"Are you coming?"

"But I'm in a hurry, seeing that it's getting dark, why hasn't Brigade Commander Ouyang come back yet!"

"yes!"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

"Don't worry, you have to be a little patient, when Brigadier Ouyang arrives, we must greet him with the most enthusiastic applause and shouts, so that Brigadier Ouyang can feel the sincerity of the big guy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Wu Laosan, don't be foolish, don't come before the brigade commander comes, you old boy will light the firecrackers!"

The people in the White Tiger Base Area were all very enthusiastic about Ouyang's return.

Even though political commissar Zhao Gang and the head of the new regiment, Long Dagu, have done a lot of work, resolutely demanding that they should not be extravagant and wasteful, resolutely not engage in big scenes, and resolutely act in a low-key manner, they still have no effect, and they cannot hold back the enthusiasm of the local people at all.

Ouyang, the prestige in the White Tiger Base is too high and too high!

As Liu Tongluo said: Even if the head of the headquarters comes, there is no such big scene and big battle!

At the end of November 1938, the people in the base area were in an uproar when they learned the news that Ouyang had been killed in Wengcheng.

The sound of grief resounded in the sky!

On the day of receiving the news, every household in the entire base area and several surrounding counties wept bitterly, showing a sea of tears.

What's more, he set up an immortal tablet for Ouyang, prayed every day, and prayed for Ouyang's blessings.

Looking forward to Ouyang's early return!

Ouyang, for the people of the White Tiger Base Area, that is the sky!

-- the God of their hearts!

From the end of September 1937, Ouyang led his troops here and established the first base area, the White Tiger Base Area.

From that day on, the people of the White Tiger Base Area and the surrounding villages and towns were no longer harassed by the Japanese army and bandits, and lived a peaceful life.

Moreover, Ouyang often led the team to help the people in the base area to do farm work, build houses, and give more rice and noodles during the New Year's holidays.

Especially last year's cold winter, which was the coldest winter in recent decades, Ouyang sent winter clothes and quilts to the big guys in the base area, sending warmth.

Ordinary people may not be good at words or expressing their thoughts, but they all know a little bit in their hearts.

――That is, without Ouyang, there would be no happy life for them now!

The Chinese people are the most grateful people!

Now, Ouyang is not dead, and he is about to return to the White Tiger Base in glory, where can the people still sit still?

Ordinary people, whether they are men, women and children, or children waiting to be fed, all gathered at the entrance of the village, looking forward to Ouyang's return!

~~~~~

After about ten minutes, a soldier rushed towards the crowd with great excitement, and shouted again and again: "It's coming!" Our brigade commander is here! ”

The moment the words fell, the whole village was boiling!

"Crackling~~~~Crackling~~~~!"

Countless firecrackers exploded in unison, accompanied by large expanses of smoke rising into the air, and the rising smoke was instantly enveloped in the sky above the base ground.

"Knock~~~~~~Knock~~~!"

Firecrackers explode and drums sound in unison!

For a while, everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles and excited looks, and the entire base area became a sea of joy!

Ouyang returned to the base in the midst of everyone's cheers and shouts.

Seeing this situation, Ouyang's heart was moved inexplicably, and Ouyang couldn't help but shed tears under the emotion.

Ouyang endured himself and didn't let the tears flow, but no matter how hard Ouyang tried, it was still useless, and tears rained down!

"I, Ouyang, how can I be, how can I be, how can I be!"

"The people love me so much, the next moment I will die, and I have no regrets!"

The news of Ouyang's immortal return, along with the big disturbance in Shanghai a few days ago, also spread throughout Taihang Mountain and North China.

In particular, the big commotion in Shanghai made the listeners smack.

destroyed the Japanese military police headquarters in Shanghai;

bombing the Japanese base in Chongming;

riots in the Japanese Concession;

the breach of the Qianqiao concentration camp;

All of this sounds like a story.

The first reaction of everyone who hears this news is that this is impossible!

This must be fake news!

What shocked everyone's attention the most was that after this series of big movements, Ouyang and tens of thousands of prisoners of war should have no chance of surviving, but they miraculously escaped from the pursuit of tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers and evaporated in Shanghai!

For a time, the Chinese troops in North China were shocked!

The 135th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army.

Chen Qibu.

"It's amazing, it's amazing!"

"This Brigade Commander Ouyang of the 512 Brigade is simply a god!"

"Don't say anything, just rush at the fact that they can rescue tens of thousands of Chinese troops in Shanghai, and I, Qiu Mingyi, obey him!"

"Yes, I heard that this battle destroyed dozens of planes of the little devils!"

"I can't imagine it!"

The regiment commander Chen Qi also laughed and said: "Brothers, the 512 Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is the brother unit of our 135th Regiment, and it is also the great benefactor of our 135th Regiment. Pass my order, order the soldiers to put on a feast, let's celebrate the 512 Brigade! ”

"Yes, Tuanza!"

The officers of the national army present responded excitedly in an extremely loud voice.

The 35th Brigade of the 6th Army of the Jin Sui Army.

Poplar Ming Department.

"The battle on the beach is beautiful!"

"This battle has played out the blood of our people and the prestige of our people!"

"Yes, it is a miracle to be able to create such a big movement in a place like Shanghai, where tens of thousands of Japanese troops look around!"

"What's even more unimaginable is that the people of the Green Gang and Beihongmen, they dare to directly fight the little devils, just by virtue of this, Lao Tzu has to say admiration to them!"

"Brigade seat, the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army has won this battle, shouldn't we celebrate!"

