As the three base areas slowly developed towards the regular side, Liu Hua's eyes began to slowly turn to the original long history. Before he came to this world, Yuanping, Wutai, and Fuping were all within the scope of the Jinchaji Anti-Japanese Base Area, and after he arrived, this place turned out to be his own base area. And there is no longer the heavy siege of Wutai, Laiyuan, and Fuping in August, and the long river of history has been slowly changed by itself. However, this was limited to the pattern of the Anti-Japanese War in Yuanping, Wutai, Fuping, Pingding and other places, and did not affect the pattern of the Anti-Japanese War in the whole of North China.

Liu Hua's eyes slowly fell on the huge map hanging on the wall, according to the annotations on the map, his base area has now covered at least 6 counties, in general, the base area is a triangle, one of the corners is just inserted between Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang, which can cut off the railway artery between the two places at any time. The strength of the base area, the main force plus the wrong places, has slowly approached 20,000 people, and it can be said that this has become a force to be reckoned with in the whole of North China.

In terms of military industry, with the support of a large number of rails, its own arsenal has produced several sets of machine tools on the original basis. With the support of these machine tools, its own arsenal can already produce various ammunition such as bullets, mortar shells, etc. As long as the raw materials are sufficient, it is enough to ensure the combat supply of at least three regiments. Compared with the Huangyadong Arsenal at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, it can be said that it is not as good as it.

Similarly, not only Liu Hua himself, but also the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the North China Headquarters of the Yue Army, and even the chairman and others who were far away along the coast noticed their base areas.

At this time, the chairman, who was far away in Yan'an, was also staring at North China on the map. With the continuous victories of Liu Hua's reading divisions, there are more and more red flags on the map in front of the chairman. Slowly, a triangle was gradually formed, covering a vast area of six counties in Jinyi, which can be said to be a base area that cannot be underestimated behind enemy lines.

More importantly, the base area directly cut the railway junction between Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang. As long as there is a need, he can completely paralyze the connection between Shijiazhuang and Taiyuan overnight. Similarly, Fuping County, the northernmost county seat of the base area, can directly threaten the Pingjin area of the Yuejun Army. The original county seat of Pingding, the county seat of Pingding, directly surrounded Taiyuan, an important town in North China. It is a strategically important base area.

"Boss, what do you think of the current readers," the chairman asked, looking at the commander-in-chief who had returned to Yan'an.

"It's Liu Hua's reader, I didn't expect Liu Hua, this kid, to have such strategic vision, and he has a very good set of leading troops. In less than half a year, the base area was expanded several times, and the number of troops was at least doubled. It can be said that the current reading division is a strong force of our party and our Eighth Route Army. At the mention of Liu Hua, the commander-in-chief immediately became happy and said with a smile.

"Hehe, it seems that the boss likes this Liu Hua very much!" The chair replied with a smile.

"Well, of course I like it, since the Battle of the Xiangjiang River during the Long March, when he took the remnants of the army he took in to defeat and create a reading division, I fell in love with him. He's a rare warrior. Not only is his command talent very good, but he is also very good in all aspects. I really can't figure out how a rural baby from the countryside can have such a high command talent. The commander-in-chief still couldn't help but praise Liu Hua.

"Well, in fact, I can't figure it out, forget it, if I can't figure it out, I don't want to. Boss, come and see, what can you see about the location and scope of Comrade Liu Hua's current Jindong base area? The chairman suddenly became serious and pointed to the assessment area on the map.

"Well, the south directly cuts off the traffic from Shijiazhuang to Taiyuan, and even the whole Taiyuan is surrounded by him. As long as the Fuping area in the north develops to the north, it can directly threaten the Pingjin area, the headquarters of the North China Army. In addition, backed by Taihang Mountain and Wutai Mountain, it is a strategic place that can be attacked and defended. "I think so too. Boss, where does Liu Hua's Jindong base belong now, and the name of the base area should also be changed, after all, the place has become several times larger. The commander-in-chief said.

"I think it's okay, call Vice Chairman Zhou and them all to discuss, whether it is time to rename them, and also, the establishment of the base area, such a strategic place, we have seen it, and the army has also seen it. The army will never tolerate such a threat around them, and they will definitely do everything possible to deal with the readers, so the strength of the army must be expanded. "The commander-in-chief suggested.

