Chapter 105 The Anti-Japanese National United Front under the Sudden Changes in the National Situation
The period from February to November of this year is destined to go down in history, and in China, such a period of change is really not too much.
On July 7, 1937, the July 7 Incident broke out, and the contradictions between China and Japan were finally completely ignited because of this long-planned fuse, and the Chinese nation had fallen into an unprecedented and huge crisis.
In August of the same year, Japan took advantage of the time of Hongqiao Airport to provoke the Battle of Shanghai, and the Battle of Songhu, the largest and fiercest battle in the history of China's Anti-Japanese War, broke out completely, and the national army fell into a tragic war.
On September 22, Chiang Kai-shek, who was forced by public opinion and the pressure of the Japanese army, finally ordered the publication of the "Declaration of the Communist Party of China for the Promulgation of the Cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party" in the Central News Agency of the Kuomintang.
Finally officially established.
In February of the same year, the CCP accepted the reorganization of the Nationalist Government, the Red Army of Northern Shaanxi was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army (18th Group Army), and the Southern CCP guerrillas were reorganized into the New Fourth Army.
In early August of the same year, the three divisions of the Eighth Route Army, which had been reorganized and implemented, set out from northern Shaanxi, Fuping, and Jingyang, passed through Hancheng and Tongguan, crossed the Yellow River in the east, and went to Shanxi to fight.
At the same time, the Battle of Taiyuan, the fall of Jilu, and the final defeat of the Battle of Songhu in November, the Nationalist Government moved its capital to Chongqing.
So far, a huge and world-renowned War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression has completely stepped onto the most dazzling stage in China.
……
……
Fast forward to the end of April 1937.
The news that the Red Army had accepted the reorganization of the Nationalist Government and had become the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army had all spread.
The Red Army was reorganized, and the 18th Group Army had a total of three divisions, the 115th, 120th, and 129th Divisions, with a total of more than 15,000 people.
Among them, the 129th Division, division commander Liu Bocheng, deputy division commander Xu Xiangqian, and chief of staff Ni Zhiliang have two brigades: the 385th Brigade and the 386th Brigade, which are the battle sequence lists registered by the national army.
On the day the order was implemented, in the division headquarters of Yu Shengli, the former commander of the Ninth Division, Lin Dashan was angrily scolding his mother in front of him, "Old chief, this old Jiang is really a fucking bastard, in order to save some military salaries, he was stunned to compress our establishment so much, Lao Tzu's old third regiment didn't even get on the battle sequence, it's really fucking annoying to think about it." ”
Lin Dashan was dissatisfied and complained, in his opinion, the same anti-Japanese troops were all for the safety of the nation, and they should not guard against each other and calculate each other.
But Lin Dashan didn't notice Yu Shengli's face, and when he complained again and stopped talking, Yu Shengli finally spoke: "It's over, when you fucking finish, you will honestly go back to prepare for the war for me, Lao Tzu has no place to reason!"
Aren't you just not on the board! Anyway, he is still a regiment commander, and his official position has not moved for half a minute, but what about Lao Tzu! A dignified division commander has now been made a brigade commander, a new third brigade that has also not been established, you say, who will Lao Tzu recruit? ”
Lin Dashan stopped talking, his heart suddenly felt a lot better, he glanced at Yu Shengli with some sympathy, and then slipped away when Yu Shengli's anger was about to explode.
At the same time, Han Xin also received an order, the new first regiment, the old third regiment of Lin Dashan, and the 310th regiment were also under the jurisdiction of the new third brigade.
This was the situation after the reorganization of the Red Army at that time, but this new third brigade was still a little different, both belonging to the 129th and 115th divisions and the 120th division.
Why? It turned out that the Red Army now has a total of three divisions, and the strength of the troops is really limited and tight, and this extra new brigade has not been established, so it has naturally become the object of competition among the commanders of the three divisions.
After all, the strength of a brigade, even if it is insufficient, is enough for them to covet.
In the end, it was the commander-in-chief Zhu De who opened his mouth and thought of a compromise method, so that the newly formed four brigades could be transferred to the three divisions at the same time, and this matter was finally understood.
But the problem came again, a brigade had to listen to the orders of three divisions at the same time, which was really difficult for a strong man, but the corresponding method was quickly discussed by Liu Bocheng, Lin Biao and others, it was very simple, each division would just take away a regiment.
