Chapter 675 Qinglong Collection

"Pull the soul cavity, pull the soul cavity, I'm not afraid that you won't come, I'm afraid that I won't sing."

"Flower drum opera is difficult to learn, difficult to sing, and difficult to hear, after listening to it for three days, it is not easy to be hooked"

In this place of Huaibei, Huaibei Bangzi, Sizhou opera, Huaibei flower drum opera, Huaibei drum, Huaibei qin book are popular.

After the Laba Festival, the small Qinglongji at the junction of Henan and Anhui ushered in the Eighth Route Army from the southeast of Shandong. Peng Xuefeng, military director of the Central Plains Bureau and commander and political commissar of the guerrilla detachment of the New Fourth Army, who was operating in the Yongcheng area, also led his troops to this place to join Liu Yimin, the head instructor of the Eighth Route Army, who was heading south.

Now, the Qinglong Gathering is lively, the cold night becomes like the New Year, several temples in the town have set up stages, and several local dramas are staged at the same time, and the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army and the villagers under the stage are drunk.

This Qinglongji is located at the junction of Yongcheng, Xiaoxian and Suixi, and the administrative division belongs to the jurisdiction of Yongcheng at this time. During the Republic of China, Qinglongji is a famous leather market, the leather merchants from the south to the north take trains, catch carriages, transport raw materials, transport away finished products, the small Qinglongji was also very beautiful.

Legend has it that there is a green dragon lying underground here, every agricultural time, the green dragon rains, and the five grains are abundant. One day, Zhu Yuanzhang's military advisor Liu Baiwen passed by here, saying that this is a treasure land of feng shui, and there will be a true dragon in the future, and there will be seventy-two generals to protect the dragon. Liu Bowen immediately sent people to dig 72 wells and build eight temples such as the fire god and the earth temple to suppress the green dragon. Since then, the "true dragon son of heaven" is not allowed to go out, the green dragon is not allowed to turn over, and the seventy-two generals are also reincarnated as seventy-two gardeners, opening the garden to grow vegetables, so there is no shortage of vegetables here all year round, and it naturally forms a bazaar, so it is named "Qinglong set".

Since the fire array outside Tai'an City inflicted heavy damage on the Japanese army, Liu Yimin returned to Dabaiyu with the special operations team through the tunnel. Wang Tongsheng, who was in charge of fire support, took advantage of the chaos of the Japanese army to fire poison gas bombs at the Japanese camp, and withdrew after the fighting. As for the final result, Liu Yimin is not clear, and Wang Tongsheng is not clear.

After returning to Dabaiyu, Liu Yimin led the Special Operations Command to the south by car, arrived in Yanzhou, and joined Zhao Jie, the commander of the New Eighth Brigade.

When he arrived in Yanzhou, Zhao Jie led the cadres to greet him at the gate of the city.

Liu Yimin's movement outside Tai'an City was too big, and a faint explosion could be heard in Yanzhou City, and the fire in the night sky in the direction of Tai'an in the north could be seen from a distance.

Seeing Liu Yimin's safe return, Zhao Jie's excited eyes were full of tears, and he held Liu Yimin's hand and said that the teacher was too risky, and he must not do this in the future.

When Wang Laohu heard Zhao Jie say this, he pouted and said, "I said Brigade Commander Zhao, who are you as the division commander?" It was the little devil's god of killing, and when the little devil saw the teacher, it was too late to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy. Do they still want to hurt the division commander? Dream on, I'll tell you, this time we made a big fuss, you don't know how spectacular it is when the little devil ammunition truck, gasoline car, tank, armored car explodes. The whole car was blown up into the sky, you didn't go, but you missed the Western view. ”

Wang Laohu wanted to say more, but Wang Tongsheng stopped him and said coldly: "Brigade Commander Zhao is right, the division commander did take a risk tonight. If the political commissar or Director Cai is there, it is absolutely not allowed. Let's wait for a few to write and check."

Wang Laohu's neck twisted: "What kind of check is written?" After making such a big feat, you still have to write a check? Does that make sense? ”

Wang Laohu said it very well, but it turned out that Wang Tongsheng was right. After returning to the headquarters of the New Eighth Brigade, as soon as Li Lingfeng reported the results of the battle to the division headquarters that had returned to Dadian, Luo Ronghuan's telegram arrived, ordering Zhao Jie, Li Lingfeng, Wang Tongsheng, and Wang Laohu to write an inspection and ask them to profoundly review the mistake of lax discipline and supervision of the No. 1 leader, which made Wang Laohu's face ashen and he no longer dared to boast of his military exploits.

