Chapter 689: Joint War of Resistance
On May 12, just after dawn, on the embankment of the Yellow River in Zhaokou, a group of GJ officers surrounded a bald old man in his fifties, dressed on the field, surrounded by three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry post, and was heavily guarded.

"Song Gong, what do you think about the flooding of the Yellow River?"
Lao Jiang held the battle of civilization in his hand, and while walking, he looked at the water of the Yellow River rolling in the sky, and asked.
"This plan is dangerous, and it must not be used unless it is absolutely necessary." Cheng Songyun followed behind and reminded solemnly.
"I know, kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred, but what else can we do now to stop the Japanese invaders from continuing to penetrate into the hinterland of our Central Plains, Zhengzhou is our granary, once the granary is owned by the Japanese invaders, what will be the consequences, Song Gong's heart is clear."
"I understand the chairman's thoughts, but at present, it is not yet this time, we have eliminated more than 10,000 Japanese troops in the Xuzhou area, and trapped more than 15,000 people, and the Japanese army's plot may not succeed." Cheng Songyun said.
"Qiyu, what do you think?"
"Chairman of the committee, what my subordinates are worried about is the safety of my eastern Henan, especially Lanfeng, once Lanfeng is lost, Kaifeng will not be guaranteed, and if Kaifeng is lost, then the Zhengzhou and Pinghan lines will be dangerous." Shang Qiyu said.
Lao Jiang nodded, the troops in eastern Henan are empty, if the Japanese army kills from Luxi, then with the current troops in eastern Henan, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist.
"Commission, Luxi Corps emergency telegram!" Lin Wei hurriedly stepped forward from the crowd.
Lao Jiang stopped and looked at Lin Wei.
"The New 37th Brigade of the 1st Division of Honor successfully launched a night attack last night, severely damaging the 50th Wing of the Japanese Army, and once again blowing up the pontoon bridge erected by the Japanese Army on the Yellow River, and our casualties were not large."
"That's good news!" The generals of the first war zone, when they heard the news, showed joy one after another, only a trace of embarrassment flashed on Liu Jingfu's face.
"Yes, Leng Guoguang played well, he should be rewarded!" Lao Jiang also breathed a sigh of relief, and the heavy atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.
He is the commander of the three armed forces, and he cannot only seek one domain, but must consider the overall situation.
If they can't stop the troops of the Tufeiyuan Division, the Fifth Theater must immediately make preparations in advance, and this is a matter of urgency.
Now this news shows that the Luxi Corps and Leng Feng are still sure.
"Commission, Leng Guoguang suggested strengthening the defense force of the Longhai Road Guide and Dangshan line, ensuring the safety of the lifeline to Xuzhou, and strictly preventing the infiltration and destruction of small Japanese troops, and strengthening the vigilance of Lanfeng, an important town in eastern Henan, the Japanese army has always had a great appetite, and the Japanese army will not be able to go south, so it is very likely to change the goal, sneak attack Lanfeng, and threaten Zhengzhou and Pinghan Railway!"
"Song Gong, what do you think of Leng Guoguang's suggestion?"
"Chairman, Lanfeng is an important town in eastern Henan, and it really has to be guarded against." Cheng Songyun thought about it and said.
"Well, then who do you say to send to guard Lanfeng?"
"This ......"
Lanfeng is in the southeast of Kaifeng, it is the gateway of Kaifeng, and its position is important, and it is now the defense of Shang Qiyu's 32nd Army, but the defense line of the 32nd Army is too long, if it is only Lanfeng, the troops are naturally insufficient.
Lao Jiang is also thinking, Shou Lanfeng, he must not send a mediocre talent, and he must be trustworthy.
"Chairman, why don't you transfer the 71st Army?"
"71st Army?" Lao Jiang frowned slightly, the 71st Army was a unit withdrawn from Nanjing, the army commander Wang Jingjiu, the troops were withdrawn to Luoyang to rest and replenish, and they were controlled by the Luoyang Garrison Command.
This Lao Wang and Zhu Shaozhou, the commander of the Luoyang Garrison Command, are old acquaintances, Lao Wang is a big official, Zhu can't manage it, the two don't sign each other, make a fuss, he was angry, and he got rid of Lao Wang's military commander.
The 87th Division of the 71st Army was one of the three major German armament divisions at the beginning, the absolute trump card main force, after the two battles of Songhu and Nanjing, the German armament division basically existed in name only, and the equipment was almost lost.
Except for the return of some personnel, it is basically a rebuilt army.
