It was supposed to be a lively Chinese New Year's Eve, but there were not many lively scenes. Even the military-civilian party, which has been going on for two years in a row, was canceled this year. Under such circumstances, many people in Yulin City feel that this year is a bit depressing.
It's just that for many people who have lost their homes, looking at the border district government that still prepared new clothes and quilts for them on Chinese New Year's Eve, as well as hot dishes and meals, these people also feel warm in their hearts.
At the end of the explosion, many of them felt that it would be very difficult to survive in this troubled world without their homes. But now, they are still hopeful about the future.
In accordance with the decision of the Independent Column and the government of the Border Region, the Independent Column sent engineering units to build new houses for them. However, it is possible that those houses will not be rebuilt in their original places, but will be built outside or in the city.
As long as the houses are not built, they can enjoy the livelihood guarantee provided by the border district government. With these guarantees, they don't have to worry about not surviving this winter, at least until the day when the new house is built.
Once the remnants of Yulin City are recovered, the government will also find new jobs for them to ensure that they can survive in this troubled world. This arrangement made these people also feel very moved, and felt that God was still long-sighted.
Compared with the people in the Yulin border area, most of them are still in the cat winter, praying for the end of the winter as soon as possible. The troops of the independent column were busier than ever, and many garrisons were ordered to move their defenses.
Looking at these troops who were moving one after another, many people in the base area were a little curious: "In this winter, do the troops still have to fight?" How can there be a war in such weather? ”
'Alas, you can't do it if you don't fight! Didn't you listen to Captain Chen of the village guerrillas a few days ago? The last bombing of our base area by the little devils killed thousands of people in Luliang and Xi'an? Little devil, do evil! ’
'Yes! And I also heard that Yulin City also blew up the little devil's plane before. Many people's houses were flattened by the bombs of the little devils. If it weren't for the benevolence and righteousness of the Eighth Route Army, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to survive this winter. ’
Regarding the discussion of the people, He Zhengdao, who was far away from Youyu and commanded the battle, was not clear. Looking at the second Qingshuihe garrison regiment that rushed to Youyu, He Zhengdao also called the regiment commander into the command room and personally told him about the combat mission.
What they had to do was to act as the second group of troops to advance into Shanxi, Chahar, and Hebei, and cooperate with the four divisions and one regiment that had gone to the base area in advance to fight. This was followed by a cavalry regiment from Dongsheng, which would also accompany them.
Looking at the commander of the Qianjun battalion who was captured in the Long March, He Zhengdao said with a smile: "Zhefeng, you won't have any opinions on transferring your regiment out to fight this time, right?" ”
'Commander, don't you often say, revolutionary comrades, a brick, where you need to move there? In fact, when we learned that the commander had transferred us to garrison Youyu, all the officers and men of our regiment were very excited, hoping to go to the battlefield as soon as possible! ’
'Good! The reason for transferring your garrison regiment over this time is also because your garrison regiment has many soldiers from the Northeast. This time, you will be our column, the second batch of troops to enter North China, and form a base area behind enemy lines in Shanxi, Chahar, and Hebei.
According to the orders of the column, as well as the instructions of the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, you will be the commander of the new regiment of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. As for the commander of the military region, Comrade Ma Xiaojun, former commander of the Fourth Division, will serve as the commander.
Before you, the 4th Division and 1st Regiment had already rushed to the Huai'an area in advance, where preparations were made for the formation of the base area. And the place where your new regiment will arrive will be the Akagi region, which is even more dangerous than the first regiment. I hope you can stay there.
Behind you, there is also a cavalry regiment that will also cooperate with you in battle. Your new group, what you have to do in a short time is to take root in Akagi and develop. There, too, there were our partisan activities.
In the future, if there is an opportunity, your new regiment will also conduct operations behind enemy lines in the Chengde area. Efforts should be made to follow the troops that entered eastern Hebei to form base areas behind enemy lines as soon as possible, so as to link the two base areas together. Therefore, your burden is heavy! ’
Although they are both regiment leaders, Wu Zhefeng is also very happy about this appointment. For him, being the commander of a new regiment is naturally more enjoyable than the commander of the garrison regiment.
One is a second-line unit, the other is a first-line combat unit, and the same regiment commander is undoubtedly heavier!
'Please rest assured, Commander, Zhefeng promises to complete the mission to the death! ’
'Okay, then you can rest for a day in Youyu and change a batch of weapons and equipment. This time, in order to allow you to reach Akagi and form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, I have prepared a batch of Japanese-style equipment for your regiment.
This time, your new regiment will also operate together with the guard battalion of the original Fourth Division. In the future, the headquarters of Jinchasui will also be set up in the Chicheng area. And your new regiment will also take on the safety of the headquarters, are you confident? ’
'Yes! ’
Looking at the fact that this captive battalion commander, who was captured by accident at the beginning, has now become a relatively rare captive regiment commander in the independent column, He Zhengdao still knows that this young garrison commander still has a good combat command ability.
