The Strange Story of Makino Chapter 1 Searching for the Dragon in the Tomb The underground fortress of the Kwantung Army


When Hu Bayi first debuted, he was trapped in the Jin Dynasty General Tomb in Yerengou.

He was desperate and accidentally entered the "Kwantung Army Underground Fortress" adjacent to the underground tomb.

Its scale is difficult to estimate.

The underground fortresses of the Japanese army in the northeastern border area do exist, and there are more than one or two.

Some of these underground military facilities built by the Japanese have been discovered and opened as exhibition halls to expose the crimes of Japanese militarism.

Some of them have been destroyed during the war, while a larger part is still hidden in unknown mountainous areas and has not yet been discovered.

The underground military fortress in the novel is huge, but is it really that big in reality?

The largest military fortress that has been discovered so far is the Hutou permanent underground military fortress in Hulin County, Heilongjiang.

The central area is 12 kilometers wide in front and 6 kilometers deep.

Within a radius of tens of kilometers, there are more than ten fortresses of various sizes, consisting of five positions: Menghu Mountain, Hubei Mountain, Hudong Mountain, Huxi Mountain, and Huxiao Mountain.

It is precisely because of the wide distribution range, large scale of fortifications, complete military facilities, solid defense, and strong offensive power of Tiger Head Fortress, and it is located at the choke point that controls the Ussuri Railway in the Far East of the Soviet Union that the Japanese Kwantung Army boasted it as a permanent fortress. , is the "Maginot Line of Defense in the East."

However, the fate of this fortress was the same as that of the Maginot Line in the West.

It was outflanked by others, and a lot of manpower and material resources were wasted in vain.

So far, the underground fortresses and ammunition supplies of the Japanese Kwantung Army discovered in the Northeast are actually only a small part.

When Japan unconditionally surrendered, a large number of underground warehouses and military facilities were sealed and hidden.

The ammunition and weapons of the Japanese army were deeply hidden after the defeat.

There are countless such deeds.

It is said that when the Eighth Route Army first entered the Northeast, they collected the remaining weapons of the Japanese army everywhere, but the harvest was not great.

Once, several soldiers were on the bank of a river. , I found a large tomb with a tombstone standing in front of it, which read: Tomb of War Horse.

The signature at the bottom is the name of a Japanese military officer.

It seemed that it was left by the Kwantung Army, and no one paid much attention to it.

However, the commander of the reconnaissance company felt that something was wrong with this grave.

How many horses must be buried in such a large grave, so he led people to dig up the grave of the war horse.

As a result, Looking inside, the tomb was full of artillery pieces that had been dismantled and ready for use after being reassembled.

It turned out that these were a batch of weapons hidden by the Japanese army when they retreated.

There are also many underground fortresses hidden in the Daxinganling forest area.

There is a rumor that the fire in Daxinganling a few years ago was caused by the explosion of the Kwantung Army's underground arsenal.

Although these rumors are absurd, they also prove that the underground fortress in the novel completely exists.

As for the underground fortress described in Ghost Blowing the Lamp, which is located on the Sino-Mongolian border, in reality such a large-scale military fortress has not yet been found here.

However, in the strategic defense system adopted by the Kwantung Army against the Soviet Union, the Sino-Mongolian border is an important part, and it cannot be defended fully.

To guard Meng is to guard the river but not the beach.

Setting up a secret fortress on the edge of the grassland is a matter of course
