Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

Although the war in Shanxi caused many people in Shanxi to flee to Shaanxi.But at the same time as the number of people increased, most of these people with small fortunes also moved their assets to the base area.

The arrival of these people actually promoted the development of the base area's economy and people's livelihood.The population in Northwest China is not too concentrated. If they want to resettle these people, the Eighth Route Army still has a way.

In order to ensure the stability of the base area, the Eighth Route Army also issued specific resettlement measures for these people who fled to Shaanxi.At least to a certain extent, their ration supply will be guaranteed.

As for the house, you only need to organize a group of people, dig a group of cave dwellings and repair them, and then you can move in.However, in order to survive in the base area, these people also need to make their own efforts.

In a word, lazy people can't get any help from the Eighth Route Army.To survive in troubled times, people must also become diligent.The current construction of roads in the border areas has undoubtedly created a lot of job opportunities.

With the population, the Eighth Route Army also has the foundation for development, and various tasks can be smoothly advanced.And under the condition of stabilizing the existing base area, orderly outward expansion is also a development strategy formulated by the central government!

He Zhengdao, who personally sat in Yuanping and directed the battle in Xinzhou, received a telegram from Song Yuping the next morning.The reconnaissance team staying behind in Xinzhou has successfully merged with the main force of the 129th Division, and is also transferring the seized materials.

After a night of pursuit, the Japanese Ninth Mixed Brigade, under the assault of armored vehicles, also failed to escape the pursuit and was killed by the pursued Eighth Route Army soldiers.At this point, the strength of the Japanese army in Xinzhou was undoubtedly in shambles.

Under such circumstances, the first batch of loaded materials had already departed for Yulin overnight.The vehicles transported were all large equipment and valuables. As for small items, He Zhengdao also arranged for a team of mules and horses to transport them.

Even after occupying Yuanping City, He Zhengdao ordered the first division to start supporting the 129th Division's battle to wipe out the Japanese and puppet garrisons in the surrounding cities bordering Xinzhou.While eliminating those little devils, at the same time punish a group of traitors and traitors.

And Seishiro Itagaki, who also returned to Taiyuan City, received a telegram from the North China Front Army before he could come and catch his breath.Let him send troops to Xinzhou to stabilize the situation.For this order, Itagaki knew it was too late.

According to the current situation, the railway from Yangquan to Taiyuan has been almost destroyed.Even the Jingxing Railway, which had been blasted once before, was also destroyed and demolished by the Eighth Route Army.

Compared with the last time it only blew up the railway tracks, this time the Eighth Route Army destroyed it more thoroughly.Even several important road sections where the Japanese army sent troops to garrison were destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, and the bridges and caves that had finally stopped construction were blown up and collapsed.

According to the report of the engineers in charge of railway maintenance, repairing this section of railway requires a large number of rails.At least within half a year, the railway from Shijiazhuang to Taiyuan cannot be expected to be completed.

As for the railway from Taiyuan to Yuanping, it was completely destroyed. 【△网WwW.】The railway that Yan Xishan spent a lot of effort to build in the past was all in vain in just one or two days.Such destruction made Itagaki Seishiro aware of the danger.

Even if the Japanese army's marching speed on foot is not slow, the destruction of the railway means that they often have to march into the advance of the large corps.The entry of a small group of troops will not be able to quell the current chaos in Xinzhou at all.

So he quickly said: "Send a report to the front army. At present, our division's troops are in urgent need of rest, and we also need to replenish supplies before we can leave. In order to ensure the safety of Taiyuan, the matter of attacking Xinzhou must wait until the 116th division arrives.

According to the information so far, the Eighth Route Army of China has assembled four main divisions in Xinzhou, with more than 6 regular troops.In the case of losing the railway, unless it enters Xinzhou with a divisional system, it is extremely easy to be besieged by the Chinese army.

Secondly, there is a shortage of materials in our department. In addition to the cold weather, we urgently need materials to keep out the cold. We also hope that the front army will organize road transfers to Taiyuan as soon as possible.In order to ensure the stability of Shanxi Mountain, it is suggested that the military should consider shrinking troops to defend key targets.

