Hearing that the Independent Regiment had recaptured Heyuan County, Zhao Gang immediately rushed to Heyuan County with a work team to prepare to take over and form the Heyuan County Anti-Japanese Democratic Government.

From now on, there will also be county seats in the base area.

"Lao Li, you still have a way." Zhao Gang said with a smile.

"Chu Yunfei was really forced to give in by you, I really didn't expect this."

"What is this?" Li Yunlong said with a stinky face, "He Chu Yunfei is also the number one person in the northwest of Jin, but if he wants to fight with me Li Yunlong, he is still tender." ”

Wang Ye couldn't help but pour cold water again: "Leader, don't be too happy too early. ”

"What do you mean?" Li Yunlong glared and said, "What do you mean don't get too happy too early?" ”

Wang Ye said: "When I entered the city just now, I found that most of the shops on the street were closed, and the entire street of Dongmen Hengjie was originally a handicraft workshop, but now they are all closed. ”

Ge Erdan said: "There don't seem to be many pedestrians on the street. ”

Zhao Gang said: "This shows that the people of Heyuan County still have resistance to us, but it is normal to have resistance, and it will take time for the change of thinking, but I believe that as long as our work is done properly, the people of Heyuan County can still understand who is the government and political party that really thinks about them." ”

"Commissar, the problem is not here." Wang Ye shook his head and said.

"What?" Li Yunlong said, "So what's the problem? ”

Wang Ye said: "The problem is that Heyuan County may be an empty city. ”

After a pause, he said: "Before the devil puppet army abandoned the city, they may have forcibly moved away the shops, factories and even handicraft workshops in the city, and most of the merchants and rich gentry in the city also moved away, so the market will become so depressed, and the pedestrians on the street will become so few." ”

Zhao Gang said: "That's nothing, as long as the people are still there, the city can be built slowly." ”

Li Yunlong was a little discouraged when he heard this, because he still pointed to getting some benefits from Heyuan County, but now let Wang Ye analyze it like this, he can't get any benefits at all.

"Damn." Li Yunlong said with a dark face.

"How do you talk to Lao Ding and Lao Kong when you go back?"

"They'll say I'm the one who took the benefits."

Wang Ye said: "That won't happen, after all, there are still so many warriors watching." ”

"Outside the city, there are not only the soldiers of our independent regiment, but also more than 10,000 people from the new first regiment and the new second regiment."

"Warriors?" Li Yunlong said, "By the way, Xiao Wang, quickly gather the troops, except for leaving a battalion to garrison Heyuan County, the rest of the troops will immediately pull to Fu'an County." ”

Wang Ye said: "Yes! ”

……

Chongqing Huangshan official residence, Yunxiu Tower.

Tang Zong said respectfully: "Principal, Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang sent a telegram at the same time. ”

"Oh?" Chang Kaishen, who was napping with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, and then said, "I won't read the telegram, pick up the main ones and tell me about them." ”

"Yes." Tang Zong complied.

He also said: "What Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang said in the telegram is actually similar, and the Japanese army deliberately gave them Heyuan County and Fu'an County, which obviously had bad intentions. ”

"Before the Japanese army withdrew, all the materials in the county were looted, and even the squires and wealthy families in the city were forcibly relocated, which were just two empty cities."

"Except for the more than 200,000 hungry people who are waiting to be fed, there is not a single bird feather left."

"Second, the reason why the Japanese army ceded the two county towns was to provoke a military conflict between our Central Army, the Jin Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army, and in fact the Japanese army almost achieved its goal, because after hearing the news, the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army immediately gathered the other two regiments of the 386th Brigade and surrounded Heyuan County."

"Last night, the only brigade of the Jin Sui Army almost broke out into a fierce battle with the independent regiment."

"However, at the last moment, Chu Yunfei still focused on the overall situation and took the initiative to evacuate."

"Chu Yunfei withdrew?" Chang Kaishen's brows furrowed, "Did he give up Heyuan County to the Eighth Route Army?" ”

"Yes." Tang Zong replied yes, and then whispered, "Headmaster, do you know how many troops the Independent Regiment has gathered to surround Heyuan County?"

