Chapter 20 Chapter Twenty

For a time, where Ma Zhanshan is has become the key to this "hide and seek" game. Let's use our brains to guess. Gao Bo thought he had the most right to speak, because he followed Ma Zhanshan all day long (in his own opinion).He thought that Ma Zhanshan had gone to his hometown Heihe. Just as Song Mu was about to express his opinion, Shigeru Honjo said it first, not at his Kwantung Army headquarters, but at the scene. If Ma Zhanshan can't be found, not only Songmu is anxious, but Honzhuang Fan is even more anxious. The Battle of Jiangqiao and the siege of Harbin have already made the commander of the Kwantung Army completely frustrated, because he knows that Ma Zhanshan is not an ordinary general of the Northeast Army. With him, it is equivalent to planting a big flag in Heilongjiang and even the entire Northeast. Even if they don't take the initiative to attack, it will be a serious problem for the Kwantung Army.

This guy from Ben Zhuang belongs to the kind of person who is not too high-level, but likes to play and kick himself.Pine is in the front, and you can command it remotely from the back. No, he doesn’t, it doesn’t feel like the scene.In order to find a feeling, he rushed here from Shenyang by plane. As the highest leader, of course, it is necessary to reflect the level and level, so when Ben Zhuang came, he put his hands behind his back, pretended to be inscrutable, and made a serious analysis and judgment. Gao Bo said that Ma Zhanshan might have gone north, and Ben Zhuang waved his finger, meaning: NO, NO, NO.

Chinese translation is: no, no. It's obvious, Ma Zhanshan is at a dead end, will he go north all the time?impossible. Heihe is a small city, he can't defend it, he can only sneak into the Xing'an Mountains, how can he survive in a place where birds don't lay eggs? This killed Gao Bo first. Then where do you think Ma Zhanshan will go? Fan Zhuang pointed to Jilin Province on the map: here. Why? I don't understand, there is a volunteer army in Jilin. Ma Zhanshan must go west to find them. Once the two troops join forces, we will be in trouble. Therefore, the most urgent task is to intercept and prevent it from fleeing westward.

The commander made a brilliant argument, and Song Muyan flattered him insincerely. The subordinate was so knowledgeable that the interest of the village was even higher. He even pointed out the actual location of Ma Zhanshan, saying that as long as the troops follow this direction, the west will be blocked, and the northeast and south will be encircled. Will become the turtle in the urn. Next, the general procedure should be: Gao Bo obeys Song Mu's command, and Song Mu listens to Honjo's words and blocks Ma Zhanshan's "road to the west". But the actual operation process is not the case at all.

Who is Gao Bo? Although the guards sent by the imperial court are not high-ranked (major general brigade commander), they have a high status. How can they listen to the two of you blindly? At that moment, without saying hello to Songmu, he gathered the cavalry from his headquarters and headed north. Everyone in the commanders of the Japanese army thinks they are awesome.Song Mu also has an idea, thinking that Ma Zhanshan is more likely to go east, but he doesn't want to offend Gao Bo and Benzhuang Fan, two great people, after all, one has a way and the other is the boss. then what should we do?

This brother's mind is also very active, he came to get the best of all three, split the army into three parts, and headed north, west, and east, and there was no shortage of the same. Congratulations to the three, congratulations to the three, all guessed wrong. Ma Zhanshan didn't go in any of the three directions. He chose to go south, planning to go east along the Songhua River and join Li Du's Jilin Self-Defense Forces. One Jilin, one Jilin Self-Defense Force, although there are only three words, but one goes west, one goes south, and the south and the north are completely different, two concepts.

What a shame. In fact, when the three boys, Hu Meng, were talking nonsense, Ma Zhanshan had already passed through their imaginary "activity area" and was walking southward. But this southbound road is not destined to be smooth. While passing the railway, the large army was finally discovered by a Japanese army stationed on the side of the road. The latter was stuck behind like a fly, and could not be driven away no matter how hard they drove. We still remember that during the Battle of Jiangqiao, at every critical moment, or at a crucial moment to determine victory or defeat, Ma Zhanshan always had surprise soldiers to ambush, outflank, or intercept, which often changed the situation of the battle significantly.

