan could not calm down for a long time. Zhang Xinghan had been uneasy for half a month. The day he arrived was September 1, 1931. He counted with his fingers and found that half a month had passed. That unforgettable event for countless Chinese people

National Humiliation Day, September 18th, is coming soon.

However, there was no atmosphere of tense preparations for war in the entire Beida Camp. It was not that the officers and soldiers of the 7th Brigade were unaware of the Japanese army's obvious intentions, but that as the actual commander-in-chief of the Northeast Army, Marshal Zhang had given repeated orders that if the Japanese army invaded, the officers and soldiers of the Beida Camp would fire bullets.

In order to avoid conflicts, the senior officials will come forward to negotiate.

This order was naturally given by the famous Chairman Chiang Kai-shek.

Zhang Xinghan was full of disdain for this non-resistance order, which was regarded as extremely stupid by later generations. It was because of the non-resistance order that the 300,000 well-equipped Northeastern Army was driven out of the four northeastern provinces by the Japanese Kwantung Army without firing a single shot. Thirty million compatriots

They became slaves to the subjugation of the country, and more than one million square kilometers of land fell.

This is a disgrace, a great shame and humiliation for the entire Chinese nation. The 300,000 elite Northeastern Army lost one-ninth of its territory without firing a single shot, leaving tens of millions of compatriots in dire straits and at the mercy of others.

However, Zhang Xinghan was unable to change it at this time, because he was only a battalion-level commander of the Northeast Army and was unable to change the high-level decision-making of the entire Northeast Army.

But there is one thing Zhang Xinghan can do, and that is to train the officers and soldiers of the third battalion diligently. When September 18th comes, he will lead the officers and soldiers of the third battalion to defend the Beida Camp and defend Fengtian City (Shenyang) with their blood! This is an action

A soldier should fulfill his responsibilities. Protect his home and country! Even if he died nine times, he would have no regrets!

……………………

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

On the playground, the officers and soldiers of the third battalion who were practicing stabbings shouted in unison and the sound echoed over the entire Peking University Camp, and Zhang Xinghan also woke up from his meditation just now.

Although Marshal Zhang issued a "non-resistance" order, most of the soldiers of the Northeast Army could not stand the atrocities of the Japanese army. Therefore, the officers and soldiers of various departments did not slacken in training and were always waiting for the Marshal to lead them in a decisive battle with the Japanese invaders.

It's just that the officers and soldiers of the Northeast Army didn't know that when the war started, the absolute leader in their hearts and the soul of the Northeast Army, Marshal Zhang, was going his own way and ignorantly carrying out Chairman Chiang's policy of appeasement.

One hundred thousand Northeastern officers and soldiers abandoned their armor and retreated into the pass without firing a single shot.

Thirty million people were displaced and trampled under the iron hoofs of the Japanese invaders. From then on, they were in dire straits and became slaves of the subjugated country for fourteen years.

Little did they know that the retreat of the Northeastern Army opened the country's gates, and the people inside and outside the pass were devastated by the war. Countless people were destroyed and displaced.

If the officers and soldiers of the Northeast Army knew the result, I think as long as they are still men and the egg in their crotch is still there, they will never be willing to lose their hometown, their fathers and fellow villagers at the hands of the enemy, and become despicable slaves of subjugation! Zhang Xinghan

I secretly thought in my heart.

Although half a month was not long, Zhang Xinghan still taught all the officers and soldiers of the third battalion what he had learned in the army in his previous life. He only hoped that they could learn more enemy-killing skills and be able to fight more in the following battles.

Kill some Japanese invaders.

Although the officers and soldiers of the third battalion obviously lacked understanding of the new training method taught to them by the battalion commander, it is no wonder that how could they know the training method more than sixty years later? This training method was summed up after countless actual combats.

Yes, looking at today, even the most powerful German army in World War II is beyond its reach.

Fortunately, Zhang Xinghan still has a high prestige among all the officers and soldiers of the Third Battalion. Although the officers and soldiers did not understand it, they trained diligently under Zhang Xinghan's guidance.

At this time, a tall and upright officer wearing a colonel's military uniform strode over with his head held high, followed by a guard.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Zhang Xinghan turned around and took a look. He immediately stood up and said, "Regiment seat!" The person who came was none other than Wang Tiehan, the colonel commander of the 620th Regiment of the **7th Brigade of the Northeast Army.

"Yes!" Wang Tiehan saluted back with a solemn expression: "Xinghan, you did a good job!"

"You've won a prize in the regiment. Today, the intentions of the invaders are known to the world. They hold so-called military exercises from time to time, but they are just a cover-up. They really want to seize our four eastern provinces. As soldiers from the four provinces, we shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending the territory and resisting the enemy. We must work diligently to

It's your duty to train more!" Zhang Xinghan said calmly.

"Xinghan, you are right! Pay close attention to your training so that you can serve the country and protect your fellow villagers in the future!" Wang Tiehan nodded.

"Yes!" Zhang Xinghan stood upright and replied without squinting.