In Yanzhou, Liu Yimin received news of the collapse of the Japanese Konoe cabinet.

Liu Yimin thought about it, it seems that in history, the Konoe Bunma cabinet collapsed at the beginning of January, and now it seems that the collapse is a little late. After thinking about it again, I was relieved, Konoe Fumima was an invasion of China from his bones, and he resigned now, probably because he was exhausted from fighting with the military department and couldn't do it anymore. However, this old devil belongs to the hardliners who invaded China, and his political career is far from over, and it will not be long before the Japanese army will bring him out to form a cabinet.

Either way, the fall of the Konoe cabinet is always a good thing. This kind of good thing is unjustifiable without a show and a show.

Liu Yimin wrote "I Look at the Collapse of the Konoe Cabinet", which began with the words: "The collapse of the Konoe Cabinet is a good thing for the Chinese people who have suffered aggression. It shows that the Japanese Government, which launched the war of aggression, has fallen into internal and external difficulties and cannot continue in the midst of the protests and scolding of the people of the world, the rise up of the Chinese people, and the loss of the Japanese army. ”

Next, Liu Yimin counted the criminal deeds committed by Konoe Wenma, from the Lugou Bridge incident to the capture of Wuhan, and vividly exposed the heavy losses caused to the Chinese people by Konoe Wenma's policy of aggression against China.

After exposing the crimes of Konoe Fumima, Liu Yimin analyzed the deep-seated reasons that led to the collapse of the Konoe cabinet from the political, economic, and military aspects. In Liu Yimin's view, the most fundamental reason why Konoe Funma could not continue was that the Japanese army's policy of aggression against China failed, and the Japanese army that invaded China fell into a quagmire, which led to many contradictions within the Japanese government. For example, there will be serious contradictions between the Konoe Fumima cabinet and the military department, and between Konoe Fumima and Emperor Hirohito. For example, if the Japanese army wants to expand the scale of the war, it has to ask the government to provide money, equipment and personnel, but the current situation is that Japan's domestic national economy has developed abnormally, with inflation, declining people's incomes, and an increase in the cost of living. The Japanese government, which had no money to eat, had nothing to do with its military expenditures, and desperately hoped to plunder resources from China to supplement its war needs. However, China had no oil or rubber, and its iron and steel and copper resources were very poor, and it could not meet the needs of the Japanese army in the war, so the Japanese government had no choice but to take out its gold reserves and foreign exchange reserves to buy them in the international market. After a long period of time, we will inevitably face a situation in which our gold reserves will be depleted and our foreign exchange reserves will be exhausted, and contradictions between the government and the military will inevitably erupt.

After analyzing the deep-seated reasons for the collapse of the Konoe cabinet, Liu Yimin finally wrote: "Konoe Bunma has stepped down, leaving behind a mess. Whoever takes over as prime minister of the Japanese cabinet will not have a good time. Unless they abandon their policy of aggression against China, change their ways, completely withdraw their troops from Chinese territory, and compensate for war losses. Otherwise, the Japanese army will always be mired in the quagmire of the war of aggression against China, and whoever forms a cabinet will still collapse. I dare to assert that none of Konoe's successors will be able to do it for a year. Even if Konoe Fumima reorganizes the cabinet, he can't hold out for long. ”

Liu Yimin did not expect that his prediction was unfortunately turned on, and Japanese politicians said that it was Liu Yimin's curse.

After writing this article, Liu Yimin confessed to Zhao Jie that the blockade had been completed, and the next thing was to attack and harass and delay, and not to fight to the death with the Japanese army. After the main force broke through the Longhai Road, the New Eighth Brigade temporarily turned to the Lunan Mountains, rested and replenished, and waited for further orders.

After the explanation, Liu Yimin led the 1st Guard Battalion and the Special Operations Command to the south overnight to chase the main force.

