A heavy snowfall in early winter erased most of the traces of the war, and the refugees finally moved into newly built houses before the snow came, food was brought in from all over the country to ensure that they could survive the winter. The railway troops led by Yu Peidi finally rushed to repair and open the two railways to traffic before the heavy snow fell.

This winter is not idle, a large number of migrant workers are working at various airports in Shandong, and the young and middle-aged people who stay at home participate in reserve training every day. In addition to these. Something new is slowly starting to be accepted by the villagers. The county government fǔ newly appointed the village head. The county party department sent a party director. The villagers soon discovered that the party director had more power than the village. Most of these young party directors were young students who had just come out of school, and their enthusiasm soon set off a wave of anti-Japanese war construction in the land of Qilu.

The young party director helped the villagers rebuild their homes. Build roads. The villagers were quickly reorganized, the young and middle-aged were incorporated into the reserve corps to participate in military training during the off-season, and the village chief took the villagers to airports and other construction sites to participate in the construction, and the construction of more than 20 airports throughout Shandong began.

In addition to the airport, the Shandong Provincial Government also started to repair water conservancy facilities and road networks, and a large number of construction work was carried out, absorbing a large number of migrant workers. In addition, in addition to the political fǔ project, a group of former Shandong industrialists who moved to the southwest flew back to Shandong and began to build factories in Jinan, Qingdao and other places, and the investment group formed by the shareholders of the Sichuan Development Company decided to invest in the construction of three factories in Jinan after visiting Shandong.

The economy is recovering rapidly, the front line is still very calm, and the Japanese army continues to assemble in North China, "but to the surprise of the Chinese generals", the speed of the Japanese army's assembly is slower than estimated, except for the five divisions transferred from the Soviet and Russian battlefields, all of which have arrived, and the two divisions of the ancient battlefield of Méng can no longer come" Only four of the six divisions transferred from the Jiangnan battlefield have arrived. However, the four divisions of the Southern Army were still far away.

On the Chinese side, however, a large number of troops were gathered, with the New 1st Army, the New 6th Army, and the 74th Army, which had been transferred from the Burma battlefield, reaching North China at the end of November, and the New 8th Army and the 112th Army also reaching Wuhan. However, this was not enough, after returning from Tehran, he ordered the 71st Army and the 72nd Army and the 53rd Army of the Northeast Army to be transferred north from the Jiangnan Theater to the North China Theater: the 6th Independent Tank Brigade, which was newly organized and trained in Sichuan, was also transferred to the North China Theater.

In addition to the great changes in rural society. Industries are also beginning to recover slowly, "especially those related to the war." After five months of repairing and rebuilding, the Hanyang Arsenal has started producing small arms and mortars, while the rehabilitation and reconstruction of the Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant has also begun, and steel production will resume next year.

The original Henan Gongxian Arsenal was completely destroyed at the beginning of the retreat, but the Japanese army did not continue to advance westward after occupying Zhengzhou, and it became the front line of confrontation with the Japanese army. Wei Lihuang built a simple weapons repair shop here, and after Yu Dawei's inspection, he decided to rebuild the Gongxian Arsenal on this basis; so far the construction of this arsenal has already begun, and some of the equipment has already arrived, and this equipment is not imported from the United States. It was made by Chongqing itself.

The Hao Pengju incident, which once triggered a bipartisan crisis, has quietly subsided after more than two months. Hao Pengju was sentenced to 20 years in prison by a military court in Chongqing, and he could only spend his life in prison.

After disposing of Hao Pengju, the training of the puppet army went very smoothly. Officers above the platoon level in the middle and regiment of the puppet army entered the officer Zaozhuang officer teaching team to re-study. The regimental commander and above entered the Shangqiu Senior Military Academy to study, and all the soldiers were scattered and mixed into the 59th Army, which was expanded into the 51st Group Army. Under the jurisdiction of the two armies, the 59th Army and the New 19th Army, the acting commander of the "Group Army" Wang Guobin. Wang Guobin is likely to become the first fifth-term student to serve as the commander of the group army, surpassing many seniors in Huangpu.

Of course, Wang Guobin knows how many pairs of eyes he has to do. After accepting the assignment, he was in a very short time. The 59th Army has set up 20 brigade-level training bases between Yanzhou and Zaozhuang, and has set up six large-scale training bases along the line from Zaozhuang to Yanzhou according to the scale of the division. Wang Guobin also copied the training methods of the First Division of the Northern Expeditionary Army. Weekly for proofreading, he drove his jeep every day, taking people back and forth between the various bases to check.

The villagers near this road have long been familiar with the constant flow of military vehicles, and even the appearance of tank armored vehicles near the village could not surprise them, so this time a string of jeeps came out of the base, and did not attract their attention. In winter, the fields are white and flat, and there are only a few old people carrying bamboo bags on the road, and they will collect horse and donkey dung along the road and pile it up in their own fields.

The snow on the road has been trampled by passing cars and horses, and the quality of the road is not very good, because it is only compacted with mud because of the deadline. The snow was poured and swooped, the mud was turned up from the ground, and the trucks pushed the road out of holes and silted up a pool of water.

