Ma Qian, with more than 20 militiamen, saw the Japanese torches coming from a distance with weapons, and shot from a distance, but the Japanese army only separated a small number of men and horses to follow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the anti-Japanese ditch, the torches shone like day, Kuroda looked at the people who were forced to gather in a pile by bayonets with satisfaction, touched his chin and said, "Kill them all!" ”

The surrounding Japanese army had long known that this time it was going to kill all the people in this area, a straight machine gun was erected, and the villagers looked at the surrounding Japanese soldiers in horror. Before the villagers could react, countless bullets followed the swing of the katana and shot into the villagers' bodies.

Ma Qian, who was far away on the other side, suddenly heard bursts of gunfire in the distance, and couldn't help but jump in his heart, he looked in the direction of the anti-Japanese ditch, and only felt that something very bad had happened.

The sky gradually brightened, a group of crows flew over from a distance, the blood on the bayonet slowly dripped down, Kuroda stood on the high post, looked at the dense corpses in the ditch and said with a smile, "Yo Xi, this is the end of getting close to the Red Party and the Eighth Route Army, come here, cut off the heads of these people, and build a Jingguan Jigong!" ”

The long-bearded old man standing next to him couldn't bear to look at it, and sighed, "Why bother, it's really hurting the heavens and the peace." ”

Kuroda squinted at the old man, this old man turned out to be a Xiucai of the former Qing Dynasty, because of the endless wars in China during the Republic of China and has always been nostalgic for the former Qing Dynasty, after getting Pu Yi to establish Manchukuo, he made up his mind to defect to the Japanese, this time to assist Kuroda in encirclement and suppression, people like him, there are many people in this operation.

Kuroda ignored the old man and said, "Okay, Mamuchi Village has been slaughtered, let's go to the next village, our task is still very heavy, damn the Eighth Route Army and the Red Party, it's all their fault!" ”

-- Lianyungang

Lin Sanhu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, the people around him were in a hurry, the map hanging on the wall was constantly supplemented, and countless small pieces were drawn out on the map of Shandong, and such small pieces were still increasing.

"The number of troops sent by the devils is about the same as that provided by the intelligence, there are nearly 200,000 combat troops, and our base areas in Shandong are divided into twenty or thirty large blocks by roads, railways, and mountains, and then each large block continues to be divided, and the direction of their troops is from north to south, from west to east, a large block, a large piece of cleanup, in the past three days, there have been more than 200 villages in Dezhou and Liaocheng alone that have been slaughtered by the devils, of which no more than 30% of the villages have been safely transferred by us, and our soldiers have suffered more than 5,000 casualties. The devil is a massacre this time, all the villages are burned and looted, and the villagers we safely transferred have nothing to eat when they go back, and now it's winter, and I don't know what to do. And these villagers are not really safe anymore, the devils are surrounded, and now there are still villagers being hunted down and slaughtered. Wang Bingzhang pointed to the map and introduced the enemy situation and said.

"It's too much.... The devil is defeating each of us with superior forces. And then use the three-light policy to destroy the possibility of our recovery, what a ruthless method. Lin Sanhu clenched his fists, his 115th division from Yan'an to Shanxi and then all the way to Shandong, no one knows better than him how the Shandong base area has been from not being trusted to now covering nearly 100 counties and cities in Shandong, countless battles and cadres, party members to lead by example to make the people of Shandong gradually accept, trust how much effort and hard work has been paid, Lin Sanhu only felt that his head kept rising, he looked at the map and said, "How many troops can we concentrate in Shandong?" Are the folks elsewhere starting to shift? ”

Wang Bingzhang replied, "There are about 100,000 combat troops that can be concentrated, and the main force of our 115th Division has been brought out by us. My opinion is that while we should order the troops in Shandong to concentrate and contain the enemy, we should immediately return to Shandong with the main force, and then let the 129th Division fight on the outer front and break the main force of the Japanese army together. ”

Lin Sanhu looked at the map, shook his head after a long time and said, "No, the purpose of the Japanese army is to completely defeat our Shandong base area, that is, our 115th Division, and now our main force has been brought to Lianyungang by us, and they can't find us in Shandong, so they can only clean up one area at a time, but this also makes their forces dispersed, if we concentrate to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese army, we will fall into the hands of the Japanese army, and they will also concentrate the main force to fight a positional war with us, Then we will continue to increase reinforcements by sea and Shanhaiguan, we can't consume them now, and we must not do this! ”

Wang Bingzhang thought about it and felt that what Lin Sanhu said made sense, but he couldn't think of what to do, although the Japanese army divided its troops this time, there were at least three or four brigades covering each other on each road, and the distance between the roads was also extremely close.

