Chapter 28 Chapter 27 Blood Sacrifice Black Land

There is no doubt that the "September 18th" Incident was all invaders called Japanese devils. The first puppet army to appear on the battlefield was Zhang Haipeng, the guardian of Taoliao, who was still wearing the uniform of the Northeast Army.When it arrived, the Japanese army did not hesitate to pay the price, suffered heavy casualties, and dispatched reinforcements from North Korea before crossing the Nen River. Zhang Haipeng, Xiqia and his like took the lead in betraying the country and ancestors and becoming traitors.Yu Zhishan, the guard envoy of Dongbian Road, waited and watched the changes in the situation, and decided that Zhang Xueliang would not leave the customs, so he took action against the Volunteer Army.And people like Wang Zhiyou, Tong Heng, Cheng Zhiyuan and others fought against the Japanese war after the incident, or rebelled after being defeated, or saw that the general trend was gone, and the number of puppet troops increased.

On June 13, 1933, Lieutenant General Koiso Kunizaki, chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, said in his "Speech by the Chairman of the First Committee of the Central Security Council": "Manchukuo's security work is the foundational cause of the great cause. The Kwantung Army cannot do it alone. In particular, various internal and external circumstances do not allow the Kwantung Army to devote itself to security work forever." What Xiaoji Guozhao said is of course not just about the military "crusade", let alone that this important task will be handed over to the puppet army at this time. Foreshadowed.

As mentioned earlier, in the eyes of the Japanese, even if the puppet army is unreliable at this time, it cannot be used.In the fourteenth year of the Puppet Manchukuo, the puppet army reached its peak in the spring of 1933, with 150,000 people, while the Japanese army was less than 50,000.Japan is so big and has such a large population. Regardless of the outcome, this move will have to be taken sooner or later. By 1936, the Japanese army felt that it was almost done.One is that five years have passed, and the puppet army, which is called a "big army" by the common people, whose "conscience is very good (bad)" is somewhat out of line; At the same time, the treatment of the old, weak, sick and disabled was improved, and it was believed that the overall combat power of the puppet army had improved; third, it was proved by practice. Crusade", the effect is good.Moreover, only a few years had passed since July 7, 1937, and the Kwantung Army was still only engrossed in security work in the Northeast. Wouldn't it be even more frantic to "enter" North China?

Let’s listen to Sasaki Toichi, the top advisor of the Puppet Military and Political Department, at the first meeting of the Security Work Members’ Association in the northern part of Dongbian Province on November 24, how he commented on the Dongbian Province’s "independence crusade": This time, the reason why the Manchurian army alone cleared this area is because it is to test the ability of the Manchurian army's existing organization-the existing organization that includes advisers and Japanese people to fight against it. It is completely experimental.The army is watching its results.

Now the imperial army is still bleeding everywhere, and it has used a lot of power for security work, and the sacrifice is obvious to all.If this laborious task can be entrusted to the various organs of Manchukuo and undertaken by them, the imperial army can reduce the burden and engage in its original tasks.Those who understand the mission of the imperial army and undertake the cause of the founding of Manchuria are eagerly looking forward to the arrival of such an opportunity. In April of the same year, the Kwantung Army formulated a "Three-Year Public Security and Suzheng Plan", that is, within three years from April 1936, the trinity of "curing the symptoms", "treating the root cause" and "ideological work" will be eliminated one by one in stages and batches. The Anti-Japanese Armed Forces—the "Independence Crusade" of Dongbian Road, which lasted for half a year, started under this background, and it was also the first "big crusade" to implement the "Three-Year Public Security and Rectification Plan".

This so-called "independent crusade" "without the participation of a single soldier of the imperial army", General Yu Chenzheng, the commander of the puppet 1st military area, will be the commander-in-chief, Sasaki will go to a major general as the "minister of crusade guidance", and several senior commanders High ginseng is also indispensable.Of course, this discounts the word "independence", but if it is truly "independent", will it still be called "Manchuria"? The "Independence Crusade" began on October 1. The puppet troops in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th military districts, as well as the puppet Jing'an army and puppet military police, have a total strength of about 27,000, and there are also local Japanese puppet troops. The key targets were Wang Fengge's People's Self-Defense Forces and the Anti-Union Forces—Wang Detai, Song Tieyan, and Cao Guoan all died during this period.

