Chapter 460: No War in North China

The Yan'an side soon received a note from the National Affairs Fǔ, hoping that the two parties would hold a high-level meeting in the near future, and the venue could be determined by the ** side, but the time must be less than a week.

The vast majority of people think that Chiang Kai-shek is taking advantage of the fire to rob him, and there are even many people who think that the Party Central Committee should refuse to negotiate with the Kuomintang, because at this time, ** is very passive, and it is okay to negotiate peace, and the Nationalist Government must hold back the main force of the Japanese army in the south, otherwise the two sides have nothing to talk about now.

But after reading it, it was confirmed that it was indeed very sincere, and it seemed that it was ready to negotiate with our party on the distribution of interests, after all, Han Yunhua's actions in North China were too fast, and in the current situation, the collapse of Tada Jun's North China Front Army was inevitable, and after the North China Front Army was eliminated, it would leave a large piece of territory, and if the National Government was willing to be occupied by the Eighth Route Army like this, it would be called a ghost. And now, although the war in North China has achieved a certain victory, there is still a long way to go before complete victory, so the anti-Japanese national united front must still be maintained, so it was decided that the two sides would hold talks in Yan'an, and the time would be determined by the National People's Government.

After receiving Yan'an's reply, the Nationalist Government immediately sent a delegation headed by He Yingqin to Yan'an by plane. And after learning that the Ministry of Civil Affairs had actually sent Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin out, ** immediately asked Vice Chairman Zhou and General Zhu to form their own negotiation delegation.

At 10:40 on December 7, 1940, He Yingqin and his entourage arrived in Yan'an by special plane, and Vice Chairman Zhou and his entourage went to the airport to greet the delegation of the Nationalist Government.

He Yingqin knew that the situation was urgent, and his attitude, or **'s attitude, directly determined whether the more than 1 million Kuomintang troops on the Wuhan front line would fight or withdraw, so He Yingqin asked the ** side to immediately enter the state of talks.

The chairman and others were also aware of the situation facing the two sides now, and the attitude of the Nationalist Government was directly related to whether the more than 60,000 troops of the Japanese Eleventh Army would go north or continue to stay in Jiangnan, so the chairman and others were also very anxious, so they quickly agreed to the request of the Nationalist delegation, and the two sides immediately held the first round of talks after lunch.

Han Yunhua was overjoyed when he learned the news that the Kuomintang was going to hold talks with the Eighth Route Army, he knew very well what this meant, if he had been separated from the previous attitude of the Kuomintang and the Eighth Route Army, he would never have talked with **, and now since Chiang Kai-shek took the initiative to send his right-hand man He Yingqin to negotiate with the Party Central Committee, it can only show that the current strength has been recognized by Chiang Kai-shek, and the Kuomintang does not dare to make a complete break with **. This is undoubtedly good for the country and the nation, at least the southern Anhui incident that is about to occur in history should not happen again, after all, even He Yingqin is still in Yan'an, and Chiang Kai-shek will not ignore He Yingqin's life and death.

Han Yunhua himself had a game of chess in his heart, and he only talked about half of it with the chairman before, and Han Yunhua didn't say the rest, but now that the great Chairman Jiang took the initiative to send him, then Han Yunhua was not polite. He sent a telegram to the Party Central Committee in the name of the commander of the Neing Ancient Military Region and the secretary of the Northern Bureau, suggesting that the Party Central Committee should not care about the immediate interests, that everything should be based on the overall situation, that certain concessions could be made between the territories, and that all the territory of Hebei except for eastern Hebei should be ceded to the Nationalist Government, including the Beijing-Tianjin region, but the area north of Zhangjiakou should never be ceded to the Nationalist Government.

In addition, the Party Central Committee can try to negotiate with Yan Xishan, and exchange Shanxi's territory for its control in the Guisui region, although the Jin Suijun is claimed to be the Jin Suijun, but as long as a discerning person knows that Yan Xishan still cares about the interests of the Shanxi region, and its ruling center is still in Shanxi. Now the Inner Folk Ancient Military Region has occupied almost half of the northwestern part of Shanxi, and even the important town of Datong is under the control of Han Yunhua's subordinates, so as long as Han Yunhua's subordinates are willing, Yan Xishan will definitely exchange the control of Guisui for the complete ruling power of Shanxi.

