Chapter 276: Plan Ahead

Torture platform, the military headquarters of the New Sixth Army.

It was already late at night, but the light in Yue Weihan's room was still on.

Yue Weihan has indeed not slept yet, he is formulating the policy and major policies for the resistance base area in the Jingcheng Mountains!

Yue Weihan really wanted to do this, and when the Yue army finished its frontal attack and turned around and swept the occupied areas, the New Sixth Army would definitely be smashed to pieces by the heavy army group of the Yue army, and then it would have to wander around and fight guerrillas.

Yue Weihan didn't want to follow the routine of the Eighth Route Army, so he had to find another way!

If we want to make the anti-Japanese base area in the Jingcheng Mountains impregnable, we must first have solid military facilities!

There are eight canyons in Taihang Mountain, and the so-called eight mountains actually refer to eight large canyons that run east-west and cross the Taihang Mountains.

Yue Weihan's idea was to build a fortress at the east and west ends of the Jingcheng Grand Canyon, and the main fulcrum of these two fortresses was a large number of pillbox fortifications, as well as a huge network of tunnels connected to them, and at the same time cut off the Zhengtai Railway and Shitai Highway, and built a large number of anti-tank trenches on the roadbed to ensure that the heavy equipment such as tanks, armored vehicles, and heavy artillery of the Yue army could not enter the mountainous area!

As long as the heavy equipment of the Yue army cannot enter the mountainous area, even if the army mobilizes 50 divisions and regiments, it can only waste food in vain, the reason is very simple, the exits at the east and west ends of the Jingcheng Grand Canyon are so wide, and it is already the limit to expand an infantry wing, so what is the use of sending more soldiers? Isn't it enough to stare at the back?

In the final analysis, the army during World War II was not good at mountain warfare, let alone set up a special mountain division, and the so-called mountain warfare expert Abe Norihide in history was a complete joke.

Therefore, the New Sixth Army was fully capable of holding the fortresses at both ends of the Jingcheng Grand Canyon.

As long as the arsenals, iron and steel plants, power plants, gunpowder factories, yarn factories, and other factories in the anti-Japanese base areas in the Jingcheng Mountains can be opened, the New Sixth Army will be able to keep up with the Yue troops who came to sweep for a long time, and the fortresses at both ends of the Jingcheng Grand Canyon will become meat grinders for the Yue army, and in the end, the only ones who cannot afford it will be the Yue army!

Of course, two fortresses alone will not be able to hold the base area.

Because if the army can't attack it, it will definitely turn into a blockade.

Jingcheng Mountain Area has abundant strategic resources, such as coal, iron ore, timber, etc., but there is a lack of one of the most important strategic resources, that is, grain! The Jingcheng Grand Canyon has a lot of arable land and little arable land, and there is a lot of dry land and little water land, and the grain output is not high in the first place, so it is already very difficult to feed the original population of Jingcheng County, plus the more than 60,000 garrisons of the New Sixth Army, it is absolutely not possible.

There are only two ways to solve the problem of grain shortage in the Jingcheng Mountains, one is smuggling, and the other is to produce to save oneself.

When the Baoshan Division moved to Lunan, Yue Weihan had already established a good relationship with Chi Dianwen, the boss of the Shandong Youth Gang, and with Chi Dianwen secretly taking care of him, it was absolutely not a problem to smuggle some grain into the base area, but this valuable line of communication was not used to smuggle grain, but to smuggle military salaries, medicines, chemical raw materials, and other materials in short supply.

Therefore, if we want to solve the problem of the difficulty of feeding more than 60,000 officers and men, we must rely on production to save ourselves.

Labor is not a problem, more than 10,000 prisoners of war are free livestock, and in the future, there will be more prisoners of the puppet army into the prisoner of war concentration camp in the Jingcheng Mountains; The problem is that there are not so many high-yield water land in the Jingcheng Mountains, and although there is only one word difference between water land and dry land, the yield is very different!

If most of the dry land in the Jingcheng Mountains can be converted into paddy fields, the problem will be solved!

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Yue Weihan's mind, by the way, it was to modify the irrigation canal!

"It's done!" Yue Weihan was excited, slapped his palm on the map, and couldn't help but say, "Now there is a door!" ”

The voice fell, but Chu Zhongtian suddenly pushed the door and walked in, and immediately reported: "Military seat, Secretary Yang of the [***] Southern Hebei Prefectural Committee, and a guy who claims to be the commander of the Eighth Route Army's Southern Hebei Military Region wants to see you, oh yes, that guy looks very much like you, I almost recognized the wrong person just now, hehe." ”

"Secretary Yang?" Yue Weihan was stunned and said, "Commander of the Southern Hebei Military Region? ”

Yue Weihan actually knew that Yue Weiguo, the commander of the Eighth Route Army's Southern Hebei Military Region, was his fourth brother, but he never had time or opportunity to meet, and he was still looking forward to this "fourth brother" Yue Weihan, the reason is very simple, with the introduction of his relatives "Fourth Brother", it will obviously be much easier to join China.

