Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

First confirm the communication between the two parties, so that when there are any combat missions in the future, it is good for each other to take care of each other.As long as the triangular defense is done well, your activities in Anhui will become relatively easier in the future. '

After talking about these things, Li Xiangdong also said happily: "The New Fourth Army has also come in, which is really a good thing! During this period, I sent many reconnaissance teams to conduct some intelligence reconnaissance around Hefei.

The little devil currently has not many troops in Anhui, and most of the troops stationed in the counties are puppet troops they have incorporated.Some county towns even have only one little devil squadron stationed there. If we really want to fight, I still have the confidence to fight them down. "

Seeing Li Xiangdong's eager expression, He Zhengdao shook his head and said: "County towns are still very important to little devils. Under the current circumstances, it is still not suitable for us to recover the county towns occupied by little devils.

Although I believe in the combat effectiveness of your reconnaissance brigade, you should be aware that the recapture of the county seat will have a great impact.After recovery, how to keep the fruits of our victory is also a very thankless task.

Of course, it is not that we really give up on these counties occupied by little devils.It's just that the current situation is not suitable for us to start a recovery war against those counties.When the time is right, it's not too late to fight again! "

After talking about these things, He Zhengdao said again: "Xiangdong, do you think it's more suitable for you to take charge of one side's war outside, or stay in the main force and command the large corps to fight?"

For such an inquiry, Li Xiangdong was also very surprised: "Commander, do you have a new mission?"

'No, I'm just asking you.After returning to Yan'an for the meeting this time, I estimate that I will resign as commander of the New 67th Army.You should know that when I was stationed in Yulin from the independent column, I was rushing to recover the Northeast.

Now our task of going south to cooperate with the Central Army has basically come to an end.In the eyes of the Central Army, our new 67th Army has also become a remnant.Maybe it won't be long before our unit will be disbanded.

In the previous round, the central government had dispatched Comrade Liu Shaoqi to lead the anti-Japanese work behind enemy lines in the Central China Bureau.Our new 67th Army will also become the main force of the Central China Military Region.At that time, corresponding reorganization should be given.

Although neither the central government nor the headquarters has made a decision yet, I still want to hear your personal opinion.Zhang Cheng and the other three teachers, I will definitely not transfer them to my side, but I still want to transfer you back to my side.

At least personally, I still hope to bring your reconnaissance brigade back to Yulin.In the future to regain the Northeast, your reconnaissance brigade will also take on the important task.Some of the elite will be kept here, and the rest will be transferred back to Yulin.

At that time, I will re-form a division-level force with the reconnaissance brigade as the backbone in Yulin.Cooperating with the two divisions we stayed in Yulin before, I believe we can also deal with some big battles.What is your own idea? '

'Being able to follow the elders, I naturally like it!It doesn't really matter where you go, as long as you can fight with the boss! '

The very direct answer made He Zhengdao feel very relieved.Such an answer can at least show that he is still very respected and loved in the hearts of these old subordinates! (To be continued.)

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

Even though he hadn't seen Li Xiangdong for a while, He Zhengdao, who ended his brief meeting with him in Xiaocun, only had dinner with him in Xiaocun.At nightfall, He Zhengdao and his party left the village quietly again.

On the contrary, Li Xiangdong, who came to meet, stayed in the village for one night.Although some villagers woke up the next day and found that the Eighth Route Army in the village had changed a group of people, they didn't say much.After all, this is a military event!

Except for a very small number of people in the reconnaissance brigade who knew that He Zhengdao had been to Guoyang, the others did not know that this elusive commander had already made a round of their base.In terms of confidentiality, He Zhengdao is still very meticulous.

After leaving Guoyang, He Zhengdao took the special warfare unit and the guard battalion into Shangqiu, where the current situation was relatively tense.At this time, the Japanese army still assembled a lot of troops in Shangqiu.

Compared with the current situation in Shangqiu, the Eighth Route Army staying in Guoyang and other places seemed much more relaxed.The only headache is that the flood caused by the bursting of the Yellow River in the previous period made the population seem to be dying here.

