"Judging from the layout of the Japanese army, Fengxian County is the arrow, Shanxian County and Peixian County are the two wings, and Yutai and Jinxiang are the backing, echoing and supporting each other, forming a stable triangular offensive and defensive posture. Although the enemy did not aggressively advance the attack on our base area, it was only a matter of time. Chief of Staff Liang Moqing got up and walked to the large map hanging on the wall, and pointed with a whip, "Coupled with the enemies of Xiao County, Su County, and Heze, if they act at the same time, it is obvious that they are besieging posture." Then we will have to divide our forces in all directions to resist the enemy's attack. ”

After a pause, Liang Moqing used the whip to slash at the Huxi area as if he were swinging a knife, "If our army can enter Huxi in a big way before the enemy's strategic deployment is completed, it will not only destroy the enemy's siege attempt, but also insert a steel knife between Heze and Xuzhou." Xiao County will face threats from the south, north, and west, and Heze will be under attack from the south and east of our army. ”

"Therefore, while the enemy's foothold is not stable, our army must move before the enemy and strike first." Liang Moqing put down the whip and said in a deep voice: "The troops participating in the battle are tentatively set as the 25th Division, and the preliminary battle plan is formulated in this way. First ......"

Seeing Yang Tianfeng's gesture, Liang Moqing temporarily stopped, announced a temporary adjournment of the meeting, and had a private discussion with Yang Tianfeng. The battle plan is preliminarily formulated, that is, it is necessary to improve and finalize it at this military meeting, and it is not an exaggeration to make some temporary changes.

Obviously, Yang Tianfeng's thinking has changed, and he is not satisfied with just repelling the enemy, but wants to destroy as much of the enemy's living force as possible. In this way, the number of troops used will be increased, and the direction of the attack will also be changed.

"The enemy in Bengbu has been hit hard, and it is difficult to make a big move in a short period of time, and there is the Eighth Cavalry Division stationed in Longkang, which is basically safe." Yang Tianfeng pointed to the map and said, "Similarly, the enemy in Xiao and Su counties has no signs of strengthening, and it is unlikely that they will attack in the short term. Moreover, there were two divisions, the 26th and 27th divisions, which were sufficient to deal with the threat from the east. Therefore, I am ready to increase my troops, and while recovering the Huxi region, I will deal a heavy blow to the enemy and buy more time for the stabilization of the new area. ”

The original battle plan was to start with the weak and then the strong, starting from Shanxian on the left flank, and striving to eliminate the enemy's reinforcements in Yutai, Jinxiang and Fengxian with the tactics of encircling and sending reinforcements; Then wait for the opportunity to attack Fengxian and Peixian, in order to form a three-way attack on Yutai and Jinxiang.

This kind of operation has its own advantages, and it is relatively stable, and it can rely on local superiority in strength to break through one by one. But being steady means being conservative, which means that the enemy has a way back, and it is easy to defeat, but it is difficult to annihilate them all.

Liang Moqing quickly understood what Yang Tianfeng meant, that is: put aside stability, adopt a more aggressive combat strategy, try to cut off the enemy's retreat, and gather and annihilate him.

"Adding a brigade is not necessarily a sure thing to do." Liang Moqing cautiously put forward his opinion, "The main force must fight deeply to cut off the enemy's retreat, not only to guard against the attack of the enemy in Yutai and Fengxian on the east side, but also to be careful of the enemy's movements in Heze in the west. ”

"What if the garrison brigade is pulled up as well?" Yang Tianfeng was a little stubborn, stretched out his hand and drew an arc on the map, "While the main force is interspersed in depth, the two brigades can not only protect the two wings, but also wait for the opportunity to ambush the reinforcing enemy. ”

Liang Moqing thought for a while and said: "The key lies in how the main force can move quickly in the enemy-occupied area, the enemy's aircraft reconnaissance is very powerful, and if our army only operates at night, the time is rushed and there are many variables. ”

Yang Tianfeng frowned slightly, Liang Moqing's worries were not superfluous, the 25th Division, with nearly 20,000 horses, wanted to avoid the enemy's reconnaissance and eyes and ears, and directly smashed Yutai and captured it, so as to cut off the enemy's retreat in the three counties of Shan, Feng, and Pei, and complete the deployment of the annihilation battle, it was indeed difficult.

Of course, Liang Moqing understood Yang Tianfeng's painstaking efforts to change the battle plan, and if he could annihilate the enemy in the Huxi area at once, or even inflict heavy losses, it would also open up the situation in Huxi. But no matter how you look at it, Yang Tianfeng seems to be a little too eager and too anxious.

