Without waiting for Liu Yimin to wake up from the joy of Feng Dafei's triumph, Li Qiang and others, He Xinghua came in a hurry, and shouted "Good news, good news, Wanjialing victory!" ”

Liu Yimin's heart was excited, the Wanjialing victory in history still happened, but the time was so late, it was the end of October, 20 days later than the Wanjialing victory in history. But this is also normal, in history, our army withdrew from Wuhan on October 25, and now it is the end of the month, isn't Wuhan still in the hands of the Chinese? Historically, the army took control of Guangzhou on October 23, and now the troops attacking Guangzhou may not have set off yet!

He Xinghua took the good news from the headquarters, took a closer look, and it was really the same as the Wanjialing victory in history, Xue Yue commanded [***] to seize the opportunity of the 10th and 6th Divisions of the Yue Army to try to intersperse detours, and crippled the 106th Division of the Yue Army in the Wanjialing area, which was almost equivalent to total annihilation. It really played the demeanor of Xue Yue's famous general, and also played the demeanor of the ace army of the 74th Army.

Liu Yimin was excited, and immediately drafted a telegram asking the headquarters to transfer to Chiang Kai-shek and Xue Yue, warmly congratulating Wanjialing on his victory, and praising Xue Yue as "a famous Chinese general and a pioneer in the resistance to the Japanese."

After sending the telegram, Liu Yimin thought about it carefully, the battle of Wuhan was fought at this time, and the casualties of the army were already very heavy, like the victory of Wanjialing, one of the main factors was that the 27th Division, which was tasked with supporting the 10th 6th Division, suffered too much loss, and after receiving the order to reinforce the 10th 6th Division, Lieutenant General Masaharu Honma, the commander of the 27th Division, saw that the sequel to the [***] team was tenacious, and he was unwilling to exchange the lives of his soldiers for the lives of the soldiers of the 10th and 6th Division, ignoring Okamura Ningji's order, and turned his troops to attack in other directions, Sold the 1st 06th Division. From this point, it can be seen that the entire battle of Wuhan is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, which scared the little devils.

Thinking about the Battle of Fujin Mountain, the Battle of Xinluo and the battles of the fortresses along the Yangtze River, the Chinese [***] team all showed a tenacious will to fight and fought to the death. No matter how strong Xiao Yue Ben is, no matter how fierce his firepower is, when he encounters the squadron [***] who is willing to shed blood and sacrifice to defend his family and defend the country, what else can it do except fill the road to Wuhan with the lives of its soldiers?

Thinking about it, I thought of the heroic posture of the officers and men of the 74th Army and the Fourth Army of Wanjialing, which was a life-for-life fight. Although the 10th and 6th Divisions belong to the third-class divisions in the army, the real combat effectiveness is not as good as the garrison division and the public security division, but after all, it is a trapped beast fighting, and it will fight to the death at a critical time.

As soon as Liu Yimin thought about it, he felt mixed blessings. The good news is that at this time of the Battle of Wuhan, the little devils have used all their strength to eat milk, and they have not benefited much, but they have occupied more space, and they have exchanged human lives for territory, and strategically speaking, they have fallen behind. On the contrary, our army is strategically more clever than the Yue army, and its tactics are much more flexible than in the past. The worry is that after all, the army is still very strong, and if we are not careful, we will expose our troops to the planes and heavy artillery of the army, and we will have to sacrifice a large number of veterans for every battle, which will easily weaken the combat effectiveness of the troops and will not be conducive to a protracted war. In particular, the army suffered successive defeats in the Battle of Wuhan, and it will inevitably increase its troops on a large scale, and Wuhan is afraid that it will no longer be able to defend. In particular, Xiao Yueben suffered heavy casualties and made slow progress around Wuhan, and he would inevitably mobilize troops to attack and occupy Guangzhou. If Guangzhou is lost, it will cut off the channel for foreign trade with the national government, and it will be difficult to buy weapons, ammunition, and raw materials from Europe and the United States. I am afraid that only the Yunnan-Burma Highway, the China-India Highway and the Hump Route can support the transportation of anti-Japanese war materials for the national government.

Liu Yimin is now eager to start attacking immediately, disrupting the deployment of the army, and making the little devil look at Wuhan in a daze. However, from a strategic point of view, he had to wait, at the very least, for the Yue army to land in Guangdong, and then he could really hit the seven inches of the Yue army.