This time is no exception. Just when the two sides were fighting inextricably and the battle was heating up, a cavalry unit suddenly came out, flanking the Japanese army. The captain of the Japanese army was pleasantly surprised: it must be the Gaobo Cavalry Brigade. Brothers have lasted until now, and finally I am looking forward to you. salute. The gift returned by the other party was a blow to the head. It's Ma Zhanshan's troops! The Japanese army was in chaos. Can it not be chaotic? I look forward to it, hope to see it through, but it is the opponent's reinforcements that come.I don't have the mental capacity to bear it, I can't accept it at all.

Ma Zhanshan took the opportunity to escape. Although the crisis was temporarily turned to safety, it was not completely out of danger. Song Mu was able to become a general later, but he was certainly not a fool. He finally discovered the direction and intention of Ma Zhanshan's march. Pull the net again, chase and intercept. The real Gaobo brigade rushed on and finally arrived. Across a river, they saw Ma Zhanshan. Ma Zhanshan didn't slip away and waited for them to cross the river. Could it be that he wants to hit halfway? Attacking halfway is a good way to play, but it also requires capital, at least some firepower equipment, Ma Zhanshan is now all lightly armed, without heavy weapons, and lacks the conditions to "strike".

He has a substitute, though: cavalry punch. The forward of the Gaobo brigade had just disembarked from the boat and landed, and before he had time to get on his horse, Ma Zhanshan had already commanded the cavalry, brandishing his saber, and charged towards him like a whirlwind. Cut hard. The Japanese army was beaten. I said, they are all first-class troops of the Guards Division, don’t be so sad, show some courage to fight to the death, long long ago, we have a general in China named Xiang Yu, he did it like this, and he succeeded. Japanese Soldier A: You put it lightly. It is typical for you to stand up and talk without back pain. How many troops does Xiang Yu have, and he came prepared, smashing a pot and destroying a ship are all within the plan, which is different.

