Section 2 The Battle After the War XVII
The third part of the Bloody War of Resistance, Chapter 9, the second section, the battle after the war
Lin B's voice was a little thin and soft, and he turned to face mZD and Zhu D: "In Henan, Zhuang Jihua put up a defensive formation, with the 31st Group Army and the New Eighth Army on the first line, the Fifth Army and the 21st Group Army on the second line, and the 17th Army, the Third Army and the First Army on the third line. , M / This formation is very confusing, the first line is strong in the middle and weak in the east, but the key is the Fifth Army, this group army is the elite of the Central Army, Zhuang Jihua put it in the second line, in fact, it is still the main force behind the formation, I believe that no matter which direction the Japanese army crosses the river, the tank division of the Fifth Army can arrive within forty-eight hours, or launch a counteroffensive within forty-eight hours. ”
Lin B came back from the battlefield of Soviet Russia and had seen large-scale tank battles, the kind of hundreds of tank group charges, and its power was unstoppable, so he attached the most importance to the tank units of the Fifth Army.
"The Fifth Army is placed here, and it also has a role, that is, to confuse Okamura Ningji, so that he thinks that the next offensive direction is to cross the Yellow River and go north, but in fact, the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Fifth Theater, except for the First Group Army, the rest of the troops have not moved at all, and they are still training in northern Hubei, but in fact, these hundreds of thousands of people are Zhuang Jihua's main striking force."
Speaking of this, Lin B was a little excited, and his face flushed a little: "Let's talk about the favorable conditions for attacking Xuzhou, behind Xuzhou, there are 400,000 people in the Linzheng Sulu Theater, the elite 47th Army trained by Zhuang Jihua and the 25th Division of Guan Linzheng's descendants expanded into an army, and Li Xianzhou's 92nd Army, these three troops have good combat effectiveness, plus Yu Xuezhong's 51st Army, they can completely form an east-west attack with Zhuang Jihua." Based on these points, I think Zhuang Jihua is eighty percent sure of conquering Xuzhou. ”
"After the recovery of Xuzhou, the Japanese army's connection between East China and North China was cut off, at this time, Zhuang Jihua had more choices, but I still think that he will attack Shandong, conquer Shandong, further divide East China and North China, and make Xuzhou completely stable, and there are too many favorable conditions for attacking Shandong, and he will never use it."
mZD's expression became more serious, Ye Jying had also made such a judgment before, and now his most trusted general, Lin B, who was also pulled up by him, also thought so, which made him even more convinced, Zhuang Jihua must go to Xuzhou, and what he said to Chen G was not a lie.
Zhuang Jihua's action judgment is clear, but what needs to be implemented in the end is how the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army will act, otherwise everything is meaningless.
Before the Anti-Japanese War, mZD had a strategic layout, the wonder of this layout, Zhou EN was the first to understand, and later Zhu D also understood, but now with the Jiangnan New Fourth Army going north, the original strategic layout began to deform, and it was decided to go all out to fight for Jizhong, ensure Taihang Mountain, and develop Jinchaji and Shandong. However, the Great Sweep of Central Hebei that began last year caused the entire Central Hebei region to fall, and the New Fourth Army was hit hard, and this time the Hebei-Shandong-Henan border region was suppressed, and the mZD urgently needed to make strategic adjustments.
The Japanese army was unexpectedly defeated in northern Hubei, the Kuomintang recovered Wuhan, the Japanese army withdrew from the south bank of the Yellow River, and the situation of the Anti-Japanese War was quickly reversed and entered the stage of strategic counteroffensive. Unexpectedly, entering the counteroffensive stage, the development of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army actually became difficult.
"For the sake of peace after the war, we must take Jizhong." mZD thought about it again and again: "Call back to Chen G, agree with his suggestion, reorganize the troops in Hebei, Shandong, and Henan, and ask the Kuomintang to provide some weapons, give numbers, pay military salaries, give food, and the most important point, only contact Zhuang Jihua." ”
Speaking of this, mZD stood up and slowly walked two steps back and forth in the cave, and one of his previous ideas slowly matured: "Telegraph to Comrade He L to secretly assemble the main forces of the 120th Division and the 326th Division, prepare to develop northward, and open up contact with Outer Mongolia." The secret telegram Peng D Huai Liu B Cheng Ye Ting secretly assembled troops and was ready to return to Jizhong at any time. When the above ministries will be dispatched, it will be ordered by the central government. ”
"Comrade Nie Rzhen, a secret telegram, immediately dispatched a powerful team to the east of Rehe and Hebei to investigate the situation in the area."
"Telegraph to Comrade Luo Rhuan and Chen Y, secretly assemble troops, and be ready to cooperate with the Kuomintang army in its counterattack on Shandong at any time."
After thinking about it, mZD felt that it had lost its political reason to develop to the south, the Japanese army gathered in the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Delta, the guerrilla living space was compressed, and the Kuomintang troops on the periphery gathered, although Hunan, Jiangxi, and Hubei were relatively empty, but politically they were not allowed; Rather than sit and wait, it is better to let go and develop northward, open up contacts with Soviet Russia, and maintain a favorable strategic position after the war.
The main force of the development to the north is He L's northwest Jin troops, He L since he led his troops to Outer Mongolia, obtained a large number of weapons and equipment from the Soviet Union, and the troops were expanded to two armies, mZD has not been willing to take out these two armies to consume, and now he is going to release the tiger out of the mountain, and the time is of course when Okamura Ningji's attention is attracted to Shandong.
