Section VII Lightning XII
"At forty-one, Du Guangting is amazing!" When Zhuang Jihua waved his fist and handed the telegram to Yu Ji, he clasped his hands and announced loudly: "In the battle of Tianjin, 58,000 Japanese troops were annihilated, hundreds of artillery pieces of various kinds were captured and thousands of machine guns were captured, and 30 tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed, while our army suffered 27,000 casualties, only 12,000 people were killed, and the battle loss ratio was close to 2 to 1. ”
Zhuang Jihua was so excited, his face was full of redness, he pressed Du Yuming for three days, it turned out that he just wanted to put pressure on him, but he didn't expect Du Yuming to hand over a mystery that surprised him. \\。 Qb⑸.cOM\\
"This shows that our army has surpassed the Japanese army in terms of organization, tactical ability, and firepower. After the Japanese army endured the huge losses in the Battle of Northern Hubei, the Battle of Xuzhou, and the Battle of Shandong, it was unable to make up for the strictly trained soldiers and junior officers who were proficient in tactics, and thus were comprehensively surpassed by our army. ”
Yu Jishi put the telegram on the table, and couldn't help but be happy, he didn't expect that Tianjin would be taken in such a short time, and the battle loss ratio was still so high, in the case of attacking the fortification, the casualties of the first and second armies were higher than ours.
"Yes, yes, I really didn't expect that there would be 20,000 prisoners, even Yokoyama Isamu and Miura became prisoners, and it seems that the will of the Japanese army is not as good as fighting." Yu Jishi struck each other with both hands, and his heart was full of emotion.
Seven years ago, China entered this national war with trepidation, from Lugou Bridge to Songhu, to Wuhan and Changsha, and then to Tonggu Lashio, countless Chinese soldiers fought against the iron and fire of the Japanese with their flesh and blood: after seven years of war, China has gone through all kinds of hardships, and today it finally sees the dawn of victory rising from the horizon.
"The shock of this victory to the Gangcun in Beiping City is probably greater, more than 50,000 people in Tianjin, forty-one hours, not even two days, less than 40,000 in Beiping, more empty than Tianjin, how long can you hold "Thirty hours, the sky! Zhuang Jihua pointed upwards with his left hand, and the cigarette between his fingers lost a piece of ash.
"I'm afraid it can't, Tianjin can move nearly 10,000 artillery pieces to fight Beiping, willing?" Yu Jishi smiled and took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table and lit it.
"Yes, I'm afraid Tianjin will not be destroyed this time" We are going to have to go through the difficulties again. The smile on Zhuang Jihua's face was swept away, replaced by a sad face, he could fully imagine what the destruction of Tianjin City would be like in the impact of nearly 10,000 artillery pieces, and the situation in North China was already very difficult.
"Wu Ziniu, did the Tang style obey Zhang Tingge?" Zhuang Jihua turned his head and shouted outside the door.
Wu Ziniu pushed the door in: "Not yet, Commander, you can rest assured, isn't there still Commander Du in Tianjin?" Commander Du will take precautions. ”
"Peace of mind? I just can't let go of my heart" Zhuang Jihua smiled bitterly: "I can't wait to go to Tianjin now and have a look." ”
When Zhuang Jihua handed over the matter of negotiation to Yu Ji, he personally presided over the reorganization of the Northeast Army, and the reorganization of the Northeast Army was very strong: "Except for the Third Cavalry Division of the Second Cavalry Army, including the 14th Provisional Division, all of them were broken up and reorganized as a company, and officers above the battalion level were gathered together for reorganization and training, and then reassigned."
The 3rd Cavalry Division was transferred to the 49th Group Army, and Guo Xunqi was responsible for the reorganization, and the 49th Group Army incorporated some puppet cavalry and Manchukuo cavalry divisions, which would be merged and reorganized with the 3rd Cavalry Division, and then assigned to the 49th Group Army's combat sequence.
According to Zhuang Jihua's intentions, it was the expeditionary force to reorganize the Northeast Army, but Dai Anlan and Li Tianxia both suggested to Zhuang Jihua that the equipment and tactical training of the expeditionary force were completely American, and the reorganization with the Northeast Army would inevitably weaken the combat effectiveness.
Zhuang Jihua agreed with their suggestion and decided to reorganize the Second Army, the 50th Group Army, and the 51st Group Army, which had just finished the Tianjin operation.
"Call Du Yuming, leave the Green Fourth Army in charge of Tianjin's city defense, and the Second Army, the 50th Group Army, and the 51st Group Army immediately go to Tongzhou for reorganization.
The troops stationed in the city are forbidden to disturb the people, forcibly occupy people's houses, and prohibit molesting women, and must strictly observe discipline, and any violation of military discipline must be severely punished: second, immediately count the refugees in Tianjin, immediately organize the National Salvation Association, organize forces to assess the damage in the city, and make preparations for reconstruction: Third, Tianjin is an industrial and commercial city, and it is also a city where the underworld is rampant, and Tianjin immediately implements military control, which is carried out by General Tang Shizun, the commander of the garrison, and Zhang Tingge, the mayor of Tianjin. We must resolutely crack down on any act that disrupts public order.
