[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 938: Yan'an's Order (Ask for Subscription!) , ask for a monthly pass, ask for everything! ）

Although the Japanese army only thought that it was very secretive, it did not hide from Ma Zheng, who had prepared in advance. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info In order to monitor the movements of the Japanese army, Ma Zheng wantonly sprinkled nails in North China, and the establishment and scale of the intelligence department became larger and larger, and the regular armed forces in Xu Xiaolin's hands alone had reached as many as 8,000 people, and they were all elite forces.

And that's not counting the periphery and informants of the intelligence services, which probably put the total number of people in the intelligence services at more than 20,000.

All in all, the intelligence department's ability to collect intelligence in North China is now comparable to that of the Japanese army's special high school and the Nationalist Government's Military Command Bureau, but of course, this is limited to North China, and the intelligence department of Ma Zheng's department in other places is much worse.

Since Ma Zheng wanted to know the exact movements of the Japanese army after the war, he ordered the intelligence department to pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese army, especially those field divisions with strong combat effectiveness. In order to ensure the accuracy of the intelligence, Xu Xiaolin sent all the officers in his hands out and began to collect intelligence according to Ma Zheng's requirements.

Soon, the information about the Fifth Division and the 109th Division going northeast from northern Henan to Tianjin was sent to Ma Zheng, so Ma Zheng judged that the little devil was likely to make a big move.

Although Ma Zheng does not know the date when the Japanese will finally make a move, maybe they will still do it at the end of next year, as they have done historically, maybe this time will be tomorrow, everything is possible.

But no matter what, every move of the Japanese army now strongly implies that Ma Zheng is going to fight with the Yankees!

Ma Zheng knew that some time ago, the Chinese Dispatch Army Command had made a small adjustment to various units on the Chinese battlefield, but because the intensity of the adjustment was not large, it did not attract the attention of the Chinese side. But this made Ma Zheng secretly happy, and the Japanese finally couldn't help it.

The Pacific War is imminent, this is a good opportunity for China, the Yankees who suffered the consequences were bullied by the Japanese during the period when the Pacific War just broke out, not to mention the hundreds of large ships at Pearl Harbor, even the US troops stationed on the Pacific islands have also been devastated, and even the American military god - MacArthur, the president of the West Point Military Academy, almost became a prisoner of the Japanese, so the Yankees had to seek help from the Chinese, and the word US aid really reflected its might.

Moreover, on the eve of the outbreak of the Pacific War in history, in order to prepare for the southward advance, the Japanese army headquarters ordered to cancel the battle sequence of the South China Front Army and organize it into the 23rd Army, and the 23rd Army was organized into the battle sequence of the Chinese Dispatch Army, and then the main 48th Division was organized into the Taiwan Army, and at the same time, the 51st Division under the Kwantung Army was transferred to the 23rd Army.

In addition, due to the outbreak of the Pacific War, the headquarters of the Chinese Dispatch Army was set up in Nanjing, and the 20th, 101st, 106th, and 108th Divisions and the 22nd Army Headquarters were successively transferred back to China, among which the 20th Division was incorporated into the Korean Army, and the 101st, 106th, and 108th Divisions and the 22nd Army Headquarters were demobilized. All in all, due to the outbreak of the Pacific War, Japan temporarily relaxed its military offensive against China, giving China a respite.

Of course, this only refers to the frontal battlefield, and for the Eighth Route Army, which was in the battlefield behind enemy lines, the real hard days after the outbreak of the Pacific War really came. Because the Japanese army began to target all the spearheads of the offensive at the Eighth Route Army and the guerrillas behind enemy lines, and it was precisely because the Japanese army continued to carry out brutal sweeps and attacks on the base areas, causing the base areas controlled by the Eighth Route Army to more than double in a short period of time, and the population from 100 million to 50 million rapidly, so Ma Zheng had to make preparations in advance.

