The city of the instructor is definitely a big deal for the whole of China, especially for a general like Han Yunhua who is the direct military leader of the troops, and the Party Central Committee will not do anything that has not happened. On the same day, Han Yunhua received a congratulatory message from the chairman and vice chairman Zhou from Yan'an, congratulating the establishment of the tutor.

At the same time, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was not far behind, sending a congratulatory telegram directly from the Shanxi front, and also promised to give the instructor the equipment of a reorganized regiment, which can be regarded as the support of the superior leader for Han Yunhua. For such a good thing, of course, Han Yunhua did not refuse, and it happened that his side was indeed very short of weapons and equipment during this time.

The meeting was held very successfully, and it did solve some practical problems encountered in the development of the troops during this period. The instructor now has three infantry brigades and a special operations squadron under his command, and his combat effectiveness is not strong among all the troops of the Eighth Route Army, and it is even more incomparable with the hundreds of thousands of elites in Saibei. However, all the officers, including Wei Peng and Jiang Yunshan, believed in the future of the instructor, not so much because they had confidence in the Eighth Route Army, but because they had confidence in Han Yunhua himself. They were the direct witnesses and participants of Han Yunhua's creation of the miracle of Saibei, and they knew the ability of this leader of theirs.

Sure enough, when they advanced into Shandong more than two months ago, they had less than one regiment of troops, but now in less than two months, they have grown from less than a regiment to the size of a whole division now, and such a leapfrog development is absolutely unprecedented, even if the scale of the displaced people coercing the people during the peasant uprising at the end of the Ming Dynasty is only so.

In the afternoon of the same day, Tong Jiayong, Jiang Yunshan, and others returned to their respective units, and at the end of the meeting, Han Yunhua made some small adjustments to the current positions of the various defense areas. Han Yunhua generally moved the main forces of the various troops to the north by 30 kilometers, and formed a semi-encirclement of Liaocheng on the map. In the eyes of Jiang Yunshan and others, Han Yunhua is a prelude to Liaocheng, and the "Han villain" who has been dormant for more than two months is finally about to show his fangs that make the little devil tremble again, and the devil who wants to come to Shandong is going to jump again.

In fact, during this time, the army was really not idle, and groups of troops began to move westward, but they only stopped moving when they arrived in Jining or Jinan, and only less than one infantry wing drove directly to Liaocheng. At the same time, the army began to frequently send representatives to Yanggu County to negotiate with the Huyan family, which was much beyond Han Yunhua's expectations.

Although Han Yunhua is familiar with history, it does not mean that Han Yunhua knows everything that happened in history. What he knew was some battle overviews and relatively advanced military knowledge, but Han Yunhua didn't know anything about a traditional family like the Huyan family that didn't even mention a word in the history books.

According to Han Yunhua's prediction, with his help, the Yue Jun and the Huyan family will no longer have room for maneuver, and the two sides will definitely launch a new and larger-scale conflict in a short period of time. But now it seems that the Huyan family is not as simple as imagined, and the army is very jealous of the Huyan family, otherwise the arrogant surname of the little devil will not just want to give up, and he will definitely not withdraw the army if the Huyan family is not destroyed.

Of course, Han Yunhua was not stupid enough to think that Yue Jun was playing a trick for him, and with his current reputation, even if Yue Jun knew about his existence, he would not take it seriously. In history, before the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, both the army and the national political axe were extremely disdainful of the Eighth Route Army led by [***]. However, the Battle of the Hundred Regiments made both sides see the power of [***] and the threat of the Eighth Route Army, so they will encircle and suppress [***] and sweep it into a major melody of the anti-Japanese war.

At this time, although there was a Han Yunhua in Saibei, which made the devil lose face again and again, in Shandong and the Yuben army south of the Yangtze River, the Eighth Route Army was not as unbearable as the legend, but it was by no means as powerful as the northern army. In addition, some time ago, a small offensive of the Chinese army in Shandong completely collapsed the forces of the Central [***] team in Shandong, including a unit of the Eighth Route Army led by [***], and now a number of prisoners of the Eighth Route Army are still being held in several relatively large prisoner of war camps in Shandong. There was only one way to deal with the prisoners of war of the Eighth Route Army, and that was to send them directly to the coal mines or "Manchukuo" to work as coolies until all these prisoners of war were exhausted to death. But for the army that has been captured by the national axe, as long as the devil is willing, he can turn these people into puppet troops at any time. Although some of them would rather die than be Han Annihilation, after all, this is only a small part, and the vast majority of them still want to live. Compared with some of the hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war who were captured by the national political axe, acting as a devil's dog leg is also a way to survive. Therefore, the Yue army in Shandong is far less afraid of Han Yunhua than the Yue army in Beiping, Shanxi, and Hebei, of course, this definitely does not include Lieutenant General Ando Toshiyoshi, the commander of the Fifth Division of the Yue Army.