~~~~~~~

Headquarters of the Commander of the 2nd Theater of Operations.

Yan Xishan was answering the phone at the moment, his expression was quite solemn, "Sun Chu, you are the commander of the 33rd Army, he Zhang Zhengyu is your subordinate, how to fight the Morita Brigade of the little devil, you don't have to say more to me, I don't want the process, I just want the result!" ”

"What? You said that the Morita Brigade had nearly 10,000 troops? And the there is an artillery wing and a cavalry wing? ”

"Aren't you kidding me?"

"I don't want to listen to your reasons, if your 33rd Army is instigated, you can say it directly. I tell you, there is no discussion on this matter. ”

"Huh? You said that damn Ouyang of the 512 Brigade didn't die? ”

"What? The big movement on the beach was also caused by them? You're not kidding me. ”

"Huh? Okay, I know, since he is not dead, and their defense area is adjacent to Zhang Zhengyu's independent 6th Brigade, then you can ask them for help in this matter, right? ”

"Are they still hesitating? Okay, leave this matter to me, I'll contact the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army directly, um, um, um, that's it! ”

The phone hangs up.

Suddenly, Yan Xishan's face looked particularly angry.

~~~~~~~~

8 p.m. that day.

White Tiger Base Area Operations Conference Room.

After listening to the two-hour work report of Zhao Gang and Liu Tongluo, Ouyang couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"Brigade commander, that's basically the case, my 512 Brigade will divide its troops into three routes to advance into North China and Jinnan, and the headquarters has been decided." Liu Tonggong said.

"Hmm!"

At that moment, Ouyang also nodded heavily.

Political Commissar Zhao Gang said: "Brigade commander, now the vast majority of the 115th and 120th Divisions under the jurisdiction of our Eighth Route Army and our 129th Division have gone behind enemy lines to open up new base areas.

Amazing results!

Let's not talk about the 115th Division and the 120th Division, let's just talk about our 129th Division. ”

Zhao Gang said: "Let me first talk about the development of the 385th Brigade of our division.

The 385th Regiment of the 769th Brigade, a few months ago, had transferred 4 companies to form an eastward column with the cavalry company directly under our 129th Division.

Led by Comrade Chen Zaidao (founding general), deputy commander of the 386th Brigade, it entered the east of the Pinghan Railway (now Beijing-Hankou) and opened up an anti-Japanese base area in southern Hebei;

Today, in August, Comrade Xie Fuzhi (founding general), political commissar of the 385th Brigade, led the first battalion of the brigade organ and the 3rd battalion of the independent detachment from the Taihang Mountains to the area east of the Pinghan Railway, formed a new Hebei-Henan detachment, and opened up a huge Hebei-Henan base area.

Zhao Gang said excitedly: "In just over a year, the 385 Brigade has opened up 22 large and small anti-Japanese base areas in one company, and the regiment-level combat units under its headquarters have increased from the original 4 to 9 today, and its total strength has exceeded 20,000 in one fell swoop.

This is still a front-line combat unit!

If you add the local guerrillas and militia, the total number will quadruple from 20,000! ”

Finally, Zhao Gang concluded: "In short, the current achievements of the 385 Brigade are very gratifying, and they have left our 512 Brigade far behind!" ”

When the words fell, Ouyang's heart was like a turbulent wave.

The 385th Brigade actually opened up 22 anti-Japanese base areas;

The number of front-line combat troops exceeded 20,000;

Hearing this, Liu Tongluo and the others present were shocked!

Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao smacked his tongue and said: "A few months ago, our 512th Brigade was the strongest in our 129th Division in terms of number and combat effectiveness, but I can't imagine that in a few months, the development speed of the 385th Brigade has far surpassed ours!" ”

Deputy Chief of Staff Ding Wei said in a deep voice: "Now we have to catch up!" ”

"yes!"

At the moment, Ouyang was also full of emotion.

In just one year, the number of the main force of the 385 Brigade alone has reached 20,000, and the total strength of all the units of the entire Eighth Route Army is at least 100,000.

Compared with the tens of thousands of people when the Eighth Route Army was just reorganized, the total strength of the front-line combat units has increased several times!

Although Ouyang is familiar with history and knows that our party and army are developing rapidly, it is one thing to know about this, and it is another thing to have personal experience.

What a lucky thing it is to be able to be in the midst of the rolling torrent of history and see with your own eyes the vigorous growth of our army!

The development of the Eighth Route Army is really too fast and too fast!

Even Ouyang himself was caught off guard!

The 512 Brigade is lagging behind!

The first update was sent, and there is still a second update today. When you're away from home, there are fewer updates, forgive me!