As for the battle in Xinzhou, if the Eighth Route Army of China chooses to occupy it, it will do more good than harm to our dispatched troops in Shanxi.If you want to regain Xinzhou, you must concentrate your main force to launch an offensive.Otherwise, the fifth division alone will not be able to fulfill the task of quelling chaos. "

Such a telegram, in the old days, Itagaki Seishiro would not dare to send it.But now Shanxi is in chaos again, and the Japanese-occupied areas have been captured by the Eighth Route Army one after another, and the funds that are urgently needed in the country have been lost. Si Nei Shou is having a hard time.

In addition, in this response, Terauchi Shouichi will also bear the responsibility for the unfavorable command.As the head of the Lieutenant General Division, Seishiro Itagaki was in the Army Headquarters, and there were also many insiders who provided information to him.

Even though Shouyi's family in the temple is very prestigious in the country, there are also many hostile forces corresponding to it.The current situation in Shanxi is rotten. As the commander of the front army, it is inevitable that Terauchi Shouyi will return to China for questioning.

Moreover, Seishiro Itagaki believed that his opinion was also appropriate when he was appointed by the Front Army as the headquarters of the Shanxi Expeditionary Army.As far as the current situation in Shanxi is concerned, the fall of Xinzhou is inevitable, and sending troops to rescue indiscriminately will only lose the already scarce troops.

In contrast, when the situation around Taiyuan stabilizes, the main force of the 116th Division and the troops drawn from the surrounding cities will be combined to adopt a strategy of advancing layer by layer. I believe it will be easy to recapture Xinzhou.

During the confrontation with the Eighth Route Army in Luliang, Itagaki Seishiro had already experienced the difficulty of this army.If you rush to rescue Xinzhou right now, the end result will be more harm than good, and even ruin the support troops who entered Xinzhou.

As Seishiro Itagaki's telegram reached the headquarters of the Front Army, Toshiichi Terauchi's face darkened.He knew very well that if he wanted to convict the division heads under his command, he needed the approval of the Army Headquarters.

Compared with Terauchi Shouichi's displeasure, Chief of Staff Naozaburo Okabe said: "Your Excellency, Commander Itagaki Division Commander's suggestion, I think it is still advisable. Judging from the current situation, we may not be able to regain Xinzhou in a short time.

Coupled with the urgent withdrawal of the Fifth Division from the front line, the loss of troops and supplies was very serious.Most of the materials collected in Taiyuan before were blown up and burned in the previous destruction, and they really need to be adjusted.

The farewell telegram sent back by the Ninth Mixed Brigade can already explain some problems.If only infantry brigades are sent into Xinzhou, it may be difficult to be sure of victory.Waiting for our armies from all walks of life to converge and fight again, I believe there will be a better chance of winning! "

'Then the supplies and the money we had on the train just watched them fall into the hands of the Chinese army?In order to cope with the strategic plan we are currently implementing in China, the Army Headquarters has invested a large sum of money.

The property we have seized from Shanxi at the moment could have allowed the Army Headquarters to suspend the financial pressure and raise more supplies and weapons and equipment.If I don't have this money, how do you want me to explain to His Majesty the Emperor and the others? '

Okabe Naozaburo didn't know how to answer what Terauchi Shouichi said.Just as Terauchi Shouichi said, with the full launch of the Huaxia War of Resistance, Riba has also begun a new round of large-scale development of armaments.

Compared with the current Japanese army that pays more attention to the navy and air force, the money allocated by the cabinet to the Army Headquarters is undoubtedly not too much.Under such circumstances, the capture of troops dispatched in China has become an important source of income for the Army to develop.

A resource-poor country like Yiribo wants to invade Ruo Da, a Chinese country, and complete the unnatural act of snake swallowing elephants.Without sufficient national strength and financial support, it is also empty talk.The longer the war lasts, the worse it will be for Ribo.

Before the July [-]th Incident, the Minister of War of the Japanese Army once said that "the war in China will end in March".As a result, the Central Army fought them for three months in just one Songhu battle.The consequence of speaking big words is naturally ridiculed by the Secretary of the Navy.

Even in the eyes of the Minister of the Navy, more credit should go to their navy for the smooth success of the Japanese army in the later period of the Songhu Battle.Without a powerful navy to project troops for the army, it would be impossible for the army to win the Songhu Battle.

