If it weren't for the weapons and ammunition stored earlier, I'm afraid the New 67th Army would not be able to persist until now.After all, the pressure on the New 67th Army can be imagined when dealing with the double attack of the Japanese army!

In response to what Luo Ruiqing said, Xiao Jinguang also had a headache and said: "Yes! During this time, the little devils seem to have become smarter. Many of their troops participating in the attack did not carry too many weapons and ammunition.

As well as our combat troops, there are not many ammunition that can be captured.Originally, we could still attack the little devil's supply line, but the little devil was also ruthless.Once the current materials cannot be kept, the materials will be blown up directly and will not be left to us.

Staying here, no way out of the village or shop, we have no source of ammunition at all.Most of the weapons and ammunition provided by the headquarters are also supplied to the troops in Zhengzhou.Even if the headquarters has ammunition, they can't deliver it! "

Originally, the Eighth Route Army could transport materials from Nanyang earlier, but as the Eighth Route Army entered Henan and successively recovered Zhengzhou, Kaifeng and other places, the Nationalist Army naturally would not let the Eighth Route Army's transport team go as before.

In this case, even if the Yan'an side protested to the Nationalist government, the Nationalist government ignored it.After all, everyone knew that Lao Jiang didn't want to see the Eighth Route Army go too smoothly, and deliberately used this method to consume the strength of the Eighth Route Army!

The longer the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army fought in the Central Plains, it would undoubtedly be a better opportunity for the Nationalist Army who urgently needed time to rest.As for the new 67th Army in the Dabie Mountains area, he hoped that it would be hit hard.

Only in this way, when they regain Wuhan in the future, they will not have to worry about the threat of the new 67th Army.Faced with this helpless situation, Xiao Jinguang also felt very helpless and angry.

'If only the commander was here! '

Xiao Jinguang, who said this unknowingly, also felt that after becoming this military commander, he found that the army was not easy to lead.It can even be said that he feels ashamed of He Zhengdao's trust when the troops are organized into what they are now.

After all, when He Zhengdao left, he entrusted him with the new 67th Army, which had always been strong and well-stocked with ammunition.But right now, the New 67th Army is indeed facing many disadvantages!

'Why don't you send him a telegram and ask him if he has any strategies to defeat the enemy.This guy has a lot of ghost ideas, maybe he has some good ideas.If the troops are really wiped out, it will be difficult for us to see him in the future! '

As the chief of staff, Luo Ruiqing also believed in the joyful feeling of fighting with He Zhengdao, but he couldn't say much in front of Xiao Jinguang.After all, Xiao Jinguang is the commander of the new 67th Army right now, so he must save some face for others! (To be continued.)

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

During the war years, the victorious generals are often worshiped and admired, and they are also the most loved by ordinary soldiers.For many young people who join the army, they like to follow the troops of General Changsheng.

Because entering such an army not only has the opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service, but more importantly, there is more hope of surviving.After all, war is ruthless, and every battle will take away many living lives.

Following a general or commander who can win battles will also increase a lot of hope of surviving the battlefield.In the Eighth Route Army, He Zhengdao was undoubtedly a victorious general in the eyes of many ordinary soldiers, a general worth following.

As for Xiao Jinguang, who succeeded Commander He Zhengdao, many officers and soldiers knew that he was an old political commissar.It is somewhat strange to change from a political commissar to an army commander now.After all, the Eighth Route Army is a unit under the political commissar responsibility system.

In many cases, political commissars have greater power than army commanders.Even during the current war, the prestige of the division commander in the army is often higher than that of the political commissar.But among the top ranks of the military, political commissars often represent the party.

The principle of the party commanding the guns is still not allowed to be shaken.Now that Xiao Jinguang has changed from a political commissar to an army commander, it makes people feel that he has been demoted and appointed.But some people think that this is Xiao Jinguang's high hopes from Yan'an and the headquarters.

Even if the person who is also serving as the political commissar now is Liu Shaoqi, the secretary of the Central China Bureau.But the military department and the main division commanders all know that Xiao Jinguang has the final say on the affairs of the new 67th Army, and he can also be regarded as the political commissar and army commander.

