(Recommended reading: As the saying goes, poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people.

The location of Trojan Horse County and the liberated area occupied by the Eighth Route Army are typical poor mountains and bad waters in this era of inconvenient transportation.

In the land of poor mountains and bad waters, the people are often fierce and unscrupulous, unscrupulous for the sake of interests, in fact, it has nothing to do with the region, just because everyone wants to live, and on the basis of living, they also want to live better, in addition to becoming a Diao people, there may be some possibilities, what can they do? There is simply no other way out.

Lu Yuan's current plan is no different from the Diao people in people's mouths, he doesn't have it, and no one can send it to the door, so he can only rob and grab it by unscrupulous means.

Although he knew that even if he snatched the supplies from the Japanese, there was no difference between him and his own efforts to rob the rations of the people in the Japanese-occupied areas, and when he finished robbing them, the Japanese troops and puppet troops in the Japanese-occupied areas would double down on the common people in order to survive and pay the tasks to the Japanese troops in the war zone, and those ordinary people would live more difficult.

But he decided to do so without the slightest hesitation.

It's not that he is cruel, but in his opinion, he went to rob the supplies of the Japanese army, not only solved the urgent need of the Sichuan Army Independent Regiment, but also the more the Japanese army oppressed the Shun people in those Japanese-occupied areas, the more ruthless they were, the greater the rebound in the future, it is simply a matter of killing two birds with one stone!

Perhaps, it is inevitable that some people will be implicated in starvation and killed because of their actions, but this is the cruel reality that the Chinese must face at present, either desperately resist the burning of jade, or swallow their anger and go against the grain, there is no middle way to go.

Not only will Lu Yuan not be able to walk himself, but he also does not want anyone to try to swim in this gap.

In fact, the Eighth Route Army did not levy taxes in the liberated areas but relied on the capture of the war against Japan to feed the huge team, and there was no difference between what Lu Yuan planned to do.

The poor god is treacherous, the rich have a long conscience, the independent regiment of the Sichuan Army and the Eighth Route are the same, they are too poor and have to make evil moves.

Lu Yuan looked at a few people and said with a smile: "Haven't you Eighth Route Army been planning to comprehensively recover the county towns around the base area and expand the area of the base area?" Now is the best opportunity, not only to give the little devil a hard blow, but also to take the opportunity to expand the influence of the Red Army, right? ”

"Where do you want to hit?"

Lei Ming and the others asked, after talking for a long time, they still didn't know Lu Yuan's core purpose, looking at Lu Yuan's strange smile and almost crazy eyes, they were thinking, this guy wouldn't be crazy enough to fight the surrounding Datong, Zhangjiakou and other military places, right? Just the people of their Sichuan Army Independent Regiment?

"There are still twenty days of preparation, at the beginning of March, your Eighth Route Army and our Sichuan Army Independent Regiment will do their best, and vigorously fight the little devils......"

Lu Yuan said with a smile: "When the time comes, your Eighth Route Army will do your best, expand the base area and collect materials, and our Sichuan Army Independent Regiment will be able to check and fill in the gaps, and eat some leftovers, a few regiment commanders, don't forget our brotherhood, when the time comes, you will eat with a mouthful of oil, don't forget to leave a soup for my regiment to drink!" ”

“……”

Lei Ming and the others looked at Lu Yuan suspiciously, they didn't know what the hell he was doing, they wouldn't believe that a madman like Lu Yuan would be willing to do some work to check and fill in the gaps.

The atmosphere of the battle gradually spread, and bullets, as well as various mines and grenades newly developed with nitrified starch, were continuously transported to Trojan County.

At the same time, Wang Mingzhang, the commander-in-chief of the 41st Army, ordered Zhang Xuanwu's regiment to be stationed in Beishahe, north of Teng County, and Wang Wenzhen was stationed in Pingyi.

Garrisoned in Tengxian County, it was the 22nd Group Army of the Sichuan Army, led by Sun Zhen, and the main weapons of the soldiers were Sichuan-made 79 rifles and broadswords, with a total strength of no more than 10,000 people.

In the face of the Japanese army eyeing the tiger, the soldiers of the Sichuan army were high-spirited, sharpened their knives, and swore to fight to the death with the Japanese army to the end!

"The Japanese army is menacing, the officers and men of the Sichuan army are not afraid of danger, and Division Commander Wang is really good at leading the troops!"

Zhou Tongdao, the magistrate of Tengxian County, who had just been in office for more than a month, thought that as soon as he took office, Tengxian County would become a must-take place in the eyes of the Japanese army.

"Our equipment and the quality of our soldiers are far from the Japanese army, and the only one with a little advantage may be the only one left with this blood......"

Wang Mingzhang is also melancholy in his heart, of course he knows the current situation, it is impossible to hold Teng County, but he firmly believes that as long as everyone gets rid of prejudices and is united, it is absolutely possible to give the little devil a heavy blow, but although hundreds of thousands of troops gather around Xuzhou, there are many internal factions, and there are many contradictions between the commanders of the various armies.

Defeat is not terrible, what he is afraid of is that the commanders of the various armies let the soldiers of the Sichuan Army with high fighting spirit under them spill their blood in vain because of their own selfishness.

"Master Wang, what you said is good, if you can't do anything, then you and I will pour this blood on this land!"

Zhou Tong obviously understood the current situation, and laughed: "Since the Anti-Japanese War, there have only been martyrs of generals, and there are no martyred magistrates. ”

"Okay, although the county magistrate Zhou is a literati, he has this arrogance, Wang admires, from now on, you and I share weal and woe, I am responsible for defending the city and fighting, you are responsible for mobilizing the support of the people, let us finish this battle vigorously!"

Wang Mingzhang also began to laugh, in fact, in his heart, although he has now received the order to defend to the end, it may not be death, Tang Enbo's Twentieth Army is the most important reinforcement force around Xuzhou, as long as Tengxian Taierzhuang can contain most of the Japanese army's strength head-on, this battle may not really have no chance of winning!

At the same time, Laiyuan, Anyuan, Anyang and other places, the situation after the year has also undergone tremendous changes.

Zhou Biao was appointed as the captain of the Japanese army's advance brigade stationed in Lai'anwei, and two regiments of the advance brigade totaling 4,000 people were formed on the spot, and the problem of funds was solved on the spot and at the same time responsible for the collection and collection of various taxes.

Just after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the work of conscription and the collection of various taxes began immediately.

Many ordinary people are reluctant to send their sons and husbands to the battlefield, but the advance brigade will not give them a chance to resist at all, it is best to voluntarily join the army, and if you don't want to, you will be tied directly with a rope, and at the same time, the collection of various taxes is also extremely rude, and all kinds of materials are apportioned according to the capita, and those who can afford it must be paid, and those who can't afford it must be paid!
