1156 Post-War Commendation Conference, Interesting Facts
Time flickered into the middle of October, and the weather in Sanjin became colder and colder.
It has been nearly half a month since the initial end of the Eighth Route Army's autumn offensive.
This war against the Japanese army, which began with the siege of Taiyuan City by the Eighth Route Army, and then spread to the whole of Shanxi, as well as Luzhong, Luxi, northern Henan, Jiaodong, central Hebei, southern Hebei and even the entire North China, was initiated by the anti-Japanese armed forces dominated by the Eighth Route Army.
This battle.
The wide range of the impact was almost unprecedented for the troops of the Eighth Route Army.
Starting from the Shanxi-Hebei-Lu-Henan base area, the elite troops of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang base area took the lead in launching an offensive, affecting the Taihang and Taiyue base areas, the Hebei-Shandong-Henan base areas, and the southern Hebei base areas.
This was followed by the Beiyue, Jizhong, Jireliao and Jinsui base areas under the Jin-Cha-Ji base area, and even the outer line of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo base area that launched an auxiliary offensive against the Japanese army.
The entire Shandong base area was even more into a pot of porridge, and the soldiers engaged in more than a dozen large-scale sexual confrontations with the Japanese army in the anti-sweeping operations around the Jiaodong base area.
In the end, of course, the Eighth Route Army won this unprecedented autumn offensive.
This was the second large-scale battle launched by the Eighth Route Army since the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, and it won the final victory.
It's also very interesting to say.
The development of this autumn offensive began with the siege of Taiyuan City by the elite troops of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang base area, and after the initial start of the battle, the Eighth Route Army was in full swing and the momentum of the battle attracted almost all the attention of the Japanese army to the Taiyuan area.
Then battles took place in other places, and the siege of the Taiyuan area has also been going on.
It was not until Datong, Zhangjiakou, and Jinmen were broken by the Eighth Route Army, and then to Beiping to suffer a crisis, and Baoding was also fully besieged.
At this time, Taiyuan was still surrounded by the outer line of the Eighth Route Army.
In the end, the troops of the Eighth Route Army completed the set strategic objectives, jumped out of the encirclement before the Kwantung Army, Central China, and South China Front armies of the devils came over, and withdrew to the base areas one after another.
The devil defenders of Taiyuan are still surrounded by the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army in Taiyuan City.
The battles in Datong, Zhangjiakou, Baoding, Handan, Jinan, Jinmen, and Beiping all came to an end. The battle around Taiyuan City is still the same as it was at the beginning, it has not ended, and there has been no progress.
As the Eighth Route Army launched another fierce attack on Taiyuan City, Iwamatsu Yoshio, the commander of the First Army of the Devil, believed that the Eighth Route Army was going to break through Taiyuan City at the end of the autumn offensive and draw a perfect end to this unprecedented offensive.
So this old devil hurriedly asked the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in North China, Okabe Naosaburo, for help.
In this way, the Japanese reinforcements from all walks of life quickly transferred some of the elite to reinforce in the direction of Taiyuan City.
This move logically allowed the siege of Taiyuan City to once again cover the withdrawal of all troops of the Eighth Route Army.
In other words, from the beginning of this battle, the Eighth Route Army besieged Taiyuan, and until the end of the battle, the Eighth Route Army was still besieging Taiyuan.
But from the beginning to the end, there was no real siege war.
The poor devil defenders of Taiyuan City were bluffed and panicked, asking for help everywhere, and not only did not exert any strength in the whole battle, but delayed the Japanese fighters, like a clown jumping off the beam.
By the end of the autumn offensive.
The base areas of the Eighth Route Army all achieved rich results in this offensive, especially after successfully breaking through some towns and counties occupied by the Japanese army, and the captured materials and equipment were particularly abundant.
Several core base areas established by the troops of the Eighth Route Army behind enemy lines, including the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Base Area, the Jinsui Base Area, the Shanxi-Hebei-Luyu Base Area, the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Base Area, and the Shandong Base Area, all seized the opportunity to seize a large amount of materials during the autumn offensive, and seized the opportunity to steadily develop the base areas and strengthen the troops.
Especially those who have cooperated with the elite steel helmets of the Iron Triangle in the Eighth Route Army base area.
After the war, everyone was basically rich.