Although Zhang Cheng and others don't quite understand why He Zhengdao made such a decision.But after receiving the telegram from He Zhengdao, they still respected He Zhengdao's choice, and also understood that this was the army, not someone's one-acre three-point land.

Although the independent column and the new 67th army in front of us are all troops pulled together by He Zhengdao.But Zhang Cheng and others also know that He Zhengdao is not the kind of general who likes to form a party for personal gain and support his own self-respect.

On the contrary, after Xiao Jinguang returned, He Zhengdao specially sent a telegram to the three main division commanders, asking them to cooperate with Xiao Jinguang's work, and at the same time appease the emotional veterans of each division, those military and political backbones who came out of the independent column.

All actions are subject to command, which is also the rule that He Zhengdao has always emphasized.He Zhengdao also does not allow anyone to destroy the party's principle of commanding guns.Even when he was in office, he also respected and supported the work of Xiao Jinguang, the political commissar.

Now the New 67th Army has been unable to open up the situation for a long time, so it can only bite the bullet and block the continuous reinforcements from the Japanese army from Wuhan.At the same time, we must also deal with the little devils who did not leave in Zhumadian and began to attack the New 67th Army from both sides. dudu1

It's just that as the war continued, the New 67th Army also began to feel tremendous pressure.In addition to the constant consumption of weapons, ammunition and supplies, the wounded soldiers who are transferred to the rear every day also pose a heavy burden to the New 67th Army.

Although in Yulin right now, there are some special medicines that can be produced by themselves.But such drug consumption is also a huge burden.At present, the export of medicines is actually a major income for Yan'an.

It is a matter of course that all the medicines produced are used to rescue the wounded in the army.But such an approach will undoubtedly affect the economic income of Yan'an, and will also delay the capital investment in other areas.

Although I hope that the headquarters can send more reinforcements to the New 67th Army, Xiao Jinguang and others know that it is actually quite difficult for the Eighth Route Army to open up two battlefields.Now entering the Henan battlefield, there are actually two new infantry divisions.

After all, the strength of the Eighth Route Army has grown rapidly, but there are still deficiencies in its foundation.In addition, more weapons and ammunition came from seizures, which is also an important reason for restricting the Eighth Route Army.

It is also true that Yan'an has also begun to consider replacing some troops with self-produced weapons and equipment.In this way, it may also reduce the logistical pressure on the troops.On the other hand, this is another expensive expense.

After all, it is not an easy task to replace equipment for an army.At present, the Eighth Route Army already has more than 50 troops. How can it be easy to replace these troops with self-produced equipment!

Xiao Jinguang, who understood that this deadlock must be broken as soon as possible, actually thought about asking He Zhengdao for advice.At least in his opinion, He Zhengdao is younger than them, and many ideas and combat modes are very different.

Now the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army are fighting in Henan, and more of them are offensive and defensive tactics.Although the commanders of each unit will make some tactical deployments.But no matter what, in this kind of large corps battle, it is difficult to reverse the overall situation.

Perhaps it was Luo Ruiqing's suggestion that finally made Xiao Jinguang smile bitterly: "Okay, for this sake, I don't think there is anything to be ashamed of. If he really has a good way, it will be easier for us to see him in the future."

For the New 67th Army, He Zhengdao is undoubtedly the pioneer, while Xiao Jinguang is the defender.As the defender and the pioneer of the New 67th Army, Xiao Jinguang naturally hopes to break this deadlock as soon as possible. dudu2

If it continues, Xiao Jinguang is also very worried that the New 67th Army will suffer heavy losses.In this way, the good situation established by He Zhengdao earlier may be destroyed.Then it's really hard for him to explain to He Zhengdao!

After all, it was He Zhengdao's recommendation that he could become the commander of the army and even serve as some political commissars.If he can defend Chengdu and fail to do well, Xiao Jinguang will also feel ashamed of himself, and I am afraid that he will have no face to see He Zhengdao in the future.

Accompanying Luo Ruiqing to draft a telegram and send it to He Zhengdao, Ye Jianying who came to send the telegram also smiled and said: "Commander, it seems that even if you are no longer in the New 67th Army, Lao Xiao and Lao Luo still read the telegram. I'm following you!"

He Zhengdao, who had read the telegram, was also a little surprised and said: "During this time, I really haven't paid much attention to the situation in the Henan battlefield. Chief of Staff, tell me what you know! Boss Peng probably hasn't forwarded it for a while What's going on at the front?"

