Chapter 993 The Question of Restoring Base Areas
After Zeng Zhongsheng's funeral, Liu Yimin immediately convened a liaison meeting of the Shandong Bureau, the Shandong Military Region, and the Shandong Anti-Japanese Democratic Senate in Dadian to sum up the anti-sweeping operation and study how to solve the problems of production and life difficulties in various base areas.
This time, the Japanese army swept dàng with heavy troops, and compared with the previous two times, the time was long and the damage was greater. In particular, the Japanese Ninth Division, the 114th Division, the 29th Division, and the puppet Manchurian Tǐng marched to sweep the southeast Ludong base area, the Lunan base area, and the Luzhong mountain base area. Fortunately, thanks to the good construction of the tunnel, and the cover of the Yiméng Mountain barrier and the Eighth Route Army, the little devils were unable to massacre the people on a large scale.
After the Japanese army retreated, the Lunan Branch, the Lunan Branch, and the Luzhong Administration hurriedly reported the losses, and now the statistical results have not come out completely, and the known losses have already made the leaders attending the meeting frown. Excluding other base areas, just the base areas in southern Lunan, southeast Lu, and central Luzhong were burned down by the little devils, 16 market towns, 374 large and small villages, and more than 12,400 houses and nearly 40,000 rooms. Now in winter, these families are homeless, so they have to build temporary thatched huts and use tunnels to survive.
The food problem is not big, because the walls are strictly clear, and the little devils can rarely find tunnels and food. But large livestock and poultry were killed and robbed by the Japanese puppet army. In the early spring of next year, many families in the base area will not have the energy to accumulate farmland.
Guo Zihua, director of the Shandong Bureau and political commissar of the party committee of the southeast Lu district and the southeast Lu detachment, who attended the meeting and made a report, wept silently in the report, saying that the villagers in the southeast Lu base area are going to suffer a big crime this winter, and it will be even more difficult in the spring of next year, and there are no cattle to farm and no kang to sleep, and if resolute measures are not taken, it will inevitably affect next year's summer harvest, and the consequences will be more serious.
Because of the long distance in Qinghe District and Jiaolai District, the leaders did not have time to rush back to attend Zeng Zhongsheng's funeral, and they could not report the situation in detail, but judging from the telegrams they took, the situation worsened in southeastern Lunan, Lunan, and Luzhong.
The relatively small losses were in the Jiaodong, Taixi, and Lunan Plains and the southwestern and Luxi regions, and the little devils dreamed that these areas would become their consolidated occupation areas, and they would do fewer bad things in the process of sweeping dàng, and from time to time they would use the Huairou policy to send Xuanfu classes to appease the common people, in an attempt to form a puppet regime and puppet local armed forces.
This is the situation on the civilian side.
The military situation is still grim, although on the whole, due to the successful mobilization of the devils by our army, successive victories in successive battles, the Japanese army's heavy army group was dragged back to the line of communication, forcing the Japanese army to stop its frantic sweep of the mountainous areas of central and southern Shandong, Qinghe, and Jiaolai, but the current intelligence shows that except for the six divisions of the Kwantung Army returning to the northeast, the Japanese army's heavy army group is still staying in the Jinan area and on the Jiaoji Road, and it may also carry out another frantic assault on our base area at any time. Moreover, this time, the Japanese army stationed its main forces in southern Hebei, western Luxi, Jiaodong, and southwestern Shandong, and the 110th Division marched into the border of Hebei and Shandong, and the Japanese army's sweep was still continuing, far from over.
The losses of the troops were also very serious, and the 5th Brigade, the New 5th Brigade, and the Southeastern Lunan Detachment, which had the heaviest combat missions and fought to the death against the Japanese army, as well as the newly established Lunan Garrison Brigade and Logistics Detachment, suffered extremely high battle losses, with nearly one-third of the main force losing nearly one-third, and the newly established Lunan Garrison Brigade and the independent regiments of various counties in southeastern Lunan all reduced their personnel by more than one-half, and the base areas were full of graves of martyrs.
