[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 464: New Quest (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass, ask for everything!) ）

Wuhan could not be defended, which Ma Zheng had predicted before the war, and the strategic mistakes were by no means compensated by tactical superiority, not to mention that the Nationalist Government's tactical performance was also average.

However, Ma Zheng is now in Guisui, and he can't do anything about it, and he can't do anything if he wants to help. Fortunately, because of the Jinbei Campaign just launched by the Suicha Military Region, the Japanese army in North China did not dare to act rashly, and the Zhongtiao Mountain Offensive that was originally planned to be launched was also forced to be canceled, which also enabled the Nationalist Government to calmly mobilize troops from the First Theater, otherwise the situation on the Wuhan battlefield would be even more dangerous.

Going back to Ma Zheng's department, now Ma Zheng's little daughter-in-law has left for the United States, although it will take at least half a month to travel from China to the United States, or even longer, as for waiting for Li Lanqing to deliver supplies from the United States back to China, it will be even longer, but some things still have to be prepared in advance.

Ma Zheng had talked to the chairman about the troops going south to Shandong before, and the chairman agreed at that time, but when to go south and who would lead the team to the south did not have a deep discussion. Now, with Li Lanqing's departure, the entire plan has begun to be fully implemented, and it is already ready to go south to Shandong to open up a base area.

Gui Sui. Suicha Military Region. Headquarters meeting room.

The meeting was convened five days ago, and the scale of the meeting was not very large, but the standard was extremely high, and only military and political leaders at the division level and personnel designated by the military district headquarters attended the meeting, and the full number of people was only 20.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, when Ma Zheng walked into the conference room, Yun Jian, political commissar of the military region, Wang Hansen, minister of logistics, Xu Yinghui, minister of military intelligence, Xu Xiaolin, deputy minister and deputy chief of staff, Feng An, minister of military industry, and political commissars of the six integrated divisions were all present.

After entering the door, he sat down on the main seat, and Ma Zheng then said loudly: "It's all here, then let's start!" ”

After a round of applause, Ma Zheng said loudly: "Comrades, the results of the battle in northern Jin have been counted, in just one week of fighting, our department dispatched two divisions and two brigades with a total of more than 55,000 people, against the Japanese army's four field divisions, a mixed brigade and a powerful armored force, through the battles of Datong, Huairen, Zuoyun Youyu, Yinshan, Shuoxian, etc., our army annihilated more than 31,000 Japanese puppet troops, and disabled two divisions and one brigade of the Japanese army, of which the Japanese 27th Division and the 20th Division received more than half of the casualties, In particular, the 27th Division had less than one wing of infantry and more than 3,000 technical units left, and even the division commander Masaharu Honma was killed, which can be described as a heavy loss. ”

"Our army captured a total of 9 Japanese cities and towns, captured tens of thousands of weapons and equipment, rescued more than 4,000 miners and captured personnel from both sides of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and supported the Wuhan battlefield on the side.

After speaking, Ma Zheng personally took the lead in applauding, and all the generals did not dare to lag behind, and responded one after another, and the applause in the conference room was thunderous for a while.

Later, when the atmosphere in the conference room calmed down a little, Ma Zheng said again: "This time, in addition to reporting the achievements during this time, it is more important to discuss the tasks of the next stage, because this matter is related to the future of our military region, so I will announce a few disciplines before the official start of the meeting!" ”

Seeing the seriousness of what Ma Zheng said, everyone straightened their waists, straightened their ears, and listened carefully.

"First, the content of this meeting is absolutely confidential, only known to these people in the conference room, and it is never allowed to be discussed after returning home, let alone disclosed to outsiders, otherwise military law will be strictly enforced! Second, everyone in this meeting can only listen to it, but not record it, everyone has everything in their heads, and not a single word is allowed to be left in the notebook. Can it be done? ”

"Yes!" The crowd shouted.

"Okay, now I would like to announce for you the latest instructions of the Party Central Committee on the Suicha Military Region, which have been discussed and decided by the Party Central Committee: Comrade Ma Zheng will be transferred to the Shandong ******** and will be responsible for the task of going south to form the Shandong Military Region. However, Comrade Ma Zheng's current position remains unchanged, and he is still the commander of the Suicha Military Region. After Comrade Ma Zheng was transferred to Shandong, Comrade Yun Jian temporarily took over the command of the Suicha Military Region, and the rest of the personnel should cooperate with Comrade Ma Zheng in the handover of the troops......