Suppressing his inner impulse, Liu Yimin ordered Qian Zhuangfei to closely monitor the movements of the Xuzhou Army, especially the movements of the Fifth Division of the Xuzhou Army, and to report the information of the Fifth Division as soon as there was information.

Luo Ronghuan, Cai Zhong, and Qian Zhuangfei didn't know that the army might launch the Battle of Guangzhou, and they didn't know that the Fifth Division in history was the main force that attacked Guangdong. I think we should strengthen the reconnaissance and surveillance of the enemy in Zhengzhou, and in case the Japanese army defeats the main force of the first theater, we should be prepared. ”

When he said this, Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong both set their eyes on Liu Yimin.

Liu Yimin knew that Qian Zhuangfei's worries were also the worries of his comrades-in-arms, and maybe they were also the worries of the chairman. But he can't say that the army will definitely go south to attack Guangzhou, because that is history after all, and now the historical facts of the Anti-Japanese War have been revised so much by him, whether Xiao Yueben will go south to attack Guangzhou, he is not completely sure in his heart, in case Xiao Yueben is determined to capture Luoyang, then it is completely possible to attack Shaanxi or advance westward from Nanyang, threatening Xiangfan and Yichang, strategically speaking, this is also the best policy. Therefore, where Xiao Yue's next move will be must be supported by accurate intelligence.

Glancing at Qian Zhuangfei, Liu Yimin said slowly: "Chief of Staff Qian, keeping an eye on the Fifth Division is keeping an eye on the movements of the Yue Army, which is the most elite motorized division of the Yue Army invading China, no matter what conspiracy the Yue Army engages, it is inseparable from the participation of the Fifth Division." Luoyang has to keep an eye on it, but the most important thing is to keep an eye on Xuzhou, because if the Fifth Division has any tricks, it will definitely be replenished in Xuzhou. You told the comrades in Xuzhou that you must keep your eyes open, be careful of the Fifth Division's tricks, and don't let them deceive us by camouflage. As soon as it is discovered that the Fifth Division has arrived in Xuzhou and Lianyungang, our army will immediately launch an operation. This is not a trivial matter, and it must not be careless. ”

When Qian Zhuangfei heard this, he thought that Liu Yimin was going to clean up the Fifth Division again, and his face immediately flushed with joy, and he solemnly saluted Liu Yimin and said that he would promise to complete the task.

Liu Yimin told Qian Zhuangfei again, since Comrade Cao Xiangren is here, let him go to work immediately, the password of the army has been changed, and the code book we seized in the past is useless. However, they can send a telegram to Li Lingfeng and them, find a way to quietly seize a radio station of the Japanese army, and make an up-to-date code book of the Japanese army, and see if they can listen to the communication of the Japanese army. In addition, the Eighth Route Army Aviation Brigade is here, and their planes are all captured by us, so let's see if the password of the Army Aviation has been changed, and if so, forget it. If you don't change it, won't you be able to use it?

As soon as he finished saying this, Feng Dafei said that the North China Front Army had already changed the password, otherwise the army would still be able to attack the Mianxian Ordnance Base so smoothly?

Liu Yimin smiled dumbly, saying that he was really dizzy, and he regarded the little devil as a three-year-old doll. After speaking, he remembered that during the Battle of Wuhan, [***] captured a carrier-based plane of the Chinese army that had made a forced landing, and it was from this plane that Dai Li obtained the communication code of the military aviation unit, and began to set up a radio reconnaissance organization, which was expanded after arriving in Chongqing, and secretly monitored the communications of the Japanese army. Historically, Dai Li: They once obtained top-secret information about the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor through radio interception. Now, due to his own arrival, the North China Army has been forced to change the password frequently, and I wonder if the North China Army and Navy will also learn from the North China Front, so that Dai Li's efforts are in vain. Alas, I wish the Navy did not know that their carrier-based aircraft had been captured!

In the evening, Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan hosted a banquet to entertain the Eighth Route Army Aviation Brigade and the task force led by Li Qiang.

said that it was a banquet, but in fact, it was to set up a table in the courtyard of the division headquarters, and let the cooking class of the division make a big pot of chowder dishes, one bowl of vegetables, two steamed buns, and a bowl of rice soup per person. Liu Yimin invited 30 overseas Chinese pilots recruited by Ni Hua from the United States to have dinner and communicate with the Eighth Route Army Aviation Brigade.