The contempt of the Eighth Route Army gave Han Yunhua a chance, Han Yunhua's surname was extremely decisive, so when he realized that the army was focusing on the Huyan family, Han Yunhua immediately ordered the troops to attack frequently, fought several victories in a row, robbed the army of two heavy escorted military columns, and captured a large number of weapons and equipment. Han Yunhua was not afraid that the army would trouble him now, in Han Yunhua's opinion, it was only a matter of time before the army sent troops westward, and it would not be his Han Yunhua's surname to take this opportunity not to give the little devil a beating.

After these two military trains were robbed, the army suddenly realized that there was still a small team of Chinese [***] on the side. At this time, a force that had been entrenched in Shandong for a long time suddenly jumped out, allowing Han Yunhua to see a new opportunity for the development of the army.

Here's the thing, since Dong'e County was broken by Jiang Yunshan, the devils who were originally subordinate to the Liaocheng Garrison Headquarters suddenly panicked, and Major General Changshui immediately sent an infantry brigade to the rescue. At that time, Jiang Yunshan took the initiative to withdraw from Dong'e County because the army had just been expanded and its combat effectiveness was at its lowest. However, Yue Jun did not think that Jiang Yunshan's department was actively evacuating, but thought that Jiang Yunshan's department was afraid and fled. Therefore, soon after Jiang Yunshan's department withdrew, the army was stationed in Dong'e County as soon as possible, and also sent a search force to search for Jiang Yunshan's department's whereabouts.

Who is Jiang Yunshan, and how can he let these devils who are not familiar with the terrain search for it. After searching for a few days and finding nothing, the army sent some puppet soldiers and even some pro-businessmen to the areas where Jiang Yunshan was not active to explore the activities of Jiang Yunshan's department. Jiang Yunshan is a very alert person, and after sensing that something was wrong, he immediately sent troops to arrest more than a dozen guys, and the final result of the interrogation was that an organization called the "Xinmin Society" was exposed.

Jiang Yunshan didn't dare to slack off, and immediately reported the situation to Han Yunhua. After receiving the telegram from Jiang Yunshan, Han Yunhua was also shocked, he was no stranger to this Xinmin Association. The Xinmin Association is a political organization established and indulged by the puppet regime in North China during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and it is an important part of the army's aggression against China.

The Chinese army invaded China by military force, and it faced two major problems: first, how to deal with the armed resistance of the Chinese people, and second, how to maintain its rule over the occupied areas. With a limited number of troops, it is impossible for the army alone to solve these problems, especially the problem of domination over the occupied areas. Of course, this is also the most common problem encountered by the Yue army after the invasion of China, and this is not a disease in Shandong, but one of the most headaches encountered by the entire army that invaded China. In the occupied areas, the army encountered not only the armed resistance of the Chinese people, but also the ideological resistance of the Chinese people, which could not be solved by guns and artillery. As a result, the so-called pro-merchant groups raised the issue of propaganda, education, and pacification of the ideology of the people in the occupied areas. Originally, it was said that the Xuanfu class was used to undertake this work. The Xuanfu Class is a military organization subordinate to the military-level secret service department of the Chinese army to carry out propaganda and pacification tasks, and it is an organization that specializes in the invasion of ideological enslavement culture. After the Chinese army occupied a place, a kind of person in military uniform came forward to propagate "China to carry out" and "jointly defend against communism" by means of speeches, singing, and plays, distributing leaflets, running newspapers, and other relatively mild but extremely evil means, so as to justify the surname of the Japanese invasion of China and help organize local maintenance associations and other pseudo-organizations. However, this kind of "propaganda pacification" always gives the Chinese people a "sense of humiliation" of being invaded by foreign races, and it is emotionally incompatible. Therefore, the Yue army changed its ruling measures and methods and pursued the policy of "using China to contain China"; on the one hand, it vigorously supported and organized the Han annihilation regime, and on the other hand, it imitated the method of the puppet Manchu Concord to establish a propaganda organization mainly composed of Han annihilation and easy to accept by the Chinese. Against this background, on December 24, 1937, under the direction of Seiichi Kita, the head of the special service of the North China Front Army, the so-called "people's organization" -- the Xinmin Association -- was established.

In terms of organizational system, it is integrated with the puppet regime in North China, with the chairman as the supreme leader, the appointment of the person as an adviser, and the Central Guidance Department as the specific organization and guidance body for regular affairs. For local institutions, the province has a guidance department, which is generally concurrently the minister by the puppet governor, and the provincial office and the county and city guidance department are set up below the provincial level. It was combined with the puppet regime to form a vast network from the puppet regime in North China to the provinces, counties, and villages, and mainly depended on the military to organize and carry out activities.
