Section 9 Phantom V

The third part of the Bloody War of Resistance, Chapter 9, Rushing and Ninth Chapter, Phantom

As the rushing Yellow River roared, the waves crashed against the yellow earth on both banks, and Matsui sat on his knees on the beach, carefully looking at the yellow river, the river that the Chinese call his mother. The whole book is turbid, fine sand grains roll and rise in the river, and the straw and rotten wood washed down by the river float in the water; It devoured all obstacles and rushed to the ocean without stopping.

Think about how high-spirited he was when he led the Central China Dispatch Army to board the ship in Hiroshima six years ago, when Japan was a national carnival, countless girls threw sweet smiles to the warriors on the expedition, and countless wives hung thousands of needles on their husbands' chests; At that time, no one thought that Japan would fail, and who would have thought that Japan at that time would be now?

The cannonballs exploded in the river, stirring up a high column of water that rushed into the air and scattered in all directions, making a splash. Matsui Ishone seemed to care at all, it was the shells of the 82 mortars, and the sound of killing and gunfire was already clearly audible.

After more than a month of fierce fighting, it has come to an end today; Two days earlier, the 59th Division had been completely annihilated in Yucheng, and the division commander Hosokawa Tadayasu had been killed, before Hosokawa Tadayasu; Yesterday, the 3rd Mixed Brigade and the 21st Mixed Brigade, which had retreated from the Taishan defensive line, were attacked by the First Army, and the two brigades collapsed.

"Killing" and "Capturing Matsui Shigen Alive" The blue sky and white sun flag broke through the obstacles of the Japanese army and rushed to the bank of the Yellow River.

Matsui Shigen pulled out his ribs, lifted it high, and slammed it into his stomach, this swing, with despair, with unwillingness, blood, soaked through his military uniform, because of the pain, he was weak, the sword behind him flashed, the painful head rolled into the Yellow River, and the blood spurted out stained the water on the bank red, and was quickly diluted by the river.

The water of the Yellow River is still yellow.

"The Jiangbei Theater Command released a war report today, in this Shandong operation, the 12th Army of the Japanese North China Dispatch Army was completely annihilated, and the commander of the 12th Army, General Matsui Ishone, the commander of the 59th Division, Lieutenant General Hosokawa Tadayasu, the commander of the 62nd Division, Lieutenant General Yoshio Hongo, the chief of staff, Major General Tadao Teragaki, the commander of the 1st Tank Division, Lieutenant General Hoshino Toshimoto, and the commander of the 5th Mixed Brigade, Major General Taizo Itamoto,......, in this operation, a total of three divisions and five mixed brigades of the enemy were annihilated, and the 27th Division, the 41st Division, and the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army were severely damaged, the 71st Division, the 212th Division, and the 36th Division, annihilated more than 117,000 enemies.

After this battle, our army recovered the entire Shandong and Henan, and pushed the battle line from the Huai River to the North China Plain. This victory was won under the guidance of Chairman of the National People's Congress during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the founding of the country, and it was the ...... of our soldiers who fought bravely and shed blood and sacrificed. ”

The victory was repeated on the radio, and bursts of cheers were heard outside the window at the same time, and the citizens of Chongqing were spontaneously marching to celebrate the victory of Shandong. Zhou EN came to look at the parade on the street, and let out a long breath, the Kuomintang army won a big victory again in this battle, the New Fourth Army of the Eighth Route Army suffered little loss in this battle, but the gain was not small, the biggest loss was Chen G's blocking battle in Wang Tong, the first detachment of the guerrilla corps was disabled, with more than 5,000 casualties, but both the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters thought it was worthwhile, and Chen G was commended by the Eighth Route Army Headquarters for this.

Luo Rhuan and Peng Xfeng led the third detachment to attack southern Hebei and occupy most of the southern Hebei region.

