The next day, Huang Guobin took a group of people from the police station to Dongjiao Airport in a grand manner. When he entered Dongjiao Airport, what he saw were rows of brand-new bombers, like big birds lying there, Huang The state guest counted about forty aircraft.
A guard pointed a gun at the air force receptionist not far away and said in blunt Chinese: "Baga, work over there for injections!"
Huang Guobin had no choice but to lead people to the guest house and observe the terrain here while walking. The airport was surrounded by barbed wire and watchtowers with machine guns on them. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack from a high position. If you want to attack here, you must kill the Japs on these watchtowers.
The people in front of them who were giving injections were all Japanese military policemen, and it wasn't until noon that it was their turn. Huang Guobin used his Sharingan to scan the doctors who were giving them injections. Sure enough, they were all members of Unit 731.
Finally it was their turn. Unexpectedly, these doctors were off work. One doctor arrogantly said to Xu Zhongyi in Japanese: "You all wait here, we will call again at two o'clock in the afternoon."
Just wait, Huang Guobin just observed the terrain here and went back to draw a picture of the airport.
There are about a thousand defenders here, and the Japanese probably wouldn't think of anyone threatening this place.
Hundreds of farmers from the surrounding area were captured and worked hard here. These people were in ragged clothes and barefoot. Under the threat of Japanese soldiers armed with guns, they struggled to carry artillery shells and gasoline barrels to the plane. If they moved slowly, they would be hit. A whip.
When he got home in the afternoon, Huang Guobin drew the intelligence and the map of Dongjiao Airport and gave them to Liu Erkui, asking him to quickly find Commander Bao.
Commander Bao is stationed in the Jidong base area. Commander Bao, Zhao Han and Fan Zhuxian are discussing counter-mopping up against a map.
Commander Bao looked at the map and said: "I'm not afraid of the Japanese raids. I'm just afraid of the Japanese viruses. There are millions of people in Jidong and Western Shandong. It's really hard to guard against them. I wonder how the comrades in Tianjin are doing. Have they found this so-called virus?" Germ Troops.”
Zhao Han said: "I believe that Jin Bao will definitely find this 731 unit."
Fan Zhuxian also said: "Comrade Jin Bao has never let us down. I believe that the information will be sent over soon."
At this time, the guard came in and reported: "Report, Comrade Liu Erkui is here."
Commander Bao was overjoyed: "Please come quickly!"
Liu Erkui took out Huang Guobin's intelligence, which clearly stated the deployment of the Japanese army's raids, the location of Unit 731, and the detailed information about the airport.
Fan Zhuxian said: "Now that the Japs are out in force, Tianjin must be empty. We might as well go back behind enemy lines and destroy the airport directly together with the 731 bacteria unit."
Commander Bao slapped the table: "Okay, avoid the truth and just lie low, and do what the hell! I will take people to Tianjin and destroy this airport."
Zhao Han said: "Commander, I want you to take charge of the overall situation, how about I go?"
Fan Zhuxian also said: "How about letting Political Commissar Zhao go! After all, the Japanese have dispatched 200,000 troops, and we can't do without you here."
The three formulated a detailed combat plan and decided that Zhao Han would lead a regiment of troops to raid the Japanese military airfield in the eastern suburbs of Tianjin.
Finally, half a month later, the code-named "Eighteenth Autumn Luxi Operation" began. However, Unit 731 has always been concealed, including bacterial manufacturing and combat activities under the guise of health and epidemic prevention, and all operational plans, orders and reports were used. "Hidden words"; the officers and soldiers of the North China Expeditionary Force, navy, army and air force who cooperated in the operation were also kept strictly confidential. Except for a few senior personnel, the rest of the officers and soldiers did not know the existence of this unit.
On the eve of the launch of the campaign, all Japanese troops participating in the battle were injected with cholera vaccination and distributed infection prevention drugs. More than 200,000 people raided the troops, mainly killing party, government, and military personnel in the anti-Japanese base areas; they implemented the "Three Guangs" policy against the people in the base areas, leaving no chickens or dogs behind wherever they went.
At this time, there was another locust plague. The locusts flew up and covered the sky and the sun, sweeping away all the weeds and crops, leaving no harvest. People's hearts became heavy. Beside the small river at the head of the village, the crops that should have been lush and green have been wiped out, leaving only a desolate scene that is heartbreaking to look at. The people have been busy for a whole year, but due to the attack of locusts, there is no harvest and their livelihood is difficult. It is like a ruthless nightmare.
The locusts were followed by continuous autumn rains, which caused the water level of the Wei River to rise sharply, and the water quickly overflowed the river channel. According to historical records, the Japanese army dug river channels in many places. Hirose Toshiyama, captain of the 44th Brigade of the 53rd Brigade of the 59th Division of the Japanese Army, led 60 people to Linqing County (now Linqing City). ), the west bank of the Wei River near Xiaojiaozhuang burst open, turning the west of Linqing into a vast ocean. 400,000 tons of crops were flooded, 6,000 houses were washed away, and 32,300 people died.
The squadron stationed in Guantao, Pengwei, led another unit to break open the north embankment at the bend of the southeast Wei River in Jianjia Town (now part of Linxi County), 30 miles downstream of Guantao County. 450,000 people were affected and 22,500 died. Floods hit seven counties including Guantao and Linqing. One million innocent civilians were separated from their wives and their families were destroyed.
The tragic fact remains in history as a clear reminder that the entire southern part of the North China Plain became a marshland, bringing endless suffering to the people of North China.
The first regiment of the Jidong Guerrilla Force of the Eighth Route Army, consisting of more than 2,000 people, made a large circle and marched more than 200 kilometers to Yanggezhuang, not far from Tianjin.
Huang Guobin also used an excuse to go out of the city for inspection, and brought Liu Erkui to Yanggezhuang in makeup to serve as their guide.
The attack time was set at one o'clock in the morning. At this time, the little devils were all asleep, which was a good time to launch a surprise attack.
In the afternoon, Zhao Han held a mobilization meeting, and the whole Yanggezhuang was excited.
Zhao Han said: "Now the little devils are sweeping up the front. I never thought that we would come here to beat them. This time we are sure of victory."
A soldier shouted: "Kill them and avenge the people in the base area!"
The commander of the first battalion, Wang Desheng, stood up and asked for a fight: "Leave the task of attacking the airport to our first battalion. I promise to smash all the little Japanese planes to pieces and let them show off their power over us all day long!"
Li Yalong, commander of the 2nd Battalion, a tall and powerful man, shouted: "Leave it to our 2nd Battalion, I promise to capture all the planes, fly to Tokyo and blow up the Emperor!"
Zhao Han smiled and said: "Stop bragging, can you fly a plane?"
"If you don't know how to drive it, let him carry it away even if I carry it."
There was laughter among the crowd, and Zhao Han said with a smile: "You can't carry it away, you have to blow it all up. I have prepared the grenades. The first battalion will attack the airport, and the second and third battalions will block it. Before blowing up the airport, Not even a kid from Tianjin City can be let go."
More than two thousand Eighth Route Army soldiers shouted in unison: "Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Zhao Han and the commander of the first battalion discussed attacking the airport, but they both had difficulties on how to knock down the enemy's watchtower.
Liu Erkui said from the side: "What's so difficult about this? Isn't the sharpshooter who killed Tohi Kenharaji right here?"
Zhao Han slapped his head: "Oh, how could I forget about you, a sniper?"
In the middle of the night, Huang Guobin led the first battalion to the outskirts of the airport, and the second and third battalions also arrived at the fighting position.
Huang Guobin held a sniper rifle and pointed it at the Japanese on the watchtower.