……
Lin Biao was in a very unhappy mood today, and he was about to rush to the vicinity of Pingxingguan to start the first battle between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army.
Lin Biao has always been unconvinced by the terrifying combat power of the Japanese army, he still doesn't believe it, even if it is iron, he has to poke a few holes for him, in addition, I heard that the Japanese army's equipment is very good, he has been greedy for this for a long time.
He Lin Biao has never been afraid of fighting!
However, when the lot was drawn today, he was very back, and he actually drew the new regiment of the new Third Brigade, and I heard that he was still a predecessor or a group of son bandits, and now, he really didn't know what to say.
It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, although he Lin Biao is very good at fighting, he also needs soldiers who can fight!
In the end, there was no way, Lin Biao had already made up his mind, what to say, he would not use this new regiment as the main force, if it didn't work, he would clean up the battlefield and transport the loot.
At the beginning of August, the 18th Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army, that is, the Eighth Route Army, marched to Pingxingguan, Shanxi, which was in the second theater.
In the new regiment, Han Xin is struggling to persuade several leaders of the new regiment, that is, Wu Gang, Zhao Gaobiao and others, because they have to go to the battlefield, the arms that the Black Tiger Village has accumulated for many years cannot be brought at all.
Wu Gang had already carried several bird guns on his body, and he didn't mean to stop yet, muttering: "And this, well, this, you have to take it away, it's a pity to stay here!" ”
Long Tianyan is no better, Shuangfeng is about to be deformed by the guns, and he is still selecting, and he looks like a wealth fan.
Han Xin finally couldn't help laughing, and said bitterly: "I said that the two battalion commanders, what you know is that you are going to the battlefield to fight, and those who don't know think that you are going to sell arms!" ”
"Do you take so much, do you use it? Besides, look at these things you chose, some of them took a lot of effort to kill a pig, and they still wanted to use it to kill the enemy? ”
Long Tianyan ignored Han Xin's taunt, dragged another Hanyang Zao, and retorted: "It's better than nothing, but the old lady has heard that many Red Army troops don't even have such old goods as bird guns!" ”
"So, why don't we send some to them?" Han Xin quipped.
"That's not good, this is all the belongings of our Black Tiger Village!" Long Tianyan looked at Han Xin with a vigilant look, for fear that he would really make such a decision.
Han Xin smiled bitterly, these things, it takes a lot of effort to equip a new group of them, and they look at a lot of them, but in fact, most of them are chicken ribs, like these bird guns, arquebuses, not to mention the small power, it takes a lot of time to load gunpowder.
On the battlefield, there is no time for you to prepare slowly.
Ignoring these two people any more, Han Xin said to the new group of soldiers on the side: "Tell the comrades, let everyone follow the advice of the copper hammer, bring the powerful and usable arms, and don't take anything else, it can't affect the speed of the march." ”
"Yes!"
This soldier is obviously the old man of the Black Tiger Village, but there is no hesitation at this moment, in just a few months of training, these bandits of the Black Tiger Village, the changes are simply worlds apart.
At this moment, Yanran is a well-disciplined and well-groomed army, if there is anything missing, it is just iron and blood polished on the battlefield!
As for what Han Xin said at the beginning, the soldiers of the new regiment can retain the habits of the previous bandits, which has long been deliberately ignored by everyone.
It's like throwing a hooligan into the army, and all his bad habits can be easily corrected.
The special combat team has been training for so long, and it is not a hundred training.
"Xiao Han, what do you want?" Cheng Laohu walked over, and after being together for a few months, they became very familiar with each other, established a brotherly relationship, and spoke casually.
Han Xin paused, and then said with a smile: "Brother Cheng, I heard that you still have a few jars of treasured good wine, but I don't know if my brother has this oral oral!" ”
Cheng Laohu was stunned, who didn't know that Han Xin had never drunk a drop of alcohol, and he was very strict with himself, today, how could there be such a request, Cheng Laohu was even more keenly aware that between the corners of Han Xin's eyes, there was actually a faint hint of sadness and worry.
"What? Is Big Brother Cheng reluctant? That's it......"
"Hahaha, how can there be, brother, you want to drink, brother will prepare it for you at any time!" couldn't figure it out, Cheng Laohu simply put down the doubts in his heart, pulled Han Xin and ran to the wine table.
"Kuroko, two small dishes!"
