Chapter Fifty-Nine: Okamura Ninji's Worries!

As an important transportation hub connecting North China and Northeast China, the importance of the Gyeongbong Railway is self-evident. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter the Japanese army invaded North China, the railway was even more closely protected, and many road protection troops were deployed along the railway.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, in view of the destruction of the Zhengtai Railway by the Eighth Route Army, in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, the North China Front Army also strengthened the inspection and vigilance along the Jingfeng Railway to ensure that the railway leading to the Guanwai could be unimpeded.

With the formation of the Eastern Hebei Military Division, Xu Mingyuan, who arrived in Eastern Hebei earlier, also thought about whether to destroy this railway line. But He Zhengdao's advice to him was not to destroy it on a large scale, but to use the railway to make money.

In order to make a difference behind enemy lines, in addition to the need to expand the number of troops, weapons, ammunition and other materials are indispensable. Simply captured from the Japanese puppet army, in He Zhengdao's opinion, is undoubtedly too slow.

In recent years, in order to shorten the pressure of transporting supplies and ammunition from China, many weapons and ammunition of the Japanese invasion troops were produced in factories in Northeast China, and then distributed to the garrison troops by rail and road.

Relying on this railway transportation line, He Zhengdao also suggested that the Eastern Hebei Military Sub-district should transfer elite military backbones and set up several railway guerrilla units in the vicinity of the Beijing-Feng Railway. These guerrillas were responsible for robbing the Japanese army.

Once it was discovered that the Japanese army was transporting weapons and ammunition from outside the Guan, the railway guerrillas cooperated with the main combat force to carry out a sabotage attack on the military column on a specific section of the road. Relying on the snatching of supplies from military columns can ensure the development and expansion of military subdivisions.

It can be said that in the past two years, relying on this railway, the Eastern Hebei Military Sub-district has also reaped a lot of benefits. And these railway guerrillas who were active on the railway line were undoubtedly the objects of the Japanese army's road protection forces.

It's just that for these elusive railway guerrillas, the Japanese army tried many ways, but in the end they failed to effectively curb the robbery of railway materials. Fortunately, the number of robberies is relatively not too much.

Over time, the Japanese army escort troops along the railway line were also accustomed to the situation where their trains were robbed every once in a while. It's naturally good to be able to recover it, but if you can't recover it, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

In the eyes of these Japanese puppet soldiers who protect the road, as long as they can ensure the normal transportation of the Jingfeng Railway, they will also admit the loss of some materials. Compared with the Zhengtai Railway, it has completely lost its role now, and they also hope that the Eighth Road will only grab things and not bomb the railway.

After all, they can loot the looted materials from other places. If the railroad is blown up, the impact will be far greater than the rush for supplies. Even in the back, the little devil felt that the Eighth Road did not bomb the railway, just to rob them of their things.

While scolding these railway guerrillas for being too thieves, what the little devils can do is to strengthen the security force when transporting goods. But no one expected that this time, these railway guerrillas would not rob things, but would instead bomb the railway.

When the Japanese road guards were cursing, the railway guerrillas who had withdrawn to safety also said with some regret: "This road has been blown up, and we will not be able to catch the little devil's things in the future." ”

As far as the members of the railway guerrillas are concerned, since the formation of the guerrillas, they have lost count of how much material they have robbed the Japanese army. But every time they snatched supplies from the Japanese army, it would bring them a sense of pride and excitement.

At present, the military sub-district has issued an order to destroy the Japanese railway, even if they feel that this is cutting off their own money. But they know better that blowing up this railway is undoubtedly a big hornet's nest for the little devils in North China!

Fortunately, the main force that cooperated with them in the battle soon smiled and said, "It's okay!" Although in the future, we can no longer rely on the little devil's railway to seize supplies. But in the future, the little devil will not be able to rely on the railway to transport supplies.

Over the years, they have relied on this railway to continuously transport our minerals and wealth to Guanwai. How many weapons and ammunition are produced from all those coals and ores? Speaking of which, the railroad has a greater loss to keep us.

This time, the military region decided to sabotage these railways, so that the little devils would not have railways to rob us of our mineral resources and wealth. Even if you don't fight the idea of the little devil railway, are you still afraid of this little devil?

By the time this campaign is over, I believe that you will all have the opportunity to transfer in the main forces to continue the fight against the Japanese army. If we really want to rob the little devils' things, we will find trouble with those little devils in the city in the future, and there will be no less seizures! ”

It is clear that with the Jingbong Railway being seriously damaged by them, the little devil should not expect the railway to transport materials in a short time. In this way, these railway guerrillas, who were specifically responsible for fighting the Japanese puppet army along the railway line, really lost their usefulness.

But in the eyes of the officers of the main force, there are still a large number of Japanese puppet troops in eastern Hebei. These railway guerrillas, who have been active along the railway line all year round, are each a military backbone and will be reused as the main force.