However, because the Japanese army in North China and even the whole of China was in a period of absolute lack of troops, let alone attacking, the Japanese even seemed to be unable to defend passively. If the Eighth Route Army and the Kuomintang troops could seize the opportunity to fight a counterattack at this time, then the result would definitely be very good, and they would also win more US aid.

However, these things are not something that Ma Zheng can make alone, this has to be decided by the leaders above, and what Ma Zheng has to do now is to prepare for the upcoming big changes on his own one-third of an acre.

There is no need to worry about Ma Zheng here, with Political Commissar Luo and Xu Xiaolin and others, they only need to formulate the corresponding plan, and they will implement it perfectly.

Although the Shandong Military Region has been established and has three divisions, it has not carried out a major battle of explanation, and neither the troops below nor the command organization at the higher level have passed the test of actual combat, so Ma Zheng is ready to immediately return to Shandong to carry out a new round of layout.

But before he could act, Yan'an sent a telegram asking him to return to Yan'an as soon as possible.

After receiving the order, Ma Zheng had to change his itinerary, and then drove back to Guisui to prepare to fly to Yan'an.

But after returning to Guisui, Political Commissar Luo and others did not agree to Ma Zheng taking a plane back to Yan'an, on the grounds that it was too dangerous, after all, the air is now the world of the Japanese. The Suicha Military Region can send an aviation team to intercept and kill Yoshio Shinozuka, and the Japanese can also send an aviation team to intercept and kill Ma Zheng, so compared with airplanes, it is safest to take a car or a horse.

Ma Zheng didn't insist on this, just because he planned to go back to Baotou to see how the heavy industry base he had painstakingly built was doing and whether he could take on more important responsibilities.

Ma Zheng didn't bring many people back to Yan'an, except for a special operations squadron, there was no one else. However, when he went to Yan'an, Ma Zheng inspected the Baotou Industrial Zone along the way.

Ma Zheng came to the city of Baotou several times in his previous life, but the current Baotou is completely different from the prosperous grassland city in his memory, and the current Baotou only has the prototype of becoming a big city. At this time, Baotou already had a relatively complete city wall, which was built by the common people after Ma Zheng's department recovered Baotou.

The last time I came to Baotou was two years ago when I was in command of the Suixi Campaign, when Baotou had only a small urban area, but now the urban area of Baotou has more than doubled.

Since Ma Zheng built the industrial base of the Suicha Military Region in Baotou, a large number of laborers and refugees seeking a way to survive have also come to Baotou, so it has injected a lot of vitality into Baotou at once. According to a report by Xu Hu, commander of the Suixi Military Division, Baotou and its nearby counties have a population of about 1.3 million, making it the most populous city in the northern grasslands.

Ma Zheng was greeted by Xue Zhiqiang, political commissar of the Fifth Division, and Xu Hu is still on the front line, representing Ma Zheng to fight with Yan Laoxi.

Due to the limited time, Ma Zheng did not go to the headquarters of the Suixi Military Division, but went directly to various enterprises in Baotou City, and first went to the Baotou First Arsenal.

The site of the First Arsenal was built near Qingshan in the outer city of Baotou, and some unimportant factories were built in the wilderness and were not concentrated. All other important factories were built in the belly of the mountain, and the entire Qingshan area was under martial law by the troops, and no one was allowed to approach the industrial zone except for warrants and passwords from the Suixi Military Divisional Headquarters.

In peacetime, approximately one infantry regiment is stationed in the vicinity of the industrial zone, as well as a motorized infantry battalion and tank company. There are countless secret sentinels along the way, let alone an army, even the most elite special combat team of the Japanese army may not be able to sneak in.

Now the Japanese army has learned that Ma Zheng's department has established its own large arsenal in Baotou, and it can also produce weapons such as Type 38 rifles and Type 92 heavy machine guns, and it seems that the output is not small, so the Japanese army has sent people to destroy it many times.

Since the establishment of the industrial zone, this unit on the periphery of the arsenal has cracked a total of 86 cases of attempting to spy on the intelligence of the industrial zone, captured 140 Japanese puppet spies, and also defeated two infiltration and sabotage by the Japanese special combat team.
