After March, the temperature starts to warm up. Zheng Weiguo decided to transfer the Yu Xuezhong Division of the Third Group Army, the Guo Jiqiao Division of the Fifth Group Army, the Ma Fawu Division of the 24th Group Army, and the 49th Army and the 53rd Army to the northeast so that they could be redressed and reorganized nearby. At the same time, it is also to prepare for a counteroffensive, after all, if you want to land on the Japanese archipelago, you need a lot of troops.

Before going north, Mr. Zhu, who was sitting in North China, suggested that the devils in Ping and Tianjin should be cleaned up first. At first, it looks like an eyesore, and the people of Pingjin and Tianjin are anxious for liberation, and after a long time, they are afraid that the hearts of the people of Pingjin will be cold.

Zheng Weiguo asked: "What does Mr. Zhu mean to let us draw two armies to fight?" ”

Political Commissar Cheng shook his head and said, "That's not necessary!" After Division Commander Liu and Mr. Nie led their troops north, Mr. Zhu reorganized the local troops in Hebei, and there were already two corps, so I wanted them to practice their hands! However, they don't have many heavy weapons, and they want the war zone to allocate a batch. ”

Zheng Weiguo thought for a while and quickly agreed, because now to resume railway transportation inside and outside the Guan, Beiping and Tianjin are two unavoidable hurdles. Moreover, with the secret entry of American submarines into Dalian and Port Arthur, Japan's naval superiority in Tianjin was also wiped out.

The Eighteenth Army had made a lot of preparations beforehand, including materials and intelligence, and even conducted several exercises in Baoding. Because after receiving the order from the second theater of operations, the battle began very quickly.

Basically, the 18th Army was fighting, and the Second Theater supported some artillery and armored units, and the air force was also dispatched to bomb Tanggu Harbor and several larger Japanese camps.

It is worth mentioning that for the first time, helicopter units were applied to real combat. When breaking through the city defenses of Beiping and Tianjin. Twenty-four R4 helicopters, equipped with 12.7 mm large-caliber machine guns, suddenly rose into the air and circled behind the Japanese flanks to strafe them. The Japanese army, which was caught off guard, suddenly collapsed.

The ensuing battle went well, and several Japanese troops in Tianjin surrendered directly. It's a bit funny to say that the Japanese army in Pingjin did not strengthen the fortifications for most of the year, but wanted to earn a sum of money so that they could return to China as soon as possible after the surrender of Japan.

For example, Tianjin has an industrial base, and the imps of the 27th Division did it themselves and made a lot of agricultural machinery to sell to the common people. Not to mention, the Japanese make small and practical things, and they are really popular. Often sold out of stock. However, most of the money was made by second-hand dealers.

Beiping is a bit more miserable. There are only flour mills, match factories and the like, but the devils in Beiping are also very good, they rent the horses, mules and other large livestock of the army to the people outside the city, because there is no cost. made more money than the devils in Tianjin. (Note: Historically, it was the devils in Nangong County who were the first to make agricultural machinery products.) There are more devils who rent big animals. ）

At that time, when this situation was reported to Zheng Huzi. It also surprised him for a while. Don't look at the little devil's tendons, in fact, he is very economically minded, no wonder he can rise quickly after World War II. Because considering this matter, it is not a loss. He ordered the troops not to interfere. First, it has promoted the production of the base areas, and second, it has broken the enemy's fighting spirit, so why not do it?

As a result, the little devil who had been in business for more than half a year really didn't have the will to fight. The Eighth Road side held back a lot of energy, and before the official start of the fight, the little devil took the initiative to surrender. The Japanese army in Taiyuan learned that the Pingjin side had surrendered, and they also pulled the white flag without saying a word, and it seems that surrender is indeed contagious.

However, the eight roads also encountered tricky problems. After these battles, the Japanese prisoners and overseas Chinese captured a total of more than 100,000, which was the result of a large number of Japanese expatriates after Zheng Huzi took charge of the Second World War Zone, otherwise I am afraid of more. People eat horses every day, even if they eat bran every day, it's an astronomical amount, it's really unbearable.

Political Commissar Cheng asked: "Commander-in-chief, the departments in North China ask for instructions on how to deal with those Japanese prisoners. ”

Zheng Huzi asked: "How did the little devils and Japanese expatriates caught by the Eighth Route Army in Baoding and Shijiazhuang deal with them in the past?" ”

Political Commissar Cheng explained: "Overseas Chinese who have no major criminal deeds are generally placed under residential surveillance and are ready to be repatriated after the war. The captives were kept in centralized custody and reformed by the Japanese Eighth Route of the Anti-War League. But now there are too many prisoners in hand, and there is not so much energy and time to reform, and the Japanese overseas Chinese settlement area is also a big hidden danger, and it is easy to clash with the Chinese people nearby. ”

In fact, the entire World War II zone also faced this problem. In the past, because there were few Japanese prisoners caught, the disposal was relatively casual. After arriving in the Northeast, due to the busy war, most of the prisoners and Japanese overseas Chinese were directly sent to work in the road mines. Now it seems that there is a real need for a uniform standard and perfect rules.