Chu Zhongtian nodded and asked, "Junzao, see or not see?" ”

"See, of course." Yue Weihan said without thinking, "Invite them in." ”

Chu Zhongtian took the order and left, and in less than a moment, he led Yang Shaocheng and a young man who looked almost the same as Yue Weihan into the living room.

Before Yue Weihan stepped forward, the young man had already strode forward, slapping Yue Weihan's arms with both hands, and a pair of blazing tiger eyes had faint tears in them, at this moment, Yue Weihan was also moved in his heart, although he was not the real Yue Weihan, but he could also clearly feel the excitement of the "fourth brother".

"Little brother!" Yue Weiguo shook Yue Weihan's arms vigorously, and sighed, "I didn't expect it to be you!" ”

"Little brother!" Yue Weihan also said naturally, "After so many years of leaving, I almost want to die of my little brother!" ”

"You kid!" Yue Weiguo punched Yue Weihan on the right shoulder again, and said with a smile, "In eight years, I have actually changed from a gentleman who does not learn and bully men and women to a lieutenant general who is brave and good at fighting and commanding ten thousand armies." After saying this, Yue Weiguo said again, "By the way, my father is still in good health?" ”

"Father's health is fine." Yue Weihan said, "I just saw it during the Battle of Xuzhou, and if you can eat, drink, pull and spread, it will definitely not be a problem to live for another thirty years." ”

"You kid." Yue Weiguo scolded with a smile, "How can anyone say this about my father? ”

Yue Weihan smiled slightly, and greeted Yang Shaocheng again: "Secretary Yang, are you here too?" ”

Yang Shaocheng stepped forward to shake hands with Yue Weihan, and said with a smile: "We originally planned to go to Shahe County to see you, but when we arrived in Shahe, we realized that you actually returned to Shimen with the troops, and it was already this hour to catch up with here, and Weiguo had to go back early tomorrow morning, so we could only visit late at night, Brother Weihan, no one would say anything gossiping, right?" ”

"Gossip?" Yue Weihan said indifferently, "Who likes to talk about it, who can control other people's mouths?" ”

Yue Weihan's words obviously meant something, and Yang Shaocheng couldn't help but glance at Yue Weiguo, his eyes showing joy.

Yue Weiguo chatted with Yue Weihan for a few words, and couldn't help but sigh again: "Little brother, you led the troops all the way out of Baoshan County, but you really killed a lot of devils, my mother loved you the most when she was a child, and if she knew that you had made such a great contribution to the country and the nation, she would be happy." ”

"Ugh." Yue Weihan sighed, shook his head and said, "The situation is like this, what else do you want to contribute?" ”

Yang Shaocheng wasted no time in asking: "Brother Weihan, have you ever thought about why the situation of the National War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression has evolved into the way it is now?" ”

"Of course I did." Yue Weihan said, "China has a [***] thorough political axe, and a large group of senior generals who only know intrigue, but do not know how to command the army, and there is a commander who does not enter the stream, but he also likes to go to the front line to skip the command, if the three major battles of Songhu, Xuzhou, and Wuhan can be won, then it is called a ghost!" ”

"Do you think ......," Yang Shaocheng added, "the Kuomintang can't save China?" ”

"Of course." Yue Weihan said without thinking, "The Kuomintang is the spokesperson of international comprador capital, they have a slave surname from their bones, and the national political axe has never been a real central political axe, over the years, the decree of the national political axe has never been issued in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, how can such a political party, such a political axe save China?" ”

"Little brother, what do you think of us [***]?" Yue Weiguo asked eagerly.

"[***]?" Yue Weihan smiled slightly and said, "I think the [***] theory is very good, but you [***] people seem to be a little biased when implementing this set of theories. ”

"I want to hear about it." Yang Shaocheng's face looked very serious and serious.

Yue Weihan said unabashedly: "I think that the vast majority of Chinese [***] people are pure, pure, noble, and truly willing to sacrifice their lives for the Chinese revolution, but there are also a small number of people who always want to use the title given by the Comintern to seize power and usurp the fruits of the revolution." ”

Speaking of this, Yue Weihan said very seriously: "Also, the Soviet Union has completely abandoned the [***] theory, and their political system has completely evolved from a boiled system to a complete talent reading system, and the power of Stalin, the leader of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, has even surpassed that of the old tsar, and his casual words can decide the life and death of thousands of old Bolsheviks, I think this is extremely abnormal, as a mature political party, even if it is her supreme leader, it should also act in strict accordance with the party program and the country's constitution, It should not be overridden by the party's program and the country's constitution. ”

Yue Weihan said this, but he was referring to it, he was almost taking precautions.

As a traverser, Yue Weihan absolutely believes that only China [***] can save China at that time, but Yue Weihan is never willing to see the tragedy of the "Ten Years of Catastrophe" repeated in New China, and if you want to eliminate the "Ten Years of Catastrophe", the most important thing is to nip the cult of personality in the bud and help China [***] truly mature.

If China had not engaged in a cult of personality and had been able to formulate a sound constitution before seizing power, then its power would have been greatly constrained, and after serving two consecutive terms as its leader, it would have withdrawn from the political arena as logically as Washington, the first president of the United States, and the tragedy of the 10-year catastrophe could have been completely avoided.
