Chapter 512: The Hoes (19th Update)

[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 512: The Hoes (Ask for subscriptions, ask for monthly passes, ask for everything!) )

In order to successfully complete this hoeing and rape task, Ma Zheng deliberately set up the Luxi Anti-Japanese Hoeing and Rape Brigade with the wolf's tooth special operations brigade as the mainstay, supplemented by the intelligence department. This anti-Japanese hoe and traitor brigade was not thought up by Ma Zheng at random, but it was indeed a person. It's just that the "establishment" of the people is much larger than that of his brigade, and the people are "regimental" level establishments.

Speaking of this anti-Japanese hoe gang, the past two years have been in full swing, and they are very famous in the Pingjin area.

The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was a great war in which the whole people participated, and its tragedy was rare in ancient and modern history. This is not only manifested in the battlefield itself, but also in the battlefield There are many things behind the battlefield that have touched the entire Chinese people, just like the 800 heroic martyrs of the Kuomintang Baoshan Battalion guarding the Sixing Warehouse during the Battle of Songhu. The reason why people can remember the Baoshan Battalion is not that the Baoshan Battalion is the best and most elite among the millions of troops in the country, but that when the Battle of Songhu was fought in that year, the Kuomintang government sent a total of hundreds of thousands of troops in the Shanghai area, and a battalion could not even splash a blister there.

But why did the people of the whole country know about the Baoshan Battalion overnight, not only because the Baoshan Battalion regarded death as the queen of the army, but also integrated the factors of the Baoshan Battalion itself and some of the factors of the National War of Resistance, such as the little girl who was famous for giving the national flag. It was the little girl who sent a blue sky and white sun flag to the Baoshan camp regardless of her life and death, she let the people of the whole country see hope, let the people of the whole country know that even a little girl in junior high school knows about the anti-Japanese map, so the Baoshan camp is on fire.

It is precisely because of the National War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression that many unknown and even historically unrecorded anti-Japanese groups have emerged across the country. Some are armed anti-Japanese, and some are curves to save the country lurking inside the enemy, such as this anti-Japanese hoe gang.

The final outcome of the anti-Japanese hoe gang is tragic, but this is not something that Ma Zheng can consider. Ma Zheng is now thinking about how to beat the name of this anti-Japanese hoe and traitor brigade in Shandong, after all, Shandong is not far from Tianjin, and some things in Tianjin, the Japanese puppet army in Shandong has also heard of them, and the people and things of the anti-Japanese hoe gang are even more familiar with the big traitors and little devils in Shandong.

Therefore, it is still very feasible to impersonate this anti-Japanese hoe gang. In this way, it can not only relieve the pressure on Ma Zheng's side, but also transfer the Japanese reconnaissance line to other places.

Due to the limited number of personnel, Ma Zheng, a high-quality special combat member, only had a little more than 300 in his hands, and in addition to leaving more than 40 instructors to serve as independent divisions, Xu Haifeng could mobilize less than 260 people.

As soon as Ma Zheng's order was issued, Xu Haifeng's side immediately began to act. It may take a long time for other units to prepare for a war, but these special combat soldiers have nothing to prepare for a war except for the necessary ammunition, so it only takes ten minutes to assemble.

On 7 August, Xu Haifeng led 264 special combat personnel on the expedition.

After Xu Haifeng left, Ma Zheng was not idle. The Japanese army seems to have regarded Yanggu County and its surrounding areas as a hard-hit area. Lieutenant General Otaka Kamezo, the highest officer stationed in Shandong, has telegraphed Major General Shiro Segawa of the 10th Infantry Brigade to begin work on rectifying law and order in this area.

At the same time, Lieutenant General Ogaka Kamizo also issued a death order to Tang Yangdu, the head of the puppet Shandong Provincial Government and the puppet Shandong Provincial Government, ordering his Shandong puppet army to immediately assemble in Liaocheng, and also exerting pressure on the front-line commanders who were negotiating with the Huyan family in Yanggu County, if the Huyan family did not accept the conditions proposed by the imperial army before the 15th, the imperial army would take other means to solve the affairs in Yanggu County.

As for what the other means are, the people of the Huyan family can imagine what they are with their buttocks, isn't it just using guns and bullets, can they use it to scare people like this.

Soon, news came from Yanggu County that the Huyan family was willing to accept the conditions of the Japanese army, and the whole family would evacuate Yanggu County before August 20 and completely leave Shandong at the end of August.