After the reconstruction, the 71st Army had more than one 87th Division, the 88th Division was also merged into the 71st Army, and the 61st Division was transferred from the Eighth Army directly under the Military Commission.
The 71st Army has gone through almost half a year of rest and replenishment, although it is not far from its heyday, but it can be regarded as a GJ force that can be taken out.
This is still Lao Jiang's descendant.
Wang Jingjiu was dismissed, and the post of commander of the 71st Army has been vacant for several days.
Who can do that?
In Yuncheng, Leng Feng personally instructed the 22nd Division on how to build ant-shaped trenches, organize the people of nearby villages, temporarily evacuate their homes in an orderly manner, and mobilize young people to assist in building fortifications.
The method used by Leng Feng is very simple, and the government agencies in Luxi are still complete, and Han Xiangfang is in charge of Shandong, and there are still some things to do in the administration, although there are many problems.
But at this time, the main contradiction was shifted, and besides, Leng Feng's regulations were very strict, and he brought together the local prestige leaders, and in three or two sentences, these guys were obedient.
No one dares to be disobedient, even if he is unhappy in his heart, he does not dare to have any dissatisfaction, or change.
Leng Feng has killed enough "traitors" in Jining, such a murderous demon king in the world, committing a crime in his hands, and framing you with a "traitor", you will die in vain, and your reputation will also stink.
If he can be gentle and drizzle, moisturizing things silently, Leng Feng doesn't want to use such a thunderbolt method, this is also no way, he has no time to reason with these people and talk about national righteousness.
The government agencies are still here, but I'm afraid that when the time comes, if you want to hire people, there will be no one, that's really sad, Leng Feng is not a god, and he can mobilize and organize a county town and hundreds of thousands of people in just a few hours, which is unrealistic.
The most important thing is to implement the clear of the wall, let the Japanese army in, and want to use the strategy to feed the war to go bankrupt.
Frontal confrontation is undoubtedly a matter of hitting an egg against a stone, and at the moment we can only find another way, starting from somewhere else, and thinking about the logistics of the Japanese army, which seems to be the most effective and direct method at present.
Originally, Leng Feng planned to come to the front of Juancheng earlier, but the defense of Yuncheng really made him feel at ease, and he was waiting for his colleagues in the follow-up troops to stop and re-design and consolidate the fortifications of Yuncheng.
"To the west of Yuncheng, all the people were evacuated, all the food was operated, and not a grain of ...... was given to the Japanese army."
"What about the people who don't want to evacuate?"
"I understand that some people are always hard to leave their homeland, to put it coldly, if you don't want to go, what happens to you when the time comes, then you don't blame us, the road is your own choice, whether it is life or death, you have to bear it, people who don't believe in evil, we have no choice." Leng Feng said.
"All men in the family, over the age of eighteen and under the age of forty-five, must temporarily serve in civilian service, although this is assured, we will arrange the same village together, and then take care of food and drink, the first task of the people is to help us build fortifications, dig trenches, and then help transport ammunition and materials, as well as rescue the wounded, etc., this point, we will organize the division of labor......
"According to the laws and regulations of wartime, in the process of performing tasks, the people must abide by several disciplines like soldiers, the first is that if you are a fugitive, you are equivalent to a deserter, and you can enforce battlefield discipline on the battlefield!"
As soon as these words came out, the back of the neck of everyone who came to the meeting to receive the task couldn't help but feel cold.
"Article 2 ......"
Organizing the masses and mobilizing the masses is obviously not enough to rely on GMD alone, they are too detached from the people, and the key is to rely on the organization, so as to achieve the effect of clearing the wilderness.
So Leng Feng asked Yang Zhiyi to contact the Wuhan Eighth Route Army Office with the XSJ side of Huainan as soon as possible and asked them to come forward to help.
After receiving the telegram from the XSJ Jiangbei detachment, Vice Minister Zhou immediately sent a telegram to the Yan'an side.
Northern Shaanxi, Yan'an, in a cave.
The situation in the Fifth War Zone in Xuzhou has changed, and Yan'an's attention is no less than that of Wuhan, and even the news in some aspects is faster and more well-informed.
"el a. Several telegrams in the night, I am one. I couldn't sleep at night, so early in the morning, I brought Mr. Zhu and Comrade Love, and we discussed how to support the anti-Japanese war in the fifth war zone of GMD. A middle-aged man with a thick Hunan accent lit a cigarette, sandwiched it between the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and took a puff.
"This day one. In the night's effort, this Leng Guoguang ate half of the Japanese army, which is amazing. Mr. Zhu looked at the telegram a little and said in surprise.
"yes, it's amazing that there is such a talent in this GMD." Love exclaimed.
