Bantaji is located in Lai'an County, Anhui Province, less than 150 miles away from Nanjing, this place is surrounded by water on all sides, all kinds of lakes are as dense as the Milky Way, all kinds of mudflats, rivers and lakes occupy forty percent of the county's area, the New Fourth Army and other national army guerrillas have repeatedly used the favorable terrain here to defeat the encirclement and suppression of the Japanese army. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info At this time, it is the Chinese army that speaks the same language and sheds the same blood that is fighting here.

Han Deqin stood on the hill, looked at the fire balls that lit up from time to time in the distance, and said, "Why is the progress of the front line so slow? Doesn't it mean that there are only some old and weak? ”

Weng Da next to him said, "The terrain here is too complicated, there are river beaches everywhere, and the firepower of the New Fourth Army is not very fierce, but if you use the terrain here to shoot and fire a cannon everywhere, you can't march quickly." ”

Very Qian put down the binoculars and said, "Obviously, this is a delaying tactic, and it can't be tricked." Ordering the troops to speed up the offensive immediately, isn't it just some interference, leave him alone, these Red Party troops, like this, when I was in Jiangxi, I suffered their losses, first delay all directions, and then break through each one, to deal with the Red Army, we must fight as quickly as the autumn wind sweeps away the leaves! ”

Onda answered, and immediately went down to give the order.

Ye Fei got Han Deqin's increased offensive intensity, and said with a smile, "Okay, this fish has been hooked." ”

An officer next to him asked, "Commander Ye, in the past, it was all about showing weakness to the enemy and then luring the enemy, so today we are the opposite?" ”

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Before I came, Commander Chen explained that this Han Deqin had suffered losses from our guerrilla warfare and sports warfare before, so he would not hesitate, for fear that we would break the routine again, so he did the opposite, okay, order the troops, start retreating, and prepare for a decisive battle!" ”

-- Nanjing

"It's a fight! It's up to fight!! The sound of artillery can be heard on the riverside. ”

"This New Fourth Army and the National Army are fighting, this is a dog-eat-dog, a mouthful of hair."

"I just said, this old Jiang, where do you want to fight the imperial army, that is, you can't let go of your power, or Mr. Wang... Sacrifice your life for righteousness! ”

In the Nanjing government, there was a lot of discussion in all the offices.

"General Seishiro Itagaki has arrived!"

Hearing this, the discussion was a little quieter.

Seishiro Itagaki smiled all the way into the conference room, and when he saw that everyone had arrived, he nodded to Nishio.

Nishio looked at Itagaki Seishiro and sat down and said, "Okay, everyone is here, everyone should know about today's events, and the gunsmoke from the north will soon be seen in the city of Nanjing." We have also discussed the contradiction between the New Fourth Army and the National Army many times, but this time it is definitely not a friction, but a regular army's operation! According to intelligence, the armies dispatched on both sides totaled more than thirty regiments, and it was a big battle! ”

Immediately, an officer stood up and said, "Your Excellency, commander, this is a good opportunity for us, when they are both defeated, our army will definitely be able to sweep Jiangbei with all their strength." ”

Nishio pressed his hand and said, "Sit down, it's good, everyone's fighting spirit is commendable, but General Itagaki Seishiro has other ideas about this matter, please ask General Itagaki Seishiro to speak." ”

Seishiro Itagaki stood up, walked to the map and said, "Look, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and northern Jiangxi, although these places are nominally occupied by our imperial army, there are a large number of national army and Red Party troops operating in these places, often destroying communication roads, cutting power lines, encroaching on villages, killing good people, forcing a large number of imperial troops and security forces to be pinned down in this area, and these places are like a quagmire, trapping the strength of our army.

And this time, the conflict between the New Fourth Army and the National Army provides us with the greatest opportunity, but you should pay attention to the fact that whether it is Ye Ting and Xiang Ying of the New Fourth Army or Li Pinxian and Han Deqin of the National Army, they are just the generals below, whether the Red and White parties want to join forces against the empire or attack each other, the real decision is in Chongqing and Yan'an! ”

Okamura Ninji stood up and said, "So, General Seishiro Itagaki thinks this is not the right time?" ”

Seishiro Itagaki nodded and said, "That's right, now it's just a few regiments under the New Fourth Army and the National Army, what is this?" As long as Chongqing and Yan'an send a telegram, these two troops will immediately turn their guns against our army! So, it's far from the time! ”

Okamura Ninji asked, "So what should we do now?" When is the time? ”

Seishiro Itagaki smiled and said, "You don't have to do anything, and you have to let them have fun and fight boldly, if they dislike the small place, we have to make room for them to fight!" ”

An officer stood up and asked, "But when is the head?" If they finally restrain themselves, aren't we wasting our chance? ”

Seishiro Itagaki smiled slightly and said, "If.... What about the heavy losses of the New Fourth Army? Can Yan'an still stand it? ”

-- Half tower set

"It's... What the hell is going on? What about the New Fourth Army? What about people?? Han Deqin looked around, there were rivers everywhere, the wind was blowing, the water rippled, and birds flew by from time to time, but he couldn't see the New Fourth Army troops who were still shooting and wearing straw hats just now.