After receiving this news, Ma Zheng did not have any surprises, because it is obviously unrealistic for a family to compete with a strong country. As a typical Chinese family, the interests of the family are sometimes more important than the interests of the state. It was completely unexpected that the Huyan family would choose like this, so Ma Zheng was not the slightest surprise.

is clear, but it does not mean that Ma Zheng understands the Huyan family's approach. As a citizen of a country, everyone should understand the principle that only when there is a country can there be a home, how when it comes to a critical moment, they only care about themselves or the interests of their own small group, and throw the interests of the country behind their heads.

Although he Ma Zheng is not a pedantic person, there are times when necessary compromises are acceptable, such as when they exchange prisoners with the Japanese army, but he still can't do anything like this to compromise with the enemy.

Not only Ma Zheng could not do it, but any truly conscientious Chinese could not do it; compared with the phenomenon of the National Government defecting to the enemy in groups, the number of people who surrendered to the enemy in the entire eight years of the War of Resistance was only a handful, especially in the case of senior commanders, and there was hardly a single case of the Eighth Route Army.

Ma Zheng clearly remembered that in 1939, Zuo Quan, deputy chief of the general staff of the Eighth Route Army, wrote an article entitled "The Eighth Route Army in Two Years of Persisting in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in North China", pointing out that in the past two years of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the main forces of the Eighth Route Army alone had more than 15,000 killed and wounded in the North China War. More than 50 per cent of this total casualty were party members. Zuo Quan used these figures to respond to the accusations made by some people on the Kuomintang side that the Eighth Route Army was "swimming but not attacking."

However, to this day, many people still have doubts about the significance of the guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines led by the Eighth Route Army to the Chinese people's War of Resistance Against Japan. Since the Chinese people finally chose the Communist Party to lead China, it shows that the Communist Party of China is an advanced political party and a political party worthy of the trust of the Chinese people.

Of course, we cannot equate those who really want to seek the truth and truth with those who have ulterior motives, no matter who they are, who have their own understanding of the protracted war.

Even Ma Zheng himself had such doubts at that time, especially when he walked in the Chinese Anti-Japanese History Museum and saw the battle data recorded in it, his doubts were even stronger.

According to historical records, the vast number of patriotic officers and soldiers of the Kuomintang fought 22 large-scale bloody battles against the Japanese army in the front, killing and wounding hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops and smashing the Japanese army's plan to annihilate China in three months. Hundreds of Kuomintang generals died honorably in these battles, and their names can be seen in China's major anti-war museums.

Compared with the 22 large-scale battles of the Kuomintang army in the frontal war of resistance, how significant was the guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines led by Yan'an to the War of Resistance against Japan? How much did the Eighth Route Army and the guerrillas, which had fought only one large-scale battle, contribute to the War of Resistance Against Japan?

However, with Ma Zheng's in-depth research on the history of China's Anti-Japanese War, many doubts have been solved. The merits of the Nationalist Government in frontal combat can be affirmed, but the role of the Eighth Route Army in fighting behind enemy lines cannot be ignored.

Before 37 to 39 years, the role of the Kuomintang in the frontal battlefield was undoubted, and as the Nationalist Government propagated, the Nationalist Government at that time was the mainstay of China's War of Resistance. But it was only after 1939 that the anti-Japanese battlefield behind enemy lines really showed its might, which ****** and all the senior military and political officials of the Kuomintang did not expect.

Later, Zhu De, commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, said in a military report entitled "On the Battlefield in the Liberated Areas" delivered at the Seventh National Congress: "In seven and a half years, the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army, and the South China Anti-Japanese Column fought a total of more than 115,000 battles against the enemy, killed and wounded more than 960,000 enemy puppet soldiers, captured more than 280,000 enemy puppet soldiers, and strived to surrender to the enemy and puppet army in more than 100,000 pieces, and the total number of enemy and puppet troops was more than 1.36 million."

Moreover, Ma Zheng also knew that the data of Commander-in-Chief Zhu De was not accurate, because of the frequent wars, the entire South China Anti-Japanese Column lacked data before 1943. At this time, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army created liberated areas in 19 provinces and regions in North, Central and South China, with a total population of hundreds of millions, and the total number of troops of the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army and the South China Anti-Japanese Column had reached 910,000 regular troops and more than 2.2 million militiamen.

If Lao Chiang's strategic plan was concerned, the vast liberated areas like the one should have given up a long time ago, then where would these hundreds of thousands of regular troops come from? (To be continued.) )