Japanese Soldier B: Ma Zhanshan didn't say hello, and we didn't prepare. We haven't touched the saddle yet. How can we fight? Japanese Soldier C: Quickly give me a boat, let me row back, come back when I'm ready... Ma Zhanshan told them: Don't think about it, swim back if you have the ability. In addition to the Japanese soldiers who were hacked to death on the river bank, there were not a few people who drowned in the river. I really should learn swimming skills at home and come back again. There are many Japanese cavalry on the other side, but they can only watch and worry.When they rowed over shouting and yelling, Ma Zhanshan and his cavalry disappeared without a trace, and the rest of the job was to collect the corpses of their own people. After suffering a loss, people feel uncomfortable. A technical question needs to be discussed here. Why was Ma Zhanshan so "free and casual" after the Japanese army had a cavalry brigade? It was as if the teacher was teaching the students. There was a mischievous classmate who kept walking in and out. Occasionally, he would look through the teacher's textbook and take the children's homework or something, but the others just couldn't see it, and no one reported it. The classroom is so big and there are only so many people, is it possible? You must know that Ma Zhanshan is not a bird with wings, and the cavalry unit that moves with him is often hundreds or even thousands. In terms of number, it is not small. I can't figure it out. Ask the commander of the Kwantung Army Fan Zhuang. This old man had already blushed and ran back to Shenyang. When it comes to great principles, there is no one who can speak better than him. No way, the leader. "Restoring the stability of Heilongjiang depends on capturing Ma Zhanshan!" "Improve law and order, there is no other shortcut, just one, to capture Ma Zhanshan!" "Capturing Ma Zhanshan alive is more important than anything else. This is the most important event now!" Got it, isn't it just to take care of Ma Zhanshan, so how can you tell me how to do it? Ben Zhuang Fan analyzed it earlier, but he went to a foreign country by mistake. Later, I analyzed a few more, and some were wrong, but none of them were right. It's so pitiful, God, let him face one, it's a little comfort. If Pele, who played football, hadn't been born a few years later, his honorable title of Big Mouth Crow would probably have been handed over to General Shigeru Honjo. For Songmu and Gao Bo, it was wrong of course not to do what the leader said, and it was their own fault. Grassroots officers and soldiers complained. Brother, if you make a mistake once, you will almost blush. We are different. If the leader moves his mouth, we will lose our legs. Besides, this is not an ordinary track and field race, but a cross-country obstacle course.The difficulty is too great, what we encounter is either a swamp or a barren mountain, and the climate is still very strange, frenzied during the day and frantically cold at night, you want to treat us like wild beasts. Shigeru Honjo is talking nonsense, so you can't listen to him. Matsuki has his own intelligence system, but his system has considerable problems. It was our old friend Lin Yixiu, head of the Qiqihar Secret Service, who provided him with information. Some brothers may think that this title is inappropriate for me. Can an aggressor be called an old friend?What qualifications does he have? Apart from my old habit of making fun of little devils, I think that at least Lin Yixiu's performance during this period of time is still worthy of the word "friend". This kid Lin Yixiu, before the Battle of Jiangqiao, also pretended to play the role of "mediation" with consul Qingshui. He looked like a peace envoy, but in fact he was also a militant.Before coming to "Manchuria", the identity will scare you - he and Gao Bo are comrades-in-arms, and the infantry captain of the Guards Division. Like any Japanese spy, Lin Yixiu's usual interest and hobby is to collect all kinds of information on "Manchuria", especially the military and economic figures in Heilongjiang. ".It would be a bit of a shame not to let him come to get information. But what Lin Yixiu didn't know was that there had always been a person who was more interested in intelligence than him, and was more proficient in it. This person is Ma Zhanshan. Do you like the contradiction between engaging in intelligence and commanding wars?Not contradictory at all. Throughout the ages, those who can fight generally attach great importance to intelligence. It is said that Zhuge Liang can pinch and count, knows astronomy from the top, and geography from the bottom, so he can always win battles.This Mr. Kong Ming was not sent from Mars, nor did he have the help of "Baidu" and "Gougou". It is of course that he is good at collecting and analyzing intelligence to be able to do this. Ma Zhanshan's intelligence activities are similar to his "moving" of the Japanese army's treasury in Qi City. He has all the combat materials of the various units of the Kwantung Army in Heilongjiang Province. To put it bluntly, it may be more complete than Songmu himself. When the Utsunomiya Division arrived in Harbin, Ma Zhanshan had "strength statistics", how many people, how many guns, how many people were walking, and how many people were riding horses. How Honjo Shigeru, Matsuki, and Koba conducted situational analysis, and how they issued combat orders, including how they boasted in the summary after a battle, and concealed the number of Japanese casualties, Ma Zhanshan had them all. After reading the research himself, he bound it into a volume and distributed it to the troops. Therefore, Ma Zhanshan knew every move of the Utsunomiya Division and the Gaobo Cavalry Brigade, and sometimes sighed: You should take this route, and you will go the wrong way, what a stupid person. For Ma Zhanshan, the Japanese army is a transparent person who can see internal organs.How do you say this battle is fought? As for why Ma Zhanshan was able to do this, to be honest, I am also a little unpredictable. I can only say that he has a wide road and a deep pool. If you are already amazed now, I advise you that there is no need, it is too early. Do you