In 1939, the Japanese invaders lost all their strength on the Chinese battlefield, and they attacked with little success, the war situation fell into a stalemate, the domestic economy also began to decline, and logistics gradually fell into difficulties.

The year 1939 was undoubtedly a frustrating year for the Japanese invaders, because after all, it was not an easy task to annex the Chinese country with a small state.

However, there is no turning back from the bow, and the Japanese invaders obviously want to continue on this crazy road!

At this time, the vigorous winter offensive kicked off at the end of 39, and the vast number of anti-Japanese soldiers surprised the Japanese with their actions, "The enemy's will to attack is extremely tenacious, and its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated...... This was a lesson for the Imperial Army, which lacked offensive enthusiasm...... It is necessary to reassess the enemy's combat strength ......"

As a result, the Japanese began to plan a large-scale retaliatory counterattack.

During the Battle of Guinan, the Japanese invaders increased their troops three times, intending to turn the Battle of Guinan into the "last battle of the China Incident", however, by February 13, 40, the Battle of Guinan came to an end, and the Japanese invaders' attempts failed again.

On 25 February, the 11th Army of the Japanese invaders formulated the "Guiding Policy for the Battle" and prepared to launch a large-scale retaliatory counterattack in Central China, "intending to defeat the main forces of the enemy's Fifth Theater in the area on both sides of the Han River before the rainy season comes, further weaken Chiang's army through the victory of the battle, and contribute to the progress of politics and strategy toward China." ”

To this end, the Headquarters of the Central China Dispatch Army of the Japanese invaders transferred the main force of the 11th Army, two detachments of the 13th Army, the 3rd Flying Regiment, the 1st Dispatch China Fleet of the Navy's "Chinese Fleet," and the 2nd Combined Air Force, totaling nearly 200,000 troops, to make active preparations for launching the Zao and Yi battles.

At this time, the anti-Japanese soldiers stationed in Zhongtiao Mountain also began to launch a small-scale attack on the Japanese invaders, and surprisingly, the base area was not immediately attacked by the little devils, and obviously, the little devils were brewing a bigger conspiracy.

However, no matter what conspiracy the little devils had, they all freed up their hands for the soldiers and civilians in the base areas to vigorously grasp spring plowing and production.

The spring of the 40 years was earlier than in the 39 years, and the warm up of the earth also provided convenience for the spring ploughing production, and by the end of March, the spring ploughing in the base field had basically ended, and the earth was full of greenery and vitality.

April 5th, Qingming, sunny and shining.

Li Siwei led his troops to pay tribute to the brothers buried on the mountainside after the West Mountain, independent of the mountainside, looking at the bottom of the mountain, the depression in his heart gradually dissipated.

Spring ploughing is over, it's time to let it go!

"Commander," Huang Hua walked over gently, looking at the green crops at the bottom of the mountain, his thin face was full of emotion, "When the brothers were on the bloody battlefield, who would have thought that there would be such a thriving scene?" ”

"Thriving?" Li Siwei was stunned and shook his head gently, "Old Dao, this scene ...... It's still vulnerable! ”

"No," Huang Hua turned his head to look at Li Siwei, his expression resolute, "It's definitely going to get better and better here!" ”

Brothers...... Long war Si'an!

However, there is nothing wrong with this, honest farmers can take up arms and fight hard with little devils, isn't it just to keep the land and keep a peaceful life?

Li Siwei sighed secretly, took out a cigarette and handed it to Huang Hua, and gently changed the topic, "Let the brothers rest for a few days, the little devil doesn't move, but we can't not move!" ”

"Yes!" Huang Hua hurriedly agreed, and smiled, "It's finally time to do it...... Turtles, little devils' good things are pulled by carts, and every time we touch them, we feel itchy in our hearts, and we have long wanted to do a few deals on dog days. ”

Unlike the rest of the units, the special service company did not participate in spring ploughing, but went all out to spy on the enemy's situation, and smuggled some oil, salt and medicine supplies in short supply along the way.

It was only because he wanted to grasp spring plowing and production that Li Siwei had strictly ordered the special service company not to act rashly, which made those brothers who often ran to enemy-occupied areas miserable.

At this time, the spring ploughing in the regiment had ended, and Li Siwei was ready to let the brothers rest for a few days before they started.

It's just that the plan often can't catch up with the changes, and as soon as Li Siwei returned to the regiment headquarters, he received an order from the division headquarters, and hurriedly took Li Sanguang to Monan.

At the beginning of night, the conference room of the division headquarters in Monan Town was brightly lit, and the chief officers of the division and above gathered together.

