At 9:18 p. m. on February 12, 1918, the command center of the Japanese army's South Manchurian railway in the south of Huanggutun railway station was on full alert almost at the same time as the explosion at the Liutiao Lake railway hub. The friction between the Feng army and the Japanese army had not been a day or two...
................................................................................................................
In the past, there were many small conflicts, especially some conflicts in training. The live ammunition training of the Feng army always made a lot of noise, so the Japanese army had always opposed it. However, according to previous regulations, the Japanese only had the right to station troops in a small area along the railway. As Fengtian Province, the Feng army had the qualifications to train anywhere, so they naturally would not retreat. The most intense one was almost met with heavy machine guns. Therefore, This was also the reason why the Japanese had sent another infantry unit to the Huanggutun train station.
"What's going on? Is it the location of the Willow Lake railway hub?？”
Sakagaki Seishiro was still sorting out the next strategic plan for Fengtian. From the information he had obtained from various sources, the current Fengtian army was already equipped with a large number of high-quality firearms. Moreover, from the military training of the Fengtian army near the railway station, this army that he had once looked down on had made great progress in a short period of time.
Therefore, he had to ask the General Staff of the Kwantung Army for instructions. No matter what, they had to increase the threat level of the Feng Army. If they did not pay attention to this opponent, many of the Empire's plans in the northeast would definitely fail.
But tonight, just now, Sakagaki Seishiro heard an explosion, like a bomb suddenly exploding. Moreover, it was very close to this location...
Almost all the soldiers of the Imperium realized that tonight was destined to be extraordinary…
"Report!"
"It has been confirmed that at 9:18, the railway at the Willow Lake railway hub was completely detonated by an unknown force. A large section of the railway has been destroyed!!”
"At the same time, at the railway hub, a few patrolling soldiers were attacked by an unknown force!!”
Sakagaki Seishiro almost slammed the table and stood up. His gaze immediately became fierce. This was a conspiracy, a conspiracy of the Fengjun. The father and son of the Zhang family finally made a move.
And in such a despicable and shameless way.
"Kawamoto! Mobilize the infantry immediately and keep an eye on the train station!!”
"The Chinese came prepared. It can't be that simple!”
All the Japanese officers present were a little flustered. They had no choice. In the past few months, the huge Feng army had been pressing down on them.
He Benmo seemed to have heard some good news. He had been waiting for this day for so many years. Those Chinese pigs would never know the terror of the Imperial Army.
Since Feng Jun wanted to die so badly, how could he not want to fulfill his wish!!
Sakagaki Seishiro's subconscious thought was to immediately inform the Guandong region of the conspiracy of the Fengjun. With just the strength of the two infantry brigades in Huanggutun, no matter how strong their combat strength was, it was impossible to bridge the gap in numbers.
"Electricity, immediately generate electricity for the Guandong region!!”
"Staff officer, our power has been cut off.。”
Sakagaki Seishiro's head also sank. The Fengjun's plan this time had probably been prepared for a long time. Perhaps, even the Anfeng railway had been cut off.。
The Guandong Army would not be able to provide reinforcements, and the two infantry brigades would be like turtles in a jar…
"Use the backup generator and send the news to the Guandong region!!”
Sure enough, a few minutes later, the news came that the railway in the west of Benxi railway station had suffered a huge explosion, just like the railway hub at Liutiao Lake. At the same time, the telegram said that the local garrison had discovered a large number of Feng army troops and had even carried out the first round of probing infantry artillery fire coverage. However, the first round of fire by Feng army used solid bullets. The reason was very simple. Firstly, it was to worry about the civilians near Benxi railway station, and secondly, it was to give a thorough warning. It was impossible to reinforce Fengtian from the railway.
Sakagaki Seishiro's scalp went numb. He was not sure how many soldiers the Fengjun had mobilized to besiege the railway station...
"Report!"
" In the direction of the railway station, in the northwest of Fengtian City, a large number of soldiers have appeared. The enemy claims that they are at the railway hub at Willow Lake. The imperial army has killed two soldiers and deliberately destroyed the railway. Now, the imperial army wants to completely seal off the railway station and all the factories, businesses, and diplomatic offices of the empire in Fengtian City..."
Such thunderous methods and lightning speed finally made Sakagaki Seishiro a little afraid. The Feng army was going to completely annihilate their army.
In the northwest region of Fengtian City, the army of the Third Infantry Brigade of the First Division followed the prescribed rules strictly. They suspended the operation of the power plant, closed the diplomatic office of Fusang, and sealed off all commercial shops to control the freedom of all Fusang citizens.。
"Baka, you are breaking international law. Why are you imprisoning us? Why are you shutting down the power plant?!”
"Chinese pig, you have no right to imprison us or restrict our movements. You will suffer the wrath of the empire, just like the 1894 - 1895 War.!”
A few Japanese samurai rogues didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. In front of them were fully armed soldiers. The provocation just now could make these soldiers lose their minds at any time.
As expected, the brigade commander of the 3rd Brigade of the 1st Division, Wang Zhongye, immediately shot and killed the Japanese Ronin who had spoken rudely. When the sudden gunshots and the Japanese people who had fallen to the ground saw this scene, fear finally rose in their hearts. These soldiers of the Feng Army would not be frightened by the Empire. If they were angered again, everyone here would probably die tonight.。
"Men, get rid of the corpse for me. If anyone blocks our Fengjun from carrying out the mission, kill them without mercy!!”
