[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 940: Street Encounters (Ask for Subscription!) , ask for a monthly pass, ask for everything! ）

Yan'an City is very small, and it is completely incomparable with Guisui or Baotou, or even Jining, and the residents are relatively scattered. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but surprisingly, there are a lot of pedestrians on the street.

From the cave where he lived, it was only less than a hundred meters away from the nearest street, but in just a few minutes, Ma Zheng heard no less than a dozen dialects, including Sichuan, Hunan, and Jiangxi, and even Cantonese and soft Jiangsu-Zhejiang dialect.

"Xiao Zhang, are there so many people on Yan'an Street every day?" Ma Zheng asked Xiao Zhang, the commanders of the chairman's guard company.

Xiao Zhang's name is Zhang Zhiguo, and he is the commander of the guard company that the chairman has just replaced, and Ma Zheng is not too familiar with him.

However, Zhang Zhiguo is very familiar with Ma Zheng, of course, now the military and civilians in Yan'an do not know Ma Zheng's name, and dozens of loudspeakers in the city every day are all about Ma Zheng's deeds. Therefore, there are many people who don't know Ma Zheng, but there are really not many people who don't know Ma Zheng's deeds.

Today, when he learned that the chief he was going to accompany was the commander of the prestigious Suicha Military Region, Zhang Zhiguo's mood was very excited, and when he saw Ma Zheng's questioning, Zhang Zhiguo immediately saluted and then replied loudly: "Report to the chief, Yan'an ......

Zhang Zhiguo was interrupted by Ma Zheng as soon as he spoke: "Xiao Zhang, don't be nervous, don't be so formal, let's come out to take a look at the customs of Yan'an and understand the real life of the people in the rear, after all, the Anti-Japanese War has just broken out when I left, and people's lives are not as difficult as they are now, so we are going to many places today, if you keep saluting me like this, then I have to keep giving you a return salute, forget it, we can communicate normally." ”

Zhang Zhiguo also felt that he was a little nervous today, although he was very strange that he was not nervous when he saw the chairman and others for the first time, but he behaved so badly today, so he smiled and said: "The chief is right, I am indeed a little nervous today!" ”

"Hehe, there are not so many people in Yan'an every day, it's just that the Japanese planes only came yesterday, so according to the general law, the Japanese army will not send bombers to bomb Yan'an in three days, so when the Japanese planes don't come, people hurry into the city to buy some daily necessities, and small traders also take this opportunity to quickly come out to sell their goods. So it seems that there are a lot of people today, but there are not so many people in normal times! ”

Hearing Zhang Zhiguo say this, Ma Zheng was relieved, so many people are about to catch up with big cities like Zhangjiakou and Guisui, it is indeed a little abnormal, it turns out that people are concentrated to go out these days.

"Do Japanese planes often come to bomb? Do our air defense facilities work? Ma Zheng asked again.

Zhang Zhiguo smiled bitterly: "I often come, when the chief left Yan'an, the Japanese army didn't think much of our Eighth Route Army, so they didn't send the air force to deal with us." However, Mr. Lin's 115th Division annihilated nearly 1,000 enemies in the Battle of Pingxingguan, and after achieving the first victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese army began to send troops to attack our Eighth Route Army, and even prepared to use Shanxi as a springboard to directly capture Yan'an. ”

"The result?"

"As a result, you and Commander He's 120th Division were caught off guard in the northwest of Shanxi, and the troops suffered heavy losses. After that, the embarrassed and angry Japanese army dispatched troops to attack the Yellow River defense line in the eastern part of our border area, but was met with a head-on attack by the anti-Japanese warriors of the Eighth Route Army. After the Japanese invaders failed on the ground, they retaliated by means of air raids on the border area! ”

"When did the Japanese army start bombing Yan'an? 37 or 38? Ma Zheng asked again.

"It was on November 20, 38, that the Japanese army sent aviation units to bomb Yan'an for the first time. Because the preparations were very inadequate, and it was a Sunday, people came and went in Yan'an, and when the seven planes of the Japanese invaders flew over Yan'an, people panicked, people shouted horses neighing, and yellow dust was rolling. Enemy planes strafed and dropped bombs at the crowd, and houses collapsed in an instant. Yan'an was bombed into a pile of rubble, and there were many casualties. ”

"Bastard!" Ma Zheng said with a frown.

