The sedan chair is carried by everyone, and the credit cannot be swallowed by himself, Yang Tianfeng is still very experienced in this regard.

In later generations, in his memory, countless people, when they have achievements, like to sing "thank the leader and thank the colleagues". Thanks to the leadership of what? People didn't do anything for you, and you have to thank them. At least, people didn't bother you! What do you thank for your colleagues? Thank you all for not having pink eye and not stabbing yourself in the back.

In ancient and modern times, Yang Tianfeng praised the military commander of the eastern Henan group, and the accurate information he provided laid the foundation for victory. Team Leader Ma was even more brave and fearless, risking his life to enter the tiger's den many times to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. Finally, the enemy's firepower and personnel composition were learned, and the door to victory was opened for the capture of Yongcheng.

Of course, it's not a boast in vain, Yang Tianfeng also sent a private letter to Ma Yuming by the way, which was nothing more than a request for support in terms of people, property, and intelligence. Explosives specialists, telegraph operators, radio stations, guns and ammunition, etc., are listed on a large sheet of paper.

In this regard, Ma Yuming did not feel bored, but felt that Yang Tianfeng was a big person, and supporting him was a matter of mutual benefit. The telegram to the boss had already been sent, and he tried his best to help Yang Tianfeng get some supplies, and after a few days of meeting, the atmosphere could be more harmonious and the relationship could be more intimate.

The Yellow Flood Area is safe for the time being, and there is nothing to be done here in the county seat, so Ma Yuming has decided to lead the main personnel of his group to Mangdang Mountain, where they will work in the enemy-occupied areas.

In this way, he will have to rely on Yang Tianfeng's army even more, although he desperately wants to take command over, but at least for the time being, it is unlikely. Yang Tianfeng has successively transferred two batches of troops from Wuyang County, with a total of more than 300 people, these are his trusted soldiers, and it will take time for Ma Yuming to infiltrate.

Ma Yuming opened "The Essence of Boya Tactics" again, which Yang Tianfeng specially sent someone to send from Yongcheng, using a stone printing press that he found out of nowhere. Although the handwriting is sloppy and some places are not clear, for a guy like Ma Yuming, who is engaged in intelligence work, has an extremely sharp mind, and knows a lot of inside information, this book makes him excited.

If the book had appeared a year earlier, Ma Yuming might have scoffed at it and thrown it in the trash. At the beginning of the outbreak of the all-out war of resistance, the Kuomintang only attached importance to the frontal battlefield, "attached importance to the regular army, and there were only a few self-defense army volunteers in various regions, similar to the organization of guerrillas."

However, with the loss of large areas of land such as Pingjin, Jinjin, Hebei, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang, and the rapid defeat of the regular Kuomintang troops, many people of insight deeply felt that China "with inferior equipment, it will certainly not achieve very good results by merely fighting with the enemy on one point and one line." As a result, the arguments of "all-out war" and "all-out war" became the most popular terms at that time.

The Nationalist Government is also aware of this. In order to adapt to the new situation, the Military Commission formulated a new plan on December 13, 1937, pointing out that "the purpose of the Kuomintang * Army to ensure the core of Wuhan, protracted war of resistance, and strive for the final victory should use all theaters as corridors to launch a vast guerrilla war."

On January 8, 1938, Chiang ZS convened an important military conference in Hankou to discuss tactics against the enemy. At this meeting, Bai Chongxi proposed: In terms of tactics, "guerrilla warfare should be coordinated with regular warfare, guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines should be strengthened, the occupation of areas should be expanded, the people in the occupied areas should be won over, the enemy should be harassed, and the enemy should be confined to the occupation of points and lines." At the same time, the crackdown on pseudo-organizations has developed from military warfare to political warfare and economic warfare, and then gradually to all-out warfare and overall warfare, so as to achieve the effect of "accumulating small victories into big victories and exchanging space for time." Bai Chongxi's suggestion was adopted by Chiang ZS, and he immediately ordered all theaters to intensify guerrilla warfare.

Of course, there was another reason why Chiang ZS gradually attached importance to guerrilla warfare. After the fall of North China, almost all the Kuomintang troops, especially the descendants of the army, retreated. The Eighth Route Army penetrated deep behind enemy lines and quickly developed and established large base areas. It was the lessons of North China that made Jiang ZS alert, and after the loss of Shanghai and Nanjing, he deliberately left Han Deqin's troops of about 100,000 soldiers and horses in northern Jiangsu, and Liao Lei's 70,000 troops in northern Anhui.

The convening of the Hankow Conference marked the initial formation of the Kuomintang's thinking on guerrilla tactics behind enemy lines, but what was not matched by the lack of guerrilla theory. Of course, the experience of "encircling and suppressing" the Red Army five times also had a far-reaching impact on the transformation of the Kuomintang's military thinking. The Kuomintang learned and became familiar with guerrilla tactics and studied and applied them in part.

The development of the situation has pushed guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines to a strategic position of protracted operations, and has also made Yang Tianfeng's "The Essence of Boya Tactics" even more sensational and practical.

A gentle knock on the door interrupted Ma Yuming's thoughts, and as soon as the door opened, Liao Wenzhong, the deputy team leader who had recently arrived from Luoyang, walked in.

"Team leader, everything is done, what else do you have to order?" Liao Wenzhong is thin and tall, like a bamboo pole, and also like a scholar, calm and calm.

Ma Yuming stretched out his hand and motioned for Liao Wenzhong to sit down, and said with a smile: "I just came from Luoyang, and I have to bother you to go back again." ”

"The team leader is polite, serving the country, and I don't dare to say the word "tired." Liao Wenzhong said expressionlessly.

Ma Yuming nodded, patted the "Essence of Boya Tactics" on the table, pushed it in front of Liao Wenzhong, and said slowly: "In addition to raising materials and recruiting personnel, print this book as soon as possible, find the best printing office, use the best paper, and then send someone to hand it over to Director Dai." We don't have to worry about the rest. ”

"Understood." Liao Wenzhong took the book, didn't look at it, and simply agreed neatly.

"Be careful, don't let anyone else know about it." Ma Yuming solemnly reminded.

Liao Wenzhong nodded, the factions in the Kuomintang are complicated, and Ma Yuming wants to take the credit for the military commander, so that Director Dai can get a head in front of Chairman Jiang, and by the way, he can also make Director Dai blue-eyed.

"Team leader, this is a list of gifts, please take a look."

Ma Yuming took it and looked at it, and expressed his appreciation. This time, the ship went to Yongcheng not only with him the military radio station and related personnel, but also a condolence group organized by the county magistrate Yao Zongfa, as well as more than 100 recruits.

Yang Tianfeng was fighting outside, and the food and property he looted were not less transported. Part of it is used to help the county government carry out disaster relief work; A part of it was transported to Yangjiayuan as a reserve and savings; The other part is a reward for meritorious deeds, and all families who send troops will get a share.

This measure is very eye-catching, after the catastrophe, the land can not be planted, the more food is eaten, the less and less food is eaten, and following Yang Tianfeng to earn extra money to support his family, it has become the first choice for many people.