Liu Yimin did not know that in the past two days, after discussions, the Japanese army base camp decided to comprehensively implement the policy of aggression against China put forward by the collapsed Konoe cabinet and adjusted its military strategy. First, abandon the strategy of quick victory and prepare for long-term operations. Second, it is clearly stipulated that military operations should serve political and strategic work. Third, limit the scale and intensity of the war in order to reduce attrition. In terms of the scope of operations, "we will not attempt to expand the occupied areas unless there is a major need" and "we will vigorously refrain from expanding the front for which we are not prepared"; In terms of troop strength, "in order to prepare for future changes in the international situation, it is necessary to reduce the number of troops stationed in the cantonment and the consumption of troops in all aspects"; In the form of combat, "small contact" is only "when the enemy concentrates his forces to attack, he will counterattack in time and consume his combat effectiveness." Fourth, the focus of military strikes should be shifted to dealing with anti-Japanese guerrilla warfare in the rear, and at present, we should concentrate all our efforts on eliminating the instructors of the Eighth Route Army in Shandong and stabilizing the public order situation in the occupied areas of North China.

Liu Yimin waved his hand and walked away in the night and on the light snow, but Lieutenant General Iida Shojiro, the commander of the Japanese Guards Division in Tai'an City, was like crazy, making a lot of noise in the headquarters.

After finally venting, Iida Shojiro sat down in his chair dejectedly and said to the chief of staff: "Send a report to the North China Front Army and the base camp that our division was attacked by the elite small units of the Eighth Route Army, and all the convoys of the division's baggage and heavy wings were destroyed, and all ammunition and fuel were destroyed. The special smoke made by the Great Japanese Empire caused a large number of soldiers in the division to be poisoned, and more than one-fifth of the casualties were lost. Armored brigade combat vehicles suffered heavy losses and were in dire need of replenishment. Otherwise, the vehicles of our division will be unusable due to lack of fuel, and the mechanized division will turn into an infantry division. ”

After receiving the report from Iida Shojiro, Sugi Sugimoto was taken aback, doesn't this mean that the Guards Division and the Armored Brigade have lost the ability to fight continuously within two days?

Shanshanyuan did not dare to slack off, and on the one hand, he strictly ordered the logistics and baggage departments to hurry up the delivery of oil and ammunition to the Guards Division, and on the other hand, he strictly ordered all units to allocate enough troops to protect the lines of communication and strictly prevent the sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army.

On the morning of the next day, the Japanese frontal attack on the divisions and regiments did not launch an attack because they suffered heavy losses in the sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army, but only sent cavalry units to reconnoiter the front line of Qufu, Surabaya, Yanzhou, and Jining. Only the 1st, 2nd, and 23rd Divisions, which served as roundabouts, advanced rapidly and captured Ningyang.

At this time, Shanshanyuan knew that Ningyang was an empty city, and what Liu Yimin said about fighting with the Japanese army on both sides of the Wen River was purely to make fun of Shanshanyuan. In this way, the Japanese army acted more cautiously. Because they lost their target, the main force of the Eighth Route Army was once again nowhere to be found.

Finding the main force of the Eighth Route Army means that danger may occur anytime and anywhere, which is the conclusion that Shanshan Yuan came to after the Battle of Taixi.

On the night of the end of the Battle of Taixi, the 10,000 puppet Manchurian Defense Army on the southern front of the Japanese army, which was responsible for the defense from Xuzhou to Yanzhou, received an order from the commander of the 12th Army, Iida Sadagu, and quickly retreated to Xuzhou to strengthen the Xuzhou defense line.

Iida Zhengu also had no choice, the Eighth Route Army wiped out the 14th Division, the 35th Division and the 13th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade in one battle, completely frightened his dog guts, for fear that the main force of the Eighth Route Army would wave its troops south and besiege Xuzhou. If Xuzhou City was captured by the Eighth Route Army, then his end would not be better than that of Otaka Kamizo and Gu Shoufu. Therefore, he violated the common sense of warfare, and did not let the 10,000 Manchurian defense troops stick to Tengxian and Zaozhuang, but ordered them to quickly shrink back to Xuzhou to deploy defenses and strengthen the Xuzhou defense line.

In this way, there will be no regular troops of the Japanese puppet army in the entire Lunan, and Shanshanyuan will not be able to get accurate information on the southward movement of the main force of the Eighth Route Army. Only the 38th Division in southwest Lu reported that in the process of concentrating on Longhai Road, they found signs of small units of the Eighth Route Army moving to southwest Lu.

It wasn't until the evening of the 24th that Shanshan Yuan received a report from Iida Sadagu that the main force of the Eighth Route Army was moving south and was sweeping the periphery of Xuzhou, and judged that the Eighth Route Army was going to capture Xuzhou.