'I think Boss Peng should also know that you are now in charge of the war in Shanxi, so he doesn't want to put too much pressure on you!However, now that Lao Xiao and the others have sent a telegram, the situation of the new 67th Army is indeed not optimistic.

Indeed, with only two main divisions, it is really difficult to resist the main force of the Japanese army from Zhumadian and Wuhan.The most important thing is that the main force of the national army is watching from the sidelines.If they can send troops, this situation will also be broken. '

Listening to Ye Jianying's words, He Zhengdao sneered and said, "If they could send troops, why would they wait until now? How could they miss this opportunity to kill the enemy and weaken our strength? It's better to count on them Figure out a way for yourself!

Chief of Staff, please give me the latest information about the battlefield in Henan. For the latest situation, send a telegram to Boss Peng and Boss Zuo, and ask them to send me a message for my reference! "

Perhaps in the eyes of others, He Zhengdao's actions are somewhat meddling.But Ye Jianying believes that Boss Peng and the others also hope to have a solution to end this situation of confrontation between the two armies and continuous fighting as soon as possible.

When Ye Jianying sent the telegram to Boss Peng, Zuo Quan who received the telegram also smiled and said: "It seems that Xiao He should know about the new 67th Army, and he will ask us for the latest information! Boss, you What do you think?"

'Send him a detailed battlefield information, this kid is very good at fighting, and can often find out where the little devil is deadly.If he can really come up with a strategy to defeat the enemy, why not let him show off some of the limelight! 'dudu3

As the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, Boss Peng served as the commander-in-chief of the Henan campaign, in fact, because of He Zhengdao's love.If He Zhengdao does not step down as the commander of the New 67th Army, He Zhengdao should also be the commander of the Henan Campaign.

After all, all the preparatory work for the former Eighth Route Army was actually planned by He Zhengdao.Including the joint operations of various troops, it was also facilitated by He Zhengdao.After all, Boss Peng also owes He Zhengdao a favor.

Now that the Shanxi campaign is coming to an end, the Henan campaign is getting bigger and bigger, and Boss Peng also feels a lot of pressure.After all, Yan'an and the headquarters are not rich, and they don't want to continue to delay the war.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the Eighth Route Army's campaign in Henan has also achieved remarkable results.With these victories, Yan'an and the headquarters are equally satisfied.Not to mention, they also eliminated many little devils in this battle.

They even took back some cities bordering Shanxi.In this way, their strategic frontiers in North China and Central China will undoubtedly take another step forward. Given a little more time to develop, those base areas will also be reborn in the future.

Following the telegram sent by Henan Qianzhi to He Zhengdao's headquarters, he watched the confrontation between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army.He Zhengdao felt that the final breaking point should be the Japanese army in Zhumadian.

Doihara, the old devil, has to be said to be a Chinese hand.He knew very well that they were stationed in Zhumadian at the moment, they didn't need to worry too much about the main force of the Nationalist Army in Nanyang, they only needed to deal with the Eighth Route Army with all their strength.

With such speculation, the No. 18 Division that Doihara merged with him, and the No. 13 Division, an infantry brigade that was temporarily annexed by him, did fight very well in Zhumadian, preventing the Eighth Route Army's offensive troops from breaking through.

The Japanese troops from Wuhan were also attacking the Eighth Route Army armed forces in the Dabie Mountains.As the base of the New 67th Army today, the Xinyang area is also a key area for the Japanese army to attack.

From the perspective of the Japanese army, as long as the New 67th Army stationed in Xinyang is defeated, the communication channel from Wuhan to Zhumadian will be opened.They may be able to switch from defense to offense, re-enter Henan, and continue to advance the front to the vicinity of Zhengzhou.

After He Zhengdao studied the map for a long time, he finally came up with a strategy to defeat the enemy.After discussing with Ye Jianying, the chief of staff also brightened up and said: "This plan is implemented, it is really possible to reverse the situation!"

While saying these words, Ye Jianying also really realized that He Zhengdao was indeed more thoughtful and bolder than them in terms of finding fighter opportunities and arranging battle plans.He will never miss any war resource that can be used! (To be continued.)
