53. The Battle of the Hundred Regiments launched in advance
In the previous chapter, it was said that the wolf returned to CQ to participate in the celebration party, and almost made a joke. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Just when Jiang ** and other senior Chinese Party officials were celebrating the victory of the Battle of Wuhan, in a room at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the leaders of the 120th Division, the 115th Division, the 129th Division, the independent brigades, and the Northern Bureau were all here, and they wanted to hold a meeting on whether to launch an active offensive on the occasion of the new defeat of the Japanese in Wuhan, and the meeting was presided over by General Zuo*, deputy chief of the general staff of the Eighth Route Army.
Several main divisions plus independent brigades demanded an attack, while representatives of the Northern Bureau and the YA said that whether the attack now aroused the anger of the Japanese would not outweigh the losses in the end. The two finally debated with each other, and because the YA representative spoke too much, the two almost didn't fight.
Finally, the commander-in-chief, General Zhu *, spoke: "As for me, agree to launch an attack, There are four reasons: 1. The newly defeated Japanese and their morale is low, which is a good opportunity for attack, and their supplies are now in short supply; 2. If they do not take the opportunity to fight now, after a while, it will be a big deal to want to fight, because the Chinese Party has recently stabbed us in the back with the help of overseas Chinese generals, and I am afraid that when the time comes, that Chiang will stab us in the back and fight out, and the turf war will be a little bigger, and the strength will leak out, so that he has the heart and has to weigh it; 3. The expansion of our army is too great now, and many soldiers have no guns in their hands, although the overseas Chinese general has sent us five divisions of equipment, but it is his help that our army's other materials are sufficient, can fight this battle; 4. That is, the people's heart, our army has proposed to go north to resist the Japanese since the Long March, but except for the battle of Pingxingguan and the battle of Yangmingbao, the others can only be regarded as small fights. Well, this is also what Chairman Mao meant, let's start voting. At this time, the representatives of the YA and the comrades of the Northern Bureau were talking about it.
......
Half an hour later, the results of the vote came out, the main combat force voted for it, part of the Northern Bureau voted for it, some people abstained from voting, and the YA deputies voted against, and the final result was that the favor was greater than the opposition, and they agreed to go to war.
After discussion, it was finally agreed that General Peng **, deputy commander-in-chief, would preside over the campaign. At first, the name of the battle was "Sabotage Battle", and the main purpose was to disrupt the enemy's communications, but because the strength of the participants was later revealed, there were more than 100 regiments (because the wolf pointed out the location of gold, coal and oil to the Red Party, their life was a little better, so the recruitment was so fast), the newspapers called the battle "Battle of the Hundred Regiments". (It's apocryphal here, the real history is not like this, don't spray)
On November 18, 1938, just one week after the Battle of Wuhan, in North China, the Eighth Route Army, which had always been relatively low-key, unleashed its butcher's knife against the enemy. More than 100 regular regiments of the Eighth Route Army, as well as more than 200,000 local guerrillas, militias, and anti-Japanese people, destroyed railways and highways, uprooted strongholds, cracked down on small groups of Japanese pirates, and cracked down on puppet armies. It lasted more than 3 months and achieved significant results.
Post-war statistics: This campaign carried out more than 1,800 battles of all sizes, seriously damaged the Zhengtai Railway, Ningtie Highway and other routes, plunged the transportation of the entire North China Japanese Invaders into chaos, conquered more than 2,900 strongholds, annihilated more than 70,000 Japanese puppet troops (more than 20,000 more than history), dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese puppet army, inspired the fighting spirit of the Chinese military and civilians in the War of Resistance, and strengthened the confidence of victory.
After the war, the Eighth Route Army sent many small detachments to develop troops behind enemy lines in He, Tianjin, Shandong, etc., pulling mountains everywhere and guerrillas everywhere, and the ranks of the Eighth Route Army developed faster.
And the day after the battle was launched, the North China Command received telegrams from all over the country asking for help, and Shouichi Terauchi smashed several vases with a knife, and only shouted in his mouth: "Yaga, is the empire already so unbearable?" Even the dirt eight roads have been bullied to the head. But he couldn't help it, because before, the empire wanted to fight the Battle of Wuhan, and several of his divisions were lost, and there was no return, and now he has no troops to ask for, so he can only slowly shrink the defensive line. can only send a telegram back to DJ for help, but fortunately, the Eighth Route Army will accept it when it sees good, his BP is still there, and the North China Command is saved.
During this period, the funniest thing should be Yan ** of the Jin Sui Army, when he received the report of the Eighth Route Army, he immediately shrank his troops, afraid that the Japanese would attack; And when he saw that the Eighth Route Army had won a complete victory, he immediately sent his troops out to fight the autumn wind, but when his soldiers had just been sent out, he heard that the Eighth Route Army had withdrawn its troops, and he also immediately withdrew his troops.
And after the Wei ** of the Central Army of the Chinese Army in SX saw the Eighth Route Army sending troops, he immediately sent a telegram to Chairman Jiang of CQ, but was reprimanded, and Wei ** had no choice but to watch the Eighth Route Army attack.
And Jiang ** in CQ received a telegram from Wei **, coupled with the information that Dai Li gave him before, and scolded there: "Niang Xipi, the speed of the Red Party's expansion is too fast, it has reached 200,000 people, Niang Xipi, who gave them the power to expand the army privately, Niang Xipi, dared to attack the Japanese Kou head-on, do you want to get them behind...... Well, it's still not, after all, it's Chinese. Well, I don't know how General Chen said that he would take back Hainan Island, how are he preparing? Niang Xipi, this time, I will be cheaper than that old hair, and I have found the right opportunity......"
And the wolf was preparing to go with Feng Yuxiang to take back Hainan, but after hearing that the Red Party launched the "Hundred Regiment War", he was stunned, how could it be, wasn't the "Hundred Regiment War" in the second half of 1940? How can it start now? Alas, forget it, I'll help them tonight.
So on the night of November 21, 1938, the wolf drove the flying sword to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, leaving 10 divisions of Japanese weapons, and a few cannons by the way.
And the next morning, when the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army came together, and found the contents of a note at the head of his bed, he was sweating with fright, and thought to himself: God man, he came and went without a trace, and put his weapon in his empty warehouse, and such a thing did not make a sound. Well, it's good that it's not an enemy......
Immediately afterwards, he ordered the various troops below who were short of weapons to come to the headquarters to receive weapons, and the people below were puzzled one by one, thinking, isn't there no weapons in the headquarters? Why do you have to get it? I don't understand...... But one by one, they ran to the headquarters as fast as they could, thinking to themselves, it's better to have weapons than not to have them!
......
But the wolf didn't know what was happening on the side of the Eighth Route Army, when he passed by a big mountain, he found that there was the breath of an immortal cultivator below, although these three breaths were very evil, so he went down to the ground to take a look, and found that there were three people dressed as Oriental ninjas who actually killed several young Chinese girls in this valley. At this time, he saw that one of them had a live one in his hand, which should not have been bitten yet, so he yelled: "Stop! ”
And the three of them immediately looked up at him, only to hear the three of them immediately say in unison: "Baga, you are Chen Tianwolf?" ”
