The Yan'an side soon received a note from the Nationalist Government, which expressed the hope that the two parties would hold a high-level meeting in the near future, and that the venue could be set by the Yan'an side, but the time must be less than a week. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Nationalist Government's request for talks was very sudden, which frightened the Yan'an side, and the vast majority of people thought that Lao Chiang had taken advantage of the fire to rob him, and even many people thought that the Party Central Committee should refuse to negotiate with the Kuomintang.

Because they were very passive in the talks at this time, if they wanted to talk, they could talk, and the Nationalist Government had to hold back the main force of the Japanese army in the south, otherwise the two sides would have nothing to talk about now.

However, after a brief contact, the Yan'an side confirmed that the Nationalist Government was indeed very sincere, and it seemed that it was ready to negotiate with them on the distribution of benefits. After all, Ma Zheng's troops were moving too quickly in North China, and judging from the current situation, the collapse of Okamura Ningji's North China Front was inevitable.

After the North China Front Army is wiped out, it will leave a large piece of territory, and if the Nationalist Government is willing to be occupied by the Eighth Route Army in this way, it will be called a ghost. Moreover, although the war in North China has achieved a certain victory, there is still a considerable distance from complete victory, so the anti-Japanese national united front must still be maintained, so the chairman decided that the two sides will hold talks in Yan'an, and the time will be determined by the Nationalist Government.

After receiving Yan'an's reply, the Nationalist Government immediately sent a delegation headed by He Yingqin to Yan'an by plane. After learning that the Nationalist Government had sent Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin out, Yan'an immediately asked Vice Chairman Zhou and Commander-in-Chief Zhu to form their own negotiation delegation.

At 10:40 on October 10, 1941, He Yingqin and his entourage arrived in Yan'an by special plane, and Vice Chairman Zhou and others went to the airport to greet the delegation of the Nationalist Government.

He Yingqin knew that the situation was urgent, and the attitude of the Yan'an side directly determined whether the more than 1 million Kuomintang troops on the Wuhan front line would fight or withdraw, so He Yingqin asked the Yan'an side to immediately enter the state of talks.

The chairman and others were also well aware of the situation facing the two sides, and the attitude of the Nationalist Government was directly related to whether the more than 60,000 troops of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army would go north or continue to stay in Henan, so the chairman and others were also very anxious, so they quickly agreed to the request of the delegation of the Nationalist Government, and the two sides immediately held the first round of talks after lunch.

Ma Zheng was overjoyed when he learned that the Nationalist Government was going to hold talks with the Eighth Route Army of Yan'an, and he knew very well what this meant, if the previous Nationalist Government was to be put aside, they would definitely not hold talks with Yan'an.

Now that Lao Chiang took the initiative to send his right-hand man He Yingqin to negotiate with the Party Central Committee, it can only show that the current strength of the Yan'an side has been recognized by Lao Chiang, and the Nationalist Government does not dare to make a complete break with the Yan'an side.

This is undoubtedly good for the country and the nation, at least a tragedy such as the Southern Anhui Incident in history is impossible to happen again, after all, even a high-ranking figure like He Yingqin has to go to Yan'an, who dares to find trouble.

Ma Zheng himself has a game of chess in his heart, he only talked about half of it with the chairman before, and the rest of Ma Zheng didn't say it, and now since the great Chairman Jiang took the initiative to send it to the door, then Ma Zheng is not polite.

Immediately, Ma Zheng sent a telegram to the party Central Committee in the name of the commander of the Suicha Military Region and secretary of the Northern Bureau, suggesting that the party Central Committee should not care about the immediate interests, that everything should be based on the overall situation, that certain concessions could be made between the territories, and that all the territory of Hebei except for eastern Hebei should be ceded to the Nationalist Government, including the Beijing-Tianjin region, but the area north of Zhangjiakou should never be ceded to the Nationalist Government.

In addition, the Party Central Committee can try to negotiate with Yan Xishan, and exchange Shanxi's territory for its control in the Guisui region, although the Jin Suijun is claimed to be the Jin Suijun, but as long as a discerning person knows that Yan Xishan still cares about the interests of the Shanxi region, and its ruling center is still in Shanxi.

Now the Suicha Military Region has occupied almost half of the northwestern part of Shanxi, and even the important town of Zhangjiakou is under the control of Ma Zheng's subordinates, so as long as Ma Zheng's subordinates are willing, Yan Xishan will definitely exchange the control of Guisui for the complete ruling power of Shanxi.