In Li Yunlong's bragging words: "Our Iron Triangle is like the God of Wealth this time, where the God of Wealth has been, are there still poor people?" One by one, his mother has become a rich man. ”
It may not be such an exaggeration, but after using the elite steel helmets of the Iron Triangle as the tip of the knife and quickly splitting the heavy defenses of the devils, the troops of the Eighth Route Army who assisted in the operation took the opportunity to expand their advantages and engage in large-scale seizures, which indeed enriched the logistics of the base area a lot.
Taihang base.
The former enemy's general command of the Eighth Route Army.
At this time, it was very lively, and groups of generals were arriving.
With the end of the autumn offensive and the gradual consolidation of the base areas in various places, according to the tradition of the Eighth Route Army, it was necessary to hold a summary post-war analysis meeting after the war.
In addition, it is also convenient for the General Headquarters to give guidance on the development of various base areas and to issue new instructions to all combat units.
But this post-war analysis meeting was particularly lively.
In addition, this meeting also has a special purpose, in the joking words of some generals: "In this autumn offensive, we have achieved an unprecedented victory, and all base areas have taken the opportunity to grow a lot, and it has dealt a great blow to the living forces of the Japanese army. ”
Generals from all walks of life came to the scene one after another, from different military regions and different base areas.
But without exception, all of them came with the great exploits of this autumn offensive, one by one, with their heads held high and with the signature smug smile of triumph.
After the old comrades-in-arms met, they inevitably exchanged a few words with each other.
"Old Song, I heard that your base area can fight well this time, and after statistics, how many devils have been eliminated? Are there two hundred? ”
"200? Hmph, who do you think of our old Song? Let me tell you, let's start with at least 500 devils, and there are at least seven or eight hundred little devils killed before and after this battle, and that's not counting the puppet army and the number of statistics. ”
"Really?"
"Is that fake?
And the ones killed were all the elite field troops of the devils, all of them were fully armed and wearing steel helmets on their heads! If you don't believe me, go to our base and take a look, the steel helmets are still piled up in the warehouse! ”
Then a taller general with a raised head arrived, and when he heard Lao Song's words, he couldn't help but laugh twice.
"Seven or eight hundred little devils, where is this? Let me tell you, at least 1,000 little devils have been killed in our base this time.
If you count the killings of our artillery, and it is too late to count, then the number is even more. ”
The people first compared the number of enemies killed, and then compared to the number of captured.
Some of them seized as many guns and guns as they wanted, while others said how much food and supplies were seized.
This time I rushed to the headquarters for a meeting, and a regiment commander from the Shandong base area saw that the old comrades-in-arms around him were talking nonsense, and then said coldly:
"Capture guns, cannons, food supplies, what is this?"
"Our regiment alone, this time we have taken more than a dozen warehouses of the devils in one go, including four arsenals, where there are guns and cannons, as many as you want.
Even the large-caliber heavy howitzers had two, and that's not all, after a successful breach of the city, we also successfully captured more than 50 Japanese military trucks, seven armored vehicles and five tanks.
A large amount of food and supplies were pulled by train for two full trips! ”
"If it's really more seized, you can't compare to our regiment!"
As soon as these words came out, the other regiment commanders questioned one after another while being surprised.
"I said Lao Zhang, are you overbragging?"
"That is, there are more than a dozen warehouses, armored vehicles, and tanks, and they are directly pulled by trains? Why don't you say that you gave up the headquarters of Naosaburo Okabe? ”
"If you Lao Zhang really had this ability, he would have been rich a long time ago, but how did I hear that your regiment doesn't even have a decent artillery unit until now?"
Under a series of questions, Head Zhang's face was a little unpleasant.
In the end, he only said one sentence, and everyone shut up, and believed that what he said was all the truth - "I fought with Lao Kong and Lao Li in these battles!" ”
Only then did the commanders suddenly realize.
"Ahem, Lao Zhang, you said it earlier, you said it earlier that you followed Lao Kong to eat meat and drink soup behind their buttocks, and we wouldn't suspect it!"
The topic quickly shifted to Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei.
Speaking of these people, most of these are the old Red Army soldiers who have experienced the Long March, and at the same time, they are all amazed and admired.
"Don't you know, the little devils around our base area, the most afraid is our team wearing steel helmets, once we fought devils' turrets, specially sorted out a batch of steel helmets seized from the devils from the warehouse, and put them on their heads.
