The third part of the Bloody War of Resistance, Chapter 9, Rushing, Section 1, Bow Pull

Gong Xiuhua frowned slightly, but she didn't open her mouth to stop it, she didn't want Zhuang Jihua to go to Wuhan and face so much pressure, but there was no way to stop it, Zhuang Jihua's current status determined that he had to face so much pressure. //。 ǒm/

"In Tian, the garrison was mobilized to help the people rebuild after the war, did the troops move?" Zhuang Jihua turned his gaze to Li Zhilong. Li Zhilong returned to Laohekou a few days ago, and as soon as he returned, Zhuang Jihua gave him a task to mobilize troops to assist the local people in post-war reconstruction.

In the Northern Hubei Campaign, the battlefield was extensive, from Yicheng by the Han River to Wuhan by the Yangtze River, from Zhongxiang Jingshan in Hubei to Xinyang Queshan in Henan, the entire battlefield was nearly 1,000 kilometers long from north to south, and hundreds of kilometers wide from east to west; Yicheng, Jingshan, Anlu, and Xinyang were almost all destroyed, more than 100,000 houses were destroyed by the war, and hundreds of thousands of people were displaced; Moreover, during the spring sowing period of the campaign, a large number of front teams were organized in the theater, which delayed the spring sowing to a certain extent, and it was necessary to rush to sow seeds.

"This is the order we drafted," Li Zhilong said and handed over a document: "Tomorrow, the director of the political department above the division level will go to the headquarters for a meeting to assign tasks. ”

Zhuang Jihua took it, listened and watched, the order was very detailed, Li Zhilong divided the territory for each army, designated the help area of each division, and also set a time limit, requiring that by mid-April, all the people in the designated area must build houses, complete spring sowing, and also take out part of the military rations to provide relief to the victims.

"It's not enough just to have a political department, the meeting was postponed by two days, and the commanders above the division level must attend." Zhuang Jihua picked up the pen and added a clause to the order: "The meeting is presided over by Chief of Staff Xu." ”

"Brother Yan Mou, I'll leave this matter to you." Zhuang Jihua turned his head and said to Xu Zuyi.

Xu Zuyi nodded in agreement: "Okay." Just like in Zaoyang. ”

"Brother Yanmou, you must make it clear to them at the meeting, post-war reconstruction is as important as destroying the enemy, we are the best people, why is it to protect the family and defend the country, it is to let the people live a good life, we can't say that we are soldiers, we just have to take guns, and we must keep the people in mind anytime and anywhere. Brother Yan Mou, this time you can't reconcile yin and yang, you must be tough, and the troops who fail to complete the task will be punished by the chief officer and the director of the political department, and the most serious can be removed immediately. The war zone should organize an inspection team, an inspection team, Yunfei, you will take the lead in forming a patrol team, and the members will be drawn from my guards and guard regiments, bring a radio station, and report to me at any time. ”

This deployment, Xu Zuyi and Gong Xiuhua are very clear, Zhuang Jihua did this after the Zaoyang War, but this time Zhuang Jihua paid more attention to it, not only asked the war zone to come forward, but also sent his most trusted Song Yunfei.

However, Zhuang Jihua said so much, and also hinted that he would rush to Wuhan soon.

Zhuang Jihua closed his eyes slightly, then opened his eyes and looked at Xu Zuyi: "Zou Pingfan and all the puppet army troops will immediately move to Xiaogan." The 101st Army withdrew from Hankow, stationed in Sanji, and handed over Hankou to the Ninth Theater; The 102nd Army was stationed in Yunmeng; The 36th Group Army was stationed at Huangpo, the 31st Army was stationed at Xinyang and Wusheng Pass, and the Seventh Army was stationed at the eastern foot of Dabie Mountain. ”

A glimmer of light slipped through Xu Zuyi's mind, this deployment, the 101st Army and the 102nd Army, the 36th Group Army and the 77th Army faintly surrounded Xiaogan, Zhuang Jihua This is to solve the puppet army anyway.

During the Northern Hubei Campaign, only the puppet 13th Army in Wuhan resisted, and the others almost surrendered to the wind, or they rebelled anyway, and after the war, more than 40,000 people in the entire puppet army were captured and surrendered or anyway.

"For the puppet army anyway, the officers above the company level must be re-trained in the military academy, and then reassigned to work, Brother Yan Mou, you and the commander draw up a reorganization plan, the army cannot be in the hands of traitors." Zhuang Jihua did not hide his thoughts.

"Xiaoshan, your intelligence department must cooperate with the military commanders, closely monitor these anyway troops, and wait for the war zone to be reorganized."