After these 30 pilots arrived in Shandong, they had no time to send them to Xi'an because their instructors had been in battle, so they could only be transferred with the troops. In the past two months, when the war was in between, Liu Yimin organized them into a brigade, asked Xue Junmin, who was the leader, to organize pilot training, and asked Cai Zhong to send cadres to live with them, mainly to exchange feelings and conduct military discipline education in the Eighth Route Army. Not to mention, these young young men who are eager to serve the country are really good, in just two months, when they are pulled out, they really look like the Eighth Route Army.

Feng Dafei had long known that Ni Hua had brought back a group of pilots from the United States, and when he thought of the excellent piloting skills and tenacious and flexible tactical style of David and the first batch of pilots, he was full of expectations for this group of pilots. At this meeting, Feng Dafei led a large team of cadres and soldiers to get together with them. Since they are all children of overseas Chinese, they all speak Chinese, and there is no language barrier, and soon the two groups of pilots are warm.

Xue Junmin and the others all graduated from flight schools in the United States, and they all obtained American pilot licenses, but they didn't know much about the plane, and they waited in Shandong for a few months in vain.

Feng Dafei saw that these young men were all good, so he asked everyone to eat first, and after eating, he took them to see the plane, picked up the vegetable bowl by himself, forked the steamed buns with chopsticks, ate and drank, and quickly filled his stomach. Then he ran over to Liu Yimin, saying that all these pilots had been incorporated into the aviation brigade, and that they could form a fighter brigade, a squadron of ten people, and each fighter plane. But now there is not a single fighter in the Eighth Route Army Aviation Brigade, and these 30 fighters have all landed on the little devils, so please ask the division commander to find a way as soon as possible. As long as there are fighters and aviation ammunition, the Eighth Route Army Aviation Brigade will be an air division that will keep the little devils awake and will be able to complete the task of bombing Tokyo assigned by the division commander.

Feng Dafei's eager appearance made Luo Ronghuan laugh, saying that Feng Dafei was like a stupid boy marrying a daughter-in-law, jumping up and down in a hurry.

Feng Dafei was embarrassed, smiled hehe, and said, "Political commissar, aren't I anxious?" The little devil is so rampant, bombing every day, I can't sit still! It turned out that we had fighter jets, but unfortunately the pilots were not trained enough, so they didn't dare to attack easily, so they fought with the little devils in the skies over Mian County! Now that there are qualified pilots, but the fighters are gone, what do you say? My pilot can't snatch the devil's plane! ”

Liu Yimin answered: "Why can't you?" Next time, I'm going to take you to the devil's airport to grab it. Isn't Xiao Yue industrially developed? Isn't it fast to build airplanes? Let's grab it and fry it to see if it's produced quickly, or if we fry it fast and grab it fast! ”

Cai Zhongle joked: "Such a big division commander, don't talk about robbing and bombing all day long, as if we are rough people." Do you understand? We are captured, we are captured loot! ”

Liu Yimin finished drinking the rice soup, put the bowl on the table, and said: "It's all the same, anyway, Lao Tzu robs a lot of little devils, and makes the little devils scold a lot, Lao Tzu doesn't care!" ”

Feng Dafei immediately answered: "Division Commander, you are a calligrapher, poet, painter, and a great intellectual who compiles textbooks in the minds of the soldiers. ”

Liu Yimin also felt that his Lao Tzu was too vulgar and inconsistent with his identity. Damn it, it's all pissed off by the little devils.

Luo Ronghuan likes to see Liu Yimin's arrogant posture the most, listening to a few of them bickering, his eyes are about to laugh into a slit. Seeing that Liu Yimin was silent, Luo Ronghuan said, "Okay, stop bickering." CMA CGM go greet your pilots and stay safe. The division commander should also hurry home and see if the child is well-behaved. I'm afraid Tang Xingying is looking forward to it! ”

As soon as Cai Zhong heard this, he immediately stood up and pushed Liu Yimin away, saying that he had been in the army for so long, and it was estimated that the elder brother of the division was also suffocated, so he hurried home to see his wife.