During the Japanese army's sweep, some xxx local armed forces collapsed and surrendered to the enemy under the blows of the Japanese army, and although some xxx local armed forces did not openly surrender to the enemy, they cooperated with the Japanese army to fight the Eighth Route Army. Shen Congzhou, commander of the Third Security Division and commander of the Seventh Guerrilla Column in Lunan had only 2 to 3,000 men in total, but he dared to block the transfer of troops from our Lunan Garrison Brigade in the northern part of Fei County to complete the blocking task. Zhang Jingyue, the commander of the 3rd Security Division in the Qinghe area, was defeated by the Japanese army, Zhang Jingyue himself went into hiding, and some of his subordinates defected to the enemy as puppet soldiers, and most of them fled; Liu Jingliang, commander of the Fourth Security Division in the border area between Hebei and Shandong, mutinied, and the main force defected to the enemy, and Liu Jingliang's own whereabouts are unknown. A large number of local armed forces in the Jiaodong area surrendered to the enemy, and some of them took advantage of our main force to move into the mountains and underground to seize our base area. Zhang Tianzuo, commander of the second guerrilla column operating in Changle, Luzhong, took advantage of the retreat of the Japanese army to seize the base areas between Changle, Anqiu, and Linqu; Qin Qirong, commander of the third guerrilla column, led his troops to cooperate with the Japanese army in attacking Laiwu County, and now retreats with the Japanese army to the area between Boshan and Yidu.
This is only the situation in Shandong, the overall situation, the situation is not optimistic, Chiang Kai-shek brazenly launched xxx**, the army to kill to northern Sichuan, Hanzhong, Lunan, Shangluo, Tongguan, and I am afraid that it is a long-planned action, I left in Shaanxi only the original Red Fifth Army reorganized garrison division and the Red Ninth Army reorganized security division two main forces, the original 115th Division, 120th Division, 129th Division, independent division left in Shaanxi four brigades have already crossed the river to the east, to support the Shanxi battlefield operations. Chiang Kai-shek's blow happened to be fought at the weakest time of our army, and it became unknown whether Sichuanbei, Longnan, Hanzhong, Shangluo, and Weinan could be saved. You must know that at this time, our main force is fighting in the Shanxi and Shandong battlefields, and even if the central government is determined to send the main force from the Shanxi battlefield back to Shaanxi, northern Sichuan, Hanzhong, Longnan, and Shangluo are all so far away, and where can we arrive in a hurry, I am afraid that by the time the reinforcements arrive, the battlefield situation will have already been reversed.
Moreover, there is another problem, once our army in Shanxi sends the main force back to help, not only will Yan Xishan take advantage of the situation to launch, but the first army of the Japanese army will also fight back wildly, and the battle situation in Shanxi will also fall into passivity.
Of course, the focus of this meeting was to study the difficult problems in the Shandong base areas, and the overall situation was considered by the central authorities, and Liu Yimin did not need to worry about it, nor did he have to worry about it.
There were also pleasant surprises at the conference. One is that Wu Zheng reported that Ni Hua seized the opportunity of the Japanese warships swarming to Qingdao and successfully landed in Rizhao, where 1,000 American engineers and technicians and 120 retired US air force and navy personnel had safely entered the base area, and all the shipping materials had been transferred and could soon be transported to the logistics base. The other was also reported by Wu Zheng, because our army fought bloody battles and the logistics base was very thorough, the Japanese army did not enter the hinterland of the Taiyi central base area, let alone discover our logistics base. Now the Logistics Base is working in full force to prepare for the resumption of production.
In the report, many heroic deeds that can be sung and cried brought tears to the eyes of the leaders.