Wang Zhongye's order was to strictly control the northwest region. The commander gave him the authority to kill people if necessary. Of course, if they really wanted to kill all these civilians, Fengtian would definitely be criticized by many factions. The current Fengtian army did not have the strength to do so. If the Japanese went crazy and really attacked Fengtian at all costs, the Fengtian army would not be able to resist.
The deathly still air made the Fusang people suddenly regret coming to this place. They should have stayed in the Guandong Region obediently. At least there was an army there to protect them.
Fang Ze, the diplomatic representative of Fusang in Fengtian, was also in the house. Through the window, he saw the bloody scene on the street. The power plant was shut down, and all the power was cut off. The changes tonight would probably shock the entire empire...
"Mr. Fang Ze, the telegram has been sent to the Imperial Foreign Affairs Office through the backup generator..."
........................................................................................................................
Beep beep beep.
Beep beep beep.
In Liancheng, Guandong Province, a few hundred kilometers away from Mukden, two minutes after the explosion of the Wicker Lake railway, the Guandong Division's communication unit received an emergency telegram from Sakagaki Seishiro. After the communicator deciphered it, his expression changed drastically. He knew what this incident meant.
"I, General Zhuang Fan, have received an emergency telegram from Staff Officer Ban Yuan. The Feng army has made a move in the direction of Fengtian City!”
A middle-aged man with a small mustache sat in front of the desk. As the highest general of the empire in the northeast, Lieutenant General Ben Zhuangfan, the commander of the Guandong Division, had been promoted to this position after graduating from the Imperial Military University. In the end, it was because of the war. After every war, his military rank could be raised.
When Ben Zhuangfan heard this news, he immediately received the telegram. His expression changed and he quickly stood up. This experienced lieutenant general began to give the order for the troops to gather.
Judging from the telegram, the Fengjun army must have wanted to eat up the Empire's infantry brigade. Moreover, the many factories and civilians in Fengtian were probably under control.
"Immediately give the order for all the soldiers of the Guandong Regiment to gather and reinforce Fengtian City!!”
At the northern part of Huanggutun Train Station, the Japanese Army's Infantry Battalion surrounded the entire camp. The Japanese must have expected this day to come. The periphery of the camp was filled with fortifications. There were even some trenches, barbed wire, logs, and other defensive tools used for training.
It was 9:30 pm, just 12 minutes after the train explosion. During this time, the 1st Brigade occupied the moral high ground in front of the Japanese infantry barracks. They were refused to patrol the Japanese barracks, so they had no choice but to mobilize the army and seal off the entire barracks.
" Baka, Zhang Yuting is really shameless. He used such a despicable method to launch an attack. Kawamoto, the warriors of the empire will never be afraid of the plot of the Chinese. Give the order to attack. The infantry camp is a defensive fortification. If the Fengjun wants to attack, they will have to pay a huge price!”
"Kikuchi, why aren't you saying anything? Didn't you say that Zhang Yuting wouldn't risk a war?？”
A few young officers of the army were also aggressive. The sudden change made them, who were originally high and mighty, panic. They began to worry about what would happen to the Imperium if they lost the war.？
Although these warlike officers were looking forward to the war and hoped that after the war, they would be promoted and rich, they were not sure about this war that they were not even prepared for.
Kikuchi's eyes were a little dull. He seemed to be thinking about how Zhang Yuting had promised him last week that Fengtian would only develop the economy and would not use force...
Unfortunately, the current Feng army was basically under the direct command of Zhang Hanze. Zhang Yuting could only act as a cover to confuse people like Kikuchi and Yoshizawa. The self-righteous Japanese devils did not know that Zhang Hanze would never play by the rules.
"Battalion Commander, this bunch of Japanese must be thinking of being cowards…"
In the northern direction of the Japanese infantry camp, the 1st Brigade and 2nd Regiment were the main attacking force. Whether the Japanese agreed or not to this so-called military inspection, the Feng army would fight.
It was impossible for the Japanese to open the military camp.
"Wait a little longer. I've already received instructions from the regiment commander. The artillery regiment is adjusting the firing angle and position. The poor Japanese might still think that we don't dare to attack.”
Jin Baoshi, the commander of the 2nd Regiment and 3rd Battalion, was also calculating the time. Once the artillery regiment attacked, the infantrymen would immediately charge according to the plan.
In the command center of the 1st Division, Zhu Dongxu and Tong Linge were also waiting for the artillery regiment to arrive. Once the artillery regiment was ready, the attack on the Japanese infantry camp would immediately begin.
The Japanese were also waiting for the Feng army to attack. As the defending party, they could not come out of the camp and expose themselves to the Feng army as live targets.
"Report, just received a call. The artillery regiment is ready!!”
Zhu Dongxu and Tong Linge's eyes lit up with joy. They were finally ready. Although it was a little late to prepare a generous gift for the Japanese, it would definitely be very exciting.
"Order all artillery units in the artillery regiment to fire immediately!!”