And guess what, after the battle began? ”
"In less than 20 minutes, I just bombarded a few mortars, and the Japanese puppet army in the turret was so frightened that they gave up the turret and fled to the county seat, thinking that the steel helmets of the Eighth Route Army were coming!"
"Lao Kong, Lao Li, and Lao Ding, their development in the past few years is really good, their Iron Triangle elite, the steel helmets of the Eighth Route Army, have made a prestige, this devil heard that the steel helmets were like mice seeing cats, and they directly became cowards!"
"I really have to admire!"
"Especially Lao Kong, not to mention the development of the base, he is still kind and honest, and he does not forget to pull his old comrades-in-arms when he gets rich.
Tell me, why aren't we as good as Lao Li and Lao Ding, there is such an old comrade-in-arms who stayed in a class back then, slept on a kang, and could wear a pair of pants? ”
"That's it!"
The generals laughed and agreed.
When the brigade commander heard this, he couldn't help but scold: "Look at you one by one, you don't have the ability to blame yourself for not having an old comrade-in-arms like Kong Jie, why, you all have to rely on others to support you?" ”
Twist your head.
Seeing several brigade commanders in other base areas, several people couldn't help but sigh with emotion during the conversation.
"Why don't we have a few subordinates like Kong Jie and Li Yunlong? It's really more human than human, envy the dead! ”
Leaders: "......"
From time to time, Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei, who became the center of the topic, soon appeared on the stage.
The generals, regiment commanders, and brigade commanders, who were still laughing in the open field outside the headquarters compound, heard the sound of automobile engines.
Then I saw a very imposing black car slowly coming.
Most of the generals present had never sat in such a car, and they had not even seen it, and one of the regiment commanders said: "It seems that this kind of car must be equipped at least at the level of division commander or above of the Japanese army, right?"
I also went into the city in disguise to run errands, and I saw it once from afar in the devil's barracks, good guys, a group of little devils followed by a car, and there was a devil officer carrying two stars sitting in it.
At that time, I was itching to snatch the old devil's car. ”
Soon, the car went from far to near.
At this time, in addition to the sound of the engine, several loud voices came out.
One of them said happily: "I said Lao Kong, it's rare that your brother also knows how to show off, and he is willing to drive your baby car out?" ”
"Just your broken car, I asked you how many times you borrowed it, and you were stunned as if you were covering your baby bumps, and you didn't borrow it, why did you be generous this time?"
A voice replied: "Don't mention it, this time it's a serious matter, the old brigade commander asked me to drive the car over, this time we have a meeting at the headquarters, and many leaders have to rush over, and the distance is too far and inconvenient."
This car was temporarily lent to the headquarters, and after driving over, it was specially responsible for picking up and dropping off the leaders. ”
Then someone laughed and said: "Haha, Lao Kong, Lao Kong, you have fallen into the old brigade commander, be careful that your baby car has no return."
The old brigade commander has been thinking about it for a long time.
Last time, even the boss said that your car was comfortable! ”
"Is that really the case?"
"How can this be fake?"
"Yes, thousands of precautions have not been prevented, who would have thought that our old brigade commander would not play cards according to the routine, and not to say a word of Wishing you prosperity, but to change his thinking!"
Hahahaha –
The car stopped steadily, and the laughing Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei just opened the car door and got out of the car, looked up, startled, good guys, a group of people surrounded them.
Many of them were familiar faces, and they touched and looked at the car with envy and amazement.
One door is enough to play for half a day.
"I heard that this is a military car that can only be used at the level of a devil's commander, right? Good guy, it looks really magnificent, Lao Kong, don't say anything, hurry up and let our old comrades-in-arms experience it too! ”
"That's it, Lao Kong, you can't be stingy!"
"I'm number one!"
"I'm second!"
"Count me in!"
As the generals spoke, they really got into the car, one, two, three, four, five, six......
"His grandmother's, who's? Kick me in the head! Squeeze in a little bit, and you can still give old Lusse a place! ”
"Fuck, who poked me in the face?"
"Squeezed, squeezed, oops, stepped on my feet!"
That is, in the blink of an eye, Kong Jie looked at the dozen or so generals who quickly got in, or rather, stuffed themselves into the car.
I was stunned for a long time and couldn't come back to my senses.
I was very amazed in my heart: obediently, this is really a reasonable use of space architecture, even if Ah San comes, I am afraid that he will have to bow down!