Wang Fengge, courtesy name Ating, was born in Tonghua in 1895. His father was a teacher and his family was relatively wealthy.After graduating from middle school, he joined the army and became an officer. He resigned soon and returned to his hometown. After the "September 18th" Incident, he fought against Japan. This is a team of more than 200 people. The main members are lumberjacks, and most of the backbone are primary and secondary school teachers. The first battle after pulling up the team was to attack Liuhe County.Along the way, people continued to join in, storming into the city in one fell swoop, destroying the pseudo-county office and the branch of the Japanese consulate in Liuhe, opening the prison, and releasing political prisoners.Taking advantage of the victory, they marched towards Shancheng Town, where the Security Command of the Puppet Dongbian Road was stationed, and defeated the puppet army in Sewer Road.The Kwantung Army and Yu Zhishan quickly dispatched the Japanese and puppet troops to help, and sent planes to bomb Liuhe, causing great losses to the Volunteer Army.

In June 1932, when shovels were everywhere, Tian Desheng, the newly appointed Security Commander of the Puppet Dongbian Road, led a group of puppet troops to Gushanzi, Jinchuan County to "crusade" Wang Fengge.The flowers are red and the trees are green, the cows are lowing and the sheep are bleating, and there are farmers wielding hoes and plows everywhere.Walking to the Luwei forest, there was a sudden gunshot, and the plow and hoe in the hands of the "farmers" turned into knives and guns, rushing to kill them all over the mountains and plains. The "Spring Plowing Picture" suddenly became a "killing the enemy volume", and the first battalion was disarmed before it recovered.The enemy behind fled back to Jinchuan County, and then retreated to Chaoyang Town that night. The false county magistrate also ran away, and the Volunteer Army occupied the county the next day.

After Tang Juwu established the Liaoning People's Self-Defense Army, he appointed Wang Fengge as the commander of the 19th Route Army, and later appointed Wang Fengge as the commander-in-chief of the 3rd Front Lieutenant General, who was in charge of the nearly 10,000 self-defense forces in Hailong, Liuhe, Jinchuan, Huinan and other counties. . On August 25, Wang Fengge led the 19th Route Army to attack Hailong County.The fortifications of Hailong City are strong, there are many defenders, the self-defense army has no heavy weapons, and the casualties are heavy, so Wang Fengge changed to besiege.After besieging the city for more than 50 days, the defenders ran out of ammunition and food. They relied on planes to drop ammunition and went out of the city in the dark to harvest crops.

Tang Juwu and most of the leaders of the other front and road armies entered the pass, but Wang Fengge did not leave. Liuhe County was defeated in the first battle, and Wang Fengge used the county's radio station to send a telegram to the whole country: "Fengge was born in Situ, and he is unwilling to sit by and watch the country fall. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of this country. I call on my compatriots to express our righteous indignation and organize The Volunteer Army...then throw their heads and sacrifice everything. This head can be broken, but this will never change."