In the southern part of Ju County and the border area of Linshu County, there is a large village called Yuanziya, where mass organizations such as the "Agricultural Rescue Association," the "Children's League," the "Fù Rescue Association," and the "Youth Resistance Pioneer" have been established. In this Japanese sweep, it was attacked by a brigade of more than 1,000 people and a battalion of puppet troops of the 29th Division of the Japanese Army. The Japanese army used artillery and machine guns to fire frantically, and the village chief Lin Fanyi was not afraid of danger, and led more than 300 self-defense members and villagers in the village to fight to the death with earthen guns, earthen cannons, spears, kitchen knives, shovels and other utensils. The enemy's artillery shells continued to bombard, the outer walls of the village were knocked down, and the ammunition in the village was exhausted. The battle lasted for a whole day, killing and wounding 154 Japanese puppet soldiers and 147 self-defense soldiers and villagers. It was not until a company of the Ludongnan detachment rushed to reinforce in the evening with the county brigade and district squad that the enemy was forced to retreat.
There is a mute woman named Ming Deying in Mamuchi Village in the south of Yishui County, when the Japanese army swept dàng, she hid a soldier of the Eighth Route Army who was wounded and pursued by the devil behind the palace into her shack, and wittily deceived the pursuing Japanese puppet army, and used it together
ǔjuice saved the warrior.
After all aspects of the situation were reported, Luo Ronghuan sorted out the five major problems in general: first, it is necessary to build houses and resettle refugees as soon as possible; the second is to provide bereavement compensation for the martyrs; the third is to solve the problem of insufficient storage capacity in the base areas; Fourth, the base areas urgently need to resume commercial circulation; Fifth, the Lunan Army, the Luzhong Army, the Southeast Shandong Army, the Qinghe Garrison Brigade, and the Jinan Garrison Brigade need to be immediately rested and replenished; Sixth, it is necessary to solve the problem of armed attacks on our army and encroachment on our base areas in xxx localities.
After Luo Ronghuan finished combing, everyone expressed a lot of opinions on how to restore the order of production and life in the base areas of southeastern and central and southern Shandong.
Some of these problems need money, some need policies, and after the cadres expressed their opinions, they all looked at Liu Yimin, who was sitting on the main seat, waiting for him to express his position.
Liu Yimin summed up everyone's opinions, and finally made a decision: 1. The Fifth Brigade, the New Fifth Brigade, the Southeast Lu Detachment, the Lunan Garrison Brigade, and the Fourth Brigade of the Education Brigade should be returned to the hinterland of the base area for rest and replenishment, and the logistics detachment should rest and replenish on the spot. The logistics detachment was built into a real main force. The remaining defense was entrusted to the new 1st Brigade, the new 4th Brigade, and the new 8th Brigade. Grass-roots cadres who are lacking in the process of reorganizing the army are selected from the students of the first branch of the Kang University, and cadres can also be transferred from the first teaching brigade, cavalry brigade, artillery brigade, and air defense brigade. 2. The Qinghe Garrison Brigade and the Jinan Garrison Brigade rested and replenished on the spot, and the 3rd, 7th, and 8th Brigades evacuated from Qingdao withdrew to Qinghe, Jiaolai, and Jiaodong respectively to restore the base areas and cover the rest and replenishment of the garrison brigades and local armed forces.
2. The Formation and Training Headquarters led by Yuan Guoping and Xu Guangda, who remained in Qinghe District, returned to the base area in central and southern Shandong, and stationed in the anti-Japanese mountain camp together with the first branch of the Anti-Japanese University, and ordered that the team of recruits drawn up by Song Cheng, Song Zhuting, Jing Xiaocun, Huo Shilian, Zhang Linzhi, Zhang Weihan, Yao Zhongming, and Zhang Guangzhong, who had been transferred before the evacuation of Jinan, including the Hebei-Shandong Border Garrison Brigade, which had just been decided to be established, be driven back to the base area in central and southern Shandong in batches and handed over to the Formation and Training Headquarters for centralized training.
