Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

In response to such a situation, the Fifth Theater has also dispatched many troops to carry out the task of suppressing bandits.But compared to these bandits who are familiar with the terrain, many Central Army troops stationed there are often intentional and powerless about such things.

After all, many bandits committed crimes in the Dabie Mountains near Henan, so they fled to Hubei to escape.The unique geographical location also made it much more difficult to wipe out the bandits here.

With the arrival of the advance team of the Eighth Route Army, He Zhengdao, who learned of this situation, immediately combined the task of suppressing bandits with the task of establishing a base area.Gain the recognition and trust of the local people by suppressing bandits.

As long as he can gain the approval and support of the local people and not touch the counties controlled by the Central Army, He Zhengdao believes that no one will trouble the guerrillas in a short time.

This time, in order to solve the ideological burden of some soldiers in the advance team, He Zhengdao made the decision to inspect the guerrillas.Putting on civilian clothes, He Zhengdao led the saber special forces team and a guard battalion to start the inspection.

As for the materials seized last time, they are now being continuously transferred from various guerrillas to the bases of various guerrilla brigades in the Dabie Mountains.All the guerrilla brigades seemed very happy about the materials allocated.

Along with these materials, there are also combat troops diverted from the main force.The arrival of these troops also strengthened the strength of the guerrillas to suppress bandits.But these troops will return to the main force in the future.

When the army's recruit training work is over, He Zhengdao will expand the army's recruit army, select some officers and soldiers with strong political ideology, and gradually add them to the guerrilla team, and rotate with these veterans.

In this way, after each rotation, the overall strength of the troops in the Dabie Mountains area is actually improving at an accelerated rate.When these guerrilla brigades are qualified to be awarded to regiment-level troops, then the formation of the Central China Military Region will not be a problem.

As far as the current situation is concerned, He Zhengdao has formed a guerrilla brigade in every county in the Dabie Mountains.The captain and the backbone of the guerrillas are all carefully selected military backbones and outstanding political cadres from the army.

Before the establishment of these guerrilla brigades, most of them were only about the size of a reinforced platoon.But even so, when they arrived at the area where they were responsible for forming the guerrilla brigade, they also quickly found a place to establish a rear base.

There were reconnaissance troops who went to the outposts in advance, and the inspection by He Zhengdao and his party also did not alarm these guerrilla brigades, let alone the local local government.Everything was in accordance with He Zhengdao's request, and the inspection was carried out in a low-key manner.

When he arrived in Huang'an City, he Zhengdao also felt a feeling of traveling across time and space when he saw this small county town that was later renamed Hong'an.This Jiangjun County, which is famous all over the country, has produced many founding generals after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Although the current control here is still the troops of the Central Army.But He Zhengdao, who arrived here, thought for a while and said: "Xu Hao, you come to the city with me. It's rare to come here. I want to take a good look at Huang'an City."

Listening to He Zhengdao's words, Xu Hao, the leader of the Saber Division, who took over Zhu Fei who was still recovering from injuries, and took on any Zhengdao security guard duty, also asked curiously: "Young shopkeeper, what is there to do in this county?"

'You kid don't understand!In the future, you will understand that this county is different.You must know that this is the hometown of Mr. Dong, and there are also countless comrades who went out to join our revolutionary team from here.

Here in the future, it will also become the core county for the development of our base area.If there is a chance, I will take down the control of this county.When we arrive at the guerrilla brigade tomorrow, we will call the head of the underground party here as well. '

After explaining these things to Xu Hao, there will be a corresponding liaison officer to arrange the matter.As for He Zhengdao, he brought Xu Hao and others into Huang'an City in the name of a young shopkeeper.

Although there were still soldiers standing guard at the gate of the city, they did not stop He Zhengdao and the others from coming.Of course, the reason why he didn't stop him was that He Zhengdao had several bodyguards with guns around him.

These days, it is also very dangerous for commercial firms to do business everywhere.It is also very common to hire some bodyguards for protection.But ordinary city defense soldiers dare not stop such a business at will.

