During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

When did the Eighth Route Army dare to cross the Great Wall and attack the three northeastern provinces?

But now is definitely not the time to think about that!

"Send a telegram to General Umezu immediately!"

"Something has happened in Fengtian. Chinese soldiers have crossed the border and arrived in Fengtian, preparing to attack the area!" Fukuda quickly reported.

"Attack the Fengtian region?"

"General Fukuda! You mean...?" The deputy immediately realized what was happening.

If I'm not mistaken!

"This unit is very likely the new Third Army of the Eighth Route Army in China!"

Fukuda took a deep breath and said.

"The New Third Army?"

"General Fukuda! You mean the one who severely injured General Shinotsuka before..." the deputy asked, his eyes wide with disbelief.

Although Yoshio Shinotsuka was defeated and became a disgraceful laughingstock throughout the empire, it was merely to quell public anger. In the eyes of these people, General Shinotsuka was not weak, and his combat command ability was outstanding.

In the Battle of Taiyuan, Yoshio Shinotsuka was completely suppressed by this new army!

.. ....... 0

At the same time, they also conducted an in-depth investigation into this suddenly rising Chinese armed force!

This is an elite force disguised as a local guerrilla force!

"Report this immediately!"

"Then pass down the order! Defend Fengtian City at all costs!"

"Hai!"

The deputy suddenly stood at attention.

……

"Thank you!"

"Aren't we being too hasty?"

A few kilometers from Fengtian City, Zhao Gang looked at the city, which was engulfed in the roar of artillery fire in the distance, and couldn't help but speak.

Although no battles took place along the way, we kept traveling!

The soldiers were clearly exhausted!

"Old Zhao! This is our only chance right now!"

"Moreover, Fengtian City is not only a must-win situation, but we must win it so that the news spreads throughout the three northeastern provinces!" Xie Jinyuan said, seemingly implying something.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Gang asked, frowning in confusion.

"Old Zhao! You know very well that attacking Fengtian is our only chance of survival!"

"Taking Fengtian will tie down the main force of the Kwantung Army!"

"But what you don't know is that the most important factor in taking Fengtian was actually opportunity!" Xie Jinyuan said slowly.

"opportunity?"

"Yes! It's an opportunity to make a fortune!"

"Get rich?"

"Old Xie! You're not talking about the Fengtian Arsenal, are you?" Zhao Gang asked after a pause.

Just now, he also learned from Xie Jinyuan that the New Third Army had taken over the Fengtian Arsenal!

Given the output scale of the Fengtian Arsenal, as long as Fengtian can be defended, this is indeed a chance to make a fortune.

"Yes and no!"

"The Fengtian Arsenal truly came into play after we established a foothold in the three northeastern provinces!"

"But the new Third Army will not lack weapons and equipment in the short term!" Xie Jinyuan said meaningfully.

The new Third Army lacks everything except weapons and equipment. After the Battle of Taiyuan, he didn't even hear about the spoils, because he knew that there were already too many of these things in the new Third Army to count!

In other words, even if the new three armed forces were to double in size now, they would not lack any weapons or equipment!

"what is that?"

"Old Zhao! I'm asking you, before the Japanese invaded China, who was in charge of the three northeastern provinces?"

Xie Jinyuan looked at the Taoist priest with a mocking expression.

Chapter 132 Plotting Against the Northeast Army! A Major Opportunity! [Please Subscribe Automatically!]

Who calls the shots in the three northeastern provinces?

"Old Xie! You're not talking about the Northeast Army, are you?"

Zhao Gang frowned as he realized what was happening.

Before the Japanese invaded China, even a three-year-old child knew who was in charge in the three northeastern provinces. If you were to ask who was the strongest back then, it wouldn't be Chongqing or Yan Xishan!

He was the old marshal, and the Northeast Army had nearly 400,000 men. It was also the first army in China to have a complete army, navy, and air force.

In those days, the old marshal invested a great deal of financial and material resources in developing weapons and equipment and establishing military academies.

The Northeast Army was truly full of talented people.

Armored forces, various heavy artillery pieces, and even an air force were being prepared.

However, after the old general died, the huge castle in the air collapsed.

"Ok!"

"But Lao Xie! The Northeast Army has already fallen apart! What does this have to do with the Northeast Army?" Zhao Gang couldn't help but ask.

If he remembered correctly, after the old marshal died, the elite part of the Northeast Army had already entered the pass. "270" did not have a good ending either, as it was completely dismantled by that person in the mountain city!

Scattered across various war zones in China, their combat strength remains formidable, but they have completely lost any chance to regain their former glory.

It must be said that if it weren't for Lao Xie's preparations, the fate of the new Third Regiment would probably not have been much different if it had been exposed at that time.

"Old Zhao!"

"If I told you that there are still quite a few former Northeast Army troops in the three northeastern provinces, would you believe me?" Xie Jinyuan asked in a deep voice.

"Former Northeast Army troops?" Zhao Gang frowned instantly.

"Ok!"

"Those brought into the pass were indeed the elite, but most of them, unwilling to leave their homes, stayed in the three northeastern provinces!"

"Conservatively speaking, there are at least 50,000 to 60,000 troops in the entire three provinces of Northeast China!" Xie Jinyuan said slowly.

Before that, it was the Anti-Japanese United Army!

But after Ma Zhanshan retreated to the fighting country, the entire Anti-Japanese United Army fell apart!

Without a leader, nothing much has been made of them over the years.

Meanwhile, the three northeastern provinces were severely affected by the Japanese invaders, so life there must have been quite difficult for them!

"Fifty or sixty thousand?"

"wrong!"

"Old Xie! You're not thinking about something, are you?" Zhao Gang suddenly realized and asked.

According to the data, even though the Anti-Japanese United Army was surrounded and blocked by the Japanese over the years, it did not last long, even though the Japanese were relentlessly pursuing them!

There must still be half of the troops left!

In fact, the Anti-Japanese United Army made great strides in the three northeastern provinces back then, and even captured Heilongjiang Province at one point, but it was all too short-lived.

After realizing what was happening, the Japanese dispatched a large force to encircle and annihilate them.

At the same time, there was a lack of supplies and equipment, let alone international aid at that time.

Those within the pass are too busy taking care of themselves.

A massive counterattack ultimately ended with the retreat of Ma Zhanshan, the commander-in-chief of the Anti-Japanese United Army, from the fighting country.

In other words, the new Third Army is following the same path that the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army took back then.

However, it remains to be seen how long and how big this fire will burn!

"Ha ha!"

"Old Zhao! I didn't say that!" Xie Jinyuan suddenly burst out laughing.

"But Lao Xie! These are, after all, the Northeast Army!"

“Even if we succeed, what about this power…” Zhao Gang said with a solemn expression.

A force of fifty to sixty thousand men—even the entire New Third Army only numbered fifty to sixty thousand!

No one can be sure what kind of impact this will have on the new three armed forces!