Onda looked around, didn't understand what was going on, and said, "Chairman, this... I don't know, there are lakes everywhere, just now those New Fourth Army dives all at once, and those who don't see it don't see, this..."

Han Deqin only felt creepy and asked, "Where are we now?" Grab the map? ”

Onda took the map, pointed to it and said, "This, Yougang, which is less than twenty miles away from the half-tower. ”

Han Deqin looked at the map and suddenly found that his location was actually in the middle of a group of lakes, and there was a copper mountain in front of him, which was actually a dead land.

Han Deqin stomped his feet and shouted, "Oh no, it's a plan, retreat quickly!" ”

Weng Da and the others did not react, suddenly, hundreds of shells flew from all directions to Han Deqin's troops gathered in Yougang, in the violent explosion, soil, sand and shrapnel flew everywhere, Han Deqin anxiously looked to the circuit, only to see in the distance I don't know where to fly a small boat, the boats are planted with red flags, machine guns, mortars are readily available, the corners of Han Deqin's mouth twitched.

"It's over!! Who said that this is old and weak, this is obviously the main force! It's Ye Ting's time again! Remove!! ”

Ye Fei stood on the hill and looked at the surrounded Han Deqin, thought for a while and said, "Order all departments, set aside a way, and let Han Deqin go." ”

Zhou Junming asked, "Is this what the military department means?" ”

Ye Fei nodded and said, "It's also Yan'an's meaning, Han Deqin is still guarding in the Soviet Union, and he can't all be defeated at once, otherwise the Japanese will probably benefit in the end, let's just let them know that they are powerful." ”

-- Yan'an

"Haha, it's a good fight, it's a good fight to defeat seven or eight thousand recalcitrant troops at once." Zhou Guansheng walked into the cave with a telegram and said.

Chairman Mao put down his pen, took the telegram, nodded and said, "Well, Li Pinxian and Han Deqin have suffered a lot of losses, but if we take a closer look at the battle report, we can see that less than 1,000 enemies were killed, but more than 6,000 or 7,000 were captured, which shows that the vast majority of the soldiers in the national army actually don't want to fight with us." This recalcitrant army is unpopular.

But this time, I'm afraid that not only will not let Jiang Intermediary put down the butcher knife, but will arouse his ferocity. ”

Zhou Guansheng snorted, sat aside and said, "Lin Sanhu is already preparing in Shandong, as long as the time is ripe, he can go south immediately, but this time must be grasped well." ”

Chairman Mao smiled and said, "Do things in people, do things happen in heaven, let's see how Chongqing makes a move, I hope we can do better than 203 this time." ”

Zhou Guansheng nodded and did not speak.

-- Chongqing

"I've read the newspaper, I've read the newspaper, the armies behind the enemy line are in chaos, with tens of thousands of casualties, Chairman Li of Anhui and Chairman Han of Jiangsu jointly sued the New Fourth Army for sabotaging the War of Resistance, come and see the newspaper." On the right side of the street in Chongqing, a newsboy called.

"I've read the newspaper, I've read the newspaper, the Japanese invaders are currently fratricidal, and Commander Ye Ting sued Chairman Li of Anhui and Chairman Han of Jiangsu for attacking patriotic soldiers who resisted Japan." On the left side of the street, another newsboy shouted.

Looking at these two completely different reports, pedestrians on the road couldn't help but start talking.

"There are thousands of casualties in this battle, this Ye is very ruthless!"

"Look at this, this is densely packed with records of Han Deqin and Li Pinxian's attack on the New Fourth Army, is this the time when Han and Li attacked first?"

"If you say that, why should the New Fourth Army go out of its own defense area and develop outside?"

"No, these places are all occupied by the Japanese army, as long as they are fighting devils, they are all Chinese troops, it doesn't matter."

On the streets, you say a word, I say a word, some say that the New Fourth Army is wrong, and some say that Han and Li should not attack first, and they are in a mess. The chaos in the battlefield behind enemy lines in Central China became the most concerned issue in March.