3. From now on, with the exception of the 1st Overseas Education Brigade, the Cavalry Brigade, and the Artillery Brigade, which serve as strategic reserves, all other units will be stationed in villages and towns that have been seriously damaged by companies and platoons, and will organize villagers to build houses while resting and recuperating. All districts and villages in the base area should set up more brick factories and burn bricks and tiles to meet the demand for building houses. All brick factories are not allowed to cut down trees and use coal as fuel. The cost of building houses and burning bricks and tiles can be covered by interest-free loans from the Bohai Bank, or they can be paid military rations after next year's summer and autumn harvests. The Shandong Anti-Japanese Democratic Government shall formulate specific measures and organize their implementation.
Fourth, the cavalry brigade, the baggage brigade, the first teaching brigade, and the recruit brigade returned war horses and pack horses were handed over to the Senate of the Shandong Anti-Japanese Democratic Government for handling to make up for the problem of insufficient agricultural production capacity. Livestock farms and breeding stations were set up to breed large livestock.
5. The martyrs who died in the anti-sweeping battle are to be compiled by governments at all levels and given preferential treatment.
6. The Japanese army has withdrawn from the base areas in the southeastern Shandong, southern and central mountainous areas, and has encouraged and protected commercial activities and resumed commercial circulation in the base areas.
7. In view of the fact that Chiang Kai-shek initiated XXX**, he ordered all units to carry out a thorough reorganization of the armed forces in XXX in Shandong, and all those who resisted the reorganization were disarmed. Those who are willing to leave Shandong and drive to the rear will be sent out of the country as a gift. The Han Jiān troops who surrendered to the Japanese invaders were concentrated on attacking and clearing.
These measures are all emergency measures to solve the current problems in Shandong's base areas. Like the issue of reorganizing xxx local armed forces, Liu Yimin has now thought very clearly, and he can't do it without a heavy fist. Before the crossing, Liu Yimin had read a lot of articles on the Internet, many of which said that during the Anti-Japanese War, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army took the initiative to provoke disputes with xxx and grab territory. Liu Yimin studied military history intensively, and naturally scoffed at this statement. But he always had an idea in his heart, that is, xxx is also an anti-Japanese armed force, and he will support those who can support it, and help those who can help it. The practice of the Anti-Japanese War for more than two years has taught him a vivid educational lesson, and the strength of the instructor is so strong, and the xxx local armed forces in Shandong are still constantly provoking. If it were left in history when the Eighth Route Army first entered Shandong, weren't these local armed forces still thinking about how to clean up the Eighth Route Army all day long? Even now, people like Qin Qirong, Zhang Tianzuo, Zhang Jingyue, and Shen Congzhou, as soon as the Japanese army came to sweep dàng, they took the opportunity to poison the Eighth Route Army, and their hands were stained with the blood of the Eighth Route Army. There's only one way to deal with these hungry wolf-like creatures, and that's to get rid of them. Without their constraints, Shandong's War of Resistance would be better fought!
Finally, Liu Yimin made a brief speech, saying that in this anti-sweeping operation, on the whole, our army's strategy and tactics were appropriate, and it won a stage victory, which was affirmed by the central authorities and the general headquarters. However, our army also suffered heavy losses, and the heroic martyrdom of Chief of Staff Zeng Zhongsheng overshadowed all the achievements we had achieved. The base areas also suffered heavy losses, especially the base areas of Luxi and Jiaodong, which we had consolidated, were occupied by the Japanese army, and our army was in a guerrilla state. But don't be discouraged, the Japanese army mobilized such a large number of troops to besiege the Shandong base area, but in the end it had to end in failure, they were even worse than us. After the main force of our army returned to the mountainous area of central and southern Lu, the Japanese defenders of Linyi immediately fled in a hurry. Because they're afraid of us. As long as we calm down and concentrate for a period of time to restore the base areas and restore the combat effectiveness of the troops, it will not be long before the Japanese heavy army group is transferred to other battlefields, and then the time has come for our Shandong military and civilian counteroffensive. At that time, we will be the first in the country to regain the fallen territory of a province.
