For many officers and soldiers at the Anhuashan base, they were undoubtedly the first troops to be rescued by Hu Biao. At present, the veteran members of the task force, a large part of which are combat members, were selected from the Anhua Hill base earlier.

The first few company commanders to be appointed are now promoted to national majors. In terms of the speed of rank promotion alone, these officers, who were only lieutenants and captains earlier, still feel that this kind of promotion seems to be a little too easy.

It's just that for them, even if they are promoted to lieutenant colonels, they are still not as excited as before. The reason is simple, they value Hu Biao's appointment more than the nominal promotion of military ranks, and they have never felt that this military rank is applicable to other troops.

These officers, who came from the combat sequence of the national army, knew very well that from the day they were captured, they were only afraid that the old troops had forgotten them. Some of the officers could not even find the old troops, and most of them had been completely dispersed.

Even if the old army still exists, it is also unlikely that these promoted school officers will get a position that matches their rank in the old army. What's more, under Hu Biao, they all feel very free and relieved.

In addition to the fact that they could not deduct the soldiers' salaries as before, the treatment and trust given to them by Hu Biao also made them feel happy and moved. On the side of the external supervisor, they also really realized the lot of help given by Hu Biao.

The most important thing is that, compared to the old troops, the superiors always ordered them to attack every once in a while. Sometimes you know that you can't beat the little devil, but you have to attack hard. Now, every sortie needs to be applied for in advance.

If you don't know how to fight, the base will basically not agree. This also means that whenever they go out to fight, they must ensure that the battle is smooth and victorious. If you don't fight, you don't have to worry about being harshly criticized from above, you just need to manage your training and troops.

Xu Mingzhi, the deputy head of the base, was also transferred away this time, and many people guessed that Xu Mingzhi would probably not return to the base after leaving. Is the base about to be abandoned?

When Hu Biao learned of this situation, he quickly summoned the responsible persons of the guerrilla units around the base and emphasized the next operational planning and deployment of the troops and the importance of the Anhuashan base to the troops, and did not want to cause chaos because of this.

Regarding the transfer of Xu Mingzhi, Hu Biao also said seriously: "You guys, now you are all in charge of the government, and Lao Xu has always been your housekeeper and mother-in-law." But have you forgotten that Lao Xu's military command ability is no worse than yours.

This time, I dispatched elites to participate in the Battle of Star City, hoping to give Lao Xu a chance to lead the troops into battle. Usually you are yelling one by one, hoping to approve more of your combat missions, what about the old Xu? Let him have a good time, shouldn't he? ”

Such an explanation made the subordinates speechless. On the other hand, Xu Mingzhi, who was teased, pretended to be angry and said: "Rabbit cubs, do you want to rebel?" In terms of rank, I am higher than you. As for the number of battles I have led my troops in, I have more than you.

Usually you are out one by one, so it should be my turn to play majestic, right? As for the base, apart from the transfer of some troops, do you think the base has relaxed its vigilance? Unless we evacuate en masse, this is our retreat and our nest.

No matter when, we must be optimistic about this family and guard this acre and three points of land. In that case, no matter how far we go in the future, no matter how far we go, we will have a place to rest when we come back. Don't forget, there are brothers left forever in Beishan! ”

The so-called Beishan is actually the martyr's cemetery built by Hu Biao in Anhua Mountain. From the day the unit was formed, the soldiers who died in battle were buried there without exception. A monument was erected, and it also tells the story of what battle they died in.

There is such a burial place, and when the country is liberated after the end of the Anti-Japanese War in the future, the families of these martyrs who sacrificed will at least know why their families died and where they were buried. This base, naturally, will not be given up easily.

Like the Anhua Mountain base, there is also a base in Malingshan. In general, these two bases are the bases that Hu Biao cares about the most and invests the most manpower and material resources. The rest of the partisan camps were more of resting and fighting grounds.

At present, the main force of the army has been moved to the southwest one after another, and the base areas behind enemy lines in Kesu Province and the surrounding areas are equally important in Hu Biao's view. Even if the Japanese army later announced its unconditional surrender, the little devils in the enemy-occupied areas of the Soviet Province still controlled the occupied areas.

In Hu Biao's view, retaining some troops around the Soviet province was also conducive to seizing the fruits of victory. Compared with other receiving troops, once the Japanese army announced its unconditional surrender, Hu Biao could immediately send troops to receive the Japanese army's troops and weapons and equipment.

Perhaps at that time, Hu Biao no longer looked down on the little devil's weapons and equipment. However, Hu Biao believed that Hu Biao could also seize more funds from the Japanese army in the occupied areas of the Soviet Province and Shanghai, which were the focus of the Japanese army.

In any case, Hu Biao still has the signboard of the National Major General on his body at the moment, and he and the troops under his command are the combat troops of the National Army when they change into the military uniforms of the National Army. As for whether to listen to the tune or not, what is the matter with the little devil?

The high-level meeting of the base ended, and the base, which was originally panicked, quickly settled down. The guerrilla leaders who were ordered to come to the meeting also knew that Hu Biao had not given up on them. Knowing this, they felt much more at ease.