Zheng Huzi thought for a while and said, "Well, it's good to transform a group of Japanese so that we can take over Japan after the war!" However, the personnel must first be screened, and those with blood debts must not be kept! ”

Under Zheng Huzi's arrangement, the Second War Zone specially organized a liquidation committee. The members, they are all experts who used to engage in SF, and if even they think that someone has no blood debt, it is indeed very pure. And Zheng Huzi also used a big killer weapon - set indicators! How many heinous elements must be found in such and such a unit, and the degree to which the task is completed is linked to the level and bonus.

If, after such a review, no blood debt is found, the Second War Zone will be lenient and allow these captives and expatriates to atone for their sins through labor (uninvited is a sin, illegal entry). As long as you are engaged in legal work and have saved enough "atonement money", you can go back to Japan. Of course, the standard of this "atonement fee" is set relatively high, and taking Japanese prostitutes as an example, they will definitely not be able to raise so much if they don't work for ten or eight years.

As for those guys whose hands are stained with the blood of the Chinese, don't think about going back. If the victim's family so requests, a public trial and referendum may be held. If no one is held accountable, they may not be executed for the time being, but they will be sent to the construction site to work as coolies until they can no longer do it. At present, roads are being built everywhere in North China and Northeast China, and there is an urgent shortage of manpower in Northeast China if they want to restore factories and mines.

As soon as the matter of the prisoners was sorted out, Chief of Staff Zhou hurriedly came to report: "Commander-in-Chief, President Roosevelt is urging us to counterattack as soon as possible!" ”

Now President Roosevelt is indeed in a hurry, and if it were not for the consideration of identity and security, he would have gone directly to the Far East to supervise the war. While it was in the interest of the United States to weaken Britain, the demise of Britain was definitely not the outcome that the Americans wanted. But judging from the current situation, they have no choice but to take out Japan as soon as possible.

Zheng Weiguo smiled slightly and said, "Let's go, let's go to the southern suburbs to see how the training of the troops is doing." ”

At present, the Grassland Front Army is on the line from Baicheng to Qiqihar, the First Group Army is on the Changchun and Jilin lines, and the Second Group Army is mainly on the west bank of the Yalu River. None of these units could get out of the way, so they adopted the method of receiving and training at the same time.

The Seventh Group Army, the 49th Army, the 53rd Army, the Third Group Army, the Fifth Group Army, and the 24th Group Army, which had just rushed to the northeast, were all conducting intensive training in Shenyang and other places because they had no combat missions for the time being.

Some people may ask, why do we need to train again? It's been a few years of training! Indeed, from the beginning of cultural education and tactical training to regularization and field operations, the Second Theater has carried out countless rounds of training. Despite this, because the base of the army is too thin, there is still some distance from Zheng Huzi's requirements.

After the opening of the new international communication line, the problem of the lack of weapons in the Second Theater (mainly the lack of heavy equipment and the lack of uniformity) was finally resolved, and even the chairman of the NPC Standing Committee was stained with a lot of light -- the godfather was abducted by a beard, and the chairman of the NPC was very angry, and the US Government was in a hurry to get rid of Japan at this time, and did not want to make any extraneous trouble, so it promised to increase aid to China.

In fact, the input is still so much, but the cost of transportation saved is added to it (note: the cost of transporting materials from the northeast is much lower than that of transporting from Myanmar). In fact, the chairman of the committee was very clear about this matter, but his relatives and subordinates were satisfied when they saw that there was so much American flour to resell. So the committee members had no choice but to continue to "endure humiliation and bear the burden", and then write a hundred Niang Xipi in their diaries.

Without further ado, with the assistance of the United States, the Second Theater has finally begun to standardize, standardize, and order its troops. Strictly speaking, only those who meet the above three points at the same time can be regarded as a regular army (Zheng Huzi cried, finally looking forward to this day, it's really fucking not easy), the previous regularization, field warfare, to say that it sounds like adapting measures to local conditions, in fact, they are all wild fox Zen and wild roads.

Although it does not mean that what will happen after the three modernizations, like the "most regular" US military in the Korean War, it was still the bricks of the "Yeluzi" volunteer army, but this is the direction of the development of the modern army after all. After the reform and opening up, the PLA also had to honestly follow this path. Since sooner or later it is better to come early, it is better to come early than later, so Zheng Huzi is now focusing on this, waiting for the troops to adapt to the new equipment and combat methods before starting in an all-round way.

Anyway, now Japan is a grasshopper after autumn, and it won't be able to jump for a few days. As for the life or death of the British, Zheng Huzi was in a hurry on the surface, but in fact, he was doing it for the American allies, and he didn't care about it at all.

Some people may ask, what if the mustache is ruthless and really does Niu Niu? Chilled salad! Without Japan's response, no matter how ruthless the mustache is, can it still be ruthless to Asia? And if the Germans and Americans were to share the control of Europe and the United States, wouldn't the Sino-American alliance be more solid? There is even the possibility of left and right.

However, according to Zheng Huzi's prediction, Xiaobeard will have to lose in the end. There is no way, now the industrial strength of the United States has faintly surpassed that of Europe, and the industrial cities of Europe are badly damaged, unlike the United States, which has all the tails. But it is certainly impossible to get rid of the mustache in 45 years, and to some extent, the worse the European war, the better it is for China. (To be continued......)