The soldiers on guard checked the fake passage documents issued by He Zhengdao and others, and then let the group of people into the city with a smile.In order to avoid trouble, He Zhengdao asked Xu Hao, who was acting as a bodyguard, to give him a few banknotes.

Although these fiat currencies became less and less valuable as the Anti-Japanese War began.But for these soldiers on guard, these legal coins can still buy a lot of things.Naturally, they would not refuse this kind of reward.

With these legal coins to buy the road, the carriage that He Zhengdao and his party were riding in was also not checked.Regarding such a situation, He Zhengdao really didn't know what to say.It can only be said that these city defense soldiers are mostly used to watch.

Apart from frightening the common people, with the military quality of these city guards, it is estimated that even the more ferocious bandits cannot be dealt with.It is a bit too high to expect them to guard the county seat.

But it was such city defense soldiers that allowed He Zhengdao and others to enter the county easily.On the contrary, it will also be much easier for guerrillas to enter and exit the county in the future.If you want to move around in the county, you will naturally become more free.

After finding a relatively nice hotel, He Zhengdao asked Xu Hao to book a few rooms.In order not to be so eye-catching, He Zhengdao actually only brought a special warfare team with him, a guard of only 15 people.

As for the other security forces, some had already entered the county seat, and some had entered the county seat one after another after He Zhengdao entered the city.Even if He Zhengdao didn't want to be so troublesome, he also knew that his identity was destined not to leave too easily and freely.

Looking at the pedestrians passing through the county, He Zhengdao also felt that this small county seemed more lively than he had imagined.Many of the counties I have seen before seem to have become much more depressed.

Even though the little devils hadn't come here yet, many people were really worried when the little devils entered the Dabie Mountains.But even if the little devil's attack was repelled, the little devil is actually not too far away from Huang Ancheng.

It's just that according to intelligence, there is currently a battalion of the 42nd Army stationed in Huang'an City.Although this kind of stationing is short-term, the presence of this force seems to have given the local people a sense of security.

After arranging the place for board and lodging, He Zhengdao called Xu Hao and another special forces member, and the group of three began to wander around Huang'an City.As for other special forces members, they can only carry out security guards in front and back.

Although there is nothing new to say about this kind of county town that can be seen almost everywhere in the Republic of China, He Zhengdao also looked at it carefully, as if he wanted to feel the difference of this small county town.

It was in this small county that the Red Fourth Front Army, which had just been formed back then, took the capture of Huang'an as its first battle, and successfully captured it, becoming the first big victory after the formation of the Fourth Red Front Army.

Perhaps it was this kind of victory that made this small county a batch of heroes rushing to the revolutionary battlefield.It's just that following the strategic shift of the Red Fourth Front Army, the national government that eventually took over the control of the county seat also caused a lot of bloody killings here.

This time when He Zhengdao came over, the guerrilla brigade still called Hong'an in the Eighth Route Army was also a guerrilla brigade that he needed to focus on.In this brigade, there were seven key family members who were all executed and persecuted by the Central Army afterward.

And the person currently serving as the county magistrate of Huang'an City was the person in charge of the liquidation mission back then.It can be said that this guy's ability to become the head of a county is inseparable from the blood of the martyrs of the revolutionary army that he was stained with back then.

Such a county magistrate, if he really wants to execute him, it's really not an easy thing to do.But He Zhengdao felt that if he could find some clues about the county magistrate, he might be able to use a borrowed knife to kill him.

Maybe the method was not so open and aboveboard, but at least it gave some explanation to those Eighth Route Army soldiers.After all, according to the statistics of the guerrilla brigade, the families of soldiers who were harmed by this guy are far less than these seven people.

This means that this is a person who owes many blood debts to the Eighth Route Army.If he is not executed, it is indeed difficult to appease the anger of those soldiers and even officers who joined the Eighth Route Army from this small town.

It's just this idea, He Zhengdao didn't say anything to anyone.But this is also the real intention of his going to the city! (To be continued.)