Wang Xiaoshan replied: "Commander, how to deal with Sun Xiaochuan and Ji Feixiang?" ”

Zhuang Jihua frowned slightly, his idea was to be executed directly, but after thinking about it, he asked again: "Do you have any ideas?" ”

"Yes." Wang Xiaoshan nodded and admitted: "After the Wuhan War, the Japanese army is bound to investigate the cause of the failure, we have controlled Ji Feixiang for four years, and in these four years, Ji Feixiang has contacts with the Japanese spy networks in Chongqing, Yunnan, and Sichuan, if they find that Ji Feixiang has been exposed, they will inevitably adjust these spy networks, which is not conducive to our future work." I suggest that Sun Xiaochuan be used to arrange for Sun Xiaochuan to appear in public, so as to create an illusion to the devil that Sun Xiaochuan betrayed Ji Feixiang, so that the Japanese army will not adjust their spy network. ”

Zhuang Jihua thought about it and felt that this method was good, but before he could speak, Wang Xiaoshan added: "That reporter, Ye Sufei is here again." ”

"Does Sun Xiaochuan know her?" Zhuang Jihua immediately asked.

"I don't know. Sun Xiaochuan confessed that he knew that someone would cooperate with him, but who would cooperate with him, the Japanese would notify him by telegram at that time. In other people's confessions, there is no Ye Sufei, and there are more secrets in this woman. ”

It was through Ye Sufei that Wang Xiaoshan thought that if Sun Xiaochuan and Ji Feixiang were shot like this, it would inevitably alarm the Japanese spy network in Sichuan, Yunnan and other places, and Ye Sufei was sent, indicating that the Japanese still did not know the real reason for this intelligence failure.

"Okay, just do as you say, but be careful when you appear in public, and you must not let Sun Xiaochuan take advantage of the chaos." Zhuang Jihua accepted Wang Xiaoshan's suggestion.

"Yes, I'll pay attention." Wang Xiaoshan replied solemnly.

"Chief of Staff Xu, inform the Air Force, prepare a plane, and the commander is going to Wuhan." Gong Xiuhua saw that everything was almost arranged, so he began to drive people out.

Xu Zuyi, Li Zhilong, and Wang Xiaoshan stood up and prepared to leave, but Zhuang Jihua stopped them again: "In addition, there is another major event, ordering all armies to start a post-war summary, and the commanders at all levels must return to the battlefield, in addition, there are meritorious contributions and supplements.... ”

"Don't worry, I'll arrange it." Xu Zuyi had a helpless expression: "Cultural Revolution, you rest in peace, we say goodbye." ”

After finishing speaking, Xu Zuyi, Li Zhilong and Wang Xiaoshan got up to say goodbye, Song Yunfei also left with them, Wu Ziniu was about to go out and guard the door as usual, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Lin Wei coming in from outside the courtyard.

"Lin Wei is here." Wu Ziniu closed the door, turned around and returned to the bedside, Gong Xiuhua was a little displeased, Zhuang Jihua said lightly: "He should come too, Xiuhua, I have nothing, just rest." ”

Lin Wei accompanied Wilkie in the countryside near Laohekou in the later part of the battle, and later went to Suixian, and only returned to Laohekou last night. On the issue of Li Anding, Zhuang Jihua never gave in, and Chongqing did not call again.

"Brother Weiwen, I'm back so soon, so is Wilkie not satisfied?" There were only two people left in the room, and Zhuang Jihua pretended to be a relaxed joke.

"Whatever, but, the Cultural Revolution, the victory in northern Hubei is too timely," Lin Wei said with a smile, and then told Zhuang Jihua in detail that Roosevelt had promised to transfer Stilwell, appoint Weidemeyer as chief of staff, and launch an attack on Burma at the right time to control Burma.

"During the Cultural Revolution, the chairman of the committee transferred Li Anding back because he knew Myanmar and could get in touch with the Burmese independence organization, so our progress would be faster."

Only then did Zhuang Jihua understand why Chongqing repeatedly called and asked Li Anding to go to Chongqing. knows that he knows, but Zhuang Jihua is still a little reluctant.

"Wei Wen, you don't know, I put the burden of the reorganization of the 33rd Group Army on An Ding, although An Ding is not a military commander, but the reorganization of the 33rd Group Army is a political reorganization, I look left and right to see that only An Ding is suitable, the chairman wants to transfer him, who will replace him?"

"Li Zhilong is completely okay," Lin Wei said with a smile, Zhuang Jihua was as he expected, once he understood the purpose of transferring back Li Anding, he would definitely release him: "The Cultural Revolution, controlling Burma is of great significance to us, and our difficulties in materials will be greatly alleviated." ”

Zhuang Jihua nodded: "I know this, Brother Weiwen, what about after the recovery of Myanmar?" What if Roosevelt asked us to go on the offensive? ”

"No, once the Burma incident starts, the British will not let us continue to attack Malaysia." Lin Wei didn't care, as if everything was under control.

Zhuang Jihua's eyes lit up, and then nodded again and again, Lin Wei said well, the British have always been wary of China, when Southeast Asia was defeated, the British did not let the expeditionary force enter Burma, and now they are naturally more reluctant to let China get involved in Southeast Asia, especially in the case of China's support for the independent government of Myanmar, once China enters Malaysia and Singapore, and China supports the governments of Malaysia and Singapore, then the entire Southeast Asia will no longer belong to the British.