know Songmu's evaluation of Lin Yixiu and the secret service he is in charge of: Could he be sent by Ma Zhanshan to break into our hearts? I thought, if Lin Yixiu had heard this sentence with her own ears, she would have been so angry that she would vomit blood if she didn't commit suicide by caesarean section. Is it easy for me to get some information after all my hard work? How can I slander a good person like this. However, Brother Xiaolin (or classmate Xiaolin, friend Xiaolin), don’t get excited or panic, after all, we are not staging a realistic version of "The Wind". In fact, pine wood is not without reason to say so.Don't blame others for having opinions, let's take a look at the quality of your information first. Let's not talk about the far ones, anyway, I've been confused so many times, so let's talk about the nearest ones. Example 1: Lin Yixiu sent information to Songmu, telling Ma Zhanshan the exact location. He said this position categorically, with nose and eyes, and that posture, as if he saw it with a telescope in person, and he will be in a hurry with you whether you believe it or not. Song Mu dared not believe it, and immediately ordered a brigade of the Japanese army stationed nearby to attack. But after he went there, there was no sign of Ma Zhanshan at all.According to the local people, Ma Zhanshan did stay here, but they left the place the night before and headed north. What Song Mu might want to ask the most is, why is it such a coincidence that Ma Zhanshan walks ahead and I come behind? I can't explain this to Songmu, I can only tell him, if you come the day before, ask the "locals", they will definitely tell you: "Ma Zhanshan" stayed here before, but he left last night Lost. I'm just mad at you, what's the matter. Example two: Songmu got information from Lin Yixiu again, and based on the report from the nearby Japanese army (this time he couldn't just listen to Lin Yixiu): Ma Zhanshan appeared again. Since it was a comprehensive news this time, Pine paid special attention to it. Considering that the infantry was too slow to run, they simply didn't need them to contribute. Instead, they gathered the cavalry troops and drove them all on horseback. This time the momentum and scale were great, but the result was no different from the first time. It was they who came behind and Ma Zhanshan walked ahead, as if it had been calculated, and every second was right. The infantry ran slowly and couldn't keep up with Ma Zhanshan's footsteps. This pine could understand, so he didn't send them, but the second time, all the fast-running cavalry ended up exactly the same, which was incredible. Repeatedly, although Song Mu did not really suspect that Lin Yixiu was a "Japanese traitor" planted by Ma Zhanshan, he could no longer believe in the credibility of the latter's information. Here, I want to help "old friend" Lin Yixiu to say something fair: this buddy is indeed from Ma Zhanshan! But it was forced. Have you ever seen a puppet show? Ma Zhanshan is an old artist, and Lin Yixiu is the marionette. Of course, he is not the only puppet, but he is the one closest to Pine and the most important. To get information about Ma Zhanshan, Lin Yixiu couldn't pretend to be a beggar or a passer-by by himself. He could only ask a group of big spies below as the head of the agency. The spies went to the "informant". The problem lies in the "informant". Many "important informants" first went to listen to Ma Zhanshan's instructions, and then went to the secret agents to receive rewards.The information Ma Zhanshan gave to the "informant" was either true or false. The truth was not very important, while the false was very important. In fact, the puppet had to be made of pine wood, and even Shigeru Honjo, because even Commander Honjo's "current affairs analysis" came from the "information" provided by Lin Yixiu. Songmu didn't dare to trust Lin Yixiu's information anymore, so who should he trust? Believe in yourself, believe in the eyes of your subordinates. The few people couldn't see it, so Song Mu asked Ben Zhuangfan to send him more troops and cavalry.As long as there is a horse, I will pull it all over. Ben Zhuangfan lost face in Heilongjiang, knowing how difficult it is to round up Ma Zhanshan, so he fully agreed to the request for assistance.Of course he was embarrassed to speak to the staff headquarters this time, otherwise the latter might jump up in shock. Is it not enough to give you a cavalry brigade of a Guards division?What are you doing! I had to dig my own potential. Each division of the Kwantung Army is equipped with cavalry. Shigeru Honjo dug them all out and sent them to Heilongjiang. In addition to the Japanese planes that search for clues in the sky all day long, the number of troops can be described as vast and mighty. Tactical to describe. The more people there are, the more eyes and ears there will be. The probability of Ma Zhanshan being discovered will naturally increase greatly.But this is not the most dangerous thing. The most dangerous thing is the loopholes in Ma Zhanshan's troops. After Ma Zhanshan came back, due to his weak strength, he had to recruit a considerable number of "horse bandits".The qualities of these "horse bandits" themselves are uneven, and some of them have relatively loose combat discipline, which exposed their whereabouts. Song Mu searched according to the map and finally discovered Ma Zhanshan's secret: a series of information booklets. Faced with those familiar combat orders and briefing summaries, Song Mu was shocked. Only then did he realize that Ma Zhanshan was not only fighting a chasing war with him, but also secretly engaged in an intelligence war, which was not only about physical strength, but also about intelligence. That's too powerful. Commander Honjo is right. Such a character must be the enemy of the Kwantung Army and the Japanese Empire in "Manchuria" in the future. Pine quickly reorganized the troops, and re-filtered all the commands, orders, and combat rules of the troops to ensure that Ma Zhanshan would not take advantage of any loopholes. The location was exposed and intelligence failures caused Ma Zhanshan to lose his agility, and was surrounded by Japanese troops in Luoquandianzi. With