"Okay, I think it's tonight, call Enlai and a few of them, let's discuss"

The North China Headquarters of the Army. The Supreme Commander, General Terauchi Shouichi, sat in the commander's position and looked coldly at a series of battle reports on the table: The Ninth Route Siege of the Eighth Route Army's Jindong Base Area ended in failure with the result of losing one main wing. Immediately afterwards, the assassination of the Supreme Commander of the Reading Division of China also failed, and a senior intelligence officer was lost. Then the squadron [***] actually created a false impression and occupied the entire Yuanping area with lightning speed, although the county seat was finally recovered, but so far, not only Yuanping, but even the rural areas of the surrounding counties of Yuanping have all fallen into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. Even more angry at himself,. The Zhina Reading Master actually stretched out his hand to Hebei and occupied nearly half of the rural areas of Fuping County

Looking at the series of damage reports, Shouichi Terauchi slapped the table violently.

"Baga, what kind of unit is the Zhina Reading Division, why are the excellent imperial soldiers so vulnerable in front of the Zhina Reading Division, immediately let the Intelligence Department dispatch, and we must investigate all the circumstances of the Zhina Reading Division and the Supreme Commander Liu Hua." The commander shouted a reprimand to the staff officers around him.

In the face of the commander's reprimand, everyone was silent, quietly bowing their heads, and the entire command headquarters was silent. Slowly, General Shouichi Terauchi calmed down.

"General Staff, immediately draw up a battle plan, I am ready to launch a larger encirclement and suppression operation against the Zhina Reading Division, dispatching the garrison troops in Shanxi and Hebei, with a strength of about 50,000 people. Together with the puppet armies and security forces in various places that have just been organized, the total strength will reach 70,000. This time, I must eliminate the Shina Reader in one fell swoop. As for the name of this campaign, it is called the Winter Encirclement and Suppression Operation, and the time is set for 1 December, and the discussion of the specific combat tasks will be handed over to me for review. I hope that all of you who are doing it will work together, and for the sake of the Emperor and the future of the Imperial Empire, we cannot tolerate such a powerful force lying around us. Also, from now on, order Shijiazhuang and Taiyuan to begin secretly preparing all the materials and troops for this encirclement and suppression operation. General Terauchi ordered to the chief of staff beside him.

"Hey, I will definitely give His Excellency the Commander a perfect battle plan in the shortest possible time." The chief of staff hastened to answer.

"Yo Xi, let's all go out, I want to be quiet"

"Hi" everyone replied in unison, slowly walking out of the Commander's office.

At this time, the headquarters of the Jindong base area did not have the slightest vigilance that the devils were about to be encircled and suppressed, but were full of excitement and laughter. Because, just this morning, on October 1, the reading division received a telegram jointly sent by the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

"Changing the Jindong Base Area to the Jinyi Base Area, Commander Liu Hua, Political Commissar Guan Xiangying, Chief of Staff Li Qing, Chairman of the Base Area Political Axe Xiao Ping, Director of the General Logistics Division Wang Daoguang, Director of the Base Area Intelligence Division Meng Zhongheng, and Director of the Security Division Qian Zhonghua Under the jurisdiction of the three military subdivisions, in order to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the heavy troops that are about to come, the establishment of the base area troops has been expanded to 9 main regiments."

"Comrade commander, let's follow you to the promotion again, hehe" After reading the telegram, the political commissar next to him was full of incredulity. However, after relieving myself, I was full of excitement. Because now his reading power division finally has his own reading power base again, and the base area is directly under the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

"Commissar, you're joking, what do you mean by following me, this is the result of the joint efforts of all of us. The establishment of the military region is an affirmation of our work by the central authorities in the past six months, and at the same time, the tasks on our shoulders are also quite heavy! Liu Hua was not much surprised when he saw the telegram from the central authorities, because with his current strength, it was only a matter of time before he established a base area.

"Political commissar, send a telegram to the three brigade commanders, ask them to temporarily hand over the matter at hand to the chief of staff, and take the political commissar to Zhangjiazhuang in the fastest time, we must do a good job in the establishment of the base area in the shortest possible time. According to the meaning of the central telegram, in the near future, the Chinese army will definitely dispatch heavy troops to deal with our newly established base area. Liu Hua said to the political commissar beside him.

"Okay, I'll go and send a report, and according to their distance, I think I'll set the date of the meeting on the evening of the 3rd, what do you think?" The commissar asked.

"Okay, I agree," Liu Hua replied decisively.

In this way, on the night of the 3rd, several giants in the base area gathered together again. The brothers were very affectionate when they met, especially on the plateau of Yuanping and Fuping, Wang Nanhu and others were very excited when they saw Liu Hua and others.

"Division commander, commissar. Chief of Staff, we're back" Seeing Liu Hua, Guan Xiangying, Li Qing, Wang Nanhu, Gao Yuan and others who came to greet him, he said with an excited salute.

"Well, it's good to come back, you must have eaten yet, let's go, I'll have a treat with the political commissar in the evening, and we'll pick you up and wash the dust, and then, we'll have a meeting at night." Liu Hua looked at the generals who had matured and said very happily.
