Chapter 314: The Northern Expedition Army's All-out Counterattack is Unstoppable
Su Zhengyang strode up to Liu Zhen. Men don't shed tears easily, but he was heartbroken. His family was broken, his wife and children were gone, and the country was in shatters. Standing from the perspective of the big man from Northeast China, Su Zhengyang could truly feel his despair and pain.
Su Zhengyang bent down and helped Liu Zhen up.
"Brother, what's your name?"
"Sir, my name is Liu Zhen!"
"Please accept my condolences. No one wants to see such a tragedy happen. Cheer up. The dead are gone. The living must live well for them. Do you want to follow me to kill the devils and avenge your family?"
Liu Zhen looked at Su Zhengyang's determined gaze and unconsciously clenched his fists.
"Sir! I want to follow you to kill the devils! I want to avenge my wife, my son, and the folks in the Northeast! Kill all these bastards!"
Su Zhengyang looked at the flames of revenge that had rekindled in Liu Zhen's eyes and patted him on the shoulder: "It won't be long before we completely drive Fuso out of the Northeast! We will give the people of the Northeast a peaceful and prosperous world!"
After communicating with some people and comforting them, Su Zhengyang returned to the front of the crowd again, holding a loud speaker and shouting: "From today on, those who want to fight the devils with me, Su Zhengyang, go to the right to sign up for the army. Those who want to live a good life with their families in the future, stand on the left, and I will properly place you! Folks, I, Su Zhengyang, promise you that I will make the Japanese devils pay for their blood debt with blood and pay the price they deserve! Let them be buried forever in the white mountains and black soil!"
As Su Zhengyang's voice fell, the people at the scene burst into shouts like a landslide and tsunami, and all of them burst into tears with excitement. Su Zhengyang's words represented that they had finally escaped from the dark concentration camp and gained a new life.
What surprised Su Zhengyang was that there were nearly 20,000 men from Northeast China who were willing to join the army for revenge, just like Liu Zhen. The oldest of them was nearly 40 years old, and the youngest was only 16 or 17 years old.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Su Zhengyang fell into deep thought. Nearly 20,000 people were enough to form a large-scale division-level force, but his territory was in the northwest, and he couldn't let them leave their homes and go to Linzhou. It seemed that after he took back the territory of the Northeast, he must establish a complete talent training system here and set up branches of his major universities in the northwest.
At present, these nearly 103 new recruits have been temporarily formed into the New st Northeast Division, with Guan Rongfei, Liu Chengxu's right-hand man and former deputy commander of the rd Division, as the division commander.
After arranging the aftermath, Su Zhengyang immediately contacted the Northern Expedition Corps stationed at the Baizhou border. Four days later, the main force of the Northern Expedition Corps once again launched a fierce offensive like a tide. In just three days, they captured Hecheng and other places that had been re-occupied by the Fuso Kwantung Army.
Speaking of which, the Kwantung Army troops sent by Minamino Tojiro to take over Tsuruga Castle and other places were also unlucky. In Matsue City behind them, Su Zhengyang personally led the Storm Assault Division to cut off their retreat, while in the front was the fierce attack of the Northern Expedition Corps' main force of nearly 400,000.
Within three days, four divisions of the Fuso Kwantung Army were buried on the battlefield again. The situation currently faced by the entire Kwantung Army has become truly precarious.
"Baga, Su Zhengyang is a treacherous villain who doesn't keep his promises! He just signed the Songjiang Treaty with us, and now he has immediately launched a full-scale offensive against our Kwantung Army. This is simply outrageous!"
At this time, Minamino Tojiro was extremely angry and completely unable to control his emotions.
It was not until this time that the entire Fuso realized that they had been tricked by Su Zhengyang and were being played around. From the beginning to the end, Su Zhengyang had never given up the idea of taking back the Northeast territory, and he even wanted to wipe out their Kwantung Army troops!
"Commander Minamino, I think..."
Before Asano Atsuyoshi could finish his words, he was slapped in the face by Minamino Tojiro.
"Useless! Why didn't you get any information in advance when Su Zhengyang mobilized his troops to attack Songjiang City at night? Didn't you promise me in person that you would keep a close eye on the actions of the Northern Expedition Army? Huh?"
On the left cheek of Asano Atsuyoshi, five very obvious finger marks brought a burning sensation. Minamino Tojiro seemed to be still unsatisfied, and he actually pulled off his military belt and fired at Asano Atsuyoshi.
Three minutes later, Minamino Tojiro stopped his actions, panting heavily. His scarlet eyes seemed to be staring at Asano Atsuyoshi as if he wanted to devour someone.
From beginning to end, Asano Wenliang never made any evasive movement. At this time, his face and head were covered with bloody belt marks.
"Commander Nanye, please believe me. This troop that suddenly launched a night attack on Songjiang City is definitely not from the Northern Expedition Corps. Like the Zhenxing Division and the Viking Division, it is a secret trump card that Su Zhengyang has been hiding in the dark."
Minamino Tojiro said gloomily, "Even if this troop is not from the Northern Expedition Corps, how do you explain their sudden appearance in the area near Songjiang City? You didn't even notice any clues about such a large-scale troop movement in advance. It's your fault! Could it be that they dropped from the sky?"
Asano Wenliang was suddenly speechless. Until now, he still couldn't understand why this army that raided Matsue City suddenly appeared in the heart of Hakushu without any warning, and took over the well-defended Matsue City in just one night.
"Since Su Zhengyang is so cruel, don't blame us, the Fuso Empire, for being unjust! Someone, notify the Pengjiang Division in Jiamu City! Kill all 30,000 Chinese in the concentration camp in Jiamu City! I will use their blood as the price for Su Zhengyang's violation of the treaty!"
At this time, at the gate of Jiamu City, 74 kilometers northwest of Songjiang City, tens of thousands of Fuso soldiers had their hands tied and were kneeling on the ground trembling.
"For the sake of the people, have someone call on the Kwantung Army troops in the city to immediately release the Northeastern civilians in the Jiamu Concentration Camp! Otherwise, we will kill these Kwantung Army prisoners of war right away!"
Qiao Weimin hesitated and said, "Commander, such a blatant massacre of prisoners of war violates international conventions and may cause the Northern Xinjiang government to be condemned by international peace organizations."
"Their knives are on the necks of our people. What else can I not do? These Japanese devils all deserve to be killed. Do as I say. Tell them that if they don't release the people in the city before sunset, I will kill 3,000 of them for fun!"
Among the Divine Punishment Special Forces, several members who were fluent in Japanese held a loud speaker and repeated Su Zhengyang's threat word for word to the Fuso soldiers on the city wall.