Among the Northeast Volunteer Army, there are very few who have persisted in the War of Resistance for a long time, and have a large scale and influence, such as Wang Fengge. With Wang Fengge's talent and courage, it shouldn't be a big problem to join the army and fight for a good future in the Feng army, but this junior officer chose to abandon his weapon and return home.Some analysts believe that he hates warlords fighting and can't bear to kill each other.And when the tragic day of "September 18" came, he rose up, threw his head, and sacrificed everything, including his wife and children. As I said earlier, Feng Zhigang called his team "Civil and Military Team", that is, "Beard Team". In his capacity, the Tangyuan people would not regard him and his team as beards.The same goes for Wang Fengge.A person from a family like him is different from the rich local rich man. He was quite respected in that era, not to mention that many of the backbones of his team are called "Mr." Teacher—who would associate "sir" with a beard? But until June 1935, the "Report of the Special Committee of the Communist Party of China in South Manchuria" still called Wang Fengge "the bearded head of the Kuomintang". On December 29, 1934, "Commander Yang's Report to the Provincial Party Committee on Military and Cadre Issues" (written by the special committee), said: "The counter-revolutionary Kuomintang and bearded heads are even more hostile to us. The methods and means of deception are even more ingenious. For example, the horse brigade used the name of "military commander" to deceive the brothers, and they were unwilling to cooperate with us for a long time. Wang Fengge and others went further with diplomacy and carried out arbitrary propaganda to deceive us. Anti-Japanese Army, in an attempt to prevent the Anti-Japanese Army from approaching us." It is not impossible for Wang Fengge to have misunderstood and prejudiced the Communist Party from the very beginning.Bao Jinghua, commander of the 9th Route Army, who has written a few pens above, is so tolerant of the Communist Party. The Hailong County Party Committee still requires that in his ranks, "call on every soldier to rise up, question the commander, and immediately arrange for the expulsion of the Kuomintang elements and the shooting of the reactionary commander." ", Wang Fengge should have heard and understood more or less.The problem is that the two teams are both operating on the territory of Dongbiandao. Plates collide with bowls, and bowls collide with plates. Conflicts and conflicts are inevitable. In the summer of 1935, the 1st Army, 1st Division and 6th Regiment went to Ji'an to collect opium tax. One company was disarmed by Wang Fengge's Self-Defense Forces, and the company commander, instructor and two platoon leaders were shot dead.Later, when the 1st Division passed through Ji'an Naotougou, it was attacked by the Self-Defense Forces again. The officers and soldiers were furious, and Yang Jingyu asked everyone a question: What should we do with Wang Fengge's team?Should we destroy them, or unite to fight against Japan? A small team is easy to manage, but it is difficult when each other's strength is almost the same. If you start a fight, both sides will lose. Who will listen to whom when united?In North Manchuria, apart from the Japanese and puppets, no force can compete with the powerful 3rd Army.Wu Yicheng of Jidong either couldn't let go of the airs of acting commander-in-chief of the National Salvation Army, or couldn't get rid of his prejudice against the Communist Party, or both.In the end, Wang Fengge did not unite with the 1st Army, and he was different from Wu Yicheng. In May 1934, he was dubbed by the Japanese as "the anti-Manchurian and anti-Japanese bandit giant Wang Fengge of Dongbiandao", and he took the initiative to lead the guards to Heixiazigou near Liudaojiang to meet with Yang Jingyu and reach an agreement to cooperate in the anti-Japanese war.After that, although there were conflicts and frictions, the overall trend of cooperation between the two most powerful anti-Japanese teams in the Dongbiandao area remained unchanged. The Japanese and puppet authorities once commented: "Wang Fengge, the core bandit leader of the South Manchurian political bandits who was incompatible with the People's Revolutionary Army in the past and repeatedly confronted him, also participated in this Anti-Japanese People's Front Movement, expressing his attitude that he is willing to cooperate with the First Army and implement a joint fight." The self-defense army's base area is located in the Daluoquangou, Guosongchuan, and Naotougou areas at the junction of the three counties of Linjiang, Tonghua, and Ji'an.This is the southern foot of the Changbai Mountains, and the Laoling Mountains lie in between. Needless to say, the terrain is steep, and the products are rich, which can be described as unique.In order to persevere in the long-term war of resistance, Wang Fengge managed painstakingly, choosing the terrain to build cottages, bunkers, hundreds of tunnels, as well as grain processing factories, oil workshops, cooking