Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

At present, we are also preparing for the battle of Xuzhou, and the personnel, funds, supplies, guns and ammunition are also very tight.At that time, we will let the Jinsui Army cooperate with the Eighth Route Army to fight, and Yan Xishan will definitely cry poorly, hoping that we will allocate supplies to them.

As far as our current financial situation is concerned, if we don't give it, I'm afraid the Jinsui Army may not move.If we allocate supplies and military salaries to the Jinsui Army, if the Eighth Route Army wants it then, shall we give it or not? "

Such a remark made sense after Lao Jiang thought about it.Even Gu Zhutong's remarks were supported by many generals of the Central Army.In their opinion, it is better to keep all the limited funds and materials with the Central Army.

At least judging from the current situation, Lao Jiang can still command the three armies, and he can get such loyalty from his subordinates.In addition to being the chairman of the national government, there is also the funds in the hands of Lao Jiang, which no one else has.

Regarding the allocation of supplies and military salaries, many troops dispatched from Sichuan to the front line are suffering from severe shortages of supplies, guns and ammunition.The national government also seems to be somewhat powerless in this regard.

If Yan Xishan really wants money and supplies by then, will the national government give it or not?If you give it, if you don't give it to the Eighth Route Army at all, you will still have something to talk about.After all, the Eighth Route Army is also one of the units of the National Revolutionary Army!

When all the generals expressed their views, they still couldn't reach an effective opinion.Some of them even said that this matter is very beneficial to the Central Army.We should use the hands of the little devils to consume the strength of the Eighth Route Army and get rid of this party-state's confidant.

Although such words were spoken out, they were criticized by Chiang Kai-shek.But everyone knows that Lao Jiang is just putting on a show.Lao Jiang was actually very worried about the development of the Eighth Route Army in Shaanxi.

Even under such circumstances, Lao Jiang still gave new establishments to the 'Qinghai Majiajun' and 'Ningxia Majiajun'.Although this move seems to be a preparation for a full-scale war of resistance.But what it actually is, many people know.

As neighbors of the Eighth Route Army, the stronger the strength of 'Qingma' and 'Ningma', the more reassuring they are for the Central Army.At least Lao Jiang believes that the Ma family army, who is the emperor of Ningxia and Qinghai, does not have to worry about getting mixed up with the Eighth Route Army.

Looking at the generals, there are relatively many people who support the Jinsui Army to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army in fighting.Lao Jiang also knew that it was not time to turn against the Eighth Route Army.The top priority is to fight against the aggressive little devils.

Thinking of Lao Jiang here, he quickly said: "At the time of this great war, we still need to unite all teams that are sincere in fighting the war. The more chaos in North China, the better for our upcoming battle in Xuzhou.

Another point is that we now need the support of the international community.Even if our current funds are limited, we can still do it if we squeeze out a little supplies.We are also short of weapons and ammunition, so we cannot support them in the war of resistance for the time being.

From the funds aided by the Soviet Union, a part was allocated to the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army.To order them, it must be ensured that the Japanese army will no longer send additional troops into the Xuzhou battlefield.This battle is crucial to all of us. "

Hearing that some of the military aid from the Soviet Union was squeezed out to support the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army, the other generals couldn't say much.At least they all know that the Soviet Union's support for China's war of resistance is still not small.

If the Soviet Union is really annoyed, if they will support China's anti-war supplies and give all of them to the Eighth Route Army, I am afraid that the Central Army will be the one who will have a headache.In fact, the Eighth Route Army also had great opinions on this matter.

But in the Eighth Route Army, many people know that the Soviet Union seems to be somewhat dissatisfied with the current failure of the pro-Soviet faction in the Eighth Route Army to take power.They needed the Eighth Route Army to hold back the Japanese military activities in the Far East.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Soviet Union gave a lot of materials and funds.However, there are still funds for these materials, and very few of them can really be distributed to the Eighth Route Army.In view of this situation, the senior officials of the pro-Soviet faction of the Eighth Route Army were also very angry.

On the other hand, Taizu Mao knew very well that the Soviet Union was beating their local high-level officials!