After a long period of thought and silence, Liang Moqing said tentatively: "Commander, after the recovery of the Huxi region, didn't you formulate corresponding strategies and tactics, hoping that the troops stationed there would temporarily learn the fighting style of the Eighth Route Army and carry out flexible and mobile anti-sweeping operations without any bottles and cans?" Moreover, this will also be the main tactic of the guerrilla zone in the future. If that's the case, I don't think there's a big appetite, it's better to take a long-term view. ”

Yang Tianfeng sighed secretly in his heart, Liang Moqing's words were correct, with sufficient troops, he was indeed a little too anxious.

However, Liang Moqing's words just now reminded Yang Tianfeng that it is feasible to learn the fighting style of the Eighth Route Army, or disguise himself as the Eighth Route Army to confuse the enemy and induce him to move?

Listening to Yang Tianfeng's new idea, Liang Moqing thought for a while and said, "This is very likely to be successful. Judging from the enemy's garrison, it is obvious that they are also afraid of our blows, and do not dare to divide their forces too much. Although the enemy occupied the county seat and several large towns, it had not yet established a firm rule in the countryside, and the defense in many areas was weak. I think it is feasible to take a limit of 3,500 people, break it into pieces, disperse and infiltrate the enemy's weak points, and then change it from zero to whole. ”

"Three or five thousand people, that is, a brigade." Yang Tianfeng nodded and said, "Although it is necessary to be as light as possible, the eighty-two and sixty-zero mortars can be carried." It is relatively safe to have such a force operating in the heart of the enemy, causing changes in the enemy's deployment, and creating an opportunity for a war of annihilation for a large force. Yes, I was a little anxious just now, but I was a little out of speed. Had it not been for my resourceful chief of staff, the military operation would have been frustrated. ”

"It's that serious." Liang Moqing shook his head and said humbly: "According to the strength of our army, it is even more impossible to defeat it, and I hope that we can solve the enemy in Huxi more quickly and achieve a big victory!" ”

Yang Tianfeng laughed and waved his hand again and again, "Right is right, wrong is wrong, my chief of staff, don't be too modest." Now that the general policy has been decided, let's reconvene and discuss it carefully! ”

"War is a monster where people kill each other for some kind of benefit. However, different wars have different meanings and impacts, and they also provide different references and warnings for future generations. However, the wars between China and Japan that took place in the thirties and forties of the twentieth century will be unprecedented in Chinese history. Yu and others are convinced that this war will also be the first time that the Chinese nation will appear before the judges of history as a victor......"

“…… In order to win victory in the national anti-aggression war, it is undoubtedly necessary to first rely on the military and people of the country, and this is the source and foundation of victory. However, this war is different from the national self-defense wars that have occurred in history, such as the Sino-Japanese War and the Sino-British Opium War. From the very beginning, the war was international in nature, and it attracted the attention of the international community, and it received the support and assistance of many internationalists. As the war progresses and with the great release of the wolf-like personality of the Japanese invading army, it is bound to receive more and more international aid and support. ”

"Phoenix Nirvana, reborn from the ashes, this cruel war imposed on us will also awaken the national consciousness of the whole nation in China and form an unprecedented unity. There is no doubt that the war against Japan will be won, and victory will certainly put an end to the history of repeated defeats and humiliations suffered by the Chinese people in modern times against imperialist aggression, enhance China's international status, enhance the national self-esteem and self-confidence of the Chinese people, and become a major turning point for the Chinese nation from decline to rejuvenation, laying the foundation for national independence and national liberation......

“…… Strength is not preserved, but fought in battle, tempered by bloody battles, a hundred experienced and experienced warriors, like thousands, thousands of new soldiers who tremble when they hear the sound of gunfire, each with their own thoughts, this is the lesson and experience of Yu and the Japanese in many bloody battles with the Japanese invaders......"

A good article is a fragrant and bitter green tea that makes people savor it. A good article is an oil painting with a profound artistic conception, which makes people marvel. A good article is a clarion call and history, which is progressive and thought-provoking.

The drafts written by Yang Tianfeng, edited and revised by Zhao Yurou, and the articles published under the pseudonyms "Jing Lei" and "Roufeng" were not only published in the tabloids in the base areas, but also continuously published in the "Guangming Daily" and "National Salvation Daily" in the rear area, and turned into columns.

Then, with the help of the research and opinions of later generations, "Thunder" and "Soft Wind" seem to be senior critics and strategic and tactical analysts. He has made a sophisticated analysis and commentary on several battles of the Sino-Japanese War, including the Songhu War of Resistance, the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Battle of Wuhan, and the Battle of Nanjing.