After Ma Zheng read out the order of the Party Central Committee, he then said to the senior leaders of the Suicha Military Region present: "This is an order issued by the chairman himself, and the reason must be a little understood, first of all, the 115th Division is not progressing very smoothly in Shandong, and someone needs to carry the anti-Japanese banner in Shandong again. ”

"The second is that our Suicha Military Region has now reached a bottleneck stage, and to the west is the Eighth War Zone of the Nationalist Government and Fu Yisheng's territory, and we must not clash with them under the banner of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party jointly resisting Japan, otherwise it will cause friction. The development of the north was about to enter Outer Mongolia, which conflicted with the interests of the Soviet Union. To develop to the east is to exchange fire with the Kwantung Army, which is not conducive to the development of our army, after all, for the fierce beast of the Kwantung Army, we can try not to provoke or not provoke. If we go south, we will reach Taiyuan, which will inevitably be counterattacked by the main force of the North China Front, and even have to fight a decisive battle with our main force, so it will not work for the time being. ”

"Although we are not afraid of little devils, our army is killed by stepping on the heads of little devils and bathing in the blood of little devils. However, if we make a forced breakthrough, the cost will be too great, and it may also arouse the suspicion of the Nationalist Government, so I plan to jump to the outside line and develop in the Shandong region, and build a Suicha Military Region in Shandong. ”

Those who came to attend the meeting were all division-level commanders of the Suicha Military Region, and even brigade-level officers were not eligible to participate. Moreover, no one heard any news before coming, and no one expected that the commander would be transferred. The shock of this news was no less than the sudden surrender of the Japanese, especially for senior officers like Huang Sicheng and Wang Hansen who followed Ma Zheng all the way.

"Commander, you really want to be transferred to Shandong, so what should we do?" Ma Desheng of the cavalry division asked a little incoherently.

For Ma Desheng and the others, they are used to fighting under Ma Zheng's orders, and they are really not used to leaving Ma Zheng.

This is not to say that Ma Desheng and the others have a low command level, but since they fled to Chahar, they have become stronger and stronger under Ma Zheng's careful planning, so everyone has regarded Ma Zheng as a symbol of victory. With Ma Zheng here, no matter how difficult the conditions and how dangerous the situation is, they are confident that they will defeat the enemy and achieve the final victory.

Ma Zheng smiled and said, "Ma Dabeard, what kind of bastard are you talking about, without me Ma Zheng, you won't fight devils?" ”

"Commander, this fight devil is necessary, but follow you to fight devils, no matter how fierce the little devil is, it will be like mud, and it will break when you touch it. In a word, I am happy to fight devils under your command, and I have confidence! Ma Desheng said loudly.

"With me, I don't have to fight devils as before, don't talk nonsense like whether it's painful or not, who the is born to fight? Leave me Ma Zheng you still fight devils, during this time your cavalry division is not quite majestic in the Xilin Gol prairie, it is said that the newly formed several troops of King De have been swallowed by your cavalry division, and your range of activities has even reached the first line of Tongliao Chifeng, amazing! Ma Zheng said with a smile.

"That's different!"

Ma Zheng knew what Ma Desheng was going to say, and immediately said: "Comrades, I know what you are worried about, but you must be clear, we are all party members, and the Yan'an side transferred me to Shandong is the military fate." At the same time, this is also the trust of the CPC Central Committee in my Ma Zheng and in the people you here, so we must work together to accomplish this task. ”

"What's more, I'm still serving as the commander of the Suicha Military Region, and you are still fighting devils under my command, but I'm not permanently stationed in Guisui, can't you even adapt to this?"

"Commander, it's natural to adapt, it's just that"

"There is nothing but that, a soldier takes obedience to orders as his duty, and he will act when he orders are ordered, and there is no other word! What's more, I took the initiative to go south to Shandong to open up a new base area! Ma Zheng said in surprise. (To be continued.) )