After the telegram was sent, Han Yunhua did not pay any attention to the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and this was the time when it was appropriate to chase after the poor and the poor, and if the success fell short at this time, then the so-called Kuomintang-Communist talks would soon end without a problem.

Soon Han Yunhua ordered the headquarters to move forward, and on December 9 in Luoshuihe Town, Lingqiu County, he met with Nie Rongzhen, commander of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the two military regions held talks on the next war, and the result of the talks was that from now on, the Inner Spiritual Ancient Military Region was only responsible for moving forward, and all the territory laid down in the rear was defended and digested by the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the captured spoils were divided into six or four points by the two military regions, the Inner Éng Ancient Military Region was given six layers, and the Jin-Chahar-Hebei Military Region was given four layers.

On the same day, Han Yunhua issued an order to increase the number of troops in the Inner Ancient Military Region, and in addition to the necessary defensive forces, the remaining troops of the entire military region immediately moved south and assembled in Datong. In addition, the 8th Field Division immediately moved east to eastern Hebei and joined up with the 77th Independent Division to jointly defend eastern Hebei to prevent the Japanese Kwantung Army from moving south.

At the same time, Han Yunhua ordered the 4th Field Division on the front line to immediately move south to attack Jingcheng Pass, while the troops in southern Hebei coordinated with the movement towards the Shien area and dragged the 26th Division stationed in the Shien area. Han Yunhua believed that as long as Jingcheng Pass was attacked, then General Tian Jun would definitely not be able to sit still.

Although the Japanese Fifth Division and the 38th Division are also considered to be strong, these two divisions have been severely damaged in the previous period of fighting, although many veterans have been replenished later, but the combat effectiveness has not yet returned to the peak state, and the most important thing is that these two divisions have lost heavy equipment some time ago and have not been replenished until now, so they are not much stronger than the troops of the Inner Ancient Military Region in terms of weapons and equipment. What made Lieutenant General Ando Toshiyoshi feel most depressed was that the number of the team was definitely beyond the expectations of all the top echelons of the imperial army, just outside Zhangjiakou they found about eight Chinese infantry divisions, and there were also about two artillery clusters and a high machine gun wing, such a powerful firepower even the imperial army cluster did not dare to get too close to the battlefield, hundreds of heavy machine guns and high machine guns fired at the same time, even if there were more planes, they could only end up with hatred.

What the Japanese troops stationed in Zhangjiakou did not expect was that even after they reoccupied Zhangjiakou, they immediately repaired the seriously damaged city fortifications and dug Zhangjiakou back into a military fortress, with the support of a large number of steel and concrete, the rebuilt Zhangjiakou was much stronger than the previous fortifications built by Xu Shiyou's department.

Now the positions of the offensive and defensive sides are changed, the original defensive field division has become the offensive force, while the fifth division and the 38th division have become the defensive troops, the two sides along the line from Zhangbei to Zhangjiakou one by one, the whole month of the battle finally let Xu Shiyou's troops break through all the Japanese defense lines along the line, and the troops are under the city of Zhangjiakou.

In fact, Xu Shiyou, He Guangyu and others knew very well that the reason why the Japanese army behaved so badly was not because of how strong the combat effectiveness of the troops of the several divisions under their command was, but because Lieutenant General Ando Toshiyoshi did not intend to compete with them in the field, after all, the Japanese army is limited now, and if it falls into the encirclement of the squadron in the field, it will really be hopeless, so Lieutenant General Ando Toshiyoshi adopted the previous method of Han Yunhua's unit to deal with the Japanese army, relying on the favorable terrain to block and block, and killing and injuring a large number of the squadron's vital forces. This is to govern others in their own way.

And the effect of this tactic is also obvious, although the Japanese army is fighting and retreating along the way, but the casualties of the Japanese army are ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
