Chapter 555: Closing the Door and Beating the Dog (3)
Shenyang,
at dusk,
The 1th Regiment of the 2nd Division of the 5st Column was stationed outside the city.
The room was steaming hot.
Tonight, the kitchen staff steamed big meat buns for everyone!
Wang Yaohui ate three in one go.
The superiors used psychological warfare tactics such as dropping leaflets.
There was a relaxed atmosphere in the army.
According to Wang Yaohui's judgment, the Shenyang defenders would definitely surrender.
Shenyang is already an isolated city, and no one will come to rescue them. The defenders are mentally collapsed, and with the leaflet offensive, the sooner they surrender, the better the treatment they will receive!
He was very supportive of this approach from the bottom of his heart. Who wants to fight every day? If Shenyang is destroyed, the people will be let down!
Night falls quietly,
Sure enough, there was movement at the city gate.
Several figures crawled out of the fortifications and ran towards Dongye's position! They looked nervous, hurried, with weapons raised above their heads, and their eyes revealed their weariness of war and their desire to survive.
At first, only a few Kuomintang soldiers sneaked out of the city under the cover of night to surrender to the People's Liberation Army.
As time went on, more and more Kuomintang defenders left the city and surrendered.
By 10 o'clock in the evening, the number of Kuomintang soldiers who surrendered to Wang Yaohui's troops had reached 3500!
The busiest group was the kitchen staff, who started cooking and distributing canned food non-stop!
The next day, at 7 a.m.,
East Field Headquarters,
Several bosses drank porridge and ate big white steamed buns.
"The whole city of Shenyang is full of white flags. Currently, the 1st and 3rd columns have all entered the city without encountering any resistance!"
"Given them 24 hours, they obeyed and laid down their weapons ahead of time!"
"Then treat them strictly as rebels. Jinzhou has been severely damaged this time!"
A staff officer suddenly ran in and said in surprise,
"Report to the commander! A call came in from Jinxi, saying that the enemy's eastward-moving corps in Huludao has also laid down their weapons!"
"Great! This way, a lot less blood will be shed!"
"What about Yingkou?"
"No movement yet!"
"It seems that they are prepared to fight to the end!"
"Order the troops to launch an attack immediately after 48 hours!"
Yingkou,
Liu Yuzhang, commander of the 52nd Army, was anxiously wandering around the military headquarters.
Unlike Shenyang, he can escape anytime as long as a ship comes.
Chief of Staff Wang Chang ran in with the telegram.
"How about it?"
"The passenger ships that the navy has dispatched will arrive tonight. There are five of them in total. They can take us away!"
Liu Yuzhang was stunned for a moment and asked,
"Why are there no warships?"
"Commander, the Navy said that they encountered an air raid in Huludao last time, and they only have a few warships! And they are all imported. They can't afford the compensation. The same goes for passenger ships. They can go directly to Qingdao, where there are American warships!"
Liu Yuzhang was so angry that he started cursing.
"This group of people are afraid of death!"
However, Wang Chang looked at him with disdain. At this moment, who wouldn't be afraid of death?
Shaking his head, Liu Yuzhang sighed.
"Forget it. The Communists don't have a navy anyway. By the time they find out we've escaped, we'll have already reached Qingdao. You make some arrangements. We must all evacuate Yingkou tonight!"
"Yes!"
Changchun City,
Mei Ping accompanied Yin Xinjun on a full day of inspection today and finally finalized a number of major projects to be started next year.
In addition to industrial projects, a number of educational construction projects are also planned, including the reconstruction and expansion projects of the Changchun-Shenyang, Changchun-Harbin, and Changchun-Tonghua highways, Changchun University of Technology, Changchun Normal University, Changchun Hospital, Changchun No. 1 Middle School, Changchun No. 2 Middle School, Changchun No. 3 Middle School, and 19 primary schools!
Mei Ping is also very satisfied. If these projects can be smoothly started and constructed, employment in Changchun will be guaranteed!
The group arrived at Changchun Beiguo Hotel.
at the dinner table,
An officer handed over a telegram.
At the same time, a pleasant electronic sound came out of Yin Xinjun's mind.
"Ding, it is detected that the enemy's eastward corps has surrendered due to the host's efforts. A mine and a civilian passenger car production line are specially rewarded!"
Yin Xinjun was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He said excitedly,
"Comrades, I have good news for you. Shenyang and Huludao were all liberated peacefully today!"
When Yin Xinjun goes out, unless it is a secret mission, he often brings a communications staff and a radio so that he can receive information at any time!
There was applause at the table, and everyone's faces were filled with joy.
This good news was also expected by everyone!
Immediately, Yin Xinjun frowned.
He thought of Yingkou again.
The Yingkou defenders are probably up to something. I have to go do some reconnaissance tonight.
He turned his head and ordered,
"Send a telegram to Zhang Wenjiu, asking him to prepare the P51 at Changchun Airport, load it with ammunition and fuel!"
The people at the table ate and chatted, toasting to each other frequently.
After dinner,
Yin Xinjun and others arrived at the airport.
He asked Wang Shuigen and the others to go back to Mulan first.
Then we came to the runway,
The ground crew has prepared everything for P51's departure!
Yin Xinjun boarded the cabin, started the plane, and flew towards Yingkou!
Yingkou Port,
The five passenger ships that had just arrived were moored at the shore.
The scene was in chaos. Soldiers of the 52nd Army of the Kuomintang hurried to the port under the cover of night. The dock was full of fleeing soldiers, wealthy businessmen, and dignitaries. People were eager to board the ship bound for the interior and escape from the land that was about to be occupied by the People's Liberation Army.
The soldiers were carrying their bags, looking nervous and flustered. Their ranks seemed a bit disorganized, in stark contrast to their usual neat military appearance. Many equipment and supplies were randomly thrown on the ground, and no one was bothered to sort them out or move them.
More than a dozen officers were anxiously directing the crowd, trying to maintain order, but their efforts seemed insignificant in this chaotic situation. Soldiers rushed to the passenger ship, the gangway was crowded with people, and some even clashed for positions on board.
Shouts, cries and the roar of ships were intertwined, and the entire port was filled with an atmosphere of tension and panic.
Suddenly, there was the roar of an airplane engine in the air.
A fighter plane suddenly swooped down and dropped two bombs on the dock.
There were two loud bangs.
A huge cloud of smoke rose from the pier.
Countless people were killed instantly in the explosion.
A passenger ship boarding passengers saw that the situation was not good.
Start sailing immediately,
The gangway fell immediately, and screams rang out.
Many soldiers fell directly into the sea.
The fighter plane circled in the air, then dived down like a bird of prey. With a flash of fire, the rocket under the belly of the plane broke free, dragging a long tail of flame, and rushed straight towards the passenger ship.
Instantly, a huge column of water rose around the passenger ship, and the shock wave of the explosion made the entire port tremble. A huge gap was blown open in the hull, and debris flew everywhere, and the soldiers' screams of fear intertwined.
Thick smoke rose from the passenger ship, and the fire began to spread, engulfing everything. The sea water was dyed dark red, and the soldiers ran around in panic, their cries for help drowned out by the roar of explosions and fire.
While calling on the siege troops to attack immediately, Yin Xinjun dived down again and used machine guns to continuously fire at the dock and passenger ship!