Chang Kaishen's heart jumped, and he said in a deep voice: "How much? ”

Tang Zong said word by word: "There are thirteen regiments, more than 15,000 people!" ”

Chang Kaishen's eyes widened suddenly, and he immediately scolded: "Niang Xipi, isn't the Eighth Route Army in the northwest of Jin Province only having three regiments of the 386th Brigade?" Why did thirteen regiments suddenly pop up? Does the Communist Party still talk about the rules? I have been expanding my troops indiscriminately like this, and last time more than 100 regiments suddenly appeared, all over North China, and now even in such a corner of the northwest of Shanxi, there are actually more than a dozen regiments? Niang Xipi! Niang Xipi! What are they trying to do? ”

At this moment, Chang Kaishen was really angry, and at the same time, he was inexplicably anxious.

If the Eighth Route Army continues to expand at this rate, will it be necessary? What's wrong?

Thinking of this, Chang Kaishen said: "Call all theaters to immediately stop the offensive against the Japanese army, regardless of the frontal battlefield or the battlefield behind the enemy, stop the offensive against the Japanese army, as for the northwest ...... of Jin."

After a pause, Chang Kaishen said again: "Directly telegraphed Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang, from now on, their operational focus will shift from defending against Japanese aggression to containing the development of the Eighth Route Army, and when necessary, they can consider a certain degree of military cooperation with the Japanese army, with a view to attacking, inflicting heavy losses and destroying the Eighth Route Army." ”

……

Yunqi Town, Sanduotang.

"Brigade, this is a secret message from the chamberlain's room."

Fang Ligong handed over a secret telegram that had just been translated by him to Chu Yunfei's hand.

The telegrams of the national army are divided into grades, and some telegrams with a high level of secrecy need to be translated by Fang Ligong, and even some telegrams must be burned immediately after reading, and the manuscript must never be left.

For example, this secret message in front of you.

After Chu Yunfei finished reading the telegram, his face sank.

Fang Ligong took the telegram back and struck a match to burn the secret telegram.

Looking at the telegram that turned into ashes, Chu Yunfei sighed and said, "I had long expected that this day would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to come so early, so I was in a hurry. ”

"Brigade, the headmaster is also taking precautions in this way."

Fang Ligong said solemnly: "It is true that the independent regiment can no longer be allowed to grow. ”

Chu Yunfei nodded, and said, "So, what does it mean to be a meritorious brother?" ”

Fang Ligong groaned for a while, and said: "Brigade seat, if my judgment is correct, the contraction defense of the Japanese army in Shanxi is only temporary, and there will definitely be some action before the beginning of spring at the latest, so at this stage, we should not act rashly, just recuperate, and wait for the Eighth Route Army to fight with the Japanese army first." ”

Chu Yunfei sighed softly.

……

"Burn after reading?"

Zhu Jiaju's expression was stunned, and he immediately found Liang Gang with the telegram he had just translated.

After reading the secret telegram, Liang Gang's face showed a complicated color, and he muttered: "It's not time, it's not time yet, it's too much to do it now, it's a bit too hasty." ”

Zhu Jiaju said: "Luzao, do you mean that you will not be subject to the order of the monarch outside?" ”

"That's not going to work." Liang Gang said categorically, "The principal's order must be obeyed unconditionally, this is beyond doubt!" ”

Zhu Jiaju said: "The meaning of the brigade seat is that when it is necessary, when the Japanese army launches a sweep against the Eighth Route Army, our 94th Brigade will also send troops to cooperate?" ”

"No, either." Liang Gang frowned.

"How can you help the devil beat his own people."

Zhu Jiaju said: "Then what should I do?" You have to choose the same. ”

"Let's talk about it then, fortunately, the war won't start so soon." Liang Gang sighed and said, "Perhaps, the situation will change again at that time, and we won't have to be in a dilemma." ”

……

Let's go back to the independent regiment.

According to the gourd to draw the scoop, and successfully recaptured the county seat of Fu'an.

As a result, the area of the Fuliangshan base has expanded to thousands of square kilometers, and there are two county seats, with a total population of nearly one million.

It was already a large-scale anti-Japanese base area.

But then again, the foundation of the base area is not yet stable.

Even the anti-Japanese democratic governments in Heyuan and Fu'an counties have not yet been established, and the people in the occupied areas are accustomed to being obedient to the people, and their thinking is a little unturned.