Originally, inducing the main force of the Eighth Route Army to besiege Xuzhou was the established battle plan of the Japanese base camp. Using Xuzhou as bait, luring Liu Yimin to take the bait, and then concentrating the main force of the northern front to quickly go south, finishing his work in one battle, gathering and annihilating the main force of the Eighth Route Army under the city of Xuzhou, and completely solving the problem of public security in Shandong, is a conspiracy carefully studied and planned by the Japanese army base camp. However, when he really found out that the Eighth Route Army was going to besiege Xuzhou, Shanshanyuan panicked. Because he didn't know whether the defenders of Xuzhou could hold Xuzhou, but don't be like Jinan City, he originally thought that the city fortifications were strong and it would be no problem to hold on for three to five days, but he was broken by the Eighth Route Army overnight. If something like that happens again, Shanshan Yuan estimated in his heart that he might really have to report to ****.

The panicked Shanshan Yuan strictly ordered Iida Sadagu to shrink his forces and resolutely hold on to Xuzhou. After dawn, the aviation was ordered to make a big sortie to cover the pursuit of the main force south.

For the sake of safety, Shanshanyuan ordered the 6th Division and the 5th Division, which had arrived in Tai'an, to quickly dispatch, together with the 1st Division, the 2nd Division, and the 23rd Division, under the command of Lieutenant General Naosaburo Gangbe, the commander of the 1st Division, to march together and quickly advance towards Xuzhou. The 41st Division, which remained on the Deshi Road, was transferred to take over Xuzhou, and the 16th Division was ordered to move south quickly as a reserve for the pursuit group. Ordered the Guards Division and the Armored Brigade to be stationed in Tai'an, waiting for replenishment, and to serve as the defense between Tai'an, Yanzhou, and Tengxian.

Shanshanyuan thought that he had arranged it tightly, but he didn't know that what Liu Yimin wanted was this effect, so that the Japanese army could divide the troops, divide the troops, and then divide the troops. Now, the elite Guards divisions and armored brigades have been reduced to the garrison of the line of communication. The Japanese defenders in Cangxian and Dexian were also weakened, and Shanshanyuan was waiting to cry

The Japanese army attacked on a large scale, and the New Eighth Brigade, which was responsible for the task of being the rear of the palace, was ordered by Liu Yimin to abandon the frontal attack and switch to flank attack and harass operations. It is equivalent to letting the main force of the Japanese army rush to Xuzhou.

The current situation is exactly the same as that of the Taixi Campaign, in which the blocking troops of the Eighth Route Army gave up frontal blockade, but small units launched flank attacks in batches to harass operations, fired a shot, got a little cheap and left, and never confronted the main force of the Japanese army. In this way, Shanshanyuan's suspicion increased, for fear that Liu Yimin would lead the main force of the instructor to wait somewhere in front to fight the ambush of the Japanese army, but he would no longer be able to withstand such a blow. Therefore, the telegram sent by the North China Front Army to Gangbu Naosaburo is very strange, on the one hand, it ordered a rapid advance, reinforced Xuzhou, and encircled the main force of the Eighth Route Army under the city of Xuzhou; On the other hand, he ordered Naosaburo Gangbe to strictly enforce the ban on fighting with the instructor formulated by General Terauchi Shouichi, attack and advance during the day, and camp at night to strictly prevent the attack of the Eighth Road.

It's not bad, from Tai'an to Xuzhou, the Japanese army is generally very safe on the way, and Liu Yimin did not ambush them. When the main force of the Japanese army arrived at the periphery of Xuzhou in two days, the Eighth Route Army besieging the city actually concentrated its firepower and troops, broke through the weakly defended Longhai Road on the east and west flanks of Xuzhou, and rushed to northern Jiangsu and the Henan-Anhui Soviet border area.

At this time, Shanshan Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately couldn't wait to announce that the North China Public Security War had achieved an unprecedented victory, and the main force of the imperial army successfully recovered the lost ground in Jinan, Jiaoji Road and Jinpu Road after fierce battles. Under the pursuit of the main force of the imperial army, the troops of the Eighth Route Army were crushed and fled in embarrassment.

This time, the Japanese army used the leading figures of the pen unit to make the article the same as the real thing. The beautiful writer of the Elephant Pen Army, Fumiko Hayashi, began to write her war notes again, which were serialized in newspapers and magazines.

This Lin Fumiko is indeed a bit of a weird, and her level of making up lies is very high. In order to better declare the military might of His Majesty the Emperor and the Japanese Empire, the Guards Division stayed in Tai'an, Yanzhou, Tengxian and other places, on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, to comfort the Chinese people who were poisoned by the Eighth Route Army.