To the west of Pinghan Road, neither the Kuomintang nor the Communist Party expected Gu Shoufu to suddenly abandon Anyang, and even Handan was not defended, and retreated directly to Shijiazhuang, waiting for the two armies to react, after all, the Kuomintang army attacked along the Pinghan Road and quickly seized the main cities on the Pinghan Road, and the Eighth Route Army only seized some areas further away.

In the main direction of operations, He L led the main force of the Eighth Route Army and the first part of the New Fourth Army to attack Yanbei, but was blocked by Fu Zuoyi's department, seeing that the Japanese troops in Suiyuan and Inner Mongolia were retreating one after another, and they were anxious, and the two sides had clashed several times. In these conflicts, it is difficult to justify the first side by fighting devils, the Japanese army north of Daqingshan has retreated, and the remaining traitors, the government of King De has been reversed.

With the defeat of the Japanese army, the conflict between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party became increasingly prosperous, and these conflicts were all accompanied by turf disputes, from Taiyuan to Jinzhong, and then to southern Hebei, Jizhong, Jiaodong, Yimengshan, the conflict continued, and the central government repeatedly called, pointing out that this was the continuation of the Kuomintang's ** policy, and asked him to fully unite with the democratic parties and negotiate with the Kuomintang.

But the difficulty in this is too great, with the military victories on the front line again and again, the euphemism of the Nationalist government began to rise, and the old man Mei proposed at the political meeting that the problem of the War of Resistance should be solved first, and political stability should be maintained before the Japanese invaders were driven out of China. This appeal was supported by Deng Yanda, Zhang Lan and others, and directly led to the gradual subsidence of the call for the formulation of a constitution.

Zhou EN came to understand who was in charge behind this. After Zhuang Jihua became the commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations, he successively won the Northern Hubei Battle, the Henan Offensive Battle, the Huainan Offensive Battle, and the Shandong Offensive Battle, and recovered Northern Hubei, Henan, and Shandong, and the important provincial capitals were Wuhan, Zhengzhou, and Jinan, which indirectly led to the recovery of Nanchang and Taiyuan.

The day after the annihilation of Matsui Shigen, Chiang Kai-shek ordered Zhuang Jihua to be promoted to the rank of first-class general, becoming the youngest of the first-class generals, with the victory of this battle, Chiang Kai-shek continued to increase troops to North China, the new First Army, the new Sixth Army, and the 74th Army were transferred from Burma to North China, and the 23rd Group Army of the Sichuan Army south of the Yangtze River and the newly established 29th Group Army were all transferred to North China.

The 23 rd Group Army is well-equipped, and the whole army is made in Chongqing, and the equipment of the 29 th Group Army is also not bad, with all the soldiers coming from the former Liu Xiang Group, and Wang Zanxu, commander of the group army, under the jurisdiction of two armies, the 44 th Army and the 67 th Army, with a total strength of 60,000 troops. In order to prepare for the establishment of this group army, Deng Xihou, Tian Songyao, Wang Zanxu and others racked their brains, almost wiped out their family funds, and recruited more than 20,000 new talents.

Zhou EN came to see Chiang Kai-shek's move, and Chiang Kai-shek's goal ultimately fell on the Sichuan Development Company, and Zhou EN judged that after Chiang Kai-shek transferred all the Sichuan troops out of Sichuan, he would attack the Sichuan Development Company. But what makes him wonder is, how did Chiang Kai-shek start and forcibly nationalize? This method is too brutal, it will cause a collective revolt of the heroes in Sichuan, and it will also arouse Zhuang Jihua's disgust, and now Zhuang Jihua's political influence is getting bigger and bigger, and Chiang Kai-shek will not scruple about it.