- Provisional National Government

Jiang Zheng slowly put down the telegram in his hand, suddenly smiled, shook his head and said, "Okay wow, good wow, I killed six or seven regiments in one battle, can his New Fourth Army have such a record when he fought the Japanese army?" ”

As he spoke, Jiang stood up abruptly and said, "Raise tigers for trouble!" Raise a tiger for trouble! Shanxi is like this, Suiyuan is like this, Hebei is like this, I think, Anhui and Jiangsu are not better, if this continues, I don't think it should be called the Republic of China, it should be called the Soviet!! ”

Bai Chongxi, He Yingqin and others looked at each other. This time, Bai Chongxi's Gui family suffered a lot of losses, and he was angry in his heart, and immediately said, "Commission, the New Fourth Army rashly attacked the National Army, this is an act of treason, and it can already be identified as a puppet army, I propose, declare the New Fourth Army a puppet army, Ye Xiang and others are treasonous, concentrate the main forces of the National Army in Anhui and Jiangsu, and encircle and annihilate their main forces!" ”

Jiang Intermediary looked at Bai Chongxi and asked, "Jiansheng is determined?" Confident? ”

Bai Chongxi took a breath and said, "The New Fourth Army retreats without a fight against the enemy, and deviates from the friendly army to invade each other, what is the use of such a force?" ”

Jiang Zhong stared at Bai Chongxi for a long time, then suddenly smiled and asked, "You say, if our army goes all out to fight the New Fourth Army, what will be the consequences?" How will Yan'an react? ”

Chen Bui, who was next to him, was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "No, chairman, if this happens, I'm afraid it will be used by the Japanese army." ”

Jiang Zhong shook his hand and said, "Don't talk about that, just talk about the military." ”

Bai Chongxi thought for a while and said: "If our army is well deployed, we can first cut off the communication between Shandong and Jiangsu, and then concentrate our forces to attack one of them, the New Fourth Army is a unit with guerrilla warfare as the main method of operation, and the troops are very dispersed, if the interspersed is successful, it can be divided into several main forces, and then annihilated individually, I believe that as long as it takes two or three months to lay out and fight in two or three months, there will definitely be no New Fourth Army in Jiangnan within half a year."

As for Yan'an, they will definitely retaliate, especially our troops in Hebei and Shandong, I am afraid that they will be attacked, but then again, although our troops in Hebei and Shandong are weaker, they believe that it is still no problem to defend it. ”

Jiang Intermediary immediately understood, this Bai Chongxi was going to exchange Hebei and Shandong for Anhui and Jiangsu, but was it worth it? Jiang thought about it.

Chen Bui next to him was afraid that Jiang Intermediary would give an order, which would eventually lead to the collapse of the overall situation in Jiangnan. Hurriedly said, "Chairman, this matter is very easy to handle, we don't have to make such a big move." ”

He Yingqin asked, "Easy to do?" The New Fourth Army also has 100,000 horses, Ye Ting, a famous general of the Northern Expedition, Chen Yi and others are all generals, to be honest, there are 200,000 soldiers and horses, and it is difficult to exterminate the New Fourth Army. ”

Jiang Zhong looked at He Yingqin and nodded, on one side of the loss is the Gui family, and on the other side is the Gu Zhu family who listens to his words, of course He Yingqin is not in a hurry.

Chen Bui said, "To put it bluntly, the New Fourth Army is still under the national army system, and he doesn't listen to our words in Chongqing, but what about Yan'an's orders? Didn't he, Mao Yongzhi and others always like to flaunt justice? We can also learn from it, chairman... We are like this, like this, in this way, public opinion will definitely fall to us, and he Yan'an will have to move. ”

Jiang Agent's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he laughed and said, "Okay, okay, just do it." As he spoke, Jiang Zhong shook his head again and said, "What if the New Fourth Army doesn't listen, or Yan'an doesn't obey?" ”

Chen Bui said hehehe, "With this time as a buffer, our army must have been able to arrange everything, and moreover, it can also do a good job in defensive operations against Japan to prevent the joke of praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches." ”

Jiang Intermediary snorted and said, "Then let's do it." ”

Chen Bui wiped his sweat, sighed in his heart, and retreated to prepare for errands.

-- The military headquarters of the New Fourth Army

"The survival of the nation is based on the success or failure of the War of Resistance; The success or failure of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression was based on the strictness of military discipline. In the early days of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Eighteenth Group Army and the New Fourth Army were able to abide by orders, unite and be sincere, and use restraint to defend themselves against insults, and there was no lack of meritorious achievements.

Since the New Fourth Army hopes to go north to resist Japan, its loyalty and courage are commendable, and it is now ordered that the whole army should go north to the north of the Yellow River by 31 May, and its defense area will be designated as the Luji Theater.....

"Okay, don't read it." Xiang Ying waved his hand and said, "Everyone heard it, it sounds good, that is, we all want to leave Jiangnan and go to Shandong and Hebei, what is this called?" A soldier who surrenders without a fight? ”

Chen Yi shouted, "He is dreaming!" We have managed to defeat so many guerrilla zones, and we are gone, what will we do with these places? To whom? To Han Deqin or to Li Pinxian? If they want to be able to hold it, can he Lao Jiang run to Chongqing? ”