Look at how beautiful Fumiko Hayashi wrote: "Last night, there were snowflakes in the sky. When I got up in the morning, I opened the window and saw that Mount Tai was covered in silver and became a snow-capped mountain. The air is so fresh, my nose has a faint earthy smell, and I feel that Tai'an is so beautiful.

Breakfast was served at a restaurant in Taean City, with pancake rolls and green onion dipping sauce, as well as millet porridge, bean curd, tea and eggs. The man who sold breakfast told me that when the imperial army was there, they sold breakfast in the morning, and after selling breakfast, they went to extract oil, and lived a rich and leisurely life. Since Liu Yimin's troops of the Eighth Route Army occupied Tai'an, his breakfast stall could not be opened. Because Tubalu ostensibly says that the trade is fair, and does not take a stitch from the masses. In fact, those soldiers had a large amount of food, and the money was given, but they always found fault after the meal, either because the bowl was too full of snacks, or because the quality of the food was not good, so they had to be forced to return the money. What's more, the dirt road collects taxes at every turn. A soldier stood in front of the breakfast stall and stretched out his hand to ask for the tax. As soon as this one was sent away, the next one came. can't be provoked or hidden, so the breakfast stall has to be closed. Now that the Imperial Army is back, we can finally do business in peace.

After breakfast, Lieutenant General Shojiro Iida was going to visit a merchant family and asked me to accompany him. The general told me that the Guards Division was the guard unit of His Majesty the Emperor, the Imperial Forest Army as the Chinese said. The reason why the commander of the North China Front, General Shanshan Yuan, ordered the elite guards division to stay in Tai'an was to let China know that His Majesty the Emperor always misses the people of Tai'an, cares for the people of Tai'an at all times, and sends his own guards division to protect their lives and property.

When I arrived at the merchant's house, I heard that I was a reporter with the army, and the merchant's family was very enthusiastic, made me tea, invited me to sit by the blazing charcoal fire, and opened up the family routine for me.

The businessman said that he is mainly engaged in the peanut oil business, and his family has an oil mill, which can produce hundreds of catties of peanut oil every day, mainly for the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Pingjin regions. After the arrival of the Eighth Route Army, the oil mill was confiscated and the business could not be done. Originally, I planned to let my son and girl go to Japan to study and learn Japanese civilization in order to transform Chinese society. The Eighth Route Army confiscated the oil mill, the business collapsed, and there was no way to make money, so the son and girl could not study in Japan, and the family was worried every day and lived in fear.

I asked the businessman if he had seen Liu Yimin?

The merchant replied that he hadn't seen it, but he had only heard that Liu Yimin was born in school, both civil and military, and his appearance was dignified.

I asked Liu Yimin again if he confiscated your oil mill and kicked your family's job, do you hate him?

The businessman said that Liu Yimin was a bandit leader, but he was under the guise of resisting Japan, and whoever wanted to oppose him, he would say that he was a traitor and would be shot directly. People with families and jobs all over China hate him, but unfortunately he has soldiers and guns, and he hates him in vain.

When I came out of the businessman's house, I repeatedly pondered a question, it is said that the senior leaders of the first class are all big intellectuals, don't they understand that the purpose of the integration of Japan, Manchuria, and China is to promote backward and ignorant China and develop China's economy? If Liu Yimin could see the businessman, I wonder if he would feel guilty for destroying the happiness of the common people? ”

Seeing her big-headed ghost, Lin Fumiko was obviously not in Tai'an at this time, and the articles she wrote were fabricated out of thin air, she said that Mount Tai was covered in silver, if she really came to Tai'an to see it, she would know that the snow was very small, and it had already stopped, where could I see snow on Mount Tai.

As for the words she made up about breakfast sellers and merchants, it was even more. When did the Eighth Route Army do what she said? If the Eighth Route Army was really as she made up, I am afraid that it would have been defeated by the Japanese army long ago.

Besides, at this time, the city of Tai'an was empty, the people had already moved, and they were still selling breakfast, the Japanese army smashed the door and picked the lock, turned over the boxes and cabinets, and dug three feet into the ground in the city of Tai'an, and did not find a grain of grain, and the soldiers were gnawing on the cold rice dumplings brought all the way from Qingdao, and Iida Shojiro was worried about the supply

As for Liu Yimin, who she said, she was sitting under a stage in Qinglongji at this time, watching the performance of the soul-pulling actor with relish with Peng Xuefeng, Hu Laohu and others