mountains and rivers running out and ammunition and food running out, will Luoquandianzi become Ma Zhanshan's last burial place? Although Song Mu, who was in the base camp, was not present in person, he was more nervous and excited than anyone else.After more than two months of hard pursuit, it seems that there will be a clue soon. In life one must see people, in death one must see corpses. A few days later, he finally got the news that made him feel elated.The frontline troops reported that Ma Zhanshan had been shot dead, and photos were taken. At the same time, the official seal, smoking sets and name badges were found from the body. When the photo was sent up, Pine squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time. can not tell. The reason was that the deceased had suffered multiple gunshot wounds during his lifetime and was beyond recognition.However, his figure is thin and small, which is very similar to Ma Zhanshan. Song Mu threw the photo away, what else to look at, and wrote a merit report to the Kwantung Army Headquarters. The brethren have worked so hard for so many days, so we can't work in vain. After receiving the report, Shigeru Honjo is happier than Matsuki. Since September 18th, he hasn't been this happy for a long time.He hurriedly reported his victory to the military and the emperor—even Hirohito knew that Ma Zhanshan in "Northern Manchuria" was powerful. Japanese domestic newspapers were ecstatic, and they all believed that it was a great victory for the Kwantung Army in "Manchuria".In order to increase the visual impact, they also asked for the photo of "Ma Zhanshan was killed" and published it as a key point. In this world, pink eye attacks are always as frequent as colds. Seeing that you have made great achievements, some people will not be happy, saying what is the matter with this kind of photo, but they can't see clearly. Who knows if it is Ma Zhanshan. The rumors spread to Song Mu's ears, and he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.It's impossible to carry out DNA testing on this thing, so there's no way to justify it. Cut off Ma Zhanshan's head and let them recognize it. In the end, some people still said that it was not the same. Don't you just don't want to make me happy? Pine doesn't care so much anymore, and he insists that this is the real Ma Zhanshan. More than a month later, he was slapped firmly across the face. The real Ma Zhanshan appeared. Both Song Mu and Honjo Shige were cold from head to toe, feeling like they had been put together by Ma Zhanshan again. In fact, this time it was not Ma Zhanshan's trick, it was all a coincidence.When Luoquandianzi broke through, it was Ma Zhanshan's adopted son, Major General Han Shupeng, who died under the guns of the Japanese army. Major General Han was about the same size as Ma Zhanshan, and he was carrying Marshal Ma's belongings, so he was mistaken by the Japanese for Ma Zhanshan himself. Ma Zhanshan himself went through all sorts of difficulties and dangers, broke through the siege unimaginably, and raised the banner of righteousness again in another place. Fan Zhuang is about to collapse, is this opponent a human or a god? But Yihuzi was born in regular warfare, he created the classic of Jiangqiao Battle; in guerrilla warfare, he climbed to the pinnacle of this field, moving like a rabbit, quiet as a virgin, you can't find it in Heilongjiang when you don't move your nest If you see him, once he comes out, he can beat you so badly. If you say that Benzhuang Fan doesn't pay much attention to Ma Zhanshan, Benzhuang Fan himself will cry in anxiety: I am wronged! The Kwantung Army has a total of four divisions, two of which are here to fight the Ma's Army, using almost half of the Kwantung Army's strength, but it is not enough, and they are cheeky, and they go through the back door from the country and transfer the Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Division, and that's it, still In vain. When Ben Zhuang came here, he was really anxious. As long as he saw an onion in the Kwantung Army, he would pull it out and insert it in Heilongjiang to deal with the Ma Jiajun.The two divisions stationed in Liao and Kyrgyzstan were out of breath after chasing the local volunteers, and he had to transfer the best-running cavalry regiment from the middle. For those two poor divisions, this is not mobilizing their soldiers, it is clearly drawing their blood.Simply, everyone stop playing, we also lie down and sleep, and the volunteers outside the door will follow him if they quarrel, anyway, we can’t catch up with them when we come out. The bets that could be placed were all-in this time, and finally, the subordinates reported victory, saying that Ma Zhanshan had been beaten to death.Honzhuang Shige even showed a rare smile for this, thinking that it would be easier now.Unexpectedly, the so-called "Ma Zhanshan was shot dead" was nothing but a self-deceiving joke.After the truth was revealed, a bunch of people were embarrassed. In addition to Matsuki and Shigeru Honjo, Emperor Hirohito was also included. get out of class is over! When it gets to such an unmanageable situation, it will be unreasonable for you, Zhuang Fan, not to dismiss the get out of class. In addition to Honjo Shigeru, those who were unlucky for this were also the large and small staff members of the Kwantung Army Command. This is the famous "Kwantung Army Reorganization" in history. Below Honjo Shigeru, from Itagaki to Ishihara, they were either transferred or transferred out, and none of them were spared. There are always too many similarities in history. The two teams of the Kwantung Army who created incidents, Muraoka and Kawamoto, were dismissed because of Zhang Zuolin, and Honjo Shigeru and Ishihara were eliminated because of Ma Zhanshan. It was not until the end of 1932 that Ma Zhanshan was forced to enter the territory of the Soviet Union and returned to China from Xinjiang. His departure actually represented the end of a stage of the Northeast War of Resistance.Before returning to China, the Northeast God of War was arranged by the Chinese government to visit Poland, Germany and other places. As long as you are a hero, you will be respected everywhere.