At the same time, Yang Tianfeng also expounded in detail the advantages and disadvantages of the Chinese and Japanese armies and their operational characteristics, and put forward many methods of making up for their clumsiness, and making up for their weaknesses with their strengths. In particular, it stated the harm caused by the national army in grasping strong men and filling the army, as well as the major defects of many armed forces in which the training time is too short and the ideological education is insufficient.

Of course, Yang Tianfeng also criticized the various departments of the Kuomintang Army for being divided into factions, fighting separately, and rarely uniting sincerely and fighting together, so that they were broken by the Japanese army. He also pointed out that many high-ranking generals of the national army are dull in their thinking, their tactics are monotonous, and although they are enthusiastic, they have not destroyed the enemy and die first. In particular, the major battles were heroic, but unfortunately they could not stop the iron hooves of the Japanese invaders from moving south and west.

At the beginning, Yang Tianfeng only wanted to boost the will of the Chinese people to resist the war and improve the struggle methods of the anti-Japanese armed forces, but later, he received letters from Zhao Yurou from time to time, in which he raised many doubts or debated and disputed with him. Yang Tianfeng suddenly woke up and said: Even a highly educated person like Zhao Yurou can't understand many issues in the Sino-Japanese war, let alone those ordinary people. They will definitely be confused by the politics, theories, and wars that they don't understand.

During the period of resistance against Japan, the confusion of the people's thinking was indeed very serious, and the confusion of thinking caused the division and even contradiction of national cohesion. I am most afraid that at the extraordinary moment when we should be unanimous with the outside world, ideological confusion and contradictions can make the country vulnerable, and the chaos of the Kuomintang government during the Anti-Japanese War is a good illustration. In particular, after Wang Jingwei's surrender, he was the vice president of the Kuomintang, and he had a certain appeal, and his theory of "peaceful nation-building" was also quite able to confuse some people.

In Japan, on the other hand, during the war of aggression against China, Japanese militarism carried out a "general mobilization of the literary circles," and with the exception of a very few people, the vast majority of Japanese writers actively "cooperated" in the war of aggression against China. Some of them went to the front line of China as "military writers" to wave the flag and shout for the war of aggression against China; Some were conscripted into the army and became part of the invading army; More and more people joined various militarist cultural and literary organizations, using the pen as a gun to concoct so-called "war literature" to fuel the war of aggression against China.

These Japanese literati may have incited the people's war fanaticism and described the war of aggression against China as a "holy war"; or impose war responsibilities on China and argue for a war of aggression against China; or poetize and beautify the brutality of the Japanese army, and write the "loveliness" and "bravery" of the "Imperial Army"; or vilify the Chinese people, and exaggerate how ignorant and barbaric China and the Chinese are; or distort the description of the situation in the occupied areas, and talk nonsense about how the Chinese people and the "imperial army" are "friendly"; or to carry out enslavement education and deception propaganda for the people in the occupied areas......

This is what Japanese writers who were active in the war of aggression against China did. At that time, the propaganda machine of Japanese militarism called the writers sent to the front line of aggression to serve in the army as "pen troops."

In the war of aggression against China, the "pen troops" and the "gun troops" (armed forces) formed a militaristic wartime system in which the upper and lower levels echoed, "the government and the people are unanimous", soft and hard butcher knives, and both civil and military.

The "pen troops" and the concoctors of the literature of Japan's aggression against China were the instigators and advocates of the war of aggression against China, the main body of the so-called "ideological warfare" and "ideological propaganda warfare," and the main force of Japan's cultural aggression and infiltration into China, which played an irreplaceable role in the "gun force" in the war of aggression against China.

More importantly, the literature of aggression against China is not only an ironclad proof of the history of aggression against China left by Japanese militarism, but also an important carrier of Japanese militarist thought. The so-called "war spirit" and "military spirit" of Japanese militarism are contained in it, and the Japanese people's ideological "concept" of aggression against China and their fanatical sentiment of aggression against China are contained in it.

Gun to gun, pen to pen, both material and spiritual, both hands must be grasped, and both hands must be hard, which is the main reason why Yang Tianfeng has always taken time out to make "Thunder" and "Soft Wind" continue to launch new articles. Not only that, Yang Tianfeng also sent people to collect and sort out the bad deeds of the Japanese devils, and from time to time to publicize and agitate the military and civilians in the base areas.

Yang Tianfeng is busy, bitter, tired! But forced work is not the same as self-directed work, and what Yang Tianfeng didn't expect was that he unconsciously put himself in the middle of increasingly heavy work. That's why with great power comes great responsibility! (To be continued.) )