Fourth, there are many factories in Tianjin, and these factories should be cared for as needed, and any behavior that destroys factory equipment must be severely punished.
Fifth, immediately notify the Logistics Department and request that an additional 100 million kilograms of grain be transferred to help the Tianjin Municipality in Beiping. ”
Zhuang Jihua gave five orders in one breath, and Gong Xiuhua quickly prepared the telegram and handed it to him for signing, and then sent it to Du Yuming. After settling Tianjin, not only did they liberate three or four hundred thousand troops, but also liberated the two generals Du Yuming and Song Xilian, and the heavy troops of the North China Theater were assembled in front of Shanhaiguan, but the front line lacked a person who could coordinate the whole army, and now there was a choice.
"Telegram to the Chongqing General Counsel Department, Chairman of the Committee, suggesting that Du Yuming be removed from the post of commander of the 50th Group Army, and that Situ Fei, commander of the 77th Army, take over, and that the Shanhaiguan Cluster Command be established to command the eastern Hebei army in a unified manner, and that Du Yuming assume the commander-in-chief."
Gong Xiuhua wondered slightly, after she drafted the telegram, she handed it over to Zhuang Jihua with many doubts, she knew Zhuang Jihua's purpose very well, but it was too fast to transfer Du Yuming out now, but Yu Jishi was there, and she didn't want to ask, so she had to draft the telegram according to Zhuang Jihua's intentions, but she kept an eye on it and did not send it to the telecommunications office immediately.
"Commander, don't send someone to deliver a letter, it's Okamura Ningji who sent someone." Wu Ziniu came in and said.
Zhuang Jihua looked at him: "What about people? ”
"Wait outside, don't you let him in."
"Let him in."
Wu Ziniu opened the door, and a military manager came in from outside, and the military manager took out a letter from his briefcase and handed it to Zhuang Jihua with both hands: "Tell the commander, around four o'clock this afternoon" Okamura Ningji sent a military envoy to deliver this letter, asking us to forward it to you, and then went back. ”
Zhuang Jihua stretched out his hand to take it, tore open the seal, and took out the letter, Okamura Ningji's letter was not long, and he proposed in the letter that the next negotiations would be conducted directly by the two of them, "He can go to Zhuang Jihua's headquarters to negotiate, and he will open a wireless band to facilitate contact."
Zhuang Jihua smiled after reading it and threw it on the table: ...... Well, write back to him, I agree, the time will be at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and the address will be at the front headquarters of the 45th Army" This time, I want to see what other dreams this guy Okamura wants to have.
"Cultural Revolution, take over this, what should I do?" Yu Jishi shook his head a little, "dissatisfied", he already felt Zhuang Jihua's vigilance against him, the Shanhaiguan front lacked a unified overall high-level command, originally he was the deputy commander of the theater was the best candidate, but Zhuang Jihua did not send it to him, on the contrary, he asked him to preside over the negotiations with Okamura Ningji, and now Du Yuming just came out of his hands and entrusted this important task to his shoulders, Yu Jishi knew that as soon as Zhuang Jihua's telegram arrived in Chongqing, Chiang Kai-shek would definitely approve it, and Du Yuming was also the first phase of Whampoa, and Chiang Kai-shek also believed him.
"Liangzhen, go to the outside of the Saiwai, the 49th Group Army and the 23rd Group Army are outside the Saiwai" to inspect the work, especially the reorganization work, in addition, to see if they have any difficulties" Zhuang Jihua: "Liangzhen, I have a good relationship with the chairman of the committee, after the recovery of Beiping, the Northeast Theater will be established, and the North China Theater will be handed over to Tang Enbo, and the newly established Northeast Theater will still be the commander of the Northeast Theater, and He Guangting will be the deputy commander. ”
Yu Jishi smiled bitterly, when will Zhuang Jihua sit back and relax, thinking of Chiang Kai-shek's words when he was in Huangshan, his heart couldn't help but sink, and he sighed behind his back, forget it, don't care about it, the principal ,......, alas,............ Menzhuang Jihua smiled reluctantly, he didn't care what Yu Jishi thought in his heart, as long as everyone was okay with their faces, try not to tear their faces.
"After arriving outside the Saiwai, I have to visit the local prince of Meng Gu to establish a good relationship, I hear, there is a serious drought there this year, go and see, if it is really difficult, you can allocate some military rations for relief." Zhuang Jihua's words were a little lower, containing a lot of helplessness.
Grain, and grain, the news of the disaster in the Neimen G grassland has already come, but Zhuang Jihua has no food in his hands, and the gate G is relatively far away, and the transportation is also difficult, no, there is no transportation capacity at all, trucks have to transport ammunition in addition to food, and the supplies of the 49th Group Army and the 23rd Group Army rely on those hundreds of trucks.