In any case, compared with other Red officers and soldiers who were born in mud legs, Wu Zhefeng came out of the Yunnan Lecture Hall and had a certain degree of military theoretical literacy. After joining the independent column, he made meritorious contributions in many command operations.
It was under these circumstances that He Zhengdao assigned many prisoners of war of the Northeast Army who had been rescued from Suiyuan to Wu Zhefeng's garrison regiment for integration. Judging from the current situation, the combat effectiveness of this garrison regiment is also good.
Once the change of clothes is completed, He Zhengdao believes that the garrison regiment commanded by Wu Zhefeng also has the combat level of the main force of the regular army. Sending them to Akagi to fight behind enemy lines is sure to make a difference.
After receiving the combat mission, Wu Zhefeng, who returned to the garrison regiment, looked at the eager expressions on the faces of several main battalion commanders. smiled and said, "You're in a hurry, right?" This time, our garrison regiment will be renamed a new regiment. ”
Several battalion commanders who heard these words immediately said excitedly: "Regiment commander, we have also become the main force of the front-line troops?" ”
'Nice! And there is another news, I believe that the commander of the third battalion will be even happier when he hears it. ’
As soon as he heard Wu Zhefeng's words, the commander of the third battalion from the Northeast Army immediately said with a hint of hope: "Regiment commander, what do you mean?" Are we going to advance into the Northeast to fight behind enemy lines? ”
'You guy! Just one of our regiments, now entering the northeast to fight behind enemy lines, isn't that delivering food to the little devils? However, the place we are going to this time is very close to Chahar and Rehe. Akagi, you know? ’
With Wu Zhefeng's order to general the column, he heard that after arriving in Chicheng, their main regiment had a certain power to expand, and it could be expanded into a reinforced regiment of six main battalions. Everyone knows what that means!
Most importantly, in order to strengthen their combat effectiveness, the column also prepared a batch of Japanese-style equipment for the four main divisions that could not be replaced. These people naturally knew how much the column attached importance to them this time.
After announcing these orders, Wu Zhefeng also said solemnly: "Comrades, this time the commander transferred our regiment here and entrusted him with important tasks. I hope that you will all keep in mind our combat mission and not disgrace the column.
In the past, you always felt that it was a bit embarrassing to be a second-line garrison. But now, the commander has given us a chance to prove it, and I hope that you, the battalion commanders, will warn our officers and men to train harder after they go down.
In the future, in Akagi, we have the right to fight independently. But the enemy situation there is very complicated, and once the Japanese army encircles and suppresses it, you all know what the consequences will be.
Died on the battlefield, to be honest, Lao Tzu is not afraid. However, if it affects the column's battle plan, we will not be able to atone for its sins. Therefore, after you go down, you must do a good job in the ideological work of the soldiers, and let them all give me a little heart.
As long as we have a firm foothold in Akagi and develop well. I can guarantee that in the future, when the column advances to the northeast, we may have the opportunity to be the vanguard. Therefore, tell our fighters that the opportunity they are waiting for will not long come. ”
'Yes! ’
The Qingshuihe Garrison Regiment, which was reorganized by nearly sixty percent of the Northeast Army, undoubtedly has a very large number of soldiers from the Northeast. For their part, having had the experience of being captured once, they knew very well what would happen to being captured by little devils.
Now that they have the opportunity to enter Jinchaji to fight against the little devils, and even have the opportunity to enter the Northeast in the future, they are full of expectation and enthusiasm. In fact, Wu Zhefeng also guessed some of He Zhengdao's plans.
In the future, as long as there is an opportunity, He Zhengdao will be transferred from the Jinchaji Military Division to the anti-Japanese team in the northeast. But as far as the current situation is concerned, these Northeast Army, which served in the Qingshuihe Garrison Regiment, cannot afford such a heavy responsibility.
It's not that they're afraid of death, but He Zhengdao feels that enthusiasm and a heart that isn't afraid of death are not enough. If he really wants to send troops to advance into the northeast, then he hopes that this force can gain a firm foothold in the northeast.
This means that this unit, from commanders to ordinary soldiers, must have a strong military quality. Only in this way will it be possible for the troops sent out to gain a foothold in the northeast and achieve rapid development.
After resting for two days, Ma Xiaojun, the commander of the Fourth Division, who had completed the handover of the work at hand, also took the guard battalion directly under the division and set off to the Chicheng area with Wu Zhefeng's new regiment. Once they arrived, it was time for the battle to be in full swing.
The special operations detachment that had taken revenge by decapitation earlier would have entered there one step ahead of them. In the future, the fourth detachment will also cooperate with the Jinchaji troops in combat. This is equivalent to one less special operations detachment in He Zhengdao's hands.
Fortunately, the saber training camp is still being trained, and many former special combat soldiers who survived the battlefield but were injured and were not suitable to stay in the saber are now staying in the training camp as instructors.
These veteran special combat personnel who have experienced actual combat and have a better understanding of special operations will also use their personal experience to temper more elite special combat units. For the Eighth Route Army and the Independent Column, more qualified special combat personnel will be wrestled! (To be continued.) )