"It's all here," on the main seat, Division Commander Chen's gaze slowly swept over the generals, with a solemn expression, "According to the information of the group army headquarters, the Japanese invaders will carry out a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the base area in the near future. ”

As he spoke, Division Commander Chen's voice paused, stood up, picked up a sandalwood short stick, and walked to the military map, and the wooden stick landed in Yuncheng, "According to the intelligence, the headquarters has preliminarily determined that the main attacker of the Japanese invaders this time wants to be in the central region. ”

As he spoke, the wooden stick in Division Commander Chen's hand slowly crossed Taichen and Pinglu on the map, "The intention of the Japanese invaders is obvious--to concentrate their forces to break through from the central part and take Maojindu directly along Zhangmao Avenue, with the intention of completely destroying the base area in the western section of Zhongtiao Mountain. ”

The generals knew that Maojindu was an important ferry port on the north bank of the Yellow River, and was an important supply point for the garrison of Zhongtiao Mountain.

"Brothers," Senior Commander Chen returned to the table and sat down, his voice slow and dignified, "the forces used by the Japanese invaders this time ...... It is likely to be comparable to the June Six Campaign, if not more! ”

After that, Division Commander Chen's gaze slowly swept over the generals, "The commander of the headquarters wants to ask everyone's opinions!" ”

"Just hit it! What else do you say? ”

"That's right, just fight, it doesn't matter how many little devils he comes!"

"Last time, didn't the little devil run away with his tail between his legs?"

The generals were excited.

"Okay," Master Chen praised, "all departments hurry up and recuperate and prepare for war!" ”

The attitude of the junior officer was very clear, "As long as the little devil dares to come, he will fight hard!" ”

However, the officers above have not yet agreed on it.

It was late at night, the military headquarters of the 38th Army was brightly lit and busy, and Commander Zhao was sitting at the table, flipping through a document.

"Jingle Bell ......"

The phone on the table rang suddenly, Commander Zhao put down the file and raised his head, a wry smile crept up the corner of his mouth, and grabbed the phone with a little hesitation.

"Commander Zhao!" On the other end of the phone, there was a hint of anger in the voice of Chief of Staff Guo of the Theater Command, "Why don't you commanders answer the phone?" ”

"Chief of Staff," Commander Zhao understood, and hurriedly laughed, "The Japanese attack is imminent, the commander should go to inspect the front, what instructions does the chief of staff have, his post must convey it as soon as possible." ”

There was a slight silence on the other end of the phone, and Chief of Staff Guo's tone softened slightly, "Shoushan, you can't hold Wangyuan, you should take your troops around behind enemy lines and fight on the Tongpu line." ”

"Chief of Staff," Commander Zhao sighed softly, with a wry smile on his face, "Although the instructions of the theater command are more reasonable, however, Maojindu is very important, if Maojindu is lost, the officers and men of our department will be destroyed for several years, and the Japanese will also take the opportunity to raise troops to cross the Yellow River......"

"Shoushan," Staff Officer Guo hurriedly interrupted Commander Zhao, and his voice was solemn, "What if, what if you can't hold it and change it?" As the saying goes, 'stay in the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood'......"

"Chief of Staff!" Commander Zhao's expression was solemn, and he said loudly, "Please tell Chief Wei, if you can't hold it, cut off my head and throw it into the Yellow River!" ”

"You ......" Chief of Staff Guo hesitated for a moment, and had to sigh, "That's it!" ”

"Chief of Staff, please be relieved," Commander Zhao advised, "The morale of the brothers is high, and they will definitely be able to thwart the encirclement and suppression of the Japanese invaders again!" ”

Since the Fourth Army entered Zhongtiao Mountain, the Japanese invaders have repeatedly encircled and suppressed them in failure, and Commander Zhao believes that this time will not be an exception!

Hung up the phone of Chief of Staff Guo, and Commander Zhao dialed the phone of the headquarters again.

Commander Zhao's phone was quickly answered, and Commander Sun's laughter rang on the other end of the phone, "Shoushan, the call has come to you?" ”

"Commander," Commander Zhao smiled bitterly, "You can not answer the phone, but your subordinates dare not answer!" ”

"It's hard for you," Commander Sun sighed, "The people above are too cautious, if you really follow what they say, the brothers will be cold!" ”

"My subordinates understand," Commander Zhao nodded hurriedly, his expression relaxed, "Staff Officer Guo should have agreed to let us give it a go!" ”

"Good!" Commander Sun's spirits perked up, "You come here, and we will specify the battle plan as soon as possible." ”

Li Siwei naturally couldn't know about these things, but he just followed Division Commander Chen's order to let all departments step up preparations for war.

Two days later, Li Siwei received the order to hold a meeting again and went to the division headquarters.

At the meeting, Division Commander Chen energetically assigned tasks, "The 1st Regiment, the 2nd Regiment and the Reserve Regiment strictly guarded the original defense area, and the 3rd and 4th regiments immediately assembled and moved eastward. ”

The 1st Regiment and the 2nd Regiment were stationed on the front line of Ruicheng to guard against the enemy of Yongji, and the reserve regiment, the 66th Regiment, was stationed on the first line of Yuejialing, choking the throat of the north and south of Mo, so as to repel the enemy in Yanchi.

After the order was issued, the various departments quickly took action, and the battle clouds in the middle of Zhongtiao Mountain were thick, and the wind and rain were coming.