"Only Tian can take over Anding, but Zai Tian can't spare his hands at this stage, so let's do it, a month later, Zai Tian may withdraw and take over his work."

Seeing that Zhuang Jihua finally relented, Lin Wei was very happy, and Zhuang Jihua added: "Let Liangzhen start this work and do some basic work." ”

"Well, the foundation laid before the settlement was very good, and the chairman asked Dai Li to send someone to investigate, and the Deqin Party has a good impression of us." Lin Wei stood up as she spoke, walked to the window, opened the window, and let the air flow.

"Cultural Revolution, Wilkie hopes to talk to you again."

"Let's talk about it in Wuhan," Zhuang Jihua didn't let Lin Wei finish: "Wilkie will definitely return to Wuhan with us, and we'll talk about it again when we get to Wuhan." Speaking of this, he paused before saying, "Brother Weiwen, why did this Wilkie come to the Fifth War Zone?" ”

"Who knows?" Lin Wei shrugged his shoulders and walked back: "You are an American expert, you can't see it, how do I know, I still want to ask you?" ”

Lin Wei was in a very good mood, the victory in northern Hubei not only dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese army, but more importantly, it improved the prestige of the Nationalist Government at home and abroad.

"Cultural Revolution, next, how do you think we should fight?" Lin Wei asked.

"I haven't thought about this yet," Zhuang Jihua pondered, but he thought about it, if he could win Lin Wei's support, it might be easier in the future, so he paused for two minutes to think about it before he continued: "After the Northern Hubei Campaign, the Japanese army is no longer able to launch a large-scale offensive, and our army will enter the stage of a full-scale counteroffensive, so first of all, the Jiangnan Theater should be adjusted, the Ninth Theater, and the Fourth Theater should be canceled, merged with the Third Theater, and the Jiangnan operation should be commanded in a unified manner; In Jiangbei, the 15th Theater should be unified, and the 2nd Theater should be strengthened, so it is recommended that an additional group army be transferred to Zhongtiao Mountain to be ready to counterattack Jinnan at any time, and this group army should preferably be the Central Army.

In addition, the whole army should rest for three to four months, which is not only to replenish personnel, but more importantly, to reorganize the troops and accumulate supplies. After three months, the decision will be made depending on the situation, but I tend to start with northern Myanmar and let Liangzhen take Yangon in one fell swoop and open up the China-Myanmar highway. Then the Jiangnan Theater began to move, but it was only a feint. The real offensive will be in the Fifth Theater, and our army will first sweep Henan and will sweep away the northern threat in the Fifth Theater.

In this way, the actions of the north and south lines will inevitably attract the attention of the Japanese army to these two lines, but the real direction of our army's offensive is to attack Xuzhou. The main force of our army crossed the Dabie Mountain, attacked Xuzhou, cut off the Jinpu Road in one fell swoop, and captured Xuzhou, another advantage of this route is that it can get the cooperation of the Sulu theater. ”

Lin Wei exhaled softly, Zhuang Jihua's movements were always unexpected, according to his judgment, Zhuang Jihua either went east along the river or north to Hebei, but he didn't expect to take such a road.

Zhuang Jihua didn't know if Lin Wei was ordered to inquire or if he was curious, but Lin Wei had a good relationship with him, and secretly helped him several times, so he was more frank.

Just when Lin Wei and Zhuang Jihua were talking about Wilkie, Wilkie was also spreading with Brian in the back garden, and the topic of the two was also Zhuang Jihua.

"I don't really understand why the president values General Zhuang so much, although he is an excellent general, but after all, he is only a theater commander, and his influence on the central government's decision-making is very small." Brian was puzzled.

"General Blaine, there are many things you don't know, including General Stilwell," Wilkie said thoughtfully: "I must have come to the Fifth War Zone for a purpose, and there are some differences between General Stilwell and Ambassador Gauss's reports on the situation in China, and this difference is very big, it can be said that there is a world of difference." Secretary Hull believed in Gauss, and General Marshall believed in General Stilwell. But their judgment of the Nationalist Government is relatively unanimous, believing that it is only a **** government, and General Chiang Kai-shek has hindered China's development to some extent. ”

Brian was startled and stopped suddenly, although Wilkie did not say it explicitly, but the implication was very obvious, Washington intended to take Chiang Kai-shek, but is this feasible? What does this have to do with coming to the Fifth War Zone to see Zhuang Jihua?

Wilkie didn't say anything more, and when it came to this, it was already a lot, and Brian's position was the most he could know.

"Sir, do we still want to talk to General Zhuang?" Brian waited for a while, and when he saw that Wilkie didn't continue, he understood, so he stopped asking and provoked another topic.

Wilkie pondered for a moment, then shook his head, and then Thomas walked through the moon gate and walked quickly to them: "Good news, General Zhuang is going to Wuhan tomorrow, and he invites us to go with him." ”

The monthly pass is at the end of the month, so let's vote for the guaranteed monthly pass