Jeep bumps down the road. Zhuang Jihua sat in the back seat wrapped in his coat, and the hood of the jeep had been erected, but the wind was still pouring in from outside. Wu Ziniu was still sitting in the passenger seat as usual, and He Jinhan was sitting next to Zhuang Jihua. Gong Xiuhua did not come with her this time, she stayed in Jinan and kept in touch with Zhou EN.

Negotiations with ** have been going on for more than a month, and after the initial results, the two sides will not budge. A stalemate in the troop formation, equipment, turf down. China insisted on increasing the establishment of two armies, and the territory should be increased to Suiyuan and the western part of Rehe, and Zhuang Jihua proposed to increase the number of armies and exchange the territory of Hebei for Suiyuan, but Rehe was resolutely refused.

Under sī, Zhou En proposed that a coalition of three parties form a joint army to march into the northeast, but Zhuang Jihua did not refuse or agree, which aroused his vigilance, and he guessed that his plan was detected by them. The Northeast is predetermined by him, and it will never be allowed to be **chā.

The negotiations reached an impasse, and Zhuang Jihua simply walked away under the pretext that he wanted to go to Zaozhuang to inspect the work. In this way, he hopes to tell Zhou that he is not afraid of the breakdown of negotiations. I'm not afraid of not cooperating. Not only did he leave Jinan, but He Jinhan also went to Zaozhuang with him.

This trip opened He Zhenhan's eyes, Zhuang Jihua casually ordered a regiment at the Zaozhuang base, and in seven minutes, the whole regiment was pulled to the training ground, and then chōu transferred two companies for tactical confrontation training, and after all the C cuts were completed, he casually chōu a company for field civil engineering exercises, and finally went to the base headquarters, chōu checked several training reports, from company to regiment reports.

Zhuang Jihua's vision is extremely keen, and the omissions in several reports were quickly caught by him" and then he was severely criticized, leaving no mercy for Wang Guobin, but in the end Zhuang Jihua was still satisfied with the whole. In particular, the technical and tactical capabilities demonstrated in confrontation drills.

The training syllabus of the 51 st Group Army this time has been summed up and revised several times, and it is very close to actual combat. From defensive tactics to offensive tactics. In particular, the attack tactics have increased the combination of air and ground, and the combination of infantry and artillery tactical exercises, however. Zhuang Jihua's strictest inspection is still the basic tactics such as four groups and one team, and civil work.

The puppet army units reorganized here are the troops of Sun Liangcheng, Wu Huawen, Pang Bingxun and others, all of whom have walked out of the Northwest Army, and the troops have a certain tradition of the Northwest Army. Combat emphasizes bravery, but the history of the puppet army has made their morale go down a lot, and after this period of ideological education, their morale has recovered.

"Wencao, I think this army is seriously lacking in grassroots officers."

He Zhenhan still had a few doubts in his heart, and he endured it without asking, but now he finally asked.

Zhuang Jihua hummed lightly, the 59th Army split into two armies, and there was naturally a shortage of officers. But he already had a plan in mind.

"Junior officers trained at the military academy will graduate in two months, and they can be assigned to the unit before the chūn festival." Zhuang Jihua explained in a low voice that some of these officers will be eliminated to the localities, and the best performers will return to the army to serve as grassroots officers.

The speed of the build-up was slower than expected, which was good news, and Zhuang Jihua's idea was to launch an attack on the day of Chūn. He didn't want this time to be disturbed by the day himself.

He Jinhan also guessed Zhuang Jihua's method, but he still had doubts: "Wencao, you used to advocate that the commander of the unit should personally train the troops, so that he can be familiar with the troops and soldiers."

"It's no way, it's a stopgap measure." Zhuang Jihua looked out the window, the jeep in winter was very cold, far inferior to the car, but Zhuang Jihua insisted on taking this jeep. At this time, Zhuang Jihua motioned to the driver to stop the car and asked Wu Ziniu to put away the convertible.

"Wencao, this day" Faced with Zhuang Jihua's request, He Zhenhan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but object, Zhuang Jihua smiled faintly: "It's not the same with this or not." It's still just as cold. ”

"Why don't you choose a car?" He Jinhan hesitated for a moment and asked again.

"The biggest thing about a jeep is that you can be seen by the soldiers, which is important for the troops. When soldiers see their commanders, they have faith. Zhuang Jihua said: "I want to choose a car, and they will choose a car in the future." ”

He Jinhan nodded slightly after hearing this, Wu Ziniu and the driver worked together to put away the convertible, Zhuang Jihua's car stopped, and the entire convoy also stopped, it didn't take much time to collect the convertible, but Zhuang Jihua didn't seem to have any intention of getting on the car immediately, but walked along the roadside xiǎo road to a field, squatted down to cut the snow, and lù out the soil below. He grabbed the dirt and sniffed it on the tip of his nose before throwing it down.

"Ruixue is shining in a good year, and next year's days are estimated to be better." He Jinhan walked over and approached Zhuang Jihua, and at this time Wang Guobin also came over.