Most of the machinery and equipment loaded on the two trains this time can be used as weapons production costs and handed over to the major arsenals in Riba.As for the funds and the antiques, the former can be directly used to purchase urgently needed imported materials.

As for the latter, whether it is stored, given as a gift, or sold in other countries, it can bring a lot of income to the Army Headquarters.But right now, all of this has come to naught, how can the Army Headquarters not be angry.

Terauchi Toshiichi is the son of the former prime minister, and it is true that his family has a very high status in Riba.But if he made such a mistake, not to mention the dissatisfaction of other members of the cabinet, the anger of the ministers of the Army Headquarters alone would cause him to bear considerable consequences.

Even according to the information obtained so far, the Army Headquarters is already studying and dispatching another commander to the North China Front Army.Such a situation was known to Terauchi Shouichi, and I believe Itagaki Seishiro knew it too.

Even if it is very unwilling, but now the Fifth Division urgently needs to rest, and the 116th Division also needs to rest and replenish supplies.Even if the North China Front Army is very unwilling, they can only let the situation in Xinzhou rot.

Under such circumstances, the Eighth Route Army ransacked the counties in Xinzhou occupied by the Japanese army one by one.With the arrival of the first winter snow, the main force also began to enter the rest stage.

At this time, the North China reinforcements, which took a long time, finally arrived in Taiyuan.After a few days of rest, led by the 116th Division, the Japanese army once again launched a campaign to recover Xinzhou.

Faced with the victory telegram sent by the front troops, Itagaki Seishiro was not happy at all.The reason is very simple. The Eighth Route Army's resistance to their attacking troops can be minimal.

In many counties, when the Japanese army arrived, there were no Eighth Route Army troops in sight.The Japanese army marching into Xinzhou almost regained the lost ground in great strides.The few aggressive troops were surrounded and annihilated by the ubiquitous Eighth Route Army.

In this case, not to mention Seishiro Itagaki sensed that something was wrong, even the Japanese troops who marched into Xinzhou also felt that something was wrong.Except for the counties in Xinzhou, they have almost lost control over the towns and villages.

If too many troops are dispatched, it will be as if the Eighth Route Army did not know they were coming.If there are fewer troops sent to receive, then these received troops will definitely withstand the siege of the main force of the Eighth Route Army one night.

Faced with such a situation, even if Itagaki was a little unwilling, he could only send an order to recover Xinzhou's troops.First stabilize the situation in the cities of Xinzhou, and try to clean up the current mess of the Shanxi dispatched army.

Until the Japanese vanguard arrived in the Wuzhai area, the Japanese army who was going to recover was hit head-on by the Eighth Route Army.Even after a great battle, the Japanese army still failed to make a breakthrough.This situation made Banyuan realize that Wuzhai had become the base of the Eighth Route Army.

In short, with the Luliang Mountains as the boundary, the Eighth Route Army drew a clear dividing line for the Japanese army.If the Japanese army continues to invade, the area they currently occupy will usher in a new chaos.

In view of such a situation, even if Seishiro Itagaki was not reconciled, he could only order the troops to garrison outside the Wuzhai area in the end.Begin to deploy troops to strengthen control over other occupied areas.

As for the current base areas guarded by heavily armed forces of the Eighth Route Army, if they are unable to prepare for a new war, they can only suspend their weapons for the time being! (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please browse w reading for a better reading experience.

Compared with the staged victory of the Eighth Route Army in the Shanxi battlefield, except for the people in the Northwest and North China who were more concerned, most of the international attention was focused on the defense of Nanjing in the south, a battle that seemed to be doomed.

In He Zhengdao, he saw that the newly appointed Shanxi garrison commander Itagaki Seishiro did not lead the Fifth Division to invade Xinzhou in the end.It is also roughly judged that Itagaki should know that it is difficult to reverse the situation based on the current military strength in Shanxi.

It is a wise choice to defend Taiyuan, the provincial capital.Under such circumstances, after He Zhengdao handed over the war in Xinzhou to Zhang Cheng, he led the Saber Special Forces back to Yulin with the last batch of supplies.