From the beginning of the Taiyuan conflict, Zhou En came to lodge a strong protest to the Kuomintang, demanding that the Kuomintang punish Mo Youshuo, commander of the 86th Army, who provoked the incident, return Taiyuan, punish Yang Sen, commander of the 24th Group Army, punish Yu Xuezhong, commander of the 51st Army, and return Qingdao. However, this demand was resolutely rejected by the Kuomintang, and Chen Lifu and He Jinhan put forward counter-demands during the negotiations, demanding that the Eighth Route Army return Datong and Changzhi, punish Xu Syou, the general of the Eighth Route Army who attacked the Kuomintang Army in Jiaodong, and return Qixia, Yantai, Weihai and other cities.

For such conditions, Zhou EN was so angry that he almost got angry on the spot, he sternly refuted Chen Lifu, He Jinhan's request, but the negotiations also reached an impasse, Zhou EN came to make it clear, in fact, the Central Committee and Chiang Kai-shek did not really want to take back those cities, Taiyuan, Qingdao, Yantai, Weihai, Changzhi, these places are areas that the two parties will never give up, especially Taiyuan Qingdao.

But negotiations must continue, not for the sake of conflicts that have already occurred and, above all, to prevent future conflicts.

The door opened, Chen Lifu was in front, Zhang Chonghe was in the back, it could be seen that Chen Lifu's complexion was very good, with a slight smile on his face, Zhou EN came to exchange glances with Dong Bwu, and the two walked to the table silently.

"Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry, I was late, I didn't expect so many people to participate in the parade." Chen Lifu stretched out his hand to Zhou En apologetically.

ZHOU EN ALSO SMILED AND HELD HIS HAND: "YES, WE HAVE ACHIEVED A GREAT VICTORY, RECOVERING HALF OF THE RIVERS AND MOUNTAINS, AND NOW ONLY GU SHOUFU'S 60,000 TROOPS ARE STILL INTACT IN THE WHOLE NORTH CHINA, AND THE REST OF THE TROOPS ARE INCOMPLETE, WHICH IS A GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ATTACK BEIPING." ”

"Continue to attack," Chen Lifu smiled slightly: "Mr. Zhou is joking, although I am a literati and do not understand military affairs, I also guide the truth of killing 10,000 enemies and losing 3,000 myself. ”

Zhou EN came to say that the situation is very good, it is indeed true, Matsui Shigen was completely annihilated, the 12th Army of the North China Dispatch Army was annihilated, Liaocheng Youmo Jingsan learned that Qi County was lost, immediately went north to break through, thousands of miles of escape, Song Xilian commanded the troops to chase after relentlessly, Nakajima Yasuken led the fifth division to break off, left and right to kill, heavy losses.

The bigger surprise is that on the battlefield of Wang Tong, Qiu Qingquan's tank was unstoppable, after defeating the 27th Division, a huge gap was formed behind the Japanese flank, the new Eighth Army and the 104th Division that came up with reinforcements followed behind the tank, the 41st Division did not expect the 27th Division to collapse so quickly, caught off guard, the troops were cut into several sections, Abe Pingpu commanded the troops to desperately block the attack, the 16th Mixed Brigade and the 36th Division abandoned the new 110th Division and the Pangsun Puppet Army, gathered the main force, desperately came to help, In the end, with huge losses, he grabbed Abe Tiling and retreated to Hengshui, Qiu Qingquan was able to kill and chased until the Qingliang River to hold his foot.

Although Abe tiling came out, his 41st Division almost did not exist, and the main force was completely annihilated west of Wang Tong. The separate 16 mixed brigade also lost most of it.

The defeat of Wang Tong's battlefield also affected Arisue Seizan who was on the way to retreat. After learning of Wang Tong's defeat, Seizo sent a telegram to Beiping, asking Okamura Ninji to strictly order him to hold Hengshui and receive his troops. Okamura Ningji urgently transferred the 71st Division of Shijiazhuang to the east, and then felt that the strength of the 71st Division might be insufficient, so he transferred the 122nd Division from Zhangjiakou and ordered it to quickly move south to the Pingjin area, and be ready to go south at any time together with the 1st Division of the 9th Division, which had just landed in Tianjin.