But in any case, the base area has been expanded.

It stands to reason that he should be happy, but Li Yunlong flattened his mouth, and asked who owed him five million.

"Lao Li, you suffered a loss in Fu'an County?" Kong Jie was a little stunned and said, "Liang Gang is more difficult than Chu Yunfei?" ”

"Nope." Wang Ye said, "Liang Gang is more familiar than Chu Yunfei, Chu Yunfei has to wait until our soldiers are pressed to let go, but Liang Gang has already led the troops to evacuate in advance without waiting for our people to arrive, and only left a company to maintain order in Fu'an County, and then as soon as our people arrived, the last company also evacuated immediately." ”

"Isn't that a good thing?" Ding Wei said, "What kind of son is Lao Li born in?" ”

"I'm angry with devils." Li Yunlong said, "Before giving up the two county towns to Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang, I almost moved the valuable guys in the city, and then they were searched by Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang, and when they came to me, there were only two fucking empty cities left, and there were no farts, Lao Ding and Lao Kong, do you think I'm angry?" ”

"Harm, that's it?" Kong Jie said disapprerovingly, "Lao Ding and I have expected it a long time ago. ”

Ding Wei said with a smile: "The devil puppet army and Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang left the gold and silver treasures of the city to you, then it is called a ghost, if this is the case, then we really have to think about it, whether there is any conspiracy in it." ”

Kong Jie persuaded again: "Lao Li, money is something outside the body, people and territory are real." ”

Speaking of this, Kong Jie said again: "Lao Li, you captured two county towns without firing a shot this time, the area of the Fuliang Mountain base area has more than doubled, and the population has also increased several times, it is simply blood to earn, what else is there to be unhappy about you kid?" If I change to my old Kong, I can wake up laughing at night when I dream. ”

"Who said a shot was not fired?" Li Yunlong said angrily, "In Heyuan County, thousands of rounds of live ammunition were still consumed!" I also owe Chu Yunfei a heavenly favor, mother. ”

Hearing this, Ding Wei and Kong Jie also reacted.

"Xiao Wang." Ding Wei said, "The fishing that night was unsuccessful? ”

"It didn't work out." Wang Ye said, "The devil is a good learner, and no matter how much he teases, he can't easily get out of the hole." ”

Ding Wei said: "Actually, this is normal, the Anti-Japanese War has been fought for five years, we are improving, and the little devils are also improving, although some tactics work, they can't be used for the same." ”

Wang Ye said: "Yes, I will have to change to other tricks in the future." ”

Ding Wei said: "Xiao Wang, and Lao Li, I just have something to tell you." ”

After a pause, Ding Wei said again: "The brigade commander recently taught Cheng Blind a trick to engage in siege warfare on Erqin Avenue, judging from the results of the 772nd Regiment, this trick is still very effective against the devils who shrink the defense." ”

"Siege warfare?" Li Yunlong came to his senses and asked, "How do you get it?" ”

Ding Wei said: "Because of the natural defects in the defense of the base area, Cheng Blind is not like us, there are tunnels that extend in all directions to rely on, so we don't have to be so complicated." ”

Li Yunlong said: "Hey, Lao Ding, you directly say the point." ”

"Lao Li, why are you in a hurry?" Ding Wei said angrily.

Wang Ye also smiled and quipped: "The head of the regiment must have a daughter." ”

Li Yunlong glared at him and said, "How do you know that Lao Tzu gave birth to a daughter?" ”

Wang Ye covered his mouth and smiled: "Because people who are anxious usually give birth to daughters. ”

Ding Wei and Kong Jie burst into laughter when they heard this, and Ge Erdan and several other guards didn't dare to laugh, and their faces were red.

"Don't take it for nothing." Li Yunlong said to Ding Wei again, "Old Ding, tell me quickly, how can you besiege it?" ”

Ding Wei said: "In a word, it is to organize the troops into countless small units, day and night, endlessly attack and harass the strongholds, county seats, and capital cities of the Japanese army, so that they can't eat, and they can't sleep well. ”

Speaking of this, Kong Jie hurriedly interrupted: "But declare in advance, Anhua County belongs to my Crouching Tiger Mountain base, Lao Ding and Lao Li, you two are not allowed to rob me." ”

"No one is robbing you." Ding Wei said with a dark face.