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

Huang'an, located at the southern foot of the Dabie Mountains in northeastern Hubei, is also known as a battleground for military strategists because of its unique geographical location.It is adjacent to Huanggang Macheng in the east, Xiaogan Dawu in the west, Huangpi in Wuhan in the south, and Xinyang in Henan Province in the north.

Even the distance from the provincial capital of Wuhan is less than a hundred kilometers away.Perhaps it is this geographical location that makes this a revolutionary base in Hubei.There are also countless soldiers and martyrs who have stepped out of here and embarked on the revolutionary road.

The jute uprising initiated by the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army in the early years was also the first largest peasant armed uprising in the area north of the Yangtze River after the Nanchang Uprising and the Autumn Harvest Uprising. Its significance is self-evident.

This uprising opened the prelude to the armed struggle, agrarian revolution, and Soviet regime construction in the Hubei, Henan, and Anhui regions. It played a leading role in the establishment of the Hubei, Henan, and Anhui Revolutionary Bases and the Fourth Red Army, and it also left a glorious footprint in the history of the Chinese revolution. .

Perhaps it was this situation that caused the national government's policy of suppressing revolutions to be extremely cruel.But the more this is the case, the more it inspires batches of passionate young people to leave their homes and walk on the road of revolution.

Those responsible for suppressing the revolution could not find these revolutionary youths, so they tried to trouble their families.But many young people who joined the revolutionary ranks were outside most of the time, and sometimes they didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

But even so, those who hoped to show their loyalty to the national government by suppressing the revolution still refused to let their family members go.Many family members participated in the revolution, and were even forced to death by these people.

Nowadays, Zhao Dahu, who is the magistrate of Huang'an City, is the object of fear of many people in Huang'an.After the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army moved to the battle, this person joined the Rangers formed by the Nationalist Government and became Huang An's most famous pioneer.

There are also countless revolutionary youths who died at his hands, as well as the families of those revolutionaries.This kind of ruthless massacre and clean-up policy made many people in Huang'an tremble with fear when they heard its name.

Although He Zhengdao did not receive much information, from later generations, he had read more or less information about the ranger's Qingxiang in the Soviet area.Among them, the most serious scourge by the Rangers, except for the southern Jiangxi Soviet area, is the Dabie Mountain area.

In the evening, He Zhengdao took only two special forces members and sat down in a tea house facing the street.The reason for choosing this teahouse is also because not far from the teahouse is the seat of Huang'an's county seat.

As for the county magistrate, Zhao Dahu, he probably knew that he had committed a serious crime and hired a large number of servants to guard him.Even where he lived was in a big mansion not far from the city defense camp.Usually go out, there are guards close protection.

As for Zhao Dahu, who was awarded by the national government and promoted to the head of a county.He also knew that once the Red Army returned to the Dabie Mountains, his good days might come to an end.

Zhao Dahu knew very well that for the evil he did back then, shooting him ten times would be enough.Most of the time, even he himself feels that he deserves to die.But he finally became the magistrate of a county, and Zhao Dahu, who was born as a local ruffian, was naturally unwilling to die like that.

When He Zhengdao ordered people to secretly collect information about Zhao Dahu, Zhao Dahu also received reports from some gentry and landlords below.Many young people who joined the Red Army back then have returned to Huang'an.

Hearing the news, Zhao Dahu was naturally a little worried.Although he really wanted to lead the city defense battalion to arrest these revolutionary youths who had returned home.But he knows that this is a period of bipartisan cooperation in the war of resistance, and he cannot do this.

On the contrary, Zhao Dahu, who was a little worried, still asked the person in charge of the Hubei Military Command about how to deal with these people.The person in charge of the military command also gave Zhao Dahu instructions based on monitoring.

At the same time, it was also informed that these young people who returned home were all officers and soldiers of the New 67th Army of the Eighth Route Army.Most of them returned home this time to visit relatives.If something happened to these guys on his turf, there would still be trouble.

As for Zhao Dahu's concern, whether these people will seek revenge from him.The person in charge of the military command also informed Zhao Dahu, so he can rest assured.As long as he doesn't go out at will and stays in the county, the Eighth Route Army will not dare to touch him.