On the other hand, the Central Army stationed in Henan felt that if the Japanese army wanted to attack Zhengzhou from Shangqiu, they would have to pass through the Yellow Flooded Area.But such a strategic frontier, the Japanese army naturally did not want to give up.

The Japanese army's plan to attack Zhengzhou failed because of the flood of the Yellow River.Originally, the Japanese army withdrew a lot of troops from Shangqiu to the rear, but this time the Japanese army restarted their plan to attack Zhengzhou, and the Japanese army began to secretly gather in Shangqiu again.

According to the reconnaissance team of the guard battalion, they entered Shangqiu territory in advance to inquire about intelligence.He Zhengdao could also know that the Japanese army's move to Shangqiu seemed to be very cautious, as if they were afraid that the Central Army would find out.

But in He Zhengdao's view, with the Central Army's intelligence and reconnaissance capabilities near Shangqiu, they would definitely not be unaware that the little devil was sending more troops near Shangqiu.But even if they knew it, the Central Army didn't seem to pay much attention to this direction.

He Zhengdao, who entered the territory of Shangqiu, found a valley to camp and rest, then thought for a while and said, "Give power to the first division, and tell it to secretly gather at Taihe and Jieshou in Fuyang from tonight.

For the remaining troops of the reconnaissance brigade, one unit was kept on guard in Xinyang, and the rest marched secretly to the direction of Guoyang.At the same time, Li Xiangdong was ordered to dispatch an elite team to check the water regime in the Yellow Flooding Area.

In the event of bad weather, let our troops proceed with the utmost care.If the weather conditions are good recently, send the main force of the reconnaissance brigade to Lanfeng as much as possible to wait for the next combat order.

At the same time, closely monitor the actions of the Japanese army in Shangqiu, once the Japanese army launches an attack on Zhengzhou.All troops must build blocking and fortifications behind the little devil in the shortest possible time.

Without my order, no troops are allowed to conduct major operations without my order.As for the task of harassing the Japanese army's transporting supplies, it can be handed over to the guerrilla brigades, and the various units of the reconnaissance brigade can only do coordinated work and are not allowed to go to war without authorization.

If the little devil really plans to launch a general offensive in the direction of Shangqiu, the third division will be responsible for the resistance behind the enemy lines in Xinyang.The little devil's two divisions stationed in Xinyang, if they rush towards Zhumadian, they must also be prepared to encircle and block them. "

According to He Zhengdao's vision, it doesn't matter which direction the little devil launches his attack from.As long as they really wanted to capture Zhengzhou and encircle the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Shaanxi, He Zhengdao would not allow their plot to succeed.

Judging from the current situation, the Japanese army may deploy about three divisions of offensive troops in Zhengzhou.If his troops in Xinyang can contain a Japanese division, the troops of the 117th Division can also contain a division.

At that time, the two main divisions transferred from the North China Theater will only need to deal with one division of the Japanese army, and it will be relatively easier to fight that way.Even as long as the plan is good, He Zhengdao can still look forward to encircling and wiping out one or two divisions of little devils.

He Zhengdao believed that as long as the Japanese troops were sent to Zhengzhou to wipe out one or two divisions.Next, the Japanese troops stationed in central China must not dare to act rashly.If you want to gather heavy troops again, I'm afraid it won't be that easy!

After issuing these combat orders, He Zhengdao continued: "Give power to the headquarters and the central government, and inform the current situation of the Japanese army's secret assembly of troops in Shangqiu. At the same time, let the headquarters pay close attention to the deployment of Jiang Dingwen's troops.

If possible, it is recommended that the two main divisions, in the form of small units, infiltrate the area bordering the Central Army in advance and stand by.Once the central army retreats, our army will be able to take over the defense of the abandoned area in time. "

Accompanied by the sound of the telegram, it was transmitted to all units of the New 67th Army. The first division who received the order naturally felt very happy.After all, they can serve as the vanguard and advance into Anhui first to stand by.

As the commander of the first division, Zhang Cheng also said with a smile when he convened the combat meeting of the division headquarters: "The commander's telegram is here! Next, our first division will be the vanguard and first arrive at the area bordering Anhui and Henan. standby.