Liu Yimin's face is much thicker now, but Cai Zhong's face is still hot, and he can't care so much, with Cai Zhong's thrust, he directly turned around and left, and there was a lot of laughter behind him.

When I returned home, Tang Xingying was leading He'er to read and write by the light. Liu Yimin stood at the door outside the bedroom and glanced at it, and saw that he was reading the "Enlightened Chinese Reader" by Ye Shengtao's main text and Feng Zikai's illustration, and he was reading "The Green Postman Came to the Door": "A few thin pieces of paper, many black ants on the paper. The ants are silent, and everything is clear."

Tang Xingying's beautiful voice guide and immature children's voice are not only catchy to read, but also very warm. Liu Yimin was stunned all of a sudden, leaned on the door frame, and quietly enjoyed the picture of the two girls teaching and enjoying each other.

Tang Xingying felt that there seemed to be someone in the house, and when she looked up, she saw Liu Yimin staring at the two of them stupidly, and exclaimed "ah" with one mouth. As soon as the voice came out, he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, so that he could get rid of the image of a shy young woman.

As soon as He'er turned around, he saw that it was Liu Yimin standing at the door, and he didn't read the book anymore, so he jumped off the stool and ran to Liu Yimin with his hands outstretched, shouting "Dad" as he ran.

Liu Yimin picked up He'er, kissed him twice, and asked if He'er was obedient and obedient when his father was away?

Xiao Zhenghe said in a milky voice that he could listen to his mother, he already knew a lot of words, he could count, and he could memorize Tang poems.

As he spoke, the little guy showed off, and recited Li Bai's "Seven Uniques? Looking at Tianmen Mountain" "Tianmen interrupted the opening of the Chu River, and the clear water flowed eastward to this time. The green hills on both sides of the strait are opposite each other, and the lonely sails come to the side. After memorizing, the little guy was still unsatisfied, and recited another song of Li Bai's "Seven Uniques? Send Meng Haoran to Guangling": "The old man left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March. The lonely sail is far away from the blue mountains, and only the Yangtze River skyline can be seen. Liu Yimin kissed his son's little face a few times, and praised his son for being so well-behaved and smart.

Tang Xingying couldn't help but be overjoyed when she saw her husband coming back, and when she saw her husband praising her son, she was overjoyed and her face was full of vividness, so she hurriedly went to pour water for Liu Yimin.

Liu Yimin stopped his wife and asked her what about Ping'er.

Tang Xingying said that she had just been breastfed, and Sister-in-law Zhang took her to sleep. When she was idle, she taught her children to read.

Liu Yimin went to the troops to inspect this time, it was indeed a long time to go out, seeing Tang Xingying's pretty face, his heart was hot, and he wanted to let He'er go to sleep, but the little guy hadn't seen him for a long time, and when he saw him, his spirit got up, and he was tired of writhing in his arms, and from time to time he touched his hair and touched his face, pestering him to ask questions, and he didn't want to sleep at all.

Liu Yimin was in a hurry and had no choice, so he asked Tang Xingying if the work of the Women's Committee was going smoothly.

Liu Yimin's actions and expressions all fell into Tang Xingying's eyes. Women, even if they are strong warriors, they also like their lover's anxious look. Pursing her lips and smiling, Tang Xingying told Liu Yimin that the work of the Women's Committee was going very smoothly, the main force was here, the villagers in the base area had the backbone, and the enthusiasm for resisting the Ming Dynasty was very high. The Women's Committee has already held a training course for women cadres, recruiting female students from southeastern Shandong, Taiyi mountainous areas, and southern Shandong, mainly to study policy, military affairs, propaganda and agitation, and to establish organizations to mobilize the masses. After graduation, the trainees have all gone to the counties to report. The second training course has just begun, and the number of participants is much higher than that of the first. In the next step, the focus of the Women's Committee will be to mobilize young girls to join the militia and the army, cooperate with the field hospital and the health department of the Shandong Anti-Ming Boiled Political Axe Council, open a health school, and train a group of nurses for the troops.

After Tang Xingying finished speaking, He'er was finally dizzy to hear it. Liu Yimin made a look, and Tang Xingying took her son and hugged her to Sister-in-law Zhang.