At this time, the officers and soldiers had stopped their morning exercises and it was time to have breakfast. At this time, the Northeastern Army was undoubtedly the best among the local warlords in terms of food and equipment, and was not much worse than the Central Army.

Zhang Xinghan turned around and said solemnly: "Everyone is here, disband!"

The entire battalion of more than 700 officers and soldiers immediately dispersed in a rush. It was time to sweat out the training, and it was time to eat green onions and garlic, the favorite of Northeastern Army soldiers, green onions dipping sauce.

At this time, the total strength of the 7th Brigade reached more than 10,000 people, including more than 8,000 combat personnel. It has three infantry regiments, each of which has three infantry battalions, a machine gun company, and a communications platoon. The troops directly under the brigade

There are communications, baggage, machine guns, automobiles and other departments.

Zhang Xinghan's third battalion has three infantry companies, a heavy machine gun platoon with three Maxim heavy machine guns, a light artillery platoon, and four 60mm mortars. The other companies, except for the three infantry platoons, each have an artillery squad, or

One or two 60mm mortars.

This kind of equipment is not common in the Northeastern Army. It was even considered to be one of the best in the country at that time, and it was not much inferior to the Central Army with all German weapons.

**The reason why the 7th Brigade can have such firepower equipment is because the 7th Brigade is the elite of the Northeast Army. It is the direct lineage of Marshal Zhang. It is similar to Zhang Lingfu’s 74th Division and it is Chairman Chiang’s Royal Forest Army. .

Although the 7th Brigade was inferior in organization and personnel to the 74th Division of the Imperial Guard Army later, it was adapted from Zhang Xueliang's Guards Brigade. From the day it was formed, it was regarded by Marshal Zhang as a close relative and the most elite unit in the Northeastern Army. The ace among aces.

This is also the reason why Marshal Zhang deployed the 7th Brigade in Beida Camp. As we all know, Beida Battalion guards the entrance to Fengtian City (Shenyang). The Shenyang Arsenal, the largest arsenal in the country at that time, was behind them. Beida Camp is full of weapons, ammunition, and various equipment. If If the war is urgent, as long as Zhang Xueliang gives an order, the 7th Brigade can instantly open the warehouse and expand the army by one to three divisions.

Because at this time, Fengtian City (Shenyang City) had at least thousands of military police and an astonishing number of retired soldiers. In the early years when the Zhang family and his son were in charge of the Northeast, their military strength once expanded to four to five million. Later, during the Central Plains War, Zhang Xueliang led the Northeast Army to change its flag. After changing the banner and surrendering to the Nanjing government, the Nanjing government reorganized the Northeast Army. Zhang Xueliang also followed the policy of improving troops and simplifying administration and reduced the number of troops to no less than 100,000. Among them, some of the retired officers and soldiers went home to work in farming, and most of them went to Shenyang and other major cities or Worked as a military policeman, gendarmerie, or entered the Shenyang Arsenal as a production worker.

Therefore, once the war begins, as long as Zhang Xueliang gives an order, the weapons and equipment accumulated in Shenyang City are enough to instantly expand twenty divisions or brigades. Of course, these are just assumptions. If Zhang Xueliang truly resists, it is impossible for the Kwantung Army, which is only tens of thousands, to It was impossible to defeat Wang Yizhe's elite 7th Brigade in a short period of time, and it was impossible to capture the entire city of Shenyang in five hours. It was even less possible to capture almost the entire territory of Liaoji Province and Jilin Province in one week, covering an area of ​​more than a thousand miles. .

As long as he gives an order, the more than 200,000 Northeastern Army officers and soldiers staying in the Northeast, the Northeastern officers and soldiers with navy, land and air force, can drive the Japanese Kwantung Army out of the three Northeastern provinces within a week, or even wipe out all of them. The more than 100,000 troops of Japan were able to quickly return to support. Once the Japanese Kwantung Army's offensive was thwarted, its domestic anti-war faction would immediately gain the upper hand, and the humiliation brought to China by the September 18th Incident would not be possible.

It is very likely that the subsequent July 7th Incident and the Japanese army's all-out war of aggression against China can be avoided or postponed, because after the Japanese authorities have a taste of the combat effectiveness and resistance determination of the Squadron, they will not have enough confidence to launch an invasion in a short period of time. Chinese War.

Unfortunately, due to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's "non-resistance order" in Nanjing, hundreds of thousands of Northeastern troops retreated into the pass without firing a shot. The September 18th Incident caused staggering losses in Shenyang City alone, including ten rifles stored in the Shenyang Arsenal. More than 10,000 pistols, more than 60,000 pistols and machine guns, various heavy artillery and more than 200 field guns, and more than 200 aircraft accumulated by the aviation offices of the three northeastern provinces also fell into the hands of the enemy.

In addition to firearms and equipment, there are also countless bullets, artillery shells and other ammunition. The firearms and artillery production lines of Shenyang Arsenal have all fallen into the hands of the enemy.

In addition, the Japanese army looted and looted everywhere after entering the city. According to official statistics, Shenyang lost at least 1.8 billion yuan overnight.