"Now it's a united anti-Japanese front, if it's not united, let's just talk about it in private, don't spread it outside, the impact is not good."
"Lao Mao is right, we have a lot of spies in Yan'an." Mr. Zhu said with a smile.
"You're right, no matter what, it's our own people now, what's more, this Leng Guoguang is so young and hasn't experienced that, can you fight for it?" Love suggested.
"This is not good now, Lao Jiang is not at ease with us now, this Leng Guoguang is now one of the few generals who can support him in his hands, and he is also his protégé of Huangpu, if this gives him an excuse, it is not conducive to the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War."
"Lao Mao is right, it's not the time yet, but El has seen him once in private, and he looks good, a young man who has a lot of heart to serve the country." Mr. Zhu said.
"That's what you can win over......"
"Comrade Love, let's not talk about this first, the current battle situation in Xuzhou is tense, the No. 84 operational order of the Japanese army base camp is obviously for the 500,000 elite GJ troops in the Xuzhou area, the Japanese army occupies Mengcheng, enters Wuyang, threatens Yongcheng, the southern line of Jinpu Road is urgent, the northern line, although Jining, Yanzhou and other places have been recovered by me, but the Japanese army has mobilized heavy troops to the south, Yanzhou and Jining can be defended, but how long they can hold it, this is also unknown."
"The Japanese army is the way to encircle Wei and save Zhao, but this move does hit our waists, fortunately, this Leng Guoguang saw through the Japanese army's plan, and laid out first, and the battle situation took a turn, otherwise, the fifth theater now has to withdraw troops to protect 500,000 elites." Mr. Zhu sighed.
"Yes, Leng Guoguang is doing this, it is tantamount to putting himself in danger, he is attacked on three sides, he has a division, although he is strong, how can he be able to defeat so many enemies, and it is difficult for a hero to defeat four hands." Love also expressed concern.
"Boss, the 129th Division and the 115th Division are advancing to the southeast of Hebei, what are the recent movements?"
"Why did Lao Mao suddenly ask about this?"
"It's okay, I'll just ask casually to see if we can send some troops to harass the Japanese behind enemy lines and relieve their frontal pressure."
"To alleviate their frontal pressure, it is better to attack their supply lines, the Japanese army's battle line is so long, and the supplies are all transported by rail and road......" Mr. Zhu said more smoothly, and suddenly understood, "Lao Mao, do you have an idea?" ”
"Hehehe, I really can't hide anything from Mr. Zhu, your pair of discerning eyes!" The ZX has finished smoking a cigarette and is switching to a second one.
"Lao Mao, just tell me, this front line is like fighting fires."
"El said in the telegram that this Tufeiyuan division has a high degree of mechanization, and the entire division and its subordinate troops have 200 artillery pieces, as well as tanks and automobiles, adding up to more than 500, such a large mechanized army, the dependence on logistics and supplies is very heavy, so to block the Japanese army to cut off the Longhai railway line, it is important to block it head-on, but it is also necessary to seize the life gate of the Japanese army, so that he can retract his head in order to fight."
"Well, that makes sense!"
"At present, GJ is the main force of the frontal war of resistance, and we, the Eighth Route Army, advance behind the enemy line, is the main force of the war of resistance behind the enemy, so the frontal blocking will be handed over to Mr. Jiang, and the destruction behind the enemy will be handed over to us, so I plan to fight a few ambush battles against the important supply lines of the Japanese army, one pull, which can supplement ourselves, and second, it can also give strong support to the five theaters!"
"Yes, but our base areas are still in the initial stage, and if we start a large-scale ambush war, will it cause the Japanese army to turn around and focus on us?"
"Comrade Love has been thinking too much, at this stage the Japanese army will not regard us as an important opponent, at least we must separate the victory from it and Mr. Chiang." ZX smiled.
"Yes, that makes sense."
"In addition, we have to give ......"
"Lao Mao, is this appropriate?"
"I think it's very suitable, in terms of attacking strength, although we have won a few battles, the overall strength is still weaker than the GMD side, if they really think like that, that's a good thing." Mr. Zhu first agreed.
"Lu Xi is now under the iron fist of Leng Guoguang, at this time, he will never allow anyone to destroy his overall anti-Japanese situation, so we can rest assured that this will not be a conspiracy, send a telegram to the Central Plains Bureau, and ask them to fully cooperate with Leng Guoguang's plan to clear the strong walls in Luxi and eastern Henan."
"I think so." Mr. Zhu said solemnly.
The confidential secretary was called in, and soon several secret messages were quickly sent out from the caves in northern Shaanxi.