"Lin B, how is your health?"
Lin B was overjoyed when he heard this, after returning from the Soviet Union, when the central government asked for his opinion, he proposed to go to Taihang Mountain, but mZD did not agree, but let him continue to cultivate in Yan'an, and now mZD is going to use him.
"Good, very good."
A smile appeared on Zhu D's dark face, but to Lin B's disappointment, mZD just nodded, pushed open the door and left without saying anything.
Seeing Lin B's disappointed look, Zhu D shook his head slightly, this ** usually looks meek, but when he is in a hurry, he reveals it unabashedly.
"Don't worry, the chairman has already considered where you are going, wait."
"Boss," in front of other generals, including Peng Dhuai, Lin B is more arrogant, but not in front of Zhu D, Zhu D has always been his superior, his leader, so he put down his body and asked a little eagerly: "Where are you going?" ”
"It's either Shandong or Jinchaji, and you'll know when the time comes."
Shandong and Jinchaji are actually Lin B's old troops, developed by the 115th Division adapted from the Red First Army, Lin B is going to these two places, there is no problem of unfamiliarity between the top and bottom, and the command is bound to be handy, especially Shandong; However, Zhu D guessed that mZD would send Lin B to Jinchaji, and from the deployment just now, this old guy had already determined the policy of developing to the north, where is the north? Chahar, Inner Mongolia, Rehe, and the three eastern provinces.
Chen G didn't expect Yan'an to make a decision so quickly, but he didn't rush to tell Zhuang Jihua, but waited for Zhuang Jihua to send two million catties of grain and the weapons and ammunition he asked for.
This time, Chen G swaggered into the civil rights, and when he arrived in front of the military department of the new Eighth Army, he unceremoniously told the sentry to let Zhuang Jihua come out to greet the guests, and the sentry was not puzzled, but fortunately, he still went in to report on his patched Eighth Route Army uniform, but it didn't take long to see Commander Zhuang and Commander Gao come out with a group of people to greet him.
Zhuang Jihua used the investigation and punishment of the civil rights grain depot to civil rights, and when he arrived at the civil rights, he first became angry at the military headquarters, and all from Gao Shuxun and down were reprimanded, the escaped company commander was wanted, the battalion commander and regiment commander were dismissed, transferred to the military academy to study, the division commander was seriously warned, and a series of punishments made the New Eighth Army silent.
After dealing with the fire in the grain depot, Zhuang Jihua turned his attention to the production around Minquan to save himself, there are many rivers in Minquan, Kangxi Qianlong ruled the Yellow River, and opened up several trunk canals, but it did not rain for several months, and most of these trunk canals were cut off.
Gao Shuxun reminded Zhuang Jihua that there is a great agricultural proverb that after the great drought, there will be a major flood, and the Yellow River embankment should be strengthened as soon as possible, and the main canal should be repaired, so as to fight drought on the one hand and prepare for flood control on the other.
Zhuang Jihua even claimed that it was, and immediately telegraphed Tang Enbo and Li Peiji, asking them to order the mobilization of the victims to work for relief and repair the Yellow River embankment, and the army was responsible for providing armed protection.
However, repairing the embankment of the Yellow River is a huge expense, Zhuang Jihua has no extra grain in his hands, he knows that it is useless to ask Chiang Kai-shek for help, and he does not have many materials in his hands, so he had to telegraph Mei Yuntian and Zhang Jingjiang again, and allocate 5 million US dollars to buy grain in Hunan and Guangdong, and transport it to Henan in the fastest time.
But at this time, Chen G came to the door, and when he saw Chen G's conditions, Zhuang Jihua was angry: "I said Chen G, you kid is too treacherous, I just sent you two million catties of grain, and you came to ask for it again, you and I are the one who opened the grain depot, absolutely nothing."
Chen G grinned, and stepped forward to pat Zhuang Jihua's shoulder nonchalantly: "I said the Cultural Revolution, you are a rich man, and if you leak a point from your fingers, it is enough for hundreds of thousands of people in our base area to chew their heads." ”
"Missing a point? You said it lightly, there are only hundreds of thousands of people there, I have millions of people here, food is given to you, what will they do? Zhuang Jihua sneered: "Also, weapons and ammunition? I just gave you so much, and you came to ask for it again, you and I am the principal, you see. ”
As he spoke, he took out a telegram from his document bag and threw it in front of Chen G: "This is given to me by the principal, you are better off as my son." ”
Chiang Kai-shek was very dissatisfied with Zhuang Jihua's provision of two million catties of food to Chen G, and severely reprimanded, "I am up and down, cut down on food and clothing, so as to get some disaster relief food, and you, as the commander, ignore the millions of victims in Yu Province; Blindly favoritism, we can know that party discipline and state law are in.... ”
The sternness of his tone was unprecedented, and Chen G pouted: "This principal is still so stingy, and the military and civilians in the Luyu Border Region are not Chinese?" Funny"
"You have to think about it for me, I don't want to go back to Chongqing." Zhuang Jihua scolded angrily: "You kid is the same as before, you don't have enough to take advantage"
"If you have a advantage, you don't take advantage of it, that's a bastard" Chen G didn't care about Zhuang Jihua's anger at all, and still said with a smile: "Don't I also have good things for you?" You see I'm your subordinate now, and you're not satisfied? With subordinates like me, you are invincible and invincible."