"Okay, then I'll go get ready, and I'll leave tomorrow." Yu Jishi doesn't matter, he is now caught in the middle, on one side is a friend, and on the other hand is the principal who trusts him, which makes him in a dilemma, it is good to go outside, avoid these first, Zhuang Jihua will do whatever he wants, and what will happen in the future.
"Commander, Commander Tang and Mayor Zhang have arrived. Wu Ziniu came in and said.
"Invite them in." Zhuang Jihua first admonished, and then turned his head to Yu Jishi: "Okay, transfer a company from the guard regiment and take care of it along the way." ”
Yu Jishi nodded his head, nothing, turned around and left, and when he got to the door, the door opened, and the chubby Tang-style Zun and the thin Zhang Tingge came in. When Tang Shizun looked up at Yu Ji, he immediately smiled.
, "Deputy Commander Yu." ”
"Commander Tang, Mayor Zhang, Commander Zhuang have been waiting for a long time, let's go." Yu Jishi returned the salute with a smile, and then pushed the door and went out.
"Come here." Zhuang Jihua ignored their etiquette, beckoned them over, and brought them a stool with his own hands, Tang Shizun and Zhang Tingge hurriedly came over, and Zhang Tingge brought a chair for himself.
"The recovery of Tianjin is a great event, but Tianjin is probably almost destroyed, Brother Zijin, I have never been to Tianjin, Brother Zhiqing has been in Tianjin, but I am afraid that I will not be able to recognize Tianjin, nearly 10,000 cannons, hundreds of tanks, fighting for each room, Tianjin may have been destroyed." Zhuang Jihua sighed.
Tang Shizun Zhang Tinger was first happy and then stunned when he heard this, the news of the restoration of Tianjin has not been officially announced to the public, Zhang Tingge and Tang Shizun did not know, and the two of them knew that Tianjin had been recovered.
"So fast! I thought it would be a few more days! Tang Shizun slapped his thigh and shouted, "Commander Zhuang, this Du Guangting is okay, I didn't embarrass our southwest development team!" ”
Tang Shizun saw himself as a member of the Southwest Development Team, and Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but laugh in his heart. After Tang Shi complied, he immediately remembered what Zhuang Jihua said just now, Tianjin was completely destroyed, and his mood immediately became worried.
Zhuang Jihua continued: "Yes, with nearly 10,000 cannons, Tianjin may be completely destroyed, so our task is very heavy, first of all, we must restore Tianjin's industrial production, let the factories and mines start as soon as possible, so that workers have a place to earn money to support their families, and at the same time solve part of the military needs."
Among these factory owners, most of them cooperated with the Japanese during the occupation, but this depends on the situation, and I believe that most of them were forced to be helpless, and they had to be carefully distinguished, and the Qing Jiān Office of the War Zone would send special personnel to Tianjin to investigate the Han Jiān. ”
Zhuang Jihua still didn't dare to hand over the inventory to them, Zhang Tingge didn't know about him, but Tang Shizun knew that this prince was more fond of money, and if he handed it over to him, he had to take the opportunity to scrape some oil.
"In addition to resuming production, I estimate that most of the buildings in Tianjin have been destroyed by wells, and it is very difficult to rebuild the homeland, and the country is now financially difficult, and it is difficult to come up with a lot of money to rebuild Tianjin.
Zhang Tingge's face changed as soon as he heard this, almost the entire city of Tianjin was destroyed, and it would cost a lot of money to rebuild a new Tianjin, where do millions of people live in Tianjin, no wonder Zhang Boling promised to recommend Chiang Kai-shek in a bunch of ways.
"Commander Zhuang, I lived in Tianjin for more than ten years before the war, and I know Tianjin very well, Tianjin has a population of more than one million, and if the central government does not provide funds, we will not be able to do this work on our own. ”
"Mayor Zhang, it's not that there is no money at all, I transferred 1 million legal currency from the Southwest Development Team, and I have already telegraphed to Chiang Ching-kuo and asked him to organize a group of industrial and commercial people to visit Tianjin as soon as possible. It is incapable of relying entirely on the government to rebuild Tianjin, and the government can only play a guiding role in leading the people to rebuild their homes by themselves. ”
Zhang Tingge shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly: "Commander Zhuang, there are many high-rise buildings in Tianjin, even if they are demolished, it will cost a lot of money, Commander Zhuang, one million is not enough, absolutely not enough." ”
Zhuang Jihua also shook his head: "I know it's not enough, but there is no more, there is no more money."
Tang Shizun roughly understood in his heart that the generals of the Sichuan Army had long known the source of the money for the development of the southwest, and knew that Zhuang Jihua had paid for the million out of his own pocket, and he was also greatly admired.
He rolled his eyes and said, "Commander Zhuang, I think so" Tang Shizun suddenly thought of Zhuang Jihua's consistent behavior, so he changed his words: "After we arrive in Tianjin, let's take a look first, and then make plans." ”
, he glanced at Zhang Tingge, Zhang Tingge looked at him in amazement, not knowing what he meant