pots, etc. The Japanese and puppet authorities have always regarded Wang Fengge's self-defense army as a serious problem, and they have been "crusting" constantly, especially in autumn and winter.Wang Fengge is good at guerrilla warfare, and the Self-Defense Forces are familiar with the terrain. When large troops enter the mountains, they can't catch them. Small troops can eat them when they see them. More than a hundred people can lure them to suitable places for ambushes.Like the Anti-Japanese Alliance, the closure of the leaves is an active period for the Self-Defense Forces, and small troops attack everywhere. This volunteer army was able to persist in the five-year war of resistance. An important factor was the support of the people. The first thing that was hit hard was the connection with the people. Before the "independence crusade", the Gougouchacha around the base area was almost no man's land, and they were all driven into the "group tribe".And those cottages, bunkers, and tunnels built on dangerous terrain can be described as "advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended", but they can only resist aircraft and artillery for a while. In the deep mountains and old forests, the cottage used to be like a small society outside the world, with collapsed houses and fortresses, snow white and blood red.The big tree, which is as thick as one person and hugged by two people, is burning blazingly in the sea of ​​white forest. "This is the last war" - this is a team that can't sing "The Internationale", but they know that the last moment has come, and several positions are fought to the last man.Wang Fengge commanded the remnants to move to Laohudingzi, resisted tenaciously for three days and nights, and retreated to the 1310 highland until they ran out of ammunition and food. Wang Fengge was wounded and captured during the breakout.This was March 27, 1937, and his wife, children and 8 subordinates were captured at the same time. The enemy set up a banquet at the famous "Dongjiangchun" restaurant in Tonghua City, and invited "celebrities" from all walks of life to "receive the wind" for Wang Fengge.Wang Fengge took a brief look, smiled, and lifted the table with his hand. On April 1, Tonghua City was under martial law, and the puppet Baojia chief went door-to-door to tell people to stand on the side of the road to watch the execution of the "anti-Manchurian and anti-Japanese bandit tycoon" Wang Fengge. The execution ground was set at the gate of Liutiaogou at the foot of Yuhuang Mountain.Wang Feng got off the car, stood still, and said loudly: "Fathers and fellow villagers!"I, Wang Fengge, Tonghua Sheng, Tonghua Chang, you all know my nickname.I died fighting the Japanese during the Anti-Japanese War, and my death was worth it!Folks, don't be discouraged, people's hearts will not die, and the country will never perish!Down with the Japanese!Eradicate the Puppet Manchukuo!Long live the Republic of China! The devil pushed Wang Fengge's wife, Mrs. Zhang, into the small pit that had been dug.Mrs. Zhang hugged her four-year-old son, Xiao Jinzi, and walked into the big pit where her husband fell, saying that we live as humans and die as ghosts, and even ghosts will not spare you! Zhang fell, and the enemy shot Xiao Jinzi.The child cried loudly, and the enemy fired another shot.The child was still crying, and a third shot was fired. Miao Kexiu, formerly known as Miao Kexiu, also known as Jingmo, nicknamed Ernong, was born in Xiamatang, Benxi County, the author's hometown.My father was a farmer, and during the slack hours he started a small business to subsidize the family. Miao Kexiu was born in 1906. He studied in a private school at the age of nine, followed by elementary school and middle school. In 1926, he was admitted to the Faculty of Arts of Northeastern University. After the "September 18th" incident, he went into exile in Peiping, studied at Peking University, and actively participated in anti-Japanese and national salvation activities. On November 5, Zeng and some Northeast students participated in the "Northeast People's Petition Group to Beijing". As one of the leaders, he went south to ask the national government to recover the Northeast. Miao Kexiu once believed in nationalism and fantasized that the Kuomintang could make China strong, so she joined the Kuomintang.The trip to Nanjing made him realize that China's affairs still depend on the power of the people, and that young people in Northeast China should be the first voices to fight against Japan and save the country, and go to the front to kill the enemy and protect their families. In February 1932, Miao Kexiu came to Deng Tiemei's Northeast People's Self-Defense Force and was appointed as the General Councilor of the Self-Defense Force. On August 13, the Self-Defense Forces captured Xiuyan County. Except for guiding Guangang Village to escape, all the Japanese in the city were captured alive.One of the businessmen was willing to redeem the man with 20,000 pairs of rubber shoes, while the Self-Defense Forces wanted 200,000 rounds of ammunition and released them, thus