On 17 April, the Japanese invaders launched the 11th "encirclement and suppression" against Zhongtiao Mountain, but the Japanese invaders were not as fierce as expected, and only the main force of the 37th Division participated in the battle.

On 17 April, the battle began in Taichen, and the main force of the Fourth Army consciously fought and retreated according to the predetermined plan, withdrew from Taichen, withdrew from Pinglu County, and lured the main force of the Japanese army to Wangyuan.

In the early morning of 19 April, a huge cold snap suddenly descended on the Zhongtiao Mountain area, the rain and snow in the Wangyuan area, the wind howled, and the thick trees at the mouth of the bowl were uprooted.

At the 66th Regiment station, the wind and snow were blowing, and the conference room of the regiment headquarters was brightly lit, Li Siwei sat at the table, listening to the wind and snow howling outside the house, and his heart was settled, "This battle won't last long!" ”

"Yes," Zheng Sanyang was also in a good mood, teasing, "I'm afraid that the little devil forgot to read the yellow calendar when he went out!" ”

Looking at the yellow calendar, I am afraid that I can't see this sudden spring cold.

"It's a pity," Li Siwei took out a cigarette and lit it, and sighed softly, "After this spring cold, I'm afraid that the crops in the field will suffer......

"Crops?" Zheng Sanyang was stunned, and laughed, "Isn't planting crops just to win the battle?" When the battle is over, it will be good to make up for it! ”

The "encirclement and suppression" of the little devils was defeated quickly and completely, just like this sudden spring cold.

On 21 April, the Japanese invaders pounced on the Wangyuan Heights from their Zhangdian stronghold north of Wangyuan, in a vain attempt to reverse the defeat, but they failed to break through the defensive line of the 17th Division of the 38th Army, and finally fell into encirclement on 25 April.

For a time, the war horses neighed, the sword flashed, and the killing was dark, and more than half of the Japanese were killed, which was for the great victory of Wangyuan.

When the good news came, the morale of the 66th Regiment was greatly boosted, and it began to replant crops again in good spirits.

The soldiers were not disappointed, after all, victory has always been built with blood and life, and real soldiers understand the bloodiness in it.

The friendly army won a great victory, and the officers and men of the 66th Regiment could only be full of joy!

After the cold spring, the sun was shining, and Li Siwei was walking around the station with Qiansheng in his arms, smiling and leisurely, like a farmer who was teasing his grandson.

The weather is warm, and the baby should also come out to bask in the sun, An An didn't dare to bring it out, but Qiansheng is much better.

Time flies, Qiansheng is about to be five months old, although he is still a little person, his eyes are much smarter, he is held in his arms by Li Siwei, struggling from time to time, looking around, his eyes are full of curiosity.

"Kill! Kill! Kill ......"

Li Siwei walked into the camp at the entrance of the village with Qiansheng in his arms, where training was underway, and the shouts of killing shook the sky and morale was like a rainbow.

"Smash...... Smash ......"

Suddenly, Qiansheng's small mouth opened and closed, and he let out a vague shout, Li Siwei was stunned when he heard it, and hurriedly looked down, but saw that Qiansheng's small mouth was still opening and closing, and a pair of clear eyes were shining, "Smash ......"

"Turtle's," Li Siwei looked at Qiansheng and exclaimed, "It is worthy of being a soldier's species!" ”

Hearing Li Siwei's words, Qiansheng raised his little head and stared at Li Siwei, with a hint of eagerness on his little face, still opening and closing his small mouth hard, "smashing ......"

"A thousand lives can talk?"

Li Sanguang, who was following behind him, also noticed something unusual, came up, and was full of exclamation when he saw this, "Fourth, this baby is unusual!" It's only been more than five months since I was able to speak......"

"Hey, hey,"

Li Siwei glanced at Li Sanguang, his face full of pride, "Can my species be worse?" ”

"Uh......" Li Sanguang froze for a moment and smiled disdainfully, "Fourth, I heard from my mother that you learned to speak more than a year old......"

Li Siwei froze, smiled wryly, looked down at Qiansheng in his arms, and slowly opened his mouth, as if he wanted Qiansheng to see his mouth shape clearly, "Kill ......"

Li Siwei doesn't understand children, but he always feels that a large part of children's babbling depends on lip synching.

"Kill ......"

Sure enough, Qiansheng opened his mouth again, and this time he could hear it clearly.

"Fourth," Li Sanguang glared at Li Siwei reproachfully, "How can you teach a baby to speak like this?" ”

Which teaching baby to speak is not to teach "mom and dad" or something like that?

Li Siwei smiled nonchalantly, "My son should teach ...... like this"

"Turtle's," Li Sanguang shook his head helplessly, "Aren't you afraid to teach Qiansheng to be the same as you?" ”

"Qiansheng, don't be afraid!" Li Siwei looked down at Qiansheng, his face full of love, "Don't be afraid of anything for Li Dacang's son!" ”