Lin Sanhu walked around a few times and said, "The essence of war is the initiative in combat, whoever has the initiative is more likely to win the war, and now what we have to do is to take back the initiative!" I immediately wrote a telegram and sent it to Yan'an! ”

-- Yan'an

Chairman Mao, Mr. Zhu and others also gathered together at this time, looking at the map on the wall without speaking, from time to time Zhou Guansheng came in with a piece of information, and then a small piece was dyed black, which means that another area was completely slaughtered by the Japanese army, leaving no chickens and dogs.

"Chairman, this is Lin Sanhu's telegram." Zhou Guansheng took the telegram and handed it to Chairman Mao, Chairman Mao waved his hand, Mr. Zhu took it, looked at it, looked at it for a while, raised his head and said, "Lin Sanhu suggested that retreat is the advance, the Japanese army's blockade line has been basically structured, we can choose some places with open terrain to concentrate the surrounding troops to break through to the south, the Japanese army will definitely pursue, Lin Sanhu will take the main force back, find a way to hit him, cut off his finger." ”

"Cut off his fingers? Now the devil wants to completely slaughter Shandong! Is it good to just cut off his finger? Chairman Mao said angrily, "Damn Okamura Ningji, if he dares to do such tricks in Hebei." We can send troops to destroy him in three ways, but Shandong is isolated and helpless, and only the New Fourth Army can rely on, but the base area in northern Jiangsu is also surrounded by strong enemies, and it has just been established, which is the critical moment of development..."Chairman Mao said, clenched his hat in annoyance, and threw it on the ground fiercely.

Zhu Lao is always the person in charge of the military, he knows that he has to stand up at this time, he said to Chairman Mao, "Chairman, there are only two ways to the situation in Shandong now, one is that each small base area is fighting separately and looking for opportunities to break through, and the second is to unite, but in this way, if the number of troops is large and the target is large, it will definitely become the object of pursuit by the Japanese army." And we can't cover too many people. ”

Chairman Mao thought about it, suddenly turned around, picked up the telegram, looked at it carefully, looked at the map again, touched his nose and said, "What does Lin Sanhu mean... Maybe it's not what you said, boss. ”

Mr. Zhu said strangely, "No, right?" Am I mistaken? ”

Chairman Mao shook his head and said, "I think he wants to do this... The devil's current attack is from west to east, from north to south, in fact, the number of Japanese troops in the southeast direction is not much, and it will take time to kill people, if we give up part of the area, and then concentrate on breaking the blockade line and breaking through to the south. The Japanese army will definitely follow, then the Japanese army in the northwest of Shandong will be greatly reduced, and our main force can break through there to fight the Japanese army, simply put, the people to the south, the troops to the north! ”

Mr. Zhu looked at the map, nodded slowly and said, "He beats him, I beat mine, you come here, I'll go over there, turn over and fight, okay, wow, in this way, it will change from our passive to our initiative, this is a good fighting method, why didn't Lin Sanhu say it directly?" ”

Chairman Mao sighed and said, "But there is a price to be paid for such a tactic, the speed of the villagers is slow, what if they are caught up by the devils?" The places we abandoned were blocking the Japanese army with their lives, what about the people in these places? This is Liu Bei's crossing the river with the people, using the bodies of the common people to block the enemy's iron hooves, although Lin Sanhu thought of it, but he didn't dare to say it directly..."