kicking off the two-month-long negotiation. The devil's abacus is to "recommend", Miao Kexiu said that there must be conditions.One is that the Self-Defense Forces are all retained, and no one soldier or soldier shall be demolished; the other is that the garrison is still in place and cannot be transferred; the third is that it is organized according to 3 brigades and 3 independent regiments, and the ammunition and food are reissued; the fourth is that all officers and soldiers wholeheartedly support Commander-in-Chief Deng commanded the team and was not allowed to change the chief. It is impossible for the Japanese to accept such conditions.At that time, the Self-Defense Forces needed to take a breather and take a rest to supplement. The purpose of the negotiation was to deal with the enemy and buy time.In the eyes of the Japanese, don't you bargain for a bigger official hat?It not only saves the "noble blood of Yamato men", but also eliminates "bandits", why not do it? From Hongqibao in Fengcheng County to the county seat, on September 5 the negotiating table was moved to Fengtian.Talk to the Kwantung Army Command first, and then talk to the Puppet Police Department and the Intelligence Department. All departments are greedy for merit and want to "appease" themselves.Miao Kexiu felt that the time was almost up, and proposed to go back and discuss everything with Deng Tiemei. Back in Fengcheng on October 10th, the county counselor Toshizhang Toshida, police officer Shirai Shirai and other five devils also went to see Deng Tiemei with Miao Kexiu, also wanting to take credit for this. The negotiations in the past two months have both advantages and disadvantages.The Self-Defense Forces were misleading, and some people thought that Zhang Xueliang would not leave the customs, and there was no hope for the War of Resistance, so they wanted to make a fake show.Miao Kexiu believes that decisive measures must be taken to cut off these people's thoughts, stabilize the morale of the army, and restore popular popularity.Deng Tiemei agreed and assigned him full authority to deal with it. On the 13th, Miao Kexiu ordered the execution of the five devils and the accompanying interpreter. During the "appeasement" period, although the Japanese and puppet Akari did not make any major moves against the Self-Defense Forces, they were actually dispatching troops and generals. The negotiations broke down, and Tomita and others were executed. The loess ridge near Longwangmiao, where the self-defense army headquarters was stationed, was occupied by the enemy, not only posing a threat to the headquarters, but also losing tens of thousands of yuan in local salt flat taxes. In late October, Miao Kexiu commanded the 1st, 10th, 15th, 18th, and Wushu teams, and fought fiercely in the middle of the night to take it back. On December 8, the Japanese army mobilized heavy troops to attack the Dragon King Temple from Xiuyan, Fengcheng and Andong.Miao Kexiu set up an ambush in the Nest of Ravens in the northwest of Longwang Temple, killing and wounding more than 60 Japanese soldiers.The headquarters of the Self-Defense Forces moved to Jianshanyao, and more than 200 Japanese troops rushed to Wenwen Street to intercept them, but were repelled by Miao Kexiu's army.The Japanese army retreated to Honghualing, and then retreated to Ningjiabaozi, moving the common people's boxes and cabinets to the street to build fortifications.Miao Kexiu commanded troops to surround Baozi. Under the cover of intensive firepower, the Broadsword Squad rushed into Baozi in the dark and killed more than 50 Japanese soldiers. Jianshanyao is the birthplace of the Self-Defense Army and an important stronghold of the Liaodong Triangle Anti-Japanese Zone, which was occupied by the Japanese army at this time.The self-defense army was properly deployed, the artillery fired more than 10 shells, and the charge horn sounded, Miao Kexiu rushed out first.Relying on fortifications, the Japanese army desperately resisted.Miao Kexiu desperately climbed up to the top of the wall and sat on the wall to command. The officers and soldiers were greatly encouraged, and they went forward with all their strength, and finally defeated the enemy. In April 1933, the Japanese army carried out another "big crusade" against the triangle area, and Jianshanyao and other strongholds fell into the enemy's hands again.The Self-Defense Forces suffered heavy losses, turned into the mountains and forests, and insisted on small groups of guerrillas.In the spring of the following year, Deng Tiemei was captured due to betrayal by traitors.Miao Kexiu was greatly mourned, and while gathering up the team, he dispatched elite members to search secretly, and executed the two traitors who betrayed Deng Tiemei. At the end of the year, except for the Young Iron-Blooded Army led by Miao Kexiu in the Triangle area, all other volunteer troops collapsed. On June 13, 1935, when Miao Kexiu led more than 40 iron-blooded troops to camp in Yangjiaogou, Xiuyan County, he was informed by the traitor Liu Ren'an. The puppet army surrounded the village for more than 500 