If Hu Biao really wanted to abandon them, there was no need to summon them over for a meeting. Moreover, before the meeting, Hu Biao inspected several guerrilla units and supplemented them with a large amount of American-style weapons and equipment.

After settling down on the side of the base, Hu Biao began to lead the last assault battalion to rush to the front line of the Battle of Star City, which had already begun. There, Xu Sandao and the assault battalion assembled in advance had already begun to rest and reconnoitre.

From the information we have learned so far, the Japanese army launched an offensive along northern Jiangxi, southern Hunan, and northern Hunan. The troops of the Ninth Theater stationed in Hunan Province, under the command of Xue Yue, its acting commander, adopted a strategy of resolute resistance and defense.

In the Battle of Wuhan that ended last year, Xue Yue also became famous in the first battle, and became a famous anti-Japanese general in the national army with the victory of Wanjialing. And the commander of the Japanese army who led the offensive this time was also Okamura Ninji, who was known as a famous general of the Japanese army.

In terms of troops, the Ninth Theater occupies a geographical and numerical advantage, while the Japanese army occupies the strategic initiative and the advantage of being well-equipped. In the face of Okamura Ningji's three-way attack, Xue Yue also commanded his combat troops to contain and block the Japanese army.

On the way to the front line of Star City, Hu Biao did not forget to visit the guerrilla areas set up along the way. Some of these guerrilla zones were established in enemy-occupied areas, while others were established in nationally controlled areas. In order to avoid conflict, most guerrilla zones were established in occupied areas.

A few years ago, Hu Biao ordered Xu Sandao to be responsible for establishing land communication channels, and some of these guerrilla areas were established near the routes of the Japanese attack. As well as the Japanese army's offensive and marching routes, Hu Biao was able to control them in time.

Even in many cases, the intelligence group under Hu Biao's command could provide some information on the Japanese army to the military command, and give more intelligence support to the Ninth Theater. Even Dai Li also thinks that Hu Biao is still very interesting!

When Hu Biao arrived at the territory of Linxiang on the border of northern Hunan Province, Xu Sandao, who had been waiting here for a long time, also personally led a reconnaissance detachment to greet the Anhuashan commando team who came from afar. The rest of the commandos are also on standby in the surrounding stations to rest.

Stationed in the base area behind the enemy established in advance, looking at the orderly combat members, Hu Biao was also very satisfied and said: "Three knives, not bad!" It seems that you are on your own, and you really chose the right person! The contact points along the way, the construction is very good! ”

"Wolf head, this is what I should do! To be honest, this kind of thing really doesn't work for me. Managing so many people and choosing so many places is more tiring than fighting little devils! In the future, let's leave this matter to others! ”

"Come less, you, like Lao Qin and them, always want to be more relaxed. If I'm in charge of everything, what are you going to do? If you don't know how to learn, you can learn, not to mention that you are doing well, you just don't want to worry too much, right? ”

As the earliest person to follow Hu Biao, Xu Sandao, Qin Tianyou and others have also grown up one after another. In terms of combat capability alone, they are undoubtedly relatively strong in the military. But Hu Biao didn't want them to become simple martial artists.

Even if Hu Biao himself is a martial artist, but now that the scale of the army is expanding, he also hopes that Xu Sandao and others will also pick up more burdens. Compared with other selected subordinates, Hu Biao trusted the few old subordinates he brought out at the beginning.

Facing Hu Biao with a tiger's face, Xu Sandao also looked helpless. He could understand Hu Biao's expectations for them, but Xu Sandao still felt that it was indeed more laborious to be responsible for establishing a contact point than killing the enemy in battle than killing the little devil.

One is physical hardship, and the other is mental hardship. If they had a choice, including Qin Tianyou, I believe they would be more willing to engage in manual labor than to do brain-consuming things.

But in Hu Biao's view, in the future, if Qin Tianyou's old subordinates want to have a better future, they can't become simple military commanders. In the future settlements, Hu Biao will also let them shoulder the military and political as much as possible.

Even if you are not engaged in government affairs, you must also know some government affairs. Only in this way can the opened up settlements be controlled by Hu Biao from beginning to end. Don't worry about letting others take away the fruits of victory after a long time!

Stationed in the temporary base area, Hu Biao asked Xu Sandao about the specific battle situation in the war zone. It was learned that the Japanese army had advanced its troops to the outskirts of Star City, and the place of Linxiang had become a newly occupied area for the Japanese army.

As before, the Japanese army after occupying Linxiang quickly divided some troops to garrison. In addition to the task of stabilizing the rear, these garrison units also undertook the task of transporting supplies to the front line and receiving the wounded and prisoners of war.

After understanding the situation, Hu Biao said very directly: "Have you found out where the little devil is holding prisoners of war?" ”

"Figured it out! In northern Hunan, northern Jiangxi, and southern Hunan, there were special places for prisoners of war. During this time, the number of prisoners of war captured by the little devils is really quite a lot! It's just that the little devil doesn't seem to be getting too much bargain! ”

Compared with the battle launched by the Japanese army earlier, the resistance of the Japanese army in this Battle of Star City seems to be much tougher than before. This situation made Xu Sandao and other reconnaissance team members feel that the troops of the Ninth War Zone performed very well this time!