According to the old rules, the troops still adopt the marching method of lying down at night and going out at night.I would rather make a detour, but also keep the secret of our trip.The area where the troops are assembled, I will send them to the regiments at that time, and then you will arrange the deployment of the troops by yourself.

If the expectations are good, then we will have a real joint operation with other combat forces at the headquarters.If the next battle is fought well, Henan, which was previously controlled by the Central Army, will also become our base.

With this forward position, our future operations against Shandong, Hubei, Anhui and other places will become relatively easier.If it is even possible, we can push the main force of the troops under the eyes of the little devil. "

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, a group leader asked: "Master, are we going to recover Henan? Lao Jiang is really willing to give up Henan? Although Henan suffered a catastrophe this year, there are still many places where food can be grown. That is Where is the granary of the Central Army?"

Zhang Cheng shook his head in response to the head's question and said, "I'm not very clear about the specific situation. But judging from the commander's order, this must be an advance preparation for the war.

Although I really want to deal with the little devils currently in Xinyang, these little devils are still very cautious.Then we will not play here, and move to the rear of the little devil in advance.Once the little devil launches an attack on Zhengzhou, we will hit him hard on the flank.

No matter what Lao Jiang's plan is, if the little devil is really serious this time, they probably won't stick to it.What's more, at present, Chiang's First Army has already controlled some important military towns on the border between Hubei and Henan.

Thinking about it, they may have made this preparation long ago, abandoning the line from Zhengzhou to Shaanxi, so that the soldiers of the little devils can directly reach our noses.What kind of wishful thinking are they playing, how can we do nothing?

As long as they dare to give up the territory between Zhengzhou and Shaanxi, we will take him over.At that time, we will fight on two fronts ourselves, and let the little devils and the people see how strong our Eighth Route Army's combat effectiveness is. "

The combat meeting of the first division was soon declared complete.The officers and soldiers of the first division who had rested for nearly a month in the Xinyang mountain area, in addition to supplementing some recruits transferred from the reserve force, their combat effectiveness has also recovered a lot.

Nesting in the mountains every day, for these relatively belligerent officers and soldiers of the first division, they still feel somewhat uncomfortable.Right now, the troops are assembled and ordered. From top to bottom, every soldier is screaming, ready to go to the front line again.

On the other hand, Boss Zhu, who is in Xi'an at the moment, is looking at the telegram sent by He Zhengdao.He was also very surprised and said: "This kid is fast enough! At this time, he even ran to Shangqiu. That is now the rear of the little devil!"

Hearing this, Boss Peng smiled and said, "That kid has always been more courageous. If he hadn't been going back to Yan'an for a meeting during this trip, I guess he would have thought about making trouble for the little devil!"

Zuo Quan, who was standing at the side, answered in a timely manner: "Boss, I think you should send him a telegram and warn him not to act rashly. After all, he only has some security forces around him, and his actions must not be leaked.

If you really want to let the little devil know that he is in Shangqiu at this time, it is estimated that the little devil will come out and search for him.Our red warrior is already a must-kill target for little devils.Don't be impulsive! "

'Zuo Quan's words make sense!Waiting for my order, put a curse on this kid, tell him not to stay in Shangqiu, and go to the base of the 117th Division as soon as possible.Tell him to come back quickly, I'm still waiting to drink his wedding wine! '

Thinking of He Zhengdao, even if he is the leader of an army now, his belligerent character still hasn't changed much.Speaking of it, all the units of the independent column seem to be more aggressive now.The more difficult the battle, the more excited they were.

This time, if the little devil really attacks Zhengzhou and the Central Army abandons Zhengzhou again.In Mr. Zhu's opinion, the two main divisions deployed by the headquarters at that time will mostly adopt a defensive and blocking combat method.

As for the attack, it is estimated that He Zhengdao's troops will be launched from the rear with the 117th Division commanded by Xu Xiangqian.Under attack from both sides, the Japanese army had to give up the idea of ​​occupying Henan and withdraw from Henan.

Only in this way can the Eighth Route Army take over these occupied areas as soon as possible.And before the Central Army reacts, try to occupy Zhengzhou as much as possible.In this way, the Eighth Route Army will have the final say in Henan in the future.