After receiving the telegram from the National Government, Mao Taizu looked at Zhou Enlai and said, "20 French currency, it seems that Lao Jiang really bleeds a little this time!"

"Chairman, according to the information we got, Lao Jiang was able to pay the army so happily this time because he hoped that we would hold back the Japanese army in North China.If the Japanese army were to form a north-south pincer attack, it would be very difficult for them to fight in the Xuzhou battle.

Secondly, some time ago, the Soviet consul in China also protested with Lao Jiang.Accusing them of aiding China's supplies and funds were all used by the Central Army.Failed to delegate some of them to us as agreed.

The 20 French currency is only a small part compared to the anti-war funds provided by the Soviet Union to aid the Central Army.In the final analysis, Lao Jiang is borrowing flowers to present Buddha, taking advantage of righteousness and word of mouth, and leaving us with nothing to blame. '

Listening to Zhou Enlai's words, Mao Taizu said with a dignified expression, "Yes! The 20 military salary is nothing more than life-saving money in the final analysis. In this battle, we still have to try our best to control the losses of the troops."

Faced with Mao Taizu's solemn expression, Zhou Enlai also nodded and said: "I believe the commander-in-chief should be careful about this. But this time we moved, and the bombing of the little devil seemed to be temporarily suspended.

Even if the fighting on the front line is a little more intense, as long as we ensure the stability of our rear, from a long-term perspective, it will do us more good than harm.This time the sabotage battle should be regarded as a big test for our troops! "

Although after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Eighth Route Army has been fully developed except for the ten main divisions, the expansion of the garrison troops in the other base areas is also very gratifying.But at the end of the day, a lot of the troops are newly augmented troops.

If you don't practice it in actual combat, I'm afraid it's still useless.Most importantly, the Eighth Route Army also needs a larger base area to expand more troops.Only in this way can the Eighth Route Army enter a stage of healthy development.

With base areas, there will be people and troops.Although fighting with the little devils will consume the vital strength of the Eighth Route Army.While expendable, the Eighth Route Army is also expanding its strength.The key now depends on who is more dominant in consumption or expansion!

If the speed of expansion cannot keep up with consumption, it is necessary for the Eighth Route Army to change its combat mode.If the rate of expansion is faster than consumption, then such a combat mode can continue.This is also the fundamental reason why the central government agreed to fight this battle! (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The turmoil during the New Year in Shanxi made the whole of North China seem to be in turmoil. Fortunately, many cities in the south are still celebrating the New Year with the sound of gunfire. This unification between the north and the south seems very appropriate.

As the commander of the independent column, even if you know that it is New Year's Eve, you should enjoy the New Year.But He Zhengdao, who set up a temporary pre-war headquarters in Youyu, paid more attention to the telegrams from various troops.

Compared with the raids launched by other main division troops at this moment, and even blocked all the Japanese and puppet troops in the counties of Shanxi, they dared not go out at will, and could only wait bitterly for the reinforcements from Taiyuan, but Datong and Shuozhou seemed very calm.

But the more calm it was, the more worried Itagaki Seishiro felt.As the commander of the Shanxi Dispatch Army, Itagaki Seishiro knew very well that the most vigilant person in the Eighth Route Army was the young commander of the independent column, He Zhengdao.

Even in Shuozhou and Datong, only a small group of guerrillas harassed the towns and attacked those small groups of Japanese and puppet troops.But Banhuan still felt that the independent column in this calm state was probably plotting a bigger plan.

Thinking of Guisui and Baotou, which were under the lead of the independent column at the moment, Banhuan still asked people to report to the garrison there, reminding them to prepare for defense.If there is no preparation, there is no guarantee that the Eighth Route Army will suddenly launch a surprise attack.

It was just that the telegram was sent to the commander of the Guisui garrison, but the Japanese major general said disapprovingly: "The snow near Guisui has not yet melted, so fighting in such weather is not courting death?

If the Eighth Route Army is willing to come, let them come!To be honest, in this weather, I really hope that the Eighth Route Army can send the main force to attack.With solid city defenses, what weapon will the Eighth Route Army use to break through our city defenses? "

As the Guisui garrison officer said, the entire Suiyuan border is now in the season of heavy snow and freezing.Even on the line between Shuozhou and Datong, there is still a lot of snow left.Fighting in this kind of weather is undoubtedly very unfavorable.