Then Xiao Zhang continued: "After that, the Japanese army continuously sent aviation units to bomb, although we also took some prevention and control measures, but because we lacked anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns to deal with aircraft, the effect of anti-air raids was very bad, and the casualties of the military and civilians were very large, and 380 houses were blown up, including the destruction of the school building of Kang University; Even Jin Daosong, deputy commander of the Guanzhong Military Division of the Eighth Route Army, who stayed behind in the rear of the Eighth Route Army, died. ”

"Kim Do-song? Lao Jin sacrificed? Ma Zheng asked in surprise.

"Well, died on 11/21/38!"

"Hey! What a wonderful man! Ma Zheng said with a deep sigh.

Ma Zheng and Jin Daosong are also acquaintances, Jin Daosong is a native of Hubei, an old revolutionary, joined the regiment in 29 years, and participated in the Long March, but I didn't expect to die under the bombardment of the little devils, it's really a pity!

Several people talked while walking, and then Zhang Zhiguo took Ma Zheng and others to a place on Yan'an Street where people were concentrated, only to see many people talking in front of a stone wall.

Seeing Ma Zheng's puzzled eyes, Zhang Zhiguo explained: "Chief, this is a place where our Yan'an border district government posts notices and propaganda newspapers, just like a news concentration station, once the border district government has any new regulations or a new war report, it will be posted here for people to see, of course, major news will be broadcast in the big broadcast." ”

Ma Zheng squeezed in slightly, and then saw a lot of big red paper and newspapers posted on the wall, the big red paper usually wrote the latest battle report, on which Ma Zheng saw the battle report about their total annihilation of the 33rd Division of the Japanese army a few days ago.

Later, Ma Zheng saw a "Statistical Table of Losses from the Japanese Bombing of Yan'an" in a relatively high place, which clearly stated the bombing records of all the Japanese troops from the first bombing of Yan'an in 1938 to the present, as well as the losses caused by the bombing to Yan'an.

"The two bombings on November 20 and 21, 1938, each flew seven sorties, dropped 110 bombs, killed 30 people, wounded 122 people, and destroyed 109 houses."

"On December 12, 1938, the third air raid carried out 7 sorties, dropped more than 40 bombs, destroyed more than 100 houses, and killed no casualties."

"The fourth air raid on December 14, 1938, with 7 sorties of incoming aircraft and 45 bombs, caused very little damage."

"On August 15, 1939, the fifth air raid was carried out by 10 sorties, 40 bombs were dropped, 6 people were killed and wounded, and 27 houses were destroyed."

"On September 8, 939, the Japanese army flew 43 sorties from morning to night, attacked Yan'an three times, dropped more than 200 bombs, killed and wounded more than 50 people, destroyed more than 100 houses, one cow, one horse, and four pigs."

"On September 10, 1939, the ninth air raid, 10 sorties of incoming aircraft, bombing and strafing, Comrade Zhong Jiaopan of the Political Department of the Eighth Route Army was blown up and killed."

"On the morning of October 15, 1939, the 11th and 12th air raids dropped a total of 122 bombs, killing 23 people, destroying 30 houses, and killing several livestock."

"On April 2, 1940, the thirteenth air raid carried out 43 sorties, 52 bombs, 6 houses were destroyed, 4 holes in stone kilns, one dead horse, and no casualties."

"The fourteenth air raid on May 2, 1940, 47 sorties of incoming aircraft, 123 bombs, 36 houses destroyed, 24 holes in stone kilns, and no casualties."

"On September 12, 1940, the fifteenth air raid attacked 77 aircraft, dropped 352 bombs, destroyed 6 houses, 44 stone kilns, 3 dead horses, 2 cattle, and no casualties."

Ma Zheng saw that the bombing on September 12 happened to be the day they arrived in Yan'an, but fortunately, it was already about seven o'clock in the evening when his convoy entered the city, and if he had found it for a few hours, he was afraid that he would have to meet the devil's plane head-on.

After taking a closer look, Ma Zheng found that the intensity of the Japanese bombing was getting greater and greater every time, from the first 7 planes to the 43 planes dispatched yesterday, it was obvious that the Japanese army was paying more and more attention to the Eighth Route Army, so it directly led to the Japanese army's efforts to attack the Eighth Route Army becoming more and more crazy day by day.

Judging from the fact that more than 30 people were killed or wounded in Yan'an in the first bombing to the damage to several houses caused by 77 enemy planes yesterday, although Yan'an did not have many effective air defense facilities, it had its own set of methods for dealing with the Japanese bombing, and the results seemed to be very good, which was worth learning from the Suicha Military Region.