When Zhou Guansheng heard Chairman Mao say this, he couldn't help but have a flash in his eyes, Lin Sanhu didn't want to say it directly, for fear of bearing responsibility, but he wanted the central government to think of such a tactic and let the central government bear such a responsibility in the future. Zhou Guansheng knew the severity, such a thought was just put in his heart, and said in his mouth, "Maybe Comrade Lin Sanhu really didn't think of it, chairman, now the devils are implementing the three-light policy, and the villagers will be slaughtered by the devils if they don't leave, which is completely different from the situation when Cao Mengde went to Xinye in the Three Kingdoms, Cao Mengde is not ready to slaughter the people of Jingzhou, but the current Japanese army really wants to kill all our people, I propose, just follow the chairman's idea just now, although there will be sacrifices, but compared to this, they will fight separately, Judging by the losses of each break, such a sacrifice is small but worthwhile. ”

Chairman Mao glanced at Zhou Guansheng gratefully, he looked at the map, nodded, and then turned back to Mr. Zhu and asked, "Mr. Zhu, you are a military expert, do you think there is anything wrong with my tactics just now?" ”

Mr. Zhu shook his head and said, "I think this method is very good, in addition, I suggest that the Taihang Mountain Base Area, Suiyuan, and Shanxi all move, attack all parts of Hebei respectively, attract the Japanese army to return to help some troops, and the New Fourth Army will take over Lianyungang and other places to ensure that there is no vacuum in the local strength of our party, and then it will depend on the command art of our Comrade Lin Sanhu." ”

In terms of operational command, Chairman Mao has an extraordinary trust in Lin Sanhu, in the past in the Jinggangshan period, Lin Sanhu was his most trusted general, and the same is true at this time, he said, "We are in Yan'an, and we can only be Zhuge Liang's doctrine, how to fight, or look at the commanders and fighters on the front line, in addition, we must mobilize our public opinion, in the country and even the world to criticize the atrocities of the Japanese army in Shandong, and give political pressure!" ”

-- Lianyungang

Lin Sanhu looked at the long telegram, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly and said, "Okay!" The Central Committee has already given instructions, immediately contact Commander Chen, and ask them to take over from the New Fourth Army, all troops, go back to Shandong! ”

-- Jinan

Okamura Ningji smiled at the battle reports that kept coming, the increasing number of enemies annihilated and the number of people dealing with the chaos represented the credit one by one, he could already see that after the completion of the battle, the scene of kneeling under the iron hooves of the Japanese army in various places, what made him even happier was that just like he imagined, a lot of wealth was hidden among the people in Shandong, although taxes were reduced in many places in North China, but the materials obtained this time have completely made up for the loss, and he has obtained a lot of precious metals, This is an important resource that Japan desperately needs at this time, and it will be a great credit for these things to be shipped to Tokyo, when a man walks in and knocks on the door and says, "Report!" ”

Okamura Ningji looked up and saw that it was Yuan Shu, nodded and said, "Yuan Jun, you are here, come in, this time our operation is extremely successful, and your intelligence department has contributed a lot." ”

Yuan Shu nodded hurriedly and said modestly, "It's all the imperial army's bravery, we're just icing on the cake." ”

Okamura Ninji stood up, looked at the map and said, "In less than five days, we have obtained the results of the past year, which means that our plan is extremely successful, but it is a pity that we have not found the main force of the Eighth Route Army so far, especially Lin Sanhu, the 115th Division of their Eighth Route Army, and none of the prisoners we captured know their movements, which makes me very worried." ”

Yuan Shu nodded and did not speak, and Okamura Ningji continued, "Therefore, you and your subordinates must once again play a role and find a way to find the 115th Division and Lin Sanhu, if we can defeat or even eliminate them, our Shandong public security war will be truly successful." ”

Yuan Shu immediately said: "Resolutely complete the task." ”

Okamura Ninji nodded and said, "The rest of the intelligence officers will also cooperate with you, so go down." ”

After waiting for Yuan Shu to go down, Okamura Ningji picked up the phone again, dialed a number and said, "Hey, activate Black Butterfly, the task is to find the 115th Division Lin Sanhu!" ”

After Yuan Shu left Okamura Ningji's office, he did not stop, and immediately began to set up, letting his subordinates disguise themselves as ordinary people and the Eighth Route Army to go to various places in Shandong to find Lin Sanhu's traces.

After the arrangement was completed, Yuan Shu packed up his things, walked out of the temporary headquarters, looked at the lively street market outside, he smiled, and walked towards his residence, suddenly, a car passed him by a wall, and when he looked again, Yuan Shu was gone.