On the other hand, how could He Zhengdao not know this unfavorable situation?But he knew better that under such circumstances, even if the Japanese army wanted to reinforce the Japanese troops in Guisui and Baotou, it would be impossible.

On the night of the New Year, Li Xiangdong, the reconnaissance brigade commander who was ordered to come from Yulin to meet Youyu and He Zhengdao, even though the journey was a bit difficult, quickly came to the headquarters of He Zhengdao's office and said, "Report!"

'Come in! '

'Commander!The reconnaissance brigade was ordered to arrive! '

Looking at the dusty Li Xiangdong and He Zhengdao in a sheepskin coat, he also smiled and said: "Xiangdong, here we come! Thank you for your hard work! Let you hurry on the New Year's Eve, do the soldiers have any objections?"

'That can!Ever since Yulin was bombed, the comrades saw those bombed houses, and they all held their breath and wanted to seek revenge from the little devil!On the way we came, we saw that many places are still busy repairing houses! '

Having witnessed the tragic situation after the bombing of Yulin City, as the reconnaissance brigade commander of the independent column, Li Xiangdong was naturally very angry.In his opinion, the little devil's reckless bombing was indeed a little too vicious.

It's just that compared with other base areas, the military and civilian casualties are heavy, and the current Yulin City still has more houses that are severely damaged.Fortunately, the independent column teamed up with the border region government to provide shelter for these people who lost their homes.

Listening to Li Xiangdong's words, He Zhengdao also nodded and said: "Yes! The little devils have sinister intentions. They did this to make our life uncomfortable this year. Then we will make them uncomfortable this year.

By the way, about the snow marching training of your reconnaissance brigade, you can master it now, right?The little devil thinks that if the cat does not go out in the city, everything will be fine.This time, I will let them know that we can still fight in snowy weather. "

As the most elite brigade-level force under the command of the independent column, He Zhengdao has always attached great importance to the training of the reconnaissance brigade.Even since last year, He Zhengdao has consciously added snow marching training to the reconnaissance brigade.

He Zhengdao ordered the logistics troops to equip him a lot, from the ski equipment that is convenient for individual marching to the snow plow that can be used to transport supplies.Usually there are no combat missions, and the reconnaissance brigade conducts training in Shenmu territory.

Even, the four main divisions of the independent column now have related ski training in winter.For many officers and soldiers, such training is not only entertaining, but also helps to improve their adaptability to the field of winter combat.

In fact, He Zhengdao thought more about this kind of winter training from the biathlon event.Even though the skis seem very simple at present, the officers and soldiers have already mastered this kind of tool very proficiently.

Hearing He Zhengdao's inquiry, Li Xiangdong also said confidently: "Please rest assured, Commander, after two winters of training, the soldiers have already adapted to marching in the snow. Moreover, the cotton-padded clothes and trousers equipped by the logistics department are very good. thermal.

This time we came from Shenmu, and we skied some places on the road.In order to ensure the delivery of our materials, the logistics department also prepared a lot of cold-resistant pack horses and plows to deliver materials for us. "

'good!As the unit with the longest snow combat training in the column, the task of your independent column this time is also very heavy.Compared with the previous collective operations, this time your reconnaissance brigade will be divided into several action teams to enter Suiyuan to fight.

At present, the Fourth Division and the First Regiment have arrived in the Huai'an area of ​​Zhangjiakou, and they will blow up the Pingsui Railway.This means that the railway from Datong to Zhangjiakou will also be completely destroyed.As for Guisui and Baotou, the same is naturally true.

My combat goal is to completely recover Suiyuan while the road is blocked by heavy snow.Arrived at the front of our battle to the east of Mongolia and the Chahar area, and waited for an opportunity to advance to the northeast to fight.

In order to achieve this combat goal, your reconnaissance brigade will be the main attack this time, with the cooperation of the third division, the Daqingshan garrison brigade, and the first cavalry division.In a word, you don't have to worry about the safety of the rear, you just need to take down the entire territory of Suiyuan as soon as possible.