However, it depends on whether the national government is willing to cooperate, after all, the current Suixi is under the control of Fu Yisheng's Eighth War Zone, and Yan Laoxi is beyond the control of this whip. But now that the Nationalist Government has taken the initiative to negotiate, there is still a good hope that the two sides of you will reach a consensus.

After the telegram was sent, Ma Zheng did not pay any attention to the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and this was the time when it was appropriate for the remaining Yong to chase after the poor and the poor, and if the success fell short at this time, then the so-called Kuomintang-Communist talks would soon end without a hitch.

Ma Zheng soon ordered the headquarters to move forward, and on October 11, he met with Commander Nie of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region on the Zhulu Front, and the two military regions held talks about the next battle.

As a result of the talks, from now on, the Suicha Military Region will only be responsible for moving forward, and all the territory that has been laid down in the rear will be defended and digested by the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the captured spoils will be 6 or 4 percent for the two military regions, with the Suicha Military Region receiving 60 percent and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region receiving 40 percent.

On the same day, Ma Zheng issued an order to increase the number of troops in the Suicha Military Region, and the remaining troops of the entire military region immediately moved south to assemble in Zhangjiakou in addition to the necessary defensive forces. In addition, the reorganized 6th and 7th divisions immediately marched east to eastern Hebei and joined up with Tie Xinlan's headquarters to jointly defend eastern Hebei to prevent the Japanese Kwantung Army from moving south.

Then, Ma Zheng ordered all the troops on the front line to immediately launch an attack on the enemy in front of them, especially the integrated 4th and 5th divisions stationed on the Shimen line, which could selectively advance in the direction of Hengshui.

Just when the units of the Suicha Military Region were preparing to show their skills, the Japanese Third Army finally completed its assembly, and took a train directly from Shenyang to Shanhaiguan, preparing to go south to eastern Hebei through Shanhaiguan.

However, the Third Army ran into trouble as soon as it left Shenyang, and the military train they were riding on was bombed by a mysterious unit on a small bridge in Haoyanggou, and under the attack of a large number of explosives, the small bridge in Haoyanggou turned into a piece of rubble in an instant, and also overturned a military column, and a large number of soldiers were injured in varying degrees and suffered considerable losses.

The most important thing is that after this bomb attack, the Japanese army's plan to fight south by train can almost be said to be completely aborted. It seems that the plan of the army to fight south can still be carried out, but it must be advanced on foot with all the troops.

However, in this way, the fastest speed from Shenyang to eastern Hebei will take a week and a half, and it will not be able to quench the thirst at all.

It was none other than Ma Zheng's special combat team that sabotaged the Japanese Third Army's southward operation. In order to fan the flames, but also to support Huang Haitao's subordinates, Ma Zheng transferred a complete special operations team to the northeast to fight.

And this special operations brigade did not disappoint Ma Zheng, and was greatly challenged and tempered after entering the Northeast. Due to the harsh natural conditions in the northeast region and the small population, the Flying Dragons special combat team, which was overwhelmingly southerners, suffered a lot of losses when it first entered the northeast, and almost one-third of its strength was lost in the first few operations.

But Tie Niu is an apprentice taught by Ma Zheng himself, and he is also the first captain of the special combat team, and he has a deep understanding of special operations Tie Niu, so he quickly summed up his experience and innovated tactics. Repeatedly broke through in battles with the Kwantung Army, and finally gained a firm foothold in the northeast.

With their cooperation, the infantry brigade that Huang Haitao brought to the northeast has expanded nearly three times more than when he first arrived, and in terms of numbers, it is far more than the vast majority of infantry divisions in the Suicha Military Region.

Moreover, the soldiers created by the harsh environment in the northeast region are also all good men with iron bones, and in terms of combat effectiveness, they are far stronger than those recruit divisions of the Suicha Military Region.

After learning that the Japanese Third Army was rapidly assembling, Huang Haitao was keenly aware that the Kwantung Army was likely to enter the pass, so after obtaining Ma Desheng's consent, Huang Haitao's unit fought three major victories in the eastern grasslands, completely annihilating an infantry brigade of the Kwantung Army, and also sent special combat teams to attack everywhere. It even attacked the poison gas research and development base of Unit 731 of the Kwantung Army, and although this military operation failed, it caused a huge shock to the Japanese army.

Several other squads of the special combat team also attacked frequently, making half of the Northeast uneasy in a very short period of time. It can be said that the Northeast region is now full of smoke, although this cannot shake the foundation of the Japanese puppet army's rule in the Northeast, but it can greatly mobilize the Kwantung Army and contain its troops.