"However, Lao County and Sucheng in the north belong to me."

Li Yunlong hurriedly said: "Ping'an County belongs to our independent regiment. ”

Good guys, are they carving up the territory of the northwest of Jin? Really when the devil doesn't exist?

Wang Ye couldn't help but be happy, and said in his heart that if the devils of the 69th Division heard their conversation, he didn't know how to feel? Will it be crazy? Angry?

After a pause, Li Yunlong said again: "Lao Ding, is this the siege battle?" ”

"That's it." Ding Wei nodded and said, "I think this method is very good." ”

Li Yunlong and Wang Ye looked at each other and smiled, and said, "We have used this method once a long time ago. ”

Wang Ye continued: "The sweep that smashed the Second Guards Division before relied on this tactic, but the strength and ambition of the Second Guards Division were seriously mismatched, and as a result, we won twice in a row, and the Second Guards Division was eager to turn back the situation after suffering losses, and the result was wrong again and again, and the fishing was eaten by us and defeated." ”

"Oh yes." Ding Wei patted his thigh and said, "You guys are really similar." ”

Wang Ye said: "However, this time there is no need to divide into so many groups, just take the battalion as a unit, which can not only ensure combat effectiveness, but also achieve the purpose of actual combat training, and can also harass the little devils 24 hours a day, so that they can not eat and sleep in peace, and are on the verge of collapse all the time." ”

……

At the same time, at the headquarters of the First Army in Taiyuan.

After Hanaya saw the list of proposed officers submitted by Ryuichi Sakamoto, he was immediately angry.

Iwamatsu Yoshio, who was reading the battle plan submitted by the 36th Division, said, "Hanaya-kun, what are you laughing at?" Laugh at the plans of the 36th Division? ”

"No, no, no." Hua Gu hurriedly waved his hand.

"What makes me laugh is Ryuichi Sakamoto, a fool who doesn't know the height of the sky."

"Oh?" Iwamatsu Yoshio said with interest, "What did Sakamoto-kun do again, so that Hanaya-kun you gave him an evaluation that I don't know how high the earth is?" ”

"Your Excellency, Commander, look at this."

Hanaya was handing the list in his hand to Yoshio Iwamatsu.

After reading the list, Yoshio Iwamatsu couldn't help but laugh.

"Sakamoto-kun is really cute." Iwamatsu Yoshio said, "A small chief of staff, and just a newly promoted chief of staff, actually dared to recommend to the headquarters the candidates for the joint captains of the three infantry wings of the 69th Division and the captains of the nine infantry brigades, this guy is really arrogant." ”

"Yes." Hanaya said abruptly, "I really think of myself as a character." ”

Iwamatsu Yoshio said, "Even I, without consulting Inoue-kun, did not dare to decide on the choice of the commander of all three infantry wings. ”

"yes." Hanayamasa said, "Inoue-kun is the pride of the Inoue family. ”

However, as he spoke, the smiles on the faces of the two old devils slowly faded.

Immediately afterward, the faces of the two old devils showed deep thought.

Inoue Sadae is a child of the Inoue family, belonging to the typical aristocratic child, and it must be difficult to get along with.

It would be wishful thinking to subordinate a division commander of a noble background to him as a commander.

In this case, it is better to support Sakamoto Taka and Inoue's Sadawei, so that he can firmly control the 69th Division in his own hands through Sakamoto Ryuichi.

At present, the total strength of the First Army is only three divisions and two brigades.

If a division or regiment does not listen to its own greetings, it will be difficult for him as a commander in the future.

Thinking of this, Iwamatsu Yoshio said in a deep voice: "Hanaya-kun, the three co-captain candidates recommended by Sakamoto-kun actually have a certain truth, there is an old Chinese saying, called shame and courage. ”

"What Your Excellency Commander said is very true." Hanaya Masaya also reacted immediately.

"I also think that the candidates recommended by Sakamoto-kun are good and competent."

"Yo Si." Iwamatsu Yoshio nodded happily, and continued, "Then, the candidates for the nine infantry captains will be directly approved by the orders of the headquarters, and the candidates for the three infantry wing commanders will be reported to the front army headquarters and the army headquarters for approval in the name of the First Army Headquarters. ”

"Hello."