days. Miao Kexiu was seriously injured when he commanded the troops to break through. The soldier Wang Delin rushed out of the siege with him on his back and hid in the mountains. On the 21st, he went to the home of a fellow villager in Beijialing, Fengcheng County to recuperate from his injuries, but was again informed and arrested. The enemy escorted Miao Kexiu to Fengcheng County, and sent him to Anton in an armored vehicle for treatment.Miao Kexiu said: You don't want to get anything from me, so you don't need to pretend to do this. On the afternoon of July 25, Miao Kexiu was tied to a pine tree in the south valley of Fengcheng County.A Japanese military officer said: You killed so many Japanese, and their families demanded that you be executed.If you agree to surrender now, you will not die. Miao Kexiu smiled contemptuously: It is my bounden duty to kill the Japanese.To fight against Japan is not to fear death, to be afraid of death is not to fight against Japan—you just come. Facing the black muzzle of the gun, Miao Kexiu chanted loudly: "Ernong Matsushita's neck is folded and the branches and leaves are luxuriant, and Kexiu will return to the field for a long time to regenerate." In prison, Miao Kexiu wrote two suicide notes, one to her teacher Wang Zhuoran and one to her classmates Zhang Yaxuan and Song Chen.Because the content of the former is expressed in the latter, only the latter is copied here. Brother Yaxuan and Chen: It's been two years since we saw each other, Nian Nian!My brother is now a prisoner of the Japanese ranks. He lays down on the bed and thinks about himself. He can still masturbate.Last night I wrote a book with candles and sent it to Master Zhuo Ran, the main purpose of which was to support Gu.But it is unknown whether this book can reach Wang Shi's side.Let me talk to my brother again today: 1. Passage of suffering: On June 13th, he fought against the Japanese army in Xiuyan. My brother was wounded in the buttock by a shell, which caused serious damage, so he hid in the place to recuperate. On the 21st, he was seized by the Japanese army and died. Second, entrust my brother: (1) Family members: A. My family is extremely poor, as my younger brother knows.My younger brother is tired by me, and I really feel uneasy.My younger brother should plead with Master Zhuo and those who are related to me to try to do less for relief. B. My wife is extremely stupid, my son is still weak, and no one is responsible for the education and upbringing. This brother is most concerned about the matter.Yesterday, I wrote a letter with Zhuo Ran, the general idea is as follows: Xiuyu proposed that my son be named Miao Kangsheng, so that my wife would be a servant in the Wang family, and that Kangsheng should treat Master Wang as his grandfather; Master Wang would regard Kangsheng as his righteous grandson and teach him well.What does my brother think?Everyone should look after me and take care of me at all times. C. It is also a clue to find my seventh younger brother Pei to take care of my family's affairs. (2) One of the other: Brothers and others can buy a place where a cow lies in Xishan, a clothes tomb for Yuying, a short tablet erected, the tomb of Miao Kexiu is engraved on the front, and the deeds are briefly described on the back.Four or five pear trees are planted next to the tomb, and there is a small pavilion. Every holiday, my brother and others must visit here. Every time I come here, I have to call the old seedlings three times.The singing of mountains and the whistling of water, and the singing of birds and insects are all regarded as more songs, more words, more weeping and more complaints (crying is weeping for state affairs, not for private people, so pay attention to this point). (3) Other two: Whenever the country has something to celebrate, my younger brother should inform me of it; if the country has something painful and shameful, my younger brother should also inform me of it. (4) Other three: All the books printed by the Youth League were made by Yu himself. Before Yu was killed, he deleted and edited a few volumes. Brothers and others can consult with Zhao's uncle and nephew, and send them to the Lithograph Bureau to print a few less copies and give them to me. Friends and so on to commemorate.In addition, there are still a few manuscripts of the letter, which can also be printed, and the articles are generally considerable. (5) Other five: Brothers and sisters must be correct in thinking and great in spirit, and we must not forget that we must be the masters of the new China and the masters who will reorganize the mountains and rivers.Don't be discouraged because of one failure in doing things, and don't shrink back because of one danger.We must know that sacrifice is a kind of thing that can be exchanged for hope. Since we have hope, we must sacrifice.But our hope must be justified. Holding the pen in one hand and the paper in the other, I write on my back, so my handwriting is very clumsy, so I won’t talk about it much. goodbye!wish You are healthy!hapiness! Xiyao Fengsheng Your Excellency agrees Brother Miao Kexiu June 24