With the words of the leaders of the main forces, the members of the railway guerrillas were naturally happy. Even if some members of the team were worried that doing so would anger the Japanese troops along the railway, the main force also gave them a reassurance.

smiled and said, "Don't worry! At present, our military sub-division is fully capable of dealing with the troops of the little devils in eastern Hebei. Even if the little devils send heavy troops over next, I don't think they will be able to get any favors.

The destruction of this railway now also deprives the little devil of the opportunity to rely on the railway to dispatch troops. And the main forces of our troops to various combat areas can also recover these lost territories before the arrival of reinforcements from the little devils.

If the little devils in North China really want to fight with us, I believe that the leaders of the Central Committee will not let the little devils have a good time. You know, we also have a large number of troops in Shanxi and Shanxi!

What's more, at present, the main forces of the military region have been assembled near Rehe. If the little devils in Beiping dare to attack on a large scale, the head of the military region will not sit idly by. Besides, we're not easy to bully, are we? ”

Compared with the members of these railway guerrillas, it is not very clear what the strength of the military subdivision is at present. As officers of the main force, they know to some extent that although there are no division-level troops in the military sub-district, the number of regiment-level troops is indeed quite large.

If the guerrilla brigades and district squads are mobilized, it is estimated that the number of troops that can be used to counter the Japanese encirclement and suppression will far exceed 100,000. To encircle and suppress so many troops, how many troops will the little devils send to fight?

If troops are drawn from other places to participate in the war, then there is a possibility that something may happen in other places where the Eighth Route Army is active. At that time, the little devils in North China will also become firefighters, running around in order to stabilize the local situation.

When the Japanese troops along the railway began to frantically hunt for the troops of the Eighth Route Army who blew up the railway. The main force of the Eighth Route Army, which cooperated with the railway guerrillas to break the railway, also successively engaged in the battle of blocking and ambushing the Japanese puppet army.

Looking at the losses of a Japanese army unit that had been encircled and suppressed in the city, and the Japanese garrison officers in the cities along the railway, they all felt that something was wrong. After burying these main forces of the clearance, it was difficult for them to hold the county seat.

But what puzzled these Japanese garrisons the most was why there were a large number of main forces of the Eighth Route Army near their cities. You must know that most of the people who created problems for them in the past were some guerrilla units of the Eighth Route Army!

In the face of this unfavorable situation, after receiving a telegram from the garrison officers along the railway line asking for help, Okamura Ninji also had a headache and said: "Order the defenders of each city to suspend the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army and make every effort to ensure the safety of each city." ”

Regarding this kind of telegram asking for reinforcements everywhere, Okamura Ninji knew that there were not many troops he could draw out at the moment. If troops from other places were really transferred to eastern Hebei, the situation in northern China would surely become even more chaotic.

When Okamura Ninji was anxious, he received a telegram from the North China Front, and Mei Xinji Miro also had a headache and said: "Yaga! When will the troops in North China be able to stabilize local security? ”

You must know that in the sequence of the Japanese army invading China, the North China Front is undoubtedly a powerful force. It's just that with the lengthening of the Japanese army's record in China, the strength of the North China Front seems to be shrinking sharply.

In the face of the urging telegrams sent by the factories in the territory, Mei Xinji Miro could only say: "Send a telegram to the North China Front, and let them transfer all the mined ore to Tianyuan Port, and use cargo ships to transport it to Guanwai."

In order to ensure the normal production and operation of the plant, it is hoped that the Admiralty will be able to help. As for the interrupted railway, it is hoped that the North China Front will be able to exterminate the resistance of the Eighth Route Army in its territory as soon as possible and repair the interrupted railway as soon as possible. ”

Receiving a telegram from Mei Xianji Miro, Okamura Ninji was also angry and wanted to scold his mother. You must know that this time the Eighth Route Army's sabotage attack on the railway was carried out very thoroughly, and many roadbeds were completely destroyed.

It can be said that in order to repair this railway, they need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources, but they also need to invest more troops to protect the railway. Otherwise, if they repair a section, it is estimated that the Eighth Route Army will blow up a section.

In the final analysis, only after the chaotic situation in eastern Hebei has been calmed down and the troops of the Eighth Route Army in eastern Hebei have been wiped out before they can carry out the repair work of the railway. If the clean-up is not successful, the railway will also be useless.

Just when Okamura Ningji urged his troops to rush to eastern Hebei as soon as possible to suppress the activities of the Eighth Route Army. The Eastern Hebei Army Division, however, seemed to be moving step by step, recovering several county towns around Qianxi.

Looking at the county towns under his control, falling into the hands of the Eighth Route Army one by one, Okamura Ningji's heart was dripping blood. And what worried Okamura even more was that the Eighth Route Army began to form an anti-Japanese democratic government in these counties.

This means that these county towns recovered by the Eighth Route Army will be more difficult than they imagined if they want to reoccupy them in the future. If he wants to exterminate the Eighth Route Army in eastern Hebei, how many troops does he need to deploy?

It was also at this time that the 115th Division, which had planned to attack the Jingjing Coal Mine a year ago, suddenly launched a strong attack on the garrison of the Jingjing Coal Mine. With the start of this battle, I realized that the life of the little devils in North China will be even more difficult! (To be continued.) )
